Chapter 275 Reason Part One
The convoy gradually moved away, passing through the forest beside Jing Xuanzong along the way, everything was calm and there seemed to be no disturbance.
But Lin Xin was able to see the great changes that had taken place here from the Red Ridge Sect members stationed nearby.
After driving for three days in a row, he finally made a detour from Jingxuanzong.
The front is the area under the jurisdiction of Jingxuanzong, which belonged to the forest land where their disciples tried. Now that the sect has been destroyed, this place is probably deserted.
There was no one in the forest, and the convoy felt horrified as it moved slowly in it.
"How long is it until Naxi?"
Lin Xin asked Xiao Liu casually.
"Sir, it's estimated that there are still five days to go. As long as we get through it, we should be fine." Xiao Liu replied in a low voice while observing his surroundings vigilantly.
The people in the team were all quiet, and no one spoke loudly, as if they were afraid of disturbing some ferocious beasts in the surrounding forest.
"Five days?" Lin Xin also had an idea in his mind.
At noon, the sky was gray and a little dark.
The team stopped to build a fire to cook and rest.
Lin Xin got off his horse and prepared to take out some dry food from his pack to eat.
"Sir, this is for you." Xiao Liu quickly brought a bowl of hot broth from the carriage in front, with mushrooms, ginger and shallots in it, and the smell made the index finger move.
Lin Xin took it over.
"Thank you."
"Mr. is a scholar. He is sick and weak. If he eats poorly, he may not even be able to walk. Take care of your body." Xiao Liu scratched his head and smiled.
Taking a sip of the broth lightly, Lin Xin smiled and said.
"I know, I know, don't worry, I will pay attention to it after a long illness becomes a good doctor."
"Okay, then I'll go eat something first." Xiao Liu also nodded.
"go Go."
Little Six saw him drinking the broth slowly. Then he turned and headed towards the carriage.
Lin Xin looked at him chatting and laughing with his teammates. It seemed that he was also the target of bullying among the team members, and he always had a naive expression on his face. Can't help shaking his head slightly.
During the journey these days, Xiao Liu has been taking care of him a lot, in fact, he has seen it all. The little guy respects all the scholars who have read the book. When they heard who had attended a private school, there was a look of awe in their eyes. In such troubled times, there are only a few people who can receive education. If many people have never traveled far, they will be simple all their lives, without any scheming or complicated thoughts.
Without thinking too much, Lin Xin shook off his inexplicable thoughts, and saw the girl leading the team turn around and walk towards him.
The girl changed her clothes, wearing a white fur coat on her upper body, and tight gray and black pantyhose on her lower body. There are two short fish skin knives pinned to the thighs. The curves are round and well-proportioned. Looking at it in a daze, it gives people a kind of naked sexiness that seems to be without pants.
Fortunately, she was also wearing a short gray skirt. Cover the area between the thighs so that the pants don't get too tight and show off.
"The front is the territory of Shanlang Village. If Jingxuanzong was still normal before, we would have passed without any problem. But now..." the girl Ling'er said in a deep voice, "Sir, if you turn around now, there is still time. Otherwise Get started in a while. We can't take care of you either."
Lin Xin smiled lightly.
"It's okay, go ahead, I can take care of myself."
Ling'er was only able to persuade her again out of good intentions. Seeing that Lin Xin did not cry when she saw the coffin, she didn't talk nonsense.
"That being the case, sir, be careful."
"understand."
"Miss, don't worry! I will look for opportunities to take care of Mr." Xiao Liu leaned over and patted his chest.
"You? Xiao Liu, you can only force him to protect himself and take care of him." Ling'er said helplessly.
"Miss, you look down on people too much. Anyway, I won the fourth place in the last martial arts competition!" Xiao Liu blushed suddenly, and he took a peek at Lin Xin, as if he didn't want to be underestimated in front of someone he valued. Immediately, he patted his chest again. "Besides, I also have my own trump card!"
Ling'er was immediately amused by him, her towering chest swayed back and forth, and the flowers and branches trembled wildly. Immediately, the men in the surrounding guards all unconsciously glanced over here.
After working hard all day in other places, every way to relax, even the most tolerant man, who has just accumulated blood, can't help but look at it a few more times.
Ling'er also noticed her gaze, and unconsciously tightened her coat.
"Okay, okay, I'll pay attention to you then."
She let out a breath, turned around and wanted to leave, but after walking a few steps, she hesitated, and looked back at Lin Xin's emaciated and bandaged condition, after all, she couldn't bear it, so she turned around again.
"That's all, a good man will do it to the end, sir, come with me."
"Girl, this is...?" Lin Xin asked suspiciously. Follow her to the front of the line.
The two soon arrived at the side of the carriage, which was the core position of the entire team and also the safest place, and the fifth uncle who led the team was not far ahead. Seeing Linger bring Lin Xin to a safe place, he just frowned and didn't say anything.
"You just stay here. If you have any troubles, you can get into the carriage by yourself. It will be safer if there is a barrier." Ling'er reminded.
"Thank you, Miss Ling'er." Lin Xin also cupped his hands in thanks, after all, it was best for him not to do anything, as hallucinations and corruption would become more serious with his murderous thoughts and aura.
After lunch, the convoy continued to move forward. Lin Xin was in the middle of the convoy, surrounded by bodyguards, and next to the carriage with darts, it was the safest position.
Along the way, except for a few small animals popping out suddenly, and a bodyguard at the side caught a boa constrictor, there were no other troubles.
When they were about to pass through this forest area, all the bodyguards breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. The people in Shanlang Village probably didn't dare to come out because they saw the people from the Chiji Gate.
Lin Xin glanced sideways at a bodyguard beside him.
This is an old bodyguard over half a century old, wearing a black leather armor with a lot of throwing knives and darts densely inserted into it.
He was listening carefully to the movements around him with a serious face, and his hand was always on a dart on his body.
"Don't take it lightly, this is still the area of Shanlangzhai, relax and rest after it's over." Uncle Wu raised his voice.
Lin Xin looked in another direction, and Linger, one of the team leaders on the side, was holding a map in her hand. From time to time, I lower my head and compare the terrain, as if I am constantly correcting the route. The eyes of many young bodyguards around were unconsciously drifting towards her.
"It smells like blood!"
Suddenly, Uncle Wu in front stopped in his tracks and said in a deep voice.
"I'll go and have a look." An escort stopped and walked forward, turning along the dark woodland in front of him.
"Be careful, Guan Hua." Fifth Uncle warned in a low voice, "The rest are on alert."
He raised his hand.
Everyone held their breath. After waiting for a few breaths, there was a burst of shouting in front of him soon.
"Uncle Wu, Miss Ling'er, come and have a look!" It was the voice of the person who passed by earlier.
Uncle Wu and Ling'er looked at each other, and immediately rushed out, crossed the corner in a few steps, and landed on the spot where the bodyguard was standing just now.
The two looked forward. Suddenly gasped.
"This.....!" Rao Yi, with his fifth uncle's experienced experience, had to turn pale and break out in a cold sweat at this moment.
Ling'er was even more upset in her stomach, she wanted to vomit but couldn't, her face turned blue.
"Let's get out of here immediately!"
"No rush!" Fifth Uncle said in a deep voice.
He fought back his nausea. Go forward, squat down and observe carefully.
In front of them were dozens of corpses in different poses, lying on the ground in a haphazard manner. Everyone's intestines were ripped out and tied into a big knot in the middle. Attached to a stake driven into the soil.
The stake was about two meters high, and a line of writing was written on it.
'Sacrifice of the Devil Lord in Casing'
"It's a cult! Let's go! Let's go right away!" Uncle Wu's face changed slightly when he saw the words.
The three of them turned around and quickly returned to the convoy, changing direction with everyone who didn't know why. Speed forward in the forest.
But no matter how they walked, everyone always felt as if someone was following closely behind them.
Uncle Wu and Ling'er looked particularly ugly. From time to time, I looked back, but I couldn't see anything. There are only patches of deep woods and vegetation.
"Stand away from me for a while." Ling'er whispered to Lin Xin. "They must first target the leader, the closer they are to me, the more dangerous they are."
Lin Xin nodded.
He didn't dare to act casually anymore. Now, since the last time he acted, it was like a different person. Not only did he kill all his opponents, but he also killed his own people. This situation is too crazy, and it will increase the hallucinations and corruption, and doing it now will do harm but no benefit.
"Sir, if you really have martial arts skills, if you can do it in a while, please do what you can to help." Ling'er suddenly remembered something, and turned to Lin Xin.
"No problem." Lin Xin nodded in response.
At this time, everyone in the convoy almost felt an unusual aura, and there were obviously people following them around, but they never came out.
After walking forward for a while, Uncle Wu obviously felt something was wrong.
He raised his hand to signal the team to stop.
"Why Uncle Fifth!?"
"Keep going! It feels weird here."
"Uncle Wu, what happened?"
The bodyguards in the team spoke up one after another, and many experienced bodyguards already felt that something was wrong.
Uncle Wu didn't say much, but pointed forward with his hand.
"This intersection is what we walked through before."
As soon as these words came out, Ling'er's expression changed slightly, she jumped out, rushed to the corner in front, and came back soon.
"It's the sacrificial site of the sacrificial casing demon just now!" She said in a low voice with a pale face.
"really!"
Fifth Uncle managed to calm down, but his heart was already in a mess.
"The cult is alright, but it still encountered the legendary maze formation... This is a large formation that only monks and immortals can set up..."
"We can only form an formation on the spot first. Since the opponent has trapped us like this, they must have a purpose." Ling'er said quickly.
"good."
After Wu Shuwei thought about it, he straightened out his thoughts. Since he couldn't get out, it was the best way to form a defensive formation immediately.
A group of bodyguards quickly formed a circle according to the order, and just after setting it up, a group of black-clothed and masked people came out from the periphery of the surrounding forest.
"I'm waiting for Pang Dao Escort Bureau! Friends on the road, I hope it will be convenient, the money is easy to talk about, it's just for the passage!" Uncle Wu saw someone appearing, and immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands. (to be continued ~^~)
