Chapter 117 Escape
"Senior. Senior"
Seeing his hands suddenly drop and no movement, Song Qingming hurried forward to check, only to find that the aura of this senior had completely dissipated, and this time his soul really returned to the underworld.
In just a short moment, Song Qingming's heart experienced a lot of ups and downs.
After picking up this person by the river, he thought he was involved in a difficult trouble this time. Later, he saw this person suddenly wake up. Although Song Qingming was a little scared, he was still very glad that he could finally get rid of this problem. Unexpectedly, he died in front of him before he could say a word. Song Qingming was really dumbfounded this time, and his heart was also very depressed.
This person was so seriously injured, and he ran into the deep mountains. It might be that he was chased by enemies on the way. It seems that this place is not safe. If his enemies see that he has seen her, he will definitely suffer. Thinking of this, Song Qingming quickly collected the storage bag and the jade box on his body, and hastily buried his body in a pile of gravel at the foot of the mountain.
"Don't blame me, senior. Now the situation is dangerous, and I can't stay here for long. I will go to Xiaoyao Sect to report this matter one day, and then I will collect your body. I hope that your spirit in heaven will protect me so that I can get out smoothly this time."
After bowing his head to pay tribute to this senior, Song Qingming quickly turned around and left here.
Song Qingming had just walked for less than an hour when three foundation-building cultivators found the river on flying swords.
One of the handsome young men looked carefully at the riverside and said to the other man and woman next to him: "Yes, the breath is indeed here. It seems that he can't hold on and has been poisoned. That's why he wants to use the river water to cover up and escape our pursuit."
"No matter what, we must not let him escape alive, otherwise once the sect knows about this, everyone will be in big trouble." The speaker was the foundation-building woman among the three. She was wearing a veil on her face and her appearance could not be seen clearly.
After hearing this, the young man suddenly laughed and said: "It is Brother Hu who is in big trouble. The two of us are not from Weiguo. Even if Xiaoyao Sect knows about this in the future, the worst thing is to stay away from Weiguo. But Brother Hu, you conspired with us to kill the foundation-building cultivator of Xiaoyao Sect in order to covet the spiritual object on that person. I'm afraid there will be no place for you in Weiguo in the future. Brother, you are not regretting it now, right?"
The woman looked at him with displeasure and continued: "Since it has already happened, what's the use of regretting now? I'm afraid This person has already escaped and attracted the Xiaoyao Sect monks. It will be difficult for us to escape. "
"Hehe, this person has been hit by our Sky Poison Palm, and he will definitely not be able to leave this mountain. Fellow Daoist Hu, don't worry too much. It's just that the monsters are rioting now, and there are traces of monsters everywhere in this mountain. I'm afraid that if his body enters the monster's belly after his death and disappears, our plans will be in vain. "The last older old man comforted the two and sighed as he looked at the dark mountain in the night sky.
After thinking for a while, the young man said, "Now that things have come to this, let's not waste any more time. Fellow Daoist Hu, you go upstream, Senior Brother Xue, go downstream, I will check around. No matter whether he is dead or alive, send a message immediately after finding him. We will meet here in three days. Whether we can find him or not, we must leave Weiguo as soon as possible."
The other two nodded in agreement with his opinion. A white light flashed at the scene, and the three people disappeared quickly
Song Qingming had only run a few dozen miles away when he saw a sword light suddenly escape in the sky. Song Qingming immediately used the breath-holding technique to hide under a big tree nearby.
The sword light in the sky circled around a few times, but did not find anything. It soon disappeared from his sight. Song Qingming then stood up and ran desperately south.
After Song Qingming saw the sword light just now, he suddenly became nervous again. It was obvious that the person in the sky was coming for the deceased Xiaoyao Sect senior. If he wanted to survive, he had to use the moonlight to get away from here quickly. Otherwise, when the day dawned, without the cover of the night, it would be difficult for him to hide his whereabouts.
After walking a few miles forward, Song Qingming suddenly saw a low-level monster with its belly dug up lying next to a big tree in the forest. Song Qingming was about to go forward to take a look, but he didn't expect that the sword light in the sky just now turned back from the front and flew over his head. He was so scared that he quickly stopped where he was and stood there motionless, not daring to make any more noise.
Fortunately, this time the other party just passed by here and did not see Song Qingming under the cover of the night. He soon disappeared in the air again, but Song Qingming below was really scared and broke into a cold sweat. When he saw the sword light disappear, he didn't care about the monster anymore and quickly quickened his pace to bypass it and ran south.
Without stopping, he ran southward for hundreds of miles until a ray of white light appeared in the eastern sky. Song Qingming stopped and found a tree trunk to rest for a while.
After running so far, he finally had some time to catch his breath. The night's running had consumed most of his mana. He quickly took out two spirit stones to restore his mana. He was really tired after running for several days.
Two hours later, Song Qingming, who had almost recovered, set out again to go south to bypass the monster army, and then go east to Huoyun Mountain to find the old patriarch and his people.
After walking for half a day, Song Qingming unexpectedly saw a fight coming from the front. When he got closer, he found that a team of Qi Refining cultivators were fighting with several low-level monsters. These people seemed to be local family cultivators in Pingyang County.
Song Qingming stretched out his hand and summoned a flying sword from his storage bag. He rushed into the battlefield from the side and soon killed a hapless golden-backed ape with one sword.
This team of cultivators had more people than the monsters they were fighting, and they had already gained the upper hand. The monsters were already a little bit overwhelmed, and with Song Qingming's sudden joining, these monsters soon lost to the cultivators and began to turn around and flee.
The battle had just ended. An old man with a white beard and a round face came forward and bowed to Song Qingming, saying, "I am Lu Demiao from the Lu family of Jinfeng Mountain in Pingyang County. Thank you for your help just now. There are monsters everywhere around here. I wonder where you are going."
Song Qingming raised his hand in return and said, "You are too polite, senior. We are all cultivators of the human race. Since we have met you, we naturally have to help you. I am a cultivator from Qinghe County. I was originally summoned to support Huoyun Mountain. When I attacked Jinshanfang a few days ago, I was dispersed by monsters with my team. I was just about to take a detour back to Huoyun Mountain."
"So you are also going to Huoyun Mountain. We have also received orders from the master to go to Huoyun Mountain to support. You may as well come with us so that we can take care of you on the way." Seeing that Song Qingming and they were going to the same destination, Lu Demiao simply invited him to go with them.
When Song Qingming heard that these people were also going to Huoyun Mountain for support, he was immediately delighted and agreed.
"Okay, to be honest, I'm not very familiar with the terrain around here. I've been wandering in the mountains for a few days to avoid monsters. Fortunately, I happened to meet you today."
