Chapter 114 Abandoned Villa

Chapter 114 Abandoned Villa
This time the pursuit was much easier than the last time.

Fayuan was really running for his life this time. He ran in a panic and hurry and had no time to hide his traces or create an illusion.

Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan were always hanging far behind him and could not even see Fayuan's figure. They could only track him based on the traces he left when he escaped.

"Why don't you follow more closely?" Qiu Chan asked in a low voice, "I'm always worried about losing you."

Fu Qingzhou shook his head: "Why don't you think about why he was able to 'wake up' after we left?"

Qiu Chan frowned slightly, then relaxed: "He can sense us within a certain range?"

"That's my guess, but it's pretty close."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "His previous self-isolation was real isolation, otherwise his body's reaction to pain would not be so low. He may not be able to hear what we said, but he must have a way to sense that we temporarily left a certain distance from him."

"Only if we are far enough away from him will he be confident enough to struggle out and escape with his seriously injured body." Qiu Chan took over the conversation and nodded.

Therefore, there is no need to say the final conclusion - if the two chased too closely at this time, Fayuan would most likely notice something was wrong and would not lead them to his hiding place.

So the two of them just hung there from a distance, following all the way.

Less than half an hour later, the traces faded, and the outline of a building appeared in the forest ahead. When I looked closer, I saw that it was a villa surrounded by vines and tall weeds.

"So close?" Qiu Chan was a little surprised.

Fu Qingzhou also narrowed his eyes and said, "It's really dark under the lamp... Who would have thought that there is a big den of thieves hiding so close to the edge of Wanshi Town?"

Judging from the outside, this villa has obviously been abandoned for a very long time. There are even small trees growing in the cracks between the wall tiles. The gate is hanging crookedly on the door frame and has long been moldy.

"Do you have any plans?" Qiu Chan said, having already drawn the soft sword from her waist: "Or are you just going to charge in like this?"

Fu Qingzhou also untied the bow and held it in his hand, his eyes slightly stern: "Go straight in, they never thought that outsiders would come in here, and now they don't even know that we are here. Speed ​​is of the essence in war, and waiting too long will only lead to changes."

After saying that, he took the lead, kicked open the tattered wooden door, and strode in.

Qiu Chan smiled, picked up her sword and followed.

After entering the villa, the two of them immediately noticed the changes keenly - although the large courtyard at the entrance was also overgrown with weeds and tangled trees, a path was still trampled out on the seemingly messy grass, which was clearly made by someone who had been trampling on it repeatedly recently.

It was still late at night, and it was almost pitch dark in the silent abandoned villa, but both of them were warriors with their pupils opened, and with the help of the starlight, they could see everything clearly.

Among the weeds, there were many large pieces of bones and bloodstains.

"It seems they have killed a lot of people here." There was a hint of murderous intent in Fu Qingzhou's eyes.

Qiu Chan cautiously jumped onto the rockery in the dry pond in the courtyard. After taking advantage of the high ground to look around, she whispered, "It seems there are no guards."

Fu Qingzhou shook his head: "There are not many signs of activity in the courtyard or outside here. There should be very few people in the villa. Fayuan came here seriously injured, and the people guarding here must treat him."

Qiu Chan sneered: "That's a good way to catch them all!"

The two of them stopped talking and strode deeper into the villa.

This villa is not big. It should have been a holiday villa for some wealthy family. But I don't know which rich person with a brain built the villa in this deep mountain forest.

Of course, if we think of the worst, perhaps the person who first built the villa had ill intentions and wanted to deliberately conceal his tracks.

After all, there is not even a proper mountain road around this villa, so it is indeed very difficult to find.

We walked around the courtyard and explored several houses, but there was no one there. However, we still found some signs of life. The most obvious was the signs of cooking in the kitchen. Judging from the big pots and food waste, it was clear that the kitchen had supplied food for at least a dozen people.

"Didn't you say that there aren't many people here?" Qiu Chan looked at the ingredients in the kitchen, and her hand holding the sword tightened clearly.

Fu Qingzhou was not nervous, but laughed: "There are not many people in the villa, but there is so much food... Don't you understand?"

Qiu Chan finally reacted: "There are many people imprisoned here!" "Yes."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Perhaps we can find those imprisoned people first and use them to create chaos. This way, we will have a better chance of winning."

After hearing his words, Qiu Chan immediately closed her eyes.

Just like Fu Qingzhou had done before when he was using his internal energy to concentrate his ears, she pricked up her ears and listened carefully to what was going on around her.

But the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes and stared at the kitchen wall: "Someone!"

At the same time, with a loud bang, the dilapidated brick wall collapsed on the spot, and a figure suddenly appeared, rushing over with a raging palm wind!

Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan were shocked. This person's realm was quite high, and yet they were unaware of him being so close!

In a flash, the two had no choice but to fight at the same time. Qiu Chan waved her palm to block the attack, while Fu Qingzhou held up a large bow to take it.

With two ping-ping sounds, a huge force came upon them, and both of them were knocked back several steps.

"Hey wait?!"

Fu Qingzhou saw the person in front of him clearly: "Brother Wu?!"

The people who broke through the wall wanted to fight again, but they stopped after hearing this sound and tilted their heads: "Huh?! It's you?"

Yes, this person is Wu Changfeng.

But he looked a little embarrassed at this time, as if something was stuck on his eyes, making him unable to open them; not only that, the left half of his face including the ear was covered in blood.

Seeing this, Fu Qingzhou not only did not relax, but frowned tightly and clenched the bow: "Brother Wu, are you fighting with Fa Zheng?!"

"Yes."

Wu Changfeng gritted his teeth and said, "I chased that bastard and fought him all the way. He tricked me several times. My eyes were poisoned and one of my ears was deafened. Where the hell is this? Why are you here?"

Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan looked at each other, and there was no longer any relaxation in their eyes.

The fact that Wu Changfeng came here means that Fa Zheng has most likely returned to the villa.

"Brother Wu, this is where Fa Zheng and the others are hiding."

Qiu Chan whispered, "We just made quite a noise. They must have noticed it. They will either attack us or run away..."

"Strike first is the strongest!"

Before she could finish, Wu Changfeng shouted, "Lead the way, kill them!"

Fu Qingzhou responded and rushed out of the kitchen first.

Almost at the same time, three monks rushed out from the moon gate of a courtyard less than ten feet away.

They were none other than Fa Zheng, Fa Yuan, and another monk whom he had never seen before.

The monk supported the half-dead Fayuan, and Fazheng was leading the way. At this time, Fazheng was obviously also seriously injured. His right arm hung limply at his side, probably because of a broken bone. There was also a large amount of blood at the corner of his mouth, most likely he had internal injuries.

The two groups met without any warning.

"What's wrong? Why did you stop?"

Wu Changfeng asked in a rough voice behind him, then he tilted his head and listened carefully, his face immediately became ferocious: "Fa Zheng! Found you!"

After saying that, he couldn't wait any longer and rushed forward with both palms raised!
"Go!" Fu Qingzhou also shouted, and immediately bent his bow and drew his arrow. When the string sounded, Qiu Chan turned into a shadow and passed by him, rushing to the opposite side!
