Xuanxia

Chapter 40 Nowhere to Escape

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

In the village, Fu Qingzhou sat down on the side of the road, sweating profusely and panting heavily. His legs were shaking violently as if he had the malady and he couldn't stand up at all.

The magic Gu has lost its effect.

This is not surprising, after all, a Gu cannot work all the time, but he did not expect that after this thing lost its effect, the fatigue accumulated from running before would burst out all at once!
The village was very quiet, with only the occasional "thunder" coming from the sky.

Perhaps it was because Elder Yu and her subordinates had previously issued orders to the disciples in the village that they were not allowed to show up again no matter what happened. Therefore, despite the commotion in the sky, no Miao people left the house.

But this also means that no one can help Fu Qingzhou.

The Miao village at the foot of the mountain was brightly lit, and there must have been many Miao tenants who were attracted by the noise and came out to watch the fun, but they could not go up the mountain at will, so naturally they could not help him.

He clutched his thigh tightly, feeling his muscles twitching, feeling extremely helpless and powerless.

Why did it happen at this moment...

"Stop running."

The smoker's voice rang out: "Even if this didn't happen, you can't get away."

Fu Qingzhou gritted his teeth and responded: "What bullshit are you talking about?"

"Those two in the sky are both in the Mysterious Star Realm, and they have lit up more than one Mysterious Star." The Smoker laughed dryly, "I was just like this when I was alive... If that Long Dabei were to find you, you, a little ant, would not be able to escape no matter how hard you try."

Fu Qingzhou refuted without any hesitation: "I thought you had the power of gods and demons when you were alive, but it turns out that you can only set off firecrackers in the sky?"

"Stop being so stubborn."

The Smoker sneered, "Both of these guys are obviously injured. Long Dabei is needless to say, but what's the other one called? Ning Baimei? He has so much blood in his body that it can be used to make a pot of Maoxuewang. He must have encountered something before."

"Most likely they only have one or two skills left at this point, but no matter which one of them is, it would only take a cup of tea to kill everyone on this mountain."

"This kind of person is already a god or devil to you."

Fu Qingzhou remained silent and did not refute.

He just didn't understand how the court could govern the world with such people in it.

For example, Ning Baimei, whose Xuanxing realm is far above Dongtian and who can only exert one or two levels of strength, is so powerful. Why does he still have to be loyal to the emperor?

If a person as powerful as a god wants to dominate a region, what can ordinary people do?
Can a charge of thousands of troops kill someone like Long Dabei?

Just as he was daydreaming, a familiar female voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Brother? Brother?"

That was Tang Jiao's voice, anxious and nervous: "Brother, where are you?"

Fu Qingzhou's eyes lit up: "Tang Jiao?"

"Brother! Brother!"

Tang Jiao heard his call, and her voice suddenly became cheerful: "Where are you? Are you okay?"

"I'm here……"

Fu Qingzhou called a few more times, and Tang Jiao finally came over. Seeing him lying on the ground with his legs supported, she froze with fear, and her eyes were filled with tears: "Brother, you, your legs..."

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Fu Qingzhou smiled helplessly: "I'm just too tired, please help me."

Tang Jiao finally felt relieved and helped him stand up slowly.

But even so, the mist in her eyes still did not dissipate: "I heard a loud noise earlier, and when I went back, I found that our house had completely collapsed. Then there was a fire not far away, so I looked everywhere for you."

"But, but later someone in the village chased me away and wouldn't let me look for people on the road, so I had no choice but to hide and wait for a long, long time... It seemed like no one cared about me anymore, so I came out to look for you again, and then the sky started thundering again..."

As she spoke, she smiled and said softly, "Fortunately, we found it." Fu Qingzhou was touched.

But now was not the time to talk about this. He looked up at the two people still fighting in the sky and whispered, "Let's go quickly and find a place to hide first... Do you know where we can hide nearby?"

Although Tang Jiao didn't quite understand why she had to hide it, she nodded vigorously without hesitation: "I know!"

"Before I came to Wandu Mountain, I wandered around the mountains and eventually found a small cave. I hid in it for several days before being discovered by the Miao people."

"That place is very remote, and no one usually goes there, but it's not far from the Ten Thousand Poisons Mountain, so we can hide there temporarily!"

Fu Qingzhou nodded slightly: "Okay, let's go there."

The battle in the sky gradually became more intense. The explosions caused by the two people's collision became more frequent and louder, and even began to affect the ground.

The two meteors crashed into a mountain, causing it to tilt in half. The falling boulders caused the earth to tremble slightly, which was frightening.

When Tang Jiao supported Fu Qingzhou and slowly walked down the Wandu Mountain trail, a terrifying energy suddenly fell from the sky and landed in the forest only a few feet away from the two of them, blasting dozens of large trees into pieces.

"Who are they..."

Tang Jiao was so scared that she clung to Fu Qingzhou, but she still had to force herself to support him, her voice trembling: "Is it, is it a fairy from heaven?"

Fu Qingzhou didn't know how to answer, so he just shook his head.

Going down the mountain was also a very painful experience for him. Not only did his legs hurt, but the soles of his feet were also worn out from running back and forth in the Phoenix Blood Pool. Even with someone supporting him, he still grimaced in pain.

Fortunately, he didn't suffer any serious injuries along the way. Even though he hadn't rested since morning until now, he had martial arts skills and could breathe spiritually, so his body could still withstand it.

As time went by, his twitching thighs gradually recovered and he was finally able to walk normally.

The two went down the mountain and, under Tang Jiao's guidance, did not enter the Miao village. Instead, they walked along a forest path for about a quarter of an hour and came to the cave she mentioned.

Tang Jiao wanted to collect firewood and start a fire, but was stopped by Fu Qingzhou - of course, it was better not to reveal her position at the moment.

The sound of thunder in the distant sky gradually subsided, and I wonder if the battle is coming to an end.

In the dark night, Tang Jiao, relying on her many years of living here and her familiarity with the terrain, quickly picked some wild fruits from outside and handed them to Fu Qingzhou.

"Brother, eat."

As she spoke, she lowered her head and squatted down, grabbed Fu Qingzhou's feet, and began to remove the broken stones and branches that had pierced his skin.

Fu Qingzhou was really embarrassed, but he couldn't refuse now... If someone did it for him, he could indeed save a lot of time and energy to recover his strength.

I don’t know if I can hide here or whether I should run further away.

Unfortunately, while he was still planning what to do next, footsteps were heard outside the cave.

The burly figure of Long Dabei walked into the cave, holding on to the wall, and sat down opposite Fu Qingzhou very naturally.

Fu Qingzhou was completely frozen.

It took Tang Jiao several seconds to react, and then she suddenly realized that there was someone beside her. She was so scared that she screamed softly and shrank to Fu Qingzhou.

Long Dabei looked very scary at this moment.

His shirt was tattered and hung on his shoulders, cut into countless strips by someone unknown, and his body was covered with wounds so deep that the bones could be seen. The most serious wound ran from his left shoulder to his right ribs, and dark green poisonous blood kept flowing out. One could even see his internal organs wriggling in the wound.

But Long Dabei turned a blind eye to these fatal wounds and his face remained calm and compassionate.

"good."

He said solemnly to Fu Qingzhou: "You hide here, it will be convenient for the master to find you, and he will not be able to find us for a while, and..."

As he said this, he glanced at Tang Jiao, whose face was horrified, and said, "It's a good thing to have someone to take care of us on the road."
