Chapter 282 Danger
In the flood and famine, a horrible team was galloping. In a few days, the team finally passed through the flood and attacked the border of the Celestial Empire.
Here, the border of the Celestial Empire has strengthened its defense. Because of Mu Chen's escape last time, the soldiers here have also begun to carry out carpet-style searches everywhere. It is suspected that the spies of the flood and famine stay here. Now the flood and the Celestial Empire are in the form of swordsmanship. As long as there is a little wind and grass, the two sides will unfold. The most gorgeous war in history.
Now the soldiers at the border are more than four times as many as before, searching for suspicious people everywhere every day, especially where Mu Chen has stayed.
In a cave on the mainland border of the Celestial Empire, larks sit on stones with anxious faces. These days, the scope of patrol by Celestial soldiers is getting larger and larger. According to this form, they will be caught by the Celestial Empire sooner or later.
It has been more than half a month since Mu Chen left. What the lark is more worried about is not her danger but Mu Chen's safety. At this moment, she is also very contradictory. In her heart, she hopes that Mu Chen can come to save her, but for Mu Chen's safety, she does not want Mu Chen to venture here again.
Ling is so worried that he will go crazy sooner or later, but fortunately, in these days, he met a girl who was collecting medicine. This woman in her early 20s is a nearby villager. She is very nice. Seeing that the lark is pitiful in this cave all day, she will send a bowl of hot soup every day, although the hot soup is as clear as Water, but the lark is also very grateful. He knows that the life of these villagers is not easy.
On this day, as usual, the lark sat in front of the entrance of the cave and looked at the sky. For fear of being discovered by the soldiers of the heavenly dynasty, she only dared to expose half of her face outside the cave, but every time she looked at the direction Mu Chen left.
At this moment, the girl who came every day came carefully with a bowl of hot soup, showing a sweet smile.
"Sister Lark!" Seeing that the lark looked at the sky, the girl suddenly jumped out and patted the lark on the shoulder.
Ling smiled and said, "You little girl, didn't you say you wouldn't come again?"
"Yes, yes, I won't come tomorrow." The girl spit out her tongue and smiled.
The lark shook his head: "Every time I say that, it's too dangerous for me. I don't want to involve you."
"I know, I know. If you don't come next time, drink the soup first, and it will be cold in a moment." The girl picked up the steaming bowl and narrowed her eyes, forming a beautiful arc.
The lark pointed to the girl's head: "Only ghosts will believe you."
With that, the lark drank the soup in one breath and looked at the cute girl in front of him and said, "You'd better go back early today. Recently, the soldiers' inspection has been very ordinary. It's okay for my sister to be here alone."
The girl smiled sweetly: "It doesn't matter. Since it's dangerous here, you can go to my place. The wet and cold weather in this cave is not suitable for people to live in."
The lark waved his hand: "Don't joke. If you and your family are involved, my sister will regret it for the rest of her life."
However, a sharp light flashed in the girl's eyes: "It won't involve my family, and you will bring us great benefits."
"What do you mean?" Bailing raised his eyebrows and asked.
"In the first-class soul realm, prisoners of this kind of strength will get a lot of bounty if they catch the Celestial Empire, which is enough for our family to live for a few years."
Hearing this, the lark was shocked. The little girl actually knew her strength and quickly retreated: "Who are you?"
"Hahaha, the IQ of the strong man who escaped the pursuit of the heavenly dynasty is really not high. Do you really think I am an ordinary villager? I will take you to heaven today to exchange money."
With that, the girl immediately took out a dagger and stabbed directly at the lark, who said coldly, "It's not so easy for you to capture me."
This girl is not a strong person, and she hasn't even stepped into the spiritual realm. Naturally, the lark will not be afraid. But when she just took a step, she felt dizzy in her mind. The appearance of the girl reflected in her eyes turned into a trembling phantom and said, "You, your soup."
Looking at the appearance of the lark, the girl laughed: "Haha, you are so powerful. How can you fall into my hand without some means? The first few times I sent you soup just to paralyze you.
The girl held a rope in one hand and a dagger in the other, slowly walked to the lark and sighed, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, living is more valuable than death."
Although the lark has been poisoned, the little girl in front of her has not even reached the spiritual realm. The lark forcibly operates the true spirit all over her body and feels that it is not a problem to deal with this girl.
However, before the true qi condensed and took shape, she suddenly dispersed and couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood. She couldn't imagine that this poison could seal the operation of the true qi in her body.
"I said don't resist." The girl walked lightly to the lark and picked up the rope and began to tie it up. But after all, the lark had the strength of the soul realm. She resisted the dizziness that kept coming from her mind and hit it with a palm and hit the girl's chest. The latter wanted to wave the dagger in his hand, but it was too late, and her body flew 100 meters backward.
The palm of the lark just now is a simple physical attack, and there is no real intervention, but it is enough for this girl who has not even reached the spiritual realm.
The girl stood up hard. She had never fought with the strong soul. She didn't know how strong people at this level would be. She was also a little afraid, but she didn't retreat. Suddenly, she shouted, "You guys haven't come to help me. I'll be killed by this woman in a while."
With that, four men flew from outside the cave and saw that several people were strong in the spiritual realm, and even one of them had reached the peak of the spiritual realm.
At this moment, the lark couldn't cope at all. His face was pale and hissed, "If you don't want to die, leave here quickly."
However, how can these people not see the weakness of the lark at this time? They won't know how strong the effect of this bowl of soup is. One of them was about to pick up the rope to tie the lark, but the leading man pulled out the sword at his waist and pointed to the lark: "This woman's life can't be retained. If the soul is strong, in case the effect of the medicine retreats. I'm afraid our lives will be insurable.
With that, the man walked to the lark and couldn't help saying, "It's a pity to kill such a beautiful woman, but for the benefit of my brothers, I have to do it."
The lark can only look at the approaching man. At this moment, she has no strength to fight.
"Wo!!!" At this time, a black sword suddenly hit, and the man who was about to stab the lark trembled, and his eyes became lax and fell to the ground feebly.
The sharp blade passed, and even the wound could not be seen.
"Since it's a pity, let's kill you." A man in white came slowly, holding a black sword in his hand, his face was cold, and he walked directly to the lark. When the other men saw their companions killed, they waved their weapons and rushed up. However, several black sword shadows passed by, and these people lost their lives in an instant.
Only the girl who hid in the corner in fear looked carefully at the cold-faced man. Judging from the action of the man in white, she did not look like an enemy.
The lark looked at the choked girl and felt a little heartbroken. No matter whether the feelings of these days were true or not, after all, the girl brought her happiness. When the lark was about to say something, the man seemed to see the lark's idea. The black blade drew a profit again, and the crying girl finally lost her life. .
"The person who wants to kill you doesn't need mercy." The man replied in a cold voice.
"Thank you, thank you." Lark couldn't react to the changes here for a while, and everything happened too suddenly.
The man didn't care about the words of the lark at all. He threw out a pill and said, "Take it and you can recover."
At this moment, the lark did not doubt that the pill was effective. After all, the man in front of him did not need to use this method to kill her. Sure enough, after taking the pill, the true qi in the lark's body quickly recovered, and the poison did not have much power.
Watching the lark gradually recover, the man still has a cold face: "It's very dangerous here. We have to leave now."
