Chapter 41 In the Dense Forest
The quality is worrying!
Hiding behind a big tree, listening to the chaotic noise in the dense forest, Li Yuan shook his head.
Whether or not you practice martial arts has little to do with your psychological quality.
He had never experienced this before, and when he suddenly heard the screams of his own kind, even he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
However, he was mentally older than the other apprentices and had calmed down by now.
"With Nian Jiu's skills, these apprentices had time to send out signals. It seems that he was really seriously injured. Maybe..."
Li Yuan started to have some thoughts.
It wasn't that he was greedy for the reward from the imperial court, but he always felt uneasy because Jiu Bu died that year.
"Don't be impatient, be careful..."
After calming himself, Li Yuan raised his hammer and moved, bending his body to shuttle between the big trees, looking around.
Soon, he found a corpse with a miserable death and the skull flying off.
Even though he had dealt with corpses many times in his previous life, Li Yuan still felt a little uncomfortable, mainly because this death was too tragic.
rustle~
Suddenly, Li Yuan bent down and saw a member of the Sanhe Gang rushing over and groping the dead body.
"..."
Li Yuan's mouth twitched slightly, but he quickly bent down.
boom!
Just when the gang member raised his head, he suddenly felt a strong wind behind him. Before he could turn around, he was knocked to the ground, and the one who was touching the body was touched by others.
"Is this the ghostwriter for that fake Taoist priest?"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. The one who attacked the Sanhe gang member from behind was actually the reckless man who wanted to "make him bleed" before.
"Not much ability, but a lot of money!"
The ruffian weighed the silver he had found and was about to stand up when he suddenly heard a whistling wind behind him. Without thinking, he protected his head with both hands and lunged forward, reacting extremely quickly.
When the strike missed, Li Yuan took root under his feet, twisted his body, and his blood boiled, like a blacksmith, hammering away at the force.
With a bang, the big man was knocked to the ground.
boom!
The big man was beaten to the ground, and one of his arms, which were holding his head, was broken. Before he could scream, he felt his hands and waist go empty, and his head was stepped into the mud.
When he raised his head again, his face was filled with anger and frustration:
"grass!"
So exciting!
After succeeding in one go, the vengeful Li Daoye ran away quickly, and like a spirit ape, he ran behind a big tree, his heart pounding and his face flushed.
"My adrenaline is pumping! This is much more exciting than beating Qian Bao. Fortunately, I am good at hammering. If I hadn't controlled the force of that hammer, I would have killed him in one blow!"
Li Yuan calmed his breath and weighed the silver in his hand. It was probably more than twenty taels. Two years' monthly salary for an inner courtyard apprentice was in his hands in one go!
"Isn't this much faster than forging iron?"
Having avenged himself and obtained some silver, Li Yuan glanced at the helpless and furious man in the distance who dared not make a sound, and he felt very relieved.
After a little trial, he gradually felt less nervous.
The blood of that rough guy is more powerful than Yue Yunjin's. I'm afraid he is about to break through his internal strength.
But when Li Yuan made a move, he even activated the talisman. With the help of the master craftsman's hammer and sickle, he was sure to defeat him head-on.
It would be really unfair if the sneak attack failed.
"Well, we can't be careless. But, if someone with this skill dares to act alone, there's no reason why I wouldn't dare to do it!"
Stuffing the silver into his arms, Li Yuan clenched the hammer head and looked warily at the dense forest that seemed to have suddenly become quiet.
After realizing his current skills, he suddenly became bolder.
Where is Nianjiu?
……
……
"puff!"
In a hidden tree hole, Nian Jiu was coughing up blood with a hideous look on his face.
After several attacks and a period of escape, all his new and old wounds broke out and he almost fainted again.
Reason told him that he should withdraw immediately, but he was unwilling to do so.
“Unwilling…”
Nian Jiu gritted his teeth and took a deep breath to stabilize his injuries. Suddenly, a dog barked outside the tree hole and someone sneered:
"Search! Nian Jiu is nearby!"
Damn!
Nian Jiu was shocked and angry, and felt so frustrated that he almost went crazy.
If they had no injuries, he could kill all of them with one hand, but now...
"Anyone who wants to kill me must die!"
Hearing the footsteps gradually approaching, Nian Jiu's one eye turned red and the remaining strength in his body suddenly tensed up.
call!
He rushed out, swinging his one arm like a whip, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air. Bang!
A figure fell heavily to the ground, blood and dead leaves splattering everywhere.
"Qianjundong's horizontal training is really amazing. After being injured so badly, he still has the strength to struggle?"
came a hoarse voice.
Nian Jiu supported himself on the ground with one arm, looking fiercely at the masked man in gray in front of him, his heart completely sank:
"Nei Zhuang?!"
"It's a pity that although Heng Lian is good, you are a waste! If I hadn't covered for you, Qiu Long would have killed you long ago!"
The man in gray sneered.
"Before, it was you who led Qiu Long and others away?"
Nian Jiu struggled to stand up, his eyes still extremely fierce: "You are masked, do we know each other? Or, who are you in Gaoliu County?"
"You don't need to care who I am. You just need to know that I helped you, and one day, you need to pay it back!"
The man in gray raised his hand and threw a bottle of pills over:
"Take the medicine and leave. I will take care of the pursuers and Qiu Long for you!"
"Deal with Qiu Long? Who are you? How do you want me to pay you back?"
Nian Jiu took the medicine, but he was still cautious.
But the man in gray just waved his hand, left a sentence "I will find you someday", and disappeared into the dense forest after a few ups and downs.
"There are many internal strength warriors in Gaoliu County, but there seem to be only two internal strong ones. Is this person Cao Yan? Or is he an outsider ghostwriter?"
Nian Jiu leaned against a tree, sniffed the porcelain bottle, and the ferocious look on his face eased a little:
"Superior Yuan-boosting Pill?"
After casually swallowing one, Nian Jiu's face instantly turned redder, but he did not regulate his breathing, nor did he even follow the path pointed out by the gray-clothed man to escape.
Instead, he turned around and rushed towards the direction where the voice came from.
Anyone who dares to chase me must die!
……
“My blood and qi haven’t reached their peak yet, so I’m still a long way from reaching full maturity. But with the help of the master craftsman’s hammer and sickle, even the ghostwriters who have reached full maturity are no match for me!”
Traveling through the dense forest, Li Yuan was no longer as nervous and flustered as he was at first.
The first scream caused the entire dense forest to panic, and gang members, apprentices, disciples, and ghostwriters from various families all started to move.
Some people are on the run, some are searching for Nian Jiu, but there are also those who are taking advantage of the situation and targeting the apprentices of various families.
Along the way, Li Yuan met four or five such ghostwriters.
He was not polite either. At the very least, he broke the limbs of the victims, and at the worst, he beat them until they vomited blood and became unconscious. The silver in his hand suddenly piled up to more than fifty taels, which was enough to pay off Fatty Sun's debt.
He also gradually became familiar with the rhythm of the battle, and had a different understanding of the inner three combinations and even the six combinations.
"No wonder they say that a bloody battle without death is worth ten years of hard work. I have only sneaked up on you a few times and have not fought head-on yet, but my fighting skills have improved a lot!"
Suddenly, he heard screams in the distance. Li Yuan turned around and rushed into the bushes beside the road.
"He, he's here!"
A shrill scream sounded from a distance, and soon, Li Yuan heard footsteps.
He looked up and saw that the fake Taoist Zhang Yuanfang was coughing up blood and flying backwards, and he actually hit a big tree and broke it. A large number of dead branches and rotten leaves flew everywhere. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
"Internal strength!"
Li Yuan's heart trembled.
Under the flying leaves, there was a beggar with one arm and one eye, his face covered with messy hair, his body covered in blood, and his steps staggering.
"Nian Jiu? He's so badly injured, and still so fierce?"
Even though this man didn't resemble the portrait on the wanted poster at all, the name popped up in Li Yuan's mind and he immediately crouched.
"This guy must be a lunatic. He is so badly injured, but he doesn't run away and wants to kill people!"
Li Yuan was a little frightened.
"Ghostwriter! Pfft..."
Reaching out and pulling out the dagger stuck in his chest, Nian Jiu spat out a mouthful of black blood, slowly raised his head, and scanned the surroundings with his one eye under his messy hair, then limped towards the direction where the voice came from.
"What kind of horizontal training is that?!"
In the grass, Li Yuan was shocked.
He saw clearly that after Nian Jiu pulled out the dagger, the flesh in the wound closed up all of a sudden, and not even a drop of blood flowed out!
"Oh? There's also a little mouse from the forging shop here..."
The moment the cold and bloodthirsty voice reached his ears, Li Yuan's scalp exploded.
boom!
Almost without thinking, he leaped up like a monkey, twisting his body and swinging his arms, and the long-handled hammer weighing more than 30 kilograms almost left an afterimage:
White ape hammers!
