【Option [-]】

[Go to the previously discovered thorn depression]

……

I am most familiar with this thorny depression.

Other enemies are either skilled or cunning.Although Zheng Zhuo has internal and external skills, his movements may be deformed at any time due to the pain that engulfs his heart.He didn't even doubt that he would suddenly faint at a certain critical moment.

Although he was uneasy about Guo Liang's ability to handle the environment in the thorny depression, Zheng Zhuo still wanted to take the risk.

At least there, he knew the worst was being tied up like a hedgehog.As for other places, it's hard to say.

There were several bangs in a row.

Zheng Zhuo threw out the branch that was broken by Guo Liang.He was all off, some branches fell too close, others too far.

But it is generally close to the direction of the Thorn Depression.

Guo Liang turned his head slightly.He was attracted by the sound of the branches, and slowly, he began to move towards the thorn depression.

"(This [Into the Brain Gu] is powerful in martial arts, but the price is to destroy the brain. Other aspects are very simple.)" Seeing Guo Liang's actions, Zheng Zhuo couldn't help thinking, "(Whoever hits him, he will Hit someone. If there is any movement, I want to see it, no different from animals.)”

If there is anything worth noting, it is that Guo Liang still has a great attachment to [Gui Yi Jing].Considering that Grandma Wuhua once said that "the body is not completely controlled by oneself", it means that Guo Liang's own will can still be reflected in his body movements.

But now, Zheng Zhuo hid [Return to the First Classic] in his personal soft bag, Guo Liang couldn't see it, and he really didn't know where the scriptures went.

"(Thinking is still hindered.)"

Zheng Zhuo felt that his thinking speed had been affected by the pain brought by [Introduction Gu], and it became very slow.From this point of view, the influence of [Into the Brain Gu] is far more than a hundred times that of him.

"(horrible.)"

Zheng Zhuo thought while chasing.He and Guo Liang, who was carrying Xiang Renjie, both ran fast, and in a blink of an eye, the thorny depression appeared in front of them.

it is good.

Zheng Zhuo used his hand to split the tree, smashed a branch, and threw it far into the thorns.

Hearing the sound of "whoosh", Guo Liang jumped in without any hesitation, and kicked to the place where the branch fell.

The result was as expected.The thorns have no likes and dislikes, and they pierce the skin of every invader equally.

Guo Liang exerted so much force that he shattered a lot of thorns when he fell. However, he couldn't bear the fact that the thorns in the hollow were too lush, and many of them pierced into his body.

It's just that Guo Liang seems to have lost his sense of pain.Unrelenting in his speed, he circled around in the brambles, looking for enemies that had not yet been captured.

It turned out that he had practiced the external skill [Breath-breathing Kung Fu], he could endure pain several times more than ordinary people, and he was not afraid of pain.

This exercise is the culmination of several years of hard work by the founder of the Huashan School.The original intention is to let the person who has learned this skill temporarily lose the sense of pain when facing the enemy. After being injured, he can still be as brave as before, and get the opponent's head with a small injury.

It's just that, now that the [Brain Injection Gu] is used, the situation is getting better or worse.

Guo Liang has no understanding of his situation.He walked around, pushing aside the thorns with his sword, not caring that the thorns on his body were pricking more and more.

He began to ache and bleed, but only slightly confused.This doubt made him more convinced that there were enemies around, so he was more vigilant.

This is a pain for Xiang Renjie who hugged his head and face.Guo Liang was wary of enemies around him, and it was a good thing to temporarily give up grabbing him from the face.But he was also among these thorn bushes, and he was inevitably wounded all over his body.

Xiang Renjie originally wanted to use his [Golden Bell Jar] skill, but he had seen Guo Liang's power, and he was afraid that Guo Liang would learn it after reading it, and it would not hurt him even more, so he insisted on not saying a word.

Just when Xiang Renjie was stabbed in unbearable pain, there was a soft sound from behind.

Xiang Renjie turned his head and looked.It turned out that Zheng Zhuo parted the thorns and appeared far behind.

It turned out that Zheng Zhuo's [Liuyun Kung Fu] had achieved great success, entering this thorny depression was like entering an uninhabited land, and soon caught up with Guo Liang.

"Xiang Bo!"

Zheng Zhuo cried out in a low voice, and handed out a greased paper bag.One end of the oil-paper bag had been opened, and there was a scripture in it.

"Hurry up and take this scripture..."

His voice did not fall.

"Roar!"

"what!?"

That Guo Liang's senses are extremely keen!Just as Zheng Zhuo was within ten steps of him, he suddenly turned his head and rushed towards Zheng Zhuo.

Zheng Zhuo had no choice but to use [Liuyun Kungfu], back away, and leave far away.

He didn't want Guo Liang to keep in touch with him.He was also afraid that Guo Liang would learn [Liuyun Gong].

"(Wait until he completely loses his strength from the thorns.)" He thought, "(That can only pray that Xiang Renjie will not lose consciousness before Guo Liang loses his strength, or be killed by Guo Liang...)"

It's too risky.

Zheng Zhuo still intends to contact as much as possible.

After all, as long as Xiang Renjie touches the 【Return to One Classic】...

at this time.

There was another sound of wind behind him.

Immediately afterwards, the heavy iron object swung down towards Zheng Zhuo.

Zheng Zhuo was shocked.He urged [Smoke Step] to dodge sideways, and the stainless steel crutch made a big hole in his original position.

No sound, no inner strength was revealed.

The one who came was also a master of [Liuyun Kungfu].

He looks back.

Gray hair, stooped back.

The figure that appeared among the thorns was none other than the five-flowered mother-in-law!

……

Granny Wuhua is chasing after her!She smiled sadly and said, "You kid, you hide pretty fast."

Is it here to take us all back?
At this time, you can't be disturbed by this old woman!

Zheng Zhuo immediately took steps and walked towards Guo Liang and Xiang Renjie.

He wanted to lure Granny Wuhua closer to the two of them.If Granny Wuhua can catch the two of them first, he will be able to catch the gap and pass [Return to One Classic] to Xiang Renjie.

however.

"what happened……"

He turned around, sweating on his forehead, but he still couldn't get rid of the five-flowered mother-in-law.

Granny Wuhua seemed to be keeping a close eye on him, walking behind him in a leisurely manner, but she couldn't get away no matter what.Zheng Zhuo used the [Taiqing Stellar Qi] to move the [Light Smoke Step], one step at a time.But this [Smoky Step] is the unique skill of Wuhua Granny, so the direction and intention of moving forward are all under his control.

After another failed escape, Wuhua Granny grinned.

"I didn't expect the [Return to the First Classic], which I couldn't find, to be stolen by the kid from Huashan. Thank you for discovering... Now return the [Return to the First Classic]."

Unexpectedly, this was the intention.

Zheng Zhuo was speechless.

The old woman was lying when she said that she would give the scriptures to the winner!Now the scriptures appeared, but they didn't even read the game, so they wanted to grab the scriptures.

"Is it possible..."

Zheng Zhuo was about to refuse when a voice suddenly came out of his head.

"I'm done. You haven't finished yet? I see someone near you. Do you want to help?"

It was [Joker] Fu Xi's voice.

"(You really know how to pick the right time.)"

Zheng Zhuo smiled wryly in his heart.

Some people are talking about dumb beggars.He was sent flying by Guo Liang, but he didn't show up now, he should have passed out.

"(Come on.)"

Zheng Zhuo said in his heart.He looked forward again.

There will be a turnaround soon.He wants to delay the old woman first.
