Misty Rain of the Old Times

Chapter 148 Follow Me
After eating and drinking enough and washing up, those who need to rest can rest, and those who need to keep watch can keep watch.

Most of them used carriages as beds, but some set up tents, like those from the escort agency, since they only had one carriage.

But there are also those who have nothing, such as a certain female hero Zhao.

She sat by the fire, her shoes had been repaired and she was wearing them. She hugged her knees with her hands, and placed her spear in a convenient place beside her. The flickering firelight made her pretty face flicker.

Staring at the firelight in a daze, she no longer had the cheerfulness she had during the day. After all, she was away from home alone, and she looked a bit pitiful and helpless.

But this girl is a big eater. She ate most of the four dishes and one soup. I guess she hasn't had any good meals for a few days since she left home.

Seeing her like this, Chen Xuan, who was walking towards the carriage, thought that she was a little girl after all, so he stopped and said, "Miss Zhao."

"What?" she asked, turning around.

Thank you.

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "We have some extra quilts here. Would you like to borrow one? Sleeping on the floor is better than sleeping by the fire."

"You are quite nice. I thought you wanted to give me your carriage. Well, I won't be polite. Where is it? I'll get it myself," she said, standing up and patting her butt.

This girl has really become smart. She has completely understood that rejecting kindness means suffering a loss.

You're dreaming. How dare you let me, a child, sleep outside? You're even trying to induce me with words. You're not stupid. We're children, not the time to be gentlemanly.

Pretending not to notice her little thoughts, Chen Xuan said, "Come with me, in the car."

Then he gave her a quilt. She held the quilt and looked at the carriage with envy. Seeing that Chen Xuan had no intention of giving it up, she thought to herself, I don’t want it. Then she took the quilt to the fire and spread it out a little further away, using half of it as a cushion and half as a cover. She wrapped herself in it, like a large cricket pupa, without even showing her head, and she was not afraid of being suffocated.

After all, she is a little girl. She must be missing home and is stubbornly unwilling to go back. After living a life of wandering for a while, she will realize how good home is. Or she may become wild out of habit.

We went back to the car to rest. Xiao Cai also made a bed for Chen Xuan. It was a bit crowded because there were a lot of things in the car, but after adjusting his posture, he felt comfortable. It was better than lying on the ground outside.

It was late at night and the world was quiet. The insects were chirping and the birds were singing. Occasionally, the night watchmen could be heard chatting. It was quite elegant under the cover of night.

However, this tranquility did not last long.

Even from a distance, Chen Xuan heard someone approaching this side quickly without even hiding.

The opponent was very fast, and before we had time to pay close attention or even guess his intentions, he had already appeared outside the camp.

The old man in black robe has arrived.

It took Chen Xuan and his companions half a day to travel, but he caught up with them in less than an hour.

The place was brightly lit, making it extremely conspicuous at night. He said that he would kill every murderer he found along the way, so he would naturally not let this place go.

He never expected that as soon as he arrived here, he was instantly furious, because he saw the snake tendons drying on the car and the snake skins spread out for drying after being simply processed.

The murderer who I had been chasing all the way was actually encountered so easily, and in the first wave of people.

He was really brave. He killed his own little baby and instead of running away, he was in the mood to spend the night here.

This person was not reckless. After all, he was the one who could kill his little baby, so he must have some skills. So he observed them a little, worried about capsizing. But no matter how he looked at it, except for two or three who deserved a little attention, the rest were all rookies.

"My little darling's fatal wound was a gunshot wound to the eye. Someone here used a gun. Is he wrapped in a blanket like a cicada pupa? These people are definitely the murderers!"

After two breaths of confirmation, the old man suppressed his anger and stepped forward. He would not let these people die easily.

He originally wanted to drug these people first to subdue them and then slowly deal with them, but he observed the terrain and found that he could not take advantage of the situation, so he secretly cursed his bad luck.

Anyway, they were just a bunch of noobs, how could they turn the tables? No one of them could escape, so he swaggered towards the camp.

Chen Xuan, who had noticed him a long time ago, thought that the visitor had ill intentions, but the other party appeared directly and too fast to be dealt with secretly.

"who!"

His blatant appearance was naturally seen by the night watchman, who immediately became alert and questioned him, also to warn others.

Everyone immediately became alert. Zhao Qingluan threw off the quilt and stood up, grabbing the spear with a toe. Gao Jingming and the others got off the carriage with their weapons to check.

The old man in black robe approached step by step, his black robe fluttering in the wind, and his face gave off a very oppressive feeling.

"Everyone be careful, this guy has bad intentions and is a ruthless character!"

Geng Hong reminded in a deep voice. The other party's aura made him feel frightened and nervous.

"Why has this old gentleman come?" Zhan Biaotou asked solemnly. He also saw that this man was extremely powerful, and it would be best if he could stop the war.

This is exactly the effect the old man wants. Seeing them nervous and timid makes him feel happy, and he will feel even more happy when he tortures them later.

He walked over slowly and said sinisterly, "The one who wants to kill you!"

"Old man, you've gone too far. I don't think we have offended anyone. Why do you want to kill me?" Geng Hong questioned with a knife.

Already close, the old man slammed the strange snake staff in his hand onto the ground and said with a fierce grin, "No offense? You killed my little darling, pulled out its tendons, peeled its skin, and even ate its flesh. Now you tell me you didn't offend me? You all must die, a death ten or a hundred times more tragic than my little darling's. Only then can the hatred in my heart be alleviated!"

Zhao Qingluan didn't react for a moment, glared and spat, saying: "You are so shameless, old man. You are so old and still call me little darling. Could you be that obscene and absurd person?" Geng Hong and the others looked at each other in surprise and disbelief when they heard this, and soon thought of the python they killed that day.

The real boss has come to visit.

It turns out that the python was raised by humans, and they allowed the fog to cover the mountain and cause trouble!

Since this person can raise such a big python, his own strength should definitely not be underestimated.

"You little kid are born with a good appearance, but it's a pity that you have such a beautiful face. Hehehe, you are the one who will kill my little darling. I will torture you later. I will plant worm eggs in your stomach and let them hatch and eat your heart, liver, intestines and stomach and then bite through your skin and flesh. It will be a pleasure for me," the old man said to Zhao Qingluan with a vicious look.

The tone was vicious, and the content was even more vicious, which was so creepy that even Zhao Qingluan, who was foolish and brave, couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

"Hmph, I'm just afraid you don't have that ability," Zhao Qingluan gritted her teeth. Intimidated by the opponent's momentum, she felt a little weaker.

At this moment, Chen Xuan suddenly spoke up to remind them, "Everyone, be careful! Immediately, practice Qigong and hold your breath! This person, using the flames as cover, has secretly thrown something into the fire. It must be poison or drugs!"

His little movement was quick and covert, but it still did not escape Chen Xuan's sharp eyes.

Everyone was suddenly horrified and immediately distanced themselves from each other, practicing Qigong and holding their breath.

The old man immediately looked at Chen Xuan coldly and said, "Where did you get this little brat to try to get you to take advantage of my tricks? I'll make sure you're eaten alive by ants. But it doesn't matter. We're so close, you've already been poisoned by my bone-softening powder in the time it takes you to speak. It's too late to say anything now. You can only watch me torture you to death and avenge my little darling!"

"Not good~!"

Everyone was shocked, but the next moment, they fell to the ground one after another.

Geng Hong said in horror: "I can't move. My whole body is numb and I have no strength. Even using my internal energy is useless."

"Me too," Zhan Biaotou also collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely.

Zhao Qingluan's internal energy was deeper and more refined, but he only managed to hold on for two more breaths. Even leaning on his spear, he could no longer stand. He collapsed to the ground and angrily scolded, "You old man are so despicable. You are so powerful, but you used underhanded tactics and drugged me. You will not die a good death!"

Chen Xuan was speechless. I reminded you immediately, but you still fell into the trap. This old guy is not simple. That Sugu San is really powerful and hard to guard against.

"Hahaha, you are such a naive little girl. I can take you down in the simplest way. Even if I can kill you like a chicken, why bother? I don't know whether I will die a good death, but you will definitely die a bad death next..." Zhao Qingluan's words made the other party laugh.

But before he could finish his words, he saw a conspicuous bag.

Gao Jingming stood there as if nothing had happened, holding a short sword in front of him and sneering, "As a scholar, I consider myself elegant and decent, but I have to resort to violence. I have no choice, no choice. It seems that I can only get rid of you, a vicious old man, myself."

The Qingyuan Liuyun Gong he practiced was very effective in resisting and detoxifying poisons. Now that he had achieved great internal strength, he was naturally not afraid of mere anesthetics.

"Sir, don't worry about us, just leave quickly," Xiao Cai and the others screamed. Although they were hit and had no strength to move, they could still speak.

Gao Jingming shook his head and said, "Don't panic, everyone. As long as this old man is not a congenital master, I am confident that I can handle him!"

Of course, he was not bragging. Although his skills were still shallow and he lacked fighting experience, he had a lot of life-saving things.

"How arrogant of you, a young brat like you?" The old man in black robe said disdainfully, but he was secretly alert in his heart. Kid, you dare to say such things, you must have a trump card, it seems like he has to be caught.

Everyone was infected, except Gao Jingming, which was surprising.

"Are you okay, young master?"

"Are you okay, young master?"

Zhao Qingluan showed his darts and the others were surprised, but they were not happy. No one thought that Gao Jingming could deal with this sinister old man who looked no simple matter.

By the way, this does not include Chen Xuan.

Butler He was able to give him several life-saving items, so Gao Jingming naturally had more on him.

Naturally, Chen Xuan was not hit. He was pretending, as he had been on guard against the opponent for a long time. His deep internal strength had already protected his whole body in advance.

He pretended to stagger and fall but actually retreated to the darkness. While everyone's attention was drawn to the old man in black robe and Gao Jingming, he quickly put on a black cloak as a disguise and quickly circled around to the top of a big tree. The bright moon was hanging high behind him, and he had found a good angle.

This is a disease that Geng Hong contracted. It is probably incurable.

He secretly prepared the cloak after experiencing the Monkey Falls Gorge. No one knew about it. He couldn't just wrap himself in a bed sheet all the time. That would be too cheap.

It’s not that he doesn’t want Gao Jingming to get the limelight out, but the main reason is that this old guy’s methods are vicious. Now he’s using anesthetics, will he use some poison that can kill instantly next?
It’s better to resolve it as soon as possible.

He came here to kill him, so of course Chen Xuan would not show mercy.

It was also because the old man came too quickly, and Chen Xuan had to maintain his weak image in front of everyone, otherwise he would have been stopped outside and dealt with.

No one noticed him appearing on the treetops, he was just pretending to be blind.

He had no choice but to speak in a disguised voice: "It's late at night, and it's quite lively here. Is it okay to add me in?"

That's right, everyone follow my lead.
