final catastrophe

Chapter 209 25. Desolate Village (for Subscription)

The handsome bearded man suddenly coughed, and then his breath became slightly calmer, as if he was about to wake up.

For being able to meet this girl who I "raised" here, I also feel quite a bit of fate.

Just seeing her burning expression mixed with indifference at this time, Xia Ji secretly thought that she was still a little bit underwhelmed, since we met, he would help her.

"you're awake."

Liu Lianxi's voice came from beside her ears, the original sweetness became a little deeper.

"Ah."

The handsome bearded man nodded, then stared wide-eyed and looked around. In the distance was the curling smoke from a burning kitchen. Hundreds of people, some holding axes, short guns, swords, etc., were setting up a bonfire, forming three circles.

At this time, it was noon, and the sun was just right, which made people feel some warmth.

But the handsome bearded man didn't look at this, but just squinted at the girl in front of him. However, in this expression, it was not the profanity of "greedy without seeing the beauty", or "being in a strange environment after waking up" "And some are vigilant, let alone appreciative.

He seemed to be observing and gaining insight.

Sensing his strange gaze, Liu Lianxi stretched out her hand and said, "Liu Lianxi belongs to King Yan, but the king has already died at the hands of Emperor Shang, so my brothers and I are nothing but rogues."

The handsome bearded man stroked his long beard, and suddenly said, "Are you a sword master?"

Liu Lianxi was taken aback, then shook her head: "Not yet."

"What about you, are you Guan Wuchang?" The girl took advantage of the situation and asked her most concerned question.

The handsome bearded man shook his head.

"No?" The girl was a little unwilling to give up.

"No." The bearded man shook his head with a firm expression.

Liu Lianxi quietly looked at the handsome bearded man in front of her for a moment, then the sword in her hand suddenly came out of its sheath, turning into a crimson cherry blossom, carrying a frightening power, and even slashing straight at the man in front of her.

But the big man with a beautiful beard didn't move. I don't know if he was frightened, or he didn't have time to react at all.

The sword rested on his neck.

But the handsome bearded man's expression remained unchanged, and he still looked at her quietly.

"You really are not." Liu Lianxi was a little disappointed. Her temptation had already come to fruition. She was just a swordsman of the ultimate realm. He will not be held around his neck by his own sword at all.

She withdrew her sword and walked forward slowly, but the handsome bearded man suddenly burst into laughter.

Liu Lianxi didn't turn her head back, but vaguely, she heard "Tigers never walk alone, only cattle and sheep hug together to keep warm".

I felt a little touched in my heart, but I didn't take it seriously.

Because after a short rest, they still need to continue their journey to Pingfeng Mountain.

Hastily ate some badger meat, surrounded by jungles and streams in troubled times, chewing the rough meat with only large salt particles like this, but it has a special flavor.

This beautiful bearded man appeared in the group, and then headed northwest again.

But this place is extremely remote, and the population has become scarce.

In the evening, the hundred and ten rogues finally arrived at a small village, and when they looked through the village, they could see the mountains standing at the end of the sky, covered in dust, like huge figures standing upright.

The mists of the deep winter twilight had begun to rise.

A group of people walked into this quiet village, and some of the original villagers seemed to have fled, and some of them had cold corpses, and the rotten bones of three or five pavilions were leaning against the deep well and in the corner.

Look at that appearance, has been dead for a long time.

The robbers hung their heads around their waists, but they were not afraid of the dead, but they still searched the deserted village at the foot of the mountain carefully. After confirming that there was no one there, they formed groups and picked out some empty villages. house to move in.

midnight.

Suddenly there was the sound of "drip dripping" rain outside the door. The clouds and rain in the mountains are changeable, and it is not unusual to have rain at night.

It's just that tonight, the sound is a little frightening, making people feel inexplicably terrified, as if even their heart beats along with the sound of the rain.

Xia Ji slept in the same room with two ordinary thieves. He made a bunk and lay on the floor.

Since the robbers confirmed that he was not Guan Wuchang, they didn't care about him anymore, they only said that he had lost his memory, and they took him with them.

Boom! !
A thunderclap made people jump up suddenly.

Suddenly a bandit shouted from inside the house: "There is a ghost!"

There were bursts of thunder in the winter, the weather was extremely weird, and with such a loud voice, it made people feel even more panicked.

Another robber in the house hurriedly said, "What are you yelling about?!"

The bandit who exclaimed was a short and strong man, and he usually used a long-handled hatchet, which was considered fierce, but at the moment he was huddled in the bed, "I saw a shadow hanging from the oil-paper window."
It seems to be a woman's head hanging upside down, and what hangs down seems to be hair. "

When he said this, the other person also became a little scared, rolled his eyes, and scolded: "Big Beard, go and see if the window is not closed properly."

The bearded man he was talking about was naturally referring to the newly joined bearded man.

The latter yawned without any excuses, and walked towards the window yawning as if he hadn't woken up.

Right now.

There was another thunder in the sky, rumbling like the sound of a tomb collapsing.

Lei Guang shone white on the deserted village below the mountain.

But this time, both of them saw clearly that there was a strange head hanging down from the oil-paper window, and the long hair hung down wet with the night rain, and then shook back and forth.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The two bandits who were usually quite fierce shouted.

The handsome bearded man turned around curiously, turned his back to the window, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Behind you." One of the robbers could barely speak, pointing in his direction with trembling fingers.

"Behind me?" The beautiful bearded man turned around again, but the thunder light had dissipated, and the oil-paper windows fell into darkness again, and let the sudden rainwater slap indiscriminately, making harsh noises.

"There's nothing." The handsome bearded man pushed open the window carelessly, then poked his head out, looked left and right, and even looked up and down.

Then he retracted his head, closed the window tightly, yawned and said, "Nothing."

So, he half-closed his eyes, looking sleepy.

Bang!
The window suddenly opened wide.

The wind seems to be too strong, and the window has been in disrepair for a long time, so even if it is closed tightly, it will be opened.

"Big Beard, go and have a look again."

The handsome bearded man shook his head, "I won't go, I'm sleepy."

After speaking, he fell directly on the floor and fell asleep.

The two robbers looked at each other. Since the bearded man was fine just now, he should be fine. Maybe the shadow just now was just an illusion.

After thinking about it, one of them walked over.
