The Scourge of Rebirth

Chapter 977
There were dozens of sharp arrows flying towards Xuanjizi quickly.

Fortunately, Xuanjizi's reaction speed was not slow. Although the incident happened suddenly, he avoided it with all his strength.

In his busy schedule, Xuanjizi also had a clear view of the situation on the other side of the courtyard wall. He saw a large number of warriors ambushing on the opposite side, each of them holding a sharp weapon, and the number of them was no less than 200.

This discovery immediately changed Xuanjizi's face, without saying a word, he immediately flew down the courtyard wall, and then shouted to the two juniors: "No, there are enemies ambushing outside, this way is blocked, let's leave from another direction. "

The two Taoist priests were a little panicked when they heard the bad news. After all, they were young and had little experience, so they couldn't compare with Xuanjizi.

Xuanjizi took the two juniors and ran away, aiming at the back mountain of Chenghuang Temple.

It has to be said that when Xuanjizi chose to hide in Chenghuang Temple, he also saw that there were many ways out here, but now it came in handy to avoid their bad luck of being surrounded.

Xuanjizi and the others were very careful and focused, and soon reached the foot of the back mountain.

Just when Xuanjizi was about to take the two juniors up the mountain, there was a burst of shouting and killing sounds from all around. The next moment, many warriors ran out from the lush vegetation, screaming and killing them.

This situation made Xuanjizi's face turn pale, then he drew out his weapon and shouted: "Two junior brothers, follow the senior brothers to fight out."

The other two Taoist priests were from the Wudang sect. Although they were already terrified at the moment, they still forced themselves to calm down, held their long swords tightly, and followed Xuanjizi to kill.

Lu Liu led the men who ambushed here, and Lu Liu was also a little surprised at this time, because in Lu Liu's mind, there were so many ways out of the Town God's Temple, Xuanjizi probably wouldn't break out towards the back mountain.

But things backfired, what was originally thought to be impossible happened, and for a while, Lu Liu was a little depressed because he couldn't be lazy anymore.

When he was about to die, Lu Liu didn't back down, he shouted: "Brothers, kill them, kill them, absolutely don't let anyone go."

In fact, there is no need for Lu Liu to say that the warriors present have already rushed forward. These people are old people who have followed Yang Lin for a long time. They are well aware of Yang Lin's behavior. He has always been generous to those who have made great achievements.

One side is cruel punishment, and the other side is high-ranking officials and rich salary. Needless to say, I know how to choose.

The three of Xuanjizi faced dozens of times the enemy, and fell into a tough battle in an instant. Xuanjizi was fine, after all, he was very powerful, and his life was not in danger at this time, but the other two Taoists were different. Although the person's skills are not bad, but facing the siege from all directions, he couldn't hold on for a long time, his body was gradually damaged, and his situation became more and more dangerous.

Seeing this scene, Xuanjizi felt very anxious, and wanted to go to help him, but he couldn't do so, because Lu Liu was blocking him firmly, and he didn't give Xuanjizi a chance to escape.

As a result, the two Taoist priests suffered a lot. They persisted for half a quarter of an hour, but finally they couldn't hold on. They were hacked to death by random knives, and their bruised bodies fell into a pool of blood.

Do not!
Witnessing the tragic death of his junior brother made Xuanjizi very angry. Seeing Xuanjizi roaring up to the sky, the next moment, his whole body's momentum changed, and the strength of his shots became two or three times stronger, directly attacking Lu Liu in front of him.

Lu Liu was also shrewd. Seeing Xuanjizi start to fight desperately, he didn't continue to fight recklessly with the opponent, but retreated very strikingly, and greeted Xuanjizi with crowd tactics.

After all, Xuanjizi is not an ordinary person. Although he is angry at the moment, he has not lost his mind. Even if he continues like this, he will definitely die. Once he is killed, then everything will be over. Die a fool.

Thinking of this, Xuanjizi finally no longer loves to fight. The long sword in his hand stabs repeatedly, killing the nearest enemies, and then leaps in the air. With the help of the nearby big trees, the whole person is like a flexible monkey, dodging from left to right , after paying the price of being slashed in the back, Xuanjizi broke out of the encirclement smoothly, and quickly ran towards the depths of the back mountain.

Seeing this scene, Lu Liu's face became very ugly, and he shouted angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?"Hurry up and chase.

After hearing the words, all the subordinates immediately agreed, and then wanted to continue chasing.

At this time, Lu Youlin and Cheng Tianzang rushed over with a large group of people belatedly. As soon as they arrived, they found that Xuanjizi was not in sight. This discovery made their faces change.

Cheng Tianzang was fine, he didn't pay too much attention to this matter, even if Xuanjizi really ran away, he wouldn't be too disappointed.

But Lu Youlin was different. Before he came out, Lu Youlin had already made a guarantee in front of Yang Lin, saying conclusively that he would solve the mystery. If someone really ran away, then Lu Youlin would not only If he was to be punished, he would also lose face in front of Yang Lin, and in this way, it would be very unfavorable to Lu Youlin's status.

Lu Youlin's face turned black for a while, staring at Lu Liu and asked, "Where is Mr. Xuanji, where is he?"

Lu Liu replied: "He broke out of the siege, he just ran away, and he hasn't run far. Now there is still hope for the pursuit."

Lu Youlin cursed: "Then why bother, hurry up and lead the way."

Lu Liu also knew that Lu Youlin was very angry now, and it was best not to get into trouble, otherwise he would definitely suffer bad luck, so Lu Liu didn't say much, and took the lead in chasing him, while the others quickly followed after seeing this.

While chasing, Lu Youlin still didn't forget to speak harshly, he gritted his teeth and said: "Lu Liu, you wait for me, if this time it really slipped away by Xuan Jizi, causing me to lose all face, then I will definitely It will not be easy to count, we will wait and see in the future."

Hearing this, Lu Liu felt very wronged. You must know that when he was fighting Xuanjizi before, he had put in a lot of effort and was not lazy at all. It's a bit too much to blame him.

Naturally, Lu Liu would not bear it, he retorted: "Lu Youlin, don't talk nonsense, you guys are slow, you can't blame me at all, if you were faster before, what happened now wouldn't happen Now, if we talk about responsibility, we all have a share."

Cheng Tianzang was very dissatisfied and said, "Brother Lu, this is a matter between the two of you. It has nothing to do with me. Don't bring it to me."

Lu Youlin was even more angry and cursed: "Lu Liu, it's really shameless for you to dare to quibble."

Lu Liu's face also turned green with anger, what is this called? He was staying in his room well today and didn't plan to go out. Who knew that disaster would come from heaven, but he was called out by Lu Youlin, Now that it has developed to the present, it is even more unlucky for him to be blamed. In such a situation, it is really unlucky.

Lu Liu stared fiercely at Lu Youlin, but didn't say anything, because he couldn't explain clearly. If he wanted to solve this matter, he had to catch Xuanjizi, otherwise he would be very troublesome in the future.

Thinking of this, Lu Liu immediately speeded up and tried his best to catch up.

Seeing this, Lu Youlin and the others at the back naturally followed up. A group of people ran with all their strength, and after a while, they finally saw Xuanjizi's figure from a distance.

Xuanjizi who was running ahead was also helpless, the enemy was chasing him so closely that he had no chance to cast doubt. Seeing that the enemy found his trace, Xuanjizi desperately increased the humidity, trying to get rid of the enemy again.

But this time it was not so easy, Lu Youlin finally saw Xuanjizi, how could he let the other party slip away again, Lu Youlin let out a tiger roar, his body immediately sewed tightly, and he rushed like a sharp arrow up.

Not only that, while rushing, Lu Youlin also fired a hidden weapon, trying to injure Lu Youlin with the hidden weapon, so as to slow down the opponent's speed.

However, Lu Youlin's method was still effective, because he had to be distracted to avoid hidden weapons, which affected Xuanjizi's forward speed to some extent, and slowed down involuntarily.

Seeing that his method was effective, Lu Youlin was overjoyed immediately, and immediately launched the concealed weapon more vigorously.

Lu Liu, Cheng Tianzang and others didn't just look at it, they also hurriedly took out their hidden weapons, and then greeted Xuanjizi.

As a result, Xuanjizi will be in trouble. He is focused on two purposes, dodging many hidden weapons that are flying, and gradually, the speed of moving forward is much slower.

not good!

Xuanjizi yelled in his heart that something was wrong, his brain started to work, and he wanted to come up with a solution, but unfortunately no matter what Xuanjizi thought, it was useless, because now he only had one person and no helpers, it was really hard to think about it. Find a way.

Lu Youlin and the others were overjoyed, and Lu Liu hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, he's dying, don't stop with hidden weapons, it's best to shoot him dead."

In this way, the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. If this continues, they will be able to hunt down Xuanjizi soon.

After chasing and escaping, everyone had already left the lush forest. Suddenly, there was a clear sound of water, and there should be a river nearby.

Xuanjizi who discovered this was ecstatic, he knew that this was his chance, as long as he jumped into the river and followed the downstream route through his heart, he would be able to get rid of the enemy's pursuit.

So Xuanjizi immediately ran towards the direction of the sound of water, running desperately.

Lu Youlin was in a hurry, opened his mouth and shouted: "Hurry up, you must not let him jump into the river, otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to stop him."

Cheng Tianzang, Lu Liu and the others also knew how powerful they were, so they all speeded up quickly, trying to catch Xuanjizi first.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and a moment later, a big river appeared in front of everyone. Xuanjizi laughed, and used his last strength to speed up, and finally jumped, and fell into the river with a plop.

Lu Youlin didn't hesitate at all, and those who followed him also jumped into the river, and those who just came up behind him, many who knew water skills also jumped down, and began to search for Xuanjizi's whereabouts.

Lu Liu and Cheng Tianzang didn't dive into the water, they dispersed and searched for clues on the surrounding shores.

Two quarters of an hour later, Lu Youlin, who was drenched all over, landed on the shore. He had a gloomy complexion, cold eyes, and was extremely angry in his heart, because under their noses, he was once again run away by Xuan Jizi.

This result is too unbelievable. You must know that there are hundreds of Lu Youlin and the others, and they are all elites. In the face of this kind of strength, they will be run away by Xuan Jizi. This is a very incompetent act. Dare to imagine how to face Yang Lin after going back.

Lu Liu, Cheng Tianzang and the others were silent. They all knew that Lu Youlin must be in a terrible mood at the moment. It was best to let the other party calm down and not disturb him.

After being silent for a while, Lu Youlin was still not reconciled, he gritted his teeth and said, "Come on, let's go downstream right away. If we go fast, we might be able to block the mystery."

Cheng Tianzang opened his mouth slightly, trying to persuade him, but was stopped by Lu Liu.

Lu Youlin was obviously angry at the moment, and he wouldn't listen to persuasion, so don't make fun of yourself and let the other party make troubles.

Cheng Tianzang also wanted to understand this point, so he didn't insist anymore, and the group of people quickly went downstream under the leadership of Lu Youlin.

But it's a pity, when Lu Youlin and the others rushed downstream, they only found bloodstains on one bank, and they obviously left long ago.

At this point, Lu Youlin completely gave up. He sighed helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "We are incompetent. After we go back, we will just wait for the young master's punishment."

Hearing this, whether it was Cheng Tianzang, Lu Liu, or other warriors, they all showed worried expressions. Yang Lin's methods were too ruthless, and no one wanted to learn from them. When they thought of the possibility of suffering, everyone present turned pale. Shen, the atmosphere immediately became dull.

…………

At this moment, Yang Lin was tasting tea, and in front of him, there was a chessboard. Yang Lin had become interested in playing chess recently, so he played with himself to have fun.

While he was enjoying himself, some guards came to report that Lu Youlin, Cheng Tianzang, Lu Liu and others were asking to see him.

Yang Lin asked the guards to bring him in, but he kept looking at the chessboard.

Not long after, Lu Youlin, Cheng Tianzang, and Lu Liu were brought in. When the three of them saw Yang Lin, they swallowed subconsciously, their faces turned slightly pale, and they looked guilty.

When they got closer, the three of them saluted respectfully: "This subordinate has met you, Young Master."

Yang Lin said without raising his head, "Excuse me."

Hearing this, Lu Youlin and the three of them thanked in unison, then stood obediently, and looked at Yang Lin hesitantly.

Yang Lin asked casually: "How is the matter going? Is Xuanjizi dead or captured alive?"

Hearing this, Lu Youlin and the others looked at each other, but were speechless for a while.

But even if it was difficult to speak, they still had to answer. After hesitating for a while, Lu Youlin answered bravely: "Young master, the mission failed, Xuanjizi escaped."

Hearing this answer, Yang Lin looked surprised, raised his head and glanced at the three of them, and said, "What did you say? The mission failed. I heard it right, right?"

With a plop, Lu Youlin knelt down and admitted his mistake, "This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me, Young Master."

Seeing that Lu Youlin was kneeling, Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu on the side knelt down too.

Yang Lin said lightly: "Be clear, what's going on?"

Lu Youlin didn't dare to hide anything, so he told the story in detail. After he finished speaking, he lowered his head in shame, with a face full of embarrassment.

After Yang Lin heard the ins and outs, he was also a little speechless. Xuanjizi's luck was too good. Just when he was about to fail, he happened to meet a big river, which gave him a chance to escape. Such a result is really satisfying. Unexpected.

Speaking of which, Lu Youlin and the others couldn't be blamed for this matter, after all, there was too much element of accident.

But the facts were so, but Yang Lin didn't mean to make an exception. Yang Lin always only looked at the results. As for the process, he didn't care too much. Since the mission failed, Lu Youlin and the others would have to accept punishment.

If you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded, and if you have made mistakes, you will be punished.This is Yang Lin's consistent way of governing his subordinates and absolutely cannot be changed.

At that moment Yang Lin said coldly: "Lu Youlin, you go to the punishment room to get a hundred iron whips yourself, and you don't have to worry about hunting down Xuanjizi."

Lu Youlin's pupils shrank, and he was terrified. The punishment of a hundred iron lashes was not so easy to survive. Although it would not be life-threatening, severe suffering was inevitable. When he thought about what he would face next Lu Youlin's scalp became numb due to the punishment.

Fortunately, Lu Youlin was not the only one who was unlucky, Yang Lin immediately said: "Cheng Tianzang, Lu Liu, you two are not doing well, this month's antidote is delayed by one day."

Forgive me, son.

After hearing their punishment, Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu were shocked and begged for mercy loudly.
