The Scourge of Rebirth

Chapter 978
You must know that the poison Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu are exposed to can be said to be extremely vicious. Once it occurs, the internal organs will be in pain. That kind of pain is not unbearable at all, let alone being tortured for a whole day up.

At this time, Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu were terrified, but they also regretted it. If they knew it would be like this, they should work harder when dealing with Xuanjizi and others. In this way, they will not be run away by Xuanjizi up.

It's a pity that it's useless to say anything now. There is no regret medicine in the world, which can't change the result. Therefore, Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu must be punished.

Yang Lin ignored the two people's begging for mercy, waved his hands away and said: "Okay, there is no business for you here, you all step back."

Hearing this, Lu Youlin, Cheng Tianzang, and Lu Liu had no choice but to leave.

As soon as the three of them went outside, they glared angrily, wishing to kill each other.

Lu Youlin gritted his teeth and said, "It's all the fault of you two bastards. If you hadn't dragged your feet, I wouldn't have been punished. I've made a note of this grudge, and I'll definitely repay it tenfold in the future."

Lu Liu was so angry that his face turned blue, and he snorted coldly: "You fart, it's clear that we were implicated by you. If you hadn't asked us two for help, Brother Cheng and I wouldn't have ended up like this. How dare you now?" It is really unreasonable for the wicked to sue first."

Cheng Tianzang immediately echoed: "That's the reason, Lu Youlin, let's wait and see, I won't take it lightly."

Naturally, Lu Youlin was not afraid, and after a sneer, he strode away, too lazy to continue talking nonsense.

Looking at Lu Youlin's back, Cheng Tianzang and Lu Liu were furious. If it weren't for the serious consequences of their actions, they would never have swallowed their anger.

Lu Liu took a sip, and then said: "Brother Cheng, Lu Youlin is too much of a bully, we must teach him a lesson, otherwise outsiders will think we are easy to bully."

Cheng Tianzang nodded heavily at first, and then said in a deep voice: "There is no rush to get revenge on Lu Youlin. The most important thing right now is to think about how to get through the difficulties. There are still five days before the date of distributing the antidote. In the meantime, we must find a way to make the young master take back his order, otherwise, the two of us will be shocked."

Lu Liu nodded and said: "What Brother Cheng said is true, but what should we do, you must know that the young master always keeps his word, and rarely changes his mind."

Cheng Tianzang said in a deep voice: "For the current plan, we must make great contributions as soon as possible. In this way, if the merits and demerits are balanced, we have a great chance of overcoming the difficulties."

Hearing this, Lu Liu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized: "Yes, we have to make great contributions."

But immediately afterwards, Lu Liu said with a distressed face: "But it is not so easy to make great contributions. I have no clue now, and I don't know what your opinion is, Brother Cheng."

Cheng Tianzang replied: "The opportunity to do meritorious service is right in front of you. Didn't Xuanji run away? As long as we catch this Taoist priest, you must be very happy. In this case, our previous sins should be forgiven."

Lu Liu gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Cheng, you really deserve it. This is a good way, so let's do it."

Cheng Tianzang said: "It's not too late. Xuanjizi was hunted down by us before, and he must be in a bad state at the moment. Now is the best time to deal with him. If the time delays for too long, let Xuanjizi recharge his energy and recharge his batteries. Then things won’t work out.”

Lu Liu stroked his chin and pondered for a while, then said: "We divide our troops into two groups and act separately, which will be much more efficient. Once we find something, we will notify the other party immediately."

Cheng Tianzang nodded in agreement. Immediately afterwards, the two of them went to gather their subordinates and started searching for the whereabouts of Xuanjizi.

At this time, Xuanjizi was hiding in a tree hole to heal his injuries. Not long ago, he was besieged and killed by Lu Youlin and others. Although he escaped by luck, his injuries were very serious. There is no healing medicine on him at all, so he can only deal with it briefly, and then go out to find herbs.

Xuanjizi is still hiding in the back mountain area of ​​the Town God's Temple. He will not go out unless necessary. It is too dangerous outside. There are spies everywhere in the city, and there is no way to hide. Xuanjizi is sure that if he Get out, it will soon be exposed.

After hastily bandaging the wound, Xuanjizi left the tree hole and began to search for herbs all over the mountains and plains.

Fortunately, Xuanjizi knows some medical skills. As long as he finds herbs, Xuanjizi has the confidence to stabilize his injury. After waiting for a few days, the reinforcements from Wudang Mountain should be able to arrive.

Thinking of this, Xuanjizi lifted his spirits and moved forward diligently.

About half an hour later, Lu Liu came down to the back mountain with a group of helpers. Lu Liu was also shrewd. He knew that the most dangerous places were often the safest, so there was a high possibility that Xuanjizi would still stay in the back mountain of the Town God's Temple. among.

Of course, these are just guesses at the moment. As for whether this is true, you have to find out carefully. Luck is very important, and everything can only be done as best as possible.

Lu Liu glanced at the forest in front of him, and then told his subordinates: "Listen, everyone, look for me carefully, and don't try to be lazy. If you cheat and play tricks at this juncture, then don't blame me for turning your back on me!" ruthless."

A team leader patted his heart and assured him: "Sir, don't worry, the brothers all know the seriousness and will not mess around."

Lu Liu snorted coldly and said: "I hope so. I've already said the ugly words. It's up to you whether you listen or not. Anyway, don't blame me for turning your back on me. Now you are divided into three teams. One team is led by me personally, and the other two teams The team was led by Wang Xiong and Ji Cong."

We use fireworks as a sign. Once you find Xuanjizi, don't act rashly. Send a signal to notify others immediately. Those who see the signal will rush over immediately, and try to catch the Taoist priest Xuanjizi in one fell swoop.

Wang Xiong, Ji Cong and the others responded loudly, and then they divided into three groups and dispersed slowly.

Time passed in a hurry, and two quarters of an hour passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, Xuanjizi was still looking for herbs carefully, unaware that the pursuers were getting closer and closer to him.

Lu Liu led people to search continuously, but unfortunately they found nothing, but the team led by Ji Cong had an unexpected harvest. They accidentally found some bloodstains, and then searched along the direction of the bloodstains, and were very lucky to find it. The trace of Xuanjizi.

To be honest, Ji Cong, the person involved, couldn't believe this result. He was also very surprised that his luck would be so good this time, which was really unexpected.

Ji Cong and his group hid cautiously. On a rugged mountain road a few hundred meters away, Xuanjizi was looking for herbs. Due to the long distance between the two sides, Xuanjizi did not find Ji Cong and others. figure.

A man said anxiously: "Captain, let's quickly reflect the signal to inform others, we can't let people run away."

Ji Cong shook his head and objected: "No, the situation is favorable to us now. We can secretly monitor Xuanjizi. Once a signal is sent, it will immediately arouse the other party's alert. That would be very bad, and it will easily scare away the enemy."

What should be done then?
The subordinates all looked at Ji Cong eagerly, they had no choice.

Ji Cong thought for a while, and then said: "I will bring two people to monitor Xuanjizi closely. If Xuanjizi leaves here, we will leave a mark along the way. The rest of the people will disperse and inform Mr. Lu of the situation here."

All the subordinates nodded in agreement, then obeyed the order, carefully left here, and went to look for Lu Liu.

And Ji Cong continued to monitor Xuanji with two more clever hands.

Fortunately, this back mountain is not very big, so Lu Liu got the news very quickly. Suddenly, Lu Liu was very happy and rushed to join Ji Cong.

When Lu Liu saw Ji Cong, it was already three quarters of an hour later, because during this time, Xuanjizi had been walking around, not staying in one place for too long, and his whereabouts were erratic, making it difficult to find.

As soon as he saw Ji Cong, Lu Liu couldn't wait to ask: "Ji Cong, where is Xuanjizi?"
Ji Cong pointed to a big tree in the distance and replied: It's in the tree hole of that big tree, the entrance is covered, and we are far away, so we can't see clearly.

Lu Liu looked in the direction Ji Cong pointed, then nodded slowly. He also saw the entrance of the tree hole, but it was blocked by many branches. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice it at all.

Lu Liu slowly withdrew his gaze, and then asked in a deep voice: Ji Cong, did you read correctly, is the person hiding in the tree hole really a mysterious person?The stakes are so high that there is no room for error.

Ji Cong said with certainty: "It's absolutely unmistakable, I remember Xuanjizi's face very clearly, and I will definitely not admit my mistake."

Hearing this reply, Lu Liu was completely relieved, then he frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "Ji Cong, take a few people to inform Cheng Tianzang right now, and tell him everything about the situation here, At the same time let Cheng Tianzang go back to the mansion to mobilize troops, this time we must catch Xuanjizi, and never let him go again."

Ji Cong immediately nodded yes, and then quickly left with two subordinates.

The situation at this moment made the fireworks signal set before useless, because the fireworks were too loud to be hidden from anyone.

The current situation is greatly beneficial to Lu Liu's side. With the previous lessons, Lu Liu no longer dares to be careless, and is ready to mobilize a large number of people to surround Xuanjizi, and never give the other party a chance.

Cheng Tianzang arrived soon after getting the news, and Cheng Tianzang also agreed with Lu Liu's method, so he also waited patiently.

An hour later, two thousand officers and soldiers arrived at the back mountain, and then surrounded them little by little.

Xuanjizi, who was resting in the tree hole, shook his body and opened his eyes suddenly, with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

Xuanjizi's perception is also very strong. Just now, he seemed to sense that someone was approaching, and there were quite a few of them.

Xuanjizi immediately picked up the long sword on the side, slowly moved away the branches at the exit of the tree hole, and looked outside vigilantly.

Slowly, Xuanjizi's body began to stiffen, and his face was full of shock, because around the tree hole, all he could see were densely packed people, and they were officers and soldiers.

At this time, there are five or six hundred people who are bending their bows and setting arrows, aiming at the direction of the tree hole. Once the Polly arrow is fired, even Xuanjizi will not have the confidence to survive. It is because his current state is too bad , The injuries all over his body greatly reduced his strength.

Seeing Xuanjizi's shocked appearance, Lu Liu and Cheng Tianzang both burst out laughing with complacency on their faces.

After laughing, Lu Liu said loudly: "Xuan Jizi, you have seen the current situation. If you are sensible, you can surrender obediently. In this way, you can still save your life, otherwise you will only have a dead end."

Xuanjizi didn't speak, his expression changed, obviously hesitating.

Everyone is afraid of death, and Xuanjizi is no exception, but when he thinks of the many fellow disciples who have died tragically, Xuanjizi no longer has the idea of ​​surrendering. His complexion gradually becomes firm, showing a look of resignation to death.

"Fight!"

Xuanjizi let out a low growl silently, then he drew out his long sword, and with a sudden dash, he rushed out quickly.

When Lu Liu, Cheng Tianzang and others outside saw this scene, they immediately sneered.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Liu said to a silver-armored general: "General Song, you can do it now. Since the opponent is stubborn, then we will fulfill him."

This time it was Song Ke who led [-] officers and soldiers to support him.

Song Ke nodded slightly, and then ordered loudly: "Archers listen to the order, let me shoot the arrow."

As soon as the order came out, more than 500 archers immediately fired sharp arrows together, and all the sharp arrows flew towards Xuanjizi quickly.

Facing this scene, Xuanjizi's face was extremely serious. He shouted violently, swung his long sword frantically, and fended off the flying arrows. Unfortunately, there were too many sharp arrows, and Xuanjizi Still injured, he couldn't block all the sharp arrows at all.

Gradually, Xuanjizi began to be hit by arrows, first his arms, then his waist, and then his thighs. When the sharp arrows were over, Xuanjizi was hit by at least seven or eight arrows all over his body, looking extremely miserable.

When Cheng Tianzang, Lu Liu, Song Ke and others saw this scene, they all showed relaxed smiles and walked over slowly.

After getting closer, everyone realized that Xuanjizi was not dead yet, his eyes were wide open, and he was staring at them resentfully.

Song Ke couldn't help sighing: "It's really hard life, I can't die from this."

Lu Liu explained: General Song, you don't know something. Xuanjizi's skills are profound. When he reaches his level, he can protect his body and protect his life. , but as long as they are rescued in time, they can actually be saved.

Hearing this explanation, Song Ke was stunned.

Cheng Tianzang said, "What do you think, should we go up and see him off, or go back alive."

Song Ke and Lu Liu replied without hesitation: "I want to live."

Lu Liudao: "Young master also said before, it's better for us to catch the alive and go back. From this we can see that Xuanjizi has other uses for the young master. A living person is better than a dead person, and the credit is also greater."

Song Ke echoed: "That's right, that's what I mean too?"

Cheng Tianzang nodded and said: "If that's the case, let's treat him first, don't let this guy lose too much blood and die."

Naturally, no one would have any objections, so they sent the army doctor to treat Xuanjizi. After the work was done, Song Ke, Lu Liu, and Cheng Tianzang led their troops back to report.
