Kyushu · Endless Nagato

Chapter 29
"You're right, but maybe it's better for us to follow half a mile before we stop," An Xingmian said. "After half a mile, we'll be able to enter the forest, so it's easier to escape."

"The two little dolls are quite smart," Xumizi's voice came from a distance, "For your cleverness, I will kill you later, at least to give you a chance to repent your life before you die."

"Thank you." An Xingmian smiled slightly.

Xu Mizi walked back slowly, with a steady gait, as if he was not at all worried that the two young men who dared to follow him would run away.He walked up to the two of them, and didn't manipulate the corpse servants to surround them, but just looked up and down the man and woman coldly.But soon, his eyes stayed on Xue Huaiqing's face, with a slightly complicated expression.

"It's you," he nodded, "you've grown up."

"It's me, hello senior," Xue Huaiqing still saluted him politely, "I haven't seen you for many years."

"Yeah, I haven't seen you for many years," Xumizi said without the slightest sense of intimacy. It seemed that to him, only Jiang Qinyin was important, and Jiang Qinyin's disciples were nothing but worthless. "Your master is dead, right?"

Such a direct question, An Xingmian thought, without any tact, this person's personality is really weird enough.

"Master has passed away for more than a year." Xue Huaiqing replied.

"Well, she died of illness...but you didn't use her corpse as a corpse servant," Xu Mizi frowned slightly, "With Jiang Qinyin's physique, she can make an excellent poison sac, so it doesn't need to be wasted."

"I used it, but her body was destroyed a few months ago, so I buried her in the ground to let her sleep forever." Xue Huaiqing said.

A razor-like coldness suddenly flashed in Xumizi's eyes. Although it was only fleeting, An Xingmian already felt a murderous aura.That is the aura that only the top master can exude.

"Tell me who the person who destroyed her body is and where he lives." Xu Mizi's voice was calm, but the meaning in the words was self-evident.There is no doubt that he will use the most horrible and cruel methods to torture this person, let him live to enjoy the taste of hell.

"I have already killed them all," Xue Huaiqing replied.

"Fortunate for them," Xumizi snorted, and then dropped the subject, "Why are you following me? Do you think I won't kill you because of your master's sake?"

"I don't think so. I know a little about you from Master." Xue Huaiqing shook his head, "But even if you want to kill me, I have to find you, because I have questions to ask you."

She paused, then pointed to An Xingmian: "It's not just me, he also has very important questions and wants to ask you for help."

Xu Mizi didn't seem to expect her to answer like this, he was slightly taken aback, and then he looked up to the sky and laughed, his voice was so full of energy that it hurt people's ears.

"You added the corpse dance technique to this male doll, pretended to be a corpse servant and brought him into the seminar, and then followed me all the way. You actually want me, a murderous big devil, to help you?" Xu Mizi He laughed loudly, "Very well, I like this kind of daring, I don't have to kill you, and I can also consider answering your questions. But..."

The two of them didn't say a word, waiting for Xu Mizi to finish his "but".However, Xu Mizi didn't continue talking, but his corpse servant had already started to act.A tall female corpse servant rushed straight to An Xingmian, with all five fingers of her right hand stretched out, she slammed into the top of his head.The corpse servant had long and sharp nails, and there was a faint blue light on them, indicating that the nails were highly poisonous.If this grasp is real, it will be enough for An Xingmian.

An Xingmian's feet didn't move at all, and he didn't dodge half a step. Seeing that the corpse servant's poisonous nails were about to scratch his scalp, he raised his hands. The seemingly lazy movement was as fast as lightning, and he grasped it all at once. The corpse servant's wrist spit out forcefully, and the corpse servant's right wrist was dislocated.Then he raised his leg and kicked the corpse servant's waist firmly, the corpse servant was kicked several feet away and fell to the ground.

"I didn't really like beating women, but since it's a corpse, there's no need to classify men and women." An Xingmian said to himself.

Xu Mizi did not immediately use the corpse dance technique to manipulate the fallen corpse servant to stand up.He just sent two more squires: one with a huge axe in his hand, and the other with a spear.Seeing this, Xue Huaiqing was about to use her corpse servant to assist her, but An Xingmian shook her head slightly and winked at her, meaning: This is a separate test for me.

Xue Huaiqing understood, and hurriedly retreated to the side. The two corpse servants had already attacked An Xingmian from left to right.They all use long weapons, and their moves are ferocious, and each move is accompanied by a strong wind. No matter if they are swept by an ax or stabbed by the tip of a spear, they will definitely feel very uncomfortable.But An Xingmian's movements were exceptionally quick, and he was able to dodge and maneuver in the snare of spears and axes with ease.Not long after, he grabbed the weak point where the corpse servant who was using the ax was too hard to hold back, leaned forward, swept across with one leg, and kicked the corpse servant's right knee.The corpse servant with the gun lost his companion's support, and An Xingmian quickly found a loophole and removed the joint of his right arm.

"It's a pity that I still can't hold the force perfectly." Xu Mizi shook his head.

"Because you snatched these corpse servants from those two old men, and the training time is too short," An Xingmian said sincerely, "If it is the corpse servants you have been with you all the time, I will not be able to deal with them." Much more difficult."

"I don't need your comfort." Xu Mizi sneered.With this sneer, six of the remaining ten corpse servants surrounded him together, two with empty hands and four with weapons.The other four corpse servants stood at a certain position on the side, and it seemed that they were planning to use secret techniques to attack from the side.

Suddenly, the figure flickered, and Xue Huaiqing brought her only corpse servant and An Xingmian to stand together.Xu Mizi frowned slightly, but said nothing.

"He and I are in the same group, so we came to accept the test together." Xue Huaiqing said.

"As you wish." Xu Mizi shook his finger.

This battle is much more difficult than before.Although with Xue Huaiqing's help, it was three against six after all, not to mention that Xue Huaiqing's own skills were not very good, and she mainly relied on the corpse servant for defense.Soon the situation became clear, Xue Huaiqing and the corpse servants joined forces to deal with two enemies, but An Xingmian was able to defeat four of them, and the skills of these four corpse servants were stronger than the three he had fought against before. many.

This power comes from the other four corpse dancers who have always stood outside the battle group and used them to cast secret spells.They have been using auxiliary secret techniques on the fighters to enhance their strength and sensitivity, and according to the characteristics of the joint techniques that An Xingmian is good at, they have made the skin of these fighters very oily.An Xingmian once or twice found an opportunity to twist the opponent's wrist, but the tentacles were too smooth, and she couldn't use force at all, so she had to miss the opportunity.

And the other stunt he has mastered - waiting for an opportunity to hit some blood nodes on a person's body, temporarily paralyzing some limbs or causing unbearable pain - is also completely ineffective in front of the corpse servant.The blood on the corpse servant's body is not live blood, and there is no pain, and hitting some key parts will not cause special effects.Facing such a group of opponents, An Xingmian felt helpless and had nothing to say.What's more, he didn't dare to do his best to deal with the four corpse servants in front of him, because he had to leave some leeway to guard against the sneak attack of the secret technique.

Turning his head to look at Xue Huaiqing, the situation is not too optimistic.Although this is a young corpse dancer who has practiced very hard and is stronger than most of her peers, she is facing the strongest of this era after all. A smile.Fortunately, she has been using this tall corpse servant for a long time, and it is finally easier to use than the newly snatched one by Xu Mizi, and Xu Mizi seems to be a little merciful to her, and spends most of his energy on the safety of her body. On Xingmian.

An Xingmian was secretly anxious. Ever since he learned the articulation technique, he had never encountered an opponent who was not afraid of pain like a walking corpse.Of course, he believed in his mind and agility. If he really couldn't fight, turning around and running away might not be hopeless, but he couldn't run away because there was Xue Huaiqing.This girl took the initiative to stand up to help him fight, and of course he couldn't leave her alone.

As he saw the tricks, countless thoughts turned in his mind, thinking hard about the way for the two to escape together.But at the same time, he is also reluctant to leave, because the key to saving Nagato may be held in Xumizi's memory, if he misses Xumizi this time, I'm afraid he will never be able to find this strange person again.

Slightly distracted, his steps slowed down a little, his shoulder was swept by a corpse servant's copper mace, although he hastily lowered his shoulder and was not hit firmly, he still felt a sharp pain in his flesh.When Xue Huaiqing saw that he was hit, she was also a little flustered. The corpse servant couldn't dodge in time, and was slashed on the shoulder with a knife, and black blood flowed out.

"I thought you guys had some great abilities, but I didn't expect it to be so unbearable," Xu Mizi's voice was full of contempt, "Young people are becoming more and more useless these days. They have little ability, but they are very active in dying."

Xue Huaiqing gritted her teeth, did not respond, and continued to support herself with all her strength, but An Xingmian's heart moved slightly.What Xu Mizi said about "sending death" gave him a little inspiration. If he continues to fight with those corpse servants like he is now, he will be defeated sooner or later, but if he dares to "send death", he may still be able to win by chance.

Thinking of this, he lifted his spirits and stopped paying attention to Xue Huaiqing's situation for the time being, but began to plan the next adventure.The corpse servant is not afraid of pain, and An Xingmian, who has undergone Nagato's penance, is also very able to bear the pain. He quickly planned the steps: first step by step and fight while retreating, slowly approaching the direction of Sumeru, and then pretending that his steps are disordered , fighting hard, fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, and when Xu Mizi was relaxing, he suddenly exploded and directly attacked him.

This is indeed a very dangerous plan, but it is feasible, because Xu Mizi is too proud, he may not have thought that An Xingmian would dare to challenge him directly, that may be the only chance.If Xu Mizi could be injured and interfere with his Corpse Dance, Xue Huaiqing would be able to find an opportunity to deal with those pestering corpse servants first, at least making the situation less passive.

Before he had time to think about it, An Xingmian made up his mind.In order not to make Xumizi suspicious, he deliberately moved the corpse servants who were besieging him a short distance away, and then approached Xumizi little by little in a circle.Twenty feet, fifteen feet, ten feet...the distance is almost the same.He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, deliberately pretended to step on a stone under his feet, and slipped his steps, just in time to be punched in the chest by a corpse servant.With a bang, his body was sent flying, and he fell heavily to the ground.

It hurts.Even with the will of a long-door monk, this can give people a feeling that all internal organs are squeezed together, but An Xingmian still endured the pain, closed his eyes and pretended to faint.As long as he finds a flaw, in an instant, he can try his best to sneak attack on Xu Mizi, success or failure depends on it.

Sure enough, Xu Mizi did not doubt him, but sneered again with contempt.The corpse servants slowed down and walked towards him, not knowing whether they planned to kill him with a knife or arrest him first.Xue Huaiqing in the distance didn't know what was going on at this time, and estimated that the situation was more dangerous, but at this moment, he couldn't care so much anymore, so he had to bite the bullet and shoot Xu Mizi.

An Xingmian's palms were covered with cold sweat.He secretly accumulated strength, counting the numbers silently in his heart, one, two, three... Just when he was ready to jump up and rush towards Xu Mizi, a sudden sound came from his ear.

That was the whistling sound of sharp arrows passing through the air.A sharp arrow shot from a high place, a sharp arrow shot from the hard bow that Yuren used to.

Xue Huaiqing, who was almost desperate, also heard the sound of the bow and arrow breaking through the air.She looked up in surprise, and found that Xu Mizi had moved a little bit, and an arrow had been inserted in the place where he was still standing.

The second sound, the third sound... Seven or eight arrows were shot from a high place one after another, and each arrow was steadily aimed at Sumeru, not only with impressive accuracy, but also with impeccable speed and strength.With Xumizi's ability, he also appeared in a panic when dodging these arrows, especially the last arrow, which just flew past his scalp and cut off a few strands of his hair.Judging by the situation, if he shoots another round, maybe he will be injured a little bit.

But Xu Mizi was experienced in many battles after all, so he was not flustered, and quickly recalled all the corpse servants.The corpse servants formed a circle around him, ready to use their bodies to resist the impact of sharp arrows at any time.

"Good archery skills," Xu Mizi didn't look angry, but rather appreciated, "Since you're here, let's show up and see."

At this time, An Xingmian and Xue Huaiqing could breathe a sigh of relief.An Xingmian got up from the ground nonchalantly, patted the dust, and Xue Huaiqing also walked over slowly.

"It's a good plan, but it's a pity that we didn't have time to implement it," Xue Huaiqing said, "Who will help us?"

An Xingmian smiled: "It's my predestined big magic star, but I didn't expect that one day he would be able to help me. It can be seen that life is always unpredictable."

The two of them looked at the direction where the sharp arrow was coming from, and saw a white trail across the sky, a middle-aged feathered man descended from the sky, retracting his wings with a gloomy face.This is exactly the Yuren Fengqiuke who has been following An Xingmian and trying to protect him, but has not been appreciated at all.An Xingmian recalled her footprints after entering the Illusion Forest. She was almost careful every step of the way, but she didn't realize that she was being followed by Feng Qiuke at all, and she didn't know where this person was hiding in the seminar. It's a bit embarrassing.But at this moment, he felt more fortunate, without this lingering Feng Qiuke, it would be hard to say how the battle would end today, at least he probably wouldn't be able to get away with Xue Huaiqing.

He explained the origin of Feng Qiuke to Xue Huaiqing in the shortest sentence, and Feng Qiuke had already come to Xu Mizi.The two were silent for a long time, you looked at me, I looked at you, neither of them spoke.Feng Qiuke did not continue to attack Xumizi, but Xumizi's corpse servants all stepped aside so that the two could face each other.

"I think the two of them seem to know each other." Xue Huaiqing said a little confused.

"I think so too," An Xingmian nodded. "Speaking of which, although Mr. Feng taught me kung fu, I hardly knew anything about him. I didn't expect him to know this old monster. Anyway, with him here, we It's probably safe."

Xu Mizi and Feng Qiuke stood facing each other, surrounded by dead silence.After a long time, it was Xumizi who spoke first: "For many years, I have always hoped to make you my corpse servant, but it is a pity that the disaster will last for thousands of years, but you always live so well, and you always appear in front of me alive and well every time. , against me."

"I've always hoped that you would die soon," Feng Qiuke snorted coldly, "If you die, there will be a lot less short-lived people in the world for no reason. It's a pity that you're still making people year after year. walking dead."

Sparks seemed to sparkle in the eyes of both of them, but no one acted rashly, perhaps because they knew each other's strength too well, knowing that the two were evenly matched, and it was difficult to tell the winner.

"I remembered, he might be the 'that person' my master mentioned." Xue Huaiqing said suddenly.

"That person? Who is it?" An Xingmian asked.

"My master once said that Xumizi has only had one real opponent for many years. He has fought fiercely with that person more than ten times, but he has never been able to tell the winner." Xue Huaiqing said, "According to this, This guy is pretty awesome."

"He's really good." An Xingmian snorted, remembering every time she tried to challenge Feng Qiuke but failed miserably.In fact, with his talent and smart mind, it was already difficult to meet opponents, but all his martial arts were taught by Feng Qiuke, and the opponent knew every move of him, so naturally he couldn't please him.
