After the immortal disappeared

In fact, these three people have strong cultivation and each has his own specialties. Unfortunately, they were unlucky and ran into Aunt Zhu who was lurking in the forest.

In order to catch these three guys running around, the Queen of the Underground Spiders perfectly missed the professional skills competition between Dong Rui and Cao Wendao, secretly feeling sorry.

"Can't keep them." Dong Rui didn't care about the life and death of these three people. He pointed at them and said to No. 66, "It's yours."

No. 66 stepped forward and swallowed them one by one in three seconds without chewing.

Its mouth was not big, and its size was not big. Before the other demon puppets could see how it was swallowed, the three cocoons on the ground disappeared.

Aunt Zhu also looked sideways. With such a scavenger, it would be very convenient to destroy the corpse. Unlike her, it is easy to kill people but difficult to destroy the corpse.

"The big team is coming." Dong Rui said hurriedly, "I'll leave first!"

The last two words lingered, and the ghost ape had already taken him to the mud palace, and the other two demon puppets also followed him in spontaneously.

The snail toad's head sank, and it dived into the ground with the hard shell on its back.

Aunt Zhu looked around the messy battlefield, moved her eight legs, and disappeared into the dark night in the next second.

￥￥￥￥￥

Boom, there was a loud noise in the west, and everyone turned their heads and saw a thick smoke coming out of the sky.

There was an explosion?

The vibration spread from the direction of Taoxi to everyone's feet.

Qingyang's face changed. She personally stopped He Lingchuan, why did there be another explosion there?

Could it be that He Lingchuan's three hundred cavalrymen were just a trick, and someone else was chasing Cao Wendao?

No, it shouldn't be.

She knew Cao Wendao's ability very well. If anyone dared to chase him, he would be sending his head.

Unless He Lingchuan sent a whole army.

"What happened?" She said generously, "Go and have a look!"

Here, He Lingchuan was also secretly cursing Dong Rui in his heart, why did he make such a big fuss right at the beginning!

But he squeezed the horse's belly, and the mount shot out like an arrow, first occupying the downhill road.

Wanqi Feng and other elite cavalry followed closely behind, blocking the way tightly.

They blocked Qingyang the same way as Qingyang blocked them before.

"Most likely it's because of improper storage of gunpowder! Gunpowder explosions in the east expansion project have appeared everywhere!" He Lingchuan reined in his horse and turned back, "We disturbed the regent, these idiots deserve death, I will send someone to deal with them now."

This time it was his turn to speak in a rhythmic, calm and powerful manner, as if he really wanted to seek justice for Qingyang.

And the eastern suburbs of Tianshui City were originally a large construction site, with dug up yellow mud everywhere and materials piled up everywhere. Who dares to say that Taoxi didn't store anything, who dares to say that there was no explosives in that pile of things?

Irregular construction and improper storage, isn't that a common thing?

He forced the explosion of Taoxi to the project, and it actually made some sense.

"I'll go with Lord He." How could Qingyang not know that he was stalling for time? "Let's see what kind of explosives can be so powerful."

It's funny, just now she was stalling for time to let Cao Wendao escape, but now it's He Lingchuan who wants to delay her from going to the scene.

He Lingchuan coughed, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Master Regent, please."

After that, he turned around and rode.

He can be casual, but Zhao Song still has to bow to Qingyang first, make a "please" gesture, and then lead people to He Lingchuan, separating him and Qingyang into two groups.

Taoxi is not far away, this section of the road is only two miles away, but the ground is muddy, and the mounts often slip.

Soon, rich green appeared in everyone's vision.

The vegetation by the stream is always the densest.

The thick smoke has not yet dissipated, guiding the direction of everyone's progress.

Not long after, they rushed to the stream.

Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone was stunned.

There were two damaged carriages on the open space beside the stream. The horses pulling the carriages fell a few feet away, and the carriage parts were scattered everywhere.

One of the carriages was still burning.

Qingyang looked around with a stern face: "This doesn't look like a stockpile camp."

The streamside was empty, with only traces of a burning bonfire. Did Cao Wendao originally stay here?

Qingyang's men went to the carriage to check, and soon came back to report:

"Palace Master, there is a big pit on the ground with traces of an explosion. The temperature was very high at the time, but the explosives were not buried in the soil."

If it is not buried in the soil, how can it explode so strongly?

"The explosives used for opening up the mountain?"

Everyone dispersed to check, and soon someone reported:

"There are two bodies in the bushes more than 20 feet away, and they were indeed killed by the explosion."

More than 20 feet?

Qingyang frowned slightly, but He Lingchuan was calm and composed.

Yes, Dong Rui just told him that he and Cao Wendao were fighting while walking, and the battlefield had moved and was no longer beside the stream.

He Lingchuan was also quite interested in what the duel between the demon puppet masters would look like, but he thought it would not be a standing battle.

There were fallen trees everywhere, showing that the battle was fierce; there were several pools of dark red or light green mucus on the ground, like blood flowing out of the bodies of some creatures.

Someone or a demon was injured, and the injury was serious.

Qingyang frowned.

She recognized that the dead bodies were Cao Wendao's disciples. She had seen them following Cao Wendao.

Since the disciples died by the stream, what about Cao Wendao?

Could he successfully retreat?

Qingyang's men also found three flying snake corpses in the nearby bushes.

Zhao Song saw it for the first time, picked it up and looked it over, and was a little curious: "This is the first time I've seen a snake with wings. This thing looks weird, is it born like this?"

"It doesn't look like it was born." As soon as He Lingchuan saw the flying snake corpses, he knew that most of the injuries on their bodies were caused by the bat demon puppets.

I didn't see any of Dong Rui's demon puppets here, so they should have moved to the next battlefield with him.

Dong Rui knew that once the explosion occurred, Qingyang and He Lingchuan would rush over.

In order not to be disturbed, he and Cao Wendao fought and retreated, and the battlefield was no longer by the stream.

Wanqi Feng and Wanqi Liang suddenly carried two people and ran over from the dark forest: "These two fell in the forest and were unconscious!"

It seemed that they were knocked unconscious by the explosion.

"Okay!" He Lingchuan was refreshed and said before Qingyang, "Hand them over to Commander Zhao!"

Zhao Song was sent by King Yao to protect him and represented the king's power. Now that something like this happened, Zhao Song had the right to interrogate the two captives.

Qingyang frowned. Although he knew that the two were disciples of Cao Wendao, there was no reason to ask them to come.

Besides, how could he easily hand over the captives who fell into He Xiao's hands?

Zhao Song said: "Check the injuries."

Before these two people speak, don't let them die.

Two medical soldiers came forward, felt the pulse, turned up their eyelids and listened to the heartbeat, and fiddled with it for a while before reporting: "Maybe they were knocked unconscious by the explosion, and their internal organs were shaken, but they are not in danger of life."

He Lingchuan knew that these two people were probably far away from the carriage at that time, so they saved their lives.

Qingyang's men had been observing the surroundings, and at this time they came to report: "The traces of fighting went all the way to the northwest."

"Chase!" She didn't care about the life and death of Cao Wendao's disciples. But she had a bad premonition. Can Cao Wendao still be reliable this time?

Everyone ran a hundred feet to the northwest, and Yuan Xuan found a mark on the big tree on the side of the road: "Palace Master, Ah Qi left a mark and went to the north."

Before Qingyang came forward to intercept He Lingchuan, he sent three men to find Cao Wendao, and Ah Qi was one of them.

The mark he left behind, of course, pointed to Cao Wendao.

Yuan Xuan whispered in Qingyang's ear again: "There is no news from Ah Qi and the other two. I sent a message to them just now, but there was no response."

Qingwei naturally had some instant short-distance communication methods.

Qingyang immediately asked him: "What were the last three messages they sent back?"

"There is movement in the forest to the north."

"Something is following us!"

"And there is one last one..." Yuan Xuan recalled, "Go north, it's very close."

Qingyang immediately turned around and said to everyone: "Go north."

He Lingchuan was stunned: "Wait, shouldn't we go northwest?"

Qingyang saw that his eyes flickered slightly and his expression was a little nervous, so he naturally had to go north more firmly.

Others had no choice but to accompany him.

After walking north for more than a quarter of an hour, Ah Qi's mark appeared twice. It can be seen that it was carved in a hurry, and the content was the same:

There is a strong enemy, go north!

Finally, they came to an open space, bare ground with few plants, which might be saline-alkali land.

There were traces of trampling and dragging on the ground. Three flying knives were nailed to the trunks of two small trees not far away, and three or four branches were broken.

Not long ago, a battle took place here.

Qingyang knew what experience he had at a glance:

This battle lasted for a short time, and the fighting method was unconventional - there was no blood.

The opponent was very strong, and her men were missing.

She glanced at He Lingchuan, who looked normal and was also observing the surroundings.

Was this arranged by He Xiao? In terms of time, it was unlikely; but she knew in her heart that it was probably him!

And what about Cao Wendao?

There was no sign of him and the demon puppet here.

Just then, a strong wind blew, and there seemed to be a few roars in the wind, looming.

"Southwest!" Qingyang looked up quickly, "Let's go!"

However, just as everyone got on the horse, several loud noises came from the southwest!

Explosion, explosion again.

And this time the explosion was unprecedented in intensity. Even at such a distance, the ground beneath everyone's feet was shaking.

Without Qingyang's urging, everyone rode their horses to the southwest.

The explosion had just occurred, which meant that the conflict was not over yet. If they rushed there now, they might see the person involved.

Four miles west, there was another open space.

The scene here was even more frightening than that by the Taoxi River.

Even Zhao Song couldn't help but shrink his neck: "What kind of monster is this?"

A huge pit was blown out of the ground, and inside it lay a huge monster with a dark red body and spotted patterns. It could be up to three feet long, and its mouth was big enough to fit more than a dozen people at the same time!

But this big fish just fell to the ground helplessly and quietly, with a big hole in its belly and its intestines all over the ground.

The fish blood that flowed out filled a puddle, and the fishy smell was pungent.

Everyone gathered around the pit and looked at it, and they all felt incredible. How could such a big monster appear around Tianshui City, and it was not registered?

It's really scary when you think about it.

He Lingchuan subconsciously touched its belly: "It's still hot."
