Horror start, I'm numb

Chapter 123 Searching for traces
Zhu Yangxin clenched the dagger tightly and hid behind the tree.

The monsters were less than ten meters away from her, and the village chief carefully searched for clues nearby with a torch in his hand.

"Look for them all."

With an order, the villagers dispersed to search for Zhu Yangxin in all directions.

A villager held out a torch to illuminate the situation ahead, while beating the weeds with a wooden stick.The direction he was walking happened to be the big tree where Zhu Yangxin was hiding.

Zhu Yangxin was tense all over, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

The villager noticed that there seemed to be trampled marks in front of him, and he couldn't see it clearly. He stepped forward cautiously, and pressed the torch even lower.

Zhu Yangxin quietly walked around behind the tree to make sure that other monsters did not notice her. Immediately, she sealed the monster's mouth and nose with a text chain, pierced the back of the monster's neck with all her strength, and at the same time pressed the monster firmly to the ground, and locked the monster with the text chain. Its body is tightly wrapped to avoid causing too much movement.

However, at this time, it has attracted the attention of nearby monsters, and they exchanged glances with each other, intending to come and check.

"Who's there?"

A monster shouted, and more monsters looked in this direction.

The monster under Zhu Yangxin quickly lost its vitality and stopped moving. She pulled out the bloody dagger, and saw four or five monsters approaching slowly through the gaps in the vegetation.

Her hands and legs trembled from time to time, and she didn't have time to recover her strength. These were the sequelae of her escape just now.With the current situation, it is too much to try to deal with so many monsters at the same time.

"what happened?"

At this time, the village chief also turned back from the other side.

"oops……"

Suddenly, a little monster slowly stood up from the bushes beside Zhu Yangxin, scratching its head.

"Xiao Zhuang?"

All eyes fell on the little monster.

"I... I just fell down."

He looked at the other monsters timidly, then turned to pick up the torch.When he lowered his head, his eyes met Zhu Yangxin.

Zhu Yangxin was suffocated for a moment, her mind went blank, almost foreseeing the tragic scene where Xiaozhuang exclaimed and exposed her whereabouts, and then she was besieged by a group of monsters.

"Are you okay?"

The village chief was suspicious.

As soon as he stepped forward, Xiao Zhuang immediately came up to him: "It's all right, I just tripped over a weed. Uncle Village Chief, let me help you find it."

The villagers glanced at the direction Xiaozhuang came from, not doubting him, and continued to search in other directions.

The village chief also looked at this side. He glanced at Xiaozhuang, keeping his expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhu Yangxin didn't dare to open up her senses to investigate. She had already discovered that although other dream races did not have her super perception power, if they were stronger, they could sense them when she probed.She still can't figure out the village chief's ability, and this juncture must not be discovered.

Seeing the torches go away one by one, Zhu Yangxin got up slowly, headed in another direction, and continued to hide in the mountains.

After walking a few steps, she faintly felt a pair of invisible eyes watching her.She turned around frequently, trying to find out where the snoopers were, but to no avail.Goosebumps all over her body stood up, and she quickly quickened her pace.

Accompanied by the "rustling" of the grass and trees, and a howling sound of breaking wind, Zhu Yangxin turned around instinctively and blocked it with a dagger. The two sharp blades collided, and Zhu Yangxin was shocked to take a step back, and then a tall black figure charged towards him. Zhu Yangxin gritted his teeth to dodge, and distanced himself from the shadow.

"Ah--"

Heiying snorted coldly, his thick voice was very recognizable, it was the village chief.

He really wasn't that easy to fool!
The village chief rolled over and launched heavy blows, each move aimed at killing Zhu Yangxin.Zhu Yangxin couldn't fight it head-on, so he could only do his best to avoid it.

Her heart felt salty, and she spit out another mouthful of blood.

Zhu Yangxin didn't care about other things, turned over to avoid the village chief's attack, and ran further into the forest.

Her hands and feet were flimsy, as if she might lose her strength at any moment, and the village chief chased after her, and the distance between them quickly narrowed.

Zhu Yangxin suffered a heavy blow on the back, flew out and landed on the bush, his whole body was stabbed in pain.

"go to hell."

The village chief's tone was cold, and he shot at the same time.

Zhu Yangxin no longer had the strength to stand up. At this moment, she felt that she was going to die here, so she closed her eyes tightly.

However, the expected pain did not come.

She opened her eyes, and another black figure appeared in front of her eyes, only a rough outline could be seen.

"Ow—"

The village chief's screams also seemed forbearing and low.

The short black figure took a step back, the blood-stained blade reflected the moonlight, exuding a chill.He turned his head slightly, and Zhu Yangxin saw his immature face and dark eyes - it was a boy.

Standing in front of the burly village chief, the boy looked like a dwarf, but the momentum of the two seemed to be evenly matched.

The village chief didn't seem to expect that he would be attacked by such a little guy, and all his furious emotions turned into fierce attacks, wishing he could slap the little guy into meatloaf.

Zhu Yangxin felt the changes in the atmosphere around him, and his face changed drastically.

Invisible black characters surrounded Zhu Yangxin and the boy.

The boy was not afraid at all, he jumped up, the blade slashed on the trapped formation, the black text nearby turned red, the aura in the trapped formation violently oscillated, and Zhu Yangxin's heart also trembled.

The hand raised the knife, and after a while, before the village chief took the next move, the trap showed signs of loosening.

The village head was stunned for a rare moment, showing an incredulous expression.He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and before the sleepy formation collapsed, he forcibly switched to the killing formation.

At the same time, the trapped formation has shattered like a spider web, and the boy broke through the formation with tyrannical strength.

The dazzling white light illuminated the surroundings, the boy pulled Zhu Yangxin up and ran forward quickly.

The buzzing sound penetrated Zhu Yangxin's consciousness, her legs gave way, and she knelt down on the ground, what she saw turned into pure white.A warm current leaked from her ears, Zhu Yangxin's mind went blank, and her consciousness was a little fuzzy.

The boy's face suddenly appeared in front of her, and she remained motionless without any reaction.

The boy reached out and covered her ears.

"Om-"

The only voice in this world, not high-pitched, not harsh, impacted her mind without any scruples, and her soul seemed to melt and disintegrate.

I don't know how long it took before she felt the boy's hand was cold.Clinging to her ear pinna did not warm the boy's hand.

Her vision was out of focus, her eyelids were heavily pressed, she rolled her eyes, and passed out.

The boy raised his eyes and looked at the village chief warily.Without the outer protection, the power of turning into a killing formation poured out, not only Zhu Yangxin and the boy were impacted, the village chief himself was also injured by the violent white light and buzzing sound, blood oozed from both eyes and ears , the body lost its former composure due to the huge impact.

On the other hand, the boy didn't look much abnormal.

"who are you?"

The village chief clenched his fists.
