Road edge float

Chapter 75: Chapter 75
In the middle of the night, a round of bright moon hung high in the western sky, emitting a gloomy and cold light, illuminating the sky with a silvery white.Weiqing City fell into a panic-stricken silence, only the whistling sound of the wind remained, teasing people's heartstrings.Under the whirling shadows of the trees, two black shadows galloped at an extremely fast speed, and landed without a sound.

Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan hid behind a bush, looking at the brightly lit Weiqing City Gate in the distance.

The entire city gate exudes a strange red light in the dense night. From a distance, it looks like a steaming red mist, lingering in the sky, especially in the dark.And it can be seen that the mist is centered on the city gate and continues to extend around the city wall. If you look down from the air, you can see that the red mist has surrounded the entire Weiqing City, forming an airtight encircled by .

However, in the north-south direction of the city, the red light was cut off at two points, as if being cut with scissors, and the red encircling circle was divided into two semi-circles.It turned out to be a big river flowing through the city, breaking it off.

"Is this a kind of induction formation?" Yan Kaiting asked, after the big battle just now, and another rush to escape, Yan Kaiting was still a little out of breath.

Fu Mingxuan nodded, and said: "If my guess is correct, this kind of magic circle should be called 'Red Haze', and it is a magic circle with a huge range of perception."

Fu Mingxuan pointed to the lingering red mist, and said: "This kind of red light that looks like air is actually composed of a kind of extremely small blood crystals. Refined from the blood essence of the blood crow's beast."

Hearing Fu Mingxuan mentioning the Blood Crow, Yan Kaiting also had a slightly terrified expression.

He never remembered such a beast as the blood crow. In the spring of last year, he took Li Liang and his party to a camp in the wilderness to inspect the local craft workshop. Returning to Yujing City to meet a new singer, he led the crowd back through the night. On the way, they were attacked by blood crows.

A blood crow, about the size of a falcon, feeds on blood. Although its attack is not as violent as ordinary wilderness murderers, the frightening thing is that the blood crow is so sensitive to blood that no other creature can match it. If a blood crow senses the smell of blood, it will face the attack of a whole group of blood crows. As for the crowd of birds in the middle of the black flock, it is no less than falling into the abyss of incomparable despair, and will only usher in being eaten up in the end ending.

Yan Kaiting remembered that after being attacked by blood crows in the wilderness, there were only 16 people in the group, and only Yan Kaiting himself returned to Yujing City. Li Liang also had two stronger subordinates. The bones eaten by the blood crows are gone.

Because at this time, Yan Kaiting felt guilty for nearly a month, and since then, the subordinates he took to the wilderness, regardless of their rank, were equipped with a spirit beast that they could control.

Looking at the red expanse in front of him now, Yan Kaiting was full of thoughts.With such a huge range of red blood crystals, how many blood crows need to be killed to lay such a circle?Yan Kaiting sneered in his heart, it seemed that in order to obtain such an insignificant life as his own, the other party also did a lot of tricks.

"It seems that the center point of the magic circle is above the city gate. If the city gate is destroyed, can the defense line be broken?"

Yan Kaiting asked, his idea was to directly destroy the city gate and make the magic circle useless.

Fu Mingxuan pondered for a while, shook his head, and said: "No, if you want to destroy the city gate, you and I must go forward. If I guessed correctly, the center of the magic circle must be enshrined The blood of the two of us, as long as we encounter the red haze, even if we destroy the magic circle and escape, it will definitely attract swarms of blood crows in the wilderness."

Yan Kaiting nodded, and continued: "In this way, even if the two of us are not eaten by the blood crow, we will be slowed down and caught up by the people behind."

Fu Mingxuan's eyes reflected red mist, and his thoughts sank for a moment.

Yan Kaiting carefully recalled the period from the two of them entering Weiqing City to attending the city lord's birthday banquet and finally falling into such a critical deadlock. Although Yan Kaiting felt that all the spearheads seemed to be secretly pointed at him, But finally no definite conclusion was drawn.

If I hadn't played with Lian Er's favorite magic weapon, I wouldn't have fought with Cheng Xiaotian like Cheng Xiaotian, if I hadn't beaten Cheng Xiaotian submissively, I wouldn't have been tortured by Cheng Xiaotian later If he wanted to go to the Queyun Pavilion for a drink, he and Fu Mingxuan would not be in such a carefully arranged deadlock.

But in the Queyun Pavilion, during the entanglement with Fu Mingxuan, real Mo Yu looked at Fu Mingxuan with the look of a ferocious beast seeing its prey, but to himself, it seemed like he was treating an annoying beast. Worm, just want to shoot himself to death as soon as possible.

From doubting Cheng Xiaotian at the beginning, to discovering that Cheng Xiaotian is actually just a chess piece, then thinking of Xiaoyoumen and Duobaoge at the birthday banquet, and Xiang Yao who appeared under the moon and proposed to marry him , Yan Kaiting only felt a headache.

It seems that everything can only be figured out slowly through groping.

Yan Kaiting looked at Fu Mingxuan. Fu Mingxuan lowered his head, thought for a while, and suddenly looked at Wushan behind him. The city lord's mansion at the foot of Wushan was also filled with such a red light.

Fu Mingxuan sneered, looked at Yan Kaiting and said: "Unexpectedly, Sui Yuan was worried that you and I would return to his mansion, and it was in his mansion that he set up such a magic circle."

Yan Kaiting said: "Mingxuan, do you know if there is anything against this red haze? For example, use fire to burn a hole?"

After saying this, Fu Mingxuan immediately stood up, his eyes brightened, and said: "Brother Ting, do you know if there is any river in Weiqing City that flows outside the city?"

In fact, Fu Mingxuan was not very familiar with this city compared to Yan who often came to Weiqing to hold court.

Yan Kaiting said: "Indeed there are. The name of this city is Qinghe, which is actually the upper reaches of the Heishui River." Speaking of this, Yan Kaiting also suddenly became excited, looked at Fu Mingxuan and said: " You mean, the object of this red haze's confrontation is water?"

Fu Mingxuan smiled for the first time tonight, and said: "I'm not sure, but since it's a blood crystal, it must be soluble in water. After it's melted into water, whether the effect still exists is another matter. .”

Hearing what Fu Mingxuan said, Yan Kaiting immediately felt hopeful, and said, "Qinghe is just out of the city in the west of the city. If we go there, we must pass through most of the city. As long as there is no ambush on the road, we will only be a stick of incense in the past." time."

"It's just that there must still be ambushes in this city, we still need to be more careful." Fu Mingxuan said.

Yan Kaiting nodded, raised Tai Chu's hammer the size of a lotus flower and shook it, saying: "If the soldiers come to block, the water comes to cover, the two of us are afraid!"

Seeing Yan Kaiting's fearless appearance, Fu Mingxuan felt a little relieved. The two smiled at each other, then looked at the city gate standing in the red haze, and turned to the west of the city. dive.

Originally, the two of them were hiding in a lush forest on a highland between cities. Looking down from this highland, you can see empty streets and houses without a ray of light. There are not even ordinary dogs barking and cats barking. The sound of the wind, today's night in Weiqing is a bit too quiet.

The quieter it is, the more careful it is.

The two sneaked down to the high ground softly, looked left and right, and took advantage of the shadow cast by the moonlight to rush towards the west of the city.

On the other side, by the Qinghe River in the west of the city, the dozen or so black-clothed men hiding in the dark held their breath tightly, like hunters setting a trap, waiting for their prey to take the bait with peace of mind.

"Brother, do you think those two boys will come over? Let's stay here, what if they escape from other places?" One of the rough men asked the leading man in black with a low voice.

"Hmph!" The big man in black turned around and gave the rough man behind him a shudder, cursing in a deep voice: "Are you blind? See those red ghost things? Only here is the gap, they don't come this way Where else will I go?"

The rough man touched his head with one hand, and said aggrievedly: "The elder brother is still wise, but the younger brother really doesn't know what those red mist are?"

The leading man sighed, and said: "In order to set up this situation, all the blood crows in the vicinity have been hunted down. Although the blood crows are not a good thing, but there are so many lives to do evil. retribution."

After saying these words, amidst the astonished eyes of the younger brothers, the big guy in the lead coughed a few times in embarrassment. As the leader of the killer team, he was embarrassed to say such words suddenly.

There may be more people who died at their hands than the blood crow.

"Hmph." The big man in the lead snorted coldly, looking towards the direction where Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan were about to run, a murderous intent rose in his eyes.

"See how you can escape from my palm." After saying that, he took out a cobblestone-sized magical instrument with gold-plated front and silver-plated back and a string of magnificent gemstones from his arms, and held it tightly. hand.

Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan continued to sneak around in the shadows. After galloping for a certain distance, Yan Kaiting looked around, his eyes became more vigilant.

"Mingxuan, do you also think this road is too quiet?" Yan Kaiting asked with a frown. It can be said that the two of them did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

But judging from the tactics laid out in the killing game just now, the people behind the arrangement will definitely not let the two of them go easily.It must be abnormal that no ambush was laid in this way.

Fu Mingxuan frowned, and nodded with a stern expression, he also noticed it.

Along the way, the two have been sneaking in the dark, taking a panoramic view of the light.The unimpeded street, walking through without any obstacles, seemed to be arranged for the two to smoothly lead to Qinghe in the west of the city.

The two thought of one place, and their pace gradually slowed down.It seemed that if he went any further, he would fall into another trap specially prepared for the two of them.

Just when they stopped, there was a bang, and a figure fell in front of the two of them as if falling from the sky, and fell into a water tank placed in front of a family. splash.
