Dragon Elephant Valkyrie

Chapter 18 Fog rises, the mysterious assassin

Luo Ling'er quietly stuffed a money bag into Qin Yu's hand.

"What?" Qin Yu asked with a frown.

"You saved my cousin, this is your reward. My cousin said he didn't bring any extra silver coins with him, so I'll give you my own first."

Qin Yu stuffed the money bag back and said, "I just saw her bullying you, to help you out, and I don't want your silver coins."

"I don't usually need silver coins, so I'd better give them to you." Luo Ling'er stuffed the money bag over again.

She knew that Qin Yu came to the Crescent Moon Mountains to look for the Flame Heart Grass because he had no money to buy the Body Tempering Liquid, so he wanted to help, but he didn't know how to ask.

Qin Yu grabbed her hand, put the money bag into her hand, and said, "Buy some body quenching liquid to practice well, it's expensive. I think it's difficult for you to get body quenching liquid in your family."

Luo Ling'er's performance in the academy was not good, but this time she was persuaded to quit by the academy, and she was completely abandoned by the family, so it was impossible to get the scarce training resources such as body tempering liquid.

Luo Ling'er squeezed the cloth bag, lowered her head and asked in a low voice: "I... If I can't enter the Celestial Academy next year, will you ignore me?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because... because I'm too stupid, what if I don't get into the Celestial Academy? My father and mother also told me not to learn martial arts..." Luo Ling'er lowered her head, her voice became softer as she spoke, and her mood was very depressed .

Everyone's martial arts talent is different, and Qin Yu doesn't know whether Luo Linger's talent is good or not, but judging from her performance in the academy, she is not very optimistic.

"Try hard, just don't let yourself regret it." Qin Yu encouraged with a sunny smile.

Luo Ling'er wiped her eyes with her sleeve, looked up with hopeful eyes, and said expectantly: "I will definitely work hard to cultivate, but if I fail the entrance examination, will you ignore me?"

Qin Yu reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile, "No, I will protect you."

This little girl liked to run behind her since she was a child, and she had the best relationship among her peers.

Qin Yu didn't know what her ignorant feelings were, but at this moment she was pure and worth cherishing in his heart.

Luo Ling'er was very happy, pinching the cloth bag in her hand, smiling sweetly, her face was puffy, very cute.

……

After sitting like this for a long time, Luo Ling'er said, "I'm going home."

"En." Qin Yu hummed lightly.

Given the current situation of the Luo family, it is indeed not suitable to continue training in the Crescent Moon Mountains.

"Do you want to go back with us?" Luo Ling'er asked again.

Qin Yu was silent for a while before replying: "I still want to find the Flame Heart Grass."

"But it's very dangerous here. According to regulations, if you encounter an eighth-level beast outside the Crescent Mountain Range, you must immediately notify the city guard." Luo Ling'er said with some concern.

Under normal circumstances, in the outer areas of the Crescent Moon Mountains, such as Yuehua Valley and Ominous Beast Ridge, there are very few ominous beasts above the sixth level.

Once a monster of the seventh or eighth rank appears, it may be due to a change in the herd. In this case, the city guards need to be notified to respond in a timely manner.

Of course, disasters like herd changes rarely happen, and it is more likely that this blood-striped monster snake accidentally fled to Yuehua Valley.

"Python is not a herd creature, so it shouldn't be a movement of herds." Qin Yu said after thinking about it.

This time I came to Yuehua Valley to look for the Flame Heart Grass, but I haven't found it yet, so going back now would be a waste of time.

What's more, the blood-striped monster python has been seriously injured, and the sword almost cut it into two pieces. Whether the blood-striped monster python can survive is another matter, and it is unlikely to come out to hurt people again.

At this moment, a mist floated down from the stream, and the mist soon covered a large forest near the stream.

The moment Qin Yu breathed in the mist, he immediately frowned: "It's not quite right."

Luo Ling'er quickly looked around, and said strangely: "It's such a thick fog."

Qin Yu hurriedly jumped off the tree, stretched out his hand to pull Luo Ling'er: "Come down quickly."

Luo Ling'er quickly jumped down, just as her feet hit the ground, a loud shout suddenly came from a distance.

"who!"

The voice belonged to Luo Xiaochuan, it should be his blood ability that discovered the strange person.

"Let's go!" Qin Yu immediately took Luo Ling'er's hand and ran towards Luo Xiaochuan.

In the thick fog, Luo Xiaochuan stood on the ground, looking up at a tall tree, his eyes were a little dignified.

Squatting on a branch of a tall tree was a mysterious man wearing an assassin's cloak. The man turned the dagger in his hand and asked in a cold and arrogant voice: "Who hurt my python?"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yu, Luo Xiaochuan and the others were stunned for a moment, they didn't expect that the blood-striped demon python just now was raised by a warrior.

Luo Xiaochuan could sense the strength of this person's true energy, and knew that this person was difficult to deal with, so he could only explain in a gentle tone: "It was the demon python that attacked my sister first, and my sister was almost eaten .”

"Since my demon python likes to eat it, you should stand up and wait to be eaten. How can you resist?"

Luo Xiaochuan frowned, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It means that you will all become its food." The mysterious man just finished speaking.

A long and thick black shadow appeared in the mist behind him, crawled across the branches of the tree, hung on the tree trunk and stared at the few people below, "hissing" and spitting out a message. It was the blood-striped demon python from before. .

The wound on the blood-striped demon python has been stitched up with vines, and the bleeding has not continued. The recovery power of the eighth-level beast is so strong.

Luo Ningshuang also ran over from the direction of the stream, and seeing the blood-patterned python again, her legs trembled in fright, and she almost fell down.

The black-robed assassin turned his head to look at Luo Ningshuang, and grinned: "So you are my monster python's favorite food, and you really don't look bad."

As soon as the words fell, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"Be careful!" Luo Xiaochuan opened his eyes sharply, and immediately rushed towards Luo Ningshuang.

But still a step too late, the black-robed assassin appeared behind Luo Ningshuang in the blink of an eye, and the dagger in his hand was silently pressed against her neck.

"Don't! Don't kill her, we are members of the Luo family, we can pay for our lives." Luo Xiaochuan said hastily.

The black-robed assassin stuck out his tongue from behind and licked Luo Ningshuang's cheek, and said with a cruel smile: "The taste is really good, such good ingredients can't be bought with money."

Luo Ningshuang trembled in horror, with a cold dagger resting on her neck, and the saliva of the person behind her remained on her cheek, which was extremely disgusting, but she did not dare to resist, her hands trembled so much that she didn't even have the strength to lift it up.

Luo Xiaochuan saw that money could not impress the other party, so he quickly threatened: "You better think clearly, our Luo family is one of the three major families in Suzaku City, if you dare to touch her, the Luo family will definitely hunt you down to the end, endlessly! "

"Jie Jie Jie..." the black-robed assassin Jie Jie laughed strangely, "If you kill all of you, no one will know that I killed you. How can you chase me down? Jie Jie..."

As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed Luo Ningshuang's shoulder, lifted and shook it vigorously, and threw it at the blood-patterned monster python.

"No!" Luo Xiaochuan exclaimed, and immediately rushed towards Luo Ningshuang.

The black-robed assassin swung his dagger horizontally, stopped Luo Xiaochuan, and began to fight.

Looking at the ghostly movement of this black-robed assassin, his strength is definitely not inferior to Luo Xiaochuan.

Even if Luo Xiaochuan can draw with the black-robed assassin, the rest of them can only get stuck between the teeth of the blood-striped demon python.

Qin Yu quickly made a decision, grabbed Luo Ling'er's hand, turned around and ran away.

The blood-patterned python found Qin Yu running away, threw away Luo Ningshuang, and turned around to chase after him.

Qin Yu dragged Luo Ling'er and ran wildly, but was soon overtaken by the blood-patterned monster python.

The blood-striped monster python opened its mouth wide and bit it in one bite.

Qin Yu hastily pushed Luo Ling'er forcefully, pushing her out of the bite range of the blood-striped monster python, and at the same time jumped to the other side with the help of reverse thrust.

Bang!
The blood-striped monster python bit a big tree, biting off the root of the tree, then raised its head, turned around and continued to chase Qin Yu.

Qin Yu continued to flee, and Luo Ling'er quickly followed up according to the piercing tactics taught by the academy.

However, the blood-patterned python only chased Qin Yu and did not attack Luo Ling'er.

Qin Yu immediately wanted to understand the reason, and turned to Luo Ling'er and shouted: "Go! Go!"

"But...but..." Luo Ling'er saw that Qin Yu was being chased dangerously by the blood-patterned monster python, and was at a loss for what to do.

hiss!
The blood-striped monster snake bit again, Qin Yu hurriedly flew into a tree hole, narrowly avoiding the bite.

Bang!
The blood-striped demon python bit the tree hole.

Qin Yu quickly rushed out from the other end, threw Luo Ling'er onto the tree trunk, put his palm on her cheek, and said hastily: "This blood python has a grudge, I hurt it just now, so it only chases Me, you go!"

"But...but..." Luo Ling'er burst into tears, she didn't want to leave Qin Yu alone and run away.

"No but!" Qin Yu yelled, "Hurry up! Go get rescuers, whatever, hurry up!"

After Qin Yu yelled, he turned his head and saw the blood-patterned python raised its head again, and immediately ran towards the depths of the dense forest.

Luo Ling'er got up and saw the blood-patterned monster python chasing Qin Yu, feeling extremely anxious.

She suddenly remembered that her grandfather had given her something for self-defense before going out, and quickly untied the hidden weapon bag at her waist and threw it at Qin Yu, shouting: "Take it! There are thunderbolts in it!"

Qin Yu took the hidden weapon bag in his hand, flew forward and rolled on the ground to avoid the bite of the blood-striped monster python, got up and continued to run forward.

Luo Ling'er watched Qin Yu being chased farther and farther by the big snake, and couldn't stop crying.

For the first time in her life, she felt so weak and helpless. She blamed herself in her heart. If she had cultivated hard before and had the strength of her second cousin, she would not have watched her companion face danger and be helpless.

She clenched her fists, wiped away her tears, looked around, found the direction of the exit of Yuehua Valley, and ran forward, hoping to find rescuers before Qin Yu had an accident.
