Chapter 38: Fishing

The picture on the disc was bloody.

As a kind of monster, the fog demon has very different mental attributes from humans, and its perception and understanding of the world are also very different. Wang Lu directly extracts its memories with soul searching techniques, so it is naturally not easy to interpret when presented intuitively.

But Wang Lu did not further process and modify it, but presented the original image. Most of the people present looked a little confused, but their elite background allowed them to interpret some content.

"From the perspective of the fog demon... the blood-redness seems to indicate that it has been in a highly excited state, but there is no clear object in the field of view. Perhaps its perception is blinded and nothing can be seen.

Liu Xian speculated softly.

Wang Lu said: "The opponent's illusion can deceive you elites, and of course they can also deceive these brainless monsters. Moreover, the fog demon's perception ability is mediocre, and it is normal to see nothing... But don't you think this blood-red background color is strange? The fog demon is a bloodthirsty creature, but in the tracking mode, the fog demon is only interested in the blood of the target creature."

Liu Xian immediately reacted: "In other words, the current state of high excitement is because the fog demon discovered Junior Brother Donghua's blood?"

"And the amount of blood is quite large." Wang Lu added, "Then combined with the next question: As a tracker, Shen Yiwen has received very strict training in the sect and is extremely vigilant... How could he be killed suddenly? Even the alarm is not too late?"

Ouyang Shang said: "It was probably because he relaxed his vigilance. After all, the training of the sect is limited. Many on-site reactions cannot be done without accumulating enough experience."

"And it is possible to make an alert tracker relax his vigilance... I think what happened to Junior Brother Shen Yiwen, it is easy to reason about it."

Liu Xian said incredibly: "Do you think he met... Wang Donghua?"

"To be precise, it is probably Wang Donghua's corpse. The blood of a living person is far less attractive to the fog demon than the dead. If it can make the fog demon have such an exciting instinct, it may take a whole corpse."

Ouyang Shang continued: "The opponent may be able to control the puppet technique of physical body, or possession technique of physical body... In short, Junior Brother Yiwen thought that he saw the living Wang Donghua, and was lured by his words to relax his vigilance, and then was unfortunately killed by a sneak attack. This is probably the truth of the matter."

Wang Lu said: "Of course, all this is just our speculation and cannot rule out other possibilities. But in short, I hope everyone can learn from the lessons and stay nervous all the time and be wary of every change around them. Otherwise, Junior Brother Shen Yiwen is the lesson of the past."

This was said harshly and even coldly, so he did not receive any response, but Wang Lu didn't care. He and Ouyang Shang came together and each had their own division of labor. Ouyang Shang, who had a good relationship with his junior brothers and sisters, was responsible for being a close sister, while he... was responsible for saying what no one liked to listen to but had to say.

Summarizing experiences and lessons learned丨is a must, but no one wants to continue listening to such a bloody summary.

"Then, what should we do next?" Liu Xian changed the subject.

"Retreat." Wang Lu gave the answer without hesitation, "Everyone immediately withdrew back to the mountain gate and then handed over the matter here to the elders."

"What's the solution?" Liu Xian couldn't accept it. "You want us to let go of Junior Brother Wang and Junior Brother Shen and just run away in panic?"

Wang Lu said coldly: "I want you to at least save your life. Wang Donghua's life and death were unknown before, and he was taken as a hostage. You insisted on saving people, and then Junior Brother Chen Yiwen paid in. Now, relying on Junior Brother Chen's sacrifice, we have finally figured out the situation. Do you want Junior Brother Chen's sacrifice to be wasted?"

"Leaving now will make Junior Brother Chen's sacrifice in vain," Liu Xian defended excitedly, "What's more, how do you know that Junior Brother Wang and Junior Brother Shen are already dead? Maybe..."

Wang Lu sneered: "Maybe they are still alive? Maybe they are just locked up, waiting for us to rescue them one day? Ha, why not assume that they may burst out their potential in a critical moment and ascend to immortality in an instant. Be more rational, after all, you are one of the key training targets for management training | Student planning, a leading man in the branch, if you don't even have the ability to face reality..."

"Enough, I know what you want to say. You are just trying every means to find excuses to escape. You, a coward with unknown origin, interrupted angrily, "I don't want to listen to you talking nonsense anymore... Senior brother, what do you say?"

However, when Liu Xian looked at the elder brother with hope, he got a complicated look.

Liu Xian looked at him in surprise, and in a trance, he felt that the senior brother's face seemed to become unfamiliar.

"Senior Brother, you... won't you support him too, right?"

"As soon as I heard that Junior Brother is still waiting for us to save him, Junior Brother Donghua may not be dead yet. He has a golden core puppet, which means he has multiple lives. Even if the real Yuanying person wants to kill him, it is not easy for the fog demon to smell it, maybe it is just the bloody smell of the golden core puppet. It can't be so hasty that they are dead."

Liu Xian argued with reason, but what he received was Ouyang Shang's long silence.

"Senior Brother, I..."

However, when he said this, Liu Xian finally couldn't continue. He turned his gaze to the others, and although everyone looked embarrassed, they stood on Ouyang Shang's side.

This is the prestige of the senior brother of the Golden Generation. As long as it is his decision, no matter how difficult it is, he can only accept it.

...It's right, this is the senior brother's judgment. Maybe I was really wrong. Liu Xian thought to himself.

If you can still have fantasies about Wang Donghua's survival when you see that arm, then when Chen Yiwen is also killed, you will guess that they are still alive... Maybe it's really just wishful thinking. Maybe in fact, it's just that I can't accept myself as a leader, and I can't do anything about watching the two junior brothers encounter evil hands.

This mentality is just a stubborn person. I'm afraid it's not far from being a demon. Fortunately, the senior brother woke me up in time, but... it feels so uncomfortable to wake up.

After a long silence, Liu Xian finally raised his head and said, "Let's go." His voice was hoarse and low, but with a bit of determination.

On that day, the team started to evacuate from the Ghost Crying Forest.

The team took time to evacuate. Although it took Ouyang Shang, Wang Lu and Wang Wu to set out from Fuquan for only more than a day, it was light-fitting and sufficient supplies in Fuquan. After adding Liu Xian and others, it would take at least three days to return to Fuquan from the Ghost Crying Forest.

The evacuation operation was arranged in an orderly manner, neither hurry nor slow. Because everyone knew that right beside him, there was a mysterious and powerful enemy who was eyeing him, and two junior brothers were unfortunately killed because of it. If you were careless, you might become the third person.

On the first day, the team was moving slowly, and they started camping not far outside the Ghost Crying Forest. The spiritual sword monks performed their own duties. Some used sword energy to cut off weeds and leveled the ground to provide space, while others set up magic weapons around the camp to set up alerts. Some were responsible for opening the furnace to refine simple elixirs as medicinal materials. The rest who were not assigned to the task would find their own positions, meditate and exercise their skills, and maintain their strength.

In the past, there was never a lack of joy in setting up camps. In particular, there was also a talented chef from the golden generation among this team. Li Xi, who was self-taught and mastered by medicinal food. Not only did the monks of the same realm, even some Nascent Soul Elders flocked to it. Not only did the taste beauties, but they also had various benefits such as combining ingredients, and strengthening the foundation and cultivating the yuan. Every time Li Xi traveled with him, the food after camping was very worth looking forward to.

But today everyone was in a low mood. Thinking of the two fellow disciples who were completely lost in the ghost crying forest, and thinking of the fact that they were abandoning them like this. The heavy weight in their hearts made it difficult to swallow even the delicious food.

In this simple camp, only the short and fat chef Li Xi could still be optimistic.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother Wang, this is the freshly prepared broth. I'll give you the first two bowls to try."

Li Xi happily scooped out two bowls of strong and fragrant broth from a small tripod and handed it to Ouyang Shang and Wang Lu.

"Oh? The taste of this broth seems to be more delicious than before." Ouyang Shang held the soup bowl, and before the broth could be put in, the strong fragrance aroused his interest.

Li Xi smiled honestly and said, "Isn't it that I'm lucky just now? I caught a pearl roe in the forest. I have only seen it in books before. It is said that the meat is delicious, and even if it is put into the treasure cauldron, it will not lose its tenderness and melt in the mouth."

Ouyang Shang shook his head funny: "I didn't expect that when I was lost, my blessings fell from the sky."

Wang Lu next to him also smiled, nodded at Li Xi, and held the soup bowl with his right hand and was about to enter his mouth. However, the next moment, he suddenly stretched his left hand forward, and his arm was as fast as the cold light of a flying sword. He instantly pinched Li Xi's neck tightly, then raised his right hand and poured the whole bowl of broth into Li Xi's mouth.

Almost instantly, Li Xi's entire chin suddenly melted, as if the candles, blood, flesh and bones burned by high temperature melted into a thick paste, dripping with the broth in the mouth on his chest, and touching the robe with its own defense and poison-proof effect, a burst of pungent blue smoke rose.

"Hehe, it melts at the mouth, it's true."

Wang Lu sneered and threw away the porcelain bowl that served the soup, and then summoned the Kunshan Sword. Ouyang Shang beside him had already silently put the bowl of soup on the ground, holding a thick ancient sword in his hand, and the sword intent was lushly engulfed Li Xi.

This sudden change occurred, and everyone present unexpectedly did not expect it. However, Li Xi, who was the person involved, seemed extremely heavy at this time.

"How do you... know?"

A dull voice rang out from Li Xi's belly - his chin and throat had completely melted, and he could not speak at all.

Wang Lu sneered: "Red blood poison, colorless and tasteless, blood-removing and rotting bones. Do you think only the demons recognize this poison?"

Not long ago, when receiving special training at the mountain gate, Elder Lu Li focused on training the solution to the Red Blood Poison...

Li Xi narrowed his eyes, the honest gaze belonging to the original owner, but was cold and sharp at this time.

"You guys have already planned it?"

"Of course, we have already planned to do it. As long as we take a disheartened attitude, we will definitely appear along the way because you dare not let us go back to the mountain to ask for help. This day, you pretended to be embarrassed, and finally caught you, the big fish... Joke, you have killed two spiritual sword disciples, how can you allow you to continue to be free and free in the dark and not kill you for a day, I will be uneasy for a day."

"I want to kill me? It depends on whether you have it..."

"Damn it, it's a mess"

While speaking, Wang Lu's chaotic sword energy directly exploded Li Xi's head.

At the same time, an extremely shrill cry sounded in the distance.
