Chapter 22 Attacked
The two were walking on the green path outside the city, with the sound of rivers, winds, and unknown birds in their ears, but there was no sound of them talking.
Xu Guru is obviously a quiet girl, and Gu Qing is too lazy to find topics.
On the road, Gu Qing was still thinking about the strange knock on the door before, why it suddenly appeared, why it suddenly disappeared, why others couldn't hear it, and what is its origin?
Gu Qing felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
What's more, Xu Guran mentioned that today is the half month of July, commonly known as the "Ghost Festival".
There are no other pedestrians on the road except him and Xu Guru. This is a custom, and perhaps it is an experience summarized by locals.
It is best not to go out on this evening.
Gu Qing suddenly glanced at the building in front of him, which was Fang's house.
He said, "Miss Xu has moved to my next door, or is she living at Miss Fang's house?"
Xu said slowly: "I will move here tomorrow and live in my cousin's place now."
Gu Qing said: "Then let's say goodbye."
Xu Shuangshuang stood there without moving.
Gu Qing was a little surprised and said, "Is Miss Xu still a thing?"
"Slowly, you're back. I just finished worshiping my grandfather with my ancestors. It's too late to see that it's too late. I'm afraid you haven't returned home yet, so I ran out to find you first."
Fang Wanqiu suddenly appeared.
She looked at Gu Qing again and said, "You are back together, Mr. Gu Qing, we will slowly move to a new house tomorrow. Let's have dinner at her house together. Are you free?"
Gu Qing said: "I have time."
Fang Wanqiu then pulled Xu Shuang toward Fang's house.
Gu Qing felt that Xu Gangju had something to say to him, and couldn't help but continue asking: "Miss Xu, do you have anything to say to me?"
Xu slowly stopped and hesitated and said, "Young Master Gu, it's too late, be careful when you go home."
Gu Qing said "yes" and said, "Okay."
Fang Wanqiu said: "It's only a few steps away from his home, what's there to worry about? Are you still afraid that he will meet a ghost?"
Gu Qing noticed that when Fang Wanqiu said this, Xu Guru looked a little strange.
But Fang Wanqiu had already pulled her away.
Gu Qing vaguely felt that Xu Guru was reminding him, was Xu Guru who knew the inside story when the strange knock on the door?
From this point of view, it was not necessarily accidental that Gu Qing met Xu Guru not long after he left the medicine shop.
Unfortunately, Xu Gu Gangrang had been pulled away by Fang Wanqiu, so Gu Qing could not get more information.
But he cheered up and became more alert.
Be careful all the way, nothing happened.
Seeing the front gate, the hair arranged before leaving the door was still there. Gu Qing was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly a chill appeared in his body.
He turned his head and saw a man hanging upside down on the willow tree.
Gu Qing saw it clearly with the moonlight. He had white and green hair on his face, his facial features were ferocious, and he showed two sharp front teeth. No breathing sound came out. He was wearing a tattered Taoist robe.
"The Taoist robe of Taoist priest You Fang?"
Although the facial features cannot be distinguished, Gu Qing still recognized that the tattered Taoist robe was Wang Wei.
He felt a terrifying feeling in his heart, could this monster be Wang Hao?
evil Dead?
He didn't have time to think about whether Xu Gurugu knew about this, so he reminded him.
At this moment, the monster suddenly shook, and when it appeared again, it was already in mid-air, with both hands spreading to rush towards Gu Qing.
The former combat instinct saved Gu Qing.
He slipped and almost staggered the monster's pounce.
Gu Qing's dynamic vision, which is comparable to Hawkeye, can see the monster's claws clearly. There are long nails on the fingertips, as sharp as a hook, and the palms are pitch black, as if soaked in poisonous water.
The monster is very fast and has a flexibility beyond Gu Qing's imagination.
Although Gu Qing is only the first level of Hunyuan Boy Scholar, he is stronger than the first level of the monk Gangxiang at the time. His strength, endurance, explosive power and agility are all close to the second level of Hunyuan Boy Scholar.
Gu Qing did not continue to dodge, and mud splashed everywhere on his right foot, showing amazing explosive power in an instant. His slid figure reflected back as if he was stepping on a spring.
The red fish has been unsheathed and stabbed the monster's head.
In fact, from the perspective of his attack, the heart is the best choice.
But Gu Qing still remembered that the Taoist priest's heart had been taken away. Since he suspected that the monster was a Taoist priest, he naturally would not place his precious opportunity to fight back in his heart.
If you are a person, even if you are a warrior who has been fighting for the rest of your life, it will be difficult to make any move when Gu Qing counterattacks.
But the monster's reaction was once again beyond Gu Qing's expectations.
The two sharp claws, like two hooks, must pierce Gu Qing's arm holding the red fish.
Gu Qing squatted violently.
The tight muscles of the calf seemed to be squatting down and making a loud noise.
The extremely strong knees seemed to be almost unable to withstand this explosive power.
Gu Qing was not worried about the possible damage that his body might encounter. While avoiding the sharp claws, his body suddenly crashed into the front, and the blade light flashed in his hand.
The red fish did not disappoint him and pierced the monster's abdomen in an instant.
Gu Qing didn't have time to be happy, and the monster seemed to be unable to feel the pain at all, and his two sharp claws cut Gu Qing's back.
The scorching pain stimulates Gu Qing's nerves.
Fortunately, the pain of practicing wooden Buddha statues in the past few days is no worse than the pain now, so Gu Qing's body's tolerance for pain has become extraordinary.
Gu Qing held back the pain and focused all his strength on the other fist.
The force bursts out.
Snap!
It was not that the monster's ribs were broken by Gu Qing, but that Gu Qing's wrist was broken.
At the same time, the monster was also knocked away by Gu Qing's full force, and the back of his head hit the ground hard.
Gu Qing did not relax.
After the monster was knocked down, he quickly stumbled and got up with his head in his arms.
Its ability to resist strikes is stronger than Gu Qing expected. However, a lot of green liquid was coming out of the wounds caused by the red fish, and the monster kept shaking its head. Its condition was obviously much worse than before.
On the other hand, the pain in Gu Qing's back has disappeared.
Gu Qing knew very well that this was not a good thing, which meant that the monster's claws were highly poisonous, which caused him to lose his back feeling. His current condition may not be better than that of the monster.
"We must fight quickly."
Gu Qing made a decision quickly.
Judging from the fact that the monster hugged his head just now, its brain should still play a role, so it is also likely to be its key point. Gu Qing was determined to take a gamble and put his target on his head.
He has little confidence, but he has to make this choice.
He always made decisions very quickly. Gu Qing resisted the discomfort of his wrists and accurately captured the monster's dynamics with his eyes. Just as Gu Qing was about to send a thunderous blow, the monster actually howled. It seemed to have encountered something terrible and fled with lightning speed.
Because Gu Qing was still poisoned by monsters, he did not chase them rashly, so as not to prevent the toxins from being unstoppable and causing unexpected surprises. But his ears still caught the footsteps of the monsters, which was exactly what he heard when he was in the medicine shop. It was indeed it.
“It’s more than that.”
In addition to the sound of footsteps, Gu Qing also noticed a strange sound of musical instruments.
But this sound disappeared quickly.
Gu Qing was watching the green blood flowing from the monster, which evaporated quickly without leaving any trace.
"Why did it come to me? It was the strange instrument that drove it away?"
Gu Qing temporarily buried the doubts in his heart, and the most urgent task was to treat the injury.
