Chapter 121: Red Cloud Unsheathed
Zhao said, "The youngest was chosen by them as a sacrifice. In order to satisfy the red-haired monster, the villagers even gave some of their limited food to the youngest so that she could eat more and gain weight."
Only then did Li Daoxuan understand why everyone in the village was so skinny, but the little girl had a fair and rosy complexion.
"Although my husband was sad, he didn't have the courage to resist, so I decided to sneak away with my youngest son!"
Li Daoxuan nodded and said, "It's a pity that you met that red-haired monster?"
Zhao nodded, with a hint of fear in her eyes, and said, "Before I left the village, I encountered the red-haired monster. It was very fast. I knew I couldn't escape, so I asked my youngest to hide and I jumped into the lake to lure it away."
"The monster also jumped into the lake with me. It wanted to eat me, but the goddess statue I was holding suddenly glowed white, causing it to escape injured. But I was also scratched by it and was no longer able to swim to shore."
"My youngest wanted to save me by the water, but I was afraid she would fall into the water, so I asked her to stay hidden and not move. I said I was playing a game with her and we were going to sleep underwater..."
Li Daoxuan remained silent. No wonder the youngest son did not seem very sad when he talked about his mother soaking in the water.
He could imagine the scene: in order to protect her daughter from danger, Zhao chose to sacrifice herself, sinking into the water little by little, yet still smiling and comforting her daughter.
"By the way, tonight I saw other villagers wearing mourning clothes and bowing to the Zhao family in the middle of the night. Why is that?"
Zhao was shocked when she heard this question and immediately asked, "Oh no! Does the Immortal have any companions living in the Zhao family?"
Li Daoxuan nodded.
"That was the order from the temple keeper Yang Er. He said that after the sacrifice was chosen , a sacrificial ceremony would be held, and the men, women, and children in the village would gather outside the door in the middle of the night to perform the funeral.
He said that this was an agreement between the mountain god and the mandrill, and after the worship, the mandrill would come to enjoy the food..."
Li Daoxuan suddenly remembered that Xue Rengui was still guarding outside the door!
If the mandrill came to attack at this time, Xue Rengui would think that he was in the room and would probably defend the door to the death!
Although he is an expert in martial arts, how can he defeat the red-haired monster that is invulnerable to swords and guns?
Li Daoxuan immediately took out a Qingming Rebirth Talisman and said, "Zhao, I will send you to the Qingming Realm now. As for your daughter, don't worry, I will definitely kill that red-haired monster and won't let her be in danger."
Zhao shook her head, knelt down and begged, "Goddess, please give me some more time, I want to see my son again!"
Li Daoxuan frowned slightly. He knew the situation was urgent, but humans are not plants, and Zhao's plea was reasonable.
He sighed, "Well, you will fall into my hands first."
After saying that, Li Daoxuan stretched out his left hand, and the Five-horse Warrior Talisman on his palm became slightly hot and emitted golden light.
Zhao did not resist at all, and his soul was immediately sucked into the talisman.
The Wuchang Military Talisman can also contain souls, and the life and death of the souls in the talisman depends on Li Daoxuan's thoughts.
Li Daoxuan held the Chixia sword in his hand, but the sword was not unsheathed, and he pointed the scabbard at the ground.
The ground shook slightly, rolling up Zhao's body and forming a grave mound, which allowed her to rest in peace.
After doing all this, Li Daoxuan used the art of shrinking the earth and quickly rushed to the Zhao family.
…
In the courtyard.
Xue Rengui had already made a wooden bow with a hemp rope as the string and the arrows were short sharpened branches.
It was very crude and totally unworthy of his natural strength and superb archery skills.
But it's better to have it than nothing. If you can shoot the monster's eyes, maybe it will have some effect.
Xue Rengui was sitting in front of the door with a wooden bow on his back and a halberd across his body, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was sleeping.
In the darkness of night, a red-haired monkey quietly climbed over the wall. It was ten feet tall, with thick arms and muscular body, but its steps were very light.
With a light leap, he jumped over the gate of the Zhao family and landed silently.
When it saw Xue Rengui, a hint of hatred appeared in its eyes, and it obviously recognized this human who had hurt it before.
Seeing that the other party closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep, the monkey lightly walked forward slowly, ready to bite off the other party's head while the other party was sleeping!
But when it came within three feet of Xue Rengui, ready to attack, it felt its feet go soft and its body immediately sank into it.
It turned out to be a trap!
Xue Rengui suddenly opened his eyes, like a furious King Kong, raised his halberd and stabbed forward, like a silver dragon breaking through the air, and the sound of the gun was like thunder.
"Demon, die!"
It turned out that he was just pretending to be asleep. When he was making the bow and arrow, he also made a simple trap.
clang!
The halberd pierced the red-haired ape's body, barely breaking its skin and producing hot sparks.
It even makes a sound like metal and stone!
Xue Rengui put away his halberd, turned around, took out his wooden bow, and shot several arrows at its eyes, but they were all blocked by the opponent's arms.
Finally, the wooden bow broke with a snap, obviously unable to withstand Xue Rengui's divine power.
At this time, the red-haired monkey roared, jumped out of the trap, reached a height of several feet, and smashed towards Xue Rengui with both arms.
Xue Rengui knew that he could not fight him, so he subconsciously dodged to the side.
boom!
The red-haired monkey's arms smashed on the house, and the walls collapsed and the beams broke. The house was immediately turned into ruins.
Xue Rengui even heard the screams from inside.
A surge of blood rushed to his head, and he remembered that his husband and wife were still in the room, and the house of Zhao Shisan and his daughter also collapsed.
Four lives in total!
He boasted in vain that he was a man of integrity and humility, but now he had to watch his savior die before his eyes!
Xue Rengui's eyes were red, his hair was standing on end with rage, he raised his halberd and rushed towards the red-haired monster with force like thunder, the heavy halberd turned into a silver dragon in his hand, circling the sky like lightning, and like a roaring gale through the jade trees!
The overwhelming and brutal momentum even frightened the red-haired monster, and for a moment it could only wave its arms to resist.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding...
In the dark night, sparks kept lighting up. Xue Rengui's halberd skills were perfect. Even with his flesh and blood body, he actually killed the red-haired monster and forced it to retreat again and again, with its red hair constantly falling off.
However, it didn't last long. After finishing a set of halberd techniques, Xue Rengui's knuckles were already cracked, and blood gushed out, dyeing the halberd red. But his eyes were like blazing fire, and his fighting spirit was soaring. He didn't care about his injuries at all, and continued to wave the halberd like a madman!
Even the red-haired monster showed a hint of retreat in his eyes.
But at this moment, the halberd in Xue Rengui's hand broke with a snap, and the tip of the halberd flew out and nailed to the ground.
Only half of the gun was left in Xue Rengui's hand.
He was breathing heavily. In addition to his hands, he also felt a sharp pain in his waist. The wound that had scabbed over before had now cracked again.
The red-haired monster was only slightly injured and lost some hair, but was not seriously injured.
Xue Rengui's eyes were still burning with fighting spirit. He supported himself with half of the gun, pointed at the red-haired monster, and said, "Come again!"
Live as a mighty man, die as a hero in the underworld!
Even if Xue Rengui died, he would definitely die standing and die in battle!
It’s a pity that in this life, I can no longer fight on the battlefield and achieve great achievements. I feel ashamed that I was born with this seven-foot-tall body but have not achieved fame.
roar!
The red-haired monster looked at the blood-covered man in front of him with some awe, but finally rushed up and bit Xue Rengui's neck.
Xue Rengui's eyes were wide open with anger, and even though a disaster was imminent, he still stared at the evil spirits without any fear.
Just when this famous general was about to die in the mouth of the monster, a clanging sword sound suddenly rang out between heaven and earth.
The red light is like lightning, coming as a surprise, the sound is like wind and rain, and it soars like a dragon or a snake!
Taiyi Tiangang Sword Technique!
