Chapter 531 Falling into Danger
That night, the village was filled with joy and laughter.
Jiang Chen sat on the tree, looking at the smiling faces below, some happy and some sad.
Ever since the demons came out, disasters have been spreading in the world.
What’s worse, many places have become hell on earth.
If Heaven had compassion, it would not allow the world to fall into such a state.
"Big brother, this is the cake the village chief asked me to bring you."
"I heard from the uncle over there that you haven't eaten for a day."
"You better eat something."
Jiang Chen followed the sound and when he looked down he saw a little girl of about seven or eight years old standing under a tree.
The little girl's clothes were tattered, but they were washed clean.
She also had wounds on her arms, but they were not large.
At first glance, it's not obvious.
Looking at those lively eyes, Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of his own children.
When they grow up, they will definitely be this tall.
Jiang Chen jumped down, raised his hand and touched her head.
"It's okay, I'm not hungry, you eat."
However, the little girl did not move at all, still reaching out to Jiang Chen, tightly holding the cake in her little hand.
Seeing how persistent she was, Jiang Chen had no choice but to take it.
In fact, for someone at his level, it’s okay for him to not eat for a few days .
"May I have your name?"
Jiang Chen asked softly.
"Xiao Cui, this is the name my mother gave me."
Jiang Chen frowned, feeling that something was wrong with the second half of the sentence.
Perhaps the little girl saw his confusion.
He continued, "When my mother gave birth to me, she saw that I was a baby girl and ran away with someone else."
"My mother has been the one who has raised me since I was little. She hopes that I will be as green and strong as the bamboo in the valley."
"Just gave me the word emerald."
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment.
Although it was just a few short sentences, one could hear the twists and turns of the story.
Xiao Cui had a smile on her lips and there was no sign of sadness on her face.
Maybe I am still young and don’t understand these things.
Jiang Chen didn't ask any further.
"Big brother, I heard from the village chief that you can cure our illness."
“Is this true? ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chen looked into those eyes, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
The poisonous insect is complex, and the mother insect must be killed in order to eliminate it.
But, I’m afraid it can’t be done so simply.
The information recorded in ancient books is very scarce.
We have to find another way.
After a long while, Jiang Chen said "hmm".
However, my heart was filled with mixed feelings at this moment.
His right hand, hanging at his side, clenched into a fist, hatred rising in his heart.
Looking at the layers of fog in the distance, Jiang Chen felt as if something was pressing on his heart, unable to go up or down.
This feeling is very uncomfortable.
After Jiang Chen returned to the dormitory, he had a sleepless night. When he finally fell asleep, he was tormented by nightmares.
In the dream, there were thousands of corpses floating in the valley and blood formed a river.
Everyone in the village died in front of him, and he was powerless to do anything.
Haunted by nightmares, consciousness is also deeply trapped in them.
"Jiang Chen!"
"Jiang Chen!"
I heard shouts one after another.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen opened his eyes.
He sat up suddenly, and Wang Jinnian beside him frowned and looked at Jiang Chen with concern.
"What's going on? I called you for a while, but you didn't wake up."
"Did something happen?"
Jiang Chen's forehead was covered with sweat, and his body was sweating all over.
He had never had this feeling before, but now it has become a little strange.
Wang Jinnian's voice was still lingering in Jiang Chen's ears, but he couldn't hear a word he said.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen grabbed Wang Jinnian's wrist tightly.
"Master, we have been in the hands of the poisonous demon from the very beginning!"
Wang Jinnian was stunned and didn't understand.
At this time, Jiang Chen covered his head, and the scene of their first day here kept appearing in his mind.
From the moment they stepped into the village, from the corpse.
He should have realized that it was a clue!
"Master asked the soldiers to protect the village first."
"I want to go up Black Rock Mountain!"
Wang Jinnian was stunned for a moment.
"What are you doing there?"
"The terrain over there is steep and dangerous. Besides, I've been there before and didn't find anything strange."
"You are not in good condition now, so you should stay here and rest well."
Jiang Chen didn't listen and shook his head.
"no!"
"That poisonous woman hid her aura, so you can't detect it."
"If I hadn't been trapped in a nightmare just now, I wouldn't have noticed anything."
"She has known our actions since we entered this village."
"That's why she's fearless, but that's also why I can find her!"
Seeing his confident look, Wang Jinnian hesitated for a moment and did not stop him.
"I will definitely come back after this trip!"
Jiang Chen nodded and took three people with him.
The enemy is small and agile, so it would be inconvenient if there were more of them.
Looking at the backs of the four people leaving, Xiao Cui took the arm of the woman next to her.
Puzzled, he asked, "Big Brother, are they going to find herbs for us?"
The woman hugged Xiao Cui tightly with her weak body, nodded, and went back with her.
Wang Jinnian looked at the miserable appearance of each person and sighed in his heart.
The other side.
Jiang Chen led his troops straight up, and all along the way there was nothing but silence.
There was not even a bird in sight .
Although the scene was weird, the three guards were not cowards.
Following Jiang Chen obediently.
The cries of unknown animals around became louder.
It seems that something that cannot be suppressed has resurfaced.
"It's strange, we didn't see any other animals along the way!"
"Could it be that he came from somewhere else?"
As soon as the man with a mustache finished complaining, a sleeve arrow stabbed at him fiercely.
Jiang Chen's ears moved, and he raised his hand and swung the sword!
He split the wooden arrow in half.
Looking at the arrow with blood on its tip on the ground, Jiang Chen's eyes gradually became cold.
"ridiculous."
"The Armor Demon leader is braver than you."
"But you, the poisonous demon, are only afraid to take action. A playboy like you is not up to the task."
"It's a miracle that you still have a place among the demons."
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, a puff of black smoke floated out of the Black Rock Cave.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a humanoid female demon wearing a black robe.
There were curse marks on the woman's face, and even her hands and legs were pitch black.
Seeing the real body appear, Jiang Chen snorted disdainfully.
"I thought it was some kind of thing, but it seems to be nothing more than this."
The female devil was not annoyed by his words and raised her hand.
A group of skinny, short monsters came out in droves.
Jiang Chen and his men were surrounded, with no way forward and no way back.
"Jiang Chen, you are a big shot, but it's a pity that you are on the wrong side."
"No one can stop our plan to revitalize the demon race this time!"
"But if you can become a member of my demon clan, you can be spared death!"
Jiang Chen's eyes were cold.
He opened his lips and said, "Dream on!"
"How dare a mere demon tribe destroy the territory of Yan Nation!"
"court death!"
Jiang Chen didn't waste time talking to her and drew his sword!
The sword energy absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and gathered into one with Jiang Chen!
He drew his sword and slashed forward!
boom!
Black Rock Mountain fell to the ground!
A loud noise caused everyone's heart to tremble.
They walked out of the shed and looked at each other.
"What happened?"
Just when people were confused.
A large "black cloud" was coming towards them!
