Chapter 106 Purgatory

On a cold winter night, dark clouds cover the sky, and the north wind howls past. Occasionally, a gleam of cold moonlight leaks down and falls on the quiet streets and alleys.The rustling night wind blew on the face like a thin knife, piercing the skin and piercing the heart.

The Xiao sound came from the northwest direction of the town, the melody was melodious and mellow, drifting in the night wind, it sounded so refreshing and joyful in the distance.

Baili Mingyan followed Qian Yuhan's footsteps, and quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys of this small town. Neither of them chose the closest straight-line distance from the roof, but chose to approach the player from the ground. It can perfectly hide the body shape and surprise at an appropriate distance.

But the strange thing is that the two of them didn't see a manipulated 'patient' along the way. Just when they were wondering, Baili Mingyan vaguely heard a strange sound, which was very noisy like a group of wild beasts. Tearing the flesh and blood of the prey just captured, if you listen carefully, you can still hear the sound of swallowing.When Baili Mingyan carefully identified the voice, the voice became clearer and clearer, and Baili Mingyan's scalp tingled for a while, but the voice actually came from the direction of the inn.

Qian Yuhan in front of him stopped, apparently also hearing this strange voice, and after carefully distinguishing it for a moment, his face suddenly became gloomy.

"What?" Baili Mingyan whispered.

Qian Yuhan clenched Chen Yu in his hand, and said slowly: "It doesn't feel good."

Hearing this, Baili Mingyan frowned even deeper, and after a while he said to Qian Yuhan: "Xiao Han, go and subdue the player first, I'll go back and check, and if necessary, the people protecting the inn must evacuate."

Qian Yuhan glanced at Baili Mingyan, wanted to veto but couldn't find a reason.The two of them are the only ones in this small town who really have fighting power. Seriously, his explosive power is indeed better than that of Ming Yan. It is most suitable for him to subdue the player and cut it off from the source in one fell swoop.And the strange voice they heard at this moment, including his bad guesses, must be verified. Lin Huang is their only clue about the past of the Lin family, and Lin Huang must not die.

After thinking for a while, Qian Yuhan nodded and agreed: "Okay, you should be very careful."

Baili Mingyan nodded heavily and jumped onto the roof, turned into a gust of night wind and ran towards the inn, the distance gradually approached, the sound of chewing almost stuck to his ears, accompanied by the sound of tearing, Baili Ming Although Hiko didn't intuit it directly, he could already confirm what it was that made the sound.

After jumping over the last ridge, Baili Mingyan finally saw the street of the inn.It's just that when he stood on the ridge and saw the whole picture of the street, he stood there in a daze, and after a while, a wave of nausea surged from his lungs. If he hadn't squatted down immediately to relieve it, he might have vomited out at this moment.

Baili Mingyan thought that the Cangyun Terrace seven years ago was already a purgatory on earth, but he didn't expect that compared with the scene in front of him, the Cangyun Terrace in his memory was only mentioned in a few strokes, and it was nothing to be afraid of.

As far as I could see, the whole street was densely packed with people, as if all the missing people in the town appeared overnight, and they all gathered on the street in front of the inn.But Baili Mingyan was not at all happy, because these people in front of him could no longer be called 'human beings', they were all evil spirits from hell.

Some people in the street were standing, some were sitting, some were lying on the ground, and some were fighting.But these actions are not without reason. To put it bluntly, they are all doing the same thing, which is 'eating'.

Yes, they were all drinking blood, the blood of their fellow men.

Adults are drinking the blood of children, men are drinking the blood of women, the strong are drinking the blood of the weak... What Baili Mingyan saw was a cruel and inhuman predation.

For a moment, Baili Mingyan's mind went blank, and the large expanses of glaring scarlet seemed unreal under the hazy moonlight. He couldn't hear any sound, only the heavy heartbeat in his chest, beating every time. With a weak soul, his hands gradually began to tremble and he almost couldn't hold the crescent moon.

Human instinct always reacts before rationality. After a few seconds, Baili Mingyan began to retch uncontrollably. He knelt down slowly and trembled but could not make any movements. He saw that the door of the inn was blocked by dozens of people. The frenzied predators besieged and attacked, but they dared not lift up the crescent moon to hack a way out for the living in the inn.

It took a full quarter of an hour before Baili Mingyan managed to regain his sanity, held back the adverse reaction of his body, and began to quickly analyze the situation in front of him.Obviously, the cause of the 'patient''s predation must be the blood curse spirit Gu, and it must be the flute in the night wind that made them suddenly go berserk and attack their compatriots.

Thinking of this, Baili Mingyan looked back at the northwest, and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the most terrifying thing was on his side.

And just when Baili Mingyan was thinking this way, Qian Yuhan also had the same thought when facing the three people in front of him, fortunately Baili Mingyan was not here.

As expected, the person who played the flute was indeed Xiao Jinle. After not seeing him for many days, he was uncharacteristically not dressed up in fancy clothes. He was simply dressed in a sky blue satin shirt and stood on the ridge of the roof. The night wind blew the clothes tightly against his body. From a distance, it looks a little out of shape.Perhaps because of his injuries, Xiao Jinle held the jade flute in both hands, as if trying to endure something, his face looked particularly pale under the hazy moonlight.

Xiao Jinle did not conceal her identity at all, and just appeared in Qian Yuhan's field of vision so generously, even if Qian Yuhan came through the air, she did not raise her eyelids, and continued to concentrate on playing.

Qian Yuhan didn't stop because of the opponent's composure, and directly pulled out Chen Yu and slashed at it with a biting murderous aura, and was suddenly repelled by a sword light a second before he approached Xiao Jinle.

Qian Yuhan was stunned for a moment when he saw the familiar sword, but soon he continued to attack Xiao Jinle.Wuhenjian once again met Shenyudao, and the sword and sword collided repeatedly in the cold night sky, sparking dazzling sparks. The opponent's every move was extremely murderous, and Qian Yuhan couldn't do his best.

Even if the Wuhen sword reappeared, he couldn't be sure that the person in front of him was Huo Yunqi.Baili Mingyan said that he was certain, but in fact he couldn't make a conclusion in his heart.After all, people cannot be resurrected after death, and no one can come back smoothly after walking through the gate of hell like him. Except for a Wuhen sword, the martial arts moves of this masked man are very different from Huo Yunqi's. It was someone who used Huo Yunqi's saber to deliberately appear in front of him to disturb his mind.But Qian Yuhan always had an intuition that the man in black in front of him was Huo Yunqi.

Qian Yuhan was only distracted for a moment before the sleeve was cut by the sword edge. The silver edge of the sword refracted the moonlight and cast it on the eyes of the man in black. Qian Yuhan was shocked and then retreated a few steps and landed steadily on the last thin tile on the roof. superior.

"Yunqi..." Qian Yuhan suddenly called out the name that was pressing in his heart.

The man in black came quickly with Wuhen in his hands, without stopping for a second.

Qian Yuhan's eyes were like a deep well, calm, but at the last second when Wuhen's blade landed on the tip of his nose, he suddenly yelled: "Huo! Yun! Get up——"

The tip of Wuhen's sword hovered above the tip of his nose, and the man in black suddenly stopped in front of him.

Qian Yuhan was stunned, and the next second his excitement almost rushed out of his heart. He continued to ask in disbelief: "Yun Qi, is that you? Is it really you?!"

But before he could ask another question, a strange flute sound suddenly floated in the air. It was not Xiao Jinle's Xiao sound, but the fourth person who had been watching from the sidelines.

It was also a few seconds after the flute sounded, the person in front of him suddenly moved again, holding Wuhen and stabbing at Qianyuhan without hesitation.It was at this moment that Qian Yuhan suddenly understood the joints, and he desperately stepped back to try to avoid the Wuhen sword's attack, but even in his heyday, he couldn't survive the Wuhen sword in front of him. And retreat.

"Boom-"

The object that flew suddenly knocked down the Wuhen sword, Qian Yuhan looked at the object subconsciously for a moment, and saw that the black round object rolled down the roof after knocking down the Wuhen sword, and then the object fell to the ground There was a "crack" sound of porcelain breaking.

That turned out to be a small wine jar!

After seeing the wine jar clearly, Qian Yuhan didn't even need to turn his head to know who Cheng Yaojin was who broke out halfway.Only a lazy voice sounded beside my ear: "Pavilion Master Qian, your skills have regressed a bit, you can't even catch a flamboyant who can only play flute."

The person known as 'Huajiao' also stopped suddenly at this moment, and Xiao Jinle's melodious and melodious Xiao sound disappeared for a while, leaving only the strange low and rough flute sound.

Taking advantage of this momentary interruption, Qian Yuhan had already changed his posture and blocked Chen Yu in front of him, always guarding against further attacks from the man in black in front of him, and the actions of the man in black also confirmed Qian Yuhan's thoughts.After realizing that the weapon was missing, the man in black quickly took out a dagger from his cuff and continued to attack Qian Yuhan.

And the man in black who lost the Wuhen sword is obviously not as good as Qian Yuhan who is holding the sinking fish. Even if Qian Yuhan didn't try his best, Qian Yuhan quickly pushed the man in black into desperation.The Wuhen sword was picked up by Gu Shangqing, who came from behind, and held a beautiful sword flower in his hand, which seemed to be very convenient. He played with the sword in his hand as he walked, and he hardly paused. He didn't say a word to Qian Yuhan The exchange suddenly accelerated and attacked Xiao Jinle.

The sudden appearance of Gu Shangqing has already put Xiao Jinle into a state where it is difficult to calm down. At this time, seeing Gu Shangqing attacking suddenly, even before he could draw out his weapon, he was forced to block with the jade flute in his hand, but what kind of weapon is the Wuhen sword? A flimsy jade flute can stop it, and Gu Shangqing is really not a person who knows how to love a baby, so the strength of his shots is quite heavy.No matter how Xiao Jinle relieved his strength with kung fu moves, Yu Xiao could not escape the final tragedy, but the jade flute in Xiao Jinle's hand made a heart-shattering cracking sound twice, and broke into two pieces under the Wuhen sword.

After watching the treasure in his heart be cut off by Gu Shangqing, Xiao Jinle, who had been calm all this time, finally spoke. His voice was very sad, as if a lonely wind and cold rain were pouring on his heart. .

"Shangqing, you really hate me so much that you don't even give me the last chance?" He raised his head and closed his eyes, then opened his eyes to see Gu Shangqing pointing at his sword, and suddenly took a step forward.

Gu Shangqing didn't retreat, and the Wuhen sword pierced straight into his chest.
