Chapter 431 The unknown person
His strength was declining rapidly. It was tiring to travel alone, and now he had to bear the burden of another burden. I couldn't help but complain, "See, this is why you insisted on following me. Are you happy now?"
Li Xue didn't have time to argue with me, she was very busy. We were all trying to escape, but she was here collecting herbs.
"Hey, how come there are so many medicinal herbs here? If we had known this, we wouldn't have to jump off the cliff!"
She continued to pick herbs, but couldn't find a suitable place, so she stuck my vest on my belt and stuffed all the herbs into my arms.
When she put on my belt, she didn't care whether it fit or not, and she didn't care at all. Her heartless behavior left me speechless. Anyway, she didn't bother me, so I ignored her.
But even so, I couldn't shake Zhao Feng off. He was scrambling up and down the cliff, much more agile than I was. When I fell, I was like a clumsy sloth, while he was like an agile ape.
If this continues, he will surpass me sooner or later. In a panic, mistakes are inevitable. I reached out to grab a vine, but failed. It turned out that the vine was just a floating vine and could not bear the weight of both of us. Fortunately, I quickly reached out to hold the rock beside me, so I didn't fall.
Li Xue said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm here, just go forward with peace of mind."
I said, "I'm afraid of you, so I feel scared, haha..."
"I've already told you that I have a solution, but you're still wandering around here. Okay, stop talking, it's my turn now."
I remained silent, concentrating on my journey. Li Xue didn't know what she was doing, but fumbled in her backpack. Maybe I took the wrong road, anyway I couldn't tell, she almost stepped on a trap and lost my life.
She also put the weapon in my trouser pocket. If he could, he would show her the power of the weapon.
She looked like she had applied some medicine on the road. As we were sliding down, he just happened to pass by us and didn't notice anything unusual.
Now, he was only one minute away from me, but I was so tired that I was out of breath and almost fell down. At the critical moment, Li Xue reached out and grabbed her, saving her life.
At this moment, the Skeleton King above him suddenly trembled all over, like a leper, and was about to fall. Although he didn't know what happened, he didn't continue to chase him, which was good news.
I was exhausted, but I still gathered my strength and slid down the canyon. Unexpectedly, before I landed, the skeleton fell from the air and hit a big rock, with its arms and legs broken and scattered all over the ground.
Although it was already badly damaged, the monster's strength was not diminished at all, and its limbs were still twisting constantly, trying to fight back.
However, compared to its intact state, its power was greatly reduced, and I quickly kicked it away and it disappeared without a trace. Except for its limbs and head, the other parts were just decorations and posed no threat.
I fell to the ground, gasping for breath. This escape had exhausted him. If it weren't for Li Xue, he wouldn't have ended up like this. It was also her who completely defeated the Skeleton King. It's hard to judge.
"Xue'er, what's going on?" I asked.
Li Xue raised her head and said proudly, "You won't understand even if I tell you, so it's better not to say more."
I said angrily, "Do you look down on me so much? Tell me, why don't I understand?"
Li Xue did not hide anything from me and told me all the materials and dosages needed. I listened carefully and only listened once before she told me everything.
"Although these medicinal herbs are difficult to refine, I have never heard of one of them, the 'Purple Thunder Pill'. What is that?" I asked.
Li Xue said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to know so much about herbs. It's quite impressive." She looked at me for the first time, and then said: "Purple lightning is almost extinct. It has the power to attract lightning. There is only one kind in the world."
"Where's the person? When can I see him?"
Such a magical medicine was not even mentioned in the Compendium of Materia Medica. Li Xue was stunned for a long time after I asked her this question, and then she slapped her forehead hard.
"It's really strange, how could there be such a magical medicine? But I can't tell exactly where it came from, but what is certain is that it was not stolen from us." Li Xue frowned. She was very interested in these high-tech things, but she was not interested in medicines.
But where did this purple lightning come from? She pondered over it, the pain was unbearable, her head ached, and her pretty face turned pale.
I didn't expect that such a simple sentence would have such a big impact on her. I comforted her, "Don't worry, it's no big deal. When did we meet?"
Before I could finish my words, she hit me hard: "You little brat! Who is the first person you met? What kind of nonsense is in your head? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will not be polite!"
This girl is too cruel. She almost blinded my eyes. How can I live in the future? But after this incident, she did not continue to ask about the source of the purple lightning. Instead, she glared at me fiercely, as if she would kill me if I said another word.
I sighed. This attack was worth it. I just hope she's okay. My eyes fell on the Skeleton King who was still twitching. How did he do it? He was beaten like this, but he could still move?
This shocked me more than the mutants.
Just as he was looking around, a "cracking" sound suddenly rang out in the darkness, as if something was gathering towards him. This canyon was full of strange-shaped rocks, could there be ghosts hiding in it?
"Xue'er, it's time for us to go home!" I said to Li Xue anxiously. Although the road here is difficult, if we can use the rope and climb hard, we may be able to reach the top of the mountain before dawn.
Just as I was frantically trying to find the rope, Li Xue suddenly stopped me and said, "Don't move. Come here and take a look. Am I seeing things? A black object, like a ball, is rolling towards me."
I looked carefully and saw a round object flying towards me, and it was in front of me in the blink of an eye.
I then realized that it was not a ball at all, but a huge skull. He kicked it away just now, but now it ran back by itself. What was he doing?
Moreover, the limbs that I kicked apart returned to their original positions. I angrily said, "You just smashed me into pieces, and now you want to go back, do you want to die?"
I picked up a large wooden stick and smashed it hard on the monster's head. Its limbs were also bounced off and could not be fused with the body.
It rolled on the ground, more violently than before. It was obvious that this was a big threat and he couldn't leave.
"Xue'er, wait a moment, I'll go make a fire." I knew that the current strength was not enough.
To make him fall from such a high place, it is impossible to subdue him without more than 500 kilograms of strength. With my current strength, which is only more than 200 kilograms, it is difficult to shake him even if I use all my strength.
Firewood was easy to find, so I put the skeleton on the fire to roast it. I saw the skeleton twisting in the flames, as if it was afraid of fire.
This corpse was definitely not a coincidence, but was deliberately cultivated by Longya. Obviously, they did not expect that the strength of this skull demon would be so strong.
At this moment, the people of Sunlight City and Dragon Fang relaxed, and the people from Groups 2 to 5 did not show any strength because they had lost track of the Skeleton King.
However, the helicopter circled in the air for more than an hour, but found nothing. The first batch of 19 people were found, only Li Xue and I were not found.
"No way?"
"This guy is so unlucky." Long Hai smiled bitterly and said, "This is what my master told me. Even if I kill him, he won't survive."
Speaking of the master, Long Hai realized that this old man was really fast. When the Bone King attacked Long Ya, his master had already disappeared along with several of his disciples. Long Hai felt that his master had noticed this, so he left first, leaving him alone.
"Master, what a shitty luck I have!" Long Hai cursed in his heart, and then ordered his companions: "Pick up your weapons, no matter if you live or die, you must find Chen Liu."
"Isn't it too much to mobilize so many people just for one apprentice?"
"The most important thing right now is not the elites, but the ordinary disciples. What if they are killed by the Skeleton King?"
"That will have to wait until tomorrow morning. By then, the Skeleton King will not attack again, and we will be safe." Long Hai was speechless and could only look at Bai Yu: "Please let the dean decide."
"Chen Liu is very important to us, and ordinary people cannot understand it." Before Bai Yu could speak, several old men couldn't wait to say:
"What is there to decide? Dean Bai has already given the order. You should go now. Don't delay any further!"
"If we can't even find Chen Liu, what's the point of Dragon Fang? Finding him is the most important thing!"
All the senior disciples were stunned. They didn't expect that this unknown person would have such privileges. For a moment, the scene became a little chaotic.
Finally, Long Hai stayed behind to comfort the people, while everyone else, except the wounded, Bai Yu and the old man, took a helicopter to the scene for a carpet search.
I know nothing about this matter.
The canyon was so deep that not only were there no sounds from humans shouting, but even a helicopter flying over them would not make any sound.
