1110 The rules of the test

The body of the shopkeeper behind the counter had already rotted to an unrecognizable state. The so-called gray robe was actually the body of countless mosquitoes and flies. Upon closer inspection, it was creepy and nauseating. It was a corpse that had been dead for an unknown period of time!

Seeing that his companion, who had stood up to urge him, had suddenly stopped talking, the head of escorts immediately asked,”Old Qian, what’s wrong?”

Bodyguard Qian suddenly turned his head and was about to say something when fresh blood seeped out from the cracks in the green bricks on the ground, soaking the shoes of the group of bodyguards in an instant.

At the same time, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in from somewhere. In an instant, everyone felt a bone-chilling aura, from their tailbones all the way to the top of their heads.

The wind lanterns shook violently. Suddenly, they transformed into human heads hanging high in the air. Their faces were ferocious and vicious. Their mouths were wide open, and a cluster of dark green flames burned on the tip of their tongues.

The light that suddenly turned green shone on the faces of many strangers, turning them into a pale green color, as if they were ghosts.

All the bodyguards ‘expressions changed drastically!

???

The rain rumbled, and the West Wind was cold.

The bean-sized raindrops patted on his face, and his skin was a little numb.

The four bodyguards spread out slightly and shouted as they urged their strength to move, following the waiter to the backyard.

After walking for a long time, the heavy rain continued to pour. The lanterns hanging on the carriage flew up and down in the wind and rain, illuminating the surroundings.

Everything was similar to the situation at the inn’s entrance. The bodyguards gradually became vigilant. The inn didn’t look big, but why were they still not in the backyard after walking for so long?

The four of them secretly looked at each other through the curtain of rain and clenched their sabers tightly.

One of the bodyguards immediately asked, ” “Waiter, how much longer until we reach the backyard?”

The waiter did not say a word and continued to walk forward.

Seeing this, the four bodyguards realized that something was wrong. The bodyguard continued to shout, ” “Waiter, I’m asking you a question!”

tap, tap, tap … the waiter didn’t seem to hear it and continued to walk unhurriedly.

Shua!

The next moment, one of the bodyguards pulled out his knife, rushed through the rain, and slashed at the waiter’s head!

Clang!

The knife cut through the rain without any resistance and landed on the waiter’s neck.

The waiter didn’t move an inch, but the bodyguard’s hand went numb from the shock, and his long saber immediately flew out of his hand.

“Bang!”

The four bodyguards were stunned when they saw the long saber fall to the ground. The waiter finally stopped in his tracks. His body did not move, but he turned his head around with a “ka ka ka” sound.

The corners of his pale face suddenly curled up, revealing an extremely strange and sinister smile.

“Hehehehehe …”

The sharp and ear-piercing laughter echoed in the night rain.

The wind seemed to have gotten colder, and the pitter-patter of the rain seemed to have isolated the world.

Seeing such an abnormal scene, even though the four bodyguards were all experienced people, their expressions changed drastically. Without any hesitation, they turned around and ran!

There’s something wrong with this Inn, so I have to quickly find the head of escorts!

Heavy rain poured down, and water vapor filled the air.

The four bodyguards ran as if they were flying, and in the blink of an eye, they had left the waiter behind.

After running for quite a distance, seeing that the waiter didn’t catch up, the bodyguard at the front suddenly said, ” “Invulnerable! What was that thing just now?”

“Even if he’s the head of the escorts, it’s impossible for him to be completely fine after being cut in the neck!”

“I hope the head of escorts can deal with that thing …”

As he spoke, the bodyguard gradually felt that something was wrong. He turned around and saw that there was no one behind him. The three companions who had fled with him had all disappeared without a trace!

The bodyguard was shocked. At this moment, a head that was still dripping blood rolled out from the dark like a ball and stopped at his feet.

The escort lowered his head and immediately realized that it was the head of the head of the escort!

His face instantly turned pale, and his eyes suddenly widened with extreme fear.

The bodyguard didn’t dare to make a sound and hurriedly turned to escape. However, as great fear seized his body and soul, he staggered and fell to the ground the moment he took a step.

He couldn’t care less about his sorry state. He hurriedly rolled and crawled up from the rain and ran for his life …

???

“Oh oh oh …”

The pitch-black night gradually turned into a daze with the sound of a rooster crowing.

Soon, the sky was slightly bright, illuminating the barren wilderness. Behind the simple stone tablet, there was a lonely grave.

The grave was overgrown with weeds, and there was no one around.

At this moment, a felt cart was being pulled by horses, next to the grave. Around the carriage, 15 armed men dressed as bodyguards were lying on the grass. A group of mounts were scattered around, snorting from time to time, revealing an uneasy expression. They were not even in the mood to gnaw on the occasional tender leaves on the grass.

“Ah!”

All of a sudden, a shrill cry of alarm rang out, jolting the head of escorts awake. He touched his neck and quickly came back to his senses. He had just had a nightmare.

He quickly leaped up and quickly observed his surroundings.

Soon, he found a gravestone among the wild grass, trees, and crows. The gravestone was blank, and there was nothing on it. Behind it was a lonely grave.

Beside the grave, the brothers of the bodyguard agency were all there, as were the carriages carrying the goods.

The chief’s eyes twitched. Without any hesitation, he immediately walked forward and pushed his companion.”Old Qian, wake up! Quickly wake up!”

“Little Qiu, wake up! Wake up!”

“Elder Zhao, elder Hu …”

After kicking and pulling everyone awake, he quickly got into the car to check the goods. However, he saw that everything was normal in the car. The seals of the goods were intact, and there were no traces of them being touched.

“Ah …”

“What’s going on …”

“Didn’t I die? Uncle Qian, didn’t you die as well?”

The bodyguards woke up one by one. Everyone opened their eyes, their faces still filled with fear and despair.

Seeing that everyone was fine and the goods were still there, the head of escorts didn’t waste any time and directly ordered,”Get on your horses and quickly leave this place!”

None of the bodyguards had any objections. They mounted their horses as fast as they could and left as fast as they could.

The sky gradually brightened, and the tombs and gravestones became clearer and clearer.

Under the West Wind, the lonely grave was quiet, adding a bit of desolation.

The figures of PEI Ling and the rest slowly appeared.

Looking in the direction the escort party left, PEI Ling nodded slightly.

This time, only ti made a move. This was to test the rules on the gravestone and also to familiarize itself with the methods of curse’s former subordinates.

“The second rule can indeed restore our cultivation and strength,” PEI Ling said as his mind whirred.

“But this time, only the mortals were shocked, and there were too few of them.”

“We haven’t recovered much of our cultivation.”

“Besides, only ‘ti’ attacked this time, but the five of us have recovered some of our strength.”

if I’m not wrong, before we reach the peak, our cultivation base will be synchronized.
