Chapter 366 Treating human lives like bricks and tiles

Deep in the jungles of the wild lands of the far west, a strange kind of ladybug grows.

The bug itself does not emit light, but if an object with heat appears within a hundred meters, the bug will be sensed and emit a faint light.

Because of this special endowment, as long as the bug is processed in a special way, then ground into powder, mixed with potion when used, and then smeared on the telescope, you can see in the dark. .

Therefore, Zhen Juncheng's every move cannot escape the man's eyes.

Seeing that he had retreated to the edge of the jungle, the man sneered silently, and then jumped into the darkness.

Zhen Juncheng, who was crawling on the ground, suddenly sensed the approaching danger. Although he didn't know what it was, his reaction was not unpleasant.

I saw him jumping up from the ground like a carp, and then ran deep into the jungle.

As he ran, he kept changing directions to prevent him from being targeted by crossbow arrows.

It must be said that his responses were accurate and effective.

If it had been anyone else, he might have really run away.

But the man doesn't care about this at all.

When Zhen Juncheng frantically fled deep into the jungle, the man just took out a strange-looking crossbow from the bag on his back, took a brief aim, and then pulled the trigger.

The sound of the crossbow arrows piercing the air made all the hair on Zhen Juncheng's body stand up, and his figure kept shaking to avoid being targeted.

But in the next moment, a crossbow arrow hit a tree not far in front of him.

But before Zhen Juncheng could breathe a sigh of relief, countless strands of silk thread suddenly shot out from the end of the crossbow arrow, directly covering Zhen Juncheng.

Zhen Juncheng was shocked and struggled hard.

But unfortunately, I don't know what kind of material these threads are made of. Not to mention they are extremely tough, and the more they struggle, the tighter they become.

In the blink of an eye, deep blood marks appeared on Zhen Juncheng's arms and legs.

Seeing this scene, the people in the barracks were also dumbfounded.

Then I don’t know who got the start.

These people dispersed in a hurry and ran wildly in various directions of the jungle.

The man ignored these people.

During the day, he could see clearly that this group of people respected Zhen Juncheng.

So as long as you control him, other shrimp soldiers and crab generals don't have to pay attention to him.

The man walked towards Zhen Juncheng slowly.

At this time, Zhen Juncheng lay down on the ground as if resigned to his fate, his face full of despair.

no way.

These threads are so weird.

The more you struggle, the tighter it tightens.

If you go deeper, you will probably cut to the bone.

In desperation, Zhen Juncheng had no choice but to give up.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Zhen Juncheng was filled with panic and tried his best to look up.

When the man finally walked up to him and caught his eye, Zhen Juncheng couldn't help but be stunned.

Isn't this the slovenly man we met at the tea stall during the day?

He could actually be from the Guan Sect?

Although he was frightened in his heart, Zhen Juncheng still forced himself to calm down and spoke in a tone that tried not to detect any emotional fluctuations.

"Friend, Wanghailou and I had no grudges with you in the past, but we have no grudges these days. Why are you so cruel?"

The man slowly knelt down and said, "Are you going to Mohai City?"

Zhen Juncheng's heart skipped a beat.

As expected, this man is related to the Gui family in Mohai City.

Thinking of this, Zhen Juncheng simply hated Pei Quan'an who encouraged him to come here.

Oh shit.

They keep saying that the Gui family does not have a strong backing.

Isn’t this backstage hard enough?

But now, it's too late to regret.

Zhen Juncheng did not dare to lie, so he could only answer honestly: "Yes, we are indeed going to Mohai City, but we didn't know before that Mohai City was related to the Guan Sect. If we had known, we would never have done this. Waiting for something stupid, so please give me a chance, okay?”

When Zhen Juncheng said this, his heart was filled with humiliation.

Ever since he was a child, he has never begged anyone in this tone.

But there is no other way. At this time, everyone is a knife and I am a fish!

The situation is stronger than the person, so I have no choice but to bow my head.

The man smiled, "How do you know I'm from the Guan Sect?"

Zhen Juncheng complained in his heart.

You are both a crossbow and an explosive machine. Who can't think about the machine sect?

The man seemed to understand that it was unnecessary to ask, so he nodded.

"Yes, I do come from the Guizong Sect. The Gui family of Mohai City has an old relationship with me. Seeing that you were so aggressive on this trip, there must be nothing good going on, so I took action to stop you."

Zhen Juncheng just wanted to cry without tears.

"What if we mean no harm?"

The man smiled, "Do you believe this? Mohai City is just a small place, and Gui Heshu and his wife are very low-key. No matter how you look at it, they don't seem to be related to your Wanghai Tower."

"So besides occupying Mohai City's property, I really can't think of any other reason for your visit."

"Of course, if I guess wrong..."

The man paused, and then wrote lightly: "Then I can only blame you for your bad luck."

Zhen Juncheng felt cold all over.

Because he couldn't hear any emotion from the man's tone, as if the people who died in his hands just now were not human beings, but broken bricks and tiles.

It's not like he has never seen ruthless people who take human life lightly.

In fact, even he himself doesn't care about the lives of others.

But he asked himself that he could not be like a man and regard life as nothing.

The rumors are indeed true, there are a bunch of lunatics in the Guanzong sect.

Zhen Juncheng was trembling slightly, as if he had seen his tragic fate.

The man couldn't help but smile when he saw this, "Don't be nervous, I'm not planning to kill you yet. Let's talk about who tipped you off so that you were attracted to Mohai City, which is thousands of miles away."

Now that things have happened, Zhen Juncheng certainly has no need to hide anything for Pei Quan'an.

So he told the whole story like he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

certainly.

The focus of his description was on how Pei Quan'an deceived him and how he was deceived.

After listening, the man nodded.

"So, you are an innocent person who was deceived?"

"No, that's not what I meant. I was just obsessed with money for a while, so I did such a stupid thing. Please forgive me this time." Zhen Juncheng couldn't care less about shame at this time and began to beg for mercy. .

"It's actually not difficult to survive, but you have to play a game with me." The man said with great interest.

"what game?"

Zhen Juncheng asked hopefully, like a drowning man grasping at the last straw.

"I will let you go later and give you a stick of incense to escape. If you can escape, that goes without saying. If you can't escape, you will have to be the soul killed by my arrow." The man said calmly. .

Zhen Juncheng couldn't help but perked up when he heard this.

As long as you let yourself go, not to mention a stick of incense, it takes more than ten seconds to escape from here.

And with this experience, Zhen Juncheng is confident that he will not fall into the trap like before.

So he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"No problem, I do!"

The man grinned, "Okay, this is what you said, don't go back on it."

"Don't worry, I won't regret it." Zhen Jun said sincerely.

But the next second, the confidence on his face solidified.

Because at this moment, the man suddenly took out something from his arms, and then locked it on his foot with a bang.

Then the man took out a small bottle, uncorked it and poured the liquid inside onto the silk threads wrapped around Zhen Juncheng.

In an instant, all this made Zhen Juncheng so anxious that the extremely tough silk thread quickly melted and disappeared.

"Let's get started. Remember, you only have one stick of incense." The man stood up and said calmly.

Zhen Juncheng just woke up from a dream, and then went crazy to fiddle with the chains on his ankles.

It turns out that the man just locked Zhen Juncheng's legs with a chain that was as thin as a thumb and looked very delicate.

But no matter how hard Zhen Juncheng used his strength, this seemingly weak chain could not move at all.

The man looked on with a smile, and even reminded him from time to time.

“One-fifth of the incense sticks have been burned!”

"Two out of five incense sticks are burning!"

This reminder was like a life-threatening Sanskrit sound, making Zhen Juncheng's already frightened mood even more agitated.

In the end, he even used his teeth, but the chain remained unmoved.

Just when Zhen Juncheng was falling into hysterical madness, the man said calmly: "If I were you, I shouldn't be entangled with this chain now, but should find a way to escape first."

One word awakens the dreamer.

Zhen Juncheng suddenly shivered, knowing that he didn't have much time left.

If you continue to struggle with this chain at this time, it is indeed easy to die in an unknown manner.

So he gritted his teeth, stood up from the ground, and then jumped into the depths of the jungle like a zombie.

The reason for choosing this direction is because the terrain becomes more complicated as you go inside, and the obstruction of branches and leaves can effectively prevent sneak attacks by archers.

And if you run towards the road, you will die even if you run out.

After all, no one can outrun a flying crossbow.

Although his legs were chained and his movement was greatly hindered, Zhen Juncheng still jumped into the depths of the dense jungle at an extremely fast speed with his strong desire to survive.

The branches and leaves kept crossing the body, and soon the clothes and hair were messed up.

This is simply unimaginable for Zhen Juncheng, who always pays attention to image.

But now I don’t care about that much anymore.

Zhen Juncheng kept jumping around, killing this man countless times in his heart.

Don't let me find a chance. If I find a chance, I will cut you into pieces.

But at this moment, a crossbow arrow appeared from nowhere and flew past his scalp. It hit a boulder in front of him and penetrated deeply into it. Only its tail feathers were trembling slightly outside.

This blow immediately dispersed all the slander and dissatisfaction in Zhen Juncheng's heart.

He turned pale and looked back.

He saw a man standing on a big tree not far away, holding a crossbow in his hand and smiling at him.

"Sorry, the shot missed!"

Zhen Juncheng turned around and ran away.

But in his desperation, he forgot that his feet were chained, so he stumbled and fell into his lap.

Before he could turn over, another crossbow arrow flew through the air, shot directly into the back of his head, came out of his mouth, and then nailed him deeply to the ground.

Although he was seriously injured, due to the powerful vitality of the top open pulse, Zhen Juncheng did not die for a while, but his limbs kept twitching, as if he was about to get up at any time, which looked particularly terrifying in the late night mountain forest.

The man didn't take it seriously at all. After jumping down from the tree, he walked up to Zhen Juncheng, put his foot on his neck, and then slowly pulled out the crossbow arrow.

puff!

Flesh and brain were mixed together, forming a strange purple color, rushing out from the wound on the back of the head.

It was only then that Zhen Juncheng stopped twitching and died completely.

The man wiped the arrowhead with his clothes, then leaned down to unlock the chain and put it back.

This was not over yet. Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, the man looted Zhen Juncheng's body, even the hosta used to tie his hair.

After being stripped naked, the man put all the loot into his bag, and then sighed at Zhen Juncheng's dead body on the ground.

"Even the elders of Wanghai Tower are so greedy. It seems that their family style is not very good."

"It's no wonder that Jiang Shengwu is not a good guy. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. This is normal."

After saying these words, the man turned back to the empty barracks, searched again, and then left.

After daybreak, only those who had the chance to escape had the courage to return to the camp.

It was already noon when Zhen Juncheng's dead body was found.

When they saw Zhen Juncheng dead, these people panicked.

After all, they came out with Zhen Juncheng this time, and their purpose was not obvious to outsiders.

Now that Zhen Juncheng is dead, if the host Jiang Shengwu finds out about this, even they will have to live with it.

Thinking of this, these people looked at each other and then dispersed in a tacit understanding. No one mentioned the matter of reporting back to Wanghai Tower.

Anyway, the land of alienation is big enough. If you find a remote place to hide, no matter how powerful Wanghai Tower is, you probably won't be able to find yourself.

With this idea in mind, these surviving people dispersed like birds and beasts.

Only Zhen Juncheng's body was left in the jungle, but it soon disappeared under the gnawing of wild beasts.

And just when Zhen Juncheng's body had turned into a beast to eat, Pei Quan'an and Nangong brothers in Mohai City were still waiting for his arrival.

On this day, the Nangong brothers came to Pei Quan'an and asked with livid faces.

"What's going on? Didn't you say someone would come in five days at most? It's been eight days now, but I haven't even seen a shadow. Are you reliable?"

Pei Quan'an was also full of doubts, "It shouldn't be. I just received the flying pigeon message from the master a few days ago. It said very clearly that Elder Zhen personally led the team and has already come down the mountain!"

"You used the same rhetoric at the beginning, and you still use the same rhetoric now. Do you think we two brothers are easy to fool?" Nangong Buliang asked murderously.

Due to Pei Quan'an's identity, both of them were very polite to him before.

But now that things have changed, the two of them no longer have the intention to pretend anymore.

Pei Quan'an was also anxious.

How could he know what was going on?

Nangong Buliang was even more furious when he saw this. Just when he was about to get angry, his brother Nangong Jiuliang stopped him.

"Brother, please stop talking."

Then he looked at Pei Quan'an.

"Are you sure they really set off?"

"Of course!"

"Then there are only two possibilities. One is that the elder Zhen you said is not here at all. He is completely fooling you."

"This is impossible!" Pei Quan'an said firmly.

"Secondly, something happened to Elder Zhen on the way here."
