Pulling out the silver needle on his head and throwing it on the ground, the mysterious man slowly stood up, his scarlet eyes swept over Zou Dui, Fang Ping, and everyone who was alive.

In the end, the mysterious man's gaze fell back on Zou Dui: "Do you really want to protect them, even if it costs you your life?"

In this desperate situation, there is nothing to hesitate about, it is better to be frank and open! Zou Dui did not hesitate, straightened his spine, and nodded vigorously.

Zou Dui originally thought that the mysterious man would kill the killer next, but who knew that the mysterious man had returned to his sluggish appearance. After a long time, the mysterious person raised his gaze again, and he sighed faintly: "Originally, I thought I was doing the right thing, but now I have been shaken...... Well, I'll give you a chance......"

When Zou Dui and the others heard this, they were all stunned.

The mysterious man didn't talk nonsense, shot a pill at Zou Dui, and pointed at Hongcai, Fang Ping, Zeng Bo and the others: "Take this chronic poison, and then do something for me, I can spare their lives." ”

Zou Dui grabbed the pill ejected by the mysterious man, the pill was blood-colored, as if it was coagulated by human blood, with a touch of purple black, revealing a strange power. Frowning, Zou Dui looked at the mysterious man and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"

The mysterious man flipped his palm, and a delicate box appeared in his hand.

The box was as smooth as jade, delicate and small, only a little larger than a woman's dressing box, with red and black patterns on it. The red pattern is as red as blood, and the black pattern is as black as the night. The two patterns are mixed together, flowing slowly on its cold surface, mysterious and eerie.

Just from the outside, you know that this is not an ordinary box, and you don't know what amazing secrets are hidden inside.

The mysterious man held the box and said to Zou Dui: "What I want you to do for me is very simple, you have half a year after taking the chronic poison, you only need to send this box to the hands of Emperor Wu, the first person in the martial arts today, and complete the task." When the time comes, I will give you the antidote and let these people live. ”

Zou Dui thought about it with heavy eyebrows, and he couldn't choose under the current situation, so he nodded heavily and put the pill to his mouth.

"Brother Zou, don't!"

Rainbow shouted anxiously, but saw that Zou Dui did not hesitate and swallowed the blood-red pill in one gulp.

The moment the pill was in his stomach, Zou Dui felt an indescribable coldness in his body, as if something was absorbing his life force little by little, that is, his body's recovery ability was strong, and he couldn't resist the toxicity of this pill.

Zou Dui was secretly surprised, frowning, he originally felt that his body had a magical recovery ability, and a little chronic poison should not be able to harm him, but obviously the medicinal toxicity of this blood-red pill was obviously not as simple as an ordinary poison!

Seeing Zou Dui take the pill, the mysterious man smiled coldly, gently put the weird box in front of Zou Dui, and then took a few steps back and said, "It's not easy for you to complete this task, there will be many difficulties along the way. Also, for the sake of your life, you must remember that you must never open this box and peep at it under any circumstances......!

The mysterious man paused, and smiled coldly: "I think it's better for you to break yourself off now, because the secret in this box is far more terrifying than death!"

With a sneer, the mysterious figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.

When everyone saw that the mysterious man was gone, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and the cold sweat was soft on the ground, and this kind of taste for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe was not comfortable at all.

Zou Dui couldn't be easy, although the mysterious man had left, but the mysterious man could return at any time, and he had swallowed a powerful poison, if he couldn't complete the task assigned by the mysterious man, he and everyone would still die in the hands of the mysterious man in the end.

Zou Dui frowned and smiled bitterly, the feeling of being controlled by fate was very uncomfortable, he had always been extremely disgusted by this, but unfortunately under the absolute strength gap, there was no room for him to choose......

......

Rainbow silently burned paper money in front of the tombstone of the big cow, and there was Rainbow's name on the tombstone, but the identity was not the surviving person, but the "sister", Zeng Bo on the side saw that he had faintly felt something, but he only sighed and didn't say anything.

Fang Ping looked at the newly erected tombstone, sighed with emotion, and asked Rainbow, "Rainbow girl, you really don't want to go with me and Brother Zou?"

Rainbow nodded firmly: "Rui'er is still young and needs to be taken care of, and I haven't practiced martial arts, so it's a bit of a burden......"

Zeng Bo looked at the new tombs, and finally his eyes fell on the grave of his son Da Niu, and sighed and said, "Cai'er, you better go with Zou Daxia...... The people in this village are only a few old bones left, and staying here is just a short life, you are still young, and it is good to go and see the outside world......"

Fang Ping thought that Zou Dui, who had swallowed the poison, really needed personal care, and nodded: "Rainbow girl, Uncle Zeng has a point, don't you think about it anymore?"

Iridescent shook her head and smiled, "I've already decided. ”

Fang Ping smiled: "Okay then......"

After the matter was decided, everyone left quietly after worshipping again.

For a while, only graves were left between heaven and earth, and the big trees on the hill gently dropped a lot of leaves, flying in the wind, and a crow stopped on the tree and cried miserably, and the cry was heartbreaking......

......

A few days later, when Zou Dui's injuries were fully recovered, Zou Dui left Zengjia Village with Fang Ping.

More than a dozen fathers and villagers who survived the disaster in Zengjia Village sent Zou Dui and others out of the road for more than ten miles, their eyes were reluctant, and various emotions such as worry, hope, and anxiety were portrayed on everyone's faces.

Zou Dui also knew that his line of work was directly related to everyone's net worth and life, so he had to smile and comfort everyone.

"Really not coming with us?"

Zou Dui finally looked at the rainbow that bowed his head and was silent, and asked with a smile.

Rainbow raised her head, shook her head with a smile and said, "Brother Zou, you and Sister Fang take care of yourself......"

Zou Dui nodded, but sighed a few times in his heart. He was very clear about the reason why Rainbow didn't go together, except that Rui'er needed to be taken care of, Rainbow and the others staying in Zengjia Village were actually equivalent to hostages, and Rainbow was obviously afraid that her departure would anger the Divine Fire Sect.

After the massacre of the Shenhuo Sect, Zengjia Village is indeed like a slaughterhouse, and instead of constantly evoking terrifying memories there, it is better to leave and use time to forget all kinds of deaths experienced. But the weak rainbow couldn't leave, which made Zou Dui's heart uncomfortable at all.

But Zou Dui had no choice, let alone a choice, so he could only sigh and leave with Fang Ping.

"Brother Zou, you must come back safely!"

Watching Zou Dui and Fang Ping walk away, Rainbow suddenly burst into tears.

Zou Dui, who was in the distance, heard it, turned around and waved his hand firmly......
