Chapter 50: I'd rather die

Gu Shenwei is like a lonely brave man swimming in the endless ocean, encountering a small island when he is most tired, knowing that the target is still outside the skyline, and he will have to continue swimming sooner or later, but he is greedy for the comfort of this moment, and finds all kinds of excuses to postpone the time to enter the water again.

The Roc Bird is his island, and he loves these two strange creatures and even fears them.

For two months, unless it rained heavily, he could see the birds almost every day, eat the flowers and fruits they brought, chat a few words, and touch the black and shiny feathers when they were in a good mood.

The Roc Bird is like a majestic elder, fond of this unusual human, constantly bringing gifts, but maintaining a lofty posture, only allowing him to occasionally break through the line and be naughty.

Before that sad moment came, Gu Shenwei had no premonition, although Xue Niang was beginning to become impatient, frequently urging him to speed up his progress, although Shangguan Yushi became more and more unable to hide the jealousy in his heart, and often gave him a look, but overall, these two months were not shocking, Shangguan Ru increasingly regarded him as a cronie, and the madness did not happen again, it was the easiest period since he entered Jinpeng Castle.

It's not like the real life of a hateful person, and if you have to look for an omen, this might be one.

That morning, Gu Shenwei came to the boulder cliff as usual, packed up the sundries, practiced martial arts for a while, Dapeng Bird came as promised, this time brought a few black and big fruits, he still didn't know, a bite down but delicious and juicy, he quickly ate it up, and threw the fruit core far away.

He nagged them about the trivial matters of the near future: if one of the wooden knives that the Ninth Prince Shangguan liked was missing, I don't know if it fell to the bottom of the cliff, if they could see it, it was best to bring it up, it would be a great help.

The Dapeng Bird couldn't understand human words, and he just said it casually, not seriously.

Normally, the birds did not stay for a long time, but today it was very short, and after laying down the fruit, they wanted to fly away, but they reluctantly stayed because of the obvious disappointed expression of the human boy.

But they were a little nervous, listening and looking around uneasily, this nervousness became stronger and stronger, and finally passed on to Gu Shenwei, who had already reacted before he understood what was happening, reaching out to the two big birds, "Let's go, let's go, come back tomorrow." ”

The Roc nodded, they had always been silent and never chirped, the male turned and spread his wings, and the female was still looking at the human boy, as if she wanted to give him a little kindness before leaving.

It was at this moment that the two great nets were unleashed, and everything ended.

One net fell from the sky from the high wall in the west, and the other net was sent under the cliff in the east, up and down, forming a net of heaven and earth, and pounced on the Dapeng Bird and Gu Shenwei.

The male bird has spread his wings and flies to the ground, using his long beak and sharp claws together, tearing the large net rising from the cliff in an instant.

The female hesitated, then stretched out her leg to set the human boy aside, and a large net falling from under the high wall covered it.

Gu Shenwei fell down from the boulder, the female bird did not use much force, he was not injured, just in time to see the male bird return to the ground to help, and the female bird tore the big net together.

Even in this critical moment, they did not make a sound.

The big net lost its effect, but the big bird lost the most precious opportunity to escape, the second and third nets came one after another, a total of five nets, layer upon layer, impermeable.

Gu Shenwei only felt that his blood was surging, as if he had witnessed the killing of his family, he yelled meaninglessly, and rushed up to pull those nets, but with his little internal strength, the help he provided was tantamount to a drop in the bucket.

The two Roc birds struggled hard, their strength and beak sharpness were still beyond the imagination of the ambushers, and it didn't take long for the male to take the lead in tearing a gap in the top of his head, and instead of taking off immediately, he moved one step and continued to expand the opening, allowing the female to go first.

The ambushers jumped out of the walls and from the bottom of the cliffs, each dressed from head to toe in gray, almost the same color as the rocks, and their faces were masked, revealing only cold, merciless eyes.

More than a dozen people grabbed the big net, and another six people pounced on the Dapeng bird.

Gu Shenwei pounced on the nearest ambusher, the man didn't even look at it, his right foot kicked out like lightning, Gu Shenwei seemed to have never practiced martial arts at all, he was hit in the lower abdomen, and the whole person flew out and fell heavily under the high wall.

The male and female roc birds peeked their heads out of the net, but their wings were still in the net, and the six ambushers threw ropes around the necks of each of the two birds.

The more thrilling it was, the more calm the Dapeng bird became, and it suddenly turned in place together, and all the ambushers were dragged and even unsteady on their feet, and they all ran with it.

Taking advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, the two big birds pecked with their sharp beaks, and the speed and accuracy of the attack were comparable to the first-class masters, and the six closest ambushers were in a hurry in an instant, and one of them couldn't dodge and was pecked in the eye.

This man was also strong, and he only snorted, and he still held the end of the rope tightly despite the blood gushing from his eye sockets.

The roc bird pecked at the beak and scratched at the same time, tearing a piece from the net with each blow, and the tough wire was as fragile as a weed under its claws.

Gu Shenwei fell to the ground, watching the battle between humans and birds in horror, he couldn't help, he could only pray silently, for the freedom of these two Dapeng birds, he was willing to give everything, and even willing to give up revenge.

But since the day his family was destroyed a year ago, his prayers have never been fulfilled, and God has only teased him, given him hope, and taken away mercilessly.

The Dapeng bird is extremely powerful, and the combined force of more than a dozen ambushes cannot be subdued, seeing that the net hole is getting bigger and bigger, and in a while, the two birds can fly into the air, and then the six rope bearers will either let go, or follow one to the sky.

Several large nets could not withstand the destruction of the big bird, and finally they were torn apart, and the male immediately used his beak and claws, forcing the six leash bearers to let go and retreat, and the female spread her wings, and she could fly.

Gu Shenwei's heart was about to jump out, and he looked up at the body like the female bird mountain, the wings like the wind, and the golden crown feathers like the gods, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up!

The female lifted her feet off the ground and raised her head to the sky, and then, the beautiful head of the world's first and second in the world fell, and the headless body still maintained a flying posture, and red blood rose to the sky, like a red glow that stained the entire sky.

A dark shadow appeared behind the female, like an invisible devil, directly out of the air, holding a narrow, dull knife in his hand, with a cold heart that could freeze steel into powder, even if he killed the most beautiful and noble creature in the world, he did not care in the slightest.

"No!"

Gu Shenwei screamed heartbreakingly, it was like taking him back to the night a year ago, forcing him to watch his loved ones being killed and their heads cut off one by one.

"No!"

Almost at the same time as him, another angry voice rang out, and then a figure flew from the boulder to the north, he was a man, but as agile and graceful as a bird, as if it had wings on its back.

The moment the man flew in, it was the moment when the headless body of the female bird fell, and the killer was landing from the sky, he came first and struck the killer in the chest with a palm.

The masked killer had just killed the Roc Bird and made the biggest mistake of his life, his knife was useless in front of this man, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew beyond the cliff and fell into the bottomless abyss.

The killer didn't scream, the palm had already killed him.

The female bird fell, her head with golden top feathers flipped and landed a few steps away from Gu Shenwei, her yellow eyes still wide open, but she had lost all her brilliance.

But the eyes of the male bird were like burning flames, and he turned his body violently, and his wings brought up a violent whirlwind, and with every blow of his long beak, one must lose his eyes, and every time his claws grasp, one must lose a large piece of flesh.

These fearsome Jinpeng Castle killers are as weak as children in front of the mad Roc Bird.

In an instant, the nearest six people had already died, but the man who jumped from the boulder had quickly retreated, and commanded sharply: "No one is allowed to hurt him if he wants to live!"

More ambushers swarmed in from outside the boulder from the high walls, forty or fifty men.

The male stood proudly, the long feathers on the tips of his wings trembling like a sharp sword, and for a moment no one dared to come forward to challenge.

The male looked down at his dead lover, and suddenly raised his head, his chest seemed to be filled with gas, and he swelled high, and his body doubled in size.

Every ambusher here has killed countless people, but at this time, they are terrified, no matter how their master reprimands, they only dare to approach slowly, and no one wants to be a victim at the moment.

Dismissive of these tiny humans, the male has gathered all his energy and strength to make his first and last call since birth.

The voice was as high-pitched as thunder resounding through the sky, spreading throughout Jinpeng Castle, rampaging all the way, and then to Biyu City at the foot of the mountain, and the whole city was shocked.

Until the male bird fell, the sound still lingered in everyone's ears, and it was a long time to stop.

The male bird just died, and he chose to end his life on his own.

Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and they stood still, and after a while, a voice sighed, "If you don't sing for a lifetime, you will pass away, this is really a real Jinpeng bird, but unfortunately, it hurt one." ”

is still the person who shouted "no" with Gu Shenwei, dressed in gray, with a medium build, a slender face, slightly dark, deep eye sockets, and nothing special in his appearance, but everywhere he showed the killing aura and the aura of a king that could not be concealed, and the killers around him involuntarily lowered their heads in front of him, and even the Jinpeng Castle made of solid stone seemed to be a little shorter.

Gu Shenwei had once felt a powerful murderous aura in Marshal Yang, but compared to this person, it was like a stream meeting the sea.

The grief and anger in Gu Shenwei's heart were suddenly replaced by a fear from the deepest depths, his body was soft, and he could only continue to lie on the ground, and he used all his will to force himself to raise his head, look at the gray-clothed man ten steps away, and know the identity of this person.

A masked killer walked up to Gu Shenwei, knelt down on one leg, pressed the young man's neck with one hand, and held the narrow knife under his waist with the other, and asked the gray-clothed man humbly:

"Lord Wang, what to do with this minion. ”
