The hard Gobi in the left hand and the frivolous desert in the right hand are like two completely different deadly weapons, one heavy and one light, tormenting the creatures that pass in the middle.

This road starts from Xiaoyaohai Huiguo, slopes to the northwest, and ends in the territory of Shule country, which is not the shortest route, but it is the only safe passage.

A corpse was lying on a blanket, the blood had long since coagulated, and the empty chest cavity was like an abyss, dark and bottomless.

This is the third victim in three days, one person a day, and the killer who follows the line is methodical, like a gourmand who eats everything, chewing slowly and methodically.

Gu Shenwei couldn't force everyone to continue on the road anymore, they ran wild day and night, bent on saving time and getting rid of the stalkers behind them, but the result was a tragic failure.

The killer is always there, he can't see his whereabouts during the day, he can't hear the sound, and when the night comes, he squeezes out of the void like smoke, kills a person, takes out the heart, and disappears again.

Gu Shenwei tried many defenses.

On the first night, they did not stop to rest at all, but hurried all night, and before the early morning, one of the robbers who ran at the back was killed, silently, even the heart was gouged, did not let out a scream, and continued to follow the team on horseback.

It wasn't until dawn that anyone looked back and saw this strange sight: a corpse galloping on horseback.

Shangguan Hong and Shangguan Fei vomited on the spot, almost couldn't get on the horse, Shangguan Ru didn't come to watch at all, and the remaining four robbers were all murderers who didn't blink an eye, and their faces turned pale when they saw their companions who died tragically.

Gu Shenwei personally took the corpse off the horse, left the horse, and ordered everyone to continue on the road, this time, by him and the queen of the lotus girl.

Nothing happened all day.

On the second night, they had to give the horses a rest, so nine men formed a circle, all facing outward, their weapons unsheathed, and took turns to keep watch, but no one noticed anything unusual except the occasional crackling of the fire in the middle and the sound of a horse's nose, and no one warned them.

In the morning, the robber sitting between He Sancai and Zheng Tai died, and he also lost his heart, and the two people next to him didn't know anything.

The two admitted that they fell asleep near dawn.

On this day, they traveled so fast that no one offered to rest, and everyone wanted to escape from the omnipresent hand behind them.

It was night again, and the deceased was a robber in the middle of the ranks, and Shangguan Ru turned around purely by chance, and saw a dark shadow passing by that was not much thicker than the night, and immediately issued a warning, so they found the deceased who had just been taken out of his heart.

The sky was slightly bright, and the blood of the deceased had clotted.

The person running behind the deceased was Shangguan Hong, he didn't see anything, like a frightened bird, he would be startled when he saw his shadow, and he couldn't say any clues.

There are still seven people left in the team, Gu Shenwei must stop to solve this problem, it will take eleven or twelve days to cross the Gobi, and if it continues like this, they will all die before they reach Shule Country.

"He has clear murderous characteristics, digging out his heart, and I want everyone to think about it, which number one person is this. ”

Gu Shen thought that he had never heard of a similar master, his gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and the three people of the Henu and Shangguan families immediately shook their heads, and He Sancai, the first sword of the Tianshan Mountain, thought about it and shook his head too.

In the end, everyone's eyes fell on Zheng Tai, who was the head snake of the sea, and should be more familiar with the characters in this area.

"There are no great masters in Xiaoyaohai, the land here is narrow and sparsely populated, and the people are poor, I really can't think of any demon who likes to dig out his heart and has such good skills. "Zheng Tai disappointed everyone, he himself was very upset, in fact, a little scared.

"It's a ghost, it must be a ghost, it never appears in the daytime, and it comes and goes without a trace, doesn't it?" Shangguan Fei shrank behind his sister, interjected abruptly, and then frightened himself first, and shrank down again.

Whether you believe it or not, everyone's faces are a little pale, and the person who started it is not only cruel, but also amazingly high in martial arts, and it is almost the same as a ghost.

Gu Shenwei knelt down on one leg again to examine the corpse carefully, then approached the deceased's mount, touched it back and forth, and finally got under the horse's belly.

"It's not a ghost, it's a human. Gu Shenwei said with certainty.

"Has the Dragon King found a clue?" Shangguan Hong's eyes lit up.

Gu Shenwei nodded, closed his eyes, simulated the killer's actions in his mind, and then opened his eyes and said: "He hid under the horse's belly, jumped up to it against the horse's body, and fled immediately after making a move, wearing a special black coat, the color was similar to the night before the wee hours." ”

"A big living person, hidden under the horse's belly, people and horses don't even feel it?" He Sancai said in surprise.

"So this person is very small and very light. Gu Shenwei continued to reason.

As soon as the Dragon King said this, everyone looked at He Sancai, He Sancai was a short man, no more than four feet tall, he was startled, and took a step back, "It's not me, I'm short, I'm not light at all, and besides, you all look at me, right? I can't be a doppelganger." If my martial arts were that good, I wouldn't be ......."

He didn't dare to say the latter words, if he had good martial arts, he would not be defeated by the Dragon King's sword in the desert south of Shuangquan Village, and he would not be forced to accept the Lotus Girl's Yin Finger and become her obedient subordinate.

"Hurry. Gu Shenwei was the first to get on the horse.

During the day, there was still nothing to do, and they kept going non-stop in the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, Gu Shenwei ordered them to rest.

This time there was no fire, Gu Shenwei knelt in the middle, and the other six people formed a circle, no one was allowed to sleep, and no one could sleep, all of them were vigilant, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

Shangguan Hong was the most nervous of them all, his teeth clattering, almost disturbing the minds of the others.

The night was dark, and he couldn't hold back any longer, and said, "I think this person chooses targets very regularly when he starts. ”

"What rule?" Shangguan Fei asked, although he hated this half-brother, he couldn't help but want to know some clues.

"Start with the weakest martial arts first, and then choose the stronger target one by one. ”

"What Hong Gongzi said has some truth. Sand Demon Zheng Tai said that the three robbers who had died were all his subordinates, and he had the most say in his skills.

"I think. Shangguan Hong swallowed hard, "I think his target tonight is me." ”

Shangguan Fei sat beside him, and when he heard this, he gave way to the side.

"Dragon King, you must protect me, I ...... And it's useful. Shangguan Hong pleaded in a trembling voice, pinning all his hopes on the Dragon King.

"Shut up. "Gu Shen needs to be quiet.

He held the dragon's head sword in his hand, ready to enter the realm of thoughtlessness and thoughtlessness, and use the sword technique of the "Book of the Dead" to solve the enemy.

This is an extremely risky move, and if he fails, he will be attacked like the Lotus Maiden, and may even lose his life.

But it was his only option.

During the day, all the words he said were made up on the fly, and in fact, he didn't see any clues at all, and only wanted to appease people.

Among the people, only the lotus girl knew that the dragon king was taking risks, so she clenched her sword with the word "huan" and was more vigilant than others.

Feeling the breath of life consumes internal breath and a lot of energy, Gu Shenwei waited for a while before closing his eyes.

The surrounding six groups of aura are clearly recognizable, and their cultivation is different, and the forms they present are also different.

The Lotus Maiden's aura is unpredictable, and it is difficult to grasp the specific shape, she is a first-class master.

To Gu Shenwei's slight surprise, the person who was one level worse than the lotus girl turned out to be Shangguan Fei, his aura was very strong, but compared to others, it was a little smaller, it was trying its best to be restrained, this was a timid master.

Shangguan Ru has been practicing the Daoless Divine Skill, and it stands to reason that the martial arts should be much higher than that of her brother, but her aura is the slowest among all people, her form is almost unchanged, and the loopholes are therefore the most obvious, and she has indeed given up her murderous intent.

He San is a famous bandit leader, and his martial arts are naturally not weak, and the aura he presents is rough and arrogant, but he is far from a real master.

The remaining two people are almost the same, judging from the breath, the weakest person in martial arts is not Shangguan Hong, but the sand demon Zheng Tai.

Other than that, there is no breath of living people around.

I don't know how long it has been, but when Gu Shenwei felt that he was about to lose his bearing, the mysterious and murderous killer appeared.

It was a faint aura, and strangely, it didn't coalesce into a ball, but a long one, twisted like a snake, making it even more difficult to detect.

It was circling around the circle, advancing and retreating, far and near.

Gu Shenwei restrained his mind and silently waited for the enemy to take the bait.

It was impossible for this assassin to feel the breath of life around him like Gu Shenwei, who had studied the Book of the Dead, but he must have found another way to detect danger, so he was extremely vigilant, approaching his target several times, as if he was about to attack, but then retreated in an instant.

Gu Shenwei has patience, but he can't keep thinking all the time.

The first to lose his breath was the Assassin.

The long strip of breath attacked, and suddenly, the shape suddenly shrank from a long strip to a small round ball.

Gu Shen is a sword.

A perfect sword, he didn't get backlashed, he stabbed the target, but it was not quite what he imagined.

The survivors stood up one after another, looking at the unbelievable scene with a stunned expression:

The dragon king's long sword pierced through the back of the sand demon Zheng Tai's heart, revealing a length of more than a foot, and a heart was inserted in the tip of the sword, which seemed to be still beating.

The lotus girl and Shangguan jumped out one after the other, tracking in different directions, and soon returned empty-handed.

Gu Shenwei put away the dragon head sword.

"Dragon King, Dragon King......" He Sancai's legs were weak, and he knelt down, his mind was confused, thinking that the Dragon King was going to kill.

"Look, there's blood!" Shangguan Hong shouted, pointing to the ground.

There were a few drops of blood on the gravel in front of Zheng Tai, connected in a string, pointing in the direction that the lotus girl was chasing just now.

Gu Shenwei still stabbed the enemy after all.

"He ran away. The lotus girl simply said the result, and she followed the bloodstain for nearly a hundred steps, the bloodstain disappeared, and the target was gone.

The other ran away as well. Shangguan Ru was holding a wooden knife in his hand, but there was no trace of fright on his face, "It's a wild horse, I saw him." ”
