Hidden Blade

Xu Han and Liu Sheng brought along a dagger that had been distributed, and then they were led to an entrance of the dense forest.

It was an extremely strange dense forest.

Although it was almost midnight, the moonlight in the sky was dim, but the forest was extremely dark. With Xu Han and his eyesight, it was difficult to see the scene clearly.

Furthermore, whether it was an illusion or not, the two of them could faintly smell a faint smell of blood floating in the air.

Since the two of them were able to stand out from the dark room, there was naturally something extraordinary about them.

But in the end, he was only eleven or twelve years old.

Suddenly coming to such a place, they couldn't help but panic in their hearts. At that time, the two of them exchanged glances and saw deep unease in each other's eyes.

"What should we do?" After a long period of silence, Liu Sheng turned around and asked, his voice somewhat dry.

Xu Han shook his head. He had never heard of such a spatial teleportation spell before. Now that he had suddenly experienced it, his mind was in turmoil, and he was unable to control himself for a moment.

"Do you know what those demon corpses are?" Xu Han thought for a moment and asked.

"It's probably some demonic demonic creatures." Liu Sheng turned his head to look at the pitch-black forest and responded calmly.

This answer stunned Xu Han. He originally asked casually, but he didn't want to hear what Liu Sheng said, as if the other party really knew something.

At this moment, Liu Sheng regained his senses. He could feel Xu Han's puzzled gaze. But these past few days, He smiled and said, "My father once told me that in ancient times, the demons ruled this world, but for some reason, they were expelled to the southern boundary of Kunlun. Although there are also demons in this world, it is far inferior to the ancient times." "And some of them refined the demonic energy in the demon race's body and refined it into demonic pills. That's what they mixed with the food to make us eat back then. Some of them were unable to resist the erosion of the demonic energy and turned into demonic corpses that only chased after flesh and blood. We were lucky to survive."

At this point, a bitter smile appeared on Liu Sheng 's face. "It can also be considered a blessing in disguise. I believe you can also feel that after absorbing the demonic energy, our bodies are much better than before. I think this is their method of training killers. It is quick and effective. Of course, it is also bloody and cruel."

Hearing this, Xu Han felt a burst of shock in his heart, and he was even more worried about his current situation.

"Roar!"

Just as he was hesitating to say something else, a wild beast-like roar suddenly sounded out from the dense forest.

"Be careful!" Liu Sheng immediately became alert. He shouted loudly at Xu Han and subconsciously pushed Xu Han away with one hand. He was also a carp that rolled away from the spot.

At this moment, Xu Han was still in a daze. A black shadow flew out of the dense forest at an extremely fast speed and directly pounced towards where Xu Han and Liu Sheng had just stood.

Xu Han, who was lying on the ground, was still in a state of shock. Then, he saw the appearance of the black figure that had suddenly rushed out in the moonlight.

It was a boy who looked very much the same age as them, However, his eyes were pitch-black without the slightest trace of whiteness. The clothes on his upper body were already tattered, and his exposed body was covered in rotting flesh wounds. However, he seemed to have not noticed this. After missing a single blow, he let out another furious roar and charged towards Xu Han without stopping.

Xu Han, who had been a beggar for twelve years, had seen such a scene before?

He was so frightened that he was at a loss. He subconsciously grabbed the dagger in his hand and stabbed it towards the demon corpse.

However, that demon corpse had obviously survived in this dense forest for a long time, and it had incomparably rich combat experience. How could a novice like Xu Han be injured?

At that time, his hand, which was already as sharp as a wild beast's fingernail, slapped out abruptly, and Xu Han's dagger was sent flying by him like this.

Afterwards, he rushed towards Xu Han again. At this time, Xu Han no longer had the strength to resist. He could only watch helplessly as the demon corpse charged towards him, and his mind went blank.

"Bastard!" At this critical moment. Liu Sheng shouted from the side. Without thinking, he rushed forward and jumped high. The dagger in his hand fiercely stabbed at the exposed back of the demon corpse.

Roar! ! !

The dagger stabbed out, causing the demon corpse to have no choice but to temporarily put down Xu Han, who was already in his bag. He suddenly turned around, and with another claw, he fiercely sent Liu Sheng flying.

Liu Sheng 's body flew 30 feet away from the demon corpse and stopped on the ground in a sorry state. However, as he tumbled, streaks of messy bloodstains appeared on his body.

Roar! ! !

The wound on his back did not injure the demon corpse seriously. Instead, it aroused his fierceness. He raised his head and roared angrily. He turned his head to look at Liu Sheng , who could not stand up, and walked towards him with heavy steps.

Evidently, Liu Sheng 's sneak attack had completely angered the demon corpse.

Liu Sheng struggled to stand up, but the dagger had already pierced into the back of the demon corpse. At this moment, he no longer had any chips in his hand that could resist the demon corpse.

Facing the demon corpses that were pressing down step by step, he could only retreat cautiously in order to maintain a relatively safe distance from them.

However, the demon corpse did not have enough patience to play this kind of hide-and-seek trick.

His body suddenly bent down and landed on the ground like a wild beast. He let out muffled roars before Liu Sheng could react.

His body suddenly rushed out and charged straight at Liu Sheng like an arrow from the bowstring.

His speed was really too fast.

Even though Liu Sheng had already reacted immediately and slapped the ground with both hands, wanting to flee, he was still hit by the demon corpse and fell to the ground with a stumble.

This time, the demon corpse obviously didn't want to give Liu Sheng any more chances. He stood up and pressed Liu Sheng's body firmly onto the ground.

Black light flashed in his pitch-black eyes. He opened his mouth wide, revealing fangs that were so sharp that they did not resemble human-shaped fangs.

As he looked up, he was about to bite down on Liu Sheng 's face and swallow it alive.

But at this moment, Xu Han finally regained his senses from his previous shock. He didn't have time to think too much, or even to be afraid. He grabbed the dagger that was sent flying beside him, and quickly rushed forward.

Before the fangs of the demon corpse landed on Liu Sheng 's face, he used all of his strength to ruthlessly insert the dagger into the head of the demon corpse.

Purple-black blood sprayed out from the demon corpse's head at that time, staining Xu Han's face.

The expression on Xu Han's face was ferocious, reflecting the moonlight. He looked as gloomy as an Asura.

The body of the demon corpse spat out purple blood like a puppet without a string. The black light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and a long cry of pain came from his mouth. Then, he suddenly collapsed.

Hu!

Hu!

Xu Han fell to the ground, panting heavily, his expression complicated.

Liu Sheng also recovered from the ups and downs of the rest of his life. He pushed away the demon corpse on his body with difficulty, then dragged his wounded body to the side of the demon corpse and reached out to pull out the dagger that belonged to him.

At that time, a ruthless expression flashed in his eyes. Then, he suddenly reached out and lifted the head of the demon corpse. He gritted his teeth and cut it off from his body.

After doing all this, he walked over to Xu Han and handed the horrible head of the demon corpse to Xu Han.

"You killed him. He's yours." Liu Sheng said in a low voice that was like a ghost whispering.

Xu Han waved his hand, as if he still had lingering fears about what had happened before.

"If you hadn't saved me in time, I would have died a long time ago. He's yours." Xu Han glanced at Liu Sheng and shook his head.

Hearing this, Liu Sheng lowered his head silently. He looked at the ugly head in his hand and pondered for a long time. Then, he seemed to have thought of something. Finally, he nodded. Then, he withdrew his hand and hung the head on his waist. Then, like Xu Han, he lifted his head and fell beside him, staring at the stars in the sky, dazed.

…

"Five years. If we can live for more than five years, what do you want to do?"

The two youths looked at the night sky like this for a long time. Finally, Liu Sheng broke the silence.

"Huh?" This question surprised Xu Han. He was slightly stunned. His eyes that looked at the night sky reflected the starlight on the sky, incomparably brilliant.

At that moment, the corners of his mouth curved into a genuine smile.

He said, "If I can live to that point, I want to find her." free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

"She?" Liu Sheng was stunned, but he quickly regained his senses. The two of them had already talked about everything in the past few months, so he naturally knew that the girl Xu Han was talking about was the girl who was sold by his mother.

"You like her?" Liu Sheng asked, a rare look of ridicule appearing on his face.

But his tricks did not make Xu Han feel shy at all. Xu Han shook his head and said very seriously, "It was half of her steamed buns that allowed me to live until now. If I could live for another five years, I would like to find her and see how she is doing."

"Then what if she is already married? What will you do?" Liu Sheng obviously did not believe Xu Han's words. In his opinion, if he did not like it, how could he not forget it?

"So what? She's fine enough." Xu Han, however, did not take it seriously. However, he paused at that time and looked at Liu Sheng again, asking, "What about you? What do you want to do in five years? Go find your younger brothers and sisters?"

Just as Liu Sheng knew that Xu Han was a beggar, Xu Han also knew that Liu Sheng had a younger brother and younger sister who were lost in the chaos of war. Liu Sheng never forgot about them.

"Yes." This topic was obviously a bit heavy for Liu Sheng . His face, which was still laughing, suddenly sank. He nodded and replied with a lonely expression.

Xu Han knew that he had made a mistake. He hurriedly sat up and patted Liu Sheng 's shoulder. "Don't worry, your younger brother and sister will be fine. We'll go find them together in five years!" He said.

Liu Sheng was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Xu Han and saw that his expression was extremely serious. His heart warmed up and he nodded heavily at that time, "Alright! When that time comes, I will accompany you to snatch that girl back. Whether she marries or not, she will have to be my younger brother's wife."

"Alright! When the time comes, we'll snatch her over together!" Xu Han nodded in response.

After saying that, the two youths exchanged glances and smiled.

At that time, the dense forest filled with killing intent seemed to have become less terrifying.
