Chapter 1211 Leaving the Village

"Then you can stay with us!" The one-eyed man looked at Lu Chen and sneered, holding a big knife and yelling angrily.

As the leader of the cottage, the one-eyed man was naturally good at martial arts. His muscular figure suddenly jumped up, and the sword gleamed with cold light as he slashed towards Lu Chen.

Xu Qinghong exclaimed, hiding behind Lu Chen, her head buried under her neck, as if she couldn't bear to see this scene.

But at this time, Lu Chen was motionless, his expression remained calm, looking at the approaching sword in front of him.

"Boy, if you want to die, I can't blame you, Mr. Ma." The one-eyed man shouted coldly and cut off the sword.

At this critical moment, the scroll in Lu Chen's hand suddenly burst out with a white light.

This light was extremely dazzling, as if it lit up the night instantly, but it also disappeared very quickly. In just a breath, the white light dissipated as if it had never appeared before.

Dissipated together were the body of the one-eyed man and the ghost-headed sword in his hand.

All this happened very quickly, as if it was already over before it started. Xu Qinghong still didn't raise her head, and the battle between the two was already over.

At this moment, other people in the village gradually came to their senses, and the horror on their faces was unmistakable.

"He...he is an immortal!"

"Hurry...come with me to see the immortal..."

There was a moment of restlessness in the village. Those who had been frightened by Lu Chen's momentum before, but now the death of the owner of the village has brought a great shock to their hearts.

Not far in front of Lu Chen, the bandits in the village knelt down and kept kneeling to Lu Chen.

This sudden restlessness was also noticed by Xu Qinghong who was hiding behind Lu Chen. She carefully raised her head and looked at the scene in front of her. A hint of excitement flashed through her moving eyes.

"Yes, we are immortals. You mortals, if you haven't brought us all the good wine and food, I am a little hungry!" Xu Qinghong seemed to be no longer afraid, and walked forward with her hands on her waist, pointing to the kneeling person in front of her. The bandit spoke loudly.

"Yes... yes, please invite Fairy Lady inside. We will treat you well." Among the kneeling bandits, a slightly older man quickly stood up and said with a smile.

This man had been in the village for several years, and because his martial arts skills were not as good as that of the one-eyed man, he was always suppressed by 10%.

Now that the one-eyed man is dead, the position of the leader of the village has naturally fallen on his head. He is very grateful to Lu Chen and others.

Xu Qinghong had a smile on her face and glanced at the kneeling people in front of her, seeming to enjoy this feeling.

"How about it, little scholar, you know how powerful this girl is. Let's stay here for one night and let these people take us to the imperial capital tomorrow." Xu Qinghong turned around and looked at Lu Chen with a smile.

Lu Chen smiled lightly, then shook his head helplessly, and then said: "I will leave tonight, you can stay here, and let them take you to the Imperial Capital tomorrow."

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he said no more, turned around and walked away alone, facing the dark night.

Xu Qinghong's face was startled, looking at Lu Chen's back in the distance, she couldn't help but stamp her feet angrily.

How dare she stay alone in this bandit's den? She just thought for a moment, then ignored the people behind her and hurriedly chased in the direction Lu Chen left.

...

Under the cover of night, Lu Chen walked slowly towards the official road along the path he came from. Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.

It was Xu Qinghong who came up. She walked up to Lu Chen, glared at him, said nothing more, and followed quietly again.

Lu Chen smiled slightly and glanced at the person next to him, his steps did not stop.

The two of them walked about half a stick of incense, and in a clearing among the trees, Lu Chen finally stopped.

"Why don't you leave?" Xu Qinghong also stopped, with a look of confusion on her face, and couldn't help but ask.

Lu Chen glanced around, and with the faint moonlight, he could see clearly that they were in a small mountain range at the moment, probably still a long way from the official road.

"It's late at night, and it's easy to lose your way. Let's wait until dawn and hurry up." Lu Chen said in a low voice, and then found a bluestone and sat down.

With his back against the bluestone, Lu Chen closed his eyes slightly. He didn't pay much attention to Xu Qinghong, but just closed his eyes to rest.

Xu Qinghong curled her lips. She looked at the young man in front of her. After thinking for a moment, she walked to Lu Chen. For some reason, this strange young man always gave her a sense of reliability.

The night is getting deeper and the wind is slightly cooler...

Xu Qinghong leaned against the bluestone and couldn't help curling up. She was fine in the dungeon, but now she was in the wilderness, making it difficult for her to sleep.

"G..Gulu." Xu Qinghong's pretty face turned red. She hadn't eaten for a long time. Now that she had escaped from the bandits' den, all the hunger in her stomach suddenly surged up.

Lu Chen chuckled at the corner of his mouth, suddenly slowly opened his eyes, and turned to look at Xu Qinghong beside him.

"What are you looking at? I'm hungry, can't I!" Xu Qinghong glared at Lu Chen angrily and said with a snort.

Lu Chen smiled slightly, then stood up, looked at Xu Qinghong and said, "Wait here, don't run around..."

After finishing speaking, Lu Chen turned around and walked towards the depths of the jungle. Not long after, his body

The shape blends into the night.

"Hey, wait..." Before Xu Qinghong could say anything, Lu Chen's figure in front of her had already disappeared from her sight.

The surroundings were dark, and Xu Qinghong couldn't help but feel panic in her heart. She pressed tightly against the bluestone, curling up and not daring to move in place.

I don’t know how long it took, but a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in the darkness, followed by the sound of footsteps slowly coming.

Xu Qinghong's whole body trembled, and her breathing became much faster. Her moving eyes were wide open at this moment, and she looked warily at the movements around her.

The red lights in front slowly approached, and a dark figure was vaguely reflected, approaching step by step while thinking about the bluestone.

"Who...is it? Lu Chen, is that you?" Xu Qinghong couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, and the panic in her heart was even stronger at this moment.

She clearly remembered that when Chase Lu just left, there was no torch in his hand. The person who was approaching at this time was obviously holding a fire stick in his hand.

In this wilderness, she felt extremely regretful at this moment. She should have been with Lu Chen just now, but now she was here alone. If those bandits were unwilling to pursue her, she would probably die here.
