Looking for plums under the moon

"Sure enough, they entered the mountain." The road was blocked by heavy snow, making it difficult for people to tell the direction. Ling Guyue looked down at Xiaochou and asked, "Where did they go?"

Xiao Qiu carefully searched for the faint smell of blood in the air. He didn't dare to tell his brother that Shen Luo might be seriously injured, so he just stretched out his finger and whispered, "It's still ahead..."

The two were about to walk into the mountain, but there was a sound of footsteps behind them.

"Uncle, we are here!" Qingzhu followed with several disciples.

"Okay." Ling Guyue nodded, without stopping.

Half an hour later, under the guidance of Xiao Qiu, the group arrived at the foot of a barren mountain.

I saw the empty mountain is silent, with jagged rocks, not to mention human figures, and I have never seen half a wild bird.

But in such a remote place, a string of messy footprints appeared under everyone's feet, and the slush turned, which looked very clear, as if someone had just passed by not long ago.

"Who would come to such a place in such a cold day..." Qingzhu walked forward a few steps suspiciously, and stopped just as he rounded a boulder.He stared straight ahead, and said to Ling Guyue: "Master, there is a cave..."

Ling Guyue's gaze changed, and she walked up to him, only to see that there was indeed a cave not far away, the entrance of the cave was hidden, almost half buried by withered grass.

"It seems to be here..." Xiao Qiu said.

Ling Guyue clenched her fists and was about to go in, but just before reaching the cave, her sleeves were grabbed by Xiao Qiu.

"how?"

Xiao Qiu looked at the dark hole, hesitating a bit, inside... there was a very strong smell of blood.

However, needless to say, Ling Guyue also quickly discovered the abnormality. On the left side of the cave entrance, he saw a dark red bloody handprint, a drop of blood attached to the stone that was about to fall, and had already condensed into ice.

"Could it be..." Looking at the bloodstain, Qing Zhu's throat tightened, a coldness flashed in his eyes, and he looked into the cave.

Ling Guyue didn't say a word, pinched her fingertips to force herself to calm down, and walked deeper.

The inside of the cave was dark, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground at the end, and it looked like a person was lying in the pool of blood.

"Senior brother..." Xiao Qiu glanced at Ling Guyue anxiously, and squeezed his hand tightly.

Ling Guyue didn't seem to notice anything, but still walked forward.

There was indeed a man on the ground, he was motionless, facing in, almost blending with the light in the cave.

The man was dressed in black.

No one knows why Shen Luo prefers black, except himself.After understanding his thoughts on his senior brother, he stayed alone in the secret room of Pingyi Peak for a long time without lighting the lamp, and wrote down his feelings in front of Ling Guyue's items in the dark, expressing his joy and anger. Hidden under the depths.

Black is the color that most resembles the night, it is good for camouflage, and more importantly, you can see the bright moon when you look up.

Ling Guyue stopped suddenly, he was sure that the people on the ground were not breathing.

Xiao Qiu's face turned pale, "Brother Shen..."

The disciple behind him also changed color, and shouted in disbelief: "Master!"

Ling Guyue looked calm, shook her head and said: "It's not him."

His tone was very firm, which made people inexplicably convincing.

Ling Guyue repeated again, "It's not him."

"Then who is he?" Xiao Qiu let go of Ling Guyue's hand, and tiptoed gently to that person.

I don't know if it's because the cave is too dark, and I can't see his appearance clearly, so Xiao Chou moves closer.Unexpectedly, the moment he saw that face, Xiao Qiu's eyes widened, he screamed, and stepped back.

"Brother Xiaoqiu, what's the matter?" Qing Zhu noticed his pale face, and hurried forward, but when his eyes fell on that face, he couldn't help being stunned.Then he looked at Ling Guyue and turned the man over.

Seeing their weird expressions, Ling Guyue suddenly didn't dare to look at the corpse.Although he firmly believed that nothing happened to Shen Luo, but at this moment, facing this man who was also dressed in black, he was a little at a loss.

What if?

In case he really sinks...

In case Shen Luo really died...

Ling Guyue's heartbeat suddenly beat faster, her eyelashes fluttered like butterfly feathers.

Everyone only said that he was extraordinarily calm today, but no one knew how nervous he was, as if the three mountains and five lakes were all on his heart, extremely dull, but he couldn't show it.

Sighing, she thought to herself: what should come will always come, Ling Guyue finally raised her eyes——with just one glance, he was stunned.

That face could no longer be called a human face, it was hideous and frightening, with residual foam splashing, not a single place was not bloody, and it was almost impossible to see the traces of the five sense organs.The eyes disappeared, leaving only two black eye sockets, the nose was cut off from the root of the mountain, and the mouth was more infiltrating——

The attacker seemed to hate this part very much. The corners of the mouth began to tear from the base of the ear, the whole piece of flesh was peeled off, the mandible was exposed, and the gums were thick, but there was no tooth on it, and it was full of black and purple blood clots...

Qingzhu bent down to look at his hands, only to see that his hands were bent into a hook shape, extremely stiff and unable to be stretched, the nails on ten fingers had been pulled out by the roots, revealing cracked soft flesh.

Qingzhu frowned and took a closer look at him, suddenly found something, turned to be happy, said to Ling Guyue: "Master, he is not the head of the sect! This is not the clothes of the head!"

It turned out that the man was not wearing black clothes, but was stained crimson by the black blood. In the dark cave, he looked black at first glance.

Seeing such a miserable state, Xiao Qiu covered his mouth and nose and said, "That's great, he's not Big Brother Shen! But who is he?"

Ling Guyue said: "He is Liu Feimo."

In fact, if Ling Guyue had to rely on his face to recognize him, he would not be able to tell who this person was, but this kind of killing method reminded him of the old man Jingshan and the dead Ji brothers...

The person must have been killed by Shen Luo, and the one who died could only be Liu Feimo.

Thinking of this, Ling Guyue suddenly had a bad premonition, since Liu Feimo was dead, why didn't Shen Luo go back?

He turned to Xiao Qiu and said, "Xiao Qiu, you can find out where he is now."

Xiao Qiu nodded, closed his eyes and began to sniff.

When he opened his eyes, Xiao Qiu looked outside the cave, "Brother Shen has gone out..."

After leaving the cave, several people searched for it up the mountain.

Ling Guyue found out that the footprints in front of the cave just now stretched all the way here, and she felt a little more at ease, thinking that this should be left by her junior.

Following the footprints, he soon found a figure in the forest halfway up the mountain.

But it wasn't Shen Luo, it was a woodcutter carrying a bamboo basket, picking up firewood in the snow, when he turned around and saw Ling Guyue and others, he stopped what he was doing and shouted, "Hey, what do you do? "

Qingzhu said loudly: "We are here to find someone, I dare to ask the old man if he has seen one..."

Before he finished speaking, the woodcutter interrupted him and said, "Who are you looking for in this deep mountain? Go back quickly, it's cold in the mountain, you don't get typhoid if you wear such thin clothes."

"Thank you, old man..."

Ling Guyue was disappointed for a while, looking at the way ahead, she still led the crowd towards the mountain.

"Huh? Are you still leaving?" The woodcutter was a little surprised.

"If we don't find someone, we won't go back."

The woodcutter sighed, leaned on the tree trunk and said, "I came to the mountain early in the morning, and if I had seen anyone, I would have seen someone, but it was definitely not the one you were looking for, you still..."

Hearing this, Ling Guyue quickly asked, "What does he look like? Where is he now?"

The woodcutter took a look at him and saw that the people behind him were all holding swords, so he knew that they were not simple, so he coughed and said, "That man is a lunatic..."

"Crazy?" Qingzhu's face was covered with doubts.

"Isn't it?" The woodcutter pointed to the mountain behind him, "I've been digging on the top of the mountain for a long time, I thought it was a grave digger, and I was trying to scare him, but I saw that he was covered in blood and his eyes were full of blood. Vicious, muttering in his mouth, he looks like a lunatic! Hey, be careful, if you go crazy, you will be in trouble..."

The voice gradually faded away in the ear, Ling Guyue walked on the wind, and in the blink of an eye, the person appeared ten feet away, and rushed towards the place pointed by the woodcutter.

Qingzhu hurriedly brought up Xiaoqiu and followed closely.

The woodcutter felt a blur in front of his eyes, and before he finished speaking, a group of people flew to the top of the mountain and disappeared among the plain white mountains.

It was snowing all over the sky, and a person huddled together in the wind, digging the soil on the ground with his bare hands.Although his hands were no longer flexible in the ice and snow, and were scratched by sharp stones and covered with scars, he still dug his way, muttering: "Senior Brother..."

Behind him, sand, gravel and soil have been piled up into a small hill.

Ling Guyue stared at this scene fixedly, then Qing Zhu who arrived after that couldn't wait to rush to the man, and shouted happily: "Master!"

Shen Luo ignored him, pushed him away and continued digging.

Qingzhu looked at him puzzled, "Master?"

Shen Luo gave him a cold look, "Don't court death..."

That glance was extremely indifferent.

Qingzhu suddenly felt startled, seeing him buried his head in digging again, thought he was looking for something important, and asked cautiously: "Master, what are you looking for? Qingzhu will help you..."

Shen Luo remained silent.

Qingzhu gritted her teeth, grabbed his wrist, and said worriedly: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Luo's face was full of displeasure, but he couldn't pull his hand away, so he elbowed him, "Let me go! Who are you?"

"The head...doesn't recognize me?" Qingzhu looked at him in shock.

The rest of the disciples also gathered together and shouted, "Master..."

"Who are you? Why didn't you let me find my senior brother!" Shen Luo shouted in a rough voice, his eyes just staring at the pit, his eye sockets turned red with anxiety, as if he was about to cry.

"Master, I am Qingzhu..."

Shen Luo frowned and said, "I don't know you!"

"What about us? Don't you remember even the head?"

Shen Luo looked at the group of teenagers and shook his head.

Qing Zhu bitterly said: "Master Master, Master Ling is right behind you..."

Unexpectedly, when Shen Luo heard the words, he said viciously: "Brother is dead, he is buried here, I want to find him!" As he spoke, he forcibly broke free from Qingzhu's hand, and continued to dig with red eyes.

"Find him, then what?" Ling Guyue walked towards him.

"Lie down with him." Shen Luo didn't look back, digging on his own.

Ling Guyue walked up to him, held his hand, and said softly: "Shen Luo, who am I?"

Shen Luo thought that someone was going to stop him, so he raised his head fiercely, but was stunned the moment he saw him.

Ling Guyue had a faint expectation in her eyes, "You won't even remember me, will you?"

"Brother!"

The next moment, Ling Guyue was thrown to the ground by him, and the two hugged tightly and rolled in the snow several times. Thinking that there was someone beside her, Ling Guyue hurriedly supported the ground with her hands, and locked him under her body , which stopped.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Senior brother is dead..."

The two looked at each other and asked almost at the same time,

Ling Guyue only felt that he was a little strange. He hadn't seen this kind of undisguised grievance and worry in Shen Luo's body for many years. It was like...back when he was a teenager?
