The visitor's steps were steady and powerful, definitely not an ordinary person.
What's more important is that the footsteps are approaching in the direction of the small courtyard.
He suddenly tightened his grip on the sword hilt, dwarfed his body, and moved towards the courtyard door against the door frame.
He didn't dare to look around.
Over the past few days, he had already figured out the topography of this old warehouse. There was a dead alley outside the courtyard gate, with high walls on both sides, and there was no other way out.
If anyone comes, it must be for them.
He held his breath and slowly drew out the sword three inches.
The footsteps stopped outside the courtyard gate.
Lin Feng's heart was in his throat.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. What should he do if the man in gray robe really came looking for him?
With his level of cultivation, he had no chance of winning when facing those gray-robed men head-on.
But he couldn't retreat. There were dozens of lives in the cellar, and if he took one step back, he would be doomed.
He gritted his teeth and drew the sword completely.
The courtyard door was pushed gently from the outside.
The door is ajar and opens when pushed.
A black figure stepped in, very fast, almost flying in the shadow.
Lin Feng didn't hesitate.
He burst into action and thrust his sword straight into the throat of the intruder.
This sword used all his cultivation, Late Dark Force's strength was poured into the sword body, the tip of the sword made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and went straight to the vital point.
He wanted to kill him with one strike without giving the other party any room to react.
However, the tip of his sword reached halfway and could no longer be handed out.
The person who came just turned sideways, stretched out two fingers lightly, and clamped the sword blade with great precision.
Lin Feng felt an unreasonable force coming down the sword.
His entire right arm went numb suddenly, his fingers loosened involuntarily, and the sword fell out of his hand and was caught between the man's fingers.
Immediately afterwards, the man's left hand was already on his shoulder.
Lin Feng was pushed so hard that he staggered back, and his back hit the door frame hard.
"It's me."
A familiar voice sounded in the darkness.
Lin Feng looked up suddenly.
The moonlight leaked through the cracks in the courtyard wall and shone on that young face.
"Jiang...Junior Brother Jiang?"
Lin Feng opened his mouth, with a hint of disbelief on his face.
"It's me."
"Junior Brother Jiang! I thought you had..."
At this point, he was already a little speechless.
Looking at this familiar face in front of him, Lin Feng was immediately excited.
He staggered forward two steps and grabbed Jiang Fa's arm.
Jiang Fa held Lin Feng's arm with his backhand and asked in a low voice, "Brother, where are my parents?"
"They're all in there."
Lin Feng's voice trembled slightly, as if a string that had been stretched for a long time was finally loosened.
He took Jiang Fa's arm and walked inside,
A very dim oil lamp was lit in the innermost room of the shop, barely illuminating the small room, which was only about ten feet square.
The flame of the lamp is like a bean, and the dim yellow halo casts swaying shadows on the wall.
The room was not big, and there were more than a dozen people crammed in, sitting or standing, all of them looking tired and panicked.
Seeing the person behind Lin Feng, a disciple from the inner courtyard of the martial arts school suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face.
"It's Senior Brother Jiang."
"Senior Brother Jiang is back!"
"Senior Brother Jiang It's okay!"
Jiang Fa briefly greeted them, then looked past them and landed on the innermost corner of the room.
Under the dim light, Jiang Dashan was sitting against the wall, and Lady Chen was sitting next to him, with Jiang Xiaohe in his arms.
Lady Chen raised his head, and the moment he saw Jiang Fa, tears welled up.
"Fa..."
Her voice trembled a little.
"Mother!"
Jiang Fa walked forward quickly, squatted down, and held his mother's cold hand.
Lady Chen couldn't bear it anymore and cried with joy.
All the fears and worries accumulated over the past few days poured out at this moment.
"My mother thought you... my mother thought you..."
She was so choked up that she couldn't speak complete words.
Jiang Xiaohe poked his head out of his mother's arms and saw his brother. His mouth tightened and tears fell down.
"Brother! Where have you been? They all said you were gone. I'm so scared..."
Jiang Fa Looking at the appearance of his family, his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't say anything.
Jiang Dashan sat nearby, watching this scene, his eyes were very red.
Jiang Fa looked up at his father and said worriedly, "Dad, are you okay?"
Jiang Dashan comforted, "It's okay, we are all okay..."
Jiang Fa I was really relieved when I saw that a few people were just a little pale, but others were fine.
He then looked at Lin Feng and asked, "Senior Brother Lin, what happened these days?"
Lin Feng sighed and explained, "After you entered the mine that night, Shi Chongshan went crazy and wanted to chase you in. Master and Hall Master Lie tried their best to stop him."
"But at this moment, a large number of people from various forces suddenly arrived outside the mountain. Once there were more people, the situation became completely chaotic."
"Master and Hall Master Lie have never seen you. They wanted to evacuate first, but before they had gone far, a beast roar suddenly came from deep in the mine."
"That was a crazy Third Tier Fire-Patterned Python. As soon as he appeared, he launched an indiscriminate attack on everyone. All major forces suffered heavy losses for a while. Seeing that the situation was not good, Master and Hall Master Lie decisively withdrew, and they happened to meet us halfway."
He took a deep breath and continued, "But just when we were about to evacuate Black Wind Ridge, several mysterious masters in gray robes appeared out of nowhere, and they attacked us without saying a word."
Jiang Fa frowned and asked, "Then what?"
"Those men in gray robes have extremely high cultivation, and they are all Transforming Force level experts. Master and Hall Master Lie fight to the death, and let us retreat first with others."
Lin Feng Speaking of this, a look of joy and fear appeared in his eyes. "Fortunately, people from all major forces were running around everywhere at that time, which distracted a lot of the attention of the gray-robed men. Master and the others finally found a chance to escape in the chaos."
Jiang Fa frowned slightly. "Where is the master now? Why did the martial arts school become like this?"
"After we escaped back to the county town, we thought we could take a breather, but early the next morning, things changed in the city."
Lin Feng sighed and continued, "Suddenly many strange faces appeared at the city gate. They were patrolling on the city wall and at various intersections on the streets. Anyone who looked like a warrior was taken away by them for questioning."
"Master noticed something was wrong, and took everyone in the martial arts school that night to prepare to evacuate. But before he could leave, those men in gray robes came to the door."
His voice was hoarse, and he paused for a moment before continuing, "Master asked us to leave first. He took the senior brother and several inner courtyard disciples to break up the rear, but the group of gray-robed men killed them as soon as they came up. Several junior brothers didn't even have a chance to resist, so they slapped them to death."
"Master tried his best to hold back those gray-robed men. Senior brother protected us and fought and retreated. When I led the people to withdraw from the back door, the martial arts hall had been occupied by them. Master and senior brother... were also captured by those gray-robed men."
He glanced at the few brothers behind him who had managed to escape, and said with lingering fear, "If Master and the others hadn't fought tooth and nail to cover them, I'm afraid even the rest of us wouldn't have survived."
Jiang Fa listened silently, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Lin Feng continued, "After escaping, I took the remaining people and hid around, and finally found this old warehouse. I couldn't worry about it afterwards, so I took Uncle Jiang and the others here."
Jiang Fa was silent for a moment, suppressing the surging emotions.
