The sky over the rivers and lakes is very clear

Chapter 92

Although they were enemies, not friends, Zhu Huihui still felt a pang of sadness and shed tears: "Alright! Don't worry, I'll go deliver the message!"

The corpses of the men in black found in the forest were actually killed by the Twelve Zodiac Envoys! Judging from the scene in the forest, they had fought a bloody battle with those men in black, showing no fear even in the face of death. Based on this alone, she would never again consider these twelve people villains!

Serpent Envoy, I will deliver the information you entrusted to me, and I will also visit your child and relay your message to her. If I fail to do so, all twelve of you may come back tonight and strangle me!

Zhu Huihui raised her sleeve, wiped the tears from her face, and took the earring from the snake's only remaining right ear as a keepsake. Then she put the snake's body back into the pit and gently covered it with soil.

The Serpent Envoy didn't say who the message was to be delivered to, but in Zhu Huihui's heart, there was only that slightly cold face and those warm eyes—he was the only person she trusted in this martial world!

Hero! I need to find the hero! Hurry!

Hua Hua hummed twice, rubbed her head against her leg, and followed her up.

The light in the dilapidated house by the cemetery suddenly went out.

The lights were off in the dilapidated house next to the cemetery.

But the light in the forest increased, and the flickering firelight drifted and flowed in the dark night, moving east and west like countless fireflies, adorning the dark forest with a dazzling beauty.

There was no sound left in the world.

The world was still, as if even time had stood still.

The only moving things were the flickering flames.

There was another heart moving at breakneck speed—Zhu Huihui's heart, which was plummeting downwards at breakneck speed!

Her heart sank! Even if she was completely ignorant, she knew these couldn't be ordinary fireflies—if they were insects, that would be better! She had never been afraid of any insect in her life!

Similarly, throughout her life, anyone whose martial arts skills surpassed hers was afraid of her!

The latter was clearly lurking in the woods.

It's just that we don't know if it's one, two, or many—but it doesn't really matter. For Zhu Huihui, one would be enough to kill her. If there are many, the only difference is who will chop off her head.

On one side is a desolate graveyard, where there might be ghosts, zombies, and wild dogs and wolves that feed on corpses; on the other side is a wild forest, where there will definitely be bad people, evil people, and people who will chop off heads with knives.

Bad people and villains will only cut off her head; but ghosts, zombies, wild dogs, and wolves bite indiscriminately, and don't just covet her...

So, after thinking for a moment, Zhu Huihui immediately decided to break out of the mass grave!

The sky was dark, the starlight was dim, and occasionally a shooting star would streak across the sky, leaving a silvery trail that would disappear in an instant.

On the cemetery, graves stood side by side, many old ones with large holes, their coffins exposed, the coffin boards rotten, and pale bones scattered about, gleaming bluishly in the starlight. Some newer graves had mourning sticks stuck in front of them, with strings of paper money hanging from them, rustling loudly in the eerie wind, creating an atmosphere of boundless desolation amidst the terror.

As the air stirred up by footsteps, eerie will-o'-the-wisps chased after the crimson ash, sometimes gathering, sometimes dispersing. Wild grass swayed, and every now and then a dark shadow would flit among the graves, followed by strange, eerie sounds from some unknown source.

Zhu Huihui felt a chill run down her neck, goosebumps rose on her skin, and she felt uneasy, muttering to herself:

"Everyone, everyone, I've been chased by bad guys today and have no choice but to ask for your passage! Please don't bite me, I don't like to bathe and eating this will give me an upset stomach. The guys behind me are strong and muscular, and their fat and lean meat taste good..."

She walked cautiously through the graves, feeling as if she were stepping on something deep or shallow. She couldn't tell if the hard part was a coffin, bones, or soil, or if the soft part was weeds, corpses, or fresh soil. Her heart was in her throat, fearing that some ghost might suddenly appear, or that a pair of withered hands covered in rotting flesh and sticky threads would reach out from some grave mound and drag her in.

The cemetery was too big, and Zhu Huihui didn't know the way. After walking for a long time, it seemed like she couldn't find her way out. Just as she was wondering if she had encountered a ghost wall, she suddenly felt something following her from behind.

A chill ran down her spine. With a "whoosh," she leaped over the two grave mounds and took off running. But the thing seemed to be faster than her; she could even feel the wind it created. Terrified, she ran even faster.

Zhu Huihui hadn't even had a chance to eat the rooster he'd stolen for dinner; his stomach was growling empty, and now, running so fast, he was starting to feel dizzy. Just as he was feeling lightheaded, he lost his footing and fell into a dark grave. He scrambled to his feet, pressing himself to the ground, and found a skull dangling from his toe.

Staring at the stark white skull and dark eye sockets, she felt a chill run down her spine. She immediately pulled the skull off and was about to throw it away when she noticed that the thing that had been following her had also stopped, and there was complete silence behind her.

Zhu Huihui's breathing was heavy, her forehead and back were covered in cold sweat, and her clothes were soaked. The cold wind made her feel chilly, but she didn't dare to wipe it away. Her heart just kept sinking.

After a long while, she mustered her courage and said, "Hey~~ Hey behind you... big... big brother, are you a human or a ghost?" Maybe it's a big sister.

Neither human nor ghost made a sound.

Zhu Huihui waited a while longer, and although she still didn't get an answer, she made up her mind. No matter what the next thing was, if it hadn't attacked her yet, it was either trying to scare her, had ulterior motives, or was waiting for an opportunity... In any case, as long as it didn't kill her right away, it meant she still had a chance!

But the thing behind her remained silent, and this stalemate meant that even if it got to dawn, escape wouldn't be easy. After holding her breath and considering for a moment, she suddenly made a snap decision. Now, she had no choice but to take the risk and fight it out, regardless of the outcome—it was better than standing there like an idiot!

Only by overturning the table first can you find an opportunity while the other party is cleaning up the mess.

She suddenly kicked Hua Hua in the buttocks. A piercing, guttural scream, like a pig being stabbed, suddenly rang out in the silent graveyard; even the dead would be terrified.

This was exactly the effect Zhu Huihui wanted. With a swift backhand, she snatched the skull she was holding and slammed it behind her.

A flash of light appeared in the air, and with a "crack," the skeleton was cleaved in two. Then, the blade tilted slightly to the side, hovering in mid-air.

The blade was slightly curved, pointing downwards, and the hilt was held by a man in black. His face was not visible, only a pair of bloodthirsty eyes that gleamed with a light colder than the blade itself.

Zhu Huihui froze, her legs went weak, and without saying a word, she sat down on the ground.

The knife paused slightly in mid-air before continuing its downward slash, aiming directly at Zhu Huihui's forehead.

Zhu Huihui had witnessed the cruelty of these people more than once. She watched helplessly as the knife drew closer and closer to her. In a panic, she picked up a leg bone from who-knows-who and held it to her head.

How could a bone withstand a steel blade? With a "snap," the leg bone was cleaved diagonally by the blade, which then swept across and continued to slash at Zhu Huihui.

Zhu Huihui's eyes widened as she looked at the knife and the tip of her nose. This time, she didn't even have the thought of struggling or escaping; she simply closed her eyes and waited for death.

Just then, a leg shot out from a nearby grave and kicked her in the buttocks.

Zhu Huihui was kicked and flew several feet away. When he landed, he was still sitting. With a "crack", he cracked a thin coffin. Unable to maintain his balance, he fell headfirst into the coffin.

Dust flew everywhere, choking her and causing her to cough repeatedly. When she opened her eyes, she saw a pile of bones right next to her face!

Ugh!
