There was a fire in the woods, and the little wolf was riding it, and the smell of wolf meat was far away. A few wild beasts were staring at them from the darkness. They wanted to ambush these two uninvited guests, but before they could do so, a few wild beasts that had been hit by the pig spirit's green gas fell to the ground with a few howls. When the others saw this scene, they immediately fled, no one knew where they had gone to. The spirit of the pig did not vomit this time, he had almost eaten the entire wolf cub. At this moment, he was rubbing his belly with one front paw, burping as he lay on his back on the ground, while Lin Zheng was lying on his side beside the fire. A man and a pig were chatting casually.

The forest was not very large. Aside from Lin Zheng and the spirit of the pig, there were a few other people running very fast. A petite figure was running at the front, followed by seven well-dressed men. They were running through the forest towards New Ming City. However, there were a dozen masked men following behind them. They used a green cloth to cover their faces and held bows in their hands. As they ran, they shot non-stop. Another man in embroidered clothing was struck by an arrow and fell to the ground.

"Young master, you go first. We'll go stop them. We'll reach New Ming City in less than five kilometers. Then, we'll be safe." As he said this, the four men in embroidered clothes stopped and rushed towards the masked man in black.

"You guys take care, I will bring the soldiers back." The petite young master turned around to look at the four people before continuing to run with the two people by his side.

The four of them were not afraid of death. They held their short blades in their hands as they rushed forward. The black clothed man also rushed over. Seven of them stopped to kill the four of them.

"Young Lord, there seems to be a fire up ahead. Should we run over?" A man in silk clothing beside him suggested to the young lord when he saw the bonfire that was rising up in front of him.

"Let's go. The three of you should be heading in the northwest direction." At this moment, miserable screams could be heard from behind. Someone had died in the battle.

The other four desperately slashed at the three black-clad men. They were also cut down by the other party, fell into a pool of blood, and died.

The black-clothed man chased closely without letting go. They also saw that there was a flame in front of them. They were worried that it was the person's rescue or some other team. If they didn't catch up, they wouldn't be able to deal with it. He continued shooting arrows at the three people in front of him. Another scream rang out, and another man in silk clothing used his body to block the arrow aimed at the young lord to protect him. However, that arrow had hit the young lord's waist, and the man fell to the ground, followed by a knife strike from the masked man in black clothing.

"Young master, you go first, I'll go stop them." The last man in a suit saw his comrade die here. He seemed to have gone crazy as he brandished his machete and rushed towards the black-masked men.

"Come back, don't sacrifice yourself for nothing, reinforcements are ahead." The young lord was very cunning, he pointed out that the area of fire in front of him was the reinforcement troops.

There were only about ten of them, and the last one who had pounced on them was clearly much stronger than the previous ones. Their assassination attempt could be said to be a failure, they had organized more than fifty assassins, and now, there were less than ten remaining. If they did not kill this Young Master, they would not be able to live in peace.

The other five quickly nocked their bows and shot arrows at the young lord in front of them. The five arrows flew out like arrows, and the young lord turned and ran, but the five arrows missed, but the speed of the arrows had clearly slowed down. At this time, one of the five people had already pulled out a dagger from his waist and rushed forward.

"Hack him to death and avenge the young prince!" The leader of the group brandished his saber and leaped even closer to the young lord. The four people behind also charged forward while shouting.

"What are you doing, not sleeping in the middle of the night!" They were afraid that the reinforcements would be coming from this young master. If it was really the young master's reinforcements, then even if they tried to flee, they would not be able to escape, only death would await them. After all, life was more important, surviving was still better than death.

Just as the five of them were in a daze, miserable screams came from behind. The three masked men in black did not rush forward. They and the man in embroidered clothes had perished together. This voice also made the leader of the men in black's body shudder, as they slowed down their pace and moved forward.

At this moment, the young lord had also run to the source of the light. There was no one near the fire, only a pig standing on its four hooves. When the young lord saw this, he was also startled. Where was the person who just shouted? He turned his head and looked around. At this moment, the four masked men in black had also arrived at a place not far away from the fire. They understood that there was only one pig. With a leap, "sou, sou, sou, sou", the four landed in all four directions. They brandished their scimitars to surround the young lord, while the other one leaped not far away from the spirit of the pig.

The man in black was also unsure. They looked around and confirmed that there was no one here. No one noticed that the pig was squinting its eyes at the trees around it.

"Bastard, you are not a friend. If there is a war, you can just run. This is not good enough for you." "You sure are a bastard. I've raised you for so long, yet you treat me like this. You have no conscience." The pig started to speak, but no one knew it was the pig. They heard someone talking, but they couldn't see anyone. They were nervous, too, and looked around.

"Bastard brat, I know you're on a tree. Come down, us brothers will carry the burden together. You can't let me block the blade by myself, you can look at the wind shadows up there." The boar spirit spoke once again, and this time, the boar spirit stood up straight. Its voice reminded the five of them, and they all looked up at the tree. At this moment, the person that had landed beside the spirit of the pig realized that the person speaking had come from the pig.

"Don't be afraid, the sound is coming from this pig, no one else." the man in black shouted.

"Give me your life." When the other four heard this, they all rushed to fight the young lord. At this moment, the young lord was also anxious. He originally thought that there would be someone here, but it turned out to be only a pig. He brandished his short blade and fought with four people. At the same time, the masked man in black beside the boar spirit also moved. He raised his blade and chopped towards the boar spirit.

"I'll kill the two of you today and also roast pork to eat." he shouted, hacking hard. Actually, he was also dumbfounded. According to common sense, pigs could speak human language, and they could even stand up like a human. At the very least, this meant that this pig was not a normal pig.

Puff, a stream of green gas appeared to be very mysterious under the illumination of the fire. Before the black-masked man's blade could cut down, his body was sent flying. He crashed into a tree and fell to the ground. He moved his body and got up, holding the knife in his hand and hacked at the pig again. But at this moment, there was another green gas, as mysterious as before. In an instant, this green gas was even more powerful and faster than the previous one. The green gas seeped through his body, leaving a bloody hole on the black clothed man's body. The green gas didn't seem to slow down at all, only dissipating into the darkness after hitting a large tree. The masked man in black fell backwards. He had not expected this pig to be so powerful even in death. After the spirit pig had killed the man in black, it did not go to help the young lord. Instead, it stood up and tilted its head towards the tree. This sudden turn of events also shocked the other four masked men. The young master felt that this matter was outrageous and stood there in a daze.

Puff, blood splashed out. He took the opportunity to strike at the young lord, but the young lord's reaction was already a little too slow, he still raised his blade to block, but he did not have enough strength, the black masked man's waist blade split open the young lord's blade, the force of the blade descended and left a wound on the young lord's back, blood immediately flowed out, and dyed the young lord's clothes red. The young lord took a few steps forward and plunged his head into the ground. He screamed in pain as he hastily turned his body and raised his blade to defend himself. Right at this moment, the other three masked men in black, together with the previous young man, swung their blades towards the young lord.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed on top of a big tree. The light illuminated the big tree. Following that, the chanting of sutras could be heard. It sounded as if there were dozens of people chanting at the same time. The scripture sounded, and silence descended from all directions. All living things stopped in an instant. The sabers of the four masked men all touched the young lord's sabre, but at this critical moment, an accident occurred. They were immediately frozen in place, and the young lord also stopped moving. Even the spirit of the pig was not spared. The only thing that could move here was probably the fire. As a gust of wind blew past, the fire swayed, making this place become all the quieter. With a flash of light, a figure appeared beside the bonfire.
