Chapter 1 Master and Apprentice

“Um…”

Feeling the pain in his throat like fire, Mo Tao struggled to open his eyes.

He turned his head with difficulty, but saw that the under his left shoulder was empty, so he naturally had no sense of consciousness, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He looked around, and his mind suddenly roared, and his body suddenly shook.

This is a space twisted by heat waves, and the sky is dyed red. Looking up, there are broken walls wrapped in raging flames everywhere. The sound of explosions and collapses came from all around, becoming the main theme of this purgatory land.

This! Here is?!

Mo Tao widened his eyes and quickly turned over and sat up. He gasped for a few breaths, tried his best to sort out his thoughts, and quickly wiped the blood from his face, and then subconsciously ran towards the direction in his memory.

I don’t know how long he had just staggered. Finally, he found his figure who had been searching for for a long time in the center surrounded by heat waves.

It was a young beautiful woman in a blue shirt, her body covered in dust and filth, but could not hide her beautiful face. She was holding a small swaddle in her arms, and was anxiously looking into the distance.

Mo Tao couldn't help but relax his heart. He opened his mouth to shout, but found that he couldn't speak out. He hurriedly waved at the beautiful woman and rushed over.

The beautiful woman then noticed Mo Tao and smiled at him. However, at this moment, the flames soaring into the sky suddenly burst out from behind the beautiful woman and instantly swallowed her in!

Mo Tao's body stiffened, and then he was furious: "No--"

The next moment, he suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Is it... a dream again?"

Mo Tao looked at his room and everything was as usual. He let out a sigh of relief, calmed down, wiped off the sweat beads from his forehead, then turned over and got out of bed and walked towards the door.

"Um?"

Just when his fingertips were just a little short of touching the door panel, Mo Tao suddenly smelled a strange breath. Without thinking, he turned around and kicked the door panel, and he immediately took advantage of the force to fly backwards.

With a clang, the door of the room was kicked open.

Almost at the same time, several short arrows appeared on the ground where Mo Tao had just stood. At this moment, the arrow had already penetrated into the ground, and the tail was still slightly vibrating.

Mo Tao raised his eyebrows and looked around, and there was no other movement. He sneered lightly, then he approached and looked closely. He saw that the tails of the short arrows had some small hooks, in addition to the arrow feathers stuck to them.

There are generally two uses of this kind of hook. One is to bring something, such as small objects such as letters. However, even if Mo Tao didn't even look at the launcher on the door frame, he understood that the purpose of these short arrows must be the same.

First, these thin hooks do not come with anything. Second, the thin hooks are hidden between the arrow feathers and are not easy to detect without careful reading. Their material also determines the sharpness of the hook body and can easily scratch people's clothes. Third, the inlay between the thin hook and the tail of the arrow also has a separation ejection recovery design.

Obviously, this is trying to take something away from him.

"Hide the trajectory of the hidden weapon into the sunlight..." Mo Tao smashed his mouth twice and commented indifferently, "The completion is still okay, but the idea is too naive and ordinary. Isn't it reasonable to underestimate me like this?"

He thought for a moment and walked out of the room.

There was no one in the yard. There was a living room directly opposite his room, and there was a small workshop next to the living room. The fire in the large iron furnace was strong, obviously it was not extinguished for many years. Between the two bedrooms, the doors and windows of the main hall facing the gate of the yard were closed. Seeing this, Mo Tao nodded slightly.

He looked around the yard again, and then he jumped onto the roof with force without thinking. But before he could look around again, an alarm suddenly arose in his heart, and he forced himself to twist his body and fall out to the side.

Almost at the same time, the tiles on the roof were automatically unveiled in sequence, and countless short arrows with hooks were flying out as before, and shot towards Mo Tao in one go.

Mo Tao secretly exclaimed in his heart. It is very important to seize the high point during the battle, but the other party is also very clear about this point. He should have been wary of it as a warning to take advantage of this in turn.

But that's it-

He snorted lightly, and his remaining right palm slapped at the roof, and once again leveraged his strength to speed up his body to fly back. At the same time, he waved his arm with a wave of sudden wind with a hidden sonic boom, sweeping towards the short arrows that were approaching.

The short arrow came in a fierce manner, but as soon as it touched the gust of wind, it trembled twice as it shook the sieve chaff, and then it was unable to fly backwards.

Seeing this, Mo Tao felt a sudden slap in his heart.

Or a false move?!

This wave of attacks seemed fierce, but did not contain much change and was not difficult to resolve. However, in this way, he forced himself into a dilemma of having nowhere to borrow power in this very short moment.

Without thinking, two shiny black pebbles suddenly appeared in his hand, and then he rushed out of his back with a strange technique.

From leveraging force with one palm to waving the arm to shooting down short arrows, then shooting pebbles behind you. This set of movement is smooth and you can't feel that it is a temporary solution to counterattack, but it seems to be orderly and done in one go.

But he still couldn't escape the huge force from his waist hitting the eaves, and he fell to a strong end.

"Oh!"

But at the same time, a terrifying cry came from behind Mo Tao. Then the muffled sound of people rolling down from the roof and falling into the yard.

Hearing the sound, Mo Tao struggled to support his upper body and leaned down into the room, then hurriedly looked at his waist. But when he saw that a key was still tied there, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking back at the young man who was rubbing his arms in the yard and stood up hard, Mo Tao was obviously a little angry: "Ningle, you guy, want me to be a man of Yin? Let's practice for another twenty years!"

“…Can you stand up first and then show off your strength?”

The young man called Ning Le kept rubbing his shoulders, as if he was very painful, and he grinned his teeth and replied: "And I had agreed before, Lao Mo, you can only dodge and defend, not fight back. Look at your arm being beaten by you, tsk, it is so hurt that the muscles and bones are so bad that the human beings and gods are angry and demons cry together! You have broken the rules, so it should be considered that we have passed the trial, right?"

"Stop selling miserable things there."

Mo Tao responded to Ning Le's big eyes: "Those two stones will cause you to dislocate at most, and you will be able to come back by yourself. This can also be called a counterattack? It's just my subconscious self-defense reaction! If you were serious, you would have been beaten into a sieve."

Ning Le was dissatisfied when he heard this: "Hey, I'm sorry, everyone, don't you not be able to afford it, right?"

"Let's go, let's go with each other."

Mo Tao pointed to his empty left sleeve with his chin: "I looked at the mechanisms you arranged, but it didn't seem like they could be completed in a hurry in one day. But this left arm will not be broken sooner or later, but it broke down yesterday. Today, you took advantage of the opportunity of a few arm to launch a surprise attack. Explain it?"
Chapter completed!
