C996 Luring the Enemy

Qing Feng didn't know why he knew about the word 'cultivator', maybe it was because he knew about it before he lost his memory. However, it had already been ten years, and he had just arrived outside and he had already met someone who could touch his memory. This made Qing Feng feel a bit scared. He was afraid that the longer he stayed outside, the more likely it would be for him to remember who he was.

He didn't know who he had been before he lost his memory. He didn't care about his past.

Now that he had accepted his identity as Qing Feng, he was afraid that once he remembered who he was, he would abandon his current identity, or even Zi Lan. This was something that he did not want to face at the moment.

"Big Brother Qing Feng?" Zi Lan noticed that Qing Feng seemed to be distracted, and called out to him in a low voice.

Hearing Zi Lan's voice, Qing Feng came back to his senses. He looked at Zi Lan's face and decided that he would rather never be able to remember his real identity than give up on his sister.

Thinking about this, he glanced at the assassin who was resting. He already knew what was on his mind. The other party must have found out that he and Zi Lan were still here, otherwise, he wouldn't be standing guard here.

Perhaps he was standing guard here because the other party was not sure where he and Zi Lan were hiding. As long as he and Zi Lan did not go out, the other party would not be able to find them.

But Qing Feng knew very well that this was not a long term solution. It was already the latter half of the night, and dawn would arrive in a few hours. At that time, even if he and Zi Lan did not go out, the other party would still be able to see where they were.

Thinking of this, Qing Feng's eyes changed, and his expression became somewhat anxious.

He did not expect that he and Zi Lan would encounter such a situation the moment they came out of the village. If something really happened to Zi Lan, how would he explain it to the dead old man?

Thinking of this, Qing Feng began to think quickly, trying to find a way to deal with it.

As time passed, the assassin was also recovering from his injuries. During the process, he opened his eyes a few times and looked around.

He was sure that someone was hiding here, but he didn't go to find him. He just wanted to wait until the next day.

He raised his head and looked at the sky with a sneer on his face.

"It will be dawn in four hours. Let's see how you will dodge then!" The assassin muttered to himself and closed his eyes again.

Qing Feng, who was hiding in the grass, thought about it but still could not think of a good solution. She became anxious, and when Zi Lan saw Qing Feng like this, she lowered her head and started to blame herself.

If she hadn't sprained her foot, they wouldn't have had to stop on the run, and if it hadn't been for the fact that they were too tired to rest, the man wouldn't have come after them.

Most importantly, if Qing Feng was by himself, he could have run away. Thinking of this, Zi Lan blamed herself for everything that happened. She felt that she was the one who caused Qing Feng to have no choice but to hide here like her.

When Qing Feng saw Zi Lan like this, he also saw through the little girl's thoughts. He shook his head and reached out his hand to pat Zi Lan's head.

"Zi Lan, don't blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you ..." Qing Feng wanted to comfort Zi Lan, but the moment he said those words, a strange look flashed across his eyes, as if he had thought of something.

Zi Lan saw that Qing Feng was silent and lowered her head even lower. She thought that Qing Feng was also blaming her, so she felt wronged.

However, Qing Feng did not think like that. Instead, he thought of a way to deal with this assassin.

Although this assassin knew about their existence and had been chasing them, he didn't know that they were two people.

The assassin couldn't find them while they were hiding here. If they couldn't hide any longer at dawn, they might both die at the hands of this man.

However, it was still better for one person to die than two people. Qing Feng would rather use his own life in exchange for Zi Lan's, and now he had also thought of what to do.

As long as he could lure this person away and let Zi Lan leave quietly, then it would be fine. And the reason why the other party was chasing after them might be because of that red gem. Thinking of this, Qing Feng made up his mind.

"Zi Lan, in a while, I will go and lure this person away. You stay here until dawn, and if I don't come back by dawn, then you can run away from here and continue running that way." Qing Feng said to Zi Lan in a low voice.

Zi Lan naturally did not want Qing Feng to do this. She was not stupid, and naturally knew that Qing Feng was using his life in exchange for her own life. She had already treated Qing Feng as her own brother. She had just lost a family member, how could she be willing to see her lose another family member?

"No, Brother Qingfeng, no!" Zi Lan immediately begged, not wanting Qing Feng to do so.

Qing Feng knew that Zi Lan would say that, so he did not say anything else. He only touched Zi Lan's head with his hand again and then rushed out.

The assassin, who was recuperating from his injuries, suddenly felt a movement and stood up. He saw a figure running north, and his eyes narrowed. He knew that the person hiding here had finally lost his patience and chased after him.

At this moment, Zi Lan's mind was completely blank. She did not expect that Qing Feng would actually rush out without even giving her a chance to react. She wanted to pull Qing Feng back, but it was already too late. She hid in the grass in a daze.

Seeing that the bad guy was lured to the north by Qing Feng, she did not go out. Instead, she listened to Qing Feng's words and obediently hid in the grass, waiting for him.

While she was hiding in the grass waiting, the assassin came back. He did not bring Qing Feng back.

The assassin looked around and frowned.

"It seems there is only one man." After saying that, the assassin left again and chased after Qing Feng.

It turns out that the assassin was also very vigilant. He thought that it was a trick to lure the tiger out of the mountain, so he pretended to chase and then turned around to see if there was anyone else.

Fortunately, Zi Lan did not come out of her hiding place. Instead, she listened to Qing Feng's words and obediently hid where she was, which was why she was not discovered.

The assassin had really left this time. Zi Lan could not help but heave a sigh of relief, but she still did not leave. She wanted to wait for Qing Feng to return.

Now, it was almost dawn, and the sky was no longer so dark, it was about to dawn.

"Brother Qing Feng! You have to come back. Zi Lan will be here waiting for you, and you still have to bring her to find her parents, so Zi Lan is afraid of being alone." Zi Lan hid in her hiding spot, hugging her knees with both of her hands and burying her head in it. Only her pair of big eyes looked out carefully but uneasily.

At this moment, even the slightest movement would scare her.
