Volume II, Xuanhai Immortal Mountain_Chapter 79, Hostage
She walked down the dirt slope in a somewhat dejected way, staggering like a bird with wet wings. I looked up, laughed, and whispered, "It's okay, they're outside, you should find them if you keep walking along the avenue." β
Patches of shade and damp ground, but the sky was clearer than ever, like a transparent gem, she walked up to me and wanted to say something, but in the end all the words turned into speechless.
Many times after that, I asked Shen Mengtian how she felt when I replaced her with myself. But I asked many times to no avail, and it was not until I went to the United States on a business trip and sat face-to-face with her who had settled in the United States for coffee that she told me the answer.
I remember that the sun was shining brightly, there were few people in the cafΓ©, and the waitress was chatting, and we were sitting on a simple sofa, and she was leaning against the window, her already wrinkled face was soaked in the sun, but she still smiled beautifully, and said softly: "Until that day, I had always had a crush on you." And after that day, I knew I was in love with you. β
Time flies so fast that people can't even cry. At that time, I would not accept Shen Mengtian at the stall where I broke up with Yudie, but I have to say that she still has an urge to let me protect after walking down the dirt slope in despair, and I have to admit that I may have been moved after many years.
"No need to say anything, let's go."
When I look back, I think maybe I should have been very calm at that moment, as calm as a sailor who was accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves and a doctor who witnessed countless deaths.
She passed me by, looked back at me step by step, and finally left the village, while I held the porcelain vase in my hand, opened the lid, and shouted, "My husband says yes, I will drink it if I say it!" β
Tilting his head and pouring it into his throat, the liquid in the bottle was a little bitter, and after sliding into his throat, his body immediately began to change, and his strength seemed to be slowly drained, becoming weaker and weaker and more tired, as if it was laborious to bend down and pick up stones from the ground. Yun Li strode over, and the evil fire came out of his hand and slapped it on my chest, and the evil fire entered my body, blocking my meridians, and the breath was forcibly suppressed in the dantian.
"Haha, this time, I finally caught you!" Yun Li pressed my shoulder, hit me in the stomach several times in a row, to be honest, it was not very painful, but it was very stuffy, the accumulated air in my chest spit out little by little, and slowly lay on the ground, Yun Li grabbed my hair and shouted: "Wasn't you very hung five years ago?" Isn't it possible to defeat me just after my debut? Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, you should have understood this truth a long time ago, and now, you are in my hands again. β
I smiled, shook my head and said, "Yes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, how do you know when it won't fall into my hands again?" β
"Grass!" Maybe my words angered him again, and his fists rained down, and he didn't hit me with the Evil Fire, maybe because he was afraid that the Evil Fire would kill me, after all, I was still very useful to him now.
"Lock him up, ask about the situation of the Xuanhai, and then prepare the people, we are ready to enter the Xuanhai again!" Yun Li shouted a command, and I was set up by a few demons and thrown into a dark cave.
I've been thinking about being locked up, they want to enter the Xuanhai, and I actually don't know how to enter the inside of the Xuanhai at all, but as long as I get close to the waterspout, it will definitely attack, I can get out with the waterspout, and when the time comes, I will take the recovered people to take Yun Li down!
Of course, this plan is not without danger, I obviously feel that my body has no strength after drinking the thing in the porcelain bottle, and with the evil fire entering the body, it is still a question mark whether I can survive the attack of the waterspout. If you want to save this little life of you, the top priority is to find a way to restore the qi in your body.
Yun Li may still think that I was the fledgling kid five years ago, so he thought that the evil fire would seal my qi if it entered my body, but my growth was not something he could have imagined. To paraphrase Mr. Tang's words, I can objectively point out my state.
"Ba Xiaoshan, you are hiding deeper than others estimate."
Sitting down cross-legged, the dantian stirred slightly in the dark, and the qi in the dantian was swallowed outward, going up along the meridians, but the evil fire between the meridians immediately reacted, and the tug-of-war began.
Yun Li's evil fire has also increased compared to five years ago, but it is much slower than I imagined, even if he was a genius in the past, but if he didn't concentrate on cultivation, then these five years would be as short as five days. But after all, Yun Li is still a powerful senior, I estimated that if you want to open the meridians by the usual method, it will take at least ten days or so, but what I have is only one night, so the ordinary method is useless. You can only take a little risk, and the sword will go sideways!
The evil fire is fierce, and if you want to cure something more fierce than this, you have to be more fierce than it! This is like dealing with those wicked people, your blind tolerance or evasion will only fuel their arrogance, and you will be more ruthless when dealing with the ruthless, and you will be more fierce when dealing with the fierce!
The breath was released instantly, and with a flip of my palm, the breath that originally showed a masculine face suddenly became cold and terrifying, constantly shuttling in the body, and frantically devouring when encountering evil fire, like a hungry tiger. However, the consequences of the transformation of the breath also followed, the whole body was cold, the layers of cold air on the forehead were constantly coming out, and there was no place in the body that was warm.
But the most terrible thing is that it takes a lot of perseverance to persist in this state for a whole night, and yet I have to hold on. The two little demons at the door have been walking back and forth, but fortunately these two guys did not notice my abnormality, time passed very slowly, but every time they devoured a piece of evil qi, a piece of meridians was liberated, and the condition of my body was developing in a good direction.
The sky grew brighter, and at the beginning of the day, I opened my eyes and stood up from the ground, and looked around to see the ground around my body full of icy marks left by the cold air. I moved my wrist a bit, the evil qi in my body has been removed, but I can't show it yet, my limbs are still weak, the things I drank are not so quick to pass the effect, it is estimated that I will have to wait a few days, but as long as the qi in my body can function normally, I have a chance to escape.
After resting for an hour, a few little demons walked into the cell, and when they saw me, they stretched out their hands and dragged me out, Yun Yu and a group of demon clans were already waiting at the gate of the group, and when they saw me come out, they sneered: "How is it?" Is it still comfortable? β
"It's just a little colder, if only there was a quilt." I replied with a smile.
"Fucking still hard-mouthed, wait for me to use you to open the way, when I kill you, see if you are still hard-mouthed, are you ready? All on the road! β
After speaking, he waved his arms and led the demons on the road.
"Is there really a dragon in the Xuan Hai?"
I was surrounded by a few little demons, pretending that I couldn't resist, and by the way, I wanted to get a clichΓ© from Yun Li's mouth.
"Don't you know that you've been in the genkai?" He asked me in turn.
"I just went in, it doesn't mean that I figured out what's going on inside, there is a huge black dragon stone pillar under the Xuanhai Sea, and I have also seen the shadow of the black dragon, does that mean that there is really a dragon in the Xuanhai? And what do you want to do with all the trouble you go to such lengths? I asked questions continuously, but Yun Li smiled and said, "Will I do anything that has no benefits?" It's none of your business what I'm going to do, but it doesn't matter if there's a dragon in the Xuan Hai to tell you. There is an old dragon stationed in the Xuanhai, the orphan of the dragon clan, and it is a dragon soul that is inseparable from the Xuanhai. β
"Dragon Soul?" I was stunned.
"That is, the soul of the dead dragon, stationed here, maybe to protect other demon clans, but although it is only a dragon soul, it is very strong, and I have been blocked by it several times when I want to enter the Xuanhai. I haven't even found a way into the Xuan Sea, this time you came to be cannon fodder, I think it shouldn't be able to stop me. β
People have souls when they die, and not only people have souls when they die, but also all things in the world. The same is true for dragons, and I thought about the black shadow I saw in the waterspout at that time, maybe it was really not a living real dragon, but just a dragon soul that never left.
