Chapter 788: Jiang's Soul
There are all kinds of stalls on the bustling riverside, eating, drinking, and fanning, and Fang Yichun shuttles through them with auspiciousness and has a good time.
The three of Chu Jiang were at the top of the Linjiang Pavilion, talking about the changes in the power in the Western Regions and the major events in the Four Regions.
Chu Jiang picked up a glass of wine, and suddenly, the space and time around him paused for a second.
His eyes were slightly condensed, and Chu Jiang released his divine sense, but he didn't find anything.
"Brother Chu, what's wrong?" Jiang Yichen felt that something was wrong with Chu Jiang and asked.
Chu Jiang smiled and said jokingly, "Maybe I haven't drunk for too long, and I'm a little overwhelmed." ”
Jiang Yichen patted Chu Jiang on the shoulder, "Haha, my wine has a unique material, and my soul power can't relieve its wine." ”
"So that's the case," Chu Jiang echoed, and the moment he put down the wine glass, Jiang Yichen's withdrawn hand stiffened in the air, and his expression froze on his face.
Chu Jiang looked around, everyone was like statues, and even the dancing flames in the lampshade stopped.
Standing up, Chu Jiang's expression was serious, and suddenly, a red shadow flashed at the top of the staircase, and the surroundings returned to their original appearance.
"Hey, when did you stand up?" Wu Kongqing asked suspiciously, he was obviously sitting, but he stood up in a blink of an eye.
"I suddenly have something to attend to, and I'll be right back. Dropping this sentence, Chu Jiang went downstairs directly.
"Hey, soon, the fireworks will be set off," Jiang Yichen looked at Chu Jiang's back as he left with a confused expression, and muttered.
Chu Jiang, who came out of the Linjiang Pavilion, swept the surging crowd, locked his eyes on a figure wrapped in red satin, and chased after him.
"Flower lanterns, lanterns, a silver coin and a lamp, you can enter the river to pray!" "Charcoal-grilled fish, fragrant fish, don't miss it when you pass by!"
Across the crowd and stalls, Chu Jiang and the red figure got closer and closer, and they also sped up.
"Dada!"
A few sounds of water came from the soles of his feet, Chu Jiang suddenly came to his senses, and unconsciously, he came to a remote riverside.
The icy river water lapped against his feet, and there was a slight coolness.
And the figure that Chu Jiang had been chasing stood tightly in the middle of the river, with his back to it, showing sadness.
"If you continue to play like this, don't blame me for being rude. A trace of killing intent flashed in Chu Jiang's eyes, judging from Wu Kongqing's reaction, it shouldn't be a psychedelic technique, then this person is extremely good at spatial secret techniques, so he can fiddle with Chu Jiang in the palm of his hand like this.
The red shadow slowly turned around, and a miserable white but delicate face appeared in Chu Jiang's field of vision, especially the eyes full of grievances, which made people feel pity.
"Can you help me?" the woman spoke, and in an instant, her figure was close, only a stone's throw away from Chu Jiang, and her whole body was almost attached.
Chu Jiang's face was solemn, "Are you a ghost?"
Looking closely, the woman's body is not physical, but rather slightly transparent, closer to the state of a ghost. And at such a distance from Chu Jiang, he didn't breathe any breath.
"I was originally the daughter of an ordinary family in Jiang Chuan City, named Zhao Huangyi," Zhao Huangwei took a few steps back, turned around and said, "At the age of fifteen, I could have married the person I fell in love with, but I never wanted to be favored by Jiang Fengming, the son of the city lord of Jiang Chuan City, ...... bastard."
The more he spoke, the more passionate Zhao Huangyi's tone became, and the surrounding rivers began to churn.
Although he hadn't finished speaking, Chu Jiang already knew what the outcome would be.
"Do you want me to help you kill that Jiang Fengming?" Chu Jiang opened his mouth and asked.
Zhao Huangyi's face turned cold, "No, I want him to live, I just need you to help me catch him and hand him over to me." ”
"It's much harder to catch a person than to kill someone, and why should I help you?" Chu Jiang said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Do you know the dragon vein?" Zhao Huangli asked.
Chu Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "You mean there is a dragon vein at the bottom of this river?"
Legend of the dragon vein is that after the death of the true dragon, its spiritual essence and blood are mixed with the surrounding aura to form a special kind of aura. If you can obtain the dragon qi infusion body, you can cultivate the dragon protection golden body, and you can resist the fatal blow at a critical time.
"That's right," Zhao Huangli said seductively, "As long as you can catch Jiang Fengming's bully, I will take you to the land of the dragon vein." ”
"How can I believe what you say," Chu Jiang continued, "It would be too risky for me to kidnap the son of a city lord based on your words alone. ”
Zhao Huangyi closed his eyes, and suddenly, his red body was dyed with a layer of gold, and the sound of a dragon's groan faintly came out.
"When I was killed by him, and then I was thrown into the river, my deep resentment met the dragon qi by chance to condense my soul and form this appearance. The golden color faded quickly, Zhao explained.
Chu Jiang showed a thoughtful look, "Then why did you choose me? After all, there are people who are more powerful than me." ”
"No, no one here can compare to you," Zhao Huangyi replied directly, "Your strength is far more than it seems on the surface, especially your flames, even I feel a trace of palpitations every time I feel it." ”
"Since you have said so, then I have a premise, as long as you agree, then I will help you this time. Chu Jiang smiled at the corner of his mouth and agreed.
Zhao Huangwei frowned slightly, "What premise?"
"Incorporate this flame of mine into your body," Chu Jiang raised his hand and ignited a trace of ice-hearted fire, but its temperature and power were completely restrained, and it didn't seem to hurt at all.
Staring at the flame in Chu Jiang's palm, Zhao Huangli hesitated, "Okay, I promise you." ”
After speaking, Zhao Huangyi beckoned, took the flame, and swallowed it directly into his stomach.
"A few years ago he came to enjoy the fireworks, I did it and it ended in failure. So after that, every time there was a fireworks display, he would stay in the city lord's mansion and not come out, hiding from me. Zhao Huangyi said, "I guess I'm having fun in the house now." ”
Chu Jiang shook his sleeves, "Okay, I'll come here when I go." ”
After speaking, Chu Jiang's figure disappeared in place.
At the same time, an iron ball with a bare tail rose into the sky amid the cheers of the crowd and exploded, and the sparks in the sky brightened the entire sky. Brilliant fireworks followed, recreating the gardens of the Heavenly Palace in the dark night.
In the city lord's mansion, in the hall of the side hall, a man hugged left and right, and the wine pool was meaty, so unhappy.
"Hmph, that hateful woman won't let me go when she dies, so I can't go out and have fun, and one day I will completely annihilate you in this heaven and earth. Jiang Fengming vaguely saw the brilliant fire through the half-hidden door, and cursed.
The charming woman on the left clinged to Jiang Fengming's body, raised her hand and rubbed it on his chest, "Isn't Childe still us? Let's serve Childe well tonight." ”
Jiang Fengming grabbed the woman's wrist, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "You little goblin, then I will love you well." ”
Spring was everywhere in the hall, and a cold wind suddenly blew in, but it still couldn't extinguish the heat inside.
"Ah, people, people," the woman who was pressed under her widened her eyes and stuttered, and the next moment she was directly lifeless.
Chu Jiang's hand was on Jiang Fengming's shoulder, and the water clouds and streams instantly wrapped out, wrapping it into a silkworm cocoon.
Lifting it up, Chu Jiang hid his body again, leaving several corpses in the silent hall.
"Little thief, you dare to kidnap someone in my city lord's mansion, it's not bold!"
As soon as Chu Jiang came out of the hall, an angry shout came from the depths of the City Lord's Mansion.
Chu Jiang frowned slightly, feeling the aura of the peak of the Spirit Terrace Realm rushing towards him, shooting out countless water clouds and flowing threads, "Rainstorm Silk!"
An old man threw a wooden cane and rushed at the oncoming stream, then spun it around and twisted it all around.
The next moment, the old man's figure flickered, approached Chu Jiang, and burst out with a palm.
Chu Jiang hid under the black robe, and also reached out a hand and hit it hard.
"Bang!"
There was a loud bang, and the turbulent air flow came out.
The corners of his mouth rose, and Chu Jiang's palm suddenly exuded a strong chill, instantly freezing the old man's palm into ice, and the ice quickly spread towards the old man's body.
"Extreme Ice Intent!" The old man was startled, and hurriedly used his soul power to stop this chill, but found that this chill was extremely invasive.
"Bye-bye," Chu Jiang kicked his frozen arm, and then his figure disappeared into space again.
The old man fell to the ground and sat up, a faint wave of water rippled around him, and the vine-colored soul power was overflowing, resisting Chu Jiang's extreme ice with all his might.
In a moment, the Chu River had reached the riverside, the fireworks had fallen, and many people began to set off lanterns in the river to pray for peace and harmony.
"Fortunately, the old man's soul power is water-attributed," Chu Jiang muttered, his Extreme Ice Intent just restrained him firmly.
The orange candles are supported by paper flowers, dancing densely on the surface of the river, like the Milky Way on the ground.
Suddenly, there was a slight shaking in the river, and Zhao Huangyi's figure emerged.
Chu Jiang threw Jiang Fengming, who was tightly wrapped in his hand, on the bank of the river, "The person you want is here." ”
Zhao Huangyi's eyes were full of indifference and looked at the white ball, manipulating the river to drag it into the river.
"Don't, don't, you crazy woman...... Grunt...... Gollum ......"
"Alright, it's time for you to fulfill your promise. Chu Jiang said slowly.
Zhao Huangli nodded, "You come with me." ”
After speaking, Zhao Huangyi turned into a puddle of water and blended into the surroundings.
Chu Jiang walked into the river and followed Zhao Huangli to swim towards the depths of the river.
In the city lord's mansion, in the main hall, "Pass my order, block the city gate, and don't let anyone let me go!" Jiang Feng yelled, and ordered to his subordinates, "Even if you turn this Jiang Chu City upside down, you must find out my Ming'er!"
"Although Ming'er is usually domineering, she won't provoke people of this level," the old man squeezed his hand, which was still a little numb, and said to Jiang Feng, "I suspect it's ......."
