Chapter Fifty-Four: Expedition to the Fire Ripple, Crystal Stone Seat
In the past, I was drunk and dreamed of chasing rivers and lakes, and once I was separated from overseas, I didn't know that the meeting was in a dream.
Jiang Ming was stunned, looking at Shen Yiwu, who had not been seen for a long time, with a complicated face, full of confusion, at this time she recovered her daughter's body, with a slender waist and a tight black dress, and her demeanor was unique. However, why did he always feel a kind of confusion and emptiness when he touched her eyes?
He was desperate to stand up, but his body stiffened as if he couldn't help himself, and wanted to ask her how she was doing, but her lips were covered by her fingers.
"Don't speak, Jiang Ming, don't alarm the people outside. ”
Jiang Ming nodded clearly, but he was a little surprised why she was silent, outside were the two guards specially sent by Kwai Ji to guard him, could it be that there were some things Kwai Ji couldn't know?
Shen Yi looked at Jiang Ming obsessively, and said in a gentle and sympathetic voice, almost pleadingly: "I'm here waiting for someone to rescue me, and finally you are here." In the Huolian Cave eighty miles away from Sui City, there is an extremely powerful ghost, I was planted by him as a fire puppet, and in seven days he will absorb my essence, I only hope that you can come, if you can't save me, let me die a decent death. ”
"You, how could it be? You can't be joking, right?" Jiang Ming's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he noticed that Shen Yi's expression was different from the past, and he no longer questioned what she said, and he hurriedly said: "How can I save you? Can you just stay here?" I'll go find the demon spear Dong Heng to help us, even if the real ghost thing attacks, it may not be his opponent. ”
Shen Yi smiled miserably, didn't say anything, held his right hand on his chest for a long time, a dark cyan copper piece the size of half a palm gradually appeared, Jiang Ming watched her actions strangely, and a very similar copper piece also appeared on his chest, as if he was tempted, the two copper pieces were suspended in the air, and they slammed together gently, and in an instant, there seemed to be a huge amount of energy surging out, and then it poured into Jiang Ming's body without any expectation, and the two copper pieces also sank into his chest together. He instantly felt a coolness permeate his whole body, and all kinds of injuries were rapidly recovering, this was the agitation from the divine artifact Desolate Yuan Ding, and in less than a few minutes, he already felt that his injuries had healed for six or seven minutes.
"Worry, your shards ......"
"It's yours from now on...... Remember to come to me!" Shen Yi said this sadly, and then turned and ran, the wall seemed to be unobstructed, and in the blink of an eye, her figure had disappeared.
"Yi worry!" Jiang Ming jumped out of bed, his eyes were already quite worried, and he pushed open the window to look, but he couldn't see the person he wanted to see.
"What's the matter, Childe!" The two guards heard Jiang Ming's shout, pushed the door in, and saw Jiang Ming, who had been bedridden for several days, actually stood up, and before they could ask in surprise, two figures had already rushed from the other side, it was the famous gun Zhu Ran and the demon gun Dong Heng.
"I think I sensed the fragment of the Wasted Origin Ding, and it was time to talk to him. Jiang Ming nodded and motioned for the two guards to retreat, and then invited Zhu Ran and Dong Heng into the house to serve tea.
This appearance as if he had never been sick surprised the two of them, Dong Heng said: "In just a few days, you will recover from your injuries, it seems that this kind of artifact does have a spiritual effect, I am curious about how you protect this treasure without any background?"
Jiang Ming shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't have any ability, it's all up to luck." Did you two follow what you just did?"
Zhu Ran said: "Martial artists below the heavenly rank naturally can't feel the energy fluctuations of Fang Cai, but the perception of those who also have that thing is extremely clear, if my guess is right, you should have two fragments, right? ”
"Don't worry, we have no bad intentions, although this kind of artifact is extremely powerful, but nothing is more important than my junior brother's life, he also got this treasure that countless people are eager to find by chance, although it is a treasure, it is also a poison that makes people angry, if it is not for Zhu Ran to escape several disasters with this object, I will force him to discard it." Dong Heng saw the hesitation in Jiang Ming's eyes and explained.
"I do have two fragments, and I tell them all today based on trust in both. I don't ask you two to not show off, I just want you to help me with one thing as a person. Jiang Ming bowed his chin and bowed his fists. Such a solemn etiquette startled the two of them, and the two looked at each other and asked, "But what Miss Kwai said about appearing at the Goose Fall Conference?" If this is the case, we have already agreed to Miss Kwai Hi, of course, it is also to repay the kindness of your sacrifice to save each other......
"Not really. Jiang Ming looked at the surprised eyes of the two, and said righteously: "I want to ask the two of you to help me eradicate the ghosts in this area, please ask for fire ripples!"
Jiang Ming told all the things about Shen Yi's worries, as for Shen Yi's worries, he only replaced them with the word friend, and he couldn't understand the ghosts and fire puppet branding.
After hearing this, the two of them pondered for a long time, Dong Heng frowned and said: "The Huolian Cave you said is in the place where the demons gather, there are at least five demon cultivators in the status realm, and if the existence in the cave is really a ghost thing, the realm of my quadruple status is not one of them at all, you must know that the ghost thing will inevitably exceed the quadruple human position when the body is intact, even if there is some damage after death, I dare not easily take risks." ”
"Even the demon spear Dong Heng ......" Jiang Ming thought about it carefully, and was even more worried about Shen Yi's situation, he gritted his teeth and knelt directly on the ground, and said, "This is a request in my own name, not Yanzong or anyone else." I hope you can help me, and if you can't do anything in the face of the great calamity, you can just retreat. But if I can rescue my friend, I Jiang Ming will definitely repay me with life and death in the future. ”
"But he is a person with affection and righteousness!" Although Dong Heng admired it, his face changed, and he scolded: "What kind of identity do you think you are, why do you make us think you are valuable?
Jiang Ming said: "I may not have a background that is enough to make the two of you jealous, but I think that the two of you are willing to come here tonight must value some of my authority? If I speculate, you want to use my fragments to stir up with your fragments, so that they can quickly merge with your body? If not, I can't think of any other possibility. ”
Dong Heng said: "Are you threatening us? Don't forget, we can kill you directly, isn't it easier to capture the fragments?"
Jiang Ming smiled and said: "No, compared to this fragment that is both a treasure and a poison, you are more willing to choose to maintain the reputation of the Gunman, since the disappearance of the Gunman Yuan Zhiwei, the entire Zhu Tianye is in turmoil, and you have also fallen into a big crisis, if you kill me directly now, it is estimated that the eyeliner in the secret will directly blacken your reputation, and at that time, you will also be hunted down by countless people with lust for profit." ”
Dong Heng didn't say anything more, the silence already showed that what Jiang Ming said was true, but he didn't seem to want to provoke this incident, and he was looking for a suitable reason in his heart.
Jiang Ming said: "I hope the two of you can help me, the use of the Wasteland Ding fragment is just a trivial matter, and the favor I promised will also be agreed, if it happens, I will give the two of you a volume of Eclipse Word Fan Martial Arts, how about it?"
Hearing this, even with Dong Heng's determination, he couldn't help but be moved, and a promise that looked like a crisis was finally achieved in the frozen expressions of the two gunmen.
A hundred miles west of the Sui City, the barren mountains are like a barrier, the half-moon-shaped open area is almost much larger than a medium-sized city, and there are stone platforms and caves in the mountains, which is already a good place to live in this demon gathering place. There are 80 in the north and south of the mountain, there are 3,200 holes, among them there is a high cliff rock inlay hole, with its stone pattern like flames, because it is named "Fire Ripple Hole".
But I saw that there was fire light overflowing from the fire ripple cave, and the sound of whipping and screaming was endless, but I saw that there was a faint white light in the hole, and the four sides were silent, as if waiting for something.
A black shadow jumped into the cave with light steps, and depending on its posture and appearance, it was Shen Yiwu from Sui City. Her face was unjoyful, her empty eyes were just looking at the road, and she seemed to be unable to see anything else.
She stepped into the cave, there were living creatures and monsters in the cave, half-beasts and half-human tigers, leopards, bears, snakes, and all kinds of demon cultivators lined up on both sides, opening a narrow passage for the people who came, the shape of these demon cultivators was already huge, and their fierce and vicious expressions were enough to make ordinary people frightened to death, but Shen Yiwu didn't seem to see these demon cultivators, and walked straight towards the end of the queue, where there was a crystal stone seat, and a peerless woman with a weak body sat on it.
"You're going to see that man?" the woman on the crystal pedestal moved her eyebrows, as if awake and sleeping.
Shen Yi said coldly: "You can manipulate half of my spirit, what can I do to escape your surveillance, why do you want to influence my thoughts, why do you want to let Jiang Ming come?"
The woman didn't have any expression, she looked straight into Shen Yi's worried eyes, and after a long time, she said: "A few days ago, the scorpion and Yueliuji were injured, and according to my eyeliner, it was the gunman who did it with them, and the man in your mouth. What intrigued me was that I sensed in Tsukiliuhime a power that did not belong to this region, and my crippled soul perception was extremely sensitive to it, it was left by a rather familiar object, but I can't remember what it was. That thing should be in the hands of that Jiang Ming Gongzi, and only when I really see him can I understand something. Besides, you didn't want him to come, and in a way, I also obeyed your heart. ”
Shen Yi shouted angrily: "You are a devil, you let ordinary people be captured, and their hearts and eyes gouged out, if Jiang Ming comes here, can he leave alive? You let me go, and secretly manipulate my will, such an act, how can I trust you? You are a devil after all!"
The woman pursed her red lips lightly and said with a light smile: "I am extremely tolerant of you, I don't really want to kill you, just because I lack someone to speak." In the endless silence and disappearance, this crippled soul of mine is even more lonely, and has forgotten too many things, although I have the intention to retrieve my memory, but I have inadvertently accelerated the rate of decay of my soul. I still remember a man who once said to me that one heart and two eyes should see all the people. It is estimated that I have read too much, and I was ordered by this demon Peng, but as for the eyes of those mortals, it is useless to me. ”
Hearing this, a Dapeng orc standing on the side hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted: "My lord's life, it was the villain who misunderstood what you meant, and I ask my lord to give me a chance, I will definitely not disobey your orders again!"
The woman glanced at Demon Peng and said lightly: "Those people's hearts and eyes are probably used by you as a cultivator, right? However, it has nothing to do with me, come according to the rules! You still have ten seconds." ”
Demon Peng's hairs stood up, his body trembled violently, and he kept kowtowing and begging: "My lord, spare my life, spare my life, I promise that I will not dare to commit it again in the future, spare my life......"
The woman was unmoved, and said indifferently: "There are still eight seconds." ”
Hearing this, Demon Peng instantly looked around and found that these ugly-looking orcs were staring at him with bloodthirsty eyes, and that kind of expression was like the desire to look at their prey. He looked fierce, and then, with his wings spread, flew out of the cave in a gust of wind.
"It's time, go!" the woman waved her hand, but saw that a long fiery red whip appeared in front of each orc's eyes, and every time it touched the flesh of a living being, it would splash with scorching sparks, causing great trauma to the living creature in an instant. Hearing the woman's order, twenty or thirty orcs rushed out of the cave, flying or running, and within a few minutes, a sharp scream came from outside the cave, like a gray cloud, enveloping several barren mountains.
Shen Yi's eyes were cold, she knew this kind of rule, the demon peng whose strength had reached the peak of the ninth rank was probably divided by his former companions, and looking at the woman on the crystal stone seat, she couldn't help but feel a kind of fear from the heart.
"Who the hell are you?"
"I want to know too. Don't talk about this, talk about something else with me, my heart is empty, and I am afraid of loneliness. However, it is like a remnant soul that has no heart. ”
Shen Yi looked at this powerful and mysterious soul, and felt a deep sympathy, at least she still had a life, and such a friend who dared to help her, this soul, but she even forgot her name. At the same time, she is entangled, the fire puppet brand in her body restricts her movements, if Jiang Ming comes, she can't control the thoughts of this remnant soul woman at all, she has seen it with her own eyes, this beautiful and cold remnant soul woman waved her hand and killed a demon cultivator with a fivefold status, even if the so-called spearman is capable, how can he be her opponent?
"My friend, don't come!" Shen Yiwu recalled a few days ago, when she woke up by the river, in front of her was this remnant woman, she saved her, and left her after abusing many lives, a glance broke through the disguise of her man's body, and then said coldly, chat with me!
In Sui City, Jiang Ming still despised Dong Heng's enthusiasm for the eclipse exercises, and after his righteous promises, the two directly borrowed a thousand armor soldiers from Jing Haoran as gunmen, and they also wore battle armor and waited at the city gate with guns.
Kwai Ji received a letter from Yanzong at this time, it should be an urgent matter, although he also wanted to stay and help Jiang Ming, but after witnessing Jiang Ming's rapid recovery from injuries and the great help of the Gunman Sect, his own strength was a little weak and insignificant. Jiang Ming didn't want Kwai Cheng to get involved in this troubled water, so he persuaded her to leave, and made it clear that this was a private matter that was not dangerous, and with Dong Heng's help, nothing could be done. So Kwai Ji left overnight with the guards, and Jiang Ming took advantage of the cool dawn and walked out of Sui City.
Jiang Ming, Dong Heng, Zhu Ran and a thousand armor warriors plunged headlong into the barren mountains and continuous demon gathering places, countless demon beasts and demon cultivators were frightened away, and a puzzle plotted by the strong came to a climax in the battle. The storm is surging, not a game, the dark waves are turbulent, and there are endless mysteries inside.
