Chapter 171: Joining forces
"And then, Ah Ci, did you get caught by that thing? were you swallowed?"
He Curly raised his eyebrows again and again, and looked at the person opposite with his hands clenched into fists with a nervous face. Really, why did he stop at the critical moment, Ah Ci is really appetizing.
"If I was swallowed, would you still be able to see me now?" Mu Xici pulled the corners of his mouth and asked instead of answering.
"I haven't been swallowed...... "He Juan scroll's 'ah' flip is extremely long, and the tail note turns three times before it slowly closes up. It seemed that the other party did not have an accident, which made her very disappointed.
"Why, do you really want something to happen to me. ”
"That can't, that can't. He Juan smiled doggedly, and hurriedly waved his hand and asked with a look of hope: "What about later? Was the monster killed?"
Looking at the other party's face full of curiosity, Mu Xiqi endured it for a long time before he didn't break through.
This He Fat Girl came to her today, originally to visit the patient and inquire about the situation. After all, when the accident happened, the other party hid and didn't know anything about the ten days.
Who knew that after just asking the beginning, He Juanjuan's mind was all on how ugly and capricious the monster looked, how could it not get in the way when the knife was fighting, did the group of crying female cultivators have a headache later, and did Miss Su finally take down Huayi's heart.
Gossip stories like this, asking Mu Xici wanted to cut off his robe with the other party.
Sitting on the stone bench, Mu Xici held a teacup and drank tea without a pair, as if he didn't plan to speak again.
He Juan saw that the other party didn't want to deal with her, and knew that he had just shown too much. After thinking hard for a long time, he proposed weakly: "Ah Ci." If you don't tell me what's going on, how can I help you find a cure? It's not a small problem with this sense. ”
Holding the cup in his hand, Mu Xici looked at the water on the teacup, and his eyes were faintly sad. Thinking back to the scene two years ago, there are already exclamations in my ears.
"At that time, I was actually caught by that monster......"
The monster's four tentacles actually caught her. It's just that she was on guard at that time, so she took the first step to hide the talisman seal with the Buddha seal in her hand.
So when the four pitch-black sticky tentacles wrapped around her, Mu Xici immediately backhanded the talisman seal.
The power of the rune seal is much worse than the previous effect on dealing with those small mist. But it's not all useless. At least the agitated monster subconsciously flicked its tentacles. Throw her out.
It's just that when Mu Xici reacted, her back had already hit the trunk of the tree solidly, and the force of the impact was so strong that the thousand-year-old trunk was directly concave into the half-human shape.
"Ahem. Moving his arm, Mu Xici's forehead was faintly dripping with fine sweat. The monster's power was much greater than she had imagined.
She had thought that the monster had been transformed into mist. At most, he is good at speed and swallowing. I didn't expect even the power to be so great. No wonder few people caught by the tentacles escape.
If it weren't for the blessing of the defensive talisman, she would have broken a few bones on her back. On this battlefield, you can't be negligent for a moment.
After landing, she didn't rush again. After a while, she still planned to find Tingshuang and try to deal with this monster together. But before that, she had a personal matter to confirm.
When she ran into Huayi before, she was in trouble, so she had to join the battle with a quick glance. Now that Huayi is entangled and can't get out, she can't cause trouble and disputes, so she naturally does what she cares about the most.
Using the aura to protect the wounds on his back, Mu Xici walked around the other side of the main battlefield with the aura and walked around with the aura in small steps.
However, this half of the battlefield is much calmer than the main battlefield. There were no overturned trees, no swords fighting, only a few disciples meditating and healing.
Even so, it took her a lot of effort to find Li Tianxing hidden behind the tree.
"Senior Brother Li, he ......"
Li Tianxing was in a nervous state of preparing for battle, and even almost threw the magic weapon, but his face was relieved after seeing the person coming: "Senior Sister Mu, Li is fortunate not to be dishonored." ”
As soon as he turned around, he pulled out a dagger from his wrist, and in a flash of cold light, he plunged it deep into the ancient wood that he had been leaning on for a long time.
Because the other party had his back to her, Mu Xici didn't see Li Tianxing's methods clearly. I just felt that the other party had found a few positions on the trees and counted them.
As the dagger was drawn, the gray-brown bark as solid as copper and iron slipped silently, and a figure covered in evil aura fell to the ground without support.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Li. This kindness is remembered by the younger sister. Mu Xici looked at the person lying on the ground with a complicated expression. She knew she didn't need or need to leave this person behind, but she made up her mind before leaving.
She wanted to know the truth.
The truth of the year was very important to her, or to her mother. If you can't find the truth and can't correct the name of the pair of parents who are connected by blood, your mother will not be at ease.
"Senior Sister Mu doesn't have to thank me. You saved me twice, and asked Zhou Daoyou to maneuver around during this period, so as to avoid my danger. I hid here to recuperate and heal, and I still relied on the blessing of Senior Sister Mu. ”
Slowly moving his gaze away from Mu Xitian's face, the corners of Mu Xici's mouth moved, and he still saluted Li Tianxing gratefully.
Mu Xitian is the culprit who caused everyone to fall into passivity, it is rare to be able to keep him from dying, but I didn't expect Senior Brother Li to hide him here intact. If the other party doesn't say it, Mu Xici can also imagine how difficult and complicated this process is.
Saving lives is nothing but humility. The world is impermanent, and the other party is willing to help you, and it is the duty not to help you. From this point of view, Mu Xici is very grateful to Li Tianxing.
The two did not have much politeness, and briefly exchanged what they had seen and heard in the past few days. It's just that after listening to it, Mu Xici's heart sank uncontrollably.
The situation at the station was even worse than she had imagined.
Although she guessed that Tingshuang and the others might continue to use the disciples of the Spirit Heart Pavilion as bait, once the pattern was discovered, everyone would definitely take turns to lure the monster and try to ensure that as many people survived as possible.
But the fact is that the disciples of the Spirit Heart Pavilion have fed those gray mist one by one. When everyone should not be comfortable, they chose to escape. As a result, everyone fell into the dilemma of relying on the formation.
I'm afraid, there are more drawbacks than that.
The worried thing was settled, Mu Xici didn't delay any longer, and entrusted Mu Xitian to Li Tianxing, and she continued to travel along the station to find Tingshuang's figure.
After the formation of that monster, the gray sub-void realm ushered in extremely subtle changes.
The evil qi flowing on the ground began to become thinner and thinner, and the interference of divine consciousness also decreased with the change of evil qi, and the voices and faces of the disciples a few zhang away were already distinct, and even the fluctuations of the falling leaves could be felt clearly.
This change is both gratifying and frightening. It seems to be calm before the storm, and in the darkness, there is an even greater storm coming.
Mu Xici, who was searching around, happened to see a female cultivator with a somewhat familiar face. The other side sat pale on his knees under an ancient tree away from the crowd. Most of the blood was already stained on the plain white Shuiyun Pavilion disciple's clothes, and the injuries on his arms seemed to be more serious.
It was mainly because the aura fluctuations were a little abnormal that they caught her attention.
However, because she was in a hurry to find someone, she hurried away with only a cursory glance.
On the other side, Tingshuang, who had high hopes, stood motionless in a safe place and quietly watched the battle. She is not good at fighting, and because she majored in speciality, she was protected alone.
"This ...... Listen to the frost...... Have you figured out how to deal with this monster? Senior Brother Bai, they are about to lose their hold anymore. ”
The person next to her had been nagging for nearly a quarter of an hour since he stood on her left. In this quarter of an hour, the man's tone ranged from confidence to panic to hysteria and finally to begging.
If you are a person with poor concentration, I am afraid that you are already crazy at this moment. Even if the concentration is good, it is estimated that it is on the verge of going crazy or not.
But Tingshuang didn't seem to hear it, closed her eyes tightly, and even restrained her breathing.
This state of affairs finally changed when Mu Xici arrived. Because Tingshuang's eyes suddenly opened, and a pair of pupils looked straight at the visitor. "You have a way to crack it. ”
"It's not a way to crack it, but I just thought of a way to try it. Mu Xici came to Tingshuang in three or two steps, easily dodged Zheng Shu's sword, and handed over the talisman seal with the Buddha seal.
After seeing the Buddha seal on the talisman, Tingshuang's heavy pupils moved, and his face was faintly loose. The hoarse voice was slightly surprised and urgent: "What are you going to do?"
"Nature is ......"
The time of the two teas passed in a flash.
Zheng Shu was ordered to deliver the message, and he was also amazed when he entered the battle. There are not many disciples who can fight monsters and still have their strength in the field, counting and counting, adding up to less than ten.
But these few can be regarded as the elite of the three factions.
He originally thought that if he could survive, including Senior Brother Bai and Senior Sister Ling, there would be no more than five people at most. It's just that now it seems that the people of Shuiyun Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion are not bad.
Looking at the monster again, it made him unconsciously shrug his nose.
Two of the monster's four tentacles were broken, and the remaining two weren't as nimble and powerful as they had been at first. After there were no disciples to devour, he didn't grow in size, but his appearance was still very ugly and capricious, black and black, and the hideous disciple's faces flashed on it from time to time, which made people look very uncomfortable.
"Senior Brother Bai. Tingshuang has found a way to crack it, let's lure the monster over. Zheng Shu didn't dare to fight the monster head-on, dodged left and right, used other artificial shields, and slowly flew to Bai Qi's side.
"Okay, good!" Bai Qi said three good words in a row, stood the long knife at his side, and shouted at the remaining three people in the Imperial Sword Pavilion, "Go!"
While he shouted, his figure did not pause at all, grabbed Zheng Shu's collar, and flew towards the place pointed by the other party. (To be continued.) )
