Chapter 20: The Soul of a Mountain That Stretches for a Hundred Miles
At this time, Lin Xiao's divine sense swept to a cave, he really couldn't imagine that there was such a hidden cave here. Lin Xiao took a deep breath and cautiously walked towards the cave mansion.
The midnight in the mountains was even cooler, and the surrounding area was silent. Lin Xiao could only hear the sound of his own gasping breathing and slow and slight footsteps, but at this moment, suddenly a silver light was like a sharp sword, breaking through the air towards him.
In a hurry, Lin Xiao was able to dodge, but he was also frightened, and the most important thing was that he didn't know what it was and how powerful it was.
"Be careful, this evil thing is like a snake, but it can not only bite your body, but also devour your soul!" At this time, Mo Xu's voice resounded in Lin Xiao's mind.
Lin Xiao was even more frightened when she heard this, the external injury didn't matter, but the soul was hopeless.
I saw that the silver light turned abruptly, and the body rushed towards Lin Xiao again, and there was a hissing sound in the air, which was particularly harsh in this quiet cave. At this time, the strange snake-shaped beast seemed to have spirituality, and when it saw that several attacks were ineffective, it no longer attacked blindly, and coiled on the stone pillar on the side, its scarlet eyes emitted a thick red mist like a gem, which was particularly eye-catching. staring at Lin Xiao coldly, making people shudder.
"Old thing, find a way! This evil thing is too fast! If you do it a few more times, I'll be finished, and you won't be able to run away then!"
Lin Xiao was really anxious, the more this thing stared at herself and didn't attack, the more she was furious and scared, as if this thing was going to slowly break down her psychological defense. It seemed to be waiting for work, waiting for an opportunity for Lin Xiao's psychology to relax, and then deliver a fatal blow.
"You let it go, and then look for an opportunity to kill it!"
At the moment when Lin Xiao let go of his heart, the snake-like evil creature attacked again. But at this moment, I don't know what kind of means Mo Xuan used, Lin Xiao felt that the speed of the evil thing was greatly reduced, and with the integration of the old thing's powerful divine sense, Lin Xiao instantly saw the attack trajectory of the evil thing.
Just as Lin Xiao was dodging, there was suddenly an extra dagger in his hand. After a quick slash, the evil creature roared violently, broke into two pieces and fell to the ground, and died in a short time, the red light in its eyes was gone. Lin Xiao observed for a while and made sure that the evil thing was dead, only to find that although the appearance of this evil thing was similar to that of a python, it had fin-like things on its back, like a fish and a snake.
After making sure that there was no danger, Lin Xiao exhaled a heavy breath, "Whew! Damn, I'm scared to death!"
"Quick! Find something. Mo Xu's tone was short, and Lin Xiao thought that it might be the reason for the consumption just now.
At this time, Lin Xiaocai took out his mobile phone without any scruples, then turned on the mobile phone light and began to inspect the cave in front of him.
After some exploration, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature, and couldn't imagine that there was such a cave in the belly of this mountain! At this time, Lin Xiao faintly heard the sound of 'tick tick' water hammer, although the sound of water was weak, but all around it were mountain walls and rocks, and there was no sound here, so it was very real and clear.
Lin Xiao followed the sound, tossing and turning, only to find that there was a spring pool inside the cave. The water of the pond is extremely clear, and there is a boulder protruding from the water in the center of the pond, and there is a bead suspended on the boulder that exudes a faint blue light, which is the size of an egg, crystal clear.
"Sure enough, as the deity expected, heaven and earth are natural, and all things have spirits! However, this kind of practice is too vicious and violates the way of heaven, and it will be destroyed by form and spirit!" Mo Xuan sighed in a low voice and said in a deep voice.
"This ...... What is this bead?" Lin Xiao estimated that this was the ultimate fruit of victory, but he didn't know what it was.
"Take a closer look at it!"
Saying that, Lin Xiao took a few more steps forward, and his divine sense swept over. At this time, Lin Xiao's eyes widened suddenly, looking incredible. He found that the cyan beads were not emitting light, but those green rays like light wisps of smoke, like hair, wandering ethereally, all slowly gathering towards the cyan beads, and then completely merging into the beads.
"This ...... I feel like a trickle of silk, with some kind of energy, is it vitality?"
Mo Xuan snorted coldly, and then said with unprecedented solemnity: "Vitality? This is something more terrible than vitality, if the vitality is gone, it can be slowly cultivated and recovered, but if the soul is gone, it is a dead end!"
Lin Xiao's body was shocked, although he still had some doubts, but he also vaguely felt that the truth would make people feel frightened, "Vitality, soul, is it...... Whose is it?"
"This mountain is also the ...... of this mountain that stretches for hundreds of miles"
Lin Xiao's heart roared again, what kind of person actually had such a skill, it was shocking! Gradually, Lin Xiao thought about it and was extremely frightened, no wonder so many animals had died outside the cave...... They are defending their homeland! Heaven is natural, and all things have spirits, which makes Lin Xiao feel something, and at the same time, he is full of awe.
"Old thing, are you saying that someone is extracting the soul of the mountain here, what if the mountain has no soul?"
Mo Xuan was silent for a while, and said: "If there is no mountain soul, there will be no grass and the mountain will collapse!
Lin Xiao can imagine that if there is no longer vegetation growing in the mountains, then those who rely on the mountains to eat the mountains will no longer be able to get the gifts of the mountains. Those who have lived at the foot of the mountain for generations may one day be drowned by landslides or mudslides. The animals that thrive in the mountains may be wiped out......
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao's heart was full of resentment, no matter who wanted to extract the mountain soul here, no matter how powerful that person was. At this moment, Lin Xiao did not retreat at all, and the cold glint in her firm eyes was revealed.
"Go, this Qiyao Condensing Soul Array doesn't have any attack, just take off the Mountain Soul Bead, and everything will be completely over!" Mo Xu's voice resounded, brushing away the last worry in Lin Xiao's heart.
Then, Lin Xiao roared, and the tiger's body suddenly jumped onto the boulder in the pool, and his movements were skillful and fast. Lin Xiao stood on the stone platform, no longer hesitated, held the mountain soul bead in his hand, and his hand was smooth and round, although the coolness was heavy, it made people feel refreshed. The moment Lin Xiao took off the Mountain Soul Bead, he destroyed the formation, and the originally crystal clear bead suddenly flashed, the light was not there, and it completely blended into the darkness. At this time, Lin Xiao felt a kind of sorrow and a trace of pity......
"The kid knows what you're thinking, and the deity can tell you clearly, impossible! Even if you don't want this mountain soul bead, this condensed mountain soul can't disperse and return to the mountain on its own! You don't have to mind, you don't have to feel guilty, if there is a spirit in this mountain, she will only be grateful to you...... Besides, this is the cause planted by others, and the cycle of heavenly principles, even if there are evil consequences, it has nothing to do with you. It was you who prevented this catastrophe from happening, it was you who redeemed this mountain, you ...... Got it?"
Lin Xiao sighed, as if he had an understanding, and then put away the Mountain Soul Bead. Out of the cave, Mo Xuan instructed Lin Xiao to destroy all the purple flowers. It turns out that those flowers can play a hallucinogenic role in humans or animals. is used by people with intentions, and it forms a kind of magic circle, which can hook people's souls and detain them here. And that evil thing relied on this array, devouring people's souls and killing living beings.
This also explains why Grandma Meng's body is on the mountain, but her soul brings Lin Xiao here. Come to think of it, it's because of this formation.
"There's one thing I don't understand. Why haven't I been hallucinated by this formation?
Mo Xuan said in a deep voice: "Yes, anyone who comes here will be hallucinated and hooked here! It is impossible to get out of the whole body, but you can! Just because the pendant around your neck ......"
At this time, Lin Xiao lowered his head and pinched the purple tripod pendant, and then said, "Also, the things you want have been found for you...... Don't forget what you promised me!"
Mo Xuan laughed out loud and said, "Don't worry, boy, the deity has always been a good word! But before that, you have to find a good goblin thing, to put it bluntly, it is a piece of jade!"
Lin Xiao frowned slightly, and said, "Jade, what kind of jade?"
At this time, Mo Xuan was silent for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The jade unicorn on your third uncle's desk, the jade quality can barely ......"
"What? That jade unicorn is the third uncle's heart, if I take it away, the third uncle will not have to eat me alive! No, no......" Lin Xiao knew that the unicorn on the third uncle's desk had been in his memory for some years, and since Lin Xiao remembered, the jade unicorn was in his memory. Although he didn't know anything about the screening of jade, he also knew that the unicorn was carved from jadeite, which was very valuable. But no matter what, he didn't dare to covet the third uncle's things, thinking about the third uncle's means of punishing himself when he was a child, Lin Xiao shuddered.
"Whatever you want, but it's up to you to find jade. The deity is going to retreat, when will you get the jade, come back to me!"
After that, let Lin Xiao keep cursing, and Mo Xuan stopped talking.
When Lin Xiao got home again, it was already four o'clock in the morning. No matter what, Lin Qingyi's illness finally has a glimmer of hope, although what happened last night was a little unbelievable, but it was also thrilling. For Lin Xiao, it is also cost-effective to find a way to cure her sister's illness!
