Chapter 22: Quicksand Covers the City
Sitting on Qi Qi in a picturesque manner, the three of them followed behind Qi Qi, staring at He Liqi who was walking in the front with indifferent eyes.
Shiruxiang bit her lip, her big watery eyes and bones were rolling, and she attached herself to Qi Qi's body and lay in her ear to communicate with her consciousness:
"Qiqi, you live old, can you tell me what you should do if you like someone?"
Qiqi puffed and gasped, his nostrils as big as a glass of water snorting, and he rolled his huge eyes.
"Didn't you give me to him as a mount, what else are you going to do?" Afraid that the people in front of him would hear it, Qi Qi also replied with consciousness.
Shi Ruhua coughed a few times in embarrassment, causing He Liqian to look back at her, and asked with raised eyebrows, Shi Ruhua shook her head, and was a little embarrassed to lie on Qi Qi, secretly annoyed.
A few people walked all the way, without flying in the air, after all, flying in the air in broad daylight would attract people's attention, and Yu Yi and Ji Li stared at each other a few times, Yu Yi nodded and stepped forward, walked on the side of Qi Qi, and asked in a low voice:
"Poet girl, who is in front of you? We look at you, every time we look at him, your face is red, is you sick and embarrassed to speak. ”
Shiruhua was even more embarrassed, burying his face, shaking his head, baring his teeth, showing his sharp teeth and humming and exhaling.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry, I'll just wait, he is the lord of the capital, you see him in the future, it's better to stay away."
Poetically waving his hands, his consciousness was a little short of breath, and he was not very embarrassed.
Only then did he nod and walked over to Yan Yu and whispered a few times, and the cold light flashed in his eyes and finally disappeared.
Approaching the evening, a group of people walked to the outskirts of the city not far from the capital, and before they could take a breath, they saw the people in the capital shouting to shake the sky, Shiruhua and others were surprised, they were all volleyed to inspect, only to see the boundless sky on the north side of the city wall rolling yellow sand swept in, overwhelming, the wind and sand were all over the sky, the people in the city suddenly felt that the air was hot, the mouth was dry, and in the blink of an eye, the overwhelming quicksand swept the wind and swirled rapidly and poured down.
The capital city suddenly fell into a burst of yellow sand, the crowd rioted, the cries shook the sky, the sky was covered by black fog, and the morning glow could no longer be seen.
The quicksand covered the entire capital like an endless veil, and the yellow sand rolled down, diffusing and overflowing with smoke.
He Liyu's face changed suddenly, and the faces of the silver wolf and the few people changed even more suddenly, and the quicksand storm struck again.
"What's wrong?" Poetic and picturesque, with consciousness, hurriedly asked Qiqi.
Qiqi's eyes widened, and he gasped for breath:
"Quicksand Storm, oh my God, what happened in the Land of Quicksand that caused the Quicksand Storm, I'm afraid, this capital will be destroyed in one fell swoop." Poor Qi shook his head.
He Liyu's face was dark, and he was full of murderous energy:
"The lady will contact the concubines in the city lord's mansion to open the city protection array, and the quicksand must not be allowed to destroy everything in the capital."
"Yes, sir!" The maid and the concubine dodged away.
The three of them walked to the picturesque side, all on guard, vigilantly looking at the quicksand in the capital, sweeping the sky, filled with gunsmoke, and they couldn't see the situation in the city clearly.
Poetic and picturesque, looking directly at the source of the quicksand, far away, only a little, standing on the back of Qi Qi, I saw that there was a black mist, soaring into the sky, and a pillar with black blood mist rushed straight into the air and circled.
He stood in the air, his face was extremely cold, and he also frowned slightly as he looked at the black blood mist pillar that rose into the air.
"There, there's something writhing around." Consciousness muttered to himself, and the light of Heliyu's eyes fell on her, and the bottom of his eyes became deeper.
"No, it's not something, it's coming out, rushing towards the capital." The picturesque consciousness was still talking to herself, and suddenly, her eyes changed suddenly, and she hurriedly fell to He Liyu's side, stretched out her hand, and her consciousness was urgent:
"Look, that thing is moving very fast, it's coming." Following the direction of her finger, she saw a cloud of black mist wrapped in something rushing towards the capital, and the black blood pillar moved with it, as if it was providing energy to the things in the black mist.
"My lord, there is a foreign object in the quicksand." The silver wolf opened his mouth with a shocked expression.
"Look, the black pillar of blood is a corpse, and it turns out to be a human corpse." Stunned, the black mist of the pillar of blood arrived above the capital to see clearly, since it was made of thousands of corpses, blood spurted out from the corpse to form a column of blood to supply the foreign matter in the quicksand.
A wriggling foreign body slowly stretched out in the quicksand, standing upright in mid-air, and everyone could see clearly that the foreign body was as thick as a mountain, thousands of meters long, and there were nine human heads, each of which sprayed clouds and mist, and one of them could actually spray water outward, and a stream of black water sprayed out, and suddenly saw the screams in the capital, the smell of water mist was strong, and the stench was overwhelming, and there was a human head while swallowing the clouds and mist while transporting corpses inside, and a large piece of blood mist was accompanied by clouds and mist, and the smell of blood filled a hundred miles, and the strong stench.
"Master, it turned out to be one of the fierce gods in ancient times, Xiangliu, this is troublesome." Qi Qi opened his mouth, since he has become Heliyu's mount, he must be honored as the master, otherwise, he will be punished by the Heaven and Earth Covenant.
"Xiangliu? It is a snake with nine heads, countless cannibals, everywhere it goes, it is a country, the water it spouts is more powerful than a flood, bitter and spicy, and it will kill Xiangliu if you eat it! The silver wolf was taken aback.
"Yes, but isn't it suppressed at the bottom of the blackwater? How did you get into the Land of Quicksand? "Qi Qi is also a little strange, with his survival for thousands of years, some of the problems that have long lost historical research, he still remembers clearly in his heart.
Suddenly, the capital was generous and colorful, the light shot continuously, and the four sides of the capital rose into the air, and the wisps of strange colors covered the violently churning quicksand, as well as the quicksand that rushed into the city like a flood.
Seeing this, the nine human heads roared and shook the sky, the blood mist was more intense, the blood pillar soared into the sky, and the rotation was even more powerful, a large area of blood mist accompanied by the corpse and the broken flesh rolled into the city with the quicksand, and the water with venom was surging from mid-air like a flood opening the floodgates, pouring down, flooding the capital, the people in the capital screamed for a while, one by one the corpses were vacated, and it was too late to struggle and fall into the mouths of the nine heads, clicking and chewing for a while, the blood rolled down the corners of the human head and mouth like big water, and the bone slag floated all over the sky.
"Demons!" The poetic and picturesque consciousness snorted angrily, and the fierceness in his eyes appeared, like a wolf's eyes staring at the Xiangliu hovering in the sky.
He Liyu grabbed her and whispered coldly:
"Don't act rashly."
The four sides of the city are colorful, the light radiates, in an instant, the quicksand in the city is floating in the air and no trace falls, and the water with venom in the city is also slowly floating under the quicksand, a little bit of erosion of the colorful light, the blood in the capital is flowing into a river, corpses are everywhere, although, the four sides of the color hold up the quicksand and water, but in order to resist the erosion of the water, its light is also gradually weakening.
"My lord, the city protection array can't support it for long, Xiangliu is an ancient fierce god, and his mana is monstrous, what should I do if I change it?"
He Liyu was silent, contemplated for a moment, raised his right hand, and a ray of red light rushed into the sky, disappearing above the palace in the City Lord's Mansion.
The nine heads looked at He Liyu in unison, and one of them laughed strangely:
"Hey, hey, hey. I didn't think that there were people from the wolf clan here, I heard that eating the corpse of the wolf clan can make the body as hard as iron, like a copper wall and iron wall, no mana can be harmed, and the blood is even more energetic, and the mana of the person or demon is stronger and stronger, boy, Xiangye, I am happy today, and I will slaughter my predecessor obediently. ”
"As long as you have that ability!" He Liyun put his hands behind his back and spoke coldly.
"Haha. Xiangye, I have lived for more than 10,000 years, and I haven't eaten the flesh and blood of the wolf clan for a long time. Before the words fell, venom erupted from the mouths of the nine heads, shooting into the air like a flood towards Heliyu.
Qi Qi was shocked, and jumped to both sides with a picturesque picture, avoiding the venom dangerously, and the three of them followed behind Qi Qi, their bodies like electricity.
He Li Yu and the silver wolf took off, He Li Yu's wide water sleeve became like half of the wall covering the air, 'whew' fanned, the red light soared into the air, blazing, a blazing breath swept the venom in the sky, the venom fell to the ground, the dust shrank, even drier, cracked, any plant instantly withered, withered and turned into a piece of ashes.
One of the nine human heads groaned, and then roared and roared, and the black mist sprayed out of his mouth wrapped around He Liyu like a snake, He Liyu pushed away the silver wolf with one palm, pinched his fingers, and the red light flashed on his fingertips, and he pointed his fingers in the air, and the air exploded again and again, faintly floating, and instantly cracked a gap, and the black fog was instantly engulfed, Xiang Liu was shocked, and the nine human heads roared together, and the roar shook the sky, and since he hurriedly covered his ears, there were bloodshots oozing from his mouth and nose, and his mind was a little unstable.
"Calm your mind and protect your mind." He Liyu snorted, his fingers connected in the air, the nine human heads shook in unison, their teeth and claws, the huge snake body twisted and twisted, slapping in mid-air, the city walls shattered, the houses collapsed, the human voices screamed, the boiling abnormal, and the colorful light in all directions became weaker and weaker.
Others are surging with blood and heart, but the poetry and picturesque are indeed as stable as Mount Tai, and they have not been affected at all.
Raising his eyes to look at He Liyun, his face was a little pale, his tall body was still standing still, Shiruhua was a little distressed, his fierce eyes swept towards Xiang Liu, his teeth were slightly bared, his five fingers were bent, and his wolf-like eyes flashed with a strange green light.
At the same time, above the palace in the capital, the clouds were surging, and a long sword shot straight out from the sky above the palace, the sword god was surrounded by golden light, and the cold air at the tip of the sword was pressing, breaking through the clouds, and with a long roar, it shot towards Xiangliu.
Condensing the mana of the whole body, the poetry stood on the back of Qi Qi picturesquely, his hands were staggered, and he slammed into the place where Xiang Liu had seven knots in one fell swoop, there was a fist wind in front of him, and an ancient sword in the back, coupled with the space of He Liqi, Xiang Liu was finally furious, and the nine heads roared in unison, and the huge snake body smashed heavily into Qi Qi.
Qiqi roared, dodged again and again, flapped his wings, the mountain shook the ground, the sky was full of stones and smashed nine heads, and the quicksand rolled, like a waterfall covering the sky to block the mountain rocks.
The ancient sword slashed, bringing an earth-shattering roar, a sword came, radiant, stinging people's eyes, everyone closed their eyes, the sword slashed through the middle of the nine human heads, bringing up a shocking ghost crying wolf howl, the huge snake body rolled in the air, twisted, and a picturesque punch hit the snake body seven knots,' Bang' The blood mist filled the sky, the snake body was confined and convulsed, the nine heads of Xiangliu struggled and roared with resentful eyes, the quicksand rolled up, and the blood column piled up by the corpses instantly flooded Xiangliu, and the venom of the water above the four directions instantly flowed backwards, wrapping the quicksand and quickly swept into the distance.
The ancient sword slashed past and swirled in the air on He Liyu's head, falling wisps of light around him.
Shiruhua punched out, exhausted his spirit, saw that He Liqi was unharmed, smiled slightly, his eyes were dark, and he no longer had any sense, and fell from Qi Qi's body.
The three of them exclaimed in surprise and pounced on her in the air, and He Liyu was faster than them, moving to her side in the blink of an eye to catch the falling delicate body and hug her in her arms.
In the sky above the capital, four people jumped in the air.
"My lord, my subordinates are not effective in protecting the city, please punish them." The night cultivator and the concubine stood respectfully with their heads bowed.
He Liyu hugged the poetry and picturesque, there was no color on his cold face, his deep eyes stared at the direction of Xiang Liu's departure, and commanded in a low voice:
"Mobilize manpower to investigate the land of quicksand and the black water realm overnight, and find out what caused the troubled times of Xiangliu."
"Yes, the subordinates will find out the truth as soon as possible." The grandmother turned and walked away.
Qi Qi retracted his wings and landed beside He Liyun, He Liyu jumped to his back and sat down without saying a word, the space change just now made his mana exhausted, and now he has no strength at all, barely supporting in front of several people.
The three of them stared at each other for a moment, and the cold light flashed, and then they returned to their usual colors.
"Command, go down and renovate the capital overnight, so that the people in the city have a place to live in peace."
"Yes, sir." He turned and walked away.
"Go home!" Qi Qi took off into the air, He Liyu was anxious, the old wound was not healed, and a new injury was added, this time it was even more energetic, and the body was seriously damaged, I am afraid that it will not be able to cultivate for half a year.
Thinking of this, he glanced up at the ancient sword hovering above his head and was hidden by the light, and secretly made a decision in his heart.
Back in the city lord's mansion, He Liyu instructed Ye Xiu to take Qi Qi and Yang Yu to the backyard to rest, and he directly held He Liyu and jumped out of the palace in the back mountain, the ancient sword roared, the light flickered, and rushed into the palace with a whoosh and disappeared.
Outside the palace, surrounded by trees, around the main hall, the ancient trees are towering, the green trees are shady, the red walls and yellow tiles, the surrounding city walls are towering, a solemn and solemn, the palace is like a behemoth standing.
The gate of the palace slowly opened, and there was a rumbling sound, and He Liyu walked into the hall with a picturesque unconscious poem, and the door of the palace behind him slowly closed.
A cold breath rushed, in front, the ghost fire was lit, the hall was empty, four bronze iron pillars stood in all directions, the dragon carving on the top of the hall was lifelike.
In front of the main hall, there is a water trough, the two ends are connected to the ground, two bronze figurines stand on both sides, holding glass lamp holders, and the ghostly light of the merman's anointment burning is shaking in the empty and somewhat dark hall.
In front of the sink, a futon is placed on the ground, and on top of the futon, an old man with a sixtieth armor sits.
"You're here!" The old voice echoed in the hall.
Gently put the poetry on the ground, He Liyu knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice:
"Old lady, save her."
"She's the woman you brought back?" The old lady's wrinkled face was forced to squeeze out a smile, as if it was covered with a layer of dried bean skin, and the horizontal and vertical lines were paved all over the face.
He Liyun nodded and looked up at the old man sitting on the futon, like an old man who would fall down when the wind blew.
"Old lady, she has a life ring on her body, and she can't die."
Hearing these three words, the old man's eyes burst into light, he opened his hand and inhaled, and the picturesque little body crossed and moved in front of the old man.
Looking at the picturesque poet who fell into a coma, the old lady took a deep breath, and a flash of excitement flashed next to her lowered face, and then quickly disappeared.
"Since the life is around her, of course you can't die."
The five fingers opened, and a celadon blue bottle suddenly appeared in the palm of the hand, the cork was opened, and a crystal clear white pill slowly emerged from it, the pill rose into the air, flashed light, and floated on the Shiruhua's body, and instantly fell a piece of white light enveloping the whole body, and then, Shiruhua automatically opened its small mouth, and the white pill quickly melted after falling into the mouth.
"This is a 'Hui Jin Dan' made of thousands of rare and exotic herbs, which can make her body recover her skills quickly, you don't need to worry, she has taken the 'Immortal Fruit' and can't die."
Immortal fruit? He Liyu was secretly shocked, the immortal fruit is the immortal tree of the immortal mountain, it blooms for a thousand years, bears fruit for a thousand years, and matures for a thousand years to produce ten fruits, which is a panacea that the world dreams of.
Shiruxiang actually ate this fruit, that must be worry-free, He Liyu was secretly happy in his heart, and his face was still as plain as water.
"She's not small, okay, you can take her away." The old lady waved his hand, and the poetry moved to the front of He Liyu, He Liyu
