Chapter 50: Strength retreats, and the four spirits are occluded
For the next three months, Liumu lay in prison to recuperate, and during this time, the pain of tearing flesh and blood in his body gradually decreased the number of recurrences, and slowly his body also regained his mobility.
On this day, Liumu sat quietly on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, and his breath was even.
After a while, feeling that everything in his body had reached the best state at present, Liumu slowly opened his eyes, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I haven't cultivated for nearly 100 days, and my body has actually regressed to this point. ”
Liumu shook his head helplessly, and said in a low voice.
The innate nine spirits are originally more difficult to open than the ordinary nine spirits, unlike the ordinary nine spirits, you don't need to continue to pay attention to them after they are opened, and the disadvantage of the innate nine spirits is that they need to be constantly consolidated and recuperated every day.
After three months of not stabilizing the Eight Spirits, the four acupuncture points in Liumu's body have been occluded, and the power of resentment is close to exhaustion, at this time, his combat power is pitiful.
"I'll have to start all over again.."
Liumu patted the dust on his body and said speechlessly.
Bang bang..
The match burned not far away, and the scorching heat filled the small space, and a wonderful body sat beside the fire, quietly watching the flames.
His eyes were blank, and he didn't know that the food in his hand had been burned, and Liumu turned his head to look at Zhou Qing, his heart moving slightly.
got up and walked to Zhou Qing's side, took her hand, took the food in his hand, and smiled slightly.
"What's wrong, what's on your mind?"
Liumu didn't let go of Zhou Qing's hand and asked gently.
Suddenly feeling the tenderness of the palm, Zhou Qingqiao's face flushed slightly, struggled slightly, and did not break away, then raised his face to look at the driftwood.
Da..
But she didn't want to, this upturned face, a tear dripped from her clear eyes, crossed the delicate face, and fell on the back of Liumu's hand.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing turned his head away, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then looked at the driftwood and smiled.
"It's fine. ”
She shook her head lightly and said.
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Liumu looked solemn, obviously not planning to let her go.
Here, it's hard to say that there are only two of them alive, and they have experienced life and death disasters, if they can't rely on each other, Liumu will feel very uncomfortable in his heart.
Zhou Qing's expression froze, he didn't expect Liumu to be so stubborn.
She naturally understood what Liumu was thinking in her heart, and the warmth flowed in her heart, she moved her body, sat down next to Liumu, silently took Liumu's hand, and held it in her heart.
"I miss my father, they must be worried about me. ”
Zhou Qing's tone was very low, and the white and tender palm also clenched Liumu's hand.
Liumu quietly listened to her tell the sadness in her heart, at this time, she was in danger, life and death were uncertain, and it was naturally her family who missed her the most.
Hearing this, Liumu didn't know how to comfort him, and when he mentioned his parents, maybe he should be even more depressed.
However, he knows better that now is not the time to be sentimental and sad, and sad emotions can affect a person's judgment and make him indecisive.
As the backbone of the heart, Liumu knew the truth very well, and his smile immediately softened.
"It's okay, we're alive and will definitely get out. He comforted.
Liumu's palm caressed Zhou Qing's green silk, hoping to help Zhou Qing relieve his suppressed emotions.
"Hmm. ”
Zhou Qing nodded.
Feeling Liumu's firm tone, Zhou Qingyan smiled, and then also cheered up and sat up straight.
So, she stopped mentioning the sad things, and changed the conversation to the things in front of her.
"Are you alright?"
Liumu shook his head helplessly and said, "The injuries on my body are basically no big deal, but you also know the innate nine spirits, and my strength has regressed a lot now." ”
Zhou Qing's face was a little hesitant, and his eyes were full of worry.
Zhou Qing was naturally clear about the situation of the innate nine spirits, and the flowing wood had not been consolidated for nearly three months, so it was reasonable for the nine spirits to be occluded.
At this point, he suffered heavy blows from Wang Tian and the Golden Demon, and he could only lie down to nourish his body, and the regression of his strength was also predictable.
"The most troublesome thing is the mass of blood left by the golden devil in my body, which often erodes my body, which is difficult to entangle. ”
Quickwood thought for a moment and said again.
Although Liumu didn't regain consciousness before, he still felt pain faintly.
"That's corpse poison, and the sudden increase in the strength of the golden demon may also be because of this corpse poison. ”
Zhou Qingliu's eyebrows were also frowned, and then he took out a few animal skins from the ring, which were densely written with words, and looked at the flowing wood and stretched out his hand to hand it over.
"Corpse poison?" Liumu said as he took the hide, his mouth puzzled.
Zhou Qing nodded seriously.
She had already seen the contents of these animal skins, so when Liumu said that there was something unusual about her background, she immediately said her name.
"This seems to be a map of the General's Grave, where did you get it?"
Driftwood looked at the pattern of the first animal skin and was amazed, because it actually described his location in detail.
Zhou Qing smiled slightly, picked up a bunch of food next to the fire, and continued to barbecue.
Then he said, "I've always been much more sober than you." ”
Liumu also slapped his head when he heard this, thinking about it, he had been delirious for so long, and these things could only be discovered by her.
Immediately, Liumu said no more and continued to check the contents of the hide.
Flipping through the map made of unknown animal skins, the expression on Liumu's face began to change, especially when he saw the information about corpse poison on the second one, and the sad mood on his face suddenly dissipated.
"Looks like we don't deserve to die!"
Liumu's face was full of joy, he turned to look at Zhou Qing, suddenly hugged him in his arms, and couldn't help but shout out a sentence in his mouth.
"Hmm.."
Zhou Qingqiao's face was slightly red, and she let her hug her.
It turned out that this corpse poison was the same as the prohibition of enslaving prisoners in Tianming City, and it was a higher-level prohibition used to contain labor.
Corpse poison, taken from the western part of the Heavenly Spirit Continent, is a venom of the Ten Thousand Snake King, the venom of the Ten Thousand Snake King has the vitality to erode the ingestor, and it can erode the vitality of the person in a short period of time, and finally turn into a pile of white bones.
After the refining of the pharmacist, the toxicity of the venom was alleviated a little, and the erosive power of the life force was much weaker, but it was still more than enough to enslave labor.
"A person who can refine such a Gu poison will definitely have the strength to the sky. Quickwood looked at the description on the hide, and his eyes became solemn.
Hearing this, Zhou Qing put down the food in his hand, nodded slightly, and said: "Ten Thousand Snake King, the Nine Rank Beast Clan, this level of spirit beast is already psychic, and can obtain the venom of this beast clan, I believe that the strength of the master of the General's Tomb is not weak." ”
Indeed, for what Zhou Qing said, Liumu still agrees with it in his heart.
However, he was more interested in the corpse poison.
Because, from the subsequent description, he knew that the corpse poison not only has the effect of eroding the life force, but also has the effect of increasing the strength of the poisoned person in a short period of time, as well as the strength of the divine consciousness.
"It's strange, if it's for the sake of enslavement labor, why do you want to increase the strength of these people?" Liumu was slightly surprised.
Zhou Qing didn't care about Liumu's question, as the daughter of the city lord of Tianming City, she naturally had some way to resist soldiers.
Immediately, she expressed her understanding, she said: "It may be that the amount of work in the place where the general is buried is huge, and it is difficult to complete the ordinary coolies, so this is the most effective way to improve the strength of the coolies and speed up the completion of his shelter." ”
In fact, the real reason is indeed this.
"Forget it, don't think about it. ”
After hearing Zhou Qing's story, Liumu's head grew for a while.
The stories of the dead are left to them, and the driftwood is most concerned about how to remove the corpse poison.
Immediately, Liumu continued to check the information on the animal skin, it is said that the corpse poison was planted here, and there should be a way to remove it here.
"These places don't seem to be the original ones on the map, but they are like the markings that were made later. ”
Liumu looked up at the map and looked up at a few places marked with red circles.
"It should have been painted by the Golden Devil, after all, he was also poisoned by corpses. Zhou Qing said.
Liumu immediately looked happy, it is true, it seems that this golden demon still has some effect.
After that, the two of them made a detailed plan to start, and it was definitely impossible to leave the general's grave for the time being, so it was better to do what they could do first.
Half an hour later, the prison fell silent again, Zhou Qing had turned over and slept next to the fire, while Liumu was thinking on the side.
Lifting the sleeves, the pale and rough arm looked terrifying, but Liumu was not afraid in the slightest, and reached out to brush his arm carefully.
"Give me a month, and I'll be able to open the Eight Spirits again. ”
Driftwood suddenly clenched his fists, his face resolute.
...
Tianming City
Zhou Qing's face was a little ugly, and when he looked at the sturdy middle-aged man in front of him, a wave of anger surged into his chest.
The old man in white also frowned when he heard this, and then said: "The Wang family has obviously expected it, and at this time, sticking to his own chassis just doesn't want to have excessive consumption. ”
Hum!
When Zhou Qing heard this, he was even more angry.
In the past three months, Zhou Qing began to suppress the Wang family with all his might, whether it was in Tianming City or in the suburbs, as long as he met the people of the Wang family, it must be a provocation with the intention of provoking a war.
However, the people of the Wang family have always been unmoved, and have been tolerating and avoiding Zhou's provocations, and they have no arrogance in the past.
This made Zhou Qing extremely angry, he couldn't provoke a dispute, so it was difficult to justifiably suppress the Wang family, thinking that his daughter was poisoned by Wang Tian, but he couldn't take revenge with his own hands, he was naturally aggrieved to the extreme.
"City Lord, why don't you just ask the Wang family for the crime. A silver-armored guard in front of him was also aggrieved, and couldn't help asking.
Zhou Qing wanted to get angry, but the old man in white on the side took the lead in speaking, and then stopped.
He said: "Although Miss's death has nothing to do with the Wang family, Wang's words to the outside world are also legitimate. ”
The old man paused and continued: "The methods shown by the Golden Demon in those days are indeed amazing, and the strength is just as Wang said that the strength of the young lady is above. ”
"However, all the people in Tianming City know that this must be Wang Tian's ghost. The man continued.
Hearing this, Zhou Qing sighed lightly and said: "It is precisely because of this that you can't act rashly, after all, Wang Tian was also seriously injured and broke an arm, and it will involve a lot of people to make a rash move on the Wang family." ”
Hearing Zhou Qing's words, everyone in the audience was gloomy for a while, and their hearts were extremely aggrieved.
"However, we still have a chance, Commander Wang He has already received good news in the past few days, I don't believe that his Wang clan can even resist such a big temptation as the general's tomb. ”
Just when everyone's momentum was extremely low, Zhou Qing's words once again ignited the anger in everyone's hearts.
"Hmph! Qing'er won't die in vain!"
