Chapter 20: Two Guys
Above the lake, there was a plop, and Merlin, dressed in dark green robes and looking slightly tired, escaped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
His eyes were like lightning, his expression was tired with a hint of madness, and he looked at the calm water, and the corners of his mouth showed a sinister smile.
"I must get her power." Merlin thought to himself, his tired look swept away, and he stared at the lake a little frantically.
At the same time, Merlin's sleeve robe waved, and his body flew upward.
Bang~
But at this moment, a loud roar was heard, and the surface of the lake exploded, and several water plants rushed into the sky.
Even Merlin, who was flying, couldn't help but tremble, and was almost knocked down by the sudden roar.
Merlin turned around and watched the water plant fall like a falling star, with a little horror in his crazy expression.
The crow's feet tightened slightly, and Merlin squinted his eyes, staring at the scene of the falling water plants.
Suddenly, Mo Lin's face changed, and he hurriedly waved his robe, and his body quickly flew towards the top of the Burial Sword Sect.
The water plants that fell from the "Hee Hee ......" appeared one by one, and flew quickly towards Merlin, while bursts of silver bell-like laughter echoed in Merlin's ears.
Hearing this laughter, Merlin's head suddenly roared, his body slammed, and his face was pale and blood spat out.
Merlin gritted his teeth, a pained look on his face, opened his bloody mouth, and spat out a square dice.
"One day, the old man will let you come back." Merlin glanced at the dice in his hand bitterly, and then crushed them.
There was a bang, and a cloud of green smoke formed around it.
By the time the smoke cleared, Merlin was gone, leaving only a burly, glazed-eyed puppet.
Those dark green bubbles melt the golem into it, and in less than half a breath, the golem turns to ashes.
At this time, Mo Lin's face was extremely ugly and appeared under the Sword Tomb Peak of the Burial Sword Sect.
Merlin's expression was cold, clutching his chest, blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth, gritting his teeth and muttering coldly, "I didn't expect her to be so powerful." ”
"However, the stronger I get, the more interested I am." The corners of Merlin's mouth twitched, revealing a sinister smile.
"Ning Wushuang should die if he thinks about it, so I still have time." Merlin glanced at the peak of the Sword Tomb, and his heart became more and more eager for the power of the Ruins Maiden.
……
On the other side of the lake, there is a forest that does not know how wide, the forest is evergreen all year round, and there are many monsters in the forest, but at the same time, it also attracts many monks.
Once the demon beast has cultivation, it will condense the inner pill in the body, and the monk can take the demon beast inner pill to increase his cultivation.
In addition, there are many medicinal herbs in the forest, and the monks come here to kill the demon beasts, and they will also pick some medicinal herbs by the way in exchange for spirit stones.
The spirit stone is the medium of exchange between the monks, and at the same time, there is also spiritual power in the spirit stone, which is used to increase the monk's cultivation.
There is a stream that runs from east to west in the forest, and the water is extremely clear, and the fish and stones in the water can be seen clearly.
The source of the river is close to the Burial Sword Sect, but it is not connected to the lake surrounding the Burial Sword Sect.
Next to the stream at the source of the shore, there is a small tent, and in front of the tent, a warm bonfire is lit.
Beside the bonfire, I saw a woman in a white dress with a hint of fairy-like temperament in her charm, meditating cross-legged.
This woman has outstanding appearance, light eyebrows like a crescent moon, red lips and jade face, and skin as white as snow in that winter, better than a fairy.
She slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes were shining, like the stars in the night.
"Why hasn't Senior Brother Ning come yet, the way to Nanzhou will definitely pass through here." Xu Qin was a little worried in her heart, frowning slightly.
Bang~
Xu Qin's expression changed, and he quickly got up and rushed to the lake.
I saw a column of water rushing to the sky, completely blocking my vision, and then an invisible pressure spread out to the surroundings.
This invisible pressure shook the falling snow on the ground on the riverbank, and Xu Qin couldn't help but take a few steps back.
But Xu Qin's eyes never left the lake, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
It wasn't until the mid-ring that the sky-high water column fell, and the surroundings returned to calm, that Xu Qin covered his lips, sat on the ground, and sobbed quietly.
She didn't know why she was crying, she just felt like she had lost something.
"Senior Sister Xu, what's wrong with you." At this time, a gentle and caring voice came into Xu Qin's ears.
Xu Qin's delicate body trembled, and she hurriedly raised her head to look at the half-squatted young man who was close to him, and looked very handsome.
"No, it's fine." Xu Qin's face turned red all of a sudden, and he hurriedly lowered his head, and at the same time used his spiritual power to wipe away his tears, and the loss just now disappeared in an instant.
Ning Wushuang looked at Xu Qin's appearance and smiled slightly, "It's okay, by the way, Senior Sister Xu, how could you be here." ”
Xu Qin was still thinking about how Ning Wushuang could suddenly appear, and was startled by Ning Wushuang's question, and responded in a somewhat low voice, "Master, Master asked me to go down the mountain to practice." ”
Ning Wushuang showed a sudden look, looked at the tears on Xu Qin's face that had not been completely erased, and asked solemnly, "Senior Sister Xu, are you being bullied, tell Senior Brother, Senior Brother will be angry for you." ”
Xu Qin was silent for a moment, then finally pursed his lips and smiled, shaking his head.
"Senior Brother Ning, why don't you go down the mountain too?" Xu Qin diverted the topic and at the same time restored herself to nature.
Ning Wushuang let out a long breath, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and spit out two words, "White frost." ”
Xu Qin suddenly understood why Ning Wushuang wanted to go down the mountain, and glanced at Ning Wushuang who was pretending to be smiling, Xu Qin asked bitterly, "Senior brother, do you really hate the sect master so much?" ”
Being asked by Xu Qin like this, Ning Wushuang was stunned, but Ning Wushuang still said firmly, "Hate." ”
"Oh." Xu Qin's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"The healer is merciful, junior sister, I know you don't want me to hold a grudge." Ning Wushuang looked at Xu Qin's expression and smiled awkwardly.
Xu Qin smiled slightly, smiling like a flower, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at Ning Wushuang, quite playful, waiting for Ning Wushuang's next words.
But after waiting for a long time, Ning Wushuang didn't answer, and Xu Qin had a certain number in his heart.
"Where is Senior Brother Ning going this time?" Xu Qin asked softly.
Ning Wushuang's gaze slowly withdrew from Xu Qin's face, looked away to avoid embarrassment, and said at the same time, "Nanzhou." ”
Xu Qin held his little hand and said after half a sound, "Then, can you let me be with my senior brother." ”
Ning Wushuang was a little surprised, looking at Xu Qin's expectant gaze, he was a little hesitant in his heart.
He also understands the danger of Nanzhou, and he doesn't want to put others in danger.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Ning, I can take care of myself, and I can also heal your injuries, and I can also communicate with you about alchemy techniques." Xu Qin saw Ning Wushuang's concern.
"Nope." Ning Wushuang smiled and said categorically.
Xu Qin was stunned for a moment, although Ning Wushuang's refusal was expected, he was inevitably disappointed in his heart, and barely kept a smile, "Master sent me down the mountain and also to Nanzhou, senior brother, you let me be with you, and we can take care of each other." ”
Ning Wushuang hesitated again in his heart, hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth, "Okay, I promise you." ”
Xu Qin showed a happy smile, and the smile was extremely beautiful, which made Ning Wushuang look a little stupid.
But soon Ning Wushuang hurriedly looked away.
Regarding Ning Wushuang's performance, Xu Qin sneered, and Ning Wushuang felt a little uncomfortable when she heard the laughter.
Hurriedly changed the topic, "By the way, Senior Sister Xu, what is your cultivation now." ”
"Fifth layer of qi refining." Xu Qin responded.
Ning Wushuang bowed slightly, her eyes showed envy, and then she got up and walked to the shore of the lake, looking at the lake with a complicated expression.
Xu Qin didn't know what was going on, and quickly got up and walked to Ning Wushuang's side.
Looking towards Ning Wushuang's line of sight, Xu Qin didn't find anything.
"Senior brother, do you have something on your mind?" Xu Qin asked softly.
"I didn't ...... I just think this lake is quite strange. Ning Wushuang did not reveal the remnant girl in the lake, nor did she say anything about her experience.
As for how he managed to escape from the palm of the powerful relic girl's hand, he didn't say either.
"Strange?" Xu Qin was puzzled, but seeing that Ning Wushuang didn't mean to continue, she didn't ask again.
"Okay, let's pack up and go to Nanzhou, go early, come back early." Ning Wushuang had horror in his eyes, and said with a smile to Xu Qin next to him.
At the same time, he walked quickly to the place just now, squatted down and picked up the green mangs and bags sent by Xiaoqing.
Xu Qin watched Ning Wushuang go away, with a complicated look in his eyes, and then followed.
……
Two days later, the two went deep into the forest, because this forest is evergreen all year round, so there is no snow, there are a lot of medicinal herbs in the forest, and the two have also refined a lot of pills in these two days.
But these pills belong to Xu Qin, because Ning Wushuang can't cultivate now, and it's useless to increase the spiritual power of the pills.
In the past two days, although I have also encountered a lot of demon beasts, they have all been solved by Xu Qin.
Every time he encountered a demon beast, it was Xu Qin who made a move, which made Ning Wushuang feel very uncomfortable in his heart.
But fortunately, the demon beast inner pill and the refined pill are all owned by Xu Qin, and Ning Wushuang is more comfortable in his heart.
The two of them made a fire, Xu Qin was cultivating cross-legged on the side, and Ning Wushuang was concentrating on refining the elixir.
At the same time, he took the book on alchemy given by the old man, and tried to improve it while reviewing it.
In this way, the two of them spent more than ten days in this forest, and Ning Wushuang's alchemy technique improved day by day.
Although Xu Qin's alchemy skills have also improved, he is not as fast as Ning Wushuang.
Xu Qin was on cultivation, and because of the pill he had taken, the Demon Beast Inner Pill had been promoted to the middle of the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Period at this time.
On this day, the two of them were still alchemy or cultivation as usual.
Howl~
Suddenly, a tiger roar sounded in the ears of the two of them, causing their bodies to tremble.
The two stopped, looking at each other.
"The roar of the tiger is coming from the east." Xu Qinxiu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and her face was a little solemn.
Listening to the roar of the tiger, it is not very far from the two of them, if it is just the roar of the tiger, they are not afraid, but in the roar of the tiger, there is also the sound of blades and swords.
"Let's take a look." Ning Wushuang proposed.
Xu Qin nodded, and the two of them walked lightly and looked for the voice.
