Chapter 273: Choice
Lin Xi didn't look at the black shadow, took a step back, and gave up his position to Ji Nan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The black shadow looked at Ji Nan and shuddered, obviously with fear in his eyes, and looked at him stiffly.
"Your father is a black dragon, who is your mother?" Ji Nan asked.
"I don't know." There was some sadness in his voice.
Lin Xi raised his peach eyebrows, the feelings of these black shadows are much stronger than ordinary demons, but why does Ji Nan care so much about other people's mothers?
"Don't know? I don't know what kind of demon I have? Or have you never seen it? ”
"I've never seen it, and I don't know what kind of demon it is." The black shadow lowered his head and said softly.
Ji Nan couldn't see what to ask, so he changed the subject, "Where are the rest of your companions locked up?" ”
"I don't know!" The dark shadow replied.
Ji Nan was a little hairy, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the black shadow fixedly.
The black shadow felt the pressure from Ji Nan and hurriedly explained, "Our five hundred companions all live in one place, and then we took a pill and fell asleep, and after waking up, we changed places. I really don't know where it is. ”
Ji Nan looked into his eyes and nodded after making sure he wasn't lying.
"Describe where you live, where you were and what surrounds you after you got out!"
The dark shadow nodded, "The place where we live should be in a valley, the valley is very large, and our five hundred companions feel spacious. We can see high peaks all around, the peaks are covered with snow all year round, and the valley we are in is spring all year round, but there is often a lot of white fog in the sky, the trees are evergreen, the flowers are always blooming, and occasionally a little rain can see the sky, but most of the time the weather is very dry. ”
"Most of the valley is reddish-brown rocks, so we each find a rock to use as our own territory, but the aura is very abundant, and it is mixed with a faint floral fragrance, which smells very good. In addition to cultivating, we often wandered around the valley and never found the exit, but I heard from a few companions with the highest cultivation that they had actually set up a formation shield, but they could see it, but they couldn't crack it. ”
"Every ten days, a monk will take turns to come down to check, check our cultivation, check our body, and will bring a large number of pills for us to eat, and also give all the magic weapons except for the twenty-one people who failed our advancement, very powerful magic weapons!" As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Xi's Fire Phoenix Wooden Sword held in the old man's hand, and did not hide his contempt.
The old man snorted coldly, where to look? The little monster was so annoying that it thought about kicking it, and several people soon heard the sound of bones breaking and a strange cracking sound.
When he looked closely, it turned out that the layer of hard shell covering the surface of the black shadow's body was cracked, and something seemed to flow out, Lin Xi sniffed his nose, and heard Ji Nan say softly, "It's blood!" ”
"Hey, doesn't that mean the shell grows on their body?" Lin Xi's eyes widened in surprise.
Ji Nan nodded, "That's right! ”
At the same time, Xue Yi had already reached out and broke the shell to both sides, and more blood flowed out, and the smell of blood was strong.
Looking at Xue Yi's movements, several people unconsciously looked forward to look forward, and even the old man's curious eyes rolled slightly.
The black shadow above was wrinkled together, looking like a pair of black charcoal stacked together, he really wanted to kick his head and hands under him with a spine, but unfortunately his leg bones were broken, and it was difficult to even move, and he was also a little afraid of the old man.
The flesh and blood under the shell are blurred, just like deliberately opening an opening in an ordinary person and seeing the skin underneath, except that the shell is equivalent to the skin of the black shadows. Xue Yi only let it go after a little fiddle with it, otherwise more blood would flow out.
A few people stood up again, carefully looked at the black shadow, they failed to advance, and most of the characteristics on their bodies were on the patrilineal side, the only matrilineal feature was the shell, not enough, everyone really couldn't remember what the demon with this kind of shell on the body was for a while.
"By the way, Ji Nan, do you know where the black shadow is described?" Lin Xi remembered and asked.
Ji Nan scratched his head and shook his head again, "I really haven't heard of such a place in the north, but it's quite like Taosang in the south......"
Lin Xi waved his hand and said unceremoniously, "Don't be stupid, how could he put the black shadow he worked so hard to get in the south?" What's more, the snow in the mountains of the south does not melt in the middle of the year? ”
Ji Nan nodded approvingly, "That's what I said, if it's me, I definitely have to put it on my own territory, so I can rest assured!" ”
After speaking, he paused, "But, there is no such place in the north, right?" ”
Lin Xi thought that it was not necessarily, if there was a hot spring there, it would not be a problem to enter spring all year round, if there was a hot spring during the pill, wouldn't it mean that there was a volcano, and if there was a volcano nearby, the snow on the mountain would not melt all year round, right?
No, Lin Xi quickly overturned his conclusion, the eruption is called an active volcano, the one that has not moved for hundreds of years is called a dormant volcano, of course, there is also an extinct volcano that no one has seen it spew, if it is a dormant volcano, it is in line with the situation!
That's right, the black shadows are near a dormant volcano that hasn't erupted for a long time, didn't this black shadow also say, the ground is full of rocks, it should be left by the eruption of the volcano hundreds of years ago, which is very similar to the Yellowstone Park in country M in the previous life.
Well, he said there was a lot of white fog there......
Lin Xi's expression changed and he raised his head suddenly.
"What do you think of?" A voice asked.
It was Xue Yi's voice.
Everyone was talking, but Lin Xi suddenly stopped, the expressions on his face changed back and forth, quite rich, and he couldn't let people pay attention to it.
"I'll ask him a few questions before I'm sure!" Lin Xi said to them, and looked at the black shadow after speaking, "Have you heard a loud rumble?" Also, what is the shape of the mountains around the valley, you can describe in detail. ”
The dark shadow nodded, "I've heard rumbling occasionally. The shape of the mountain, you think about it as soon as you think about it, the mountain is quite special, and the top looks like it is sunken. ”
Lin Xi nodded, "Volcano!" ”
"Hey, you know that!" The old man asked in surprise, his eyes rolling on Lin Xi, he became more and more interested in this little girl.
"Old man, you knew why you didn't say it earlier!" Xiao Yu'er pouted.
"You didn't ask me!" The old man said he was innocent.
"Okay, isn't it the time to talk about this, Lin Xi, what do you mean by dormant volcano?" Ji Nan interrupted the old man who still wanted to speak.
"That is, there is a dormant volcano copied in the place where the other dark shadows are, and you can find it by following this clue." Lin Xi said.
Of course, if it was unfortunate that there were many dormant volcanoes in the north, then she would have to say that she was embarrassed.
Looking at Ji Nan and the others' still somewhat sluggish faces, Lin Xi scratched his head and explained, "You always know about the volcano, right?" ”
Everyone shook their heads in unison, and Xiao Yu'er tilted his head and asked, "Is it a mountain with a lot of fire?" ”
Lin Xi was speechless, pulling Ling Xuzi to stand aside and whispering, "Old man, there is a volcano in the Lingxu Continent, right?" ”
The old man nodded, "Yes, there are two of them!" ”
"Then why don't they know?"
"Hey, no one has ever seen those two volcanoes erupt, it's normal to not know!"
"And how do you know?" Lin Xi looked at him.
"I listen to what other people say."
"Oh, go ahead!"
So, Lin Xi gave them the principle of volcanoes and the reasons for their formation, "...... Got it? ”
It was so exhausting to her.
"Understood, sister, you know so much!" The little fish came over with a smile.
Lin Xi stretched out his fingers and flicked his head, and said with a smile, "Hehe......"
She understands that she is from a previous life, but unfortunately she is now in the fantasy world.
"But we still don't know where there are dormant volcanoes?" Ji Nan said suddenly.
Lin Xishen pointed at the old man, "Ah, doesn't he know?" Ask him! ”
The old man immediately turned his head to the side, and when he didn't hear anything.
Ji Nan pounded Lin Xi's arm, "I'll leave it to you!" ”
Lin Xi glared at him, how could he become hers?
But he still tugged at the old man's sleeve, "Hey, old man, where?" ”
"That's your attitude of begging?" The old man blew his beard and glared.
"You don't talk about it, this is a serious matter, in case there is really some earth-shattering conspiracy behind Murong Shui, but it is the Blue Flower Chimunquin Clan who suffers the loss?" Xiaolan is her good sister, and Ji Nan is also her good partner, Lin Xi can't sit idly by.
"Hehe, Jacaranda chinchillas?" The old man said, "I hope you don't regret it in the future......"
The voice behind him suddenly lowered, and Lin Xi didn't hear what he said.
"Hey, old man, if you don't say me, you'll call you by your name?" Lin Xi threatened.
"Hmph, I'm afraid of you! The seventeenth peak of the Hengduan Mountains is a volcano! And one more is in the east, needless to say so detailed, right? The old man said insincerely.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head and disappeared.
Lin Xi called Ji Nan to tell him what the old man Ling Xuozi said, and at the end, he said with some uncertainty, "Why do I think it's too far?" ”
Ji Nan shook his head, "It's really far away!" ”
He asked, "What about the others?" ”
"There is one more in the east, even more impossible!" Lin Xi spread his hands, the area of the Lingxu Continent was ten times that of the previous continent, and there were only two volcanoes, of course, it was not ruled out that extinct volcanoes and the like had not been discovered, but this was not the point.
Ji Nan nodded, "I know!" ”
Then he called Xue Yi and Xiao Yu'er over, "I asked just now, Murong Shui transported thirty black shadows to Fancheng this time, except for the twenty-one who failed to advance, there are nine normal. All of us of the Blue Flower Chickmunks who stayed here were killed by the nine black shadows. ”
"Xiaolan took Murong Bing's body back first, Xiaolu, Ah Cheng, and Xiaotian are still in the city, I don't know if they will bump into them, of course, it is possible to come here. In addition, the fact that Murong Shui privately has a Black Shadow Legion that can break through the city also needs to be passed on to the clan, and I think Murong Shui may be coming for our Blue Flower Chimunge Clan. ”
After speaking, he looked at the three of them, "You-"
"Needless to say, we'll definitely help you!" Lin Xi interrupted Ji Nan's words.
Ji Nan glanced at Xiao Yu'er and Xue Yi twice, one of these two people was willing to be Lin Xi's follower, and the other was her future Taoist companion, Lin Xi's agreement meant that they also agreed.
"Ji Nan, you send a message first, and ask the clan if there is anything abnormal over there? Let's take advantage of this time to settle the rest of Fancheng's affairs, and if we really go to the Blue Flower Chirp Clan, we can also rush over to help as soon as possible." What do you think? Lin Xi asked.
Ji Nan nodded, "Okay!" ”
After speaking, he looked at Xue Yi and Xiao Yu'er again.
"I'm okay with that!"
"I'm okay with that!"
Lin Xi thought about it and asked, "Take out all the low-grade explosive spirit pills you have there!" ”
No one asked why they gave the pill to Lin Xi.
Now that the discussion was settled, everyone began to act.
Xue Yi first told the black dragon about the matter, and the black dragon immediately got up and rushed to Fancheng, and the remaining nine black shadows were handed over to him.
Lin Xi and Ji Nan also found Luo Tianxing and learned that the guards had been sorted out and the pills were enough, so they put all the guards together.
Lin Xi pushed Ji Nan to the front, "His name is Ji Nan, and he belongs to the Blue Flower Chimbunk Clan." Everyone is an immortal cultivator who lives in the jurisdiction of the Blue Flower Chickmunk Clan all the year round, and he must already know his identity, he is the next patriarch of the Blue Champunge Clan. ”
"Now, I have something to tell you about the city lord Murong Shui."
Pushed Ji Nan, "It's your turn!" ”
Ji Nan made a long story short of what happened during this period of time, "...... Murong Shui raised black shadows without the consent of the Blue Flower Chirpin Clan, which was the one in the formation. Therefore, from now on, you will no longer obey the orders of the city lord, you can choose to leave, or you can temporarily follow us and wait for the arrival of the city lord. For those who leave, we will not have anyone to send ten bottles of the lower grade explosion elixir as a reward, and you have ten breaths of time to think about it! ”
The guards were stunned for a moment, and then they looked at each other and talked in a whisper.
Luo Tianxing also approached Lin Xi, "The city lord is really-?" ”
Lin Xi nodded, "Really, what about you, what do you think?" ”
Luo Tianxing said without hesitation when he heard this, "Of course I followed you!" ”
After speaking, I felt as if I was too eager, and said with a smile, "Seriously, following you is much more promising than following the city lord, and my cultivation has increased a lot in this period of time." ”
Lin Xi nodded and said with a smile, "We have few people, and the black shadow is not easy to deal with, so you are willing to help us." ”
Ten breaths passed, and the guards also made a decision, and most of the guards chose to follow, although risky, but also lucrative.
There are also a small number of guards who heard that they could immediately get ten bottles of the lower grade Explosive Spirit Pill, and their eyes were green, and they immediately said that they wanted to leave, after all, when they were in the City Lord's Mansion, they only issued two Explosive Spirit Pills a month, and there were 100 in ten bottles!
Lin Xi and Ji Nan didn't say much, and distributed the lower grade explosive spirit pill to the guards who were leaving, although the remaining guards were red-eyed, but they thought that they would get better and more pills after the matter was over, so they had nothing to envy.
"Thank you for choosing to stay and help us, don't worry, we won't take you with you soon after the matter is over!" Lin Xi stood up and said.
Although these guards would stay if they asked for something, Lin Xi was still grateful in his heart that they were willing to help.
