Chapter 43: Leaving < >
The Great Devil was wounded and ran out of the house.
Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, the arrow in Xia Cen's hand was immediately released.
"Ahh After a wail, a demonic cry finally formed.
Yan Feng picked up the Ghost Crying Stone on the ground and walked towards them.
"Xia Cen, this is for you, I'll need it later." Yan Feng's expression was very serious.
The atmosphere around me changed.
"Be careful, she's coming this way, sling." Joe warned.
"Why did she go after us?" Xia Cen really didn't understand.
"For you are the only living people in the valley of all evil."
"Does a living person deserve to die?" She couldn't accept the answer.
"No, it should be said that the demon Gu itself has an irresistible strong temptation to live animals, and will involuntarily chase the target, it is recorded in the book that they are insect demons in their bodies, and they will be sharpened into Gu by the evil wizard's harmful Gu magic, once the Gu is hit, it will run around in the body, sucking the blood in the body for a living, and reproduce rapidly, if the blood supply in the body is insufficient, it will turn to erode other organs in the body as food, until the parasite dies."
"It's scary." When Xia Cen heard this, the cold hairs on his whole body stood on end.
"Also, the most terrible thing about it is that everyone who walks through it will leave a trace. The mucus released by its own feet will adhere to the place where it walks, and it is also the way it leaves its offspring, and once it gets rid of the worms in its body, it must also remove the mucus, because it is impossible to do it, so there is no cure."
"I see." Xia Cen then understood what was going on.
"By the way, wait a minute, if even the demon can't stop her, you can flee to the lake." Joe continued.
"Which lake?" Xia Cen asked.
"The lake of the female water ghost, it is the only lake in the valley, there is a sluice gate at the bottom of the lake, it is the only passage to connect to the outside, you can consider escaping from here to the outside."
"It's just that there is a lot of distance in this passage, and the two of them are still possible, but are you sure?" Joe was a little worried.
"In order to survive, you have to do it if you can't do it." Xia Cen went out.
"Okay, I've already told you what I think, whether you can succeed or not, and then it's up to you." Joe concluded.
"Well, thank you, Joe," Xia Cen thanked him from the bottom of his heart, "We really don't know what we would have done without you."
"Ha, we're companions, why are we so polite?" Joe unconsciously reached out and slapped her arm, though she couldn't see it.
However, for a moment, Xia Cen really felt the feeling of being slapped on his arm.
It was the first time she had felt so exactly what it was like to have Joe by her side.
Just in case, Xia Cen seized the time and told them all the things she had discussed with Qiao just now.
"Okay, this is the only time we're sure we can escape, if we really can't beat the worm, the insects are naturally afraid of water, so we'll jump into the water and find the gate to escape." Yan Feng first did a pre-war analysis.
"Also, Xia Cen," Yan Feng looked at her, "the Devil Crying Stone needs to be eaten in her stomach to achieve a deterrent effect, so wait a minute, the heavy responsibility of putting the stone into her mouth will be handed over to you."
"No problem, wrap it up on me." With the goal of hard work, everyone is in good spirits.
"Very good," Yan Feng nodded approvingly, "Now everyone adjusts to their best condition and prepares for the final battle."
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the black monkeys who had been staying in the trees disappeared in an instant.
"Here we are." Yan Feng said in a deep voice.
Lingzi slowly walked towards them step by step, and there was a cold murderous intent in his eyes.
"You can really escape," she said coldly, "that you dare to let me chase after you so hard, and it will not be able to quench the anger in my heart if I don't kill you."
Before he finished speaking, he stretched his hands forward, and turned into two big snakes.
"Isn't this the snake of the Head Chopper?" When Yan Feng saw it, he was taken aback, "Chen Yu, be careful, that snake is poisonous."
"I know." Chen Yu held a double blade in his hand and rushed towards one of the big snakes.
Yan Feng also followed up at the same time, holding a hammer in one hand and a knife in the other, and ran towards another big snake.
Xia Cen stepped back a little distance, found a suitable place, and first fixed the Demon Devil Cry on the arrow, ready to launch it if necessary.
Chen Yu saw the opportunity and slashed hard at the snake's head, and made a "bang" sound, making him stop on the spot.
The snake's head turned around and opened its bloody mouth, and was about to bite down on Chen Yu, who was stunned.
Seeing this, Yan Feng immediately aimed at the snake's mouth and opened it.
A bullet entered the serpent's mouth, and with a muffled grunt, the snake's head immediately retracted.
"What are you doing? What a daze!" Yan Feng yelled at him.
"I'm sorry, I was too surprised just now to react for a while," Chen Yu looked helpless, "My sword can't hurt it."
"Me too," Yan Feng comforted him, "but it's okay, we just need to try to make her open her mouth so that Xia Cen can do it, just hold it up a little longer, and remember, don't get bitten by a snake."
"Okay, I understand," Chen Yu regained his strength, raised his twin blades and yelled at Lingzi, "If you want to kill, then let you kill enough—"
After speaking, he no longer cared about the problem of the snake's head, and rushed over as if he was fierce at the front of the lingzi.
When the snake's head attacked, he repelled it with his double blades, and when he came again, he kicked it away from the side, and finally, he simply stepped on the snake's back and quickly approached Lingzi's body.
Seeing this, Yan Feng also followed up together and assisted from the side.
Lingzi was quite amused by their sudden ruthlessness.
"Oh, ruthless?" She didn't want to waste any more time, "I'd like to see how ruthless you can be?"
Suddenly, Lingzi's head split in half, and the tentacles inside immediately launched a fierce attack on Yan Feng and them.
Coupled with the assistance of the two snake arms, Yan Feng and they were not her opponents at all.
Xia Cen was in a cold sweat watching from the side, and he wanted to make a move but was worried that he would accidentally hurt his own people, and was hesitating, Chen Yu was careless for a while and was caught by the tentacles.
Xia Cen was shocked and hurriedly shot an arrow at the tentacle that grabbed the person, but the arrow was bounced back at the same time as it touched the tentacle and fell directly to the ground.
At this time, the head of the snake opened its big mouth and was about to bite off Chen Yu's head, Chen Yu used all his strength, without doing anything, and shot a double blade into the snake's mouth.
After the head of the snake was hit by the sword in the throat, he immediately retreated.
Now, Lingzi's two snake arms are injured and can't move for the time being, only the tentacles on the head remain.
At this time, Xia Cen suddenly saw that in the center of those tentacles, there was a small yellow thing, looming.
Perhaps, this is Lingzi's weakness, she thought.
Chen Yu had already been arrested, and she didn't have time to think about it carefully, so she picked up the ghost crying arrow that had been prepared in advance, put it on the string, and prepared to shoot at the next opportunity.
Not long after, when the yellow thing came out again, Xia Cen did not hesitate to aim at it and launch it.
"Ahh
Unexpectedly, this pinch worked, and all the tentacles of Lingzi retracted their heads, holding their heads and wailing in pain.
"Run now!" Xia Cen shouted at the two of them.
The three of them ran wildly from different directions to the same place.
"Xia Cen, you killed her, didn't you?" Chen Yu asked as he ran.
"I don't know." Xia Cen replied.
"Whether she's dead or not, we know that we're no match for her at all, so let's flee to the lake!"
With all their might, they ran to the lake as fast as they could.
As soon as he saw the lake, he didn't think about it and immediately jumped into the lake.
Yan Feng and Chen Yu swam directly to the bottom of the lake to find the gate. The sharp-eyed Yan Feng immediately spotted it.
He called Chen Yu and asked him to help, and the two worked together to open the floodgates.
Unbeknownst to him, at this time, a strong suction force came from the surface of the lake, sucking the entire lake water upward.
"It's Lingzi, it seems that we have failed, a ghost crying, and it really can't cure her." Qiao, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "Xia Cen, you go and help them, leave it to me here."
"You're coming?" Xia Cen asked him, "What are you going to do?"
"I have my own way, don't worry, go ahead." Joe's tone was unusually calm.
"Don't lie to me, are you trying to sacrifice yourself?"
"Haha, I'm already dead, where did I get the sacrifice?" Joe laughed: "What's more, to put it mildly, I'm also a ghost, and it's not the same as not dead?"
"It's different, you're not dead, although you can't see your people, but at least you can still hear your voice, if you die, you can't hear it anymore." Xia Cen corrected him.
"Do you want to go?" Joe was dumbfounded by her question, so she had to change the subject.
"Of course." She nodded vigorously.
"Then stop talking this nonsense and go and help!" Joe left the sentence and said no more.
"Joe—." Xia Cen was bitter for a long time, and no one responded to her.
At this moment, the water of the lake that had been sucked away suddenly stabilized, the pressure disappeared, and Yan Feng and Chen Yu could continue to open the floodgates.
The three of them joined forces and finally turned away.
Chen Yu took the lead in swimming out.
As soon as Yan Feng turned around, he saw that Xia Cen didn't want to leave yet, so he swam to her side. Take her hand and swim to the gate exit.
They were taken out together with the force of the lake rushing towards the gates.
Xia Cen's water nature was not as strong as theirs, and it didn't take long for the oxygen in her body to run out.
She touched her neck with both hands, a painful expression appeared on her face, and her body subconsciously struggled.
Yan Feng immediately pulled her towards him, pressed against her lips, and sent a breath of air to her, while letting her body relax by the way.
I don't know how long it took, but when all three of them were about to suffocate from lack of oxygen, they were washed down the sewer and finally saved.
Struggling to climb the aisle of the sewer, the three of them gasped for air.
"Haha, we're finally out, we're finally out." Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh excitedly.
"Yes, after all the hard work, I finally escaped." Yan Feng couldn't hide his excitement, "We can finally go home."
"Well, it's great that everyone is okay." Xia Cen looked at the two of them happily and said with a smile.
"Joe, I hope you're safe too." She silently added this sentence in her heart.
