Chapter 77 Jackdaw Heron 2
Su Can stopped in the chaos and paleness ahead - if he went further, he might be able to get in, but Zhao Ji would definitely not be able to get by. So he turned his head and said, "In front of you is Fengle Building." The closer you get to the 'center', the more chaotic space, space and weather become. His Royal Highness Duanwang, later, you must remember......" When he spoke, a gust of wind blew, lifted his sleeves and pinched his throat to block his ears, Zhao Ji closed his eyes suddenly.
"What do you remember?" Zhao Ji covered his forehead with his sleeve, reluctantly opened his eyes, looked up at him, and said with difficulty, "The wind is too strong, I can't hear clearly." ”
Su Can walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I said, His Royal Highness King Duan must remember, no matter what happens, don't look back, don't give up." ”
Zhao Ji nodded and said, "It's all come to this point, I won't give up." ”
Su Can smiled and said, "That's not right. 'Not giving up' is not an 'accessory', but an 'imprint' that exists in your heart all the time. You are a kind child, but kindness, compassion, and softness, in the midst of a crisis, often turn into cowardice and avoidance. The fact that you've been running away from it, and you don't want to face it, or even admit that it happened. But His Royal Highness Duanwang, you have no choice now, you can't turn back, and if you turn back, you're doomed to failure. Your only will is to move forward, even if you're alone, don't give up, understand?"
"I see, I'm sorry. Zhao Ji's eyes were nervous, but he still raised an effort smile on his face, "But, why do you say this, Su Can?"
The implication of his words is that, after all, the future is still unknown, but at least there are a lot of us. Suddenly, it seems to say goodbye, and if you don't say anything else, it's not lucky in the first place. This undoubtedly cast a thicker shadow on the already unlucky Zhao Ji's heart.
Su Can laughed, stretched out a hand and pinched his face. His hands are very warm, and it is a winter stove, and the sugar-fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes of Frost Moon Street. Zhao Ji thought of Wang Liefeng, and his heart ached sourly.
Su Can approached him and said softly, "You still know too little. ”
The wind is blowing harder at the moment. Even if the distance was so close, Zhao Ji felt in a trance. Maybe it's a mental trance, but I don't know.
Ye Langxing suddenly spoke: "His Royal Highness King Duan, do you know why that escort team has not appeared in front of you so far?"
"Why ......" Zhao Ji frowned and said, "Because the wind and snow are too big to see clearly, are you afraid that you will get separated and destroy the formation?"
"That's half right, not to the essence. Ye Langxing looked ahead and raised his voice, "Because the wind and snow are too big, why is the wind and snow so big? Because this wind and snow, this bad weather, all come from the 'guardian' in front of Fengle Building." ”
Zhao Ji repeated: "Guardian, is it a member of the Huayang Sect?"
"No, it's not. Su Can smiled, "We saw it when we were in the palace, but now, you can treat it as a stranger, a nightmare of first meeting, a nightmare that is a thousand times more terrible than before." ”
Zhao Ji's eyes widened: "...... Yan: You mean, it's because of him that the whole demon beast is rampant? However, we walked all the way from the other side of the mountain to Frost Moon Street, but it was a very, very long distance, how could this be possible?"
At this time, Zhao Ji heard a deafening roar. Low, hoarse, and frenzied, even those who have seen countless birds and beasts have never heard such a fierce and loud sound, as if they were ghosts from ancient chaotic myths, and they could never be humans.
Zhao Ji hissed a cool breath, and his feet followed, but the person said in a trembling voice: "What is that?"
"You'll know when you see it. Su Can let go of Zhao Ji, got up and walked forward, his figure quickly disappeared into a blur of white.
"Be careful when you go past and don't approach the edge of its activity. Whatever you are asked to do, you do. Got it?"
Zhao Ji replied obediently: "...... Okay, I see. ”
He watched Su Can walk into this piece of the unknown, and was about to follow, Ye Langxing pulled him up and urged, "Hurry up, Your Royal Highness Duanwang, the escort team can't last too long, and I explained to you just now that too much time has been wasted." You're really sluggish...... I mean, the brain is quite nimble, but it moves like an old man. You've never practiced martial arts before, have you? ”
"I'm sorry. Zhao Ji couldn't count how many times he said sorry, but if he thought about it carefully, he had always been the one who was holding back, so he felt even more sorry.
There was no time to apologize, and another roar broke through the sky, like a piece of steel smashing overhead, making people tremble.
Zhao Ji walked over and walked to the front of the main entrance of Fengle Building, in the fierce hurricane, under the faint clarity of clearing the clouds and fog, he saw Fengle Building standing majestically in the silver and white snow, like a skinny peak.
And the dozen or so guards surrounding Fengle Lou each maintained their positions and remained vigilant in all directions, in order to be able to face the enemy's sudden attack at any time. Strangely, each of them had a fire fold in his hand, and the raging fire was pouring at the top.
And the enemy has only one.
But this "one" is more difficult to deal with than dozens, hundreds, or thousands, and no matter how many enemies there are, they can be broken one by one, and an enemy who is too strong cannot hurt it at all.
A huge demon beast poked its head out from behind Fengle Tower, and the cold air rustled out of its mouth. To say that it is large is not to compare it to an ordinary beast, but to compare it to the building "Fengle Building", which is several feet tall and about five stories high. It was like a lion, with a large round head, a long, thick mane that shimmered softly in the white light, and its horns protruding from the middle of its forehead, and its bronze bell-like eyes burst with fierce light, fierce, strong, and terrifying, and its fangs stretched out from both sides of its mouth, sharp as a knife. It was covered in hard scales that stretched to the end of its long, powerful tail, and its fluff stretched out and burst across its tail like exploding ice flowers. Its claws resemble giant daggers, scratching deep scars at the snow with every step.
"Isn't this a New Year Beast?" Zhao Ji said, "During the New Year's Festival, how can the things on the murals be ...... How can it be so big?"
I saw the Nian Beast quietly looking at the crowd in front of him, staring intently ahead. When it heard Zhao Ji speak, it suddenly raised its head and let out a third roar towards the sky, and then swooped in Zhao Ji's direction, slapping its sharp claws down!
Zhao Ji put his hand to his mouth. The music was just as it sounded, and it was blown away by a sudden and violent wind, and the sound dissipated without a trace. Zhao Ji was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly hid to the side, but Ye Langxing held him down, shook his head and pointed to the top of his head, and said, "It's okay for the time being." ”
- I didn't expect this claw to come, but it suddenly stopped in mid-air, bounced back, and the year beast stood on all fours on the ground, roared and raised its head, rushed over again, but bounced back to its original place again.
"It's like hitting some invisible barrier that can't be broken through for a while. Zhao Ji said, "This is ...... What formations are they listed?"
"If you want to talk about formations, you can do it. Su Can said, "The edge of the enchantment is as hot as a flame...... Although the Nian Beast is huge in size and has endless power, it is only afraid of light and fire. It is also the only way to expel it. But as you can see, the wind is so strong that the fire can be extinguished at any time, especially around the Nian Beast, and the wind and snow will extinguish all the flames, and the guards can barely get close to it and cannot hurt it. Because they had to run in circles every once in a while so that the fire would continue to burn, because when the beast found them, it was equivalent to seeing the 'prey', and it was necessary to deal with the enemy in front of them. ”
"I see. Zhao Ji said, "Isn't that very simple, as long as you take a fire fold, you can easily enter Fengle Building, if Fengle Building is the 'entrance' of Huayang Sect, I think Fengle Building will not be easily destroyed." Wouldn't it be easy for you to let us in with fire? ”
"I know you're going to think so. Su Can smiled and said, "This is not a problem of 'Fengle Building', but a problem of 'entrance'." Forget it......" Su Can looked down at his palm, snapped his fingers, and the spark jumped up from him, and when it reached the air, it exploded into sparks, and a roaring flame swept through the air and slashed into the earth, swirling to form a huge bright fireball, just like the fire that burned a group of demon beasts to ashes just now. The fireball continued to grow larger, splitting it in half with a brush, sealing the mouth with flames on the top, leading all the way from their location to the entrance of Fengle Building, turning into an unobstructed Yangguan Road.
"Alright, come this way. Su Can said, "Half in front, half in the back, cover His Royal Highness Duan Wang to enter." Don't make mistakes, you know?"
Wenshu said: "Understood. Come here. The members of the escort hurriedly ran over with fire folds, and the four of them ran to the door first. Obviously, the door had already been opened. They walked in with a slightly nervous look on their faces.
Su Can said: "His Royal Highness King Duan, you go in with Ye Langxing first, and I will stay outside...... Ye Langxing, are you sure that the structure of the 'entrance' is like that?"
Ye Langxing nodded.
"Then let's go according to the original plan...... Su Can said slowly, "I can hold out for a long time." ”
"What's wrong?" Zhao Ji heard the conversation between the two a little strange, especially Su Can's voice was slightly weak and tired, and he inadvertently glanced at Su Can's hand, and said in surprise: "Your hand is ......"
I saw a black scorch mark on Su Can's hand, squeaking and smoking, and pus seeping outward-this was obviously burned! How could Su Can be burned by his own flames?
Zhao Ji remembered that Su Can had pinched his face just now, and remembered his warm hands. Su Can's hands have always been cold, his whole body is cold, and he is isolated from the flames. But now, how—how could this happen?
Zhao Ji also shrank in the direction of Ye Langxing as if his fingers were touching fire, and felt that Ye Langxing was not credible, so he fled in another direction, seeing that his clothes touched the fire, he bounced away like an electric shock, trembling all over, and it was cold for a while, and Su Can tried to pull him back, and said: "Be careful of being burned when you go, it hurts to burn your hands." ”
It was still Su Can's usual tone and voice, but Zhao Ji didn't believe him at the moment, he roared in surprise: "Who are you?"
"I ......" Su Can was stunned for a moment, suddenly laughed with relief, shook his head and said, "If you react like this when you encounter anything, it will be very good, Your Royal Highness Duanwang." ”
"You...... What do you want me to do...... I ......" Zhao Ji was shocked, still regarded him as an enemy, his fingers trembled against his lips, and the notes flowed tremblingly: if it was any kind of demon or monster, in this flame space that isolated the noise, he would definitely disappear with the appearance of music.
Zhao Ji stared at Su Can's reaction, Su Can didn't have a look of pain on his face, just looked at him calmly. So Zhao Ji confirmed that the person in front of him was Su Can, yes - no matter what, his eyes couldn't be disguised. He gradually came back to his senses, thinking that if the other party was planning to deceive him, then there was no need to pretend to be like this and suffer this kind of crime, until the flame burned his hands to conceal it, he Zhao Ji was not an opponent who needed to mediate, but a weak chicken, and he lost his breath with a slight pinch.
So Zhao Ji put down his hand and said, "Su Can...... What's wrong with you?"
"You just made two mistakes. First, if you are threatened by the enemy, don't break it directly, at least pretend to compromise first to fight for your own survival. Second, always remember what your tricks are and what they are going to do, I'm a human, not an illusion, and your attack is useless to me. Don't lose your mind at any time, and don't fantasize that miracles will appear and you can do things beyond your ability. Su Can said, "But you just found out that I'm different from usual, that's good." ”
Zhao Ji hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with your hand?"
"Just now, I said that you are not in the right state, you see that even His Royal Highness Duan Wang has found out now. Ye Langxing stretched, turned his eyes to look at Su Can, and said, "I said, can your fire still be used normally?"
Su Can said: "Yes." ...... But I feel different. I feel pain. It is a burning pain. I've never felt this way. It may be that my body comes from someone in the Huayang Sect, and it has some memories involved, and now it doesn't listen to my thoughts very much, it follows its own will before it is born, wants to break away from me, and even does not hesitate to self-destruct...... Probably so, I guess, is a process of repaying debts. ”
"I've heard your story, and you died once. Ye Langxing's face gradually became solemn, and he said, "How long can you last?"
When Su Can spoke, there was a faint gasp, which was unprecedented, and his voice was much weaker, and said, "It's okay, it's not in the way...... It just hurts, but it's not enough for me to die. When I use fire, most of the time it's separated from my body. ”
Zhao Ji hurriedly said: "Then you hurry up, go into Fengle Building together, and then talk about the rest!
"Don't light the fire again?" Su Can sneered, gritted his teeth, "What are you kidding, just to keep the flame intact, I need to summon new flames all the time." Your brain is still not so good, Your Highness Duanwang!
"Su Can......"
Su Can sighed, and his voice became soft: "His Royal Highness King Duan, don't worry, I will share all my good luck with you, you can rest assured that you can move forward." ”
Zhao Ji shook his head violently and said, "Don't!
"I have a fire. Su Can's voice suddenly raised and said, "Okay, come in!"
Zhao Ji was obedient, turned his head and ran.
At the moment of running into Fengle Building, Su Can followed in, a wall of fire was erected, blocking the huge door, the rotating hot air flow blocked the damage from the outside world, and suddenly the roar of the Nian Beast was like Mount Tai pressing the top, and it smashed down from a high place, and the air flow driven by the roar tore open a hole in the flame tunnel, and a huge claw suddenly poked in from the crack, and the escort team led by Wenshu immediately raised the fire fold with one hand, picked up his weapon with the other, and burned towards the giant claw, but this sporadic firelight and weapon, for the huge Nian beast's rough skin and thick claws, it was tantamount to scratching the boots, and the claws still did not stretch out, but grabbed harder, Scratching for a while but not catching, it seemed to be a little angry, raised its claws high, snapped down, and before it had time to hear the scream, the blood-colored petals stretched out from the soles of its feet. When the claw was raised again, it had a sword stuck in the center of its foot, which looked like a stubborn thorn in terms of size.
The Year Beast seemed very annoyed by this. The claw retracted a little, but the next moment, the other claw stretched out to the edge of the crack, brushed the ground and pulled, the small gap turned into a huge crack, and the huge eyes of the year beast flashed in the firelight reflected the fierce gods, and even Ye Langxing was shocked: it was coming in, and in anger, it was going to tear apart the flames and forcibly break into Fengle Building!
Suddenly, the flames roared, and a boiling cloud of smoke filled with white-hot ashes erupted from the ground outside the door, and in the thick smoke, three scorching fireballs larger than those seen in the palace dragged the tail of a long meteor, flying and circling around the Nian Beast, and then expanded to infinity in an instant, brightening and brightening, fusing into a huge ball of light surrounding the head of the Nian Beast, and erupting silently-the strong light scorched, Zhao Ji turned his head and covered his eyes and ran in, the screams of the Nian Beast shook Feng Lelou, and it was forced to run out by the light it was afraid of- Very effective!
With such a powerful flame power, only Su Can can do it.
After temporarily forcing the Nian Beast back, Su Can lowered his head and leaned against the wall, panting loudly. He had never gasped like this, as if he had exhausted his strength, as if he was in agony beyond measure, and his voice had a faint cry.
Zhao Ji hurriedly ran over, and saw that Su Can's fingertips were already scorched, and his skin was open, so he couldn't bear to look at it, so he hurriedly said, "Don't continue"
"What did I tell you just now, did you forget it so quickly?" Su Can said in a hoarse voice, "Hurry up, go up, find the entrance, don't look back." ”
Zhao Ji's eyes trembled, Ye Langxing pulled him away and ran forward, turned back to Su Can and said, "You must hold on!"
"Okay...... I can stand it. Change to the usual state, and come for ten more ...... No, it's tiring to deal with such a big guy...... One would be fine. Su Can slowly turned his head, looked at the Nian Beast running rampantly, smiled reluctantly, and said hoarsely, "It's okay, let me play with you today." But don't be here, there's something important to do here......"
Zhao Ji said: "Outside, outside! Su Can has gone outside!"
Ye Langxing tried his best to pull his face back and said, "Go up, don't delay." ”
"Leave Su Can alone to deal with the Nian Beast?" Zhao Ji said sadly, "He is in such a physical condition now, what will be the odds of winning, have you thought about it?"
"Don't you understand, His Royal Highness Duan Wang!" Ye Langxing's voice trembled, and he said, "Choose between 'one person' and 'the whole escort', which one to sacrifice, and in the end when you face the Huayang Sect Master, you will have a better chance of winning? Do you understand? Do you understand? Do you think I don't understand? Don't look at it." His Royal Highness King Duan, don't look outside. Don't look back, you remember, don't look back. ”
With a snap of his fingers, a fire dragon soared into the air, and the year beast turned around sharply and rushed towards this round of flames.
