Volume 1 Darkness Rising Chapter 50 Life to Death
Hela didn't use the Soul Eater Scorpion to deal with Zhou Chang for a long time, because after the human soul was devoured, although she could still find out the past memories, it would take a long time and mental effort, so she didn't want to use the Soul Eater Scorpion unless she had to.
Zhou Chang only had one thought in his heart, he must climb up, he didn't want to die, because he still had to be filial to Grandma Han, who raised him.
It was this belief that made Zhou Chang temporarily forget the unbearable pain and itching on his body, and kept climbing to the top of the mountain.
At that moment, a red shadow suddenly flew past him and landed on top of his head. He couldn't help but look up, and saw that the red scorpion, the size of a baby's arm, was leaning downward, constantly opening and closing two large pincers.
Zhou Chang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the Soul Eater Scorpion, and subconsciously leaned his body back. When he leaned back, the hand that was gripping the crack in the rock naturally increased its strength. However, the rock in the gap where he had grasped had already cracked, and as soon as he used such force, the rock cracked open for him, and his hands were raised in the air by inertia.
At this time, Zhou Chang's entire body was in a state of leaning backwards, although his hands kept moving in mid-air, trying to maintain the balance of his body. However, the tilt was too great to maintain balance at all, and his feet couldn't help but take a step back, and he stepped into the air with this retreat, and his body fell down rapidly.
When Zhou Chang's body fell, he suddenly heard Hela's anxious cry, which made Zhou Chang, who thought that he was going to die, feel a little comforted.
The cliff was very high, and Zhou Chang fell down for about five minutes before he fell heavily to the ground. I only heard a plopping sound, and it turned out that there was a river under this cliff.
Rao would not have died if he fell in this soft water, but the impact of falling from such a high cliff still made Zhou Chang faint.
When Zhou Chang woke up, he found that a bright moon had hung in the sky, and there was a flickering fire nearby, and a tall and thin figure was sitting in front of the fire with his back to him. From the firelight, the smell of barbecue came from the fire.
Zhou Chang tried to sit up from the ground with his hands, but when he moved, he touched the wounds on his body and couldn't help moaning.
The figure heard the voice, and didn't look back, but said lightly, "Are you awake?"
It was a man's voice, Zhou Chang felt that this voice was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who this person was, and thought to himself, could it be that Gulvedan saw that the young master was hard-boned and couldn't ask the whereabouts of the book, so he wanted to tempt me with food?
Thinking of the food, Zhou Chang's nose twitched twice, but he still held back the hunger in his stomach and said to the man: "Don't waste your efforts, I won't say anything." ”
The figure chuckled and turned suddenly, "Then you'd better just keep your mouth shut." ”
By the light of the fire, Zhou Chang could see this person's face clearly, his pale face was gloomy and terrifying, and a pair of slender eyes were staring at him like poisonous snakes.
"It's you, Lord Golden Baron, Changling" Zhou Chang couldn't help but exclaim after seeing that person's face.
"You remember me. Changling retracted his gaze, tore a piece of the roasted meat, and threw it at Zhou Chang.
Zhou Chang subconsciously reached out and took the cooked meat thrown by Changling, the meat had just been roasted, it was very hot, Zhou Chang took a few strokes in his hand, and ate it without thinking about it.
After eating the meat, Zhou Chang felt a lot more energetic, and wanted to ask Changling why he came here and how he saved him, but as soon as he remembered Changling's gloomy expression, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
After Changling finished eating the barbecue, he took a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his mouth, and glanced back at Zhou Chang, "You have a big fate, and you actually came back to life." ”
It turned out that after Zhou Chang fell into the river, he lost consciousness and was swept downstream by the turbulent river. Later, it was rushed to the shore by several powerful waves.
When Changling passed by the river bank and found Zhou Chang, he was already dying and could die at any time. In these 100,000 barren mountains, there are dangers and weirdness everywhere, Changling didn't even bother to look at him if he didn't even bother to save Zhou Chang.
However, Changling Che inadvertently found the iron sword behind Zhou Chang, and his heart moved, although when he saw this iron sword for the first time, he felt that the iron sword itself contained great power, and he really wanted to take this iron sword for himself. However, as a nobleman and a great swordsman, and having received the Emperor's Medal, it was impossible for him to do such a stealing thing.
So, he wanted to try his best to save Zhou Chang, if he couldn't save him, the sword would become an ownerless thing, and he would have a clear conscience if he got it; if Zhou Chang survived, he would naturally become Zhou Chang's savior. At that time, let Zhou Chang use the iron sword to repay the life-saving kindness.
Zhou Chang didn't know what Changling was thinking, but when he saved him, he naturally had to make a grateful look, "Lord Baron is really a good person, and I can't repay a poor boy, so I have to set up an immortal tablet for you at home, bless you with immortality and many blessings." ”
Changling was ready to say something, and asked Zhou Chang for the iron sword, but who knew that Zhou Chang was so careless, and he didn't know how to open his mouth when it came to his mouth, so he snorted coldly angrily, "Hmph, it's you who are looking for death." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the silver long sword placed beside him, stood up, glanced at Zhou Chang coldly, and walked towards the woods not far ahead.
Zhou Chang looked around, it was as silent as death, and in the woods in front of him, a few things flashing with pale red light flickered. The light was still, but it still looked a little erratic, making it impossible to determine if it was an animal's eyes or some strange creature.
Although Zhou Chang has become much bolder after this period of tempering, he is still a little frightened when he stays alone in this kind of place.
So, he endured the pain in his body, stood up, and limped towards Changling. After walking a few steps, I suddenly found that the itching sensation on my body was no longer after being bitten by a black scorpion, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Just when he was stunned, Changling's figure had already disappeared into the woods.
The surrounding branches and leaves rustled in the wind, and the moon in the sky was obscured by a dark cloud, and the earth was plunged into darkness.
In the darkness, those pale red lights seemed brighter, and in this silent night, it was like a demon's eyes staring at the food that was about to reach his mouth, and this food was Zhou Chang.
Zhou Chang was happy and worried at this time, happy that he finally didn't have to endure that kind of heart-piercing itch, and worried that the damn Changling actually left him alone in this eerie place.
He was a little hesitant to go into the woods, "Hey, Lord Golden Baron, are you in there?"
No one answered, but he looked at the dim sky, thinking that if he didn't catch up, he might go away. So he went into the woods.
As soon as you enter the woods, you feel that it is much darker than outside. He felt that something was wrong and wanted to quit, but the darkness around him was getting thicker and thicker, and he couldn't tell the direction he had come from. He turned and walked back a few steps before he crashed into a large tree, causing him to sizzle and moan in pain.
Zhou Chang didn't dare to move forward quickly, so he had to swing the iron sword in front of him, like a blind man, and try to move forward step by step.
He walked directionlessly for an unknown amount of time, and suddenly noticed two things shining with a light red light in front of him.
He took a step back, and as soon as he stepped back, the reddish light took a step forward.
"Don't come with me, it's not good if I hurt you, master. Zhou Chang said as he slowly stepped back. According to his personality, if he encounters such a strange thing, he will definitely turn around and run. However, in this dark wood, he would be knocked over by the big tree blocking him at any time, so he had to force himself to calm down and use his momentum to oppress the unknown creature on the opposite side.
However, the two light red rays seemed to see Zhou Chang's bluff, and they still floated straight towards Zhou Chang.
The pale red light was getting closer and closer, and it was about to stick to Zhou Chang's body.
At this time, Zhou Chang felt the temperature around the pale red light change, and he could faintly hear a slight breathing.
Zhou Chang didn't think about it, raised the iron sword in his hand, and slashed forward, the unknown creature on the opposite side seemed to be defenseless, and was slashed by Zhou Chang's iron sword.
After the unknown creature was struck by Zhou Chang, it suddenly let out a scream like a dog and a sheep, and then the two light red lights slowly retreated, as if they didn't leave behind and crashed into the big tree, making a rustling sound of swaying leaves.
Although Zhou Chang succeeded in one blow, he was still very nervous in his heart, he waved the iron sword in his hand twice in mid-air, strengthened his courage, and said loudly: "Hey, I have seen how powerful the master is, I advise you not to do it right with the master." ”
As he spoke, he slowly stepped back, and when his body touched a large tree, he pressed his body against the tree, and for a moment he looked at the two bright red lights in front of him.
The two pale red lights seemed to be frightened by Zhou Chang's words, and they did not get close to Zhou Chang again, but floated left and right in mid-air, gurgling from time to time.
The two were in a stalemate for a while, and Zhou Chang suddenly found that there were more than a dozen identical lights around the two red lights.
Seeing this, Zhou Chang scolded: "Dog offal, I said why don't you move, it turns out that you are waiting for a helper." ”
As he spoke, a dozen pale red rays of light slowly drifted towards him.
In the woods shrouded in this thick dark night, the pale red light was like the eyes of a hungry ghost from hell, looking at Zhou Chang greedily.
Zhou Chang looked at the red light floating over, and suddenly felt a sense of fear in his heart.
As soon as the feeling of fear came out, four strange big characters suddenly appeared in his mind, and Zhou Chang could feel that the strong breath of death in those four big characters was the words of the undead clan.
"Born to die?" Zhou Chang subconsciously pronounced those four words, and as soon as he read them, he remembered the last time the vicious Hella cast a pickled rotten snake to bite him, he had read this sentence to live to death.
Zhou Chang vaguely remembered the content behind Born to Death, and in this critical concern, he began to silently recite this undead spell in his heart, "Born to Die, my heart is full of despair, fear swallows everything, and my life is abandoned." Great Death, please soothe my body and soul and accomplish for you the task of corrupting the creatures of the earth. ”
As soon as he finished reading, a strong air flow surged through his body.
Zhou Chang had heard Angelina tell some things about the swordsman's qi training, and most of them used their minds to control the flow of true qi.
He felt that the air flow in his body was very similar to the true qi that Angelina said, so he also tried to control the air flow with his mind, only to see him muttering in his mouth, "Come to my hand, come to my hand." While using the consciousness in his mind to control the turbulent air current.
Unexpectedly, when he tried it like this, the air flow really split into two streams, which flowed into Zhou Chang's left hand and right hand respectively.
Zhou Chang succeeded in this attempt, and he couldn't help but be happy. Just as he was distracted, the air currents suddenly converged from between his hands and pulsed wildly within him.
At the moment, Zhou Chang didn't dare to be distracted, and concentrated on using his consciousness to draw the air flow back into his hands.
At this moment, more than a dozen rays of light red light had already drifted to Zhou Chang's side, and he could clearly feel that the temperature around him had dropped by several degrees.
Suddenly, two light red rays of light suddenly rose several times, and at the same time, a strong wind came to his face, blowing a few strands of Zhou Chang's hair.
Zhou Chang saw the two light red lights, swooped towards this side from the air, and subconsciously waved his left hand that did not hold the sword to block.
When his left hand swung out, he happened to touch the body of a furry animal.
The air flow that stayed in Zhou Chang's left hand, after touching the monster's body, triggered an invisible air flow, and the air flow was like a huge wave that hit the monster's body.
Only a dog and a sheep scream was heard, followed by the muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Just as the monster let out a miserable scream, a stream of warm liquid sprayed Zhou Chang's face. Although in the darkness, he couldn't see what it was, but with the fishy smell on the liquid, he was sure that it was the blood of the monster.
