Chapter 55: Cleansing
Writing is the purest thing to do, and I hope everyone knows how to respect it.
That's it for a monthly pass. I don't have the face to ask for 5,000 words, everyone is free.
I hate this environment.
I feel sorry for everyone's hard work to sign in, the money wasted on the refill, and the joy and expectation that were destroyed by Xiaoxiang's decision.
In the afternoon, Xiaoxiang's new policy was like the last straw that pressed the camel's camel, and it directly made me go berserk.
But it doesn't seem to be fulfilled.
The empress wrote that up to now, the negative energy has long been bursting, and I have been enduring it, wanting to persevere to the end with a calm attitude.
Since the 24th, I have not had a day of peace. Temptation, attack, question, grievance, gossip, grudge, I kill you and you kill me...... The buzz came straight at me, and it blew up my brain with fireworks all day long.
But I can't write anymore.
I know that today is the last day of the month, I know that this month's ticket list is full of gunsmoke, I know that the previously stable list may not be stable tonight, and I know that I should make a final fight.
Sorry, it's only five thousand words today.
------Off topic------
……
"But I changed my mind and decided to keep them waiting." He whispered in her ear, "Let's double cultivate first, and then toast." ”
Long Yin held the dressing table with both hands, smiled calmly, and leaned down towards her.
"Huh." As soon as it sounded, Jing Hengbo was on his lap, and the box containing the pill suddenly popped out a small net and wrapped around her wrist, the thing was like a living thing, and as soon as it touched her skin, it was tightly entangled.
"Click." With a bang, on the seat of the dresser, two iron bars suddenly stretched out, trapping Jing Hengbo's legs tightly.
"The sedan chair is parked outside the second gate, the bride is hanging on the tree, it is probably cold, which river may be in the person who picks up the relatives, of course I won't let you look for it. Of course, there were guests who watched the ceremony, and I told them, don't go away, the bride will soon come to the chapel to toast. There was a faint and cold smile on the corner of Long Yin's lips, and he made a gesture with his hand.
"What do you mean?" Jing Hengbo raised his eyebrows.
"Nope." Long Yin's answer was very simple.
"Where's my sedan chair?" Jing Hengbo held his chin and looked at him lazily, "What about Xi Niang?" What about the guests? What about the person who picks up the kiss? ”
Seeing Jing Hengbo with such flawless skin than snow, his eyes couldn't help but show a look of amazement. It's like seeing a flower that has been washed and brightened, blooming from the spring breeze.
It was Long Yin who came, and the "groom official" did not wear a festive red robe, nor did he have a hat with gold flowers, he was still dressed in white, and walked in casually.
There was footsteps behind her, and she raised her eyes a little hopefully, and then lowered her eyelashes.
Jing Hengbo suddenly hoped that at this moment, Gong Yin was by his side and saw such a change in her with his own eyes.
is twice as good as Jing Hengbo's original skin.
What disappeared was also the various marks on the body, snow makeup and jade baby, which were naturally made.
Jing Hengbo raised his hand in a daze, and saw a little red mole on the back of his hand, which slowly disappeared.
If it was the beautiful jade dust at the beginning, now it is the moonrise of Yunkai, which is more colorful, the jade in the clear spring, the porcelain in the milk, and the snow on the white satin, which is so white that it is crystal clear and abundant, making this dark palace seem to be shining brightly.
The skin is turning white at a speed that can be felt by the naked eye, like the tide overflowing the beach, and the sky light washing away the darkness, a sparkling color. Where the snow-white tide passed, the pigment was gone, the dullness was gone, the macula was gone, and finally even the pores made people feel that they were slowly closing until there was no trace.
If you look closely, it doesn't seem to be a mirror, it's your own skin?
Then she suddenly felt the mirror light up.
It's hard to imagine how effective a pill can be.
She stared at the mirror in front of her without blinking, and the woman in the mirror had gorgeous facial features and extremely poor skin condition. The hazy bronze mirror can also see the various pigments and dull yellow that suddenly appear on the skin.
With hot water, take the pill. A scorching breath surged from the lower abdomen and instantly flowed throughout the body.
Jing Hengbo stole a lot of herbs, and Long Yin practiced a few of those pills each, but he stingily only gave her a cleansing pill.
However, there was no bride in front of the dresser, nor a gorgeous phoenix crown and a jewelry box, only a box with a red pill.
Jing Hengbo sat in front of the mirror, making the final grooming for his "big wedding".
Light about crow yellow, light and even snail dai, so teach to take the time of grooming.
……
"Give me your Pranya Snow and your Emperor Song."
The cloaked man smiled.
"How to cooperate?"
Gong Yin slowly dragged the skin bag back, and the dark eyes shrouded the opposite side, the face was dull, and the man who was obviously wearing a mask.
"If you want to cross this Red River, you must first extinguish the true fire of the Red River. If you want to extinguish the real fire, you need to take out the fire essence stone in the heart of the river. After taking out the fire essence stone, it will take three days before the damage of this true fire will be reduced to the extent that we can pass smoothly without fear. Gong Yin, Gong Yin, you say, do you wait three days before you come out and watch Jing Hengbo become another wife, or do you take a risk and cooperate with me, get out of trouble as soon as possible, and protect your Jing Hengbo's chastity? ”
Gong Yin's weakness will always have only one Jing Hengbo. Some people try to hold him hostage in vain, but it's really in vain.
He had regained his composure, and in his deep eyes, he was three points smug and three points sneering.
The cloaked man took a breath, and with the help of the power of the long stem, he calmly got up, patted his robe, and sat down cross-legged on the ice cube freely, looking at Gong Yin with a smile.
"Huh?" Even his nasal voice is obvious.
A cold glint flashed in Gong Yin's eyes.
The ice sword stopped.
But the man suddenly said, "If you kill me now!" Jing Hengbo will always become someone else's wife! ”
Gong Yin sneered slightly, he had expected that the other party would have this hand, as soon as he raised his hand, an ice sword flew out, and he was going to cut off the stem.
The cloaked man was in a hurry but not confused, and with one hand, he copied the long stem of Gong Yin's manipulation of the skin bag in the darkness where he couldn't see.
With a "whoosh", his falling hair was burned off, and a ray of fire jumped up the hair, leaving a scar on his neck.
Seeing that he was about to fall into the Red River, this Red River is the nemesis of the true qi of ice and snow, once he falls, he will immediately have the same fate as the cloak.
The whirlpool was terrifying, the real fire was pressing, the cloaked man leaned down, and the cloak fell into the red river, turning into smoke and disappearing in an instant. Revealing his supple and slender body.
With words, the cloaked man's mind floated, and then, with a vigorous blow, the skin filled with real gunpowder mud smashed like a boulder!
Then he forced the cloaked man to appear, and in one move the two switched places, forcing the cloaked man to the river, and he returned to the center of the whirlpool, and when he returned to his ice lotus, he was still holding the stem under the leather bag.
Gong Yin's own ice and snow true qi can't have any effect on the real fire silt, but the skin itself is cultivated by the real fire silt underneath, so it is naturally the best filling.
After the transparent human body lost the purple vine, only the transparent skin was left, and it was grabbed into a small ball. When Gong Yin closed the pool, he quietly took it in his hand while it was dark, and he patrolled by the Red River, actually quietly putting the skin hidden in his sleeve into the Red River, filled with the real fire silt of the Red River.
The moment he fell, he saw that the thing that fell from his back was actually the transparent human body that cultivated the purple vine.
There was a loud bang, and the thing grazed his waist and smashed into the whirlpool beneath him, and the water waves were turbulent, the ice rose and fell, and he was unstable and planted backwards.
In his busy schedule, he only had time to turn around quickly.
Gong Yin had already left the Red River and stood opposite him, three feet away, all the attention of the cloaked man was on Gong Yin opposite, and he knew that the mud in the Red River was really hot, and any ice true qi could not be controlled, so he didn't expect that the attack would come from behind.
The cloaked man was originally standing on a whirlpool by the Red River, stepping on the ice he had made, and he didn't dare to step on Gong Yin's ice lotus again, so as not to make a hole in the center of his foot.
As soon as the words fell, a large puff of fiery red liquid suddenly threw itself on the cloaked man.
Gong Yin suddenly said, "...... It's time to die! ”
The cloaked man pricked up his ears and listened intently, wondering what Gong Yin would say.
"Finally." Gong Yin said lightly, "You have always been ......"
It seems calm, but in fact it is shocking.
The cloaked man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he squinted the corners of his lips and smiled.
"You are very familiar with the sect, the rivers and lakes, and the court, so your identity should be a combination of the three."
The cloaked man's eyes flashed.
"Your purpose isn't necessarily to kill me or anyone, you're more trying to train yourself. You don't want to uproot your enemies, you're waiting for your time. ”
There seemed to be surprise in the eyes of the cloaked man, and he did not admit or deny it.
"You're not alone, you have quite a few helpers, and it's likely that they're all dressed up like you in order to confuse the public."
The man smiled silently, as if to be expected that he could deduce this.
"Let me guess you." Gong Yin didn't expect him to answer at all, and said lightly, "This Red River under the Purple Pool, although the people of the Ice and Snow True Qi can't get through, if you can really go over, take out the hot stone in the center of the Red River, you can resist the cold qi depression caused by the cultivation of the Ice and Snow True Qi, so, you and I, martial arts come from the same source." ”
The man didn't speak, seemed to be laughing, laughing at it was a boring question.
"What I want to know more is, who are you?" Gong Yin raised his gaze and stared at the blurry black shadow, which had been lying on the road between him and Jing Hengbo, as vague as a ghost, and it was only today that he collided face to face.
"Don't you see through this? He also pierced the soles of my feet with ice lotus. The cloaked man laughed and didn't seem nervous.
"I want to cross the Red River, but I can only freeze the Red River with all my might." Gong Yin said expressionlessly, "But this kind of confrontation will definitely exhaust all my true strength, and when the time comes, whether you sit back and enjoy it, seize the true treasure of this Shang country, or take advantage of my exhaustion and kill me, you will win after all." ”
The man laughed and said in a dumb voice, "I just want to see how the ice and snow are really qi and how to survive this extremely hot place." Of course, if you could freeze this red river, wouldn't I be in trouble? ”
Gong Yin didn't look ahead at all, only stared at the red river, and the corners of his lips sneered slightly, "You have been hiding in the purple pool, deliberately letting me see the water eye at the bottom, I crossed the whirlpool with the ice lotus, and you also stepped on my ice lotus all the way." Before the ambush in this Red River, do you want to borrow my strength to get the things at the bottom of the Red River, or do you want to give me a force and push me to be buried in the Red River? ”
His voice was slightly hoarse, and his pitch flickered so far and near that it was difficult to pinpoint where he was hiding.
Someone in the darkness smiled lowly and sighed: "I still can't hide it from you......"
There was a look of boredom between his eyebrows, "Come out." ”
The red river flows, the whirlpool rotates, the darkness is still so thick, Gong Yin stands quietly in the whirlpool, and there is no figure in sight on the opposite side.
The man was also shocked to be fooled, and with a single fist, with a "bang", the ice wall shattered, and his figure disappeared.
Then a hazy figure was reflected on the ice wall, slender, ghostly soft, wearing a black cloak.
Gong Yin's body had already retreated like lightning, retreating above the ice and snow lotus flowers in the whirlpool, and with a move of his hand, the ice lotus flowers floating and sinking in the whirlpool flew up, shattered in mid-air, re-transformed and condensed, and turned into a thin ice wall, blocking in front of the red river.
A strong wind rushed to Gong Yin's back.
There was a faint muffled snort, it was the sound of a person's patience after being injured, and there was a faint blood in the medicinal fragrance and fire.
"Bang." With a bang, behind him, the ice and snow lotus flower that was floating in the whirlpool suddenly doubled in size, and the sharp ice edge petals bloomed and stretched, like countless short swords suddenly showing cold light.
At the bottom of Gong Yin's sleeve, his fingers suddenly flicked silently.
Someone breathed hard in the darkness. A faint wind sneaked closer, just behind Gong Yin.
Gong Yin's body seemed to tilt.
The red and black flames flashed and flickered, but then, another flame burst up, brighter and more intense than just now, like the tongue of the god of fire, licking towards the soles of Gong Yin's boots.
In the sticky and stagnant darkness, there seemed to be a slight sound, a scorching light, which was faintly bright.
The ice and snow true qi is most afraid of the extremely hot environment, and Gong Yin's body is stunned in mid-air.
It was dried in an instant.
Suddenly, the calm river "roared", and a red and black fire rushed up, and before it was close, the damp moss on the mountain walls on all sides suddenly turned into gray debris and sprinkled one after another.
Gong Yin's figure has already flown above the Red River.
In the darkness, there seemed to be a slight sound, and those snow-white ice lotuses that flickered all the way seemed to shake more violently.
Gong Yin jumped up.
The tumbling roar of the Red River gradually quieted down, turning into a calm pool of water, which seemed to be passable.
And it seems to be listening to something.
Gong Yin was patrolling by the Red River, his sleeves hanging slightly, as if he was looking for a place to cross, and seemed to be thinking about something.
There was the sound of wind in the darkness, like the wind caused by the roaring waves of the Red River.
Those snow-white ice lotuses were like the whites of their eyes, blinking faintly.
The fragrance of Chinese medicine in the air is stronger, the darkness is thick, sticky, except for the snow-white shimmer, there is no human figure on the other side.
Behind him, those ice lotus flowers did not melt, floating and sinking in each whirlpool, and the dark light flashed and flickered.
But he stopped before this section of the Red River.
This section of the area is several zhang wide, but fortunately, there is no whirlpool, and he can fly across without the help of the ice lotus.
There were countless rhizomes and vines fluttering in the red liquid, and the ice lotus flowers were crushed when they fell, or vaporized by the heat.
At the very center of the subterranean river was a tumbling magma-like thing, roaring and bright red.
It is the most beautiful style between heaven and earth.
The ice lotus in his hand kept flying out, crossing the lotus on the whirlpool, his clothes were like the wind, and the lotus was born step by step.
Above the green whirlpool, the ice and snow lotus flowers are shining brightly.
The next whirlpool was circling and waiting, while the second Ice Lotus had already hovered and flew out.
The ice lotus flower was as thin as paper, falling on the whirlpool, not being swept away by the whirlpool, and his toes were then lightly touched on the lotus, swinging one after another, and he had already crossed the whirlpool.
An ice and snow flower like a lotus flower.
Snow-white ice edges suddenly appeared between the fingers, and the ice edges quickly combined, layer upon layer, into countless complex and dense petals.
Gong Yin let go.
The last moment before the soles of your feet are about to step onto the whirlpool.
From beginning to end, he didn't even try to buffer or borrow strength, and the speed of his downward rush became faster and faster, and at the bottom of the cliff, a huge whirlpool was hovering faintly, like a deep mouth, ready to swallow him.
Looking up from the bottom, you can see the iron blue cliff wall, the dark purple pool, and in the dark space, the snow-white slender figure, like an ice sword, stabbed down from the sky.
His robe rose upside down, and swept a straight line in the wind.
Ten feet high cliff, flying down.
Gong Yin only looked down for a moment, and then fell directly.
What's more, the whirlpools at the bottom are continuous, implicating each other, and there are small whirlpools in the big whirlpool, and there is not even a stone for footholding, and the depth cannot be seen, which can be said to be difficult to go down the cliff, and it is even more difficult to stand on the cliff.
Gong Yin's face was expressionless, as if he had not found anything, and only focused on looking at the whirlpool below. Because of the sinking of the boulder above, the water level of the underground river has risen, but it is still far from the location of the purple pool, and the cliff wall goes straight up and down, nearly 90 degrees.
As soon as the boulder closed, the light suddenly dimmed, and the figure that seemed to be real and illusory was no longer visible.
The figure attracted his attention, and without raising his head, he threw the purple vine upward, the vine had just passed through the gap in the boulder, and with a bang, the boulder closed, and the bottom purple diaphragm pool was closed.
I wanted to answer Jing Hengbo to reassure her, but out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure on the dark cliff opposite the pool.
Gong Yin's eyes flashed, and at this time he heard the shout of Jing Hengbo above, and when he looked up, the Shuanglong boulder was about to close.
At the same time, the rhizome-like thing that implicated the parasitic human body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, the stem was fuller and rounder, and a pale red liquid flowed upward along the stem, and those torn apart by him were slowly recovering.
The whirlpools are of different colors, but they all shimmer with a ghostly light, showing that they have special ingredients, and the air is filled with special aromas and medicinal gases, which are refreshing for the body and mind.
He was about to fly up, when he suddenly heard a sound under his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that under the purple pool, there was a fault sometime, and there were tumbling whirlpools under the fault, looking like countless deep eyes, staring at the heavens and the earth.
Those who are familiar with the mechanism know that this kind of sealing boulder is the last level of the treasure place, and manpower cannot open it at all.
Knowing the reason, he was able to untie Jing Hengbo's heart knot, he was slightly relieved, and was about to get up, when suddenly the top of his head shook, and when he looked up, on both sides of the cliff, the Shuanglong boulder was slowly closing.
The purple vine itself has a certain hallucinogenic component, which parasitizes the body of the purple vine, so it is also possible to create an illusion for people.
As soon as Gong Yin flipped the thing, he couldn't help but let out a "huh", he found that under different lights and angles, looking at the transparent human body, the shape seemed to be different.
It was a long stem, all the way down to the bottom.
The transparent human body that had been stripped of the purple vine was now fragmented, lying on its stomach like a lump of soft rubber, but Gong Yin couldn't lift the thing completely, because under that thing, there was something involved.
I don't understand why Jing Hengbo has such a big reaction to such a monster, Gong Yin reached out and pulled the thing up.
He was looking at the transparent human body parasitic purple vine, and in his eyes, it was a monster that resembled a humanoid shape, but with an ugly appearance, and at first glance, he knew that it was not a human being.
Gong Yin lowered his head, silent because of Jing Hengbo's words, and did not see the meeting between Jing Hengbo and Long Yin above.
Time went back to three days ago, the moment when the Purple Pond suddenly closed.
