XIV. Current Situation (I)
Sitting cross-legged in the darkness of nothingness, Zhang Longqian looked at Fengxing sitting in front of her, raised his hand and scratched his face lightly, and reluctantly smiled and spoke.
"Uh...... So...... I was stabbed to death by an inexplicable sword? ”
The corners of his eyes couldn't help jumping slightly at the verb used by Zhang Longqian, and Feng Xing replied, "No, it's just almost." ”
"Really?" Turning his head to look around, what greeted him was still the darkness of nothing, and Zhang Longqian couldn't help but think of what happened before.
When she clearly realized that she had been pierced by the black sword that suddenly appeared, her consciousness gradually blurred, and by the time she came to her senses, she was already in a colorful world, red, yellow, white, blue, and green mixed together, sometimes gray and gold, and a slight cyan swept by, changing all kinds of strange patterns in the dark, the whole world of abstract painting.
Before Zhang Longqian could figure out what was going on, a golden light suddenly appeared under the hood, enveloping her in an instant, and unimaginable pain suddenly swept like a monstrous wave, from the inside to the outside, as if something was stretching her body outward, first the bones, then the meridians, then the muscles, the skin, slowly tearing apart little by little, as if you could hear the slight sound of the cell rupture.
All the subtleties of his body exuded tearing pain together, and this terrible feeling made Zhang Long tremble uncontrollably, but for some reason he couldn't move half a minute, and he couldn't even let out a howl of pain.
In this dead silence, Zhang Longqian not only couldn't lose consciousness, but couldn't even divert her attention, just when she was in pain and about to collapse, the blue light suddenly flashed, and Fengxing appeared.
"Qing Ming!"
With this low voice, a little dark cyan light suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Longqian's chest, and it quickly grew larger at an extremely alarming speed. In an instant, Zhang Long's sneaking within a meter range was already full of dark cyan brilliance, and the golden light seemed to be squeezed out, and it could only shine with the blue light, as if he was trying to compress the blue light and reoccupy the small space where Zhang Longqian was, but although the blue light was dim, it seemed to be very stable, not affected by the golden light at all, quietly enveloping Zhang Longqian, and the tearing pain also stopped with the golden light being isolated.
Flashing into the range of Qingguang, Feng Xing grabbed Zhang Longqian's shoulder: "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, go." ”
The sleeves of the robe waved slightly, and the blue light flashed, so that Zhang Long subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, there was no dazzling golden light that brought great pain around him, but pure darkness.
The previous pain seemed to remain in his body, and Zhang Longqian Fengxing rested for a long time under the quiet gaze of Fengxing, and now he finally had the spirit to ask.
Remembering that she was stabbed by a sword after all, she thought she was dead at first, but after being denied by Fengxing, she was relieved, and finally remembered to thank her.
"Big brother, you saved me again!"
Zhang Longqian smiled and wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Feng Xing.
"Without further ado, you don't have much time."
Feng Xing's serious tone made Zhang Long dive for a moment, and after looking at the darkness around her, she wondered, "What's 'not much time'?" I'm just losing consciousness again and coming to the sea of consciousness, just wait for myself to go back! ”
Raising his eyes to look at Zhang Longqian, who was not nervous, Feng Xing seemed to have heard some joke, and hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed: "Do you think this is your sea of consciousness?" ”
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not. This is the inside of the Soul Suppression Jade, the place where you have seen the chaotic colors just now, is the sea of your consciousness. ”
Feng Xing's words were really a bit unexpected by Zhang Longqian, she immediately tried to follow Feng Xing's words, but she still had no clue, and could only say incomprehensibly: "How did my sea of consciousness become like that?" Big brother, why did you bring me to the Soul Suppression Jade? Anyway, why can my consciousness enter the Soul Suppression Jade? ”
Looking at Zhang Longqian's chaotic expression, Feng Xing was very calm and answered her question lightly.
"The sword that stabbed you is called 'Five Elements Sword', and you should have heard of it, it is the weapon of the demon king 'Wolf King', and its name is ......."
Before Feng Xing finished speaking, Zhang Longqian's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Five Elements Sword? The Five Elements Sword that is the first secret treasure with the Yin and Yang Eyes? Isn't his whereabouts unknown? How did it suddenly appear? ”
Gently pouting his tongue, Feng Xing frowned slightly dissatisfied: "Don't interrupt, listen to me." ”
Seeing that Zhang Longqian immediately closed his mouth obediently, Feng Xing continued to speak.
"The Five Elements Sword appeared here because it was sealed here by someone I don't know, and you have seen that seal, in what you called the 'School Forest', guarded by a powerful magic circle." After briefly talking about the question that Zhang Longqian asked later, and looking at her with a sudden expression, Feng Xing continued to explain, "The Five Elements Sword is named because it is not afraid of the Five Elements Spells, and can even disrupt the operation of the Five Elements spiritual power. For mages who rely on spells, the Five Elements Sword is almost a natural nemesis, and it is extremely sharp, destroying the body and soul of an enemy every time it hits. And you were stabbed by the Five Elements Sword, your body died, and in order to destroy your soul, the Five Elements Sword scattered into your body, which disturbed your own spiritual power, and your sea of consciousness was also chaotic. You also have a personal experience of how terrifying that golden light is, right? Seeing Zhang Longqian's nod of garlic immediately, he said again, "That golden light is the scattered Five Elements Sword." If I don't take you out of the sea of consciousness, it won't be long before you will be completely destroyed by it, and you will be in a real catastrophe. As for why you were able to enter the Soul Suppression Jade...... By now, you should be able to guess it, right? ”
Looking at Feng Xing's confident gaze, Zhang Longqian slowly remembered what Feng Xing had said about the two effects of this soul calming jade that had been hanging on her chest.
The first is "evil spirits", which means that when she encounters inhuman creatures, such as youkai, the Soul Suppressor will react, telling her that she is potentially dangerous.
The second is the "soul of the town".
What is the function of the so-called "soul suppression", Feng Xing did not elaborate, but Zhang Longqian can guess a few points just by this name, but it is precisely because she can barely guess it, so she can't help but widen her eyes at this moment, and her voice is a little trembling.
"Do you mean ...... 'me'...... Is it a 'soul'? ”
