Chapter 56: Before the End of the Trial
As expected, at dawn on the second day, Li Erguang's figure was late.
As soon as they met, Li Erguang hugged Bai Dongqing fiercely, and immediately wiped away the tears condensed in his eyes, and said heavily: "Good brother, I knew you would be fine." ”
After not seeing him for a few days, Bai Dongqing was pleasantly surprised to find that Li Erguang's breath was calm, his strength had actually improved, and he had actually stepped into the triple layer of calcining bones.
Thinking about this period of time, Li Erguang secretly hid and kept cultivating day and night, and it was only a matter of time before he was promoted to the Bone Refining Triple.
In an instant, the joy on Li Erguang's face slowly faded, and he said worriedly: "But I have bad news for you." ”
Li Erguang sighed, and then said: "During this time, I secretly hibernated, and I got the news by chance. Liu Sheng had already gathered the remaining fellow sects and prepared to jointly defend against the Daredevil army. Li Erguang paused for a moment before continuing: "However, Liu Sheng also said that everyone must draw a line with you, otherwise they will be enemies of him." ”
After Li Erguang finished speaking, he didn't forget to look at Zhao Wudao next to him.
Zhao Wudao's face changed slightly, and after a little silence, he spoke: "Don't worry, Brother Bai is kind to me, and I will never do anything to betray my faith." ”
"I understand Brother Zhao's affection, but Liu Sheng's move is intended to target me, and you have no benefit from being with me. Bai Dongqing's face was calm, and he couldn't see the slightest fluctuation.
This sentence made Zhao Wudao feel relieved, in the final analysis, Zhao Wudao didn't want to offend Liu Sheng to death because of Bai Dongqing. Seeing Bai Dongqing say this now, Zhao Wudao said with a little hesitation: "This..."
"Brother Zhao doesn't need to mind, besides, you still have Yazhi by your side, if you offend Liu Sheng and affect your two brothers and sisters, I can't help it. In that case, let's leave it at that. Bai Dongqing clenched his fists slightly and said softly.
That Zhao Wudao's face was embarrassed, and he wanted to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, but he didn't think about it, and Zhao Yazhi on the side was unhappy, "Brother, since people have helped us, we can't abandon our companions." ”
"Thank you sister for your kindness, I have made up my mind, you should leave early. Bai Dongqing glanced at Zhao Yazhi in slight surprise, and immediately gave an order to expel the guest.
Zhao Yazhi looked at Zhao Wudao resentfully and kept saying, "Brother, you can persuade him quickly." ”
Zhao Wudao's eyes flashed a little struggle, and then he said: "If we follow Brother Bai, not only will we not help him, but he may also harm him, so we can't be rash." ”
"Brother, I didn't expect you to say such ruthless words. Tears swirled in Zhao Yazhi's eyes, Zhao Wudao felt ashamed, he didn't dare to look at her, he could only shake his head and sigh frequently.
Seeing that Zhao Wudao had made up her mind, Zhao Yazhi's heart was half cold, and then she gritted her teeth and sent the sword to Bai Dongqing's hand, saying, "This sword will be left to senior brother for self-defense." ”
Zhao Wudao's mouth opened slightly, and he wanted to stop it, but in the end he couldn't say it.
Bai Dongqing's face was heavy, and he just wanted to refuse, but Li Erguang took it, "In this way, I will thank you for Dongqing." ”
Li Erguang was already coveting this sword, even if he couldn't get it, he wouldn't see it fall into the hands of others. Seeing Zhao Yazhi's generosity, he naturally agreed.
"Li Erguang, return it to others. Bai Dongqing's face suddenly turned cold.
Li Erguang said dissatisfiedly like no one: "If you don't do it, you're going to die, why are you still stubborn?"
"You!" Bai Dongqing's heart was on fire, and Zhao Yazhi immediately said, "Senior Brother Li is right, don't be polite at this time." This sword is not safe even in my hands, so it is better to give it to my brother than to fall into the hands of the gangsters. ”
Seeing Zhao Yazhi say this, Bai Dongqing couldn't say anything, so he could only clench his fists and say: "Okay, even if I borrow this sword, if I don't die in the next day, I will come to the door to return it in person." ”
The two parties split up and merged, and eventually parted ways.
Bai Dongqing didn't want to drag down the Zhao brothers and sisters because of himself. As for Li Erguang, he has completely offended Liu Sheng, and it is helpless to take him with him.
The two lines were thus separated.
Li Erguang asked in a muffled voice, "What are your plans?"
A ruthless look appeared on Bai Dongqing's face, and he said in a deep voice: "Since Liu Sheng wants to put me to death, then we can't do without it." ”
"What are your plans?" Li Erguang saw Bai Dongqing say this, and knew that Bai Dongqing had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Originally, Bai Dongqing wanted to take advantage of the remaining half a month to try his luck in the extremely cold waterhole to see if he could find something. But now, Bai Dongqing has changed his plans.
The purpose of Liu Sheng's move is nothing more than to isolate himself. When the time comes, it will naturally come to the door. Since this is the case, Bai Dongqing carefully selected a place, which can be regarded as a surprise for Liu Sheng.
"Let's go to the Flaming Mountain. Bai Dongqing said slowly.
On the way, the two were silent.
When the two of them approached the hinterland of the Flame Mountain, Bai Dongqing asked, "Have you found any traces of the night demon during this time?"
Li Erguang shook his head, "No, since the last battle, these night demons seem to have disappeared out of thin air, and they haven't seen night demons haunt during this time." ”
"It's not normal. Bai Dongqing silently spit out a few words.
"In your opinion, what should I do?" Li Erguang asked in a thoughtful tone in Zhao Wudao's tone, and seeing that Bai Dongqing did not answer, he hurriedly said: "Don't you like to analyze the most, you analyze and analyze the situation." ”
Bai Dongqing shook his head helplessly, and looked at Li Erguang with a rather sympathetic gaze, "Rotten wood can't be carved, it's ignorant." Think about it with your pig brain, what the hell is going on?"
Li Erguang scratched his ears and cheeks, and finally suddenly realized, "Are they being killed by us and hiding?"
"Even if you threw a mouthful of dung at the Night Demon that day, they wouldn't be able to let you go. Bai Dongqing quipped. Li Erguang's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said, "I'm not doing this for everyone?"
The two walked to a dry riverbed, Bai Dongqing sat on the ground, and said, "It's here." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Erguang and the second monk didn't understand what he meant, and Bai Dongqing said in a tricky way: "Wait!"
"Waiting for whom?"
"Wait for Liu Sheng and the night demon to arrive. Bai Dongqing said confidently. ”
Li Erguang was puzzled, "How are you sure they will come?"
Bai Dongqing didn't bother to explain to him, and asked rhetorically: "Let me ask you, what would you do if you were Liu Sheng?"
Li Erguang thought for a moment, and then was relieved, "If I were him, I would definitely try to find you." At this point, Li Erguang suddenly came to his senses and said, "You mean, Liu Sheng and the others will lie dormant and wait for the polar trial to end before they make a move?"
"That's right. Bai Dongqing was a little relieved, and couldn't help but feel that Li Erguang was not hopelessly stupid.
After such a combing, Li Erguang reacted completely. At the moment, he couldn't help but cast an admiring look at Bai Dongqing, but Li Erguang still said with some unease: "Let's just wait so blatantly?"
"Otherwise?" Bai Dongqing asked rhetorically.
Li Erguang was speechless, and he held back for a long time before he said: "Aren't you worried that Liu Sheng will not play cards according to common sense?"
Bai Dongqing didn't reply and pointed to the flaming mountain behind him, and said, "We have a backer." ”
Li Erguang's face became quite exciting, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "High." ”
Just when everyone was worried, at the foot of the Flame Mountain, the two figures took off their guard without heart, set up a bonfire freely, and ate game.
Of course, the two were not idle during this time. Bai Dongqing even used the sword given by Zhao Yazhi to practice the nineteen swords at all times.
Day after day, half a month passed quietly.
On the last day, it rained heavily in the gray sky.
The night seemed to have come especially early on this day, and there was a sense of murder in the air.
Figures swept from a distance, and in a moment, hundreds of monks gathered not far from the two of them.
Looking at the group of people who were pressed by the black, Li Erguang lowered his voice and said, "You really said it." ”
This matter had long been expected by Bai Dongqing, and he concluded that Liu Sheng would inevitably come before the end of the polar trial. And choosing to do it on this day is also what Bai Dongqing expected.
Liu Sheng is not stupid, he knows the purpose of Bai Dongqing's move, and he will definitely not do it easily. Otherwise, if you anger the fire demon, no one will be able to get any benefit.
Only on this last day, carried until dawn, the living people will be teleported back to the sect, which is one of the reasons why Liu Sheng chose to do it tonight.
The atmosphere was unprecedentedly solemn, and the rain seemed to be more intense.
