Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Peculiar Town There is no room for optimism
Just when the sky was slightly bright, the three of Xingyue finally walked out of the dark and deep dense forest and came to a quiet small city.
Taking advantage of the faint light in the sky, Xingyue gradually frowned, and he found that although the small city in front of him was small, it was very unusual.
I saw that this small city is surrounded by green mountains on all sides, and there are nine steep mountain peaks around it, guarding this small city tightly.
Moreover, Xingyue also found that these nine peaks actually presented the shape of "Nine Dragons Playing Pearls", gathering the aura in the sky in nine directions to the center of the small city, and a large river gracefully and soothingly passed around the city, and the small city was quite majestic from a distance.
The low and quaint city walls make Xingyue see the smooth and winding streets of the city at a glance, as well as the quaint buildings of different heights on both sides of the street, which make the small city look so quiet and quiet, everything seems so natural and full of endless charm.
Seeing that Shi Lei, who was dying, and Huofeng, who was sluggish, urgently needed to cultivate, Xingyue instinctively sensed that there was no danger in the small city, so she walked into the small city.
At this time, the city was unusually clean, and occasionally one or two people would walk by, but they were also in a hurry, as if they were in a hurry, and they had no time to take care of Xingyue and their party.
Xingyue carried Shi Lei on his back, wearing a black robe, and walked around the small city with the fire phoenix, found an inn in a secluded place and walked in.
Entering the inn, there was a fragrant medicinal fragrance coming to the nostrils, Xingyue suddenly felt refreshed, and the previous chaotic mood instantly became calm, and at this time, it seemed that even the seriously injured Shi Lei was slightly better.
"This inn is a bit unusual!"
Xingyue muttered to herself in her heart.
I saw that at this time, there was an old man on the counter in the inn who was concentrating on sorting out all kinds of spiritual medicinal materials.
On the rocking chair next to the counter, there was a bright-eyed girl reading an ancient alchemy book with relish, looking at her expression, as if she was in a state of intoxication, as if she had not noticed the arrival of Xingyue and her party.
Immediately, I saw that the old man raised his head and glanced at Xingyue and the others, put down the medicinal materials he was picking up in his hand, smiled at Xingyue, and led them to the guest room.
During the whole process, the old man didn't say a word, which made Xingyue have an indescribable mysterious feeling in his heart, and Xingyue, who was secretly running the "Heart Sutra", clearly noticed that the old man had just looked at him with a flash of light in his eyes, and then hid it.
But with that flash of light, Xingyue felt as if his whole body had been seen through, but after he realized that the old man had no malicious intentions, Xingyue didn't care too much.
And the girl was quietly looking at the ancient books from beginning to end, and she was not affected at all by the arrival of Xingyue and her party.
After a while, the old man who led Xingyue and his party into the guest room returned, only to see the old man come to the girl's side, and said respectfully to the girl: "Third Miss, I think these three young people are not simple, especially the young man in the black robe, the old servant is a little unable to see through, and the young man's eyes are so mysterious, the old servant actually feels that he has been seen through, although he is only a spiritual realm cultivator!"
"As for that girl, the old servant felt a strong aura of flames, and the person on the back of that young man exudes a pure earth aura, but his aura of life is a little weak, and the situation is a little bad!"
"Oh, Yaobo, I am very curious about that strange young man, but I don't know if he is proficient in refining medicine, I'll try him tomorrow!"
I saw that the girl raised her head and looked at the guest room where Xingyue and her party were staying, and said with interest.
Seeing this, the old man shook his head with a wry smile.
"Third Miss, you are really a little medicine idiot! I was only interested in refining medicine in my life, and the old servant just thought that that young man was an extraordinary person, and it was worth getting acquainted with by Third Miss!"
"Well, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it, but I'm only interested in alchemy geniuses, anything else, unless this person can have any special abilities!"
The girl smiled at the old man, and continued to immerse herself in the ancient alchemy books.
"Hey, the third lady is a medicine nerd, and she knows how to immerse herself in the pharmacopoeia all day long!"
The old man sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Uncle Yao, are you saying in your heart that I'm a medicine nerd! In fact, you're not like me, immersed in these medicinal herbs all day long! You are laughing at fifty steps and a hundred steps!"
"Uh...... Hehe...... The third lady is right!"
was broken by the girl's thoughts, and the old servant couldn't help but be embarrassed!
After that, the old man continued to sort out the medicinal herbs on the counter.
After the three of Xingyue entered the room, they immediately put Shi Lei on the bed, and began to activate the Earth Sacred Heart, guiding the Origin Qi emanating from the Holy Heart to begin to recover Shi Lei's injuries.
I saw that Xingyue was sitting next to Shi Lei, and his mind began to communicate with the Sacred Heart of the Earth.
After a while, I saw that the Earth Sacred Heart emitted an extremely dazzling earthy yellow light enveloping Shi Lei's body, and the extremely pure earth spiritual power seeped into Shi Lei's body, and began to repair Shi Lei's damaged origin!
And the fire phoenix on the side also began to attract the sacred heart of fire to release the power of the origin and began to nourish his weak soul.
Suddenly, the room was filled with life, and the breath of the earth and the breath of fire reflected each other and shone brightly.
At this moment, the old man who was sorting out the medicinal materials and the girl who was immersed in the classics raised their heads sharply almost at the same moment and locked their eyes on the room where Xingyue and the three of them were.
The two glanced at each other, and the girl said excitedly to the old man, "Yaobo, you also feel it, right?" So rich vitality, so pure origin qi, it seems that these three people must have a treasure on them, and the origin is definitely not simple, I must meet them for a while if I find a chance!"
"Third Miss, you sensed it right, the old servant also sensed it, and it is the pure breath of the earth and the flames, if the old man's guess is correct, the treasures you said should be the legendary 'Earth Sacred Heart' and 'Flame Sacred Heart', and only these treasures can exude such a pure origin breath, Third Miss, if you want these two holy relics, the old servant can kill them and win the treasure!"
I saw that the old man said with a solemn expression, where was there still the previous half-point twilight, and the light in his eyes flickered, faintly revealing a trace of murderous aura.
"Yao Bo's words are wrong! How can we do this kind of murderous and treasure snatching business, how can we afford the title of 'Medicine Clan', even though these treasures are now of great benefit to us and full of infinite temptations for us, but we can't do this, don't have this kind of thinking in the future, otherwise I will be really angry!"
The girl said calmly to the old man, she had no intention of taking the holy relic at all.
"Yes, Third Miss, the old servant knows that he is wrong! The old servant should not have such an idea, this goes against the will of my medicine clan, and disgraces my medicine clan, there will be no such thoughts in the future! It seems that although the old servant is in the emperor realm, he is indeed inferior to the third miss in terms of mood, and the third miss will definitely be able to reach the height of the patriarch in the future!"
I saw that at this time, the old man's face was full of respect, and he said to the girl respectfully.
And the Xingyue in the room at the moment when the old man revealed the killing intention, Xingyue sensed it all of a sudden, and the hairs on his body stood up, and he immediately put away his sacred heart, his expression was full of nervousness.
Looking at Xingyue's highly vigilant eyes, the fire phoenix on the side immediately put away the Flame Sacred Heart, ready to urge the Nine Flame Emperor Ding to attack at any time.
"Huh! Such a high level of vigilance! can detect the killing intent I unleashed in an instant. ”
"How can a person with such a holy relic not have a certain means of saving his life! And I have a hunch that even if you make a move, you may not be able to take down these three people, so let's put an enchantment on the three of them and express our apologies!
The girl commanded to the old man beside her.
"Yes, Third Miss, the old servant owes it this time!"
After that, I saw that the old man's gray sleeves waved and laid an enchantment.
After that, the old man continued to arrange the herbs, as if nothing had happened.
And Xingyue's side, after feeling that the surroundings of the room seemed to be isolated, his expression became more and more solemn, and Huo Feng obviously noticed the changes around him, and was about to urge the Nine Flame Emperor Ding to break through, Xingyue on the side held down Huo Feng's hand and whispered in his ear: "Wait a little longer......"
In this way, time passed by second by second, but Xingyue felt as if time was forbidden, and the palms of her hands were soaked with sweat because of the high tension.
After a while, there was still no movement, Xingyue finally relieved her heart at this time, and said to Huofeng: "It seems that it's okay, if the other party wanted to attack us, it is estimated that he would have made a move a long time ago, but now he has laid an enchantment." ”
"It is estimated that when we used the Sacred Heart, the breath released aroused the peeping heart of the old man and the girl, or they wanted to imprison us, in short, we are not in danger for the time being, while we quickly recover our strength now, it is estimated that tomorrow we will know what is going on. ”
After that, Xingyue began to urge the Earth Sacred Heart again to continue to input the Origin Qi for Shi Lei to recover from his injuries, and the Fire Phoenix also continued to absorb the Origin Power of the Flame Sacred Heart to make up for his damaged Divine Soul Power little by little.
Under Xingyue's full treatment, after about half a day, Shi Lei's eyelids finally jumped.
Then, I saw Shi Lei vomit two mouthfuls of blood, and then woke up, but Shi Lei's face was indeed unusually pale.
Seeing the stars and moon next to him who were constantly urging the sacred heart of the earth, Shi Lei couldn't help but show an apologetic look, as if he understood what Shi Lei was going to say.
I saw that Xingyue made a silent gesture, signaling Shi Lei not to speak, and continued to close his eyes and meditate.
However, due to the limitations of Xingyue's cultivation, Xingyue still can't better stimulate and urge the earth's sacred heart to release a more refined origin power, and now although Shi Lei has woken up, the origin injury in Shi Lei's body has basically not recovered, and Shi Lei still feels a faint pain all over his body, and the pain is unbearable.
And the situation on the Fire Phoenix's side is not optimistic, although the power of the Divine Soul has been replenished by nearly half, but it has indeed become slower and slower in the future, mainly due to cultivation, and it is impossible to make better use of the Flame Sacred Heart to supplement the power of the Divine Soul that has been overdrawn.
Looking at Shi Lei, who was still in a bad situation beside him, and Huo Feng, who was in a bad situation on the side, Xingyue knew in his heart that if it dragged on like this, the situation would only get worse and worse, and it would become more and more uncontrollable, so Xingyue made a decision.
I saw that Xingyue put away the Earth Sacred Heart and the Flame Sacred Heart, and gave an order to the Fire Phoenix, ignoring the worries of the Fire Phoenix and Shi Lei, and walked straight out of the room and out of the enchantment.
