Chapter 28: The Holy White Lotus (I)
It's just that it's too late. The curse from Flagg has been applied. Xuanyuan Zun watched as Tessa turned unusually pale very quickly. Not only the complexion, but the skin all over the body is white and abnormal, without the slightest blood.
After a few seconds, Tessa felt a rush of heat deep in his throat, followed by a nausea urge. Subconsciously used his hands to helpless his mouth and nose, but unexpectedly found that his hands were covered with dark red blood!
"I'm ...... What's wrong? "In the face of such a situation, even Tessa cannot be calm. She cast a plea at Xuanyuan Zun, but soon she felt that her whole body had no strength.
Blood began to ooze from the nostrils, glasses, ears and other organs! It's a symptom of constant bleeding! Tessa looks very bad!
"Taisha...... Taisha! β
Xuanyuan Zun rushed to Taisha's side and gently hugged Taisha who had fallen to the ground in his arms, and an extremely violent feeling of heartache continued to hit Xuanyuan Zun's originally cold heart.
"Quick, you choose to log out of the game, quick!"
However, Tessa's logout button has been locked. She simply couldn't quit the game.
"Xuanyuan Venerable...... I'm sorry......"
Tessa was extremely weak, and such a pale smile was already her limit.
"This afternoon...... I, I shouldn't have said that about you...... I'm sorry......" Tessa reluctantly smiled, took out the dagger in his hand and wanted to hand it to Xuanyuan Zun, but it quickly fell due to lack of strength.
"Tesa ......"
Xuanyuan Zun held Taisha's hand tightly, although his tone was still cold, but at this moment he was praying that this terrible status quo could change!
"I know, I know your name is Xuanyuan Zun."
Tessa felt his breathing harder. As if she was so sleepy, her eyes couldn't help but close. Xuanyuan Zun embraced Taisha more into his arms. But the coldness of her body was still there.
"You're just like me...... It's time to change your duplicity! β¦β¦ I'm sorry...... To the people around you...... A little better......"
Inhaling hard, Tessa uttered the last sentence - "You, you must ...... well"
As soon as she said this, Tessa's body instantly went limp and lost consciousness as if the power had been cut off.
"Don't talk about it...... I'll figure it out! Believe me! Believe me! β
Tessa's life force was constantly passing, but even though Tessa was no longer conscious, Xuanyuan Zun still said this to her over and over again.
"Why? Why! β
In the midst of the rage, Xuanyuan looked up to the sky and roared! Suddenly, it began to rain heavily in the sky. Grim lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating the shattered village, only to find it covered in a blood-red aura. At this moment, Xuanyuan Zun couldn't comfort himself with games anymore with everything in front of him. The right hand slammed the ground hard, and the whole ground cracked into a long and narrow gap!
"No, there must be some other way! There must still be one! β
Xuanyuan Zun was unwilling to admit defeat like this.
- You can leave me, but not today! Not in such a way as to do so!
Xuanyuan Zun never believed in fate, he only believed that man would win the day!
Covering Tessa's mouth and Solo nose with his hand, the originally violent vibration force was extremely gentle at the moment. The gas was slowly injected into Taisha's body, and the blood that could not clot slowed down the flow of Xuanyuan Zun slightly stopped Taisha's blood.
Xuanyuan Zun calmed himself down over and over again. But I couldn't think of a way. At this moment, an old man staggered out of the forest. Xuanyuan Zun recognized him at a glance, he was the head of this village - he had always been dissatisfied with Xuanyuan Zun's exploitation of the villagers, so he had a conflict with Xuanyuan Zun.
βοΌβ Xuanyuan Zun didn't understand why he chose to appear at this time. He should have taken refuge with the villagers.
- Maybe he's here to laugh at me? After all, I can't even protect my own people.
Xuanyuan Zun couldn't help but think so. He was ready to be said. It's just that the village chief stood in front of Xuanyuan Zun, and the first thing he said was three words - thank you!
Xuanyuan Zun looked up at the village chief, the elder's face was still full of majesty, but it was also full of sincerity.
"Although it was you who protected the villagers and defeated the invaders. But the village has been destroyed, and many villagers have lost their lives...... It's all so bad, we've never experienced anything like it! β
Xuanyuan Zun looked at the village chief and said, "I won't apologize for this!" β
"But I still want to thank you!"
The village chief repeated these two words again, thanks!
"You protected the village, there's no doubt about that."
With a sigh, the village chief handed Xuanyuan Zun an ancient but well-preserved stone tablet.
"Although the village is destroyed, the people who survive are all kindling, and they will restore the village." The village chief said earnestly, "But when a person dies, he will never come back...... Take it and save people! β
Xuanyuan Zun took the slate, and on the slab was a map.
"The Holy White Lotus is the heart of this world." The village chief told Xuanyuan Zundao, "Legend has it that no matter what disease or poison can be cured there. Go ahead and give it a try! β
Xuanyuan Zun clearly saw that the location recorded on the stone tablet was in the depths of this forest!
Although he didn't thank him, Xuanyuan Zun still nodded towards the old village chief. He's not a man of words, at least not yet.
"It's okay, everything is fine!"
Xuanyuan Zun hugged Taisha in his arms.
But when he had just taken a few steps, Taisha's voice suddenly appeared in Xuanyuan Zun's mind again - "Be kind to the people around you......"
- Lo! What about them?
This sentence violently touched the heart of this seemingly cold teenager. He walked towards a pool of blood not far away, and it was Lo and his grandfather lying in the pool of blood.
"Both...... Is it dead......" Xuanyuan Zun didn't know what to say. Should he curse fate? No, he never had fate. But at this moment, he couldn't help but curse fate! "To hell with it!" He cursed.
However, there is still hope after all! Xuanyuan Zun found a point of light in that dim state bar seedβthere was a person who was in a very poor state, but it had not yet returned to zero! Xuanyuan Zun immediately searched for this survivor, and it just so happened that this only survivor was Wei!
That's fate. Fate played a little joke on Xuanyuan Zun, and Wei, who he didn't like the most, turned out to be the happiest thing for him now. He ran over and picked up the emaciated Wei together. "We must save them!" , such thoughts took root in Xuanyuan Zun's heart.
Xuanyuan Zun unleashed all his strength, and the pressure brought by the spatial rift composed of air rifts made Xuanyuan Zun fly at high speed. And the white crack that accompanied Xuanyuan Zun's side was as bright as wings at this moment. If someone who doesn't know sees it, they probably think of him as an angel, right?
"Hold on a little longer, and you'll be there soon!"
Xuanyuan Zun said to Tessa and Vi.
As Xuanyuan Zun got closer and closer to the place engraved on the stone tablet, more and more intense vitality was emerging. This feeling is surprisingly obvious, so obvious that it can be directly experienced by the sensations of the body! Although the status bar of the two of them has not changed substantially, the blood color seems to be a little better!
It's ridiculous to look at the face without looking at the status bar in the game. But Xuanyuan Zun also felt a hint of relief and hope. Directly over the highest mountain range, the severe cold and thin oxygen at the height made Xuanyuan Zun a little uncomfortable. But he still sped up despite his body. He knew that Tessa and Vi were more dangerous. Finally, through the clouds, Xuanyuan Zun saw a green forest! There seems to be a huge lake in the middle of the woods. The flowers and trees on both sides of the lake are so luxuriant, emitting dots of bright green light! And the middle is a slim white lotus! It is shining.
This is exactly what the stone monument calls the "core"!
