Chapter 17: The Life of Oneness

The flames burned the curtains, and the scattered firelight illuminated Fengyang City, by the vast emerald river.

The noisy crowd calmed down and withdrew towards the center with an eerie silence, the flames on both sides as if they had met an invisible wall, unable to hurt the people running.

The lanterns hanging on the ribbons emitted an orange halo, shining on Shi Qing's face, which looked so shiny and dazzling.

Xiao Fang looked at that face, her eyes were in a trance, and she thought that when she first met, the young man was standing outside the glass window in a brown robe, holding a cyan bag in his hand, and his eyes were staring at the brightly colored bread, and his expression seemed to be surprised.

When I saw her at the counter, I smiled again, and in the sunlight, the light emitted by that smiling face was like tonight.

A smile appeared on her pale face, her voice was as weak as a fallen leaf floating in the wind, and she murmured, "Qing, you know, from the first time I saw you, I thought you were too dazzling. ”

A huge whirlpool emerged in the middle of the Emerald River, shattering the reflected starry sky, as if dragging everything into the endless abyss.

"You are like the hero of those adventure stories, the hero of legends, you always have a smile full of confidence at all times."

The river rolls and a huge octopus rises from the center of the whirlpool, eight tentacles breaking through the water, each looking like it can easily destroy three or four floors.

"Every time I see your smile, I have the courage to think about the future, but I often worry that this is a beautiful dream. As soon as I wake up, you'll disappear from my world, ahem. ”

Xiao Fang's pale face was flushed, the pupils of her eyes were a little dilated, and she said softly: "Because...... I'm not a princess. ”

The giant octopus swam to the shore, and the tumbling river flapped the bright lotus lanterns and slammed into the shore, causing the water to splash everywhere.

"If you have something to say, wait until later," Shi Qing comforted her, and then concentrated on healing her wounds, completely ignoring the octopus that was swimming over.

Xiao Fang shook her head, even an ordinary person can recognize how her body is.

I felt a feeling of weakness like never before, so weak that I was tired of moving a finger.

Perhaps, this is the sign before death, Xiao Fang thought so in her heart, but she was not as frightened as she expected, she thought that this must be because of Qing by her side.

When she gets along with Qing, she will always be short of laughter and courage.

It's a pity that she is not the princess, empress, or eldest lady in those adventure stories, nor does she have the strength to surpass ordinary people, she does not have rare beauty, and she does not have a sad past that people can't touch.

She is a very ordinary, ordinary girl, and the only place she can get is to bake bread.

But that wasn't enough, she thought. At least in the face of death, let her be on par with those women, so that she can hold her head up and say that she is a green woman.

Suddenly, sleepiness and darkness accompanied by coldness hit her brain, she was inevitably frightened in her heart, and grabbed Shi Qing's hand with both hands in a hurry, it was so hot and reassuring, dispelling the fear in her heart, she whispered and said, "Promise me...... Don't forget me. ”

Bad, I'm still not as good as those broad-minded heroines, Xiao Fang laughed at herself in her heart, and then, the world was dark.

With a bang, the huge octopus swept away the river and approached the shore, the starlight was obscured, and the shadow hung over the earth.

The emerald green light disappeared, and Shi Qing grabbed the cold shoulder and shook it wildly, "Don't sleep!" Xiaofang, your injuries have been healed, don't sleep! Wake me up! ”

Boom, the sound of the air bursting was sharp and piercing, and it overpowered his roar, and a huge octopus tentacle smashed down in the air, the fleshy suction cups opened, and the sharp fangs opened with it, longing for human flesh and blood.

"Ah Qing! Get out of the way! She's hopeless. Zhao Xiang, who ran over, saw this scene, anxiety appeared on his face for the first time, and his steps rarely took a step beyond sixths and threes, looking at that, he couldn't wait to take seven or eight meters in one step.

Shi Qing didn't answer, raised his right hand, and slammed his fist on the ground, a spiderweb-like crack appeared, the ground on the river bank collapsed, and the two fell into the icy emerald river.

Boom, the ground on the riverbank trembled, the huge octopus tentacles fell, and the people who didn't have time to escape were instantly chewed and swallowed by the suckers at the bottom, and when the tentacles were withdrawn, a ravine with blood stains was dragged out on the ground.

No one looked back and screamed, everyone was running calmly to the center, even if the dead were their own relatives.

The octopus monster was just about to swing a second blow, when a figure tore through the atmosphere, sped from afar, and hit it directly into its brain, and the surging force forced the mountain-like octopus to break away from the river and fly towards the center of the Emerald River.

Zhao Xiang understood that it was the master of the Taoist Academy, and he was not worried, he rushed to the bank of the collapsed river, and shouted anxiously: "Ah Qing, Ah Qing!" ”

The murky river with floating gravel parted, and Shi Qing, who was wearing only a pair of boxers, rushed out with Xiao Fang in his arms and landed on the cracked ground.

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a cold face: "She is dead, our top priority is to go to the west to fight, not to hold her body and grieve with her, such an act has no meaning." ”

This sentence was very cruel, but he couldn't help but say that the enemy who dared to attack Fengyang must not be an ordinary person, in such a situation, grief is a very deadly emotion, and he didn't want Shi Qing to die for this reason.

Shi Qing didn't show sadness on his face, but laughed, "You said wrong, Xiaofang's injury has healed, how can a person die, it's my negligence." ”

Zhao Xiang's light purple eyes showed anger, took a step forward, gritted his teeth and said, "You sober me up." ”

"Haha, I'm sorry, you misunderstood, I'm really sober, thanks to the water of the Emerald River, it calmed me down. I could hear the faint heartbeat, I was so stupid, it was normal for an ordinary person to be in such a state of shock when he was so badly injured and bleeding so much. I didn't even think about it in the first place, it was so stupid. Shi Qing explained to her friend as she lay Xiaofang flat on the ground and broke her pale lips.

Then, Shi Qing made a move that shocked Zhao Xiang, he cut the artery in his wrist!!

"Are you crazy?!" Zhao Xiang roared hysterically, silently recited the incantation, and quickly tore off the sleeve on his body with his hand, refining it into a long snow-white bandage, and stepped forward to bandage him.

Shi Qing blocked it with one hand, and said calmly: "Believe me, I don't have any problems." ”

The cut right hand was above Xiao Fang's lips, and a steady stream of blood flowed into the small mouth. At the same time, he put down his left hand and gently patted it on Xiao Fang's stomach to strengthen the digestion ability of the stomach and facilitate faster blood replenishment.

Zhao Xiang looked at this scene and was speechless.

The bridge of blood has already fused two lives into one, and no language is pale in such a situation.
