Chapter 16: Yuan Li
When Ji Xiao woke up, he was already in an unfamiliar environment. Suddenly I remembered that I seemed to have fallen off a cliff.
Ji Xiao struggled to get up, wanting to check the situation around him.
However, as soon as his body moved, Ji Xiao was forced to lie down again.
When I got through that layer of thorns before, my body was already covered with wounds of all sizes.
Just moving hurts all over your body, and it's hard to get up.
"Could it be the ...... of the forest" Ji Xiao muttered to himself as he looked at the dense woods, if it was in the forest, it would be troublesome......
You know, the wolves, tigers and leopards in the forest are very fierce.
Ji Xiao ignored the pain in his body, gritted his teeth and struggled to get up.
Looking at the surrounding scenes, Ji Xiao was a little confused for a while.
There are trees everywhere, which side is the best way to get out? I don't know if the rules of forest survival in the real world can be applied here?
"No matter, I can only go first." Ji Xiao muttered to himself, his eyes firmed, and walked in one direction.
The more I walked, the more I felt that something was wrong, and I always felt that there were eyes staring at me, and I was creepy and uncomfortable. Ji Xiao's intuition has always been very accurate, and this time is no exception.
"Who? Who's there? Ji Xiao finally couldn't help it and shouted around.
Obviously there was no movement around, Ji Xiao still felt uneasy.
"Who are you? Why come here. A voice came from Ji Xiao's head.
Ji Xiao dodged and hid behind a tree, looking vigilantly at the position where he was standing.
A tall and burly man jumped down from above, "What do you say?" Who are you? What is the purpose of being here? ”
Ji Xiao endured the pain on his body, "There is no purpose in entering this place by mistake." ”
"Really?" This person obviously didn't believe Ji Xiao's words. Fiercely asked:
"Don't pretend to be garlic! Tell me honestly, you're here to steal the Excalibur. ”
Excalibur?
Ji Xiao looked at the man with a confused expression, does he look like a bad guy?
"There is no intention of stealing the sword below, and I don't know that there is a divine sword here."
The man looked at Ji Xiao and suddenly laughed, this is the person who has been guarding here for so many years, and he has seen the person who is the best at pretending to be garlic in the sword stealing it.
The people who came to steal the sword said that they didn't come to steal the sword, and they didn't know that there were words like divine swords here.
"Alright, no more nonsense!" Yuan Li's eyes flickered, and he drew his weapon: "If you want the Excalibur, you need to step over me and see the move."
"This ......" Ji Xiao was really speechless, why do people here always regard themselves as bad people, do they look like bad people?!
Now that he is like this, it is impossible to win against the other party, and running for his life is the best policy, Ji Xiao thought silently in his heart.
Although he ate the elixir of Taishang Laojun, and Si Yuanchen also taught himself the spell of self-defense, but in the face of a strong opponent, he had no chance of winning.
Yuan Li casually struck a sword qi and attacked towards Ji Xiao.
Not good!
Ji Xiao's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously wanted to dodge, but his scarred body refused to cooperate.
"Gollum" Ji Xiao fell to the ground, the gravel and dead wood on the ground pierced his wound, and Ji Xiao trembled in pain.
Are you going to die here?
I didn't die after falling from the top of my career, but now I am dying at the hands of an unknown person?
What's going on with this person? Why not fight back? Still pretending to be weak, or is he accumulating some kind of big move?
One step at a time, Yuan Li cautiously walked in the direction of Ji Xiao. He held the hilt of his sword tightly in his hand, so that he could attack at any time.
No way! Can't end here!
Suddenly, a force surged from his dantian, gradually saturated and filled.
Ji Xiao could feel his abdomen gradually getting hotter, as if it was about to burn.
As soon as he stretched out his hand in the direction of the man, a pure skill blasted towards the man. The power is terrifying, the speed is so fast.
The man who had just relaxed a little didn't have time to react, only to see energy slashing across his cheeks, bleeding out a few drops of blood and taking away a wisp of green silk.
"This ......" When the man reacted, a layer of cold sweat had already oozed from his back.
All right! I didn't expect this person to be so cunning that he almost caught his way. Fortunately, he missed just now, otherwise his life would not have been saved.
Here, Ji Xiao felt a burst of emptiness in his body, and the energy gathered in the dantian was empty due to excessive use.
With the experiment just now, Ji Xiao probably knows how to mobilize his internal force.
The man put the sword on his chest and glared at Ji Xiao with a defensive expression.
"Da Da Da"
"Sword Strike * Straight Piercing!" The man held a sharp sword and stabbed straight towards Ji Xiao's heart.
Ji Xiao turned slightly sideways to the left, and easily dodged the man's attack.
However, what Ji Xiao didn't know, his dodge happened to fall into the hands of the man. This is actually a false trick.
The man did not sprint in a straight line at the beginning of the sprint, but slightly twisted some angles where his right foot was stepped.
"Suffer death!" Ji Xiao suddenly found a man's voice on his left. What's going on? When did he move to his left side!
Seeing that his life was in danger, Ji Xiao made an astonishing move.
Gripped the man's sword with his own hand, not letting the tip of his sword come any closer to his chest.
Ji Xiao exerted all his strength and struggled to resist.
The man was stunned, it was the first time he had seen such a desperate person.
A big cut was made along the arm, and the pain had already made Ji Xiao numb. looked at the man with a somewhat empty look.
When Yuan Li came out of the shock, the hand holding the sword unconsciously loosened back.
What does it mean that your own weapon is caught by the enemy? Their actions have fallen into passivity! Do you want to give up your weapons?
Ji Xiao also sensed this opportunity and took the opportunity to gather his strength to breathe,
The internal force gathered in his hand again, and smashed the sword on the man's chest.
The man was beaten back a few steps like this, and with a "poof", blood stained the man's white robe.
Ji Xiao here also retreated again and again because of excessive blood loss, and finally fell directly to the ground.
……
The two of them looked at each other silently, and neither of them could take a step forward. Ji Xiao was injured all over his body, and the man was sent flying away by Ji Xiao because of his weapon.
In addition, the internal injuries that were beaten by Ji Xiao are also unable to move now.
The man was not in a hurry to make another move to deal with Ji Xiao, but meditated on the spot to regulate his internal strength.
What to do? Do you want to keep going like this? Ji Xiao knew in his heart that if he was in a stalemate with a man in this state, he was waiting for death.
Active attack? Ji Xiao struggled to move his body. Hiss! The pain of the heart.
If it weren't for the fear of being seen by a man, maybe Ji Xiao would have grinned in pain a long time ago.
Time passed in silence between the two.
"Roar!"
A roar broke the silence around them.
"What sound?" Ji Xiao had already asked the man,
No matter what the man says, he is the one who has been guarding here, and he knows the situation here better.
As soon as he heard this roar, the man's face turned white in an instant.
"What's wrong? Say it quickly! Seeing that the man's face was wrong, Ji Xiao became even more anxious.
"This is a fierce beast that has been sealed here since ancient times, why did it come out today? But you lifted its seal? ”
Seal? Could it be the layer I broke through in the process of falling? Ji Xiao's face changed slightly, it won't be his own fault again!
But now Ji Xiao doesn't dare to tell the man the truth, what if he doesn't let himself go?
"Hey, what do you call a strong man?" Ji Xiao took the initiative to put down his defensive posture.
"Yuan Li"
"My name is Ji Xiao, I accidentally strayed into this place, and I really didn't want to steal the sword, and I ask Brother Yuan to believe it."
Yuan Li hummed slightly, obviously not knowing what Ji Xiao wanted.
"Listening to Brother Yuan's words, that Xiuxiu beast should be very powerful, why don't we join hands to collect that fierce beast first, what does Brother Yuan think" Ji Xiao endured the pain and bent down to pick up Yuan Li's sword from the ground, and slowly walked towards him.
"Now the priority is to subdue the Woo Woo Beast? Please also think twice. ”
When Ji Xiao walked towards him, Yuan Li was actually very vigilant. But because he didn't see any bad behavior from Ji Xiao, Yuan Li put his mind at ease.
"Okay, I promise you." Yuan Li took his sword from Ji Xiao's hand, "When the fierce beast is solved, I am looking for you to settle accounts." ”
Originally, the two of them were discussing working together to subdue the fierce beast and save their lives, but God seemed to know that they had reached a consensus to fight together, and the sky was a little brighter.
The two of them had just turned around and wanted to look for the beast, but when they turned around, they were blocked by the tall, ugly, and fierce big guy.
"Roar!" The moment the huge paws of the Woowoo Beast's thick feet fell, the whole earth seemed to tremble.
Ji Xiao was already a little unsteady on his feet, and staggered back a few steps slightly, but fortunately, Yuan Li, who was standing on the side, helped him steady.
"This ......" For Yuan Li's friendly actions, Ji Xiao nodded and thanked while observing the actions of the fierce beast, "Thank you, Brother Yuan." ”
"It's okay, even if you join hands to fight, you don't need to be polite!" Yuan Li smiled slightly at Ji Xiao.
Yuan Li has been guarding the sword at the bottom of this cliff for ten thousand years, and he is very lonely, although Ji Xiao may have come to steal the sword, but he has little comfort in his heart.
"Hmm." Ji Xiao was slightly moved in his heart, and his heart became more determined, he must clarify Yuan Li's misunderstanding of him.
"Hey!" Yuan Li took out his sword and began to go up and fight with the Xiuxiu Beast, "Fierce Beast, I'm here to subdue you"
When did he recover? Didn't you just get an internal injury from yourself? Ji Xiao looked at Yuan Li with some surprise.
Don't......
Could it be that Yuan Li was just stuck there with himself, just giving himself time to heal? He didn't want to kill himself? It seems that this Yuan Li is still a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person.
Thinking of this, Ji Xiao couldn't help but be a little glad that the arrival of the Xiuxiu Beast had arrived. Otherwise, if you really fight with Yuan Li, you will definitely be in trouble.
"What are you doing in a daze? Come and prick it in the eye! Yuan Li shouted Ji Xiao there.
Although it had only taken a few moves, Yuan Li already knew the weakness of the fierce beast.
Ji Xiao took a deep breath of water, condensed his true qi, and rushed towards the screaming beast with all his might.
In an instant, the two of them and one beast tore together.
