Chapter 4: The two meet again
Xin Zhi strode through the desert, holding the broken lock fairy rope in her mouth, and quickly used it with her left hand to tie the shoulder blade that had been broken by the left protector. I don't know how long it took for her to gradually feel physically exhausted.
She slowly stopped in front of a dilapidated Taoist temple. The sun began to set in the west, and dark red clouds surged in the sky like a tide. Strong winds began to blow all around, and the originally clear sky gradually darkened.
It's going to be a change.
Since she was resurrected, Xin Zhi's whole person has slowly become clear from the chaos at the beginning, and she can now not only think, but also make judgments quickly and accurately, as if she had done these things a thousand times.
This Taoist temple is dilapidated and ruined, but it can barely block the approaching sandstorm. She walked around the Taoist temple, only to see a dilapidated statue standing in the middle, the nine-colored lotus seat was dusty and dirty, with thick cobwebs, this statue was incomplete, but still drooping her eyes by caressing her hands, and the mural was mottled and blurred due to the invasion of wind and snow. Underneath the idol, there was a hidden hole, and she crouched down and squeezed into it, curling herself into a ball and facing outward.
But after a long while, her eyes were still wide open, and she did not feel the slightest sleepiness, so she had to spread out her armored palm and think about it.
She died a long time ago, so what kind of person was she before that? What kind of life do you live? Xin Zhi wanted to know, but she didn't know where to find the monk right now. Thinking of this, she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside, and Xin Zhi immediately curled up without making any sound.
She hid silently under the idol, like a beast in ambush in the night, staring at the broken door that was closed in front of her.
"Senior brother, be careful."
The door opened with a "squeak", only to hear the delicate woman say, and then the door was pushed open, and several monks walked in in the wind, Xin Zhi was stunned, these people were Shen Fei and the four, really said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
He walked in the front, drew the Water Moon Sword at his waist and blocked the front and reminded, "Senior brother, junior sister, pay attention to the surroundings." ”
"It's the statue of the Heavenly Venerable of Suffering!"
Lang Yue pointed to the gray statue in front of him, and the four of them immediately bowed on the dilapidated futon.
Shen Fei cast the Rebellion Technique the moment he finished reciting the spell, and he had already connected his arm on the way to escape, but because his spiritual power had been sealed for too long and had not recovered, he could only take everyone to the side not too far from the demon cave, and the four of them had to trek for a long time to find a small Taoist temple in the desert.
A few people checked this Taoist temple before they took a break, Qinglang was so tired that he sat directly on the ground, and said tiredly, "This time it's really thrilling......
Lang Yue, who was beside her, couldn't help but show bitterness when she thought of what she had experienced today, so she had to say, "It's the incompetence of the junior brother, not only did he not complete the task of the sect, but he was tied up by that cunning demon corpse......"
Shuo Feng sat on the side and persuaded, "Senior brother, that demon corpse is too insidious and cunning, I didn't expect her to unload your arm with one palm, and I didn't expect to take away Senior Sister's magic weapon......"
“......”
“......”
Well, Shuofeng's words are indeed true......
Qing Lang sat on the side with an ugly face, her magic weapon was made of ancient dragon tendons in the East China Sea, how precious, spiritual. But anyone with spiritual power will be sealed by its mana, but I didn't expect that the lock fairy rope was useless to the female demon corpse at all, but was bound by herself. Although they escaped, the rope was also lost.
Shuo Feng was right, he only blamed himself for his low cultivation to end up in such a mess.
Shen Fei found a pile of waste firewood out of nowhere, he put it in the middle and took out the flint and flint to light it, remembering what and asked Qinglang, "Is there a record of this mission?" "The Demon Dao is coming this time, I am afraid that the world will suffer a catastrophe, and this matter must be reported to the master.
Qinglang was overjoyed when he heard this, "I have memorized it, I have been recording it since I left the sect, and the things in the cave have been remembered clearly." She took out the record spirit stone, and Shen Fei checked it before she was relieved, "Senior Sister must hand it over to Master when the time comes." ”
After putting the spirit stone again, Qing Lang nodded, looked at the sand and dust blowing outside, and said to a few people, "This wind and sand is too big, I'm afraid I won't be able to go today, let's rectify here for one night, and return to the sect immediately tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes!"
A few people, you and I quieted down after a short time, Qinglang got up to look for some useful items, the soft firelight mixed with the sound of charcoal explosion, listening to the wind outside the Taoist temple and muttered, "The wilderness is really quiet......
"What?"
Shen Fei suddenly straightened up and asked sharply, "What did Senior Brother say just now?" ”
He immediately became alert, only to hear Qinglang scream, "Ah——! ”
Shen Fei jumped in front of the statue in a big stride and pulled Qing Lang behind him, he pulled out the water moon and pointed straight ahead, and said sharply, "What evil, come out!" ”
Seeing this, Lang Yue and Shuo Feng also opened their posture and stood in front one after another, such a violent sand and dust weather, such a Taoist temple in the wilderness, it is indeed a good place to hide from the sand and dust, but it is so quiet here that there is not even a mouse.
There must be some evil cult here to scare the snakes and rats away, if Shen Fei hadn't discovered it, I'm afraid everyone wouldn't know that there was such a dangerous thing lurking in this temple.
"Come out!"
Lang Yue shouted, "What a bold man, dare to hide under the statue of Tianzun!" ”
Qing Lang's gaze swept over the entrance of the cave, and he trembled and pointed to the pile of straw under the statue, "Senior brother... There's a dead man in there! ”
Lang Yue and Shuo Feng glanced at each other, tentatively stepped forward to lift the pile of straw, Shen Fei hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the water moon against the people in the cave and said coldly, "Come out!" ”
Xin Zhi didn't intend to alarm them, she stayed quietly and didn't make a sound, but unexpectedly, because the corpse on her body was too heavy and scared the small animals away and was discovered, she had to raise her hand and slowly poke her head out, and when she saw the three people who were stunned in place, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled.
She had no flesh on her face, and her smile was extremely gloomy, and Qing Lang saw that it was the female demon corpse who had tied everyone up during the day, and she was immediately angry and shocked, "It's you!" ”
Of course, Shen Fei also recognized it, but he didn't get to this demon corpse and not only was he not killed, but he even chased himself to find it...... He knew how powerful Xin Zhi was, and now that everyone's spiritual power had not recovered, he was not her opponent at all, he stopped everyone from stepping back and said to him, "I said that I would go back, why should the girl be so aggressive......"
Xin Zhi bent down and crawled out of the cave, she was very happy to see Shen Fei, she wanted to ask him if he was injured, after all, Shen Fei disappeared in the blink of an eye, and she couldn't find it.
As soon as she approached, everyone hurried back.
Xin Zhi was stunned, thinking that maybe she was not very good-looking and scared everyone, and after a long confrontation, she had to retreat to the entrance of the cave, reached out and tore off the cloth on the statue to wrap herself, and then slowly sat in the corner and looked at Shen Fei, like a well-behaved lamb.
Qinglang was shocked, and couldn't understand Xin Zhi's behavior, "Senior brother... Why is she always staring at us......"
"She... Wrapping yourself in a fear of scaring us? Shuo Feng asked, and when the three of them heard it, they all looked at Xin Zhi together.
Lang Yue reacted, "Senior brother means, this demon corpse is conscious?" "How is this possible? can look at Xin Zhi's immobile appearance, but she can't understand what everyone is saying?
"Senior brother, what's going on?"
Shen Fei naturally understood that Xin Zhi still remembered the transaction between the two, and now, he had no way to retreat with the other three, and at this time, he couldn't fight again, and there was a strong wind outside, so he had to contain this demon corpse first, and then wait for the opportunity to escape. So he cleared his throat and slowed down his voice, "Girl, when my junior brothers and sisters return to the sect safely, I will go with you, and don't hurt them." ”
Seeing Xin Zhi nodded, Shen Fei breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and turned sideways towards the three people, "Don't worry, it's okay." She... I can really understand what we say......" For some reason, he inexplicably felt from the bottom of his heart that this female demon corpse would not break her word, and the master said that all things are inherently good, although I don't know that the package does not include this demon corpse that got up from the ground, but he is willing to gamble.
Hearing him say this, the three teenagers became curious, and slowly sat down against the wall, "How can the demon corpse be conscious?" "Then she understood what we said on the road before?" "I haven't taught this situation in the books......" "Senior brother......"
Qinglang's eyes didn't dare to move Xin Zhi's body for a moment, for fear that she would regret and arrest them back, she looked up and down, and suddenly her eyes fell on her right shoulder, and the turmeric rope tied to it was not her own lock fairy rope!
She pulled Shen Fei and suppressed her voice, so aggrieved that she wanted to cry, "Senior brother... My Lock Immortal Rope ......." Shen Fei followed the direction of her finger, and sure enough, he saw that Xin Zhi actually tied his shoulders with the Lock Immortal Rope. He took a deep breath, comforted Qing Lang, and asked tentatively, "Girl, the rope on your right shoulder is my junior sister's magic weapon, can you return it to her?" ”
Xin Zhi heard that she looked down and saw her broken shoulder, the turmeric rope on it was not thick or thin, it was quite strong, and she gave them what to tie herself? She shook her head and said no.
Qinglang was anxious and was about to speak, but Shen Fei pulled her and said don't say anything more. He just looked at Xin Zhi carefully, and found that her right shoulder bone seemed to be broken, and she was tied up in a mess by the lock fairy rope, could it be that she was injured? Who's going to hurt her? Aren't they those demon cultivators?
He thought for a moment and got up, slowly walked to Xin Zhi's side, squatted down, and saw that she didn't reject him, so he stepped forward to check and prove his idea, and when he was done, he asked, "The shoulder bone has been broken...... Girl, didn't you get hurt because you let us go? ”
Xin Zhi didn't deny it, let him caress his shoulder, and heard him say again, "This lock immortal rope can only activate the function of fixing the shoulder bone, if you want to cure this injury, it is better to go back to the sect with us," he thought about it, it is impossible for them to get rid of Xin Zhi at present, even if they run away, the lock fairy rope will not be able to get it back. Why don't you trick her back to the sect and let the master come forward, don't you believe that you can't beat a demon corpse? Afraid that Xin Zhi would not agree, Shen Fei inadvertently touched his forehead, "In this way, the girl will also have many opportunities to ...... with her forehead along the way."
Hearing this, Xin Zhi really nodded and agreed. Shen Fei saw that the plan was smooth and was about to get up and return to Qinglang's side, but as he got up, he felt Xin Zhi dragging him, he turned his head in surprise, and saw Xin Zhi blinking his big eyes and pointing to his side, signaling him not to go.
......
That's it.
Back beside Xin Zhi, the demon corpse was like a child who had gotten a doll, holding Shen Fei's head and leaning on it non-stop. Qinglang, Lang Yue and Shuo Feng saw that their senior brother was committed to the demon corpse for their sake, and they decided in their hearts that they would respect their senior brother in the future, love their senior brother, and work hard to cultivate.
This night, Shen Fei slept very badly, for no other reason, it was Xin Zhi beside him. First, the smell on her body made her unable to sleep all night, and second, the demon corpse would not sleep, so she lay sideways beside Shen Fei all night, leaning on her forehead and touching her arm when she was fine. Shen Fei couldn't see her like her, so he had to pretend to be asleep, so he stayed up until the next day.
