Chapter 90: The Horned Serpent
After Xiao Qi worked hard all his life and failed to redeem Bai Nuo, he had little hope of recovering his daughter and getting her daughter's forgiveness. But he didn't want to, when he was desperate, he actually heard his daughter's words of concern for him from his daughter's mouth, she still cared about herself, she didn't want to die.
Xiao Qi looked at Li Xiruo with surprise in his eyes, with tears in his eyes, which made Li Xiruo uncomfortable. She just felt that it was her father in her previous life, and she really couldn't do it if she killed her father. But I didn't want a simple sentence to cause tears to fall for a big man like Xiao Qi.
"Xiao Ruo, you ...... Still care about being a father, don't you? Xiao Qi looked at Li Xiruo excitedly.
Li Xiruo coughed twice in embarrassment, turned his head and said, "I just don't want you to die." ”
What Li Xiruo said was nothing, but this also made Xiao Qi very happy, with old tears on his face, which made everyone on the lookers a little speechless. In the end, Li Xiruo stood up and persuaded a few words, which made Xiao Qi stop crying.
After Xiao Qi suppressed her crying, Li Xiruo set her eyes on the Zhuyan fruit tree that had taken her on a trip to time and space. There is obviously no wind in the cave, but the Zhuyan fruit tree is swaying gently at this time, there is no wind automatically, and there are three red fruits hanging on the tree, which makes Li Xiruo's face with surprise, she can get these three Zhuyan fruits, and her trip is not in vain!
Li Xiruo walked towards the Zhuyan fruit tree as if he was bewitched, wanting to pick all the fruits on the tree. But before she could make a move, she was stopped by Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi held Li Xiruo's wrist and said: "Do you think Zhu Yanguo is so easy to pick, I have been here for so many years, why was it completely lost in memory, no one is a person, no ghost is not a ghost?" ”
Li Xiruo really doesn't know much about Zhu Yanguo, and the Zhu Yanguo she took before was also presented to Her Majesty by a strange person, she doesn't know how to pick Zhu Yanguo, after all, this kind of thing is hard to find. Even in the ancient books, there is no record of how to pluck this thing from a tree.
"How do you take it off?" Li Xiruo raised a small face and asked Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi could vaguely see the appearance of his childhood from Li Xiruo's face, and his heart was soft, and he said to Li Xiruo: "I have been guarding it for more than 2,000 years, and I don't know how to pick this fruit, but you don't have to worry, just wait here, I'll pick it." ”
Xiao Qi didn't care about his life and death for a long time, as long as he could benefit his daughter, he didn't care if he would be calculated by Zhu Yan Guoshu and thrown into something he didn't understand. He walked straight to the bottom of the fruit tree, reached out and plucked the three fruits in turn, and wrapped them in the handkerchief he had with him.
I don't know if Zhu Yan Fruit Tree has already pit Xiao Qi once, and he didn't pit it a second time, the process of picking the fruit was incredible. He handed the handkerchief-wrapped fruit to Li Xiruo and said, "Xiao Ruo, there are only three of these fruits in two thousand years, which are very precious, you must collect them." ”
Li Xiruo nodded like a chicken pecking rice, she had extended her life for a thousand years when she ate one, this fruit is not precious, these three fruits are three thousand years of life! She carefully put the three fruits into the jade box prepared in advance in her bag, and then she raised a smile and looked at Xiao Qi with a smile, since she saw Xiao Qi, she felt that Xiao Qi was so pleasing to the eye for the first time.
Xiao Qi, who was already under the control of his daughter, saw his daughter's sweet smile, and his heart was full of happiness, and his daughter was finally willing to forgive him and accept him. Xiao Qi, who had already had the will to die before, suddenly didn't want to die so much, although he didn't have a wife, but he still had a daughter, and with a daughter, he could still protect his daughter, and his life was not completely meaningless.
After Li Xiruo put away Zhu Yanguo, he began to recall the method of breaking the formation that Professor Min Sheng gave her, he said that killing the defenders was the quickest and easiest way, but considering that Li Xiruo might not be able to do anything to his father, he also provided Li Xiruo with other methods to break the formation. That is, through the heart of the formation, after arriving outside the cave, the connection between the emperor's mausoleum and the large array was shortened in the way of Min Shengjiao, and the formation was self-defeating.
Li Xiruo communicated the method of breaking the formation with everyone, Xiao Qi naturally did not disbelieve Min Sheng's words, nodded his head, and said that he would go with him to protect his baby girl on the way. Zhang Jianguo and the other three didn't understand this aspect, so naturally they didn't have any opinions, only Su Mingyue's expression was a little strange, but they didn't say anything.
The changes in Su Mingyue's expression were all taken into Li Xiruo's eyes, from the beginning she felt that Su Mingyue was very strange, his spells came from a famous teacher, it was said that it would not be worse than Xiao Qi, and the age difference between the two was not very much, since his spiritual power was not imprisoned, it should not be a big problem to fight with Xiao Qi at that time, but why did he pretend to be imprisoned with spiritual power and not make a move?
Li Xiruo suppressed the doubts in his heart, led everyone out of the stone room, and searched outside the stone room for a long time, but did not find Gu Minghan's shadow. If Li Xi wasn't the kind of ungrateful person, Gu Minghan was kind enough to save her, she couldn't leave Gu Minghan alone, so she insisted on staying and finding Gu Minghan before continuing to move forward.
Xiao Qi disagreed, he said that he hadn't seen that Gu Minghan when he kidnapped a few of them, and he must have been hiding by himself. They won't wait until Gu Minghan comes back, but a few of them, there is not much food, and if they continue to consume like this, I'm afraid they will all have to die here. Rather than this, it is better to break the big array first, stock up on food, and then come back to find Gu Minghan.
Li Xiruo looked left and right, but he really couldn't find any traces of Gu Minghan having been here, and seeing that everyone agreed with Xiao Qi's statement, he had to answer and walk forward. I have to say that Zhang Jianguo and Guo Jianjun's professionalism is still very good, the amount of explosives is just right, and there is no major damage to the cave, and the stones that were blown down just did not cross the river, and they stepped on the stones and could cross the river smoothly.
After Xiao Qi recovered his memory, he remembered a lot of things, he had participated in some of the excavation and construction of this cave, such as this river, which was specially invited to transport poisonous water, and it is said that people will turn into thick water if they get a little bit of it. With this river alone, no living thing can pass through it alive. It can also be guaranteed that this big array will never break.
But what he saw, the river was filled in. I don't know how these children used to get all the stones from the cave and fill up the river, so that they could cross the river by stepping on the stones. Xiao Qi, who has never seen explosives, said that this is the hell?
Li Xiruo stepped on the stones with everyone and crossed the river smoothly, thought about it, took out a pen and paper from his bag, left a note for Gu Minghan, who didn't know where it was, and put the note in a conspicuous place, and then reluctantly left here.
Although Xiao Qi did not participate in the construction of this cave in the whole process, he still understood most of the dangers in this cave, so they successfully avoided all the dangers along the way. They almost mistakenly thought that this was just an ordinary cave, not the heart of a big killing array.
Xiao Qi saw that the exit was about to arrive, and a smug look appeared on his face: "How is it, Daddy didn't say big things, right?" As long as Daddy is here, he will definitely protect you, and you will not be in any danger in the future! ”
Li Xiruo glanced at Xiao Qi funny, she didn't expect Xiao Qi to be so old, and he was still like a child, and was about to tease him a few words, when she suddenly felt a murderous aura rushing towards her. Her face changed, and she quickly dodged and flashed to the side, and at the same time as she dodged, an animal with horns on its head and a body like a snake pounced towards her position with its bloody mouth wide open.
This sudden monster made everyone dumbfounded, not to mention Zhang Jianguo and the other three, even Li Xiruo and Su Mingyue were so well-informed that they were stunned, what kind of species is this snake with horns on its head, is it a dragon? Not to mention a dragon, even a Jiao should have claws, this reptile without claws is said to be only a snake.
The horned snake was extremely fast, and it didn't even make a sound. Li Xiruo, who is also a loss, is experienced in a hundred battles and is very sensitive to murderous aura, and her body's instinctive dodge allowed her to save her life, otherwise her head would have entered the stomach of the horned snake at this time, and she was afraid to think about it......
Xiao Qi didn't expect that there was such a monster in the cave he was guarding, but his reaction was not slow. As a defender, there is always some equipment. He pulled out a sword that glowed with a faint blue light and stabbed at the horned serpent. This sword glows with blue light because it is highly poisonous, and as a defender, he naturally will not allow anyone to walk out of this great array alive.
Although Xiao Qi said that he didn't have much resourcefulness, he had always been brave, but he was almost swallowed by the horned snake in less than two moves, if it wasn't for Li Xiruo's timely action, his soul would have been fed to the big snake by now.
After Xiao Qi and Li Xiruo shot one after another, everyone who was shocked by the monster also came back to their senses and took out weapons to support. Zhang Jianguo and Guo Jianjun even held the guns in their hands and kept firing bullets at the horned snake. But the snake scales didn't know what it was made of, and it was invulnerable. The bullet hit the skin and didn't hurt it, as if he was wearing a reinforced version of body armor.
Su Mingyue continued to use her fire control skills to create one fireball after another towards the horned snake, Su Mingyue's fire is probably not an ordinary fire, and it has a certain amount of damage to the horned snake, but this damage is not great. The horned snake screamed at most after being beaten, but the scales on its body were not damaged at all, and everyone who watched was stunned.
Li Xiruo held a soft whip in his hand, and kept complaining in his heart, this big snake is against the sky, it can't hurt it, if it goes on like this, several of them will run out of physical strength, and this is where their bones are buried.
