Chapter 281: Spiritual Spring Water
Gu Muqing touched the back of the pig spirit beast and said to her, "Thank you for saving me, now is not the time to say hello." My husband is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he is waiting outside the city gate with his soldiers, waiting to save the country. I have to get out of here now! ”
The pig spirit beast that was talking to Gu Muqing shook its head and raised one of its feet. Gu Muqing looked down, the pig spirit beast's feet were covered with thick iron rings, "It's not that we don't want to help you, the iron rings on this foot make it impossible for us to leave this cave too far." Only the magnetic field in this cave can alleviate our pain a little. So, it's up to you to do the rest. ”
Gu Muqing suddenly seemed to think of something, she took out the small altar of spirit water she had just held from the bamboo basket, and carefully put a drop on the iron ring on the feet of the pig spirit beast. A miraculous thing happened, after the iron ring encountered the spiritual spring water, it was like encountering sulfuric acid, and the iron pieces quickly corroded away.
Seeing this magical scene, the other pig spirit beasts cheered in surprise, and lined up at Gu Muqing to use spiritual spring water to untie the shackles on their feet.
"Shhhh Don't be noisy. The pig spirit beast suddenly whispered, "Someone is coming." ”
She looked at Gu Muqing and said to her, "Benefactor, you go all the way along this road, you can go to the outside of the palace, this is our secret passage before. Now there are a lot of people out there who are deliberately arresting you, you must be careful. After speaking, she said to the bamboo basket behind Gu Muqing, "Prince, we are all waiting for you to come back." ”
Gollum hid in the bamboo basket, licking the wound she had just been injured. Hearing this, I couldn't help but be shocked, and tears flowed from my eyes.
"Now is not the time for mother-in-law." Gu Muqing said to the pig spirit beast: "I think I have to find a way to bring that spiritual spring water to this castle now." I have a hunch, but I'm not sure yet, is there anything you can do? ”
The pig spirit beast frowned, and watched as the companions behind him untied the iron rings on their feet one by one. She was heartbroken, and said to Gu Muqing: "Benefactor, you go quickly, someone from above has come down, and we will definitely find a way to get the spiritual spring water in." ”
Gu Muqing nodded, and ran towards the secret passage with Gollum on his back, shouting as he ran: "There are only two and a half hours left, you must hurry!" ”
After shouting, she riveted her strength and rushed forward at full speed. For some reason, she always felt a miserable howl faintly coming from behind her.
Now there is no time to care so much, just like the pig spirit beast said, she ran and saw a glimmer of light above her head getting brighter and brighter. She struggled to climb up, pushed open a little of the cover, and looked outside. It turned out that at this time, she was under the manhole cover in the city, and the soldiers above were lined up, running in the city one by one, looking for herself and Gollum.
She climbed down the stairs again, opened the basket, and asked Gollum, "Gollum, will you ever become another form?" It's all soldiers, and we'll have to change our looks to get by. ”
Gollum nodded and said to Gu Muqing: "I am huge, and the smallest form that can transform into this kitten is this." I don't have wings, and I can't turn into a flying spirit animal. ”
"Can you become a monkey?" Gu Muqing asked, "In this way, you can hang on my body, if we are discovered, it will be easier to escape." ”
Gollum nodded, jumped out of the bamboo basket, and transformed into a golden monkey with a glowing body in front of Gu Muqing. Gu Muqing took off the headcloth that he had just tied on his head, tied it around his neck as a silk scarf, and tore off the long skirt he was wearing just now, turning it into a short skirt with a short front and a long back.
After everything was done, she climbed under the manhole cover with Gollum, found the right moment, opened the lid and climbed out.
With her head bowed, she walked quickly along the wall, guided by Gollum, in the direction of the city gate. In the crowd of people coming and going, the piercing voice of searching for people has been echoing in Gu Muqing's ears.
"The city lord spoke, there are outsiders waiting to enter the wooden city, this person is extremely dangerous, let's help the city lord find someone!"
Gu Muqing knew that it would be a quick thing for her to be discovered, so she stepped up her pace and ran towards the direction of the city gate.
Getting closer, getting closer...... The dark black gate is right in front of you.
Suddenly, she felt the ground for a while. "Beauty, don't run away." The shrill and evil voice of the city lord appeared in front of her.
The surroundings fell silent, and Gu Muqing stood motionless, grunting around her neck. In the entire wooden city, only the soldiers in the city remained, and the sound of uniform footsteps surrounded Gu Muqing.
The city lord pulled out a golden sword from his waist and slowly approached Gu Muqing, the sharp sword slightly against Gu Muqing's throat: "Beauty, who are you?" ”
The soldiers arrived one after another, forcibly dragged Gollum off Gu Muqing's body, and wrapped its neck with an iron ring. Suddenly grunted and let out a miserable howl of pain.
Gu Muqing frowned, looked at Gollum, and shouted at the city lord, "You let it go!" Something is coming at me! ”
She is a person who has crossed over, and life and death have long been put out of the way. In those few deaths in the Great Zhou Dynasty, she walked through the Ghost Gate Pass several times, and she was not afraid of death for a long time.
The city lord smiled wickedly, walked to Gu Muqing's side, pinched Gu Muqing's chin with his fingers as if he was in the city, looked at her arrogantly and said, "Let it go?" Do you know how long I've been looking for it, the last of their whole clan, and now I've finally caught it, you stinking human, what do I have to come to you? As weak as a kitten. After speaking, he pinched Gu Muqing's chin and threw her aside.
Gu Muqing, although she is shrewd and unpredictable, she really has no way to deal with such a powerful opponent. Just when she was about to despair, she suddenly remembered that there was still some spiritual spring water left in her bamboo basket. She endured the severe pain on her body, and quietly took out the jar when the city lord walked towards Gollum. Lunges at the two of them.
The sound of the corrosive iron ring and the screams of the city lord mixed together and resounded throughout the wooden city.
Zun Mojun, who was waiting outside the city, heard a loud noise coming from the city. got on his horse and led the soldiers behind him to shout and rush towards the cost of the wooden city.
