Chapter 67: Get the Fragments
The atmosphere that was quite harmonious suddenly became severe, and Xie Lingxu was a little unclear about the current situation.
Is this strange creature in front of you friend or foe? Is it trying to help itself, or is it trying to kill itself?
According to the stance that this monster was now attacking itself, Xie Lingxu basically vetoed the possibility that it was helping. The former's attack was very powerful, Xie Lingxu's already hungry limbs were weak, and it was really difficult to deal with this behemoth, but fortunately, Mu Yun saw that the situation had changed, so he rushed over in time, blocked the monster's attack in three or two clicks, and then entangled with it......
Xie Lingxu didn't think about it, he flashed to the side quickly, and quickly withdrew the shining jade bead in mid-air.
For some reason, the monster's strength seemed to be stronger than before, and its sharpness had grown a lot, and Xie Lingxu faintly felt that Mu Yun, who was confronting it, seemed to be a little difficult......
Even if he is a person with martial arts, he has not eaten or drunk for three days, and his energy will be reduced a lot, not to mention that he has to deal with such a big thing for so long, and his physical consumption is naturally very fast.
Xie Lingxu saw that Mu Yun, who was entangled with this monster, was gradually feeling a little weaker, and couldn't help but be a little worried.
I'm in trouble right now......
Xie Lingxu was holding the sword in his hand, and was about to step forward to give Mu Yun a hand, but before he could take a step, the monster that surrounded Mu Yun turned his head and rushed straight towards him......
Xie Lingxu's scalp was numb, and the palm of his hand holding the ancient sword was slightly cold.
The fan-shaped tail swept towards the hurricane, and Xie Lingxu didn't know whether he wanted to hide or block for a while, but by the time he reacted, it was too late......
The tail covered with long thorns fanned straight towards Xie Lingxu's face, and he didn't have time to dodge, and the thick thorn head was already less than a punch away from him......
Xie Lingxu suddenly felt that his waist was being taken away, and he immediately took advantage of his strength to rise into the air, avoiding the monster's attack without danger.
Who......?
Feeling that his shoulders were hugged tightly, Xie Lingxu raised his eyes, and the delicate face of a little girl came into view......
Xie Lingxu looked at the face of the girl in front of him with bated breath, and the blood seemed to freeze in an instant. The moment the four eyes met, Xie Lingxu felt an unspeakable suffocation, and his blank brain could not be filled with any wind and grass......
With such facial features and such outlines, it gave Xie Lingxu a thrilling feeling...... An indescribable sense of familiarity......
The thin girl let go of the hand that held Xie Lingxu, and her originally indifferent eyes softened in an instant after looking at Xie Lingxu, and she smiled at the latter, it was a sweet smile that showed teeth......
Xie Lingxu's heart palpitated...... I only felt that I had seen more hidden things in the former's ethereal blue pupils......
Xie Lingxu's brain paused for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, there was only a thin and emaciated back in front of him.
Mu Yun, who came with the sword, stood quietly beside Xie Lingxu, looking at the former's somewhat confused expression, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
The young man's cold hand touched the tight muscles on the ulna of Xie Lingxu, lowered his eyes, Xie Lingxu looked at his immature face, and endless thoughts instantly poured into his brain......
As if touching an unclear line, Xie Lingxu was stunned and seemed to understand...... The enlightenment in Mu Yun's mouth......
Xie Lingxu raised her eyes and looked at the girl who didn't look back in front of her, and she actually reacted, she was wearing a light blue casual dress and a pair of dark gray straight-leg pants that exposed her ankles.
Originally...... That is true......
Mu Yun stared at Xie Lingxu, who didn't belong to his heart, for a long time before he spoke:
"What's wrong?"
Xie Lingxu looked back at the former, his serious gaze looked a little sharp,
"I want to ...... I know. β
Mu Yun's upper eyelids lowered slightly:
"Huh?"
Xie Lingxu looked down at the young man beside him:
"He's not my illusion, he's yours. The human form I conjured up, thereβ" After speaking, Lingxu stretched out his hand and pointed to the girl in front of him who was leaning against the stone wall.
Is that what it wants to tell me......
Mu Yun was noncommittal and motioned for her to continue.
"If the whereabouts of the jade bead fragments really have something to do with me, then it will also ...... It's about her. β
The silent girl always stood on the wall and watched everything in front of her. Xie Lingxu turned around and walked straight to the girl sitting alone in front of him......
From afar, Xie Lingxu seemed to be able to see the smile on the girl's cheeks, and that face ...... The face that fits his facial features so well......
gradually approached her, only to feel that the former was clearly smiling, but there was a creepy chill in his eyes.
Although it was very similar to her facial features, Xie Lingxu felt that her face was very different from her childhood appearance in her memory. When I was young, my facial features had not yet opened, and I always had a sense of youthfulness that was appropriate for my age, but the former's face, which was obviously so similar to himself, gave people an indescribable sense of disobedience, and looked a little uncomfortable.
And the girl's weird and mysterious behavior is really confusing......
Depend on...... Why did I conjure up a human form like this? Does this mean that my heart is unpredictable?
A few feet away from the girl, Xie Lingxu stared at the eyes of his predecessors, these clear pupils, like a shallow blue embankment shining under the starry night, touched Xie Lingxu's soul, let himself involuntarily be attracted to it, fascinated by it......
The petrified girl remained motionless, smiling at the five fingers that the former stretched out towards her.
Xie Lingxu held his breath, if he was really the only one who knew the whereabouts of the jade bead fragment, then his subconscious told himself that it was here......
Touching the former's cold pupils, Xie Lingxu's fingertips were not numb, although the cerebral cortex was resisting, he still lowered his heart and forcibly took off the glass-like sphere.
At the moment when Xie Lingxu's heart trembled slightly, the girl's figure was instantly disillusioned, turning into a cloud of light blue smoke, and disappeared into the empty wilderness......
Xie Lingxu looked at the clouds and smoke flying in the air for a moment, then came back to his senses and thought:
Groove ...... You really guessed it!!
The glass jade bead in his hand flipped in the air a few times, turning into a wisp of dark blue smoke and rushing towards the jade bead on Xie Lingxu's waist......
Is this - the fragments are automatically homed?
Mu Yun looked at everything that had just happened, stood with his hands on the side, quietly watching Xie Lingxu's every move, until the former turned his head to look at himself, and then moved towards her,
"Found it?"
"Hmm." Xie Lingxu nodded, and immediately showed a look of vigilance.
Groove ...... He doesn't want to take advantage of the fisherman, does he?
Mu Yun seemed to have guessed the former's thoughts, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes:
"Don't worry, there's no need to rob you now."
In other words, they will rob me later-
Xie Lingxu felt that Mu Yun's words were very clear, and he knew that he would not get any benefits in the end by cooperating with him, but he had no choice but to need his help. Even if you have the jade bead without ability, you can't do anything, and this evil thing has been coveted by thousands of people, if its existence is announced to the world one day, then you can't escape from becoming the target of public criticism if you don't get caught and skinned. For the sake of today, it is better to take one step at a time, at least the yin ghost in front of him will not let himself die......
Xie Lingxu: "The fragment was found, but ...... How do we get out? β
There is also Jie'an Yuanzun...... Why didn't you see him?
As soon as Xie Lingxu's words fell, he saw that the monster that had suddenly disappeared suddenly screamed and rushed up from the bottom of the cliff at this moment, and after hovering in the air a few times, it actually fell straight down and lay on the open ground......
Looking at the extremely ugly behemoth more than ten meters long in front of him paralyzed to the ground, Xie Lingxu felt disgusted and funny, thinking that it was going to take us off?
The monster in front of him flapped its nose a few times, and after a few seconds, it actually ...... Transformed into the human form of a man......
...... Is it really - Jie'an Yuanzun?
Although the man in front of him is not young, about forty years old, his appearance is very upright, as if he can imagine the heroic appearance of this person when he was young......
This face can't be connected with the ugly monster that made people speechless just now, how can he not think that he has become like that, or that someone has no heart and eyes to turn him into that.
Xie Lingxu was caught in his own rich inner activities, and was forcibly pulled back to his senses by the slightly vicissitudes of the voice of Jie'an Yuanzun in front of him:
"It's finally time for the two of you."
Xie Lingxu was stunned for a long time, and didn't know how to answer for a while, but fortunately, Mu Yun on the side suddenly asked:
"Why did the predecessors transform into-"
Xie Lingxu felt that Mu Yun, who was very insincere when he called "senior", was already very polite when he didn't say the word "monster", and listened to Jie'an Yuanzun replied with a flat expression:
"More than ten years ago, the undead corpses of the underworld came to snatch the fragments of the jade beads, and although the trick did not succeed, the medicine mountain was razed to the ground and became what it is now. At that time, my primordial spirit had been extinguished, and I should have been destroyed, but the fragment of the jade bead entrusted to me by the lord locked half of my life, and it transformed my remaining soul into a divine beast that guarded the fragment. β
Mythical beasts? Xie Lingxu felt that it was good that he didn't drink water, and he wouldn't let him squirt his face after listening to Jie'an Yuanzun's reputation for the monster he had transformed......
"But now...... I finally waited for the person whose fragments should be delivered, and I was able to leave with peace of mind. β
Xie Lingxu showed a look of sighing and pity, but he thought that it was better for him to die than to live, and if he had such an ugly body, he would definitely be better off than dead.
Restrained his chaotic thoughts, Xie Lingxu himself still showed a little respect for the former, only to see Jie'an Yuanzun suddenly raise his head, his eyes revealing unprecedented peace and tranquility......
The former's body gradually became light and transparent, and Xie Lingxu quietly watched his phantom disappear little by little, but when the phantom of the predecessor was about to be exhausted, Jie'an Yuanzun suddenly knelt down in the direction of Xie Lingxu......
Xie Lingxu, who felt inexplicable, was stunned, and saw the man in front of him kneeling on the ground, and his voice echoed in the silent air-
"Lord Si Hu is virtuous and noble, and his longevity is boundless......"
