Chapter Seventy-Five: Mutation

Ye Yuyao jumped off the cliff, the wind whistled in her ears, the cliff here was steep and steep, a large area of rock was exposed, and she was about to fall to the bottom of the cliff, she took a deep breath, quickly stretched out her left hand and grabbed a raised rock, and the falling body suddenly stopped, and stopped dangerously on the mountainside.

But this is not without a price, Ye Yuyao's left arm was dislocated due to the force of the fall, and she can only use her half-crippled left hand to grasp the rock next to her to ensure that she does not fall, and her left arm is hanging next to her body.

The dislocated joints and injured palms made her break out in a cold sweat, but fortunately, the rocks below were in the shape of a ladder that allowed her to climb down slowly.

When she was about to approach the bottom of the cliff, her hand finally couldn't support it, and Ye Yuyao fell directly to the ground.

Eh!

Her back hit the rubble, and she couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

She stood up, grabbed her left arm with her right hand, and clicked it back, but she still couldn't push too hard, otherwise it would be bad to become a habitual dislocation.

The moonlight in the sky only reflected a little afterglow at the bottom of the valley, and Ye Yuyao now had no spiritual power to run the Burning Flame Golden Pupil, so she could only follow the dim light and grope forward.

The bottom of the cliffs in the West Mountain is full of rockfalls and mud, and there are hardly any plants in sight, only some moss breeding.

As she walked, she felt a chill on her feet and neck, it was actually a scorpion, she kicked the scorpion away, and sat down next to a stone illuminated by the moonlight.

She was now injured in many places, and her spiritual power was empty, it was too dangerous to walk in an unfamiliar dark environment, she walked to the side and found some dry moss and dead leaves, and used the last trace of spiritual power to urge the flame to ignite the moss and make a fire, and she was also exhausted and fainted.

The next day, village chief Shen beat gongs and drums early in the morning and shouted that the girls of the whole village would gather together.

"Yesterday the mountain god had a decree! Ask all the girls in the village to go halfway up the mountain to chant for him, and if they don't go, they will be treated as a tribute for the next offering. ”

The villagers looked panicked, and some asked,

"Can you keep my daughter safe?"

Shen Xiu said calmly,

"This time the leader is Mr. Zhang, who will personally take the lead in chanting and offering to the mountain gods."

When the villagers heard that Mr. Zhang was also going, they were naturally relieved a lot, after all, everyone saw what Zhang Starling had done over the years, and he was a good person who didn't charge money for teaching on weekdays.

"Since Mr. Zhang can accompany him, then we people can rest assured."

So they had daughters, and each of them went home and brought her out.

Zhang Xing was dressed especially solemnly today, with a black robe trimmed with gold trim, a black jade folding fan in his hand, and a crown on his head.

The girls behind him stood in a long line, and the chatter was not very lively.

"Stop, stop talking! Now let me count the number of people. ”

Zhang Xing quietly pinched a handprint behind him, and his eyes were covered with a layer of black mist.

These girls turned into clusters of light in his eyes, and the brighter they were, the more abundant the blood of Yuan Yin in his body.

"There are forty-two in total, and not one is bad."

Zhang Xing made a look, Shen Xiu comprehended, and hurriedly urged the villagers to leave.

"Let's go, let's go, let Mr. Zhang take the children up the mountain."

"Scattered, scattered, there is still life in the ground!"

"Let's go."

Zhang Xing sneered, a group of fools.

He took all the girls in the village and walked on the path of the West Mountain, and when the last girl walked into the mountain, he mobilized the formation to shroud the entire West Mountain in a thick fog.

……

Ahem!

Ye Yuyao coughed twice, opened her eyes slightly, and the dazzling sunlight shone on the bottom of the cliff.

She quickly got up, her throat dry as if a fire was burning.

"Water... water..."

She shook her head in a trance, the sun shining at the bottom of the cliff, and a pool of water shimmering with a dazzling sheen not far away.

She hurriedly ran to the edge of the pool and took two sips, which eased her thirst.

Ye Yuyao stretched out her hand to scoop up a little pool water and wiped her dirty face, but she didn't expect that after washing her face, she felt that her right hand was a little itchy, and the place that had been corroded by black blood was rapidly scabbing and falling off.

"This pool of water is amazing."

She took a closer look, and there was a mirror at the bottom of the turquoise pool that looked like it was made of silver, and she reached out to fish it up, but couldn't find it.

But after thinking about it, she was not greedy, and gently wiped the injured part of her body with water, and the wounds or bruises recovered quickly, which was simply a healing medicine.

When the injury was almost recovered, Ye Yuyao stood up from the edge of the pond, her white clothes were covered with mud and blood, her two sleeves were torn at the root, and her face was full of embarrassment.

"I knew I would have put on soft armor when I came."

At the bottom of the cliff is a pit, with a steep cliff to the west and a steep slope of three to five meters to the east.

She found a few branches from the ground and kicked them into the dirt one by one to make an improvised ladder.

After climbing up, Ye Yuyao finally recognized where she was, this was a large forest near Xishan, and it would take at least a day and a half to walk back to the royal capital from here.

I'm afraid that Zhang Starling and Shen Xiu, the two old thieves, have run away in a day and a half, and without the corpse king Shen Xiu is equivalent to being wasted, Zhang Starling hasn't fought much and doesn't know if he is his opponent.

However, the two of them probably thought that they were dead, and if they went back to Shenjia Village immediately, they would still be able to catch them.

Ye Yuyao made a decision immediately, first found some edible wild fruits to cushion her stomach, and then immediately sat cross-legged in place, absorbing the surrounding aura.

The speed at which she absorbed her spiritual power was like that of a long whale absorbing water, and it only took an hour to recover all her spiritual power.

Now all she has to do is return to Shenjia Village and kill those two thieves.

……

At this time, halfway up the West Mountain, a huge shack was temporarily erected, and it was full of girls who were forcibly locked in.

Zhang Xing arranged a warning array around him, and Shen Xiu also happened to arrive.

"Is it all closed?"

"It's off, it's midnight now."

"How's your research on the woman's blood?"

"With her blood, there is a chance that the corpse king will wake up by two percent."

"How many percent are there now?"

"Thirty percent."

"That's only fifty percent... Huh..."

"That woman's flame is really domineering, whenever the fire encounters the corpse king's poisonous blood, it will be directly extinguished, but her flame can continue to scorch the corpse king's flesh and blood, if it is not for the poisonous blood, which has a powerful repair ability, I'm afraid she won't be able to move the corpse king."

"Good thing she's dead! After repairing the corpse king, we will leave quickly, and if we stay any longer, I am afraid that the real big man will come. ”

"Well, fix it tonight and leave early tomorrow morning."

……

Ye Yuyao recovered her spiritual power in the forest, and she was ready to find a way up the mountain.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she was shrouded in a thick white mist, and the visibility was less than three meters.

Fortunately, the mist was ineffective against the flaming golden pupils, allowing her to quickly rush to the mountain.

The more she went up, the more gloomy this western mountain became, obviously it was the scorching sun, but she felt a little cold for some reason.

Halfway up the mountain, Ye Yuyao saw that in Zhang Xing's residence, there was an extra shed next to the house, and there were faint cries for help from inside.

Zhang Starling was grinding some unknown herbs on the grass in front of the house, and Shen Xiu was walking in and out of the black cloth shed on the side.

Ye Yuyao quietly touched the side of the shack, put her ear against the wall and held her breath, and there was a faint sound of talking inside.

"Sister Ninety, when will we be able to go out, I'm hungry."

"I don't know, I still have two pieces of pancake here for you to eat."

"I don't feel like I have any strength at all, why did Mr. Zhang lock us up here."

"I don't know."

Ye Yuyao's heart sank, Zhang Starling locked them up here, probably to repair the corpse king. So many people say that they will kill, and his heart is really ruthless.

She quietly left the shed, Shen Xiu was in control of the Corpse King, and the black cloth he was busy with must be the remains of the Corpse King.

Ye Yuyao cautiously circled around the shed, Zhang Starling seemed to notice something, his fingers closed and trembled slightly, and he saw Ye Yuyao's every move.

Taking advantage of Shen Xiu going out, she went directly into the black cloth, and as soon as she entered, she smelled a disgusting smell of corpses, Ye Yuyao covered her nose and saw the corpse king in the coffin.

The corpse king was lying in a coffin with a broken body, surrounded by some blackened oily substance.

Ye Yuyao's fingertips lit a little flame, I didn't burn you to ashes last time, so let's do it again, this time there is no black blood to see how you can resist.

At the moment when her fingertips touched the body of the corpse king, there was a roar outside,

"Bafang Town!"

She suddenly felt her body become heavy, and the fingertips that were about to touch the corpse king slid down, wiping away.

Shen Xiu hurriedly pulled away the black cloth,

"Slut, you're not dead yet!"

Ye Yuyao was not panicked when she was discovered, the most threatening corpse king was still lying in the coffin.

"If you two don't die, I won't die first!"

When she was about to set fire to the Corpse King, she found that her fingers couldn't get close to the Corpse King's body anyway.

What's going on!

"Hmph, you can't run today."

Zhang Xing tore the black cloth open, and a seal appeared on the black coffin in front of Ye Yuyao, and it was this seal that prevented her from touching the Corpse King.

The scorpion tail behind him turned into a green shadow and rushed towards Ye Yuyao, this time she had already taken precautions and dodged the stab in advance, and Zhang Starling's scorpion tail poked a small hole in the ground.

Ye Yuyao took the opportunity to step on his tail, Zhang Xing pulled it twice but didn't pull it, his face was slightly angry, his sleeves flipped over, and he drank the bottle of weird potion.

A layer of black gas was used on his white face, and even the scorpion tail on his tail turned from green to black-green, he pulled it hard, Ye Yuyao couldn't hold it back, and directly asked him to take the tail back, and then threw it back like a whip.

Ye Yuyao bent back sharply, the back of her head pressed against her calf to avoid the sweep of the scorpion tail, she didn't have a weapon that she could use now, except for dodging against Zhang Xing.

"Shen Xiu, I'm dragging it here, you let the corpse king eat them, and it will change later!"
