Chapter 36: The Wooden Man
Because it was the first time he came here, he didn't know if there was something terrible hiding nearby.
The most important thing is that he is afraid of being exposed to the range of silver rays and being eroded by evil qi, so he always keeps a distance of less than a zhang from me.
Because Wuzhiqi was controlled by him, he looked even more fearless.
Seeing a mouth full of sharp teeth about to bite his neck. Cui Han leaned back, and at the same time, the short sword stabbed towards the black shadow.
Only then did I see clearly that it was Kuroko who pounced on him.
As soon as I entered the palace, the sunspot was gone, and I don't know where it went. It may have seen that Wuzhi Banner was in danger, so it hurriedly rushed out.
The short sword grazed Kuroko's stomach, and with a snort, Kuroko's mouth let out a wail and flew towards me.
I quickly held on to it, the dagger leaving a deep blood mark on its stomach. If it goes deeper, it will have to be disemboweled.
Kuroko was tough, still standing in front of me, barking at Cui Han.
Cui Han said disdainfully, "Useless brute! ”
He walked towards Wuzhiqi again, and said, "Let's see who can save you this time!" ”
Of course, I can't watch my ancestors die in front of me. "It's a big deal, we're all going to die!" I said through gritted teeth.
Hearing me say this, Cui Han suddenly understood what I meant.
He didn't pay any attention to Wu Zhiqi, but pounced on me directly. He said, "Hmph, you want to die, I don't want to die yet!" ”
I said viciously, "It's up to you to die or not!" ”
Seeing that he was about to pounce in front of me, I quickly threw the carp pill in my hand.
The carp pill has been using my power to radiate light, and now as soon as it leaves my hand, the light immediately becomes very dim.
When they hit the ground, the light disappeared with it.
Seeing this scene, Cui Han's face was distorted.
He didn't pay any attention to me, but rushed straight to the carp pill. As if he was crazy, he took the carp pill in his hand.
It's just that the carp pill is in his hand, and the light is extremely dim, which is almost the same as when it was in Xin Hongyuan's hand.
He kept saying, "I'm not going to die with you!" I'm going to take the stele back, and the president will definitely be rewarded!" ”
Looking at his scrambled appearance, a sneer leaked from the corner of my mouth.
Cui Han, who was invincible just now, is now crazy, focusing all his strength on the carp pill.
I could see that the black aura was converging around his body.
I slowly walked over to Wuzhiqi.
Wu Zhiqi still had a smile on his face, and said, "I was really right, there are no people in our Wu family who are greedy for life and afraid of death!" ”
I knew that my life was coming to an end, and I said with a smile, "Although I didn't know you before, I may die with you, but I am satisfied." ”
Wu Zhiqi shook his head with a smile and said, "Our Wu family has a special physique, and it is impossible for such a little evil qi to kill us." You can rest assured, I have more important things to do for you. ”
Not far away, Cui Han was already surrounded by evil qi.
Those evil qi was so thick that it seemed to be impossible to dissolve, and Cui Han's desperate voice also came out from inside, "Impossible, I don't want to die!" ”
He said as he tried to run this way. It's just that because I'm surrounded by evil energy, even the speed is much slower.
Seeing me standing beside Wu Zhiqi unharmed, he said viciously, "Aren't you going to die with me?" Since we are going to die, then let's die together! ”
Wu Zhiqi looked at him expressionlessly.
More than a foot away from us, Cui Han couldn't support it, and fell to the ground with his head.
The carp pill in his hand was thrown out far away. Like a snake, he crawled towards this side and said, "Please, help me!" ”
Wu Zhiqi looked at a dead man and said, "At such a time, no one can save you." You are to blame for everything! ”
As soon as his words fell, a terrible scream came.
Seeing that Cui Han's body seemed to be sprinkled with sulfuric acid, the skin and flesh were disappearing at a visible speed.
The screams grew weaker and weaker, until at last only a pile of skeletons was scattered on the ground.
Seeing this scene, I also broke out in a cold sweat, the evil aura in the palace was really terrible.
I wondered even more why I didn't end up in the same fate as him.
As if to see my doubts, Wu Zhiqi said, "For others, evil qi is a very terrifying thing. But for our Wu family, it is a rare good thing, it can help us improve our strength. ”
In fact, I was skeptical of his words before, but now that I am safe and sound, I completely believe in the fact that I am really a descendant of the Wu family.
Facing him, I have an indescribable sense of intimacy.
Wu Zhiqi said, "Everyone regarded me as an enemy at the beginning, and it was because of the heavy evil spirit in the river eye that I fled here. ”
After listening to what he said, I came to my senses and asked, "Ancestor, who caused you to fall into such a situation?" I'll go settle accounts with them. ”
Wu Zhiqi shook his head and said, "Now is not the time. You don't have that kind of skills. I have something to tell you, and you have to listen to it. ”
He's in a bad situation, and it's estimated that he won't be able to survive for long.
He had been breathing a sigh of relief, waiting for me, and those words must have been very important.
I sat next to him and listened carefully to what he said.
Wu Zhiqi looked at the entrance of the palace with some fascination, and said, "Child, you may not know that there are five major river basins in the country. The five major river basins are controlled by five families. Back then, our Wu family was one of them. Later, I accidentally got this stele, and the others wanted to get their hands on it, so they joined forces to hunt me down, and I fell to this point. ”
I was puzzled and asked, "Ancestor, which river basin did our family control back then?" ”
Wu Zhiqi's face was full of pride, and he said, "Among the five major families, our Wu family is the most powerful, controlling the Yangtze River Valley. If we hadn't been betrayed, our Wu family wouldn't have fallen to this point. ”
When he said this, he sighed slightly, a wry smile appeared on his face, and said, "Don't mention the past again." After my accident, some of my people died here with me, and I don't know what happened to the others. Child, after you go out, you must help me find them and make our Wu family prosperous again. ”
I nodded vigorously and said, "Ancestor, don't worry, I won't let you down." ”
Wu Zhiqi patted me on the shoulder with great difficulty and said, "You can't reveal your identity for the time being, the other party is very strong." They won't let you go. You have to quietly increase your strength, and then get back everything that belongs to our Wu family! ”
When he said this, a fine light flashed in his eyes, and an indescribable domineering spirit burst out.
He pointed to the black stele and said to me, "You must keep it well, and it must not fall into the hands of others." Although I have been studying it for a long time, I have not been able to understand the mystery. As far as I know, there is a big secret hidden inside the stele, which is why they joined forces to hunt me down. ”
I put the stele in my backpack, and Wu Zhiqi pointed to his arms and said, "The things in my arms are the ancestral cultivation secret methods of our Wu family. You must learn it to have the ability to compete with the other major families. ”
I looked at his somewhat tattered robe, puzzled. Then he reached in and touched something hard, wood-like.
I was surprised to find that it was actually a black wooden man. The wooden figure is about a foot long, and it is not much different from the size of the stone tablet, so I can't tell what material it is made of.
The back of the wooden figure is carved with a texture like water ripples, and the front is densely written with characters the size of a fly's head.
I just looked at it and I was a little dizzy.
Seeing my appearance, Wu Zhiqi said with a smile, "Don't worry, these things can't be learned in a day or two." As my descendant, I believe that one day, you will definitely be stronger than me. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed slightly and continued, "I guess I won't see that day." ”
Wu Zhiqi's face was full of sadness, he took a deep breath, and said, "Among the five major families, each family has this kind of person in their hands. It's just that the secret methods described above are not the same. Our best skill is the power to control the flow of water, which we call water escape. You'll have to figure out the rest. ”
Looking at the evil qi billowing around me, I asked, "Ancestor, did you cause all this evil qi?" ”
Wu Zhiqi smiled bitterly and said, "You think too highly of me." Actually, they existed before I came in. On the contrary, it is because of me that the evil spirit here has weakened a lot. ”
I looked at the magnificent crystal palace in amazement and asked, "Do you know who built this palace?" ”
