Fengyun Chapter 28: The Ruthless Man (1)
It doesn't feel like time has passed in this space.
When those superb spiritual essences accumulated to an astonishing amount, the pearl baby finally came to the exit.
In the silent valley, a colorful bead suddenly sprang out of a hidden cave. The bead streaked through the air, rolled among the flowers and plants, and fell into a stream.
Mingzhu burst out of the water, shaking the stream on his body, and then four big living people appeared in this small valley.
Xiao Junyu stepped into the small puddle and hurriedly hid to the side.
Ye Yuanyuan looked around, only to feel that the aura here was very strong.
Jing Qingli and Ming Xi stood together, holding a few small spiritual essences in their hands, and chewing them one by one.
Xiao Junyu: ......
Well, it's time to get used to watching it so many times.
Suppressing the regret in his heart for those superb spiritual essences, Xiao Junyu turned his head to look at the surrounding environment: "Where is this?" Shouldn't it be in the Sanctuary? ”
The valley is gentle, with only a small stream gurgling down from the ridge. The lush grass in the valley was only ankle-high, and along the stream, some snake orchids shyly spat out small white flowers.
The water is crystal clear, and the small fry that cannot be named swim around at the bottom of the water.
Not far away there is an old house, which looks dilapidated and has been abandoned for many years.
Next to the house, what barely became a fence surrounded a dead tree, under which there was a mound of earth overgrown with wild flowers and weeds.
A fresh breeze blew through the valley, the flowers and plants swayed, and the dead trees and old houses that stood opposite everyone seemed to be unable to withstand the breeze, like old men in the twilight.
In this situation, Jing Qingli glanced at Mingxi, but happened to look at him.
In the end, the two of them didn't say anything, and walked towards that place one after the other. Xiao Junyu and Ye Yuanyuan didn't know what the situation was, and they followed a few steps behind.
The old house looked even more dilapidated as it got closer, with most of the wooden steps collapsed, holes in the roof, and black or yellow mushrooms growing on the scattered wood on the ground.
Through the half-open windows, you can see that the interior of the house is also generally decayed.
The dead tree had also been dead for a long time, and there were still scorched marks on it, as if it had been struck by lightning. The branches grow unevenly on both sides, with more branches on the side towards the mound.
It was as if the tree had not yet died, and had grown to the mound with all its might, and had used its branches and leaves to keep the mound from the wind and rain.
Jing Qingli squatted down, brushed aside the weeds, and picked up a broken piece of wood.
There should have been inscriptions on the wooden blocks, but unfortunately the age is too old, even if the carving is very deep, the insects and the wind and rain, the words on it have long been unrecognizable.
There was a guess in his heart, and the answer was Xiao Junyu's previous question: "We are now in Xizhou, if I guess correctly, this should be the place where the legendary Sishi is hidden." ”
Xiao Junyu hadn't heard of any polycytes, but Ye Yuanyuan lived in the demon world in his early years, and he had also heard a little about some ancient legends.
"I heard that hundreds of years ago, there was a stone on the top of Kunshan, born with a spirit, taking the stars and hiding them for himself, Ye Ye shines, and the fate of the law intersects the heaven and earth. Despite the vicissitudes of life, it is silent. Legend has it that if a lover can find it, he will be able to form a bond with the world. ”
The little phoenix, which had just grown its tail feathers, held its small chest and told the eleven-year-old Ye child about the legend he had obtained from other monsters.
Little Phoenix has just turned 100 years old, and the family has already arranged for him to take care of his partner. Just wait for the tail feathers to fully grow out to participate in the blind date held by the demon world.
"Has anyone found a polyphob?" Ye asked his playmates out loud.
Speaking of this, the little phoenix looked longing, and her tone was also full of envy: "Xishi cultivated into a human body, fell into the world, and after falling in love with a woman, he returned to the mountains and forests together." Legend has it that the polystone also planted its companion polyth tree in a secluded place, and since then he has been guarding the woman wholeheartedly, and there is no news of the polystone in the world. ”
Ye Yuanyuan is only a fictional legend, who knows that this place is considered by Jing Qingli to be the hidden place of the stone.
Looking at the old houses, dead trees, and mounds in front of him, he really believed Jing Qingli's judgment.
The pearl sprang out of the grass, holding a cyan oval stone tied to a broken rope.
The stone was supposed to be tethered to a branch, probably because of the suspected thunderbolt attack, the rope broke and fell to the ground.
Jing Qingli took it, feeling the residual familiar aura in it, and she sighed. Take out the tortoise shell that had been shattered from before, and put the half-palm-sized stone and tortoise shell together. She bit her fingertips and dripped them in the middle of the stone.
The blood seemed to be alive, and it automatically split into eight strands and flowed in different directions.
"The cloud seal is too empty, at the beginning of the catastrophe. At first glance, sink or float! Jing Qingli recited the soul spell, and continued: "Today, there is a resting stone, absorbing the spirit of heaven and earth, cultivating into a charm, and for some reason the body has fallen, and the soul is destroyed. If you still have wisdom, please answer the remaining doubts! ”
The voice fell, but there was no response.
Jing Qingli frowned, and was about to summon it again with blood, when he saw Ming Xi scoop up Jing Qingli's injured finger, and after a burst of white light, the wound returned to normal.
Seeing that there were still blood stains on the jade-like skin, Mingxia carefully wiped it away.
Jing Qingli let Mingxi move in a daze, but the places touched by Mingxi were a little hot, and the familiar and unfamiliar feeling hit the tip of her heart, making her a little awkward.
Just as he wanted to say that he still needed to summon spirits, Ming Xi reached out and released the same white light as Fang Cai at the stone lying in the turtle shell and stained with Jing Qingli's blood.
"Alright." Mingxi's voice rang in his ears.
The white light slowly wrapped the stone, and then slowly penetrated in, and when the white light completely penetrated, the cyan stone suddenly glowed, like a person who had just been awakened from a deep sleep.
"Hmm...... Who is ......" A childish voice sounded in everyone's ears, and after a moment, he recognized the person holding him, and muttered, "Heavenly Master? I didn't expect to see you again......"
"What the hell happened to you? How did ......" end up so far?
The awakened stone was silent for a moment, and his tone was sad: "Miss Li is seriously ill and her life is about to end...... The master was seriously injured by the thunder because he had damaged his soul because of the previous treatment for Miss Li, and it didn't take long for him to ......"
At this, the stone howled and wept, and the drops of water that poured out of its body merged with the blood stains on its surface, like bloody tears.
He was favored by heaven and earth, entered the Tao with the body of a stubborn stone, and traveled between heaven and earth for hundreds of years, but his soul was destroyed for a thing.
I still remember the man in blue clothes, sitting under the Tsubaki tree, drinking with a group of friends, and smiling heartily. Now that old friends have dissipated in the world, it is difficult to get together in this life.
Jing Qingli lowered her expression, not knowing what she was thinking.
