Chapter 63: The Way Home, V
At the edge of the woods, a very miserable figure appeared.
His clothes were torn into rags, and his body was covered in wounds. These external injuries are not serious yet, the important thing is the internal injuries.
The resistance of the Secret Mansion was as strong as that of the Secret House, and it was almost destroyed by a single blow. Neifu was seriously injured, and it is estimated that it is impossible to recover without a month of recuperation.
Deacon Lu's face was like gold paper, he spit out a large amount of blood again, looked back, remembered the monster's blow just now, and his eyes were full of horror.
But fortunately, the other party just gave up with one blow and did not catch up again.
Wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and shook his body towards the town.
-----
Jizo dissipated the earth energy from his body and returned to his original form.
It's not that he doesn't want to kill the enemy, it's that he can't chase. This is already the edge of this leyline. If he goes beyond this range, he will not be able to obtain Earth Qi. And Childe is in a dangerous situation right now, and in his opinion, nothing is more important than protecting Childe's safety.
It turned out that as early as when he was being chased by Deacon Lu, Qin Jue checked the terrain of the nearby area through the Kyushu Creation Map.
Originally, I was thinking to see if I could use the terrain to get rid of the other party's pursuit. Unexpectedly, they found that not far from them, there was an earth spirit vein.
Remembering that Jizo had told himself that the spirit he had awakened was the spirit of the earth, and if he was above the spirit veins of the earth, his strength would skyrocket. So, he had the previous decision.
In fact, Qin Jue was not sure, after he stayed to block the other party, he still had a chance to survive. At that time, there was no better way but to stay and delay time. If he really died, at least Jizo and Ouyang Fei could survive.
Afraid of encountering danger again, Jizo used the energy of the leylines to open up a deep cave within the range of the leylines, and temporarily placed Childe in it to recuperate.
Qin Jie's injuries this time were even more serious than the last time. This time it was not only an internal injury, but also an external injury. Especially on the back, the attack of the Genki Blade is not like a sharp blade, but only a wound is cut. When the Genki Blade hits the target, it also has the effect of exploding.
As a result, a large amount of skin and muscles in the back were torn, and the entire back was a blur of flesh and blood, and there was too much blood loss.
However, Qin Jie's recovery ability is really amazing. After taking the elixir of the Immortal Grass, the wound on his back was slowly growing and healing.
This miraculous recovery is simply unheard of. So, Jizo and Ouyang Fei, every once in a while, would put their faces close to each other's backs and stare at each other for a while, while secretly marveling at each other.
It's no wonder that Qin Jie's life is so hard, if such an injury is replaced by other Yuan Xiu. If you don't climb for three or five months, you don't want to recover, even if you have the help of heaven and earth. It won't be as perverted as he is recovering at the same speed.
Three days later, Qin Jue opened his eyes. The flesh injury on the back is no longer much of a problem. It's just that some of the tendons and bones are still slowly growing and healing.
However, it no longer affects his activities. You can sit up and recuperate from the injuries of the inner house.
After another two days, the flesh wounds had fully recovered. Neifu's injuries have been recuperated for seven or eight minutes, and the rush is no longer affected.
However, under the persuasion of Jizo and Ouyang Fei, the three of them stayed in the cave for another day.
"Jizo, did you open up this cave?" After a period of recuperation, Qin Jue felt that his internal injuries had basically recovered completely. I opened my eyes and looked at this cave, which I had been staying in for five or six days. There was a contemplative look in his eyes, and then he asked Jizo.
"Yes, but it's not a pioneer, I'm not good at it, I just used the energy of the earth's spiritual veins to punch it!" Jizo replied with an embarrassed smile.
"Then why do you want to go so deep!" Qin Jue looked at the deep and bottomless cave passage.
Jizo touched his head and sneered, "I missed." ”
"I didn't expect Jizo to be so powerful, even I was scared by you at the time. Ouyang Fei chuckled and winked at Jizo.
"Since you've worked hard to create it, we'll have to see how deep it is. After Qin Jue finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the bottom of the cave.
Jizo wondered a little in his heart, and secretly said, "What's there to see here, it's just a pit that was bombarded casually." Although he had doubts, he still followed Qin Du and walked inside.
Ouyang Fei had the same doubts and followed the two forward.
Qin Jue's perception was extremely sharp, and the slightest movement around him could not escape the capture of his spiritual power.
These days in the cave, occasionally feel a slight air flow coming from the cave. Once or twice he didn't care, and the more times it caught his attention.
There is an air outflow, indicating that it is definitely not a dead place inside. Could it be that Jizo actually punched the earth through? This is obviously impossible, there should be another mystery inside, right?
Not long after the three of them walked down the cave, the direction of the cave began to twist and turn.
"Yo! Jizo, you still say that your skills are not good. Isn't that good? The punch is so deep that it can still bend. Qin Jue quipped.
Jizo is just stupid, and at this time he also understands that it is very likely that this place was originally an underground passage, but it was just opened by himself by mistake.
"Childe, did you find anything?"
"It's hard to say now, let's just go ahead and take a look, and then we will understand. ”
The cave was dark, but fortunately, Ouyang Fei carried Jingjiong with him, and after opening it, the light illuminated the space of a few meters before and after the three of them.
With the light source, the pace of the three of them increased.
I had been walking along the cave for nearly half a day, just when Qin Jue was about to give up and turn back. Suddenly, a strange world appeared in front of the three of them.
"Wow! I didn't expect there to be such a magical scene deep underground!"
The three of them were shocked for a moment, and Ouyang Fei couldn't help but exclaim.
There is a huge space in front of you, with no top or bottom.
The earth and stone overhead bridges are large and small, some go straight, some bend, staggered back and forth, overlap up and down, communicate with each other, and the structure becomes a strange scene.
Occasionally, stalactites stretch vertically from an unknown height, and there seems to be some energy on them, emitting light and illuminating this strange world.
"Doesn't this look like a huge overpass?" Qin Jue also said with a sigh.
"Childe, what is the overpass?" Jizo asked, confused.
"Oh, a kind of traffic construction, that is, a lot of bridges, three-dimensional roads, very similar to the scene in front of you. ”
"I see. Jizo nodded, paused slightly, and then said, "Why have I never seen or heard anyone say, where did Childe meet?"
"Hmm,,," Qin Jue thought for a moment and said to Jizo with a smile: "I also heard that people who have too many problems will slowly become stupid. Have you never heard of it either?"
Jizo wanted to ask, who said that? In a blink of an eye, he saw Childe's smiling appearance, and shut up smartly.
This place is similar to the ancient forest surrounding the Hall of Eternal Life in that secret realm. It's just that the view here is wide, and it looks even more spectacular.
Qin was determined to think in his heart, so he stepped onto a dirt and stone bridge that connected the ground under his feet, and walked towards this strange world.
