Chapter 80: The Seeds of the Ginseng Fruit
The Ice Fairy and I helped the Queen and Pixiu through the difficulties, and they gave us ginseng fruit, which was a deal, and there was no affection, so the Queen's tone towards me and the Ice Fairy was also cold.
"It will take at least ten days for my injuries to recover as before, with your own strength, you can't beat Sima Leiyan at all, if you want to help us, you must snatch that totem staff back."
"To defeat Sima Leiyan, why do you have to have a totem staff?" I asked.
"Because ......."
The queen said a lot, and I finally understood.
More than 2,000 years ago, the ancient country of Loulan had just been founded, it was once strong, with the passage of time, the ancient country of Loulan gradually declined, and later, an unprecedented storm of yellow sand completely swept the ancient country of Loulan, if nothing else, the ancient country of Loulan will be buried in the rolling yellow sand.
But fortunately, an accident appeared, Pixiu suddenly appeared at this time, Pixiu moved all the people of the entire ancient country of Loulan to this secret realm, and since then, isolated from the world, it has been more than 2,000 years.
Pixiu saved the lives of millions of people in the ancient country of Loulan, and they respected Pixiu as a totem, and Pixiu also guarded the entire ancient country of Loulan.
And time is the most ruthless thing, Pixiu is powerful, but it is also a demon beast after all, and the demon beast only has a thousand lifespans, in this secret realm, Pixiu is slowly aging, about to turn into dust.
In ancient times, there was a legend that the totem guarded the people, and if the totem was recognized by the people, as long as the people prayed for the totem for seven days and seven nights, the totem spirit could be immortal.
People remember what Pixiu did for them, and they couldn't bear Pixiu to die, so the people of the whole country, whether it was the old man in the twilight, or the crying baby, whether it was a man with strong blood and strength, or a gentle and amiable woman, they all knelt down and prayed, praying that Pixiu would live forever.
The prayers of the crowd finally worked, and although Pixiu's body was dead, he left behind a mass of spirit.
Later, the ancient country of Loulan used the power of the whole country to create a staff that can hold the soul, so it was named the totem staff, if Pixiu left the staff, it was just a group of spirits, although there was consciousness, but there was no slightest combat effectiveness, if Pixiu and the totem staff were combined into one, Pixiu could exert the power of the heyday.
As long as Pixiu reaches its heyday, it will definitely be able to defeat Sima Leiyan, so in order to defeat Sima Leiyan, it is necessary to recapture the Totem Staff.
In order to defeat Sima Leiyan, the Totem Staff must be reclaimed.
Now that Sima Leiyan has gradually eliminated the strength of the empress, in time, Sima Leiyan will firmly control the entire palace, and it will be even more difficult for me to regain the totem staff, so only when Sima Leiyan is not stable can I have a chance to regain the totem staff.
I decided to leave now, leaving the Ice Fairy, the Empress, and Pixiu to wait where they were, and I went alone to grab the Totem Staff.
I walked into the palace along the secret passage, at this moment in the palace, the bloody breath has gradually disappeared, and the corpses in the palace have also been carried out for cremation, only some blood has not been wiped dry, and some eunuchs are cleaning.
I became the size of a palm, and quietly shuttled back and forth through the palace, searching for the totemic staff.
At night, I searched almost the entire palace, but there was no shadow of the totem staff, and it seemed that the totem staff was carried by Sima Leiyan.
The thing I am most afraid of is that the totem staff is carried by Sima Leiyan, Sima Leiyan's strength is far above me, and if I want to take back the totem staff from his hand, the possibility is almost zero.
I waited anxiously, waiting for Sima Leiyan.
At night, I finally saw Sima Leiyan's figure, and behind him, there were seven warriors, one of whom was holding a totem staff in his hand.
I went up and snatched at this time, it was tantamount to looking for death, and I had to wait, wait for them to sleep.
I don't believe that Sima Leiyan can still be with the seven warriors while he sleeps, as long as they are separated, if the totem staff is still kept by the seven warriors, I have the possibility of taking it.
I waited and waited, and I was disheartened when I waited, these eight people were like night owls, I waited for two days and two nights, and these eight people did not sleep, and they were still busy, controlling the entire royal city step by step.
It took Sima Leiyan two days to finally control all the royal city, and my chance finally came, because Sima Leiyan and the seven warriors finally slept.
I watched cautiously at Sima Leiyan's every move, and I watched as the warrior handed the totem staff into Sima Leiyan's hand, and then the seven warriors went to sleep.
I'm going crazy, the totem staff was handed over to Sima Leiyan, how can I take it, can I beat Sima Leiyan?
I watched as Sima Leiyan walked into a room with a totem staff, and outside the room, there were two guards.
The totem staff is protected by Sima Leiyan, and it is impossible to rob it hard, for the sake of today, the only way to do it is to steal.
If you want to steal something, you have to be silent, and the first thing I have to do is to kill the two guards at the door quietly.
It may seem difficult for others to kill two guards quietly, but for me it is very simple, because I have the eyes of heaven and can easily control them.
I didn't rush to make a move, I had to wait, wait for Sima Leiyan to fall asleep.
An hour later, I could already hear the snort of Sima Leiyan on the roof, and I decided to make a move.
I urged the eyes of heaven to open the sky, released two divine soul powers, and directly hit the two guards, although these two guards are monks, but their strength is very weak, I am a demon beast, it is still easy to control them.
The eyes of the two guards were instantly glazed, and they stood there, motionless, and I became the size of a palm, and quietly pushed the door open.
The sound of snorting came into my ears, and Sima Leiyan didn't notice anything abnormal, and he was still asleep.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the totem staff at first sight, and my heart was suddenly cold.
Although Sima Leiyan was asleep, his hands were not idle, holding his weapon and golden gun in one hand, and the totem staff in the other.
I observed Sima Leiyan's hands, and found that his hands were tightly holding two weapons, as soon as I moved the totem staff, Sima Leiyan must wake up, it is impossible to steal, for today's plan, the only way to do this is to kill Sima Leiyan first and grab the totem staff.
I quietly walked over, stirred up the true qi of my whole body, and quickly became the size of a person, holding the Dragon Slaying Treasure Knife in my hand, and wanted to kill Sima Leiyan.
I was getting closer and closer to Sima Leiyan, Sima Leiyan's snorting sound continued, I looked at Sima Leiyan's neck, and slashed it down with a knife.
Sima Leiyan is worthy of being a master, as soon as I made a move, Sima Leiyan woke up and reacted quickly, and the golden gun hurriedly resisted my dragon slaying sword.
Although Sima Leiyan's strength is strong, but in a hurry, where can I block my full strength, my sword slashed into Sima Leiyan's left arm, Sima Leiyan screamed, his left hand trembled slightly, and the totem staff fell to the ground.
I quickly stepped forward and snatched the totem staff, Sima Leiyan hurriedly danced the golden gun to block me, although Sima Leiyan was slashed by me, but the strength is still there, the golden gun in his hand is extremely sharp, even if it is one-handed, I can't take advantage of it at all.
The sound of me fighting with Sima Leiyan quickly spread, and a group of soldiers and a strong man quickly arrived and outflanked me.
I'm really about to go crazy in my heart, Sima Leiyan was injured by me, the totem staff is right in front of me, I'm one step away from success, but it's just this step, but it's like a moat, so I can't surpass.
In the end, I decided to give it a try, striking the frozen world with one hand and the dragon slayer knife with the other.
I tried my best, and Sima Leiyan also fought hard, he used the golden gun to hold my treasure knife, desperately waved my left arm that was cut by me, and desperately stopped my two major killing moves.
In the end, Sima Leiyan was seriously injured again, I didn't grab the totem staff, the sound of footsteps outside was getting closer and closer, I knew that if I didn't run again, surrounded by them, even if I grabbed the totem staff, I wouldn't be able to escape.
I gave up, kicked open the window, and got out of the way, Sima Leiyan was seriously injured and did not chase me, and his seven warriors came to kill me, but with their strength, they still could not catch me, and in the end, I successfully escaped.
I went into the secret passage, groped in the darkness for a while, and finally saw the light.
The queen, Pixiu, and the ice fairy were all excited when they saw me come out, but when they looked at my hand, there was only a dragon slaying knife, and they knew that I didn't grab the totem staff.
This time I almost snatched the totem staff, although I seriously injured Sima Leiyan, but after Sima Leiyan has learned this lesson, he will definitely send heavy troops to protect the totem staff, we are in a weak position, and now we have lost the opportunity, and if we want to grab the totem staff, the hope is almost zero.
I told the queen what had happened, and they looked so depressed that for a moment I didn't know what to do.
The next morning, as soon as I woke up, I saw the queen bring out a black, round thing.
The queen handed it to me and said to me. "This is the seed of the ginseng fruit, after you eat it, it can increase your strength by three times in three hours, and after you eat it, you can fight with Sima Leiyan."
I looked at the seed of the ginseng fruit in the queen's hand, and I was surprised in my heart, but I didn't take this seed immediately, this seed can increase the strength of three times, why didn't the queen take it out earlier, I had to wait until we were desperate.
I stared at this seed and said, "This seed can increase my strength by three times, which is a treasure, why don't you use it for yourself, but use it for me." ”
"We don't talk darkly, the ginseng fruit is the supreme treasure, but its seed is a poison."
"After swallowing the seeds of the ginseng fruit, it will increase your strength three times in an hour, but after an hour, the poison of the ginseng fruit seeds will penetrate deep into your bone marrow, and you will lose all your strength, and even die."
