Chapter 128: Bloodstains
It's just that my eyes couldn't help but look at Ji Zixuan next to me, and then at the old wandering spirit, and I could only express my apologies and pity with my eyes, as for doing any more small actions, I didn't dare.
"You don't like me right now?" The old ghost seemed to have discovered that I was also afraid of Ji Zixuan, and I unconsciously carried a little fear when I spoke.
This one just frowned at his good-looking brow now, and didn't mean to explain.
I knew it was going to be bad as soon as I saw it.
The old ghost looked at me pleadingly, and it seemed that he had been frightened by Ji Zixuan.
"Well, I want to know, what the hell is going on? I see that your attitude towards this old geist is very unusual. I looked at him cautiously, not daring to say more.
Ji Zixuan did not remain silent this time.
"You can't be that close to him. There is also Yin Qi attached to his body, and you will be hurt. ”
Hearing Ji Zixuan's words, the feeling in my heart for a moment was a little complicated and difficult to understand. I obviously wanted to explain, but looking into his eyes, I couldn't speak for a while.
I looked at him blankly, and for a moment I was a little stunned.
"But, aren't you there?" I really didn't know that he had such worries in his heart. But when I heard him, I knew everything he did was for me.
Ji Zixuan's eyes suddenly lit up, like the starlight of the entire galaxy, all in his eyes.
"You're not afraid of me here?"
I could see the solemnity in his eyes, and I could even imagine his mood at the moment.
Somehow, I didn't want to lie to him at all.
Besides, if he hadn't protected me along the way, I might have died a long time ago.
There was still some caution on his face, as if he was a child in desperate need of affirmation.
I looked at him like this, and my heart softened.
I don't know where the courage came from, I actually grabbed his hand at once.
"Yes."
At this moment, he was interrupted by the unceremonious coughing of the old wanderer.
"Well, you guys seem to have a little misunderstanding of my current situation. It's not that I forgot, I'm not a human anymore, but a ghost. As for the yin qi in me, it is not like that of you humans. ”
I quickly broke free of my hand, and then I remembered that there were other people in the room. For a while, his face was ashamed and annoyed.
Ji Zixuan didn't care, he grabbed my hand again.
"This is just your one-sided statement, how do I know if what you say is true or false? What if you're lying? ”
The old ghost was angry for a while, and his face was a little unsightly.
My attention is already on Po.
Po didn't seem to have the slightest intention of waking up. But his face is much better than before.
"Don't worry, if I really have that ability, I will definitely clean you up first." The old ghost was unceremonious, and glanced at Ji Zixuan.
I looked at Po in surprise.
"His face is much better."
The worries of the past few days have finally put my mind at ease.
It's just that Ji Zixuan's face is still very ugly.
"It's not the same as before."
I know that she has always had a grudge against Po in her heart. Didn't care.
A smug look flashed on the old ghost's face, followed by a deep sense of worry.
"I've been giving her a lot of practice these days. This is the first spirit that has just been firmly established, but it is only a part of the memory, and there is still a long way to go before she wakes up. Even the old ghost's face flashed a little helpless.
The old ghost's face suddenly looked like a few years old, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.
He slumped at the end of the bed.
"Even if I knew, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to go."
When I heard this, I was intrigued. I wanted to ask directly, but in the end, I still cared about Ji Zixuan who was next to me.
I thought that even if I agreed, in the end, Ji Zixuan would contribute.
"Where the hell is it?"
I didn't expect Ji Zixuan to ask directly.
The old geist sighed: "Before, I asked other ghosts to help inquire about the news, but they came with a piece of news that was not very good. ”
I felt a little uneasy in my heart, but when I thought of the thousand-year-old snake spirit, those uneasiness were blown away in the end.
"They say that quite a few ghosts have escaped from a dark hole, and none of the ghosts that have escaped look very good. Some have lost their minds, and some have become physically crippled. They brought out a message. ”
I listened quietly, for fear that one of them would miss something big.
The old ghost looked at us a few times, and a look of embarrassment flashed on his face.
"Even if you don't talk about this, we'll have to go and check it out in the end. So what's going on? ”
Ji Zixuan's face was definitely not good-looking, but he was just an old wandering soul, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
"If it's just a simple question, I'm not that worried. However, according to those who still have their sanity, there are people there who are hunting ghosts for alchemy. ”
"Alchemy?" I had some doubts in my heart, the most important thing in this dense forest was ghosts, but this person's behavior still made me a little puzzled. If you want to refine medicine, you shouldn't have any choice. How could it be so coincidental?
"It's not that simple, is it?" Ji Zixuan looked at the old ghost fixedly.
Even if I didn't face him directly, I could guess how angry he was right now.
I don't know what he was thinking, I just shook his hand backwards.
"If it's just refining medicine, it's not so terrifying. The most important thing is that those elixirs are mainly based on the ghost of the little girl. ”
The old ghost sighed heavily.
"Nothing else, mainly the children here, many of them were protected by adults. But those little girls have been arrested, do you think those who protect them can still live well? ”
As soon as I heard this, I knew that Ji Zixuan's previous guess should be wrong.
If the alchemy is only based on the main material of the ghost, maybe it may really be made by Po. But now the person refining the medicine is mainly a little girl, so it is absolutely impossible to be Bao.
"You said before that they were all caught in a black cave. Do you know what that black cave is? Why were all those ghosts caught there? "I don't know why he's asking the old ghost so much.
The old ghost looked at him, and his eyes revealed a bit of appreciation.
"I was a little skeptical, and even here, there aren't many people who can catch those ghosts in large numbers. They are also familiar with us here, so they can only be people here. As for the cave, I suspect it's the lair of a thousand-year-old snake spirit. ”
Ji Zixuan frowned, obviously dissatisfied with this answer.
"How can you be sure that this is the lair of the thousand-year-old snake spirit? Anyone saw it? ”
The old ghost shook his head: "If they really see it, they may not be able to come out." The reason I say this is because among the escaped ghosts, someone brought something interesting. ”
Ji Zixuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"What's that?"
The old wandering spirit mysteriously took out a black thing.
I took it from him, and it was so heavy that I almost couldn't hold it.
There was a slight fishy smell on it, it smelled like blood, and it smelled like something fishy.
"Could this be the scales of a thousand-year-old snake spirit?"
I looked at the scales in my hand, which was bigger than my palm, and the guess flashed through my mind.
"If this thing is not mistaken, it should only be produced when the snake molts. The fact that those ghosts were able to bring this thing out means that there are not many of them there. It is most likely a lair of the thousand-year-old snake spirit. ”
I listened to the old ghost and reasoned analysis, I don't know why, I actually felt a little uneasy.
Ji Zixuan took the scale from my hand.
He took it in his hand and took it at it closely.
"Why did you take it?" Although I still don't think I can see anything from it, I still feel a little embarrassed to let Ji Zixuan take it away like this.
"What's there to see? It's just a scale. And it smells so strong, so why do you just go for it? ”
I listened to Ji Zixuan's words, but smiled embarrassedly.
For a moment, I felt a little apologetic. I seem to think too badly of him.
"There seems to be some blood on this piece? I don't know whose it is. ”
"We don't know anything about it here. In addition to the thousand-year-old snake spirit, are there any other powerful characters here? There are still blood stains on it, who can guarantee that it was not his opponent who cut it off on the thousand-year-old snake spirit? ”
The old geist just shook his head.
Ji Zixuan looked at me worriedly.
"What's wrong?" I looked at him quizzically. I don't know how it suddenly became like this.
He turned his head: "It's fine." The voice was still as cold as ever.
But I clearly felt a little aggrieved.
Before, he was obviously not like this.
The old geist winked at me, and I didn't know what had happened for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
Ji Zixuan didn't look at me.
There was also something wrong with the old ghost's expression.
"By the way, you said that the blood was able to stay on the scales before, does it mean that there is something special about this blood? This blood should be the blood of a special person. "Say your own guess.
But I didn't expect Ji Zixuan's face to change at all, as if he had expected it a long time ago, but the old wandering spirit looked at me hesitantly.
"It's possible that you say that. But whose blood would it be? ”
I thought about it, and there were only a few people in it. The most special thing I know is the man in black.
It's just that Ji Zixuan didn't know where to take out a small vial of blood.
"Let's take a closer look, isn't this it?"
I took the vase from his hand, but I had a strange feeling in my heart.
When I poured the blood out, the weird feeling got even stronger.
Because the blood is clearly fresh.
I had some doubts in my heart, I didn't remember when Ji Zixuan had preserved his blood.
He saw my skeptical look, but he didn't give me an explanation.
I shook my head and shook off all the bad thoughts in my mind.
"It's not." I compared the blood from the two places and came up with this result. I didn't know why in my heart, but I breathed a sigh of relief. My eyes felt that the blood was supposed to be related to someone.
"By the way, don't you still have a piece of blood?"
I lost my mind for a moment, and I forgot what I had thought about before.
"Yes, I still have a piece of black blood here."
I quickly found the blood.
When I poured the blood onto the scales, I found that the blood was the same as the stain on the scales.
"It's him!" I'm a little out of shape.
