Chapter 5 • Monsters
"But I, can I do anything for you?" Ah Xue didn't quite understand what he meant, but seeing that he was so weak and wanted to help him, he didn't know what to do.
Lan Yi held her hand and said, "Answer me, remember!" ”
"Remember, I will never let anyone or the demons find out that I am the spirit of heaven and earth, but you ......"
"I'm fine," Lan Yi waved his hand and suddenly smiled very shallowly, "If you're afraid of me being cold, why don't you hug me, so I won't be cold." ”
Song Qingyin: Yes, it won't be cold, eighty percent will freeze you to death.
Ah Xue was obedient and held him tightly in his arms. Lan Yi's face was faintly covered with a layer of frost, but he was still smiling, smiling very happily, thinking of a child who had received his favorite toy.
"Will it be better?"
"It's much better, I'll sleep for a while, you must leave before dawn." Lan Yi said, gently putting his hand on her shoulder, Song Qingyin clearly felt that he used the blood on his finger to draw a circular mark on the back of Ah Xue's shoulder, "Do you have a name?" ”
Ah Xue thought for a moment, "No, they all call me Bingluo." ”
In the end, Lan Yi said, "Then it's better to call it Ah Xue." ”
It's not so much that Lan Yi fell asleep slowly, but that he died slowly.
The sky was shining, and it looked like it was finally a sunny day outside, and the sun shining on the snow was particularly beautiful. Ah Xue kept the same motion and sat all night with Lan Yi in her arms. It wasn't until he was stabbed in the eye by the sun that he came back to his senses.
It's dawn.
This was the first morning after the battle between gods and demons ended with a tragic victory on the monk's side, Song Qingyin had the intention to urge Ah Xue to leave quickly, but she couldn't understand why what she did existed in Ah Xue's memory, she was more like a participating bystander, seeing everything with her own eyes but unable to change anything.
There was a rustling sound at the entrance of the cave, and Ah Xue subconsciously hugged the person in her arms tighter.
Soon the people outside found them in the cave, these people were wearing crane pattern Liuyun Dao robes, crowned with jade belts, and all carrying magic weapons. Song Qingyin has seen people dressed in this picture, these are the monks of Qingyun Mountain.
"The compass shows that the location of the newly entered heaven and earth spirit is near here?" The leader was an old man who looked quite kind, and he asked the disciple beside him slightly.
"Yes." The disciple replied, "Master, is that ......?" ”
The old man squinted and drew a magic circle, and Song Qingyin only felt that there was a piece of skin behind Ah Xue's shoulder that seemed to burn and hurt. Suo Xing he quickly stopped, and the old man shook his head, "No, this is a demon clan." ”
"Lock her up and take her back to the Demon Suppression Tower." Until she was not the heaven and earth spirit she was looking for, the old man suddenly lost interest in her, and casually waved his hand to let the disciples step forward.
Ah Xue had just entered the world, so how did she know how to resist the magic weapons cast by these high-level refiners. Song Qingyin, who was watching it, was in a hurry, and she couldn't wait to do it for her, wasn't it just a fight!
"Master! Come and take a look, it looks like a ...... Yes! As the disciple spoke, he was suddenly bitten by Ah Xue, and the piercing cold seeped into his body from the wound, and the blood coagulated in an instant, and he hurriedly sacrificed his magic weapon to block it.
From time to time, the whispers of the disciples of Qingyun Mountain came from time to time, "It's the Demon Clan Wind and Fire Elder!" ”
"It's actually hidden here......"
"He's alive!"
The old man looked slightly stunned, and wanted to step forward to investigate, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Ah Xue as if he didn't want to die. Some of the disciples wanted to step forward and pull her away, but they were all stopped by the old man.
"Don't be afraid, girl. We have a way to save him. ”
This old man is kind and kind-eyed, and the disciples behind him are also awe-inspiring one by one.
Song Qingyin: Phew, who would believe this kind of deception to a three-year-old child.
"Really?" Ah Xue raised her head and asked eagerly, although she didn't have any concept of death, she also knew that it was not a good thing.
Song Qingyin: It's over.
……
There was darkness in the Demon Suppression Tower, and Song Qingyin didn't know how long it had been, she only knew that if Lan Yi didn't wake up again, Ah Xue would be dead. Anyway, after a while, when Lan Yi woke up, Song Qingyin was bored counting Ah Xue's hair.
Ah Xue fell asleep quietly. Lan Yi stared at the pitch-black top of the tower for a long time before standing up suddenly, but there was an invisible barrier between him and Ah Xue, and he could feel Ah Xue's extremely weak breathing but he couldn't touch her anyway. Song Qingyin suddenly felt that he was a little pitiful.
"Ah Xue, Ah Xue!"
"Don't scream, she won't wake up." Song Qingyin felt that in addition to her and Ah Xue, another consciousness opened her mouth, and the more Ah Xue's own life passed, the more clearly Song Qingyin could feel its existence, and she had probably figured out what it was. Lan Yi said that Ah Xue was able to condense the soul because the Demon Lord's scattered soul was fused into the spirit of heaven and earth, so I am afraid that it is that ray of soul that is speaking now.
She will be pulled into this memory, and sure enough, it is still related to 'treasures'!
Lan Yi asked in a loud voice, "Who!" Who are you?! ”
"You don't care what you do, to be honest, I don't really want to help you at all, but this little monster also carries my power no matter what you say," the voice sighed, "The thing under your feet is called the Life and Death Array." As the name suggests, it takes one life to die to break the formation. Ah Xue wants you to live, so she chooses to join the battle. ”
"Trade her life for mine?"
"Trade her life for yours."
"You have time to suffer here, why don't you find a way to get her out of here, there is always a way to wake her up." If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't control his body to move, Song Qingyin would have wanted to pull Ah Xue's hair, what are you telling him to do with this? For this, how many people will he kill when he goes out?!
But she really didn't want to watch Ah Xue die like this.
didn't wait for her to think about anything more, as the world swirled, the feeling of being withdrawn from her consciousness again was not pleasant, and she finally fainted when Song Qingyin wanted to scold her mother in pain.
She snorted twice, rubbing her swollen forehead and opening her eyes.
The situation in front of them can be said to be extremely bad, the palace they were originally in has been completely destroyed by the fight, and the souls summoned by Lan Yi are rushing towards her. When Lu Qichuan saw that she was done, he no longer guarded her in front of her to clean up these souls, and instead concentrated on dealing with Lan Yi.
"Are you alright?" Song Qingyin responded, "It's all small miscellaneous here, it's more than enough for you to go." He glanced at Lan Yi and sneered, "The injury is a pig." ”
Song Qingyin: Oh!!
Although there are a large number of those dead souls, they are just ordinary people in their lifetime, even if they have a little spiritual power, they can't compete with the orthodox cultivators, and unlike the high-level fighting methods that shine brightly inside, they are like chopping melons and vegetables outside, and they have no technical content. Song Qingyin spread a circle of heavenly thunder talismans in front of him, encircling dozens of revenant souls and blasting them away.
Lan Yi's side is not at ease, and Lu Qichuan, who has no scruples, mobilizes his spiritual power to almost madness, but he has to be careful not to let those attacks fall on Ah Xue.
Lu Qichuan raised his hand, and a small puppet tied with straw that was cut off by the waist was thrown on the ground at random, that was the puppet he saw, a wisp of demonic energy escaped out, Ah Xue seemed to sense something, moved his eyes and slowly woke up. Song Qingyin squatted down curiously and poked with his finger.
Lu Qichuan lifted her up like a chicken, and shook her with disgust, as if he had touched something unclean, "Why do you touch everything, believe it or not, it jumps up and bites you?" ”
Song Qingyin: "I don't believe it." ”
Lu Qichuan: "Say it again? ”
Song Qingyin: "...... Wrong. ”
Over there, Lan Yi ignored the group of them, only picked up Ah Xue and asked her to sit up, and whispered softly in her ear: "Ah Xue, it's okay, can you wait for me here for a while?" ”
Ah Xue's reaction was beyond their expectations, she seemed to be very excited, clutching Lan Yi's sleeve tightly, I don't know if it was an illusion, Song Qingyin felt as if she had seen Ah Xue's fingers shattered. "Are you going to kill again? Tsubasasa don't do it, please! ”
Lan Yi carefully took her hand off her sleeve and said softly: "Good, I won't kill anyone this time, the person who came is very powerful, I can't beat him." ”
Ah Xue seemed to be relieved slightly, but then said, "Don't get hurt either!" ”
After appeasing Ah Xue, Lan Yi walked out from behind the screen. His eyes were firmly fixed on Song Qingyin, the news that person gave him was right, that thing was indeed on this little girl. If possible, he didn't actually want to kill her, a little girl who had just come out of the land of Qing Xiu, her soul was still clean, just like his Ah Xue. What's more, they still have such a big god pestle over there.
Song Qingyin was furious by him, his body trembled, he selectively lost his memory and had a grudge with Lu Qichuan, and hid behind him. Lu Qichuan rolled his eyes, but still blocked Lan Yi's gaze.
"Every time I go out, Ah Xue has to try her best to stop her, and then she starts playing requiem day and night." Lan Yi moved his wrist, "I don't want to see her go on like this, so I found a way, as long as I get that thing, it is said that it can give birth to human bones and make dead things condense their souls...... There is no need to use the soul to continue her life, Ah Xue can really come back to life. ”
Seeing him step forward, Lu Qichuan struck another blow, Lan Yi staggered back two steps, wiping the blood from the corner of his lips, "It seems that I failed again." You used to kill people without mercy, but why did you get here and still haven't killed me? ”
"Isn't this exactly what you want, you need to delay time, I'll give you time." Lu Qichuan waved his hand, unsheathed the small sword on his back, and floated in the air facing Lan Yi's front door.
"Now, answer me, how did you escape from Qingyun Mountain, and why did you know that thing was on her."
Lan Yi simply lay on his back on the ground and laughed twice, laughing and laughing and coughing up two mouthfuls of blood, "I thought you would be more curious about how a demon elder who survived the battle of gods and demons could be weak and could only make such a few moves with you, but you asked two nonsense words." ”
"Then let me ask you, Fengcheng has been a wind and rain town for ten years, have you ever received any news from Qingyun Mountain about my escape? It's not obvious. You humans always say that the demons are cruel and cunning, but when it comes to hypocrisy and betrayal, who can compare to you? ”
He breathed a sigh of relief, Ah Xue should have been sent to a safe place by now.
