Chapter 66: The Umbilical Cord
Hearing Beigong's shout, Fang Shiliang and I immediately felt bad, but before we could react, an umbilical cord as thick as a child's arm came out of the soil directly, wrapped around Fang Shiliang's right leg, and began to pull towards the ruins of the statue in reverse.
There doesn't seem to be a connection between the umbilical cord and the Divine Son, at least in my opinion, they are completely separate individuals, the Umbilical Cord lives underground and the Divine Son is able to roam outside.
"Old Fang!!"
I didn't dare to hesitate, I ran up and grabbed Fang Shiliang's arm, I just wanted to pull him back.
But it turned out that I was stupid, the power of that umbilical cord was strangely great, like an irresistible mechanical force, maintaining its original speed, and effortlessly dragging me and Fang Shiliang together.
In this process, Fang Shiliang was not idle, and kept waving the copper sword in his hand, but no matter how desperately he slashed, the umbilical cord was still unscathed, maintaining a constant speed, dragging us unhurriedly.
"it's like rubber!" Fang Shiliang was also helpless, and scolded the street angrily: "What the hell is this dog thing?!" ”
"Umbilical cord." I gritted my teeth and said, put my hand into the collar, took out the law seal, and handed it directly to Fang Shiliang: "Take this and press it on it!" ”
After Fang Shiliang took the seal, he followed my prompt, like a seal, and pressed the seal on the umbilical cord with a snap.
At that moment, the umbilical cord wrapped around Fang Shiliang's leg loosened without warning, and before we could react, it directly retracted into the soil and never showed its head again.
Fang Shiliang sat paralyzed on the ground, looked at me for a while, and then looked at the ravines on the ground that were cut by the umbilical cord all the way, and his head was full of cold sweat.
"It's not easy....... Fang Shiliang said tremblingly, "This thing is determined to want our lives...... I thought I was going to hang up......."
As he spoke, Fang Shiliang pulled up his trouser legs, only to see that there were traces of corrosion on his calves.
There was no damage to his trousers, but there was a ring of scars on his skin, as if something had seeped through the clothes, and a layer of blisters had formed on them, and there were some green pus scattered on them.
"Damn, it hurts....... Fang Shiliang gritted his teeth and said, standing up tremblingly and about to walk back: "Old Shen, you ask clearly, if it is really the umbilical cord that dragged us away just now, it is not easy to break it." ”
"I know." I sighed.
Beigong seemed to have heard our conversation, and before we could ask questions, it took the first step to say that it was the umbilical cord! As long as you cut it off, you won't have much power!
At this time, Qiao Xian Gu couldn't stay idle, walked over with a smile, and stood a few meters away from us, her eyes full of provocation.
"I'm not going to let you succeed."
I didn't say a word, grabbed the piece of cloth in my pocket, gave Fang Shiliang a look, and motioned for him to take it easy and buy me some time.
Fang Shiliang was not stupid, nodded quietly, and then looked at the pretty fairy girl and said very elegantly.
"Fuck you."
Being scolded by Fang Shiliang like this, Qiao Xiangu also looked a little surprised, it is estimated that she could not have imagined that Fang Shiliang's dignified old men would scold her like a shrew scolding the street.
Obviously, Fang Shiliang didn't have the slightest self-awareness, he threw the bronze sword to the ground, and looked at Qiao Xiangu with a provocative face: "If you want to stop us, try it, ugly words are in front, I don't beat women, but it doesn't mean that I won't whip you, I accidentally killed you, don't blame me." ”
Hearing this, Qiao Xian Gu sneered twice, then you can try.
"Old Shen, what do you say?" Fang Shiliang glanced at me, his eyes were a little complicated, but I knew that he was asking me whether it was better to solve the pretty fairy girl first, or to hurry up and cut off the bullshit umbilical cord first.
I thought about it for a moment, and looked at the villain who was standing there without moving, like an idler.
"Hey!!"
Hearing my cold shout, Fang Shiliang and Qiao Xiangu were both frightened.
Seeing each other's reactions, the two of them also felt a little embarrassed, and looked at each other with disdain.
"Cowardice." Qiao Xian Gu scolded.
"Lao Tzu is better than you!" Fang Shiliang replied angrily, and then looked at me a little unhappily, as if he felt that he was embarrassed because of me: "Damn, be quiet....... Shouting chicken feathers, you shouting ........"
I ignored him and beckoned to the villain: "Come here!" ”
When the wicked man heard my greeting, he walked over to me without hesitation, and passed by the pretty fairy girl halfway, but he had no intention of attacking her.
"What the hell is this monster you called?" Qiao Xiangu was also looking at the evil man, and asked me very suspiciously: "I have seen the evil son of the Shen family, and I have seen it several times, but none of the evil sons are like you........"
"Guess what." Fang Shiliang taunted her with his mouth, but he didn't dare to relax his vigilance at all, clenched the mountain and river sword in his hand, and glanced at her erratically.
It wasn't the pretty fairy girl who made him nervous, but the ground beneath our feet.
The fact that the umbilical cord was only scared away or temporarily repelled does not mean that we have caused substantial damage to it and made it dare not show its head.
As long as the opportunity is right, or it can't stand loneliness, there will always be a time when it shows its head.
At this time, the villain stood beside me, and roared twice, as if to ask me if I had any orders.
"You have two missions."
I patted it on the arm, originally trying to pat it on the shoulder, but it turned out that he was not tall enough, and this turtle son was like a bamboo pole, thin and tall.......
The villain looked at me condescendingly, silent, waiting for my next order.
"First, save his life as much as possible." As I spoke, I pointed at Fang Shiliang, then turned my finger and pointed at the pretty fairy girl who was standing not far away: "Second, kill her." ”
Hearing my words, the Devil whimpered in response, unlike before, it felt less violent and ferocious, but as lifeless as yellow sand.
Think about it, when they appear, aren't they in a gritty state?
Like the sand-bodied, it exists in the yellow sand.
"Okay, with its help, I'll have an easier time dealing with this." Fang Shiliang said, spit and blinked vigorously, as if he was too tired, his eyes were full of bloodshots: "She has nothing to do now, we don't need to be afraid of her, it's easy to kill her." ”
What Fang Shiliang said is also what I think.
What is the biggest strength of the pretty fairy girl?
In addition to the secret methods of the old religion, Qiao Xiangu's ability is limited to the two methods of shaman and horse.
What these two methods are best at is nothing more than inviting immortals and gods.
Now that Zhao Xianhong is also hanging, the other immortals have also called Zhenjianghe back, and the mountains are full of our people, who else can she move?
If that umbilical cord doesn't get in the way and doesn't help the pretty fairy Gu deal with us, then there is no need to think about this matter, Fang Shiliang and the evil son join forces to kill her, it is definitely a sure thing.
"Be careful." Fang Shiliang said without looking back, his voice was very thin, his tone was full of worry, he should have guessed what I was going to do.
"Don't worry."
As I spoke, I looked down at the Dharma Seal in my palm, if it hadn't helped me just now, Fang Shiliang and I would have to be dragged to that ruin....... Could it be that this is where the umbilical cord hides? Is it the ontology?
Before I could figure it out, there was a sudden rustling sound on the body of the evil man.
The sound is not loud or harsh, like the flow of water, with an indescribable rhythm, giving people a particularly calm feeling.
When he turned his head, he saw that the arms of the Evil Son had disappeared, and not only that, but the rest of his body was also rapidly turning into white gravel.
"Holy shit, what do you mean?" Fang Shiliang looked at the villain for a moment, and asked me again: "I haven't started fighting yet, and now it's melting??" ”
I didn't say a word, and looked to the ground following the signs of the evil son melting.
The gravel formed by its body had now melted into the dirt, and there was no trace of it at all.
"It's not melting.......," I said, and my tone grew excited: "It's going to shoot!" ”
Without waiting for me to explain more to Fang Shiliang, I only heard a muffled bang, and the land around Qiao Xiangu exploded very abruptly, as if someone had planted explosives in the ground, and it exploded into dust in an instant.
But in the midst of the smoke, there was a lot of white gravel mixed in, and by the blue-white light in the sky, the gravel seemed to be transparent, like crystal.
Seeing this scene, Fang Shiliang also breathed a sigh of relief, holding the mountain and river sword in his hand, and rushed forward with a wild laugh.
"Come on! Little lady! Let the uncle educate you well! ”
