Chapter 69: The Road Ahead
For the era when martial artists were the mainstream, with the drop stone in the body, it can be said that there are a few more lives, and there is no need to worry about poisonous insects and poisons when walking in the wild in the future. How many people can not be tempted by such a treasure?
Ji Xiao showed a wry smile, she was now holding a drop of stones, just like a child walking on the street with a bunch of gold bricks, she simply didn't have the strength to protect such a treasure.
Strength?
Ji Xiao flipped her hand and put the drop stone into her pocket, and the words that Jing Feng had said when he gave her the emerald snake sounded in her mind, making poison, if there was the poison of the emerald snake or the poison of the purple gold cluster in her hand today, she wouldn't have to be so embarrassed, right?
At this moment, Ji Xiao was firm in his future path for the first time.
Of course, Gu Wu will not be left behind, but cultivation is a very long process, and she can't afford to wait at all now.
After making up her mind, Ji Xiao looked at the milky white rhizome at her feet again, thought about it, she urged the power of the origin to put her hand close to the ground, felt the direction of the powerful vitality, and finally identified the direction and ran towards the village.
After searching again, Ji Xiao finally locked on to a dry well on the side of the village, the plants around the village were clear at a glance, there was no strong vitality at all, and the only thing left was this dry well.
The moonlight in the sky is cold, but the bottom of the well is dark, before the change, Ji Xiao must not dare to go down, but after today's stimulation, Ji Xiao suddenly became much bolder, imagine that someone is threatening her and her relatives' lives at any time, can she still be as timid and afraid as before?
After finding a few branches, Ji Xiao used the most primitive method to make a fire, and then went down to the well with a torch. Because it is a dry well, the contents of the well are clear at a glance, messy gravel, shallow puddles, and a calf-high seedling grows against the wall in the puddle, and the seedling has begun to tilt because of the pressure of the wall.
That's it.
Feeling the vigorous vitality of the middle seedlings, Ji Xiao's eyes flashed with joy, but they were quickly replaced by horror.
It's just a seedling, how can its rhizome spread to the river? You know, it's nearly a kilometer from here to the river. Or was there once a mature plant here, but it was only cut down and then dug into a well?
If that's the case, it makes sense. The plant was cut down and dug into a well, destroying the plant's vitality, but it was already strong, and it took decades to recover and grow back into the seedling in front of you.
"Huh?" Ji Xiao suddenly found a drop of milky white juice hanging on the tip of one of the seedlings' leaves, and when he looked closely, a faint fragrance came to his nose, just smelling it, he felt refreshed.
Great stuff!
Ji Xiao looked overjoyed, but thinking of the losses he had suffered today, he became cautious again. Today she obviously noticed that something was wrong, Li Meiqian was not familiar with her at all, but she asked her to accompany her, but because she was a student at a school after all, she still went with her. If she had been more cautious today, the rest of the world would not have happened at all.
Thinking of this, the joy of discovering the treasure suddenly dissipated, Ji Xiao sank down, and urged the power of the origin to get close to the juice, but saw that the juice seemed to be attracted by some kind of strong attraction, and rushed into Ji Xiao's hand along the power of the origin, and then quickly arrived at the dantian along the meridians.
This change caught Ji Xiao off guard, and even the torch fell into the shallow puddle, and the "poof" went out for a while, and it was suddenly dark in front of him.
Ji Xiao didn't care about that, and hurriedly sank into his heart to look at his dantian, this is the place where the power of the origin is stored, if something goes wrong, it will be a big trouble.
What made Ji Xiao breathe a sigh of relief was that the juice didn't make much movement after entering the dantian, but slowly integrated into the power of the source, just like a small fish entering the sea, and the juice jumped and swam happily in the power of the source.
Ji Xiao didn't know how attractive her origin power was to these plants, if it was someone else today, at most she could only forcibly absorb the sap to improve her physique, but there would be no other effects.
It's just that the effect of the juice remains to be observed over time, and the effect will not be seen for a while.
Ji Xiao rummaged through the seedlings for a while, and found that there was not much juice before she came out of the well, and after thinking about it, she ran to the bank of the river to get a rhizome, and then found a room to live in at random.
It was silent, and Ji Xiao found that she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she didn't know if Jing Feng and they were gone, if they didn't leave, she would have to continue to hide in Tibet, let alone go out to find food.
On the other side, in the control room on the top floor of the mecha, Jing Feng had a gloomy face, and through the electronic eyes of the mecha, the entire village was in full view, but the night was hazy, and nothing could be found except for the vague dilapidated houses.
Tina sat next to him, bowed her head and said, "You've really decided?" "The voice is also low, and I can't hear the emotion.
Jing Feng clenched his fists, "You should know my character. ”
Tina raised her head suddenly, "But are you disregarding other people's lives and not giving up if you don't find Ji Xiao?" If we can't find it, will we stay here forever? ”
Jing Feng's eyes were like knives, and he shot at Tina, "Tina, you are a smart person, I don't believe that you have no suspicion at all about Ji Xiao's disappearance." He paused, and then said, "I warned you, if you dare to tell the events of that day, you will be the enemy of my Jing family, and you will let me treat what I said as a fart?" Ji Xiao had an accident because he saved me, do you want me to be ungrateful? ”
Jing Feng's tone was aggressive, and I didn't know whether I was afraid or felt that Jing Feng was reasonable, Tina's tone softened, "But we can't be sure whether she is dead or alive now, if she is destroyed by someone, it will be useless for us to continue to look for her!" ”
"She's alive." Jing Feng spoke without hesitation, his tone was very firm, "Liang Sijing has a very good relationship with Ji Xiao, if something really happens to Ji Xiao, Liang Sijing will not be in pain at all." ”
As soon as Liang Sijing, Guan Zijin and Li Meiqian came back today, they were very anxious to say that Ji Xiao was gone, he asked at the time, and he could see that several people had something to hide, but Liang Sijing, who had the best relationship with Ji Xiao, did not show the slightest pain, but struggled slightly. He believed in his eyes, Liang Sijing must have been forced to lie, but he was sure that Ji Xiao was still alive.
Tina sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, as you said, if Ji Xiao is still alive, why didn't she come back to you?" You said you owed her her life. ”
Jing Feng lowered his eyes, and said after a while: "Either she doesn't believe me, or she has been threatened and can't ask me for help." ”
"That's it." Tina spread her hands, "Whether it's because she doesn't believe you or has been threatened, she can't come out to see you, and if you keep looking for her, it will cause her trouble." You know, she doesn't even have a bottle of nutrients on her. "She kept hiding, and she couldn't even get a chance to come out and look for food.
