Chapter 144: Returning from Success
readx; When the dust settled, Yan Chixia flew from a distance with a long sword, panting, and landed under the Skull Tower, and said to Han Lie: "Fortunately, you solved it quickly, otherwise I would have almost been hacked to death." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
As he spoke, he touched his left shoulder with his right hand, and there was a wound about five inches long and nearly two fingers wide, dripping with blood and making the scalp tingle.
Seeing this, Han Lie's mind moved, and the light on his body flew around, and he immediately put away his battle armor, and then took out a jade bottle from the space.
When the bottle was opened, a rich breath of life overflowed, emitting a little bit of crystal blue light.
Yan Chixia couldn't help but be taken aback, and asked in amazement, "What kind of treasure are you?" ”
Han Lie smiled, didn't speak, and then turned the mouth of the jade bottle upside down, dripped out two drops of liquid, and smeared it on Yan Chixia's wound, and he suddenly felt a tingling itch in his shoulder.
Yan Chixia turned her head to look and saw that her wound was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the two pieces of flesh were moving, slowly re-adhesion.
Feeling the aura coming from the wound, he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and meditated, exercising his exercises to absorb and heal the wound.
The wound healed ten times faster, and after a while, the huge wound that was tumbling with black blood and dripping with black blood just now looked very terrifying, and after emitting a chance of black smoke, it completely returned to normal.
Opening her eyes, Yan Chixia exhaled a bit of turbidity, stood up, looked at Han Lie, and said solemnly: "You must not easily look at this treasure in the future, otherwise it will cause chaos." ”
Han Lie shook his head and chuckled, and replied, "Brother Yan doesn't have to worry too much, if it weren't for Brother Yan's serious injury and being as stingy as me, how could it be like this." ”
This thing is naturally the spring water of the Fountain of Immortality, with a small amount of it, any wound can be easily treated, it really has the effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead, and it is not difficult to deal with Yan Chixia's trauma.
This realm is unpredictable. Han Lie's first was to avoid the loss of combat power, and the second was also to win over Yan Chixia, a master of cultivation, so he was not stingy and directly took the spiritual spring out.
Now it seems. The effect is good, Yan Chixia looked at him in the gaze, there was obviously a little less false estrangement, and a little more real intimacy.
Suddenly, Yan Chixia pinched her fingers and calculated. "The time is almost up, we must get out quickly, or it will be too late." ”
Han Lie nodded, raised his hand and motioned for him to wait for a moment, and then flew to the place where the Dryad landed on the side.
I saw that the dryad, which originally had the appearance of a human being, had now appeared in its original form, turning into a dry and crying branch, and a smell of rotting corpses wafted from its corpse, which smelled strange and unpleasant. It makes you want to vomit.
After Han Lie checked it for a while, after confirming that he was dead, he smelled this strange smell, and suddenly felt impatient, and was about to leave, when his heart suddenly moved, as if he felt something.
After a slight hesitation, Han Lie endured the stench that was going to drown out people's five senses, leaned over, and used his divine sense to sense it carefully.
A moment later. He put his fingers together and used his fingers as a sword, and immediately sent out a sword aura and slashed lightly at the corpse of the dryad.
Gollum! A sword fell. From the corpse of the dryad rolled out an oval-shaped stone, which was dark green and transparent, and shone with some strange brilliance.
Strange to say, when the stone fell out of the body of the dryad, it smelled incomparably stinking. It disappeared in an instant, and instead wafted out a fresh fragrance.
Yan Chixia walked over, looked at the dark green stone, and said with mixed surprise: "It's actually a thousand-year-old tree heart, it seems that this tree demon is dying quickly, tsk, Brother Han, your methods are really powerful." ”
Han Lieden knew that this was a treasure, so he asked, "Brother Yan, what is the effect of this thousand-year-old tree heart?" ”
Glancing around, Yan Chixia said, "Hurry up and go back, talk as you go." ”
With that, he flew away directly, Han Lie picked up the heart of the tree and glanced at the place where the old demon of the Black Mountain had dissipated.
After seeing that there was only a scattered skeleton and no residue left, he did not delay any longer and left, giving up the idea of cleaning the old demon's lair again.
…………
Lanruo Temple, with the first rays of morning light through the horizon, pierced the darkness, between heaven and earth, suddenly brightened.
Two hands and feet appeared in the air, and immediately after, two people came out, it was Han Lie and Yan Chixia.
After they appeared, the cold aura behind them suddenly disappeared, and the exit of the underworld was closed silently, dawn had arrived, and the ghost gate was closed.
Shaking the hem of her clothes and getting up from the ground, Yan Chixia turned her head, exhaled, and scolded with palpitations: "It's okay, I almost can't come back, bastard old demon of Montenegro, if you die, you will cause trouble." ”
When the two of them wanted to leave the underworld, there was a ghost wall blocking the way halfway, and Yan Chixia shot all the three magic arrows she carried with her, so that she could break through a passage.
As a result, he was stopped for a moment, and he almost couldn't catch the dawn, so he scolded so angrily.
Han Lie smiled and looked around nonchalantly, but saw that although the appearance of this Lanruo Temple had not changed, the demonic resentment floating around it had already been empty, and the demonic atmosphere had been cleared, and there was no longer the gloomy meaning before.
People stand in the Lanruo Temple, the original faint sense of depression is completely gone, under the morning light, this empty temple, but there is an inexplicable beauty.
Hahaha, Han Lie bowed his head and bowed to Yan Chixia, and said, "Brother Yan, thank you for your help and cleansing away the demon dust, which can really be described as a great merit." ”
Yan Chixia waved her hand and said with a smile: "I'm ashamed, I'm not as good as you, most of this power to eliminate demons is you." ”
Han Lie smiled again: "Okay, Brother Yan, we don't have to praise each other here, anyway, no one is an audience, since the sky is bright, why don't we rush to Guobei County to have a few more drinks to celebrate?" ”
Yan Chixia stroked her beard and said: "Yes, yes, this suggestion is very good, I have been busy all night, and I am already hungry and thirsty in my belly, and it is really empty." ”
The two walked hand in hand, stepped out of Lanruo Temple, and went to Guobei County with great interest.
On the way, Han Lie took out the thousand-year-old tree heart again, and asked Yan Chixia in detail, he didn't sell it, and told Han Lie everything he knew.
It turns out that this thing is indeed extraordinary, it is condensed by the essence of the tree demon, which is equivalent to the inner pill cultivated by the beast demon.
However, unlike the demon pill that can increase the effect of cultivation, this tree heart is a good material for refining magic weapons, according to Yan Chixia, with this tree heart as the main material, you can refine a high-grade magic weapon that can be called the best.
After learning that Yan Chixia would refine magic weapons by herself. Han Lie gave him this tree heart.
And Yan Chixia didn't make any excuses, she took it over happily, and promised to try her best to refine a worthy magic weapon for Han Lie.
Reciprocated the favor, and Han Lie also gave him a small bottle of Immortal Spring Water. The amount is not enough to make him immortal, but it can also increase his life span by 100 years as a token of gratitude.
It's not that Han Lie is reluctant, but the Fountain of Immortality is too precious, with Yan Chixia's character. He may not accept it if he sends too much, and besides, he must also avoid the situation of fighting Mien and Shengmiqiu.
After all, cultivators may disdain mundane wealth and wealth, but this kind of immortal thing will definitely not be despised by it, even if it is a heroic and righteous person like Yan Chixia, it is difficult to say that he will not be crooked because of this.
Han Lie had a good impression of Yan Chixia, and he didn't want to give him the opportunity to step on the wrong path, which was enough to express his heart. It doesn't arouse his suspicions, just right.
After all, it is normal for this kind of immortal to be scarce, if Han Lie said that he had a large pool to survive, he might scare Yan Chixia out of a myocardial infarction.
After eating enough wine and meat in Guobei County and having a good meal, Yan Chixia said that she would continue to return to Lanruo Temple to live in seclusion, while Han Lie was not interested in going to that broken place to suffer again, so he stayed in the county seat.
Outside the restaurant, the two said goodbye. Yan Chixia said: "Since you are not in a hurry to leave in a short time, then I will refine it slowly for you, and then you can come to Lanruo Temple to get it." ”
Han Lie nodded and replied, "Brother Yan's self-determination is." I'm not in a hurry, I'll stay in this Guobei County. ”
Suddenly, just as the two were talking, not far from the restaurant, a pedestrian fell to the ground and immediately foamed at the mouth. His face turned blue, he clutched his throat, and soon stopped moving.
The pedestrians around immediately panicked, vacated a large circle, and watched from the side, Yan Chixia and Han Lie glanced at each other, and immediately ran over and reached out to check.
After a while, he fought, and said to Han Lie with an ugly face, "He's dead. ”
He didn't deliberately whisper this, and the onlookers heard it very clearly, which immediately made everyone talk about it.
Soon, someone exclaimed: "I know him, isn't he a foot merchant in the next county, I saw him yesterday afternoon, and he just came back from the capital, will it be okay?" ”
Han Lie glanced at the passer-by who was speaking, stepped forward, looked at the corpse, and whispered to Yan Chixia, "Looking at this appearance, it looks like he died of an epidemic." ”
Looking at the corpse's blue and black face, Yan Chixia bowed her head in agreement, pondered for a moment and said, "Well......, you have to bury him quickly." ”
At this time, I don't know who reported to the official, two officials came over from outside the crowd, pushing the crowd into the circle.
After seeing the corpse, the two officials immediately panicked, raised their waist knives, and shouted, "How can there be dead people? Who killed someone? Is there a wanted criminal committing a crime here? ”
Attracted by his voice, the bounty hunters who were wandering around the city also surrounded him, shouting, "Where are the wanted criminals?" Where are the wanted! Get out of the way, don't delay me from earning a bounty! ”
The crowd couldn't help but be in chaos, and when Han Lie saw this, he sighed helplessly, and then coughed lightly.
The invisible sound swept out, except for Yan Chixia, everyone felt a thunderbolt suddenly sound in their ears, and they were immediately dizzy.
Han Lie shouted: "Is this how the public servant handles the case? How unreasonable! ”
The two dizzy officials saw Han Lie at this time, and then they were shocked, and hurriedly ran to the two of them, kowtowed, and said, "It turns out that Mr. Han is here, and the younger ones have seen Mr." ”
After controlling the county master and master, Han Lie couldn't help but show his face in front of the people of Guobei County, although they didn't know Han Lie's identity, but when they saw the respectful appearance of the county master and the master, how dare they despise it.
In less than a day, the entire Guobei County remembered Han Lie's appearance to death, these two officials were the last two in the county government, and they were also firmly admonished by the head.
Therefore, they recognized Han Lie, and they couldn't help but hurry up to salute.
Yan Chixia glanced at Han Lie strangely, not knowing when he was listed on the Guobei County Mansion, but she didn't ask too much.
Han Lie nodded expressionlessly, and said, "I'm afraid this deceased person was not murdered, you carry him back to the county office, let him do an autopsy, and then report to the county magistrate to judge the case, don't panic." ”
The two officials coughed awkwardly, looked at the chaotic scene around them, and were a little embarrassed, but immediately took orders loudly, pulled the two bounty hunters, and dispersed the people around them.
These bounty hunters were fierce in the face of the common people, but they did not dare to make mistakes in front of the officials, and they were extremely obedient but took on the job of carrying corpses.
After everyone dispersed, Han Lie looked up at the turbid sky, and faintly saw a demonic aura hovering in the northern sky, and Zhengse said, "Brother Yan, I don't think this matter is simple. ”
Yan Chixia also raised her head, opened her eyes, and also found this demonic aura, as if she had thought of something, and sighed: "Alas, the world will be chaotic, there will be demons, not only this Guobei County is uneasy, this Daqing Dynasty is ......."
He didn't finish his sentence, just shook his head, and then sighed heavily.
Of course, Han Lie knew why he sighed, and he was familiar with the plot of Yuan, and he knew very well that Yan Chixia was originally an official of the imperial court, and he was the famous arrest of the powerful side.
It is only because of the chaos of the government, the darkness of officialdom, and the unease of the world, that he went to his official position and escaped from the world.
Han Lie thought for a while, and said to Yan Chixia: "Brother Yan, that Shuxin will trouble you a lot, I think even this small county in Guobei is rare to have a little peace, and there will be a time to ask you again in the future." ”
Yan Chixia nodded vigorously, and after pondering for a while, she replied, "I'll go back first, refine your magic weapon, and then retreat for a period of time to practice a new set of sword techniques." ”
With that, he arched his hand towards Han Lie, turned around and walked away quickly, and after a few dodges, he disappeared into the crowd.
Watching his back disappear, Han Lie muttered, "I don't know what good treasure that centipede demon has, but for now, let's take a look at the beautiful female ghost harvested this time......
took out three mouthfuls of the golden pagoda, that is, the ash altar, the corners of Han Lie's mouth hooked up a strange smile, and soon slowly disappeared into the street. (To be continued.) )
