Chapter Seventy-Eight
Xiao Si followed the path he had come, and soon returned to the starting point, climbing along the rope to the ground. There was not only one person who caught his eye, but also a middle-aged man with short hair, who looked like a monk who had just returned to the world. The two sat cross-legged by the ashes of the fire.
After Xiao Si appeared, the two of them also looked at Xiao Si, full of joy, while the short-haired monk stared. In this gaze, Xiao Si felt the killing aura envelop him. Xiao Si's heart was tight, the injuries on his body were not yet healed, if he moved, he would definitely not be the opponent of this monk, and then Dali and Chen Lu would be in danger.
Xiao Si had a plan in his heart, knowing that he couldn't let the monk know that he was seriously injured, so Xiao Si looked at him, and returned to his momentum, and the two intersected in the air, and no sparks were generated, but dissolved into nothing like spring snow. The skill of the short-haired monk is still above Xiao Si's expectations, I am afraid that he is not as good as this person in his heyday, and such a master must have a plan here.
The short-haired monk stood up and asked Xiao Si, "What about the one in the Valley of Broken Souls?" ”
Xiao Si frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Which one?" ”
The short-haired monk said softly with a slight look of reminiscence, "Boss Ke." ”
Xiao Si carefully looked at the short-haired monk in front of him, and there was a string of white bone prayer beads hanging around the neck of the short-haired monk, and he said, "The white bone witch envoy killed the monk." ”
The short-haired monk was noncommittal about this name on weekdays, but at this time and now, he seemed to be a little annoyed and guilty about this name, but he couldn't refute it, and he lowered his head slightly.
Xiao Si didn't know these secrets, what he said was just according to what Ke Lao said. At this moment, there must be a big secret in this. But Ke Lao didn't say it, it must also have his intentions. Those old friends in the past, for some reason, Ke Lao was reluctant to mention his acquaintance with them.
"Is that what he said about me?"
"What he? The white bone witch envoy kills the monk, and he doesn't know which one on the rivers and lakes. ”
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. I think the purpose of my visit today is very clear. After saying this, all the emotions on the face of the killing monk dissipated and returned to his original appearance.
Xiao Si was secretly frightened in his heart, this is a real killer, he can hide his inner emotions anytime and anywhere, and replace them with calm thinking and cold emotions. Look at anything with reason, like a machine, with only code, no emotion.
But Xiao Si still pretended to be confused, and said suspiciously: "I don't know what the witch killer is doing here?" ”
If the killing monk didn't listen, he asked, "Where did you get the location of this tomb?" ”
"Stumbled upon an ancient map, which marked this tomb. Since ancient times, one bucket has been poured into one bucket, and one life is not worried. With such a big net profit, who wouldn't be tempted? I came here with a lot of power. ”
"You can take all the treasures in the tomb, and I only need one of them."
"Going down to the tomb and fighting has always been a part of the seekers, and if the witch killer is interested, he can go to the tomb with me. And what is found in the tomb shall be a share of the witch slayer. However, I don't need to say much about the danger in the tomb, and everything needs to be taken care of by killing witches. ”
"All I want is a pendant."
Xiao Si had some doubts in his heart, but he still pretended not to know, and said, "Pendant? I have not yet found a place in the tomb where the treasure is kept, and I have not seen a penny, but I have almost lost my life. ”
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, but when it comes to pendants, I've actually seen one hanging around the neck of a golden fox."
"Golden Retriever Fox?" The killing monk pondered for a moment, and then asked again, "What are the characteristics of the golden fox?" ”
"It's strange to say that this fox has a thick golden hair, but it has no tail. And the strangest thing is that the eyes of the golden fox are like a pair of human eyes in the dark night, and I don't know if my eyes are dazzling. ”
"You read that right, what about the fox?"
"The golden fox has gone nowhere, I first saw it in the cabin, and then I tried to catch it. Later, somehow, it released a huge strange snake. The strange snake overturned the ship, and there was an ocean at the bottom of the boat. We hid in a cave, where the giant snake was bitten to death by something, and the golden fox was nowhere to be found, presumably falling into the water. ”
Xiao Si's false and real words, as soon as he said it, even he was a little convinced. He didn't know how much the killing monk knew about this matter, he could only mix the true and the false, and he couldn't just say that the pendant was on him. Although I don't know what the pendant is for, all the forces are obviously here for this pendant, and it must have its unknown effect.
After saying this, there is no way to distinguish the true from the false, not to mention that he doesn't need to distinguish it, he just needs to do this. Well? The killing monk frowned, and directly launched an offensive against Xiao Si, Xiao Si had already prepared, but he still couldn't keep up with the speed of killing the monk.
With just one move, the killing monk subdued Xiao Si, and the bone blade in his hand was gently placed on Xiao Si's neck. Xiao Si stopped in place, no longer moving, he already knew that he was not the opponent to kill the monk, but he didn't expect that he would lose with just one move, and he would lose so completely.
The killing monk went back and forth on Xiao Si's body, and took out all the items such as the section sword and the coiled dragon silk and put them on the ground on the side. He seemed to be very familiar with the place where Xiao Si's belongings were placed, and soon the miscellaneous items on Xiao Si's body were put aside, but he didn't turn over the pendant.
The killing monk touched his chin with his idle left hand, and then punched Xiao Si's abdomen hard, and then quickly rushed to Xiao Si's back, using his elbow to send out a force beyond his fist. This was repeated several times, back and forth, until a foreign object was spit out of Xiao Si's mouth.
Xiao Si didn't feel the slightest pain, but he felt like he was about to vomit out all his lungs, and his heart seemed to jump to his throat. In the end, something strange came out of his mouth, mixed with the blood, and it was impossible to distinguish the specific shape.
However, if you look closely, you can see that the contents of the blood stain are still gently wriggling. The killing monk frowned and picked up the things on the ground, but it was Xiao Si's natal Gu worm thousand-year-old insect king. The insect king struggled in the hands of the killing monk, but he didn't have any strength, as if he had been injured by the killing monk. However, the monk was not worried that the pendant would be destroyed, and the pendant should be a very hard object.
The killing monk used the bone blade in his hand to pick open the abdomen of the Millennium Insect King, and used the bone blade to test back and forth, but did not find anything unusual. Then he threw the Millennium Insect King to Xiao Si, and the Insect King was languishing in Xiao Si's palm, looking like he was greatly injured. But in fact, there is no fatal injury, and it can be recovered by nourishing it in Xiao Si's body.
However, Xiao Si is also seriously injured at the moment, and there is not enough vitality to provide the Millennium Insect King, and it seems that the Millennium Insect King needs to maintain his vitality for a while.
