Chapter 18: The Elixir
Stygian Flame Mountain, one of the most terrifying places in the Tianxing Continent, legend has it that there is an elixir left by immortals in the Stygian Flame Mountain, if you eat the skill, it will be enhanced dozens of times, all the martial arts people have been going to the Stygian Flame Mountain, but none of them have come back, it is said that there are countless souls on the Stygian Flame Mountain, specializing in devouring the human beings on the mountain, the bones of the human beings on the Stygian Flame Mountain have been piled up to the bottom of the mountain, the crows on the mountain are endless, and the dark clouds are shrouded, like a hell on earth.
"Go to the Stygian Flame Mountain to find the elixir."
Ling Yurou's eyes widened: "Is there really an elixir on the Stygian Flame Mountain?" ”
Ah Yun's delicate eyebrows raised slightly: "Strictly speaking, it is not an elixir, but a meteorite in the sky, how long the Tianxing Continent exists, how long it is, this meteorite absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, if it can extract the energy inside and integrate it with itself, then the power will be multiplied in an instant." ”
"Oh...... I see, but the Stygian Flame Mountain is full of killing machines, and many martial arts people are gone, so the two of us go like this, isn't it too dangerous? ”
Ah Yun smiled faintly: "Isn't that the Cold Moon Hall also a dangerous place, Rou'er also broke through safely, Rou'er is my lucky star, with Rou'er, Ah Yun is not afraid." ”
Ling Yurou twitched the corners of her eyebrows, what kind of logic is this, she just walked into the Cold Moon Hall by mistake.
The two found a hidden place to rest for a good night, and before dawn the next day, Ling Yurou was woken up by Ah Yun, rubbed her eyes and reluctantly got up, simply washed her face with water, and went down to Jiuding Mountain.
Stygian Flame Mountain is in Wuji China, only two days away from Jiuding Mountain, I heard that it is to go to Stygian Flame Mountain, not many coachmen are willing to go, for fear of getting bad luck, after seeing the gold in Ah Yun's hand, they are all scrambling to do this business, Ah Yun chose an honest young man, and the three of them went straight to Stygian Flame Mountain.
The road is all big roads, there are no bumps in the vehicle, the young man's driving skills are fast and steady, Ling Yurou looked at the scenery outside the window and retreated quickly, and after a while, she was tired and rolled straight over, and fell asleep in a daze.
Half-asleep and half-awake, I felt a warm breath surrounding me, the softness and hardness were moderately comfortable, and the corners of my mouth brought a smile to the corner of my mouth, and leaned forward.
When she woke up, she saw that it was dusk at sunset, and she was leaning on Ah Yun's chest, and with that spring breeze-like smile, Ling Yurou couldn't help but blush.
The carriage stopped at a teahouse, and as soon as a few people sat down, Ah Yun ordered more than a dozen dishes, and set one full of them, so greedy that Ling Yurou's mouth watered, it seemed that this evil monarch was very rich.
Since people have money, she doesn't have to help others save it, so she picked up chopsticks and ate them like a whirlwind.
There is another one who is as stormy as her, but it is not a human being, it is Xiao Jiu, because of her special body shape, so Ling Yurou wrapped her body in a white cloth, only revealing her claws and head, and at a glance it was a fat cat.
One person and one cat ate babbling and feasting, which made the young man driving dumbfounded, Ah Yun looked indifferent, smiled and put the dishes into the bowl of one person and one pet, but he ate very little.
After resting in the inn for the night, the group hit the road again.
"Guest officer, you must be distinguished guests from Jiuding Mountain, you two have an extraordinary bearing, why do you want to go to Stygian Flame Mountain?" Soon after the carriage had gone, the young man spoke.
Ah Yun didn't answer, and Ling Yurou didn't speak.
Seeing that the people in the car didn't speak, the young man smacked his mouth and changed: "Guest officer, have you ever heard that the princess of the Western Taiguo met an assassin in this martial arts conference?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Ling Yurou raised her eyebrows and said deliberately: "Oh, there is such a thing? ”
The young man was very surprised and said: "It turns out that the guest officer doesn't know, the little one thinks that you two are also peerless masters who went up to participate in the martial arts conference, and the little one is too talkative." ”
"What happened to this little brother, Princess Xitai? Can you tell us about it? ”
"Actually, it's not a secret, there is a lot of gossip about our business, and I basically know that Princess Xitai met an assassin in the Junda faction a few nights ago, and her life was saved, but she was seriously injured, and all the imperial doctors of Wuji Country went to Jiuding Mountain."
Ling Yurou glanced at Ah Yun and said tentatively, "How serious is that injury?" Can it be cured? ”
"The injury can be cured, but I heard that the sequelae are very large, according to the grapevine, Princess Xitai will not be able to practice martial arts in the future, and it will be difficult to see people again, hey...... What a princess, who hated it so much. The young man shook his head and sighed.
Can't practice martial arts? It's true that she ruined Ouyang Yaoji's appearance, but why did she say that Ouyang Yaoji couldn't practice martial arts?
That night, Ah Yun helped her block a blow, and she left first, it was Ah Yun......
looked at Ah Yun suspiciously, and Ah Yun winked at her mischievously: "Are you tired?" If you're tired, lie down on me and rest, it's still a few hours away from the Stygian Flame Mountain. ”
Ling Yurou gave him a big look and answered what he asked.
The carriage was rushing rapidly, getting closer and closer to the Stygian Flame Mountain, the temperature was getting higher and higher, it was early autumn, autumn was high and cool, but it became summer when I came here, it was so hot that Ling Yurou's forehead was slightly sweaty, and the wrapped Xiao Jiu was even more miserable, there was a lot of hair, and she was wrapped in a white cloth, so hot that she stuck out her tongue, and finally couldn't help but tear the white cloth into strips.
One person and one pet are in full swing, but Ah Yun is leisurely and complacent as if nothing has happened, without a drop of sweat.
The rise and fall of temperature has no effect on Ah Yun?!
Holding Ah Yun's hand, it was warm and cold, without any feeling of heat, Ling Yurou's face was incredulous.
"Aren't you hot?" Knowing the result, she still asked without giving up.
A cloud of cunning flashed in his eyes, and said lightly: "If Rou'er is hot, take off your clothes." ”
Undress?! Looking down at yourself who only has a single coat, if it is swollen, it will be a belly pocket!
Subconsciously protecting her chest with her hands, Ling Yurou shook her head vigorously.
"Two guest officers, there is Stygian Flame Mountain in front, the guest officer is noble, if you regret it, it's still too late."
The young man reminded him, Ling Yurou probed out of the window, and saw a big mountain standing in the distance, the mountain was full of dark clouds, the mountain was black and red, surrounded by black mist, and a big skeleton pattern could be faintly seen from the top of the mountain, and a hot wind blew, mixed with a fishy smell and rotten atmosphere, which made people sick.
Ling Yurou swallowed her saliva and said that she was not afraid that it was fake, the power of the legend should not be underestimated, if this mountain was not evil, so many people would not die.
Despite the hot temperature, the trees are lush and green. Finally with some life.
