Chapter 12: Both Defeats and Wounds

The goal of the medicine gourd is very clear, that is, to knock down the ice coffin, and to smash it. What about the former sect leader of the Xiling Sect? In the eyes of the Bright Moon Holy Maiden, it is a treasure, but in the eyes of others, it is just a dead corpse! When he was alive, he called for wind and rain to kill people, and after he died, he had to occupy a high position, use a woman who was crazy about love to preserve his body, mobilize the people to work and lose money, and transport thousands of years of ice from the top of the snow-capped mountain, this level of treatment may not even be mixed with the king of a country.

Anyone who has been in the rivers and lakes for a few days, who doesn't know that the previous leader of the Xiling Sect killed too much, he single-handedly founded the Xiling Sect and cultivated countless killers to work for him. On the surface, it was to safeguard the interests of ordinary people and help the caravans of the Western Regions to resist the attacks of the Huns and horse bandits, but in fact, he has always done things according to his personal preferences.

His methods were extremely cruel, but his mind was shrewd enough, and in just ten years, the Xiling Sect seemed to be the most influential organization in the entire Western Regions. Cultists who don't know the truth flock to it, and they don't understand that those guys at the altar are simply a group of killers who kill people without blinking.

It has to be said that the life of the previous sect leader was successful, and despite his untimely death, the Xiling Sect that he left behind developed even better. Especially the Bright Moon Holy Maiden, the chief saintess he cultivated single-handedly, not only gave his heart to him, but also did not hesitate to give everything for the sake of the Xiling Sect.

The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon, a ruthless and indifferent woman, does not see a trace of motherhood in her, and to say that she is a mother is simply an insult to the holy word of mother. But she treated the former sect leader, but she dug out her heart and lungs, lest she not give enough, as long as he gave an order, not to mention her body and her heart, even if she wanted her to kill her own son, she would not hesitate at all.

Therefore, the best way to fight the Bright Moon Holy Maiden is to destroy his body and ruin her dreams. A dead man is a dead man, why should he want to dominate the living, the Bright Moon Holy Maiden lives in his fantasy that he can come back from the dead, which will only continue his cruel and ruthless style and hurt more people.

The medicine gourd exerted all his strength, and instantly rushed to the top of the ice coffin more than three meters high above his head, and before he had time to see clearly what the former sect leader in the ice coffin looked like, his feet stepped on the translucent coffin lid, and he shouted and swung his fist down.

"Don't ......" Seeing this, the Bright Moon Saintess lost her face, and desperately chased after it, throwing out many highly poisonous hidden weapons, and hated to tie the medicine gourd into a honeycomb.

But she didn't expect that the ability to use poison in the medicinal gourd was no less than that of a poisonous scorpion, maybe even more skilled than him, and the poison that was enough to kill people was used on him, just like being bitten by a mosquito, and the itch would be fine.

Seeing that the hidden weapon was ineffective against him, the Bright Moon Saintess raised her arm high and gave him a hand knife to the back of his neck. Seeing her movements from the reflection of the coffin lid, the medicine gourd tilted his body, dodged her deadly attack, and floated back to the ground.

The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon didn't care about chasing him, and looked at the ice coffin in panic, the lid of the coffin was hit hard, and there was a depression in the middle. With the depression as the center, the cracks spread out radially, only a few sounds of "crackling" and "crackling" were heard, and the half-foot-thick thousand-year-old ice coffin lid was actually broken into several pieces.

"No, don't ......" The Bright Moon Holy Maiden couldn't stop the ice coffin from continuing to break, she expected that the medicine gourd was not a simple character, but she didn't expect his skill to be so profound. How could this ice coffin made of thousand-year-old ice be shattered by an ordinary person's punch?

The medicine gourd jumped down and hurriedly pulled Shi Zhong and Ke Linji back: "Stand back, step back, that ice coffin is about to break." ”

Shi Zhong's eyes widened: "How is it possible?" Is that a thousand years of ice? Can it be broken by manpower? ”

"Don't brag about me, if I want you to go, you can leave quickly......" The medicine gourd didn't have time to explain more, so he dragged them away, and the fragments of the thousand-year-old ice fell frequently, and Kelinji raised his head and looked at the Bright Moon Holy Maiden who was at a loss. She was so anxious that she was about to cry, it turned out that she also had someone who cared so much.

Retreating to the narrow corridor, I only heard the sound of the ice cave shaking the sky, the medicine gourd panted breathlessly, pointed to the original entrance, and said: "Let's go, let's get out of here first, Mingyue's demon woman doesn't care about us for the time being, how far can you escape!" ”

Only then did Shizhong realize that something was wrong with the medicine gourd, and he smashed the ice coffin, using almost all his strength, and now he was trembling even when he spoke. Shi Zhong hurriedly walked out with the medicine gourd, looked back at Ke Linji from time to time, and yelled at him: "What are you looking at? Why don't you go quickly? ”

As if enchanted, Colinge didn't move his pestle in place, and he didn't move even if the ice flakes hit his face.

Shi Zhong frowned: "What's wrong with him?" Could it be that he is worried about the Bright Moon Holy Maiden? ”

"But isn't it, after all, blood is thicker than water, this stupid boy says that he hates her and hates her, but in fact, he still treats her as his mother." The medicine gourd coughed twice, and shouted at Colinji, "Don't worry, she'll be fine, let's go, I won't be able to leave if it's late." ”

Ke Linge turned a deaf ear, and even raised his feet and walked towards the ice cave, the medicine gourd shook his head helplessly: "Crazy, crazy, why did I forget that his mother is a big madman, and it is strange that the son she gave birth to can be normal!" Let's go, let's go, leave them alone, whether they die or live is left to fate! ”

Shi Zhongyuan wanted to pull back Kolingi, and the entire forbidden land was shaking, and there was a danger of burying them at any time. But the medicine gourd has exhausted his physical strength, and if he doesn't leave, it will be difficult for the medicine gourd to leave here alive.

Shizhong gritted his teeth, picked up the medicine gourd and ran out, until he ran to the stone ladder, before putting him down. The abundant sunlight shone into the woods, and Shi Zhong finally saw how embarrassed the medicine gourd was at this time, one of his arms seemed to be broken, hanging down loosely, and the flesh and blood of his right hand were blurred, and the white bones of the forest were faintly visible.

"Is it worth it? Is it just a corpse, is it worth it? "Shizhong can't bear to look at it, but now there is no condition to help him heal.

The medicine gourd lazily reclined on the stone stairs, and his uninjured left hand took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom, brought it to his mouth and bit off the cork, and sprinkled the gray-white powder on his right hand.

"What's not worth it, you see, aren't we escaping now? Okay, let's go, let's go down the mountain first! ”

"But......" Shi Zhong looked back at the forbidden land, "is he still in there?" We said we'd take him with us......"

Hearing him say this, Yao Hulu was so angry that his teeth itched, if it weren't for his weakness, he really wanted to wake up his elm head. Now it's hard to protect yourself, who cares about what you've said. Besides, who can blame that kid from Colinge if he has the opportunity not to run and voluntarily stay inside!

But Shizhong is a person who loves to drill the horns of the bull, and he has promised others things, no matter how dangerous it is, even if it is at the cost of his life, he must do it. The medicine gourd knew his temper, and he also knew that if he went down the mountain, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Yao Hulu struggled and made a difficult decision: "Okay, you go and find him back, provided you have to live." Otherwise, if you cause me to die here, I will haunt you as a ghost. ”

Shi Zhong understood the mind of the medicine gourd, smiled and assured him: "I will come back alive, and I will go to see the princess!" ”

Shizhong placed the medicine gourd in the hidden forest to ensure that he would not be discovered, and then returned to the forbidden place with confidence. When I went in, the ice cave had been sealed with scattered ice blocks, and I didn't know if the Bright Moon Saintess and Coringe had escaped. He walked a few steps unwillingly, pushed the cold ice cube, and sure enough, it didn't move, and the ice cave was indeed sealed.

"Kelinji ......" Shizhong could only sigh helplessly, if he and Yao Hulu hadn't found the real prince last night, maybe he wouldn't have the idea of escaping, if he didn't have this thought, he wouldn't have been sewn into the ice cave.

So, is this the outcome he wants? If he returns his life to his mother and dies with her, will he be able to attain eternal peace?

Since the person is no longer there, it is useless for the teacher to be sad, he has not forgotten the current situation, without him, the medicine gourd is afraid that he will also be buried!

Shizhong had no choice but to walk back, and before he had taken a few steps, he heard a loud rumbling sound behind him. Turning around, the icicles that sealed the entrance to the cave began to loosen and were about to burst out. Shizhong hurriedly squatted down, and with the protection of the rocks around him, he avoided the danger of icicles piercing his heart.

He watched as the closed hole was pierced, the hard and sharp ice flakes were like heavenly maidens scattering flowers, and the white ice mist dispersed. Shi Zhong saw the pale Bright Moon Holy Maiden crawl out of the hole, and then, she turned around and hugged a person and dragged him out with all her might.

The division center was overjoyed, thinking that that person was Ke Linji, and before he had time to think about it, he stepped forward to help her. The moment the Bright Moon Holy Maiden saw him, the chill in her eyes could almost kill him a hundred times, but her current situation was not much better than that of the medicine gourd, let alone killing a person, it was probably not easy to even step on an ant.

Shizhong ignored her, bent down and dragged the person's shoulder, glanced at it and couldn't help but exhale, this was not Collinji at all, but a strange man. He was cold, covered in a thin layer of frost, with well-defined features and three-dimensional features, and his long black hair hung down on his chest, sticking to his broad chest.

"He is ......" There was no need for the Bright Moon Holy Maiden to answer, and the teacher also guessed his identity, the well-preserved body of the thousand-year-old ice, who else would there be besides the former sect leader of the Xiling Sect.

The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon glared at him viciously, thinking that he was verbose, and the division couldn't rescue Kelinji, so he could only drag out the body of the previous sect leader first.

Shizhong placed him on the ground steadily, and the Bright Moon Holy Maiden gasped for breath, and then rushed forward and gazed at her beloved man affectionately.

"Collinge, Collinji, are you in there?" Shizhong lay down at the entrance of the cave and looked inside, calling his name. And the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon only cares about focusing on the person she loves, and she doesn't care whether her son is dead or alive.

"Yes, I'm not dead yet...... Collinge got up weakly, leaned into the hole and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I thought I was going to die this time, but I didn't expect to be alive......"

Shizhong stretched out his hand and grabbed him: "Don't talk yet, stand up, I'll pull you up." ”

Ke Linge grabbed his hand, jumped up with all his strength, leaned his upper body on Shi Zhong's body, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you wouldn't come back, such a good opportunity, you shouldn't come back to save me......"

With a little force, Shizhong dragged him out, looked back at the Bright Moon Holy Maiden with an obsessed face, and wanted to rely on her, but he was afraid that Kelinji would not be able to come out if he was exhausted.

"Let's go, let's go out first." Shizhong helped Ke Linji to walk out, Ke Linji turned back three times in one step, perhaps because he saw clearly that the Mingyue Holy Maiden only had the corpse in his heart, and he didn't have much nostalgia for his mother.

"Stop, you can't go." The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon opened her mouth coldly.

"If you don't leave, do you want to stay and die?" Shi Zhong turned around and said unceremoniously, "Mingyue Holy Maiden, you should know your current strength, I won't take advantage of others, please don't take an inch." ”

"Inch? Hmph, you nameless junior, dare to say such things to me! Okay, I remember you! But without my permission, you don't want to leave the altar! "Although the Bright Moon Holy Maiden has lost her skills, her domineering posture can still bluff people.

Shizhong was not frightened, and he didn't believe that she would let them go with a sudden kindness, so he pulled Collinji and continued to walk forward.

"Promise me one condition, I am willing to be guilty of the past." The Bright Moon Saintess said eagerly, with a hint of pleading in her tone.
