Chapter 53: Poisonous Mist
Cang Ran pointed to the scaly river in the moonlight and said, "Jump down." ”
Wei Xiao looked at him.
"Don't you dare to jump, or are you afraid that I will plot?" Cang Ran laughed, and suddenly a fierce man plunged into the river.
Wei Xiao immediately jumped down after him.
The river bubbled overhead.
But below the river, the current is quiet and slow.
Cang Ran took Wei Xiao with him, paddling the water all the way, swimming upstream against the current.
They passed by the spiritual stone bed at the bottom of the river, and the purple aura was still radiating through the aquatic plants, and from time to time a small spiritual fish with purple light swam around them.
They kept swimming silently, swimming, and I don't know how long it took.
Cang Ran suddenly glanced back at him at the bottom of the water, kicked the soles of his feet, and floated up to the water.
Wei Xiao also hurriedly followed and surfaced.
"It's here. Cangran said.
His voice sounded empty and echoed, as if it were underground.
Wei Xiao took the most look around, the place where they floated was a huge stone cave, except for a little glimmer on the water surface, the surrounding area was dark, the stones looked hideous, and the stone wall was overgrown with weeds.
"This ...... Isn't it the bottom of the spirit stone?" Wei Xiao said.
This place is no stranger to him, and this is his second visit.
Cang Ran nodded, stood up from the water, and walked to the shore, his figure gradually rising on the surface of the water: "The Lingshi Well is of the same origin as this Immortal River Well, and it is connected in the underground. Therefore, many of the spirit stones in the Spirit Stone Well have been washed into the river water downstream, forming a spirit stone bed - but it is rarely found. Therefore, everyone mistakenly thought that the spirit stone of the Spirit Stone Well had lost its aura, and the heavens were punishing the Spirit Stone Village. ”
His voice echoed through the hollow of the cave, sounding like he was telling a terrible story.
Wei Xiao's footsteps stopped, but he quickly followed him ashore.
"You're not afraid?" Cangran turned around and glanced at him, with an unpredictable smile in his eyes.
However, he quickly picked up on his own: "Oh yes, you are a god general, and you have seen a lot of top-level battles at the peak, so naturally you won't be afraid of this little story in the human world." ”
Wei Xiao's footsteps suddenly stopped, bent down, and picked up a small thing from the ground.
It was inconspicuous, but it happened to be on the way he was passing by, and it smacked the soles of his feet.
"What did you pick up?" asked Azome.
"Nothing, a bone. Wei Xiao replied.
He took the bone, which was only half the size of a chopstick, in his arms.
"Oh. As if he was not surprised, Cang Ran answered, and walked forward.
"You're walking in front so defenselessly, aren't you afraid that I'll suddenly slap you behind your back?" Wei Xiao looked at his back.
Cang Ran walked very relaxed, and he did look defenseless.
Cangran smiled.
"He's coming today, he's coming, and you can't escape. He suddenly stood still, turned around, looked at Wei Xiao, and looked at Wei Xiao with murderous eyes: "Wei Xiao, you are smart all your life, you probably wouldn't have thought that I lured you to this place because I had made an appointment with him before, and when he comes, with the strength of the two of us, he can kill you, right?"
"Who is 'he'?" Wei Xiao said, "Your last werewolf companion?"
"That's nature. Cang Ran smiled, and when he laughed, he still looked very good as usual, as if the sun was shining down: "'He' is more powerful than me, even if you can win me, you will definitely not be able to do three tricks under him." So, we might as well sit down and wait for him!"
The place where they stood, above their heads was the mouth of the Lingshi Well.
Wei Xiao looked up.
The wellhead was pitch black.
The purple aura that had risen at the edge of the wellhead in the past had also disappeared without a trace at this moment.
"Don't try to escape from the well," Cang Ran seemed to guess his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Since we have already calculated to kill you at the bottom of this well, we have sealed the mouth of the well with boulders and mana in advance, and you can't get out!"
"That's the case," Wei Xiao looked at him, "Why hasn't your werewolf companion come here at this moment?"
"He will come, he will come. An unpredictable smile appeared on Cang Ran's face again: "Anyway, you will die sooner or later, so why rush so much? Moreover, you must be very surprised when you see 'him', because," he paused, "'he' is a person you never expected." ”
"'Unexpected people'?" Wei Xiao repeated: "Are you talking about Huang Ding, Ah Zhenpo, Cabbage Head, or the village chief?"
Cangran shook his head, but smiled silently.
"Don't try to take my word for it. Anyway, I'm not going to let you know who he is until he arrives. ”
He took a few more steps.
Seeing that Wei Xiao didn't keep up, he turned around again: "Why don't you follow?" There is something you want to see the most. ”
"What do I want to see the most?" Wei Xiao pondered: "It's probably thousands of spirit stones." Although the spirit stones in these spirit stone villages can be regarded as the top grade in the human realm, compared to the heavenly realm spirit stones, they are only low-grade, and it takes about 10,000 of these spirit stones to synthesize a low-grade spirit stone in the heavenly realm, which is far from enough for me to restore the power of the gods. ”
"Are you kidding?" Cang Ran turned his head, a pair of gray eyes, and looked at him carefully, "Isn't she what you want to see the most?"
His body suddenly stepped aside, revealing a girl in a blue coarse cloth skirt behind him.
The girl's eyes were slightly closed, and she leaned against the wall, as if she were asleep.
Wei Xiao hurriedly stepped forward with an arrow step, probed under her nose, and still had a light and even breathing, and then she was relieved.
"White girl, white girl!" he called twice, but Bai Qianyu seemed to be asleep, no matter how he called and shook, he just didn't wake up.
"What are you doing when you arrested the white girl?" Wei Xiao turned around and screamed: "What's wrong with her now, why can't I wake her up no matter how I call?"
"Don't worry, Wei Tianshen," Cang Ran laughed, with a hint of smugness, "She's just fallen asleep temporarily after falling asleep from my 'sleepwalking technique'." ”
"'Sleepwalking'? What kind of demon method is that?" Wei Xiao stood up and stared at Cang Ran: "But she is sleeping like a dead person now, and she is not sleepwalking." ”
Cang Ran shook his head: "'Sleepwalking' is not to make people sleepwalk after falling asleep, but to make her soul wander around in her dreams all the time, as if sleepwalking. ”
Wei Xiao remembered that he had been trapped in a dream, if it weren't for the Phantom Clan Grand Magician Lan Yue who sent Bai Qianyu into his dream with mana and broke the dream, he was afraid that he would never be able to get out of the dream.
This "sleepwalking" can make people's souls wander around, and they don't know how to return home, but they are afraid that it is much more terrifying.
They drew their swords and pointed a sword at the side of Cangran's neck: "Quickly solve the 'sleepwalking technique'!"
Unexpectedly, Cang Ran only said lightly: "Solution, why should I solve it? I still want to keep the white girl, for great use!"
He slowly raised a finger and pushed it against the sword.
Wei Xiao hurriedly tightened his sword.
But at this time, a burst of white mist suddenly rose on the surface of the underground dark river, and there was no wind in the cave, but the white mist seemed to be sent by the wind, blowing from the surface of the river, enveloping him in it.
Wei Xiao only felt dizzy, the hand holding the sword suddenly lost its strength, Cang Ran just pushed it so lightly, he suddenly fell, and the iron sword fell from his hand.
"Tsk," Cang Ran approached and leaned over to look at him, "Look, you have been poisoned in the mist, and you can't even bear the gentle push of one of my fingers, what else can you order me to do?"
"Poisonous Mist ......" Wei Xiao stood up from the ground, leaned his body against the wall, and muttered.
When I first entered the werewolf village, the village was always covered with this white mist, which did not dissipate for years and did not melt in the sun.
"Yes, Poison Mist. Cang Ran said coldly: "This poisonous mist can sense people's spiritual power, and it is specially attached to the spiritual power, eroding people's spiritual energy, so it is harmless to mortals, but the higher the cultivation level, the more powerful the corrosive power is." ”
"But but," he leaned his head over Wei Xiao's ear and said in a low voice, "If you don't use the spiritual power in your body, you will feel much better." ”
"You ......!" Wei Xiaoqiang was about to struggle to stand up, but suddenly there was a sharp pain in his body, and he fell down again, and his back hit the wall hard.
Cangran laughed.
Wei Xiao clenched his fists and slowly let go.
No, he can't use spiritual power, if he dies, not only will Bai Qianyu not be saved, but the entire village, including the little girl Yu'er who disappeared in the village, will be killed.
He forced himself to breathe evenly, loosening the crumbling force in his body.
There was no longer any spiritual power fluctuation in the dantian.
Then, his body felt slowly relaxed, and his pale face slowly recovered.
"Well, that's right! Be obedient and obedient. Cang Ran said proudly, stretched out his right hand with white hair, and patted him on the right side of his face.
Wei Xiao wanted to dodge, but he didn't.
"Haha!" Cangran laughed and sat down cross-legged across from him, "Now that you are so well-behaved, for the sake of your obedience, I can be kind and tell you a story." ”
"Shut up!" Wei Xiao leaned against the wall and said weakly, "I don't want to listen." ”
"Now I suddenly have an interest in chatting, and I can't listen to it if you want to. Cang Ran looked proud, and pointed to the side: "This girl next to the white girl, I think you saw it when you fell into the well before, right?"
Wei Xiao raised his eyes slightly, and looked in the direction of his finger-
In the haze, he saw a beautiful girl in white clothes and black hair, exuding white light, at that moment, he almost seemed to see Bai Qianyu for the first time, at that time, she was also wearing a white dress, black hair fluttering, looking at him with a face full of adoration.
However, he knew that this girl who looked like Bai Qianyu in both shape and appearance was not her, but-
Xiu Yao.
