Chapter 13: The Red Veil Woman
"Are you telling the truth?"
Zhang Laoyi grasped Jun Xuan's hand, his eyes lit up, and his expression was very excited.
"I'm not entirely sure, but I can give it a try. ”
"Okay, it's good to have a chance, as long as you can save Ying'er, you will be a cow and a horse. ”
Zhang Lao's face was full of joy, he was over half a hundred years old, his son and daughter-in-law died in an accident, Ying'er is his only relative now, and he injected all his love into Ying'er.
Since Ying'er got sick, Zhang Lao's hair turned white overnight, and he looked for medical advice everywhere, but it didn't work, he was already dead, but when he learned that Jun Xuan had a way to cure Ying'er, hope was ignited again, although Jun Xuan was not completely sure, but he still let him see the light.
"Elder Zhang, do you remember if Ying'er was attacked or injured by a demon beast when she was six years old? Jun Xuan asked solemnly.
"When I was six years old...... Oh, by the way, Ying'er was bitten by a spider one night, I didn't care at the time, people who live in the mountains, it's normal to be bitten by these insects, give Ying'er some medicine, and it's over. Zhang Lao replied after a little thought.
"Spider! Do you remember what that spider looked like?"
"It's about the size of a sparrow, its body is light blue, it's covered in down, and by the way, its belly is red. ”
"Are you sure?"
"Well, sure, what's wrong. ”
Jun Xuan straightened up and said thoughtfully: "This spider is called an ice tarantula, it is a two-star demon beast, and Ying'er should have been hit by the cold poison of the ice tarantula." ”
"Ah, you're saying that spider is the culprit of Ying'er's disease?" Zhang Lao couldn't believe it until Jun Xuan nodded at him, and he didn't believe it, and he was annoyed in his heart.
"If I had paid attention to it, I probably wouldn't have done it, it's all my fault. ”
"Elder Zhang, don't blame yourself, ice tarantulas are very rare, it's normal that you don't pay attention to him, and even if you know it's an ice tarantula, you don't necessarily know how to treat it, it's not your fault. Jun Xuan comforted.
Jun Xuan's words eased Elder Zhang's remorse slightly, "Little brother Jun Xuan, if you need anything, just say it, I will do what I can do." ”
"I don't need you to do anything, but I have a question for Mr. Zhang. ”
Jun Xuan paused slightly, then continued.
"Elder Zhang, ice tarantulas like cold by nature and will only survive in cold places, and this ice tarantula appears in Zhang Village, which means that there is a cold place nearby, do you know where it is?"
"Oh, I know, less than five kilometers to the north of Zhangcun, there is a particularly large cold pool, the water of the pool is so cold and biting that it is said to be able to freeze a large living person in an instant, because it is too dangerous, that place has been painted as a forbidden place, and the villagers are not allowed to enter. ”
"Hantan, this place has such a cold pool?"
"I don't know about this, when our ancestors of Zhangcun fled here, they already had this cold pool. ”
"It's weird. ”
Jun Xuan looked at the sky in the distance, and his mind kept thinking.
Early the next morning, Jun Xuan set out to look for Fire Lingzhi, the vast Sunset Mountains, tens of thousands of kilometers longitudinal, trying to find Fire Lingzhi is no less than looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Evil Dragon, we are looking for Fire Lingzhi, shouldn't we go to the south where there is a volcano, why go north, isn't it only Hantan?"
Jun Xuan's idea was not a problem, he learned from the mouth of the evil dragon that the fire lingzhi was a fire attribute spiritual material, since it was a fire attribute, it should not grow in a place with a strong fire attribute, but the evil dragon let him keep going north, which made Jun Xuan a little puzzled.
"Haha, Jun boy, you don't understand this, your idea is not wrong, but you ignore a problem, that is, where the fire attribute is rich, although it is easier to grow fire attribute spiritual materials, but the level is often not too high, and rare spiritual materials like fire Lingzhi will definitely not be in that kind of place. The dragon explained.
"It shouldn't have grown in a cold pool. ”
"Hmph, it's really long hair. ”
You're short-sighted, no, you're long-haired. Jun Xuan scolded angrily in his heart.
"In nature, the balance of yin and yang is the eternal criterion, that is to say, there is yin and yang, and there is yang and yin, and the two balance each other, just like a crater often has a glacial lake, so in places where the power of yin and cold is extremely strong, the power of the sun is often extremely strong, even stronger than those places with strong fire attributes, and fire lingzhi likes such a place, so I think that cold pool is the most likely place to have fire lingzhi. ”
The evil dragon's explanation made Jun Xuan suddenly realize, the evil dragon was right, he still had too little knowledge, but it didn't matter, sooner or later, one day Jun Xuan would travel all over the Xuanshen Continent and know more things.
"Is this Hantan? It's cold. ”
Before he arrived at the cold pool, Jun Xuan felt a cold wind blowing on his face, which made him swish and hurriedly run the spirit yuan to resist the cold.
"Come closer, I feel like there's something in the cold pool."
Jun Xuan nodded, and while running the spirit yuan to resist the cold, he approached the edge of the cold pool, and when he reached the shore of the cold pool, Jun Xuan's eyebrows and hair were covered with a thick layer of frost, and Jun Xuan was also shivering with cold.
"Evil, evil dragon, here, what's here. ”
The dragon didn't answer right away, as if sensing something, and didn't speak after a while.
"Although this cold pool is covered by the power of yin and cold, you can still feel a trace of the power of the sun from the bottom of the pool, it seems that you should have come to the right place. ”
The evil dragon's words made Jun Xuan excited, and the spirit yuan worked quickly, forming a milky white barrier on the surface of his body.
"What are you going to do?"
"Jump down and take a look, or I don't know if there is a fire reishi. Jun Xuan replied.
"You are crazy, the intensity of the cold power in this cold pool is far beyond the range you can bear, even the high-level spirit martial realm does not dare to jump directly, if you jump, you may be frozen into pieces in an instant. ”
"Is it so terrible?" Jun Xuan was startled, and secretly said in his heart that he was lucky not to jump down.
"Of course, and the terrifying thing about this cold pool is not only the strong power of yin and cold, but also ......"
The dragon stopped suddenly, as if sensing something.
"Someone's coming, find a place to hide. ”
"Oh. ”
After being reminded by the evil dragon, Jun Xuan did not hesitate, and jumped onto a big tree not far from Hantan with one arrow step, lowered his body, held his breath, and operated the Heaven and Earth Spirit Martial Technique, trying to hide his breath.
It's been almost half a month in this Sunset Mountain Range, Jun Xuan's cultivation has been upgraded to the three-star primary level of the Lingwu Realm, and he can break through again in a few days, these days, Jun Xuan has also discovered another great use of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Martial Technique, that is, it can converge the breath, in the case of running the Heaven and Earth Spirit Martial Technique, even the high level of the Spirit Martial Realm may not be able to feel him, which is very important to Jun Xuan.
After a while, a red light swept from a distance, and did not stop until the edge of the cold pool, and when I looked closely, a woman in red clothes and a red veil was standing on the edge of the cold pool, looking around with big smart eyes, as if she was looking at something.
Jun Xuan was motionless, even the speed of his heart began to slow down, of course he knew that this woman in red was there to check if there was anyone around.
After a while, the woman in red seemed to be sure that there was no one around, and her slender right hand gently swiped the middle of her left hand, and a light blue bead the size of an egg instantly appeared in her hand.
"Space Ring! She actually has a Space Ring. ”
Jun Xuan was shocked in his heart, the space ring is a kind of space spirit treasure, the interior is its own space, it is often used to carry and store items, ordinary people can't afford to use it at all, even the lowest level of the space ring costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins, so Jun Xuan believes that the identity of this woman in red must not be simple.
The woman in red held the light blue beads tightly in her hand, and a faint blue light film was formed around the woman, "poof", the woman's feet were forced, and she plunged directly into the cold pool, and the cold pool water rippled for a long time.
"This woman jumped in directly, isn't this looking for death?" Jun Xuan said in surprise, and the evil dragon seemed unimpressed.
"Looking for death, that woman has been prepared for a long time, have you seen the light blue bead in her hand? It should be a spiritual treasure, which can temporarily isolate the cold power of the cold pool. ”
Jun Xuan thought about it, the Qiankun ring, the spiritual treasure that can isolate the power of yin and cold, which one is not a priceless treasure, but it appeared on the woman in red, Jun Xuan was even more curious about the identity of that woman.
"Oh, didn't she take all the things in the cold pool?" Jun Xuan patted his head, and couldn't help but be depressed, he came to the cold pool just to find the fire lingzhi, if there is really a fire lingzhi under this cold pool, it will definitely be obtained by the woman, then this matter will not be easy to do.
"Hehe, don't worry, according to the scale of this cold pool, the things at the bottom of the cold pool are definitely not ordinary, in this world, but there will be guardian things around all the treasures, so it is not so easy for her to get the things at the bottom of the pool. The dragon replied with a smile.
"Something to be guarded?"
As soon as Jun Xuan's words fell, the surface of the pool, which was originally only a little ripple, began to roll up waves, as if a stick was stirring in the pool water, and soon the pool water began to churn, and the places splashed by the pool water became ice.
"What's going on?" Jun Xuan said in shock.
"It should be that woman and the guardian thing have handed over, just so that we can do a mountain watch tiger fight, and finally the snipe and clam fight, and our fishermen benefit. ”
Jun Xuan's eyelids rolled, and he despised the evil dragon a little in his heart, but he had to say that this was indeed the best way.
At this moment, a water dragon rolled up in the pool, and a figure shot out of the water, slammed into the ground, and rowed far away before stopping.
The woman's right hand was covered in front of her chest, panting heavily, due to the previous battle, the red veil that originally covered the woman's face had long since disappeared, revealing a peerless face that captivated the country and the city.
