Chapter 12 The Swordsman — Murong
Liu Qingqing walked on the dark and deep path, the cluttered branches and leaves under her feet made a creaking sound, and the fresh air mixed with the smell of rotten earth after the rain made her can't help but take a few more breaths.
Along the way, there are some dilapidated houses, built before World War III, the cracked wall skin peeling off to reveal the wet red brick surface inside, the gray-white powdery nitrate looks very dark and damp one after another, plus the large moss, you know that it has been uninhabited for a long time. In the cracks of the walls, there were occasionally a few familiar but unnamed grasses swaying in the air with rain, and some wild cats poked their heads out of the doors and windows of the house, their round eyes glowing with cold light, which made people feel creepy.
In the first half of the trail, you can still see the gloomy sky, but further on, you will enter the forest, and the towering trees have lost their original vitality in the night, and they look like dolls, which makes people palpitate. The branches and leaves in the sky obscured Liu Qingqing's vision, and the reason for the cloudy sky was that at this moment, the road ahead was already in the dark, and it was an ordinary person, let alone continue walking, it would be good if he didn't run back immediately.
Liu Qingqing turned in front of a wooden house and entered an alley, walking up the rugged stone path up the hill until she was stopped by a huge paulownia tree.
Just look at the body of this paulownia tree to know that the age is not short, the diameter is afraid to be more than four meters, I don't know why it fell, some of the roots of the tree have been broken, some are still buried deep in the ground, due to gravity and photosynthesis, the branches at the crown of the tree are growing upward, and the individual main branches are thicker than ordinary plane trees. The trunk of the tree was lying flat, nearly a quarter of it was buried in the dirt, and the ground was sewn tightly together by moss and weeds, and the purple-brown earth was dotted out of the turquoise like patches of ringworm.
Liu Qingqing looked up, jumped over, stretched out his right hand to wrap around a thick branch, and landed on the trunk of the tree, normal people don't have a tool, I'm afraid it's not easy to come up, it's undoubtedly a fool's dream to imagine such an understatement, the body of the ability has a certain degree of strengthening, not just the ability.
Pushing aside the dense leaves, I don't know where Liu Qingqing pressed, a big hole was opened in the canopy, she jumped down directly, disappeared into the canopy, and the hole also disappeared.
Inside, there is a world of difference from the desolation outside, countless root-like objects hanging in the air and shining with colorful crystalline light, like a galaxy in this small dim area. A smooth rock glides up from the ground, and two tiny grooves flow a thin stream of water that merges directly below it into a pool of clear water. Looking along the long and narrow space, it is getting brighter and brighter, cluttered workbenches, neat bookshelves, simple mecha tables, holographic full-sense imagers, and flying cars······· Although it seems a little crowded, it does not prevent people from living and working in it.
"How's it going?"
Just when Liu Qingqing landed, a green voice came.
Liu Qingqing sat directly on the sofa and said, "The little gold lord can indeed take out S-level weapons, and we should be able to get what you want if we rob Bai Ting." But the little gold lord's ability is weird, and Edward is involved with him, so let's try not to clash with them head-on, and get something to fix your right arm!"
Following Liu Qingqing's gaze, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy sat on the opposite side of the sofa, his left hand wrapped in a dark red strip of cloth, and the strange patterns on his fingers extended to his slender fingertips, faintly emitting a black light, holding a bronze sword about one meter long and full of gluttonous patterns. The half-length black hair was tied behind his head with a red rope, a pair of black eyes like ink stones flashed with shiny, and a smile on his slightly baby-fat face, indescribably green and delicate. The fly in the ointment is that his right sleeve is empty and looks very uneven.
"Hey, by the way, the Eagle Hall has been destroyed, but it has nothing to do with me. ”
Liu Qingqing, who just wanted to say that he was not polite, stood up directly when he heard it: "Whose hand is that?"
"There is Guangwu appearing, it should be the Kong family. ”
"Kong Qing?"
The young man who was still smiling also showed a jealous look when he heard this name, and said slowly: "No, if Kong Qing makes a move, with Dante (Dante) and his ruthless fighting style, how can I retreat with my whole body?" ”
When Liu Qingqing heard this, a smile appeared on her cold face, "How is Bai Ting?"
"Scared, but nothing, already sleeping in the basement. ”
Liu Qingqing sat back on the sofa, took out Tianxun and saw many images and countless text messages, turned off the phone directly and threw it aside, the Qi family couldn't contact her, and she was already in a hurry.
"The Kong family is also for Bai Ting?"
The young man nodded, "But let me be one step ahead, hey, I'm afraid they're embarrassed!" The tone was very playful, and he didn't seem to take the Kong family seriously.
Liu Qingqing's face was full of doubts, "They also want that batch of armed goods, but there is no need to make a move in advance, it's not better to watch the fire from the other side, and besides, what good will it do them to destroy the Eagle Hall and weaken the Qi and Li families?"
"Benefits? The young man turned on the hologram on the table, pointed his sword at a forest, and said, "The patrol mechanical beasts in Tianyu Mountain have tripled, and all the Jialing garrisons have been transferred to the border between Jialing and the East China Sea. ”
Liu Qingqing seemed to understand something and nodded.
"Murong, where are you going after your robotic arm is activated?"
The young man called Murong was stunned when he heard this, lowered his head and said, "Go and lead my hometown!"
"Where is that?"
Liu Qingqing asked this question more than once, but it was all prevaricated by Murong.
Murong also seemed to know that this time he would definitely return to this topic, he didn't plan to continue gagging, looked up at Liu Qingqing's eyes, and said seriously, "I am from Earth, and my hometown is looking for me. ”
Liu Qingqing was silent.
She remembered the scene when she met Murong.
After the battle with Kong Qing that day, she was seriously injured and fell into a quagmire in the Heavenly Oracle Mountain, and the blood oozing from the wound on her body attracted the attention of a giant python, although the remaining ability could make her hide in the void, but the bloody breath on her body had no remaining abnormal energy to hide, and such stealth was useless under the sense of smell of the giant python.
Seeing that the ugly and hideous python was getting closer and closer to him, the disgusting stench in the bloody mouth was getting stronger and stronger, but Liu Qingqing couldn't even take out the strength to raise his hand.
Are you going to die here? Liu Qingqing no longer had hope, closed his eyes, and waited for death to come.
But suddenly, a powerful wave of alien energy came from the sky above her, and when she opened her eyes, a huge black hole had begun to devour the surrounding light above her head, but in a few seconds, Liu Qingqing had fallen into complete darkness, and the python also seemed to feel great fear and buried its body under the mire.
After a few seconds, the sky suddenly cleared, Liu Qingqing came to her senses, and found that everything just now was as if nothing had happened, the giant reckless had already floated up, staring at her, the sense of crisis hit again, and she already suspected that she was hallucinating before death.
The python's body suddenly jumped up in her trance, bringing up a large amount of silt, and just as the bloody mouth was about to swallow her, a figure rushed over at an incredible speed, and a bronze sword plunged straight into the python's head, piercing its bloody mouth, penetrating its jaw, and nailing it fiercely to a rotten stump in the mire, blood flowing down the scales, and a low roar came out from the already blood-red mouth.
The body of the giant python writhed wildly, and the tail was pumped towards its head, just in Liu Qingqing's exclamation, the red cloth strip on the person's body fluttered, only to see his body bent slightly, and he pulled out a bronze sword, and several blood arrows were scattered into the air with the swing of the sword body, and when Liu Qingqing saw the sword again, the body of the giant python had been cut into several pieces and fell into the muddy water, and in an instant, it had dyed the surrounding area a piece of blood red.
That day, under the bright sunshine, Liu Qingqing looked at the bronze sword, the red cloth strips fluttering in the wind, and the immature boy, and his heart was full of shock and happiness.
