Chapter 165: The Great War is Imminent
(a)
The sound of clanging iron tools lasted for a long time. The raging fire burning in the furnace illuminated the entire underground palace red.
There are countless long swords piled up all around, and at this moment, Yazhi is leading a few ancient crocodile clansmen, carrying them back and forth.
"Tooth, how's it going?" Yuruo walked in.
The tooth counted carefully, and replied: "Three thousand!"
"Half of the five days have not been completed?!" Yu Ruo was surprised at the same time, but also slightly confused, "With his ability, it shouldn't be!"
After a pause, she looked around, but at the moment, except for dozens of blacksmiths who were busy, there was no trace of Chi Yan.
"What about others?"
Yazhi pointed to the stone room on the side, and said helplessly: "After giving him the antidote, he said that he was tired and wanted to take a rest." ”
"Rest?" Youruo rolled her eyes and asked, "Xing'er has been staying inside for the past few days and hasn't come out?"
Yazhi nodded, "It's true that I haven't seen her come out." ”
Youruo turned around and summoned the guards, and asked, "Have you noticed anything unusual in the past five days?"
"No," the caretaker recalled, "but he doesn't stay here for long a day, two or three hours at most." ”
"Two or three hours?!" Youruo half-closed his eyes, and let out a sneer in his nose, "It seems that he is not in a hurry at all..."
After hesitating for a moment, the tooth branch walked away from the guard, walked closer to her side, and guessed in a low voice: "You say, Shangguan Yunxing, will she..."
Although the words on the surface only talked about here, it was enough for Youruo to guess the follow-up.
"Although the poison of snake blood can't kill her, Gu Pill is different. She glanced coldly in the direction of the stone chamber and said slowly, "Unless... She was hell-bent on death. ”
Yazhi's suspicion was still very heavy, "What if it's really as you said, she is not afraid of death at all?"
Youruo raised her eyebrows, and her eyes were dyed with a touch of yin owl, "Gu worms not only eat hearts, but also like to eat human flesh and blood. Slowly, little by little, the whole person is eroded clean. At that time, I am afraid that she will want to die, and she will need someone to help her. ”
The most frightening thing is not death, but the inability to survive and the inability to die. It can be seen that her cruelty and viciousness have far surpassed herself.
Just by hearing it, it feels like a hundred insects eating into the body. While the heart of the tooth was admired, a trace of fear also quietly passed through the bottom of his heart. If he hadn't responded to Chihua's proposal that day, maybe he would be like an apricot, or even better.
"Yazhi, go out with me~"
When I was out of my mind, I suddenly heard a shout. With a slight twinkle in her eyes, Ya Zhiwu walked up to her and answered, "Where are you going?"
Walking side by side, Yu Ruo said: "The big war is imminent, and our puppet soldiers should also wake up." ”
Hearing this, the teeth stopped suddenly, and said in confusion: "Ten thousand swords have not been cast yet, why are we in such a hurry to wake up the puppet soldiers?"
"Originally, the Emperor of the Underworld wanted to use the Soul Destroying Sword to get rid of the Netherworld and fight with us. But now, the Netherworld seems to be waking up, so all plans have to be brought forward. ”
Youruo paused, turned to look at him sideways, and said solemnly: "During the period when he escaped into the realm of the primordial gods, we must not let anyone disturb him. ”
Fang Zhi pondered for a moment, and seemed to sort out his thoughts, "So, this is to prepare to take the initiative and shift everyone's attention to us? But these swords are not enough..."
Youruo smiled lightly, and said: "The puppet soldier can be said to have an immortal body, and he just wants this sword of alien fire to make the victory a few points more." ”
"I see. He nodded knowingly.
Youruo crossed him and urged, "Time is pressing, don't delay any longer!"
"That's... Where is the Emperor going to find out about this?"
"An unexpected place." ”

Chi Yan sat on the bed with his eyes closed, motionless. Apricot stood by and didn't make a sound.
At this moment, the dim stone chamber was unusually quiet.
"Whew~" Chi Yan let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.
Xing'er hurriedly handed over a cup of tea and asked anxiously, "How is it?"
Chi Yan took the teacup with crooked eyebrows, raised his lips and said, "I have painstakingly left so many clues, if they can't find my words, then there is nothing to say." ”
Although he answered vaguely, the joy on his face that couldn't be covered was already clear to Xing'er.
"In this way, the gods of Zehuang should have informed the other gods as well. ”
As she spoke, she excitedly pulled up Chiyan and said, "Since that's the case, then let's not stay here." ”
"Wait! We can't get out yet. Chi Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said secretly: The rescue is coming, but the antidote must be found a way.
"Why?" Xing'er sat down beside him and asked, "The gods are coming, and we don't need to forge swords for them here." ”
"The purpose of staying here is to allow Zehuang to find a place where they are hiding. But more importantly..."Chi Yan looked at her with a solemn expression and said, "Get the antidote." ”
Apricot was stunned for a moment, got up and walked to the table. The mist under his eyes became more and more intense, and finally condensed into two lines of clear tears, which slid silently over his face.
After hurriedly wiping it away, a faint smile rose at the corner of her mouth, and she turned around and said, "Isn't the Zehuang Heavenly God proficient in medical skills?"
Chi Yan's eyes hesitated, "But, Yu Ruo said..."
"If the Shen Mansion is too deep, maybe she just wants to blackmail you!"
After a pause, she added, "Even if this poison is powerful, I believe that the Zehuang Heavenly God will definitely be able to think of a way." ”
This woman has always been insidious and cunning, and it is not unreasonable to think about what Xing'er said.
After thinking about it for a while, Chi Yan said, "Let me think about it again." ”
Xing'er frowned, "The puppet soldiers don't know when they will wake up, so we don't have to delay time here." The most important thing now is to tell them about it as soon as possible. ”
When the two were at a stalemate, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the stone room.
The moment the stone door opened, September poked out half of his head and said with a smile: "Good confidant, I'm here to save you." ”
"September?!" Chi Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked behind her again, and said, "Why didn't Ze Huang join you?"
The smile on his face froze, and September pursed his mouth, turned around and said, "Let's go, he's outside." ”

At the same time, except for the mountain.
The morning mist drifted slowly through the forest like wisps of light veil.
Chihua walked through the forest and came to the cliff side halfway up the mountain.
The wind was fierce, and the clothes were flying and hunting. He stood on the edge of the cliff with his hands in his hands, looking into the distance and becoming a god.
'Eh, this boy, you're tight. ’
'You go, although you almost made me fall off a cliff, you also made amends in time. I don't remember any villain!'
On the edge of the cliff, it was the first time that he had a real body without being a wisp of remnant soul, and met Bai Hua.
After a long time, the oncoming cold wind pulled back his thoughts. He smiled faintly and turned around and headed towards the back mountain.
..................
The morning fog cleared, and a ray of sunlight peeked through the cracks in the clouds.
Droplets of water as fine as smoke and dust splattered out of the waterfall, and the sunlight shone with a little golden light. In the mist, rainbow halos loomed.
Chihua stood on the shore, looking at the waterfall in front of him, and I don't know how long it took. Even though the flying mist soaked the silver threads and robes, he didn't know it.
"Hey, Senior Brother Qin, you are still powerful, and this spiritual power is also at your fingertips." Unlike me, I go back wet every day. ’
'Usually I leave early, otherwise we will sit together in the future, and I will help you dry your clothes when you go back, so you don't have to go back wet every day.' ’
Time does not come back, but the memory is in the heart.
Now, those memories buried deep in his heart are like an invisible long thread, pulling him back to his hometown.
The water droplets swept by the wind hit my face, and I felt a bit of a biting coolness. The gloomy red flame began to gradually become clearer.
............
The big war is imminent, and everyone rushes to the realm.
At the moment, the Remian Mountain was empty, and only three or two disciples remained here.
A few yellow leaves on the trees swayed in the wind, and the dead leaves and dead branches covered the entire courtyard. Outside the neglected Heart Nourishing Palace, there is already a trace of depression.
Walking to the stone steps outside the hall, Chihua's eyes flashed in front of his eyes, bathed in the sun's sleeping face when the catkins were flying one day.
Pushing open the door, a row of bunks in front of him reminded him of the picture of the two hugging each other and falling asleep.
The fingers brushed over the futon and slowly gathered together. Memories are like a huge whirlpool, pulling him little by little into the endless abyss.
The eyebrows are sad and sad, and the smile is sad.
He asked himself, why did he come here?
