Volume 1 Darkness Rising Chapter 58 Awakening
Changling kept looking at Zhou Chang, thinking that if this guy suddenly said, 'I'm not afraid of death', as a nobleman, a great swordsman, and the ruler of the Yanxia Empire, King Dayu, he really didn't know how to answer. Seeing Zhou Chang say this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as if he had let go of a heavy burden, and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid of death." ”
As soon as the words fell, the woman's face became blurred and quickly disappeared.
The moment the woman's face disappeared, a faint sigh suddenly sounded in Zhou Chang and Changling's ears, followed by a burst of laughter.
Then, I heard the soft and graceful voice say, "Only one of the two of you can leave here alive, and whoever pulls out the root of the bone flower first can leave." ”
The voice floated from the air above their heads, faintly with a bit of pity and unbearability.
However, Zhou Chang and Changling heard more weirdness and viciousness from the tone of this voice.
As soon as the voice was finished, the true qi solidified in Changling's body melted in an instant, and his body could move freely again.
The changes in his body made Changling have to believe that all this was done by that strange woman, and he also had to believe that the woman could kill him at any time.
Thinking of death, the woman's words immediately echoed in his ears, and he immediately thought of the root of the flower standing in the blood water, and thought that that thing should be the root of the Tibetan bone flower.
At this time, Zhou Chang also thought of the pale green flower root standing in the blood water. Just as Changling stepped into the bloody water, Zhou Chang also ran over.
Changling saw that Zhou Chang also ran over, sneered, stretched out his right hand and hit Zhou Chang's chest like lightning, only to see Zhou Chang's body lose its center of gravity, fly more than two meters away, and fall heavily to the ground.
"You are destined to die, but the hateful thing is that it is not me who killed you. Changling looked coldly at Zhou Chang who fell to the ground, and said resentfully.
After Changling finished speaking, he squatted down and couldn't wait to pull out the root that had no flowers, and a smug smile appeared on his face. As soon as he pulled it lightly, Zhou Chang would be asked for his life by the treacherous woman, and the iron sword must be taken away by himself. However, it is a pity that I can't get the secret of unlocking the iron sword from that kid.
Thinking in his heart, he plucked the root of the flower with his hands.
Just when the flower root was pulled out of the ground by Changling, a woman's terrible cry was suddenly heard, and the ground of the uprooted flower root was sunk into a big pit, and the blood all over the ground flowed into the big pit.
Before Changling could react to what had happened, he suddenly stretched out a pair of miserable white human hands from the big pit, grabbed Changling's feet, pulled hard, and dragged Changling, who had not yet returned to his senses, to the ground and dragged him to the pit.
Changling finally reacted, he made up his mind, and pulled out his long sword to cut the two hands. But the hands seemed to be made of fine iron, and they slashed on them with a clattering sound, and there was not the slightest wound.
He calmed down, forced the true qi in his body to pour into the long sword, and then slashed the miserable white hands with all his might. Although several wounds were cut this time, the hands seemed to have the ability to heal themselves, and the wounds healed quickly.
Changling watched his body slowly being dragged into the pit, with a look of panic, but he couldn't do anything about it, suddenly he saw Zhou Chang, and pleaded with him: "Zhou Chang, save me." ”
Zhou Chang happened to get up from the ground at this time, and saw that Changling's upper body had been dragged into the black hole that suddenly appeared with a pair of hands, and he didn't think much about it, he subconsciously pounced and grabbed Changling's hand.
Changling didn't think that Zhou Chang would save him, and looked at Zhou Chang gratefully. His slender eyes left Zhou Chang with countless nightmares, it was okay if he didn't look at it, when he saw it, Zhou Chang suddenly let go of his hand, "Lao Tzu save you, you will kill me." ”
Changling was a little stunned, and then turned angry, when he opened his mouth to scold Zhou Chang, the pair of miserable white hands slammed into force, and his whole person suddenly sank down quickly, and all that reached Zhou Chang's ears was a terrible scream.
Zhou Chang was startled by this scream and took two steps back. At this moment, a puff of gray-white smoke rose from the entrance of the cave, and soon transformed into a human form.
Zhou Chang took a closer look at the gray-white smoke transformed into a human form, which was somewhat similar to Changling.
The humanoid opened his eyes, emitting a light blue light, and looked directly at Zhou Chang, saying something in his mouth.
Zhou Chang's face turned pale with shock, thinking that it was the ghost of Changling who came to ask for his life, so he turned around and ran.
Just as Zhou Chang turned around, the pair of miserable white hands stretched out again, grabbed the smoke-transformed human form, and dragged it into the cave again.
It didn't take long for a woman to crawl out of the dark pit, naked and covered in deep, black, stinky dirt.
The woman's bewitching body, under the blowing of the breeze, was like a water snake, swaying and swaying, very enchanting. She looked at the back of Zhou Chang Zhang Huang running away, a strange smile flashed on her face, and then a faint sadness appeared on her face, and she murmured: "It's been five thousand years, and I've finally woken up!"
Zhou Chang didn't dare to look back, and ran desperately towards the woods, because he was too nervous, he tripped over the stones scattered everywhere several times, and his legs hurt and screamed, but he didn't dare to stop, and ran until he ran into the woods, and then he turned around and glanced in the direction of the palace.
He saw the woman, the bright moonlight shining on her mud-covered body, and it was difficult to distinguish her identity and gender. But the bewitching figure and the graceful figure swaying in the wind made Zhou Chang believe that it was a woman.
Zhou Chang found that the woman seemed to be looking at him, and he could even feel the meaning in the woman's gaze. It was the smug gaze that a man would look at after he had succeeded in his scheme.
Zhou Chang didn't know, he only knew that he should leave here immediately, he turned around and walked deeper into the woods. At this moment, he no longer had to worry about Changling's threat, because the appearance of that woman seemed to represent Changling's death, including his soul.
Zhou Chang didn't know why this thought appeared in his heart, maybe it was the reason why he saw the gray-white smoke that looked like Changling just now.
Thinking about it, Zhou Chang had already walked to the depths of the woods, he had no goal, just kept walking in one direction, as long as he could get out of the woods quickly.
The moonlight flickered on and off under the swaying leaves, and Zhou Chang couldn't see the road ahead clearly, and he walked very slowly.
I don't know how long it was, but before I knew it, the sky had broken, and the east showed a touch of morning glow. Zhou Chang's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't know if it was because he didn't sleep well, or because he remembered his relatives.
When the sky was bright, Zhou Chang climbed up the tree and took out a bird's nest, drank a few raw bird eggs, and then continued on his way.
It was almost noon, Zhou Chang finally walked out of this forest, he looked up into the distance, the mountains were majestic, the green forest was undulating, and it was connected to the sky, and there was no end in sight.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and he simply didn't think about anything, leaning against a big tree, and fell asleep in a daze.
In his sleep, it was as if someone was patting him on the face. He subconsciously reached out to block it, turned his head to the other side and continued to sleep.
However, the man slapped him in the face harder, and seemed to be still talking in his ear.
Zhou Chang scolded, suddenly remembered where he was, there would be wild beasts at any time, jumped up violently, and pulled out the sword on his back, "Who is it?"
No one answered, but he saw a woman in a black robe, slender with long hair hanging over her shoulders, fluttering in the breeze, covering most of her face.
The woman carried a dark longbow and a quiver with a few feathered arrows on her back.
Although Zhou Chang couldn't see the woman's face clearly, the aura emanating from this woman's body made him feel very kind. The person who can make Zhou Chang feel this way, except for Jane Jane, there is no one else. This feeling, combined with the woman's dress, Zhou Chang can be sure that the woman in front of him is Jane Jane. He lowered his head again and looked at the woman's finger, which had a rusty iron ring.
"Jenny, is that you?" Zhou Chang asked softly.
The woman brushed away her blown-up hair, revealing a pure and pretty cheek. However, that deep gaze, against the backdrop of the pale yellow face, looks mysterious and weird.
"Brother, remember me. Jennifer had a faint smile on her face, and her deep eyes looked directly at Zhou Chang.
Zhou Chang was a little embarrassed by Jane Nizhen's gaze, and looked away, "Where have you been in the past few days?" ”
Speaking of this, I thought of Angelina and Herman, whose lives and deaths were unknown, and I couldn't help but worry about their safety.
Jenny pursed her lips and shifted her gaze to the mountains in the distance, with a confused expression, "That day, when I heard you mention the name 'Gulvidan', an inexplicable hatred suddenly rose in my heart, as if he had killed my relatives. I couldn't contain the anger in my heart, so I went to him. ”
Hearing Jane Jenny say this, Zhou Chang didn't care too much, this girl was always elusive, "Forget it this time, don't say goodbye next time." By the way, what kind of enmity do you have with Gulvedan? And did you find him?"
Thinking of Gulvedan, Zhou Chang unconsciously appeared in Hela's mind, this woman left an indelible impression on him, as long as he thought of this woman, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
Jenny Jenny shook her head, "I didn't find him. ”
With that, she turned her head to the place where the sun was setting, and the look of confusion on her face became even thicker.
Zhou Chang looked in the direction of Jenny Jane, and then realized that it was already dusk, and he had slept from noon to the present without defense in this barren mountain range, and couldn't help but laugh at himself for being too careless.
At this time, I suddenly heard Jane Jennifer say again: "I don't remember who I am, when I was conscious, I wandered aimlessly around this 100,000 barren mountain, and since I met you, I have a feeling of family." I've been following you ever since. ”
When Zhou Chang heard Jane Jane say this, he remembered that he was an abandoned orphan, could it be that Jane Jane was also abandoned by her parents? Because everyone was abandoned by their parents, did they feel close? If not, could it be that the two of them were really brothers and sisters, and they were both abandoned by their parents in two distant countries? But looking at her age, Jenny Jane was obviously older than herself, could it be that she looked a little more mature?
Zhou Chang thought wildly, and the more he thought about it, the more unreliable he felt, and a self-deprecating laugh appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"What are you laughing at?" Jenny Jenny tilted her head to look at Zhou Chang.
Zhou Chang didn't know how to say to Jane Jenny, and shook his head, "It's nothing, let's go." ”
"Where?" asked Jenny.
Zhou Chang was stunned, he really didn't know where to go, raised his eyes and looked around, then pointed to a mountain not far away and said, "Find a cave to stay in for one night first, and then make plans tomorrow." ”
So, the two of them walked briskly towards the mountain. The mountain was not very high, it was overgrown with various mountain trees, and soon they found a cave in the mountain.
The cave was very low, and they had to bend their bodies to get in, and the cave was not very spacious, but the two of them could make do and lie down.
Zhou Chang inspected the cave, and there was no trace of the beast, so he went out of the cave and picked up a branch and weeds, covering the entrance of the cave.
After such a toss, the sky also darkened, and the two talked for a while, and then each leaned against the stone wall and slept in their clothes.
