How ridiculous the promise of not long ago is now in retrospect, but I will finally fail her. It is like a small invisible blade, cutting one by one in Xiao Yilan's heart.

Tears blurred his vision, and Xiao Yilan didn't see the moment when the ghost horned beast's huge mouth closed.

The blood seemed to bloom, and it was actually the same shape as the wings behind Meng Lin. Xiao Yilan seemed to hear the sound of bones tearing, he became more and more scared, and hugged Meng Lin in front of him.

In the gloomy sky, the sprayed puff of blood seemed to fill half of Meng Lin's wings, Xiao Yilan couldn't see what was happening behind Meng Lin, only her pale and bloodless face.

Before he could react again, the Ghost Horned Beast, which had already closed its mouth, arched forward with the momentum of its forward rush, and with a strong force, along with the sharp horn, it smashed on Meng Lin's back.

Xiao Yilan only felt a terrifying force coming from the delicate body he was holding, and both of them were knocked out and landed on the land of the extreme south.

Xiao Yilan rolled on the ground with Meng Lin in his arms, as if he was about to fall apart, he sat up with the pain on his body as if he was about to break up, and glanced at Meng Lin in front of him. He trembled, and hurriedly called out to Meng Lin, but he never heard an answer.

Something tore his heart apart, and I don't know if it was blood or tears. It is as if a needle is pierced in a blood vessel, and as the blood flows through the body, every meridian muscle has a sense of pain.

He began to cry, crying weakly and in despair.

The ghosthorn let out a low roar, the blood in its mouth excited it, and its front hooves rose and fell, and the water splashed, but it still didn't dare to go ashore.

Xiao Yilan closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at the wounds on Meng Lin's body. He gradually stopped crying and slowly stood up. The darkness in front of him made him hear his heavy breathing more clearly, as well as the whirring wind and the roar of the ghosthorn. Everything around is clearer.

He suddenly stepped forward, facing the direction of the Onihorn. This made the ghost horned beast more and more excited, and seemed to be smacking its mouth, waiting for Xiao Yilan to step into the river, looking forward to the upcoming feast.

The wind rivers are roaring!

The wind around suddenly became louder. Then something entangled him, and he pulled himself backwards, moving away from the sound of the tumbling water in front of him.

Xiao Yilan suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a blue light in front of him, enveloping himself and the ghost-horned beast, as well as the entire Katoqi River. The vines sticking out of nowhere pulled him back sharply, and a few vines also wrapped Meng Lin, who was unconscious on the ground, and retreated into the distance together.

Everything around him surged forward quickly, and Xiao Yilan saw a familiar figure suspended in mid-air.

Huai Qing was suspended in the wind, and the robe on his body was blown by the wind, and it bloomed like a flower.

A mocking smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and he lost consciousness.

......

When Xiao Yilan woke up, as soon as he opened his eyes, the old face of the ancient tree god appeared in his field of vision.

He got up slowly, looked around, everything around him was the same, Huai Qing quietly stood on the branch of the ancient tree god, Meng Lin, who was covered in blood and scars, lay in front of the root of the ancient tree god, only that face was calm and delicate, as if he was asleep. Li Zheng, who was glaring angrily, quickly approached from not far away.

It's back again. Xiao Yilan sneered to himself.

Li Zheng grabbed Xiao Yilan, his eyes widened as if they were about to fall out: "Miss Meng became like this because of you?"

Xiao Yilan kept his head hanging and didn't answer out loud.

"You're a ...... Wood, Brother Luo, now it's Miss Meng, it's all because of you!" Li Zheng suddenly drew his sword, wanting to put it on Xiao Yilan's neck.

The blue light flickered again, shrouding Li Zheng's sword, and before it was unsheathed, it was already rare to make an inch. The ancient tree god seemed to sigh softly.

"I see, it's all because of you...... We are nothing...... Haha!" Li Zheng laughed bitterly, grabbed Xiao Yilan's collar and threw him out. Then he took a sip, with a hideous smile on his face, and looked at Xiao Yilan with a piercing gaze, and every word that stood out seemed to have a thorn: "The friendship in Benhai City, I have paid it off along the way, so it is convenient to break it here." I can't afford you Xiao Gongzi, and when you and Miss Meng thought about leaving, you didn't think of me, right?"

He turned out, and without looking back, he said, "From now on, it's a strange road!"

His figure disappeared into the jungle, and Xiao Yilan never looked up, as if he had exhausted all his strength while sitting on the ground.

"That's your design again, old fellow. After a while, Xiao Yilan moved his lips, but his voice was as low as a mosquito's chirp, and he didn't care if the ancient tree god could hear it.

"Not really. The cost was bigger than I thought. The voice of the ancient tree god sounded in his ears, "The last step you took to kill yourself was to force me to make a move?"

"Huh...... It turns out that my life is so valuable......" The corners of Xiao Yilan's mouth twitched, but he couldn't laugh.

"Can you save her?"

"Maybe, I didn't plan to hurt so badly. ”

"Bullshit plan!" Xiao Yilan slowly stood up with his knees propped up, "If it didn't go as you expected, Huai Qing would have appeared a long time ago." ”

"What I say at this moment doesn't matter to you. ”

"What kind of practitioner you are, I did. As a condition, I want you to save her. ”

"Good. ”

Xiao Yilan looked at the face of the ancient tree god. It required him to look up hard, and at a glance he saw how small he was. He looked at the gods like a worm.

"You think you know human nature and you can play with people's hearts. As everyone knows, you are just speculating on the most vital and difficult things in the world with a heart that has long decayed and has no vitality. Xiao Yilan raised his head with difficulty and said mockingly: "Actually, you don't understand anything, it's just that all kinds of testimonies in the past 10,000 years make you think that everything you see is human nature." ”

"If you have seen it so thoroughly, why did you agree?" asked the ancient tree god.

Xiao Yilan smiled and lowered his head, his eyes fell on Meng Lin: "I always feel that I haven't done anything for her, and it's not worth her to treat me like this." Let me do something for her, I can feel better, and make me feel that everything she treats me is not for nothing. ”

He shed tears and said with a smile: "It makes me feel that I can bear her persistence!"

The ancient tree god was silent for a moment. On the treetops, Huai Qing was slightly moved.

"Let's get started. ”

With the ancient tree god as the center, the blue light suddenly shot out, dazzling, like flowing water and like yarn, enveloping the entire extreme south.

......

Shangguan Xiang woke up in a daz, but only to see a green light in front of him, and there was silence around him, and the ghost-horned beast should have gone away. He wanted to reach out and rub his eyes, thinking that something was wrong with his eyes, but the pain in his right hand suddenly reminded him that his right arm was far away from him.

It is also considered that he has been fighting in southern Xinjiang for many years, his physique is strong, he has not bandaged his broken arm, he has bled a lot, and he has not yet died. But he himself knew that there was not much left to live, and the broken arm had not healed, but was a little ulcerated. Here, alone, he can only wait for death.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps approaching, and Shangguan Xiang even had some trouble turning his head, and as soon as he saw the person who came, he was lifted by the whole person.

It was actually a familiar face, he smiled silently, and said weakly: "You...... Why didn't you ...... with those two before?"

Li Zheng was expressionless and said, "You said that the coming day will be long." Do you think you have a day to come?"

"That'...... That's up to you...... Give me a chance......" Shangguan Xiang's voice was very weak, let alone resisting, and he couldn't even give birth to the idea of doing it.

"You're smart. I want you something, give it to me, I'll help you put medicine on it, and if you're lucky, you'll still be alive. ”

"What...... What's ......?"

Li Zheng said word by word: "Internal Gong Method!"

Shangguan Xiang was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "No one has taken the entry of this thing of internal strength...... Convenient...... It is easy to make mistakes...... I am ...... suffered this loss...... But I ...... You can start by combining the mantra with ...... The law of luck tells you...... After saving me, I ...... Let me tell you about some of the exercises...... Tips for Practice......"

"Okay. Li Zheng resolutely agreed.

Shangguan Xiang began to recite the mantra and explain the method of luck, but he was still bleeding, and his voice was getting weaker and weaker, and by the time he finished speaking, he didn't even have the strength to speak.

Li Zheng quickly recalled it in his heart to make sure that there was no mistake. He listened very carefully, because he knew that Shangguan Xiang could not speak a second time. He put Shangguan Xiang back on the ground, but walked directly across the river without looking at him.

"You ......" Shangguan Xiang's eyes widened, and only his eyes could keep up with Li Zheng's distant back.

"I mean, if you're lucky, you'll be alive. It's a pity you're out of luck and it took too long. I have a lot of time to figure it out. Li Zheng didn't look back and disappeared into the dense jungle of southern Xinjiang.
