Chapter 390: A Difficult Trek
Xie Qin hadn't heard Wuji's voice, and she didn't know if the voice in her head was Wuji, but she quickly realized that there was an evil qi planted by Wuji in Xuanying's body, and it was very likely that the evil qi entered her body along the heat that Xuanying transmitted to her.
Although she didn't understand why this evil qi didn't reach her body when she was violated by Xuan Ying last night, she could now confirm that this evil qi was indeed invading her body.
Therefore, Xie Qin didn't care whether she would be frozen by the cold wind again, and decided to try her best to break free from this connection, and resolutely couldn't let the evil spirit qi control her anymore, so she leaned forward while her limbs were warm, trying to break free of Xuan Ying's palm, but unfortunately, this struggle did not come as expected, her body seemed to have been soaked in warm water for a long time, and she couldn't exert any strength, and Zhenyuan couldn't lift it, and she only moved an inch and was no longer able to move.
Xie Qin secretly screamed badly, knowing that his body was no longer under the control of his thoughts, and it also showed that the situation was in danger beyond delay, and if he didn't get rid of this control, even his mind would be manipulated by the evil spirit's qi, and he would become a puppet puppet like Xuan Ying who only knew that he was infinitely effective.
Thinking of this, Xie Qin's spiritual platform was clear, and he felt that his hands and feet could move slightly, so he lowered his head and neck, and raised his right arm, which was already holding a torch close to him, upward, and the two came together, and he was devoured on his forearm in one bite.
Xie Qin poured all the anxiety, resentment, shame, and humiliation she had experienced in the past two days into her mouth, and this bite actually bit off a small piece of the flesh on her forearm, and as the blood rushed out, she raised her head to the sky and let out a cry of pain, and a cloudy breath spewed out of her mouth in the dark.
As soon as this breath erupted, Xie Qindeng's consciousness was clear, and while the pain was still gone, her body fell and rushed forward, but she broke away from Xuan Ying's palm and fell to the cold ground.
Xuan Ying said "um" in the dark, he saw that Xie Qin could no longer support it in the cold, and his heart was as cold as ice, and his compassion suddenly flashed, and he couldn't help but reach out to help Xie Qin keep out the cold.
——The evil spirit qi in Xuanying's body does not distinguish between yin and yang, when it encounters yin, it will be yang, and when it encounters yang, it will turn into yin, and when it encounters such a strange cold that can freeze out the flames, it will immediately be transformed into the qi of the yang, burning all over Xuanying's body, so it can dissolve the cold qi on Xie Qin's body in a short time.
After hearing Xie Qin's shouting, Xuan Ying fell forward and avoided his palm, and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xie Qin reluctantly stood up, endured the pain in his arm, and asked, "What are you going to do, do you have to make me a person like you······?" I see, you shouldn't be blamed for that. ”
She suddenly realized in the middle of her words that Xuan Ying wanted to ward off the cold for her out of good intentions, not to harm her on purpose, but because the evil spirit qi in his body flowed out unconsciously, which was purely accidental.
Xie Qin sighed, and said, "Could it be that this is fate? I can't go deeper into it, and if I stay here for a while, I'm afraid that I will melt into the ice wall and become an iceman, we ······"
When she said this, she suddenly saw a little starlight behind Xuan Ying flying unhurriedly, bypassing Xuan Ying's legs and landing at Xie Qin's feet.
Xie Qin hurriedly leaned down to look, and found that it was a bead the size of a cup, with a faint red light inside, as if there was a flame burning inside, and when he held it in his hand, he felt warm in his hand, and after a while, he was already comfortable, and the cold was gone, and with the faint light of this bead, the face of Xuanying five feet away could be faintly visible.
Xie Qin was greatly surprised, this pearl came too strangely, it appeared when she needed it the most, who sent it over, and what was the intention? She whispered behind Xuan Ying and asked, "Who is there?"
Unfortunately, no one answered her, except for the sound of the cold wind blowing from time to time, there was not a sound from far or near.
Xuan Ying looked at Xie Qin and asked, "Who gave you this bead?"
As he spoke, the Dingtian Divine Halberd appeared in his hand.
Xie Qin was afraid that there would be extraneous branches, so he hurriedly said: "There is no one else, there are only you and me here, this bead ······"
She couldn't give a plausible explanation for how the bead came about.
Xuan Ying snorted, turned around and was about to go back to find the person who sent the pearl.
Xie Qin hurriedly said, "Xuanying, wait a minute, don't you want to see Linglong?"
Xuan Ying stopped and said coldly: "I don't believe your words now, there is no Linglong here at all, you have been lying, I don't care about you for the sake of already marrying you, but I don't want to have a next time." ”
"You ······"
Seeing that he was leaving, Xie Qin knew that it was useless to forcibly stop him, so he did the opposite, and sneered: "Okay, you go back, I'll go tell Linglong now, let her leave, anyway, you don't want to see her, just let her go!"
After speaking, she didn't care whether Xuan Ying was leaving or staying, holding the bead in her right hand, covering the wound on her right arm with her left hand, she endured the pain and turned around and continued to walk deep into the belly of the mountain.
After walking about forty or fifty steps, Xie Qin heard footsteps behind him follow.
After all, Xuan Ying subconsciously couldn't let go of the word Linglong, so Xie Qin lured him back with a trick to catch the old indulgence.
This time, Xie Qin no longer turned around to talk to Xuan Ying, and ran out of more than 100 steps in one breath.
From here, the further you go inside, the higher the terrain rises, and the slope gets bigger and bigger, and the rocky ground under your feet is unusually smooth because of the solid ice, and it becomes more and more difficult to walk, sometimes you have to take half a step back when you take a step forward.
And the farther you go in, the more cold the wind becomes.
At first, Xie Qin was holding the unknown bead in his hand, but he didn't feel the cold at all, but after a hundred steps, the cold began to thicken again, and the frost gradually rose in the place where the bead behind him could not be reflected.
As he walked, Xie Qin suddenly felt a trace of coolness on his face penetrate his skin, and when he looked up, he saw that huge snowflakes were falling from the cracks in the ice wall above his head.
It's snowing here? It seems so unreasonable.
In her panic, she suddenly felt that there was no footsteps behind her.
Didn't Xuan Ying follow?
Xie Qin lifted the bead and shook it downward, but unfortunately the light of the bead could only illuminate the scene within five steps, and it was impossible to see clearly any further.
Unable to see Xuanying or hear his voice, Xie Qin panicked: Could it be that he didn't tell him and returned? or······
"Xuan Ying, are you there?"
There was an echo between the ice walls, but there was no response from Xuanying.
Xie Qin hurriedly turned around and walked back, ran twenty or thirty steps, and hit a hard object with a "bang" in a panic.
She raised her right hand and looked at it through the glimmer of the beads, and it turned out that it had hit Xuan Ying's body.
However, at this time, Xuan Ying's whole body was already covered with ice shell and ice armor, and he stood there motionless, but he was frozen.
Although Xuan Ying has been practicing Taoism for two hundred years, and has the qi of evil spirits to transform yin and yang, after all, his mind is confused and cannot be adjusted normally, and he can't resist the continuous invasion of the cold breath and stands here after all.
Xie Qin was shocked, and hurriedly stuffed the bead into Xuan Ying's chest to melt the ice shell on his body for him.
Unexpectedly, before the ice shell on Xuan Ying's chest melted, he heard the sound of "emptiness" coming from under the passage, and it came from far and near, straight here.
"Oops!"
Xie Qin concluded that it must have been the Great Dao Patriarch or the Demon King who found that she and Xuan Ying were missing and searched around, and then found the entrance to the mountainside where they had entered, and had already chased them in.
So she turned her mind, backhanded Xuanying on her back, and stuffed the bead into the place where her back met Xuanying, and then climbed up step by step.
After all, carrying a person on her back is so agile to walk alone, not to mention that the ice road under her feet is as smooth as a mirror, fortunately, she has the support of Xuanying's Dingtian Divine Halberd in her hand, and she can send a step upward with a poke on the ice.
In this way, step by step and a stick of incense, Xie Qin was out of breath and exhausted, and the wound on his right arm was not bandaged, and blood gushed out from the wound and splattered all the way.
The essence was hidden in the blood, and the excessive loss of blood made Xie Qin's eyes dazzle and dizzy, she knew that if she continued like this, she was afraid that she and her life would be lost.
Just when she was disheartened, she suddenly felt a red light flash in front of her.
