Chapter 240: Separation
A little wet raindrop hit his face, and there was a chill. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhu Jue slowly opened his eyes, and there was a mess in his eyes, there were originally more than a dozen huge stone pillars, but most of them were only cracked wreckage at the moment. Looking around, I found myself embedded in a depression in a rock wall, and in front of me was a cliff, and if I rolled over, I could fall into the lava. When I looked up, I saw that a large hole had been carved into the top of the cave, and it was from there that the rain drifted in, extinguishing the sporadic fire.
Zhu Jue tried to sit up, but he felt lightheaded, and his body didn't seem to belong to him. There was a strange touch on the left side of his abdomen, as if something hard was knocking against him, and he reached over and touched it, grabbing a spherical object. Zhu Jue took it to his eyes and looked at it carefully, only to see that this object was as big as a diamond, light blue, smooth and translucent throughout, and there was a cold feeling in his hand. Before Zhu Jue could start further research on it, a shout suddenly sounded in his ears, and when he looked up, he saw Yun Ze and Anna standing on the only stone pillar that was still intact, waving to him.
Zhu Jue pocketed the ball, then jumped out and stepped into the void to come to the two of them. Just as he wanted to speak, he suddenly heard a tremor, lowered his head, and found that the stone pillar under his feet had also reached its limit, and the entire upper part began to tilt to the side, and it could be completely broken at any time.
"Get out of here first!" Anna waved her hand, sweeping straight in the direction she had come. Zhu Jue and Yun Ze nodded and followed closely behind her. When everyone was about to leave this place, Zhu Jue glanced out of his eyes and saw that something seemed to flash in the boiling lava. However, before he could take a closer look, the stone pillar broke completely, accompanied by a loud "boom", which happened to block the entrance to the cave, isolating the red cave from the outside world.
The crowd returned to the fork in the road and fell silent for a moment.
"What happened just now?" Zhu Jue finally couldn't help but ask.
"If my guess is correct, although the Fire Qilin was promoted to the Beast Saint, it failed to survive the Thunder Tribulation, and this is why it ended up in pieces. After some thought, Anna replied.
"Zhu Jue, did you get that thing?" Yun Ze seemed to remember something, turned his head and asked Zhu Jue. I saw Zhu Jue take out a small bottle from his arms and said triumphantly: "That's nature." Anna snatched the vial at once, then uncorked it and sniffed it.
"Qilin blood?" Anna's face changed, she looked at Zhu Jue and Yun Ze vigilantly, and there was a hint of hostility in her eyes: "Didn't you say that you came to catch demons, what's the use of wanting this Qilin blood?"
Zhu Jue hurriedly waved his hand: "Miss An, don't get me wrong, things are not what you think." Then, he told Anna all the purpose and process of their trip, and even the occasional encounter with the poisonous Jiao was not missed. After listening to Zhu Jue's explanation, Anna shook her head, as if thinking about whether Zhu Jue's words were credible.
"Forget it, I don't look like a bad person either, I'll give it back to you. Anna chuckled and threw the vial to Zhu Jue. Zhu Jue exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly took it down, seeing that the vial was not damaged, he breathed a sigh of relief and carefully put it into his arms.
"Miss An, since this fire unicorn is dead, how can you explain it to your father?" Yun Ze asked.
"Well, it's okay, what else can he do to me, at most it's just a few reprimands and a few copies of the scriptures. Anna waved her hand, but she looked open-minded. In this way, the three of you and I said a word, and they returned to the entrance of the Fire Cloud Cave during the conversation. At this moment, the rain has stopped, and feeling the comfort brought by the breeze, Zhu Jue has a sense of joy for the rest of his life.
"Alright, then it's time for me to go back too. Anna turned around and hugged her fists at Zhu Jue and Yun Ze.
"Will there be a chance to meet in the future?" Zhu Jue asked with a smile. Anna rolled her eyes, then shrugged her shoulders and said, "Who can tell you about the things in this world, let it be." After speaking, she whistled, and suddenly a golden spirit deer with wings on her back flew from the air, and then sat down in Zhu Jue's surprised gaze. The spirit deer let out a clear roar, then spread its wings and flew into the distance, quickly disappearing from the sight of the two.
"What a strange woman......" Zhu Jue muttered, only now did he realize that he knew nothing about this girl except for the name Anna. At this time, Yun Ze put his hand on his shoulder, and then said with a smile: "Let's go, we should go back too." ”
In the silent sacrificial hall, there was a sudden sound of footsteps. I saw Qiushui looking left and right, looking at the surrounding scene from time to time, and his eyes were full of curiosity. The faint light of candles in the hall illuminates the many strange statues, all of which are in a variety of shapes and images, but all of them have a fierce and chilling face. At this time, Huang Xuan slowly walked down the stairs and came to the front of Qiushui.
"Patriarch Huang, I was specially called in the middle of the night, I don't know what is important?" Qiushui stretched out his hand, and was about to touch the statue beside him, when he suddenly saw Huang Xuan appear, and hurriedly retracted his hand again.
"Qiushui, you've been in my clan for some time, haven't you?" asked Huang Xuan with a smile. Seeing Qiushui nodded, she continued: "These days, you have won the competition for my Tagan clan and won face, and you have come forward to rescue Xiaodi from the hands of the snow demon, which can be said to be a great credit. This time, although I don't want to admit it, my father has not replied yet, and it is very likely that he was said by you. Based on your excellent performance, I have decided not to make it difficult for you any longer. ”
"Embarrassed for me?" Qiushui had a puzzled look on his face. At this time, I saw Huang Xuan take out a package from behind him, and then handed it to Qiushui. When I opened the package, I saw that it was the purpose of Qiushui coming to the Zhuoma Mountains - the Holy Snow Lotus.
"Patriarch Huang, this ......" Qiushui was speechless for a while, looking at Huang Xuan with excitement on his face.
"Although the Holy Snow Lotus is the treasure of my clan, it has always been useless except for sacrifice. I've heard people say before that you came to this land of ice and snow from the rain country to find the Holy Snow Lotus in order to cure the disease and save your life. Rules are dead, but people are alive, and since this Holy Snow Lotus is so important to you, it should be returned to you. ”
"Thank you, Patriarch Huang!" Qiushui thanked again and again, hugging the Holy Snow Lotus in his arms tightly. This time, no one will want to take it from him again!
"Okay, it's not too early, you can go back and rest, and it's better to leave early tomorrow and go back to your life as soon as possible. Huang Xuan waved her hand, looking at the back of Qiushui leaving, for some reason, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
