Chapter Twenty-Three: The Black-Scaled Serpent III
However, he did not dodge, and his eyes became sharper.
"It's now!"
The long sword stabbed out, and with a "snort", it broke straight through the upper jaw of the horned scale snake, and green blood spurted out, and the fishy smell made Xiao Ning a little dizzy.
The electric current was excited, and a series of electric lights flashed out, rushing down the blade of the sword into the wound.
Almost instantly, the Horned Scaly Snake's body stiffened, standing upright, and barely halfway through its painful hiss.
Xiao Ning knew that this was only temporary, and the current was excited through the body of the horned scale snake, and the effect would be much stronger, but with its strong **, it would not last long.
Biting the tip of his tongue, Xiao Ning forced himself to concentrate, rushed to seven inches below the neck of the horned scale snake at the fastest speed, and stabbed out with a sword without hesitation, hitting the white spot in the middle.
Hiss~
The intense pain freed the horned scale snake from its paralyzed state, and with a swing of its giant tail, it directly slapped him out before Xiao Ning could react.
Bang!
slapped Xiao Ning away, and the little strength left by the horned scale snake was exhausted, and its body fell to the ground hard, bleeding green blood, and its body twitched a few times before it stopped moving.
With Xiao Ning's reaction, it was naturally impossible not to guard against the death-defying counterattack of the horned scale snake in advance, but his body had already been injured and injured, and he couldn't react at all.
Fortunately, the horned scale snake was injured by seven inches, and the force of this blow was not very large, otherwise he would definitely have died on the spot.
Rao is like this, Xiao Ning was still shot several feet away, and after falling to the ground, he spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, and the injury became even more serious.
In fact, the whole battle was not long, Ye Qingdie had been watching nervously from a distance, and when he saw Xiao Ning stabbing the horned scale snake, his face had just shown a hint of joy, and suddenly he was shot out again, and he was suddenly frightened, and hurriedly trotted over.
She looked more embarrassed than Xiao Ning, but it was more just a flesh wound, and after resting for a while, she had somewhat regained some strength.
Seeing Xiao Ning struggling to get up, Ye Qingdie reached out to help, and at the same time said with concern: "Brother Xiao Ning, how are you?"
Xiao Ning has already secretly inspected it, and his injuries this time are really serious, and he can't recover in a short time at all.
In fact, he was able to run away just now, but he couldn't leave Ye Qingdie alone, if he didn't fight hard with the horned scale snake, he wouldn't be able to kill this beast at all, so this result was also expected by him.
Seeing Ye Qingdie's concerned gaze, Xiao Ning smiled bitterly: "If I move a little now, my whole body hurts so much, I can't die, I just can't act on my own." ”
If you want to leave, you have to rely on Ye Qingdie, this matter can't be hidden, you can only say it directly, as for persuading her to leave by herself, Xiao Ning knew that it was impossible, so she didn't mention it at all.
Although Ye Qingdie was nervous, when she heard Xiao Ning say that she couldn't die, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a firm expression: "Don't worry, Brother Xiao Ning, you helped me before, and now it's Xiao Fluttershy's turn to help you." ”
The current relationship between the two of them doesn't need to say anything hypocritical, Xiao Ning glanced at the horned scale snake that was no longer moving, and said, "Help me go over and take a look." ”
Ye Qingdie didn't know what Xiao Ning was going to do, but she had absolute trust in him, and helped Xiao Ning slowly walk to the corpse of the horned scale snake.
Xiao Ning hurt badly with almost every step he took, and the bones in his whole body seemed to be falling apart, so after taking these few steps, his body was already sweating, and Ye Qingdie felt distressed for a while.
Xiao Ning took out the short sword on his body and cut a big hole in the horned scale snake.
After the horned scale snake died, it lost the support of the true yuan, and the black scales on its body had gradually softened, and the short sword in Xiao Ning's hand was sharp enough, and it didn't take much effort, so he dug out the snake gall and crystal nucleus from it, and said with a smile: "The most precious thing on the horned scale snake is this snake gall and crystal nucleus, pay such a big price, you can't be injured in vain." ”
Ye Qingdie didn't smile, Xiao Ning became like this, and she didn't forget to teach her things, which moved her so much. Looking at Xiao Ning's pretending to be relaxed, I don't know why, she suddenly wanted to cry.
Xiao Ning put away the snake gall bladder and crystal nucleus, smiled, and said, "Alright, Fluttershy, the smell of blood here is too strong, and the smell of the flying cat has been gone for so long, we must leave quickly." It won't be long before this place becomes a paradise for many monsters. ”
Without the suppression of the flying electric cat and the horned scale snake in the purple light valley, the other demon beasts will soon be unscrupulous, and when they find that the two strong men are hanging, they will definitely come out to grab the territory, and if they don't leave at this time, it will be dangerous at that time.
Ye Qingdie helped Xiao Ning move forward slowly, seeing that he frowned with every step, and the big drops of sweat kept falling, he was so distressed that he couldn't do it, and he made a decision with a gritted tooth.
"Brother Xiao Ning, I'll carry you!" Ye Qingdie said with a firm expression.
Xiao Ning was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, he was now covered in injuries, but Ye Qingdie was no better, not to mention, he couldn't let a weak little girl carry himself.
But before the words came out, I heard her say again: "You carried me before, but this time I will carry you." Didn't Brother Xiao Ning say that he wanted to leave quickly?"
Seeing her insistence, Xiao Ning knew that he would definitely not be able to convince her, it was okay to change to usual, but now in this situation, I am afraid it will be really difficult to leave if the stalemate continues.
In desperation, Xiao Ning could only nod, "Okay, if you can't hold on, tell me." ”
As he spoke, he gently leaned over Ye Qingdie's back.
Xiao Ning is also very helpless, his current body, not to mention the slow speed, and he can't last long, and it is uncertain whether he can get out of the Purple Light Valley.
At present, I can only grieve Ye Qingdie first, and after leaving here, I will find a place to rest and recover my strength.
The mountain road is difficult, and it is quite difficult for Ye Qingdie to walk alone, let alone carrying Xiao Ning on his back. It didn't take long for her feet to wear out, and the wounds on her body were bleeding, but she kept gritting her teeth and holding on.
The small body is as fragile as a gust of wind that can blow away, but it is as strong as a man.
Looking at Ye Qingdie, who was swaying and could fall at any time, Xiao Ning was moved in his heart.
He wanted to open his mouth several times to ask Ye Qingdie to let him down, but Ye Qingdie's firm gaze made him unable to speak.
"Fluttershy, take a break. ”
Finally, it took twice as long to come to Gukou as he came, Xiao Ning couldn't help it after all, his eyes were full of pity and guilt.
He was supposed to protect this little girl, but in the end, it turned out to be like this. Although many things are not his will, some of them are also caused by his poor consideration.
Ye Qingdie seemed to sense Xiao Ning's guilt towards her, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Brother Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning is really hard, but she is very happy, I can finally help Brother Xiao Ning." ”
She was tired and panting, exhausted, but she still had a happy face, and she didn't seem to have the intention of putting Xiao Ning down.
Xiao Ning was silent, since he was reborn, he has taken good care of Ye Qingdie and cared for him, in order to make up for the regrets of his previous life, and also to make Ye Qingdie like him, which is all purposeful, and it is all within his ability.
But Ye Qingdie is selfless to him, and what he does to him is completely beyond his ability. In contrast, Xiao Ning felt that he was very dirty.
"Fluttershy, no matter what happens in the future, the two of us will live and die together. ”
Xiao Ning will not apologize to her, he will only spend his life to protect her, and spend his whole life to repay this feeling.
"Hmm!" Ye Qingdie smiled happily and happily, "Life and death depend on each other, never give up!"
At this moment, there was a sudden shake in front of him, and there was a figure not far away.
It was a woman in black, who looked only about thirty years old, and appeared in an extremely strange way, and even Xiao Ning didn't see it clearly.
Although Xiao Ning was talking to Ye Qingdie, his perception was released to the maximum, which was to prevent him from encountering demon beasts.
Several times, Ye Qingdie avoided danger under his guidance, so Ye Qingdie also knew some of his extraordinary.
But the appearance of this woman in black was without warning.
Xiao Ning's expression moved slightly, "This woman is very powerful!"
The woman in black is not very beautiful, but her words and deeds reveal a master's bearing.
Xiao Ning subconsciously thought that the person who came was related to Wu Shijun's family.
Since he was reborn, he has offended two people, and it is impossible for Lei Meng to have someone stand up for him, let alone know such a powerful person.
However, the other party's words made him a little inexplicable, and he couldn't help frowning.
"Rhetoric, a lot of tricks at a young age, right?" The other party's tone was indifferent, and he seemed to be very disdainful of Xiao Ning, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Being arranged like this, Xiao Ning was naturally angry, but the situation in front of him made it difficult for him to attack, and the other party's motives were also confusing.
Ye Qingdie's brows also furrowed slightly, she didn't like others to say bad things about her brother Xiao Ning.
However, she is a smart girl, the other party seems to have refuted what they just said, there is no obvious hostility, in this situation, she can't just make trouble for herself and Brother Xiao Ning.
Therefore, she put Xiao Ning down gently, took two steps forward and said, "Hello, senior, I don't know if you have any advice?"
Ye Qingdie was really weak, she walked all the way with Xiao Ning on her back, and she shed a lot of blood, her little face was bloodless, and she looked weak and not frightened.
It's just that at this moment, she straightened her waist, looked polite and generous, and there was no obvious fear.
The changes during this period of time have made her mentally mature a lot, and with Xiao Ning here, she can be stronger.
Xiao Ning didn't interject, just stood quietly behind Ye Qingdie, looking at this "little adult" with interest, wanting to see how she dealt with it, and at the same time secretly observing the other party's purpose and origin.
With Xiao Ning's experience, it can be seen from the momentum and some subtle movements of the woman in black that the opponent's strength may exceed the bronze level and be above the silver.
And her weird body method obviously won't be something that ordinary casual cultivators can practice, even if she doesn't have a background, she must have a teacher's inheritance.
"If you want to do it, the chance of escaping is less than one percent......" Xiao Ning's gaze became dark.
