Chapter 21: Escape
Early in the morning of the second day, Wu Xiao sat on the throne of the main hall, holding the book scroll that Long Fan dropped last night, and said to Long Pianpian and Wang Yiwei who were standing under the stage: "Yesterday, the deity received a letter from the seventh junior sister Feige, which said that Long Chen obtained the ancient divine sword "Dragon Soul Sword" in Xiaoyao Village; Last night, Long Fan sneaked into the library in the valley to steal this historical book that recorded the dragon soul sword, but fortunately, he did not succeed in stealing it; The deity took a look at the contents and learned the secret in the Dragon Soul Sword. ”
After hearing this, Long Pianpian asked curiously, "Valley Lord, is the Dragon Soul Sword really as powerful as the legend says?" ”
Wu Xiao stood up and paced behind his back on the steps while explaining: "Dragon Dust did not display the power of the Dragon Soul Sword, it is recorded in the annals that the power of the Soul Sword is controlled by the Sword Spirit, and it seems that what Dragon Dust got should be a death sword." ”
Wang Yi frowned, and asked suspiciously: "How can it be a dead sword, isn't the legendary sword spirit immortal?" ”
Wu Xiao continued: "Seventh Senior Sister said that Long Ling'er saw that when Long Chen's sword was drawn for the first time, the sky showed a vision, and the sword spirit should still be in the sword at that time, but later for some reason, the sword spirit disappeared. ”
Wang Yi touched his beard and guessed, "Could it be that the sword spirit escaped from the sword body?" ”
"If it's really as you said, then Long Fan will definitely find a way to retrieve the sword spirit in the next step, and use the dragon soul sword to deal with the deity, and the deity must not let him succeed!" Wu Xiao clenched his fists and gnashed his teeth in disgust.
In the cave at the top of the peak, the charcoal in the two rows of brazier racks has long since burned out. At this time, the black hand in the cave could not see the five fingers.
After the charcoal fire was extinguished, it became very cold inside the cave. Long Chen didn't know when he took off his coat to the woman in white. In the darkness, the woman in white was dressed in the cloak of dragon dust, clinging to the rock wall, curling up and trembling.
The peak is at a high altitude, the oxygen is thin, and the entrance of the cave is sealed with stones, at this time the oxygen in the cave has been exhausted, and the dragon dust has severe symptoms of hypoxia.
Long Chen, dressed in a white inner coat, was lying next to the woman in white on all fours, his eyes were dilated, panting, and he whispered: "Girl...... We're probably going to die here......"
"Childe...... What is your name? The woman in white said in a trembling voice.
"Call the dragon dust ...... below"
"Dragon Dust...... The little woman remembered...... In this life, you are trapped because of the little woman...... The little woman owes you nothing in this life...... If you are still a woman in the next life, you will make a promise with your body...... Serve the dragon prince left and right ......"
The woman in white said, like a statue, fell to the ground, and gradually closed her eyes.
Longchen recalled the bits and pieces of the process of getting along with the woman in white: when they first met, she was lying on her side on the ground, with a lonely and helpless look; When she picked her up, she instantly revealed a shy and timid attitude; When she went down the mountain, she snuggled up in her arms and looked like a bird...... Longchen thought about it and slowly closed his eyes.
Longchen thought that he would sleep here with the woman in white, but at this time, the mountain suddenly shook, and with a boom, the stone pile that sealed the entrance of the cave collapsed instantly, and the sunlight came in, and the cave instantly lit up.
As the air flowed in, oxygen gradually became available in the cave. Suddenly, Longchen's eyelashes twitched a few times, and then his eyes slowly opened.
Longchen looked around and saw that there was light in the cave, so he hurriedly looked at the entrance of the cave and found that the pile of stones that sealed the entrance of the cave had collapsed. He was shocked, and quickly propped himself up and sat up.
He turned his face to look at the woman in white beside him, found that she was still lying on the ground, and hurriedly took her into his arms.
Longchen hugged the woman in white tightly, using the temperature of his body to warm her. Gradually, the stiff body of the woman in white became soft and warm, and her pale face became ruddy.
The woman in white slowly woke up, opened her eyes slightly, and asked weakly, "Young Master Long, are we in the underworld?" ”
When Longchen saw the woman in white wake up, he immediately let go of his arms, looked at her and said excitedly: "Girl, this is not the underworld, we are still alive!" ”
The woman in white looked dazed, looked around, found that she was still in the cave, and said incredulously: "None of us are dead...... How is the hole opened? ”
"I don't know...... Don't think about it, let's go down the mountain quickly, I'm going to take you to your family! Long Chen said, picked up Bai Xueji, and walked slowly outside the cave.
Longchen led the woman in white to the edge of the cliff outside the cave, and the mountain wind blew their robes and disrupted their green silk. Longchen looked down at the bottom of the mountain and said to the woman in white, "Girl, you close your eyes, I'll take you down." ”
The woman in white looked at Longchen in confusion, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to trust Longchen and closed her eyes. Longchen hugged her willow waist, and then jumped forward, falling down the cliff at a high speed.
The woman in white hugged the dragon dust tightly, and the two of them were like a pair of fairy couples descending from the sky, and they came to the bottom of the cliff after a while.
Longchen took the woman in white through the thorns everywhere, waded through the torrent of streams, and climbed over piles of rocks, sometimes the two supported each other, sometimes chased laughter, and sometimes sat down to talk about life...... They didn't like to laugh in the past, but they became active on the road and opened their hearts to each other.
Eventually, the two made their way to the city in the evening. Hand in hand, they stepped into the city gates and strolled through the bustling night market. When they walked to a notice wall, Longchen looked at a portrait on it, and his eyes lit up, and it turned out that the portrait was painted with the woman in white beside him......
