Chapter Eighty-Eight: Spring and Autumn

The monitor lizard hissed in the crypt, and the crypt trembled, and the yellow sand fell with it. Jiang Shuiyao drew his sword and slashed away the fleshy palm that had been swung towards the little fat man, and shouted: "Run!" ”

The Liyuan Sword sparked a wisp of sparks between the monitor lizard's palms, waking up the three people who were completely frightened. The short-legged fox stomped hard, pulling the girl and the little fat man to the exit.

The three figures had just entered the passage, and the monitor lizard slapped his palms towards the ground, and the passage collapsed, and the entrance of the cave was instantly submerged by the yellow sand.

Xu felt that the three people who escaped were destined to be buried by the yellow sand along with the passage, and the monitor lizard was not in a hurry to chase after him at the moment, turning his head and spitting out the letter to stare at the river.

It is the same as the green-eyed python in the warm pool, I don't know how many years it has lived in the secret realm, and its cultivation is far more than that of the green-eyed python. Even when Cai Wei and the others passed by here at that time, they weighed it again and again, and finally decided to give up picking cactus fruits and not provoke this old monster.

The monitor lizard opened its mouth and rolled its tongue, and in its eyes, Jiang Shui Yao was no different from those flies and flying mosquitoes.

Jiang Shui Yao took a step back and poured most of his spiritual power into the Liyuan Sword, stabbing out with a sword.

With a sharp sound, the Liyuan Sword slashed at the tip of the monitor lizard's tongue, and Jiang Shui Yao only felt that the eardrum trembled, but he didn't hurt the monitor lizard at all.

Jiang Shuiyao shook his slightly numb arm, and even his tongue was so hard that he was invulnerable, so how to break the enemy?

The cave is more than ten zhang high, and the river is far away from turning around in it by relying on the eagle Xiangjue, and every time he dodges the long tongue that is as fast as a sharp arrow, the loess behind him is smashed out of one deep pit after another. After thinking about it, Jiang Shuiyao decided to take out the same routine as he had to deal with Shen Gongzi and set his eyes on the monitor lizard's eyes.

It's just that he just landed on the top of the monitor lizard's head, and the latter had already reacted extremely keenly to Jiang Shui Yao's intentions, and immediately rolled over, Jiang Shui Yao had no choice but to jump up again, clasping the rock on the crypt wall with one hand, and watching this big guy covered with black scale armor look for flaws again.

Roar! ~

The monitor lizard rolled on the ground, repeatedly curling its tongue and not swallowing Jiang Shui Yao into its belly, which made it very annoyed, and after the two of them stalemate for another stick of incense, the monitor lizard simply waved its tail and slapped it on the cave wall, intending to use sand to fill the vacant space, so that Jiang Shui Yao could not fly around in mid-air.

Jiang Shui Yao pulled out the cold moon pattern iron bow and shot several arrows one after another, the monitor lizard only pressed down on its eyelids, and the spiritual power arrow hit the monitor lizard's eyelid and disappeared instantly.

Seeing the quicksand sliding rapidly, covering the cactus tree that had been picked from the fruit for a short time, Jiang Shui Yao's heart was flooded with a chill, could it be that he really wanted to be buried alive in this mud and sand?

At this moment, a hole suddenly opened in the wall, and the short-legged fox poked out half of its head from it, and said urgently: "Come on!" ”

The short-legged fox race is not ranked among the fox clans in Qingqiu Prefecture, but the ability to dig tunnels is enough to crush any vein of the fox clan. It was only during the incense time when Jiang Shuiyao was fighting with the monitor lizard, the short-legged fox not only dug out the tunnel again and sent the little fat man and the girl out, but even found a place to dig a hole in the ground and dug into the crypt again.

The quicksand was rolling, and the newly dug tunnel was submerged in half of it in almost a moment. The short-legged fox is not discouraged, its limbs have long been turned into fox claws, and it is used to dig the soil again. Jiang Shuiyao, who sacrificed the bloody clothes, followed behind the short-legged fox, and the two of them were not fast or slow, but the mud and sand flew in front of them and rustled on the bloody clothes. From time to time, the monitor lizard in the cave stretched out its long tongue and burrowed into the entrance, just as he usually licked ants. In this regard, Jiang Shuiyao had to turn around from time to time and draw his sword to resist.

The Liyuan Sword was already steaming after being infused with countless fire attribute spiritual power by Jiang Shui Yao's full strength, although it was not enough to cut off the monitor lizard's tongue with one sword, this time it was barely able to pierce a small eye on it, making the monitor lizard suffer pain and withdraw its tongue.

The location of the crypt is only about 30 zhang away from the ground, and according to the speed of the short-legged fox in the past, it can escape in a maximum of ten breaths. But due to the monitor lizard's agitation in the crypt, the already soft yellow sand quickly collapsed, and he was also sturdy and had already planed back and forth, not only his physical strength was a little unable to keep up, but even his fingertips had more than doubled, and blood was constantly oozing.

Seeing that the short-legged fox was slowing down, Jiang Shuiyao gently patted him on the back, handed over a Huiling pill and said with relief: "It's hard work." ”

"This..."

He naturally recognized this thing, and could even tell at a glance that the quality of this Huiling Pill looked much better than what was sold on the market. The short-legged fox didn't swallow it directly after taking the elixir, and continued to bury his head in the pit after saying thank you.

His eyes blinked and blinked on his sweaty face, this person was really the devil who was rumored to cut off other people's ears and drink alcohol?

After nearly a stick of incense, the short-legged fox leaned forward, and the sun swayed into view. The little fat man and the girl couldn't help but applaud and cheer when they looked at the two who were soaring into the sky, but Jiang Shui Yao only saw the light of day for a few breaths, and the long tongue of the monitor lizard had already rushed out of the passage, firmly wrapped around his waist and then pulled suddenly, and the red-robed young man was dragged back to the soil again.

The cheers stopped abruptly, and the short-legged fox landed steadily, re-transformed into a human form, and sighed: "Yes, I saved a lonely." ”

Jiang Shui Yao rolled a few times in the monitor lizard's mouth and was swallowed into his stomach. He was covered in sticky saliva, the only thing thankful was that the monitor lizards were not poisonous, the slime only looked disgusting, but it didn't corrode himself.

What Jiang Shuiyao didn't expect was that although this monitor lizard looked only the size of a small mountain, the abdominal space was surprisingly large, and it faintly looked like a different picture of heaven and earth.

Jiang Shuiyao stood firm, leaving aside the sour smell and mucus of his stomach around him, there was still a glimmer of light in this darkness, and from a distance, it looked like someone was sitting cross-legged there.

"Little guy, was caught stealing cactus fruit?"

An old voice came from the faint light, Jiang Shui Yao was startled, and he probed with his senses, and found that there was indeed a famous old man sitting cross-legged.

Jiang Shui slowly approached, and found that the front end of the shimmer was covered with a curtain of water. Through the curtain, the mucus on his body was instantly cleaned, and the old man sat on a lotus platform, looking like he had been there for many years.

Jiang Shui Yao bowed respectfully.

The old man stretched out his hand, and four cactus fruits flew out of the river and fell obediently in his palm.

"It's finally bearing fruit."

The old man smiled with relief, and looked at the cactus fruits with a kind face as if he were looking at his own child for a long time, and then gently returned them to Jiang Shuiyao's hands, and then said: "Four pieces are enough, you can take it, and you can retreat here for a period of time these days!" Wait until you break through the Sword Monarch Mirror before going out. ”

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Shuiyao was a little misty by this sentence, and felt that he was swallowed by a monitor lizard, and it was completely deliberately arranged by someone a long time ago? But who has this means to reach the sky, can calculate that after entering the secret realm, he will inevitably go to the Fox Tooth Spring, and he will have the idea of picking cactus fruits?

Mangha?

Yu Jing?

The old man coughed lightly and said, "You and I are not enemies. ”

Jiang Shuiyao's expression was gloomy, and he suddenly felt that even if he arrived in Qingqiu Prefecture, even if he entered this secret realm, there was a pair of big hands behind him who were carefully pulling all this, and he was like a leaf of Qingping in the vastness, and he couldn't help himself.

The old man sighed, and stopped talking.

Jiang Shuiyao was like a child who had been arranged to study, sat down obediently, and retreated after taking four cactus fruits.

I thought that the old man who had been asked to the bottom of the matter was indispensable, with a faint sadness on his face.

Yu Jing, Yu Jing! The master has already said that if you want to cultivate the immortal path, you must first cultivate humanity. His last catastrophe is to return to the world and become a mortal who has tasted the eight sufferings of life before he can preach, but if you and I intervene like this, won't he really blame us after recovering his memory?

Master, when will you regain your memory?

The old man looked at his dry palm, and then looked up at the darkness. In his old but clear eyes, there seemed to be stars in this darkness, as if there were his continuous memories.

But master, we old fellows can survive and wait for you to finish this life, but can sentient beings wait?

Can he wait?

.......

The world where Jiang Shui Yao is located is silent, but on the fox tooth spring, the sky is thundering. Everyone in the secret realm thought that this was just an ordinary summer thunderstorm, who knew that this thunder and lightning had been entrenched on the fox tooth spring for two months, and even the Xuanhu woman who had told Jiang Shuiyao and others that the number of dominoes could determine the inheritance had come to this fox tooth spring more than once, but she had to leave after never seeing the clues.

In this regard, the five responsible persons sitting in the Qingqiu Prefecture City Lord's Mansion were a little unable to sit still, and it was not until Xuanhu Patriarch Xuan Jiu had the courage to consult the nine-tailed ancestor Ning Zhu'er, who was about to sit down, and got an answer that they didn't need to care about, that the five of them were completely at ease in their hearts. Xuan Jiu asked the Xuanhu woman in the secret realm to set up another supply point, and he completely stopped paying attention to the movements on the side of the Fox Tooth Spring.

Two months later, the thunderclouds on the fox tooth spring drifted away, and the river woke up from the meditation, full of brilliance, like a new life.

The old man said, "If you pass on another style of swordsmanship, you can go out." ”

Jiang Shuiyao laughed at himself: "It's really like I heard storytellers in Ping'an Town before, if you want to become a hero, you have to fall into a cave or something before you can have an adventure, right?" ”

The old man smiled helplessly, and raised his fingers, and a long sword was condensed in front of him: "This sword can cut the opportunity of the four seasons, can cut the qi of mountains and rivers, and the amount of play depends on your realm." ”

The old man jumped down from the lotus platform, his body was so fast that he gave birth to several afterimages, Jiang Shuiyao couldn't see how he came out of the sword, and how he put away his hand, only to feel that in the darkness it was like a crack had been torn open, and in that crack, there was grass sprouting, and there was yellow decay. There is an iron horse glacier into a dream, and there is a rice flower fragrance that says a good year. There is the beginning of life, and there is the curtain call of vicissitudes.

A glance for 10,000 years, but that's it.

Jiang Shuiyao's eyes were empty, and he muttered: "Falling leaves know autumn, a sword spring and autumn." ”

"Yes, yes, yes! This sword is called Spring and Autumn! ”

The old man suddenly burst out laughing, tears welling up in his eyes.

He began to cough violently, just coughing and coughing, coughing and bending over, coughing up tears.

That year, on the stage of the immortal general, the majestic man was dressed in white, and he was only in his twenties.

That year, he, Yu Jing, and the other four generals stood behind the man in white, dressed in iron halberds, and full of spirit.

That year, he was proud.

"I have a sword, but I can cut the spring and autumn!"
