Chapter 11 The Lonely Temple
On the second day, the sky was slightly bright, and the dawn was beginning to appear.
"Squeak-"
A crack peeked out of the closed door, and then a handsome, feminine, and aura face poked out.
After the rain, the sky is clear, and everything is renewed. The air is filled with humidity and the aroma of flowers and earth.
It's hard to imagine that such a clear sky was so "tragic and agitated" last night.
"When did the rain stop?"
The girl in Tsing Yi rubbed her sleepy eyes and stepped out of the room. She walked into the courtyard and looked around, but there was no one in sight.
"Damn Xu Sheng, he hasn't come back yet. Where did the death go? ”
The girl in Tsing Yi cursed angrily, and then stretched involuntarily.
Last night, she slept late, and did not close her eyes until the bad premonition had worn off; Then, I tossed and turned for a while before I really fell asleep.
Now, she has long put aside last night's worries and fears, and has returned to her former "heroic" and "cunning".
"Gollum!"
She also wanted to scold Xu Sheng a few more words, but her stomach screamed out angrily.
She was hungry.
Although she can go many days without eating, it would be better if there was good food.
"Where can I get something to eat?"
The girl in Tsing Yi made a difficulty, but she knew that there was never a grain of food in Zhiyang City now, and the rats were afraid that they would starve to death.
"What to do?"
The girl in Tsing Yi muttered, turned her head, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Pregnant.
Zhiyang is a mountain city, surrounded by almost all mountains. Although the front mountain was burned down, the back side was relatively unaffected, and the distance was still green.
In the dense mountains and forests, delicious wild things are naturally indispensable.
"I have to quickly find Xu Sheng and ask him to find some deer breast for Aunt Ben to taste."
The girl in Tsing Yi muttered to herself, and then no longer hesitated, and strode out of the courtyard.
Of course, she can beat the fawn, but such a bloody killing makes her dislike; Besides, she didn't know anything about cooking after the killing.
Dirty work and troublesome things, of course, let Xu Sheng do it.
"Ahem"
The man in the Taoist robe sat on the mountain rock, full of embarrassment. His face was a confluence of mud and blood and sweat; There was no complete piece of fabric left on his body; His long, most brilliant flowing hair has long since become filthy and filthy.
However, he didn't care, and he had a relieved and smug smile on his face.
After many days, he had finally accomplished something worthy of being a disciple of the Heavenly Master.
The death of more than 80,000 soldiers, the loss of the Shocking Sword, the taking of his sister as a hostage, all of these things have long overwhelmed him. And after last night's desperate struggle, his bleak situation finally seeped into a little light, and his dead heart finally regained a little self-confidence.
In this Kanto expedition, he was the most useful, and he achieved a little, even if he didn't lose it!
The general and Yan Yanzhi were not accompanying him, and the two were busy organizing and pacifying the army. The man in the robe looked back, but he didn't find two people in the surging "sea of people".
"It's too late to say goodbye, take care."
The man in the robe stood up, bowed his head lightly towards thousands of soldiers, and said in a deep voice.
He was leaving, and he couldn't wait, he didn't care about the anomaly of the general's sudden arrival here, and he didn't have time to listen to the battle situation ahead.
Even if the army is defeated like a mountain and the crisis is like the sea, he will go without hesitation! Because he decided that the safety of his junior sister was far more important than his own.
"Oops-"
Xu Sheng finally woke up, he slept from last night's wind and rain to today's Langlang clear sky, and he slept deeper from the middle of the night to the middle of the sun.
He slept for eight hours!
He hadn't been like this for a long time, and since he had successively obtained the "Spiritual Root", "Relic Seed", and "Nirvana Pill", his sleep time was getting shorter and shorter day by day, and basically, he only needed to squint for three moments and he would be completely sleepy. Then, because of Zhiyang's danger, his sleep seemed to be deprived, and he hadn't closed his eyes once for more than ten days.
He thought it would be hard for him to sleep anymore, but he didn't expect it......
"Are you too tired?"
Xu Sheng muttered to himself, staggered to his feet, and stretched involuntarily.
At this time, the good sunshine is passing through the broken temple gate, unscrupulously "squeezing" the temple. Xu Sheng looked back at the statue and felt unusually majestic in a trance.
"Whether you are ancient or modern, good or evil, thank you for being with us last night."
Xu Sheng took a few steps back, took the whole picture of the idol into his eyes, and said softly.
"Whew-whew-"
"What's going on?"
The sudden sound made Xu Sheng's heart tremble. The idol made a sound?!
No, it's not.
Xu Sheng's spirit instantly concentrated, and the "invisible secret power" flowed and condensed in his ears and eyes.
Behind the idol, something squirms!
"Damn, what's that?"
Xu Sheng was extremely nervous, and one hand was fiercely buckled on the Shocking Sword, as far as he was concerned, it was normal for him to encounter anything when something happened.
"You come out on your own."
Xu Sheng shouted, his fingers "gurgling" from excessive force. The "invisible secret power" dissipated from the ears and eyes, and gathered towards the arms and legs.
He was ready to fight, and if he couldn't beat it, he would run as soon as possible.
"Come out quickly!"
Xu Sheng drank again, his strength was more condensed, and his heart was pounding.
"Whew-whew-"
The sound was the same as before, Xu Sheng waited for a while, and the thing had no intention of coming out at all.
"Damn it!"
Xu Sheng cursed, the long sword turned around, straight forward, he decided, since you don't come out, I'll go and see.
One step, two steps, three steps.
"Knock-knock-knock-"
No matter how careful you are with your boots on the floor, you can't make a sound.
Xu Sheng held his breath and walked around to the back of the idol.
"Yikes!"
He shouted, the blade of his sword piercing.
"Huh!?"
The blade of the sword turned sharply, and the breath he was carrying instantly dissipated, and his heart fell steadily from mid-air to the bottom.
He saw a man wrapped in a pile of rags, curled up, sleeping unusually sweetly.
Zhiyang, there are still people who haven't left!
"This homeless man can sleep better than me." Xu Sheng smiled awkwardly, but the smile quickly froze.
When did this "homeless man" appear here? Last night, when he was looking at the statue, he walked around the whole temple by the way, and there was no one else.
If this "homeless man" came after he fell asleep, it doesn't make sense, after all, this place is too deserted, even if it is to hide from the rain, Xu Sheng has been stormy for a while before he falls asleep, this "homeless man" can't always look for shelter in the rain, right? The architecture of Zhiyang has not yet fallen to that extent. No matter where the "homeless man" is hiding, just stay, what are you doing in this broken temple?
Even if he found it after the rain stopped, when he pushed open the temple door and saw a guy with a long sword lying in it, he didn't care at all? Walked to the back in a daze and slept until noon?
Unreasonable, unreasonable.
Xu Sheng's sword pointed at the "tramp" again, and the "invisible secret power" re-condensed and became more condensed.
"Who the hell are you? Hurry up and stand up for me. ”
Xu Sheng shouted, his voice was mixed with cultivation, and his throat shook out for ten miles!
"Ahh
The man seemed to be greatly frightened, and a carp jumped up, crawled against the corner of the wall, and straightened up a little.
"You... You... You... Who are you? Why am I here? ”
The man stared at Xu Sheng, his eyes wandering back and forth on the Shocking Sword, and it could be seen that he was very scared, his legs and stomach were spinning, and he couldn't even speak.
"What are you talking about?"
Xu Sheng was also stunned, how did he think that the person in front of him was more nervous than him, and he knew nothing more than him.
"Huh!? What are you talking about? What are you going to do with the murder weapon? ”
The man didn't seem to hear Xu Sheng's words at all, and he was panicked to himself, and then, he lowered his head suddenly, and Xu Sheng quickly followed.
Belch!
A cloudy yellow liquid flowed out of his calf and followed the terrain to Xu Sheng's feet.
"Bastard!"
Xu Sheng scolded, with more ferocity in his eyes. When the man saw it, he hurriedly pressed his crotch and clamped his legs with a "whoosh".
