Section 29 Peeling
Rummaging through the rags he picked up, Ye Chao found that the leaves that fell with him became a life-saving straw at this time, which could be used as a breathing barrier and as food to satisfy hunger when he was hungry and thirsty. The back no longer felt pain at this time, Ye Chao just covered his head forward at this time, but what was even more terrifying was that the exposed skin did not know the appropriate way to flood with continuous blisters, once it was broken, the blisters flowed out of yellow liquid, and new blisters arose immediately when they flowed to the place where there were no blisters.
Ye Chao was dizzy and swollen at this time, his throat was like a fire, and swallowing leaves was like swallowing charcoal, and he was miserable. His chest was tight, and his whole breath sounded like pulling a bellows, Ye Chao knew that this was caused by the serious damage to his respiratory system, and he didn't know how long he could hold on.
Suddenly, the sky swirled, Ye Chao planted forward, and at the same time, a mouthful of blood finally couldn't hold back and splashed out of his mouth, the blood fell on the ground and actually made a sizzling sound, and there was a burst of white smoke, Ye Chao felt in a semi-dying state that when he was about to fall, his hand seemed to have helped something, and he forcibly lifted his heart, opened his half-closed eyes, and found that there was actually a stone tablet in front of him, and now the whole person seemed to be attached to the stone tablet, which prevented Ye Chao from lying down in the mud again, And the stone tablet was sprinkled with the blood that Ye Chao had just spurted, and the dark red was extremely hideous.
However, unchanged is what Ye Chao is most afraid of at this time, along the way, except for the mud under his feet and the yellow clouds above his head, he didn't find anything at all, and the sudden appearance of a stone tablet made Ye Chao, who was about to give up, have an idea, and this thought also made Ye Chao cheer up a little at once. The black stele is not very tall as a whole, part of it is buried in mud, and the part on the mud floor is also mottled and damaged, and you can only vaguely see that there are four big characters on it, "ancient and innocent".
"Is it a ruin?" Ye Chao seemed to see hope, Ye Chao knew that his first task now was to be able to find a place to rest, he couldn't hold on for long, and if he passed out again, he didn't know if he could wake up next time. Ye Chao knew very well that the air in this place was toxic and corrosive, and that he could hold on for so long should be related to the "Nine Evils" exercises he had cultivated, which made him have some resistance to toxicity, but if the corrosion problem was not solved, he still had no way to stay in this environment for a long time, so it would be even more difficult to find a way out.
This stele brought hope to Ye Chao, no matter how long this stele existed, it has not turned into mud until now, which means that this stone has a certain anti-corrosion performance, so maybe you can find a shelter for yourself if you find a building or even a mining place for this stone.
Ye Chao cheered up and walked around the stone stele, looked carefully, and found that some gravel of the same material as the stone stele was found in the mud and extended in one direction, or it should have been a stone-paved road.
Without any choice or hesitation, Ye Chao followed the direction of these gravels, stumbling, Ye Chao felt that he had gone up for a while, and then began to turn a corner. Suddenly, Ye Chao tripped over something under his feet, Ye Chao could no longer maintain his balance, and his body fell heavily, a feeling different from the previous fall and falling into the mud, Ye Chao felt his forehead hit the hard object, although it hurt, and even Ye Chao felt a warm feeling on his forehead flowing down, but it also made Ye Chao not faint all of a sudden.
Suddenly, Ye Chao sensed that something was wrong, took down the towel that covered the filth of his mouth and nose, and breathed greedily, as if a drowning person was being lifted up from under the water. Breathing was mixed with panting and coughing, but Ye Chao didn't stop taking a deep breath, and there was a knife-like pain in his chest, Ye Chao didn't care about it, and began to use his hands and feet to continue to crawl forward, and in the process of crawling, Ye Chao found that the ground was no longer yellow mud, but when it was replaced, there were large and small black stone floors, and some of the fractures were also black mud. Even if his finger was cut, Ye Chao wanted to crawl forward for a little more distance, until Ye Chao couldn't even lift his fingers, and then he passed out again.
When Ye Chao woke up again, he was lying motionless on the stone slab, and the mood of surviving under high pressure could finally slowly calm down, this feeling of being on the verge of death was really worse than death. I don't know how long it took, Ye Chao moved his body, sat up with difficulty, and found himself in a place that looked like a stone platform, the stone platform was about a circle of about fifty meters in diameter, and there were some black stone pillars scattered among them, the stone pillars were not high, about two meters, irregular divisions. Yellow gas is visible to the naked eye on the outside of the stone platform, and as soon as the yellow gas enters the range of the stone platform, it will slowly fade and finally become invisible.
"Could it be a formation, and it also has a purification function?" Ye Chao thought in his heart.
The problem of breathing is temporarily solved, but there is obviously no edible food on this stone platform, as for the freshwater Ye Chao found that the stone slab on the stone platform is wet, it should be formed by water vapor condensation, and it is estimated that licking the stone slab can replenish a little water. Ye Chao endured the pain in his fingers and moved the package he picked up to his side. I just took a quick look at it before, and set off immediately after finding the necessary things, but now I can finally take stock and make some preparations for the subsequent survival!
After a while, a small black pot that could not be used, a set of "Huanyu Collection" was still missing, some dry food wrapped in bamboo leaves, and some yellowed leaves, and finally a pile of rags remained.
"Jia Fatzi, I don't know if it's dead or alive?" Ye Chao looked down at these things in front of him, the dry food lasted for a month at most. Even if Fat Jia dies, he will not be with him for long.
"What if he lives? No, Lao Tzu wants to find him to ask for an account! Ye Chao scolded unwillingly.
Although the desire to survive is still there, the problem is that this place can only be regarded as a shelter at best, and no one knows how long this shelter can shelter them. Therefore, he must use this shelter as a starting point to explore his surroundings and see if he can find a way out.
"Then if you go out, the food will be doubled, that is, it will last for about two weeks at most!" As he spoke, Ye Chao used a piece of gravel to draw a white line on the stone slab.
"Problem two, if you want to get out, you have to be able to stay in the corrosive air for a longer time!" Ye Chao continued to talk to himself and drew a second white line.
"Then the solution to the problem still falls on the "Nine Evils" that you cultivate, according to what is said in the book, the evil qi can be used as a resource for cultivating this exercise, and this place should obviously be under the cliff of death, and the dead qi should also be counted as a kind of evil qi, as long as it can be restored to the exposed armor, it can resist a part of the corrosive gas, then you can go further and find the way out!" Ye Chao was thinking to himself.
But Ye Chao is also very clear that now the only remaining one in his body that is entrenched in the position of the Jizhong acupoint is no longer as black and dark as in the past, deep and bright, but there is a kind of dead ash spot on it, if it is not for the occasional blue light that appears in the evil pill will eliminate some dead ash spots, it is estimated that this evil pill is completely dead and invalid at this moment.
What's even more painful is that once you start to practice according to the exercises, the feeling of a knife cutting through the flesh in the meridians is painful, and it is difficult to persist in cultivation.
"Fuck, cultivation hurts to death, and if you don't cultivate, you wait for death! Lao Tzu is a big man, he would rather die of pain than wait for death to do nothing!! Ye Chao secretly swore in his heart.
However, Ye Chao did not start cultivating impulsively immediately, but first ate a little dry food, licked a few stone slabs, and checked his body and found that some blisters had dried up, indicating that in the absence of continuous gas corrosion, his body's recovery mechanism was slowly working, but the situation in his back could not be detected, but the burning pain from time to time made Ye Chao feel relieved. Just lie face down and rest.
After recovering his strength a little, Ye Chao began his own cultivation plan, first Ye Chao walked to the edge of the stone platform, walked out slowly, as soon as he went out, there was a burning pain on his body, and at the same time, the blisters on the skin that had been shriveled began to swell up at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, Ye Chao knew that he couldn't hold on for too long, so he quickly sat cross-legged in the muddy ground and ran the "Nine Evils" exercises. Ye Chao bit the towel that had been formed into a hard lump fiercely, and little by little guided the evil qi towards the position of the evil pill, when the first wisp of evil qi entered the evil pill, the originally suspended evil pill seemed to move slightly as if it was about to rotate, but a suffocating breath made Ye Chao's chest as if a bomb had been ignited, and it burst open, and a mouthful of blood sprayed directly on the towel in Ye Chao's mouth, and the excess blood flowed out of Ye Chao's nasal cavity fiercely, Ye Chao was shocked suddenly, and the whole person turned backwards, A tumbling person entered the range of the stone platform again, and the contact between his back and the stone platform made Ye Chao's whole body shiver with severe pain, and his hands trembled and let him sit up cross-legged again.
"Feasible!" Although the first common sense made Ye Chao miserable, but at the same time, it also proved that the "Nine Evils" exercises can indeed be cultivated in such a Jedi, so it depends on whether he can withstand the pain brought by cultivation and whether the speed of his cultivation can catch up with the speed of his material consumption.
With the first attempt, Ye Chao exposed half of his position to the corrosive air for the second time, and left half of the position in the stone platform, running the exercise again, it was indeed feasible, although the number of evil qi through the traction of the exercise was not much, but the rebound caused at the same time was not as violent as the first time, with the operation of the exercise, Ye Chao suddenly trembled, and the evil pill in the acupoint began to rotate slowly, as the evil pill rotated, a gray-white air flow was thrown out by the evil pill, and slowly oozing out with Ye Chao's body, It flows into the interior space of the stone platform.
Ye Chao seized all the time to cultivate, and when the evil pill in the middle of the acupoint finally returned to its original appearance, Ye Chao knew that he had to walk out of the stone platform again and try to condense the second evil pill.
According to the exercises, the Sha Dan can be condensed in any acupuncture point in the body at will, but this time Ye Chao plans to take the Jizhong acupoint as the up, downward, and go down in a straight line along the acupoints of the human body, which is divided into the atrium, dovetail, Juque, upper navel, atrium, Jianli, lower navel, water, Shenque, Yinjiao, Qihai, Shimen, Guan Yuan, Zhongji, and Qugu. According to Ye Chao's estimation, as long as half of these acupuncture points are condensed, he may be able to return to his previous state, once all the acupoints are condensed with the evil pill, then he should be able to reach the state of the evil armor in the exercises, and he can start to go out to find a way out of the Jedi.
"The atrium is a success!" When the new Sha Dan and the Jizhong Acupoint Sha Dan began to echo each other, Ye Chao dragged his tired body back to the stone platform, in addition to the exhaustion and pain, what was even more miserable was that most of the blisters on those bare skin had festered, and even the whole piece of skin began to peel off, and in some places the pink tender flesh was directly seen, and some hung on Ye Chao's body before it completely fell off. As if being skinned, Ye Chao could only endure the pain, took out those collected rags and slightly covered the tender flesh that had been completely exposed, and put the skin that had not completely fallen off back in place, hoping to hold on for a while longer.
