CHAPTER XIV

Shaodian fed him a pill, and his thin white hands pressed his heart, and there was a warm heat transfer. Hu Jiang was looking at Shaodian intently, and suddenly felt that the part of his heart was heating up. When I looked down again, I saw that the ice crystals covered by my body were slowly receding.

"Shaodian, hee-hee. Hu Jiang smiled stupidly, and even his breathing was lightened. He exhaled a white mist from his mouth and exhaled the cold breath in his body. He quietly pinched the hem of Shaodian's clothes and asked cautiously, "Shao...... Pawn, you ...... Are you here to save me?"

Hu Jiang had just been thawed, and his body below his chest was still very stiff and unsuitable for movement.

Shaodian ripped the hem of his clothes from Hu Jiang's hand and did not answer. She stood up and asked, "Where is Xumo?"

Seeing that Shaodian asked Xumo as soon as he opened his mouth, Hujiang was a little unhappy.

"You're looking for ...... Find the big demon...... What do you blame?"

"Naturally, there is something important. Shaodian looked at him, Yubai's face was full of doubt. "Where is he?"

"Cut, I'm going to ...... If you knew...... Where is he, ...... There won't be a person waiting here to die. Hu Jiang turned his face and muttered quietly, his tone full of resentment.

"Ink ......" Shaodian crushed the ice crystals in his hand and rubbed them carefully. Her brow furrowed slightly, and she opened her palms to let the crushed ice slide down.

"The Cold Light Sword seems to be out of control. ”

"That sword doesn't ...... Is it often ...... Out of control?" Hu Jiang looked up at her suspiciously.

"This time is different. Shaodian walked under the tree and folded down an ice cube to take a closer look. "Who is the cold light protecting? Cold light that has always only killed...... It seems that someone has appeared. ”

Shaodian came to Tongshan on the order of the king of people this time because he observed the changes in the celestial phenomena, and something seemed to fall on Tongshan. The king of people was afraid that the gods would make some moves, so he asked her to come and take a look.

"The sword...... Not human...... Did the king give the preface to the monsters?"

"But neither the King of Men nor Xumo can control it. The Cold Light Sword will not yield to the Terrans, it has always endured. Now, though, it seems that it doesn't have to be patient. ”

Hujiang's body temperature gradually warmed up, he stood up and shook off the water droplets on his body, lifted the wet broken hair on his forehead, and his bright eyes were full of smiles.

"That's good, this big monster also has a frustrated day. ”

"......" Shaodian was speechless. Is the focus of Shizi's focus mistaken?

"The prince is coming to Tongshan, does King Anting know?" Shaodian's dark eyes glanced at him faintly.

"This ......" Hujiang was a little embarrassed. In the past few years, because he chased Shaodian tightly, he was educated by his father. Later, he often secretly ran to the roof of Shaodian at night to recite love poems, and was beaten by Xumo several times and his nose was blue and his face was swollen. King Anting couldn't get over his face, so he looked for someone to look at him, and he was not allowed to go near the astrological hall. But Hujiang had a lot of ghost ideas, so he locked those people in the ice storage of the palace and slipped out again.

It's just that Hujiang's luck has always been bad, and as soon as he climbed over the high wall of the astrology hall, he fell into the military formation and triggered the sword formation. In the past few years, the royal city has been heavily guarded, and obviously nothing has happened, but the people in the astrology hall are all busy. What Hu Jiang didn't know at that time was that in addition to the wall he often climbed, there were military formations at various corners and intersections in the astrology hall. Coincidentally, Hujiang happened to change the route, and if it hadn't been for Zhaohan's patrol to find him, he would probably have died in the battle.

At that time, he was carried out of the temple door in a daze with scars, and when his head was in chaos, he saw Shaodian standing on the bell tower.

The morning light was just right, and the autumn dew was slightly cool. Shaodian stood in the wind in white and looked at the entire royal city, her figure melted into a warm light, like a white bird flying under the sky.

When Hu Jiang barely opened his eyes, he saw Shaodian in the distance, his head was still foggy, but the corners of his mouth melted as if he had rubbed honey.

When King An Ting opened the sedan curtain, he saw Hujiang's intoxicated expression, his brows were tightly locked, and the amber beads in his hand stopped working, and he pinched them in his hands.

Since then, Hujiang has been completely grounded and not allowed to step out of the palace.

Hu Jiang, who asked Shaodian, could only smile awkwardly.

"My father...... It's not like he won't let me come out at all......" This made him feel weak, Shaodian looked at him and nodded, and did not debunk his meaning.

Shaodian looked at him and said: "The prince of the world should come to the astrology hall less in the future, there are trap formations everywhere in the hall that are not easy for others to detect, and your spiritual power is weak, so you can't deal with it." ”

"This ......" Hu Jiang smiled, as if she was caring about him.

"Before leaving, King Anting and I met me at the city gate, and he asked me to send a message to you. ”

"Huh?" Hu Jiang's eyes widened, "My father, he knows?"

"He said he'll be here tomorrow to get you ready. ”

"......" Hu Jiang blinked, stunned for a second before reacting, and gasped. Ready, ready to be beaten? It occurred to him that he had broken his father's favorite fan. He could already imagine how his father would look when he punished him.

Want to cry without tears......

"Let's go, follow me to find Xumo. Shaodian walked ahead and said.

"Is it okay?" Hu Jiang asked cautiously with starlight flashing in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn upward.

"Or you can get out on your own?"

...... "I'd better think you're caring about me."

"Shizi. Shaodian walked unhurriedly, and suddenly spoke. "Go back tomorrow, this is not for you. ”

"Why?" asked Hujiang.

"You're not fit to stay with us. Shaodian said lightly.

Hujiang didn't understand why, like his father, Shaodian wouldn't let him stay with them. They are all human, but they have strange personalities, and they are not some kind of flood beasts, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Besides, he wanted to stay with Shaodian so much......

Obviously, Hujiang has long forgotten that he was beaten down by Xumo twice in three days.

"But I love being with you. "Of course, you're the point.

Shaodian was silent for a moment and said, "Then let it be." ”

Hu Jiang looked at Shaodian's back and couldn't help but fall into thought. He's not stupid, and he'll feel that something isn't right with such a suddenness this time. Although Tongshan has long been out of the jurisdiction of the Terrans, the Terrans obviously did not take a mountain that had lost its mountain god in their eyes. This time, the astrological hall suddenly said that the mountain god had returned, and then the king of people hurriedly sent troops to come. They had never been so nervous when they had captured other mountain gods before.

A Tongshan mountain god, the king of people first asked Xumo to open the way, and then let Shaodian come, as well as his father. There are three people in the spiritual power ranking in this royal city, what is there here that the king of people must get?

Hu Jiang walked behind Shaodian, and couldn't help but think of those ordinary mountain ghosts locked in cages. They were silent, neither angry nor begging for mercy, they were undaunted, they were calm and talkative. This Tong Mountain is worthy of being the mountain range closest to the divine realm.

After entering the woods, Hujiang followed Shaodian around in the forest, and before he could walk long, he felt an unusual breath in the air. Even he felt the hot breath in the wind, and Shaodian must have already noticed it.

He couldn't help but walk a little faster and walked side by side with Shaodian, and he secretly looked at Shaodian's expression with his spare eyes. found that Shaodian looked calm, and it was no different. When he looked at it again, he crashed into Shaodian's dark eyes.

Shaodian asked, "What does the prince see me doing?"

Hu Jiang was a little embarrassed, he touched his head and whispered, "You...... Do you feel a little hot?"

"There are some, that's the breath of Xumo. Go faster, we're almost there. ”

"Oooh. Xu Mo was stunned.

The field of vision gradually widens, and the heat in the wind is getting higher and higher. The closer they got to Xumo, the more they noticed that the surrounding grass was faintly burning. Along the way, quite a few dead animals collapsed on the side of the road.

Xumo took a closer look, and almost didn't vomit. The flesh and blood of the animals had turned into blood and seeped into the ground, leaving only a pile of furs, and the stench of the corpses could be smelled as one approached.

He turned his head to look at Shaodian again, but Shaodian was still so calm, even if he saw it, he just looked away, without any discomfort.

Shaodian stopped suddenly, and Hujiang was caught off guard and almost collided.

"What's wrong?" he asked before he could react.

"It's here. ”

Hu Jiang followed Shaodian's line of sight. Rows of yellow charms covered the treetops in front of him, forming an arc-shaped area, and the hot wind surged, violently lifting the bushes and falling sharply. Even so, the spells remained firmly attached to the tree, unbroken or torn off. And Xumo sat in the center with his eyes closed, looking hideous.

"Preface. Shaodian stepped forward and softly called out to the young man who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

Xu Mo opened his eyes, and there was still a residual killing intent in his amber eyes.

In front of Xumo was a huge fireball, red flames boiling and surging, revealing a strange blue light in the dim skylight. The fireball was surrounded by dense spells, with the outer circle being an enchantment charm and the inner being a blasting charm. As soon as the flames were extinguished, he activated the blaster.

"You're early. Xumo didn't look at her, and closed his eyes. What he didn't know was that there was already a faint light texture on his face.

As soon as Shaodian came, she saw the dark lines on Xumo's face, and she stepped forward to block Hujiang's vision. Then take off the purse hanging from your waist, open it and pour out a pill, crush it carefully and knead it into a fire talisman.

Her movements were fast, and Xu Mo was concentrating on dealing with the Cold Light Sword at the moment, so she didn't notice it. Shaodian threw the fire talisman into Xumo's arms, and as soon as the charm touched the person's clothes, it immediately burned, and the white smoke went straight into the nose of Xumo. Xu Mo reacted immediately, he frowned, and after a while, blood and tears flowed from his eyes. He forcefully broke away his eyes and stared at Shaodian, his heavy eyes as if they were about to devour her into his belly.

"What are you doing!?" he asked, glaring at Shaodian fiercely, his voice low and hoarse.

"It's fine. Shaodian looked at Xumo and softly comforted him.

The biggest use of the Shoudannu is that it can be used as a material to repair his soul body when the ink is out of control, and his soul body is inherently unstable, so he often needs the Shoudannu to be by his side. But Xumo has always rejected the approach of Shoudannu and disdained her help. However, he is out of control now and is not in human form, this appearance cannot be seen by outsiders, the best way Shaodian can think of is to let Xumo no longer use spiritual power, only in this way can those dark lines no longer float on the surface. The matter of the soul body can only be talked about when I get back.

Shaodian squatted down and held Xumo's hand, and coaxed him softly: "You'll be fine." Her hand stroked the dark lines on his face, "I'll do the rest of the thing, and it will be fine soon." Don't repel drowsiness, you need to rest. ”

Hu Jiang stood behind them, watching them in such intimate contact, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart. When he saw Shaodian caressing Xumo, he wanted to rush forward and pull them away, but that was Shaodian, he couldn't do that.

When Shaodian turned around and walked towards him, Xumo had closed his eyes and leaned against the tree. The huge fireball slowly shrank, revealing what it was looking within.

The shrunken cold light sword hung beside a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, who was lying on her back on the ground, her clothes on her chest stained with spit blood, her eyes closed, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.

Hujiang told Shaodian how Jialan snatched the cold light sword and how Xumo chased and killed her.

"What now?" asked Hujiang.

The cold light sword was still emitting cold air, and it would not be long before it spread to the camp where they were stationed, not to mention that their people would die, and even those mountain ghosts might not be able to live.

"I'll control the cold first, and you go to the camp to inform them to transfer. Shaodian took out the enchantment talisman to exert spiritual power to minimize the harm caused by the cold air.

"Well, be careful, then. Hu Jiang looked at her worriedly, although he was reluctant to leave, he was still worried about the lives of those soldiers, and he knew that it was useless for him to stay here, it was better for her to be far away from Shaodian and take care of him.

"That'...... Then I'll go first. ”

Shaodian didn't answer him, concentrating on maintaining the barrier. After Hujiang walked away, Shaodian collected his spiritual power and stepped forward, reaching out to caress the enchantment created by the cold light. A fire ignited in her hand, easily turning the barrier into a hole.

Shaodian entered the enchantment, and the cold light sword sensed her invasion, and immediately reversed the blade of the sword and pointed directly at the door of Shaodian. Shaodian didn't come closer, and looked at it from a distance of ten steps from Jialan, confirming something.

The dissolved enchantment was about to be repaired, and Shaodian took one last glance at the sleepy Jialan and stepped out of the enchantment.

She stood beside Xumo and looked around, only to find that the trick that had been inseparable from Xumo was gone.
