Chapter 457: There is a reasonable reason for existing
Under the burning of the eternal fire, the red spider had lost five of its eight spear legs, which made it unexpected, and for a moment it screamed and pierced Luo Yan's front (xiōng) with the other three legs at the same time.
Qingyu saw that it regarded Luo Yan as an attack target, and immediately raised his hand and shook it, and the red cherry blossom whip turned into a spirit snake and flew out, binding the three giant feet that stretched out together.
Seeing that the two of them had blocked the spider's attack, Mu Yan'er immediately flew into the air, and then used the innate halberd to aim at the skeleton pattern on its back from top to bottom, and stabbed it down fiercely.
The red spider, which was in passivity, looked at the flame bird standing next to it and was about to make a move, but at this time it could no longer distinguish its feet to defend against the flame bird.
In a panic, it had no choice but to release a divine sense, attacking the Flame Bird's sea of consciousness and slowing down the opponent's speed.
It had already seen that two of the three people who suddenly appeared should have reached the early stage of Mahayana, and if they continued to fight against them, they would probably really fall here.
After analyzing the situation in front of him, the swamp demon cultivator in the early stage of Mahayana also had to choose to escape.
It then severed its legs and retreated halfway through its (shēn) body, fleeing deeper into the swamp at a terrible cost.
Luo Yan and the three of them watched it leave and didn't chase it, in fact, they just wanted the other party to retreat so that they could pass through this area smoothly, and they didn't mean to kill it all.
However, this time, the strength of the three of them was still shocked, and it believed that the strength of any of them was not below itself.
It also recognized Luo Yan and the others as the three people they had met on the Snow Peak before, and was glad that there was no conflict between the two sides at that time.
Qingyu and Mu Yan'er took back the magic weapon and came to Luo Yan's side, preparing to leave.
Seeing that they had no intentions for themselves, the Flaming Bird took on the form of a woman and stepped forward to salute in thanks.
After Luo Yan asked her to excuse herself, she looked at the other person in the spider silk, raised her hand and emitted a golden light, turning the spider silk away and releasing the person inside.
This person is a Terran monk, and his original appearance is no longer there, and now he can only show his true face.
Looking at his pale face, Luo Yan said: "There has just been a big battle here, and the spatial fluctuations will soon attract other demon beasts to check, whether you stay to recover your true qi or leave with me in a boat, or you still have to find your allies, please decide as soon as possible." ”
After speaking, he took out the dragon bird flying boat and boarded it with Qingyu and Mu Yan'er.
The flame bird and the young man who had just been rescued glanced at each other, and also boarded Luo Yan's spirit boat.
Subsequently, the puppet drove the spirit boat forward with all its might, and Luo Yan arranged the two people of the Killing Alliance to recover their true qi on the deck.
Qingyu and Mu Yan'er stood not far away, and the second daughter couldn't believe them.
An hour later, the Flame Bird's injuries were no longer serious, and Qi (shēn) said to Luo Yan: "In Xia Jiuling, I heard what Daoist friends said just now, I must have already known our (shēn) share, why do you still need to help?"
Luo Yan smiled and said: "No matter what (shēn) it is, it is just a means to survive in this cultivation realm, and what it represents is only the past, the killing alliance is half good and half evil, I can't make an accurate evaluation, I can only say that there is a reasonable reason for its existence." ”
Jiu Ling chuckled and said, "Half good and half evil, this evaluation is good, we also have suffering!"
Luo Yan said: "The Nine Spirit Fairy doesn't have to explain too much about the alliance
Affairs, as long as you don't harm the three of us during the next period of time, we are the same lineup of Taoist friends. ”
After hearing this, Jiu Ling immediately pointed to the sky and swore with a Dao heart.
Afterwards, she asked the black-robed young monk next to her to swear the same with his Dao heart that if he had malicious intentions towards Luo Yan and the three of them in the future, he would definitely die (shēn).
Luo Yan saw that both of them had sworn an oath, and his worries weakened a little, as the saying goes: "You can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people." ”
Luo Yan decided to save them, and when he saw that the red spider was almost consumed, it could be said that it was the best time to make a move.
If he kills these two and then concentrates on himself, it will inevitably be a fierce battle.
Although Qingyu and Mu Yan'er have broken through to the early stage of Mahayana, they have just broken through after all, and the realm is still a little unstable, and it is difficult to say what the specific combat power is, so it is better to be careful.
Second, he also wants to make him owe himself a person (qíng) for saving these two people, and he is now more and more interested in the killing alliance.
While the spirit boat was speeding, Luo Yan said: "Now that we have five of us, I suggest that we can divide into two groups and take turns to guard the deck to prevent the attack of demon beasts, and rotate every ten days, so that everyone can have time to rest, and the true qi can be more abundant when on duty, what do you think?"
The four of them all thought that this was good, so Qingyu and Mu Yan'er stood on the deck first, one in the bow and one in the stern.
Luo Yan and Jiu Ling, the fair-skinned young monk, came to the cabin together, and Luo Yan opened two more rooms for the two of them to live in temporarily.
After that, he closed his eyes and rested in the middle of the ship's hall.
After Jiu Ling entered his room, he released his divine sense to carefully check the situation inside, and found that there was nothing wrong, so he sat down on the stone (chuáng) with confidence.
Before she could close her eyes, she heard someone knocking on the door, so she immediately raised her vigilance, secretly raised her true anger, and pulled the spirit treasure in her sleeve, and then opened the door.
Seeing that the person who came was a fair-skinned young monk, he relaxed and asked, "Chengpu Daoyou, is there anything wrong with you?"
The fair-skinned young monk said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask the Nine Spirits Daoist, what are your plans for what is happening in front of you (qíng)?"
Jiu Ling let him into the room and asked, "Then Chengpu Daoyou has already planned it, why don't you tell me about it?"
The fair-skinned young man said: "Duan Hu and the three of them abandoned us to leave at the moment of crisis, even if such an ally arrives in Ulan City, can we still cooperate with them with confidence?"
"Then with the meaning of Daoyou, we are going to give up this mission?" Jiu Ling asked rhetorically.
"This is not necessarily, the mission does not require the five of us to complete it together, if you agree, we can tell these three people on the ship about this mission, I think their cultivation is no worse than those three, after arriving in Ulan City, the five of us will go together, and share half of their benefits after completion, what do you think?" Cheng Pu said his plan.
"Then what if you meet Duan Hu and them?"
"If they really meet, it's a big deal to fight a vicious battle, even if the alliance knows about their fall and asks the reason for their fall, we can also say that it is caused by encountering a strong enemy in the execution of the mission. ”
"Will these three agree to it? I don't think they look like greedy lords?"
"Try it, anyway, they have already seen you and me, and they know me
so it doesn't hurt to tell them about the task, it's better to go, and we'll make another plan if we don't go. ”
Jiu Ling was silent for a while, and then replied, "I think it's better to wait until we get to Ulan City, and now it's the most important thing to go through this swamp." ”
Seeing that she did not make a clear statement, the fair-skinned young monk had no choice but to give up.
After closing the door again, Jiu Ling recalled that Qingyu had trapped the spider's three long-legged (qíng) shapes with a long whip, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously. I said to myself in my heart: "People are a little ugly, but their actions are handsome." ”
She suddenly felt that there was something hair on her face, and she hurriedly shook her head, mobilized her true qi to get rid of the distracting thoughts in her heart, and closed her eyes and breathed.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was Luo Yan's turn to be on duty, and the three of them came outside to replace Qingyu and them.
When Jiu Ling passed by Qingyu (shēn), who was disguised as a man, her heart beat faster inexplicably, and she hurriedly nodded to her and walked briskly past, guarding the bow of the boat with Cheng Pu.
Luo Yan came to the stern of the boat alone, looking at the retreating clouds, occasionally there was a chirp or roar of a vicious beast, and from time to time a demon beast of different sizes rushed out of the brown mist, silent.
He restrained his breath, and as long as the evil beasts didn't attack the spirit boat, he wouldn't provoke them.
The nine spirits and Cheng Pu on the bow of the ship each stood on one side, staring ahead, and they didn't seem to communicate, only when the evil beast approached, they would take care of each other and shoot to kill it.
Under the control of the puppet (cāo), the spirit boat has been flying steadily, and when it is the second shift ten days later, the nine spirits say:
"Chengpu Daoyou, I still want to stay on the deck for a while, you go back and rest first. ”
Cheng Pu glanced at her, nodded and went back to the cabin.
Standing alone with Qingyu at the bow of the boat, Jiu Ling's heart was flustered for a while, his cheeks were crimson, and he didn't know how to break the silent scene.
Qingyu saw that her face was wrong, and asked kindly: "Nine Spirit Daoist Friend's face is flushed, is there something wrong with cultivation?"
Seeing her asking, Jiu Ling hurriedly shook his head and replied, "No, no, I just suddenly felt a little unwell, I should take a rest and be fine." ”
With that, she fled back to the cabin and sat down on her own stone (chuáng) for a long time before she calmed down.
Luo Yan, who was pranayama in the boat hall, saw her running back from the bow of the boat with peach blossoms on her face, and a smile appeared on her face, and then she came to the bow of the boat, looked at Qingyu with a strange look, and then said with a smile:
"Senior Brother Yu, you still look (tǐng) attractive!"
Qingyu didn't know how to deal with his headless words for a while, glared at him and said, "What you said is headless and brainless, if you are not tired, come and guard, and I will go to rest again?"
Luo Yan laughed and said mysteriously: "It doesn't matter if Senior Brother Yu doesn't know now, he will understand in the future." ”
Then, the two stood together in the bow of the boat, looking at the green moss ahead.
From afar, on the calm water, it is full of greenery, like a huge lawn, and there is no edge in sight.
Luo Yan pointed to the moss and said, "It's not easy to form such a huge pool in this swampy place, it seems that we are going to fly across the sea again." ”
Qingyu followed his eyes, the water surface under the mist seemed so calm, and the spirit boat swept over it like a bird.
Suddenly, her brows furrowed and said, "It's not good, there is danger ahead, stop quickly." ”
