Volume II, Chapter 121 (2) Long Knife
The people on the burning sea narrowed their eyes slightly, and then clasped their hands in their sleeves, quietly waiting for Xiao Jiaolong's answer.
Ling Yun's face was uncertain, and her eyes were staring at Chen Sheng, who was restrained, and the long sword that was obviously restraining its killing power.
A big python that is no more than the middle stage of Jindan, although it will be more difficult to kill than ordinary monks, it will not have such constraints, so that Chen Sheng and the others cannot use their strength.
So the key now is this Jiaolong Lingyun, to see if he can be willing to give up his life to fight to the death with the big python that is only older and stronger, and then Chen Sheng will take action on the side.
The people on the burning sea sneered, "I think that a giant python with a longevity is approaching and does not have much dragon bloodline in his body, is it not worth the essence and blood cultivation of your destined true dragon in the sea?"
Lingyun was silent, and there were indeed some such considerations in her heart. It's just that I didn't expect that there was nothing to hide in front of this person.
The man on the burning sea said: "If you are careful, that kid will not be able to see it?" It's just that for some reason, he is very tolerant of you, a beast, even if the battle situation is down, he doesn't take the initiative to speak, as for you, ........."
The people on the burning sea laughed, and the deep meaning was intriguing.
Chen Sheng's side is indeed a little difficult, the giant python is based on the waterhole, even if it is injured, it can also be suppressed and healed with the help of water transportation. At this point, the impact of the water spirit is not great.
Tianjizi in the long sword looked slightly grim, sighed, and then slapped a palm on the wolf spirit.
A giant wolf appeared out of thin air above the waterhole, and after a brief loss of consciousness, he found the giant python, and the two bit together.
Chen Sheng lowered his head and frowned slightly at the old man sitting cross-legged on the sword.
Tianjizi smiled bitterly, pointed to his body, and said in his heart: "This dog cub has fused with the sword body to such a point, sitting in it is like sitting on pins and needles, and the old man comes out to avoid the limelight." ”
The old man looked at Chen Sheng, and his eyes seemed to say, you kid didn't agree to anything, but it was too unkind.
Chen Sheng shook his head with a smile, signaling that it was okay, and then looked at the monster that was biting together at both ends.
Tianjizi glanced at the little dragon standing in front of the burning sea man, and handed out a sentence in his heart: "Do you regret it?"
Chen Sheng understood that he was asking if he had rejected the Dragon Soul Talisman at the beginning, and now he would not regret it?
Shaking his head with a light smile, Chen Sheng said, "Let it be, it's just a giant python." ”
Tianjizi rolled his eyes when he heard this, and simply lay on his side on the sword.
The wolf python chased in the distance, at first the wolf spirit had the upper hand, and then the situation reversed after the giant python absorbed the water transport, but fortunately, Chen Sheng made a timely move and cooperated with the wolf spirit to suppress it steadily.
It's a pity that it is still far away to kill the giant python, and if it is allowed to escape, it will provoke the primordial monk with no vision.
Tianjizi looked at the woman who was struggling to manage the water transportation below, and smiled faintly, finally raising a conscientious person, not all white-eyed wolves.
Seeing that Shui Luo's face was getting more and more ugly, Tianjizi quietly said, "Little girl, how about the old man make a deal with you?"
The words suddenly sounded in his ears, and Shui Luo looked around blankly, and immediately saw the illusory old man who was smiling and groaning, and was about to open his mouth.
Tianjizi said: "You don't have to speak, just nod or shake your head." ”
Shui Lu nodded immediately.
Tianjizi smiled: "Do you want to help your husband?"
Chen Sheng's many experiences in the secret realm are actually not secrets to Tianjizi, but the breath of the Immortal Pool Avenue is too strong, and Tianjizi sees it in his eyes, so he takes the initiative to cut off his perception.
Therefore, Tianjizi can guess some of this woman's thoughts.
Sure enough, Shui Luo's expression instantly became happy, and he nodded shamefully after noticing the gaffe.
Tianjizi continued: "The old man has two strategies to choose from, one is that you are willing to sacrifice most of your body, and I will pass on a secret method to turn it into a water curtain barrier, which is enough for Chen Sheng to use all his strength to make a move; ”
After Tianjizi finished speaking, he looked at Shui Lu, the two methods seem to be very costly, but in fact, there is a world of difference.
It is the safest way to exchange most of the water transportation real body for Chen Sheng's one move, but it is also the most troublesome, and it is possible that the future God of the Occult Sun Peak will be replaced.
And the bloodline consumption of the dragon genus, as long as it does not hurt the origin, can be repaired through cultivation and purification.
Tianjizi silently looked at Shui Lu, quietly waiting for her answer, and sneered at Lingyun who was hesitant on the other side.
Today, you, the dragon, stand up by yourself, and this matter will be stopped, but if you still cower and let a little girl stand in the way, don't blame the old man for being ruthless.
At this point, Tianjizi coincided with the Burning Sea Man who hated the dragon clan, and both of them were waiting.
The people on the burning sea are waiting for the sword, and the heavenly machine is waiting for the answer of the water spirit.
With a sword to cut down the giant python, Chen Sheng looked at the wolf spirit whose body was becoming more and more illusory, and gave Tianjizi a look.
The old man sighed suddenly, then swept out, came to the top of the giant wolf, and slapped it back on the sword with one palm, "It's good to have a backer." ”
Prior to this, Tianjizi had already transmitted the secret method to the girl Shui Lu.
The people on the burning sea looked at the little Jiaolong, their eyes became more and more cold, and then they looked at the young man who was always on his side, and finally put down his clenched palm, patted Lingyun's shoulder, and walked back to the cave reflexively.
Chen Sheng slashed down the giant python with a sword, and said to Tianjizi: "Can you isolate water transportation?"
Tianjizi smiled a little and said, "Are you going to give it a fight, aren't you afraid that Yuan Ying will suddenly appear?"
Chen Sheng's face was slightly gloomy, "If it goes on like this, we must fall first, and besides, as long as we escape fast enough, we may not have a glimmer of life." ”
Tianjizi was dumbfounded, gave the girl a look, and after getting the latter's response, he said to Chen Sheng: "Yes, but only three breaths." ”
"Enough. The true yuan in his body flowed to the immortal sword in his hand, and Chen Sheng's eyes suddenly became awe-inspiring, and he stepped back on his own, leaving the battlefield to Tianjizi to delay for a moment or two.
The girl suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the water transportation here was sucked into the body in an instant, and the giant python that noticed this vision was restrained by Tianjizi with magic before it could react, and could only watch the water curtain take shape.
Chen Sheng glanced down, his pupils constricted, the time for three breaths had come, and just as the giant python was about to start snatching luck, the sword light had already fallen.
The bright yellow sword qi silk thread flickered, and the top of the python's head fell, and the entire python's body was cut in half.
Almost at the same time, the figure of the girl who had struggled to maintain the water curtain shook, and then fell down.
The dragon spirit rhyme flashed, and he was about to run towards the water spirit, but was blocked by Tianjizi, and the sword qi slashed down.
The blade of the sword slashed against the surface of the body, and half of Lingyun's body was torn to hold the water spirit, and his gaze at Chen Sheng was particularly angry.
The Burning Sea Man who witnessed this scene at the entrance of the cave sneered, "Fortunately, it's not too stupid. ”
Tianjizi's sword is actually not very powerful, but if Lingyun dares to dodge and dodge, or resists with the dragon clan's body, then he will really find death.
Fortunately, this kid is still quite smart, and he let go of his physical defense on his own, and suffered this heavy blow.
Chen Sheng landed on the ground, glanced at Tianjizi coldly, pushed the two swords into the scabbard, and then slowly approached Lingyun, silently took the water spirit, and walked into the cave.
"Senior, is there a way?"
The people on the burning sea were stunned for a moment, and laughed, "Are you asking me?"
Chen Sheng nodded.
Seeing that he was indeed not joking, the burning sea talent said solemnly: "Yes, yes, but why did the old man save you, as for the word life-saving benefactor, there is no need to mention it, even if I float on that water for ten days and a half months, that animal will not dare to make a mistake." ”
When he said this, the people on the burning sea looked at Lingyun, which was meaningful.
Chen Sheng had no choice but to shake his head, put Shui Luo in front of him, took out a Qiankun bag, hesitated for a moment and put it down, turned his head and said, "I'll buy it from you at the price of three thousand spirit stones per elixir, okay?"
Lingyun's body trembled, and she said in a trembling voice, "No need. ”
Chen Sheng didn't bother anymore, took out a bunch of water elixirs, used the true yuan to disperse them into pure water spiritual energy, and guided them into the body of the water spirit, until the girl's body was no longer illusory, and the breath became long, Chen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Walking in front of Lingyun, Chen Sheng put down the spirit stone, and immediately closed his eyes and sank.
There was silence in the cave, and the people on the burning sea looked at the little dragon, smiled coldly, and sat cross-legged beside Chen Sheng.
............
In the small city, Chen Sheng and the hooded Shui Lu walked in front, followed by Lingyun who didn't say a word.
Chen Sheng lightly arched his hand, "Senior, junior wants to go to a shop, so I won't accompany you." ”
The man from the burning sea waved his hand, glanced at Ling Yun, and made a gesture to wipe his neck, "You really don't need me to make a move, in the future, when he grows up, it will be very troublesome for you to deal with it again." ”
Chen Sheng couldn't smile bitterly, the people on the sea had mentioned it many times along the way, and after refusing it again, the people on the sea left with regret.
As he walked past Ling Yun's side, the old man suddenly sighed, "It's a pity, the old man hasn't killed such a pure dragon species yet. ”
Xiao Jiaolong's body trembled slightly, and he did not question the words of the burning sea man.
Chen Sheng didn't care what was behind him, he found someone to ask the location of a shop, and then strode away.
Walking into the shop, Chen Sheng knocked lightly on the table and said, "May I ask where the shopkeeper is?"
The busy guy in front of the cabinet looked up, and his eyes immediately lit up, and he saw that Chen Sheng's behavior was extraordinary, especially the woman who was following closely beside him, and the hat on her head was able to completely restrain her breath.
The guy who can be on duty in a shop has some eyesight, not to mention that the young man who is the leader has no intention of hiding it at all.
At this time, on the counter, there were a few spirit stones in the open, and Chen Sheng smiled lightly: "Trouble little brother to help, please ask the shopkeeper to come out and talk about it." ”
The guy smiled and nodded, and quietly accepted the spirit stone, and then reflexively walked into the door.
In a moment, an old man with a gray beard walked out, his eyes shining brightly, and he was obviously a very shrewd old shopkeeper.
Chen Sheng rubbed his forehead, and he had a headache when he saw the shopkeeper's eyes shining, and he was really left a shadow by the yellow shopkeeper.
The old shopkeeper approached with a smile, his eyes swept over, and then fell on Chen Sheng's face, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to buy some magic weapons, or something else?"
In the cultivation world, magic weapons are the most rare, and those that can be called magic weapons must be artifacts that have given birth to spirituality, or have outstanding materials that can carry the spiritual power of monks.
The former is mostly cultivated by monks, and if the original master dies, the spirituality will gradually weaken, so after the death of many monks, the sect will pass on their magic weapons to their disciples for refining, or sell them in exchange for cultivation resources.
The latter refers to talismans and some consumable magic weapons, which are the most common magic weapons sold by a shop.
Chen Sheng shook his head slowly, spread out a token in his palm, and said with a smile: "Can you find a secret place to talk in detail?"
The old shopkeeper saw the authenticity of the token at a glance, and immediately solemnly said respectfully: "Honored guest, please." ”
With his eyes to stop the guy's intention to ask, the old shopkeeper opened the door curtain and invited Chen Sheng and the two in.
The reason why they said it was two of them was because Jiaolong Lingyun stopped outside the store, looked at Chen Sheng's back, and bit his lip.
When the three of them entered the house, Chen Sheng helped Shui Luo to sit down, and then smiled lightly: "Tired shopkeeper, is there a communication circle here?"
The old shopkeeper's expression was slightly awe-inspiring, and he asked in a low voice, "Dare to ask who the distinguished guest is?"
There are not many people who can hold a Cui character order, only a dozen, and they are all recorded in the shop book, and the old man naturally recognizes it as a shopkeeper, and there is no such person among them.
Chen Sheng's expression was calm, and he said with a smile: "Could it be that the shopkeeper thinks that my token is fake?"
The old shopkeeper waved his hand busily and said with a wry smile: "The distinguished guest said that he laughed, although the old man is old, he still recognizes the brand of his own firm, but he is a little curious, you can get the clan token at such a young age." ”
Chen Sheng bowed his head slightly, his fingertips knocked on the table, his heart was alert, not that he felt that this shopkeeper was fake, but that he was a little surprised by the boldness of the old shopkeeper.
Originally, when he saw the first face of the old shopkeeper, Chen Sheng had a headache, thinking that he had met the second yellow shopkeeper, but now it seems that this elderly shopkeeper is far from having a good heart.
Inquire about the identity of a distinguished customer who distributes tokens in the clan, and if you meet a person with a worse temper, you will directly stab the top management of the trading bank, and the shopkeeper will be finished for the rest of his life.
The old shopkeeper obviously figured this out from Chen Sheng's silence, and the placket on his back was almost wet with sweat, so he immediately lowered his head and said profusely: "Old and abrupt, I still hope that your guest Haihan." ”
Chen Sheng smiled and said lightly: "It's okay, I just hope that the shopkeeper won't have a next time, after all, not everyone is as good as me." ”
The old shopkeeper even claimed that it was, and secretly recorded this not small favor in his heart, and immediately said: "There is one in the communication circle shop, and the distinguished guest can hand over the message to the old man, and I will pass it on on his behalf." ”
Chen Sheng took out a pen and paper, wrote down a few words, and said, "Pass it to Cui Fangbai." ”
He and Cui Fangbai may be far apart, and it is easy to be intercepted with the help of jade talismans, so he can't take a risk now.
When the old shopkeeper heard Cui Fangbai's words, he was a little relieved, he was able to say this so lightly, it seemed that he was a friend of the young master.
But after a while, the old shopkeeper came back, looked at Chen Sheng, and said with a heart: "Distinguished guests stay!"
Chen Sheng turned his head and frowned slightly, he could be the shopkeeper of a shop, he shouldn't be a stupid person, why did he dare to stop himself.
After listening to the old shopkeeper's words, Chen Sheng's face was a little strange, and he couldn't help but giggle when he looked around the girl who didn't have any spirit.
Chen Sheng was puzzled: "The shopkeeper is not joking?"
The shopkeeper of a shop in front of him actually said that he was willing to compensate Chen Sheng for Fang Cai's rudeness.
Although a trace of pain flashed on the old shopkeeper's face, he was restrained in just a moment, and then nodded heavily.
"Don't be busy refusing the guest first, although this treasure is a heavy treasure, the old man family has no one to let him recognize the owner, rather than stay in the warehouse to fall into the dust, it is better to let the guest try his luck, if it becomes a natural good, if not, the old decay has other compensation, do not teach the guest to be disappointed. ”
Chen Sheng smiled dumbly, but he didn't want to refuse again, he just said that no matter how many things he took away in the end, he would ask the shopkeeper to accept the spirit stones, and at most he would discount them more ruthlessly.
The old shopkeeper smiled lovely, and his impression of Chen Sheng was a little better.
Leading the two to a low door, the old shopkeeper stopped, turned his head to look at Chen Sheng and the others, and stopped talking.
Chen Sheng squinted and smiled, deliberately teasing the shopkeeper, but the woman next to him didn't understand at all, looking at the old man through the tulle, her brows furrowed.
Could it be that this old guy regrets it and doesn't want to give that magic weapon to my husband?
Thinking of this, Shui Lu's mood sank, and he even looked at the old shopkeeper with a little unkindness.
Naturally, he could sense the change in the woman's gaze, and the old shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "The method of opening the secret vault of the shop is top secret, and I bother the two distinguished guests to avoid one or two." ”
The old man laughed, looked at the water spirit, and said with a smile, "Thank you, girl." ”
Instantly blushed, Shui Luo's palms subconsciously clenched, Chen Sheng gently patted the back of the girl's hand, and pulled her to twist her head together.
Shui Liu, who had come back to his senses, lowered his head and looked at Chen Sheng's palm that had not yet been removed, which was extremely warm, and his impression of the old man in his heart changed greatly.
The old shopkeeper opened the door, and he shouted before he took the lead in the secret vault.
Chen Sheng hurriedly withdrew the pupil technique, otherwise he would be blinded by this sudden flash of dazzling treasure light.
The outside looks like the portal is not big, but in fact, the space inside is huge, row by row full of green jade shelves, and there is a magic weapon in each grid, and there are various classifications.
The old shopkeeper glanced around with some pride before leading the man to the end of the central road and standing in front of a long knife.
Chen Sheng's heart was turbulent, and he asked in a deep voice, "This is the heavy treasure you are talking about?"
Shui Lu noticed that his husband used an honorific title, and looked at the long knife with a very strange gaze, not greedy, but a little nostalgic.
The girl spoke for the first time: "Old man, can you tell me the origin of this knife?"
The old shopkeeper nodded and said: "I don't know the specific decay, I only know that my family moved here three hundred years later, excavated in an ancient tomb, and it was not yet in the trading house at that time, so it has been left behind." ”
Speaking of this, the old shopkeeper looked at Chen Sheng, and stopped talking, a little uncomfortable.
Chen Sheng smiled, "The old gentleman can ask if he wants, just don't go out and talk nonsense." ”
The old shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and expressed the doubts in his heart: "Looking at the look of the noble guest, it seems that you recognize this long knife?"
Chen Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Count me as an old man, but it's rare to see him now." ”
