Chapter 222: The Killer
As soon as Wang Zhu heard what Ling Zhishi said, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. She's a living daughter.,Pearl who hasn't been touched by any man.,Although the current temporary appearance is a boy.,But it's just an ordinary disguise.,If the identity is recognized, maybe you have to go back.。
After all, she sneaked out of the family, she didn't bring any armor and dark stones, and she didn't have anyone who could protect herself, she came here on foot, and mortgaged almost all the valuable things on her body, but at this time she actually wanted a boy to touch her feet, although she was very reluctant, but she knew that her identity at this time was a boy, so she could only nod very reluctantly.
Wang Zhu's slightly cold cheeks flashed a shy flush, Ling Zhishi didn't think about anything in his heart, such a young master could only heal Wang Zhu's foot injury as soon as possible, because she was still needed to lead the way and enter the palace of the Tianheng Empire.
In the silence of the night, the sound of the fire burning and panting was particularly loud. Ling Zhishi looked down, only to see that Wang Zhu's instep extended to his ankle and there was a very deep purple color, this is already very serious, if it is not treated, it is estimated that it will be difficult to cure the root cause, because Wang Zhu's true qi on his feet is disordered, his body suddenly loses balance and falls, and all the qi gathered is expanding on his feet, which is likely to hurt the meridians.
It's just that Wang Zhu's calves are icy and jade, and his skin is like clotted fat, I really can't imagine that this is a boy's leg, and Ling Zhishi put Wang Zhu's right foot in the palm of his hand, and the shy toes that don't know how to place them are pink and crystalline. With such a delicate face, the three thousand green silks fluttered in the moonlight, and the appearance of this beautiful man almost made Ling Zhishi tempted, but he shook his head and said silently in his heart: This is a man.
Ling Zhishi's right hand stretched out his middle finger and index finger, a gentle force gradually gathered on it, and the cyan light gently put it on Wang Zhu's instep, the cold and ** touch made Wang Zhu's shoulders tremble, but it was accompanied by a slight pain.
"I can only dredge the true qi on your feet now, but it's just a symptom but not a cure, if you want to recover completely, you must dredge it again, so you must also remember it when you return to your family, otherwise don't blame me if something goes wrong at that time." Ling Zhishi lowered his head, ran his true qi, and used his heart and soul for two purposes.
Wang Zhu was silent, but she didn't know in her heart whether to take him to the Tianheng Empire or not, after all, she also ran out of it, and she had to go back after doing so much, so what she had done before was not in vain. But if she didn't take him to the Tianheng Empire, then she would have no value, and she wouldn't be able to live alone.
After a short time of thinking, Ling Zhishi stood up expressionlessly, the sweat on his forehead obviously meant that he was also a little tired, the most important thing to dredge the meridians was to concentrate and calm down, and to be absolutely concentrated, even he was a little tired after ten minutes, so he sat on the ground and cultivated.
Wang Zhu's face was pleasantly surprised, because she felt that the aura absorbed in her body was much faster than before, at this time she felt that her whole body was extremely relaxed, and the pores of her body could subtly perceive the flow of aura and air, and at the same time, it also made her very curious, facing such a mysterious person is so powerful.
............
As the night slowly passed, the blazing sun and scorching sun once again shrouded the desert in a fiery atmosphere.
Under the distorted heat that made the air distort, the endless expanse of sand was scalding golden yellow, and the two people in black robes slowly walked forward one after the other, sweat quietly sliding down from the sides of their faces, and the crystal clear beads of sweat shone through the sun's rays, and the air evaporated before they fell to the ground.
Ling Zhishi suddenly realized something in the state of cultivation last night, so the moment he started to talk to him, it was in the early hours of this morning, and when he woke up, he saw Wang Zhu's side face that was sleeping sweetly and his sleeping posture was not like words, so this was the scene they have now.
"I'm tired, why should I suffer such a sin, I haven't woken up yet, I still have to sleep, God is unfair. Wang Zhu's fair face showed a touch of pink flush, his posture was thin and straight, his steps were gentle, and the three thousand green silk coiled to the root behind his ears, he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, just like an elegant man who walked out of ancient poetry and painting.
Ling Zhishi looked at Wang Zhu, if he hadn't seen the bulge of her Adam's apple, otherwise he would have wondered if she was disguised as a man, "You are embarrassed to say that you are unconscious, you could have arrived in the early hours of this morning and had to wait until such a scorching weather." ”
Inadvertently, a trace of murderous aura suddenly flashed in the desert five meters on the side, and Wang Zhu behind him hit Ling Zhishi's back, pouted and pinched his nose very dissatisfied, and just wanted to ask Ling Zhishi why he stopped, and a three-meter-long lizard suddenly jumped out of the ground on her right side.
"Ahh~" Before Wang Zhu could react, his mind was blank, but he subconsciously screamed. Ling Zhishi pulled Wang Zhu to his side with a palm of his left hand, took out the ancient sword with his backhand, and the three-meter-long lizard that rose into the air was cut in half by a sharp sword qi from head to tail.
With a gentle flick of the sword, the blood left on the tip of the sword was ripped away from the desert. This lizard is only a ninth rank of the Dust Realm, but its movements and concealment ability are very good. Slowly putting away the ancient sword, Ling Zhishi continued to walk forward calmly.
Wang Zhu, who was still bumping into the deer, looked at the lizard's body cut in half dryly, and after being stunned for a while, he trotted forward to follow.
Finally, after a short distance forward, a bustling town finally appeared in front of them. The town was built on the edge of the desert, but it was lined with trees from the gates of the wind-blown sandy town.
Entering the wind-blown sand town, many of the people here are mercenaries and ordinary peasants, and the ordinary cultivators of the True Scripture are extremely rare, but despite this, the crowd on the streets here is still endless, and the temperature is completely different from the desert. The windswept and sandy town is extremely cool.
"Lin Tu, what do we want now? Do you want to keep walking? I'm a little hungry right now. Wang Zhu walked backwards step by step, she leaned on Ling Zhishi's right shoulder, and pulled her arms tightly in her arms with both hands.
Ling Zhishi suddenly lifted Wang Zhu's whole person with his right hand, and said calmly: "Don't rely on me in such a hot weather, the two of us haven't hooked up so much, and we can be called brothers." He said so, but he still stopped.
Coming to an inn on the left, the crowd inside was a little sparse, only one table was full, and many other seats were empty. Ling Zhishi and Wang Zhu did a position outside, and casually gave Xiao Er a few high-grade Xuanshi and asked Wang Zhu to do what he wanted, and he himself took out the map and thought carefully.
Wang Zhu was penniless, his stomach was already paralyzed with hunger, and at this time, seeing Ling Zhishi throwing out five high-grade Xuanshi so generously, he was even more amazed by this man in his heart, but he was like a wooden man, with rich combat experience, thoughtful and caring for people, but there was an inexplicable sense of dependence.
Take out the sheepskin map, their location at this time is still a long way from the Tianheng Empire, but it is estimated that they can arrive tomorrow, and the remaining four and a half days are enough for the Qilin brother in his body to understand this opportunity thoroughly, but since it is for the divine beasts to attract attention, then this thing is naturally extremely precious.
After another period of time, Wang Zhu was full of happiness and burped, from the time she ran away from home, she finally felt the feeling of not worrying about food and danger, she was unfamiliar with her at the beginning, she was so worried everywhere as such a beautiful girl, and even injured many times.
It's just that just when Ling Zhishi and Wang Zhu wanted to go out from the door of the inn, there were a few more black-clothed people sneaking around from the other side of the street.
These black-clothed people have all undergone strict training, and their strength is around the fifth stage of the Split Sky Realm, judging from such a small step and looking around, it should be to find someone, Ling Zhishi feels that nine times out of ten they are looking for Wang Zhu next to him.
Wang Zhu obviously also found these sneaky black-clothed people, and she suddenly became anxious, "This group of people is the assassination force of the Wen family of the Tianheng Empire, and I can favor the daggers in their hands at a glance." Our family has never been in harmony with the Wen family, and we have secretly fought many times, my younger brother was secretly poisoned by the Wen family, causing the meridians to be completely destroyed and committed suicide, but there is no evidence pointing to them, I didn't expect that they already knew my location, and even sent so many people to assassinate me. ”
Vaguely, Wang Zhu's hands were secretly clenched. Ling Zhishi saw that the figures of these black-clothed men were gradually moving closer to their direction, so he grabbed Wang Zhu and immediately turned his head into the depths of the small alleyway, intending to sneak around.
Just as the figures of Ling Zhishi and Wang Zhu had just disappeared, the figure of a man in black suddenly appeared outside this small alleyway, and the disc pointer in his hand swayed slightly from side to side, and finally pointed his fingertips to the depths of this alleyway. Seven or eight black figures on the street looked at the alleyway at the same time, and the figures suddenly disappeared in place.
Pulling Wang Zhu to run for more than ten minutes, there are two forked roads in almost every depth of the alley here, which means that this place is the same, but the easier it is to find out the location, and Ling Zhishi does not dare to find out how the group of people in black found here, obviously they have accurate information or something to help them know Wang Zhu's location, so this place has already become very unsafe.
