Chapter Ninety-Four: Inexplicable Fear
Outside the window, the night was getting darker, and it was quiet, and only a few insect calls could be heard occasionally.
Pang Xie stood up, looked around, and saw a jade sword hanging on the west wall, about two and a half feet long, slightly shorter than the ordinary long sword, stepped over, picked up the sword and held it in his hand, only to feel a chill rushing out, rushing up along the tendons, freezing so that his wrists were a little stiff, and he hurriedly used the internal qi to force this cold air away.
"Good sword!"
Pang Xie couldn't help but praise, this sword jade is of excellent quality, if it is handed over to a refining master, it is enough to refine a high-grade magic weapon.
"This is obtained by my father-in-law in the Arctic Ice Sea a few years ago, it is said to be carved from cold jade, which naturally has a cold air, and cannot be used by non-congenital masters. Ruri got up and walked over to Pang Xie.
"Oh!"
Pang Xie's heart couldn't help but move, he looked back at Liuli, and glanced up and down, since her stepfather could give her this sword, it would naturally not be used as an ornament, in other words, the woman in front of her, who looked soft and weak, was also a congenital master, no wonder she was not afraid to meet him alone.
"Please also show your sword, sir!" Ruri made a gesture of please.
"Good!"
Pang Xie's figure flickered, took a step in the air, jumped to the middle of the house, his wrist shook, the long sword in his palm trembled slightly, and in an instant, it turned into a cloud of white mist, and gradually drifted in all directions, hiding his body in it, and then urged his internal strength, a move "Qingfeng Xu Lai", and performed the Luoying Island introductory swordsmanship "Qingfeng Thirteen Styles".
A gust of wind, slowly born, around the house a few times, in the past to show this set of swordsmanship, the wind without a trace, like a spring dream, will not leave a trace, today is the ice jade sword, only listen to the "crunch" a few crisp sounds, the tea in the tea bowl on the table, instantly frozen into an ice lump, the tea bowl burst.
Liuli stood in the cold mist, with a smile on her face, her clothes and belts flying, she was wrapped in silver, and then she put on a cloud of smoke, like an iceberg goddess, and like a plateau snow girl, not like a person in the world.
Without waiting for the chill to get stronger, Pang Xie turned his eyes, the move in his hand changed sharply, the sword momentum condensed, the white mist in the room disappeared suddenly, and a jade sword was clearly revealed, and then jumped up, holding the hilt of the sword, and stabbed downward, only to hear the three sounds of "snort, snort, snort", the long sword was only one, but there were three sword qi separated from the tip of the sword, and shot forward together, stabbing on the top of several cases below, piercing out three small holes, the sword qi was still not attenuated, and continued to be tattooed on the green bricks, piercing out three bottomless holes.
"Miss Liuli, how is Bai's swordsmanship? This set of Qingfeng Thirteen Styles is still eye-catching, right? It's a pity that the time for the life-killing serial three immortal sword training is not long, and he hasn't entered the hall yet, which disappoints Miss!" Pang Xie hung the jade sword back with his backhand.
"Qingfeng Thirteen Styles are really elegant, and they can be called first-class swordsmanship, but what about this deadly chain of three immortal swords......" Liuli pursed her lips and smiled, but did not continue.
"What's the matter?" Pang Xie laughed.
"I'm afraid this swordsmanship isn't quite right, right? I remember my father-in-law said that the Deadly Serial Three Immortal Swords don't hurt people with sword qi. Ruri said with a smile.
Pang Xie smiled and said: "It turns out that the young lady has seen this swordsmanship, and the murderous aura of the life-killing serial three immortal swords is too strong, and the sword will hurt people when it comes out, so what I practiced just now is the advanced swordsmanship of the Qingfeng Thirteen Style, Taiyue Sanqingfeng." If the young lady insists on watching, she will practice again. ”
"That's not necessary, whether it's the life-killing serial Three Immortal Sword, or the Taiyue Sanqingfeng are all the mastery of Luoying Island, they are all the same, it seems that Mr. is really the Baicheng of Luoying Island, and the little girl can say something. ”
While speaking, Liuli walked slowly to the door, put her ear on the door, listened carefully, and made sure that there was no one outside.
"Girl, please speak!" said Pang Xie Zhengse.
"Actually, I want you to take me out of here. Ruri took a deep breath and said slowly.
"Oh, Miss Liuli said this, Bai didn't understand. Ponsie said.
Before he came, he had inquired about Liuli's identity with Dong Yishi, although she was sitting in the Immortal Cave, nominally just a musician in the Qinglou, but she was very popular, and someone took care of her, and those who didn't want to see her could not see it, and no one could force her to do what she didn't want to do.
"Sir, excuse me. ”
"As far as Bai knows, Miss Liuli seems to be able to move at will in this dungeon, and no one will stop her, why do you need us to take you away?" Pang Xie continued to ask.
Liuli sighed softly, with a helpless look on her face, and said, "I can walk casually in the dungeon, but no matter what, I can't leave here." ”
"Why is that?" asked Ponsei.
"Because ......" Liuli's face gradually became serious, and she said slowly: "I'm the same as you, I'm not from here, and I'm from outside, the difference is that you came here on your own initiative, and I was brought here." ”
"I want to hear about it. Pang Xie was stunned, I hadn't heard Dong Yishi say it.
"More than ten years ago, Elder Song of the Earth Spirit Gate Divine Hall, who is also my stepfather, once went out on errands and brought me here from outside, and since then, I have never gone out again. Ruri said.
"So they captured you. Ponche frowned.
"It's not a catch, after Elder Song brought me here, he was very good to me, not only recognized me as a righteous daughter, but also personally taught me to read and write words, practice martial arts, all applied things are the best, no one can bully me, except for not letting me leave the Earth Spirit Gate, whatever other requests I make, he will try his best to meet them. Ruri said.
"Why can't you leave?" said Ponchet.
"I don't know, I also asked him, but unfortunately he refused to say, maybe he was afraid that I would never return. There was a hint of confusion on Liuli's face.
"It's incomprehensible, so let's not talk about it for now. Pang Xie knew that there was nothing to talk about on this topic, so he changed the topic and asked: "Miss Liuli, since you are doing well here, why do you still want to leave? The situation outside has not been very good these years, and it is far less stable than here." ”
When Liuli heard this, she immediately fell silent and did not answer.
"Aren't you homesick?" asked Ponsei.
"I don't have a home, and in my memory, when my stepfather found me, I was alone, about four or five years old, living alone without anyone with me. Liuli's face suddenly showed a trace of doubt.
When Pang Xie heard this, he also felt that it was obviously wrong, how could a four- or five-year-old child have the ability to survive in these years, and how could he live alone, however, he did not delve into it, but continued to ask: "Then why?"
"Because of fear. Liuli's face gradually turned white, her eyes were a little divergent, and she said blankly: "In the past few years, I have often felt a wave of panic for no reason, as if a giant beast will eat me, I don't know where this fear comes from, but it is really terrifying." ”
When she said this, her hands unconsciously grasped the armrests of the chair, only to hear a few muffled sounds of "creaking", and scratched a few deep finger marks on the wooden armrests.
"Especially in the past six months, there has been a voice in my heart telling me to get out of here quickly, and if I don't leave, I will be eaten. ”
Pang Xie's face gradually became solemn, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you told Elder Song about this?"
"No, I didn't dare tell him, and whenever I did, I felt a palpitation, as if something terrible was going to happen as soon as I told him. Ruri's face turned even paler.
