Chapter 17: Saving Lives

Erlang couldn't support it anymore, and sat down on the ground with a "bang", I really wanted to sleep on it.

A weak and boneless little hand suddenly hooked his neck, and Erlang closed his eyes, what should I do?

The girl squirmed, and Jiro tried to grab the girl's wrist with his hand, but the girl grabbed Jiro's hand instead......

Erlang's heart suddenly became inexplicably clear, and the magic spells in the old books jumped out of his mind bizarrely!

"Ice and snow all over the sky!" A crisp and cold voice came out, and the temperature in a radius of two or three meters dropped sharply, and the frost gradually climbed up the bodies of the two people, and the girl's movements were frozen. At first, the girl still wanted to resist, but the water element gathered more and more, and the ice became thicker and thicker, and gradually the two were frozen into ice sculptures.

The poison in the girl is really strong, and the ice and snow frozen on the girl's body melt significantly faster than Erlang, especially the head, but stimulated by the ice and snow, the flush on the girl's face finally faded, and after touching a cup of tea, the girl finally regained her mobility and crawled out of the ice sculpture. When she saw the appearance of herself and Erlang, she finally couldn't accept the truth and fainted again.

When Jiro woke up, Dongfang had already turned white. Jiro got up and found that the girl was out of sight, and her body was already unclothed. Jiro didn't have any clothes to change, so he had to grope around, but he didn't even have a big tree on the top of the mountain, and he couldn't cover his shame with a leaf. Erlang was helpless and found a small cave, so he walked towards the cave.

As soon as I entered the cave, I turned a corner, and it was pitch black inside, and my eyes suddenly felt that I couldn't react. Suddenly, a dagger was placed across his neck, and Erlang was stunned: "You haven't left yet?"

didn't react, Erlang said again: "Put the knife down, since you can't do it, why bother." ”

With a "dang bang", the dagger fell to the ground, and the girl punched Erlang from behind fiercely, and Erlang fell to the ground. The girl sat down on the ground, tears raining down. Jiro struggled for a long time, got up from the ground, and stood weakly to the side, the girl's cry was miserable, which made him a little uneasy.

After crying for a long time, the girl wiped away her tears and said coldly, "Go away! forget everything that happened and be your student well." ”

"Huh?" Jiro raised an eyebrow.

"After leaving, we will never see each other again, I will leave the academy and go away from home!" replied the girl.

"......" Erlang was speechless and sighed silently.

It was dawn, and the two of them were ready to hit the road. It's just that the girl's thigh was injured, she lost a lot of blood, and she could barely walk, so Erlang carried the girl on his back and walked. Fortunately, Erlang's recovery is super strong, and he recovered in a day and a night, except for the lack of strength in his right hand, his strength has really recovered a lot. The girl didn't want to be taken care of by Erlang, but when she saw Erlang's clear eyes, she somehow agreed.

However, Erlang is road blind, and the girl doesn't know the road, so the difficulty of the task back to the camp is definitely not low. The two of them traveled all day, and they didn't get out of the mountain, but with Erlang's keen perception ability, they survived without any danger, and they didn't even encounter a single demonic beast. This night, the two found a cave, naturally, the girl slept inside, and Erlang lived outside, and there was nothing to say all night. The next morning, the two continued to explore, and the girl finally didn't have to carry it, she stubbornly followed Jiro on foot, and finally found her way down the mountain. As soon as I came down the mountain, I entered a dense forest, and suddenly found that there were traces of battle in the place. Further on, there were several wind wolf corpses, all of which were killed with a single sword. Following the traces of blood and battle, Erlang carefully groped for the past and found that fifty or sixty wind wolves had died along the way, and the fatal injuries were all sword wounds. Is this the same master's doing? Jiro was curious.

Further back, suddenly a strong bloody breath hit the nose, carefully pulled the leaf probe and looked, Erlang froze, twenty or thirty wind wolves died in the open space, horizontal and vertical, everywhere were the severed limbs and dead bodies of demon wolves, and blood flowed all over the ground. Jiro and the girl walked out of the bushes and into the clearing, where they were in a trance. Suddenly, Erlang smiled: "Classmate, there are so many magic crystals, how many do you think you can get?" The girl said quietly: "After last night, no matter how many magic crystals there are, it has nothing to do with me!"

Erlang choked and didn't speak, he thought about it and decided to dig out the magic crystal. He asked the girl to borrow the dagger, and the girl hesitated and handed it to him. Erlang began to deal with the demon wolf, and with great effort, he dug out twenty-eight magic crystals.

"Well, there is a demon wolf behind the boulder, he walked to the boulder, and was about to attack, when suddenly his heart sank, and a long sword went straight to his neck. The sword came too fast, and although Jiro sensed the danger, his body didn't have time to dodge at all. Not surprisingly, the long sword was across the neck, and with a "poof" sound, it entered the flesh for a minute, and Erlang turned his head vigorously, so fortunately he did not cut the trachea. Blood was marked from the neck, Erlang did not frown, and looked coldly at the owner of the sword, a middle-aged man who was nearly forty years old, with blurred flesh and blood on his chest, a wolf claw was broken on his chest, and his body was also covered in blood, his left sleeve was empty, and his left arm was missing at shoulder to shoulder. Seeing Erlang's expression like this, the middle-aged man's heart suddenly sudden, and this look made his hand involuntarily slow down and stop in the air.

"Ahh

"Tianchen Academy, what a person!" The middle-aged man withdrew his long sword, and with a "clang", the head of the sword fell to the stone, and sparks shot out. Erlang looked at the middle-aged man calmly, and the long sword that he was holding in his hand was trembling slightly, as if he couldn't grasp it. "Good sword!" Jiro said lightly.

"Little brother, do you know swords?"

Erlang closed his eyes, he didn't understand the sword, he had amnesia first, he knew what the sword was, and he forgot to understand it. But Erlang obviously closed his eyes, but he still felt the attachment of the dying man in front of him to the sword.

"Uncle's heavy sword has no edge, which is in response to the meaning of open-mindedness by nature, heavy but not clumsy, thick but not dull. The sword is like a character, uncle, how big the mind is, how big the sword intent is. Dehou can carry things, and Siren should be invincible. After Erlang finished speaking, he was also surprised, this actually came from his mouth, could it be the legendary soul possession? Erlang fell into deep thought, because these words also touched him.

There was a long silence, and the girl didn't seem willing to interrupt it. After a long time, the middle-aged man muttered: "The heavy sword has no edge, and I am open-minded by nature! Okay! I think I have been crisscrossing the continent for more than 20 years, and today I am dying, I have to meet a master, and I will die without regrets." As soon as he raised his hand, he put the long sword on his chest: "This sword has followed me for more than 20 years, and today I have a fate, I give it to my brother, I hope you will accept it!"

"Sir, if a gentleman doesn't win people's love, I can't ask for this sword. ”

"Brother, take it, there is something to ask for later!"

"Unfortunately, I am a magician, and this sword is useless to me. Uncle should be a non-twister, please tell me something!" Erlang said.

"I'm the young leader of the Condor Mercenary Regiment of the Water Moon Empire, and my name is Brown. On that day, because I heard from the Agni Mercenary Group that there was a second-level demonic beast on Water God Island, the Wind Condor appeared, I left a letter without asking my father's permission, and then brought seven brothers to Water God Island. Unexpectedly, he fell into the trap of traitors, and the deputy head of the Agni Mercenary Regiment took dozens of subordinates to ambush on the island. As soon as he entered the inner island, the bloody rain and bloody wind on the shore of Tianchi hit the fire group hard, but seven good brothers who lived and died together died. In the end, I was desperately attacked by the deputy head of the fire and killed him by luck, and I was seriously injured myself. ”

"I knew that the inner island was in danger, and I was seriously injured, and I could no longer explore the Storm Condor, so I had to slowly withdraw from the inner island, but I didn't expect to encounter wolves. This Wind Wolf King had just broken through to the second level, and he was originally no threat, but he didn't expect the tiger to fall into Pingyang and finally die here. ”

"Hey, it's all my fault. I wanted to capture the Wind Condor and prepare for the mercenary conference, but I didn't expect it to be fateful. The poor old father is old, and he worries about the trivial affairs of the mercenary group all day long, and there is no shortage of the pain of losing his son when he is old. Poor and clumsy Jing has been at home since he entered the house, gathering less and leaving more, and there must be more middle-aged widowhood. The poor son is young and ignorant, and no one cares about him, and he first loses his father as a teenager. ”

After Brown finished speaking, his heart was indescribably desolate. The girl was already sad in her heart, and she was sad when she heard it, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing that Brown was already strong and self-supporting, Erlang seemed to be unbearable, and said, "Uncle does he have a way to continue his life?"

"Nope. ”

“......”

"Unless, the healing elixir Tianxiang Intermittent Pill is still on me, which can allow me to save my life temporarily. ”

"Tianxiang Intermittent Pill, lost?"

"On that day, in the battle of Tianchi, I was cut off an arm, and everything I had with me was hidden in the space ring on my left hand...... Providence so!"

"How far is it from here?" asked Jiro.

"Huh?" Not only did Brown look at Jiro with more appreciation, but even the girl who had been silent couldn't help but re-examine Jiro. When did this disciple have such a sense of justice?

"Don't look at me like that, I'm selfish. Obviously, this is already an inner island, and with the strength of the two of us, returning to the camp is more than the sky. In that case, if the intermittent pill is not far away, you can take a gamble, so that you can have a free bodyguard, isn't it?"

"It's good that it hasn't completely subverted my three views!" the girl shouted in her heart.

"Ahem!" Brown coughed up a mouthful of blood. "It's been a long way out of here, and I'm not even able to make it there, let alone the dangerous road. I appreciate your kindness, young man. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll leave if you believe me, and I'll leave if you don't believe me. ”

"......" Brown was speechless and nodded heavily at Jiro. Jiro smiled.

Erlang found a lot of rattan, flipped it with his left hand, and after a while, he actually made a simple basket. He laboriously moved Brown into the basket, trying not to pull him to the injury, and then carried the basket behind him, feeling the weight for a while, and it was okay.

"Let's hit the road. Erlang said and walked in front, and behind him, the girl followed Erlang, keeping a distance of a few meters.

As a veteran road blind one, guiding the way is naturally Brown's business. Along the way, over the mountains and mountains, Brown said that the long road is indeed long enough, plus Erlang is carrying people, the girl can't walk fast, and she hasn't reached her destination all day. This made Brown, who was forcibly supported, even more discouraged, however, it was useless to be anxious, and every warning dodge by Jiro proved to be completely worth it, although it was slower, it was better than being discovered.

At night, Jiro habitually found a small cave and let the girl enter to rest. The girl gave this treatment to Brown, and she herself and Jiro guarded the entrance of the cave.

The island of the god of water is full of pristine vegetation, especially the inner islands. In the middle of the night, there was no light in the night sky, and the two people at the entrance of the cave sat alive, meditating with their eyes closed, forgetting the time.

"Why do they say you're not a magician, but you can do magic? Do you use scrolls?"

"What is a scroll?"

"......" Erlang was depressed. "When I entered the school, Dece said that I hadn't reached the level of a magician, maybe after studying for a while, I had reached it!"

"Is it that easy? I meditated for years to break the ice. The girl opened her eyes.

"Is it difficult?" Jiro seemed to feel the gaze, and slowly opened his eyes, staring faintly at the light of the night sky in the still night.

"No!" the girl also stared into Jiro's deep eyes, as if looking for something.

"Isn't that the end of it?"

The girl shook her head, didn't say anything, closed her eyes gently, and just added in her heart: "It's very difficult!"

Jiro also closed his eyes, but it was a very old but very familiar feeling that came to his heart, kind, yes, kind. It's very strange how a few unkind words got a kind result.

It's all because of each other's eyes, the girl thought to herself, eyes are the windows to the soul, and what I see in his eyes is spotless calm, and a touch of concern, a touch of intimacy. Is this still the prodigal son? I should have spurned him, why should there be three points of appreciation, three points of dependence, three points of kindness, and one point of longing for his family?

"My name is Jiro. ”

"Thunder. ”

"I ......"

"You are a new generation of strange men, bewitching beauty, mysterious backstage, arrogant words and deeds, you are not a bad person but a pervert, not a lewd man but a waste wood, you are the only student in the academy who is not qualified but enrolled, you are the freshman who is cared for by Lilith, the fire girl of the sky, the first person to enter the school in a high-profile manner, and you are a combination of thousands of jealousies. ”

Erlang smiled bitterly: "I was originally an ordinary boy in the third class, but I didn't want to be slandered by rumors." ”

“......”
