Chapter 56: A Dilemma

When Xu Ke was closing his eyes and waiting for death, he heard a woman's shout in front of him: "Evil animals are looking for death!" Although the voice was far away, it sounded very familiar. Xu Ke hurriedly opened his eyes, only to see two clear sword lights passing by him, and wherever the sword light went, the two red-haired monsters that were about to open their mouths to pounce on him had already been forced to retreat from both sides, and even the long-horned red-haired monster that was lying on the ground and biting his left leg was so frightened that his mouth loosened and fled out......

Xu Ke could see clearly, those two sword lights were two shining long swords. At this moment, those two long swords swirled and flew in the air, and Leng Buding would suddenly rush down, stabbing straight at the long-horned red-haired monsters on the ground. The red-haired monsters were also very agile, and when they saw the sword coming, they hurriedly dodged to the side, or stretched out their front paws and jumped to pounce, in a vain attempt to slap the long sword to the ground. However, every time the red-haired monster jumped up and swooped, it was in vain, and the two long swords went up and down, straight and straight, and the body of the sword seemed to have eyes, not only forcing the beasts to scatter and flee, but also, from time to time, poking a sword at one of the red-haired monsters.

"How are you? Get out of here!" The woman's voice said again, this time she was obviously speaking to Xu Ke.

"I don't care, thank you girl for saving me!" Xu Ke gritted his teeth, endured the pain in his left leg, held a long sword, and limped out of the encirclement of the red-haired monster. At this time, the six long-horned red-haired monsters, their eyes were fixed on the two flying swords in the sky, who still had time to pay attention to the injured Xu Ke?

The blue-eyed human demon behind this group of long-horned red-haired monsters seemed unwilling to flee in defeat, and was still commanding the beasts in a "hoo, haha" voice, and fighting with the flying sword. Helplessly, the two flying swords in the sky were really powerful, and every time the sword body rushed down, it could see the right time and poke the back of one of the red-haired monsters. And every stab of the flying sword can make those red-haired monsters open their skin and blood...... Xu Ke took a closer look, and knew that those two flying swords were absolutely extraordinary, and they must be two divine weapons that cut gold and cut iron. He was overjoyed, and immediately couldn't help but shout: "Girl, kill all these monsters!"

"Just you!" The woman stood in the distance, couldn't help but glance at Xu Ke, and couldn't help but say angrily. Listening to her tone, she seemed to recognize Xu Ke.

I saw that the woman was chanting the true trick in her mouth, waving her hands, and the sword wind of the two long swords changed, and suddenly the moves opened and closed, and they became even faster and more powerful. Several long-horned red-haired monsters on the ground were about to scatter and flee, but they were forced to shrink in the center by the long sword. One of the red-haired monsters couldn't help but fall to the ground because it had been stabbed too much by the long sword, the wound was too deep, and the blood was exhausted. Xu Ke looked at the ground, the bloody and dead monster still had the sword wound he had stabbed on his back, which was exactly the same monster that had been stabbed by himself and bit his left leg before.

Seeing that their companion was dead, the other five long-horned red-haired monsters couldn't help but scream, and each struggled to fight with the long sword. Why is that long sword in the air, only it pokes you, but you can't help it at all. After a while, the red-haired monsters' bodies, legs, and heads were covered with wounds left by long sword stabs. Every monster was bleeding all over its body, and this time, the coat color of those monsters was really even more "blood red"......

At this moment, Xu Ke saw that the five red-haired monsters were forced to be embarrassed by the flying sword, and he could hear the "whoosh" shouts in their mouths, obviously crying out in pain. He knew that it wouldn't be long before those red-haired monsters would be slain by the woman's edgeworth. He couldn't help but be triumphant in his heart, as if he had completely forgotten that not long ago, it was he who was forced to be embarrassed by those horned red-haired monsters, and almost gave him his life!

Xu Ke was looking at it with relish, and suddenly felt that a gust of hot air was coming beside him, and the blue-eyed human demon who was originally standing behind the long-horned red-haired monster had suddenly killed him at some point.

Xu Ke hurriedly turned sideways and avoided the sharp palm of the blue-eyed human demon. Annoyed in his heart, he slashed his sword forward, and shouted "Open the wood!" and greeted him.

"Be careful, get out of here!" Xu Ke heard the woman's cry again from a distance, and her voice was still full of concern. His long sword was handed to the middle of the road, and he felt that it was not good, only to see the blue-eyed man and demon's big mouth, and a stream of flames erupted from the mouth of the blue-eyed man and demon, and it was already attacking him.

In a hurry, Xu Ke had to fall to the ground and roll backwards, so that he narrowly and dangerously avoided the flames. He really didn't expect that the monster of the blue-eyed blood-red man would be able to spit fire from its mouth like the great snake of the past, and that fire was even more fierce and violent than before......

The blue-eyed human demon was about to open his mouth and step forward, and he sent another even hotter fire at Xu Ke, who was rolling on the ground. Hearing the sound of the sky breaking behind his ears, the two flying swords of the Edgeworth woman were staggered towards him. The blue-eyed demon seemed to know the power of the two flying swords, and hurriedly lowered his head and jumped back, dodging to dodge. After the two flying swords flew close to the body of the blue-eyed human demon, they turned around again in the air and flew swiftly above his head. The blue-eyed demon didn't dare to slack off, he spread his leg strength, and rushed left and right, his body shape and footwork were even more sensitive than the long-horned red-haired monster. Rao is two flying swords kept rushing down behind him, but they still couldn't hurt him in the slightest.

The blue-eyed man saw that the woman's two flying swords were extremely powerful, and he had already issued a voice to order the five long-horned red-haired monsters to flee quickly. Anyway, even if those five monsters wanted to escape, they had been forced to retreat by the flying sword. The blue-eyed man was in a hurry, so he came up with a plan to "encircle Wei and save Zhao". His sneak attack on the injured Xu Ke was fake, and it was true that he rescued his subordinates. At this time, he saw that the woman's flying sword had been led away by himself, and the five long-horned red-haired monsters who were not lightly injured had fled the battlefield far away. At that moment, he no longer dared to fight, he struggled to urge his feet, and ran away as if he was dead......

In order to rescue Xu Ke, the woman had to let go of five red-haired monsters that were "already in the bag". At this time, I saw that the blue-eyed man and demon only ran wildly and fled, knowing that he would not be able to catch up with him for a while. At that moment, she was about to collect the flying sword, and suddenly saw that there were four long-horned red-haired monsters standing far behind Xu Ke. She was overjoyed in her heart, and immediately moved her hands together, and the two flying swords of the imperial envoy came towards the four-headed monster behind Xu Ke......

Pity the four-headed red-haired monster, who originally stayed behind Xu Ke, and was planning to wait for the blue-eyed demon to kill Xu Ke, so that he could catch up and get a piece of the scraps. However, the plan could not catch up with the change, and two flying swords suddenly appeared in the air, and they saw that their "own brothers" were fighting with the two flying swords, and they were still hesitating in their hearts, whether to flee quickly, and it was just such a moment of hesitation, and the blue-eyed man and demon had led the five long-horned red-haired monsters to escape. At this point, even if they wanted to escape, they had no chance......

I saw the woman's two flying swords whirling rapidly in the air, and the footwork of the four-headed red-haired monster was far inferior to the six-headed led by the blue-eyed human demon before. They couldn't see where the sword was coming from, and they were already struck. In just a moment, the heads of the two monsters had been cut off by the flying sword. Another head was deeply stabbed five inches below the neck, and before he could scream, he fell to the ground and died. The rest of the monster had the worst fate, its limbs were cut off by the sword, its blood was dripping, and it fell to the ground with a long howl and died.

Speaking of which, the four long-horned red-haired monsters could only compete with Xu Ke on a tie. Just because they were greedy for a piece of Xu Ke's leftovers, they were reluctant to give up and hovered behind Xu Ke

He looked around and refused to leave. In the beginning, they only said that flying swords were fighting with other monsters, and had nothing to do with themselves. Unexpectedly, in a moment, danger has befallen him. By the time they realized their danger, they had lost the chance to escape......

How many people in the world are wrong about this? When the danger is still on the heads of others, they only say that it has nothing to do with themselves, and they don't take it seriously in their hearts. When the danger befalls him, he is already unable to regret it!

......

Xu Ke saw that the woman's two flying swords were so powerful, and he couldn't help but admire and thank her in his heart. He saw that the woman had collected the flying sword and had flown to the front, so he hurriedly wanted to get up and salute the woman to thank him, but unexpectedly, he just wanted to stand up, and a sharp pain came from his left leg, and he couldn't help but sit on the ground again.

"How are you? It doesn't matter, right?" the woman hurriedly stepped forward, helped Xu Ke up, and asked again with concern.

"Yiqing...... Girl, why are you?" Xu Ke couldn't help but exclaim in surprise after seeing the woman's appearance clearly. He saw that the woman was dressed in a white shirt and came against the wind, if a fairy of the Heavenly Palace descended to the earth, that graceful and peerless graceful appearance, cold and dusty appearance, who else could there be in this world except Yiqing?

"Hmph! I've heard your voice for a long time, and you don't recognize me until now...... You sick wood!" The person who came was Yiqing, she saw Xu Ke injured and fell to the ground, and rushed to help, her face was full of concern, but what she said was still complaining.

"I didn't expect that I could still see you in this world!" Xu Ke smiled, this time he was sincerely happy from the bottom of his heart. Just because he was in the Mirror Flower Building, he had already learned from Yiqing's dream that she had a life-saving grace for him. Now, after he crossed over, she rescued him again. He recalled that when he was in Chang'an ten years ago, he had never given the other party a good face. At the moment, he felt both admiration and guilt in his heart......

"You are sick in the past, but today you are stupid, right? You and I have seen it in Chang'an City more than a month ago, and today you say such stupid things!" Yi Qing said angrily.

"Yes, yes, I'm a little ...... to see you here today This one, hehe......" Xu Ke scratched his forehead and couldn't help but smirk again.

"You legs...... What's wrong?" Yiqing asked Xu Ke to sit down on the ground, and she leaned down and tore open Xu Ke's trouser leg to examine the wound on his left calf. She saw that Xu Ke's left leg was not lightly injured, and she couldn't help frowning slightly and showing a worried face. I saw that the teeth of the long-horned red-haired monster were extremely deep into the flesh, and the entire calf on the left side of Xu Ke had been torn into a blur of flesh and blood. Fortunately, Xu Ke has the ability to protect the body, if an ordinary person was bitten hard by the monster's sharp teeth, his bones would have been broken and broken in two.

"Miss Yiqing, I'm fine! It doesn't matter!" Xu Ke saw Yiqing leaning over to inspect his left leg, he was embarrassed, and he wanted to get up and excuse himself.

"Don't move!" Yiqing ordered "roughly". She took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms and poured some green powder into Xu Ke's leg wound, and the bleeding from his wound gradually stopped. She straightened up and looked left and right for a while, then tore off a long strip of cloth from her snow-white coat, and leaned down to bandage Xu Ke's left leg......

"Girl, I can't help it!" Xu Ke saw Yiqing suddenly "snort" and tore up his coat, feeling a little surprised in his heart. At this time, he saw that Yiqing had torn off his coat in order to bandage his wounds, and he was anxious and ashamed, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.

"You're a man...... Why are you so annoying!" Yiqing kept scolding Xu Ke while bandaging it: "If you don't bandage it well, how will you go back later?...... When it gets dark, even ten of me won't be able to save you...... I see you sick wood, I see ...... I'm really sick!"

"Okay, you get up and take a few steps by yourself!" Yiqing got up and said after bandaging Xu Ke and stopping.

At this time, Yiqing turned around and looked around, and saw that the five long-horned red-haired monsters killed by his flying sword were still lying on the ground, and warm blood was still flowing in their bodies. She hurriedly walked up to the red-haired monsters, pulled out the long sword on her back, and cut off the horns on the monsters' heads one by one.

Yiqing held the long horns of the five red-haired monsters, walked up to Xu Ke, handed the broken horns to Xu Ke, and said angrily: "Hurry up, drink it while it's hot!"

"What?" Xu Ke couldn't help but ask, looking at the bloody monster broken horns. He felt a pungent smell of blood, and he almost felt nausea in his chest.

"This Dao chief doesn't have time to talk to you, hurry up, drink it!" Yiqing looked at Xu Ke and yelled domineeringly.

Xu Ke had no choice but to pick up a monster's broken horn, put it to his mouth and suck it hard, until he swallowed all the bone marrow and blood in his stomach. He drank one after the other, until he had drunk the blood from the three severed horns in one go. He finally couldn't bear the smell of blood in the broken horn, wiped the residual blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and begged with a bitter face: "Miss Yiqing, this thing is too hard to drink, can you let me drink less?"

"No!" Yi Qing Dynasty Xu Ke glanced at him, but a hint of playfulness flashed in his sharp eyes. She softened her tone, and then said, "You know how to call me 'girl' this time! Before, every time you saw me, didn't you always call me 'Dao Chief'?......"

"Dao Chief, when did I call you 'Dao Chief'?" Xu Ke scratched his forehead, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart. He wondered why he would call Yiqing "Dao Chief" ten years later? Although he has learned advanced Taoism, he is only a young woman after all, and unless he makes a big wish and escapes into the empty door in this life, he will also marry and have children in the future......

Yiqing said gently: "The sharp horn on the top of the head of this long-horned red-haired monster has a great tonic hidden inside, which is hundreds of times stronger than those ginseng and deer antler velvets, and how many people dream of asking for a pair!

"Since it is such a great thing, the remaining two broken horns are not as good as ...... You eat it!" Xu Ke handed over the remaining two broken horns to Yiqing and said politely.

I didn't want to, but Yiqing didn't appreciate it at all, and turned his head and said: "Hmph! You are sick wood, sick pimples! Knowing that this long-horned essence blood is your man's great tonic for Yuanyang, you want to ask me to take it at a girl's house, aren't you making fun of me for not being gentle enough for a woman?"

Xu Ke was suddenly embarrassed, and he said with a blank face: "This ...... I really don't know about this, so ...... Then I'll drink it up at once, girl, don't be surprised, I'll ...... I didn't mean that!" As he spoke, he picked up the remaining two monster horns, put them to his mouth, and drank all the essence inside with a big gulp.

Seeing that Xu Ke had finally drunk up the essence of the five long-horned red-haired monsters, Yi Qing immediately turned his anger into joy and said: "Good! Is this like a word! Don't do anything now, just meditate cross-legged, scatter the true qi from the dantian qi mansion to the limbs and veins, and try to run it all over the Great Zhou Tian?"

Xu Ke felt a warm air flow rising from his abdomen at this time. He knew that the power of the horned essence had already taken in. At that moment, he tried his best to buckle his left foot inward, sit cross-legged with his legs, his heart facing Yuan, his tongue against the palate, closed his eyes and concentrated, and slowly guided the warm current in his abdomen

Dantian Qi Sea, along the second vein of Rendu, under the tail Lu, up the waist Yu, over the Baihui, under the Chengquan...... After running the small Zhou Tian twice, the true yuan was run again, and the warm current that was absorbed into the dantian was spread in the eight veins of the Qi meridians around the body. Xu Ke only felt that his body was warm and hot, and he was incomparably comfortable, and before he knew it, he continued to guide his true qi, and only after running the Great Zhou Tian twice did he slowly open his eyes.

Previously, Xu Ke fought the evil monster hard, and his calf was bitten by the red-haired monster, and his body lost a lot of blood, and his mind was already sluggish and sleepy. After this Qi training and guidance, he suddenly felt that his strength was long, and his spirit couldn't help but be lifted. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I can't imagine that this long-horned red-haired monster is such a vicious thing, and it has such a great tonic hidden in one of its sharp horns!

At this time, Xu Ke saw Yiqing holding a long sword, walked to the side of each long-horned red-haired monster, picked it up in the abdomen, and put his hand into the monster's belly, and took out a pair of palm-sized red galls. He suddenly remembered that when he rescued the seventeenth princess Li Qi in Jinding Mountain, he had also seen Murong Huan use the same method to take out a pair of "tiger treasures" from the belly of the black tiger spirit. Presumably, what Yiqing took at this time must also be the essence of the long-horned red-haired monster's belly.

Yiqing took out a silk bag around his waist and carefully put all five pairs of red galls into it. Xu Ke saw the red gall of the monster that was stabbed to death by Yiqing Feijian first, the largest, about the size of two palms, and the color was the most bright red, but the rest of the red galls were dark red, small in size, and uneven in shape.

Xu Ke was curious, so he asked, "Miss Yiqing, what kind of good thing did you take out of that monster's belly?"

"You, why have you even forgotten this? This is a 'red hairy bile'! Take this wine, just drink a few sips, and you won't be afraid of the cold all winter......" Yiqing put away the silk cloth bag, walked to the stream again, and said from a distance while washing the blood stains on his hands.

After she washed and dried her wrists, she walked up to Xu Ke again, looked at Xu Ke carefully for a long time, and then said to herself:

"Huh? It's strange! You are the sick wood stake, why haven't you seen you for two months, and you are so much younger than before? Could it be that eating that horned essence can still make you rejuvenate? Hmph...... It's not fair!"

Xu Ke sat on the ground, scratching his forehead, and had to tell the truth: "This ...... Miss Yiqing, it's true to be honest, it's true that it's Xu Ke below, but it's not Xu Ke at this time, it's actually from ten years ago......"

At that moment, he entered the Cloud Shadow Building of the God King Pavilion, and with the power of the Cloud Shadow Bead to travel through time and space, he came to the world ten years later, and in the Xuchang Tubao, he saw the past of Murong Yan, Hu Yiyi, Yao Zibei and others ten years later, and briefly told Yiqing that he knew.

"It's so fun! I didn't expect that the Divine King Pavilion was such a fun place!" Yiqing couldn't help but cheer when he heard what Xu Ke said. Her appearance at this time is full of girlish innocence, and the previous aggressive momentum has long been gone.

"Ahem! The old white pavilion master is also eccentric! such a fun place, why don't you ask me to go in and take a look?" she said again.

Xu Ke also carefully looked at the stunning woman in front of him. I haven't seen her for ten years, Hu Yiyi has shown the ups and downs of the years, Yao Zibei has become resolute and resolute, Murong Yan has become more mature and calm, and the Yiqing in front of her has hardly changed at all, and she is still the sometimes docile and sometimes irritable girl ten years ago.

"Sick wood, are you ...... After crossing over here, you can't go back? That chubby Taoist deceived you, right?" Yiqing suddenly asked again.

Xu Ke couldn't help but sigh: "Ahem...... I don't know why, that Yunying real person is going to deceive me until ten years later, and he won't let me go back?"

Yiqing said again: "Don't worry, when the time comes, you will naturally be able to go back." ”

"Really?" Xu Ke couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, don't worry!" Yiqing replied with a smile.

Xu Ke asked again: "But, when is the so-called 'right time'?"

Yiqing replied: "When the time comes, you will know, and when the spirit bead in your arms can emit light, you will be able to go back to the past." ”

Xu Ke listened to Yiqing's answer, and felt a little relieved in his heart. But he immediately scratched his forehead again, secretly feeling that something was wrong, and then asked, "Dare to ask Miss Yiqing, how do you know these things?"

"This ......" Yi Qing Dynasty Xu Ke smiled, and suddenly jumped in his footsteps, and ran in the direction of the four acres of grassland in the valley. I only heard her silver bell-like voice coming in the wind:

"I'm not going to tell you right now! Sick wood, guess ...... yourself."

Xu Ke looked at Yiqing's back and couldn't help but be stunned for a long time. Her fairy robe fluttering posture walks against the wind, and it is very good-looking. Xu Ke exerted force on his left foot and wanted to stand up and accompany him, but as soon as he was lucky, he suddenly felt another burst of pain, so he had to sit down and fall to the ground again.

He simply lay on his back on the ground, looking at the billowing smoke that kept drifting from the sky, thinking back to what Yiqing said just now, and fell into deep thought:

"When the time comes, I can go back to the world I was ten years ago!"

"When the time comes, I'm really ...... Do you want to go back? Don't you want to go back?

"Ahem! What about going back to the past? Isn't the past self about to face a dilemma? I have promised Sister Hu that I will go to Bibo Island with her and Sister Zibei to live in seclusion. But I ...... Can I really be willing to leave Yan'er? And Brother Nangong in the Tsing Yi Guard, without my help, how can he support him? But if I am not willing to leave Chang'an, will I not betray my agreement with Sister Hu and them? Right now, Sister Hu and Xiaobei are still waiting for me in the Hazel Residence! cough...... Rather than going back to the past and falling into a dilemma, it is better to stay in the world in this ten years later! At least, stay here, whether it is Yan'er, Sister Hu, Xiaobei, they can be by my side, and now, there is Miss Yiqing......"

Somehow, after Xu Ke heard Yiqing say that he could go back to the past at the right time, he didn't feel much joy in his heart, but a little more lost. He suddenly felt that although he was standing under this dark world at the moment, as long as he could see Yan'er, Sister Hu, Xiaobei, and ...... every day Yiqing, he was already very satisfied in his heart. If one day, if he really wants to leave this demonized world, he is still a little reluctant......

A month ago, he was still thinking about going back to the past as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, it was just a hurried month, and at this time he didn't think much about returning to his original time and space.

However, in his original time and space, Sister Hu and Sister Zibei there had already packed up and were waiting for him to come out of the pavilion to reunite with them. For Yan'er and Sister Hu, Xiaobei and even Miss Yiqing in that world, how could he ignore them?

In this way, Xu Ke lay under this dark and turbid sky, thinking repeatedly in his heart, but he fell into a dilemma again......

If one day, the cloud shadow bead suddenly flashes with light, do I really want to go back......? Go back?
