Chapter 317: Pool of Blood

Looking at Xu Xueying's suddenly somewhat happy expression, Shen Shi was a little stunned, and for a while he didn't quite understand why she looked worried and sad in front of her, but when she turned her head, she looked much better, maybe the girl's mind was like this, he didn't understand it too well. It's just that after he said that sentence that was a bit like a promise, Shen Shi's heart suddenly moved, but for no reason, he suddenly thought of another thing, which was already a little distant and forgotten in his memory.

Many years ago, in fact, he had promised another girl, the starfish girl of the Red Clam Demon Clan, and promised that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would take her to his hometown to have a look. Because Starfish has always lived in the red clam village on Qingyu Island since childhood, and has never been to the outside world.

It's just that the promise made on that island when I was a teenager was so natural and simple, but now I think about it seems unusually frivolous and unrealistic, and in the foreseeable future, this promise will probably not be fulfilled. First, with the reality of today's world, the starfish with an extremely bright appearance and a mussel shell, once she leaves Qingyu Island and sets foot on the Hongmeng Continent, she will be instantly recognized as a demon clan, and she will be greeted by an unpredictable fate;

In this life, I don't know if I can still have a chance to see the starfish girl again.

He was a little stunned for a while, Xu Xueying called him Shen Shi didn't respond, and screamed again, Shen Shi woke up, smiled, and then gently put Xu Xueying's body flat on the ground for her to lie down, and then said in a low voice: "Seeing that your recovery speed is very good, in addition to the effect of those elixirs, it should be that your family has cultivated you on weekdays, and let you practice some exercises and take some spiritual materials in advance, so your physique is far better than ordinary people." At this rate of recovery, you should be able to barely endure the pain of running around after a day or two of rest, and then I will take you out of here and back to Haizhou Liuyun City. ”

Xu Xueying nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Shen Shi glanced at her, hesitated, and said, "Xiaoying, things were urgent last night, and I didn't have time to ask you, how did this wound on your body come about, and what about the woman who took care of you, Ah Hong?

Xu Xueying lay quietly on the ground, her expression was very calm, no sadness or joy, she just looked at Shen Shi, and after being silent for a moment, she said, "Speaking of this, I just have a doubt in my heart." After my accident until today, why didn't anyone in my family chase me to save me, but Brother Shen, you were the first to come?"

Shen Shi smiled, and did not hide it at the moment, so he met the three of Chen Zhong from the mountain behind the Qinglong Mountain Range, and heard their words, and then met Xu Xueying on the Great Wall looking at the moon and watching the sea late at night, and then the next scene was the scene outside the Qingshan Inn and on the long street the next day.

Xu Xueying had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and it seemed that even her cheeks were slightly shiny, and she looked particularly beautiful in the early morning light, and said with a smile: "Brother Shen, are you so sure of the people in that carriage, must it be me who was stolen by those three bad guys?"

Shen Shi thought about it, but shook his head and said: "Thinking about this now, in fact, I can't be completely sure, it's just that the matter was urgent that day, and I can't take too much care of it." Even if I'm wrong, it's just a busy time at most, but if it's really you, if I don't come along, I'm afraid I won't be at ease for the rest of my life. ”

Xu Xueying looked at Shen Shi with a gentle gaze, and said, "So you didn't travel thousands of miles across the continent and chased all the way to Lanzhou?"

Shen Shi smiled and said, "Fortunately, I came." ”

Xu Xueying smiled and said, "Yes, fortunately you came." ”

Shen Shi saw a strand of messy hair on Xu Xueying's sideburns on her fair cheeks, and gently brushed it for her, and then asked with a smile: "By the way, you haven't told me yet, how did you escape last night, and what about the woman who guarded you, Ah Hong?"

Xu Xueying suddenly fell silent, her face did not change much, but her eyes lowered slightly, and faintly, her bright pupils seemed to shrink slightly.

※※※

The Yellow Phosphorus Mountain is barren and empty, and it looks a little abrupt in the surrounding mountains, where most of the mountains grow with mountains and trees, but this area is inaccessible, so even during the day, the vicinity seems very quiet.

At noon on this day, a figure suddenly appeared on the top of the Yellow Phosphorus Mountain, and it was a thin man, dressed in a gray robe, wearing a cloth towel on his face, and he couldn't see his appearance and age, but looking at his gray hair, he should be not young.

After the masked old man appeared on the top of the mountain, he first glanced around, and then his figure suddenly swept up, his movements were easy and fast, and in a blink of an eye, he disappeared into the deep valley that crisscrossed those strange rocks, and after a few ups and downs, he came to a ravine that looked very hidden on the outside.

After walking along the rocky path at the bottom of the bumpy ditch for a while, and after bypassing a spiky rock that suddenly protruded, a cave hidden behind a large rock appeared in front of me. It's just that the masked old man's footsteps suddenly paused at this moment, and through the scarf, he could only see his slight eyebrows on his face, and he could vaguely see that his brows seemed to be wrinkled suddenly.

The air at the entrance of the cave was filled with the smell of blood.

The masked old man stood for a moment, then walked towards the cave, not particularly concerned about any danger, or perhaps in his eyes, there was no way that there could be anything on this Yellow Phosphorus Mountain that could threaten him. Stepping into this cave, my eyes suddenly darkened, and then I quickly adapted to the light in this cave, and saw that this was actually a hidden but not too big cave, a circular cave about two feet deep and about two feet deep, and everything was at a glance.

A faint light of heaven fell from behind the masked old man, illuminating the scene in the cave, and then a touch of extremely deep and extremely red and intense colors suddenly appeared in his eyes.

That's the color of blood.

It was sprinkled all over the cave, on the ground and on the walls, as if a crazy painter had smeared the cave with a shocking blood red, like a basin of blood being sprayed out, splashing to every corner.

There was a figure huddled in the corner, and then in a nearby place, the blood pool was particularly strong, and there were even many large and small things that looked like pieces of meat, falling to the ground in a disorderly manner, forming a breathless and thrilling horror scene.

Even if this masked old man has spent a long life and seen many vicissitudes in the world, even he himself cannot be regarded as a good person, but at this moment, even he subconsciously held his breath, and his eyes instantly became cold.

He stood in the cave for a moment, then walked out, and when the sun shone on him again, the warm breath seemed to dispel the gloom in the cave, and even he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, with a look of doubt and contemplation in his eyes, he pondered for a moment before slowly raising his head to look around the peak, which was a rolling mountain.

The mountains and fields are silent, and the world is solemn.
