Chapter 159: "Iwate"
It's Xiao Nai!
It's Nai's voice!
I was surprised and frightened, I didn't care to wipe the splash off my face, my body subconsciously rushed forward, and my mouth shouted in a stack: "Is it Xiao Nai! You are here! Who are you saving! My brother and them!"
One hand grabbed my vest and fixed me firmly, Luo Ying's voice was close to my ear, rapid and cold: "Panic what! Dry your face and see clearly first!"
I struggled for a moment, but I couldn't break free, but I could see clearly: in the rolling water not far in front of me, the Broken Tail Demon that had just submerged in the water was floating up and down, and there seemed to be something rolling in a dull tail - this Broken Tail Demon was still here, not swept away by the current!
A man in the waves of the water came down the river, and in the blink of an eye, before I could lean in to fish, the man had already stretched out his arm and nimbly climbed the edge of the boulder platform where Luoying and I were standing.
The man raised his head, his face was snow-white, his eyes were wavy, his short gray hair was wet and close to his scalp, his face was cold, he looked up at me, his mouth was open, and he couldn't speak, it was the fairy Xiao Nai!
"Xiao Nai!" I shouted, holding out my hand to her.
Luo Ying slapped my hand and pulled me behind me, and he leaned down himself, grabbed Xiao Nai's arm, and lifted her to the platform.
When Xiao Nai saw the two of us, her eyes lit up, her face suddenly loosened, and her body seemed to be instantly drained of her muscles and bones, and she withered.
"Catch me!" Luo Ying whispered.
I knew that Luo Ying had hidden me behind me to protect me, but since I had seen that it was my own, I stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Nai's other arm.
"Meiyi...... Fast...... Save your brother, they ......" Xiao Nai's voice was faint and intermittent.
I looked up, and the red and blue dragons and the two flames had risen into the air, shining a clear picture of the broken tail demon floating on the water, and I saw several fish rolling in its extended tail, several of which looked very brightly colored, two red, two white, and one yellow!
I suddenly realized that it was like thunder exploding overhead: these brightly colored fish were the ones of my brother and my brother, who had transformed into human bodies after entering the water!
"Xiao Nai will be handed over to you!" I let go, let go of the hand that was holding Xiao Nai, and threw myself into the water.
I've seen with my own eyes how the Severed Tail uses its tail to roll up and down the fish in the water, toss them up and down, separates the flesh and bones, and finally sends the flesh and blood into its mouth through the grooves in its tail - I will never allow this to happen to my brother and them!!
"I'll go and give me the dragon ring. Luo Ying grabbed me, the expression on her face was cold and resolute, and her eyes were like two blue arrows, pressed on the arrow strings, accurately aiming at the direction of my heart.
My heart suddenly shook uncontrollably twice—at this moment, why was Luoying's eyes so strange, but so familiar, as if something sleeping in the abyss of my blood had suddenly been awakened.
I glanced at the fish wrapped in the tail of the Broken Tail Demon, silently took off the dragon ring on the index finger of my right hand, and handed it to Luo Ying.
Luo Ying took the dragon ring and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, believe me, I will bring them back - it wants the soul of the demon king, not their life." ”
Trust him. At this moment, I seemed to be bewitched by his arrow-ready eyes, willing to believe him, and only able to believe him.
I didn't have time to hesitate, Luo Ying had already pulled Xiao Nai up and put her in my hands.
"Meiyi, I'm willing to help, but, please don't give up on me. The dragon ring glowed with blue light in Luo Ying's white palm, making a deep sound.
"I'll never give up on you. Please help Luo Ying and bring my brother back to the ...... Thank you. As I spoke to the Dragon Ring, I pulled Nai up to the platform with all my might—her strength seemed to have run out, and she fell down heavily, with great difficulty.
The water flooded higher.
Most of Xiao Nai's body was already out of the water, and I raised my eyes to look at the broken tail demon in the water, and my heart that had just relaxed suddenly tightened again.
I saw that the two arms of the Broken Tail Demon were desperately rowing in the rushing water, and one of the hands was raised, as if it was holding something - it was the silhouette of the Demon King! Its tail was churning up and down, as if it had the force of absorption, and the fish that were caught by the tail were thrown up and caught by it, but they could never get rid of it, and finally still fell back into its tail.
If I'm guessing correctly, brother, they've been stunned by the tail of the Broken Tail.
The Severed Tail Demon is not going to eat his brother and them now, it is using them as bargaining chips, and it wants to exchange it for the soul of the Demon King on the Dragon Ring.
"Xiao Nai, come up quickly!" I stared at the movement of the twin-tailed demon and said to Xiao Nai urgently: "You stay on this platform first, it will be okay for the time being, I will help Luo Ying save my brother and them!"
"But...... But I can't come up......" Xiao Nai was panting, and there was uncontrollable pain in her voice.
Why can't you come up? I was shocked and looked down at Xiao Nai.
Most of her body has indeed come out of the water under my drag, but the remaining half of her body is still in the water, and my hands have used all their strength!
Xiao Nai was petite, even if she was exhausted and couldn't exert her strength at all, it was impossible for her to be so heavy.
That's not right!
"Get up!" I shouted, clamping Xiao Nai's arm and jerking her up, but at the same time, I felt a huge force dragging Xiao Nai and dragging her into the water!
I only heard a "click" sound from Xiao Nai's body, Xiao Nai's face suddenly distorted in pain, his eyes suddenly dispersed, he turned his face to me, and his voice hissed out from between his teeth, trembling: "My ...... My bones...... It was like it was being pulled off, and something was pulling at me...... Kindness...... Meiyi, I can't come up...... Or...... Let go, I'm ...... I hurt so much......"
I listened to Xiao Nai's painful voice, and my heart was like a knife. Raising his eyes, Luo Ying had already gone to the front of the Broken Tail Demon, and his body jumped towards the water, and there was an extra figure beside him.
What does Luoying's action mean? It seems that he is afraid of sinking into the water—I thought to myself, and it turned out that this is how it is: Luoying will soon become a fish after entering the water, and like his brother and them, he has to rescue his brother and them before they become fish, and there is not much time left for him.
I looked down at Xiao Nai again, her face had crumpled into a withered fruit, and the moisture had been squeezed out by the pain!
What to do!
I can't let go, if I let go, Xiao Nai will be dragged into the water, and I can't pull her anymore, if I try harder, I'm afraid I'll break her alive!
What to do!!
I shouted in my heart.
A snort, the fishy wind swept by, and the blue dragon had leaned over me.
Good Blue Dragon!
"Blue Dragon, you hold Xiao Nai's arm with your claws, you can't exert yourself," I said, "I dived into the water to see if something was holding her." ”
"Meiyi, let me go into the water, I'm afraid that there is danger underwater. "Blue Dragon Road.
"It's okay, you take care of Xiao Nai," I said, glancing at the golden feather cloak tied around my waist: "Let the red dragon stand by at Luoying's side, for fear that the broken tail demon will break out at any time, and you must make sure that my brother and them are safe." ”
"Okay! you have to be careful. The blue dragon urn said meekly.
"Xiao Nai, don't be afraid, we will protect you. I nodded at Xiao Nai, and I didn't have time to look at the situation on Luoying's side, so I plunged into the water.
It was murky underwater, and the current was surging and washing me in one direction.
I patted the golden feather on my waist, the pearl on my chest glowed warmly, I steadied my breath, and my eyes began to see clearly.
I saw that Xiao Nai's body was clinging to the cliff wall of the rock platform that had been flooded, and he didn't look unusual.
I clasped the cliff wall with one hand, holding myself in place to avoid being swept away by the flood, while slowly approaching Xiao Nai's body.
Strange, Xiao Nai was dressed in a green shirt, looking black in the dark water, and suddenly looked, nothing dragged Xiao Nai's feet and legs, how could she be so heavy that she couldn't climb the platform?
I sank deeper, fixed my left hand on the cliff wall, and held Nai's feet with my right hand, pushing her to the surface.
At the moment when I was straining, I suddenly felt that my left hand supporting the cliff wall suddenly became weak, and the cliff wall was actually pressed down by my hand!
I'm going to go! This rock platform is made of mud?!
I shook my body, and was about to move my left hand out of the cliff nest and change it to a hard fulcrum, when I saw a depression in the nest, and five gray and black finger-like things suddenly poked out of the nest, and firmly grasped my hand into the cliff!
This...... I was so shocked that I didn't have time to scream, so I raised my breath and retracted my hand.
That "hand" clenched me tightly and refused to let go, but with my vigorous breakfree, I was pulled out of the cliff!
Now I can see it clearly:
It turned out to be a "hand" made of rock! It really had five fingers! It was able to exist out of the cliff!
I looked down again, oh my God!
The hard cliff began to become soft and twisted under the water, in my eyes, and countless pairs of dense "rock hands" peeled off the cliff wall and began to swim on the legs of me and Xiao Nai, and some even "hand" pulled the "hand" to form a "hand line" that fixed us both on the cliff.
Originally...... It turned out that Xiao Nai's black-looking clothes had a piece of "Iwate" attached to it, but I didn't see it clearly!
Five thousand years, five thousand years, even a rock has become fine!
I settled down and found the reason, but I was not as frightened as before, after all, the most terrible thing is the unknown.
I punched and kicked and tore at the "Iwate" that was swimming on top of me, trying to get rid of a hand and help Xiao Nai break free from the "Iwate" confinement and let the blue dragon carry her to the platform.
However, it seems that I still underestimated this group of "rock hands" who seem to have been awakened by the devil.
They were densely packed, layer by layer from my feet upwards, after all, they were rocks and not hands, and I felt my body being tightly embedded in the rock cliff, I don't know if it was my illusion, I felt as if my body was "petrified", yes, it was "petrified"! My skin seemed to merge with these "rock hands", and my body turned into stone inch by inch!
