Chapter 41: Acting
In the City Lord's Mansion, in a small courtyard, Xingchen slowly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Blood Dance was taking care of himself, and he had some questions, "What's the matter?"
Blood Dance laughed, "Fool, that's grandpa pretending." As he spoke, he pointed to the blood axe not far away, and at this time, the blood axe was using the gas bottle to absorb the black gas on his body.
Xingchen shook his head, recovering from his initial state of confusion, and at this time he recreated the scene of the dungeon in his mind.
The Blood Axe haunted the demonic qi that had been prepared long ago on his body, achieving the purpose of confusing the public, and it was difficult for the stars who were cultivators of the Phantom Sound Dao to distinguish the real from the fake, let alone the blue-clothed owner who was an ordinary blood clan.
The blood axe, which finally cleaned up the demonic qi in his body, glanced at the gas gathering cylinder, and sighed: "This is a good thing, it would be better if there was a way to make this thing." "I just wanted to investigate, and with a bang, the gas concentrator automatically shattered, the heart demon qi overflowed, and the blood axe began to gather in a panic.
The awake star got out of bed and looked at Blood Dance, "You haven't announced the manufacturing method of the gas concentrator in all these years?"
Blood Dance shook her head, "I don't know how to make it in the first place, I just understand the prohibitions of the spiritual world." ”
Xingchen touched his head and smirked, "Yes, it's just that people like me like to learn a little more." He walked towards the Blood Axe and took out a jade slip, "Blood Axe senior, this is one of the copies I prepared. ”
The blood axe looked at Yu Jian, "Is this this?"
Xingchen nodded, "Yes, that's how the gas concentrator is made." ”
The blood axe was immediately held in his hand, "With this thing, it may be able to calm His Majesty's wrath." Stars, you take it, and then you can bring it to me like you just did, and then talk like this. He whispered something in Xingchen's ear, and after speaking, he took out a photo ball.
Seeing this photo ball, Xingchen shrugged his shoulders slightly, took the jade slip back, and put it into the storage ring.
The Blood Axe coughed dryly and put the photo ball in Blood Dance's hand, "Xiao Wu, wait until you record the images of the two of us." ”
Blood Dance nodded stunned.
The blood axe walked to the place where the demonic qi gathered and stretched out his finger, "I'll count to three, and I'll start taking pictures." One, two, three. "Just finished counting, before Blood Dance had time to activate the photo function, he had already become contemplative.
After the shadow ball began to take pictures, the blood axe said in a deep voice: "How can we perfectly preserve these heart demon qi?"
Xingchen immediately jumped out, "Senior, I have something that can solve your troubles. "Stretched out his hand, holding a gas concentrator in his hand," the bell ...... Bell Bell Bell ......"
The blood axe showed a suspicious expression, "It turned out to be the grandson's son-in-law, is this little thing in your hand okay?"
Xingchen stretched out his index finger and shook it in front of his eyes, "Senior, you underestimate it too much. This thing is called the Qi Gathering Cylinder, and it can absorb any type of passive aura, just like this!"
The blood axe hurriedly took the gas gathering bottle in his hand, "It's really a good thing." I'll see how it's made?"
The camera shifted to Xingchen, who turned his back to the blood axe, half-sideways, and showed a smiling face, "This thing has a self-destruction prohibition, and without this jade slip, no one can know its structure." Reaching out and taking out a jade slip.
Blood Dance watched the behavior of the two people, leaving a drop of cold sweat.
The Blood Axe continued his performance, "Quick, grandson-in-law, give it to me." ”
Xingchen showed a sad expression, "But I have caused a big disaster, this thing is for you, and I can't escape my life." Finally, the image in the photo ball is fixed on Xingchen's sad face, and the photo ends.
After doing this, Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and handed out the jade jian, "Senior, this thing will be given to you." ”
The blood axe beckoned, and put the photo ball and the jade slip in his hand, "This thing is still handed over to the eldest brother, and when the gas gathering bottle has results, it will be handed over to Your Majesty." I'll leave for a while, and you don't run around. After saying that, the figure disappeared.
Xingchen sat at the table next to him, "Xiao Wu, was my behavior just now very funny?"
Blood Dance sat next to him and nodded, "Yes, it's very funny, I really don't understand, you are willing to cooperate with my grandfather and do that kind of inferior move." ”
Hearing this, Xingchen lay directly on the table, "I'm going to pretend to be dead for a while, don't stop me." That kind of behavior should be treated as if it was done in your previous life. "Say complete individual breathing and cardiac arrest.
Seeing Xingchen like this, Blood Dance reached out and touched Xingchen's long hair, and sighed helplessly, "Little fool, let's sleep like this for a while!"
After a long time, the blood axe returned, and when he saw the star, which was completely breathless, he was puzzled, "What happened to the star?"
Blood Dance shrugged, "He's fine, just pretending to be dead, and he'll be fine for a while." ”
The blood axe was puzzled, "What are you doing pretending to be dead?"
Blood Dance sighed, "I just did something that I thought I was ashamed of." But it doesn't matter, it'll be fine for a while. ”
said that it was a while, and soon an hour passed, Xingchen's breathing and heartbeat resumed, and he stood up full of energy, "There is a feeling of rebirth at this moment, sure enough, it was all from the previous life, hahaha." ”
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Blood Dance's head, could it be that Xingchen had been brainwashed by her grandfather's blood axe, otherwise why was she so funny at the moment.
However, the stars will soon return to normal like this.
When Blood Dance took out half of the Pisces jade pendant and handed it to Xingchen, Xingchen was a little puzzled. Blood Dance explained, "As a top-level family, our Bat Dragon family has mastered a lot of secret realms. This jade pendant is the key to one of the secret realms. ”
Xingchen looked at the red Pisces jade pendant in his hand and repeated, "Jade pendant, secret realm key?"
Blood Dance nodded, "Yes, that secret realm is called the Ichthyosaurus Secret Realm, and Grandpa wants us to go in and hide for a while." Saying that, Blood Dance had already taken out another one, "Plus this one, we can go together." ”
Xingchen looked at the two jade pendants and sighed, "Do you really have to do this?" Seeing Blood Dance's happy expression again, he said, "That's it! When will we leave?"
The blood axe on the side walked over, "It's almost time now, we can go at any time." ”
Xingchen stood up, "Without further ado, let's go now! ”
The Blood Axe led the two of them out of the small courtyard, and they came to the square next to the City Lord's Mansion, where a Flying Snow Battleship was already waiting.
Bloodwine and Elena also came here in advance to wait. Seeing Blood Dance coming, Elena walked over and hugged Blood Dance, "Xiao Wu, you have to take care." Blood Wine came to the side, looked at Xingchen, and said solemnly: "Good son-in-law, the Fish and Dragon Secret Realm is not an absolutely safe place, you have to protect Blood Dance." ”
Xingchen arched his hand, "Don't worry, I will take care of Blood Dance, Uncle Bloodwine, and Mother, you also have to take care, there are demon soldiers in this Deer Chasing Realm, and there will definitely be no peace." ”
The two looked at Xingchen and smiled.
After a while, Xingchen and Blood Dance were already standing on the deck of the Blizzard Battleship, silently looking at Bloodwine and Elena standing in the square.
With the slight vibration of the battleship as it took off, a trace of tears drifted through the sky.
As the battleship flew out of the city, Xingchen found that it was heading due west, where there were 100,000 miles of mountains that had once served as a playing field.
Xingchen had a guess in his heart, could it be that their destination this time was?
The battleship continued to fly at a low speed, and finally stopped in front of the supply station in the middle of the 100,000-mile mountains at dawn. Looking at the tight defensive force of the supply station in front of him, Xingchen's conjecture was confirmed.
Sure enough, if there is nothing here, why is there a tight defense?
Led by the Blood Axe, Star and Blood Dance stepped off the ship and made their way through layers of defense to the supply station.
Here, there is a stone gate. The material of the stone gate is unknown, Xingchen has never seen this material, and there is no record in the "Pharmacopoeia of Everything".
The stone door was closed, and two large fish were carved into it chasing each other and playing.
The Blood Axe stood in front of the stone gate and introduced: "But all secret realms have entrances and exits, some are hidden in the void, and some exist in the Deer Realm. It's like the gate of this Ichthyosaurus Secret Realm, but in any case, the gate at the entrance and exit is basically made of the same mysterious material, and even the top god-level powerhouse in the Deer Chasing Realm is difficult to destroy, so there is no way to enter without an entry key. ”
After speaking, the blood axe turned to look at Xingchen, "Son-in-law, except for the Divine Dragon Secret Realm, you shouldn't have taken the initiative to enter other secret realms, right?"
Xingchen shook his head, "No, I've been to the Forest of Dreams before. ”
Blood Axe's eyes widened, "How is that possible? You've been to the Forest of Dreams, so you've been to Sky City too?"
Xingchen nodded, "yes! How do you know?"
The Blood Axe said, "I heard Your Majesty say that the Sky City is in the space mezzanine outside the Deer Realm. ”
When Xingchen heard this, he immediately understood why he needed a teleportation array to reach Sky City, but he also remembered his previous experience in the spatial mezzanine, if it weren't for Emperor Yu's all-round protection, how could he survive in the spatial mezzanine......
The Blood Axe interrupted Xingchen's memories with a loud remark, "Now is not the time to sigh, Xiao Wu, you two take out the jade pendant." ”
After the two of them took out the jade pendant, the blood axe continued: "Now, refine it preliminarily. ”
Xingchen took the jade slip and probed the phantom sound idea into it, and in a short time, a spiritual imprint had already appeared in the jade pendant. As for how to open the secret realm of the fish and dragon, Xingchen already knows it in his heart.
He looked at the Blood Dance, who was also preliminarily refining the jade pendant, and nodded.
The two sacrificed jade pendants at the same time, and the two jade pendants flew in the air, and soon merged into one and became a Pisces jade pendant. After synthesizing the Pisces jade pendant, it did not stop, and the jade pendant melted directly into the door and disappeared. The gate began to glow red because of the integration of the jade pendant.
In the red light, the door opened, and the stars and the blood dance glanced at each other, turning into two rays of light, one blue and one red, and flew into it. The gate closed, the light faded, and the ground returned to its original state.
Of the three people who came here, only the Blood Axe remained. After the stars and the blood dance vanished, the Blood Axe took a deep look at the gate and left the place.
Not far from the supply station, two shadows stood. One has a fiery breath and the other has a cool breath. It was Concubine Ji Ming and the Holy Wind Envoy.
Among them, the Holy Wind Envoy looked at Concubine Ji Ming, who was silent, and asked, "Holy Flame Envoy, what are we doing following this little guy?"
Concubine Ji Ming turned around and said mysteriously: "Following him, naturally I have my intentions." ”
The Holy Wind Envoy smiled, "I feel like you've taken a fancy to this kid." Before, we helped the werewolf to avenge it, and among the few people who hid in our neighborhood, there was this kid and his little girlfriend, and I wanted to do it at that time, but you didn't want to. I think ......"
Concubine Ji Ming turned around and looked stern, "What do you think?"
The Holy Wind Envoy laughed, "I think I'm more suitable to be the head of the Eight Great Holy Envoys, as long as you are willing to give it to me, I won't tell the master about it." ”
Concubine Ji Ming also smiled: "If you want to say it, just say it." There are some things that you will never understand. After saying that, the flames on her body rose, and when the flames disappeared, she had also disappeared.
The Holy Wind Envoy smiled sinisterly, "I really don't dare to say it, you wait for me." With that, the figure melted into the wind and disappeared.
At this time, far away in the core area of the distant Longxi Mountain Range, in a huge palace in the body of an unnamed mountain peak, Xingluo, who had been wearing a mask, stood up from the main seat.
The purple-clothed young man on the side asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Xingluo sighed: "I can't sense his existence, it should be the old guy of the manta dragon who hid him in a secret realm somewhere." Contact the Flame Messenger immediately to see where he has gone, I need to make sure he is safe. ”
Desolation didn't leave to contact the Holy Flame Envoy, he looked at Xingluo with some puzzlement, "Master, I don't understand, if you want to ensure his safety, just put him under house arrest, why let him go outside?"
Xingluo smiled, "I don't want to be like my master, barren, can you understand me?"
Desolation arched his hand and said: "Desolation understands. "Before he became a demon soldier, he was the sword spirit of the Desolate Sword, and he has been accompanying Xingluo since he was weak. He knew everything that happened to Xingluo, and of course he also knew Xingluo's master, so he naturally understood Xingluo's words.
Because Desolation itself is a demon soldier, a spatial transmission array is fused in his body, coupled with his special connection with the heart demon tree species, he can contact his subordinates outside without leaving.
After a while, Barren bowed to Xingluo, "Master, he has entered the Ichthyosaurus Secret Realm controlled by the Manta Dragon Family. The Flame Messenger was on her way back, and she seemed to have some opinion about the Wind Messenger. ”
Xingluo waved his hand, "I see." After a while, he asked, "How are you doing in the Kingdom of the Holy Gate?"
Barren smiled bitterly, "The energy of the group of people in the Holy Gate Kingdom is in conflict with our energy itself, so the current control of manpower is insufficient. ”
Xingluo paced two steps left and right and said, "I want to develop a new Heart Demon Tree species. People like Dijon are very useful tools, barren, you know what to do, right?"
Desolation nodded, "Desolate understands, there are quite a few such people on the list of Holy Gate countries that I control. Give me a month, and I'll use them to send more people to the owner. With that, the desolation retreated.
A day later, Concubine Ji Ming finally returned, and she just wanted to enter the main hall when she felt a wind drifting past her, so she stopped. The wind began to transform, and finally the Holy Wind Messenger appeared.
The Holy Wind Envoy winked at Concubine Ji Ming and ran directly into the main hall. She saw Xingluo wearing a mask in the main hall and knelt on one knee, "My subordinates have seen my master." ”
Xingluo looked at the kneeling Holy Wind Envoy and asked, "You came in first, it seems that you have something to tell me." ”
The Holy Wind Envoy immediately complimented, "The master is wise, and his subordinates do have something to report." ”
"Say it!"
The Holy Wind Envoy immediately said: "As the head of the Eight Great Holy Envoys, the Holy Fire Envoy has been reluctant to come back, looking at a kid all day long, and asking the master to judge the Holy Order. ”
Xingluo smiled slightly, "I sent her, if you punish her, won't you punish myself first." ”
The Holy Wind Messenger immediately lay down on the ground, "His subordinates deserve death." The subordinates really don't know why the master pays attention to that kid. ”
A voice said, "Lift up your head." The Holy Wind Envoy raised her head, and in her eyes, Xingluo was taking off her mask.
When the mask was completely removed, the Holy Wind was stunned, the master turned out to be exactly the same as the kid, but in her memory, the master was not like this.
After Xingluo revealed his true face, he smiled slightly, "Now, you know my secret, tell me, what will I do with you?"
The Holy Wind Envoy lay on the ground again, "My subordinates don't know any secrets. ”
Xingluo stretched out his hand, and a glimmer of light appeared on his fingertips, "What secrets do I have, you will always figure it out." You have just betrayed the Holy Flame Herald, and you may not betray me in the future. That said, the punishment did not come down immediately.
After waiting for a while, Concubine Ji Ming walked in and knelt on one knee, "Please also ask the master to spare her from dying." ”
Xingluo put down his hand, "You have been protecting him all this time, and if you have made meritorious contributions, I will promise you." As he spoke, his arm lifted again, "But just spare her from dying." After speaking, Dao Dao divine power flew out.
The Holy Wind Envoy did not resist this, and under the influence of divine power, the Holy Wind Envoy turned into a sword.
After doing all this, Xingluo beckoned, and Concubine Ji Ming's saber Sun Yao Sword flew out, "The Sun Yao Sword is kept here by me, and this sword will be handed over to you to use." ”
Looking at the sword wrapped with the power of the wind in front of her, Concubine Ji Ming's eyes showed a trace of sadness, and she didn't hold it in her hand for the first time.
On top of the sword, a spirit appeared, it was the Holy Wind Messenger who had turned into a sword spirit, she floated in the air, and bowed to Xingluo, "The Holy Wind can no longer be loyal to her master in the future." ”
Xingluo looked at the Sword Spirit Holy Wind Envoy kneeling in mid-air, and put the mask back on, making it impossible to see the change in his complexion. Distant memories came to his mind.
It was in a small village in the northern part of the Yanhuang Kingdom, and the family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, leaving only a five-year-old girl alive. But the only survivor is considered a disaster by the whole village, and wants to sink the little girl in the pond. It was then that Xingluo appeared and saved the little girl.
Twenty years after they left, the entire village was destroyed by the hurricane.
The memory returned to the main hall, and Xingluo turned around, no longer looking at the sword that lingered with the power of the wind.
Only then did Concubine Ji Ming hold the sword and turn to leave. When she came to the door of the main hall, a voice came, "The sword name is the Holy Wind." When we succeed, we will lift her punishment. ”
The Holy Wind Sword that got the name sounded with a sword roar, and Concubine Ji Ming turned around and bowed.
Inside the palace, Xingluo sighed, he knew very well in his heart that the Holy Wind was the most loyal subordinate to him. As for Concubine Ming, her loyalty is mixed with feelings for another person.
Even so, for the sake of the whole plan, he had to impose some punishment to deter the rest of his men. This is also why he said that he would not leave the Holy Wind Envoy, but why he didn't do it for a long time, as soon as Concubine Ming pleaded, he directly spared the Holy Wind Envoy's life.
