Chapter 9: The First Crisis
Since that night, the demonic energy in Yi Qing's body has been completely cleared, and the injury has finally been completely healed. Maybe it's because he usually uses all his strength to suppress the demonic qi, but at this time, as soon as the demonic qi is clear, he actually feels that the cultivation that has not been loosened for a long time has a faint tendency to break through. And all of this is because of the demon pill that the master gave him, and he is once again glad to have this good teacher. As a result, the intention to speak became more and more unspeakable.
"Uh, kitchen...... Follower...... That 'pro (Qing)'?" Shen Ying pushed the person who was stir-frying, "You...... Are you alright?"
Yi Qing was stunned for a moment, the guilt on his face became heavier, and he put down the spatula and saluted her, "You can see it? Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Master's eyes." ”
"......, uh, it's just that you have the same dish, and you have added salty three times, I want to ask if you can still eat it?"
His face became more and more guilty, and he hesitated for a while before gritting his teeth and saying, "The apprentice does have a matter to discuss, and he forgets that the master has done it!"
Shen Ying glanced at the pot and said casually, "If you have something to say, just say it." "Well, it's good that it's the radish that is fried, not the meat.
"The disciple knows that the master has a great heart, so he is stationed at this border all the year round to prevent demons from going out to do evil. ”
"Uh...... no, she's just a road idiot who doesn't dare to walk around.
"It's just that what the vain is asking for is extraordinary and imminent. As he spoke, he turned his hand and took out the Soul Eater Banner that had been sealed before and explained, "This banner is still made by Demon Cultivator Rui Mi. He once slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people, trapped all his souls in this banner, and raised them in a pool of qi and blood. The demons in the banner fight each other, trying to raise the ghost king. Now there are tens of thousands of evil spirits left in the flag, and any one of them will cause the lives to be destroyed. Thinking of the evil deeds of the demon cultivator, his palms tightened, and he took a deep breath before continuing, "Now that this banner is out of the control of its master, the evil spirits inside will definitely take the opportunity to break through the banner. Although I used a spell to temporarily seal this flag last night, it is not a long-term solution, and on the day of the full moon, when the yin energy is at its highest, the evil ghost will break through the seal and bring disaster to the world. ”
"Oh......" Shen Ying nodded, completely unintelligible, "What the hell do you want to say?"
"100,000 evil ghosts, I'm afraid that no one can suppress them with their own strength. He tightened his palms and said with a firm face, "So...... I want to send this flag to the Immortal Gate, Xuantian Sect. It is located above the spiritual vein, and the aura can be used to wash away the evil spirits, so as to transcend the 100,000 dead souls inside. Just ......"
He suddenly thought of something, and turned his head to look at Shen Ying with some hesitation, "This is going to Xuantian Sect, the road is far away, and the disciple is only shallow in learning, in case something happens to this flag, I'm afraid it will be powerless." ”
He clenched his fists and suddenly knelt down towards her, "Disciple Courage, can you ask Master to come with me and go to Xuantian Sect." ”
"Okay!"
"I know Master is here to practice. I'm afraid it's right to leave rashly...... Huh, hey, hey, ...... Master, you promised!" Yi Qing's eyes widened in disbelief, feeling like an auditory hallucination. After all, choosing to live next to this demon realm must have been a big obstacle to cultivation, and it must have been done as a last resort. And when it comes to cultivation, it is most taboo to give up halfway. She agreed to her leave so easily!
"Get up. Shen Ying pulled the person up, and said that you know the road. She had lived in this broken forest for a few months, and if it weren't for the hunter who refused to take her out, and she was a serious road idiot, she was afraid that she would not even be able to find a hut to sleep in, so she would have gone out to surf long ago. Sure enough, it is still beneficial to accept an apprentice.
"When are we leaving? It's better to hit the day than to hit the day, or let's go now! Lunch can be packed. ”
"Master......" Yi Qing's nose was sour, and there was nowhere to put his heart, Master is really a great and kind person, and he deserves to be a master in this life.
"Why are you stunned?" Shen Ying turned around and walked out of the kitchen, beckoning, "Hurry up, pack lunch, let's eat while walking." Time is pressing, forget the dish in the pot. "It's already mushy, anyway.
"Yes!" Yi Qing rubbed his nose, suppressed the emotion in his heart, turned around to extinguish the fire, straightened his waist and strode out, and something called 'Shimen Pride' gushed out.
Finally able to leave this place, Shen Ying was a little excited, and rushed into the house to clean up, but found that she didn't seem to have anything to clean up. After thinking about it, he turned around and left a note for the rabbit. When I went out, I saw that the cook's apprentice had already packed lunch and was waiting for her.
"I'm all right. She walked over and casually asked, "Which way are you going?"
Yi Qing stretched out his hand and pointed to the right, "Just go south." ”
"Let's go!"
"Yes. He habitually raised his hand, and suddenly a sword appeared in front of him out of thin air, and he took a step forward, and Edgeworth flew up. He was about to speed up, but when he looked back, he found that someone was still in the same place, so he reminded, "Master, the road to Xuantian Sect is far away, and you need to use the sword." ”
Shen Ying: "...... what kind of high-tech is Edgeworth?" If she could fly, would she still be trapped here for four months?
"Master?"
"I won't. ”
"Huh!?" Yi Qing almost thought he had misheard, and when he saw that she didn't look like she was joking, he asked tentatively, "Master...... But you are used to the royal weapon?"
"Nor will it. ”
"What about the wind?"
"I haven't heard of it. ”
"What about escape?"
"I don't understand. ”
“......”
Yi Qing was silent for a full minute before he flew back with a complicated face, and hesitantly stretched out his hand to her and said, "That...... Can I give Master a ride?"
"Okay!" the other party replied in seconds, turned around and jumped onto his sword, "Thank you, I'm standing firm, driving the car." ”
That eagerness is a bit ...... no matter how you look at it. Overexcited? It's like a little disciple of the first sword in each sect.
Yi Qing shook his head, threw away this ridiculous idea, and led people to rise up again. Master is so powerful, how can he not know Edgeworth? There must be another reason. Could it be that he didn't tell him because he had suffered some internal injury when he exorcised the demonic qi for him last night?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he couldn't help but look back at Shen Ying frequently, Master...... It's so kind.
Shen Ying, who went to heaven for the first time: "......, uh, what the hell is the eyes of the cheap cook who cares for disabled children?
————————
It took two days for the two to fly. After leaving the demonic forest, they passed through a wasteland, and it was not until the afternoon of the third day that they saw a small city in front of them, and they could faintly hear the lively voices of people.
"Master, it's here. Yi Qing stopped and put away the spirit sword.
"This is Xuantian Sect?" Shen Ying looked up at the words in front of the city gate, but found that he couldn't see clearly.
"It's not. Yi Qing shook his head, "This is the nearest monk city, Shunyu City." The Xuantian Sect is too far away, and if you use the sword alone, I'm afraid it will take half a month to reach the mountain gate. There is a teleportation formation in this city, which can be transmitted directly to Xuantian Sect. ”
"Oh. "I didn't understand much, but I think there was a shortcut here.
Yi Qing led the people into the city, through the lively streets, all the way to the most central place. It wasn't until I came to a small square with the most people that I stopped. There are a lot of people here, some in groups of three or five, some walking alone, all by one, forming a long line, as if they are waiting for something.
Yi Qing took Shen Ying to the back of the line, pointed to the front and said, "Master, the teleportation array is in front, and we can get to Xuantian Sect in a while." ”
"Hmm. Shen Ying nodded solemnly, a little sleepy, and didn't have the energy to look around.
The team walked very fast, and in less than a moment they were at the front. Only then did Shen Ying see clearly that on the ground in the middle, there was a glowing pattern, some of which looked like a magic array in some animation, and there were four stone pillars standing around it, and there were some unknown words written on them. As soon as the person walks into the picture, he disappears.
It turned out that this was the teleportation array! Shen Ying suddenly had a real sense of crossing over.
"One fifty spirit beads!" the monk who was guarding the teleportation array stretched out his hand to the two of them.
Yi Qing habitually touched the storage bag on his side, but he felt empty, his body stiffened, and his face suddenly turned white.
"What's wrong?" Shen Ying glanced at him.
Yi Qing's face turned blue again, and he said in a low voice, "I forgot that the storage bag was lost during the fight with Rui Mi, Master...... Do you have any spirit beads?"
"What is a spirit bead?"
Yiqing: "......"
Guard: "......"
After crossing over, the first crisis Shen Ying encountered - no money!
