In the dark, there was the sound of "ticking, ticking" water.

The naked boy opened his weak eyes, his eyelids were tired and heavy, his head was still dizzy, and the feeling of powerlessness born from the exhaustion of his physical strength and even the complete depletion of his qi dominated his body.

Zhou Jiujian took a deep breath, and there was a piercing pain between the five insides, and he turned his head with difficulty to see that beside him was the wooden sword and sycamore, fortunately it was not lost, and not far away was the boulder that caused him to look like this, the culprit!

The young man sighed rarely, and after putting away the wooden sword, he suddenly didn't want to move anything, what kind of mountain practice, attainment of the Great Dao, revenge for his grandfather, and even going down the mountain to find Hu Qingluan, all kinds of things were left behind, no longer thinking about it, just lying here quietly, just fine.

After all, it is still a young man, if the body is too heavy, it is good to say that it is smooth sailing, if the road ahead is bumpy, what setbacks are encountered, and it is inevitable that you will think about whether to give up.

This is really human nature.

However, things in the world are probably just one wrong step, every step is wrong, and one step behind others may be the distance between heaven and earth, and the book also says: Everything is difficult at the beginning! If you give up lightly while you are still at the beginning, you are doomed to achieve nothing.

The boy squinted for a long time.

Thinking in my heart, what is the purpose of doing all this by myself?

People in the world often say: there is a providence in the dark.

The young man wondered, what was the providence of heaven? What about the providence of his Zhou Jiujian?

When he was a child, he was an orphan, and no one even knew his father's name, but fortunately he was taken in and raised by his grandfather, but at the age of ten, his grandfather passed away, and since then, Zhou Jiujian has carried a lot.

Maybe his providence has long been clear, there are always people who are responsible for Grandpa's death, and the strength of those people must be very strong, so he Zhou Jiujian must also be very strong, even stronger than them! Grandpa used to be a sword immortal, then he also has to become a sword immortal, a sword immortal like a sword armor, so that he will not be constrained in the future, and even become a pawn of others.

However, in the world, just talking about the vast land of Sword Continent, there are only a few sword immortals among all living beings?

The mountain is high and the road is long, and we still need to move forward steadily.

Cheering up, Zhou Jiujian supported his body with one hand and sat up.

Looking around, I don't know where I fell now.

Before he fell unconscious, the boy still remembered that the boulder next to him smashed the ground, and then his back was empty, and he lost consciousness.

It must have fallen somewhere again.

The boy was a little helpless, but now it's good, he doesn't even know where the way out is. Moreover, now in the body, there is no breath left, and the aura around is extremely thin, compared to the rich aura felt on the Ghost Hidden Peak earlier, the comparison between the two is tantamount to the difference between fertile soil and dry land.

Reaching out and touching his back again, he felt a trace of liquid, accompanied by pain, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it was when he fell just now, and the wound was cracked open again.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight.

Not far away, there is a small pool, and there are sharp and protruding stalactites on the dome, from which a little drop of water drops, and finally converges into a small pool below.

This cave, compared to the previous darkness, has a few sparkling glows, like lights embedded in the rock wall.

Zhou Jiujian struggled to crawl towards the small pool, his feet were sore and weak, and it was difficult to move for a while, let alone stand and walk.

Fortunately, the distance of the small waterhole is not far, five or six steps away, and it is not a problem.

A cold pool, where water droplets ripple and starlight refracted as they fall.

Reaching down, a slight feeling of coldness came from between the skin.

Zhou Jiujian plunged his head into the waterhole, the temperature of the waterhole here was lower than the clear spring and stream in the mountain, and the young man couldn't help but shiver when he was stirred by the cold water, and his mind was completely sober.

Then he roughly washed away the dirt on his face, which was a little comfortable and refreshing.

Although there is no exhaustive cleaning, it is better than nothing, after all, in today's situation, it is considered a long way to meet a pool.

"I don't know if it's day or night outside. ”

After a little washing, the boy sat up, sat on the edge of the pool, put his feet in the water, and looked at the stalactites dripping above his head, a little stunned.

People often say: there is no nail in the mountain, and the cold does not know the year. Once you are far away from the human track, living alone in the world, if you don't remember it in detail, you don't know it in general.

What's more, it is normal for a young man to be alone in a cave, and he still doesn't know the sunrise and sunset.

Without thinking about it, Zhou Jiujian shook his head, remembering that he still had to explore around now to see if he could find a way out.

I hope you really don't get so unlucky and get completely trapped here.

Moved his feet, it didn't seem to be a big problem, the injury on his calf didn't crack like his back, he stood up with both hands, and suddenly stumbled, Zhou Jiujian almost fell to the ground, and hurriedly stood firm.

Finding a direction, it looked quite deep, but it was not dark at all, and the boy walked forward step by step.

I don't know where the road leads or if there is a way out.

The sound of water droplets "ticking" gradually fades away until it completely disappears from the ears. As he walked, the road ahead became winding and secluded, and it became narrower and narrower, and after walking more than two hundred steps, there was only a small hole in front of him, judging by its size, it could only accommodate one person to get into, and it had to be not a tall person. Zhou Jiujian looked at it and realized that he should be able to get in.

I didn't hesitate at the moment, anyway, there were not many options and few ways to go, so it didn't hurt to go in and find out.

tightened the wooden sword at his waist to prevent it from falling, and then the whole person got into the hole.

It was extremely narrow and pitch black.

The feeling of a young man is like getting into the world, the captain who specializes in digging graves and robbing tombs, or the robbery hole dug by the mountain movers, and the road ahead is the thousand-year-old tomb.

It is especially difficult to flex the limbs, and the wounds on the back and shoulders are just against the rock wall in the cave, and the crawling will naturally rub against the rock wall, and the hot pain comes, and the boy can only grit his teeth and persevere, and crawl forward in the dark.

......

I don't know how long I crawled forward, but in the dark, he was extremely sensitive to the light source, and the boy suddenly found that there was a point of light in front of him.

He quickly rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking that he was hallucinating. If you look closely, you can see that the light source is still there, and it is not fake!

Export!

He was overjoyed, endured the pain from the friction of the wound, and accelerated his crawling speed, desperately wanting to crawl to the light source.

As the distance approached, the point of light gradually decreased, from the beginning like a bean, then to the size of a small stone, and then to the size of an adult's fist, still enlarged, until finally the entire light source penetrated the young man's embarrassed eyes, and then, he finally saw something outside the light source.

"Huh?"

The boy crawled out of the hole, then fell, and turned his head to see what he saw, but he was stunned for a while.

The place in front of me is still in a cave, but it is as bright as day!

Inside a huge cavern, hundreds of fist-like beads were piled up. The appearance of these beads is smooth and round, with dazzling white light, but inside the beads, it is transparent, and the things in it are clearly visible, they are gray and gray like mist, and before they get close, Zhou Jiujian feels a rich aura, for him who is now depleted of qi in his body, it is tantamount to rippling in the sea.

A strong intuition suddenly jumped into the boy's heart: "This is ...... Fog Beads?!"

His eyes widened with a look of disdain.

It seems that after a series of unlucky events, his luck suddenly fell from the sky?

Really, fake?

He rubbed his cheeks vigorously, but he still couldn't hide the joy on his face.

After the bitterness comes, it is not easy to cherish it in nature.

Whether it was true or not, the boy didn't want to think about it anymore, and immediately picked up a bead of fog in his hand.

There is no need to deliberately absorb it, and a compelling aura penetrates into the body from the meridians in the hand.

Like a long drought and rain, the originally depleted body, with the arrival of this aura, all circulated in an instant. Many blocked meridian rivers began to flow out, and then the water potential became larger, and the rivers and lakes were gradually formed by the flow of small streams.

The boy is really happy now!

After a lot of hard work, it finally paid off.

Hurriedly closed his eyes and entered the inner vision pranayama.

No time to waste!

Although the boy was surprised, he was not so bad that he lost his mind. At the same time as he saw these fog beads, he also realized that the fog swallowing beast was not here!

Immediately I also thought that there was no movement of the big red bird, although it was said that losing both or both, it was the best ending, and it was also the most beneficial to him Zhou Jiujian, but this was probably the best plan to do, but this probability was actually the lowest, and between the two, the possibility of one of them separating the winner was greater.

The most important thing for the young man is to rely on these fog beads to recover as soon as possible in order to deal with the troubles that may arise in the future.

It can be said that every second counts now.

The breath machine traveled around the body like a swimming dragon, opening up the blocked meridians, and then taking advantage of the abundant spiritual energy on the fog beads now, he ran the unique healing method of Zangjian Mountain, and repaired the injuries everywhere, focusing on the wounds on the back, and also focusing on healing.

However, the young man didn't know that with the constant aura, there were also wisps of gray threads, quietly breaking into his knots and meridians.

Unconsciously, the sword qi exercised in the acupuncture points and the fire became a little stronger, and the meridians were also quietly broadening!

Everything is going on quietly.
