Chapter 226: Burning the Pasture
Li Xuan looked in the direction pointed by Jin Shui, and saw that a shiny ice bridge had formed between the two cliffs at some point. 23US. Fastest update This ice bridge is exquisitely clear, like made of crystal, more like the place where the heavenly palace Qionglin fairyland is, although each ice-wrapped rattan is irregular, but in the shining moonlight, each one is so clear and lovely. He was stunned and said: "No wonder the map is marked here, 'If you know astronomy, you will get twice the result with half the effort, if you know how to build bridges, you will get twice the result with half the effort, if you don't have both, you will never cross for life.'" It looks like we're going to cross the cliff and have to rely on this ice bridge. ”
The rest of the people also looked at it with straight eyes, and it felt like they had entered a dream, and they were all amazed. Only Jin Shui slapped happily and couldn't stop saying, "Let's go, let's go." After here, it is an infinite smooth road, and after here, you can see the stone gate of the Medicine King Valley. Li Xuan and everyone climbed the ice bridge in their hearts, and found that although it was a little slippery, it was unusually strong, and they were excited, Jin Shui said again: "Hurry up, this ice bridge only has a stick of incense!"
The bridge was also smooth, but not long after crossing the bridge, the moonlight suddenly disappeared, and the white sky suddenly darkened and could not see the five fingers. Everyone was puzzled, and suddenly saw the downpour falling, and in a blink of an eye, the ice bridge turned into rattan, and the mountains and cliffs returned to the appearance of rattan leisurely and misty clouds. Li Xuanzheng sighed that the heavens and the earth were fantastic, and there was no way to change, but he saw Yuan Si girl leap to the edge of the cliff, pull out the golden sword, and with a wave of his hand, he had cut off dozens of ancient vines that had grown for thousands of years.
The ancient vines slid towards the cliff like a ribbon, and although the remaining ancient vines were still clinging to the cliff rattans, dozens of main vines were gone, and it would be difficult to bear the weight of the frozen bridge, let alone walk on it. Jin Laoke exclaimed: "Evil woman, what are you doing here, you don't want to leave a way back?"
Miss Yuan glanced at him and said coldly: "The way back? The road was gone, and there was no turning back. After finishing speaking, he sneered a few times, stepped forward and took Jin Shui's hand and slowly climbed up the cliff.
Li Xuan saw that the way back was broken, and for some reason he suddenly felt relaxed in his heart. Fighting against the water, putting him to death and then coming back to life, whether this trip can rescue Ling Long, whether he can catch Ding Cangqiong, whether he can kill Nangong Zhenshi, whether he is alive or dead suddenly becomes no longer important. He looked up to the sky and laughed a few times and said, "Let's go, since there is no way out, wouldn't it be better to move forward." ”
Over the cliff, the back cliff is very gentle, and as far as the eye can see, there is a large flat grassland at the foot of the mountain covered by the melting moonlight. They took advantage of the moonlight to go down, and in the second half of the night, they arrived at the vast meadow at the foot of the mountain. The grass was knee-deep, swaying with the wind, coming in waves, and going away in waves, like the waves of the sea, more like the undulating chest of a lover. In the depths of the grass waves, dozens of scattered unknown trees fell full of moonlight, facing the sky like a hand, and the time outlined the tranquility between heaven and earth. Some insects are unwilling to be lonely and sing in a low voice, under the moon in the breezy grassland, and the bright moon and the wind play together, which sounds intoxicating.
Only then did everyone come down from the wind and snow cliff, and before they could recover their senses, they entered such a large flat grassland intertwined with the fragrance of moonlight and grass, and they were immediately deeply fascinated. Li Xuan took a hard breath, feeling that the fragrance of natural plants and trees melted from the inside out.
He walked forward with Yuan Si Girl and Jin Shui, and said in his heart: "Now in the cold season, the grass here is actually slightly yellow. Hey, if it's spring, it won't be a sea of flowers. Is this really the way to the Valley of the Medicine King? Look, it is peaceful and quiet, there is no semi-murderous atmosphere, although there are no blooming peach blossoms, but it contains all the artistic conceptions of the paradise. Yuan Yufeng walked behind Li Xuan and said in a low voice: "Li Shaoxia, is there such a large grassland on the map?"
Li Xuan thought for a while and affirmed: "There is a description of this grassland. ”
Yuan Yufeng shook his head and said, "In this way, we have to be faster." There were no words all the way, and everyone didn't know that they had run out of dozens of miles, and they didn't know where the golden water was going to take them, but they saw a light flashing in front of them. Miss Yuan Si turned around and motioned for everyone to keep silent, jumped lightly to Li Xuan's side, and said, "We have arrived near the stone gate of the Medicine King Valley. You see, there is a light in front of you is the residence of the Medicine King Valley Beast Supervisor to release horses. ”
Li Xuan saw that Miss Yuan Si took the initiative to remind herself, and couldn't help but be stunned, and looked intently, and saw that at the foot of a gentle slope in front of her, there were three or four thatched huts with lights on. At this time, a thin cloud blocked the moonlight like a light veil, and the light appeared extremely bright.
He gently tightened his clothes and said in a low voice, "Since you have arrived near the stone gate of the Medicine King Valley, you can't be careless." Stay here, and I'll go and see. He was about to fly over to check, but was stopped by Miss Yuan Si. Miss Yuan Si changed her cold appearance before, and sighed: "Brother Shui, the people waiting here are much more powerful than the medicine supervisor and the divine prison, you have to be careful." He pointed to a large circle of wooden stakes on the west side of the hut, and said in a deep voice: "There is a sheep-headed monster horse over there." These strange horses are smart and sensitive, not only have the vigor of horses, but also have the personality of wolves, if they are not alarmed, I am afraid it will be difficult. ”
Before Li Xuan could respond, Yuan Yufeng had already leaned over and said lightly: "Sheep-headed monster horse, is it really time for me to show my skills." Li Shaoxia, I will go with you, and when the time comes, I will let you see how I sprinkle the 'sleeping powder' that can make the beasts sleep, and how I can make those beasts bow their heads. Li Xuan was overjoyed and said, "Please come, that's what you want." Then, taking Yuan Yufeng's hand, he jumped forward, and leaned towards the lit hut like a wild goose sweeping through the air.
The rest of the people couldn't help but get nervous when they saw Li Xuan and Yuan Yufeng flying away, and thought that the infamous Medicine King Gu Shimen was close in front of them. Miss Yuan Si picked up a few fallen leaves in the grass and held them in her mouth with everyone, so as not to startle the snake.
Li Xuan and Yuan Yufeng stopped when they were more than twenty feet away from the hut. Raise your eyes and see that these three or four thatched huts are connected horizontally, respectively about seven or eight zhang high, at least fifty or sixty zhang on the left and right, although the walls of the house are made of yellow mud mixed with hay, the materials are simpler, but they look very much like a strong castle, if there is no giant wooden hammer to smash it, it is extremely difficult to destroy it.
He motioned for Yuan Yufeng to lean over the stake circle on the left, and he leaped up, gliding silently towards the back of the house with the knee-high tip of the grass. Slid to the back of the house, did not wait to fall, slapped one palm on the tip of the grass, and the figure immediately jumped out of thin air like a spring and landed on the house.
The room was brightly lit, but there was no sound, except for the strange sound of 'chirp, chirp', and the silence was faintly unsettling.
Li Xuan hooked the wooden beam under the eaves with one arm, his figure slowly bent down, and he looked into the house near the window, and couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that beside a huge wooden table in the room, there were three black-faced giants with a height and waist circumference like a drum eating, and the strange sound of 'haw, haw, haw' was the sound from the mouths of these three giants. Although Li Xuan was surprised by the magnificent figures of the three big men, he couldn't help but laugh when he saw the three of them eating. It turned out that each of these three people was holding a foot-wide sea bowl, stuffing their heads, and eating heartily. But when he looked closely at what they were eating, he couldn't help but feel disgusted, it turned out that the three black-faced giants had eaten unknown drenched flesh that had not been steamed.
He saw that there was no abnormality inside and outside the house, so he turned upside down and went up to the house again, and saw from a distance that Jin Laoke, Yuan Si Girl, Jin Shui, Du Chun, Sha Mantian, Dou Mugao, and He Xian Du had slowly leaned over, and they were only thirty or fifty zhang away from the thatched house, and Yuan Yufeng was also hunched over at this time, and when he slowly approached the circle surrounded by wooden stakes, he was sprinkling medicinal powder into the circle of wooden stakes.
If Yuan Yufeng can control the sheep-headed monster horses and prevent them from making a sound, he can enter the house first to deal with the three black-faced giants without alarming the rest of the people in the house. Li Xuan thought secretly, listened attentively, and the sheep-headed monster horse in the stake circle still did not move, so he put his mind at ease, beckoned to Jin Laoke and the others, and signaled them to slowly lurk behind the house and act at the opportunity.
He turned over and hooked the eaves, and saw that the three black-faced giants in the house were still chewing their heads, knowing that this was a good opportunity for a sneak attack, he stretched out his right palm, and with a very soft yin strength, he broke the window wood, flashed in like electricity, and pointed out like the wind, towards the waist and eye of one of the black-faced giants. At the moment when his fingertips had not touched the waist of the black-faced man, he suddenly heard the sharp screams of Jin Laoke outside the house.
The screams were terrifying, especially in such a strange dark night and in the house. Li Xuan's heart tightened, feeling that Jin Laoke seemed to have been bitten by a monster in the throat, although the cry was sharp, but it stopped in an instant, he instinctively retracted his fingers, leaned short, and quietly got under the table while the other two black-faced giants looked up at each other.
He didn't know what was going on outside, but his instincts told him that something strange was going to happen to everyone outside. The three black-faced giants didn't notice Li Xuan entering the house, put down the giant bowl, and screamed a few times to each other, as if communicating in their own language. Li Xuan was surprised when he heard this, and was thinking about what to do, when he suddenly heard the sound of hooves outside, as if thousands of troops rushed over.
The sound of hooves was clear and distinct in the dark night, rumbling like a huge thunder in the ears, and the earth trembled with it. Li Xuan's heart was shocked when he heard this, and after seeing the three black-faced giants hear the sound of hooves, their huge eyes immediately turned blood-red, and they all shook their arms as thick as buckets, and they roared a few times and rushed out of the door. The opportunity was rare, at the moment when the black-faced giant man stepped forward to the door, Li Xuan supported himself on the ground with one palm, flew out from under the table, and used the empty phase marrow washing skill in the air, and slapped three palms, hitting the back of the heads of the three black-faced giants respectively. These three palms are all shot with soft strength, although there is no wind and thunder, but it is very deadly. The three black-faced giants were defenseless, staggering and roaring a few times and fell to the ground. But at this moment, there was a sudden 'boom' on the four walls of the hut, and a gust of wind swept in, and fifty or sixty sheep-headed monster horses rushed into the house, tearing everything in the house to pieces.
Li Xuan was stunned by this sudden incident, and before his mind could react, the sheep-headed monster horse had rushed over like crazy. If you are someone else, if you are not trampled into a pulp, you will be trampled to pieces. However, Li Xuan has the protection of the Divine Skill Body Shield, and in terms of his current strength, any attack within ten zhang, the Divine Power Body Shield will react the strongest. A few sheep-headed monster horses rushed into the house, and they were blocked by the natural strength of his divine power body shield.
It was this half-step time that Li Xuan had already reacted.
He jumped up with a long roar, like the sound of fireworks on the flat ground, jumped seven or eight feet, penetrated the thatched house, and flew out of the house. The others did not land, but looked down and saw that the pasture where the moonlight had melted before had become chaotic at some point.
Fifty or sixty sheep-headed strange horses went on a rampage, all like sharp knives swept through knee-high grass, and rushed to the southeast in a frenzy.
Li Xuan twisted his body in the air and landed more than 20 zhang away from the thatched hut, and saw Yuan Si Girl, Jin Shui, Du Chun, Sha Mantian, Dou Mugao, and He Xian Duzheng wielding their blades and fighting with more than a dozen black-faced giants. In this moment of confusion, there was another rumbling of hooves in the east, and in the moonlight, fifty or sixty sheep-headed strange horses turned back at some point, and rushed towards the people who were entangled together.
Li Xuan's heart was beating in shock, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly passed through his heart: "Where is Yuan Yufeng? According to his ability to control strange beasts, he should never alarm the sleeping sheep-headed monster horse, not to mention that he also shot into the stake circle to make the beasts sleep 'sleeping powder'...... Could it be ......?" he didn't have time to think deeply, for the sheep's head and horse were already rushing towards the west wind.
No one can resist the impact of the crazy sheep-headed monster horse, even if Li Xuan dodges with the naturally generated divine power body shield, there is also an element of luck. Yuan Si Girl, Jin Shui, Du Chun, Sha Mantian, Dou Mugao, and He Xian Du were forced to retreat by more than a dozen black-faced giants, shrinking into an increasingly circle. Li Xuan saw that these black-faced giants didn't seem to know the word pain, and after they were stabbed by Du Chun, Dou Mugao, and He Xian with knives, swords, and three-edged blades, although the blood flowed profusely, they still relied on the six brutal techniques of smashing, picking, pulling, grabbing, and throwing to attack fiercely.
The sheep-headed monster horse is getting closer and closer, and if you don't make a move, Yuan Si and the others and more than a dozen black-faced giants will be trampled into pulp.
The moonlight sprinkled in the wilderness, the sound of hooves, and the wind blowing, Li Xuan's heart moved, and without thinking about it, he flew over the sky above the vicious fight between Yuan Si and the girls, faced the sheep-headed monster horse, took out the fire fold, and threw it into the knee-high long grass after 'popping'. The fire folded in the air and slid in a graceful arc and landed on the meadow, and with a sigh, the flames rose five or six feet high.
The wind helped the fire, and it spread rapidly, and the sheep-headed monster horse was downwind from east to west, and the tongue of fire five or six feet high rolled mercilessly, and immediately wrapped them in it. The meadows that were as quiet as a paradise were immediately transformed into a sea of fire and burning graves.
The sheep-headed monster horse screamed as it was burned by the fire, and it was scurrying around with flames. Li Xuan was worried that the rampage sheep-headed monster horse would hurt Yuan Si and the girls, so he stepped forward and slammed his palms a few times, knocking the two black-faced giants to the ground, opening the gap, and running against the wind with everyone.
Originally, the wind was blowing from the west, and the fire should continue to burn eastward, but the sheep's head monster horse scurried with the flames, and burned in the northwest, southwest, and northeast directions. After a while, this grassland has become a purgatory on earth, and although more than a dozen black-faced men have infinite strength, because of their clumsy bodies, they were caught in the tongue of fire after not running a few steps, lying down in the sea of fire, and constantly emitting people's 'sigh' miserable sounds.
Li Xuan saw that there was a fire in front of and behind him, and he was a little anxious, but he heard Yuan Si girl say: "Hurry up to the halfway slope of the mountain, the stone gate of the Medicine King Valley is there." When everyone heard this, they all started to run lightly, but they only ran out of more than forty feet, and saw a figure in front of them, and one of them rode a sheep-headed monster horse that was not burned in front of them. When Li Xuan saw it, he shouted: "It seems that you are playing ghosts." (To be continued.) )
