Chapter 44: The Mire
The giant python that drilled through the ribs of the ghost guard, wound along the bright skeleton, and in the blink of an eye, it was like a rope that tied the ghost guard like a dumpling, unable to move. Then, he opened his bloody mouth and took a bite at the neck of the ghost guard.
"Khooth. ”
The python's mouth sounded as if it were biting on fine iron, but such a heavy blow made the ghost guard lose his skin.
Li Heng shook his head helplessly, looking at the ghost guard who kept stretching out his arms and faintly wanted to break free from the shackles of the giant python, especially at the knife edge. He hurriedly ordered the remaining three herring fish to rush forward, wrapping around the neck of the ghost guard and biting indiscriminately.
"Goo, goo...... ,”
The ghost guard let out a few strange screams angrily, but his hands were tied, and there was a heavy knife that was rising in anger, and he couldn't use it, so he could only desperately prop up his arms......
Bang, just a few breaths of time, Li Heng's worries finally became a reality, the giant python was injured, and it couldn't withstand the huge pulling force, so it broke off with a bang.
The blood-colored python let out an unwilling scream, slipped off the ghost guard, fell into the quagmire, struggled a few times and became lifeless, and began to dissolve into a trace of black ash qi, which was blown by the wind and slowly dissipated.
The spirit sword was finished, thinking that nearly 10,000 spirit stones would disappear, Li Heng's face twitched, but fortunately, the blue fish was still quite ferocious, and the neck of the ghost guard, which had only a few bones, was bitten open in half of these breaths.
But how could the ghost guard who broke free from the restraint with both hands allow the herring to continue to wreak havoc, it raised its heavy knife burning with black flames and wanted to slash at its neck, but when the blade was close to its neck, it still hesitated, threw the knife aside, and grabbed it with both hands.
However, the herring itself is not big, and the ghost guard's hands are very clumsy, and he rushed left and right for a long time, but he didn't catch half of it, and in a fit of anger, he opened his mouth and roared, hoping to get rid of the herring.
Seeing this, Li Heng smiled contemptuously at the corner of his mouth, although there was not much spiritual energy left in his body, he still had strength, he had a direct confrontation with the ghost guard before, and knew that there was not much difference in strength. He took a leap and landed beside the Ghost Guard, taking advantage of the Ghost Guard's busy fishing, he swung his fist covered in purple shards and slammed it towards its head.
In the panic, the ghost guard also knew that if this punch hit its little head, it didn't know if the head was okay, and its neck would definitely be broken, so it hurriedly raised its right arm to block it.
Compared with the experience of hand-to-hand combat, as well as the speed of strain, Ghost Wei was Li Heng's opponent, he suddenly turned his fist into a palm, grabbed Ghost Guard's right wrist, twisted and pulled, and pushed Ghost Wei down in the quagmire.
Poor ghost guard, since he awakened his consciousness, how has he ever been in such a fight, he only knows how to rattle his yellow teeth, but he doesn't know how to resist......
Click, the last bone on the ghost guard's neck was finally bitten off by the herring, Li Heng felt that his hand was loosened, and the bones in the ghost guard's body collapsed like building blocks, scattered into a pile, only the head still had a little consciousness, and continued to rattle the rotten teeth.
The ghost guard when the soul was not extinguished, the value was the greatest, he took out the fairy pot, but he hesitated before preparing to refine, and knocked the ghost guard's mouth full of rotten teeth, he was not disgusted with the beast bones of the giant ape clan, but the mouth full of rotten teeth still forget it.
I don't know if it is because of the smelting of the ghost guard soul, this time the spirit wine in the immortal pot has a trace of origin color, exuding a wild and long-lasting atmosphere, Li Heng tasted a few drops, the wine is very strong, after drinking it all in one gulp, not only the hard work consumed, but also the divine consciousness that he cares about the most has also increased significantly.
At that moment, he wanted to take out the iron sword and give it a try, but when he saw that the ghost vine not far away showed a hint of activity, and then thought that Senior Sister Namo was still waiting for treatment in the back, he had to extinguish that strong thought.
He walked over to the limp ghost vine, grabbed the vine with both hands, and uprooted the ghost vine with all his strength. Only then did he realize that the long roots of the ghost vine were tightly wrapped around a fist-sized iron box.
Gathered a ball of clear water, cleaned the iron box, and opened it to see, but it was a folded animal skin and a jade plaque.
The animal skin, looking at the material, is very similar to the hidden mountain remnant picture he obtained from Wei Laosan, but this animal skin is quite neatly cut, the skin is simply painted with mountains and rivers, and the middle is also dotted with red, which is estimated to be an important place.
The river depicted on the map was so unfamiliar that he could not tell the direction for a while, so he had to put it back in the tin box and throw it into a storage bag for a closer look at it later.
As for the ghost vine, Li Heng did not hesitate to soak it in wine and eat it, if he could make the iron sword, why would he lose a top-level spirit sword when he fought with the ghost guard before.
I don't know how long that thing has been growing in this swamp, and the effect of the spirit wine brewed is only a little inferior to that ghost guard, and the taste is also good, much more delicious than the fairy pot brewed by itself.
In fact, ghost vines are not common in the Jade Hill Realm, so it takes at least a hundred years to grow a ghost vine, and it is worth about 100,000 spirit stones.
Eating more than 100,000 spirit stones in one bite, I'm afraid that only he can do it.
After refining the ghost guard and the ghost vine, the most valuable thing on the battlefield is the heavy knife of the ghost guard, but the fairy pot of this thing is not accepted, otherwise Li Heng will not be polite.
After the death of the ghost guard, this heavy knife still rose with black flames, which was indescribably strange, Li Heng tried several times but couldn't use the black flame, so he could only throw it into the bag.
The rest of the skeletons and corpses, he didn't waste them, he took out the Xuanyin Array Banner and collected them all, although the grade is not good, but it is better than nothing.
Then, after he checked it again, and after there were no mistakes, he found Mo Yuqing's flying sword and walked towards the place where she was resting......
After a moment of rest, Mo Yuqing's expression looked much better.
The injury of the red spotted leopard was quite serious, and Li Heng put it into the beast ring to recuperate. Instead, the blue-striped bird was released and flew into the air. Although it could not see through the gray mist of the Falling Feather Swamp, it had a good view, at least not so that he would not lose his way in the swamp.
Mo Yuqing saw that Li Heng who came out of the gray fog was unharmed, and said in surprise, "Senior Brother Li......"
Li Heng smiled at him, handed over the flying sword, and said indifferently, "The ghost guard has run away, and the ghost vine is missing, so it should be safe for the time being." How is the injury of the senior sister? ”
In this matter, he lied, he couldn't tell Mo Yuqing that those two things were eaten by him.
In the matter of the ghost guard, Mo Yuqing didn't care too much, in her opinion, Li Heng was able to drive the ghost guard away, so how could she think more.
"It's just that the sea is damaged, and it's inconvenient to fight with people, but nothing else matters. She struggled to her feet from the ground and took the flying sword.
Hearing this, Li Heng looked at the gray mist that was still permeating the surroundings, and said softly, "If it's okay, let's go on the road early, this falling feather swamp is too gloomy for senior sister to recover." ”
"Hmm. Mo Yuqing listened to Li Heng's words, knew the reason, endured the stinging pain from the sea, and took a step forward, but this step was stepped on a puddle, the soil in the puddle was extremely soft, she suddenly lost her balance and fell forward.
In a panic, someone stretched out an arm and held her firmly. The place where she started was as solid as a rock, and she felt at ease.
"Be careful. Li Heng said softly.
Mo Yuqing nodded gratefully, although her feet were stable, her heart seemed to be a mess, knowing that she was sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire......
Helped Mo Yuqing to walk for a while, but the place where the previous battle was fought was still in sight, Li Heng's brows were slightly furrowed, and he might not be able to walk out of the Luoyu Swamp for ten days according to this move. He knew that Mo Yuqing had tried his best, and he clearly felt the tremors on her body several times, which was because of the severe pain.
If there was a flying artifact, the problem would be solved, but unfortunately it was just an idea.
He turned to look at Mo Yuqing, whose forehead was covered with cold sweat, and said apologetically, "Senior sister, I'm offended." ”
After speaking, he didn't care whether Mo Yuqing agreed or not, put her on his back, and walked forward with her on his back. This is the second time he has carried Mo Yuqing, of course, the first time it was a little almost fragrant, but this time the two of them were closer, but he didn't realize it, and his attention was completely focused on the muddy black soil under his feet.
The ghost knows, if there is a second ghost vine in this swamp, and if there will be another ghost guard suddenly appearing. This falling feather swamp is in the jade slip of the Hidden Mountain Secret Realm in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, but it is ranked in the top ten.
For Mo Yuqing behind him, he only felt a little surprisingly quiet, but his attention was instantly attracted by a message sent back by the blue-veined bird.
It was the center of the Falling Feather Swamp, and a large cloud of gray mist was surging like a huge wave in the sea, and with the help of the eyes of the blue-veined bird, a huge figure was faintly aware of slowly moving in the sea of fog.
The place where the gray mist is surging, it is only twenty or thirty miles away from the location of him and Mo Yuqing, if this distance is placed in an open place, it can be seen clearly at a glance, but in this place where the field of vision is difficult to reach, if there is no blue-striped bird, he may only know that it is abnormal.
He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, he had underestimated this hidden mountain secret realm before, so he hurriedly adjusted his direction and made a detour.
Mo Yuqing, who knew that the sea was still tingling, knew that they had just avoided life and death. On Li Heng's back, she was still a little uncomfortable at first, and struggled a little before she lay quietly on Li Heng's back, and a pair of hands went around Li Heng's armpits and intertwined in her thick chest.
As time passed, the tense body slowly became relaxed, and a trace of dependence on the solid back gradually developed.
The puddle of bewitching blisters that bubbled up from time to time under her feet no longer made her feel uncomfortable. I no longer worry about whether a fierce spirit will emerge from the endless gray mist.
She felt that it didn't seem to be a tiring thing to lie on her stomach like this for the rest of her life.
The passing wind brought a faint smell of a strange man from time to time, and she became familiar with it before she knew it......
