Section 40: Little People and Legends
Zao Wou-Ki looked at Yue Xiao, who was pale, perhaps because of excessive bleeding, and was thirsty, so that the sound of his father and mother woke up Zao Wou-Ki, who was not sleeping deeply. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Looking at Yue Xiao, Zao Wou-Ki slowly couldn't get down.
"Hey, forget it, I don't know. Zao Wou-Ki shook his head, put away the dagger, and continued to crouch in the pit before falling asleep.
And just after Zao Wou-Ki fell asleep, Chongsan, who had been lying in the pit and had been at the mercy of others, slowly opened his eyes, but he didn't make any movement, not even a sound, just glanced in the direction where Zao Wou-Ki was, and frowned slightly, for this Zao Wou-ki, Chongsan was familiar, when facing Cheng Lan before, he was still worried, but as a businessman, Zao Wou-Ki was indeed very good, and his joy and anger were invisible.
It's just that why did he face Yue Xiao with a dagger? Chongsan was puzzled.
For this river and lake, there are definitely not many things that can give Chongsan a headache, but why did this little man in his eyes, Zao Wou-ki, do something that made Chongsan deeply puzzled?
But fortunately, you didn't start, otherwise, you wouldn't be able to get out of this fallen spirit again, Chongsan said silently in his heart.
Although he has the poison of absolute martial arts in his body, he can only rely on Mo Yugong to forcibly reverse his internal force, but this is the risk of going mad, when the poison of absolute martial arts attacked, Yue Xiao had rescued him many times, Yue Xiao was a pure person, and Chongsan regarded him as his brother.
You know, those who can be regarded as brothers by Chongsan can be counted on one hand in this world.
Yue Xiao didn't know that he had just walked around the ghost gate twice overnight.
Cheng Lan slept deeply, not knowing anything about what Zao Wou-Ki had done before dawn.
As for Chongsan, he still pretended to faint.
So much so that after dawn, the first one to wake up was Yue Xiao.
"Water...... cough cough...... "Yue Xiao was bleeding a lot because of his serious injury last night, and now his mouth is dry, and the first thing he said when he woke up was to ask for water."
Then it was Zao Wou-Ki who woke up, Zao Wou-Ki looked at Cheng Lan, who was sleeping very soundly, smiled slightly, and then looked at Chongsan, for this person who had never seen it but knew the details well, in his heart, fear occupied more than ninety percent of the nine.
Zao Wou-Ki didn't bother the three of them, but quietly walked out of the sand pit, and after a while, he came back with a wine jug, but the wine jug was full of snow, and he only needed to put the wine jug in his arms for a while, and the snow water could naturally be drunk.
And what Yue Xiao lacks now is this life-saving water.
After about a stick of incense, Cheng Lan rubbed her eyes, and finally woke up from her deep sleep, but last night she was squatting on the ground and falling asleep with her hands supporting her head, but now she is lying on the ground half-lying.
Under the thick layer of frozen sand, it was cold and abnormal after all.
"Water ......" Yue Xiao spoke again.
As soon as Cheng Lan woke up, she heard Yue Xiao's voice.
Suddenly, he couldn't care about any sleeping position, and went straight to Yue Xiao.
But maybe his feet were sore and numb when he was sleeping, and he fell to the ground before he could get up.
"Oops......" Cheng Lan fell to the ground, only sighed slightly, then stood up, patted the sand on her body, and then half-squatted towards Yue Xiao.
Picking up Yue Xiao's right hand, he screamed with joy.
"What kind of body is this, so powerful, it recovers so quickly?" Cheng Lan looked at Yue Xiao with a surprised expression.
And Chongsan was also awakened by Cheng Lan's scream.
"Well, he shed a lot of blood, and if he didn't give him water, he wouldn't be killed, and he died of thirst. Zao Wou-Ki looked at Cheng Lan and ignored his existence as a big living person.
"Hehe, Zao Wou-ki, what you said is yes, but where is the water now?" Cheng Landong looked around, and then found that there was sand all around, where is the water?
"Oh, give!" Zao Wou-Ki didn't say much, but handed Cheng Lan a wine jug.
"It's ...... Wine?" Cheng Lan asked puzzled, looking at the wine jug in her hand.
"No, it's snow. Zao Wou-Ki said.
"Oh, that's it, if it's wine, it's even better. Cheng Lan said.
After Cheng Lan finished speaking, she opened the wine jug, and then poured the water into Yue Xiao's mouth.
"Leave me some ......" Chongsan behind him has been silent since he woke up, but he is also very thirsty at the moment, so he said.
"Oh. Cheng Lan replied.
......
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Wuji looked at the three people in front of him, one was seriously injured, one couldn't use his internal force, and the third was a woman, just like that, the trio who didn't seem to do any harm to others actually appeared in the most bizarre place in the Northwest Wilderness - Falling Spirit.
"I'm here to pay off my debts, and now that the debts have been paid off, it's time for me to go. Yue Xiao said.
I just said to go, but I didn't mean to get up.
Cheng Lan and the others also knew what Yue Xiao meant.
Zhao Wuji didn't ask deeply, in fact, he knew very well in his heart what Yue Xiao meant by the so-called repayment of debts, but in order to hide that he was just passing by, he asked why they appeared in Luoling.
"I have the poison of the martial arts in my body, and this place is the extreme cold land in the northwest, so I came here to suppress the spread of the poison. "Chongsandao
"Vice General Chong is really a hero, if it were an ordinary person, if he was poisoned by the martial arts, he would have been sleeping in the loess for a long time, but Vice General Chong can still use his internal force, he really deserves to be a hero of the Tianling Dynasty. Zao Wou-Ki yearns infinitely, but in his heart he is thinking about how to please Chongsan.
It's just that this point is careful, how can Chongsan not know.
He has seen a lot of such people.
Chongsan glanced at Zao Wou-Ki slightly, smiled slightly, and did not speak.
"I came with Vice Admiral Chong to help him detoxify. "Cheng Landao.
"What about you?" Yue Xiao looked at Zao Wou-Ki.
"I, I'm just a small person, but I've traveled some places, often wandering between the Heavenly Spirit Dynasty, the Barbarians, and the Vassal Kingdoms. Zao Wou-Ki said slowly.
"Little people?" Chongsan asked with a smile when he looked at Zao Wou-Ki when he heard this.
When Yue Xiao and Cheng Lan heard Chongsan's words, they heard something, and they also looked at Zhao Wouji.
"Haha, Vice Admiral Chong can afford to look down on me, I'm just a businessman, wandering between the Three Kingdoms, why not?" Zao Wou-Ki said without being intimidated by Chongsan's identity.
"At this time, it is a critical period for the war between my Heavenly Spirit Dynasty and the two armies of the vassal state, you say that you are just a businessman, who would believe it?" Chongsan stared at Zhao Wuji with both eyes, and Chongsan, who had been smiling before, actually became cold in an instant, adding a bit of chill to this extremely cold place in the northwest.
Yue Xiao and Cheng Lan also looked at Zhao Wouji, maybe this is a spy.
After Chongsan's words, the four of them fell silent in an instant.
Everyone has their own ideas.
Zao Wou-Ki didn't expect Chongsan to think like this, but yes, this is the critical moment when the two countries are at war, and it is normal for him to be suspected, but he came from a vassal country, but he brought a lot of news.
Chongsan wanted to see how Zao Wou-Ki responded, while Yue Xiao was thinking about the fuse that provoked this war - the Hongchen woman he loved.
Are you okay over there?" Yue Xiao couldn't help but reach out and take out a penny hanging around his neck.
Cheng Lan thought for a while, and was the first to break the silence.
"He's not a spy, if he's a spy, then why did he save you?" Cheng Lan looked at Chongsan with a displeased expression.
Cheng Lan's meaning is obvious, he saved you, even if you are not grateful, you still suspect that the other party is a spy? Isn't this revenge.
"I'm just a small person, the country's righteousness, I don't understand, but I know, I'm a businessman, where there is money to make, I will go, and at this moment, because of the drought, I went to ......" Zao Wou-Ki said.
It's just that Zao Wou-ki's words surprised Chongsan.
There is money to be made, and there is money to be made on the side of the domain, but why would Yuan Shengnan invade the Heavenly Spirit on a large scale?
"Looks like you're making a lot of money. Chongsan didn't show the doubts in his heart, and even if he did, they might not understand the stakes.
"Hey, it's a long story, we didn't make any money, but we suffered a big loss, and the vassal kingdom seized all our grain. Zao Wou-Ki said hatefully.
"Forget it, it's really boring to say this, but for Vice General Chong, you have the poison of martial arts, but I heard in Barbarian Qiang that there is a strange Gu that can cure all kinds of poisons, so I don't know if it's true or not. ”
"Oh, what kind of legend is it, and there is such a strange Gu?" Compared with the problems of spies and food, Chongsan is more concerned about the poison of the martial arts on his body.
"It is rumored that there is a strange Gu in the Barbarian Qiang, called the Blood Gu, speaking of the Blood Gu, but there are many legends, but the most passed on in the Barbarian Qiang is the most credible, that is, with the body of a woman, raising Gu worms, and then after having sex with a man, the woman can obtain a strong power in a short time, and the man can obtain the inheritance of the Blood Gu, with the ability to be invulnerable. Zao Wou-Ki said slowly.
"Is there such a strange thing in this world?" Cheng Lan listened attentively, and was very interested in this barbaric blood Gu legend, can he have the ability to be invulnerable to a hundred poisons? If this can be used for detoxification, it is not a huge innovation.
Chongsan was also thinking about it, he seemed to have heard of this brute blood Gu, but he had forgotten it.
And Yue Xiao, who had been listening carefully, frowned, as if he had discovered something.
"You said that blood Gu can only be manifested after men and women have sex together?" Yue Xiao asked Zao Wou-Ki.
"That's right. Zao Wou-Ki was very sure.
"Then what about the woman you said about gaining great power in a short period of time?" Yue Xiao continued to ask.
"This, I don't know, I just heard an old man from Barbarian Qiang, this is just a legend, if there is really any blood Gu, then Barbarian Qiang will not rely on this to directly rush into the heavenly spirit." Zao Wou-Ki was thinking more.
"Oh, well, I hope I'm thinking too much. Yue Xiao touched the penny hanging around his neck, and said a little lonely.
However, Yue Xiao made a decision in his heart, go to Barbarian!
"What's the matter? miss her again?" Seeing Yue Xiao like this, Chongsan knew that Yue Xiao must have wanted to spend money, but why didn't he want that woman who loved money?
