Chapter 53: Tracing the Origins
"It seems that I can't drink this pot of plum branches and new snow today. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Daoist, please come with me. Su Yan slowly walked into the house with a teapot and motioned for Xuan Ming to follow.
Su Ruo was still recuperating in the hall of the post station with her eyes closed, her face was calm, and she was eternal. By the time Su Yan told her what Xuan Ming had discovered, the creaking and cracking of the ice on the river had already come from outside the post station, and the Blood Refining Sect's building boat was about to arrive.
There was a bang, and someone banged on the door. The foot wind caused by the rapid step brought the snow chips outside the door to the ground, and the person who came was Qiu Feng, who had already changed into a black and red flying Han Gate costume.
"Miss Su Ruo, Miss Su Qi, Sister Wuyou asked me to remind you to evacuate. Brother Xuanming is also here, just leave together, have you ever found Chu Yudi?"
Su Yan pointed to the back hall and said, "Liu Ming is still asleep." ”
Qiu Feng went to the back hall without saying a word, and said, "I'll carry him." ”
When Qiu Feng appeared with Liu Ming on his back, several people came out of the post station together. As soon as Xuan Ming, the leader, walked out of the gate of the post station, he had already stopped with everyone. The Blood Refining Sect's large army was close at hand.
Huamian Station is actually not far from Huamian River, but it is enough for Xuan Ming and others to get a part of the buffer distance.
The post station was only two stories high, and when a four-story giant building ship appeared in front of Xuan Ming and the others, the feeling was undoubtedly shocking. Even if the two-story tall poisonous corpse is brought out alone, it is only a small man compared to the building boat, not to mention the ordinary corpses who are also doing the work of the riverbank slender man behind the big poisonous corpse, they are like ants.
There were no flags on the ship, and there was no sign of anyone in sight. There was only a strange sound of copper bells, accompanied by the footsteps of the poisonous corpses, accompanied by the shattering of the ice. This bronze bell is completely different from what Xuan Ming had heard in Shaozhou City, but it seems to be of the same origin.
I could feel that there was a kind of ill-intentioned gaze, peeking in the direction of Xuan Ming and the others, and even though Xuan Ming looked at it, he really didn't find anyone on the boat.
Until all the Blood Refining Sect corpses went away under the order of Lou Chuan's copper bell, none of the corpses glanced at this side, and Xuan Ming and them were ignored.
"The world is crazy. Qiu Feng pouted.
"It's a good thing to be able to run away without being chased by a bunch of monsters. Carry Liu Ming back and rest, Qiu Feng. Xuan Ming patted his forehead and said. He really felt a little lucky, remembering that the sword that had only left a small hole on the door of the Great Poisonous Corpse in Xuanyuan City before, but even the opponent's defense had not been broken.
After cultivating the Taixu Sword Intent, Xuan Ming was already at the realm of the martial spirit level unconsciously, although it was just a sword that he stabbed out casually, and there was not much seriousness, it still left a deep impression on him.
Even if these big poisonous corpses have not reached the martial arts level, they are also characters who can fight with martial arts with their defensive characteristics, of course, when it comes to this, you can take the Longquan Sword Zhuang Yunliu as an example.
"Dao Chief, Xuan Ming Dao Chief?"
Xuan Ming's reverie was interrupted by Su Qi, he came back to his senses, only to hear Su Yan ask again: "Dao Chief, don't you enter the post station?"
"No," Xuan Ming shook his head and refused, "Poor Dao has something important, so let's leave." With a whistle, he summoned the snow that had fallen not far away.
Seeing that he was stroking the temples of the horse stepping on the snow and had not yet set off, Su Yan was silent for a while, took out a pocket jade box from the embroidered bag on his waist, handed it to Xuan Ming, and said: "This is my newly prepared Baicao ointment, although it is not a panacea, it has the ability to dissolve a variety of toxins, so the Dao Leader will bring it with him in case of emergency." ”
Xuan Ming's face was slightly stunned, but he quickly adjusted, smiled and accepted Su Qi's gift and thanked: "You're welcome, this thing is just for self-defense, I am grateful." ”
Waiting for Xuan Ming to put the jade box close to his body, Su Yan pursed his lips and smiled, turned around and went back to the post station.
Xuan Ming watched her figure disappear behind the closed wooden door of the post station, shrugged his shoulders, patted the neck of the snow, and led it to begin to move upstream along the Huamian River.
In the distance, the back of the Blood Refining Sect Building ship was still faintly visible in the flying snow. There was no one left and right, Xuan Ming soon stopped, took out a porcelain box from his arms and opened it, and a burst of nasal fragrance flew out like a wild horse. Walking on the snow is no longer calm, and when he looks up, he pokes his nose into Xuan Ming's hand.
In the box is a thumb-sized elixir, the whole body is red, simple and dull, named Qin Fangdan. It was obtained from Chi Qi by Xuan Ming before he went north, and his master specially instructed Xuan Ming to take it for Treading Snow to increase his spirituality.
"Don't sniff, this is specially prepared for you by Master. Xuan Ming carefully took out the Qin Fang Dan and watched as Taxue swallowed the spirit pill.
The medicinal power appeared at the entrance, and black sweat began to ooze from the snow-white body, which looked a little sloppy. Xuan Ming walked away a few steps and watched quietly.
In a short time, Treading Snow had turned into a dirty black zebra, no longer white. Xuan Ming laughed at it and said, "Okay, let's go to the river and wash it up." ”
Seeing that Taxue was unmoved, Xuan Ming naturally knew that it would not understand, and it seemed that he was expressing his dissatisfaction, so he said again: "You don't know how to use this skill, go quickly." ”
Waiting for Taxue to reluctantly walk slowly towards the Huamian River alone, Xuan Ming said again at its back: "I'll go upstream, you can follow up by yourself in a while, don't make too much noise." ”
Unfolded and sat and forgot the true qi, the fine snow flying in the sky had been cut off, and Xuan Ming was cleansed and cleaned, hanging far behind the Blood Refining Sect army. Chu Yudi's state had already been entrusted to the Feihan Sect waiting to fight Xuanyuan Hill to pay attention to, while he himself was staring at the Blood Refining Sect to see what they wanted and what they wanted.
The Huamian River originates from Wuding Lake on Yunyan Mountain in the southwest of Yuzhou County, meets Qinwei Ershui from west to east, then crosses the south of Xuanyuan Hill, and then joins the Xuanyuan River from north to south, and finally goes all the way to the southeast and goes straight into Huaihai.
The building boat of the Blood Refining Sect stopped when it reached the waters of the confluence of the three rivers, and Xuan Ming stood in the distance and observed carefully. The corpse slender men did not untie the hemp rope on their bodies, but only accompanied the boat motionless on the shore, and the strange copper bell also stopped.
Treading snow appeared silently beside Xuan Ming, at this time it was more handsome than before, the horse's sideburns were blowing lightly with the breeze, and the four hooves were foggy, as if riding the wind.
"Compared to you now, I'm more like a mortal. Xuan Ming looked at the snow, looked at himself again, and joked.
"Little Taoist, you are the only one, do you dare to follow my Immortal Sect?"
"Immortal Sect?" In Xuan Ming's questioning, three skeleton-like corpses slowly crawled out of the snow two feet away from him and stood up.
"I didn't expect to do it so soon, blood refining demons, show up!" Xuan Ming drew his sword in his hand without thinking, and shouted loudly.
