Volume 2 The Return of the Barbarian God Chapter 79 The Compass of the Afterlife
A month has passed, although the elixir given by the patriarch of the Spirit Monkey Clan has suppressed the blood poison, but the blood poison is still tormenting Xiao Wensheng all the time, just a month, his body has lost weight in a whole circle, and dark red blood marks have appeared on the skin, looking terrifying and abnormal.
"Boy, are we going in the wrong direction, why haven't we gotten out of this damn fog area after so many days?"
After sneezing loudly and blowing out a big mist vortex, Long Xing said to Xiao Wensheng beside him.
At this moment, Xiao Wensheng's expression was exhausted to the extreme, and even his eyes faintly exuded a blood-red color.
"I don't know, there is no reference here, the visual range is low, and the direction cannot be determined at all. ”
"If you try to sense the Lingzun Mansion's Canglong and Phoenix Seal, you may be able to tell the direction. ”
Long Xing thought for a while and said.
"I've tried, but it's too far away to feel it. ”
"We've tried everything we can do, but we haven't been able to get out of this Misty Valley. ”
There was a hint of depression in Xiao Wensheng's eyes, is it going to be trapped and die in this misty valley like this?
If the turtle wants to return to the wilderness, it must pass through this misty valley, how did it pass through?
"Brother Xiao!"
Just when everyone was falling into thought, suddenly an abrupt voice sounded, it was a woman's voice, very good, with a hint of immaturity.
"Where's the voice?"
"Who?"
Long Ao and Sword Spirit Dragon Punishment looked around at the same time, their expressions full of vigilance.
Xiao Wensheng ignored the two of them, and carefully took out a colorful conch from his arms, which was flashing with a slight light at the moment.
"Li'er, how did you remember to talk to Brother Xiao. ”
Xiao Wensheng tried his best to relax his voice so that he was not so haggard.
"Brother Xiao is dead, he never talks to Li'er, Li'er was locked up in the palace by his father, and he was about to suffocate to death. ”
"This is, Sea Clan stuff?"
Long Ao looked at the sound transmission conch in Xiao Wensheng's hand curiously, and said in a low voice, Long Xing and Xiao Jin also looked curious, and even the dragon punishment fell into Xiao Wensheng's hand, and he went to observe this magical thing up close.
"Hey, where is Brother Xiao, why is it so thick in the fog? and a cute little dragon. ”
"Brother Xiao, you ...... What's wrong with your face?"
In the conch, Luo Li's voice came out one after another, and what Xiao Wensheng didn't expect was that Luo Li would be able to see the situation here through the conch.
"I'm fine, just a little bit injured, can Li'er see the situation here?"
"Brother Xiao, don't lie to me, do you look like you are slightly injured?"
Luo Li's voice was a little crying because of anxiety.
"Li'er is not in a hurry, I have been hit by a strange poison, and I need to pass through this fog and reach the Northern Wilderness to find a cure, but now I am trapped in this fog, unable to discern the direction, and can't get out. ”
"Can't discern the direction, Brother Xiao, wait, I can get you out of this fog. ”
After that, there was no movement.
A long time has passed, maybe an hour, maybe half a day, because of waiting, it always makes time extremely long, and the conch remembered the voice again, but this time the voice was no longer Luo Li's, but a man's majestic voice.
"Human man, I am the Lord of the Sea Clan, Luo Li's father, you can call me Yuan, you saved my daughter once, and in return, I helped you out of what you call the Misty Valley. ”
"But, I hope you won't pester my daughter in the future, you humans have long been occupied by greed, killing and other desires, so I don't want my daughter to have anything to do with you humans, you, understand?"
Silence, long silence.
"The junior understands that from today onwards, I will not contact Her Royal Highness the Princess again. ”
"I hope you can keep your promise, human, this is the compass of the afterlife, even in the Sea Clan, it is a great treasure, to give it to you, it is regarded as a reward for you saving my daughter, keep walking in the direction pointed by the pointer, you can go where you want to go. ”
At the same time as the man's voice sounded, an incomparably blazing colorful light suddenly emanated from the sound transmission conch, and even the thick fog nearby was dispelled a lot by this light, and in this light, a palm-sized dark gold compass floated quietly next to the sound transmission conch.
The entire compass is densely covered with countless dense patterns, and a pointer in the center is constantly rotating.
"Human, remember your promises. ”
After the man's voice was heard, only a soft click was heard, and a crack opened on the conch, and the light emitted from it suddenly closed and became dim.
Xiao Wensheng looked at the Transsonic Conch that had dimmed at the moment, and his heart felt like he had lost something extremely important, and his heart ached.
..................
In the South China Sea, at the bottom of the deep sea, there is a huge underwater city, which is as big as the territory of two mortal realms.
In the center of this undersea city is the Crystal Palace, the residence of the Lord of the Sea Clan, the King of the Abyss, and the ruler of the entire Sea Clan.
In a side hall, there are two figures, one is wearing a bright yellow shirt, dressed up pretty and cute, it is Luo Li, and a man wearing a purple and gold-rimmed dragon robe is Luo Li's father, Yuan.
"Li'er, I have already helped you pay off the love of the human man who saved you, and you can't have the slightest contact with him in the future, you know?"
There was unmistakable majesty in the man's voice.
"Daddy, I'm tired. ”
Luo Li stroked the conch that also had a crack in his hand, turned around and walked towards the palace, but the moment he turned around, tears couldn't stop flowing.
"Li'er, you are not too young, the Sea Demon Clan will come to propose marriage in a few days, that kid in his family is good, he can be my son-in-law. ”
"If you want to be you, even if you die, I won't marry him. ”
Luo Li left this sentence and went away angrily, she didn't know that with the passage of time, Brother Xiao would forget about himself?
What about yourself, will you forget Brother Xiao?
..............................
Xiao Wensheng held the compass in his hand, he should have been able to get out of this damn misty valley, and he should be happy, but at this moment, Xiao Wensheng couldn't lift any happy emotions at all, and there was only endless loss and fear in his heart.
He didn't know what he was afraid of, was he afraid that he would never see Luo Li again in his life?
"Brother Xiao, are you okay?"
Xiao Jin's words first broke each other's silence, everyone saw Xiao Wensheng's ugly face, and they didn't dare to speak at the moment, Xiao Jin had no choice but to break this silence.
"I'm fine, now that we have this compass, we should be able to get out of this Misty Valley. ”
Xiao Wensheng cherished the Transsonic Conch in his arms, and still put it close to his body, his face had returned to calm.
Luo Li's father didn't say how to use this compass of the afterlife, since he didn't say it, then he must have thought it was very simple and there was no need to say it.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Wensheng tentatively transported a trace of the true yuan into the compass, and with the influx of Xiao Wensheng's true yuan, the strange runes existing on the compass slowly lit up, and in a few breaths, the runes on the compass were completely lit up.
"A drop of blood in your heart, a different path to life. ”
An old voice, coming from within the compass, was like a demon tempting mortals to trade.
The blood in his heart is the blood that contains the power of powerful cultivation, and every drop is extremely precious, if in normal times, Xiao Wensheng will consider whether this transaction should be carried out.
But at this moment, Xiao Wensheng didn't have so much time, the burning of the blood poison in his body made his temper slowly become irritable, and he had reason to believe that Luo Li's father would not harm him.
The Purple Thunder Sword instantly appeared in his hand, and with a pop, it penetrated through his body, and when he pulled it out, there was a drop of bright red blood on the tip of the sword that did not fall.
As the tip of the sword moved over the compass, it dripped down on the compass with a "click".
After the blood dropped, there was a sound of lips clicking on the compass, as if tasting the delicious blood.
"It's delicious, there's a crazy smell in your blood. The sound of the pouting came again, as if in the aftertaste.
"Boy, if you encounter difficulties that can't be solved in the future, even if you look for me, the cost is not much, it's just a drop of blood in your heart. ”
"Please also point out a clear path out of this Misty Valley. Xiao Wensheng's face was cold, and he said coldly.
Anyone who makes such a noise after seeing something swallow their own blood will not be in a good mood.
"Don't worry, if you absorb your blood, it will definitely take you out, you just need to follow the direction of the pointer. ”
As the compass finished speaking, the pointer, which had been rotating irregularly, fixed in one direction and stopped moving.
This direction, referring to Xiao Wensheng's left side, indicates that they don't know when, they have deviated from the correct direction.
"Let's go. ”
Xiao Wensheng took care of it, and took the lead in the direction of the pointer.
This walk is the direction of several days, and during this time, the direction of the compass hands changes three times, so the direction in which they are going also changes three times.
Xiao Wensheng opened his mouth many times to ask why he changed direction, but the voice never sounded again, no matter how Xiao Wensheng called.
At this time, the pointer on the compass changed direction again, turning at a forty-five degree angle to the right.
Xiao Wensheng's face was cloudy, and he didn't know whether he should continue to follow the compass.
"Try again, and if you don't get out this time, don't follow the compass again. ”
Xiao Wensheng whispered, the atmosphere between everyone in the past few days has been extremely depressing, and he may not be able to say a word for a whole day, and the dragon punishment can no longer stand it and go back to sleep in the Haotian Sword like this, leaving one person and two beasts to hurry with their heads bored.
As everyone turned around and walked forward, it didn't take long for them to come to the foot of a mountain, and a huge cave entrance appeared in front of Xiao Wensheng's eyes, and the direction pointed by this compass was the direction of the cave entrance.
This was the first time that everyone had seen the figure of a mountain peak after walking in the Misty Valley for so long, the fog was too heavy for them to see how high the mountain was and how far it stretched, but Xiao Wensheng could feel that this should be a huge mountain range.
"Let's go, if as expected, after this cave, we will enter the Northern Wilderness. ”
Xiao Wensheng squeezed out a rare smile, but now the red veins on Xiao Wensheng's thin face bulged, and this smile was also a little terrifying.
Xiao Jin and Long Ao were also relieved when they heard Xiao Wensheng's words, it was difficult for anyone to bear this kind of torture.
The cave was wide and high, and it was also filled with a thick fog, but there was no fork in the road, so despite the fog, it could no longer block the direction of Xiao Wensheng and their progress.
As you move forward, the sound of tinkling water droplets began to be heard in the cave, and on the top of the cave, there were occasionally a few sounds of wings hitting the rocks on the top of the cave, and under the soles of the feet, there was also a sticky feeling, which should be animal feces.
"There must be a lot of bats living on the roof of the cave, and it seems that we are not far from the exit. ”
