"Are you going to just watch her die, it seems that in this respect, you humans are no different from us, and we will not heal our kind in this situation. When Cai Zhenjing was about to die, a crisp voice suddenly came from Xu Yan's consciousness.

When Xu Yan heard this, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what the other party said, but after a moment of silence, he slowly shook his head and replied: "Xiaocai, there is always a difference between people and spirit beasts, maybe you can't understand the difference now, but as long as you get through the transformation period and successfully pass the heavenly tribulation, you should be able to understand it, and I didn't watch her die, I'm just weighing the pros and cons of some things, and I'm also waiting, waiting for a suitable time to come, and then rescue her." “

Xiaocai said a little dazed: "Why do you want to save her, she just begged you to kill her." ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but show a deep smile on his face at this, and replied: "That's why I want to save her, if she begged me to save her from the beginning, I wouldn't have done it." ”

Xiaocai pretended to be old-fashioned and sighed, and replied: "Hey, you human thoughts are so complicated, I can't even imagine that one day in the future, I will also face this kind of problem." ”

Xu Yan heard her childlike tone, smiled dumbly, and stopped answering.

Cai Zhenjing's injury is very serious, or it is only one step away from the line of life and death, even when Xu Yan faced this kind of serious injury, he was busy for nearly an hour before he pulled her back from the ghost gate, and this was still at the cost of releasing a large bowl of essence blood, but Xu Yan had no other choice, the flower-core of the golden nodice orchid, he was absolutely impossible to take out.

And since Xu Yan heard that the other party was bent on death, he also understood that the other party should be a woman with an extremely strong personality, such a person is undoubtedly as sharp as a spear, making it impossible for him to provoke her seemingly cold, but in fact it is more of a last trace of dignity of self-abandonment when she is still conscious, but fortunately, Xu Yan also needs to let her realize what kind of cold and indescribable kind of death she is desperately looking for. Only then would she understand that this was more absolute than if she had lost her innocence, and at the same time, he would let her know that this was an end, not a second time for her to do so.

Xu Yan is convinced that when she thoroughly experiences this collision between life and death, she will have a sense of awe for death from now on, and more courage and cognition will sprout for living.

Xu Yan cleaned up the blood stains on her body, took care of the wound on her abdomen, and after feeding her the 'Recovery Pill' and many other pills that were helpful to the injury, he let her start to recover from her injuries on her own according to her physical state and frequency, and at the same time, he also changed his spare robe to her, which looked somewhat ill-fitting, but this kind of thing was harmless at this moment.

Xu Yan walked out of this cave with the help of Xiaocai, and found a cave that could be used by Cai Zhenjing for a temporary night, and found that in the dense forest at this moment, there was only endless darkness, and the only light source was the small fire he lit in the cave for lighting.

He felt the poisonous mist in the air, and felt that the poison contained in it was really getting stronger, and if it was correct, this dark brown mist should last for more than a day, and then it would gradually turn blue, as Xiaocai said.

Xu Yan came to the outside of the cave entrance and suddenly sighed helplessly.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Cai said, "Are you already regretting it now, if you don't save this woman, you can continue your journey to the north without wasting this whole night here? Oh, maybe it's more than that, she's like this, if you don't feed her the flower-core, she won't be able to return to her freedom of movement in a short time, and if you don't want her to fall into the hands of those villains again, you can only take her with you first, right?"

Without waiting for Xu Yan to answer, Xiaocai continued: "So, before deciding to save her, the way you hesitated, and the things you weighed in your heart, are what I said, the situation that will become a reality in the future, right?"

Xu Yan listened to its random suspicions, and suddenly said angrily: "You are just a snake now, or a snake whose wisdom has not yet matured, where do you have so many black thoughts?"

Xiaocai said with disdain: "You better admit it, although I don't know what purpose you intended to save her life, but I don't think you are such a kind-hearted person." ”

Xu Yan pondered for a moment, and said something that Xiaocai didn't understand at all, "Don't define me with your eyes, maybe what you said is right, but this is only one of me, and why can't I exist another me at the same time, and this me is just purely out of kindness and respect for life to save her life?" Xu Yan suddenly changed his words and said in an extremely contemptuous tone: " Oh, I forgot that you're just a young python, but I can't wait to see what kind of little bad you'll become when you survive the apocalypse. ”

Xiaocai then 'cut' very disdainfully, knowing that she couldn't argue with the other party, so she no longer dwelled on this topic, but suddenly asked: "By the way, why does your blood always make me feel a tremble? You are obviously just a human being, this is not reasonable at all, and you can save her, not relying on those pills, what you really rely on is actually your own blood, right?"

Regarding this question, Xu Yan's face immediately sank, and he replied coldly: "If you don't know something, it's best not to ask!"

Seeing that he was suddenly furious, Xiaocai snorted like a real girl, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't say it, don't say it, it's too much!"

......

The night was silent.

Under this sea of dark brown fog, even Xu Yan couldn't tell what time it was at the moment. It wasn't until there was a faint light in the forest that he returned to the cave where Cai Zhenjing was lying.

About a quarter of an hour later, Cai Zhenjing finally woke up.

She glanced at her surroundings when she woke up, and saw that all around her were cold cliffs.

"Is this the world after death?" Cai Zhenjing thought so, and realized that it was not said that people die like lights going out, and nothing will be left?

"Hey, in fact, if I could do it all over again, I really don't want to die. "Cai Zhenjing continued to think, and wanted to get up and walk out of this cave to see this 'new world'?

However, before she could bend down and get up, there was a sharp pain in her abdomen, as if some wound had been torn, which made her gasp, and at the same time, this pain also made her instantly recall her position, wasn't it the position where Yan Ziyi was pierced with a long sword before?

Without waiting for Cai Zhenjing to pass more absurd thoughts in his mind, Xu Yan, who was watching all this coldly, said in a cold voice: "If you don't want the wounds on your body to reopen, stop it, and if you want to get up early, hurry up and refine the medicinal power in your body!"

The sudden indifferent voice made Cai Zhenjing's heart startled, and she turned her head to look at the man who made the voice with difficulty, only to see a back figure slowly walking out of the cave.

So, Cai Zhenjing's mind was blank at first, and then he suddenly realized, "It turns out that I didn't die, he saved me!"

Knowing her current situation, Cai Zhenjing immediately investigated her own situation, and immediately found that she had put on a brand-new robe, but looking at its style and fabric, it was not from the clothing of their White Crane Sword Village, but the clothing of the disciples of the Lotus Sect.

After a while, she breathed a long sigh of relief with a slightly red face, because she found that her innocence was still there, but then she secretly wondered how she had come to this time, and what she cared about most was her body? Or rather, she actually subconsciously regarded her 'life-saving benefactor' as a thief like Yan Ziyi.

Life-saving benefactor, these four words can be said to be extremely rare and incredible words in the case of opposition between each other's sects, which is also where Cai Zhenjing is still puzzled after being silent for a long time.

"This Xu Yan, why did he save me?" Cai Zhenjing thought secretly in his heart, but he couldn't find a reasonable answer for himself, and then he thought that if the roles of each other were reversed at that time, he would definitely kill him mercilessly, and he wouldn't even think about it.

About an hour later.

After refining one-third of the medicinal power in her body, Cai Zhenjing felt that the injury on her abdomen had finally been relieved, at least she would not easily move and spill blood, and at the same time, the internal injury on her chest that was hit by Yan Ziyi's palm was also greatly alleviated.

She slowly got up and walked out of the dark space where she temporarily lived, only to realize that she was in a natural cave.

Xu Yan saw that it only took her an hour to walk out, and immediately frowned, according to his original expectation, it would take at least three hours or so for the other party to be able to refine the medicinal power of all the pills he had forcibly fed into her body.

Seeing Xu Yan open his mouth to say something, Cai Zhenjing directly preemptively said: "I don't know why you want to save me, but I can already move freely, and I know that you must be in a hurry to the north, so let's leave early." ”

Xu Yan looked at her pale and bloodless appearance, and stopped talking a little, and finally said: "Your body is still too weak now, anyway, the time has been delayed for a long time, and it is not bad for these two hours, you still refine the medicinal power in your body first, and then make plans." ”

Cai Zhenjing shook his head very stubbornly about this, and said undoubtedly: "If you can be a little earlier, don't worry, I will be able to hold on, if I really can't bear it, I will tell you, then we will stop on the road and rest for a while." ”

When Xu Yan saw her like this, he no longer dissuaded her, but just threw her a storage bag and said, "That's the case, then let's go, you can keep this storage bag, there are some pills in it, and food, but you'd better wait for your body to recover before eating." ”

Cai Zhenjing reached out and took the storage bag and said a very stiff thanks, but did not shirk the hypocrisy.

Because she knew that compared to saving her own life, she couldn't receive this favor at all, but after Xu Yan turned to leave, when she looked at his back, there was a little more complicated color in her eyes.

......

Along the way, Xu Yan, who was walking in front, didn't say a word, and Cai Zhenjing, who had always followed behind unhurriedly, did not take the initiative to speak, the main reason was that her body was still too weak, almost to the point where she had no strength to speak, and it was not easy for her to follow Xu Yan all the way.

However, Cai Zhenjing has also faintly felt Xu Yan's careful thinking since she was on the road for an hour, that is, his speed when walking, deliberately controlled very skillfully, and has always been maintained to the extent that she can keep up, but she absolutely can't pretend to procrastinate, in addition, she also found that the latter will quietly slow down whenever she is about to bear it, leaving her a buffer time.

It was as if he could sense her physical condition.

It wasn't until the two of them walked for a full hour and a half in the dark brown sea of fog that Xu Yan looked at the narrow valley in the distance and suddenly stopped. Cai Zhenjing saw him suddenly stop, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why don't you leave?"

Xu Yan's face was a little solemn about this, but he didn't explain, he turned his head to her and said, "Your body has reached its limit, rest here for a quarter of an hour first, and then pass through this valley." Without waiting for the latter to veto, Xu Yan continued: "I'm going to check the situation at the entrance of the valley first, you can rest here, remember, you don't go anywhere until I come back." ”

Cai Zhenjing frowned immediately when she saw him leave, but she finally sat down on a stone on the side of the road as he instructed. Then, she looked at Xu Yan, who still had a little youthful appearance on his face, but suddenly thought with some surprise in her heart, "Why would you be so obedient to his words?"

......

"Senior Brother Yan, are you sure that Xu Yan will pass through this valley alone? We have been ambushed here for a full six hours, if he doesn't come again, won't we have to wait here all the time?"

Yan Ziyi, who was hiding behind the four of them, heard a fellow disciple ask, his cold eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly, and he said: "Fellow disciples, don't worry, he will definitely come, as long as he wants to go to the northernmost part of Dengbei Mountain, he must pass through this valley, because this is the only passage." ”

After hearing this, another disciple of the Chenyang Sect couldn't help but frown and said, "Actually, there is no need for us to waste our time on this disciple named Xu Yan all the time, Senior Brother entered the hinterland so many days ahead of us, if we don't catch up and join him......"

"What is this talking about, this Xu Yan killed Cai Zhenjing with his own hands yesterday, how can we let him go so easily, besides, if Senior Brother learns about this......" Yan Ziyi suddenly paused in his tone, and then said in a heavy tone: "I can say ugly things in front, I don't dare to take this responsibility privately." ”

"Senior Brother Yan's words seem a little unreasonable, even if Xu Yan didn't appear, didn't you pull Cai ...... yesterday?"

"Senior Brother Han!"

Before the disciple surnamed Han finished speaking, another disciple interrupted him, and then explained to Yan Ziyi, who had a gloomy face, with a smile: "Senior Brother Yan, what we listen to you is, Senior Brother Han has a stubborn personality, you must not be like him. ”

Yan Ziyi saw that someone stood up to play a round at this time, and he was already angry, so he could only forcibly show a smile on his face and said: "Where and where, I know Senior Brother Han's temperament, and I won't care about him generally." ”

And in the midst of their conversations.

There was a slight sound of footsteps coming in from the entrance of the valley, which couldn't help but make the disciples of the Chenyang Sect, who had originally planned to continue to say a few words, suddenly held their breath, but when they stopped talking, the footsteps at the entrance suddenly stopped, this is undoubtedly someone after entering this valley, just a few steps, and then no longer advancing.

"Are you really sure that there will be people lurking in this valley?" Xu Yan stood at the entrance of the valley, and asked Xiao Cai in his consciousness with a somewhat ugly face.

After hearing this, Xiao Cai immediately replied in a disdainful tone: "Naturally, we can be sure, don't you think that our Colorful Sky Swallowing Python can only sense the breath of medicinal herbs that grow between heaven and earth, and we also have a very sensitive perception ability for enemies hidden in the shadows, otherwise we, who are not good at fighting and fighting, would not have been extinct in this world long ago?"

Xu Yan didn't feel any surprise when he got this reply, since the thousands of spirit beasts in the world can survive in the world for a long time, and continue to reproduce and pass them on, they naturally have their own unique skills.

He was silent for a moment before he asked in a heavy tone, "Can you sense how many people are lurking here, and how far away they are from here?"

Xiao Cai replied truthfully: "I can only be sure now that the person who escaped in your hands last night was mixed in, but how many people there are, I can't be sure before I have evolved to the seventh level, and even if I reach the seventh level, if I want to use this ability, I will have to pay a lot of money for it." ”

While Xiao Cai was transmitting the sound, its body stretched out a head from Xu Yan's cuffs, and then spit out its snake letter at this deep valley, and then continued after a while: "The place where they are hiding is about thirty zhang away from the entrance, and the depth of this valley is fifty zhang, oh, by the way, I just seemed to notice that the person's breath last night seemed to be retreating rapidly, and he was about to leave this valley." ”

When Xu Yan heard that Yan Ziyi was about to flee again, his face suddenly turned cold, and then he no longer had any scruples, and ran directly in this valley.

A galloping footsteps suddenly came from the entrance, and the three Chenyang Sect disciples lurking here, including Xu Niu, were all nervous, they glanced at each other, and then found that Yan Ziyi, who was planning this operation, had disappeared.

When the disciple surnamed Han saw this, he couldn't help but scold angrily and said, "This damn Yan Ziyi, he must have been a cowardly vole in his last life!"
