Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Lingzhou Chapter 107 The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
used her last bit of strength to knock Xu Yan and Cai Zhenjing off the cliff together, Bai Bing's already trembling body fell to the ground again, and then, her whole person began to convulse continuously, as if she had epilepsy.
Compared to before, when her eyes were bleeding, after she used this sword, her injuries were undoubtedly aggravated, because her seven orifices began to overflow with scarlet blood, and her appearance looked miserable and terrifying.
It wasn't until half a quarter of an hour later, when her body was almost twisted together in pain, that it gradually subsided, and then she fell into a coma and fainted.
It wasn't until two hours later that she slowly woke up again.
Pain......
Pain everywhere......
This is Bai Bing's first feeling after waking up, or is it that in fact, in the fainting, she was already awakened by these physical pains? She didn't know, she only knew that not only did she have unbearable pain in her body, but also suffered from bursts of pinprick-like pain along with her consciousness.
She lay flat in this natural but silent stone room, from every beating of the blood in her body, she could clearly hear it, this sound, like countless soldiers beating drums in her body, every time it sounded, she couldn't help but want to scream in pain, but she couldn't scream at all.
I don't know how long it will take for her fingers to finally move slightly, and she can control her mind to start investigating her body, but when she checks her condition, she doesn't know whether she should rejoice or cry.
First of all, almost all the meridians in her body are damaged, which is one of the reasons why she feels pain all over her body, and secondly, in her two qi mansions, there is not even a trace of qi left, just like being exposed to a dry well that does not have a trace of water vapor in the hot summer, and finally, her body is also filled with a very disordered breath, which is constantly damaging her internal organs.
There is no doubt that all of the above situations were the backlash she suffered when she forcibly used the Ruthless Sword Duel, just like Xu Yan had been in the same situation after using the Thunder Sword before.
With her five-story realm and cultivation, she shouldn't have been so broken, and she didn't want to rush the last sword.
When Bai Haijing taught her this set of sword techniques when she was very young, she didn't fail to tell her that she should not use this last move easily until the upper three realms and when she was at the moment of life and death, however, when she recalled the battle between herself and Xu Yan, she could only feel full of helplessness and sadness for this, because she unexpectedly discovered a problem that she did not expect, that is, when she urged her real name flying sword to use the ruthless sword duel, her whole consciousness was completely out of control.
This means that in fact, after she made a move at Xu Yan, she gradually lost the sobriety she originally had, so that even if she wanted to stop halfway, she couldn't do it at all.
Bai Bing suddenly shed a crystal clear teardrop in the corner of his eye, I don't know if it was due to the pain in his body or something else. She lay flat on the ground, and when she could twist her head, she glanced sideways at the real name Flying Sword who was lying on the ground like her, and then at the edge of the cliff that she couldn't see at all, and for the first time felt a deep exhaustion in her heart, and then she silently closed her eyes, and wanted to just be silent, long, and sleep all the time.
But this kind of extravagant hope is unrealistic, at least not yet. So it didn't take long for the qi in her body to function normally, and she involuntarily began to recover her qi again, and stabilized the injuries on her meridians, as well as those tyrannical disordered aura.
So, the river of time is also flowing slowly in this rare quiet, and before you know it, it is close to the fourth quarter of the unitary hour.
A golden light slanted from outside the stone to the white ice enjoying the tranquility, even though her eyes were closed, but it brought her a burst of light and warmth like a flame, and pulled her back from her meditative state to reality.
She slowly opened her eyes, stretching a little lazily, and there was still a slight pain in her body, but it didn't affect her freedom of movement at all.
So, she sat up cross-legged from the ground, then pinched the seal with her hand, took control of the flying sword, and flew back into her hand. Looking at this flying sword, which had been the master of her own choice since she was born, Bai Bing finally only sighed softly, and then withdrew it into his own Qi Mansion that had improved by an entire realm because he had to forcibly use the ruthless sword to fight the last form.
She got up and came to the stream that flowed next to the stone chamber, squatted down and measured the temperature with her green hand, and I have to say that the clear spring from the belly of the mountain was indeed clearer and colder than the water of the Yellow River that crossed in the county.
Bai Bing used her hand as a spoon, picked up a scoop of cool water in the stream, and gently patted it on her beautiful face, quickly washing away the blood that overflowed from her seven orifices but had long since dried up, but this scene, she was more like indirectly washing away her terrifying and hideous face that was revealed because of her uncontrollability.
About a quarter of an hour later.
After Bai Bing had washed her whole body, she took out the last set of clean clothes that had been placed in the storage bag for many years and changed it for herself.
This outfit is no longer from the linen-colored robe worn by the disciples of the Lotus Sect, but a lilac Luo skirt.
After eight full years of practicing as a male in the Lotus Sect, she finally waited for the moment when she could recover her daughter's body.
She walked lightly to the edge of the cliff on the edge of the stone room, looked down at this Qianzhang Waterfall, which is known as the origin of the evil stream, and couldn't help but think to herself, "If you can change the place and perspective for a better time, it should look very spectacular and beautiful, right?"
However, how could she know that when she recovered her daughter's body and stood on top of the head of the Thousand Feet Waterfall, even the waterfall that had flowed for an unknown number of years would be eclipsed by her presence.
Bai Bing took his eyes off the Qianzhang Waterfall and looked at the bottomless cliff outside.
On the cliff, at her feet, there was still a faint layer of mountain fog like a light veil, blocking her view to continue looking, but in fact, even without these mountain fogs, she could not see the scenery at the bottom of the cliff.
After a long time, when the golden sunset completely fell from the mountains and rivers, and when the vast deep blue sky gradually turned to inky black, Bai Bing came back to his senses from his trance that seemed to be frozen in the cliff scenery.
She whispered to the cliff, which had been completely sunk into darkness, "I'm sorry. ”
Then she didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately controlled her real name flying sword to fly to her feet, and with the blessing of her newly learned secret, it instantly skyrocketed dozens of times.
Bai Bing cautiously walked over to the flying sword.
Immediately after, she was like a dazzling rainbow, flying from the Dushan Mountain to the outer peaks.
......
After passively falling down from the cliff, Xu Yan's whole person completely lost his center of gravity, and the feeling of free fall made him feel a little helpless.
There was a whistling sound of breaking wind, as if it was about to puncture his eardrums.
However, at this moment, compared to the helplessness that occupied most of his heart, Cai Zhenjing, who kept falling with him, looked pale and very frightened, but soon, when she fully realized her situation, the fear in her heart slowly dissipated.
She looked at Xu Yan, who pulled her body back from her back to the bottom of the cliff and forcibly pulled it back in mid-air, for some reason, she suddenly felt an extremely grotesque sense of satisfaction, as if in her subconscious, a voice was saying to her, "It is the best ending for you to die with him like this." ”
Of course, Xu Yan didn't know what Cai Zhenjing was thinking in his heart, his only thought was that he had to live, so the expression on his face was a little solemn. However, when he was still about 300 feet away from the bottom of the cliff and clearly saw a huge waterhole at the bottom of the cliff, the expression on his face softened a little.
He suddenly said to Cai Zhenjing beside him: "Miss Cai, before falling into the waterhole later, I have to hold you to relieve the strength in your body, I hope you don't mind." ”
Hearing Xu Yan suddenly transmit a voice to herself, Cai Zhenjing, who was thinking wildly, was slightly stunned, she didn't know what Xu Yan meant by what she said to her, but she couldn't help but secretly think, "Is there any way for him to let himself live?"
Cai Zhenjing was not sure about this, but for some reason, when she heard Xu Yan say this, she naturally sprouted a trace of luck and hope in her heart.
She replied to Xu Yan: "And it's up to Xu Gongzi to decide." ”
After Xu Yan got her reply, he no longer hesitated, and when he pulled her by his side into his arms, and then his strong and powerful hands were directly wrapped around the other party's thin waist, like a lock, locking each other firmly.
Feeling that Xu Yan's body was tightly attached to him, even Cai Zhenjing, who had already experienced this scene before, couldn't help but feel a trace of shame for this, and at the same time, there was a trace of joy?
But why do you have such joy?
From birth to the present, it can be said that Cai Zhenjing has never been in such close contact with a man, and even after she was selected by her master as a personal disciple and taught ruthless sword dueling, she made up her mind early in her heart that she would only pursue supreme swordsmanship in this life, and would never come into contact with any male and female love. Although she couldn't have predicted that in this spring hunt, she would have such a friendship with this Lotus Sect disciple named Xu Yan, but even so, she should never have moved her Dao heart.
"Hey!"
Cai Zhenjing sighed softly in her heart, but she couldn't help but recall the fact that the latter pulled her back from the ghost gate in the misty forest, as well as the countless days with him afterward, and the scene when he let her leave at the last moment.
"It turned out that at that time, I had carved a shadow of him in my heart, but I didn't want to admit it at first, and I didn't dare to admit it. ”
However, now, after she once again 'fell into the hands of Xu Yan', Cai Zhenjing finally understood, it turned out that she followed them all the way into the Dushan Mountain, although she kept telling herself in the original intention that this was to fulfill the duty assigned to her by the master (to protect the Holy Maiden of Jianzhuang), but in the end, a bigger part of the reason was that she was still worried about the person who was hugging her right now.
But then, she suddenly thought that even if she could survive this time, it would be impossible for her to continue to stay in the White Crane Sword Village to practice, right? After all, after moving the root of love, no matter how hard she tried to cultivate the Ruthless Sword, she could no longer be truly ruthless. And her master, if she learned that she gave up her cultivation because she fell in love with a male disciple from a sworn enemy sect, she must be in a rage, and the latter would be tempted to take her life with one palm, right?
Cai Zhenjing suddenly felt a little sad, because of this feeling of love, for her, it really made her feel a little heartache.
"Bang" with a loud bang!
Before she could think about it any more, there was a loud sound of falling water, which suddenly exploded in her ears.
After Cai Zhenjing heard this voice, she undoubtedly fell into a huge shock, because at this moment, she and Xu Yan, who was holding her behind her, had not yet fallen into the pool.
So what was it that first stirred up the sound of falling water?
She looked down to see what it was, but when she saw the details, her whole body became even more shocked.
Cai Zhenjing saw that there was a huge python under her, and after it fell into the water, the huge head of the python quickly came up towards the body of the two of them.
"Bang"!
Xu Yan and Cai Zhenjing fell together on Xiaocai's head that woke up at the critical moment, and then they smashed its head into the waterhole.
A cold feeling instantly filled the consciousness of Xu Yan and Cai Zhenjing, this is undoubtedly a feeling that only comes after falling into the water, it is obviously very uncomfortable, but for them, it is good news that is worth gratifying, because at this moment, they finally managed to survive with Xiaocai's help to unload most of their strength.
Quickly swimming out of the water from three feet below the waterhole, Xu Yan let go of Cai Zhenjing in his arms, and then said to her: "Miss Cai, you are lucky not to die, you can swim out of the waterhole and go to the shore to rest." ”
When Cai Zhenjing heard this, she couldn't help but ask, "What about you, won't you swim out with me?"
Xu Yan shook his head and replied, "I'll go out later, you go first." Without waiting for Cai Zhenjing to say anything more, Xu Yan plunged into the water again and kept diving into the depths of the pool.
For Xu Yan, there is no doubt that he is worried about Xiaocai's safety, because since they smashed the latter's snake head into the waterhole, he just sensed its existence in the sea, and then lost contact in an instant, but fortunately, when he dived into the depths of the waterhole, he saw Xiaocai's huge python body.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Yan directly hugged Xiaocai's body with both hands, and then swam quickly upwards with it, but before he completely surfaced, in the sea of his knowledge, a familiar and somewhat playful voice suddenly sounded, only to hear her say: "Even if you still have a little conscience, there is no heavy color and light friends, I thought you wouldn't come to save me." ”
Hearing that it was Xiaocai's voice, Xu Yan immediately let go of its body, and said a little weakly: "Feelings, you are testing me, do you know how much I am injured now......
Xiaocai smiled and said: "I know, of course I know, but my injury is not light, you fell from such a high mountain, and almost smashed my head directly, hey, you said that you are really, even if it is martyrdom, you will not choose this extreme way, if I don't wake up in time, even if you two fall into the pool in the end, you will be finished." ”
Xu Yan heard her talk so outrageously, and his face instantly turned black, but he couldn't help but feel happy for Xiaocai in his heart, because at this moment, he already felt that the other party had officially entered the sixth-level spirit beast. It wasn't until he surfaced that he replied to Xiaocai: "Don't talk nonsense, I was beaten down by someone, where is the martyrdom." ”
"What? Someone knocked it down...... Who is so powerful that you can be defeated?"
"Hey, it's a long story, I'll talk to you slowly when I have time, I have to get out of this waterhole first, and then recuperate, or I really won't be able to hold on." ”
Xiaocai's body did not appear in the end at Xu Yan's suggestion, so under the water, she shrunk her body and burrowed into his cuffs.
Although Xu Yan had roughly known Cai Zhenjing's attitude towards him before, and he would never harm him, he still didn't want her to know about his own Xiaocai, even if he was a bit suspicious of 'living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain', but Xiaocai's existence was too important to him, and he would need his help in the future, and he couldn't be sloppy at all.
Seeing Xu Yan walking out of the waterhole empty-handed, Cai Zhenjing, who had already found a stone to sit down in the pile of rocks on the shore, undoubtedly stopped talking.
Seeing her like this, Xu Yan squeezed out a smile on his pale face, and said: "Miss Cai wants to say anything, just say it, now the results of the spring hunt can almost be conclusive, unless you can snatch the storage bag from me." ”
Cai Zhenjing shook his head and replied: "No, I did it before just out of my own duty, but since the saint girl personally knocked me off the cliff, then this matter can be regarded as a write-off." ”
Xu Yan didn't doubt the truth of her words, just nodded, and then sat down on a stone, he let out a long sigh of relief towards the sky, and rarely felt that this time, he was really exhausted.
However, his scene fell in Cai Zhenjing's eyes, but the latter couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It turns out that people who can always create infinite miracles in their own eyes will also be tired!"
