Chapter 34: The Birth of Divine Art(1/3)
The black wood in Nanke's hand suddenly lit up.
She looked down at the black wood that seemed to be turning into jade. After looking at it for a long time, her expression was extremely focused, her usual indifferent and even a little dull look gradually became vivid and bright.
Through this black wood, she clearly felt that she had established a certain connection between herself and the tall tomb in the distance.
Something was constantly summoning Soul Wood in the tomb, and also offering invitations to her.
Before entering this grassland where the sun never set, she didn't know what the black wood the teacher gave her had a specific effect, but now everything is clear.
This is the core of Zhou Ling, or the core part, and the other part is in Zhou Ling at this time.
She could not control Zhou Ling through this black wood, but she could control the monsters that were flooded with tides in the grassland behind her.
The contact from the tomb in the distance made her confirm that it was Zhou Ling, the place she was looking for. At the same time, if what she expected was not bad, Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng were in that tomb.
At this moment, she even felt a little grateful to Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong.
If it weren't for Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong leading the way, she would have no way to find Zhou Ling and get close to it, so that the Black Wood and Soul Pu can be connected.
You know, even her teacher could not travel through this vast grassland and find Zhou Ling's location.
Nanke's eyes became brighter and brighter, and no longer as dull as usual, as if flames were burning in it.
The tomb contains the inheritance of Zhou Dufu.
Only she herself knows how important Zhou Dufu's inheritance is to her sect.
From her position, the inheritance of the tomb, and even the tomb itself, the grassland that does not set in the sun, and the entire Zhouyuan, should be from her own sect.
This is the world left behind by the master. Today, she will finally be taken back by her.
Unlike Nanke, the demon generals and couple Teng Xiaoming and Liu Wan'er have more feelings about how Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong were able to find this mausoleum.
You should know that it has been hundreds of years since Zhou Yuan appeared. Countless genius and strong willed humans and demon practitioners have come here to try to find Zhou Ling, but none of them succeeded.
The military advisor's understanding of Zhou Yuan is obviously far better than that of the saints in the human world, but they cannot do it.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong did it.
It is indeed the future of the human world.
The military advisor is far-sighted and spends so much resources and energy to kill these young humans in Zhouyuan. It makes perfect sense.
Somewhere on the grassland where the sun never sets, reeds and weeds were cut off by some sharp thing, and they were thickly laid into a huge floating island, and it should be very comfortable to lie on it.
Qi Jian leaned against the haystack and looked at a certain direction in the sky. His pale little face was filled with fear. His eyes, which were dim and dim because of his serious injuries, became even darker.
It was almost dusk at this time. Logically, the sky should have turned into a warm red color, but now it is dark.
The reason for the darkness is not because there is cloud that is about to rain, but because there is a huge shadow covering the entire sky.
The huge shadow slowly swept up and down with the strong wind in the sky, like a pair of wings.
But... how could there be such a big bird in the world that spreads its wings to cover the sky thousands of miles? How can the heaven and earth accommodate such creatures?
Is this the legend... no, is the big roc in the myth?
According to legend, there is a strange beast named Dapeng living in the extreme west, outside the Great Western Continent, on the endless sea. It is called Dapeng. Its wings spread out and it is thousands of miles away.
It is said that this great repent has extremely powerful strength and has already stepped into the sacred realm half a step, and even the powerful people in the human world from the holy realm are difficult to defeat it.
How did such a terrifying Dapeng live in this grassland? Where does it hide in normal times? Why didn’t it break through the Zhou Garden? If it couldn’t, then what force in this grassland is restricting it?
The more Qi Jian thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his little face became paler.
After escaping for dozens of days, the surface of the sword wound between her lower abdomen has been healed, but the injuries in her body have not improved, but have gradually worsened. At this time, her mind was stimulated and she coughed in discomfort.
Cheshui brought a bowl of medicinal soup from somewhere, handed it to her, and said, "Drink."
It is still so concise and clear, and very neat.
It can be seen that after traveling with him for dozens of days, Qi Jian was already very familiar with him. In addition, he was seriously injured and weak, so he naturally showed the expression of his little daughter's family, and said angrily, "It's useless to be so bitter."
Zhexiu said that Chen Changsheng's words would definitely cure their poison and injuries, but in fact, he has been fighting alone in the snow field since he was a child. He must find medicine for treatment whether he is injured or sick. He has rich experience in this area. If he is in the world outside the Zhouyuan, no matter how severe the sword wounds Qijian suffered, he will be able to cure her. The problem is that this is the grassland that does not set in the sun, and there are very few types of plants growing between the water and the ground, most of which are reeds and weeds, so it is difficult to find suitable herbs. The medicinal soup he made for her these days is the rhizome of kudzu leaves that are difficult to find. The taste is indeed very bad and the effect is average, but... it is better to drink than not to drink it.
So listening to Qijian’s complaints and acting cute, his answer was still so simple and straightforward: “If you don’t drink, just spank.”
Qijian's pale little face turned slightly red, and his left hand subconsciously reached behind him to cover him.
It is obvious that such conversations, such spoiledness and resentment, and such concise answers have happened many times these days.
It's even possible that he actually hit her on the butt, just like hitting a child.
The method of folding sleeves is very useful, and Qijian doesn't seem to be disgusted by him, so he likes to be taught coldly.
She came to his hand like a little beast and slowly started drinking the medicine soup in small mouthfuls. For some reason, she felt that the medicine soup was still a little sweet.
After drinking the medicine soup, her injuries were stimulated by the medicinal force. She coughed again, and her pale face produced two ominous blushing, which made her look extremely uncomfortable.
He folded his sleeves and moved behind her, stretched out his right palm and grabbed her side neck, and slowly input his true energy into her body according to the method Chen Changsheng said in the Tianshu Tomb.
He has done this kind of thing many times and is very skilled.
The floating island consisting of reeds and weeds is quiet.
Qijian closed his eyes, his body trembled slightly, and his little face was pale.
Folding your sleeves occasionally open your eyes and look into the distance.
He could not see anything, but he was used to being alert.
And he can only open his eyes when Qijian closed his eyes.
Because deep in his pupils, the dark green flames representing toxins have become deeper and deeper, and are about to occupy the entire pupils, which is so gorgeous that it makes people feel heart-wrenching.
If he can't get out of this grassland and leave Zhou Garden, then his eyes may never be able to recover.
He had never told Qijian about this.
I don’t know how long it took, but the palm of my folded sleeve left Qijian’s back.
Qi Jian coughed twice, feeling the flow of true energy in his body that was slightly smoother, not as uncomfortable as before.
"What should I do next?" She looked at Zhexiu and asked softly, looking a little timid, as if she was worried that this issue would affect his mood.
Zhexiu looked at the terrifying shadow in the distance and remained silent. Recently, they have never encountered any monsters again. The grassland is very quiet and weird. He knew that it must be related to the huge shadow in the sky, but he didn't know what was going on there.
"There must be other human practitioners coming in." Qijian said: "That shadow may be a conspiracy of the demon clan. Should we go over and help?"
"No." Zhexiu said: "No matter whether it is the conspiracy of the demon clan or not, it has nothing to do with us."
Qi Jian opened his eyes wide and said without commenting: "But... maybe some human practitioners are being attacked."
Zhexiu said, "First of all, there is too far over there, we can't catch up. Secondly, we can't beat the big roc. Again, I am not a human practitioner, and I have no obligation to help those people. Finally, if I did not calculate it wrong, this matter may be our only chance to leave this grassland."
Qijian looked at his side face and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
She grew up in the Lishan Sword Sect since she was young, and the education she received made it impossible for her to see humans being attacked by the demons and ignore them. However, the reasons Zhexiu said were too sufficient, and the most important thing was that she knew very well that she was a burden to him during this journey of escape on the grassland, so she had no right to ask him to take risks again.
"The most important thing is that your injury is very serious. If you don't think of a solution, you will die soon." Zhexiu said as she looked at her expressionlessly.
Looking at his face, Qi Jian suddenly felt a little sad, thinking that he was going to die, how could you still be so calm?
Cheshui didn't know what she was thinking, and continued, "I just smelled the smell on the water. There should be a few drunken rosewoods two miles away in front."
Qi Jian's expression was slightly different and asked, "What is that?"
Zhexiu said: "A kind of wild grass, monster or war horse will fall into a coma after accidentally eating it."
Qijian suddenly had a very bad idea and asked, "Who are you going to give to?"
"Of course it's for you to eat."
Zhexiu felt that her question was very stupid, and frowned slightly and said, "Your mental loss is too great now. For some reason, I like to talk these days. It is obvious that it is because of the serious injury. After eating drunken rosewood, I have a good sleep. Although it is not good for the injury, at least you can hold on for a while longer."
Qijian was quiet for a while, then asked carefully: "Have you eaten that kind of grass?"
Cheshui said with a expressionless face: "After eating that kind of grass, I was sleepy and unconscious. Even a local rat could eat you, of course I have never eaten it."
Qijian said slightly annoyed, "Then let me eat it."
Zhexiu said, "I can't sleep, so you are naturally safe."
This is a simple objective explanation, but it falls into the ears of a fourteen-year-old girl, but it seems to be a promise, which makes her feel very warm.
"How long will you sleep after eating that grass?" she asked.
Zhexiu was silent for a while and said, "I haven't seen anyone eat it, so... I don't know."
Qijian was silent for a while and said, "Then do you want me to eat?"
The same five words are still the same, and the meanings are the same, but there are some subtle differences in emotions.
"No poison, nothing will happen."
"I don't want to eat."
"If my inference is correct, after eating that grass, you can at least hold on for ten more days."
"But it is possible to sleep for a hundred days or a thousand days."
"Do you humans like to speak so exaggeratedly?"
"I don't want to eat anyway." Qijian insisted.
