The lines of fire in the barrier were still lengthening and burning at the speed of a prairie fire, like a wall of fire, raging behind Shen Qiqi.
Everyone stood outside the barrier, terrified, staring at the slender figure in front of the wall of fire without blinking. They wished they could reach into the barrier and pull her out, for fear that she would run too slow and be swallowed by the wall of fire behind her.
Shen Qiqi also wished she could rush out immediately.
It's not that she's afraid of being roasted into dried meat - she put out the fire and it can't hurt her.
The main reason is that the smell in the barrier is too much of a test of people's endurance - the smell produced by the evil spirits burning when exposed to fire is all concentrated in the barrier and cannot be dissipated, so that the entire barrier is filled with the kind of burnt rotten flesh. The unpleasant stench left behind is so strong that it can bring the dead to life.
Fortunately, those evil spirits were extremely afraid of the spiritual fire released by Shen Qiqi.
Almost as soon as the fire light came on, the evil spirits that were pestering her and desperately trying to pounce on her all retreated in an instant, and their trembling could be seen through the black mist.
When the spiritual fire burned them, they immediately screamed in agony.
Men's roars, women's cries, children's cries, and even dogs barking... a big mess, exploding in the barrier like a tidal wave.
They screamed and screamed with all their strength and no longer bothered to stop Shen Qiqi. When they saw her coming, they would even move aside in fear.
Shen Qiqi almost rushed to the edge of the barrier without any hindrance, and then rushed out of the barrier.
Several evil spirits were hanging on the back of her buttocks, trying to escape.
Unfortunately, they just got out of the barrier, and before they had time to rejoice, they were devoured by the white tiger that had been guarding outside the barrier.
Xie Beiming's eyes never left Shen Qiqi from the beginning to the end. When he saw her leaving the barrier, he immediately stepped forward, supported her, and said to her in a gentle but firm voice: "Open your mouth."
She didn't know whether it was because she was severely smoked or because the smell of burning evil spirits was poisonous. Not only was Shen Qiqi's stomach churning violently, but her mind was also buzzing, as if there was a theater troupe beating gongs and drums in her mind. The big opera was so noisy that her brain hurt, and she could see double images in her eyes.
She vaguely heard Xie Beiming asking her to open her mouth, and she opened her mouth without even hesitating.
Something was stuffed into her mouth.
Then I heard Xie Beiming say: "Swallow it."
Shen Qiqi swallowed it again without hesitation. After swallowing, she realized what she was doing and looked at Xie Beiming with her eyes red from the thick smoke.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie, what did you feed me just now? It's so bitter."
The whole mouth is filled with that bitter taste, and it feels like chewing a raw coptis.
However, after swallowing the thing, the turbulence in Shen Qiqi's stomach was immediately stopped, and even the troupe who was beating gongs and drums and singing the opera in her mind stopped moving.
Shen Qiqi reacted belatedly, and before Xie Beiming could speak, she asked and answered herself: "Oh, I know, the gases produced by the burning evil spirits are poisonous, and what you just gave me was the antidote! "
After she finished speaking, she looked at Xie Beiming with bright eyes, asking for praise without realizing it.
Xie Beiming generously praised her for being "smart", then frowned and criticized her in a low voice: "I don't know what it is, but you dare to swallow it. Aren't you afraid it's poison?"
"..." Shen Qiqi thought to herself, isn't it because the person speaking is you? Try someone else?
But for things like this, she could just think about it in her own mind and say... let's forget it.
So Shen Qiqi rolled her eyes, tilted her head, and asked Xie Beiming: "Master Xie, will you feed me poison?"
"..."
Mr. Xie stared at her for a moment, then took out a pill and said in a clear voice: "My brain is still fuzzy. It seems that one detoxification pill is not enough. How about taking another one?"
"...cough!" Shen Qiqi straightened her back quickly and looked directly at Mr. Xie with clear eyes, "It's a medicine that is three parts poisonous. It's better not to take it, and I think I'm much more awake now." ,real."
Just kidding, the detoxification pills that Xie Beiming took out were simply more bitter than chewing raw coptis. Taking it once can leave an unforgettable shadow for a lifetime.
If there were another one, it would be a fatal act.
Also, under normal circumstances, when she asked such a question, shouldn't Xie Beiming give her a cold glance and then leave her with an aloof back?
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xie actually responded to her today.
Not only did he respond to her, he also learned to fight back... When did the cold and cold Young Master Xie, the Flower of the High Mountains, become tainted with the aura of human fireworks?
Shen Qiqi looked at Xie Beiming suspiciously, wanting to grab the other person's sleeve and ask, "Are you okay?"
However, when her eyes fell on the detoxification pill in Xie Beiming's hand, which looked crystal clear but was actually as bitter as coptis, Shen Qiqi decisively put the thought away.
Something didn't seem right with Xie Beiming today. There were emotions in her eyes that she couldn't understand. It was better for her not to seek death.
Just concentrate on your work.
Compared to Shen Qiqi and Xie Beiming, the others were not as relaxed and relaxed as they were. They were all holding swords and guarding the boundary with tense expressions. Whenever any evil spirit came out, they would immediately and politely kill them. Kill him with the sword.
One sword at a time, clean and tidy, effortless, and easier than waiting for something to happen.
As the spiritual fire in the barrier grew stronger and stronger, the evil spirits let out even sharper and harsher screams, as if they were suffering some unbearable torture, which made everyone outside the barrier feel numb.
