Chapter 59: Jade and Stone Burning(1/2)
In the Xixue Valley, Yuxu helped the owner of the valley before reaching the backyard. He saw a frightening bluish white on the face of the valley owner from the center of his eyebrows. He finally couldn't stand still and slowly sat down against the plum tree in the center.
"Aunt, aunt, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Yuxu burst into tears. Only now did she regret that she didn't study medical skills well and couldn't help at the critical moment. The Valley Master took a breath and lifted up his sleeves to relieve himself.
After removing the bandage, the wound just bitten by the living corpse was pitch black, and thick plasma squeezed out like paste. She was startled and blurted out, "What... what is this?"
"It's corpse poison. Why can't you even see this..." The Valley Master frowned, scolded his niece, and shook his head, "This poison dissipated too quickly. Those twenty or so people outside just now should be all
Died from corpse poison."
"Dead?" Yuxu covered her mouth, afraid that she would cry out. The two dozen wounded people outside were all dead?
Xixue Valley Master gritted her teeth and had no time to care about her injuries. She grabbed Yuxu's hand and while she was still conscious, she quickly ordered: "Leave me alone until all those people are moved to the east courtyard.
, you go and open the formation in the east courtyard and trap them inside first!"
"Then what should you do?" She asked blankly before she had time to think about her aunt's words. The master of Xixue Valley, Pi Tou, scolded him, "I told you to leave me alone. There are dozens of disciples in the valley.
If you can't open the magic circle in time, everyone will die! You... you go now, to the leftmost mechanism at the bottom of Hougu Shuangtian Lake, circle three times to the left and two times to the right, then press it down three times, and then lift it up
, remember not to do it backwards."
"Oh, I, I remember!" Yuxu didn't dare to say more. She was about to leave but then stopped hesitantly, hesitating and not daring to look at her aunt.
"You, what's wrong with you?" The master of Xixue Valley frowned, and Yuxu stamped her feet anxiously, crying, "Are you at the bottom of Shuangtian Lake? But I...but I can't swim!"
At this time, the Master of Xixue Valley no longer had the extra energy to scold this unsatisfactory niece, but the cold sweat on his forehead came one after another, making him dizzy.
Xixue Valley is the hometown of Frost Sky Phoenix. With the help of Lady Feng Ji, a group of helpless orphan girls took root here. Feng Ji brought them the first few medical books, hoping that they could learn more.
Be good and become a useful person.
In order to protect this group of orphans from being bullied, Lady Fengji left behind two magic circles before she left. One was centered on the frosty phoenix, which attracted frosty snow to protect the inner valley, and planted and watered various precious medicinal materials. The other
One type is hidden in the east courtyard of the outer valley. Once an unpredictable crisis occurs, they will introduce the disaster into the east courtyard. The east courtyard is the tacit secret code of all the disciples. As long as the valley master orders special patients to be moved into the east courtyard, then they will
This means that unpredictable dangers will occur in the valley.
But that kind of technique is the technique of burning jade and stone. In order to prevent the disciples in the valley from accidentally touching it, it has been hidden very well. In the hundreds of years since the establishment of Xixue Valley, it has only been activated once. Later, when Lady Fengji came back, she restored the formation.
, and hid the new mechanism under Hougu Shuangtian Lake.
Several major disciples in Neigu will learn the art of latent breathing, and even carry "water-avoiding pills" commonly used in the black market, but Yuxu has just arrived, and he has not had time to mention these things to his niece!
"You, go and get...go and call your Aunt Hong and ask her to...cough, cough..." Without finishing a word, the master of Xixue Valley vomited out blood, which frightened Yuxu into panic.
He quickly helped pat his aunt on the back.
The Valley Master's face turned green and white, and he was as angry as a gossamer. Black blood climbed all the way down his neck, almost covering his face.
"Valley Master!" Yun Xiao rushed in after hearing the voice and grabbed the injured arm of the Valley Master. The wound had begun to rot, and the pus and blood flowing out gave off a stench. "Quickly, help him into the house. I'll go find him."
The doctor outside..."
"Don't! Don't waste time!" The Valley Master quickly grabbed her, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and exhaled, "Yuxu, tell Miss Yun what I just told you, take her to Shuangtian Lake, don't, don't worry about it
Me!"
"Auntie..." Yuxu didn't dare to disobey her aunt, but she knew that leaving her aunt at this time would lead to death. Yunxiao was naturally aware of the current situation. She hesitated at all and suddenly took off the sun disk under her hand.
, Xixue Valley Master's eyes lit up, and he immediately guessed what she wanted to do. She pushed Yun Xiao away with force, and gasped, "Don't take off that ring! That thing is to save your life... You don't know that thing
How important it is to Lady Feng Ji! She is willing to give it to you, which means you are more important to her! I don’t want this, but if you think about it because I saved you, go to Shuangtian Lake quickly and don’t delay any more!"
Even her eyes were clearly starting to wander, but her words still seemed so unreasonable.
The existence of Xixuegu today is all thanks to Lady Fengji. Her body was getting weaker day by day, and she could only rely on long-term self-sealing to relieve the pain. However, even so, her body's deterioration was far beyond its limit.
, Xixuegu did not hesitate to seal the inner valley and went against the benevolent purpose of the doctor, just to have enough energy and materials to treat Lady Fengji when she suddenly came to visit!
The inner valley rarely admits patients. Except for special cases like Yun Xiao, only some rare aliens can enter the inner valley. The valley owners in the past generations will take special care of those rare aliens who are on the verge of extinction, because Lady Feng Ji is the head of the hundred spirits. Those rare aliens can enter the inner valley.
There is no doubt that people are also extremely important to her.
"Okay." Hearing the decisive tone in her words, Yun Xiao's heart skipped a beat. The Valley Master urged anxiously, his eyes had lost their luster, and he kept mumbling, "Go quickly... Disciples in the valley
There are dozens of people, all orphans... We can't, we can't let them have no home..."
"Let's go." Yun Xiao grabbed the crying Yuxu and ran towards the back valley. Xixue Valley is actually a valley, surrounded by mountains. The innermost mountain is the habitat of Shuangtian Phoenix, and Shuangtian Lake is located in that mountain.
At the foot of the mountain is an irregular natural lake.
Yun Xiao and Yu Xu walked to the edge of the lake and stretched out their hands to explore the water. There was a thin layer of snow on the surface of the lake, but it was not frozen. The water was as calm as a mirror, without a single ripple.
In fact, the three holy spirits on Feiyuan rarely show up, and basically do not interfere with the affairs within the territory. Just like the mountain opposite is quiet at this time, and the shadow of Frost Sky Phoenix is not visible at all.
"How to get down there?" Yu Xu asked puzzledly, pointing to Shuangtian Lake carefully, "I don't know how deep this lake is, and it's so icy with snow falling on it. Human body temperature cannot be in this kind of water.
If you stay here too long, you will freeze to death."
"I won't freeze to death, I just need to go down." Yun Xiao continued, untied his coat and threw it to her, "Wait for me up there, don't go away."
"Hey, you, please be careful..." Yuxu wanted to say something more, but Yunxiao had already jumped into the lake and sank to the bottom of the lake.
She has the breath of the spirit phoenix to protect her body, and she has been able to basically master the frost and snow in the past few days. This coldness is really nothing to her. The lake is very clean, with neither aquatic plants nor fish. The faint light is actually Photo from the bottom of the lake.
After diving all the way to the depths, Yun Xiao was surprised to find that she had stepped on a mirror and couldn't help but bend down to touch it.
There were ripples of water on the "mirror surface", and a surge of spiritual power came from the opposite side. Through this mysterious mirror at the bottom of the lake, Yun Xiao suddenly discovered that it was a world covered with bones!
She looked in front of her in surprise, wanting to touch what was going on, but there was only cold lake water where her palm touched, and the scene in the mirror seemed to be just a reflection of another world. The road of bones continued to stretch, and the bones There are even unknown white flowers blooming on it.
Wherever she could see, a fiery figure slept among the bones. Her face was calm and her breathing was steady.
Such a scene distracted her for a moment. The woman's fiery dress was spread like petals on the white bones, and her long black hair was sprinkled on the fiery dress, as if there was only one thing left in that mysterious world. Such eye-catching red, black and white.
"Feng Ji..." Yun Xiao muttered silently in her heart. That person was clearly the leader of the hundred spirits who brought her to Xixue Valley, Feng Ji!
At this moment, perhaps attracted by the breath of the spiritual phoenix, the woman sleeping in the bones suddenly opened her eyes, her fiery eyes looked into nothingness, Feng Ji sank for a moment, and said: "It's you... where are you?" ?”
Yun Xiao also wanted to reply, but she was in the lake and couldn't make a sound.
The other party seemed not to be able to see her, but he could feel her presence, and continued to ask: "It's Shuangtian's breath. Are you in Shuangtian Lake? What happened in Xixue Valley?"
She desperately wanted to tell Feng Ji the current situation in Xixue Valley, so she could only try to tap the mirror repeatedly, and the water ripples appeared. Feng Ji frowned slightly, as if she felt something, but she did not stand up, but just sat upright. She lifted her body and opened her palms. The moment the Spiritual Phoenix Fire suddenly ignited, Frost Sky Phoenix heard the instructions and flew out from the back mountain. Feng Ji then said: "I can't leave now. I can only order Frost Sky Phoenix to assist you. Come here." Most likely you are going to Shuangtian Lake to open the East Courtyard Magic Formation, so I’ll take you there.”
The moment Feng Ji looked up, Yun Xiao was surprised to find that her face was pale and very haggard.
Before she could look more carefully, the water flow in the lake began to change, and soon she was pushed to the magic circle in the center of the lake. Yun Xiao stretched out her hand nervously, and according to the owner of the valley, touched the gear on the far left, and pressed it hard Turning, she gritted her teeth and realized that it was actually very difficult to turn the gear manually, and she needed to attach spiritual power to it to drive it.
With a "click", there was a crisp sound from the bottom of the lake, as if some secret mechanism was opened, the water flow instantly became turbulent, and a strong suction force seemed to suck her whole body into the bottom of the lake!
The next moment, a pair of invisible hands dragged her body and sent her directly back to Shuangtian Lake. Yun Xiao looked straight at the lake. Where was Feng Ji? Why could she see through Shuangtian Lake? To her?
"So fast! Has the magic circle been opened?" Yuxu grabbed her, but she didn't expect that things would go so smoothly. Looking at Shuangtian Lake, a vortex rolled up on the lake, and the water flowed crazily to the ground.
The frosty phoenix circled the lake several times and flew towards the inner valley.
"Well, let's go back and take a look." Without enough time to think about it, Yun Xiao twisted the clothes on her body, took the coat and put it on her body. Yu Xu said hurriedly: "Go back and change your clothes first. Even if there is geothermal heat in the valley,
You can't dry your clothes if they get wet, you'll catch a cold after a while..."
"It doesn't matter, I'll do it by myself in a while." Yun Xiao shook her head, tied up her hair, and regardless of Yu Xu's doubts, pulled her back to the inner valley.
Returning to the backyard again, the owner of the valley had lost consciousness. She was leaning against the white plum tree, her face completely covered in deathly gray. At this time, a doctor had returned to the inner valley, but he could only helplessly shed tears.
Yun Xiao remained silent, just clenched her hands tightly - most corpse poisons are almost incurable, because this kind of poison spreads very fast, and even if it can be saved, it must be very fast. They come here one by one
At least half an hour later, the Valley Master had already passed the critical period of saving his life.
"Aunt? Aunt?" Yuxu couldn't believe her eyes and stretched out her hand to wake her up. A moment ago, her aunt was still scolding herself. Why did she become so quiet after such a while?
went?
"Don't touch!" The people around her quickly opened her hand. Only then did Yuxu see the person in front of her clearly. Tears finally flowed out, "Aunt Hong, it's all my fault! It's all my fault that I don't study medicine well. If I do it again
If you study more seriously, you can save your aunt just now! It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"
Aunt Hong sighed, turned to Yun Xiao, and finally asked: "Are those living corpses outside coming for you? Who are you? What is your relationship with Lady Feng Ji?"
Yun Xiao bit her lip, suppressed her anger, and said in a low voice: "If she is willing to recognize me, I should... be her sister. I know it is useless to say sorry now, but I will definitely guard Xixue Valley... I will definitely
I will protect the owner of the valley."
"Hey, what are you going to do?" Seeing her rushing out in anger, Aunt Hong quickly held her down, "I have ordered the inner valley disciples to take the patients to Xuecheng for refuge first.
The formation is a technique of burning jade and stone together. It will trap the people inside and bury them underground together. The impact of this formation is huge. Although the inner valley is protected by frost and snow, it cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof. Hurry up and take Yuxu to the snow city to hide.
Just hide."
"There is someone who may be able to escape, I have to go and watch." Yun Xiao's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly remembered the strange figure in the eyes of the old village chief just now, and said, "You guys take my sword spirit and leave.
The spirit can ward off evil spirits, so even if there are living corpses chasing you on the road, you won't dare to approach easily."
Before the words were spoken, the person had already left. Aunt Hong and Yu Xu looked at each other, knowing that staying at this time would only be a hindrance. Aunt Hong took off her coat and covered the Valley Master, sighing: "Ahe, you have to be strong in your life.
, in the end we have to risk our lives to protect these orphans, we can’t take you away with us, don’t worry, Xixue Valley will not be destroyed, I will definitely take them home.”
Yuxu held back her tears, kowtowed to her aunt three times, and then went back to the house to take away the Green Charm Sword.
"Let's go from the back mountain." Aunt Hong glanced at Waigu. Although she was extremely worried, she still pretended to be calm.
At the same time, the east courtyard was surrounded by layers of strange magic. The frosty sky phoenix landed on the rockery outside the courtyard. Yun Xiao strode up, and through the thick magic circle, he suddenly heard the strange laughter coming from inside.
"Shuangtian, come back." She waved inexplicably for the Shuangtian Phoenix, and the divine bird actually flew over with understanding.
