Chapter 77: A second thought(1/2)
A bottomless hole was made on the stage in the east of the city, and bursts of cold air came out from the hole. Xiao Qianye jumped in, and the bone wings on his back started to flap instinctively again, and he was surprised to find that his body appeared.
A terrifying change. Compared with eight years ago when he only grew scales and fur that resembled animal claws, this time he even grew bone wings and horns!
At a certain moment just now, he felt that he had completely lost his mind. Taking off the old man's arm with his bare hands, chasing and killing the weird monster in front of him was so exciting and pleasurable for him.
Xiao Qianye pressed his forehead hard and gritted his teeth - the instinct of the beast became more and more obvious, and he could not even control it at all. At that moment, he did not consider Yun Xiao's situation at all, he just wanted to tear the monster in front of him into pieces.
fragments.
This hole is very deep. Judging from his speed, it must be at least more than two thousand feet! After approaching the bottom, there was the sound of turbulent water. Xiao Qianye stepped into the ground, with the bone wings on his back and the horns on his head.
They broke in unison and fell to the ground.
These things... seem to disappear after his mood returns to normal.
With no time to worry about his abnormality, Xiao Qianye's icy blue eyes keenly noticed Yun Xiao who fell into the water in the dark. Her whole body was covered with a thick layer of ice, and the underground undercurrent rushed through the ice and spread to
Both sides of the bank made the already moist soil even muddy.
"Ah Xiao!" He exclaimed, but found that he could not take a step forward. A huge fear arose in his heart, and he did not dare to take a step forward - if he fell from such a high place, even if he fell into the undercurrent, he might be injured.
Directly killed?
"Ah Xiao..." He held his breath and leaned over with difficulty, stretched out his hands tremblingly, and his mind went blank.
Did she die? Just like this silently...died in front of herself? She lay quietly on the ice, letting the cold undercurrent wash over her body. It was the layer of ice that protected her and cushioned the fall.
Strength.
Still alive! Xiao Qianye breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't hide the joy on his face. He jumped directly into the water, carefully lifted Yun Xiao up on the ice, and saw her closed eyelids moving slightly.
, then Youyou breathed out, and smiled softly the moment she saw him.
"You, how can you still laugh?" Xiao Qianye held back his emotions, not knowing whether to blame or be happy. He wanted to pick her up and carry her to the land next to him. The moment he leaned over to pick her up, his face changed.
Stiff, her body was covered with bright red blood, flowing out continuously from the torn skin. The entire skirt was wet and had begun to freeze with a thin layer of ice. He carefully pressed his hands on Yun Xiao's legs.
Then he checked her arms and said with a trembling voice: "The bones are broken... You, you are broken like this, all the bones in your body..."
After saying this, Xiao Qianye's face darkened, and he carefully pressed his back, spine and chest. Yun Xiao shook his head: "Shuangtian Phoenix caught me when I fell. These injuries... were caused when I was hit on the ground.
What was left, at that time, I could only try my best to protect the vital parts of my body, other places... it was too late."
"Frost sky..." Xiao Qianye pondered. No wonder ice suddenly appeared in this underground undercurrent! He continued, "Can't that bird heal your injuries? Where is it?"
"Shuangtian just suppressed the spirit phoenix's breath with force, it can't heal the wounds..." Yun Xiao smiled bitterly, and saw a layer of ice mist pouring out of her body, and then seeping into the skin bit by bit, "It's in my body
Here, I let it use frost and snow to stick the broken bones together, and for the time being... I can't let it leave my body anymore."
"Broken bones stuck together?" Xiao Qianye repeated her words incredulously, reaching out to press Yun Xiao's legs again. Sure enough, the bones that were broken into pieces just now seemed to be really connected together again!
This is something incredible and beyond common sense!
"Get out of here first." Yun Xiao put her arm around his shoulders and wanted to stand up. Xiao Qianye shook his head and hugged her directly, cursing, "Don't move around, bones, bones can't do it."
Pick it up yourself, I'll take you to the doctor in Xuecheng."
"Wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap if you go to Xuecheng now?" Yun Xiao quickly stopped him and turned his arm slightly, "You take out the Fengshen from my sleeve and use your sword skills to get out first. Your elder brother should be nearby...
However, Fengshen has no entity and is not easy to control. Just go find him yourself. I will wait for you here."
"No, I can't leave you alone." Xiao Qianye refused, staring at the surroundings with vigilant eyes, "There is only one main river in Jialuo, the glacier, but there are many tributaries. The current underground undercurrent is probably also a glacier.
One of the tributaries of the river, but I didn’t expect that there would be an underground river in such a deep place. This place looks like it was dug manually. I don’t know what it was used for when it was dug so deep, leaving you alone.
It’s too dangerous here.”
"Ah...you don't have to worry about this." Yun Xiao smiled and lit up a ball of flame at his fingertips to illuminate the surroundings, "The Earthbound Spirit said that this place used to be a town where the Immortal Python Clan lived. This abyss
It's what they use to change their skins, you see there's still thick snakeskin under your feet!"
Only then did Xiao Qianye notice that he was stepping on a piece of shed snake skin. He couldn't help but frown. He carried Yun Xiao and walked to the side against the wall. He swept the ground with his feet. These skins were very
Thick. After kicking for a while, he found that there was still snakeskin underneath. He didn't know how thick the layer was, so he had to give up.
"Let's use these snake skins to make a fire to keep warm first." Yun Xiao motioned for him to put down her body first, put the snake skins into a pile and lit them with spiritual fire, "But the snake skins are not resistant to burning, and they still have an unpleasant smell, so we'll make do with it."
Bar."
"Yeah." Xiao Qianye sat down against her, feeling cold on her body for the first time, and asked with lowered eyes, "Are you cold?"
"Hmm... It's a bit cold." Yun Xiao nodded. In fact, she had never felt cold since she was a child, even in places like Kunlun Mountain. The fire in her body had been burning endlessly, but now, she also
She didn't know whether it was due to the poison or the severe injuries to her body, but she actually felt a chill that penetrated her bones, making her shiver uncontrollably.
"Lean on me." Xiao Qianye reached out and hugged her. Yun Xiao looked at his actions in surprise. This wooden lump actually became enlightened?
However, the next moment, she felt a deeper cold on Xiao Qianye. The cold seemed to seep out from the depths of the bone marrow, even colder than the frosty snow in her body!
Yun Xiao said nothing and carefully observed his expression. He didn't seem to notice any abnormalities in his body, but just stared at the flames in front of him without moving.
"Hey, this..." Yun Xiao's eyes narrowed, and she leaned over and hugged his face to look carefully. There was a small, oval-shaped mark on his forehead, which seemed to be left after the wound was removed.
Suddenly thinking of the half-animal Xiao Qianye she had seen in Biluohai, Yun Xiao hurriedly reached out to check his back. Sure enough, there was a hole in the clothes on his back, and there was also a hole in the exposed skin.
The same seal!
"Qianye, have you... become like that again?" She asked cautiously, and then she saw a bone wing and a black gold horn falling from the snake skin not far away.
Xiao Qianye did not speak, but just followed her gaze and looked over again. Although those things would directly penetrate the skin when they grew out, they would not make him feel any pain, and they would not even leave any traces when they fell off.
Lower scars.
"That's great." Yun Xiao saw what he was thinking, grabbed his hand and comforted, "You see you can recover on your own, so you don't need me to hurt myself to save you anymore, right? This can be considered a good thing, right?
?”
"You..." Xiao Qianye clenched his hands subconsciously and looked at Yun Xiao in shock and confusion, "Aren't you afraid of me at all?"
"Why should I be afraid of you?" Yun Xiao blinked and pulled up his sleeves, revealing a few fiery phoenix feathers on his exposed arms. "Look, aren't there some strange things about me? Aren't you?
Aren't you afraid of me?"
"This is different." Xiao Qianye nodded slightly, not daring to look into her eyes, and murmured to himself, "I can't control my power, and I may even lose my mind because of it. It's like... like a real monster, the big brother is out of control.
It must have been the same situation when we massacred Tianzheng Mansion, right? Ah Xiao, I'm scared, I'm really scared, you were thrown into this abyss by a monster, my first reaction was not to save you, but,
Instead, go after that monster!"
"Yeah... But you're still here, that's enough." Yun Xiao laughed silently, reaching out to cover his eyes, "Come on, close your eyes first."
"What are you doing?" Xiao Qianye asked strangely. When she took her hand away again, she saw Yun Xiao face to face with him, almost close to his face, staring at her eyes seriously, she gently
He breathed, blew on his face, and said with a smile, "Your ice blue eyes are so beautiful, I don't find them scary at all."
"Okay, good-looking?" Xiao Qianye looked at her hesitantly, not noticing for a moment that his face was already blushing, and his ice-blue eyes were the unique features of a ferocious beast. Everyone who had seen these eyes were
Without exception, she showed a look of horror. Why did she think it looked good?
"Sometimes I can't control myself. Didn't Lady Feng Ji say that I might lose control and be burned to death by the spirit phoenix breath in my body, so... we are still very similar, right?" Yun Xiao said tightly.
Then he sighed silently after what he just said, pressed his chest strangely, and suddenly asked, "The breath of the spirit phoenix seems not as strong as before. I don't know whether it is the frost and snow that have played an role, or the poison that binds the king's water prison."
It worked. Speaking of which, is the poison on your body okay now?"
"Yeah." Xiao Qianye nodded and smiled bitterly, "The moment I lost my mind... the poison seemed to have lost its effectiveness. My body is really weird. The ants that got into my body before couldn't do anything.
It works, but it is completely unable to resist these poisons, and now it disappears inexplicably on its own."
Yun Xiao held her chin, thinking about his words, and guessed: "Those ants seem to be a bit like the voodoo technique in Miao territory in the Central Plains. It is a kind of witchcraft that uses ants as bait to control people. I guess it is Qiongqi's physical strength.
The poisoned ants are too powerful to control you, right? But poison itself is completely different from witchcraft. Didn’t you say that the poison of King Binding Water Prison was tested on countless people and aliens?
There must have been some very rare aliens, right?"
"I'm not sure. The King Binding Water Prison is actually not within my scope of authority." Xiao Qianye shook his head, "You said Qiongqi's body is strong? But I have repeatedly failed in strange spells, and it doesn't necessarily happen every time.
Useful every time.”
"If you don't study hard, you can't blame others now." Yun Xiao reminded in a low voice and smiled, "If you become my teacher, I can teach you, um... Come on, call me master, and I will teach you now.
Spiritual Fire Technique!"
"Don't move." Xiao Qianye frowned and cursed, picked up a piece of snake skin and threw it into the fire in front of him. He said in a deep voice, "A Xiao, I know you have an optimistic temperament, but you still pretend to be fine after being injured like this.
I'm afraid that I'm worried, but the way I looked just now has been seen by the earthbound spirit, and it will definitely report it to Your Majesty soon. By that time, it may not be the way it is now to secretly arrest me, Ah Xiao, I think
...No, it’s not that I want to, it’s that I must send you back to Kunlun.”
"I don't want it!" Yun Xiao refused without thinking, and Xiao Qianye couldn't help but said, "This matter is not negotiable. It will be a matter of time before I am wanted throughout the country. You can't stay..."
"I don't want to go back!" Yun Xiao interrupted him, turned away unhappily, and muttered in a low voice, "You must want me to go back, and you must come with me. Even if I am wanted throughout the country, I will definitely not be able to control the Central Plains.
If you go back with me, I don't believe they can go to Kunlun Mountain to catch you!"
"No." Xiao Qianye shook his head with a complicated expression, "There are still many military pavilion guards in the four realms. If I leave, they will definitely execute them all. I can't be so selfish and don't care about the lives of others."
"Then you are so selfish and don't care about my...my..." Yun Xiao answered angrily. I don't know if it was due to violent mood swings, but a line of blood was left in his mouth. Xiao Qianye was shocked.
Yun Xiao covered his mouth, wanting to cough but unable to breathe, but blood kept pouring out, and he panicked and said hurriedly, "Don't be angry, I...I won't send you back, don't be angry,
Just calm down."
Although Yun Xiao was out of breath, she still found it funny when she saw his nervous look, so she simply threw herself into his arms, hugged him and never let go.
