long night walk

Chapter 1633 Bridge Girl

Bailian suddenly stopped running, and his feet plowed two long traces on the soft ground.

He looked at the river with trembling eyes. The water was flowing like silver sand. Everything seemed normal.

There is an old broken bridge on the river which is not very turbulent. Half of the bridge has collapsed and is submerged in the river.

The body of the headless corpse was broken into two, but it was not completely dead. The two halves of the body were like severed earthworms, trying desperately to find the other half of their body. It looked funny, weird and terrifying.

Bailian said with emotion: "I have never seen a creature with such vigorous vitality."

Cang Nanyi sighed and said, "I've already said that he is no longer a living being."

Bailian then discovered that after the headless corpse was split in two, except for a large amount of dark red blood that initially flowed out of the cut, it was gradually diluted by the stream water and no longer bled. What flowed out of the wound again were strands of white things as wide and narrow as noodles, which were so dense that it made one's scalp numb just by looking at them.

The white noodles stretched and squeezed out the layer of broken and tiny noodles on the surface of the cut, and then rows of dense and complete white noodles floated and squirmed in the water, with great force, attracting each other towards the white noodles that emerged from the other half of their bodies.

It was unclear from the shore just now, but the headless corpse looked no different from ordinary immortals except that its body could become infinitely huge.

But now that he had entered that pool of water, it was like hot oil falling into a cold pot, or like the water in the stream or river had caused great harm to his body.

The snow-white 'noodles' suddenly emerged in a myriad of strands, and the reaction was extremely great.

Bailian then realized that the headless corpse Xingtian was indeed dead and his soul had died, and what maintained his life characteristics were actually these white tiny worms.

However, what is weird and terrifying is that it is not just one living creature that controls and maintains this body.

Rather, it is these hundreds, even thousands, almost tens of thousands of "tiny insects" that are controlled at the same time, and can display such amazing combat skills.

Bailian looked at the stream flowing like silver sand with a vigilant and focused gaze. He should have been the first one to touch this place, but it was the headless corpse that was attacked.

"Who can help me……"

At this moment, a faint woman's cry for help was heard in the air.

Bailian's body stiffened slightly.

There are other people in this place?

It's not that I doubt that there won't be other living beings in the Xuanyuan world outside the six realms, it's just that it's not a plane of space after all.

The universe is mysterious. Billions of living beings and races, each active in their own territories, cannot have only one language and culture.

However, it is incredible that one can hear human language in such a place that transcends boundaries.

The threat posed by the headless corpse disappeared temporarily, but that weird feeling still lingered around for a long time.

Bailian was not in a hurry to cross the stream, even though he could easily cross the stream and jump to the other side with the power of the broken bridge.

But Bailian had no idea what kind of danger was hidden on the other side.

If we go over it, the situation won't necessarily be safer than it is now.

He stood still by the river, the faint cry for help was intermittent but never far away. He followed the woman's weak and pitiful voice and walked a few meters along the shore, only to see a slender woman in white lying on the other side of the broken bridge.

The woman was charming and graceful, and therefore still attractive. Her body was pressed under the heavy broken bridge, looking extremely miserable. Her soaked and pale hands were weakly supported on the bottom of the stone bridge. She must have struggled for a long time. The sharp wet stones of the broken bridge had already cut her palms, and bright scarlet blood spread out. The woman looked in pain, and felt helpless.

Bailian, who was always willing to help others when he was young but gradually developed a cold-blooded and cold-hearted personality when he grew up, glanced at Cangnanyi and said, "Although your majesty doesn't know much about this unknown world, based on your knowledge, what do you think it means when you encounter such a situation?"

Cangnanyi raised his thin lips without any emotion and said calmly: "Please walk into the trap."

"Your Majesty, do you think... this is a better option now?"

"It's up to you. Maybe if you rescue her at this time, she will be grateful and show us the way?"

"When your majesty gives advice, why do you end it with a question?"

It was obvious that she herself felt that the possibility she mentioned was not desirable.

However, Bailian still walked towards the woman who kept asking for help.

Cangnanyi's eyebrows moved slightly: "Why, you really feel pity for a beautiful woman."

Bailian shook his head and sighed, saying, "After all, she is a girl. Although this place is strange and dangerous, according to common sense, it is impossible for an ordinary woman to be trapped in such a place. However, if we gamble her life with a one in ten thousand chance to avoid the risk, it would be too cruel for her."

Seeing Bailian finally jump onto the broken bridge, with his legs stuck deep in the mud of the stream, a layer of gratitude and expectation finally appeared on the sad face of the woman who was trapped under the broken bridge.

Bailian did not ask her how she was trapped here. With a slight movement of his eyes, the Tiance Junshan Sword appeared and hung above his head. He looked at the woman with an apologetic look and said, "Please forgive me, young lady. My daughter has been seriously injured and this place is full of dangers. I can't just leave her here. I have to use the power of the sword to pry up this broken bridge.

I don't know how good the girl is at swimming. When the bridge is built, it would be the best if she can get out. If she can't, I will have to jump into the water to rescue her. If it is physical contact, I hope you don't mind."

The girl had been soaking in the water for a long time, her face had already turned pale from the cold, not as pale as a living person. She choked on the water several times, her words were unclear, and she spoke incoherently: "Save...save me...save me...I won't mind..."

Bailian's eyes moved slightly, and a hint of restrained sword intent flashed across his eyes. The Tiance Junshan sword whistled down with a sharp sword wind, but it did not do as he said, sinking into the stream to pry up the broken bridge. Instead, it smashed straight and neatly onto the broken bridge deck.

Bailian smiled and said, "I've thought about it carefully. This bridge has been there since ancient times. How can I shake the earth and weld the bridge with my own strength? Rather than letting the girl wait in vain, it would be best for me to destroy the bridge directly to relieve the girl's hatred."

That being said, the bridge is neither gold nor iron. It is covered with mud and natural stones, covered with countless green algae, and does not look very solid.

However, the Tiance Junshan sword, which was as heavy as a thousand mountains, smashed down, and its sharp blade landed on the bridge surface, sparking a fatal spark, but failed to leave any trace on it.

The injured girl under the bridge screamed to the sky, with sharp, angry roars erupting from her mouth.

Although the bridge was intact, it and her body were thrown into the turbulent stream.

At the same time, Bailian did something completely contrary to his words. He bent his knees without hesitation and jumped out like an arrow.

In the blink of an eye, they had crossed the river.

Cangnanyi had a leisurely attitude as if he was having fun. He rested one arm on Bailian's back, supported his cheek, and laughed foolishly, saying, "You speak sincerely and compassionately, but when you stab people with your hands, you are not ambiguous at all."
