Legend of the Demon Emperor of Kyushu

Chapter 146
The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, and the horseman walks alone in the wilderness.

"hiss--"

The war horse was reined in, and with a long hiss, it obediently stopped in place.

The man on the horse adjusted his breath and looked up at the sky.

Two horses, but only one man.

Why is this happening?

That's what the rider was thinking.

He should have gone through a big battle, dealt with the enemy's pursuit, narrow escape or death in battle.

However, the reality is——

Gu Feng stared at Ju Jiang silently——

How the hell did I come out of Xueling!
Skull pain.

After parting with Ye Ziqi, he was ready to face the barbarian old shaman alone.

How to delay time, how to set up traps... He thought a lot, but the enemy didn't come.

So, he went back to look for Ye Ziqi, but Ye Ziqi listened to him very much, sat on Ye Zi and flew away without leaving any footprints.

He searched in the mountains for several days, but found nothing.

He thought, if Ye Ziqi was still alive, he would go back to Hanye City and meet him there.

Another possibility, he didn't want to think about it yet.

So, he cautiously approached the south exit of the mountain, guarding against the situation of being ambushed by archers like last time.

Be careful, be careful...

Just like that, I left the snowy ridge safely and came to the wilderness where the Jujiang River flows.

The enemy has retreated.

Gu Feng felt a huge sense of absurdity. Before, he was so ambushed and had no way to survive, but when he escaped, it was unbelievably easy, as if everything was just being played in the hands of fate.

From now on, they can only go back to Cold Leaf City.

Gu Feng drove his horse to the Ju River to drink water, his blood-stained shadow and the vast sky were reflected in the surging water, as if this was all that was left in the world.

Gu Feng suddenly remembered a folk song circulating in the North:
"Longtou flowing water,
Drifting down the mountain.

miss me all
Floating in the wilderness. "(Note)
The war horse shook its head and was reined in again. The wandering people rode forward.

……

"General, my subordinate's wound doesn't hurt anymore, it's probably healed."

On the top of Xueling Peak, Ye Ziqi said to Baichengshuang again.

"Yeah." Baichengshuang withdrew her hand. In order to heal Ye Ziqi, her own spiritual power was almost exhausted, but she still said uneasy: "Your external injury was barely healed, but the inside of your body is still severely damaged. Try if you can stand up."

"Of course—" Ye Ziqi stood up confidently, and stretched his arms forward: "Hey——"

With the strength that he had held back for a long time, Ye Ziqi pulled himself up, but then his legs became weak, as if there was nothing under his feet, he couldn't step on anything, and his whole body fell forward.Fortunately, Baichengshuang grabbed his shoulder.

"No, General, I can still—" Ye Ziqi lowered his breath, stabbed his legs firmly, but then his legs lost strength, and he almost knelt down.

Ye Ziqi closed his eyes and went straight into the inner sea: "Old monster, what the hell are you doing? Are you still taking revenge on me? I said that you took out the gluttonous inner alchemy—"

The old demon head Jin Jin stared wide-eyed: "It has nothing to do with me, you bastard! If you dissipate the demon power, you can expect it to be healed in half a day? Want to stand up? Let's talk about it in ten days!"

"Ten days? Then I won't be a burden, what should I do if I encounter enemies again?"

"If you encounter it, you will die, there is no way to save it. If you spit out the inner alchemy of this seat, you will never want to practice martial arts again in this life!"

Ye Ziqi raised his fist and punched the big demon eye, but the old demon head disappeared as soon as he closed his golden eyes.

Ye Ziqi had no choice but to open his eyes: "Damn..."

Before he could say any more, Ye Ziqi suddenly felt his whole body being lifted up.

"General—"

"I'll carry you on my back." Baichengshuang said.

Ye Ziqi was thinking about the defense between men and women, and the difference between superiority and inferiority, and immediately panicked: "How dare the subordinates tire the general—"

"Do you want Ben to keep you here?" Bai Chengshuang said in a low voice, "You never abandoned me, and I will never abandon you."

Ye Ziqi had no choice but to lie on Baichengshuang's shoulder, his face was itchy because of Baichengshuang's thick hair, and he couldn't speak.

Fortunately, Baichengshuang walked down the mountain very quickly, and he didn't look like he was under pressure because he was carrying someone behind his back.Ye Ziqi couldn't help recalling the scene when he was fighting Taotie. He was only good at the Luogong Jue, but in the end he competed with the severely injured Taotie, and he could only last for a while.

And Baichengshuang had wrestled head-on with the harmless demon king from the very beginning, pushing its body back, not to mention that her strengths were not in strength, but in martial arts and spells.

Such a gap, such a strength, how did one cultivate it?

If what the old demon head said is true...

Have you never had the chance to become so strong in your life?
I don't know how long it has passed, the chill has gradually subsided, they have descended the mountainside, and walked to the mountain road overgrown with green grass, beside them are no longer big trees and small trees with white arms stretching out in all directions, but vines entangled all over the ground, Thick bushes blocked the way.

The vitality of early spring is also reflected in the small animals that have ended their hibernation and emerged from the ground. In the woods, owls are knocking on the trees, and rabbits, squirrels, and foxes have all come out to look for food.

Baichengshuang shoots ice edges in the air, hunts rabbits, and uses the spiritual power of ice and snow to make ice cups, and scoops water from the small river to drink.

Ye Ziqi couldn't help but feel very happy, when he was in the underground palace, he could still eat with grain pills, but he could only rely on Baichengshuang to extract water with spiritual power, which was pitifully small.

The two ate and drank by the river formed by the melting ice and snow, and then looked south in unison.From there the river flowed down the mountain and merged into a long river, the Jujiang River, which flowed to my hometown in the desolate countryside.

Baichengshuang said: "You rest here, I will do something."

After thinking for a while, he took out a small object from his waist, cylindrical shape, with a hole in the middle, half a foot long, made of wood and iron, and put it on Ye Zikai's hand.

"This is the sending mechanism made by Mr. Qi. If you are in danger, just turn the side with the hole up and pull the mechanism. Fireworks will spray out from inside. I will rush back immediately when I see it."

Seeing Baichengshuang's earnest instructions, Ye Ziqi understood how powerless he was at this moment, making people worry, and how like a drag, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, but he still pretended to smile: "Thank you, General, my subordinates caught."

Baichengshuang walked away, and after a while, he came back carrying two trees.

Ye Ziqi was puzzled and didn't ask any further questions.Baichengshuang put down the tree and left. After a while, he brought two more trees, and repeated several times. A total of eight trees were placed on the ground, and many wild vines were brought back.

Baichengshuang raised the cold soul gun and used it as an axe to cut off the branches of the trees, leaving only the thick and long log trunk.

The vines are then soaked in water to make flexible ropes that bind the resulting logs.

When binding, five thick logs are placed side by side, and two thinner ones are used as beams on top. She binds and reinforces each node where the round logs intersect.

In this way, from noon to dusk, after a few hours of busy work, a wooden raft was made.

Baichengshuang cut a piece of wood from the last tree and used it as an oar, then pushed the raft into the river, releasing spiritual power at the same time, freezing the river so that the river could not push the boat away.

After finishing all these, Baichengshuang looked back at Ye Ziqi and smiled: "Let's go?"

Ye Ziqi immediately understood that Baichengshuang didn't plan to spend the night in the mountains to rest, even if she fought in the daytime, she was anxious to return to the capital as soon as possible to prepare for the battle, so she responded, "I will accompany you."

So the two got on the raft, the river was rushing, but Bai Chengshuang, who was equipped with the Taiyi water-walking skill taught by Yuan Yimen, cooperated with the magic to control the raft, so they would not let them fall into the water.

Ye Ziqi was lying on the raft, watching the raft rushing down, the sound of the water on both sides was galloping like a horse's hoof, turbulent back and forth, but he just couldn't fall, he just felt very happy and comfortable.

When the raft flows into the Ju River, it becomes stable; when the sky flows into the night, it becomes lonely.

Ye Ziqi was lying on the beam with his pillow, Baichengshuang was standing and shaking the oars, the oars stirred up the clear water sound, which echoed far away under the cool wind and dark moon.

Tonight is clear, although there is no moon, but there are stars, and there are beautiful women in silver clothes like snow.The shadow of the mountain always swaying in the distance, and the fireflies nearby are intertwined into a harmonious background.

Ye Ziqi was a little sleepy, but he didn't close his eyes for a long time. He felt that everything at this time was like a just-right dream floating on the water. People were half asleep and half awake, and the scene was as real as a dream.

There is silence, but silence is also a kind of music.

The boat is full of clear dreams and crushes the galaxy. (Note [-])

There is only one oar, and he takes him to paddle far away.

Gradually, the day dawned.

He even forgot that he had ever slept.

Wildfires are burning in the countryside, and they are lit up inch by inch in the morning light, completely new.Mountains and rivers have never been so warm and charming.

The howling of wolves faintly came from the shore, which made people feel nostalgic on this morning when the sun was shining.

There are other sounds of wild beasts, which are actually faint, but it makes people feel noisy.After all, it’s all gratifying and lively, which can’t help but make people think, how can such a great river and mountains make people feel uncomfortable?
The sound of Baichengshuang's oars suddenly stopped, and the raft was still floating gently with the current.

"Da da da."

A series of chasing sounds became clear.

"Da da da."

Ye Ziqi's heart throbbed, he leaned on the beam, propped up half of his body, and looked towards the shore.

Suddenly tears came.

"Da da da."

On the bank of the Jujiang River, two war horses galloped along the bank, and the man on the horses waved an arm to him.

Ye Ziqi waved his arms vigorously to greet him, and shouted the long-suppressed longing name across half the river.

In the vast wilderness, the sound of horses' hooves chasing the oars, all merged into the morning light.
