Otherworld Qin

Chapter 38 Chapter 42
This mountain range that stretches thousands of miles is divided into several sections by several countries. In Nanming, it is the Wugong Mountain Range where Tiegong Mountain is located, and when it reaches the boundary between Jingman and Sanmiao, it is called the Necromancer Mountain Range, just because people here do not know that they will die every year. No matter how many innocent people there are, there may be tens of thousands of innocent souls accumulated over time.

Shengxuan ran all the way into the Undead Mountain, but he didn't know much about it. He was forced to choose this remote place for various reasons. After a few days, the people he met along the way gradually became rare. Today, even a hunter or There are no woodcutters, and he didn't care, it's just that it is deep in the hinterland of the mountain, and it is inaccessible due to the remoteness.

Over the past few days, he found that the little princess seemed to be a different person, as if she was more familiar with the mountains than he was. What was even more strange was that she had tried to catch up with him a few times, but she had no intention of making a move. He didn't care about it either, he just thought that the little princess was waiting for an opportunity because she didn't have any helpers.

Originally, when the little princess had no helpers and no Gu people to follow, he should have the power to fight, and even kill her with tricks, but the fear of the soul Gu in his soul made him finally choose to escape. , But after a few days, whenever he rests, the little princess will rest, and when he advances, the little princess will follow closely.

On this day, I met an obese rabbit on the road. He couldn’t run fast in the snow and jumped awkwardly. He went up and grabbed the rabbit. For several days, he always had dry food and water, which already made his stomach and intestines sick. Without a trace of oil or water, looking at the plump rabbit in his hand, he couldn't help drooling.

Since the little princess didn't intend to do anything, he simply found a place leeward, picked up some dead branches, lit a fire, and roasted the rabbit on the fire. After a while, the smell of rabbit meat came out, and Sheng Xuan broke it off. A hind leg full of gravy, eating sweetly, perhaps attracted by the smell of meat, the little princess also walked over slowly, stopped not far away and looked at him quietly, which immediately raised his vigilance, He stretched out his hand and tore off another piece of rabbit meat, then kicked the rest of the firewood away, and then flew into the deep forest.

Shengxuan hid in the dense forest and watched the little princess quietly, only to find that she was walking slowly to the rabbit meat kicked into the snow by him. Until the piece of meat turned into a pile of bare bones, the little princess went to the side and grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into her mouth, then took a handful of snow and wiped her face. Xuan found that the little princess's face was so haggard, and the helpless eyes made people feel distressed. After all, she was only a nine-year-old child. She used to live the life of a princess, but now she was wandering alone in the wilderness. She was obviously not as lucky as Sheng Xuan , at least he still brought a lot of dry food and drinking water, and the little princess may only be able to dig some wild vegetables in the snow these days to survive.

Suddenly there was a trace of pity in my heart, but I was immediately denied by myself, and I scolded fiercely in my heart, "Chengxuan, Shengxuan, you are really worthless. You must know that she is a terrifying witch, and she almost even missed it a few times." Taking your own life, you will feel pity for her, she should starve to death." Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and continued walking in the direction of Lone Bamboo.

Since then, the distance between the two has been kept at a distance of one eye, and Sheng Xuan has also begun to pay attention to the actions of the little princess. There are many wild animals in the mountains, so he will hunt some wild animals to satisfy his hunger from time to time. He lived with Mr. Dongfang in the mountains when he was three years old. He started an independent life when he was young, and learned to cook with a fire when he was older, so it was not difficult for him at all, and he always roasted wild game very tenderly.

And the little princess also gradually learned to hunt, but she often burned the food, but she didn't care about it, she just swallowed it like that, and then quenched her thirst with snow water.

After walking in the forest for a few days, now he has entered the depths of the Dead Spirit Mountain, but the beasts are gradually becoming rarer, and finally there is no trace of a wild beast anymore, so Chengxuan has no choice but to return to the state of dry food and cold water. Little princess, just occasionally pick up some pine nuts to satisfy her hunger.

Looking at the dry food roasting on the fire, a trace of pity suddenly surged in Sheng Xuan's heart. The little princess's cloak had been scratched in several places by the branches, and she felt a little lonely in the cold wind. Not as glorious as before, after scolding himself severely, he opened his mouth and took a bite of the dry food, but there was no trace of taste in his mouth, finally heaved a long sigh and smiled bitterly, "It seems I still can’t be a bad guy.” After that, he broke apart the dry food, put a branch on the half that hadn’t been bitten, stuck it in the snow, took out a water bag and put it beside him, and retreated far away.

Leaning on the stone, watching quietly, it took a long time for the little princess to come over, looked at the half piece of dry food and then at him, but she didn't intend to take it, Shengxuan called out in a lukewarm way, " If you still want to kill me, fill your stomach first, and rest assured that I won't poison the food." Then he gnawed on the dry food to himself.

The little princess finally reached out to take the dry food, swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, then opened the water bag and drank it happily for a while, then put the water bag into the ring, only then did Shengxuan realize that she also had a ring, In the past, he once wondered where the little princess's Jade Cauldron was placed?It won't be hugged in the cloak all the time, now I finally know the answer.

In fact, Shengxuan didn't have much drinking water, but he accidentally left a bag of water for the little princess, and soon he began to regret it, because he could only rely on snow water to quench his thirst, but it didn't bother him, During the rest of the day, he found a big stone nearby, and then dug it into the shape of a pot, filled it with white snow, set it on the fire and burned it slowly, and waited until the snow water boiled and cooled down slowly. , He filled the water into several water bags, and then put the stone pot into the ring, so that he didn't have to chew the cold snow to quench his thirst in the future.

This trick was obviously learned by the little princess. Although she is not as good at martial arts as Shengxuan, it is not difficult to use her mind to control a stone to make a hole in another big rock.

In this way, the two began to maintain this weird relationship, walking slowly in the forest, Shengxuan is still troubled by his internal fighting spirit, because he still hasn't recovered, I don't know why since the last time the fighting spirit dissipated After the situation, he has been tossing and condensing and dissipating recently. Although he feels that the little princess has gradually lost her killing intent towards him, he still dare not stop and practice hard. In case the little princess suddenly makes a move during the practice , I'm afraid I'm really in danger.

The sky was getting dark and gloomy, suddenly a gust of cold wind blew through, and a blizzard immediately fell, and the feather-like snowflakes fluttered down, instantly turning the whole world into a grayish white color, the sky was as cloudy as a night In general, coupled with the sudden heavy snowfall, it is obviously not suitable for traveling anymore, Sheng Xuan hurriedly looked around for a place to avoid the wind and snow, but where is there to hide in this mountain?I had no choice but to keep going despite the wind and snow for the time being, and walked a few miles with difficulty, and came to the foot of a big mountain. I gathered my eyes and looked around, and suddenly found a dark hole at the bottom of the mountain. The entrance of the cave is extremely huge. When you walk into it, you can see that it is several tens of feet wide. Poisonous insects were infested, and the hole was so deep that he was not interested in going inside to investigate. He thought that as long as he could avoid the wind and snow at the entrance of the cave, even if there were poisonous insects that didn't go too deep, he probably wouldn't disturb them. After a little thought, he rushed again. Entering the wind and snow, he waved Ghost Howl and cut off a few tree trunks and dragged them into the hole.

Just now, a bonfire was lit with pine branches near the stone wall on one side, and the little princess had already walked in, but she just found a place to sit down near the entrance of the cave and did not get close. , Such a quantity obviously cannot be lit overnight, so she picked up a pile and walked to the other side of the cave to light a fire, and then slowly walked back to her own fire. The little princess watched his movements quietly, waiting for him to go back. After a long time, I slowly sat down near the fire.

The two bonfires were gradually burning, slowly warming the huge cave. When the two of them were sitting there quietly waiting for the snow to stop, at this time, Sheng Xuan had already run out of dry food. Unable to find prey, it seems that they can only starve.

Just when he was bored, he suddenly felt a slight rustling sound coming from around him, as if something was approaching, he jumped up and looked back, only to see dense crowds of scorpions appearing at some point, those black ones with bright red tail stings Each of the scorpions was more than a foot long, and they were eager to pounce on them. Cheng Xuan was furious. He didn't expect that his kind-hearted little princess would secretly kill him at this time, releasing Gu worms to attack him.

But when he looked at the little princess again, he was also surrounded by a group of scorpions. Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood her just now, but where did so many scorpions come from?At this time, looking carefully with the light of the fire, I found that there are small holes under the stone wall in the cave, and scorpions are crawling out of them. It turns out that this is a scorpion cave.

Thousands of scorpions densely surrounded the two of them respectively, and the scorpions on this side finally couldn't hold back, and rushed towards Shengxuan. Quickly dodged, while slashing the approaching scorpions with a strong wind while waving the ghost howl, suddenly some scorpions jumped up a few feet and rushed towards him, he hurriedly dialed them out with the ghost howl, and some of them fell into the fire There was a crackling sound in the pile, and then a stench was smelled, and the little princess was much more relaxed at this moment, the scorpions seemed not interested in her, they just surrounded her and did not attack.

A scorpion fell into the fire as if it had warned the attacking scorpions. The scorpions retreated gradually, but still refused to disperse. Seeing that they were afraid of fire, Cheng Xuan quickly threw all the remaining firewood into the fire to ignite. Then he used fire to form a circle around his body, and the scorpion didn't dare to attack anymore, so he took a little breath.

At this moment, there was a commotion behind the scorpion, accompanied by a huge hissing sound, and the scorpion flashed to the sides following the sound, and saw a few huge lizards staggering towards the entrance of the cave.

These lizards are probably four to five feet long, and the spikes on the black and green skin are shining coldly. The sharp teeth in the bloody mouth are like sharp knives, and the half-foot-long tongue is swallowing back and forth. The smelly mucus came out every time, suddenly several lizards raised their heads at the same time and roared, then suddenly lowered their heads and pointed at the fire to spit out a stream of mucus. This attack, but the fire was extinguished by the mucus, and the cave was suddenly pitch black. When the scorpions rushed over frantically when the fire was extinguished, he had no choice but to quickly rush towards the entrance of the cave.

At this moment, several giant lizards suddenly sprayed poisonous mist from their mouths, sealing the entire entrance of the cave, obviously trying to prevent him from going out. This immediately surprised him, he did not expect these monsters to be intelligent.

In desperation, he had no choice but to change his dragon teeth and struggled to resist the tide of scorpions rushing into the cave. He peeked at the little princess, but saw that she was glowing with a light green light, and those scorpions would immediately rush into the cave when they touched the light. It became quiet immediately, and the monitor lizard seemed to be full of fear of the green light and did not attack her at all.

Sheng Xuan smiled wryly, he didn't expect this little princess to have such abilities, even the poisonous insects are afraid of her, don't you know that this is the strength of the wizards, they use this weird technique to tame the poisonous insects for them to drive.

With his childhood practice, Sheng Xuan's eyesight is still barely able to distinguish the surrounding situation in this dark cave, and the bright red tail stings of those black scorpions are slightly glowing, and there are already tens of thousands of scorpions rushing towards him at this time, He was besieged in circles, and now the long spear could no longer stop so many scorpions from attacking at the same time, he was afraid that a single mistake would stung the scorpion, so he hurriedly jumped up high, and then leapt again on the cave wall He lifted the dragon tooth in his hand and tried hard, and with a ding sound, the dragon tooth penetrated deeply into the roof of the cave, and the sawtooth on it firmly bit the rock, so Sheng Xuan grabbed the gun shaft and hung himself in the air.

Looking down at this time, I saw a red light surging, those black scorpions were constantly commotion below because they could not jump to this height, and their ability to climb walls was obviously not as strong as their close relative spiders, some tried to climb up the cave wall As soon as the scorpions climbed to the top of the cave, they all fell down one after another.

A few monitor lizards also walked over shaking, spraying mucus from their mouths, but the cave roof here is ten feet away from the ground, and the mucus started to fall before reaching Shengxuan, but the group of scorpions were caught by seedlings and were immediately killed. The mucus touched it, and turned into an ice scorpion in a blink of an eye. At this moment, Chengxuan knew that the giant lizard had a kind of water magic, similar to the effect of freezing. Although it was not powerful, it might not feel good to be sprayed by it.

The giant lizard spewed poisonous mist angrily, and Shengxuan also hurriedly threw a fireball technique. Although the fireball with a diameter of several feet could not kill the giant lizard, several fireballs were able to eliminate the poisonous mist attack very well, and the fireball hit the ground After splashing, a piece of poisonous scorpion was burned to ashes immediately, and then it caused a riot among the scorpions, and the giant lizard roared unceasingly.

Suddenly, the scorpions below began to quickly gather together, and then piled up layer by layer, like a pile of earth. In a blink of an eye, they were already several feet high, and slowly approached the top of the cave. He hastily cast fireballs repeatedly, but the monitor lizards spurted mucus at the same time, freezing the scorpion pile into ice, and the scorpion next to it was driven by the monitor lizards and continued to rush up without fear of death.

In a blink of an eye, it was already several feet high, and Sheng Xuan couldn't help feeling anxious. The fireball technique was not very effective under the slime of those monitor lizards, so it would not take long for it to grow to the top of the cave. He hurriedly performed a rockfall technique, but the boulder fell on the ice He just knocked down a layer but didn't knock it down. He hurriedly threw a star stone Yuluo but just killed some black scorpions that had just climbed up. Then he started the same magic experiment, but no matter whether it was earth magic or fire magic, Even magic can't resist the footsteps of the black scorpion.

It seemed that the only option was to jump down and break through desperately. At this moment, there was another strange sound in the cave, a buzzing sound mixed with a crackling sound, which made him dizzy for a while, and the scorpions under his feet were obviously interested in this sound. It was so frightening that even the monitor lizards became vigilant.

Suddenly a gust of wind gushed out from the top of the cave, followed by a loud buzzing sound, as if something flew past him, and the crackling sound was even louder, which made the scorpions below start to rush to the small hole next to them in a panic. Go, some slow-running scorpions have already trembled and lost the ability to move. I saw a flash of fluorescent light and those scorpions disappeared on the ground.

Only then did Shengxuan realize that it turned out to be a super-large poisonous moth, half a foot long, with huge wings blowing gusts of wind in the hole, and the scales on their bodies shone with orchid fluorescence. An oversized giant eye was watching the movement of the scorpion below, and the forelegs couldn't stop moving, and there was a crackling sound immediately.

Every time the sound sounds, several scorpions will suffer, and then a group of poisonous moths will rush down and take them into the air to enjoy slowly. It seems that this sound makes the scorpions lose their ability to move. Surprised, could these big moths attack with their souls?
At this time, he was surrounded by a group of poisonous moths. They kept circling around him, making him very nervous. Fortunately, they were all focused on the scorpion below, ignoring his existence, and swooped down on a poisonous moth. The moment he grabbed a scorpion, the monitor lizard's mucus sprayed over, immediately turning the moth into a lump of ice, completely losing the ability to fly. The lizard rushed over and tore the poisonous moth into pieces and swallowed it.

Sheng Xuan was hanging on the gun and looked at the excitement below happily. At this time, the poisonous moth and the giant lizard had already fought together, but their ultimate target was still the scorpion. It seems that although these animals have some wisdom, they are still limited.

Gradually, the scorpions completely retreated into the small hole under the stone wall. These poisonous moths were obviously unwilling to retreat like this. They began to attack the giant lizard frantically, because they did not have sharp weapons to pierce the thick skin of the giant lizard. So they chose to dive at high speed and hit the monitor lizard's head with their bodies, and at the same time they moved their forelimbs louder. Shengxuan suddenly felt a severe dizziness in his mind, coupled with the stench in the cave, almost made him spit it out , he hastily pulled out the dragon tooth forcefully, and dodged to the entrance of the cave.

At this time, those poisonous moths were besieging the monitor lizards frantically, and several monitor lizards were about to lose their hold, but the poisonous moths also paid a painful price. Some unlucky poisonous moths just hit the spikes on the monitor lizards, and lost their lives instantly , and some of them smashed themselves into a puddle of flesh on the top of the monitor lizard because they hit too squarely, but the monitor lizard was already covered in scars from this crazy attack, and they might die in a while.

The monitor lizard let out a pitiful roar, at this moment the scorpions that were running away suddenly came out one after another, then raised their tail spines and ran towards the monitor lizard, one after another quickly covered the monitor lizard’s body , as if putting on a poisonous scorpion armor on the monitor lizard, even if the poisonous moth's mental attack can paralyze them, but they always maintain this kind of tail thorn upward state, so that the poisonous moth's impact will hit their body first Spikes, then their bodies, and finally monitor lizards.

The fierce battle lasted for less than half an hour before it subsided gradually. At this time, the ground was already in a mess, and there were corpses of scorpions and poisonous moths everywhere, but these were obviously insignificant to their huge group, but there was a monitor lizard in this battle. When it died, several monitor lizards surrounded it, growled at its corpse, and slowly crawled into the cave after a long time.

It turns out that the three creatures in this cave have such a strange relationship. There are many scorpions, but they are the food of poisonous moths. In this way, they always maintain a delicate balance, and the group of either party will not be too large.

After this battle, the scorpions obviously lost interest in Shengxuan, they quickly cleaned the battlefield, dragged almost all the poisonous moths and most of the corpses of their companions back to the cave, but the monitor lizard did not touch it , Shengxuan got a branch to light the bonfire again, and then looked at the hole, it was full of all kinds of mucus and filled with a stench.

He wanted to turn around and leave, but the wind and snow outside were more violent, and the severe cold and stench were obviously better for this smell, besides, there was a faint fragrance from the burning pine branches that could just dilute the stench, when he just lit the fire, he suddenly saw the little princess Slowly walking in from the cave, it turned out that the monitor lizard had just attacked Shengxuan, and she quietly came to a depression near the entrance of the cave, where she could not only avoid the wind and snow, but also see the battle inside the cave, and wait until the battle was over She then came back.

Shengxuan couldn't help feeling very uncomfortable when he saw it, acting as if he was a clown, and the only audience was his nemesis, the little princess. Seeing her walk in, he didn't want to pay attention to her, but he still threw it over angrily. A few branches.

The two sat there quietly, Chengxuan couldn't help looking around boredly, suddenly the giant lizard aroused his interest, and saw that the blood on the wound had already drained, revealing the bright red flesh inside, what he was really interested in It's monitor lizard meat, how does it taste?

Finally, the temptation of eating meat was greater than the fear. He stepped forward and waved Gui Xiao to cut off a large piece of meat, and then roasted it slowly on the fire. Go over and grab a piece of meat to bring back to the fire.

Shengxuan rolled his eyes angrily, and then turned his own steak. After the meat was roasted, he carefully moved up to him and smelled it. He felt that the monitor lizard meat was unusually fragrant, and carefully Tearing off a piece and putting it in his mouth, it felt so fresh and tender. He had never eaten such delicious meat before, so he couldn't help but open his mouth and start chewing.

The little princess was obviously more careful than him. She took out the jade cauldron and put the monitor lizard meat close to the cauldron. After a while, she took out some powder from the ring and sprinkled it on the meat, and then slowly roasted and ate it.

After eating a full stomach, he immediately felt much warmer, and even the cold wind and snow outside was not as annoying as before. Just as Cheng Xuan was half lying there admiring the snow scene, he suddenly felt extremely itchy all over. He hurried to the fire, only Seeing that his hands were covered with scarlet blood spots, he opened his sleeves to see that there were also red spots all over his arms, and this kind of heart-wrenching itching made him scratch hard, the more he scratched, the more itchy it became. It was so powerful that he wished he could grab all his flesh and blood.

The little princess smiled miserably at the side, and then summoned the soul gu from the jade cauldron. Sheng Xuan's heart suddenly went cold, and he couldn't help but cursed himself, "Cheng Xuan, Sheng Xuan, I asked you to pretend to be a good person, and give them food. People water, now good people want to take this opportunity to deal with you, you deserve it."

But the little princess didn't let the soul gu attack her, but gently mobilized the soul gu to inhale fiercely at the cave, and suddenly some gray light spots slowly gathered, and then the soul gu chewed it into her mouth.

Shengxuan felt that it would be better to let himself be eaten by this soul gu, than now, the little princess no longer restrained the soul gu, but let it devour in the hole as much as he wanted, while he sat beside the jade cauldron and swallowed all kinds of meat. The powder was put into the cauldron, and then the whole jade cauldron lit up when the thought power was activated. After a long time, a small pill appeared in the hands of the little princess. Beside Xuan.

Shengxuan picked up the pill and hesitated for a long time, "Could it be a poison? If I eat it, I will bleed to death from my orifices immediately?" But the itching made him make up his mind, even if he knew it was poison, he would He swallowed it without hesitation, closed his eyes, threw the pill into his mouth and chewed it randomly for a few times. He felt extremely bitter and slightly spicy. He couldn't help thinking that it must be a pill, but instead of the pain and suffering, It would be better to die happily, thinking of this cruelty, I swallowed it with a grunt.

He lay there quietly waiting to die, but after a long time, he suddenly felt that the itchy feeling gradually disappeared, and he had no symptoms of poisoning at all. Could it be that what the little princess gave was really the antidote?He began to hesitate.

Nearly an hour later, the itchy feeling finally completely disappeared. By the light of the fire, he saw that all the red spots on his body had disappeared. If it wasn't for the scratch marks on his skin, he might not remember the experience just now. What the little princess gave was indeed an antidote, he couldn't help feeling grateful, his lips moved with difficulty, and he let out a mosquito-like voice, "Thank you!"

The little princess didn't seem to hear, but closed her eyes to manipulate the soul gu, and finally devoured the last gray dot, the soul gu returned to her side with satisfaction, and looked again at this time, and saw that the five sense organs on the soul gu had gradually revealed When it came out, it no longer looked like it had only eyes and mouth at the beginning, it seemed that it was growing rapidly.

Seeing the little princess practicing kung fu, Shengxuan also took this opportunity to meditate there, and slowly adjusted his often scattered internal strength and fighting spirit. This was the first time they stayed together in one place for such a long time, maybe this would be a good one. Turn around.
