From Xiaoao to travel around the world

Chapter 232 The Underground Ghost Cave
After returning from the town, Nie Xiaoqian saw that the building was brightly lit, obviously Yang Qing was still refining weapons.

She is restless by nature and can't stand the dullness, but she doesn't want to be disturbed, so she quietly went back to the cave under the well, guarding the ghost Ganoderma lucidum to practice.

The night before, she met Kongtao by chance, and fate forced her to pass on the cultivation method, and the Beimingzhu also refined it into a magic weapon suitable for her.

At the beginning, she worked hard because of the freshness, but after one month, she just entered the realm of Taoism, and she became lazy.

I often go to the town to look for empty peaches.

But after a few times, I don't know if she got annoyed by her endless "consultations", and Kong Tao never showed up again.

Nie Xiaoqian, who had visited Yuncang Country all over, ran out of new things to see, so she stopped going.

She turned her attention to her ghost soldier.

Although the existing ghost soldiers have a human form, they are still full of cloudy spirits without consciousness, and even their faces are blurred, so they can only follow her instructions.

It's hard to avoid getting bored after watching it for a long time.

So she spent a lot of time re-sacrificing all the ghost soldiers, and reshaped each ghost soldier according to her own preferences, all of them looked like graceful girls.

Only appearance is much worse than her.

It has been nearly two months since the work was done, and Yang Qing is still concentrating on making weapons every day, while she prepares meals on time without a single delay.

That night she packed everything up, looked at the lights of the bamboo building, and went out to play again.

I walked around the town and couldn't find Kongtao. When I walked back, I suddenly found someone in the farmland raising a hoe and turning the soil.

"Uncle, are you still working in the field so late?"

The man turned his head when he heard the words, revealing a ghostly, expressionless stiff face.

Nie Xiaoqian sensed Yin energy from a long distance, and knew that there was no stranger in front of her, so she released more than twenty ghost soldiers and said with a smile: "Why don't you go back with me, I will let the sisters play with you?"

I don't know if the ghost understood her provocation and teasing, and suddenly raised a hoe with Yin Qi manifested in the uninhabited field and hit it.

On the way he rushed, his eyes were tearing apart, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets; his mouth was opened wide, as if to let out a silent roar.

Seeing this, Nie Xiaoqian sneered, imitating Yang Qing's tone and said: "Little Yinhun is also wantonly in front of me!"

After speaking, he waved his fingers to make his ghost soldiers jump forward and wrap the ghost, and then a Beiming bead burst out of the air, captured it, and condensed it into a ball of pure Yin Qi in a blink of an eye.

"In Yuncang Kingdom, no ghost can disobey me, Nie Xiaoqian!"

Taking back the Bei Mingzhu proudly, she glanced at the neat array of ghost soldiers behind her, feeling that the scale was still too small.

Looking at the depths of the jungle in the distance, he took a group of ghost soldiers and whizzed away with a turn of his mind.

In Yuncang Country, empty peaches sit in the town, and humans and monsters live together. It is not uncommon for ghosts to harm people, but there have been only a handful of them over the years.

The ghosts that Yang Qing brought back last time have all been used up, and if he wants to expand the scale of ghost soldiers, he has to go to the jungle to catch them.

She herself is a body of ghosts, and she is particularly sensitive to Yin Qi.

After walking around the forest with a group of ghost girls, seven or eight ghosts were caught.

These solitary ghosts have no morals and deeds, they just survived with their obsessions in life, wandering around the edge of the jungle.

Nie Xiaoqian was not greedy either, so she went back to refine ghost soldiers after she was caught, and finished her daily practice homework by the way, and then came to catch her the next day.

Every day for the next few days.

This day, before the sun rose, she came out of the kitchen after making breakfast.

Seeing a ray of sunlight in the sky, he just wanted to go back down the well, but he felt that the light shone on his body was not as hot as before.

After waiting patiently for a while, when the sun shone all over her body but only felt a little discomfort, she was finally sure that she was no longer afraid of the sun.

At least not when the sun is not too strong.

This discovery gave her new pleasure.

She used to be a human being, but she has been afraid to see the sun for a long time.

At this time, facing the rising sun, it seemed that he had regained a little pleasure in being a human being, and ran to the jungle in joy.

The foliage in the forest is luxuriant, and she is not afraid that the light will become stronger at noon if there are shades of trees to cover her.

The only inconvenience is that ghosts are hard to find during the day.

Excitedly walking more than a hundred miles in the forest, Nie Xiaoqian was bored by herself, so she tried to release a ghost soldier.

But as soon as the ghost soldier appeared, his delicate face collapsed like a melted wax figure, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly retracted it.

In desperation, he could only continue to wander around by himself.

Some animals in the forest watched her curiously, and some turned around and ran away.

There was even a huge stag with a sturdy body and sharp horns charging towards her.

She didn't move, allowing the latter to pass through her body.

Then watching it being attacked by Yin Qi, it kept shivering and fled to the distance.

"Haha."

After laughing for a while, it suddenly flashed in her mind that she was in the mountains when she was alive, and she seemed to have been frightened like this. At that time, a man protected her and kept wiping her tears.

After thinking hard for a long time, she still couldn't remember the person's appearance, so she shook her head and walked along the side with the sound of rushing water.

The voice sounded not far away, but she walked nearly ten miles before reaching the front.

She had already left the range of Yuncang Temple for more than 200 miles before, and she would be beyond the range where she can leave the long sword now.

Once leaving this range, the soul body will slowly begin to weaken.

After making up her mind to play for a while, Nie Xiaoqian walked straight through the trees in front of her and came to an open space.

Looking up, I saw a clearing surrounded by jungles surrounded by flowers and plants.

There is a low hill in the middle of the clearing.

This low hill goes straight up and down, with a drop of less than three or five feet from the ground. The clear spring above falls vertically, forming a clear pool of water at the bottom, and the fish swimming in the water are clearly visible.

At the water's edge at this time, there was a strange animal with two horns on its head, a long and narrow head, which looked like a horse but not a horse, and kept trying to catch fish.

But it seems to be full of water, every time it only hits the water surface with its hooves or horns on its head, trying to call the fat fish swimming in shallow water ashore.

No matter how many times I tried, I couldn't succeed.

"Ghost-eyed Fire Cloud Beast!"

Nie Xiaoqian cried out in surprise after only one glance.

She was afraid of this strange beast that was rescued by Yang Qing in Quyi City at first, but after seeing it a lot on the road, she got used to it.

When I arrived at Yuncangguan, I rarely saw it, but I didn't expect to meet it here again.

"Do you want to catch fish?"

The ghost-eyed Fire Cloud Beast stepped on the bluestone by the water with all four hooves, its orange-red coat looked like a raging fire under the sunlight.

Hearing the sound, it turned its head to look at the shadow in the forest, and the pupils in its eyes suddenly separated into two pairs.

Nie Xiaoqian felt apprehensive in her heart as soon as it stared at her.

She had seen the description of this strange beast in the letter given by Xi Murong.

In addition to traveling thousands of miles a day and being good at resisting fire, it has a pair of eyes that can change into four pupils, and it can also fix most ghosts and ghosts, and then breathe fire and burn them to death.

When Yinhun encounters this kind of strange beast, whether he can run or not depends entirely on his personal ability and luck.

"I... I can help you."

Fortunately, this Fire Cloud Beast was still nostalgic, and when it recognized Nie Xiaoqian, it snorted lightly, and then the pupils in its eyes slowly returned to normal.

A monster and a ghost stood in the sun and shadows and looked at each other for a moment.Taking advantage of a breeze blowing the branches and leaves, Nie Xiaoqian finally took a tentative step.

She walked into the warm afternoon sun, her weightless soul stepped over the grass on the ground to the edge of the pool, and with one hand reached out, she beat a fat fish to the opposite bank.

"Sorry~"

The Fire Cloud Beast was staring at her without blinking, but seeing the fat fish flying above its head, it was so excited that it raised its hooves and hissed, and opened its mouth to catch it.

After swallowing the fish in two or three bites, it licked the corner of its mouth and looked over.

Nie Xiaoqian reached out to pick again, and another fish flew past.

After five or six times in a row, she slowly let go of her nervous guard and continued to catch fish and feed them.

After a while, when the Fire Cloud Beast was full, she had already dared to jump into the water and splashed water on it for fun.

The Fire Cloud Beast resisted at first, and then seemed to have gotten used to it, so it dodged and neighed and quarreled with her for a while, and finally yelled as if to say hello, and flew away.

"I'll come to play with you tomorrow!"

Waving to the sky, Nie Xiaoqian hurried back to cook for Yang Qing seeing that it was getting late.

After that, for half a month, she went to the pool in the forest to catch fish for the Fire Cloud Beast every day, and the two gradually became acquainted with each other.

Sometimes Nie Xiaoqian came out late, and would take the initiative to come out to meet her.

At the end of the month, she tried to ride the Fire Cloud Beast, and the latter also cooperated very well with the flames on her body, and drove her galloping in the sky.

"Haha, what the young master didn't do, I did it first!"

Riding the Fire Cloud Beast soaring across the sky and looking at the Cangshan forest under her feet, Nie Xiaoqian was happy but felt that the sun in the sky was too glaring, so she gave a warning and took the Fire Cloud Beast to the water pool she often visited.

She didn't pay attention at first, but after coming here more times, she found that the water in this pool was cooler than other places.

Occasionally, a faint yin energy can be detected from it, which is somewhat similar to the cold spring under Yuncangguan Well.

At this time, when we reached the water's edge, we happened to bump into a splash of water, and then a wisp of cloudy air rose from the water surface, and was dispelled by the sun in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this, the Fire Cloud Beast shook its head a little anxiously and took a step back. Seeing this, Nie Xiaoqian knew that it must be remembering the experience of being imprisoned underground, and comforted:

"Don't worry, you don't have to be afraid that someone will catch you again if you stay with the young master."

After she finished speaking, she walked into the pool curiously, and after floating down for a while, she found that there were other waterways under the water, and it was from them that the Yin Qi came from.

"I thought this pool was formed by the flowing water on the mountain, but it turned out that there is another world below."

Thinking of the ghost Ganoderma lucidum in her well, she felt hot and wanted to find it along the way.

As soon as he left, he remembered the Fire Cloud Beast above, so he came out of the water and confessed: "There is a cave below, I will go in to find the treasure, you wait here and don't go far, I will go back to cook for the young master in a while."

Hearing this, the Fire Cloud Beast shook its head and neighed back a few steps, as if to dissuade her from going down.

Nie Xiaoqian smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I have a magic weapon to protect my body, and I am a soul body, so I can't drown."

Speaking of which, she released four Beiming beads, circled around herself as if showing off, and dodged into the bottom of the water.

"Sorry~"

The Fire Cloud Beast let out a long hiss on the bank, and kicked the ground with all four hooves, but Nie Xiaoqian had disappeared.

She wandered in the forest for more than a month, and felt that she had already been familiar with the forest for hundreds of miles. She was usually accompanied by the fire cloud beast, and there were no wild beasts in the forest that would hide and go.

Now guessing that there is a treasure underground, there is no reason not to explore it.

This pool is about ten feet deep, and after floating down the narrow channel at the bottom for about half an hour, I felt that the yin energy in front of me became more and more intense.

There was no light in the ground, and after walking for a while, she suddenly felt that the water area widened, and she had already traveled to an underground river.

The water in the river overflowed the channel, leaving only a narrow space above.

Occasionally, when there is a surge of water, the river will wash away the soft mud along the narrow channel above and rush to the ground pool.

Slightly distinguishing the direction, Nie Xiaoqian floated along the side full of yin.

Not long after walking, the water flow in front of the sensor suddenly stopped, and the river in the river also flowed back in an instant, and the underground river between the three of them was immediately emptied.

At the same time, several ghosts with strong yin energy also suddenly entered the induction.

After catching the ghost for a long time, she was not surprised but happy when she saw it, and immediately released a group of ghost soldiers to catch it.

Although those ghosts were much stronger than her ghost soldiers, they were quickly suppressed after being captured by the Beiming Pearl.

Nie Xiaoqian showed her face and said to herself: "As I said, within hundreds of miles of Yuncangguan, no ghost can disobey me, Nie Xiaoqian, haha."

Before she could stop laughing, she suddenly felt a tyrannical chill rising from the unknown darkness.

The cold yin energy covered her whole body, and in an instant her soul body had the illusion of being frozen.

"Who!? Come out!"

Shocked, she drove the Beiming Pearl to surround herself, and then drove the ghost soldiers to surround her. A wisp of weak divine sense kept shooting around, but she couldn't see anything.

"whee."

"Woooooooo..."

"Hehe~"

As if feeling her fear, suddenly countless chirping ghosts rang out in the darkness.

"Don't come here, my master is a ten thousand year old demon, my son likes to kill ghosts the most, whoever provokes me will die!"

While talking cruelly to the invisible unknown ghost, he retreated to the ground.

But as soon as she moved, she saw countless ghost claws covering her from all directions, wrapping her and all the ghost soldiers in the blink of an eye, and dragging them towards an unknown dark place...

The Fire Cloud Beast waited on the shore for a long time without seeing anything underwater, and when it was feeling anxious, it suddenly saw a splash of water breaking out of the water.

Immediately afterwards, a Beiming Pearl floated into the air, spinning continuously.

It stared at Bei Mingzhu for a while, but it didn't see Nie Xiaoqian coming up again, and its breath gradually burst into anger.

Immediately, the Fire Cloud Beast rushed to the side of the Beiming Pearl, opened its mouth and swallowed it.

He lowered his head to take a last look at the water surface, turned around and sprang up flames, and rushed towards the direction of Yuncangguan...

·
Since the beginning of refining the spirit weapon, Yang Qing has spent more than three months almost staying at home in the room, and will only complete one-tenth of the process.

Artifact refining is boring, but once you immerse yourself in it, you will involuntarily feel a great sense of satisfaction following the formation of magic circles.

Repeatedly, it will inevitably affect the practice.

No wonder Wang Mian once advised himself not to indulge in it.

With such thoughts in mind, Yang Qing knew that it would be difficult to devote himself wholeheartedly for a while.

Carved the last talisman into the body of the sword, and after completing a magic circle, simply retracted the sword and returned it to its sheath, and walked out the door to breathe.

It was already winter at this time, but there was no chill around Yuncang Temple.

No matter the jungle in the distance or the peach blossoms in the town, they are still lush.

Before noon, the scorching sun in the sky is not as fierce as in summer, and the breeze in the wild is also very cool and gentle.

When I walked into the kitchen, I saw that the food on the table was neatly arranged as usual, but there was no sign of Nie Xiaoqian.

She has made great progress since she had the help of the ghost ganoderma lucidum and the cold spring yin orifice in her cultivation, and she was instructed by someone outside.

Going out without a long sword can run hundreds of miles away, and the ghost soldiers have subdued a full fifty, and she herself is no longer afraid of the sun when she appears in the daytime.

Apart from coming back to practice for a while these days and wandering around all day long, I don't know what to do.

After eating, he walked out of the courtyard slowly with a cup of hot tea in his hand, and looked at three or five busy farmers in the eastern farmland, and a group of children playing in the field.

When the children saw him, they stopped and looked curiously, and then they were scolded by the adults who finished the farm work and went home.

After drinking the tea, Yang Qing casually dropped the teacup back into the house, and cast his gaze above the distant jungle, and saw a ball of orange-red flames speeding towards him.

Almost the moment he discovered the flame, the Ghost-eyed Fire Cloud Beast stopped in front of him with a strong wind.

The surrounding bamboo leaves seemed to be stirred by a hurricane, and the old pagoda trees in the courtyard were also swaying non-stop.

This strange beast has been here for more than three months, except for occasionally sending some wild boars and wolves, it rarely shows up on its own initiative.

Yang Qing was wondering why it came here suddenly, when he saw the latter shaking his head and shaking his long red mane, walking up to him and opening his mouth to spit out a Beiming bead.

Taking the Beiming Pearl in his hand, Yang Qing unexpectedly said: "This is Xiaoqian's stuff..."

"Sorry~"

Before he finished speaking, the ghost-eyed fire cloud beast raised its head and hissed, as if anxiously urging.

"When did you two get together?" Yang Qing smiled and said, "Is this little girl having trouble?"
