From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 126 A Xuan's Dream (Please subscribe~)

The arrow was as fast as lightning, and instantly pierced his eyebrows, throat and heart when he was just frightened.

Soon, Wu Fengdeng and his companion slipped in from the window on the lake side and chopped the fat man and the carrier pigeon into pieces before stopping completely.

This time he was completely dead.

There was no way. This was related to the whereabouts of the two of them. If there was any mistake or negligence, they would face a catastrophic disaster.

Then the next step is to look for Axuan.

"Brother Fengdeng."

At this time, Jiang Qiyu grabbed his sleeve, and a bamboo leaf floated between his fingers and touched his forehead.

"Jumang Dao Fa, a leaf blocking the eyes, can conceal our breath and general shape."

As she said, Wu Fengdeng could no longer sense Jiang Qiyu's presence once he looked away. Even if he stopped to stare, it was difficult to detect her outline.

"Be careful. Whether you find it or not, you can only search for half an hour at most. Meet at the shore."

"Uh-huh!"

It was the first time for the two to come to Xixing Island. It was not easy for them to find the hiding place of the Yin-Yang family in advance. They did not have more energy to explore the layout, so they could only split into two groups to search.

Fortunately, it was night time, and with the help of the Taoist magic of "One Leaf Blindness", Wu Fengdeng moved freely in the territory of the Thousand Witch Gang, and no one he passed by noticed it at all.

However, he searched all the wooden houses on the west side, but still could not find A Xuan. Just when he was about to give up and turn to Jiang Qi Yu, he suddenly felt like he was stepping on empty air.

It was in a wooden house filled with miscellaneous items. Unlike the solid feeling of the surrounding area, the wooden board underfoot felt very empty.

And a secret room?

Wu Fengdeng looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he slowly lifted the wooden board along the gap.

Sure enough, a dark, rotten and foul smell came from below, and Wu Fengdeng couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose.

With the help of [Eagle Eyes], Fang saw that there was a drop of about three meters below, like a tunnel.

Without any hesitation, he jumped down on the wooden board. The entrance of the cave was covered instantly. Except for some new mud, it was no different from before.

In the tunnel, Wu Fengdeng walked forward while looking around carefully.

The interior of the corridor looks very simple, with earth walls mixed with stones, without any traces of artificial decoration. There is only a pit every ten meters, which looks like a candlestick.

Moreover, there were no obvious signs of dragging or footsteps on the ground, so Axuan should not have been caught here.

Wu Fengdeng walked for a while, frowned, and hesitated between leaving and continuing to explore. After all, his main goal now was to rescue A Xuan, and the rest was not important.

After thinking about it, he simply turned around.

Dong~ Dong Dong~
Perhaps it was the slight breeze caused by turning around, and suddenly a dull collision sound was heard above the head, and then it gradually became smaller and smaller until it stopped.

Wu Fengdeng subconsciously called out Yanri, looked up, and saw sixteen water tank-sized urns hanging above him.

"This is……"

He did not sense any danger, but just felt a sense of inexplicable eeriness. Then he looked around and stepped on the nearest candlestick, using it to block the sun to steady his body, keeping his sight parallel to the urns.

The jars are made of ordinary ceramic, the only special thing is that they are all carved with the same relief.

The most eye-catching thing is the ferocious giant sitting cross-legged, with big eyes, thick lips, long horns and fangs, six arms, and looking down fiercely.

Below was a large group of people kneeling on the ground praying. Between them were two urns, and some people were dancing nearby.

"It looks like... some kind of sacrificial ritual?"

Wu Fengdeng's face looked solemn, and then an idea suddenly came to his mind!
Could it be the bone washing sacrifice here? !
"I think so. The ferocious and terrifying appearance of this giant is quite suitable for Chi You."

"But didn't Xuan's family say that the altar of the bones of the Bone Man and Bone Woman would be placed in the Chiyou Temple? Why are they all here?"

"Even if the rumor that the Qianwu Gang was instructed by Chi You is true, they shouldn't put the altar of the divine bones in such a dark place, right?"

Wu Fengdeng was suspicious, and then he took out an arrow from behind and probed into the altar, but felt nothing.

empty? !
Wu Fengdeng was slightly stunned.

"The bone washing sacrifice is to seal the sacred bones in the altar, waiting for Chi You to take them. Logically, they should not disappear, unless Chi You is really still alive!"

"That's impossible. This kind of superstition is only meant to fool the common people. So, is it the Thousand Witches Gang that secretly stole the altar and took away the divine bones?"

"No wonder the Sixth Witch Master was so nervous when he saw A Xuan. It seems that the Thousand Witches Gang has concealed a lot of things. They probably took this divine bone for the purpose of cultivation."

"They have been using the identities of Chiyou's subordinates to deceive the people and steal the divine bones for how many years? A thousand years? And no one has discovered it yet."

"That's right. The people here are crazy about legends. Even if they find that the altar of divine bones is missing from the Chiyou Temple, they can still say that Chiyou came to the world and took it away. There is simply no loophole."

Wu Fengdeng gradually understood, and then he felt a chill on his back, muttering: "This bone man and bone girl are just consumables for others to practice. It seems that we can't let Xuan continue to be this bone girl."

Then he cleared all traces of himself in the tunnel, returned to the ground, and dived to the shore along the wooden bridge.

Fortunately, Jiang Qiyu had found Axuan and brought her out successfully. She was unharmed and just unconscious.

"Brother Fengdeng, she is fine, she was just knocked unconscious."

"Well, let's talk somewhere else."

Wu Fengdeng looked back at the quiet Xixing Island, breathed a sigh of relief, and then took Jiang Qiyu and the other man and ran for hundreds of miles before stopping in a valley outside Lingxi Village.

"Xiao Guoguo, Sister Jiang, where are we?"

At this time, A Xuan finally woke up and quickly shrank into Jiang Qiyu's arms in fear.

"It's okay, it's okay. We're almost at your house."

Wu Fengdeng stood aside and pondered for a moment, then squatted down, looked into Axuan's eyes and said, "Miss Axuan, I don't have much time, so I'll make it short."

Then, he briefly recounted what he had seen and guessed in the tunnel, looked at Ah Xuan's shocked and dumbfounded expression, and finally said seriously: "Now I can give you two choices."

"First, leave this place. I came here just to look for medicine, and I have no intention of getting involved in any of your feuds, so I don't care what the Thousand Witches Gang does, and I won't care."

"But now you are our friend, and I don't want to see you jump into the fire pit, so as long as you nod, I will immediately find a boat to send you to the other side. When I get the red pearl grass, I can settle you in Qin State."

"Second, you go home now and follow some bullshit custom here to be sacrificed as a bone girl."

Wu Fengdeng said indifferently, and Jiang Qiyu beside him said gently: "Axuan, don't you want to see the outside world? I can take you anywhere to see it."

Ah Xuan looked at the two of them quietly for a full ten breaths, then burst out laughing, holding her stomach and laughing: "Ouch, my stomach is sore."

"Xiao Guoguo, you are really good at telling stories. Apuyu is watching us all the time. How dare the Thousand Witches Gang steal the God's Bone Altar!"

"Okay, okay, I know you can't bear to see me being sacrificed, so you made up a story to get me to leave."

Ah Xuan stood up with a smile, brushed the dust off her body, and looked at the two people who were frowning, her smile became even sweeter.

"Miss Xuan, you..."

"Xiao Guoguo, stop talking. And Sister Jiang, thank you. Besides my mom, you are the only two people who don't want me to be sacrificed. I like you very much and want to go out with you."

"But, I am a bone girl after all. I will die on the day my divine bones are formed. I am born to serve Apuyu, otherwise our Lingxi Village will be in trouble!"

"I've been very satisfied after spending a few days with you two friends. It's time for me to go home."

She looked at the candlelit Lingxi Village not far away, and mist gradually appeared in her large eyes. She lowered her head and smiled, "See you later!"

Seeing that she was about to leave, Jiang Qiyu had a sad face and tried to hold her back reluctantly, but she dodged him and ran into the darkness, shaking the silver crown and the broken light.

"Brother Fengdeng, can we, can we..."

Jiang Qiyu looked at Wu Fengdeng with tears in her eyes. Wu Fengdeng clenched his fists slightly and finally sighed deeply: "Qiyu, we are always outsiders."

"Ah Xuan has a difficult secret and can't leave. Let's not even think about changing the mindset here. This is extremely troublesome."

There is nothing in the world more difficult than changing people's ideas. Wu Fengdeng can't do it, nor does he want to do it.

"Not bad, the young man is sensible."

A female voice suddenly sounded beside him, and Wu Fengdeng turned around instantly.

I saw a figure in a wide robe slowly landing in the distance.

It was the Great Witch Master Apsin. Looking at his androgynous appearance, Wu Fengdeng also figured out how to use those divine bones, and immediately grasped the domineering spear intent and protected Jiang Qiyu behind him.

As the scarlet spear came out, Apsin looked slightly startled, and then continued in a voice that was half male and half female: "Don't be nervous, since you don't plan to disrupt the bone washing sacrifice, I won't kill you!"

"You are……"

"Master of the Thousand Witches Gang, you can call me Apsin."

"Were you following me just now?"

"Yes."

Wu Fengdeng's face was gloomy, and the blood in his body was surging rapidly.

Apsin looked calm and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it long ago."

"Wu Fengdeng, Jiang Qiyu, one is a Qin King, the other is a Taoist genius, how dare I offend you!"

The corners of his mouth curved dangerously, and he continued, "Mr. Wu, as long as you don't tell anyone about the bone-washing sacrifice, we in the Thousand Witches Gang will definitely not cause you any trouble. You can do whatever you want. If you need help, I'm happy to help."

"As for the conflict between you and the Yin-Yang family, I will not interfere, let alone tell anyone about your whereabouts. We will not interfere with each other."

"how?"

Wu Fengdeng nodded with a frosty face: "Okay."

"Brother Fengdeng..."

"Can we go?"

"Whatever you want!"

Wu Fengdeng immediately pulled Jiang Qiyu onto the horse and left immediately.

Looking at the two people who quickly disappeared into the night, the sneer on Apsin's face became even thicker and heavier.

On horseback, Jiang Qiyu looked at Wu Fengdeng, who had an indifferent expression, and finally couldn't help asking, "Brother Fengdeng, are we really going to watch Xuan being sacrificed? Perhaps we can find a way to expose the evil deeds of the Thousand Witch Gang."

"any solution?"

"……I……"

Wu Fengdeng said coldly: "The Yin-Yang family is watching us now. The great witch master just now is also in the Qi Concealment Realm. He can start a fight as soon as he says so."

"If we really want to expose them, we are not only facing these two enemies, but also tens of millions of ordinary people. We are just outsiders. As long as the Thousand Witches Gang can easily turn the tables and make up a crime for us, we will be completely finished."

"And Xuan doesn't want to leave either. With so many unfavorable conditions, why should we get into trouble? Don't forget, our only goal is the Crimson Pearl Yao Grass."

His words were very rational and pointed, which made Jiang Qiyu look very sad. He had to suppress his reluctance to leave A Xuan and hugged Wu Fengdeng's waist tightly...

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the eve of the last day of August.

Wu Fengdeng and Jiang Qiyu sat together under the sacred tree, looking towards the east, quietly waiting for dawn.

The day of bone washing and sacrifice is approaching. Tonight, there are faint noises coming from the area around Qiling Mountain, and many people are busy preparing for something.

Jiang Qiyu couldn't bear to listen and buried her little face deeper into his chest.

roar~
Suddenly, a familiar growl sounded.

Wu Fengdeng subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a round figure struggling to climb to the top of the mountain.

Axuan's iron-eating beast!
"Ah ball!"

Jiang Qiyu exclaimed and rushed forward.

puff~
But the iron-eating beast was lying on the ground very tiredly. On its back was Axuan, who was wearing a brand new gold and blue outfit and a little makeup. She was curled up and groaning in pain.

"Ah Xuan! Ah Xuan!"

Jiang Qiyu nervously took it and held it in her arms. Wu Fengdeng walked up to her and looked at her in surprise. In the dark night, he could clearly see the golden light flashing on her body and the vague outline of her skeleton.

Every time the divine bone flashed, Ah Xuan would cry out in pain, tears welling up in her eyes.

Hoho~
The iron-eating beast crawled beside her, gently licked the back of her hand, and then looked at Wu Fengdeng with an almost pleading look.

He understood instantly.

"The divine bone implanted in Axuan's body is about to grow. Perhaps it is absorbing her life force for nourishment, or perhaps for some other reason. Axuan will be in great pain because of this."

"This panda probably thought we could cure her, so it brought her out. It probably ran all the way here."

Wu Fengdeng spoke calmly, and Jiang Qiyu listened with great heartbreak. She then stretched out her small hand and pressed it on Axuan's forehead. With a flicker of green light, the pain on her face slowly eased.

“Is there any way to cure it?”

Jiang Qiyu shook her head, holding back tears and said, "I don't know how to suppress the divine bone, I can only temporarily block Ah Xuan's pain."

"I, I can feel that her vitality is disappearing very quickly. Xuan is dying... wuwuwu..."

Wu Fengdeng blinked and said nothing more. He could only sit down slowly and sigh deeply.

After an unknown amount of time, Axuan in her arms finally woke up slowly. There were a few tears on her long eyelashes. She looked at Jiang Qiyu blankly.

"Sister Jiang..."

"Ah Xuan! Do you still feel pain?"

She looked at Jiang Qiyu who was crying in front of her, then looked at Wu Fengdeng who was silent beside her, and after a long time she forced a smile.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Sister Jiang, Xiao Guoguo, it's great to see you again."

Ah Xuan's lips were trembling and her eyes were hazy. Although she was about to die, she was very satisfied now.

"That's great. I don't want to lie on that board at all. I'm so happy to have you here."

She stretched out her hand with all her strength and gently wiped away the tears on Jiang Qiyu's face.

"Sister Jiang, don't cry. I will soon turn into Ding Ding Cat and fly far away. I can finally go out and play. Isn't this something worth being happy about?"

"Axuan, I can't bear to leave you."

"I also can't bear to leave Sister Jiang and Xiao Guoguo..."

Wu Fengdeng turned his head away in silence, looking at the dawn gradually rising in the east, tears welling up in his eyes for the first time in many days.

"Baby, do you cry too?"

Nüba tried hard to hold Wu Fengdeng's eyes open and said fiercely, "Are you heartbroken? I told you that you would live a life worse than death. This is just the beginning."

"Cry, cry for the last time, soon you won't be able to cry anymore..."

Wu Fengdeng gritted his teeth and turned his head away to ignore her. Ah Xuan was already exhausted and was lying in Jiang Qiyu's arms, mumbling incoherently.

“…We’re leaving…”

"Sister Jiang... Xiao Guoguo... It hurts so much..."

"it hurts……"

When the sound in his arms was completely silent, the tears that Jiang Qiyu had been holding back finally burst out, and her shoulders shook violently.

Suddenly, strands of golden light fell silently, gradually spreading into green, purple, blue, and white, mixing together and draped under the spiritual tree.

Wu Fengdeng looked up and saw a large patch of rosy light overflowing from the huge crown of the sacred tree. It was hazy, dreamy and beautiful. For a moment he felt as if he was in fairyland.

It turns out the rumors were true.

"Ah Xuan?!"

The thin and graceful figure was bathed in the rosy glow, and gradually disappeared, turning into golden powder and merging into the light.

In silence, Jiang Qiyu's arms felt empty. He could only see a green grass growing out of nowhere on the ground, with five green leaves spreading out and golden and white lines spreading.

A green dragonfly flew down, its transparent thin wings sparkling with fragmented light, just like a silver crown pendant, shining brightly.
