One thought of Acacia, one thought of perseverance

Chapter 42

Rong Chenzi went down the cliff, and quickly found the place where the power of the formation in the southeast corner was weakened, and the surrounding vegetation was lush. He tried it with his spiritual sense, and saw a vast whiteness below the mountain, as if it was covered with a thin layer of mist, so he couldn't see it clearly, but However, his heart sank - if this area is full of three-eyed snake eggs...

There were no other spell fluctuations in the formation, he approached slowly, and was about to stretch out the sticky stick, when suddenly there was a huge suction force from the bottom of the cliff.Rong Chenzi was secretly startled, he had just recovered from a serious injury, his breathing was unstable, although he was careful to guard against it, he was still defeated and fell straight down.

He was shocked in his heart, but he didn't make a sound - Qingxuan and Qingsu didn't know the situation on the cliff, if they heard him make a sound, they would definitely come, and then it might be difficult to protect themselves.As for the clam...

Her figure flashed through his mind like lightning, but he stopped there and didn't want to think about it.It was a scar of his, and he wanted to hide it somewhere he couldn't even see it.

The mussel was originally lying on the cliff, but suddenly she turned into a human form, Qingxuan and Qingsu still had an afterimage of her in front of them, and she had already fitted herself and jumped down the cliff.Rong Chenzi's falling momentum suddenly slowed down, but the suction force under the formation did not decrease at all.He only felt a warmth in his arms, and someone was stuck in front of him, it was Ka.This ancient formation was like a layer of solid ice, tightly holding him and the clam together.

The mussel was close to him, and in desperation, she used the ice freezing technique to condense the water vapor under the cliff, and cooperated with the ancient formation to resist the suction force under the cliff.Therefore, there is no gap between the two.

Her body was too delicate to bear the squeeze of the ice, so she had no choice but to hug Rong Chenzi's arms, and the two of them stuck together.

Ruanyu Wenxiang embraced her arms, and Rong Chenzi was as motionless as a mountain: "The formation is broken. If we get out at this time, the things under the cliff may get out of trouble. No matter what, we must not let it go to the surface, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous .”

He Mu obviously didn't listen to him seriously. Since he strangled his neck last time, He Mu didn't get close to him very much. At this time, her whole face was wrinkled together, her body pushed forward desperately, and she didn't even look at Rong Chenzi .

Rong Chenzi frowned, but his voice was calm: "I need a quarter of an hour to condense the spiritual energy in the mountains to repair the formation. Can your ice freezing technique last?"

The tip of He Mu's nose was slightly wrinkled, and he took a deep breath, his eyes were wet, and he wanted to say something, but when he looked up and saw Rong Chenzi's serious face, she didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Rong Chenzi made his handprints and began to collect the spiritual energy nearby. Looking back, he saw the clam biting its lower lip with its upper teeth, looking like it was about to cry. Between the ice.The gap was so small that the back of his hand was scratched and the ice was stained red with blood.

He Mu looked up at him, Rong Chenzi lowered his head to meet her gaze, there was a moment of silence, neither of them spoke.He didn't know what method he used, the ancient formation under his feet was repaired by spiritual energy, and it began to thicken slowly.The attraction below didn't seem to last long, and suddenly disappeared.

Rong Chenzi lightened his foot and walked out of the ice around the mussel.Going up the cliff, he withdrew his hand before Qingxuan and Qingsu rushed over, his right arm was scratched below the elbow, bloody and bloody.Fortunately, it was only a skin trauma, and it looked bloody, but it didn't really matter.He didn't even frown, just cast a hemostatic spell casually, tore off a corner of his inner shirt and was about to bandage it up.

The mussel sniffed the scent of the fairy's flesh and blood, and swallowed a few times, but seeing Rong Chenzi's solemn expression, she didn't ask for meat, but quietly picked up a piece of ice stained with his blood and put it in her mouth Quenching.

Liu House.

Chunyu Linzheng led a team of officers and soldiers to spread plant ash all over Lingxia town.The weather in early winter was already very cold, and the officers and soldiers were all wearing padded jackets. He was dressed in red, glistening like blood, light and elegant, as if he was not in the world.

He was leaning against a eucalyptus tree that had lost its yellow leaves. The sky was light gray, like a gloomy face.The sun is light and light, like a round piece of thin ice, hanging weakly in the air.Chun Yulin watched the late migrating birds, and suddenly remembered those years as fine as quicksand in the Lingxia sea area.

"Priest." The voice of a girl behind her was as soft as the winter sun, "It's getting cold, you...you should wear more clothes." A light gray cloak covered his shoulders, and when Chun Yulin turned around, he saw Liu Qinfang.

She wore a smoky blue dress embroidered with a lark holding a gold bead. The jade ornaments around her waist and the pearls around her ears were all carefully selected and matched, and her face was thinly powdered.Fourteen or five years old, like a flower bud that is about to bloom, delicate and youthful.It's just that pair of eyes, I don't know why they are flushed.

Chunyu Lin's footsteps were slightly wrong, and he took half a step back: "Thank you Miss Liu for your kindness, it's just..."

Before he could continue talking, Liu Qinfang walked away shyly.

Chunyu Lin had no choice but to continue to direct everyone to spread ashes to pave the way.

It was only when Liu Qinfang returned to Liu's residence that her feet hurt. Her little feet were only three inches bound, and she couldn't walk far.She sat down in the small triangular pavilion by the lake in the back garden, her heart was full of the figure in red with black hair, that smiling, peerless grace.

"You think of him in your heart, but he may not care about you." A voice behind him was very low, with a bit of sarcasm.The timbre is almost the same as that of Liu Qinfang herself.

Liu Qinfang was startled, and hurriedly looked back, but there was no one behind her.She stood up abruptly, and the voice sneered again: "That priest is indeed as beautiful as a fairy, but the clam spirit next to him is not an ordinary monster. How could she easily give you the things she kept by her side?"

"Who are you?" Liu Qinfang looked around vigilantly, the voice... came from the lake!
"Of course you know who I am, and you pretend not to know because I can give you what you've been dreaming of." The voice was slow and pleasant, "I could eat you, but I just let you go. You How can you not know who I am?"

Liu Qinfang's expression changed instantly: "It's you!"

A snake's head suddenly protruded from the lake beside the pavilion. The snake's head was only the size of a baby's fist, and its body was as thick as an adult's wrist, with ink patterns on a green background.Liu Qinfang really recognized it - it was the one who ate her biological mother's brain, threw her body into the lake, and sealed itself in the partition wall.

The snake's third eye was closed all the time. It snorted and sneered: "Of course it's me. Now I'm the only one who can let you and that beautiful priest live together."

Liu Qinfang bit her lip. After her biological mother died, she matured a lot: "Why should I trust you? You killed my aunt!"

The snake was completely submerged in the water, but the voice was dull: "If it weren't for your aunt's identity, you are the daughter of the old man Liu Ge, and you must be worthy of a good son-in-law by now. How could you be given by your father to a Taoist priest as a concubine?"

Liu Qinfang shook hands into a fist, her nails piercing her palm.The snake didn't appear again, but the voice was extremely clear: "She deserves to die. And she died, but you still have to live. In short, I can let you get the one you love, and you can live together with him forever. If you wish, come here at Zishi tonight. Remember, Zishi is not waiting for the time."

Mussel and Chenzi went up the cliff and were about to go down when two woodcutters suddenly came up from the top of the mountain, each carrying a bundle of dry firewood, a sharp ax and a leather water bag hanging from his waist, trousers rolled up to his calf, a muscular body, It looks very stout.

He Mu didn't care about that, she skipped back and forth as if nothing had happened, thinking about the dinner Chunyu Lin had made.Rong Chenzi walked up to her and stretched out his left hand expressionlessly.He Mu wrinkled his nose, and took a long time to silently take out a white snake egg and put it in Rong Chenzi's palm.Rong Chenzi said indifferently: "Huh?"

She hesitated for a moment, then took out another one.Seeing that Rong Chenzi was still silent, he pouted and handed over the remaining few coins.Several snake gallbladders are the size of an egg, and are snow white in color. When viewed under strong light, you can see faint light blue shadows inside.

Rong Chenzi didn't know how to describe this mussel—it was at a critical moment of life and death, this fellow could still think about her lotus eggs...

The two woodcutters got closer and closer, Rong Chenzi gradually came to the rear, Qingxuan and Qingsu followed He Mu.The two woodcutters walked up to the four of them, wiped the sweat on their foreheads with their sleeves, and the sackcloth was still covered with mud: "Master Dao, my brother went up the mountain to cut firewood, and the dry food fell off the cliff over there. I haven't eaten it since morning." Take a bite. Can the Taoist..."

The two approached Rong Chenzi, suddenly they flipped their hands, and the two sharp axes smashed down through the wind.Rong Chenzi's face was as calm as water, and with a wave of the whisk in his hand, the two axes had already been thrown out.The woodcutter in brown sackcloth leaned forward, and the other woodcutter opened his mouth, and a jet of dark green venom spewed out from his mouth!

Rong Chenzi blocked it with his palm, and He Mu had already stood beside Qing Xuan and Qing Su.As soon as two ice picks appeared in the air, the clam's voice was delicate and crisp: "Six taels!!" Then there was only a puff, and the ice picks sank into the chests of the two woodcutters like sharp arrows.Before Rong Chenzi had time to retreat, the chests of the two woodcutters exploded with a bang.

The heart, lungs, and intestines were sprayed everywhere, and there were two dead snakes with different heads in the cavity.Rong Chenzi couldn't dodge in time, and his hair was stained with some flesh and blood. He turned his head to look at the clam, and the clam kept walking, pretending not to see it.

Qing Xuan and Qing Su followed Rong Chenzi back: "Master has long seen that there is a difference between these two?"

Rong Chenzi nodded: "It's already early winter, and the two of them are still dressed in summer, isn't it strange?"

Qingxuan was puzzled: "Master knows that the two of them are weird, why did he wait for them to approach before doing anything?"

Rong Chenzi looked serious: "How can human life be trifling with? You have to be very careful."

After saying these words, the big river clam bounced back again.

Rong Chenzi raised his head and looked over, but saw more than a dozen villager-like people slowly coming along the narrow path in the mountains.
