Killing God

Chapter 57 Search (Part 1)

The storm still didn't mean to stop. The dark clouds in the sky gathered and drooped, looking like a ferocious beast roaring and roaring at the world.

Herring Six Islands was specially developed by the Lingxiaozong for new disciples, including past disciples of the Qi Refining Realm, to settle and practice. In addition to the numerous Qi Refining realm disciples on weekdays, there are also a large number of direct disciples of the Lingxiao Sect on the island. The worst Dao deeds of these personally transmitted disciples have also been cultivated to the Ning Yuan realm. Among them, there are several outstanding people who have already cultivated to a further divine artistic realm. Even within the sect of the Lingxiao sect, it is no longer to be underestimated. Characters.

Among the many direct disciples, Wang Gen, who is now the most prestigious and one of the "Three Swords of the Sky", is naturally headed. In fact, Zongmen Li is indeed entrusting Wang Gen with the important task and ordering him to preside over the six herring islands. Everything big and small. In addition to Wang Gen, there are many outstanding disciples under the Ling Xiao Sect on this Herring Island. Some assist Wang Gen in handling all kinds of affairs on weekdays, and some are appointed by many important halls under the Ling Xiao Sect to handle the tasks of newcomers. It was commissioned by the sect to guard some important places on the Herring Island, with various purposes, but at this moment, except for a few important places that are really inseparable from people, all the direct disciples on Herring Island have been Wang Gen summoned to the Herring Jixuanritang.

Even in addition to the disciples of these high-level Taoists, even the disciples of the Qi Refining Realm who have not yet broken through their cultivation on the island, many people were called over under the wind and heavy rain.

In the lobby of Xuanri Hall, people are already standing at this moment, among them there are many direct disciples. This scene is very rare since the opening of Qingyu Island. Many disciples of Lingxiaozong who know each other but are scattered everywhere are They were standing together in twos and threes, looking around each other, talking in whispers.

And at the main seat in front of the big house, Wang Gen, who is the focus of attention, has a cold face. He is usually not angry and prestigious. Today, it seems to be even more faint and compelling. Many of the direct disciples have a bit of a bit Back shocked, not to mention those young disciples who are not noble in the Qi Refining Realm. In fact, Wang Gen suddenly called them dozens of people to come to Xuan Ri Hall. They have not figured out until now.

Wang Gen is tall and burly, standing there is naturally the focus of the crowd, with an overwhelming aura. At this moment, he is standing at a table that was temporarily moved, and a large picture is spread out on the table in front of him, looking like the terrain of Qingyu Island. The sketches, while constantly waving their hands for people to come up, are generally personal disciples who walk on the Ning Yuan realm, and then an individual delineates a range on the map and instructs them to search for someone.

The personal disciples who were called all nodded in agreement. Although the storm is raging outside, for them who are on the Ning Yuan realm, as long as they don’t really fall into the legendary storm center that contains the power of heaven and earth, ordinary wind and rain outside. Big waves, in fact, did not pose much threat to them.

Except for Wang Gen, who was coldly frowning and arranged meticulously one by one, Zheng Zhe was also standing beside him, and from time to time he urged the same door to come by. In addition, there were two other disciples standing beside them, but they all said nothing. Wang Gen didn't pay any attention to their meanings. He let them stand beside them from the beginning. Very ugly.

Under Xuanri Hall, there are many personal disciples who have not been called there whispering and talking in low voices. One of them whispered: "What happened to Zhong Qingshan and Xu Baichuan in Zhentang? By the way, you still have a black face like a dead person at home?"

Someone sneered and said, "Nonsense, the one who was lost this time is the new disciple in the hall. Under Brother Wang Gen's anger, there is no good fruit for the two of them."

The other disciple of Ling Xiaozong who stood with the two of them looked shorter, but he was the disciple Lin who made a mistake when he went to post the storm notice. At this moment, he glanced forward and said twice. : "It seems that they were taught by Senior Brother Wang Gen not lightly."

The first disciple who spoke before took a look, shook his head, lowered his voice and said, "Lin Hu, haven't you seen Brother Wang Gen this morning? Why did Brother Wang make such a big fire this time? After such a big battle, I think nine out of ten direct disciples on the island are called here to find someone?"

The others snorted and said, "You are silly, don’t forget that the elder teachers in the Zongmen used to preside over the affairs on this Qingyu Island in the past. Only from the beginning of this year, Zongmen decided to let our generation Distinguished disciples from China came to take charge of the affairs of Herring Island. The first time I did something, there was a mistake that I had never seen before. If I changed it to you, I couldn't bear it in anger!"

The person who spoke first suddenly realized, nodded and said: "So, I have forgotten this one." After that, he seemed to remember something again, and glanced at Wang Gen, his face secretly. Quietly with a strange expression, he whispered to the two people beside him, "By the way, I still remember that in order to fight for this position a few days ago, the senior brothers and sisters in the sect had been fighting for a long time? "

Lin Hu chuckled, with a sneer on his face, and said: "Who said no, the three Lingxiao Swords are all interested in this one. In addition, Senior Brother Sun Hongsun has a very high reputation. Needless to say, the family background was not very eager a while ago. In the end, the master teacher chose his own disciple, Brother Du. But speaking of it, Brother Wang Gen was lucky. , But Brother Du did the wrong thing to offend the real person in charge of teaching, and this matter fell on Senior Brother Wang."

The disciple of the Lingxiaozong by someone else laughed and said: "Nowadays, the disciples in the door don't know that the real person in charge of teaching is most important to the temperament of hard work, plus the position of presiding over the affairs of Qingyu Island. If you have a relationship with the new outstanding juniors and sisters The friendship of a half-teacher has both connections and prestige. Coupled with the name of the younger generation who is the first choice to preside over major events, in the future, Brother Wang's status in the sect will definitely rise, and no one can stop it. But who knows will come out. This kind of thing..."

Lin Hu sneered again. Seeing what he was about to say, he heard Wang Gen suddenly shouting, "Lin Hu."

Lin Hu's body shook, and the expression on his face instantly changed to a respectful look, and he ran to Wang Gen's side in a trot, a cautious and respectful appearance, but the two Ling Xiaozong disciples behind him were a little dumbfounded. One person said: "My dear, Lin Hu, his face has become quite quick."

Wang Gen did not talk nonsense with Lin Hu. He directly pointed out a beach on the map and asked him to search for it immediately under the wind and rain. Lin Hu fully agreed, and Wang Gen nodded and called the next direct disciple, Lin Hu. Just about to leave, he was caught by Zheng Zhe who was standing next to him again, and carefully exhorted.

Following such instructions one by one, Wang Gen handled quickly and meticulously. He soon arranged all the disciples who passed on by himself and sent them out to find them. After a while, dozens of people were still standing under the main hall of Hall Xuanri. They were almost all disciples in the refining realm.

These people are not new disciples who have just entered the island this year, but old disciples who have entered the island to practice before but have not broken through. If you look carefully, you will find that disciples like Su He are among them. It seems that it was the newcomer who entered the island that day. At that time, Ling Xiaozong arranged for the newcomers to be the supervisors.

Wang Gen turned his head and looked at the crowd with a cold expression and stern eyes. The crowd was intimidated by him, and they all bowed their heads for a while, and no one dared to look at Wang Gen.

Wang Gen didn’t talk nonsense, and said directly: “You are all seniors who have the responsibility of supervision. Now go to Baiyuwan Newcomer Dongfu. One by one, you will open the Dongfu and nod your heads, and check all the newcomer disciples under your name. If there is any missing person, come and report it to me immediately!"

At the end of the talk, his tone was a bit sharp.

Everyone quickly agreed, and they didn't care about the wind and rain, all of them swarmed out to the Baiyu Bay.

※※※

In Xuanri Hall, everyone gradually dispersed, including Zhong Qingshan and Xu Baichuan, who had been standing next to Wang Gen with black faces and depressed, also followed them out to search. In the big house, only Wang Gen and Zheng Zhe were left. people.

It was at this time that Wang Gen's expression on his face relaxed a little, showing a bit of exhaustion, rubbing his eyebrows and sitting down on the chair, but the deep anxiety on his face still lingered. go with.

Zheng Zhe walked to his side and whispered: "Brother, you have sent people to Baiyuwan. Is it because you are afraid that besides Zhong Qingzhu, there are other new disciples who have also lost?"

Wang Gen nodded and said, "I was negligent in the front. I only looked at those hallways, but forgot that most of them were from aristocratic families. Some of the new disciples have no background and no way out, and they may not be able to receive them on the island. Mission, in case a few are missed..." After that, his face became gloomy again.

Zheng Zhe didn't know what to say for a while, he hesitated, and comforted: "Anyone who can worship the sect and practice cultivation will not be a fool. Ordinary people will go back to the cave early to escape when they see such wind and rain, brother Don't worry too much."

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case." Wang Gen slowly exhaled, feeling a little depressed. He suddenly clapped the back of his chair and said in hate, "That Lin Hu is really rubbish, and the little one posted a notice. If you don't do it well, you have caused such a big disaster. After this time, you must be punished."

The corner of Zheng Zhe's mouth twitched, and he mourned for a moment of silence for that Lin Hu, and wondered whether he should bite the bullet and beg for Lin Hu, he saw Wang Gen suddenly got up and stood up, as if he had made a determination, his face was firm, and said: "You are here waiting for everyone to report back, and I will go and search the sea off the island."

Zheng Zhe was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Brother, this is absolutely not the case. Now the storm is raging and the wind and rain are blowing. This island is okay. If you go outside the island rashly, you will most likely get into the center of the storm. Life is in danger!"

Wang Gen paused slightly, but he still said in a deep voice, "I have the magic weapon'Tianlongding' for body protection. It should be fine, and the lost person..." He took a long breath, his eyes were like a knife, and said in awe ,

"Anyway, I want to see people in life, and corpses in death!"

Chapter 58 Search (Part 2)

In the cloudy sky, violent storms have been raging for the whole night, but there is still no sign of stopping and fading. With heavy winds and heavy rains and turbulent waves, there are still waves of herring standing silently and enduringly in the sea like endless waves.

But under Wang Gen's decisive and resolute position, under the seemingly calm appearance of the wind and rain, the whole Herring Island has been tossed, and there are disciples of Lingxiaozong searching for people everywhere, flying into the water in the wind and rain, Baiyu Bay The front of the new cave mansion was also full of noisy hustle and bustle. The stone gates of the cave mansion were all called open. The grim-faced supervisor brothers also checked carefully and pointed out the number of people.

At the same time, at the bottom of a remote, narrow and deep tiankeng, after the initial excitement, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu finally had to face another desperate situation that they might not be able to escape.

This road is obviously the wrong direction.

In the darkness deep in the cave before, the two of them crawled all the way and even saw the fluorescent stone tunnel behind. Along the way, although the terrain was uneven, there were no other forks in the cave. Basically, the two walked all the way. Being here, it is obvious that they chose the wrong direction at first.

The cliff is more than a hundred meters high, towering into the sky, and the rock wall is smooth and steep. In their current situation, they have no way to walk. After all, they are just new disciples who have just started to practice. It is impossible to escape from here anyway. . And at the bottom of the tiankeng, through the dark light of the sky, you can see that it is about ten meters square, except for a pool that occupies about half of the place in the front. It is surrounded by hard rock walls, which is a cave behind them. Apart from this, there is no other export.

Seeing this scene before them, both Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were unable to say a word for a long while, their faces were pale. Just now because of the excitement and strength that they saw hope that they were about to be saved, they are now like a discouraged ball. Dissipated in the body.

Tiredness and pain, like the darkness in the depths of the cave, yelled from every corner of the body, swarming them, making the two of them unable to support.

Zhong Qingzhu couldn't support it at first, leaning on the stone wall and slowly sitting on the ground, his teeth biting his lips tightly, his face was no longer bloody. Shen Shi looked a little better, but his face was also extremely ugly, no matter who faced life and death, it was difficult to keep calm, not to mention that he was only a teenager after all.

After a while, he also slowly sat down beside Zhong Qingzhu, lowered his head and said nothing.

Zhong Qingzhu's face was pale, he glanced at him and whispered: "Stone, what shall we do?"

Shen Shi slowly raised his head and glanced at the towering cliffs around him, shook his head and said, "I can't get out here."

Zhong Qingzhu gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's go back?"

Shen Shi glanced at her and didn't say a word. After Zhong Qingzhu asked this sentence, he also gave a wry smile without saying anything.

The two survived in the depths of the cave. Both of them had been injured in multiple places. Although they were not fatal, they were not easy to take together. Among them, Zhong Qingzhu's left hand was broken. Under such circumstances, two people supported each other, groped in the dark, crawled for a long distance in the puddles, and persisted here. It is a miracle beyond their age, even if it’s another time, or It's really hard to say whether they can walk out alone in the darkness.

And if you look back at this moment, will you be able to go back to the previous entrance in the other direction? Not to mention, in that deep, terrible and completely dark cave, will there be danger, will there be poisonous insects and monsters, this way There is no fork in the road, so when heading in that direction, there must be no fork in the road in the cave?

More importantly, the two of them almost exhausted all their energy before they were struggling here, and then walked back again to see if they could return to the middle of the cave where they woke up. Not to mention, how much is there in the dark front? The long corridor needs to crawl over? Can the two of them really survive?

No one is a fool, at least neither Shen Shi nor Zhong Qingzhu. The joints are dangerous, even if they are not old, but after careful consideration, how can they not think of it, can't figure it out?

If you don’t leave, you will probably die here; if you look back on the adventure, you will almost certainly die in the dark and terrible cave.

Before the two of them, they turned out to be such two desperate roads.

※※※

Shen Shi leaned against the stone wall and stared at the sky blankly. The mountain pass that was closed by the cliff and only exposed a small area, the clouds were still dense, and the wind and rain were still blowing, but because the mountain wall blocked it, it reached the bottom of their sinkhole. , The storm that was raging and violent has calmed down a lot, turning into a long and dangling rain, slowly falling down, dampening their hair and clothes, but no matter whether Shen Shi or Zhong Qingzhu, at this time, there is no strength to pay attention to this rain. Up.

There is a quiet place under the sinkhole, perhaps because there is a water hole here. The stone wall at the bottom is very moist, and moss can be seen everywhere. The rain falling from the sky is rising and falling in the clear water pool, swinging in waves. Ripples, interlaced with drizzle and silent sorrow.

I don't know how long it took, Shen Shi suddenly said, "Do you want to go back and go again?"

Zhong Qingzhu's back was leaning against the stone wall, her body seemed to feel a little bit chilly, and she couldn't help but moved closer to Shen Shi. When the shoulders of the two leaned together, she seemed to feel a little relieved and her face relaxed a little. After hearing Shen Shi's question, Zhong Qingzhu sighed slightly and said, "If we turn around, can we go out?"

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't know."

I don't know, naturally I am not sure. Looking at his face, I know that even Shen Shi himself is pessimistic about the way back. Zhong Qingzhu shook his head and said: "If I must die, I would rather die here than go back to the bottom."

Shen Shi didn't say anything, just leaning back against the stone wall, and at the same time feeling the faint warmth and inexplicable fragrance of Zhong Qingzhu's shoulders leaning over, he suddenly felt a little better.

Then he thought of something, and suddenly his body moved, Zhong Qingzhu quickly noticed his strangeness, turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Shi seemed to hesitate a bit, and after a wry smile, he said: "I just remembered the thing that I wanted to ask you before and I forgot."

Zhong Qingzhu said: "What is it?"

Shen Shi took a breath and said, "Didn't we talk about spiritual crystals as food in the first place? I wanted to ask you, do you have spiritual crystals on your body now?"

Zhong Qingzhu's expression moved, and his eyes suddenly increased a little bit of brilliance. Both of them are newcomers who have started to cultivate. As long as they have spiritual crystals on their bodies, they can recover their physical strength once they start practicing, even if they are trapped here, they have spiritual crystals. There is no danger of starving to death with the supplement of spiritual power. After all, they have just started to practice, and the spiritual power required is extremely small. Even a single spiritual crystal can support them not to die for several days.

With this time, maybe we will wait until the rescuers arrive!

Thinking of this, Zhong Qingzhu suddenly became happy, with some stage wings in his eyes, and said: "I, I didn't bring the spirit crystal when I went out to pick up shells, did you bring it?"

Shen Shi held his forehead with his hand, and said with a wry smile: "I am also afraid that if I lose it with my hand, it will delay my cultivation, so I also put the spirit crystal in the cave and plan to go back to practice at night."

Zhong Qingzhu was speechless. After a while, he finally bowed his head in disappointment. Shen Shi was also silent. He looked up at the wind and rain, and felt that all the roads had come to an end, and there was no way to survive. Sighed.

※※※

Under the cliff, the wind is not strong and the rain is falling.

The moss is dark green, the pool water is faint, and there are a few weeds by the water, surrounded by three or two wild flowers, in this deep and uninhabited valley, alone spit a touch of spring.

After sitting for a long time, the exhaustion on his body finally seemed to subside a bit, barely regaining some energy. After the initial desperate blow, Shen Shi managed to cheer himself up. With a chance of one in ten thousand, he went around the bottom of the sinkhole and checked it carefully, hoping to find some permission to leave. .

But in the end, Shibi Sensen, after all, cut off all his hopes.

Standing by the water pool, he slowly turned around. At the entrance of the cave, Zhong Qingzhu also stood up on the stone wall, looking up at him.

In response to Zhong Qingzhu’s gaze, Shen Shi just shook his head slowly, a trace of disappointment flashed across Zhong Qingzhu’s face, but apparently he had expected this result in his heart for a long time, and did not have much reaction, just slowly come over.

The rain fell on her face by the temple, taking advantage of her face becoming paler.

Shen Shi frowned and said, "The injury on your hand is still not healed, so you should go back to the cave where there is no rain and take a rest."

Zhong Qingzhu's eyes fell on the pool next to the two of them, looked at the clear water, and whispered: "What about taking a break? Isn't it the same as waiting for death?"

Shen Shi was silent.

Zhong Qingzhu glanced back at him, her eyes soft, and after a while, he said, "Stone, or you go to the cave and come out again later, OK?"

Shen Shi frowned and said, "I'm fine, I don't need to go to hide from the rain."

Zhong Qingzhu’s pale cheeks suddenly seemed to have a faint blush passing by. Even in this desperate situation, he was still a little bit ashamed, but he seemed unwilling to blame the boy in front of him. He just whispered: "If so If I want to die here, I would also like to die clean. I was crawling in the water all the way just now. My body is so dirty, I want to wash it in this water..."

Shen Shi stayed for a while before he woke up. Zhong Qingzhu meant that he wanted to wash his body in this pool before dying and wait for death with peace of mind. For a while, he felt embarrassed, and at the same time, he felt inexplicable. A moment of sadness, he looked at Zhong Qingzhu deeply, then nodded, and said: "I know, I will go over, you will call me when you wash it, and I will come out."

Zhong Qingzhu blushed, only nodded and responded in a low voice, without speaking.

Listening to the sound of footsteps walking away slowly behind him, Zhong Qingzhu felt that his face was feverish and a little hot. Looking at the clear pool of water in front of him, she seemed a little silly for a while. After a while, she sighed softly. With a sound, he raised his uninjured right hand, stretched it to his chest, slowly unbuttoned the first button, and then reached out to untie the second one.

Suddenly, at this moment, Shen Shi suddenly exclaimed from behind her:

"Damn!"

The sound of footsteps sounded, and it was actually Shen Shi rushing over from behind. Zhong Qingzhu was taken aback. His face was red and his ears were red, and he subconsciously covered his chest with his hands. Although there was only one button untied and the skin was not exposed, but at this moment in her heart Inexplicably like a deer ramming around, but also a little angry and embarrassed, he turned his head and glared at Shen Shi, wondering if this bad guy had any weird thoughts?
