Mortal Bones

"In that day's competition, although we won the first of the seven peaks, our energy was severely damaged. In the end, we lost to the second peak in the next round. Then my old disease relapsed and I was sent to Baicao Hall with you. "

In a ward of Baicaotang, senior sister Jiang Zhi briefly told Xu Taiping, who had already gotten out of bed, what happened after he fell into coma that day.

Xu Taiping nodded, and at the same time looked at the mountain patrol mirror placed in front of him again.

In the mirror, Zhao Linglong was supporting her second senior brother Qing Xiao to walk down the arena on Jianping. Behind them, Yan Bing, the top disciple of the First Peak, was being carried off the arena by Jin Hezhi and Huang Qi. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Thank you for your hard work, Second Senior Brother."

Looking at Qingxiao's red-dyed robe in the patrol mirror, Xu Taiping couldn't help clenching his fists, and the idea of ​​quickly improving his cultivation became more and more intense.

The picture in the mirror at this moment is the last "Ask the Sword Qingxuan" of this Seven Peaks Competition.

And this Wenjian Qingxuan is also the only competition among the seven peaks that allows disciples to fight.

When he woke up, the competition between his second senior brother Qing Xiao and Yan Bing had just come to an end.

I was lucky enough to see Senior Brother Qingxiao take down Qingxuan Sword Leader with my own eyes.

However, in this competition, Senior Brother Qingxiao won very fiercely. Taiping only had twenty or thirty injuries that could be seen with the naked eye, not to mention invisible internal injuries.

"Yes, fortunately Qingxiao is here, otherwise our Qifeng wouldn't have won a single victory this time...ahem..."

Senior sister Jiang Zhi sighed, and then started coughing again.

"Senior sister, you can go and rest. I'm fine."

Xu Taiping turned to look at senior sister Jiang Zhi and persuaded.

"That's fine."

Jiang Zhi smiled slightly and nodded.

Even though she is seriously ill, her smile still gives people a feeling of spring breeze.

But just as Jiang Zhi stood up, she fell to the ground again with a "plop".

"Sister."

Xu Taiping hurriedly stepped forward and helped Jiang Zhi up.

At this time, Jiang Zhi was already unconscious.

He had no choice but to put her on his hospital bed first.

"Taiping, I haven't finished what I just said."

At this moment, Bai Yu in the gourd suddenly transmitted a message to him.

"Did Sister Lingyue give you something before she fell asleep?"

Xu Taiping asked.

When he just woke up, Bai Yu sent him a message and told him that Fairy Lingyue had fallen asleep in the earth fruit.

And this was one of the reasons why he felt that too many things had happened in the past three days.

According to Bai Yu, the main reason why Fairy Lingyue was in such a hurry was that she sensed that the ground fruit in the courtyard had already sprouted bamboo shoots. If she didn't go in, a bamboo would be wasted.

Xu Taiping was actually not too surprised by this.

When he broke through the Open Door Realm before, Fairy Lingyue fell asleep once in advance because she helped him deal with the extraterrestrial demons, and she also left him a letter at that time.

"That's right."

Bai Yu responded and then continued:

"Sister Lingyue left you two letters in the gourd. One of the envelopes is circled for you to open immediately when you wake up, and the other envelope is crossed for you to open later."

"I'm going to call the doctor first, and we'll take a look later."

Xu Taiping nodded.

The senior sister fell into a coma, and he had to quickly invite the doctor from Baicaotang.

"No, Sister Lingyue wants you to read it immediately. There must be no delay."

Bai Yu emphasized in a very stern tone.

"You don't know, this is the first time I've seen her speak in such a stern tone."

It then added.

Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping suddenly stopped.

Fairy Lingyue would say this, she must have something important to tell him.

"I'll watch it now."

Xu Taiping took out the letter from the gourd without saying a word.

After opening the envelope, Xu Taiping saw an ordinary piece of letter paper and a folded talisman.

"Why did Sister Lingyue leave a talisman for me?"

Xu Taiping's heart tightened and he had a bad premonition.

Then he unfolded the letter.

And the first sentence on the letter made his scalp numb——

"Taiping, I was injured. I was injured by the red-haired sword ghost."

Xu Taiping froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Sister Lingyue was injured?

Or was he injured by the red-haired sword ghost?

His brain fell into brief confusion.

But immediately, after trying to calm down his mind, he began to look back:

"Don't worry, I'm fine, I just have to enter the Earth Fruit in advance."

"But what I want to tell you now is very important. You must remember it well."

"First of all, if you opened this letter in Baicao Hall, then quickly hold on to the talisman I gave you, because the red-haired sword ghost is in Baicao Hall."

"Secondly, quickly close the door. I left another talisman on your door, which can block the red-haired sword ghost. However, it has been several days and the power of this talisman has weakened. You can close the door now. The effect will be better.”

Seeing this, Xu Taiping quickly stepped forward and closed the door.

Then he continued to read.

"I have written the complete ins and outs of this matter, as well as what happened during the days when you were asleep, in another letter. You don't have to rush to know. You only need one thing at the moment. Regarding this red-haired sword ghost, I also Misstep, it's far more powerful than you and I imagined, and it's coming for you."

"Bang, bang, bang!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room, and Xu Taiping was startled.

"Junior brother Taiping, are you awake? I am your fourth senior brother."

At this time, a man's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Four...fourth senior brother?"

Xu Taiping frowned.

The senior sister did say before that the fourth senior brother had woken up two days before the stabbing, and said she would come to see him later.

But when he was thinking about whether to open the door, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a line of writing on the letter -

"If you see your fourth senior brother knocking on the door, don't open the door, don't open the door, don't open the door!"

As if he had foreseen this scene in advance, he wrote "Don't open the door" three times in a row on the letter.

Xu Taiping, who had goosebumps all over his body, quickly retreated into the room, and then no longer ignored the knocks and shouts outside, his eyes quickly scanned the letter in his hand——

"Your fourth senior brother was not just injured by the sword ghost. He himself has become a puppet of the sword ghost. The reason why you are targeted by the sword ghost is also closely related to him, so you must not open the door. ”

"Your situation is very dangerous now. You must do what I say below. Only in this way can we temporarily seal the sword ghost and gain a chance of survival for you and the rest of Qifeng!"
