Xie Linglu - Chapter 169
In the flash of light and flint, Ji Xinxi reacted. The mud at her feet was not water stains, but blood. She didn’t want to squeeze the wooden sign of Qu Ruopang in her hand. She didn’t need to speak. Qu Ruopang had already entered. her body.
With a back jump, Ji Xinxi returned to the bonfire where Xun Nagan was, and Xun Nagan was putting away the wine bottle when he was roasting the fire. When he saw Ji Xinxi suddenly come back, he frowned before he had time to ask.
Ji Xinxi stood beside Xun Youling who was meditating, opened his mouth and said, “Master, there is a problem here. Blood actually started to seep out of the frozen soil.”
Xun Nagan stood up immediately, the fan behind him closed, and the sound of the fan bones merging exploded in everyone’s ears like thunder, and Xun Youling who was meditating heard the sound and got up from the ground one after another.
There is no need for others to explain, the faces of several people are solemn. The camp that was originally empty can only smell the smell of bonfires and vegetation, but now the blood-red mist is filled with blood, and the thick **** smell is mixed with the pungent evil spirit directly into the nose. Ordinary people can see that something is wrong here.
Xun Youling approached Ji Xinxi for a few minutes and asked in a low voice, “What’s going on?”
Ji Xinxi glanced around and replied, “I don’t know, everything was fine at first, but it suddenly became like this.”
Xun Youling nodded to indicate that she knew, and then she asked with concern: “The blood here is so heavy, can you still bear it?”
Ji Xinxi was stunned for a moment, only to realize that she didn’t feel any discomfort this time. Her eyes were slightly startled to see that Wen Lianzhen was already beside her. Xun Youling saw it and stopped asking, but Ji Xinxi lowered her eyes. Cover your eyes with complicated thoughts.
Several people were standing in the same place, each on guard and did not move around. Xun Nagan waved the fan in Xun Nagan’s hand a few times. After the blood mist was dispersed, it quickly gathered, as if it was a steady stream. He simply didn’t need that effort.
As the fog became heavier and heavier, everyone’s sight began to be affected to a certain extent. At some point in the fog, a fire lit up, and a talisman was burning in front of Xun Youling and the others, blocking the fog from them.
Xun Youling originally wanted to burn one for Ji Xinxi, but Ji Xinxi shook her head, her vision was still clear and clear, and the blood mist had no effect on her at all.
Ji Xinxi stood among the few people and looked at the other people who were illuminated because of the talisman, but she was still in the darkness, as if she was separated from two worlds, as if she and the strange fog were on the side. of.
Fortunately, Wen Lianzhen was still beside her, but then the other party’s face became ugly, her eyebrows frowned, she said sorry in a low voice, and then dodged back to the wooden sign in Ji Xinxi’s pocket.
The blood mist here is mixed with suffocating energy, which has a great impact on Yin spirits like Wen Lianzhen, and the opponent’s strength has not recovered, so they can’t squeeze into Ji Xinxi’s body when Qu Ruohang is already on his body, so he can only return to the body. among the wooden signs.
At this moment, an unspeakable emotion surged in Ji Xinxi’s heart. The feeling of grievance in his sleep seemed to reappear. Suddenly, a soft light illuminated half of Ji Xinxi’s body. Xun Youling turned and pinched Ji Xin. palm of the past.
Ji Xinxi turned her head to look, Xun Youling’s eyes were still searching around, but she took a few steps closer, and her heart was instantly comforted, she shook Xun Youling’s hand back.
The originally quiet surroundings suddenly heard a shrill sound, as if something had slipped across the ground. Everyone leaned down slightly and turned their ears to distinguish the location of the sound.
No one was talking at this time, worried that it would disturb everyone’s attention. The voice sounded for a while and then quieted down. Ji Xinxi’s eyes were not hindered by the blood mist, but Fu Lu’s light affected her discernment.
Ji Xinxi released Xun Youling’s hand and took two steps forward to get out of the range of the radiant light. She faced the sudden contraction of her pupils in front of her, and shouted, “Come on, get out of the fog!”
When everyone heard this, they reacted very quickly. Xun Youling pulled her back and retreated a few times. The talisman that had been parked in front of everyone shot forward in a neat and uniform manner, and then exploded in mid-air. Xun Nagan waved a folding fan in his hand. , expanding the airflow caused by the explosion, and suddenly a large blood mist in front of the few people was blown away.
Before the blood mist gathered again, they saw Yingyingchuo’s countless thin black shadows swaying in the blood mist, and the hair of the person watching stood upright.
Those black images were stimulated by the spiritual power inspired by the talisman, and their movements became crazy. The sound of breaking through the air sounded, breaking through the fog and coming to everyone. Only then did everyone see the true face of the black shadow. It was actually a black rattan. .
These rattans are of different sizes. The thick ones are as thick as forearms, and the thin ones are as thin as fingers. When they entered this camp before, they hadn’t seen so many rattans, but now they are surprisingly numerous.
Xun Zuo and Xun You let out a low laugh. Ji Xinxi noticed that the two of them were holding a wooden knife in each hand. They twisted their wrists and pulled a knife flower.
The two of them rushed to the left and right, facing the rattan in front of them. The figures shuttled between the rattans. The tacit understanding of the cooperation was amazing. He didn’t lose his response immediately, but twisted and struggled on the ground. The juice flowing out of the fracture was bright red, making the surrounding blood smell stronger.
Xun Zuo and Xunyou were on the verge of slashing when they suddenly attacked the rattan in front of them, suddenly changing directions, dodging the blades they were swung over, as if they were consciously attacking from the side.
Xun Zuo let out a light sigh and said hello to Xun You who was not far away. The two reunited, back to back to block the attack from the dead end.
Seeing this, Xun Ge quickly formed a seal in his hand, took out a stack of talismans, and waved his arms to the sky.
The golden spot of light fell on the rattan, making a “squeaky” sound, and the rattan seemed to be in great pain, dodging frantically.
Ji Xinxi watched the three people attack in an orderly manner. Even if they encountered unexpected situations, they were able to adapt to the situation.
Xun Nagan frowned and stood on the spot, watching the overwhelming rattan do not move, his eyes wandered exploratively, and the fan in his hand was constantly changing positions in his hand like an electric motor.
Ji Xinxi, who was nervously observing the situation, suddenly felt a chill behind her. Her first reaction was to pull Xun Youling to the side, and a cane rubbed her shoulder and slid over. These canes were unknowingly. It went around to their rear, or they were already attacked by the enemy.
As soon as the cane was hit, it turned around and attacked again. Xun Youling subconsciously reached out to block it. She grabbed the cane, and with a wave of the copper coin sword, split the cane into two. She raised her eyebrows and released the cane in her hand.
Ji Xinxi stood firm and saw a little blood seeping out from Xun Youling’s palm, Xun Youling shook his hand and said indifferently, “It’s okay, I didn’t expect that these rattans actually had barbs, I scratched a few small strokes with my bare hands. mouth.”
When Ji Xinxi heard the words, he lowered his eyebrows and looked at the rattan on the ground, and found that there was still a little Xun Youling’s blood on the rattan, and the rattan dancing around suddenly changed their movements, frantically rushing towards Ji Xinxi and the others. Come.
Before the two could react, a blade of light slammed into the gathered vines, and Xun Nagan shouted, “Be careful not to get hurt, these ghost vines are bloodthirsty and will chase the smell of blood.”
When Xun Ge heard the words, he raised his head and asked, “Master, do you think these are ghost vines? Will there be too many?”
Xun Nagan nodded and replied, “You can’t be wrong, it’s the ghost vines. This number is really dehumanizing.”
Ji Xin didn’t know what ghost vines were in the past, but just by hearing the name, she knew that it was not easy to deal with. She had no time to ask, because at this moment, ghost vines were madly going here because of the **** smell from the small wound on Xun Youling’s palm. Come on, they don’t have as much room as before.
Suddenly, a cane wrapped around Ji Xinxi’s ankle. She didn’t think about it, she subconsciously raised her hand to pull it, and then remembered Xun Nagan’s exhortation, and secretly said in her heart: No.
But unexpectedly, the cane was easily torn off by her, and although her palm was ripped apart, the cane did not **** her blood, instead a lot of resentment flowed along the broken mouth of the cane into her body.
The rattan quickly withered and withered in Ji Xinxi’s hands, and then a shrill cry sounded, a flash of inspiration flashed in Ji Xinxi’s mind, she grabbed the dry rattan and quickly traced its origin.
Her movements were vigorous, and after a few dodging and jumping, she followed the cane to a tree. The tree that was tall and straight during the day was now twisted into an extremely ugly appearance. Ji Xin walked around the trunk for a while. Circling around, I suddenly found that the lines on a certain part of the tree trunk resembled a distorted human face.
That human face was irrelevant and clearly recognizable, as if it was about to come to life in the next second.
The expression on her face seemed to be experiencing extreme fear, struggling to escape from the tree trunk. Xun Youling chased Ji Xinxi to her side and blocked the ghost vines around her for her.
Ji Xinxi bit her lip, took out the dagger in her backpack, and stabbed it in the pattern on the face. A strong resentment rushed to her face, wrapped her in it in an instant, and poured all of it into her body.
Another scream sounded, even more miserable than the previous one, and then the rattan waving around the tree slumped and struggled a few times on the ground and stopped moving.
Seeing this change, Xun Youling was shocked: “Ghost vine is a tree nourished by spiritual bodies, and it has a lot of resentment. If it can’t be destroyed and the resentment in it can be eliminated, there is no way to completely eliminate it, and it is extremely troublesome to deal with. Xixi, did you **** it dry?”
Ji Xinxi nodded, thinking that it should be what Xun Youling said, thinking of this, they went back to Xun Nagan’s side and told the other party about this discovery.
Hearing this, Xun Nagan asked hesitantly, “There are a lot of ghost vines here. You can imagine how powerful this resentment is. With so much resentment, Ji girl, have you figured it out, can you really stand it?”
Ji Xinxi nodded immediately and replied, “There can be no more than Feng Moxuan’s tomb. At that time, in that tomb, I was able to do it without any problems, and it would not be a problem if I wanted to come here.”
Xun Youling scratched her hair anxiously, wondering if she should agree with Ji Xinxi’s decision, Ji Xinxi grabbed her hand and smiled, “Trust me, just like I believe in you.”
Looking at Ji Xinxi in front of him, Xun Youling no longer hesitated and nodded solemnly.
At this point, Xun Nagan, who was still thinking about how to deal with the ghost vines, took a step forward, called Xun Zuo Xunyou back, and said to Ji Xinxi: “Get ready, Ji girl.”
