Chapter 248
The night has passed, the sun has risen, and a new day has come.
The temperature in the desert rose again, and Wen Qiao and the others were also ready to set off.
Su Molan's face was pale and stood aside like a little daughter-in-law. When she saw Ning Yuzhou's hand, suddenly the surrounding black scorpions who had ignored them were like hungry wolves smelling flesh and blood, and rushed towards them excitedly. come over.
Su Molan's face showed surprise, and she couldn't help but look at Ning Yuzhou.
But he saw him slowly straightening his slightly wrinkled sleeves, his expression inexplicably leisurely, as if he did not take the group of black scorpions that rushed over into his eyes.
Wen Qiao was well prepared and jumped up to deal with these multi-legged creatures with Wen Tutu.
Last night, she asked Su Molan specifically, and she knew that these multi-legged creatures were originally called Black Devouring Scorpions, and they were monster insects living in the Black Wind Desert, but their shells were very good refining materials, and many practitioners liked to use it. Shells are used to refine spiritual tools.
Although she thinks that this odd-looking multi-legged creature only has a scorpion tail that looks like a scorpion, and the other parts are just a random patchwork, but at least she knows the name of this thing, and if the whole thing is brought to the Black Wind Desert for takeout, the price Quite tall.
Wen Qiao decided to hunt a few more when leaving the Black Wind Desert.
After walking in the Black Wind Desert for several months, Wen Qiao has dealt with the Black Devourer a lot, and already knows how to deal with them quickly. In a short while, she cleared the surrounding black scorpions, except for a few that were smashed by her fists, the other shells were well preserved.
Seeing this scene, Su Molan's eyes flickered slightly.
After seeing her easily defeat Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin yesterday, she knew that this person was quite powerful in combat, but she didn't expect it to be much more powerful than she imagined.
"Okay, let's go." Wen Qiao threw the beheaded Black Devourer into the storage bag and jumped onto the Spirit Sword.
Wen Gun Gun and Wen Tutu quickly climbed onto her shoulders and squatted.
Ning Yuzhou also jumped onto the spirit sword and set off together.
Su Molan also followed behind them with Yujian.
Her face was very pale and her spirit was a little lethargic. The scorching heat of the desert scorched her injured body, and there was a bitter sweetness in her throat. She pursed her lips and swallowed the bloody smell abruptly.
The slap that Shen Yuanjin hit yesterday hurt her heart. Although she has taken the elixir, she cannot fully recover in one night.
Su Molan's face became paler and paler, but she still endured the discomfort and followed closely behind the two of them.
When night fell, Wen Qiao and the others stopped to rest again.
Night is not a good time to hurry.
Su Molan walked over vainly, and saw Ning Yuzhou take out a few array plates and set up an array around him. When the formation was formed, the insects, ants, and poisonous snakes in the desert who had originally regarded them as prey left blankly, just like last night, ignoring them directly.
When the fire was raised, Su Molan sat silently aside, with his hands on his knees, silently weeping, like a little daughter-in-law.
Wen Qiao couldn't ignore her tears and asked, "Why are you crying again?"
Su Molan sniffed and whispered, "I'm sorry, I just remembered that I was in the Xiao family..."
Wen Qiao snorted and didn't ask her what time she lived in the Xiao family.
She squatted in front of the fire, dialed the burning talisman fire on it, and suddenly asked, "Why did Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin hunt you down yesterday? Didn't they want to kill you at that time?"
After all, Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin both knew her importance, so how could they possibly kill her? So it was a bit weird that Su Molan asked them for help at that time.
Su Molan was silent for a while, before she said, "They really won't kill me. They want to take me back and imprison me...until I take the initiative to hand over the image of the twenty-eight stars."
"Captivity? Who means? The Xiao family or the Shen family?"
"I don't know, maybe there are." Su Molan said, her expression was very calm, almost indifferent, as if she didn't care who it was.
As long as she can remember, people around her have always looked at her with deep meaning and greed. They both condoned her and demanded her severely. Even if it was the Xiao family and the Shen family who had an agreement with the Pleiades Valley, maybe they really had no ambitions back then, but when the only remaining descendant of the Pleiades Valley was a weak and incompetent generation, what was the agreement?
When the person who carries the strange treasure is too weak to guard it, the world cannot be blamed for the strange heart.
Wen Qiao couldn't help but glance at her, and suddenly said, "You look so much more pleasing to the eye."
Su Molan was stunned for a moment, her nose was sore, and tears were about to fall, so she quickly turned around and wiped it away.
She has discovered that Wen Qiao doesn't like weak people who cry easily. In fact, she didn't want to become such a person, but later, more and more people appeared around her, more and more people with ulterior motives, and conspiracies emerged one after another.
After she suffered a few losses, she finally understood that a weak and crying family bloodline is far more reassuring to those people than shrewd and strong. They all treated her like a fool, as long as she cried every now and then over little things, it was more to their liking.
"Did you come to Heifeng Desert this time to find Yinshenhua?" Wen Qiao asked.
"It wasn't me who was looking for it, it was someone from Motianmen who was looking for it. I just stopped by." Su Molan's eyes flickered slightly, and her words were vague.
In fact, this time, she took the opportunity to enter the Black Wind Desert to get rid of those who stared at her.
It's just that she didn't expect that, after finally getting rid of those people, she met Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin on the floating island who had also entered the Black Wind Desert. They would attack her directly, wanting to make her suffer and tie her back.
Thinking of this, Su Molan's expression darkened.
Su Molan was absent-minded for a while, she didn't hear a sound, she looked up and saw two people sitting next to each other.
The atmosphere between them was intimate and warm. The two sat side by side without any intimacy, but it made people feel the atmosphere that outsiders could not get involved in, and let people know that the relationship between them was very good.
At this time, the two were talking, and a mute spell was placed around them, and Su Molan couldn't hear the sound.
She lowered her eyes, not trying to explore anything.
Wen Qiao took a sip of the freshly boiled Lingguo Soup. In this extremely cold desert night, drinking a bowl of hot and delicious Lingguo Soup warmed her body and replenished her spiritual power. .
The spiritual fruit was picked on the floating island during these days. Every time they went to a floating island, if they saw a spiritual fruit, they were all wrapped up, and they received a lot of praise, enough for them to eat for a long time.
After Ning Yuzhou made soup with Lingguo, it tasted very good. They liked it very much.
After Wen Qiao drank half a bowl of soup, she just said, "Husband, although Su Molan likes to cry a little bit, she's not stupid."
"If she's really stupid, I'm afraid she won't be able to keep the image of the twenty-eight stars, and she'll be coaxed away long ago." Ning Yuzhou smiled, then asked her, "Hey, do you want to take her with you?"
Wen Qiao sighed, "She wants to follow us herself, but there is no way to beat her away, what can you do?"
Although she likes to fight and kill, she thinks that nothing can be solved by force. But she would never hit anyone casually, nor would she commit murder without a reason. Otherwise, after offending Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin yesterday, she should have killed them directly instead of running away when the sand lizard appeared.
In fact, she never wanted to kill for no reason.
In the end, she and Xiao Minxin just met on a narrow path and didn't have any grudges. Even if she took Su Molan away, it didn't reach the level of killing them.
When Ning Yuzhou saw her rare sigh, he couldn't help laughing.
He reached out and touched her head, and said softly, "Don't think so much, just do what you want. I have everything."
His family son, just need to live happily, do what he likes, and move forward bravely. He will be by her side and clear all obstacles and difficulties for her.
Wen Qiao was a little embarrassed by his bottomless indulgence, she seemed a little willful, holding the soup and muttering in a low voice: "Anyway, we have to find someone to understand the Pleiades Continent, Su Molan is The only descendant of the Pleiades Valley, it is estimated that she knows a lot of things, and it is not bad to keep her."
"What Ah Yu said is." Ning Yuzhou said warmly, "Actually, when I heard their conversation yesterday, I knew that Su Molan's identity was not simple, but I could show mercy to her, and there might be unexpected surprises at that time. "
"Are you talking about the image of the twenty-eight constellations?" Wen Qiao asked clearly.
"Not only."
Wen Qiao looked at him suspiciously, could there be something else?
However, Ning Yuzhou didn't mean to explain, he smiled at her, took her empty bowl, and gave her another bowl of Lingguo soup.
Wen Tutu and Wen Gun Gun next to them also finished drinking a bowl, and they were still not satisfied. Chao Ning Yuzhou and Wen Qiao shouted and pushed their empty bowls over.
Ning Yuzhou glanced at them lightly, and on Wen Qiao's face, gave them a bowl again.
Then, he packed a bowl of Lingguo soup and said to Su Molan who was in a daze beside him, "Miss Su, you can drink a bowl too."
Su Molan was flattered and took it, said thank you, and drank it in small sips, her tears couldn't help bursting out again.
But in the end, remember Wen Qiao's poisonous mouth, and don't want to be stabbed by her heart again, so can only endure it silently, but her eyes are red, which is quite pitiful against her pitiful appearance.
Wen Qiao felt that it was not easy for this woman to develop such a character, and asked again, "What did you think of?"
"I think of Xiao Minxin's mother..." Su Molan said with red eyes, "Actually, Uncle Xiao and his wife were very good to me. If it wasn't to protect me, Aunt Xiao wouldn't have died... Aunt Xiao treated me very well. Just like my other mother, if she finds out that after her death, Xiao Minxin and I will break up, I'm afraid she will be the most saddened."
If anyone in the Xiao family has no selfish motives, it is Xiao Xiankai's wife, the wife of the patriarch of the Xiao family.
Mrs. Xiao was really kind to her. She was also a very gentle and kind female cultivator. If her mother hadn't died, she would have loved her like Mrs. Xiao.
It's a pity that Mrs. Xiao died.
After Mrs. Xiao died, Xiao Min hated her very much, thinking that if it wasn't to save her, Mrs. Xiao would not die, it was Su Molan who killed her mother.
Su Molan couldn't argue, because it was a fact.
She owes Mrs. Xiao a life.
What Xiao Minxin said yesterday was good. It is easier for the Xiao family to raise a monster than to raise her.
Seeing that she started to cry silently again, Wen Qiao had a headache, and quickly changed the subject: "Your injury is not healed yet, cry less, quickly heal your injury, do whatever you want, don't have to follow us."
"No, I said that I will give you the image of the twenty-eight constellations, and I will not break my promise." Su Molan pursed her lips and said, a little stubborn.
Wen Qiao refused again: "We really don't want it!"
They also have a lot of treasures on their bodies, so they don't have to covet other people's things at all. Since the hostel has guarded the Twenty-eight Alps for so long, it can be seen that this thing is very tricky, no matter who it falls into, it is troublesome.
Su Molan was startled, she looked at Wen Qiao carefully and found that what she said was true.
It turns out that there are people in this world who really don't want the image of the 28 constellations, not everyone wants it.
Her nose was sore, and she wanted to cry again. She quickly held it back and said in a nasal voice, "If you are afraid that I will cause you trouble, I can... I can ruin your face."
Wen Qiao looked at her in surprise, "So you like to be ugly?"
She touched her face, but she was reluctant to ruin her own face. Although she didn't care about beauty and ugliness, she still had to think about her husband, lest he face an ugly face every day and hurt his eyes.
Su Molan choked again.
She took a deep breath and told herself not to have the same knowledge as young people, after all, she was from the older generation.
After a long while, she said: "I want to live, I don't want to be Su Molan anymore! As long as I am Su Molan's day, they will continue to stare at me, and even control me to have a child with ... Shen Gongzi, as long as he can stay Su Molan It's not that I have to be able to control the image of the twenty-eight constellations with the blood of the family."
Wen Qiao and Ning Yuzhou both looked at her in surprise, and found that this crying bag didn't seem to be just a crybaby, it had already been planned.
"I once got a shape-changing grass. After taking it, it can change my appearance and shape, and it will never be recognized by people. When I use other methods to destroy my face, no one will know that I am Su. Moran..."
Listening to her eloquent talk, Wen Qiao and Ning Yuzhou also began to listen carefully, calculating the feasibility of her plan.
After she finished speaking, Wen Qiao couldn't help but ask, "Why are you telling us your plan? Aren't you afraid that we will betray you?"
"Of course I'm afraid." Su Molan said honestly, "So I can only gamble."
When Xiao Minxin and Shen Yuanjin were chasing her, she happened to see these two people passing by. She already hated this kind of life that was always on guard, and even more hated those who approached her with a purpose that she couldn't refuse, and ruined her reputation. , even her fiancรฉ misunderstood her... so he wanted to take a gamble.
Even if he loses the bet, he won't die for the time being. At most, he will be escorted to give birth to a child, leaving behind the blood of the host.
Besides, there is another reason.
Su Molan glanced at the two of them and continued to drink the soup with her head down. She looked so gentle and delicate, like a little daughter-in-law who was angry.
Wen Qiao couldn't help but say, "Would you like to drink another bowl?"
"is it okay?"
Nothing is impossible, anyway, her husband cooked a lot of Lingguo soup today.
Wen Qiao packed her a bowl and watched her continue to drink soup like an angry little daughter-in-law. She knew that Su Molan had been raised like this, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to break this character back.
After drinking the soup, it was late at night.
Being in the desert, they couldn't sleep at night, so they all decided to meditate and wait for the dawn.
Like last night, Su Molan curled up to resist the coldness of the desert, making a few suppressed coughs from time to time.
Suddenly, something came towards her, Su Molan subconsciously reached out to catch it, spread out her hand and saw that it turned out to be a top-quality elixir.
She looked up, saw Wenqiao looking over, and heard her say, "This is a healing elixir, eat it."
Su Molan was so moved that she wanted to cry again, and then she heard Wen Qiao say, "Don't cry at every turn, restrain yourself, if you can't restrain yourself, go out and fight the black scorpion, and when you don't have the strength to cry, you won't I want to cry."
Su Molan's tears were instantly put away.
The next day, they continued their journey in the desert.
Su Molan's injury has healed for the most part, and it is not as uncomfortable as yesterday, but the high temperature in the desert is still like a steamer, which makes people sweaty and very uncomfortable.
When they passed through a desert, they found that this was a nest of black scorpions, and it was full of black scorpions.
Wen Qiao suddenly stopped.
Standing on the Lingjian, she was light and beautiful, and said to Su Molan, "If you want to follow us, you must first get rid of your crying temperament."
Su Molan looked at her with bright eyes.
"So, you go down now and fight these black scorpions."
Su Molan: "..."
