Chapter 44
Yuan Zhiqing looked at Xia Xiyue's situation, and nodded in satisfaction: This is what a hostage should look like.Otherwise, if this person was still able to slash snakes with a knife before he was captured, he would turn into a dying skeleton in a few days, it would look like they were a demon sect, like some dangerous place that cannibalize people without spitting out bones.
This is a matter of face that cannot be compromised.
...
With the constant daily medicated bath.Many of the poisons that were close to the vital points in Xia Xiyue's body were drawn out.
Another day, Yuan Zhiqing stood by the bathtub and put his hand on her shoulder.
Under his guidance, the fire essence melted in the medicine bath floated slowly in Xia Xiyue's meridians.After a few breaths, Yuan Zhiqing drew out the fire essence covered with fire poison, put it into a bottle and sealed it.
After hesitating for a moment, he looked down at Xia Xiyue and took his hand again.The spiritual power slowly penetrated, spreading to the hidden meridians commonly used by demon cultivators.
The fire poison itself is extremely destructive to the meridians, and now it is induced by the fire essence that is opposite to Xia Xiyue's attribute. Although the effect is quick, but if it continues, the meridians she uses frequently will collapse sooner or later.
It's better to switch to the demon cultivator technique as soon as possible.
Yuan Zhiqing thought to himself: With the blood of the demon clan, instead of cultivating demons, he went to cultivate immortals. It's like using top-grade wood as firewood, a waste of resources.
Anyway, Xia Xiyue wasn't too old, so she had enough time to change her skills and camp.
...
As Yuan Zhiqing's spiritual power pierced in, the person who was motionless in the bathtub gradually struggled in pain, and the red gold chains on his wrists and neck collided with the medicine soup and made a rattling sound.
Yuan Zhiqing couldn't help but followed the sound to take a look. In his field of vision, the skin was whitened by the brilliant golden light.He was silent for a moment: No wonder Ling Chen insisted on hanging something around Xia Xiyue's neck, maybe it wasn't all for threats, but...
"..."
In the next second, Yuan Zhiqing abruptly stopped his thoughts, feeling dirty: he could actually understand Ling Chen's perverted thoughts?... Tsk, I must have seen too much in Yinxian sect these years, and was polluted by those sanctimonious hypocrites.
Thinking of this, Yuan Zhiqing let out a silent breath, and put all the distracting thoughts out of his mind.He adjusted his thoughts and continued to develop those hidden magic meridians.
...
Xia Xiyue's consciousness was drowsy in the sea of consciousness.
After an unknown period of time, she suddenly felt vaguely that the state of her body seemed to be a little better than before.
Instinctively, she wanted to try to return to her body, but at this moment, suddenly there was another sound of "Du", "Du", it was the kind of pounding sound that she had heard once.
The consciousness that was about to wake up suddenly became clearer.
Xia Xiyue opened her eyes in the sea of consciousness, and was surprised to find that Ling Chen had come again.
She puts people in.Now that he was awake, he gradually felt that something was wrong: Ling Chen seemed to have said that he would come to her, but so far there has been no movement.She thought it was because she hadn't slept for long enough, but now, Ling Chen followed his consciousness again... Could something have changed?Why can't he come over?
Ling Chen faced her uneasy gaze, remained silent for a moment, and calmly turned his face away: "The Demon Sect stone palace I saw earlier was simple in shape, majestic and strange. I thought it was some kind of iconic building,But along the way... the demon cultivator seems to like that style of architecture."
Xia Xiyue nodded while listening, waiting for the next sentence.
However, there was no sound from the other side.
She looked up suspiciously, only to find that Ling Chen was also looking at her, as if there was no more to say.
"...?"
Xia Xiyue had no choice but to re-read what Ling Chen said just now, and she understood slowly: "That is to say, last time you used my body to look outside and thought you knew the location, but when you came to the Demon SectOnly to find that the same building is everywhere, so you can’t find it again?”
Ling Chen turned his eyes away, and nodded slightly after a long while.
In his last life, he never visited the Demon Sect until his "death".Occasionally, the demon cultivators who went to wipe out the crowds also followed the breath to the top of the dense forest and swung their swords down.After Jian Guang was startled, the ground was in a mess. Buildings of any style could only collapse into ruins, piled together with broken branches and leaves, and their shapes could not be distinguished.Coupled with the fact that the wait-and-see time was too short, there was such a stupid mistake.
Although Xia Xiyue didn't know much about the inside story, she guessed the general situation.
Seeing Ling Chen's expression, she wanted to laugh.
But thinking about his multiple mistakes before, he cleared his throat again, and swallowed the ridicule back in his stomach with a good conscience.
Then he pretended that this was normal, and turned over the page solemnly: "If this is the case, let's go out and have a look again? This time I feel a lot better, and I should be able to wake up for a while longer, enough for you to find more clues."
"Yeah." Ling Chen nodded slightly, obviously thinking the same way.
Although the spiritual consciousness of the two can be connected for a short time with the help of the spirit bird, it seems to be in another plane.There was no way to rely on it to capture the exact location of Xia Xiyue.
If the situation is urgent on her side, it is the quickest way to lower her consciousness back to her body to check.
...
Xia Xiyue then prepared to go out.
Speaking of this, in fact, her heart is far from as calm as it looks on the surface: In the last life, this body was captured by Yuan Zhiqing and tortured to death by the Demon Sect.The images left in her mind made her feel a bit shadowy about this demon cultivator undercover.
But after thinking about it, Ling Chen's question just now meant that he had already arrived at the Demon Sect's territory, as long as he got the exact location, it would only take a moment to rush over.
And think about it calmly, she just came to do the task.As for the underground cell, torture to extract a confession, just use it as a scene.
After seeing the surroundings clearly and confirming the location, she immediately returned to the Sea of Consciousness.In this way, even if Yuan Zhiqing beat her to death in the next second, Dracaena in the natal space would not be able to reach him... Anyway, don't panic, it's not a big problem!
Thinking of this, Xia Xiyue forcibly calmed down.She slowly lowered her consciousness, and with a sense of not being afraid of leaving get off work, she was going to return to her body to meet the devil head-on for a while.
...
Consciousness gradually merged with the body, inevitably affected by the latter, and became drowsy again.
There was a burst of warmth all over her body, and Xia Xiyue almost fell asleep again as soon as she returned to her body.She quickly remembered that she had work to do.Gritting his teeth, he opened his eyes with difficulty.
Looking around in a daze, Xia Xiyue was shocked to find that she was soaking in... a pot of soup that exuded the fragrance of herbs and trees.
Feeling it carefully, it seems that there is still a fire burning underneath, and the whole body is so hot that it seems to be burning.
Xia Xiyue was stunned for a second, then her eyes widened suddenly: Yuan Zhiqing, an inhuman lunatic, actually... actually wanted to cook her!!
behind her.
Yuan Zhiqing happened to finish one cycle, and as soon as he withdrew his spiritual power, he found that the person in the tub had woken up.
He looked up at the silver mirror in the corner of the room, and saw Xia Xiyue's frightened expression flashing away from it.
Yuan Zhiqing was a little puzzled.But thinking about the gloomy architectural style here, he laughed happily again.He leaned down on purpose, and his gentle tone brushed against Xia Xiyue's ears like a spring breeze: "Junior Sister has slept for a long time, how do you feel now?"
Although he hasn't completely given up his status as "Yinxian sect disciple", he will definitely not let Xia Xiyue go.Even if she found out about her identity, she still couldn't tell it.
...
In the narrow space created by Yuan Zhiqing's arms, Xia Xiyue was startled by the monster who was so close at hand.Instinctively, she wanted to move away from him, but found that there seemed to be something extremely cold in her hand, which restricted her movement.
Xia Xiyue was stunned, and immediately remembered the ropes that bound hairy crabs when they were boiled, her face turned pale: "Raw cannibalism, you...you are insane!"
What she said was actually a bit false.After all, strictly speaking, she and Yuan Zhiqing might not be of the same race.
"..." But after thinking about it, Yuan Zhiqing didn't know she was a fox, but he actually treated people as ingredients and cooked them in soup...
Yuan Zhiqing was taken aback by her scolding.
After a while, he heard that Xia Xiyue had misunderstood him, and immediately smiled even more happily.
Seeing the girl with fox ears flopping about to stand up from the "vegetable soup", he supported Xia Xiyue's shoulders, pushed her back lightly, and then praised like a cannibal gourmet: "But junior sister looks,Indeed delicious."
While speaking, he felt the terrified fox ears brushing against his cheek, and couldn't help turning his head and blowing his breath.
The ear trembled, and quickly avoided it, and quickly returned to its original position.
"..." Yuan Zhiqing glanced at it, then looked again, but couldn't hold it back, and squeezed it with his hands.
Xia Xiyue shuddered and raised her hand to block it.Almost at the same time, she also suddenly realized something was wrong—there seemed to be something... on top of her head!
She looked down at the water in surprise, the pitch-black soup was like a mirror with ripples, reflecting the prominent pair of fox ears on top of her head.
When felt it carefully, there seemed to be something behind me, and touched it, and touched the tail.
Xia Xiyue: "..."
Xia Xiyue: "???"
It turns out that what Ling Chen said earlier about "wearing the mold" actually meant this?!
No wonder Yuan Zhiqing suddenly wanted to cook her. In this small world, I'm afraid there is no way to protect wild spirit beasts...
Xia Xiyue avoided Yuan Zhiqing's hand in some horror, and instinctively wanted to move away from him, but her wrist was grabbed again, dragged back to its original position and pressed firmly.
She tried to run her spiritual power again, but the frequently used meridian was sealed by the formation as if frozen, and the other meridians were as hot as being on fire, presumably the fire poison had flared up again.
Faced with such a miserable situation where she couldn't escape or fight, Xia Xiyue couldn't help thinking of the plate of squirrel fish that Yuan Zhiqing brought out shortly after meeting Yuan Zhiqing.
At that time, she was eating happily, but who knows that the feng shui will turn, and now it's her turn to serve... never thought that Yuan Zhiqing was such a perverted gourmet.If he had known this before, when the Wufang Secret Realm opened, he should have cried, made trouble and hanged himself to the master, and firmly refused to let him go.It's a pity that things are settled now, and it's too late to regret.
Xia Xiyue: "..." Speaking of which, I don't know where Ling Chen has gone now, and there is no time to fish him out before she becomes familiar.Although she was ready to die and return to the Upper Realm before waking up, the way of dying "being cooked, sliced and served as a dish" was still too heavy for her.
Thinking of his miserable end.Xia Xiyue couldn't help feeling sad, and her dizzy head suddenly became even more dizzy, and she muttered in a low voice, "It's hard to be a human being, why should I be eaten by my own kind?"
Yuan Zhiqing heard it with sharp ears, and a trace of surprise and pity flashed in his eyes: "'You can't eat your own kind', that is to say, in your race, cannibalism is normal?"
