"This is the first time that the empress has been held hostage. Did you hear what that kid said? If we press too hard, I'm afraid the dog will jump over the wall and the words will become a prophecy, and no one among us will survive!"
"Should we let it go?"
"I'll just follow you from a distance, and hurry up to inform Master Gray Eyes and the Protector of Hot Hell!"
"Chase!"
…
The young scribe did not catch up, because he was the only one who understood that the beautiful woman was by no means a lamb to be slaughtered. He was waiting for someone. Not long after, he saw a person rushing towards her from the southeast, it was Russell Jing.
"How is it?" the young scribe asked hurriedly.
"Tongba does not compromise, so I have been hit by his 'Soutianhundi Evil-dispelling Knife'. The sword energy entered my body and rushed to attack the inner elixir. Even if my killing is extraordinary, even if I take the spirit-gathering pill, it will take at least seven days." Only then can you recover." When Russell Jing said this, he asked the young scribe: "How are you doing here?"
"The progress is going very smoothly. Your Majesty has succeeded. Your news came in time. Li Xiu must have found out the origin of my peak and was afraid, so he escaped from my peak. As expected, he has swallowed the poison. Drinking the wine of soul-eating water and rushing on the road, the poisonous gas will quickly attack his heart. Soon Li Xiu will surrender at the feet of the empress and beg the empress for the antidote. Not only will he tell the empress everything he knows, but he will also have no choice but to let the empress do whatever he wants. It will be a great cauldron to replenish his pure yang energy. The empress will stay young forever and her skills will increase dramatically, but he will be worse off than dead!" the young scribe laughed.
Russell Jing said: "Humph, you deserve it! The image of Grand View becomes the pure land, and the unhappy place is hell. The world only knows that the Grand View country was defeated and the country was defeated, and the national teachers fled in embarrassment, but they have no idea that the original Grand View is what it is today. I am unhappy, becoming a Buddha with one thought and becoming a devil with one thought. Only demonic power can conquer the world. Now that the empress has achieved great success, even Xinluohe may not be her opponent. That boy is finished. Hehe, it's a pity that I can't witness his end with my own eyes. !”
The soles of Li Xiu's feet were spinning, and he was heading south with lightning speed. He wanted to rush out of the Beiming Sea in one breath, settle down the tigers, and then make plans. I think he is also a person who hates evil. When has he ever suffered such a boring loss along the way? , every step is being calculated by others. This feeling is not pleasant, and he feels very unhappy. However, he has not figured it out yet, why does this beautiful woman plot against him?
He never imagined that this was caused by his pure Yang Qi.
Just as he was speeding through the forest for five to six hundred miles, he suddenly stumbled, his true energy was disordered, and his heart was in severe pain!
"No, why have I been poisoned?" Li Xiu was shocked. What kind of poison was it? Not only was it colorless and odorless, it actually made his inner alchemy fall silent, and his soul trembled, as if he was about to leave the body and die in the next moment. Even though he had superb medical skills, for a while, He was also helpless. He suddenly recalled the faint orchid fragrance wafting from the red sedan chair and the sip of wine he drank. He immediately understood what was going on. It turned out that the poison in the wine needed medicine to induce its effect. , that orchid-like fragrance is just the medicine!
"This woman is unfathomable. I was lucky enough to capture her. I should kill her!" Li Xiu also understood something at the same time, and his murderous intention aroused. But at this moment, his head was buzzing and almost about to explode. Xiu finally found it difficult to hold on, and with a heavy groan, he fell down from the top of the tree!
What made Li Xiu desperate was that he was on a mountain ridge at this time, with the edge of the cliff at his feet. Li Xiu tried his best to protect Hu Zi, but had to abandon the beautiful woman. He picked up the only trace of true energy left in his body and lifted his feet. He stepped on a branch, but at this time he was unable to follow up. The weight of the two people and the force of the fall made the branch overwhelmed. With a crack, the branch broke and the two people fell down the cliff together.
The beautiful woman was thrown down by Li Xiu and hit hard to the ground. At this time, she could not lift even half of her true energy to protect her body. She was thrown to pieces with broken bones and tendons, and all her internal organs were displaced. At this time, the corner of her mouth
She was bleeding and in a state of embarrassment. She was so angry in her heart that her face was twisted in pain. That damn boy didn't want to go on land, but wanted to fly through the forest. This was something she had not thought of beforehand.
But the strange thing is that because of this blow, she could move her left hand slowly. After a while, her left hand regained some strength. This was one of the four meridians that she used to seal Li Xiu with the help of external force.
He had to loosen his grip and slowly use his inner energy to supplement it. After a while, his left hand could be waved freely, and he had released the four restraints on his own. The beautiful woman's true energy surged, knocking the four silver needles sealing the acupuncture points to the ground.
"What a cunning boy. He was able to see my flaws and his method of banning me was quite unique. It's a pity that you fell into my soul-eating water. Even if you don't escape from my grasp, you can't escape."
The beautiful woman took out a red elixir from her arms and swallowed it, quickly recovering from her injuries. But it was not enough. She opened her arms, her whole body shook slightly, and then inhaled hard. In an instant, all the trees within a ten-foot radius were covered.
All the essence of the flowers and plants gathered into two streams of air, which were inhaled into her body at once, leaving only wither in a radius of ten feet. After absorbing the essence, the beautiful woman became three points full of energy. It seemed that there was still something missing. When she opened her eyes
, feeling that there was movement not far behind her, her face was expressionless, and her body swayed, leaving an afterimage on the spot. There was a swordsman in white who was running away quickly. At this time, his face was pale with fear, and he only saw a shadow.
A white shadow flashed past, and the beautiful woman appeared in front of him.
"Jinquzi, where are you going?" the beautiful woman asked calmly.
The white-clothed swordsman Jin Quzi pretended to be calm and said: "Now that your Majesty has escaped from that boy's clutches, I can rest assured. It's already late at night, how about I escort you back?"
"Really?" the beautiful woman said, "When I fell into that kid's hands, I didn't see you being so loyal."
It turns out that when Li Xiu kicked over the table and held the beautiful woman hostage, the swordsman in white was the third person who decisively retreated. Unexpectedly, it turned out that he had already been resented. Jin Quzi had just witnessed her again.
The entire process of using magic power to wither a ten-foot-square area in an instant was now known to be extremely difficult. He stopped answering, but he was decisive. I saw him holding his fingers together, lowering his head and arching his back, with a long sword on his back.
With a choking sound, the flying sword turned into a rainbow and pointed directly at the throat of the beautiful woman.
"It's a small skill, but your old ghost master can't take my three moves." The beautiful woman took a step forward gently, like a breeze, her movements were very gentle, she casually swept away the flying sword with a palm, and drove straight in, her five fingers became claws, and she didn't let it go at all.
If the opponent has any chance to dodge or resist, he grabs his face and sucks in suddenly!
"Ah!" Jin Quzi screamed, all the energy in his body was lost in an instant, and the muscles in his body atrophied rapidly. In the blink of an eye, only bones and human skin were left. Under the wave of the beautiful woman's hand, the human skin turned into dust,
It dissipated in the wind, leaving only a withered skeleton.
After the essence entered the body, the beautiful woman immediately became full of energy, no longer lingering, and rushed towards the mountains. She would not give up easily for a unique cauldron like Li Xiu. She would live to see people and die to die.
See the corpse!
Li Xiu stepped on a branch and fell down the cliff with Hu Zi. He had never been to this place and was not familiar with the terrain at all. At this time, his spirit was listless, his head was about to explode, his inner alchemy was silent, and he fell into a kind of coma.
In this state, the wind was rumbling in his ears, and his body was still falling rapidly. Gradually, he heard someone calling. Li Xiu opened his eyelids, and it turned out that it was Huzi shouting for help.
"Huh?" Li Xiu came back to his senses. His strong desire to survive made him gather some strength. He found the Huanshou knife on his waist and plunged it into the cliff. The huge falling force was definitely not what Li Xiu felt.
The current state was bearable. He could barely hold on for a few breaths. Seeing that he was about to lose it, Li Xiu sighed and said miserably: "Huzi, I didn't expect that we lost our lives here... you... look at this cliff.
There isn't even a tree on the ground... Soon we will be shattered to pieces. Alas, I am a person who should not exist in this world. If I die, I will die. But Huzi, you are still young... But I have suffered terrible consequences.
"It's over..." Before he could finish his words, it was difficult to hold on. As soon as his hands were loosened, the two of them fell down again!
Huzi almost cried. When had he ever seen Li Xiu look like this? He didn't say anything during the whole journey. He didn't want Li Xiu to be distracted. Huzi closed his eyes tightly and hugged Li Xiu tightly.
They were all trembling, but at this moment they finally spoke, but they were extremely firm: "We won't die, Brother Li, I just saw a river below!"
"Oh?" Li Xiu didn't have time to look or speak, because at this time it was already the bottom, and with a bang, the two of them fell down hard!
The imaginary sound of falling water did not appear. Li Xiu was very surprised. He felt that he was not broken into pieces. There was only darkness in front of him, all darkness. Where did the tiger go? Li Xiu didn't know, he only knew that he was not dead yet.
But so what? Is all this what he wants? Who is Huzi? He doesn't want to know at this moment. He doesn't know if it's because of the attack of the soul-eating water, but Li Xiu feels irritated and lonely like never before.
Why did I come to such a strange world? He asked himself this again. He was very confused and fell into deep thinking. Xingkong survived the disaster and came to a strange world. Li Xiu was not a qualified starry sky predator.
He has not robbed anyone in this world. On the contrary, he has helped some people. But why is this happening? He can't figure out why he has ended up in this situation.
"Did I do something wrong?" He was asking himself, but a voice in his heart told him that he was not wrong.
"Did I do the right thing?" He became more and more confused because the other person was telling him that he had done the wrong thing again.
After a long time, Li Xiu laughed again. Wrong and right are like good and evil. It is a false proposition in itself, just like chicken and egg. It makes no sense to dwell on it.
Li Xiu has never been a pessimistic person, and he soon understood. At this moment, he truly understood the three realms mentioned by Wu Daozi: "holding the self, understanding the self, and losing the self." Even if the heart is like a mirror,
It is inevitable to be contaminated by the dust again. Because the mind has its own nature, the state of Mingwu cannot understand the true self. It is necessary to reach the state of bereavement to find the true meaning. Now Li Xiu also understands that he is far away from the level of spiritual silence.
There is still a certain gap. Ling Jie cannot be explained literally. Instead, it hides a meaning of cultivation, which is to let the soul return to cessation. The Dharma obtained is the true Dharma. If a person can't even be in cessation.
I still don’t understand anything, why give up, and what will I use to lose myself? According to Li Xiu’s inference, once you reach that state, the inner elixir will also disappear, the physical body will also disappear, and then a soul will appear.
Three flowers gather at the top, replacing the thoughts at the moment, getting rid of the shackles of the body, and being able to photograph objects from a distance. It may not be possible to move mountains and fill seas, but it is almost possible.
It should be noted that all things have spirituality, and human beings are the most important. Once human wisdom is extinguished by the emptiness of truth and falsehood, then wisdom will naturally cease to exist. At that time, wisdom can no longer be called human wisdom, but the Tao. To a certain extent
, human wisdom is all acquired, and it obscures the authenticity of Tao. It is all due to personal insight. Being able to discover many mysteries is great wisdom, and being able to get rid of it completely is the true self. Li Xiu even deduced that once the realm is reached
After the soul is silent, the Nascent Soul that is rejuvenated is just another name. Because at that time, people can live according to the trajectory of the stars, or they can be like flowers, plants and trees, truly follow their own desires, harmonize their body and Tao, rejuvenate themselves, and even
It is a very common thing to be as big or small as you like and ever-changing.
Suddenly there was a trace of moonlight in the darkness. Under the dim moonlight, a small hand suddenly appeared in Li Xiu's sight, interrupting his thoughts. Hu Zi's rapid breathing also reached Li Xiu's ears. Hu Zi finally finally
I found Li Xiu, grinning stupidly.
This silly smile, at this moment, made Li Xiu have the urge to cry, but Li Xiu did not cry. The confident smile on his face reappeared at the corner of his mouth, and the hazy stars and moon were reflected in his eyes. He was very rich.
With strong contagion, he smiled softly and said: "Huzi, I am poisonous, so you don't need to pay attention to me yet."
