Chapter 857: Flesh as a Boat
"Who knows."
Ning Jiang smiled and did not answer Qian Yexue's question directly. She was as smart as Qian Yexue, so she naturally guessed that Ning Jiang should know some secrets, but she couldn't continue to ask what Ning Jiang didn't say.
"What a pity."
Qian Yexue is still a little reluctant to leave the dragon blood grass. This precious medicine is really rare.
"This is!"
Suddenly, on the cliff, the green-haired claws that Qian Yexue had seen before appeared again. The green-haired claws grabbed the dragon blood grass and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but be glad that Ning Jiang reminded her, otherwise she would have encountered an unexpected situation.
"This is the second time you have saved me." Qian Yexue said gratefully. If it weren't for Ning Jiang, she would have died by the river. In this ghost place, she could not even use her cultivation level. Once she encountered danger, she would be alive without death.
"If this place is full of curses, can't anything from this place be taken out?" Qian Yexue asked.
"This is not absolute. If you want to take away the things here, as long as you can give other things and make a deal with the no-man's land, once the contract is reached, you can take away the things here."
Ningjiang said, "There is a law that can be given and gained, this is an iron rule here."
Qian Yexue was shocked and said curiously: "If it were the Heavenly Lord and the Great Emperor, would they have to make a transaction if they wanted to take away the things here?"
"With the strength of the Heavenly Lord, I am not qualified to force the things here." Ning Jiang shook his head and said, "If the Emperor says, he has this strength, but the Emperor will not do this."
"Why?"
"It's very simple. The emperor will disappear one day!" Ning Jiang said slowly, "When the emperor is alive, the No Man's Land may not be able to do anything to the Emperor, but once the Emperor dies, the Taoist priests he left behind will be revenge from the No Man's Land."
After hearing these words, Qian Yexue became more and more curious about what this no man’s land was like.
It sounds like the no man’s land is more than just a land. Here, it seems like something terrible is hidden. Otherwise, how can you take revenge?
On the next journey, they saw many treasure medicines, including the King of Medicine and even the Holy Medicine, but they could only watch these priceless treasure medicines from afar.
"How far is it from the place you mentioned now?" Qian Yexue asked. She didn't know what kind of place the forbidden place Ning Jiang mentioned was, and whether there was any amazing luck there?
Generally speaking, the more dangerous the place, there are often some earth-shaking treasures.
"We have probably walked about one percent of the way now." Ning Jiang's words made Qian Yexue open his beautiful eyes wide, unable to believe that they have been walking for almost a day so far.
Doesn’t this mean that they will have to walk at least for a few more months?
“How many months do we have to walk here?”
"It will be three or five months, and it will be more than half a year." Ning Jiang glanced at Qian Yexue and said lightly, "Why, do you feel that it is like an ordinary person after not having the cultivation level?"
"There are some." Qian Yexue admitted frankly.
If your cultivation is still there and you can fly, you can arrive in just a few days. Once you become a warrior, you will become a mortal, which is like falling down from the clouds.
"Adjusting your mentality is a valuable experience that will play a huge role in your future growth." Ning Jiang smiled faintly, neither arrogant nor impatient.
Next, for a whole month, Qian Yexue followed Ning Jiang and walked into the uninhabited area. During this month, the two of them walked and stopped, but Ning Jiang didn't care. He was tenacious and would not feel any fatigue no matter how long he walked.
Qian Yexue felt a little uncomfortable. She had never been like an ordinary mortal like she is now.
However, Qian Yexue is a proud daughter after all, so she quickly adjusted her mentality and regarded this journey as a kind of tempering for herself.
Time passed, soon, three months later.
On this day, a surging river appeared in front of Ningjiang and Qian Yexue. The big river was unknown how wide it was, and there was no sight on the other side. A layer of fog was filled with the surface of the river, which seriously obstructed the view.
"We're going to cross the river?"
Qian Yexue frowned. After three months, she became much more calm.
But there is still a considerable psychological shadow about this kind of river. After all, when she first came in, she encountered a small river and was deeply impressed by the green hair claws that appeared in that river.
That small river is so terrible. There is such a big river in front of me, and I don’t know what dangers there will be inside.
"Yes, we have to cross the river, but if we want to cross the river, we need a boat." Ning Jiang said mysteriously, and Qian Yexue was stunned: "Where are ships coming from here? You can't cut down trees to build ships, right?"
Everything here is cursed, cutting down trees and building ships is almost unrealistic unless they have a way to resist the curse.
"What do you think is the most important thing for a person?" Ning Jiang asked.
Qian Yexue thought for a while and said, "Soul, for humans, anything can be abandoned, but once the soul is lost, it is true death."
"Smart, soul is the most important thing." Ning Jiang looked at Qian Yexue with appreciation, "and our body is the ship used to carry souls!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Yexue's pretty face changed and she already knew what Ning Jiang meant: "Can you really work with your body as a boat?"
It is too risky to take your body as a boat. If green-haired claws appear in this river, wouldn’t it be a dead end?
"Is it OK? Just try it and go."
Ning Jiang said, and stepped directly into the river. After walking a few steps, he was flooded by the river. Qian Yexue bit her silver teeth and followed her. She had already walked here, and she could not retreat.
And there is no way out. Once Ningjiang is gone, she will never be able to get out of here.
As soon as he entered the river, Qian Yexue saw green hair claws appearing from all directions. These green hair claws were extremely strange and surrounded her.
"Don't be afraid, it's just some resentful spirits. They have lost their physical body and fallen here forever. As long as you are not shaken, just resentful spirits will not hurt you!"
Ningjiang's voice came, extremely firm.
Qian Yexue's heart was condensed. The three-month journey made her feel much more determined. At this moment, she calmed down and followed Ning Jiang and stepped forward.
When those green claws touched her body, a layer of white light automatically emitted from her body, bounced all of them away.
"Is this the power of the ship?" Qian Yexue was surprised.
"Yes, our body is still there, and we have a escort ship, but they don't, so it's impossible for us to hurt." Ning Jiang said.
