Chapter 86: The Mystery of the Demon Rune Species (1)
It has actually been three days...
Lin Xin's heart sank. He had never been unconscious for so long.
"Put me down... don't worry about me. You can go up alone and find the teacher and come down to save me..."
"No!" Xiao Lingling flatly refused.
Lin Xin felt a faint warmth flowing through his heart.
"You don't have to..."
"It's okay with me!" Xiao Lingling turned around and showed a bright smile.
Only then did Lin Xin vaguely see that there seemed to be a bloody wound on the side of her left cheek facing away from him.
"your face..."
"It's just a small wound. I just ignored it and it bled a lot..." Xiao Lingling quickly turned around and said a little unnaturally.
"Brother Lin, don't worry, I will definitely be able to get you out of here. For sure!"
Lin Xin was silent.
He knew that Xiao Lingling might have encountered some things that she had not said in the past two days. As for what she encountered, perhaps only she herself knew.
She carried Lin Xin on her back and walked step by step through the gaps between the stone pillars in the square. Her steps were a little difficult, but extremely determined.
"Brother Lin... I, Xiao Lingling, have spent a lot of money on you this time, right? If you can't get through this difficulty, then I will really lose everything." She joked with a smile, as she walked away
, while panting and talking.
"My mother is a businessman. Although her reputation was not very good in the past, she relied on her beauty to deal with many big businessmen and officials, but she taught me many things about doing business. Brother Lin, do you want to hear it?"
Lin Xin showed a smile, and his mood became more and more peaceful.
"What's the point? Tell me..."
Xiao Lingling smiled and thought about it slowly.
"My mother said... When you are a person and do things, you should be like those high-ranking officials and generals fighting... Use your spare abilities to help others, and go where they are when they are weakest and most in need of help.
Only by helping others can you get the greatest reward." Xiao Lingling took a few breaths and seemed a little tired.
"But... what's more important is that if you receive help from others when you are weak... and receive help when you need it the most, then you must give him or her the best of your ability in return.
...In this case...if others hear about it, they will be willing to lend a helping hand when you need it." Xiao Lingling temporarily put Lin Xin down to rest and wiped it with her dirty and yellow sleeves.
sweat.
"It makes sense...your mother is very powerful..." Lin Xin smiled softly.
"Yeah...I think so too." A sweet smile appeared on Xiao Lingling's dirty cheeks.
"However, my family is in trouble now... Since my mother passed away, all of them hate me. My father married another young and beautiful concubine, and all the property my mother left behind was given to them.
"
She took out a handkerchief that had been rubbed to yellow, rinsed it with water from the water bag, and began to wipe Lin Xin's face.
"Later, I was forced to have no choice. Fortunately, one of my mother's former suitors, my uncle, saw that I was pitiful, so in response to my request, he found connections and sent me to the Pine Forest Sword Sect. He was a good man... and
Adopted my sister... Otherwise, my sister is not qualified enough to come with us, and if she stays there, I'm afraid she will have to suffer a lot..."
She unconsciously fell into memories.
"You are also living a hard life..." Lin Xin sighed. "That's right...it's not because of life. You are such a beautiful little girl, and your personality is not the type to devote yourself to spiritual practice. How could you be willing to do this?
He came from far away to join a cruel sect like the Pine Forest Sword Sect."
"It's okay, actually..." Xiao Lingling smiled, took back the handkerchief, and poured water to wash it. "I just thought that if one day I can break through the cultivation level and enter the innate world, I can become a master after leaving the sect.
, I can go back and pick up my sister, and we can live a good life with that uncle together. Let all the people in the family who look down on me shut up."
Lin Xin was silent.
He himself relied on Yin blood and other treasures to break through quickly, but he failed to understand the feelings of these lowest-level disciples with mediocre qualifications.
"How long do you have now until you can break through the second level?"
"Me?" Xiao Lingling was stunned, "I'm not a genius like Brother Lin... The second level... I guess it will take a long, long time..."
She smiled bitterly.
"Since I joined the sect, my cultivation has only improved a little bit in the past year..."
"Genius..." Lin Xin was speechless. What kind of genius was he? He simply relied on the secret treasure to rush forward.
The Yin Blood and the Human Face Fruit, both of which are not high-end treasures that even the innate disciples are extremely thirsty for, were swallowed by him, and he has barely entered the fourth level of innateness until now. If a normal disciple with such resources is replaced, he would probably reach the sixth level.
All possible.
"You can reach the innate realm in one year. Brother Lin, you are not a genius, so who else counts?" Xiao Lingling said with a smile, "Of course the Dugu siblings don't count."
Lin Xin couldn't help but laugh too. Yes, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is not a genius, who else can.
After resting for a while, Lin Xin felt a little tired again, so Xiao Lingling continued to carry him on her back.
Fortunately, the disguised monster in this square seems to have been eliminated, and Song Jing, who pretended to be framed by Lin Xin, also died under Lin Xin's sword.
There is no danger in the square.
Xiao Lingling left the square step by step and climbed onto the huge hanging plate suspended over the abyss.
The stone plate is still the same, and the dense black chains around it extend upwards, all the way to the invisible dark cave roof.
Like a huge stone weighing pan.
Xiao Lingling used her inner energy to relieve her tired legs from time to time. Fortunately, she was also a master of internal medicine. Although her physical fitness was about the same as that of ordinary people, she had the help of frequent bursts of inner energy and her physical strength was not bad.
It's just that Xiao Lingling had suffered severe injuries to her lower abdominal internal organs before, so it was still a little difficult to walk.
Slowly walked past the stone plate and climbed onto the mountain path embedded in the stone wall of the abyss.
"Brother Lin, do you know who the woman in red is who hurt you?" Xiao Lingling asked.
"I don't know..." Lin Xin shook his head slightly, "But I guess... it may be the demon cultivator in this cave, the Witch of the Red Mansion."
"The Red Mansion? It's very famous in Prince Yu's Palace..." Xiao Lingling was stunned and a little moved.
"How do you say that?" Lin Xin was born in a small place. Hongsong City was isolated and remote, and the information was far less knowledgeable than Xiao Lingling, who was born in the heart of a big country.
"A branch of the Southern Suzaku Holy Court is a sworn enemy of our four sects. The Red Mansion has a very bad reputation in the mortal world because most of its disciples are women and they like to kill ordinary people to suck their essence." Xiao Lingling explained.
"That witch should be the target of Xiao Sixiu's trial. I just don't know how to let her escape." Lin Xin guessed.
"The goals of the four innate Dzogchen..." Xiao Lingling felt a little out of reach. That kind of top-level existence actually had a little bit to do with her. She felt a little unreal.
"Okay, we're already here. We're almost at the exit. Let's have something to eat before we leave." Xiao Lingling took out the fire-making tool from the package.
It was difficult for her to carry Lin Xin alone, and she also had to carry two people's baggage. The two packages were combined and hung on her shoulders, which was about the same size as carrying a quilt.
Lin Xin watched her busy, lighting a fire, cooking soup, and then tore off the bread and put it into the soup until soft. He also took out the bamboo tube containing the Du Shi Dan. From time to time, he hurriedly fiddled with the burning bonfire.
He suddenly felt an unusual sense of tranquility in his heart.
"By the way, how is your injury?" he asked.
"Injury? That injury has healed long ago." Xiao Lingling smiled and said naturally.
"Really?" Lin Xin asked doubtfully.
"Don't worry." Xiao Lingling replied with a smile.
She raised her head and looked at the darkness that could barely see the end of the mountain road diagonally above. She had encountered the huge rooster on this mountain road in Shanghai, and she didn't know if she would encounter it again when she went back.
"Let's hit the road after eating." She felt the pain in her lower abdomen getting more and more painful, and she gently covered her abdomen with her hand, "Brother Lin, I'm going to freshen up and I'll be back soon."
"Well..." Lin Xin's vision was not very clear. Although he had recovered a lot, his energy was a little insufficient and he didn't notice anything strange about her. He put his hand into the skin bag and wanted to search again to see if there was any healing medicine, but he couldn't.
I accidentally came across that strange piece of metal.
He carefully took out the metal piece and recalled the thing's official name.
"The demon talisman... I don't know what it does."
He thought for a moment and slowly painted the metal block with his own blood. Now he could squeeze out a lot of blood from any wound. According to the pattern on the blood sacrifice, he painted it three times in a row before he successfully painted it all.
Then throw the demon talisman seeds into the bonfire.
After Xiao Lingling got up, she walked behind a raised stone on the mountain wall.
He untied his clothes and stretched his hands under his body. When he looked at his hands again, they were covered with dark red blood stains.
Waves of severe cramping pain continued to sweep from her abdomen to her whole body. Xiao Lingling gritted her teeth and endured it. Lin Xin used up all the Ganlin Talismans. She started to use a few of them herself, just to stabilize the injury, and later she carried Lin Xin with heavy loads and ran away.
, hiding and hiding along the way, they were frightened and suffered a lot. They didn't dare to close their eyes when they were resting, for fear that someone would find them in a surprise attack.
Without getting a good rest, the injury gradually worsened, and the pain occurred every one or two hours in the past two days.
She carefully wiped away the blood with the bandage used to treat the injury. Xiao Lingling waited until the pain gradually eased, then returned to the fire, found some medicine to stop the bleeding and took it. Although the effect was minimal due to a serious lack of rest,
better than nothing.
Just as she sat down, she looked at Lin Xinzheng, who was playing with something in the fire with a thick branch.
"Brother Lin?"
"It's okay." Lin Xin smiled at her.
In the field of vision that others could not see, in his eyes, the light red color of the attribute bar was now integrated with the bonfire.
in his field of vision.
The demon talisman that was being burned in the bonfire was emitting traces of scarlet smoke.
The smoke floated towards his mouth and nose, and automatically got into his mouth and nose.
Lin Xin breathed in the smoke gently, and a strong sense of relief spread throughout his body.
Snapped.
Suddenly there was a soft sound.
Lin Xin suddenly woke up from the feeling of relief, and immediately saw a change that made him ecstatic.
The attribute bar in the field of vision actually had a few extra attributes out of thin air!
"It's actually an attribute point!?" Lin Xin couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart.
This is not only the key to his extra attributes, but more importantly, he may have found another way to obtain attribute points besides improving his inner energy!
"If I'm not wrong, the demon talisman species... should devour other people's souls, and then convert them into energy similar to attribute points through sacrificial rituals! For people to suck."
Lin Xin recalled the scroll he had seen about the demon talisman. He went to look for the demon talisman in the fire, but couldn't find it.
"In this way, I can collect a large number of demon talismans and then hunt the souls of masters to get more attribute points!" Lin Xin felt a faint excitement in his heart. The role of attribute points has been verified, and it is not just about improving
You can also upgrade your magic weapon to achieve a stronger amplification effect.
If he has enough attribute points, Lin Xin himself can't even imagine what level his strength can reach!
