Zhang Xiaofan looked at the bead for a long time, and his breathing gradually calmed down. But except that the color and brightness were a little different, he couldn't see anything else, so he had to put it back on his chest. He looked at Tian Linger beside him,
She was still unconscious, but her face was gradually turning red and her condition was much better.
He picked up the amber scarlet silk and looked at it carefully. This was the first time he looked at this treasure so close, but he felt that the tentacles were soft and very comfortable. He recalled the graceful way Tian Linger walked in the air just now.
The figure made me feel envious.
He watched for a while, then made gestures with his hands like Tian Linger did, and shouted: "Get up!"
The amber and scarlet silk is like a dead snake, paying no attention to it or moving.
"Chi chi chi chi", but the gray monkey on the side covered his belly with his hands, fell to the ground, and laughed endlessly.
Zhang Xiaofan glared at it, but he felt a bit more cordial with the monkey just now through the difficulties, and any previous hostility disappeared. He stuck out his tongue at the monkey and made a face, ignored it, and put the amber
Zhu Ling placed her next to Tian Linger and looked at the pool in the open space.
It was a small pool, not very large, with no source visible. It was probably formed by an underground spring. The water in the pool was green, and you couldn't tell how deep it was from here. There was a gap in the west of the pool, and the water flowed out from there, forming a small stream.
Winding away.
In the center of the pool, there is a pile of rubble of different sizes and shapes, with a small part exposed on the water. Among the rocks, a short black stick is inserted diagonally, one foot above the water, and the rest is immersed in the water.
In the water, it was completely black and you couldn't tell what material it was made of. It was very ugly.
Zhang Xiaofan didn't take it seriously. He just felt that this place was weird and unusual, so it was better to leave early. However, although Tian Linger beside him had calmed down, he was still unconscious and could not wake up no matter how he screamed. In contrast, the gray monkey
But he was very energetic, scratching his ears and cheeks, scratching for lice, and couldn't calm down for a moment. He even ran into the woods from time to time, picked a few wild fruits from somewhere, threw two to Zhang Xiaofan, and then sat down by himself.
Got to the ground and ate with relish.
Zhang Xiaofan picked up the wild fruit and took a bite. He felt that it was sweet and juicy in his mouth, and he couldn't help but whet his appetite. He went up the mountain in the early morning and chased all the way. It was almost noon, and he had not drunk any water, so he was already hungry. He ate one in two bites.
, just as he was about to pick up the second one, he suddenly shook his head again and gently placed it next to Tian Linger.
After eating the wild fruits, Zhang Xiaofan felt less hungry and felt much better. He stood up, stretched, and looked around. He saw ancient trees and gurgling streams, and the scenery was quite beautiful. Who knew?
I knew it would be so weird.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a heat in his chest. For a moment, he only heard a few muffled sounds of "ka ka ka", as if something was breaking. He was taken aback, and quickly took out the bead from his chest, and was immediately frightened.
Jumping, I saw the whole bead was filled with green light, and the green energy inside was like a wolf and a tiger, desperately hitting the bead wall, and the "卐" mantra that stopped it became more and more fragile, became more and more bleak, and was about to be unable to withstand it.
Little did Zhang Xiaofan know that this seemingly ordinary bead was actually the most dangerous thing in the world - the "blood-devouring bead". The origin of this bead is unknown, but it has strange properties. It likes to feed on the blood of living beings.
Any living creature that comes close to it will be sucked away by this "blood-eating bead" within a few seconds and die, leaving only a skin. It is really a terrifying evil thing. More than a thousand years ago, this bead was used by the devil to teach
The elder Black-hearted Old Man obtained it and refined it into a magic weapon due to its ability to absorb essence and corrode blood. He was invincible for a while and killed countless righteous people. His reputation was so great that he later became one of the four treasures of the Demon Sect. After the Black-hearted Old Man died,
The pearl disappeared and has been nowhere to be found since.
By chance, the divine monk Puzhi of Tianyin Temple accidentally discovered this ominous bead in the western swamp thirty years ago. At that time, within a radius of ten miles, there were many bones and no living creatures. It can be said that all life was devastated and resentment was soaring.
The compassionate heart of Universal Wisdom was greatly moved, so he put it away with the Buddhist magic weapon. After that, he performed the Buddhist secret method of subduing demons on it every night to deter the evil forces. This was done without interruption for thirty years. He also used the Buddhist treasure "Emerald" on it.
"rosary beads" were hung in parallel, using their pure energy to resist the blood-eating evil thoughts, and finally suppressed the evil spirit, tightly bound it in the beads, and could not see the light of day under the layers of Buddha's power.
Unexpectedly, during the battle in Caomiao Village, Puzhi was seriously injured by the mysterious man in black, and almost ran out of gas. Although the man in black was also injured and escaped, Puzhi knew that he had not seriously injured him, and he expected that he would be against the "blood-devouring man".
He was determined to get the "blood-devouring pearl". After taking the "three-day death pill", he could only extend his life for three days. With a thought, he took the risk and handed the blood-devouring pearl to Zhang Xiaofan, and told him not to show it in front of others.
Kong then threw him off the cliff of the deep valley. Although he might hurt some innocent creatures, it was much better than falling into the hands of the demon.
It's just that Pu Zhi never expected that Zhang Xiaofan, thinking of his kindness, actually kept this dangerous thing as a souvenir. This "blood-eating bead" lost Pu Zhi and suppressed it with Buddhist medicine, and it is not as pure as the jade rosary.
After resisting the aura, the evil spirit began to gradually erode the restrictions. But Tianyin Temple's demon-conquering master did not take it easy. Although the numerous restrictions lost their master, they have been loyal to their duties and frightened the evil spirit for three whole days.
Years. But as time goes by, I can no longer resist it, and gradually I am unable to do what I want. Today, it is about to be broken out by the blood-eating ferocious bead, causing harm to the world.
Although Zhang Xiaofan didn't know about these many twists and turns, he already felt something bad in his heart. In the battle at Cao Temple, when Pu Zhi was fighting with the man in black, the "Swastika" mantra appeared many times. Even though he was young, he remembered it deeply. At this moment
Seeing that the situation of the mantra on the bead was getting more and more critical, he felt anxious in his heart, and with a cruel heart, he clenched his palms and grabbed the bead, and poured his little bit of crude "Great Brahma Prajna" into the bead.
The two have the same origin, and the "卐" mantra on the blood-devouring bead actually lit up a lot, but before Zhang Xiaofan could show his smile, it dimmed again instantly, and at the same time, a cold aura invaded his body.
Within the body, half of Zhang Xiaofan's body became numb for a moment.
The gray monkey next to him suddenly saw the pain on Zhang Xiaofan's face, and his face was full of green energy. He called out "Zhi Zhi" twice and was quite anxious. But Zhang Xiaofan couldn't care about anything anymore, he just felt that all the blood and essence in his body was flowing backwards.
All flowed in the direction of the strange bead on his right hand. However, the Brahma Prajna in his body collapsed at the first touch, and was no match for the cold air. At this time, the meridians all over his body spasmed in severe pain, and he was in excruciating pain.
He couldn't bear it any longer, staggered a few steps, and stepped back. Suddenly his whole body trembled again, and a familiar feeling of nausea returned, rushing straight into his five organs. However, he accidentally wandered into the open space again.
, but at this moment, there is no longer any resistance to the warmth.
The gray monkey was so anxious that it kept chirping "Zhi Zhi Zhi Zhi", but it did not dare to step into the open space no matter what.
Zhang Xiaofan was so overwhelmed that he was at a loss. However, he felt cold and hot in his body, like being gnawed by thousands of ants. He felt nauseous and wanted to vomit, but the food was disgusting. It was really worse than death. His consciousness gradually became blurred, and he stumbled forward.
But he had no idea that he had gone in the wrong direction, and he felt that all his strength was gradually disappearing.
His whole body was shaking, his hands and feet were weak, his feet were weak, and he sat paralyzed on the ground. At this time, he had reached the edge of the pool. He used his last effort to use the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao, and managed to attract some of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his body.
After entering the body and transforming into Brahma Prajna, the pain was relieved a little, but after a moment, it had already turned into nothing. Zhang Xiaofan couldn't care about so much at this time, and tried his best to do whatever he could to relieve himself. But that's all.
The cold air was too strong, and there was a strange nauseating feeling. It almost turned his insides and rushed straight to his forehead. Stars flashed in front of his eyes, his breathing was disordered, and suddenly there was a sweet feeling in his throat, and he said "Wow"
, a large mouthful of blood spurted out, and Xianxuan fainted.
At this moment, there was only a muffled sound, and in an instant, it seemed as if the sky had darkened. The blue light on the blood-devouring bead shone brightly, and the entire bead turned blue. A dim golden light flashed by, and the Buddhist mantra "Swastika" was
Completely shattered, Zhang Xiaofan's whole body was immediately enveloped in green energy, like a bloodthirsty demon, reborn again.
However, the strange thing was not over yet. Almost at the same time that Qingqi regained its freedom, a loud noise came from the middle of the pool. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and the gravel in the pool shot out in all directions, making a loud banging sound. The water in the green pool suddenly turned violent.
Waves arose, spinning rapidly around the center, forming a large vortex. In the whirlpool, something slowly emerged from the gap in the water, filled with black steam. It was the black short stick, two feet tall.
It is long, neither gold nor iron, and a fierce aura rushes towards the face.
Zhang Xiaofan yelled and fell backwards. The blood-devouring bead seemed to be stuck in the palm of his hand and could not be shaken off. He could also faintly see a faint blood slowly pouring into the bead from Zhang Xiaofan's body.
With a roar, amidst the sound of water waves, the dark black stick shot out suddenly, rushing towards the blood-devouring bead with flashing green light. A moment later, there was a loud noise, and the two big and evil things collided. Zhang Xiaofan was like
Suffering from the huge earthquake, his whole body was lifted upwards by more than ten feet, and a large hole was created in the open space beneath him by this force of force.
Zhang Xiaofan fell back to the ground, bleeding from his orifices and dizzy, but the pain in his body seemed to be lighter. He only felt that his eyes were blood red, but his eyes were bleeding. He wiped his eyes with his hands, and saw that strange black gun
The stick hit the blood-devouring bead, and the black energy continued like a wisp, attacking forward. The blood-devouring bead seemed to have spirituality, and knowing it was a formidable enemy, it withdrew its green energy and resisted with all its strength. The two sides were locked in a stalemate. The cold energy on Zhang Xiaofan's body and
The nausea feeling gradually subsided.
Zhang Xiaofan gasped for breath, shocked and shook his hand subconsciously, but the two strange things seemed to be part of his palm and could not be shaken away. They were black and blue, and they were still fighting endlessly.
Zhang Xiaofan was scared in his heart and just wanted to stay as far away from these two monsters as possible. He tried his best to get up. Before he could take a step, he felt dizzy, his whole body was swaying, and his feet were weak.
His body tilted and fell to the ground again. The green bead and black stick in front of him were entangled with each other, and they were fighting fiercely, but the black energy was steaming and seemed to have the upper hand.
Only a moment later, the black energy invaded in large numbers, and the blue light retreated steadily, seemingly unable to resist. At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a sharp pain in the palm of his hand, and his heart almost jumped out of his mouth at a glance.
But in his palm, in a circle around where the blood-devouring bead was attached, bright red blood seeped out of his skin, in an endless stream, and gradually gathered into a large drop of blood.
Zhang Xiaofan's whole body was trembling, and all the color on his face was gone. Correspondingly, the blood-devouring beads were bathed in blood drops, and a green light suddenly bloomed. He counterattacked vigorously, not only restoring the situation, but also gradually overwhelming the black energy.
As more and more blood seeped out from his hands, Zhang Xiaofan gradually lost consciousness. The bright red blood spread upwards and gradually flowed to the interface between the black stick and the blood-devouring bead. It stopped flowing and allowed the green light and black energy to fight.
It kept on going, and after a while, it seeped in here, gradually dyeing the part where the top of the stick and the beads were in contact with red.
A faint smell of blood floated in the air.
As time went by, the red became darker and darker, until it was almost vivid. But somehow, the blue light and black energy that were originally fighting dimmed. From the original appearance of repelling the fight, they gradually turned into a fusion.
momentum.
I don't know how long it took, but this strange change finally came to an end. The black stick and green beads completely lost their luster, merged with each other, and fell from the unconscious Zhang Xiaofan's hand with a "click" and fell to the ground.

"Xiaofan! Xiaofan! Junior brother!..." A series of anxious calls echoed in Zhang Xiaofan's ears.
His mind was in chaos, and he felt an excruciating pain in his head. It seemed that even opening his eyes took all his strength. Tian Linger's anxious face, with a trace of panic, seemed to be far away, and slowly changed in front of his eyes.
Seeing clearly, he moved his lips and whispered: "Senior sister."
Tian Linger was overjoyed and said: "Xiaofan, are you awake?"
Zhang Xiaofan forced a smile and said: "I'm fine, senior sister."
Tian Linger helped him sit up. Zhang Xiaofan looked at the palm of his hand at the first glance, and saw that the skin on the palm of his right hand was not damaged at all, and there was nothing strange except for being a little pale. He was stunned for a moment, but he clearly remembered the palm of his right hand just now.
There was a large amount of blood gushing out, but why is there no trace at all?
Was that a nightmare?
"Xiao Fan." Tian Linger saw that he was in a daze after sitting up, looking like he was distracted. She felt a little worried and pushed him.
Zhang Xiaofan woke up with a start, and was about to tell her about the strange thing just now, but for a moment he didn't know where to start, and he felt that the matter was too weird, and he was also surprised and confused. He was stunned for a moment, and finally said: "No, it's nothing, senior sister.
"
Tian Linger felt relieved. When she woke up, she saw that it was already late. She was lying under a big pine tree, while her junior brother fell in the open space far away, unconscious. She was frightened and hurriedly ran to
Zhang Xiaofan was beside him, but luckily he woke up after a moment.
At this time, Tian Linger looked around and said to Zhang Xiaofan: "Junior brother, there seems to be something strange here. Let's leave here as soon as possible. I'll ask my mother to come over tomorrow and take a look."
Zhang Xiaofan nodded and was about to get up when he suddenly felt severe pain all over his body and felt dizzy. If Tian Linger hadn't quickly held him up, he would have almost fallen down again.
Seeing that his face was extremely pale, with not even a trace of blood visible, Tian Linger felt really worried, so she carefully lifted him up. Zhang Xiaofan calmed down, looked at his body again, and saw no wounds, and said: "Senior Sister,
I'm just a little dizzy, nothing serious."
Tian Linger took another closer look and found that it was indeed the case. He nodded and said, "Then let's go back quickly. It's getting dark. I'm afraid my father, mother and all the senior brothers are worried."
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Yes."
Tian Linger took a deep breath and checked that there was nothing abnormal about her body. She wondered why she fainted for no reason. Then she made a gesture, and from where the red light flashed, the "Amber Scarlet Silk" roared out.
Just as Tian Linger and Zhang Xiaofan were about to go up, they suddenly heard a "squeaking" sound from the side. They turned their heads and looked, but they saw the gray-haired monkey standing next to them at some time, smiling at them and dragging their hands.
He was wearing a short black stick about two feet long and made of unknown material.
※※※
In front of the Dazhu Peak Shoujing Hall, Tian Buyi was pacing back and forth, his brows furrowed and a slightly anxious look on his face. Early this morning, his daughter and the incompetent seventh disciple went to the back mountain to cut bamboo and play, but now it's dark and no one has come back.
Suru went out to look for them early in the morning, and now his disciples have been sent out one after another, but there is no trace on Dazhu Peak. The surrounding mountains are undulating and the jungle is dense. Looking for two people is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
He was anxious when suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air. Tian Buyi looked up, but it was Suru who came back with two little ghosts. It seemed that Tian Linger and the two of them looked fine, but there was actually something wrong on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder.
There is also a gray-haired monkey lying down, I don’t know where it came from.
Tian Buyi felt relieved, but the anger on his face did not fade away at all. Zhang Xiaofan glanced at the master, his heart was frightened, and he did not dare to move. He lowered his head to his chest, but the gray monkey was very naughty, and it kept moving.
He reached out and scratched Zhang Xiaofan's hair, as if trying to find a few lice.
Tian Linger put away the amber scarlet silk, and out of the corner of her eye she saw her father standing in front of the hall with an angry face. He rolled his eyes a few times, smiled like a flower, and was so innocent and cute. He ran to Tian Buyi's side and pulled his hand.
Shou said: "Dad, we are back."
Tian Buyi snorted and said, "Where are you going?"
Tian Linger said with a smile: "When Xiaofan was chopping bamboo, he was bullied by a monkey. I went to catch it to help Xiaofan vent his anger. Here it is, that monkey." As he said that, he pointed in the direction of Zhang Xiaofan.
The gray monkey on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder was startled, and shouted "Zhi Zhi" twice in this direction, making an angry gesture, then scratched its head, and then turned its attention to Zhang Xiaofan's hair.
Tian Linger made a face at it, and then briefly recounted the chase, and then said: "...Later I chased him into the valley, I suddenly felt nauseous, and I fainted for some reason. When I woke up, I saw Xiao Fan also
He fell to the ground, unconscious. But luckily none of us were injured. When we were about to come back, I saw that the monkey seemed very attached to Xiaofan, so I brought it back too."
Tian Buyi frowned, turned to his wife, and said, "What's going on?"
Suru shook her head and said: "When I found the two of them in the back mountain, I went down to check, and there was nothing unusual. I think it was probably because Ling'er didn't practice enough, and he forced Xiaofan and Xiaofan to ride on the Amber Vermillion.
Ling was flying in the air, but in the end she lost her strength."
Tian Linger said coquettishly: "Mom, what are you talking about? How can I not practice enough? Xiaofan, do you think so?"
Zhang Xiaofan said quickly: "Yes, yes, yes!"
Tian Buyi rolled his eyes at Zhang Xiaofan and said coldly: "As a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, I was actually bullied by a monkey. If the news spreads, I will be completely embarrassed by you."
Zhang Xiaofan blushed, did not dare to say a word, and lowered his head.
Suru walked over, took Tian Linger's hand, and said softly: "You haven't eaten anything all day, are you hungry?"
Tian Linger stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "I'm so hungry, mother!"
Suru glared at her, pulled her towards the kitchen, and said: "You are a little kid but a ghost!"
Zhang Xiaofan also felt hungry at this moment, but in front of Tian Buyi, he dared not move. He heard that Suru and Tian Linger were far away, but there was no movement from the master. He secretly raised his eyes and saw that there was no one in front of the hall.
, Tian Buyi left at some point, probably in his heart, he felt that even scolding this idiot apprentice was a waste of energy.
Zhang Xiaofan was dazed for a moment and stood there for a long time. Only when his stomach thundered, did he turn around, but subconsciously he didn't want to go to the kitchen, but walked to his room.
After returning to the room and closing the door, the gray monkey looked around over his shoulder and let out a "squeak" sound, as if he knew he was home. He jumped off his shoulder and ran to the bed in three steps, jumping and grabbing.
I pick up the pillow and throw it around, which is great joy.
Zhang Xiaofan looked at the gray monkey with a smile on his face, but was immediately overcome by hunger. He sat down at the table, poured a cup of overnight cold water from the teapot, and drank it.
A chill penetrated my heart.
He sat blankly for a while, then reached out and took out something from his arms, which was the ugly stick. At this moment, the bead Puzhi gave him was tightly connected with the unknown stick.
The color all changed to dark green, black, and the interface was dark red, like solidified blood, which was not only ugly, but also a bit disgusting.
He watched for a long time, then suddenly gave a wry smile, shook his hand vigorously, and threw the stick against the wall. The stick hit the wall with a loud noise, fell down again, and landed in a corner of the house.
The gray monkey was startled and looked up at Zhang Xiaofan, wondering why he lost his temper. Zhang Xiaofan sighed, took off his shoes and went to bed, covered his head with the quilt and went to sleep. The monkey touched his head and didn't know why.
That night, Zhang Xiaofan tossed and turned, feeling extremely hungry, until late at night, he fell asleep in a daze.
