The armored general hesitated for a few seconds, but chose to give up, let go of Cao Qianqian, and knelt on the ground slumped, "I just ask you to spare my life and spare my life."
"It's useless." Xia Tian did not change his attitude just because the other party gave in. "I said you are dead, then you are absolutely dead and there won't be any change."
The eyes of the armored general were full of unwillingness and resentment, but it was a pity that it was of no use, and in the end it turned into a pile of dust and scattered in the wind.
"Strange, why haven't these stone statues changed at all?" Cao Qianqian had a puzzled look on her face.
Xia Tian looked back at her: "What changes do you want?"
Cao Qianqian explained in a natural tone: "Watching anime movies or something, after the BOSS is defeated, won't the people controlled by him return to normal?"
"Those are all fake." Xia Tian shrugged and said disapprovingly.
Cao Qianqian looked confused and pointed at the stone statues: "Then how to rescue them?"
"You want to save them?" Xia Tian said casually.
"They are quite pitiful no matter what." Cao Qianqian is indeed overflowing with sympathy, mainly because she has a strong ability to empathize and cannot ignore that these people are trapped in stone statues and will never be able to escape. Of course, they are still a little far away from the Heart of the Holy Mother.
.
Xia Tian said with a smile: "It's actually not difficult to save them."
"What should we do?" Cao Qianqian immediately asked.
"Just find the person who created them and kill them." Xia Tian said in an understatement.
Cao Qianqian frowned, tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "If I understand correctly, you mean that as long as you kill them and turn them into such people, they may return to normal, right?
?”
"You're not hopelessly stupid yet." Xia Tian expressed a certain degree of recognition for her understanding.
"This is different from what I said just now." Cao Qianqian complained a little helplessly, "Isn't it the same as killing the BOSS and then losing control of him and returning to normal?"
"It's different." Xia Tian replied firmly.
Cao Qianqian was confused: "What's the difference?"
"What you said is false." Xia Tian replied seriously: "And what I said is true."
"Okay, let's just treat what you said as true." Cao Qianqian was stunned for a while, and then asked with some confusion: "But the general in armor is already dead. Could it be that he faked his death?"
"That idiot in armor died completely. He didn't fake his death." Xia Tian shook his head.
"This doesn't make sense." Cao Qianqian looked at Xia Tian with doubtful eyes: "The person who restrained them is dead, why haven't they returned to normal yet?"
Xia Tian couldn't help but sigh: "I just complimented you, but ended up being stupid again. Can't you understand this?"
"You!" Cao Qianqian finally felt what Xia Tian disliked, and said angrily: "I finally understand, your girlfriend named Guobao Baobao must not be able to stand your temper, so she left home.
Ran away."
"You look even more stupid when you say this." Xia Tian curled her lips, "First of all, the good baby is not my girlfriend, and secondly, she didn't run away from home, and I have a very good temper. If you can't stand it, then it must be
You should reflect on your problem carefully."
Cao Qianqian was completely speechless, and after a while she said: "Okay, I'm stupid, I asked Xia Tian to make it clear."
"You can't think of it being so simple?" Xia Tian explained casually: "Because that armored general is not a BOSS at all. At most, he is an elite monster before meeting the BOSS."
"Huh?" Cao Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then understood, and couldn't help but become a little scared: "You mean there is a monster in this place?"
"Yes." Xia Tian lazily yawned, "Go and lure that monster out."
"Shall I go?" Cao Qianqian pointed to herself with a surprised expression on her face: "I am an ordinary person. If you let me go, what if I die?"
Xia Tian said disapprovingly: "As long as I am here, it is impossible for you to die, and even if you die, I can still save you."
"Are you really that powerful?" Cao Qianqian looked at Xia Tian with some suspicion: "Hua Tuo wouldn't dare to say such big words even in his lifetime."
"There's so much nonsense, forget it, I don't need you anymore." Xia Tian became a little impatient, and suddenly took out a silver needle and ejected it directly: "I'm too lazy to waste time, it's a bit too boring here."
Cao Qianqian didn't know what Xia Tian was doing, but her eyes followed the silver needle and flew into the distance.
"ah--"
Not long after, only a scream was heard.
However, a stone statue suddenly jumped up, shook off its disguise, and stared at Xia Tian and Cao Qianqian angrily.
"Boy, you have good eyesight. You can actually see through my disguise." The stone statue gradually revealed its true appearance, but it turned out to be an extremely ugly middle-aged woman: "My queen's disguise has been hidden for thousands of years.
No one can see through, you are very good, I want to accept you as a...ah!"
Before he finished speaking, Xia Tian was kicked in the face and flew backwards.
Before Charming Queen could get up, Xia Tian chased after her and kicked her again, hitting her face. She kicked Charming Queen away and then fell heavily, falling into a mud pit.
"You're too ugly. I don't want to hear what you say, let alone see your face." Xia Tian curled his lips and said unhappily.
Sure enough, the Queen Charming, whose face was covered in blood and flesh, opened her mouth to scream, but in the end there was no sound, her body could not move, and she sank down little by little until she was completely submerged.
Cao Qianqian was stunned and didn't know what to say at all.
After a while, the tens of thousands of stone statues slowly returned to normal. Some were still human, and some had only souls left. However, they all regained their freedom, and they were all grateful to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian was not interested in accepting other people's gratitude and left the area directly because he felt a familiar aura.
"Hey, wait for me!" Cao Qianqian was stunned for a moment and quickly came to her senses. Without Xia Tian's protection, she would die at any time in this dangerous secret realm.
Xia Tian was not walking fast, but Cao Qianqian found that she couldn't catch up, and she couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
Not long after, Xia Tian came to a river.
The river doesn't look wide, only about three or four meters, and the water flow is very shallow and crystal clear. Obviously you can step across it directly, so there is no bridge on the river.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid of water?" Cao Qianqian found Xia Tian standing by the river in a daze. She couldn't help running after him, and asked tentatively: "How about I carry you there?"
Xia Tian looked at her with a smile: "Are you sure?"
"Even though I'm thin, I'm also muscular." Seeing that Xia Tian seemed to be mocking her, Cao Qianqian immediately rolled up her sleeves and bulged her biceps, "It won't be a problem to carry you."
"Forget it. I don't like letting women carry me on my back." Xia Tian lazily yawned, "I'm not afraid of water either."
Cao Qianqian asked in confusion: "Then why are you standing by the river in a daze?"
"I'm not in a daze." Xia Tian looked at the slowly flowing river with an unhappy expression on his face: "I'm waiting for it to take action."
"Who? Who did it?" Cao Qianqian was even more confused. She looked around and found no one else there.
Xia Tian pointed to the crystal clear river water: "I'm talking about it."
"What's wrong with this water? Could it be that I can still jump up and hit you?" Cao Qianqian said with a dumbfounded smile. She felt that Xia Tian's character was not only a little neurotic, but also a little unreasonable. "Stop joking, this kind of joke doesn't make sense at all."
Not good...ah!"
"Crack!"
Before she finished speaking, Cao Qianqian felt like she had been slapped on the face.
Cao Qianqian covered her face and looked around blankly: "Who hit me?"
"What do you think?" Xia Tian smiled and asked.
Cao Qianqian knew that it was definitely not Xia Tian who hit her, because she had been looking at Xia Tian when she just spoke. But except for Xia Tian, she was the only one left in front of her, and there was no third person. Could it be that there was a ghost?
"There are no ghosts here." Xia Tian saw Cao Qianqian's suspicion.
Cao Qianqian was even more difficult to understand: "If there is no ghost, then who beat me... Wait, how do you know what I am thinking?"
"Because I know everything." Xia Tian said seriously.
Cao Qianqian didn't believe it.
"Pah, pah!"
This time, he fired his bow left and right. Although the speed was very fast, Cao Qianqian still caught some images from the corner of his eyes.
It seemed like something jumped out of the water just now, then threw it on her face, and then fell back into the water at an extremely fast speed.
"Water, there are monsters in the water." Cao Qianqian pointed at the river and shouted at Xia Tian.
Xia Tian looked calm: "It's not that there are monsters in the water, it's that the water is the monster."
"What should we do? How can we get there?" Cao Qianqian said worriedly.
Xia Tian replied lazily: "It's very simple for me to go there. I'll be there with a light jump."
"Then why...are you waiting for me?" Cao Qianqian suddenly thought of something and asked with some hesitation: "You won't fall in love with me, right? I can tell you that you are not my type."
"You are overthinking. You are still a bit ugly and not pretty enough. You are not even qualified to be my candidate wife." Xia Tian curled his lips and said unhappily.
Cao Qianqian received a critical hit of 10,000 points, and the pain of being slapped in the face was nothing more. Now she wanted to tear Xia Tian's mouth off with her hands.
"Crash!"
At this time, the river felt that it was being ignored, and immediately jumped up from the river, rolling up huge waves and rushing toward Xia Tian and Cao Qianqian.
"Can't help it anymore?" The expression on Xia Tian's face didn't change much, but the sea-fixing needle between his fingers had already lit up, and he tapped it gently towards the rushing river water.
"ah!"
There was a scream in the river, and then the water began to twist rapidly and desperately retreated into the river.
Unfortunately it's too late.
Although the Dinghai Divine Needle may not be the one in legend, it is not an ordinary thing either.
Even the sea can freeze, let alone a small river like you, which is a monster.
"I want to run, but it's too late." Xia Tian yawned lazily, and casually entered a ray of ice and fire spiritual energy. He saw that the river water was instantly frozen inch by inch, and soon shattered inch by inch, and was steamed into water vapor.
After a while, it disappeared without a trace.
"This..." Cao Qianqian felt that her three views were once again seriously challenged, and she didn't react for a long time.
But before she could recover, she saw that the empty river suddenly lifted up like a living creature, swallowing up Xia Xia and Cao Qianqian like a beast that preys on people.
