Killing God

Chapter 61 Lucky

Under the cliff tiankeng, on the bank of a clear and secluded lake. .

Shen Shi stared at Zhong Qingzhu who was still standing in the water, looked at it several times from top to bottom, and said, "Didn't you really know how to swim before?"

Zhong Qingzhu shook his head, and asked back: "Then I can swim like this, Stone?"

Shen Shi was at a loss, thought for a while but couldn't be sure, and said: "Probably, when I saw Haixing swimming, she looked similar to you just now, but of course she is more proficient in comparison."

With a hint of joy on Zhong Qingzhu's face, he smiled and said, "Really, then swimming is quite simple."

Shen Shi rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, whose face are you hitting desperately...

Zhong Qingzhu fluttered in the pool for a while, Shen Shi stood on the bank and reminded her to be careful from time to time, but gradually realized that Zhong Qingzhu really seemed to have an inexplicable talent in this, but just listening to word of mouth, Coupled with trying a few times by myself, it seems that I have really learned it.This makes it really embarrassing for a person who has been taught by a famous teacher and has studied hard for a long time and still has no hope of success.

Seeing Zhong Qingzhu who was becoming more and more comfortable in the pool, Shen Shi had a little doubt about his natural assets for the first time, and at the same time he really realized that there really are shocking geniuses in this world.

Zhong Qingzhu seemed to be getting familiar with Shui's surname quickly, even though she was still injured in her left hand at the moment, she already showed a bit of speed when walking in the swimming pool, after a while, she suddenly turned her head to face Shen Shi who was standing on the shore. shouted:

"Stone, wait for me, I'll try diving down to see if there's a way out?"

"Ah?" Shen Shi was taken aback, but before he was born to stop him, Zhong Qingzhu took a deep breath and dived into the water, and his figure disappeared after a while.

Shen Shi was quite worried, frowned and looked at the gradually calming pool, and said, "What's the hurry, do you want to run before you learn to walk! Uh..."

His voice suddenly dropped, and he pouted: Well, she seems to have learned to "walk".

It was only a short period of practice, and his physical body was almost the same as that of ordinary people. He took a deep breath and dived into the water. Zhong Qingzhu surfaced without holding on for a long time, and waved to Shen Shi from a distance. His expression was nothing special.

Shen Shi was a little worried, he waved his hand and said, "Why don't you come up and take a rest first?"

Zhong Qingzhu gently wiped his face with his hands, and said: "There is no rush to get into the water, there is nothing wrong, I will come up after I have a look." After that, he turned around and took another deep breath, and dived down.

This time it took a little longer to dive into the water than the previous one. While Shen Shi was waiting, his eyes fell on the water surface, thinking whether he should also try to go down and splash a few more times, maybe he would be enlightened and learn to swim all of a sudden. Is it...

After hesitating, time passed unknowingly, but Zhong Qingzhu didn't come up, Shen Shi gradually became a little worried, couldn't help but took two steps towards the water's edge, and looked under the water surface nervously, thinking what should he do? nothing will happen?

Fortunately, at this moment, there was only a sound of "哗啦", the water was rippling, and Zhong Qingzhu broke out of the water like a small fish, but this time she did not stay in the water, but swam towards the shore with both hands and feet .

Shen Shi saw that she also had a tired look on her face, and quickly took a few steps forward, stepped into the water, caught her after she came over, helped Zhong Qingzhu to the shore, and walked back to the cave without rain The two of them were relieved to sit down.

Zhong Qingzhu exhaled, and said: "I went there and looked..." Looking up and seeing Shen Shi's eyes with some hope, Zhong Qingzhu was silent for a moment, as if hesitating, and said in a low voice: "There is no way out. of."

Shen Shi didn't look like she was cheering when she came up before, so he guessed in his heart that it might be the result. Now when he heard her say it himself, although he was a little disappointed, he was expected, sighed, and didn't speak.

Zhong Qingzhu glanced at him and said, "However, I found this under the water."

Shen Shi raised his eyes and saw Zhong Qingzhu stretched out his hand and spread out his palm. In his white palm, there were two crystal clear and beautiful small stones.

Shen Shi's eyes lit up, he stood up abruptly, and said, "Lingjing!"

※※※

Crystal clear and radiant, even in this somewhat dark cave, there is a faint brilliance. These two crystal-shaped small stones lying quietly in Zhong Qingzhu's palms are the indispensable spirit crystals for monks.

Zhong Qingzhu also had a look of joy on his face, but he looked much calmer than Shen Shi, and smiled: "Yeah, I didn't see a way out to the outside after I went underwater, but I happened to see a corner under the water surface. Now that I have these two spirit crystals, I took them back."

"You're lucky." Shen Shi took a spirit crystal from her hand and sighed authentically.

Jinhong Mountain is the number one fairy mountain in the south of Hongmeng. The spiritual veins in the depths of the mountains are famous for their dragon veins. They are huge and long with deep spiritual energy and rich in spiritual crystals. Only such huge spiritual veins can support such a huge comprehension force of the Lingxiao Sect. Therefore, any cultivator with a small scale in the world will almost certainly have a large or small spiritual vein at the location of the mountain gate, which is the fundamental foundation of the sect.

The spiritual vein of Jinhong Mountain is hidden deep in the fairy mountain. Naturally, it is closely guarded by Ling Xiaozong, but this spiritual vein is really astonishingly large, stretching across the sea of ​​​​the fairy mountain. Except for the main vein in the depths of Jinhong Mountain, the remaining veins and branches are deep in the ground. It also spread, and the islands and oceans surrounding Jinhongxian Mountain will be affected by this spiritual vein.

Although the spiritual power of the heavens and the earth is already weak at the ends of the branches of the spirit veins, it is impossible to produce spirit crystals every day like the main vein, but after a long time, occasionally a little spirit crystals will condense and scatter outside, and the islands around Jinhong Mountain On the sea, one or two spirit crystals can be found by chance, and those red clam people often find a few spirit crystals in the deep sea water every time they dive, this is the same reason.

It's just that the Lingxiao Sect has established a sect in Jinhong Mountain for tens of thousands of years, and there are few people in the sea. Most of the surrounding islands, large and small, have been set foot on by people, so basically there is no such thing as a roadside. It's a good thing to pick up a spirit crystal.As for the scene in front of me, it must be that there are few people under this cliff and secluded pool, and affected by the end of a certain spiritual vein, a few spirit crystals have condensed for a long time, but it is really a surprise.

Zhong Qingzhu also looked happy, and said: "With these two spirit crystals, each of us will last for at least [-] days."

Shen Shi nodded, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, is there anything under the water?"

Zhong Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, glanced at Shen Shi, shook his head, and said, "I haven't seen any other spirit crystals, so I'll find these two. If no one comes to rescue us later, I'll come back to save you." Go down and look for it?"

Shen Shi nodded, feeling a little disappointed in his heart, but then he became happy, and looked at the spirit crystal in his hand with a smile on his face. After all, this is the real life-saving treasure. If you can find this thing in this desperate situation, what else? What about complaining?

Zhong Qingzhu looked at him with a smile on the side, his lips twitched a few times, hesitated to speak, and finally smiled and said: "How about, let's practice as soon as possible, I hope that in the next 20 days, all the brothers and sisters in the door can find us."

Shen Shi nodded, subconsciously looked up at the narrow sky on the cliff outside the cave and forgot, the wind and rain were still there, but the strong wind was blocked by the cliff, but the rain was still heavy, falling from the sky , the whole world still looks gray.

※※※

I don't know when the cave started to be quiet. Holding the spirit crystal in his hand, Shen Shi felt a warm and slightly cool breath coming from his palm. He raised his eyes and found Zhong Qingzhu sitting on the other side of the cave, Leaning against the stone wall, sitting cross-legged, with eyes closed and a deep expression on his face, it seems that he is practicing, absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth from the spirit crystal.

He withdrew his gaze and returned to the spirit crystal in his hand, thinking that he could only use one spirit crystal for ten days, but now it seems that he should save it, let's just practice once a day.

Thinking of him here, he also calmed down, closed his eyes, immersed his mind in the soul crystal of his palm, and began to perceive the faint spiritual power of heaven and earth.

The process of cultivation was the same as before, calm and steady. He successfully sensed the spiritual power in the spirit crystal, then led the spirit into his body, and slowly circulated along the energy channels around his body for a week. When the spiritual power stabilized in his body, He just felt a little drowsy, which was the inevitable mental exhaustion after cultivation.

Shen Shi slowly opened his eyes, and found that Zhong Qingzhu was still cultivating with her eyes closed. It seemed that she had been cultivating for a longer time than herself. In terms of joints, it is slower than myself.

Sitting on the spot and hesitated for a while, Shen Shi closed his eyes again, the mantra of the Qingxin Mantra slowly flowed through his heart, and a cool and gentle breath began to wander slowly in his body. It was a very familiar feeling, the spiritual power that had just been inhaled into the body not long ago, seemed to be stimulated by some unknown force, and suddenly woke up again, and began to swim slowly again.

Passed through the chest and abdomen, swam across the Tiantu Baihui, and finally stopped silently at the center of Shen Shi's eyebrows. There was already some weak spiritual power gathered here. result of the curse.Now he practices twice a day, during which time he uses the heart-cleaning mantra to restore his spirit. The spiritual power obtained from the second practice is no different from that of ordinary people, it is scattered randomly in the energy channels of the whole body, and he can hardly notice it on weekdays. Only in the future when the cultivation base is refined and breakthrough reaches the realm of condensing the essence, and the Qihai Yufu is opened up, the spiritual power of the whole body can return to the dantian of the Yufu. Channeling.

In addition to these spiritual powers that are no different from ordinary people, there is another part of spiritual power in Shen Shi's body. It is because after practicing the Qingxin Mantra, it is strangely gathered at the center of his eyebrows, which is different from the ordinary spiritual power scattered around the body. Different, the spiritual power in the center of his eyebrows seems to be gathered in one place. After each practice, the spiritual power will naturally gather and fuse together. Although Shen Shi's practice time is still short, the spiritual power in the center of the eyebrows is still weak Incomparable, but in the feeling, it is already thicker than those scattered spiritual power.

And today's spiritual power, after reaching the center of Shen Shi's eyebrows, did not show any signs of struggle, and subduedly merged with the original spiritual power here, and it felt as if this piece of spiritual power was a little thicker Condensed a little.

Chapter 62 Saved

After escaping by chance at the beginning, trekking hard in the dark cave, struggling out of the cave full of hope, and finding himself in a desperate situation again, he was overwhelmed with joy and sorrow, but the following days seemed to be much calmer all of a sudden.

Because Zhong Qingzhu was lucky enough to find two spirit crystals under the water, Shen Shi and her were able to survive in this tiankeng. Although there is still no hope of salvation, it is finally Temporarily freed from the threat of death.

In the days that followed, the two of them often looked at the sky, hoping to see the mysterious figures of brothers and sisters in Youmenzhong descending from the sky. The disciples of the Lingxiao Sect who searched never found this place. After five days, even the storm in the sea had receded, and the sky had returned to blue and clear, but there was a figure on the cliff, even if there was no sign of flying across the sky. No.

From the beginning full of hope, Shen Shi gradually became a little anxious. You must know that they only have two spirit crystals in their hands. If they share them, they can only support them for [-] days at most. Someone came to rescue them, I'm afraid that the two of them are really going to die here.

So at dusk on the fifth day, Shen Shi discussed with Zhong Qingzhu: "Qingzhu, I think it is very difficult for anyone to come here again, why don't we try to walk around from under the cave, maybe we can go out ?”

Through these few days of practice, Zhong Qingzhu led the spirit into his body, and the spiritual power was miraculous. The injury on his hand was much better, and the pain was no longer so painful, but he still couldn't move easily.After hearing Shen Shi's words, she hesitated for a while, as if she was also thinking about it. After a while, she raised her head and said, "I think we should wait here for a few more days. The cave at the bottom is pitch black. What is there?" It’s weird that we don’t know about it, and we always think it’s very dangerous.”

Shen Shi nodded slowly. What Zhong Qingzhu said was indeed reasonable. It seemed that he was not as careful as her as a man. Since he had the spirit crystal in his hand, there was really no need to be so urgent, so he agreed immediately.

Seeing that he didn't insist, Zhong Qingzhu's face relaxed a lot. After a few light chats, her gaze accidentally swept across the secluded pool outside the cave. Her gaze froze slightly for a moment, but then her face was expressionless again. turned away.

※※※

After three more days like this, each day started with peace and anticipation, and every time at dusk and evening, it ended in disappointment, and the rescuer never showed up. I'm afraid that those brothers on Herring Island might have thought that the two of them were swept away by the huge waves, so they gave up rescue.

His mood gradually began to become a little irritable again. Although his surname is actually a calm and cautious personality on weekdays, but in a desperate situation, seeing that the hope of rescue is getting smaller and smaller, how can he not be anxious? On the other hand, Zhong Qingzhu remained as calm as before, and he didn't show much anxiety on weekdays, which surprised Shen Shi a bit.

It's just that the days of waiting are really hard. Besides, if it is really impossible to go back to the cave, of course, the more remaining uses of the spirit crystal, the better. So on the ninth day, Shen Shi finally couldn't bear it, and asked Zhong Zhong again. Qingzhu proposed to try to go out to the bottom of the cave.

Zhong Qingzhu hesitated and thought for a long time this time, but in the end he begged Shen Shi in a soft voice to wait a few more days. Shen Shi was puzzled and asked why she didn't want to go back. It's not a last resort, and I really don't want to go back to the bottom of that dark and terrifying cave.

Shen Shi was at a loss and speechless, but it was impossible to just leave Zhong Qingzhu alone and go away, so he stayed after all, and made an appointment with Zhong Qingzhu to wait for a few days at the end, if the rescuer still didn't come, then There is nothing to do, so I can only try to go back.

But perhaps it was the patient waiting that finally moved God. During this painful waiting, on the tenth day, a day that is almost impossible to hope for, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu first saw the original blue sky in the morning. Suddenly, several strange rays of light flashed across the sky, criss-crossing, long-lasting, and shaped like the sky; at noon, more and more strange lights appeared on the dome of the sky, and finally formed a huge light curtain, covering the entire Herring Island , Magnificent fantasy extreme.

When the mask is fully formed, dozens of gentle white lights descend from the sky. The white lights are like mountains and mountains, and they are majestic and daunting. They move slowly from the edge of Qingyu Island to the inside of the island. Seeing the huge brilliance of the action trail, it is even the island. I didn't miss a single bit of it, and scanned it all.

In the afternoon, a ray of white light passed over a rock wall in a certain mountain, and shone into the cliff tiankeng.

The calm white light passed over the astonished faces and bodies of Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, then suddenly stopped, and at this moment, the strange and huge mask in the sky also suddenly let out a deep and sharp sound. Voice.

As if awakened in their hearts, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu looked at each other, and they both saw the uncontrollable excitement and desire in each other's eyes. The two ran to the middle of the bottom of the tiankeng together, looking up at the miraculously huge light in the sky. Curtain, shouted loudly.

Half an hour later, several sword beams pierced through the air, hovered over the cliff with incomparable speed, and then rushed forward. The leader was indeed Wang Gen.Behind him, Zheng Zhe and other disciples of the Lingxiao Sect also followed, with a bit of unimaginable surprise on their faces, as if they hadn't expected that Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were still tenaciously living under this cliff.

saved……

At that moment, when Wang Gen's resolute face appeared in front of their eyes, leading everyone to fall under the precipice and deep valley, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu finally confirmed that they really escaped from the sky, and this catastrophe was finally over. .

Zhong Qingzhu's eyes were red, as if he wanted to cry again, Shen Shi also gritted his teeth, staring blankly at the burly Wang Gen striding towards him.

Although Wang Gen's expression was not as surprised as that of Zheng Zhe and others, it could still be seen that there was some excitement and excitement that rarely appeared on his face. Looking at the two young men and women under the cliff, their clothes were torn Her face was tired, and the girl's left hand was still tied by her side with a cloth belt, which looked like a severed arm injury.Not to mention how they escaped from ascending to heaven and struggled here, but it is conceivable how much hardship the two of them endured.

Wang Gen took a deep breath, stood in front of the two of them, nodded slightly, showed a smile, and said, "Okay, let's go home."

"Hmm..." There was a low sob, and when I remembered it from the side, it was Zhong Qingzhu who finally couldn't bear the excitement and choked up with his mouth covered.

※※※

At this moment, the turmoil in the sea and the loss of the storm finally came to an end.Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were rescued by Wang Gen and others back to Herring, and they received medical treatment first. The two were trapped in the precipice and deep valley for more than ten days, and they were already exhausted physically and mentally. No particular wounds remained.

Zhong Qingzhu's injury was a little more serious, especially the fracture of his left arm had dragged on for so many days, and he even swam in the water a few times without knowing the severity. After Wang Gen and others checked, they told her that it was a sign that the treatment was not a cure. The broken bone in the arm had not been connected properly. After so many days of delay, the broken bone inside had been misplaced, and the injury was actually more serious. up.

If it were in the mundane world, this arm would be hard to save, but wherever the Lingxiao Sect is, there are naturally panacea and miraculous means. Although these spiritual materials and methods are usually very valuable, at this moment Wang Gen naturally used it unceremoniously. In Zhong Qingzhu's body, her arm was quickly rescued, but because of the delay for too long, it still had some small effects after all. In the future, there will be a slight difference between the movements of her left arm and ordinary people, but it does not matter. If you look carefully, you can't see it, and at the same time, it won't affect your future Taoism practice, which is already a blessing in misfortune.

In contrast, Shen Shi basically had no serious problems, and some minor injuries had healed in those ten days or so, but the saddest thing was those days when he was suffering from desperation. Suffering, after being rescued this time, he was sent back to the cave, rested for a day or two, and he almost recovered.

During this period, Wang Gen came to visit him once, and other new friends he met on weekdays also came here. He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang, and even the starfish girl from Hongceng Village all got the news and came to visit him in his cave. a bit.But of course Sun You was the one who treated him the most kindly. These days, he went to talk to him in his cave almost every day, and Shen Shi couldn't bear the way he asked for his health.

Only when Shen Shi asked him why, Sun Youcai said that after the accident that day, he was also very worried about Shen Shi's safety, but when Shen Shi was rescued, Wang Gen and others also asked him and Zhong Qingzhu what happened before and after the disappearance. Knowing that on the day of the storm, Shen Shi went to look for him and strayed into Caibei Beach by mistake, so he was in danger, Sun You felt a little sorry, so he came here every day.

Of course, Shen Shi would not argue with Sun You because of this, and smiled and told him not to say too much. Sun You also laughed it off, but during the two days of chatting, Shen Shi learned from Sun You that after he disappeared, he knew something about Herring Island. happened.

The sea storm hit, and Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu disappeared. No matter what went wrong, Senior Brother Wang Gen was furious in Xuanyue Hall that day, and he trained all the senior brothers, and then ignored the storm. Still not stopping, they sent everyone out to search for the whereabouts of the two.

It's just that no one would have imagined that the two of them would be washed into the ground by huge waves, and struggle to crawl to that secluded and unknown cliff and deep valley. Therefore, even if Wang Gen and others searched carefully, they almost turned over three feet of land on the island. But still haven't found them.

As time went on, the hearts of the people gradually became more and more desperate. Most of them guessed that they were on the coast before the storm came, so they were swept away by the wind and waves, so they couldn't find anyone.It's just that among the crowd, only Senior Brother Wang Gen was exceptionally persistent, even after so long, he still refused to give up the search and rescue.

In fact, when things have come to this point, the Lingxiao Sect's sect has naturally received news. Although the disappearance of the newcomer disciple on Herring Island is not a huge wave in the sect, there are many undercurrents behind it. How many people secretly waited to see Wang Gen's ugliness, but they knew it without asking.

"But fortunately, thanks to Brother Wang's persistence, I was able to save you." Sun You sighed, and at the same time glanced at Shen Shi, and smiled, "By the way, I was able to save you this time, thanks to that day in the sky. Dao Light Mask, do you know what that is?"

Shen Shi was stunned. A magical light curtain flashed across the sky that day, and there were various visions, and then Wang Gen and others went deep into the cliff to save people. Obviously, from the beginning to the end, that strange white light was the source of his salvation. When Sun You said this, he hurriedly asked:

"Ah, is that thing really weird? What exactly is it?"
