Escape
"puff!"
"ah!"
Wang Nanxing and Qianluo both spat out a mouthful of icy water. They finally escaped. It turned out that the pool was connected to the outside. They didn’t know how long they had been swimming, but it was getting colder and colder. Is an ordinary winter this cold?
Qian Luo exhaled a breath of hot air, opened her frozen eyelashes, and trembled her lips. Her face was red from the cold. She looked at Wang Tongtian who was in the same situation next to her.
Maybe his spiritual energy was exhausted and his physical fitness couldn't keep up.
The scene before them was covered in silver. The hills were heavily laden with white snow. The heavy snow broke the branches, making a crisp "crackling" sound. The snow fluttered and the north wind howled. In the deserted snowfield, only the two of them were left.
The air was filled with a cold breath, and snowflakes fell from the sky, landing on their snow-white faces.
They broke through the ice and were hit by the cold. Every breath was like eating an ice knife in their mouth. Their throats were full of ice chips and their whole bodies were shivering with cold.
The heavy ice water clung to their clothes. The two men took off their wet down jackets, which were no longer wearable as they were completely soaked by the ice water, like carrying a heavy stone on their backs.
Qian Luo quickly pulled out two low-level robes from Wang Tongtian's storage bag. She had seen the old man wearing a thin Taoist robe in the cold weather. It turned out that they were robes to keep warm. Poor her, she was so poor that she had to wear a down jacket.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoqing."
Wang Nanxing covered his mouth and rubbed his hands. The robe was more than enough to protect him from the ordinary cold.
He was pleasantly surprised to see a cave not far away and pointed at it in surprise: "Sister Xiaoqing, look, there is a cave over there!"
Qianluo threw down her down jacket. She still had some wounds on her body that hadn't healed yet, so she went there just in time to heal and rest. She nodded in agreement, "Let's go."
The two of them supported each other and walked into the cave. Wang Nanxing held the girl's hand, and the coldness in his hand unexpectedly became a little hot. His palm was broad and slender, while Sister Xiaoqing's hand was petite and cute. He stared at the place where the two of them were holding hands, a little dazed.
Her lips opened, and the heart in her chest seemed to hear his voice, beating violently a few times, bringing him back to his senses.
When they arrived at the cave, Qianluo used the cleaning technique, and the cave, which was full of ice, snow, mud and water, became brand new, clean and clear. The cave was neither too big nor too small, just enough for two people to warm themselves by the fire again.
With a "bang", she ignited the blood flame, and instantly hot air rushed towards her face.
Her disguise pill had long since lost its effect, revealing her true appearance.
The bright firelight illuminated the girl's fair and beautiful face. Her wet hair fell by her ears, black and slender, and her eyes were clear and beautiful, like a fairy in the water.
The boy blushed slightly and praised politely: "Wow, Sister Xiaoqing, your fireball technique is amazing!"
Wang Nanxing had always thought that this was just an ordinary fireball technique. Qianluo did not explain and took out the Soul-Replenishing Pill from her storage bag and handed it to him: "Soul-Replenishing Pill, replenish spiritual energy."
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoqing!" Wang Nanxing took out half a bottle of spirit wine from his storage bag and placed it on the blood flame to roast. "Luckily, I brought spirit wine with me. Let's warm it up to celebrate."
It was Uncle Wang Wutong’s magic wine. They didn’t drink it last time, but they didn’t expect that this time they drank it to celebrate, to celebrate their killing of Wang Tongtian and their escape from death.
"Okay, I'll praise you." Qian Luo touched his head and found that he was soaked. She was also wet all over. She pinched a spell and both of them were dry in an instant. Because of the strange fire and the robes, they immediately felt warm.
She found herself treating Wang Nanxing like she treated Liu Xiaoqing, perhaps because they were a few years younger than her. She had actually learned to care for others. If Qian Daxue knew, she would definitely be shocked.
"The spell is amazing!" Wang Nanxing's sparkling eyes were filled with envy. He handed her the bottle of wine, "Sister Xiaoqing, you are so powerful and yet you still hide your skills!"
“Cough cough cough——”
Qian Luo almost coughed and wiped her lips. She didn't expect that this boy still remembered that she had hidden her cultivation level. Her cultivation level had been exposed in the secret realm long ago.
Wang Nanxing suddenly shouted: "Even the name is fake!"
Qianluo smiled: "..."
It was said right.
Wang Nanxing didn't dwell on this, just muttering about his parents. Qianluo pondered, "Let's go back to the District Chief's Palace and search for them one by one."
"good!"
Wang Nanxing bit the fruit he had taken out of his storage bag and looked at the snowflakes drifting outside and the howling north wind. "But it's snowing so hard. We can go out tomorrow. They're all dead anyway, so Mom and Dad should be safe."
Qianluo frowned after hearing this, as if she had forgotten something, but she couldn't remember what it was.
"By the way, where is the Jade Blood Silver Anaconda?"
Wang Nanxing stared at the girl's wrist. It was so white and thin that he could wrap his hand around it. "It's gone!"
When he saw her wrist, he felt a little strange and his face turned even redder. The handsome young man was panicked and at a loss, but Qianluo didn't notice his change.
Qianluo pulled her hand back and found a section of its tail sticking out of the spirit beast's bag. The Silver Anaconda lazily patted the back of her hand, as if to act coquettishly.
She wiped the water stains off the little snake, put it into the spirit beast bag, and tied it carefully: "The snake is going to hibernate. It's very cold outside. She hasn't recovered yet, so let her rest well."
"Oh oh!" Wang Nanxing glanced at the spirit beast bag and hesitated to speak.
As the spiritual wine entered her mouth, she felt a long, burning sensation, and her whole body was nourished by the spiritual energy. She digested it quietly and turned back after a while.
She noticed the boy staring at her spirit beast bag and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Wang Nanxing gestured, looking a little anxious: "That super fat cat is gone!"
Qianluo: “…” So this is what you forgot!
Oh no! Chi Zhao is still in the Colosseum! This guy couldn't find me even after chasing me to the District Mayor's Palace! He must be furious! I don't know how far the cave is from the District Mayor's Palace now.
This guy...feed him some strange fire to compensate him!
"Forget it, he should still be in the District Head's Palace. I'll sense his presence tomorrow when we go to look for your parents."
Seeing that the girl had arranged everything, he felt a sense of security. With red ears, the boy handed her the elixir and said, "Sister, eat more."
Qian Luo didn't take the spiritual replenishing pill. She had already drunk the spiritual wine, and her spiritual energy was almost replenished. She took a rejuvenation pill and swallowed it: "It has elixir poison, don't eat too much."
Reaching out his hand, he handed him the rejuvenation pill: "It's okay to eat less. You are injured too. Eat it."
"Ah, is that so?" Wang Nanxing's face flushed red, and he gently took the rejuvenation pill from her palm. "It's my fault for being so ignorant that I said the wrong thing."
When his fingertips touched the girl's delicate skin, he shuddered and quickly left, but her warmth still remained on his fingertips.
"Don't worry, I just found out about it not long ago." She looked into the distance and saw only the vast white earth, but what came to her mind was what happened between her and Aunt Peilan in the District 9 mine that day. Aunt Peilan also told her to eat less pills.
A great war is over, but people still have to move forward.
She handed him the remaining bottle of wine. The boy took it carefully, bit his lip, and stared at the bottle mouth hesitantly, as if he could stare a hole in it.
Qianluo was puzzled: "Drink? Aren't you cold?"
"Ah, okay..."
His face flushed, he wiped the bottle, tilted his head back and drank. The wine was not sweet, but it seemed sweeter than honey, sweet to the heart.
He was a little drunk, pestering the girl to talk, his lips glistening with water: "Sister, why did the secret realm collapse?"
Qianluo thought about it and didn't find anything strange. The Blood-Silver Anaconda had gone through so much trouble, but the secret realm hadn't collapsed. Could it be that just because she killed Wang Tongtian, the secret realm collapsed? This didn't make sense.
"I'm not sure. Perhaps the secret realm itself has a time limit, and we may have stayed there too long."
Wang Nanxing lowered her head, feeling somewhat ashamed. "Sister, I know you've done so much for me. You even got hurt saving my life, but the secret realm doesn't have the spiritual weapon you want. It's all my fault..."
Qian Luo patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. I know the spiritual weapon you mentioned might be fake. I killed Wang Tongtian not only for you, but also for my own selfish reasons. Besides, we came back alive, didn't we? There's no need to dwell on it."
Wang Nanxing touched the tattered storage bag in his hand and gritted his teeth: "Actually..."
His words were interrupted.
Qian Luo thought he wanted Wang Tongtian's storage bag. "Yes, after using the cleaning technique on Wang Tongtian's storage bag, the surface is still very smooth and exquisite. Your storage bag is indeed a little torn. Why don't you use Wang Tongtian's storage bag?"
The most exciting moment has arrived again, which is to open the enemy's storage bag! You can see how many low-grade spirit stones, magic tools, talismans, and elixirs are inside...
"But I can only give you a little bit of what's inside. I still have some use for me." Now that Wang Tongtian is dead, District 8 has no district chief and no one to preside over the situation. It will soon fall into chaos.
She has already decided to let Liu Xiaoqing, Jiang Shuyu, Shi Xiaoxiao and others come to take over District 8. They already have relevant experience and it will be convenient for them to handle the matter.
Besides, she had only been in District 8 for a few days and had no idea who would be suitable to handle these matters. She had originally been in District 8 to retrieve her old belongings, but she had unexpectedly run into Wang Nanxing, so she had no choice but to take on this task.
All the things in District 8 were finished, and she would go into seclusion for a while longer to sort out Wang Tongtian's storage bag carefully, confiscate some of it, and copy some of it to study carefully.
She had already seen the "Basic Formation Encyclopedia" and "Soul Consolidation Methods"...
Wang Nanxing said weakly: "No..."
"What is that?" Qian Luo raised her eyes and looked at the hesitant boy in front of her. Her eyes were as clear as the bright moonlight and moved her heart. "What are you going to say?"
Seeing the girl's cold and serious gaze, he lowered his head and tugged at the storage bag: "That's right, I want my sister to teach me some more spells. I feel so useless..."
He once vowed to try his best to stop a chariot with a mantis arm, but he was knocked unconscious on the way. When he woke up, he found himself in a secret realm, and she was also injured. He was the one who implicated her.
He found that he could do nothing but hide. In the secret realm, he was completely useless, and yet all the disasters were caused by him.
"My cultivation is too low, and I don't know many spells. Apart from the techniques passed down in my family, I am completely useless. I am a waste. It is me who has implicated you and my parents."
Qian Luo raised an eyebrow and picked out a few books from Wang Tongtian's storage bag: "You can copy these books and read them back home."
Wang Nanxing felt a surge of sweetness in her heart, her lips curled up, her eyes sparkling: "Sister, why are you so good to me? Aren't you afraid that I will kill people for the treasures? If you put all these things in front of me, I will be greedy too."
Hearing this, Qian Luo smiled with relief: "If you really do this, it means you are not a fool. But don't forget, there is a huge gap between your cultivation and mine."
This was obviously a joke, but Wang Nanxing felt sad again because the last sentence hurt him. His cultivation level was indeed far behind his sister's. It was truly like heaven and earth, one was in heaven and the other was in hell.
She is really excellent...
The young man had a pensive look on his face, with a trace of sadness in his eyes. He seemed to be hurt by her words and was feeling sad.
Qianluo shifted her body and continued to warm herself by the fire, ignoring him. She was completely baffled. How could Wang Nanxing be so sentimental? She was even more thoughtful than Liu Xiaoqing, Jiang Shuyu, and Shi Xiaoxiao. Liu Xiaoqing was easier to lead than him; whatever she said was true. She was a completely cheerful little sunshine.
Is this boy thinking too much?
In the secret realm, she lost track of time, talking a lot until she felt sleepy. It was getting dark, and it was getting colder outside. Qianluo took a cauldron-shaped magical instrument from Wang Tongtian's storage bag, enlarged it, and used it to cover the cave entrance, preventing the wind from blowing out the flames.
The wind was howling outside and snow was flying. She looked at the simple cave and swore secretly in her heart.
Next time, she must put a bed and a warm blanket, as well as some hot water and towels, into the storage bag. She no longer wants to live like a savage in a cave!
Next time if I have the conditions, I can buy spiritual food. If I can't eat earthly food, I can eat these spiritual foods. It is better than taking spiritual pills every day. Not only are they poisonous, but they are also quite unpalatable.
"You should rest." Qian Luo set up a small defensive formation that covered the cave, covered herself with the robe, closed her eyes, and practiced quietly.
In the cave, flames were flying everywhere. Wang Nanxing took out the bamboo tube from the storage bag and burned it. It made a crackling sound. He was shocked. He didn't expect the sound to be so loud.
He turned his head quickly and saw the girl with a calm expression and skin as white as snow. When she closed her eyes, she looked beautiful and gentle, with thin eyebrows and pink lips, as beautiful as a piece of warm white jade.
The girl who was decisive in killing the enemy and brave in facing difficulties, and seemed to never say the word failure, was so quiet and gentle at this moment.
"He's not much older than me..."
Why is it so powerful?
It seemed that she could only be an ordinary person looking up to her, and she had an urge to stand shoulder to shoulder with him. However, his cultivation was very poor, and his spiritual roots were not good, which always brought her trouble.
He glanced at the book in his hand, his fingers tightening as his eyes flickered with longing for the future. He wouldn't give up. He would continue to work hard on his training and study, and one day he would stand shoulder to shoulder with her!
Try hard to chase the sun in your heart and don’t want to stop for a moment.
He rubbed his cheeks and curled up beside her legs like a little animal. Although his mind told him not to get close to her, his body involuntarily moved closer to her.
His eyes flickered with dancing flames, and he smiled softly, his brows softened, feeling warm and at ease. He felt the joy of revenge, the relief of escaping death, the joy of being by her side.
After he fell asleep, Qianluo, who was sitting cross-legged, opened her eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood without any warning.
She wiped the blood, frowned, and covered the bleeding wound with her hand, frowning: "The wound is not healed..."
