Chapter 119
The spring water is very clear, so clear that you can see the hand under the water like a nimble fish swimming along the blue veins and the slender roots extending upward from the tree, little by little swimming to the roots.
The movement caused the spring water to flow, and ripples appeared on the water surface.
Wang Qianqiu lowered his eyes and looked at the clever and naughty little fish, allowing the little fish to wrap around the tree roots, trying to use its body to circle the roots to measure the thickness of the roots.
The little fish connected its head and tail and made another nimble U-turn, swimming upwards from the tree root. It seemed that it was using the tree root as its toy. After all, there was really nothing in the hot spring, only the tree root to play with.
Chen Zui was sitting next to Wang Qianqiu. He was not satisfied with the other party's calmness. The reason was simple: if he considered himself a human being, he would not react like this.
The small fish in the spring water entangled themselves around the tree roots, as if they were trying to strangle the roots with their own strength.
It seems that the little fish is in a bad mood. Perhaps it is because the tree roots did not express their joy at its arrival, so it is demonstrating here. Not only does it tighten the tree roots, but the little fish also keeps swimming upwards from the roots, trying to peel off a layer of bark.
For the little fish, this is such a hassle.
The tree roots finally reacted. After all, they were in this secret place, in this spring water full of spiritual energy. They were definitely not ordinary things.
The tree roots lifted up, probably to see where the little fish came from, so naughty.
Seeing that he had finally revived the tree root, the little fish became even more excited. He slid to the top of the tree root and put his head against it, rubbing it affectionately, keeping his head close to the tree root.
"elder brother."
Chen Zui stopped looking at the little fish playing mischievously in the spring water and turned to look at Wang Qianqiu, who looked like an immortal beside him.
Originally, he thought that humans would become indifferent after practicing for hundreds of years, but this was obviously not the case. He just called out to Wang Qianqiu in an ambiguous way.
Wang Qianqiu frowned slightly, never having thought that the doll could have this use. He leaned his whole body more relaxedly on the stone behind him, staring at the small fish swimming around the tree roots.
Unfortunately, this little fish cannot open its mouth, otherwise it would bite the tree root and make the tree root feel uncomfortable.
After this thought popped up in her head, she turned to look at Chen Zui, her eyes fell on his lips made of fruit pulp. Wang Qianqiu Xiu was not a ruthless person. He was a favored child of heaven who had a smooth life and had never wronged herself even a little.
But I think his puppet will get ahead of himself.
Just give up.
The little fish kept rubbing its head against the top of the tree root, rubbing out some sap from the top, which was different from the clearness of spring water.
"elder brother."
Chen Zui shouted like this again and nothing else happened.
Wang Qianqiu glanced at him, perhaps hiding some evil intentions, or perhaps simply reminding himself who was with him now...
When he looked away, he glanced into the spring water. His doll was so flat that he could see the bottom at a glance.
It's really a little bit off.
"Brother, I want one that's more majestic than yours."
The little fish swam to the roots of the tree to touch the two fruits.
Wang Qianqiu chuckled and said, "I'll make you one that can be wrapped around your waist twice. Are you satisfied?"
Chen Zui: "...Brother, you don't have to dote on me so much."
He's quite good at joking.
Aotian almost laughed because he imagined the scene and it was so cool!
The little fish swam around the tree roots for a long time, teasing out the sap and making the spring water turbid. However, soon as the spring water flowed, the hot spring became clear again.
The tree roots that had spit out sap drooped again.
The little fish stuck around for a while before swimming away. It kept looking back as if to say that it would come back to play with you next time.
——
On the other side, after Meng Changqing and Mo Xingchen left Yu Hong's residence, they rushed straight to Wang Qianqiu's residence. They had previously said with certainty that they would help Yu Hong keep the secret, but now they couldn't wait to tell Wang Qianqiu about this matter without delay.
Mo Xingchen: "Didn't Second Brother say that he would keep the secret for Junior Brother?"
His half catty is equivalent to Meng Changqing's eight ounces.
Meng Changqing shook the feather fan in his hand and said, "Ah, Junior Brother, you are wrong. I did say that I would find a way for you, Junior Brother. It's just that I am really not very knowledgeable, so I came to ask for advice from my senior brother who is not an outsider."
The two looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths raised.
Mo Xingchen: "Second Brother is right."
Meng Changqing: "Then I wonder if Junior Brother is going?"
Mo Xingchen: "In case the eldest brother finds out and needs help, I, as the elder brother, should also do something for the younger brother."
Meng Changqing: "Little Junior Brother, you are so lucky to have brothers like us."
Mo Xingchen: "Second Brother is right."
The two walked faster, wishing they could fly over directly, but when they reached the foot of the mountain, they were blocked outside by a defensive formation, which meant that the senior brother they were thinking about was not on the mountain.
But this is also common, their eldest brother is always out.
The two stood at the foot of the mountain somewhat disappointed. It was really sad that they couldn't share the news with the eldest brother as soon as possible...ah, no, it was really sad that they couldn't ask the eldest brother to help the younger brother as soon as possible.
The two of them quickly thought of another question and looked at each other at the same time.
Meng Changqing: "I wonder if Senior Brother will take the puppet with him?"
Mo Xingchen: "Just try it and you'll know."
He looked toward the mountain again, and with his cultivation, he sent out his voice: "Finally, I will tell you the answer."
The two waited.
When Liu Feiyun appeared, he knew that these two evil-hearted guys would definitely come and tell the eldest senior brother, but it seemed that the eldest senior brother was not there.
He turned around and was about to leave, but then stopped.
The eldest brother is not here. If the puppet is still there, wouldn’t it be a good opportunity to get rid of him?
Liu Feiyun walked over again: "What are you doing?"
Mo Xingchen and Meng Changqing looked at each other. No one had come down for such a long time. It seemed that the doll was not there. The eldest senior brother actually took him out. It was really enviable and jealous.
The two of them became unhappy and didn't want to bother with Meng Changqing anymore, so they left from the foot of the mountain.
Liu Feiyun snorted, then opened his voice: "The best!"
He paced back and forth outside the defensive formation, waiting until dark but no one came down. He guessed that the puppet had also been taken away by the eldest brother. Liu Feiyun left in disappointment, wondering what the eldest brother had done with the puppet?
I kicked the weeds on the ground, feeling unhappy.
Suddenly, he gave a wicked smile and went to play with his junior brother for a while.
——
Chen Zui and the others came out of the hot spring, put on their clothes again, and returned to the back of the phoenix.
The phoenix carried the two of them deeper into the secret realm. Chen Zui looked around and thought that the scenery he had seen along the way had already opened his eyes, but this place could really be described as a fairyland.
He saw many animals and plants with strange shapes, a bizarre world.
A bunch of flowers floated over from a distance. He looked carefully and found that it was not a flower, but a flower fairy. The flower fairy looked at them curiously, and bravely landed on a phoenix feather and was taken away by them.
Chen Zui looked at the thumb-sized flower elf with wings and wearing flower bud clothes.
very beautiful.
He held his palms out in front of him.
The flower elf stared at him and then flew over and landed in his palm. Wang Qianqiu glanced at it but did not stop it. The flower elf has no offensive power and is a peaceful creature.
Aotian: [Wow, so beautiful.]
I want to use this as my own virtual image, but why is its current virtual image a little octopus?
As the flower elf flapped its wings, golden powder fell. It was holding a small fork in its hand, and it turned the fork and placed it on Chen Zui's palm.
A totem appeared in Chen Zui's palm and disappeared in a flash.
"Brother, what is this?"
"Blessings from the Flower Goddess."
"Blessing of the Flower Goddess?"
The flower elf flew away, but not long after it flew away, two more flower elves appeared. They flew freely into the distance together.
Chen Zui returned to Wang Qianqiu and asked, "What's the use of the Flower God's blessing?"
Wang Qianqiu looked above his head.
Chen Zui raised his hand and touched something above his head. He took another step forward, lowered his head slightly and looked at himself through Wang Qianqiu's eyes, and saw green grass leaves on his head.
"This is?"
"Smart grass."
Chen most clearly felt that Wang Qianqiu was laughing when he said this.
He touched the blade of grass on his head: "Smart grass?"
"Maybe it thinks you are not smart enough, so it gave you this blessing." Wang Qianqiu looked at the thin round grass leaves on Chen Zui's head swaying in the wind.
And a little cute.
Aotian: [There is also this good stuff, I want it too. ]
Starry eyes.
Chen Zui put down his hand: "Will this always be there?"
Wang Qianqiu: "It will disappear in six hours."
Chen finally realized that he had been deceived by Wang Qianqiu. It was not because the flower fairy thought he was not smart enough, but because the flower fairy was the flower fairy of the smart grass and could not give him any other blessings.
They flew over mountains and rivers and came to a high mountain.
After getting off the phoenix, Wang Qianqiu said something in the phoenix's ear, and the phoenix flew away to play by itself.
Wang Qianqiu led Chen Zui forward. There was not even a road here, but Wang Qianqiu looked very familiar with the situation. Chen Zui followed him. When they reached the foot of the mountain, Wang Qianqiu stopped. Chen Zui tilted his body and looked forward from behind. The smart grass on his head swayed, and the ends of his black hair swayed.
He didn't see anything.
Wang Qianqiu suddenly put his arms around him from behind and picked him up easily.
Chen Zui:?
Although he didn't know what was going on, he still raised his hands and put them around Wang Qianqiu's neck.
Aotian: [Tsk tsk, I'm almost calling you Chen Jiaojiao. ]
Chen Zui: [A true top doesn't need to care about such small details.]
Aotian: [You are right, you are right, you have a smart grass on your head and you are the most right~]
When Wang Qianqiu flew forward a short distance, Chen Zui probably understood why Wang Qianqiu suddenly hugged him. It might be because that section of the road was muddy and he didn't want to dirty his doll.
Chen Zui: ...
Chen Zui had never enjoyed such treatment before.
Thinking about it this way, being a puppet is pretty good.
After that period, Wang Qianqiu really let him go, very naturally, as if this was what he, as the "master", should do.
A cave covered by weeds appeared in front of them. Wang Qianqiu pushed aside the weeds and motioned Chen Zui to go in. After Chen Zui walked in, not even a blade of grass was on his body.
He suddenly thought that if he and Wang Qianqiu were doing it, would he be afraid of getting tired and then do it himself?
Wang Qianqiu walked to the front of Chen Zui again. This feeling of being protected was quite new to Chen Zui. He had always been the one who rushed to the front to resist the dangers and sufferings of this world. If he was knocked down and didn't want to die, he would get up as soon as possible with bruises all over his body, and keep living while bleeding.
But he is not used to reminiscing.
So he always looked forward, and this time there was a person standing in front of him.
Chen Zui reached out and grabbed Wang Qianqiu's sleeve. He didn't grab his hand, but just grabbed his sleeve that was shaking as he walked. Wang Qianqiu's steps forward slowed down for a moment.
"Afraid of the dark?"
It was still a little dark in the cave.
Chen Zui is naturally not afraid of the dark, or rather, the night is the best stage for him to show his skills.
"Um."
He was very curious about what Wang Qianqiu would do after he answered like this.
Wang Qianqiu turned his wrist, and an octagonal glass lamp appeared in his hand, emitting a soft halo that illuminated the surroundings. He held the lamp, let Chen Zui hold his sleeve, and slowed down his pace forward.
Chen Zui glanced at the lamp that was spinning on its own. The beautiful pattern on the lampshade was projected onto the mountain wall, illuminating the star-like light on the mountain wall, creating a dreamlike scene.
Finally, Chen Zui looked at Wang Qianqiu.
The cave was very quiet, with only the occasional sound of dripping water, the echo of which created ripples in one's heart.
Aotian: [I can understand why you like him.]
This is real pampering.
Chen Zui: [He is not the target of the mission.]
Aotian sighed, lamenting that fate was the most frustrating thing.
Oh~ How come I am so talented that the smart grass has grown on my head?
Aotian began to look in the mirror.
They walked quite far into the cave, and the terrain went downhill.
"Brother, it seems like we are eloping."
Wang Qianqiu was surprised that his doll even knew about elopement. Was it the effect of the smart grass?
"Maybe it's trafficking."
"Brother, you are so humorous."
Chen Zui felt that Wang Qianqiu had a talent for dry humor.
Chen Zui had a feeling that they had all reached the center of the earth. Wang Qianqiu finally stopped. The terrain ahead was very open, and there was sunlight coming down from above. Chen Zui looked up and saw that it was actually open air.
If you look from above, this should be a huge sinkhole.
Wang Qianqiu handed the lantern to him. Chen Zui held the lantern and looked forward. Where the beam of light from the sky fell, there was a huge spider web. The spider web was woven in very thick layers.
The presence of spider webs means there must be spiders here, and any spider that can survive here must be quite powerful.
Chen looked around vigilantly.
Wang Qianqiu had already grasped the sword. It was an ice sword with thunder running through the blade.
He raised his sword and chopped at the spider web, and snowflakes and frost appeared around the sword. His movements were graceful and elegant like a painting, but they contained great danger.
The only thing Chen Zui could think of was "graceful as a startled swan and graceful as a flying dragon."
He also clenched the Lingyuan Whip tightly.
The spider web was very strong, and Wang Qianqiu had to chop it several times before he could cut it apart.
Chen Zui's ears moved, he heard a rustling sound, and his eyes rolled around to look around, and suddenly his gaze met several pairs of red eyes. Those eyes were in the dark, and if it were someone timid, he would have been scared to scream.
Chen Zui moved closer to Wang Qianqiu, and the eye also came out from the darkness, bringing with it its huge body.
Chen Zui had never seen such a big spider, and it was a colorful one at that. It looked very poisonous. He did not swing the whip at it immediately to avoid angering the spider. After all, he did not understand its habits, and it might be the kind with a good temper.
Wang Qianqiu: "Stop it."
Chen Zui then took action, lashing the spider with a whip in one hand and replacing the lamp in the other hand with a long sword, and fighting with the spider with the help of the light from above.
The spider raised one leg to block Chen Zui's whip, and at the same time spit out spider silk towards Chen Zui. The spider silk was red and looked dangerous.
Chen Zui ran in a Z shape, dodging the spider's silk and rushed to the front of the spider. The spider's legs were taller than him, so he swung the knife in his hand and chopped at the spider's legs.
This time he actually hit the spider, but only a shallow mark was left on its leg.
Chen Zui raised his eyebrows and retreated quickly. He swung the Lingyuan Whip in front of him to block the green spider silk that the spider spit out again. The Lingyuan Whip and the spider silk were entangled together, and the spider and Chen Zui both exerted force in their own direction.
Wang Qianqiu had already cut off one side of the spider web and was now cutting the other side.
Chen Zui narrowed his eyes and suddenly lost his strength. He was pulled over by the spider silk and even flew up. His high ponytail and red sleeves flew in the air, and the pendants on his waist and the bells in his hair made crisp and pleasant sounds.
Wang Qianqiu glanced at Chen Zui who was flying up like an eagle.
How courageous.
It is indeed pleasing to the eye and beautiful.
In this dangerous and exciting scene, Chen Zui's calmness and neat moves will make him look even more handsome.
Completely different from the one who loved to act like a spoiled brat.
Chen Zui's dark sharp eyes seemed calm, but excitement was surging underneath. The main reason why he was so successful as a mercenary was because he liked this life-threatening atmosphere and liked to do his best to kill the opponent.
Maybe he is not a good person at heart.
But this world does not require everyone to be a flawless good person.
The long sword in his hand emitted a cold and sharp light, which was not as strong as the murderous intent in his eyes. He had been pretending to be a good boy for too long recently and he needed to let go.
Taking advantage of the spider's silk to pull him over, he swung his sword in the air and stabbed the spider's eyes.
The spider's more than twenty eyes looked at Chen Zui at the same time. Its largest eyeball could even accommodate Chen Zui. To it, Chen Zui was as small as an ant, but this ant dared to challenge it.
Under the spider silk that had already wrapped around Chen Zui's whip in its mouth, it actually secretly spit out another purple spider silk. The spider silk was very thin, there was only one strand, like a sharp thorn.
He aimed at Chen Zui with all his might.
At the moment when Chen Zui's sword stabbed down, the purple spider silk was spit out towards Chen Zui's heart.
The speed is much faster than Chen Zui's.
After all, Chen Zui had only been practicing for a short time, and his cultivation level was there. Being able to fight with a monster of this level for several rounds was already an excellent performance.
First of all, if you can be fearless, you have already surpassed many people.
Even if many people have been practicing, they will still be frightened when they see this kind of strange beast.
Purple spider silk appeared in front of Chen Zui's heart at lightning speed.
Chen Zui had no time to dodge.
But even so, he remained calm, because as a puppet, he had no beating heart in his chest.
A figure flashed behind him, and the cold-faced Wang Qianqiu appeared with Piaoxue. He put one arm around Chen Zui's waist and pulled him into his arms, while holding a sword across Chen Zui's chest with the other hand.
"clang"
A sound.
It was the sound of purple spider silk hitting the sword.
Wang Qianqiu turned the sword tip upwards, and in less than a blink of an eye, several swords fell, cutting off the spider silk wrapped around the whip, and flew upwards with Chen Zui in his arms.
The smart grass on Chen Zui's head swayed and swept across Wang Qianqiu's face. They flew upwards in the beam of light from the sky. The spider stomped its feet in anger and spit out spider silk at them, but it couldn't reach them because of the height problem.
With a clear cry of the phoenix, the snow-white phoenix circled and flew down.
He took Chen Zui and the other two and fled far away.
Wang Qianqiu loosened his arms around Chen Zui and said, "It's not a good habit to fight without risking your life."
Chen Zui: "Brother will fix me."
She returned to her usual coquettish state of opening her mouth to act like a spoiled child.
"Brother, what are we going to do with that spider silk?"
Wang Qianqiu looked at his fair and clear face in the sunlight and reached out to pinch it.
"Weaving leather."
Chen Zui's leather is made of spider silk, which is not only strong but also waterproof and fireproof.
He carefully selected it after selecting and trying countless materials.
The effect did not disappoint him.
Chen Zui immediately understood: "So it is used to weave there."
"Did you take enough? Will it be insufficient? Should we go back and get some more?"
Wang Qianqiu increased the strength of the hand that was pinching his face, what a greedy guy.
——
At Chen Zui's urging, Fenghuang took the two back to Zhuxian Sect as quickly as possible.
However, before making that thing for Chen Zui, Wang Qianqiu planned to make the blue veins for him first.
After all, that thing cannot be made in a day or two, it requires careful carving, and leather weaving is a huge project.
Adding veins to it is much simpler.
There are still some materials left.
Chen Zui happily accepted it. Inside Tingxue Pavilion, Chen Zui only had the body chain left on him.
He glanced at the material placed on the brocade to make the blue veins, which looked like some kind of plant.
A thin-bladed knife appeared in Wang Qianqiu's hand.
"I'm going to cut your skin open first, and then I'll sew it up again."
It sounds painful, but Chen Zui doesn't feel any pain yet.
"Don't you need a reference, brother?"
He raised his hand and touched Wang Qianqiu's lower body through her clothes.
Wang Qianqiu responded by placing the tip of the knife against the left side of his abdomen.
"Don't move."
Chen Zui put his hand down. He was still looking forward to what was about to happen. After all, most people probably wouldn't have the chance to see their skin being cut open with their own eyes.
Wang Qianqiu looked focused, and with the help of magic, he easily cut open Chen Zui's skin made of spider silk. Of course, no blood flowed out.
The paddle in Wangqianqiu was not that deep, but it was quite long, all the way to the flat area.
His hand landed on something flat.
It's so delicate that people want to rub it.
Chen Zui touched the cut wound and put his finger in, curious about what was inside.
Aotian: How exciting and weird this scene is.
Chen Zui didn't find anything before Wang Qianqiu took his hand away.
Wang Qianqiu picked up the material used to make the blue veins, put it in through the cut, and then pushed it inward.
Push to the middle position.
Chen Zui could even see his belly being propped up by his hands.
It's really amazing.
Chen Zui was standing. He couldn't sit because his abdomen would curl up if he sat.
So Wang Qianqiu was squatting.
A position that is perfect for him, but unfortunately he is not there yet.
