Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 253 I gave you a chance but you didn’t use it

Phew~~

The night wind rolled up the residual clouds, occasionally blocking the moon, causing the dunes to flicker. The unknown beasts trapped in the quicksand turned into bones under the ravages of the wind and the scorching sun. Only their heads poked out of the surface, giving this inaccessible place The desolate land was dyed with a sense of eerieness.

Not far away from the animal bones, a round-faced girl covered in a cloak held a probe rod made of several iron rods connected and pierced into the quicksand to carefully explore the situation underground. Occasionally, she would pull out the probe rod to check the gravel, Soil texture texture.

The job of looking for opportunities is very boring, it only has to do with luck, everything else is secondary. Even if the Eight Lords come, if you are unlucky and don't find the right place, it will be in vain.

Xie Qiutao felt that she was one of those very lucky people, and she would definitely meet them in the sand sea. Unfortunately, the cruelty of reality made her understand what it means to be "unkind, and treat everything as a stupid dog"; she searched for many people in the sand sea continuously. On that day, not to mention the fairy sword that came to my door, I didn't even encounter ordinary ores and sand spiritual beasts.

Of course, this also has something to do with Xie Qiutao following his feelings.

In fact, Xie Qiutao didn't feel anything special. He just counted with his fingers and felt that a certain direction was pleasing to his eyes, so he walked in that direction. At best, it was God's will, at worst, it was just wandering aimlessly.

I have studied the map in Feisha City. Most of the monks who come here to hunt for treasures go deeper into the sand sea, where the chance of finding them is higher. But Xie Qiutao's thoughts are different from ordinary people - everyone knows that the depths of the sand sea are inaccessible, and they will search deeper if they want to find them. Those big bosses of the Immortal Family who are hiding in retreats may do the opposite and turn the retreats into The location is placed directly outside, which is called 'the most dangerous place is the safest place'.

Now no one has found the burial place, and this idea is not without merit, but unfortunately, it is not that easy for a person to quietly hunt for treasures outside.

The waning moon was in the sky, and it became dark again in the quicksand.

Xie Qiutao, carrying an iron lute on his back, stood next to the animal bones and carefully looked at the semi-wet sand dug out with a probe rod. Before he could get any results, there was suddenly some strange movement on the back of the dune in the distance.

Buzz buzz~~

The ground trembled slightly, and the already soft sand that could not be touched quickly rolled like a mudslide. The animal carcass half buried in the ground completely sank into the quicksand, and Xie Qiutao's feet also sank into the sand.

Sensing something strange, Xie Qiutao threw down the pole, took off the iron pipa from behind, held it upside down with both hands, looked at the sand dune, and scolded:

"There is such a shady person behind the scenes. How could Fellow Daoist be so ungrateful to martial ethics?"

The sky and the earth were silent, and there seemed to be nothing but yellow sand and moonlight.

However, the spell of the Sand Transformation Curse is easy to identify, even some spirit beasts can do it. However, spirit beasts do not deliberately conceal their whereabouts when hunting. Only monks can do this.

Xie Qiutao waited for a moment, until the sand-melting curse stopped and she was completely trapped, and only five figures appeared on the ridge line.

Looking through the moonlight, the five of them were all men, wearing hats and cloaks and carrying swords. They were dressed in standard Central Continent swordsman attire, with scarves covering their faces. The leading man was taller and had a sword on his shoulder. Go up, eyes wild.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, there was no one around, and the magicians were using their hands and covering their faces with black scarves. You could tell what this battle was about at a glance.

Xie Qiutao frowned, glanced from left to right, and said:

"Fellow Daoists, please don't mess with the wrong people. I am the direct disciple of Yingyang Immortal Palace in Huajunzhou. The eldest lady of Jiuzongjing Terrace is my senior sister who loves my sisters. The young master of Tiezu Mansion, Shangguan Jiulong, is the one I worship. Brothers who have done a good job, have you heard of Lord Linyuan? That is my protector..."

The five wild cultivators on the sand dune were stunned before they could speak.

The man who led the fight against the sword was called Zhao Qu, an Independent Cultivator who hung out in the lower reaches of Lianjiang River. He had no special background. This time he heard that there was a chance birth in Shahaili, so he brought a bunch of friends over to try his luck.

But Zhao Qu came here to try his luck, not to find the burial ground.

The bone burial ground must be occupied by high-level monks. Outsiders can't even take a sip of the soup. If they go to find it, they are courting death.

Zhao Qu and others know this truth, but there are always some whimsical stupid people in the world who don't know, thinking that they are blessed with great blessings, and come here alone when their heads are hot.

In the Nine Sects, if you kill people and seize treasures, as long as they are not discovered by the opponent's master, then it is for free, especially in Central Continent.

Most of the Central Continent monks had no sect to rely on, and wandering around in this inaccessible place seemed to Zhao Qu to be an opportunity to walk. Finding these people was much easier than finding the burial ground. Zhao Qu and others searched for half a month outside the sand sea, and made a lot of money.

Although this method made money quickly, the person who was mistaken was killed on the spot, so Zhao Qu and others did not take it lightly.

Tonight, I found another monk who was alone in the sand. Zhao Qu was very cautious and did not take action directly. Instead, he tested the monk from a distance to see the other person's reaction. If the situation was not good, he would flee.

But when he heard Xie Qiutao's outrageous statement of "self-reporting his family status", most of Zhao Qu's caution disappeared on the spot.

The direct descendant of Yingyang Immortal Palace?

Surprised that the young masters of the terrace are sisters?

Are the young masters of the Iron Clan Mansion brothers?

Is Lord Linyuan the protector?

With this background, if he goes to Sword Emperor City as a guest, Jiang Chengjian, the lord of Sword Emperor City, will probably have to go out and greet him as "his nephew". Will he need to dig for treasure outside the sand sea?

Zhao Qu walked down the sand dune slowly and stood still, looking at the little female cultivator in front of him with his sword:

"I didn't expect it to be a girl's family. It's rare for a girl to wander around the sand sea alone. You said you are the eldest lady of Feisha City. We probably have to think about it. Are you talking about such a lie?"

Xie Qiutao was half sunk in the sand, frowned at Zhao Qu, and said warily:

"Seriously, don't blame me for not warning you."

Zhao Qu looked at Xie Qiutao's face full of freckles and sighed:

"With your appearance, you can be a high-ranking fairy, and I am the Sword Emperor of the Central Continent. I don't even look at myself in the mirror to see how I look. Are you worthy?"

Xie Qiutao's face darkened - her appearance was disguised, but her figure wasn't that bad? What kind of look...

Zhao Qu was too lazy to talk nonsense and said directly: "We only rob money, not life. Throw down your belongings. Seeing that you are young and a woman, I will leave you a way to live."

Independent Cultivator robs wealth, but there is no saying that life can be saved. If the hatred is not eradicated, someone may come to the door in a few years and scatter the ashes. This statement is obviously to induce Xie Qiutao to give up resistance.

Xie Qiutao looked like he was inexperienced in the world. He hesitated and threw the iron pipa and the small package on his shoulder a few feet away.

Zhao Qu smiled when he saw this, holding his sword, he walked slowly towards the quicksand...

——

"Chi chi chi~..."

More than a hundred miles away, the dumplings, dyed sandy yellow, flapped their little wings vigorously and flew across the night sky with lightning speed. They bumped into Shangguan Lingye's soft clothes and stopped. They gestured to the west with their wings, urging Zuo Lingquan.

Shangguan Lingye caught Tuanzi with his hand. From his expression, he knew that something very critical was going on in the west. Tuanzi sprayed himself into a small piece in the East China Sea. Now he doesn't have much fighting power. He ran back obviously to ask for help, but for whom he asked for help? Not sure, she was a little confused.

Tang Jingxuan and Jiang Yi were in front of the ancestors, and Wu Qingwan was staying in the sky. Zuo Lingquan didn't remember anyone whom Tuanzi knew nearby, but Tuanzi was so anxious that he kept urging him to hurry over, which meant that this person was related to him.

"This place is not far from Feisha City. Is it possible that your fifth brother and the others are here too?"

Zuo Lingquan's expression changed when he heard this. If something happens to Fifth Brother outside, the third uncle and the third aunt will blame him to death. He didn't have time to think too much, he jumped up and galloped towards the west:

"Go and take a look first."

The situation was unclear and the matter seemed quite urgent. Shangguan Lingye would not care about the defense between men and women at this time. Seeing that Zuo Lingquan's sword was flying too slowly, he grabbed Zuo Lingquan's shoulder.

Bang——

There was a thunderous explosion in the night sky.

Shangguan Lingye's speed suddenly increased to the extreme, and the strong push on his back made the unprepared dumpling hit the skirt of his clothes, almost burying it into his plump chest.

Zuo Lingquan experienced it once, but still couldn't adapt to it. His originally serious face was instantly distorted by the wind, and his beard was blown straight. "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo According Accordingtae.

Although the ride experience is extremely poor, the amazing speed covers up all flaws.

In just a moment, Shangguan Lingye had already crossed a hundred miles. Halfway there, he noticed the weak spiritual energy fluctuations ahead. When he approached the target, his speed suddenly slowed down and he silently approached a sand dune half a mile away.

The fake beard on Zuo Lingquan's face was blown into chaos, and he didn't have time to tidy it up. He carefully held the sword and walked against the wind on the sand. As soon as he advanced not far, he smelled the pungent smell of blood.

It was the smell of human blood, mixed with the smell emanating from various organs in the body and even the brain. It was nauseating. Before even seeing the situation behind the dune, one could imagine the horrific scene there.

There was no sound behind the dune, no fighting sounds or spiritual energy fluctuations. It seemed that the fight was over.

Zuo Lingquan's heart tightened, and he sped up and arrived at the Qiu Ridge Line. The scene they saw shocked both of them.

A huge circular crater appeared in the sand over a hundred feet below the dune, like a meteor crater formed by a meteor falling from the sky and hitting the ground.

Broken limbs and pieces of flesh were everywhere in the crater. Blood seeped into the gravel, turning the sand into a dark red color. There was still blood that gathered in the center of the crater, turning into a small pool of blood in the compacted pit.

White bones were mixed with broken animal bones, and a broken sword blade could be vaguely seen stuck in the ground, as well as a blood-stained iron pipa, lying alone on the sand.

The petite figure wrapped in a cloak moved slowly in the large pit full of blood. It looked like it was walking unsteadily, and you could tell who it was from its figure.

Xie Qiutao? !

Zuo Lingquan was furious and wanted to rush over quickly to protect the fragile and petite poor girl, but when he looked carefully, he found...

He found Xie Qiutao squatting on the ground and moving slowly, holding half of the hilt of the sword in his hand. He covered his nose and picked up the rags on the ground, rummaged for debris, and occasionally threw them aside with disgust, muttering:

"Why are you so unwilling to resist the beating? The white jade beads were smashed... If I had known, I would have been gentler..."

"..."

Zuo Lingquan's expression froze, and his fearful look suddenly turned into words that were difficult to express. He opened his mouth, then looked at the dumpling squatting on Shangguan Lingye's chest, and spread his hands slightly, which probably meant:

"That's it? A few blind Independent Cultivators kicked the iron plate and made my blood boil. Are you so anxious?"

Tuanzi squatted on his tall clothes, spread his little wings and looked at Zuo Lingquan with a very dissatisfied attitude, "Chiji!" he said twice, probably saying:

"I asked you to run quickly and come here to save the beauty. It's okay now. All the girls have been beaten. Birds gave you a chance but you didn't use it~"

One person and one bird are not on the same channel, so they cannot exchange opinions with each other, but there is no problem in scaring outsiders.

Xie Qiutao is using the bone-touching technique seriously to see if he can find something good so that he can get back his money this time. After all, the cultivation way of "Law Treasure rings, ten thousand taels of gold", half-step Youhuang makes a shot with all his strength, and the spiritual energy consumed is converted into white jade beads, at least more than a hundred pieces. .

Just now, she was ridiculed for her ugly appearance, and she used too much force to smash several Spiritual Weapons. Before Xie Qiutao found the original items, she heard birdsong in the distance.

Xie Qiutao looked simple and simple, but she was extremely alert when she was outside the house. She had just used the Shasha Curse, and she could judge the opponent's skill level from the scale of the spell, so she didn't run away; but the bird call was too sudden, and it was impossible to judge With her opponent's cultivation level, she rushed out in the opposite direction without thinking, first distanced herself, and at the same time glanced behind her.

Looking at it this way, it's amazing.

On the sand dunes, a bearded man with a sword was standing against the wind, with sword eyebrows, tiger eyes and a hooked nose. He looked fierce and horizontal. He looked like a martial lunatic who had no relationship with women.

Beside him is a slender scholar with a soft face holding a folding fan. He looks like a monk who practiced evil skills and made himself male and female; even the screaming sparrow is ugly and not pleasing at all. .

The other party seemed not to be trifled with, and he didn't know him. Xie Qiutao naturally thought that he was here with Zhao Qu and others to seek revenge, and wanted to leave immediately.

Shangguan Lingye didn't expect to meet Xie Qiutao, and hesitated for a moment. When he saw that his disguise scared her away, he shouted;

"Thank you girl."

Xie Qiutao was startled when he heard the voice, stopped quickly, with surprise in his eyes, turned around and said:

"Sister Shangguan?"

"It's me, why are you here?"

"Honorable Master Shangguan told me to go east. I wandered around and came here, hehe~"

Although Xie Qiutao was kidnapped by Shangguan Lingye, she was blessed by misfortune and had a relationship with Shangguan's ancestors, so she was naturally not wary of Shangguan Lingye. She walked quickly to the sand dune, looked at Shangguan Lingye's attire curiously, and then looked at him. The bearded man next to him:

"Who is this fairy?"

Wu Qingwan said that Zuo Lingquan was so dressed that even her own mother could not recognize her, she was definitely not joking.

Zuo Lingquan couldn't take off the disguise, so he could only shake his head and smile:

"At any rate, we lived and died together. I didn't expect to meet again. Miss Xie wouldn't even recognize me."

Xie Qiutao had just seen the lineup of these two people, and guessed it was Zuo Lingquan, but her appearance was so eye-catching, she couldn't believe it. Hearing the voice confirming her identity, her eyes lit up, she came to her and said:

"It turns out that you are really Zuo Jianxian. Let me just say, why do you dress yourself up so ugly?... It's not that you're ugly, it's just... just not good-looking."

The voice is still sweet and pleasant, but the words are really not very nice.

Zuo Lingquan stroked the big beard on his face, and felt that with this face of having to support himself and not being able to eat soft food, he lost his affinity when talking to girls, and he couldn't say it was the murder of baby Lingye, he could only be open-minded. :

"No matter how good-looking you are, it's just a skin. What matters about a person is the inside. As long as the soul is interesting, it doesn't matter what you look like."

Xie Qiutao was alone outside, keeping her face hidden all the time, she agreed with this sentence very much, nodded and said:

"This is reasonable. I also think that inner beauty is more important than physical beauty. Just now these evil men came to rob me, and I was worried that such a pleasant girl like me would make them have evil thoughts. But they actually let me I look in the mirror, I'm so blind, no wonder I'm dead..."

This sentence was obviously a joke, Shangguan Lingye could hear the corners of his mouth curled up, and then said:

"Miss Xie is funny and very lovable, but forget it. Without his handsome face and straightforward manner, I'm afraid not many fairies will like him."

Zuo Lingquan naturally disagrees with this: "I grow up like this, and I also have Spirit Ascension swordsmanship, how can no girl like it."

Xie Qiutao had a good feeling for Zuo Lingquan, and nodded with a smile:

"That's natural. Just when the name of Central Continent Stegosaurus is revealed, many fairies pounce on it. Besides, although this appearance has nothing to do with handsomeness, it is masculine and domineering, similar to the last portrait; I heard that outside Many old female fairies like this kind of male monk, saying yes... saying yes..."

The following words were a bit naughty. Xie Qiutao realized something was wrong at this point, stopped talking, brought the ugly dumpling over, and touched it intimately, pretending that nothing had happened.

Zuo Lingquan is someone who has experienced it, and he understands the meaning as soon as he hears it, which is a little funny.

Shangguan Lingye is old, but he has been staying in the deep palace and not eating the fireworks of the world. He knows very little about the affairs between men and women, so he has been reading erotic pictures recently, but the erotic pictures are all about technical moves, and there are no She didn't understand the dirty joke for a while and said doubtfully:

"Say what?"

Tuanzi was also curious: "Ji?"

Xie Qiutao has been traveling abroad for many years, so she naturally knows some of the more vulgar sayings from hearsay. When a fairy from a well-known and upright family like Shangguan Lingye asked, she was embarrassed to say it, and said shyly:

"It's nothing."

Shangguan Lingye looked at Zuo Lingquan again.

Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye’s babbling relationship means they are no longer shy about these topics and said with a smile;

"Rough guys are not attractive but useful. A gentle scholar, he looks good, but he can't let go. Little girls like it, but older girls don't like it..."

Shangguan Lingye was very smart, and he understood everything at once. He suddenly realized it, shook his head and said:

"This statement is not true, I just like...ahem..."

Zuo Lingquan raised his eyebrows and asked curiously:

"What kind of man does the concubine like?"

Xie Qiutao was a talkative person and could chat all day long. She was very interested in this kind of gossip topic and came up to him and said;

"Yes, sister Shangguan, can you tell me?"

How could Shangguan Lingye reveal his true feelings in front of Zuo Lingquan, especially when Xie Qiutao was still in front of her, so she changed the subject and said:

"Don't talk about these digressions. Miss Xie, what happened just now? Tuanzi came back in a hurry. I thought you had encountered a strong enemy, so I came here to help."

Xie Qiutao scratched Tuanzi's belly and said gratefully:

"I made you worry, but there was nothing wrong just now, it was just a few blind Independent Cultivators who robbed me, and I was good at it, but I was naturally resistant to beating, so I stood there and let them not be able to cut them, so I beat them down Already..."

Zuo Lingquan spread his hands: "Where are you hitting the ground? It's broken. We orthodox monks, when we kill people, we either shatter our bones, or seal our throats with a sword. If this happens, people will easily be misunderstood as demons and heretics."

"Hey~ Confidence is a bit hard to attack. The main reason is that the leader inside is of a certain level, and his body skills are very good. He didn't hit a few hits, so he cleared the field directly. But the leader doesn't seem to be dead. I just counted it. Come on. Five people were killed, only eight broken legs, one missing, I don’t know if it was broken or if it ran away.”

When Shangguan Lingye heard this, he frowned slightly and carefully sensed the surroundings. Indeed, there were only four broken corpses, and no one else was found. She thought for a while:

"If something slips through the net, we may attract reinforcements. The Central Continent is not our sphere of influence, so let's leave first."

Xie Qiutao felt that the chance of those wild cultivators recruiting big shots was almost non-existent, but it would be too shameful to stay and touch the corpses, so he left the sand dunes with them...

——

"Huh...huh..."

There was no light or fire in the unfathomable underground cave, only the sound of heavy breathing echoed.

Zhao Qu, who was seriously injured, was lying on the ground, recalling the female devil who used the pipa as a hammer and killed people without blinking an eye, and was still frightened at this time.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhao Qu would never have imagined that a girl's family would be so strong that an iron lute could be swung like an octagonal hammer in the hands of a swordsmith. If he hadn't been close to the earth in the Five Elements, his skills in escaping from the earth would have been turned into minced meat.

But at least he escaped.

Zhao Qu didn't know how he escaped. He only knew that he couldn't escape the last time, so he dived into the ground with all his might, and was engulfed by quicksand, making it difficult to distinguish up, down, left, and right, and finally landed here.

After lying on the ground and resting for a long time, Zhao Qu suppressed his thoughts, took out the lighting beads, and looked around.

The place he was in was a stone room with a futon in the middle. Sitting on the futon was a white skeleton with a long black sword stuck next to it.

It was a very simple environment that could be seen at a glance, but Zhao Qu's pupils suddenly dilated, and his heartbeat almost stagnated.

Because of this scene, I don’t know how many monks are obsessed with it and think about it day and night, but they will never encounter it in their lifetime.

! !

Zhao Qu instantly forgot what happened just now, and only remembered the adventures and legends that he had heard before—chance, soaring to the sky, fame in the Central Continent, smooth journey of longevity...

Zhao Qu had fantasized about it before, but never thought that he would actually have such a day!

He endured the pain and got up, quickly ran over and grasped the hilt of the sword.

But the next moment, Zhao Qu realized that he was thinking too much.

Because the moment he grasped the hilt of the sword, he noticed that the gloomy white bones next to him seemed to have flames beating in the deep eye holes.

It was like a look from thousands of years ago, staring at him from the endless abyss, with even a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Zhao Qu understood something. He stood frozen in place as if he had fallen into an ice cave. His last words in his life were:

"Senior, you can't see the body of this junior, how about I go and bring you a good embryo?"

This sentence is very smart, and it is already his most likely way to survive.

It's a pity that if he goes out, who knows whether he will bring an embryo to seize his body or an enemy who comes to crush his ashes?

The stone room became quiet, and there was no sound anymore...
