"Tick...tick..."

The icy and smelly water fell drop by drop on Zhao Ying's face. He frowned and opened his eyes with difficulty.A few rays of light shot down from nowhere, allowing him to see his surroundings clearly.He and Xin Zou were lying on a huge rock, and on the stone walls around them were dense layers of vines.These vines covered all the areas he could see, enclosing him and Xin Xiao like a cage.

Look closely, these vines are no ordinary plants.Under the dense branches and leaves of vines, there are many malicious things dormant in it.But he didn't care about these gadgets. He took out the dagger in his pocket and was always ready.

Zhao Ying looked around with extremely provocative eyes. He lowered his head and stared at the light blue dagger in his hand. He hasn't had enough of it yet.

He got up and walked in front of Xin Xiao who was still sleeping there.Zhao Ying stretched out his hand and patted Xin Xiao's face without knowing how hard it was, "Diaomin, are you dead?"

He waited patiently for a few seconds. Seeing no one answered, he knelt down and pulled out the dagger.Zhao Ying smiled, this is also an opportunity, isn't it?He roughly lifted Xin Zou's shoulders, forcing Xin Zou to show his neck.Looking at the half of Xin Xiao's neck exposed, Zhao Ying's smile deepened.This opportunity was given by the troublemaker himself, so I can't blame him.

He stuck the dagger on Xin Hao's neck artery, and just when he was about to slash down hard, a trace of blood suddenly spilled from the corner of Xin Hao's mouth.Zhao Ying was taken aback for a moment, he put down the dagger and turned Xin Xiao's face away.He wiped the corner of Xin Xiao's mouth vigorously with his index finger, and he put his finger close to his nose to sniff.It's the smell of blood, yes, is this guy injured?

……

Thinking about the reason why this guy was injured, Zhao Ying hesitated a little.After all, if it wasn't for saving him, this troublemaker wouldn't have become like this.He stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, a little undecided.

At this moment, Xin Zou actually opened his eyes.Xin Zou coughed a few times, looked at Zhao Ying and smiled, and said in a slightly weak voice, "Taking advantage of others' danger is not what a gentleman does."

Zhao Ying's body froze, and his hand holding Zhao Ying's shoulder suddenly loosened.After hearing the sound of someone's head hitting the stone slab, he murmured with some regret: "It's not dead."

"almost."

Xin Zou didn't care about Zhao Ying's low-level provocation, he coughed a few more times, and sat up from the ground with difficulty.In order to save Zhao Ying, he interrupted the breaking formation, and was almost eaten back by the phantom formation.As a result, as soon as he woke up, he was attacked with a dagger by this white-eyed wolf like Zhao Ying.He didn't wake up on purpose, but he didn't expect that this extremely egotistical person still had some conscience left.

"That's really a pity." Zhao Ying kicked Xin Zou's backpack in dissatisfaction, turned around and took the dagger to chop the vines on the stone wall to vent his anger.

Xin Xiao didn't care about him, he sat cross-legged on the ground, looked around, and then began to close his eyes.He needs to adjust the spiritual power in his body now. He was interrupted suddenly when he broke the formation before, and the reverse cycle of spiritual power caused him internal injuries.Every part of Gu Lie's body is filled with spiritual power, and he is most afraid of being distracted when breaking the formation.Especially for a person with strong spiritual power like him, once the cycle is reversed, it is equivalent to being beaten with all his strength by another self.Fortunately, the power of the phantom formation was not strong this time, although he was injured, it was not serious.

While he was adjusting his spiritual power, the cub walked out from the weapon space without authorization.Seeing that its master was seriously injured, it anxiously circled around Xin Xiao, and even wanted to transfer its spiritual power to Xin Xiao.

It's not in vain.Xin Zou opened his eyes, seeing the anxious look of the cub, he felt relieved.He raised his hand and touched the back of the cub's head, and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Zhao Ying's haughty voice behind him.

"Ugly thing, why are you so anxious, he's not dead yet." Zhao Ying has always liked the cub in his heart, and when he saw the cub coming out, he put away his dagger and walked over quickly.He slapped Xin Xiao's hand off the cub's head with a slap, and hugged the cub brutally.

The cub whined, and couldn't help turning its elbows away again.Zhao Ying took the initiative to show his kindness so much, it was so happy that it almost forgot its master's name.

Xin Zou stared blankly at his hand that was patted aside, and then looked at the man and beast on the other side, and he stood up helplessly.He tried to seal off half of his spiritual power just now, and now his body is feeling much better, and it is still possible to support him to walk the entire Qiongqi Tomb.

He just wanted to call Zhao Ying to go, but Zhao Ying teased the cub so much that he unconsciously laughed.Xin Zou looked over there and saw that Zhao Ying was throwing the cub into the sky, and he could see that this kind of prank made him happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go out." Xin Zou stood aside and stared at Zhao Ying for a long time before reminding him.

Zhao Ying quickly suppressed the smile on his face, he put the cub gently on the ground, and responded with some reluctance.

"Oh." Zhao Ying sat down on the ground, and threw the dagger in his hand towards Xin Xiao, regardless of whether Xin Xiao would be injured by the dagger. "Get rid of these things first." Zhao Ying raised his chin and pointed at the tentacles and bugs crawling out of the vines, his tone gloating.

When he was scratching the vines with the dagger just now, he specially helped Xin Xiao wake up these little things.These tentacles and bugs grow attached to the surrounding stones. Generally, no one takes the initiative to provoke them, and they will not easily leave these stones.Fearing that these things would shrink back, he also scratched and killed a few of them, provoking the wrath of these low-level spirits.

Although the aura of the bugs and tentacles was not strong, it was better than those bats before... Zhao Ying glanced at Xin Hao, and it was more interesting than him doing it himself.

Seeing Xin Zou surrounded by layers of white slender tentacles, Zhao Ying rubbed his arms in disgust.Ugh, this stuff is really disgusting.

Zhao Ying had a great time watching the excitement here, but Xin Xiao felt a little uncomfortable here.All the tentacles hiding behind the vines stretched out and surrounded Xin Xiao who was holding the dagger. The stench mixed with the sticky mucus made it suffocating.Obviously angered by Zhao Ying's trick, the tentacles rushed over from all directions.Before Xin Xiao could react, the slender tentacles pierced directly into his flesh suddenly.

The white tentacles have the power completely opposite to its soft body. They are like long and thin steel wires like hair strands, piercing Xin Xiao's legs with holes in an instant.Xin Zou's face darkened, the answer is obvious from who made this masterpiece.The foreign body churned in his flesh, and he took a soft breath in pain.Seeing that these tentacles were about to go up, he quickly took out two blue talismans and placed them on both sides of his legs. Under the suppression of the spiritual power of the blue talismans, the tentacles shrank into dryness in an instant and fell off Xin Xiao's skin.

But soon, the tentacles that landed stood up again as if soaked in water, like strands of hair that hadn't been taken care of for decades.Xin Zou really had a headache watching it. He had just blocked half of his spiritual power, and he never thought that Zhao Ying would cause him such trouble.Xin Zou grabbed the dagger and cut off all the tentacles that were close to him.

But he didn't expect that the mucus that flowed out after the tentacles were cut off would be the food of the group of black bugs.Whenever he cut off some tentacles, the bugs that had been lying on the wall would lie on the slime one after another, and he didn't even have a place to set his feet.Although these black worms don't seem to have much attack power, if they accidentally step on them, the sound of the worm body exploding will make the scalp tingle.

Just as Zhao Ying was watching the show with a happy face, Xin Zou suddenly split a bunch of tentacles and walked towards him with a dark face.Xin Zou ignored the tentacles following quickly behind him and the creaking bugs under his feet, he approached Zhao Ying, and asked in a cold voice, "Are you happy?"

Zhao Ying was taken aback for a moment, then nodded as a matter of course. "That's natural."

Sure enough, this guy is stubborn.Xin Xiao looked at Zhao Ying expressionlessly, he only paused for a few seconds, and the tentacles behind him swarmed.Seeing that the tentacles were getting closer and closer, Xin Xiao looked as if he hadn't noticed anything.Zhao Ying naturally wouldn't remind him kindly, he stared straight at Xin Zou, wanting to see what this person would do next.

The moment the tentacles were about to touch Xin Zou, the dagger in Xin Zou's hand suddenly transformed into a big sword glowing with blue light.Xin Zou didn't look back, he swung his hand holding the big sword back, and countless slender white tentacles were cut off by the big sword at this moment.Zhao Ying was shocked. He didn't expect Xin Xiao to hide such a trick.While lamenting Xin Xiao's strength in his heart, he was vaguely unwilling.

I don't know if it was because he was very angry, or what, Xin Xiao let out a snort and squatted down to scoop up a handful of mucus from the tentacles with his hands.

"It's best if you're happy." Xin Zhui raised his slime-stained hand, leaned forward, and wiped the slime from his hand onto Zhao Ying's face without the slightest hesitation.

"Troublemaker you!"

Zhao Ying didn't expect Xin Zou to follow him in this trick, and he touched his face with his hand in disbelief.The mucus had a disgusting stench, and Zhao Ying felt numb all over after smoking it.He glared at Xin Zou fiercely, then leaned forward and pulled Xin Zou's clothes, vigorously wiping his face clean.

The creaking sound was getting closer, Zhao Ying glanced at the source of the sound, and his eyes widened immediately.There was mucus on his face, and the bugs that fed on the mucus rushed over immediately.Seeing Xin Xiao calmly walking on the insects, Zhao Ying only felt his teeth sore.

This trickster actually dared to trip him up!

Xin Zou stretched out his hand to pull him up, and he asked lightly, "Are you happier now?"

Zhao Ying didn't speak, he stared at Xin Zou angrily, and wanted to attack Xin Zou with a wave of his hand.Xin Zou sneered at Zhao Ying's behavior, and he firmly grabbed Zhao Ying's extended wrist.

"It's too late if you don't go."

After finishing speaking, Xin Zou didn't care whether Zhao Ying agreed or not, he grabbed Zhao Ying with one hand, and swung the sword with the other hand to slash the tentacles that continued to extend.Before leaving, Xin Zou called the cub and told him, "Follow carefully."

The cub nodded hastily, clutching Zhao Ying's jeans tightly with both hooves, and looked at his master nervously.

"Also, watch him for me."

After Xin Hao finished speaking, he walked in front and chopped off the tentacles vigorously, and Zhao Ying, who was following behind him, shrank his body as much as possible behind Xin Hao with a look of disgust, to avoid his body from being stained with those foul-smelling things.It's a pity that as Xin Zou's movements became bigger and bigger, not only was it useless to hide like this, but he also got a lot of mucus on his hands.

"Can't you move a little bit?" Zhao Ying said displeasedly.

Xin Zou said without looking back, "You asked for this."

His words made Zhao Ying speechless, which was indeed what he asked for.But at the beginning, his purpose was just to cause some trouble for Xin Xiao, but now he found it on himself.Zhao Ying was really annoyed by the frustration of stealing chickens and losing money.

Whenever they fled to another area, the tentacles and bugs hidden under the leaves would come out in full force, as if they would not stop until they were killed.Gradually, two walls made of tentacles and bugs completely blocked their way in front of them.

Xin Zou turned around and looked at Zhao Ying with a half-smile. "It's all right now?"
