Chapter 232

Yale Liga hesitated for a few seconds, stood up and walked towards the burning black rainbow.She knew that it was not a safe direction, but she had to find out the whereabouts of Mrs. Withered Leaf, Ji Cangyu and Wutou Weng.

"Where are you going?" the pregnant woman took her hand and asked.

Yale Liga noticed that her palms were hot, and her grip was steady and heavy, not at all like an ordinary woman who had just given birth.

She told the woman her destination bluntly: "I want to go back there and have a look."

"That's where the devil is. You shouldn't go back."

The woman persuaded, her tone was friendly and sincere.Yale Liga guessed that this was because he helped her give birth to the strange baby, and perhaps the woman regarded herself as an ally.But she didn't have a similar experience, she just felt upset and wanted to find out the life and death of other people in the prison as soon as possible.

"I must go," she said to the woman. "I will find out what happened to your child."

She was not pessimistic when she said this, on the contrary, she felt that the possibility of the baby surviving was very high. After all, he was held in Ji Zangyu's arms, and the iron skull rainbow burning in front of her eyes was obviously related to Ji Zangyu.Unless the boy's plan was to die with the Aconitum, he wouldn't have burned himself with it.

Despite the theory, Allerica wanted to confirm the facts with her own eyes.She firmly expressed her intention and suggested that the woman take the three monks away.But now the woman didn't do it anymore, she wiped off the sweat and stains on her face and said, "I'll go take a look with you."

Allerica thought it was unnecessary.She can take care of herself, but that doesn't mean she can take care of a weak mother who just gave birth.She promised the woman that she would try to find the baby for her, but the woman poohed disapprovingly.

"I don't need that little monster," she said. "He's the devil's son. Do you hear that laugh? It makes me tremble. He's not my child. He's the devil's seed on me." Poison, I don't want to see him for a second time. I came with you to find the horned one. I have to find out if what he said about my husband is true or not. Now those freaks don't care about us, say Maybe he will have his leg broken."

Her voice was smooth, clear, and even a little confident in her rudeness, which almost made Yareriga think that there was a new person in front of her.Not so long ago, the woman was dying, but now she was full of energy, and she stood up without Yale Liga's help.She grabbed a handful of grass blades on the ground and roughly wiped the stains on her lower body like a normal person.

Yale Liga guessed that it was caused by the liquid in the jade bottle, but the woman herself firmly believed that it was because the devil's seed had left her body, and she immediately regained her former health and vitality.Yale Liga didn't intend to argue with her, but simply explained their situation to the three monks, suggested that they hide temporarily, and then walked towards the cracked peak with the woman's support.

Emerald light filled the sky, and scattered bright spots flickered in the clouds, like stars flying freely.Flame wind and fire clouds covered the entire mountainous area, as if the legendary day of burning stars had descended.

The black rainbow is looming on the tumbling emerald clouds.The window mullions and grilles on its surface were illuminated by the fire, gleaming coldly like scales.When the scorching wind blew Yallerika's vision blurred, she felt that what crossed between the two peaks was not a dead object made of iron, but some kind of huge and narrow strange insect, poisonous python, or flying dragon.

It took them a long time to get close.The menacing atmosphere in the air did not ease at all, and the Foehn became more dangerous and violent.Yale Liga smelled a burnt corpse-like smell, so strong that she couldn't breathe.She was sweating and on the verge of collapse, as if she had just been fished out of a well.

The woman's condition was about as bad as hers. "We can't go any further," she said to Allerica out of breath. "This place is cursed, and those devils will be punished by heaven. Look at those bright spots in the sky, they must be angels sent to destroy them. I said let's not go there, good girl, so as not to be involved with those devils. Angels are just, but even the best people have negligence, and we must not be with the devil. "

Allerica said nothing.She probably inferred the other party's beliefs from the woman's speech. Fortunately, the other party at least didn't say anything to her corner (maybe her husband's work opened her horizons), and that was enough for the two survivors who met by chance up.

She continued to move forward until her skin ached slightly from burns, and she had to hide behind a concave rock to rest for a while.At this time, they were close to the split peak where the black rainbow hung, about a thousand meters below.Yale Liga finally distinguished that those emerald clouds tumbling high above were not water mist, but white ash wrapped in countless light spots.

Behind the heavy gray clouds is the Iron Skull Rainbow wrapped in a layer of thin flames.Its outline was distorted by the heat, but it still ran across the center of the rift.The dead tree roots above had turned into sporadic white ash, and the iron thorns were slowly deformed and bent in the fire, dripping down towards the abyss below.

Yale Liga found a shadow as small as a bean sitting on the top of Hongqiao, looking down at the scattered iron rain below.That bit of hazy red made her feel the weight in her chest suddenly and lightly.She jumped out of the concave rock and waved in that direction with all her strength.

The distance between them was too far, and the heavy fly ash seriously obstructed the vision.The shadow didn't give her any response for several minutes, maybe it didn't notice her, or maybe it deliberately ignored her.But Yale Liga still insisted on waving in the scorching wind, and she had an inexplicable confidence in her heart, telling her that there would always be a result.

The shadow on the bridge stood up, and then jumped down beside the bridge, falling lightly like a feather.In the end, Ji Zangyu stepped on the hazy red smoke and landed in front of her with an unhappy face.In his right hand he still held the baby on the reverse heel.

"What?" he asked.

Allerica looked at him.There was no blood or gray spots on Ji Zangyu's body, and even the sleeves cut by the guards miraculously recovered.Apart from his empty left arm, he appeared to be virtually unharmed.She didn't know how it was done yet, but that didn't stop her from feeling a burst of joy.

"Your hair is messed up again," she said, wagging her tail slightly.

Ji Zangyu handed the baby to her, then stretched out his hand to scratch his own head.A lock of hair on the top of his head rose defiantly.Yale Liga also pressed it twice for him, but the result was just the opposite.

She had no choice but to give up temporarily and said to Ji Zangyu, "You need a hair fixer."

Ji Zangyu stared at her a little confused.It seems that he has never used such items before, Yale Liga can't help but feel a little eager to try, but it's a pity that now is not a good time to discuss hairstyles.She looked down at the weird baby, and found that he was still awake at the moment, observing the surroundings with black pupils without whites of the eyes, but he did not make a horrified smile again.

"Where's the Aconitum?" Yareriga asked.

"Run away." Ji Zangyu said, "Turn back and look for him."

Yale Liga never felt that Aconitum was a person willing to die easily, but Ji Zangyu's answer was also beyond her expectations.The young man's tone showed that he was not that interested in the life and death of the Aconitum, so she immediately asked, "Where is Mrs. Withered Leaf? And those jailers? Are they still inside?"

Ji Zangyu was silent for a while, then shook his head.He stomped his feet, and a bright red cloud emerged from the soles of his feet.Before Yale Liga could react, she and the woman had already been carried into the air by the invisible cloud.

Foehn and ashes dissipated as the red cloud approached, they went straight up towards the burning black rainbow, and finally landed on the cracked peak on the left.Under a certain standing rock sheltered from the wind, Yale Liga saw dozens of large and small shadows lying there.They were covered in bruises and ragged clothes, and they were the prisoners locked in the lower layer of the Iron Skull Rainbow. On the other side of the standing rock, there were jailers who were very familiar with Yale Liga.

They were tied together by the white rope, hanging upside down above the abyss, dangling like bunches of slender grapes.Yale Liga lay on the red cloud and counted carefully, and found that everyone except Sati was here.These cell accessories are now Ji Zangyu's captives, most of them are roaring furiously, while a few are yelling coldly, trying to get everyone to cooperate and stop the nauseating shaking.

All this commotion stopped at the approach of the red cloud.When Ji Zangyu sat on the top of the standing rock with a blank face, all the guards calmed down and turned their heads upwards trying to see how the owner of the rope would treat them.

"Hi, beauty." One of the jailers greeted Yale Liga with a dry smile, "You look good now."

Yale Liga lay prone on the rock mass, leaning out her upper body to look at them.She smiled at the half-barghest who had tried to eat her toes, hooked her tail on the ropes that hung them, and shoved them slowly and viciously.

The chain of jailers at the bottom of the rope began to swing and spin violently, and some unlucky bastards who were not used to the heights screamed, while the half-barghest screamed: "We have no hatred! I never touched you! I stopped Neb When that idiot drags you out!"

What he said was indeed the truth, but those actions had nothing to do with the kindness towards Yale Liga, and they could not restore her heart at all.She turned to look at Ji Zangyu.

"We should throw them down," she said. "That's what they do to captives. Now they should try."

It seemed to her that this was the most just treatment, not only for her, but also for the prisoners on the other side of the rock mass.But to her surprise, Ji Zangyu didn't respond, but frowned hesitantly.His expression made Allerica's heart sink.

"You pity them?" she asked.

Ji Zangyu shook his head directly.

"Then you should kill them," she persuaded. "They deserve it. If you don't, they'll go out and kill other people, who are weaker than them, who haven't done anything."

Ji Zangyu obviously listened to her words, but he still frowned, as if fighting some kind of thought.

"Can't kill." He said a little embarrassed.Before Yale Liga opened her mouth to ask, he pointed to the white rope and said, "This thing will not be killed."

Allerica vaguely understood what he wanted to express.Whatever the reason, it looked like Ji Zangyu couldn't take on the role of executioner, but that didn't matter.She asked Ji Zangyu to bring the guards up so that she could do it herself—in fact, she was considering whether she needed to do it herself, and the prisoners sitting next to her also had the right to enjoy revenge.

Ji Zangyu lowered his head and pondered.Allerica could see that he was shaking, and she wanted to continue persuading, but the baby in her arms suddenly started to dance.

"Eee, ee, ee!" the baby whispered. "Up! Up!"

His voice interrupted Allerica's plans.She looked up at Heihong, and found that the grayed tree roots were wriggling and falling off.

As for the tree roots entwined outside the bridge, Yaleriga hadn't had the chance to think deeply about their origins before.She never remembered that the peak owners had such a natural aesthetic, but now that she was thinking about it carefully, she vaguely felt that it might have something to do with Mrs. Withered Leaf.

Ji Zangyu also noticed the situation on the black rainbow.He stepped forward without thinking, and wanted to fly up to check alone, but Yale Liga caught him in time.

"Take me," she said.

She felt that the plan to clean up the cell accessories could be postponed for the time being.After all, they already had the chance to win, and she didn't want any surprises for Ji Zangyu at this moment.So she carried the baby to the Red Cloud, and flew over with the boy.

They hovered at the level of the bridge peak, watching the huge vaulted cage melt in the flames.The windows used to ventilate and sustain certain spells had been burned and deformed, at first like weeping faces, and soon collapsed completely out of shape.

In such a deadly high temperature, those dead tree roots of unknown origin showed obvious extraordinary properties.They were almost burnt to a pile of ashes, but they could still wriggle and shrink tenaciously.

Ji Zangyu rode the red clouds and followed them in the direction of their pulsation.They came all the way to the junction between the black rainbow and the cracked peak on the right, and then followed the tree roots all the way down, heading straight into the shadow deep in the cracked valley.

The baby moved around in Yareriga's arms, and the disgusting laugh began again.Amidst the noise he made, Allerica heard another regular breath.It is slight but rapid, a bit like the panting of a living creature, and a bit like the rustling of trees being blown by the wind.

The voice came from a certain cave on the cliff.The edge of the cave wall is crowded with scorched tree roots, and the dense emerald light like fireflies enters and leaves the gaps in the roots.Allerica recognized them as the same thing that burned the Iron Skull Rainbow, but was not sure why they followed the roots here.

She got an answer quickly.After following Ji Zangyu to burn all the roots and drilled into the cave, they saw a mass of bloated and pale translucent flesh in the depths of the cave.It had the texture of a jellyfish, but it was covered with long, thin stalks that spasmed painfully.Its transparent abdominal cavity is filled with fluid, and a small child's skull is floating in the fluid.

Ji Zangyu's footsteps paused, as if she didn't expect to meet such a vivid creature.But when Yale Liga saw this scene, she suddenly understood everything.

"This is the Duo Lingzu." She said to Ji Zangyu, "their bodies."

Pale tentacles burrowed into nearby, still-dead roots.They watched the plants hidden deep in the crevices of the rocks twist and twist, and finally weaved a small silhouette of a woman.

She was only half the length of Yale Liga's arm, lying quietly on top of the meat, embracing the belly of the meat with both hands.Immediately afterwards, another tentacle penetrated into the crack in the ground, and fished out a dead head that hadn't completely decomposed.The tree root was inserted into the inside of the human head through the ear canal, and the human head suddenly opened its eyes.

"You found it," it said hoarsely out of tune.It was a voice Yareriga had never heard before, but it did not prevent her from recognizing its owner.

"Madame Withered Leaf." She whispered.

The little female body lying on the piece of meat moved a bit, but still did not let go of her embrace.The human head shook and laughed dryly.

"Delevingne shouldn't have caught you," said the head.

Ji Zangyu ignored the head's words.He strode forward and walked to the side of the piece of meat.When he put his hand into the belly of the meat, the root female body lying on the meat began to beat and pull him crazily.But the force was too slight, allowing Ji Zangyu to easily pull out the skull from the meat.

The human head began to sob, and the baby laughed loudly.

"Elly! Elly!" said the baby. "Come back!"

The head shouted, "Give it back to me!"

Ji Zangyu held up the skull indifferently amidst the two noises.He turned it silently, looked at it for a while, and finally nodded affirmatively.

"Elites." He said, "Come with me. Go to Baihe Youzhou."
