Outlying Islands and Different Swordsmen

Chapter 9 Duanmu · Heart Knot

"Duan... Duanmu!" Yi Yao called out Duanmu's name, and cast a look at him for help.

It is definitely him, this glazed robe, this person's figure, has appeared in dreams so many times, Yiyao is very familiar with it.

Duanmu Hongyan seemed to be sensed by Yiyao's call, he suddenly jumped up from the city wall, stretched out a palm towards the churning phoenix, and seemed to send an invisible palm force towards this strange beast.

Duanmu's whole body exuded a faint green light. With the force of his palm, the entire giant beast, including the four people on its back, were bathed in this hazy green light.

For a moment, the strange beast calmed down, stopped roaring and writhing, and flapped its wings rhythmically.The wound on his back that was still gushing red-orange blood just now no longer gushed out blood.

Mo Xiangzhi and Ma Pei, who were still fighting on Phoenix's back, also stopped when they saw this scene, and the four of them looked at each other in amazement.

"Miss," Lingduo stretched out her body to feel the green light around her, and whispered to Yi Yao, "You called him Duanmu just now, could it be the Duanmu who appeared in your dream?"

"It's him." Yi Yao said.She looked at Duanmu Hongyan from a distance, only then did she realize that Duanmu's body was somewhat transparent, and through the body emitting green light, she could still see the night sky behind him.I don't know if it is human or non-human, more like a soul?
"It's really, really weird!" Ling Duo exclaimed.

Yi Yao still doesn't know how to speak.Duanmu spoke first, and it was still the ethereal voice in his dream.

"Miss Yiyao." Duanmu said, "We are lucky to have this blood phoenix, so we can meet here. Unfortunately, the time has come, and I have to disappear again."

"Dissipate? I...I have a lot of questions to ask you." Yi Yao said, "Can I... still see you?"

"I'm going to disappear for a while." Duanmu said, "I have to find out about an extremely important matter. I'll come back to you after I investigate clearly. Before that, try to save your life. Linhai City, when I meet next time Before you, don't come back for now!"

"But……"

Before Yi Yao finished speaking, Duanmu Hongyan's figure had disappeared into the night sky.

The green light covering the four of them and Phoenix's whole body also disappeared immediately.The four of them were silent for a while before slowing down.Yiyao felt warmth all over her body again, and once again connected with the heart of the blood phoenix.

Mo Xiangzhi pointed to Dongfang and said: "Miss Yang, you can see that the sky in Dongfang has already turned white. Now that things have happened, we still have to go to Quanshan City as soon as possible. We will discuss many matters later."

Ma Pei half-kneeled to apologize to Yi Yao, and said: "Miss Yang, it was because of me that the incident happened just now. I wanted to help the lady, but instead added to the trouble, now the lady is accompanied by this phoenix, in Quanshan City It will be thorough. I will bid farewell to the lady for the time being. After what happened just now, the city wall of Linhai was damaged in many places, and many brothers were killed and injured. I need to stay and take care of it properly. After I finish all matters, I will go to Quanshan City and then personally Go and apologize to Miss!"

Mo Xiangzhi sneered: "Phoenix is ​​with you... You were killing it just now."

Yi Yao helped Ma Pei up, and the two told each other a few more words.Immediately, Yiyao asked Fenghuang to put Ma Pei on the head of Linhai City.

The remaining three continued to fly towards Quanshan City.

"Hurry up." Mo Xiangzhi said to Yi Yao on the way, "Hurry up before dawn, otherwise the people in the city will panic when they see this strange beast. By the way, when we get down to Daoquanshan City, let's fly higher and don't let the city wall fly higher." The sergeant guarding the city saw that the same situation in Linhai City reappeared."

Yi Yao nodded and conveyed the meaning to Blood Phoenix.

"Mr. Mo," Ling Duo asked, "how exactly can Miss control this phoenix? How do you know Miss can do this?"

"It's my fault. I should explain it to you in advance." Mo Xiangzhi said, "Everyone in Jianghu knows that my Mo family is in the business of sachets, but they don't know that we are a family that has been taming animals for hundreds of years. My family is born bright Eyes, have this natural advantage, so hundreds of years ago, they began to study and capture beasts from strange mountains and forests in various places."

"Where did the strange beast come from?" Lingduo asked, "How is it different from ordinary beasts?"

"Our people have been researching for hundreds of years, but we still can't know the origin of the strange beasts. We only know that they live in strange and strange places. Compared with ordinary beasts, the strange beasts are not only huge and fast, but the biggest difference is that, They are extremely spiritual, can be attracted by the special fragrance of flowers, and can be connected with people's mind."

"That is to say, they can understand human nature?" Ling Duo asked.

"Exactly. There are a very small number of people in the world who are born to communicate with the beast." Mo Xiangzhi said, "Like me, the beast that connects with me is a big black feather eagle. But the camel alone, For example, sometimes when I go in and out of the mansion late at night, in order not to disturb the people in the mansion, I use it to take me. It is a pity that I died in an accident last year, so I am inconvenient to say more."

"My condolences, sir." Ling Duo said, "Then this phoenix... how do you know that my young lady can connect with this phoenix?"

"This three-eyed blood phoenix is ​​an extremely rare and precious species among alien beasts. I used to only see it in family research albums. This year, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, that is, a few days ago, when I climbed Lingquan Mountain, I saw it It flew here from nowhere, and then lived in Miyun Forest and Lingquan Mountain for many days, extremely ferocious." Mo Xiangzhi looked at Yiyao and said, "And our Ye Ming eyes can not only see the night road clearly, but also know the difference between strange beasts and beasts." Who can be the link. This evening, I ran into you at the gate of Quanshan City. The moment I saw your lady's eyes, I felt that she and this Lingquan mountain blood phoenix are connected. Miss Yang's eyes exude It has the same luster as the blood phoenix, but ordinary people cannot see it with naked eyes."

Ling Duo said thoughtfully: "So that's the case! I just said, you are just a brother of the Mo family."

Mo Xiangzhi smiled and said: "Everyone has their own advantages. Just like Ms. Yang, she not only has the talent to connect with this precious beast, but what is even more unbelievable is that she was also with this green light just now." If there is no such person, we will really suffer from a reckless man like Mapei! Tell me, is that person you call 'Duanmu' a human being or an immortal?"

"Miss and I don't know either. Miss has suffered too much this time." Ling Duo said, "Perhaps many things will become clear in the future."

Finally know the reason of this strange beast.Yiyao listened to the conversation between the two, but did not make a sound. Now she only wants to reach Quanshan City as soon as possible and rescue her father.This day and night passed so long, and I don't know what kind of danger there is in Quanshan City.

Quanshan City is so abnormally closed, and the rumors of the "Sword Demon" that everyone is afraid of, presumably they will have to experience another thing when they arrive in the city.

The blood phoenix flew very quickly above the high school, but after a while it reached above Quanshan City.Looking down from a high altitude, Quanshan City is almost three times the size of Linhai City. No wonder this city is the capital of the eight cities in the southeast of the dynasty, and it is also the seat of the magistrate.

Yiyao was still thinking about the lotus pond in Liu Zhifu's home, who would have expected that the phoenix would suddenly descend from high altitude and head straight for the Zhifu's mansion...

"Make it stop!" Mo Xiangzhi shouted.

But at this time, Phoenix seemed to be no longer under Yiyao's control, and he rotated his body rapidly and spirally while descending.

Finally, when he was a few feet away from the lotus pond in Liu's mansion, he threw off the three people on his back.

The three of them fell heavily into the water of the lotus pond.And this strange beast phoenix, as if being summoned by someone, flew away far away without looking back.
