The first-level Zhaohua Thousand-level Hall

Chapter 187

Xu Qingluo felt uncomfortable for a moment.

She touched her neck with her hand: "It doesn't hurt anymore, now the scar just looks scary."

She would rather face his temptations than face Gong Ziyan's sudden concern.

She could not have misread the momentary remorse in Gong Ziyan's eyes.

To be honest, if Gong Ziyan had really killed Lang Cheng at that time, Xu Qingluo would have wished to kill him to avenge Lang Cheng.

But in the end he blocked the blow, Xu Qingluo didn't feel so angry and hated because of his injury.

On the battlefield, either you die or I die. She chose to protect Lang Sheng at that moment, and she was ready to die.

It is extremely lucky to be able to recover this life.

The branch in front of Gongzi Yan had sparks, and a little fire light reflected on his face, his expression was a little strange, he stared deeply at the burning branch: "I have thought about killing you completely!" Yes, after all, it was I who said that meeting, and when we meet in the future, we will be enemies rather than friends."

After thinking about it, these two words just proved the hesitation and hesitation in his heart.

If a person like him really wants to kill someone, he doesn't need to think about it, he will do it directly.

Xu Qingluo stared at the unusually pale cheek under the firelight, and noticed that Gong Ziyan's figure seemed to be getting thinner.

"I also promised you that I will find a way to heal you in the future. Before you put your ideas into practice, I don't mind fulfilling my promise first."

Xu Qingluo raised the corners of her lips slightly. In the dark cave, the woman's smile seemed to be overflowing with infinite brilliance, and the haze in people's hearts dissipated a lot unconsciously.

Gong Ziyan lowered his eyes, a little afraid to look any further: "It's getting late, you go to bed first, I'll go watch the night."

He still didn't answer Xu Qingluo's previous proposal of cooperation, but his performance clearly agreed to Xu Qingluo's proposal.

Watching Gong Ziyan stand up: "Wait."

When Gong Ziyan turned his head in doubt, Xu Qingluo took off the cloak that had been wrapped around him, and handed it to Gong Ziyan: "I don't want the person who protects me to relapse on the way."

The Gu poison in Gong Ziyan's body penetrated deep into his lungs, and he couldn't stand the slightest cold.

"No, I have the internal strength to keep out the cold, and I also have wolf fur."

Xu Qingluo's answer was to forcefully hand the cloak to Young Master Yan, then turned his head and bent down to pick up the wolf skin that Young Master Yan had processed, and then walked back to the place where he was sitting just now, covering the wolf skin that was still smelling of blood. The wolf fur spread out on the ground, sat on it, and looked at Young Master Yan with a smile: "Believe me, if you go out wearing wolf skins, you may attract wolves as a result, and they are the most vengeful animals."

Xu Qingluo seems indifferent, but in fact, if she really cares about someone, then she is the most gentle woman.

Gong Ziyan took a deep look at her, this time he did not refuse the cloak that Xu Qingluo stuffed him again, took it and walked out of the cave.

His footsteps were inexplicably much lighter.

This time, Gong Ziyan will enter the Ice Absolute Territory, and it seems that he is here to find his last chance, but only he knows that when he comes here, he knows that Xu Qingluo will definitely find this place.

He wanted to ask her about her injuries, wanted to see her before she died, and even thought that if it was irreparable, if he grabbed her and died together, then even if he didn't follow his idea, the world would be destroyed. He is willing to disturb the mess.

Mu Qing told Xu Qingluo and Langsheng that Young Master Yan was going to the Frozen Territory map earlier than they did, but he didn't tell them that Young Master Yan got the map from him when his injury was not fully recovered. .

He came half a month earlier than Xu Qingluo and Lang Sheng, and he had been waiting outside the exit of the Ice Absolute Territory.

The reason is just to wait until Xu Qingluo, and even when Xu Qingluo and Langsheng are in a storm, even if they are pulled together tightly, they still separate.

Here, maybe it is the last journey of his life, no matter whether he let Xu Qingluo go or drag Xu Qingluo to die together in the end.

He didn't even want to see Lang Sheng and Xu Qingluo together.

The two of them must be separated.

But now, having a peaceful conversation with Xu Qingluo and enjoying her vague tenderness, Gong Ziyan felt that the choice he had made was not wrong.

Because he was in a good mood, there was nothing wrong with that.

A person who is threatened by death at any time is sometimes more willful and paranoid than anyone imagined.

He used to think that disrupting the world was an interesting thing, enough to become his goal.

Now I feel that the feeling of being with Xu Qingluo is not inferior to disturbing the world, and even more satisfying.

Gong Ziyan walked out of the cave, looking at the traces of himself and Xu Qingluo that were buried by the wind and snow outside the cave, the smile on his lips became more and more warm, in this severe cold, there was a strange warmth.

-

When Xu Qingluo was with Gong Ziyan, a muscular man was fighting with wolves.

A huge black or gray wolf formed an encirclement circle around the man.

With their ferocious sharp teeth wide open, they moved around the man from far or near.

Low-pitched growls and threatening sounds came from the mouths of wolves.

They stared at the man with horrific eyes that were choking and devouring, but for a long time they didn't dare to really go forward, just because of the wolf corpses with their necks cut off around the man's body.

The scarlet blood stained the snow around the man, looking horrifying.

Lang Cheng frowned and looked at the wolves around him who seemed to be fighting fiercely but were already retreating. The red-stained long sword in his hand was steady and never trembled, even though there were many places on his body. Compared with the wolves, the wounds are more powerful.

It's not a bluff, but a real aura, because in just a short period of time, Lang Sheng exchanged every wound on his body for the lives of wolves.

Wolves are loyal and cunning creatures, they will retaliate, and they will not give up if they see their prey, but the premise of all that must be the prey or the prey.

Lang Sheng exchanged half of the lives of the wolves with his wounds all over his body. Humans cherish their lives, and even more so with beasts.

The faint sound of the wind came from behind, Lang Sheng didn't turn his head, but the long sword in his hand suddenly thrust out from his ribs,

The hot blood sprayed back, and a shrill wolf howl sounded and then stopped abruptly.

The wolf carcass fell to the ground with a thud.

The giant wolves surrounding Langcheng roared ferociously, and the next moment, the first wolf took a step back.

The first one, the second one, then the third one, and the fourth one, they looked at Lang Sheng warily, retreating step by step, their eyes were vigilant, a little bit of fear, and temptation.

As long as Lang Sheng showed the slightest weakness or a slight flaw, those wolves that were retreating would instantly turn into an attack.

Snow mixed with the wind swept in, half of Lang Sheng's body was covered with blood.

However, his figure was steady and his aura was sharp, but he didn't show weakness at all. On the contrary, he had the bloody aura of a bloody battlefield. Standing there, he looked like a Shura.

The last wolf disappeared from sight, and Lang Cheng slowly and steadily lowered his blood-stained long sword, turned around, stepped on the falling snow, and walked towards the chosen direction step by step.

After walking a long distance, Lang Sheng stopped, and with a puff, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. He raised his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and face with his sleeve.

The pouch in the sleeve fell.

Several pills inside tumbled into the snow.

Lang Sheng frowned, bent down to pick up the pills and purse.

This was something he found on the way. He clearly recognized the embroidery pattern on the purse, which belonged to Xu Qingluo, and only Xu Qingluo liked to put some emergency pills in his purse.

Some of these pills Lang Sheng had taken before.

Lang Sheng put the pills into his purse, and suddenly, his hand stopped, the purse was a little damaged, and a strange, very faint breath entered his nostrils.

He couldn't describe the smell, but it was clearly not the smell of the pills or the smell of the medicine on Xu Qingluo's body that was caught in his purse.

Lang Sheng's face froze for a long time. He didn't understand medicine or pharmacology, but he could think.

At first, I was still wondering how the wolves would suddenly find me and attack me, but now it seems that someone has tampered with it.

Some medicines to make wild beasts go crazy or to attract wild beasts are never lacking. Lang Sheng once saw a person who was heavily guarded was attacked and killed by many wild beasts when he went hunting.

Lang Sheng looked ahead, and he detected some faint traces of Xu Qingluo disappearing towards this direction, but would Xu Qingluo really go this way?
When someone used Xu Qingluo's purse to plot against him, what Lang Sheng was most worried about now was Xu Qingluo's safety and whereabouts.

The man clenched the purse in his hand, his eyes were full of sharpness: "Luo'er, wait for me!"

At the entrance of Absolute Territory, he and Xu Qingluo held hands tightly together, but he was suddenly attacked halfway, so he and Xu Qingluo were accidentally separated. Now it seems that the person who attacked him had serious thoughts. It's really not easy.

Lang Sheng already had doubts in his heart, but the premise of all this was to find Xu Qingluo first.

The injury on his body got worse, but he didn't seem to notice it, he bandaged himself casually, turned around, and walked in the opposite direction from the direction he was originally walking.

-

Xu Qingluo and Gong Ziyan stayed in the cave for a whole day, and the snow outside stopped, and the wind gradually stopped. When they came out of the cave, Xu Qingluo felt as if they were reborn as human beings.

She stretched her somewhat stiff waist, and walked to Gong Ziyan's side: "I want to find Ah Cheng. With Ah Cheng together, we will be more confident in finding worms."

Xu Qingluo didn't know what Gong Ziyan was doing secretly. In her mind, since the two of them cooperated, it was all to solve the insect poison.

Necessary cooperation is still acceptable.

After all, only with better cooperation can we find the insects more smoothly and detoxify Lang Sheng and Gong Ziyan. This is a win-win opportunity.

Xu Qingluo felt that since Young Master Yan appeared here, he wanted to live and get rid of the poison, so he didn't lie to him, and directly said that he wanted to find Langcheng first.

Gong Ziyan's fingertips froze, he originally wanted to help Xu Qingluo wipe away the blood on his cheek.

It's a pity that what Xu Qingluo said was really an extremely unpleasant sight.

Young Master Yan sneered in his heart, no matter how peaceful and happy the two people in front were, when he came to his senses, the most important thing Xu Qingluo wanted to find was Lang Sheng.

He sneered in his heart, but on the face he looked completely calm and innocent: "Although Langcheng's temperament is a little bit disliked, his strength is indeed more believable, and I will not live with my life." , it would be great if we could find him, but in this vast world, how can we find him."

Xu Qingluo didn't notice the strangeness of Gong Ziyan, but after hearing his answer, he smiled reassuringly: "As long as you are willing to reconcile with Ah Cheng temporarily, it will be better than anything else. I have a kind of tracking incense on him, you know Yes, I'm used to smelling medicinal herbs, and my nose is more sensitive than normal, as long as we leave some more clues, and rely on my sense of tracking incense, there will always be a chance to meet."

Xu Qingluo said with such certainty.

-

Xu Qingluo and Young Master Yan walked together for three full days, but let alone the chasing fragrance on Lang Sheng's body or Lang Sheng looking for him with the clues left behind, there was no trace of anyone.

Except for Xu Qingluo and Gong Ziyan, the most numerous beasts and poisonous insects in this Ice Absolute Territory.

I encountered snow wolves on the first day, and when the second day went deeper, there were poisonous scorpions, birds and beasts, giant bears, tigers and leopards, and even poisonous snakes that should have hibernated.

This Ice Absolute Territory is really in danger everywhere, if Xu Qingluo and Gong Ziyan are not good at medicine and martial arts, I am afraid that it will really be compromised here.

Xu Qingluo should be thankful that she was able to walk for so long because she met Gong Ziyan. She really thought so at the beginning, but after three days passed, she still didn't meet Lang Sheng, and she didn't even find the slightest clue. Luo had to think more.

When Young Master Yan came out of the newly found cave for a temporary rest to find food, Xu Qingluo stood up and walked towards the direction the two of them walked by just now.

After a while, she finally found her goal.

There, the two intersecting branches are still there, but the branch that originally pointed to the north is pointing to the east, and the deviation is a bit too big.

Xu Qingluo lowered his eyes slowly. At that moment, there was anger, but after the anger, he laughed at himself.

After all, she herself took it for granted.

She felt that there was some friendship between Gong Ziyan and Lang Sheng, and she felt that it was all for the sake of gnats, to understand the medicine and save lives, so they could cooperate.

As everyone knows, Gong Ziyan's mind has never been different from others.

Xu Qingluo turned to look at the cave where he came.

Think of the young master's smile under the firelight.

For a moment, she hesitated.

But it was only for a moment, Xu Qingluo turned his head back.

Go south.

She said that she is selfish, and in Xu Qingluo's heart, there has always been closeness and distance.

Gong Ziyan intentionally let her and Lang Sheng miss each other, which was against Xu Qingluo's taboo.

After all, Xu Qingluo could secretly leave clues by himself, but because he believed in Gong Ziyan, he told him in advance that there were clues in tracking Xiang.

That was Xu Qingluo showing his sincerity to Gong Ziyan, and Gong Ziyan obviously failed Xu Qingluo's sincerity and trust.

-

"Luo'er, look what I got, today we are lucky—"

In the cave, Gong Ziyan looked at the fire that had been extinguished for a long time and the cave that was empty and deserted without a single figure. At that moment, he realized something.

The roe deer in the man's hand dropped to the ground, turned around and ran out of the cave.

There is a vast snowstorm outside, the surrounding fields are pale, the boundless snow and mountain peaks stretch, and there is no one left.

The faint footprints that remained on the ground were completely covered by snowflakes under a gust of cold wind, completely hiding their tracks.

Gong Ziyan slowly clenched his five fingers.

He knew from the very beginning that he couldn't hide it from Xu Qingluo.

No matter how concealed her hands and feet are, no matter how good he is at acting, Xu Qingluo is not a woman to be deceived after all. She has her own thoughts, judgments, determination, and action.

It's just that it's hard to settle down after all.

He thought that the two-person journey between himself and Xu Qingluo would last until he found the gnat, or at least last a few more days, but he didn't expect that the parting came so unexpectedly.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qingluo was more cruel than he imagined.

The people in the cave have been away for a long time, without leaving a single word, no matter how caring and soft they are to themselves, when he is in the same place as Lang Sheng, Xu Qingluo chooses It will always be Lang Sheng, without exception.

It shouldn't be surprising, after all, Xu Qingluo almost died several times because of Lang Sheng, and even Xu Qingluo resolutely came to the border from the bustling place in the capital because of Lang Sheng.

Gong Ziyan's eyes were full of sarcasm, not the sarcasm Xu Qingluo and Lang Sheng, but the self-deprecating self.

He can see clearly and distinguish clearly from beginning to end, but unfortunately he himself does not want to believe or understand.

He would rather be intoxicated in a dream and have a good time at the end, than accept the cruelty and indifference in reality.

But in the end, he still woke up from the dream.

I didn't want to wake up, so I woke up, facing the loneliness and desolation everywhere.

A long howl suddenly overflowed from the man's lips, filled with sadness, which gradually became sharp and hateful.

Langsheng, Langsheng, why do you always get the precious treasures that I want but can't get, why do you always get more than me for such a dull and ruthless person!

Xu Qingluo turned her head and looked behind her. She seemed to hear something, but when she was about to listen carefully, she didn't hear anything.

There was no one behind him, Xu Qingluo frowned, tightened the leather on his body, wrapped his body more tightly, and quickened his pace.

She turned her head to look for Lang Sheng, not turned her head to die. Now that there is no Young Master Yan by her side, she must be more cautious than before.

Suddenly, a thick and pungent smell of blood was sent to the nose. In this smell of blood, Xu Qingluo also smelled another faint smell.

That was her tracking incense.

The tracking incense was stained on Lang Sheng's body, and Lang Sheng must have passed by here.

Xu Qingluo finally found the place where Lang Sheng might have passed by, and found the trace of the other party, but she didn't have the slightest joy on her face, because of the strong smell of blood here, and because the tracking incense on Lang Sheng's body was actually not in this ice and snow cold wind. It was easy to find, she could smell it right now, most likely it was Lang Sheng, injured and bleeding.

To track something like incense, the deepest thing is blood!
Xu Qingluo took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and turned around the low peak that blocked the front line of sight.

What I saw in front of my eyes was ferocious and bloody, there were wolf corpses all over the place, with broken limbs, and blood stained the surrounding snow all red.

But she heaved a sigh of relief, because all those corpses were the corpses of beasts, and there was no Langcheng.
Xu Qingluo looked around again, but there was no movement around, and slowly approached the corpses step by step.

I hope to find more clues, and hope that Lang Sheng also left some hints for her.

Xu Qingluo saw a few stones arranged more regularly. Her eyes lit up, and she ignored the pungent smell of blood. She walked a few steps quickly, rushed to the side of the wolf corpse, and reached out to touch it. pebbles.

Suddenly there was a gust of wind above the head, and it was blowing towards Xu Qingluo's head and face with tearing force.

Xu Qingluo's hair was blown to the front, drooping her eyelids, covering her vision, and her eyes were dark.

Xu Qingluo was terrified in his heart, he lowered his body and rolled to one side, the roaring sound shook the whole field.

It was the cry of birds, the sound of finding prey.

Xu Qingluo didn't dare to stop, and rolled down behind a mountain wall amidst the misty snowflakes all over the sky, which was the upwind place.

The wind blew in the direction that the bird of prey was chasing, and the medicine powder in Xu Qingluo's palm scattered freely.

In the midst of the chaos, sharp claws approached in an instant, and Xu Qingluo crossed his hands to protect his head and face.

After all, she was eager for Langcheng, knowing that in such a place, how could it be possible for the dead beasts to be quiet without a predator.

It's just that this bird of prey is much smarter than she imagined, so it kept hiding just now, and only appeared suddenly when it saw her getting close and its mind was agitated.

She fell under its claws, and it really wasn't too much of an injustice.

It's just that she doesn't necessarily die, the big deal is that these arms will be crippled.

Thinking of the medicinal powder she spilled, Xu Qingluo's eyes showed no fear, only coldness.

She has never been a weak woman, whether it is a human or a beast, if you want to deal with her, you have to be prepared to drop a big piece of meat first.

With a stabbing sound, the sound of sharp claws tearing clothes, skin and flesh was close at hand.

Xu Qingluo felt a temperature that he had never felt since the day he entered the Ice Absolute Territory.

From the gap between her arms covering her head and face, she saw the man who was smiling slightly at her.

"Ah Cheng."

The ferocious bird's sharp claws slashed across the man's back, and a stream of blood rushed out.

Xu Qingluo finally saw the man at this moment, much faster than she imagined, but at the moment she was not happy at all, she just wanted to cry and kill someone.

"Close your eyes."

A man's faint voice came from next to his ear, Xu Qingluo didn't close his eyes, but instead widened them.

Faint teardrops flickered in his eyes.

Lang Sheng sighed helplessly, Xu Qingluo only felt his body lighten, and his whole body fell flat to one side. At the same time, with his wide eyes, he saw the man's sharp claws still on his back, and his body stiffened. Turning around, with the blood splattered, each hand grabbed the two wings of the vicious bird, and tore them apart.

There was blood all over the sky.

The vicious bird split into two, and Lang Sheng's tall body finally fell down weakly.

"Ah Cheng!"

Xu Qingluo supported the man's bloody body with all his strength.

At a glance, he saw countless wounds on the man's body, overlapping, not well bandaged, all oozing blood.

The teardrops in my eyes finally rolled down.
