Shi Liang was awakened from his dream. He sat up and pressed his temples with his hands. He looked around and saw that it was still a dark utility room, but now there was a slim girl in the room. The faint light that filtered through the crack in the door shone on Jiang Lan's arm, which had returned at an unknown time, emitting a very faint purple light.
"What time is it now?" Shi Liang calmed down.
"Mao Shi, you slept for an hour." Lan's voice was still soft.
"Why don't you wake me up?"
"You need rest."
"The kidnapped children are in danger," Jiang, who had turned back into a ball at some point, made a metallic sound. "Judging from the traces of the battle at the scene, the companion key of the man has been seriously injured. I remember that there is someone in the clan. There is a secret method that can insert the damaged key core into the heart of the key, and mix it with the first-level fire crystal energy to incinerate the parasitized key. In this way, the life energy in the body will be absorbed by the key core, and the key core can be restored. He This is what should be the purpose of arresting children.”
When Shi Liang heard this, he immediately said nervously: "Then what should we do?"
"Find him!" The soft reply was firm.
"This secret method requires an extremely yin place where rivers meet to suppress the power of the first-level fire crystal when it is burned. That person must have taken a fancy to this point before choosing this village. We'd better find an opportunity to ask the villagers if there are any nearby There are no caves or crypts." Jiang rummaged through his memories and found the key to the secret technique.
The three continued to discuss for a long time.
"Well, I'll leave now!" After finalizing the plan, Shi Liang stood up and quietly walked out of the room. At this time, Yang Hao, who was lying outside, was still sleeping soundly. He glanced at his brother who was still snoring. Shi Liang looked apologetic but had already made up his mind. He tiptoed and dug out a suit of Begonia clothes from the wooden box beside Yang Hao. Then he walked back to the inner room again.
"Can it be used?" Shi Liangxiao asked Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan nodded, took the clothes and closed the door. After a while, a large Jiang Lan with a figure similar to Yang Hao and wearing a Begonia suit walked out of the room. At this time, Jiang Lan had already tied up her hair, and half of her mask also changed its shape, transforming into a silver headband. Lived the hair. The two of them put on Shi Liang's gauze masks and went out one after the other.
The two walked out of the dormitory and searched for traces. However, the old man in the village had no impression of the cave and the search was at a deadlock. Just when the situation is desperate, a conversation between two idiots in the back alley attracts Xiaolan's attention.
"The little cat is eating, the sky is falling, the cat is hiding in the ground and disappearing." Ergou hid in the corner and muttered in a low voice.
Erhua patted Ergou and said, "No, the tabby cat came out of the grass hole by the south pond with a big fish in its mouth."
"Are you sure it's Nanshuitang?" Shi Liang asked Erhua anxiously.
"It's not Nanshuitang, it's a big locust tree!" Ergou corrected.
"It's Nanshuitang!" Erhua insisted.
"It's a big locust tree!"
"It's the South Pond!"
"It's a big locust tree!"
The two of them argued more and more fiercely, and within a few words, the two idiots in the room were already fighting over this matter.
Shi and Liang shook their heads helplessly outside the iron net.
Shi Liang thought for a moment and then suggested: "I remember hearing from the old people in the village that there used to be an old locust tree one mile away from the north road of the village. It was haunted and cut down three years ago. How about we go and have a look?"
Jiang Lan nodded.
Following Er Shahan's clues, Shi Liang and Jiang Lan hurried outside Sishuitun Village. Just two steps after crossing Beihe, Jiang's metallic sound sounded on Xiaolan's face: "It's here, I can feel the key energy emanating."
After the words fell, Xiaolan stretched out her hand and stopped Shi Liang's footsteps.
"You stay, you can't go forward, you can't beat the people in front of you. I can't protect you." Xiaolan's voice was still soft but very decisive.
Seeing the firm attitude of "Yang Hao" blocking him in front of him, Shi Liang knew that he could not participate in the danger ahead, so he had no choice but to nod. Before turning around, Shi Liang took off the shield ring given by his second uncle and said softly: "Take this, slap it at the critical moment, and there will be a shield. I will go back to the dormitory and wait for you, protect yourself!"
Jiang Lan took the ring and stood in the middle of the road watching Shi Liang leave. Then he ducked into the nearby woods, and then his body dwarfed. Haitang's coat slipped off, and he returned to his original graceful appearance. After putting away the clothes, Xiaolan quickly ran towards Jiang Insen.
I saw her flying all the way to a river bank, then leaping into the water. Metal ripples appeared on the surface of the water, and Jiang Lan seemed to turn into a swimming fish that went straight to the bottom of the river, slid past the reef aquatic plants, turned over, turned around, and swam into a secret passage in the water network. After swimming upstream for two or three feet, Jiang Lan's body came up and emerged from the water. Jiang Lan was already in a huge air cavity.
In the center of the hole, a man in black raised his hand up, holding a ball of burnt black coals, chanting a strange mantra in his mouth, and sporadic flames dripped down the hot oil falling on the man's arm. The man seemed completely unconscious. The ceremony was about to end, and when he saw the familiar aura of the same race on the visitor, the man did not stop moving. In the blink of an eye, his arm trembled, charred black scattered, and a purple glow key core was held in his hand. At that time, Jiang Lan flew forward, turned over and struck down with an axe, metal gathered at the heel, and a sharp blade instantly emerged. "Hey!" The metal leg ax tore up a firework, and the ax blade hit the man in black's arm hard, carving a deep groove. The sudden attack almost cut the man's thick and strained arm into pieces.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me?" The man in black asked angrily, his arms swaying like silk and connecting quickly to reply at a speed visible to the naked eye. At this moment, he was secretly afraid. If the key core had not successfully transformed in the last moment, he would have been kicked to death by the woman of the same race in front of him.
"You killed my child!" The bloody sacrifice was over, and Xiaolan, who was a step late, could not accept the sad news that the baby boy had been killed and died. The anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed and turned into a hysterical cry. Jiang seemed to sense Xiao Lan's thoughts, purple light flashed brightly, and the key energy with Xiao Lan as the center instantly dissipated, and the next second the man in black was enveloped in the key mist.
Seeing the person coming, he released his killing move. The man in black, who was shrouded in the realm of keys, did not dare to hesitate for a moment and immediately chanted a spell to activate the secret technique. The key core that had been hidden in the man's arm shook uncontrollably, and then a flash of purple light instantly covered the man in black. Then the man's whole body glowed with metallic luster, and instantly transformed into an olive-shaped black gold cone. The lower part of the vertebral body was instantly pressurized and then the ground shook and he was ejected.
"Boom!" A silver-black cone bullet full of pits stumbled out of the sticky key mist. The conical projectile did not dare to stop for a moment just after it was out of danger, and rushed out along the waterway. The mist followed closely behind, leaping into the water, shrinking its body like a jellyfish, and came out of the water to pursue it.
