In the desert, the traces of the end of the war were quickly covered up by the wind and sand. Five corpses, or rather three corpses, lay tragically on the ground. The yellow sand covered them, making them look particularly desolate.
Ye Hong, who fainted on Murong Jingxue, turned purple, twitched slightly from time to time, and his breath became very weak.
Not long after, Murong Jingxue's eyelashes trembled and she woke up leisurely.
"Hmm~ What's wrong with me?"
Murong Jingxue propped up her body and shook her still-conscious head. She felt the pressure on her back. She wanted to look back to see what was going on, but suddenly she felt empty in front of her. When she lowered her head and looked down, she screamed.
"ah!"
While screaming, Murong Jingxue covered her chest with her hands and quickly pulled away the broken clothes to cover her chest. It turned out that when Ye Hong was treating Murong Jingxue's poison, he tore the clothes on Murong Jingxue's back to pieces, causing the clothes that held up Murong Jingxue's upper body to fall off after he woke up.
He glanced around in a panic and saw no one in sight. He quickly found some clothes from his storage bag and put them on. Only then did Murong Jingxue realize that the toxins in the wound on his back had been cleaned away. Seeing Ye Hong's condition, with dried blood still remaining on the corner of his mouth, he immediately understood what was going on.
"This fool! Why did you give me drugs with your mouth? Then...didn't he look at me just now!" Murong Jingxue was a little angry, with a blush on her face.
'You've seen it all, you've done this to me, now you can't escape anymore! He said he didn't like it, but in his heart he was always concerned about my safety. What a liar! 'Murong Jingxue helped Ye Hong up and thought to herself while using her internal energy to drive away the poison.
As Murong Jingxue used her internal energy to expel the poison from Ye Hong, the purple color on Ye Hong's face gradually faded, but soon Murong Jingxue realized something was wrong.
When she was using her internal power to expel poison, she discovered that Ye Hong's body was abnormal and her vitality was rapidly passing away. This feeling reminded her of the devouring substance in the giant rock eagle.
"What's going on? The loss of life force is so serious!"
Murong Jingxue was covered with mental power, and she quickly checked Ye Hong's physical condition carefully, and immediately discovered the clues as to the cause of Ye Hong's loss of vitality.
Murong Jingxue was right, it was indeed caused by the devouring power. A muscle on Ye Hong's right arm has turned blue and black, and it is stained with very weak devouring power.
"Is this? You were trying to save me by pushing away the snake girl's poison! How could it have the power of devouring it?" Murong Jingxue frowned, and at the same time glanced at the snake girl's corpse over there, with a very solemn look on her face.
Seeing the devouring power constantly devouring Ye Hong's vitality, Murong Jingxue was helpless at this time. After the battle, her internal energy was exhausted, and she was injured and poisoned. Although he had taken the pill to restore his strength, the little internal strength he had just recovered had already been used by Ye Hong to drive away the poison.
At present, most of the internal strength has not been recovered, and he does not dare to remove the devouring power from Ye Hong. If he fails to remove it successfully, he will also be contaminated.
But Ye Hong's vitality has been passing away. If this continues, it won't be long before Ye Hong dies due to exhaustion of vitality. Originally, Ye Hong was just a mortal, with a lifespan of no more than a hundred years. The passage of vitality quickly caused Ye Hong's body to begin to age, and his hair gradually turned white visibly to the naked eye.
"The life force does not flow out very fast. How could this happen?"
When Murong Jingxue saw that Ye Hong was gradually aging due to the loss of vitality, she was immediately in a hurry, tears welled up, and she burst into tears for a while.
"What to do! What to do! Life force! Life force! Yes! Life force, you can use mine! Bright Life and Death Contract! How could I forget this!" Murong Jingxue suddenly thought of a way in her anxiety.
"Bright determination! Life and death contract! Fate is connected and soul is connected! Light is the blessing! Fate and number are unified! Fate bridge!"
As Murong Jingxue continued to form seals and whispered softly in his mouth, the two people's chests bloomed with brilliant light, the mark of the bright life and death contract glowed with dazzling brilliance, and two groups of rays of light rushed out to form a connecting light bridge between the two people.
The light bridge is the life bridge. The moment it connects, the sky and the earth change color, and thunder clouds roll, as if thunder is about to fall. But as the dazzling holy light shrouded the two people, a looming shadow appeared above the two people. The dancing thunderclouds slowly dispersed, and the sky became clear again.
And the phantom only appeared for a moment, and then never appeared again. The dazzling holy light faded, and the light bridge between the two people still existed, faintly appearing.
With the connection of the Life Bridge, Ye Hong's vitality was quickly replenished, and his aging body gradually improved, regaining his previous appearance. Murong Jingxue finally smiled at this moment.
Now that it was effective, Murong Jingxue felt a little relieved. She could recover first and then remove the devouring power from Ye Hong.
The Life Bridge can be used to save lives, but the cost is naturally huge. For every one year of life given to Ye Hong, Murong Jingxue will lose ten years of his own life.
To exchange ten for one, this price is undoubtedly huge and not worth it to ordinary people, but in Murong Jingxue's eyes, it is all worth it. Even if it takes a hundred years to exchange, it is still willing. True life and death, when Murong Jingxue made the bright life and death contract with Ye Hong, she was ready to live and die together.
Falling in love with someone may only be for a moment, but falling in love with someone is amazing. You will do anything for the other person, no matter how high the price is, you are willing to pay it, and you never consider the consequences. Even if it is a dead end, you are willing to walk together for it. Go on, this is why people who fall in love have zero IQ.
Love can make people obsessed, but it can also make people crazy. This is probably the case with Murong Jingxue now. Perhaps only Murong Jingxue herself knows what made Murong Jingxue deeply infatuated with Ye Hong.
Although Murong Jingxue was closing her eyes and regulating her breath at this time, she never relaxed her attention to Ye Hong for a moment. She was always aware of Ye Hong's physical condition and took the time to recover quickly.
The desert is boundless, and the yellow sand rolls across the ground. A figure approached in this direction, and it became increasingly clear that it was a young monk wearing monk's robes.
Murong Jingxue, who was always observing her surroundings, naturally noticed this person, then opened her eyes and frowned. Without knowing the purpose and identity of this person, how could Murong Jingxue dare to let down her guard.
When the monk saw Murong Jingxue opening his eyes, he immediately stopped, made a Buddhist gesture, and said: "Donor woman, don't be nervous! The poor monk's name is Huineng. He just saw a strange phenomenon here, so he came here looking for traces. There is no malice. .”
"Monk?"
Monk Huineng nodded, "That's right! The poor monk in the Buddhist sect has now seen the source of the vision. This trip is not in vain! Amitabha!"
Monk Huineng glanced at Murong Jingxue and then said: "The female benefactor is destined to save all living beings in the world. Their lives should not be connected. This contract does not match! Time is also destiny!"
After hearing this, Murong Jingxue was displeased and replied: "Of all living beings, no one can be saved! Saving one person is saving, and saving all living beings is saving. You don't care who I save! I have my own method!"
"The female benefactor's thoughts cannot make a decision, Huineng just sighs."
Seeing the monk Huineng continue to walk towards her after finishing speaking, Murong Jingxue immediately stopped and said:
"What are you doing! Don't come over! Otherwise I'll be rude to you!"
Monk Huineng stopped in front of him, pointed at Ye Hong beside Murong Jingxue, and politely replied: "The female donor misunderstood! Huineng wants to save this donor."
When Murong Jingxue saw that Monk Huineng was going to rescue Ye Hong, her expression suddenly became solemn.
"No reason, not a relative! How do I know if you are really saving people or if you have malicious intentions? I can save them myself, I don't need you to save them!"
The monk Huineng said kindly again: "Amitabha! Buddhism is compassionate and saves all living beings. The female donor can save it, but why can't the poor monk be saved? The female donor can rest assured, Huineng only saves people and does nothing else."
I have long heard that Buddhism is good, but it is hard to judge whether this monk is truly good or not. After all, this is the Western Region, a place of chaos. Murong Jingxue couldn't make up her mind at the moment, but seeing that if the devouring power on Ye Hong's body was not removed for a moment, there would be more danger, and the little life force she had could not last long.
After careful consideration, Murong Jingxue let Monk Huineng come over and stopped blocking him.
"If you dare to go against him, I will kill you immediately!" After monk Huineng came to him, Murong Jingxue warned him uneasily.
Monk Huineng was not angry. He knelt down and put his hand to check Ye Hong's situation. Then his internal energy began to circulate and he muttered incomprehensible Sanskrit.
Previously, because the monk Huineng's aura was restrained and not exposed at all, he didn't know what his cultivation level was and how his internal energy was operating. At this time, Murong Jingxue also realized that the young monk's true level was actually the emperor's level, the first level of the emperor's level. .
Monk Huineng's realm is lower than his own. Even if his inner strength is perfect, he should be able to detect it. But the strange thing is that he couldn't detect it at all before. I can't help but wonder how he did it.
Seeing that the little monk was really helping Ye Hong detoxify, the scattered devouring power was gradually concentrated on the arm wound. With the little monk's pulling, the devouring power substance concentrated on the arm was successfully peeled off, and at the same time, the toxins It was also cleaned up, and it seemed much easier than when I dealt with it myself.
"The poison of this benefactor has been eliminated. Female benefactor, please be at ease and accept the Life Bridge so that you can enlighten more sentient beings."
After the monk Huineng finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, thinking he was leaving. Unexpectedly, he walked to the snake girl's body, sat down, and recited the scriptures, as if he was saving her.
Then he walked to the corpses of the two fat and thin men from the Desert Snake Gang and recited the scriptures again. After the recitation of the scriptures ended, the corpses flashed with a faint golden light, turned into fly ash, and drifted away in the wind.
Murong Jingxue was very surprised. The three of them were all in disarray and no trace of their souls could be found. Why did the young monk do this? Is it really useful? Or should he comfort himself.
The bridge of life has been broken, and his life force will no longer be transferred to Ye Hong. In this short period of time, Murong Jingxue's own lifespan has been shortened by several hundred years. However, these are irrelevant. It is great to see Ye Hong's vitality restored. happy.
It's a pity that although the devouring power has been removed and there is no need to worry about the life span for the time being, the white hair cannot be recovered and turned into silver hair. I don't know what Ye Hong will think when he wakes up and finds out.
Perhaps because of the serious loss of life force this time and the poisoning, Ye Hong was not able to wake up immediately. Ye Hong's breathing was stable, and all the injuries on his body had been healed by himself. He also checked carefully and found that it would be a matter of time before he woke up. Murong Jingxue was not worried about this.
Seeing that the monk Huineng did not leave, but came towards her again, this time Murong Jingxue was not as wary as last time, her expression became slightly better, and she asked curiously:
"What were you doing just now?"
"As you can see, save them for them." Monk Huineng said very normally.
"They have already lost their souls and disappeared in this world. What's the use of doing this?"
"All living beings are suffering, and all phenomena are essentially non-existent. If you cannot survive this life, you will survive the next life. There is a difference between good and evil. There is no evil in nature. The Buddha's Dharma is transcendent, and even the spirit can do it."
Murong Jingxue frowned and said, "I don't understand what you are saying! Evil is evil and good is good! What can be done for evil people!"
Monk Huineng smiled and said nothing, neither refuting Murong Jingxue nor explaining too much.
