The room instantly became quiet, and everyone's movements seemed to be frozen...
"Who are you?" Li Xiaoyao glanced at the people in the room in surprise, and finally stopped at Aunt Li. I just love surfing the Internet. "Aunt, you didn't..."
"Pfft~!" Aunt Li's body leaning on the bed suddenly leaned over, and a mouthful of blood spurted into the spittoon! She tremblingly took the towel, wiped the blood from her mouth, and said with some bitterness. "Xiaoyao, aunt has been holding back just now because she was worried that you would see her... I didn't expect you to see me anyway."
Perfect! He expresses his love for his juniors and his restraint on himself incisively and vividly! The image of an aunt who is kind and deeply loves Li Zi comes to life on the page! At this moment, Myrtles, you are so outrageous that your soul is possessed. There is no suspense about this year’s Oscars!
"Auntie!" Li Xiaoyao was moved to tears again.
Then the room seemed to come alive. Doctor Hong used his arms to support the fallen Aunt Li. Lu Xiaoer rushed to Aunt Li's side and patted her back gently. Wang Xiaohu also obediently came over and squatted beside the bed to beat Aunt Li's legs. Only Taoist Lu was left looking at it in a dilemma. He could only hand it over with the cup of tea he had drunk, "How about you drink some water and rinse your mouth?"
"Go!", such an ignorant behavior earned him a few rolls of eyes.
"Auntie, I'm leaving!" Li Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will ask for the fairy medicine back even if I die!" Li Xiaoyao turned around and rushed out the door without looking back.
"Be careful on the road." Aunt Li stretched out her hand tremblingly towards Li Xiaoyao's back, admonishing her affectionately.
Several people maintained this posture... for ten seconds, half a minute, three minutes... "I don't think he will come back again," Lu Yuan said, and several people collapsed with a cry. The situation just now was too scary, "Thanks to Aunt Li's acting skills, she vomited blood at the right time!"
It's time to rejoice. I saw Aunt Li falling on the bed, "Please take my pulse quickly. I seemed to have broken my heart pulse just now..."
*****
Let go of false illnesses and real illnesses. Not to mention the messy inn.
Li Xiaoyao took a boat out to sea, taking advantage of the calm sea in early autumn. It took less than half a day to arrive at the overseas Fairy Island.
Fairy Island is the place where Shuiyue Palace establishes its foothold. When choosing a location, it is natural not to choose an island too far from the coast. It's just that there are many rocks and undercurrents around the Fairy Island, and the Shuiyue Palace's misdirection technique in the sea fog makes the navigation situation very dangerous. Except for Shuiyue Palace, which owns the secret waterway in and out of the island, only the nearby fishermen are familiar with it.
Li Xiaoyao has played with these fishermen's children since he was a child. They are all neighbors and people, so it is natural for him to sail a boat to help him go to sea to seek medicine. It wasn't to pay for the boat that he started to go back to get the money - the children on the beach. There is no concept of giving money when taking a boat - but I am thinking about whether I really meet a fairy and can discuss buying and selling her elixir. In Li Xiaoyao's heart, there is probably nothing in the world that cannot be bought with such a big piece of red gold.
As for why he has such a strange idea - I can only say that "those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black" - no matter how much Lu Yuan pretends to be an ordinary person, he has nothing to say.
Li Xiaoyao often listened to him talk about ancient and modern times. In Lu Yuan's mouth, whether they were emperors, prime ministers, or gods and Buddhas, they were just mortals wearing a shiny coat. Whenever Lu Yuan talks about it, he will be stripped clean in the end. From Lu Yuan's perspective, his position is at most the same as those of those people. Of course there is nothing to say. Therefore, under the influence of his ears and eyes, Li Xiaoyao also lacked awe for gods, ghosts and the like. Since the gods and ghosts have fallen into the mortal world. Then of course we can discuss the issue of buying and selling.
In Lu Yuan's words, "After removing the mysterious shell, what is left may be a self-improving tease."
After arriving on Fairy Island, Li Xiaoyao wandered left and right in the forest without knowing where he was going, walking randomly along the sparse forest, and suddenly entered a green grassy open space. In the middle, there was indeed a stone statue of Asura, two people tall. !
He looked up and down and saw that the stone statue of Ashura had obviously been erected here for a long time, and the long grass had submerged the steps under the statue. Look at the traces of wind and rain on the surface of the Asura statue. The gaps between the stone statues are even covered with green moss, and no one has taken care of them for who knows how long. He suddenly thought of a poem that Lu Yuan had taught him. "The moss marks are green on the steps, and the grass is green on the curtains." - Brother Lu also said, "Rogues are not scary. I am afraid that the gangsters are educated." Could it be him?
Li Xiaoyao took out a hammer from his sleeve, but he hesitated in his heart.
The hammer was naturally the "Heaven-Breaking Hammer" used to break stone statues. It was given to Li Xiaoyao by the Miao leader when he left the inn. Li Xiaoyao is not a fool. Ever since he was severely deceived by Lu Yuan (for only ten cents!), he has to think three times before any stranger talks to him. Therefore, the leader of the Miao people said, "A son wants to raise a child, but he wants to raise a child." He doesn't believe even a single word of such nonsense as "I won't wait"!
What's even more irritating is that even though his aunt's condition is critical, why do so many people insist on talking to him? ! Doesn't it make him want to kill someone?
The man said that he had to smash the stone statue to enter Shuiyue Palace, but the stone statue was obviously old, so how did the people of Shuiyue Palace get in and out? And how did Wang Xiaohu get in when he asked for medicine? Even the fourth brother at the dock had seen a vicious old woman on the island... These were all doubts... But thinking about his aunt's condition, he gritted his teeth and raised the hammer and smashed it with all his strength!
Only a loud "dang" sound was heard! Li Xiaoyao felt his hands shake violently, and the force of the shock was so great that he couldn't help but throw the "Sky-Breaking Hammer" out! Fortunately, at this time, a burst of heat suddenly rose from his lower abdomen, which took away the strength on his arms. Otherwise, this shock alone would be enough to crack his jaw and even break his forearm!
"How could this stone statue be so hard?!" Li Xiaoyao was shocked. He is not a fool, he uses his maximum strength when he comes up. But he had tried it on the road, and the "Heaven-Breaking Hammer" was extremely powerful at hitting rocks, and could easily smash the bluestone into powder, so he hit it with full confidence - and almost ended up confessing himself here. "what is going on?"
Li Xiaoyao jumped into the grass first and picked up the "Sky-breaking Hammer". It was found that the pure iron hammer head had a crack, and it was obviously unusable. "I actually have such great power now?" He didn't know that Lu Yuan's patting and beating on him every day was actually helping him move Zhou Tian. Moreover, the energy of heaven and earth was uniquely endowed, and Li Xiaoyao had already accumulated a huge amount of it in his Dantian. "Shen Zhao Jing" internal power.
It's just that he doesn't know how to use the treasure, so his internal energy can only do some superficial power-producing and body-protecting functions spontaneously, and he doesn't listen to his orders at all.
When he climbed up the stone statue of Asura again, he suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Does Shuiyue Palace want to be so rich!?"
I saw that underneath the thin layer of broken stone skin of the "stone statue", there was actually a brilliant red gold light! Li Xiaoyao hammered with all his strength, but it only made a shallow crater less than half an inch. Obviously, this huge stone statue is actually made of pure gold, weighing several thousand kilograms! When he thought that there were six stone statues like Shuiyue Palace, Li Xiaoyao suddenly felt that his original idea of using money to buy medicine seemed very ridiculous...
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that these stone statues were just a by-product of someone practicing "turning stones into gold" when he was passing by - well..., and that person seemed to have forgotten about it a long time ago... when the trick was done When it becomes a habit, it will be a trap if you follow it casually.
"It's over," Li Xiaoyao sat on the steps of the stone statue in frustration. But within a moment, he jumped up again and looked for the path with renewed confidence! "I, Li Xiaoyao, will never give up!"
Testing in various directions, marking with stones, carving marks on trees... Li Xiaoyao kept running, trying every means to find a way to the island! Fortunately, the heat kept moistening his legs, making him never feel tired. Although the Ashura stone statue cannot be smashed, there is no doubt that it can be used as a good symbol. As Li Xiaoyao walked, he drew a map on the back of a book with the Asura statue as the center, constantly expanding the scope of exploration.
Within two hours, he found two other Asura statues and went about four or five miles deep into the forest. It's a pity that at a glance, there are endless seas of trees and ponds ahead. Looking at the small island from the outside, it seems to be vast...with no edges visible!
"It's not possible to bury your head in the search. What should I do? I need to think carefully." Li Xiaoyao sat under the statue of Asura again and stared blankly at the map drawn on the book, trying to find out A little bit of regularity comes out. "Wait... Why does this map look familiar? I think I've seen it somewhere before?!"
Li Xiaoyao quickly turned the book over, and sure enough - there were four big characters written on the cover - "Nine Swords of Dugu"!
He quickly opened it and found the last page - he saw that on the treasure map marked "Dugu Qiubai Xiangyang Bone Burial Ground Treasure Map, ps: There is a big eagle", there was a Part of the map is exactly the same as the one he just drew! (To be continued.)
