At the same time, a black snake on the ground jumped hard and rushed towards Moon Butterfly. Xiao He had quick eyes and quick hands. He swung the Nixian Sword forward and cut off a long snake that shot straight towards Yue Die's front door. The two snake bodies on the ground were twisted and twisted, and they continued to struggle to death. Xiao He sent out another palm, and under a burst of fire, the black snake was completely dead.
"It's so dangerous!" Yue Die sighed.
Xiao He said with a smile: "You have such a high level of cultivation, but you are also afraid of poisonous snakes?"
Yue Die replied: "Of course I'm not afraid of ordinary poisonous snakes, but the venom is relative. If it is a poison similar to mine, I will naturally take more precautions. When I was in the God's Domain, there was a man who lived in Yuheng City. A senior who holds an important position has cultivated to the 23rd level, but he accidentally stepped on a thousand-year-old poisonous insect while wandering around. The toxin was unable to be discharged from the body. He persisted for more than four hundred years, but he still died from the poison."
While the two were chatting, several venomous snakes on the ground all raised their bodies. When Xiao He saw their attacking posture, he immediately stretched out his palms. Two flames instantly swept the area in front of the two of them, and all the venomous snakes and the corpses of the monsters were fired at the same time. Turn into black carbon.
Yuedie on the side sighed: "Actually, I have been surprised how you can cultivate the three attributes of wood, fire and ice at the same time."
Xiao He smiled mysteriously, and did not answer Yuedie's question, but said: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. I don't know if there are any other poisons nearby. Let's leave here first. I will tell you in detail when I have the chance."
After saying that, Xiao He took Yue Die and walked south quickly. It was still dark, the stars and the moon were dim, and it was the darkest moment before dawn. The two gradually slowed down their pace. Under the gentle night breeze, they finally relaxed from the lingering power of the big storm. At this time, the two of them were close to the edge of the desert.
On the horizon not far away, a rose-colored dark light gradually turned fiery red until it illuminated the entire land, and the sun finally rose. The two of them also discovered that the green vegetation under their feet was getting denser and denser. They knew in their hearts that they were almost out of this desert.
Xiao He stopped and looked at a low mountain not far away jumping up. Then he stood on a high place and looked into the distance. After a few breaths, he flew back to Yue Die and said, "There seems to be traces of life ahead. !」
"How is this possible?" Yue Die exclaimed.
"There are indeed people living here." Xiao He said, "Who do you think these people are?"
Yuedie thought for a while and said: "It is basically impossible for them to be from the seven major cities. First, I have never heard of the seven major cities sending people to station in such a far place. Second, there is really no one stationed here. Necessary. If my guess is correct, the people who can survive on the edge of this desert must be aboriginal people. Another possibility is casual cultivators. The aboriginal people are more likely."
"Then my identity..." Yue Die said hesitantly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao He leaned over and looked at the red cross structure tattoo on Yuedie's leg. After thinking for a while, he said, "Shall I help you transform it?"
"You can do this too?" Yue Die asked in surprise.
"It's just painting, why not? When I first learned alchemy, I extracted a lot of herbal essences. Some of the essences of pink flowers should be used as dyes. It's a pity that I lack some other tools." Xiao He explained.
Yuedie smiled slightly, not knowing why she was happy. She elegantly took off the hairpin on her head, handed it to Xiao He's hand, and said, "Try this." After that, she stretched out her hand to pull the hem of her skirt higher, completely exposing it. With white and smooth legs, she looked at Xiao He with a smile.
The way Xiao He looked at Yuedie seemed to be conveying some inexplicable emotion, which made him dare not think too much. Instead, he looked at the hairpin in his hand and said, "As expected of a cultivator from the main city, even the hairpin is Magical weapon!" After saying that, he knelt down and inserted the flower essence he extracted with the Xu Bamboo Cauldron into the skin bit by bit through the moon butterfly's hairpin. After a long time, a pink butterfly appeared on the moon. The butterfly's legs are lifelike.
Yue Die looked at the work Xiao He had just finished on her lap, feeling indescribably happy.
"Okay, now we can go on the road with peace of mind, but you will have nothing to do with Wuyang City from now on." Xiao He said.
When Yuedie heard Xiao He's reminder, she suddenly felt a feeling in her heart.
He was hurt, but he quickly smiled and said: "From the moment they used me as a stepping stone, I have nothing to do with them. From now on, you are the only person I trust in heaven and on earth."
Xiao He felt moved in his heart, but he still did not give Yue Die any more reply. He knew that his heart had already been promised to her, and he should not give hope to anyone in the future.
In this way, the two of them continued on their way towards the area Xiao He saw.
The two of them walked farther and farther, and there was no trace of sand on the ground under their feet. It was replaced by a patch of low green vegetation. If they walked further, they could see an almost dry river bed. Xiao He looked forward along the river bed. It seemed that someone was moving in the river bed. So he took Yuedie and walked towards that person.
As I got closer, I saw that the other party was a young girl with long yellow hair and light blue eyes. She was also wearing a light blue sarong. At the moment, she was rolling the skirt down to her knees and picking something up at the bottom of the river.
Xiao He took two steps forward, stood by the river and greeted politely, saying, "Hello, girl, where is this place?"
The girl raised her head and looked at the two of them cautiously for a long time. She probably didn't see the tattoos of the seven major cities, so she said with confidence, "Who are you? Where do you come from?"
Xiao He heard the other party's rhetorical question and said patiently: "Girl, don't panic. We are two casual cultivators. We walked into this desert accidentally, but we didn't expect to encounter a storm. We hid in the desert for several days before luckily escaping, so we also I don’t know where I’ve gone!”
"Then you are so lucky!" After hearing Xiao He's explanation, the girl looked very surprised and continued: "Almost no immortal cultivator can escape the black storm in the desert! But if you want to go back the same way, you are already going the wrong way. Here is the direction, this is the end of the desert, Hanhai Town."
"Black storm? You mean what we experienced was a black storm?" Yue Die asked in surprise.
The girl nodded and continued: "Yes, this black storm blows several times every year. Even the aborigines who are most familiar with the desert have a hard time escaping from the black storm. It seems that you are not only lucky, but also have good cultivation. It must be pretty good too.”
Xiao He smiled and said: "Where is it? I see the girl is alone in this river bed. I wonder what she is picking?"
Hearing this, the girl sighed and said, "My father went into the desert yesterday to shoot some yellow sheep, but he didn't want to be bitten by a poisonous snake. I want to pick some aglossus to detoxify him."
Xiao He thought for a while and said tentatively: "The two of us also have some medical skills. I don't know where your father is now. If possible, I can try to treat your father."
"Really?" The girl was overjoyed when she heard this and said excitedly: "You really know how to detoxify?"
"You can try it." Xiao He said.
"Okay, please come with me!" After the girl said that, she threw the last few herbs in her hand into the basket, climbed up to the shore, and led Xiao He and Yuedie towards their tribe.
The girl walked in front, Yuedie and Xiao He followed slowly behind.
"Why should we bother ourselves? Wouldn't it be better to just go on our way?" Yuedie asked quietly beside Xiao He.
Xiao He explained: "The aborigines of Tongtian Fortress all have unique survival skills, which may be helpful for our next trip. What's more, after obtaining the Dragon Heart Fire and Heaven's Tears, we have to return the same way. Maybe we can return to where we came from." The residents learned how to deal with the dangers in the desert."
Yue Die nodded and said, "I hope everything is as you think. This place is so remote, I think the aborigines here will not be as friendly to the casual cultivators as the group of friends you met before."
"Proceed with caution!" Xiao He responded in a low voice.
The river was not far from the town, and the two soon followed the girl into the town.
Bungalows are built up from loess, sand, and yellow stones. This is the main landscape of this town. Aboriginal people have lived here for generations, and no one has left or visited. Xiao He and Yuedie were incompatible with this small town and soon attracted the attention of many people. The town is not big and can be easily covered by spiritual consciousness.
"There are no immortal cultivators." The two of them entered the town and began to explore the situation here, saying in unison. However, they are worried about the aborigines’ treatment of immortal cultivators for generations.
hostility, they are also extremely careful.
A middle-aged man walked towards him, with his upper body bare and wearing a pair of animal skin trousers. He carefully looked at Xiao He and Yue Die, and then asked the girl: "Youyue, who are they? How do you take care of the baby?" Is the person back?"
"Youyue." Xiao He muttered silently in his heart.
You Yue answered: "Brother Dadi, they are immortal cultivators. I asked them to remove my father's snake venom!"
The man called Dadi pulled You Yue closer and whispered, "Be careful of being deceived!" After saying that, he looked at Xiao He and Yue Die again and said, "I'm sorry, you two, we are here. We do not accept strangers, please leave quickly."
"We just want to help." Yue Die said immediately.
The man named Dadi was about to say something else, when an old voice came from the stone house behind the man and said, "Invite them in!"
"Daddy!" Youyue shouted and ran into the house. Dadi had no choice but to turn around and invite Xiao He and Yuedie in.
The furnishings inside the stone house are simple, almost the same as those of the tribe outside, except that most of the tribe houses where Xiao He is sitting are built on trees. An old man was lying on a simple couch in the stone house. He was covered with a thin quilt, leaving only the right calf exposed. The wound bitten by a poisonous snake was clearly visible. The skin around it was black and purple, and a large pustule was raised. . Xiao He knew at a glance that the old man's poison had penetrated deep into his bones. At this moment, Youyue was feeding the old man hot soup.
"The elder is so poisoned that even the doctors in the town can't do anything. Are you really able to cure this poison?" Dadi looked at Xiao He and said with some doubt.
Xiao He smiled and said nothing, and came to the bedside to check the old man's injury. As soon as he checked it, Xiao He suddenly felt something was wrong. This poison was not like that of ordinary monsters. This was what he was puzzled about. If it was really just a poisonous snake in the desert, how could the aborigines who had lived here for generations not have a way to fight it? ?
Yue Die saw something strange about Xiao He and stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao He shook his head, looked at the old man with serious brows and asked, "Old man, please tell me carefully about the poisoning."
