The black figure rushed into the courtyard with a whirlwind, then stopped, letting out a heavy wheezing sound.
I took a closer look.
It turned out to be the big black dog raised by Li Miao - Heizi!
But at this moment, it looked very tired, with its tongue hanging out of its mouth. Apparently he ran a long way like crazy.
Not only that, there are many wounds of different sizes on its body!
After a cursory glance, there were at least a dozen.
Some have already formed blood scabs, and some are still bleeding slowly...
Looks very embarrassed!
Lao Cao and I were both shocked and rushed forward to greet him.
I knelt down and stroked it.
"Heizi, what is going on? How could you be so seriously injured? And where is Brother Li? Where has he gone?"
I was also concerned and confused, and I forgot that Heizi had not yet reached the level of being able to communicate with others.
Woof woof...
Maybe it was because he saw Lao Cao and me that he finally relaxed.
It screamed twice weakly, then its body went limp and fell into my arms.
A pair of shiny dog eyes were full of anxiety. Lift a dog's paw and keep pointing in a certain direction outside. At the same time, he struggled to stand up again, but failed several times.
I immediately understood what it meant.
"Heizi, you mean... let us go find Li Miao quickly? He is in danger!"
Woof woof woof!
Kuroko shouted, nodding vigorously.
Lao Cao and I both understood that something had indeed happened to Li Miao!
"Xiao Wu, what do you think of this situation now?"
"Of course I want to save Brother Li!"
"But Heizi needs to lead the way. But judging from its appearance, it must be exhausted and has reached its limit in all aspects. It must rest and relax."
"Woof woof woof!"
Heizi screamed hard, probably saying that it was fine, could still run, and could take us to find Li Miao.
But in fact, it can be seen at a glance that it has already reached the end of its power.
Lao Cao continued.
"Even if there are charms such as [Bi Qi Talisman] or [Returning Power Talisman], it still needs time to buffer. And it may cause damage to its body. Unless there is a higher level charm. But Xiao Wu, you should not carry it with you. Right? It will take time to draw first. Sigh..."
He looked a little sad.
Obviously the choice at hand is difficult.
"Elixir!"
I said solemnly.
"Just give Heizi a pill that can quickly restore his physical strength and ease his injuries."
Without waiting for Lao Cao to ask, I immediately connected with Xiao Yuan via telekinesis.
"Hey, damn fat bird. There is a very important thing. Let me ask you, when you and I went to the backyard of my master's house before, besides stealing my [Jie E Dan], did you steal any other pills? ?For example, the kind that can quickly recover physical strength and injuries."
Soon, Madoka replied to me.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Wu! You can't slander me with such nonsense. As I said, I didn't steal it, I just took a Jie Er Dan..."
"Stop making trouble. It's really important! Li Miao is missing, and Heizi just ran back to the cabin by the river. He is injured and exhausted. He needs elixirs with similar effects. Then he will take us to find Li Miao."
"Ah? There is such a thing! Then wait, I will fly over quickly. It's in Xiao Lizi's shabby wooden house, right?"
"okay."
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Listening to what Xiao Yuan meant, it turned out that it not only took one [Elixir] and put it there, but also many other types of elixirs!
Sure enough, this fat guy is a miser.
I told Lao Cao that Xiao Yuan soon came over with recovery and healing elixirs to reassure him.
At the same time, he gently stroked Heizi in his arms and asked him to wait patiently for a while.
Less than two minutes later, I heard the sound of flapping wings in the sky above me.
Madoka landed next to me, sounding surprised.
"This stupid dog was indeed seriously injured, wasn't it? Fortunately, I took out a [Healing Pill] at that time. It is also a high-level pill like the [Elixir]. Otherwise, its situation would not be optimistic. ”
I said hastily.
"Stop beeping, take it out quickly and give it to Heizi."
Madoka opened its mouth, made a cooing sound, and spit out a smooth black pill from its mouth. It also landed on my hand with some crystal sticky liquid.
"Hurry up and feed this stupid dog."
Heizi's expression suddenly became a little frightened, and he struggled subconsciously in my arms for a while.
It was obvious that it found this thing stained with Madoka's saliva a bit disgusting.
Madoka suddenly said angrily.
"You stupid dog, you really hate the bird master pill, you don't know the heart of a good bird!"
Is this all a mess of idioms and allusions?
I glared at it angrily, and then told Heizi that only by taking this pill can he recover quickly. Then take us to rescue Brother Li!
After Heizi understood, he didn't refuse anymore and let me put the pill stained with Xiaoyuan's saliva into his mouth.
After eating it.
really!
After just a few breaths, you can see that the wounds on Heizi's body that were still bleeding quickly stopped bleeding.
After only half a minute, all the wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
And Heizi also tried to stand up from my arms.
Three minutes later.
All the wounds on Heizi's body have scabbed over, and he can clearly feel that the aura emanating from it has recovered by more than 80%, close to 90%!
It shook the hair on its body, and there seemed to be an incredible light in its eyes - it was able to recover quickly in such a short period of time, and Heizi himself was surprised.
Madoka muttered.
"A high-grade elixir... is a very precious and rare thing! If it were sold in the ghost market, the price would probably be much more expensive than [Jie Er Dan]. After all, [Jie Er Dan] can cure zombie poison." Protecting the Heart Meridians is actually far less versatile than this [Healing Pill]."
I rolled my eyes at it.
"Can true friendship be measured by the value of items? If you are a stupid bird and you encounter any danger, I will rescue you even if I risk my life. Not to mention using pills or something."
This stupid bird has a proud expression in its eyes and flaps its wings.
"Oh, I know, I know. Mr. Wu, you value love and justice. The same goes for me. I just said it casually. Okay, let this stupid dog lead the way! Let's go rescue Xiao Lizi together."
So, Heizi started running wildly ahead.
At this time, it would be too much of a waste of time to go back to Lao Cao's coffin shop to get a Lingyun paper horse to ride on. So I directly pasted two [Speed Charms] on each of me, Lao Cao, and Heizi - Madoka can fly, and her speed is far faster than ours, so naturally she doesn't need it.
Heizi took us and ran on the river beach for a while.
Then he came to a bend in the river somewhere, pointed at the river with his front paws, and looked at us again.
The meaning is obvious: jump in!
We didn’t ask any questions, just followed Heizi and jumped into the water.
I suddenly felt a very fast undercurrent, carrying us rapidly downstream!
Woof woof woof!
Heizi yelled a few times, and I probably guessed what he meant.
Running on land is too strenuous. If we want to go downstream, we might as well just soak in the river. Let this fast-moving undercurrent in the river take us downstream...
It's quick and effortless!
As long as you pay a little attention, all kinds of river spirits and corpses you may encounter in the river at night will be dead.
However, although Heizi is a dog, he is very familiar with Kawajiang as the pet of the body hunter. In addition, Lao Cao and I have high cultivation levels, and there is still Xiao Yuan in the sky.
There is almost no danger, and there will be no blind spirits or corpses to provoke.
After being carried downstream by the undercurrent for about half an hour, Heizi made another sound of barking, seeming to be preparing to go ashore.
I turned around and took a look!
Not far ahead, I saw that the Sichuan River branched off into a tributary toward the southeast.
On both sides of this stream, the mountains are steep.
I suddenly saw a vague black cave, silhouetted in the moonlight...
