[Main Ancient Sword] Depend on each other

"Brother, can you accept my glutinous rice balls?"

The Miao woman in front of her is beautiful, with red lips and white teeth, innocent and enthusiastic eyes. Following her movements, the silver bell on her body shakes gently, making pleasant sounds.

The man who was blocked by her was wearing a blue and white Taoist robe and carrying a long sword. There was a scarlet seal between his frowning brows, and his expression was stern and a little irritable.

"Pfft." The woman next to him is about fifteen or sixteen years old, just about the age of a flower, but compared with the gorgeous Miao woman, she is very neatly dressed.She was wearing a blue and white Taoist robe, carrying a long sword on her back, and her hair was randomly tied up with jade hairpins. At this time, she was tilting her head slightly and smiling at the troubled man. "How many times is this? Brother Xuan Xiao is really handsome and charismatic, making the girls in Miao Jiang think like crazy, hehe~"

"Li Yi!" Xuan Xiao glared at her fiercely, it's fine if he doesn't help him, and he's still watching the fun from the sidelines, it's hateful!

"Why did Senior Brother Xuan Xiao call me? Don't let the girl misunderstand, she is still waiting for your reply ~ I will not disturb Senior Brother's good business, and go to the bamboo forest on the outskirts of the city first!" Li Yi pretended to flirt He brushed his hair, turned his head and left him to escape.

The two have been cultivating together for more than two years, and they have entered the bottleneck of cultivation one after another, and the connection between the two swords cannot be further improved for some reason.So Xuan Xiao asked Master Taiqing for orders, and went down the mountain with Li Yi to practice.It just so happened that a few days ago a disciple came to report that there were monsters in the Manzhou, and ordinary disciples suffered casualties. Taiqing took advantage of the opportunity to ask the two of them to come to check the situation, but before leaving, he repeatedly told them to pay attention to safety and not to act rashly.

Originally, Kikyo and the others also wanted to come, after all, after the last time the Li family caught a demon, someone specially wrote a letter to them with sincere words of greetings, profound connotations and elder-like demeanor. If Li Yi is optimistic about it, she will come to see her!But Taiqing "coincidentally" needed the help of the two of them for something, so he took the opportunity to dismiss them, obviously intending to let the two sword hosts, Li Yi and Xuan Xiao, cultivate their relationship.

Manzhou is located in the southwest and is the settlement of the Miao people.The two arrived here for the first time, and were deeply attracted by the completely different scenery here and the Central Plains, and they were waiting to take a good tour.Unexpectedly, from time to time, a Huaichun girl would bring glutinous rice balls to show her love to Xuan Xiao, which opened Li Yi's eyes. It turns out that the Miao family girls are so bold and unrestrained!Unfortunately, for Xuan Xiao, this kind of tireless harassment caused him a lot of headaches.And Li Yi's behavior of abandoning his companions is even more disgusting!

Outside the city of Manzhou is a lush bamboo grove, occasionally interspersed with a few bamboo buildings, which seem to have been abandoned, and it is difficult to distinguish them from a distance.People who come and go outside the city circle around at a distance, for fear that if they get close, some monsters will appear in the bamboo forest.Because it is such a quiet bamboo forest, I don't know how many people's lives have been taken away.It is said that half a month ago, some children disappeared in the bamboo forest, and their families could not find them, and finally found the leftover bones somewhere.

Immediately afterwards, some adults who were looking for disappeared, and some people even found that several households in the bamboo forest had also disappeared without knowing it.

The junior disciples of the Qionghua Sect happened to pass by here and came to check, but they were trapped in the bamboo forest and couldn't tell where they were. After being attacked, they still didn't find out who the assailant was.Although the injured were brought back to Qionghua in an emergency, several of them were so poisoned that their names were still on the line.Judging from the wound, it was the snake demon who caused the disturbance here.

"Li Yi, be careful with the evil spirit of the bamboo forest here, don't go deep alone." She just leaned into the bamboo forest and wanted to take a closer look, when Xuan Xiao's voice came from behind.

"Hee hee, senior brother, are you done with the matter?" Li Yi was obviously in a good mood and dared to continue teasing him.

"Don't mention this again, or don't blame me for turning my face." Xuan Xiao gave her a slightly warning threat, but Li Yi didn't care at all, still smiling.

"It's not a bad thing...Okay, okay, don't mention it, I won't mention it, let's talk about the business!" Xuan Xiao's face was originally fierce, and it was really scary when he stared at someone! "This bamboo forest feels weird. It looks bright and lush from the outside. Once it goes deep, it may be difficult for sunlight to penetrate, and it will inevitably leave many blind spots. I just checked from the sky. This bamboo sea is very large. After entering They must lose their direction very quickly, those Qionghua disciples should be in such a predicament."

This bamboo forest is very old, and the roots are luxuriant, almost every one is as tall as two of her.At this height, it is very easy to ignore the upper part when observing, and it is very dangerous to enter it.

"From the narration of the wounded, it can be seen that the monster will first separate them, and then attack them one by one with a sneak attack, but it can't hide itself."

"That's right, this monster is very good at taking advantage of the terrain here to hide. If we only observe from the air, we will definitely not be able to find him." She had tried it just now, and her eyes were green, and she couldn't tell the difference at all. Animals, not to mention monsters that are good at hiding. "Brother Xuan Xiao, tell me, if I burn this bamboo forest with a torch, will the monsters die together?"

Xuan Xiao glanced at her, and recently evoked a mocking smile. "Junior Sister is a good planner, but it's a pity that if you act like this, I'm afraid Manzhou won't be able to keep it."

"Don't look at me like that, isn't this a joke? I'm not Yun Tianqing, I think of crooked ideas all day long." Li Yi quickly waved her hands, does she seem to be such a cruel person?

"If Tianqing, he would not do this. Although he is messing around, he is soft-hearted, and he must be reluctant to part with the thousands of creatures in the forest."

"It's a pity, if he hadn't been punished by Elder Chongguang to return to the valley, wouldn't the three of us have more fun together?" It can be seen that although Xuan Xiao always preaches to Yun Tianqing, he still cares about him. "So, we can only walk in now?"

"If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you catch tiger cubs." After speaking, Xuan Xiao walked into the bamboo forest first.

At the beginning, I could barely distinguish the path I took when I entered, but after gradually deepening, I could no longer distinguish the direction.But it doesn't matter, if they want to leave, they can use their swords at any time. They came in to attract monsters to attack, and they can't just go back like this.

After walking for a while, Li Yi began to feel that something was wrong.The chirping of birds, beasts and insects in the forest gradually disappeared, and the existence of life could not be felt.The two stood up almost at the same time, and Li Yi immediately stood back to back with Xuan Xiao, silently guarding.

"Brother Xuan Xiao, how are you doing?"

"The monster has appeared, be on guard."

However, apart from the wind blowing bamboo leaves, there were no strange sounds or movements.

"Are you still there?" Why didn't she see anything?

"We are surrounded by a thick layer of evil spirit. Li Yi, you are wearing a prison, so you can't feel it." This ring is not good at this point, and it is sealed together with the spiritual sense that can sense danger, such as evil spirit. Something she couldn't feel at all.

"But if he doesn't move, do we have to go on like this forever?" Than patience?Then she has no chance to win! "Is there any other way?"

no respond.

Li Yi didn't dare to turn her head back, but she felt the cool wind blowing from behind, and it no longer carried someone's body temperature.

"Senior Brother Xuan Xiao?" Li Yi called out again, but there was still no response.

She immediately raised Wang Shu, and a icy air spread around her.

On the ground, three small green snakes were frozen into ice sculptures by the cold air, and the scales on their backs had already stood up.As long as Li Yi was one step behind, he would definitely be attacked by them.

These three snakes are just ordinary Zhuyeqing. Although they are extremely poisonous, they have not cultivated into monsters. Their actions must be manipulated by snake spirits.

Xuan Xiao's sudden disappearance confuses Li Yi. Even though the distance between the two is so close, how did the other party manage to make a person disappear without anyone noticing?Not only could she not see Xuan Xiao, she even lost her sense of Xi He, which meant that this was not just a simple obstacle method, but something more advanced, such as a barrier.

While she was thinking, she suddenly heard the sound of breaking branches from the bamboo forest on the left.

"Huh? Senior brother Xuan Xiao?" Xuan Xiao was walking through the bamboo forest. "Where did you go?"

"Just now I saw something suspicious flash past, so I immediately chased after it, and I forgot to tell you." He stopped two steps away from Li Yi's side, looking at the ground that was still covered with frost. "Have you been attacked? Where are you injured, let me see."

"Huh?" Before she could react, he suddenly took Li Yi's hand and examined it carefully.Xuan Xiao's fingers lightly brushed her fingertips and palms, and she didn't know if it was her illusion, but the place he touched was slightly hot, which made her subconsciously withdraw her hand. "It's okay, I found out that I was not injured in time."

"That would be the best." He suddenly showed an extremely gentle smile, which Li Yi had never seen before in his memory.At that moment, his smiling face overlapped with Chu Huang's, and she was stunned.Something is wrong!Xuan Xiao, that Xuan Xiao, would he show such a smile like Chu Huang?You don’t need to think about the answer, it’s absolutely impossible!

Wang Shu understood, and shot out in an instant, but "Xuan Xiao" dodged and hid.

"Li Yi, what are you doing?"

"Stop pretending, I know you're not Senior Brother Xuan Xiao." It's a pity that the blow just now failed to end him. "who are you?"

"You girl has good eyesight. Hmph, since you have come to my place, if you don't entertain me well, wouldn't you be fulfilling the friendship of the landlord?" Seeing that Li Yi had already seen through his identity, "Xuan Xiao" didn't She pretended again, but didn't show her true colors.Sly guy!

"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Yi threw Wangshu and finished casting the spell in an instant. The ground suddenly swelled up and bound "Xuan Xiao" standing on it. Wangshu instantly turned into six handles, blocking all escape routes of the opponent . "Transformation is like a sword!"

The moment the sword blade broke through his body, Li Yi understood that the "Xuan Xiao" in front of him was just a phantom, and his real body had gone to nowhere.Obviously there was still an entity when I contacted it just now, but now...

Is it the power of this bamboo forest?Is this an illusion, or a formation?If it's an illusion, then she should walk around, maybe she can find a flaw.But if it's a formation, it's best to stop still and see what tricks the enemy is playing. After all, formations are ever-changing, and she doesn't know anything about them.

Making up her mind to wait for the rabbit, Li Yi let Wang Shu float in the air, surrounded her for vigilance, and stretched out her hand to the ring on her left hand.

Suddenly, a white shadow flashed past somewhere in the field of vision, and before Li Yi could take a closer look, it disappeared into the green again as if teleporting.Li Yi didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately took off the ring on her finger, and immediately sensed that the shadow that seemed to be moving in an instant appeared behind her in the next breath.

The strange thing is that she didn't read the other party's thoughts. If it wasn't for the warning from her spiritual sense, she wouldn't even be able to confirm the other party's approach.

"Who?" Li Yi turned around vigilantly, but froze in place for a second.

In the mottled shadows of the bamboo forest, the man's white long gown was blown up by the wind, his flowing black hair was tied behind his head by a golden headband, his familiar gentle smile was cold and warm, and his eyes looking at her were the same as before. Soft and inclusive.

"Chu Huang!" Li Yi immediately wanted to rush forward as before, but stopped at a subtle distance of half a step away from him. "long time no see, how are you?"

"Xiao Yi, I haven't seen you for two years, you have grown up."
