Chapter 46
Chapter 46
Xie Ran had a very long dream.
The dream was very messy, and he didn't remember the specific content afterwards. He only remembered that he had been in a very worrying state—worried about the safety of his friends, mother, and clansmen...worried about everything he could think of.
Emotions can be remembered.
He didn't sleep well and was always hot.
The word heat can be called the lifelong enemy of all fire races in the Three Realms.
Even the Qingluan clan, which is close to the "divine beast", has to live in a cool place, lest the young birds in the clan cannot bear the heat and be burned to death by their own fire.
...So in fact, this time, Xie Ran slept in a bit of pain.
Even a little suffocated.
It started when he drank the Yin Qi Jing Xuan gave him.
Perhaps a side effect of repairing the wound.
If he's awake, he'll know why he's suffocating—because he's somehow turned into himself, a giant fluffy blob.
The larks are huge in size. If they are not controlled, each adult lark will look like a hill.Obviously, Xie Ran in his sleep couldn't control himself, his body not only filled the cave, but also kept getting bigger.
Jing Xuan watched helplessly as a crack visible to the naked eye appeared on the stone wall above his head, and the crackling sound of "Kaka" could be heard endlessly.
He took a step back, avoiding a piece of gravel that happened to fall from above his head. The small stone "slapped" and scraped the corner of his clothes to the ground.
Jing Xuan couldn't help shouting: "Xie Ran? Wake up!"
click... click...
His call did not get Xie Ran's response, but instead made the surrounding mountain walls crack and muffled.
As the mountain wall gradually cracked, Jing Xuan retreated farther and farther until he reached the entrance of the stone cave.
Crack...crack...crack...bang...crack...boom...
The cracking sound became louder and louder. Jing Xuan raised his head in surprise, and saw a bowl-sized crack appear on the mountain wall outside the cave, as if the whole mountain was about to be split in the middle.
He wasn't worried that such movement would attract the attention of the ghost clan - when he entered this area, he specially chose the inner area - what he was worried about now was whether Xie Ran would hurt himself, after all, it was a mountain, And the stones look hard.
If you don't rely on spells, but rely on your body alone, even Jing Xuan can't force a mountain by himself.
He was a little worried about the little bird.
"Xie Ran? Thank you Ran!"
Jing Xuan called to Xie Ran loudly, hoping to wake him up, but there was no response there, only pieces of broken boulders rolling down from the top of the mountain.
The sound shook the sky, and the mountains fell and the ground cracked.
boom - boom -
Seeing that the mountain was completely cracked, Jing Xuan was afraid of hurting Xie Ran, so he dared not use magic to split the stacked boulders, so he couldn't help raising his voice: "Xie Ran! Are you awake? Squeak when you wake up! Tell me if you are okay !"
There was silence for a while.
Then, a strange bird call suddenly came from the dusty ruins.
The dust gradually dispersed, and a huge plush bird head emerged from a crack in the mountain with a confused expression: "... Chirp?"
His body was still in the mountain, looking like a sea turtle with a bird's head, its belly turned upside down.
"..."
Jing Xuan couldn't believe her eyes.
It is true that he had seen Xie Ran's body in a hospital in the human world before, but the blue bird was definitely not that big at that time.
Secondly, time goes back to when Xie Ran was a child. In the memory that Jing Xuan has not yet fully recovered, he also saw his real body, but Xie Ran was not an adult at that time, nor was he so old.
Third, he was worried that he was worried to death just now, but the "person" who was worried suddenly appeared in a cute way...
He successfully choked.
"Chirp?"
The huge lark tilted his head covered with blue feathers, a bunch of red hairs on the top of his head flickered, and his round green eyes were half-opened in bewilderment.
He flapped his wings, but got stuck in the mountain and couldn't get out.
Obviously, this lark was a little anxious, raised its neck and shouted loudly: "Chirp!"
He couldn't free himself.
Fortunately, a helper was attracted.
Jing Xuan sighed dumbfoundedly, floated to his side, and said softly: "Don't move around, I'll rescue you, okay?"
He was also not sure if the little bird could understand, because from the fact that he could only sing birds but not speak human words, Xie Ran might not have woken up yet.
Occasionally, the Yaozu will enter such a state when they are injured-show their true colors and act like beasts, but this does not mean that they have recovered, but it is a sign that their injuries are not healed.
Although Jing Xuan looks very young, he may actually be one of the oldest ghost clans in the entire ghost world, so he is unexpectedly... very patient with "young" creatures.
"Young creatures" also includes Xie Ran, who is about 100 years old.
Seeing that Xie Ran Xiaoniao did not respond, Jing Xuan asked again: "How are you?"
"Chirp? Chirp..." The little bird fluttered, as if it wanted to pounce on Jing Xuan.
Seeing his friendliness, Jing Xuan accepted it as Xie Ran.He observed the arc of Bailing's body exposed outside the mountain, and then roughly judged how much force he would use based on the diameter and direction of the rock, and then put his palm on the mountain wall.
Powerful Yin Qi instantly poured into the rock, breaking through the uncracked parts, and the mountain was finally completely destroyed under the joint efforts of the two of them.
The giant bird finally regained its freedom. He rolled forward and crashed into Jing Xuan's arms.
The bird's head rubbed against Jing Xuan's body, and the soft feathers stroked Jing Xuan from head to toe. The soft and thick feathers seemed to wrap Jing Xuan up.
"Chirp!"
Poor Jing Xuan ate a mouthful of bird feathers and was too embarrassed to push him away.
He felt the high temperature coming from the bird, it was because Xie Ran was still running a fever.
It's not an option to go on like this, he doesn't have much experience in raising birds.
Fortunately, the natural Yin spring is not far away, Jing Xuan stretched out his head from the pile of bird feathers, and hugged him: "Don't move around...follow me over there."
The huge "little" bird seemed to be very close to him, rubbing against him with squinted eyes, and did not resist.Jing Xuan took the opportunity to "lift" the giant bird, moved towards Yinquan, and then threw him into the water with a "bang".
"Chirp!"
The spring water wet the feathers, but the shady feeling made the giant bird very comfortable, he yelled happily, his huge body swam back and forth in the even bigger pool, and even waved his wings, "Chirp chirp! "
The giant bird is so big, its wings will naturally look bigger when it spreads out, Jing Xuan was caught off guard while standing by the pool, and was splashed with water.
He couldn't get angry, though, because the bird seemed to be beckoning him to join him in the pool.
...This should be a sign of intimacy.
Maybe a little out of place.
But Jing Xuan was really hit by the squinting smile of the giant pompom.
Forget it.
Jing Xuan thought, since he was injured anyway, why not take a dip in the pool together.
He followed suit.
Little Bailing showed endless welcome to his arrival, and happily spun around in the pool.After getting bigger, Xie Ran's efficiency in absorbing Yin Qi seems to have also increased, and the surrounding Yin Qi continued to fade at a speed visible to the naked eye. For a while, the surface of the Yinquan Lake was full of black air that churned and disappeared, and the big one in the center The bird becomes that "sponge".
"Chirp—"
Little Bailing yelled in satisfaction.Jing Xuan also seized the time not far away to absorb the Yin Qi.
There was no danger around him for the time being, his muscles and bones were itchy from the yin qi, so he closed his eyes and let the big bird toss around.
The influx of Yin Qi was like pouring moist water on the dry body, Jing Xuan closed his eyes to rest his mind, and remembered some other old things.
The Bailings are good at singing, they always get together in beautiful places, and sing to each other.
Whenever he heard Bailing singing, Jing Xuan always felt that all his troubles were left behind, and he was very comfortable, so he liked to go to the territory of the Bailing clan to listen to ditties.
I noticed Xie Ran in one afternoon.
The sky in the ghost world didn't change much, and it was the same that day, the sky was gloomy.
Fireflies floated on the river surface, illuminating the surrounding bones and flowers growing all over the mountains and plains. A group of larks gathered by the river and sang songs like in the past.
The loyal audience, Mr. Ghost King, arrived a bit late, but he didn't treat himself badly, and still chose an excellent listening position.
Then he noticed a little lark squatting by the river, watching those big larks sing.
As far as he knew, there was no rule among the Larks that "young birds are not allowed to participate in singing activities", so curious, he floated over and squatted beside the little bird.
Contrary to the appearance, creatures in the ghost world usually have a very huge body. The ghost king himself is a thousand-foot-tall black shadow. He is afraid of scaring the birds, so he specially keeps a distance.
In fact, he doesn't usually pay much attention to this, but he did pay attention that day.
Lord Ghost King squatted down and asked, "Why don't you sing?"
He thought that he would see a teary face crying to him about being bullied.
However, no.
Although the little Bailing was not an adult, he was extremely cool. He gave Mr. Ghost King a cold look, and said with an idiot expression, "I'm singing out of tune."
A little monster who has a bad temper and can't sing has appeared among the demon clan who are good at singing.
Lord Ghost King, who had a good time, immediately remembered this special little lark.
Later, it seemed logical to go to the Bailing Territory and play with Xie Ran, but this first meeting left a deep impression on him.
Thinking of this, Jing Xuan who closed his eyes suddenly evoked a shallow smile.
... "Paradise", the "paradise" he said, turned out to be this picture.
The return of memory also means the return of power, Jing Xuan can feel that his strength is recovering.
But if he wanted to fully return to his previous level, he still had to get the key.
At that time, when he stripped part of his power out of his body and locked it in a box for the doll to use as a "database", he left a key.
Later, he was attacked by a puppet, and the key was naturally still in the palace.
If you want to open the box and retrieve the power, the box key is essential.
At the beginning, Jing Xuan didn't know where the puppet hid the key. Before Xie Ran found him, Jing Xuan had been investigating this near the palace. Fortunately, he already had some clues.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a bright light in front of his eyes, as if the giant bird as big as the mountain that blocked the light suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, Jing Xuan felt heavy in his arms.
——The fainted Xie Ran just fell into his arms.
humanoid.
Jing Xuan caught him in a hurry, and quickly touched his forehead——after a burst of heavy breathing, Xie Ran's fever seemed to subside.
But he inhaled too fast, and the Yin Qi could not be fully digested. At this moment, his small palm-sized face was still flushed as if drunk, and his long eyelashes covered an inch below his eyes, and he was sleeping peacefully. Xiang and sweet.
The tip of his nose rubbed against Jing Xuan's shoulder, and when he breathed, hot air could be sprayed to Jing Xuan's neck.
More and more images came to my mind—the little bird walking, the little bird flying, the little bird bickering with him, and the little bird carrying him to the distance.
Jing Xuan suddenly had an illusion, as if Xie Ran grew up watching him.
He couldn't help lowering his voice: "Xie Ran?"
Xie Ran didn't answer.
"Then go to sleep." Jing Xuan stroked the broken hair on the side of his face, and there was a smile in the corner of his mouth that he didn't realize.
……
No matter how much they wanted to get rid of the fake ghost king as soon as possible, it still took three full days to heal the burns caused by the real fire of Tianyang under the nourishment of rich yin qi.
Jing Xuan and Xie Ran talked about their plans.
After the fake ghost king was injured, his body became weaker, and he needed more supplements from the real fire of the soul. At this time, they could take advantage of the situation and find Jing Xuan's key to retrieve his power.
As long as Jing Xuan's strength can be restored to its full state, it is no problem to deal with a fake ghost king.
However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. When they left the natural labyrinth and found it again, they found that many major events had happened in the ghost world during their recuperating days.
——The weak fake ghost king became angry with embarrassment, and sent ghost clans to chase those fleeing larks.And even with the flame territory, the weak larks really couldn't fly much distance.
Fortunately, Qingluan headed by Qingyi got the news and came to help.
The False Ghost King had an agreement with the Qingluan clan, and he didn't intend to hurt Qingluan, but Qingluan, who used to live in the Bailing territory, had long regarded himself as a member of the Bailing clan, and didn't give the ghost clan any face.So the two sides fought fiercely for two days, and the ghost clan lost to their own hands and feet, watching those Qingluan take away all the Bailing clan.
After hearing the news, the fake ghost king became mad. He didn't care that his injury was still not healed, so he planned to come to the door to ask for an explanation, and asked why the Qingluan clan broke the agreement.
"Do you want to go back and have a look first?" Jing Xuan asked Xie Ran after clarifying the ins and outs.
Xie Ran is no longer what he was before - he ate too much yin qi, and was in a hurry to get out of the grain, he couldn't fully digest it, and he was two circles fatter than before.He squinted his eyes and said: "No, I believe that mother and the others can guard the valley. Since the fake is not in the palace, it is just right for us to go in and find your key."
Jing Xuan looked at him deeply: "I'm afraid you miss your mother."
When he was injured, he turned into his own body, crushed a mountain, and frantically rubbed against Jingxuan, acting like a baby. Xie Ran still remembered it himself, so after he regained consciousness, he was always a little embarrassed to face Jingxuan, and he couldn't stand his focused gaze.Xie Ran couldn't help but turned his head and said, "It's the same if you find your things... You are obviously very happy, so why did you reject my proposal?"
Jing Xuan: "How can you tell that I am happy?"
"You are laughing." Xie Ran pointed out unceremoniously.
"Is there?" Jing Xuan rubbed his face.
Of course there is, but Xie Ran doesn't plan to talk to him anymore, he feels embarrassed when he sees him now.
Xie Ran turned around and flew towards the palace.
Without the fake ghost king, it was much easier for Jing Xuan to find things—that was the place where he had lived for many years.
However, the key was found very quickly, and the two searched the palace upside down, but they couldn't find the "database".
Xie Ran, who lost a lot of weight after digesting Yin Qi, touched his jaw line which had just recovered to [-]%, and asked doubtfully, "Could it be that he took your box away?"
Not impossible.
It's a "database" after all, and helps make the puppet think better.
And after so many years, the fake ghost king may have figured out how to use the things in the box.
Without much time to hesitate, they rushed towards the place where Qingluan lives together.
There's a big fight going on there.
The yin and yang trees in the valley are burning with fire.
——Tianyang is really hot.
When they arrived, most of the forest was almost burnt down. Countless ghosts and Qingluan were fighting fiercely in the forest. The black yin energy collided with the blue flames, and everywhere they went was a mess.And the fake ghost king was wrestling with the three Qingluan, both of them looked very embarrassed.
Tianyang True Fire can restrain the ghost clan, but the ghost clan is not incapable of fighting by sacrificing themselves.
just.
"I think those ghosts didn't fight with all their strength?" Xie Ran observed for a while, then whispered, "I heard that the false ghost king who committed crimes has done many things that caused dissatisfaction among the ghosts, could it be..."
"You can't tell." Jing Xuan said, "I have never been a big villain who relies on power to convince others."
"Tsk tsk." Xie Ran shook his head in disgust.
Jing Xuan: "Why, you seem to have a problem with my statement?"
"I can see that you don't rely on power to convince people," Xie Ran said, "but you may not be a big villain."
Jing Xuan: "??"
"I still remember that you snatched my bean curd without saying hello."
"..."
Jing Xuan laughed, and laughed for a long time: "You really hold a grudge."
Xie Ran expressed his acquiescence.
After a while, Jing Xuan lowered his head: "I saw the box, it was hanging on his waist."
"The black one?" Xie Ran also saw it.
"Yeah." Jing Xuan tossed the key he just got, "I'll go up and steal it... for a light?"
"Do you want to help you distract him?"
"It would be best if possible." Jing Xuan bowed to express his gratitude.
Xie Ran stood up: "Tianyang True Fire will hurt you, be careful."
"It will hurt you too," Jing Xuan said, "don't worry me."
"..." Xie Ran's footsteps staggered for a while, and he quickly returned to normal, "It's about to go."
"Okay." Jing Xuan snapped his fingers.
They reached a tacit agreement and rushed out together.
Xie Ran who was finally "satiated" was like a small electric plane that had just been fully charged, and flew in front of the fake ghost king almost in an instant, and attacked the fake ghost king together with the three green luan.
The blue flames burned up all over the sky, and the situation of the battle suddenly changed——
In the box, Jingxuan's previous strength, previous experience and thinking are contained.
Outside the box is Jing Xuan himself who has returned after traveling around the world.
People can still grow after traveling, let alone the born spirits and ghosts.
This is bound to be an uphill battle.
But will win.
They believe so.
Because a fake is a fake, and the real one...is not alone.
