Chapter 94 Escape
In the wilderness, after finally escaping from the tracking range of the blood shadow.
A huge fox that was still running suddenly twitched several times.
With a burst of wailing, Li Sian burst out of the fox's belly, his body covered in blood.
He was filled with evil energy, and no one could detect his original aura.
"It's so dangerous. The ability of that evil thing is really terrifying. It's neither human nor demon, but a ball of terrifying blood."
"Fortunately, I saved a hand, otherwise once caught by him, he would still die." I don’t know how miserable it will be.”
This place is very close to Tianhu County, and Li Sian no longer delays.
Arrived at the city gate, under cross-examination by several soldiers, he explained that he had encountered an evil spirit and fought with it to the death before escaping for his life.
He also took out his identity document and the documentary evidence of his high school case, and the faces of the several soldiers suddenly became particularly friendly.
Not only did they exchange greetings, they even offered to prepare a carriage to take Li Sian home.
After all, even ordinary scholars, once they enter the official career, can directly jump through several levels in the government office and become their superiors as soon as they enter.
The value of the case is even more different.
Throughout the past dynasties, it was basically only a matter of time before a talented man could pass the exam at a young age.
Once they win the imperial examination, not to mention ordinary soldiers like them, even the county magistrate will have to surrender and call them brothers.
After being driven home by the city guards, Li, Jiang Lei and others were shocked and frightened when their son came back covered in fresh blood and smelly.
I thought Li Sian was seriously injured outside.
But when Li Sian explained that the blood was shed by evil beasts, not only did he return safely this time, but he also became a high school criminal.
In short, Li Sian basically reported the good news but not the bad news, so that his mother would not only be unable to help him, but also worry about his safety in vain.
After listening to her son's explanation, Mrs. Li was sincerely happy for her son. She quickly took Jiang Lei to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous banquet for him to wash away the dust. At the same time, he congratulated him for being the first scholar in high school and for honoring his ancestors.
Just when Li Sian returned home, relaxing and comfortable.
The other two evil foxes used as cover were not so lucky.
After running for a distance, they had nowhere to go and were chased by the furious blood shadow.
I saw the blood shadow rushing straight into their bodies, as if they were integrated into one body.
But the next moment, the blood shadow separated from the evil fox's body again, taking away all the blood in the evil fox's body.
Only a shriveled, lifeless fox corpse was left.
“Hmph, when you leave Tianhu County, you will be a turtle in a urn!”
…………
Above the East China Sea.
After several years of struggle, Li Sheng has become a famous bounty hunter in the East China Sea.
As long as he can afford to hire them, Li Sheng can help them explore secret realms, find rare treasures, track down notorious thieves, or escort caravans.
A large ship carrying more than a hundred people. The hull is made of a rare material and is extremely hard.
There are twenty large-caliber cannons on board, as well as a large number of strong bows and crossbows. The hundreds of sailors are all carefully selected masters. They are not only brave and good at fighting, but also able to adapt well to various tasks on the ship.
In addition, there are more than a dozen capable people and five or six confidants who can be close to each other.
Li Sheng seems to have made a name for himself.
But today, he is facing a life and death crisis.
A giant beast twenty feet tall came overwhelmingly and swallowed it up.
Li Sheng continued his usual life-saving strategy, and under the cover of his companions, he rushed to the head of the terrifying beast.
Slaughtered in from the opponent's eye socket, preparing to kill this terrifying beast from the inside.
But after Li Sheng chopped open the opponent's eyes and rushed into the opponent's brain with the bloody flesh, a strong sense of dizziness swept over him.
When Li Sheng woke up again, he found that he was already in a boundless yellow world.
There is no concept of time and space. Looking up, except for the endless yellow soil, not even a blade of grass or a stone can be seen.
There are no stars, moon, or sun in the sky.
The entire space was also eerily silent, with no chirping of insects or birds, not even a wisp of breeze, it was extremely silent.
Li Sheng could only wander aimlessly in this yellow world, walking forward dejectedly, but it seemed that he could never find the direction.
Perhaps a day had passed, or perhaps a year had passed, but Li Sheng seemed to have forgotten his physical fatigue and was just walking aimlessly.
The gradually blurring consciousness can only rely on remembering his wife and children to constantly remind himself that he must leave this desperate situation.
At this moment, Li Sheng suddenly felt like water drops hitting his face, making his chaotic consciousness regain clarity.
I saw a woman wearing a plain robe walking from the opposite side.
Twisting the Dharma seal with the left hand, there are three purple gold light spots between the eyebrows. The whole body seems to have rays of light that flicker and fade, and the treasure is solemn.
But there are no shoes or socks on the soles of the feet, and they walk barefoot.
Behind him was a young monk, who seemed to be struggling to follow the woman in plain robes. The two passed each other without saying a word.
But Li Sheng suddenly reacted and hurriedly looked back to ask the other party where this place was and why he came here inexplicably.
But before he could speak, the woman chuckled:
"I didn't expect that there would be a lost person who loves his wife and children here."
"It is not suitable to enter further. Since you entered this place by mistake, you should leave as soon as possible. This is not a place where strangers can stay for a long time."
Li Sheng then hurriedly said that he didn't know how to leave, nor how he got here.
“Is this the mind of the giant beast?”
“What giant beast.” The woman shook her head slightly:
"This is a place outside the world, regardless of location or space."
"But since you don't know how to leave, it's quite difficult..."
After the woman finished speaking, she left. He took out a compass from his arms and reached out to bite it at the same time.
"But when you meet me, it is an opportunity. I will help you test the road ahead."
"Sister, please don't meddle in other people's business." The young monk hurriedly dissuaded you. ：
"You have already taken a big risk by venturing into this place to look for clues. If you meddle in other people's business, it will be even more dangerous."
The woman disagreed:
"Hey, you monk If you don’t cultivate enough, monks have no business to talk about. Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. "I will teach you more about the master someday and let you know what compassion is." >
The monk was scolded by the woman, but he also looked unconvinced:
"But senior sister, how many people have you helped along the way? You should have finished the matter a few days ago, but you have been grinding it back and forth, and it is still far away until today."
The woman saw the other party. After arguing endlessly, he had no choice but to turn his head and continue to explain to Li Sheng:
"Don't worry, my junior brother is such a sharp-tongued person. Even though he looks like this, he actually agrees with me to help you. ”
But even if Li Sheng had no eyesight, he could still see the dissatisfaction on the young monk’s face. It was obvious that he was not convinced both verbally and in his heart.
As the woman smeared the blood on the compass, a ray of light shot straight along the compass.
"Okay, follow this direction to the end, and then use the secret technique of resurrecting the soul to return to your own body."
"The secret technique of resurrecting the soul?" Li Sheng was confused when he heard this.
When the woman saw his appearance, she felt helpless and said:
"Well, it's normal if you can't. I happen to know a little bit about it, so I'll give you a ride."
"But your junior brother doesn't seem to be very happy..." Li Sheng looked at the warning look cast by the young monk and asked awkwardly.
"It doesn't matter, he was too happy to look like this."
I don't know how much time passed before Li Shengcai, led by the woman, stopped in front of a dry well.
This is the first time Li Sheng has seen something different in this boundless world.
"I will recite a spell for you later. When you see flames coming out of the well, jump down quickly and you will be able to return to your own body."
" Remember not to miss the opportunity, otherwise you will be in trouble.”
After saying that, just as the woman was about to start chanting the curse, Li Sheng seemed to remember something.
"Girl, I haven't had time to ask your name yet. I will definitely repay this kindness in the future."
"Speaking of repayment, I am more or less a half-Buddhist. We cultivate The Buddha saves people without seeking repayment.”
The young monk snorted behind him, looking very disapproving.
“As for my name...you can call me ‘Qian Guangzhi’.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw flames rising in the well, just like a fire well burning with blazing flames.
Li Sheng did not hesitate and jumped straight into the fire well. However, he did not feel any pain from the flames. Instead, he felt a spinning sensation.
The scene in front of me has returned to my ship.
As for Qian Guangzhi who stayed in the yellow world and was concentrating on chanting the mantra, the young monk behind him was chattering and complaining frequently.
"Okay, okay, I will never meddle in other people's business next time. Stop talking about it, in case it distracts me..."
"It's bad, it seems that I really missed one verse just now."
"What will happen if I miss one verse?" the young monk asked in shock.
Before he finished speaking, a flame burst out from the well and hit the two people beside the well.
The young monk's robes were directly ignited, and his whole body was ignited with flames. He was so frightened that he rolled on the ground desperately, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.
“This is the fire of ignorant karma, and there is no way to put it out like this.”
However, Qian Guangzhi had another secret method of protecting himself, and his clothes did not burn.
It’s just that the originally dazzling and charming appearance was blackened by the flames, making it look a little ridiculous.
Qian Guangguang pointed his finger, and a clear spring came from nowhere, extinguishing the evil flames on the monk's robes.
Before the other party could see the funny look on his face, Qian Guangguang wiped it casually, and the ashes on his face disappeared without a trace, regaining the solemn look of the previous treasure prime minister.
At the same time, Li Sheng also learned about his experience from his companions.
It turned out that the giant beast died not long after Li Sheng rushed into his mind and completely stopped moving.
Everyone on the boat hurriedly cut open the skull of the giant beast, and successfully found Li Sheng, who had been attacked by poisonous gas and had stopped breathing.
