Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 370 Doctors cannot heal themselves

Zuo Lingquan was wrapped in pink petals, stuck close behind Sister Yingying, and smashed into the ground using the Earth Escape Technique.

After more than ten feet into the ground, the dark red poisonous mist raging behind was completely cut off by the ground.

Although this place is a barren mountain, the underground structure is extremely delicate, with a large number of special rocks forming barriers that isolate the underground atmosphere.

After Zuo Lingquan passed through the rock formation, he felt a wave of aura coming from deep underground. The strength was different and chaotic, as if there was a busy city below, but not a single aura belonged to a living person.

Cui Yingying used her magic to clear the way, her mature and beautiful cheeks lost three points of color, but her expression was as usual, solemn and majestic, like a strong aunt protecting the junior.

Sensing the chaos in the underground atmosphere, Cui Yingying slowed down, and the first words she spoke were not to remind her of the situation below, but to lecture her slightly displeasedly:

"You brat, why do you dare to do something in any situation? A group of juniors were watching below just now, how do you want me to explain to the juniors?"

Zuo Lingquan paid attention to the underground situation and did not sense the particularly strong Monster Qi, so he breathed a sigh of relief:

"I saw Sister Yingying being beaten by a snake. I didn't pay attention to anything else and rushed towards her..."

"What do you mean I was beaten?"

Cui Yingying looked back at Zuo Lingquan with dissatisfaction in her eyes:

"What can a black snake that has run out of oil do to me? I can't deal with a monster that you can kill with just one sword? It's obviously your own blind courtesy..."

Zuo Lingquan nodded: "Yes, yes, it's me who is being so attentive."

"What's your tone?" Cui Yingying stared.

"Haha..." Zuo Lingquan smiled a little, and while diving underground, he put his arm around Sister Yingying's shoulders and said softly:

"Sister Yingying is a pharmacist. If the martial arts cultivator around you is not dead, you should not be allowed to take the lead. I ran out to help to play my role, not because I thought Sister Yingying couldn't beat her. Touching Sister Yingying's face afterwards was purely I was a little carried away by the spring breeze, forgetting the occasion..."

When Cui Yingying heard this, the displeasure in her eyes subsided slightly.

She just knew that Zuo Lingquan was in front of him. Zuo Lingquan jumped out with a sword and killed the mysterious snake. She was very excited when she saw it, but naturally she couldn't express these feelings in front of Zuo Lingquan.

Cui Yingying naturally couldn't pretend she didn't notice being hugged by the shoulders, and squeezed gently with her shoulders:

"Be honest, are you feeling itchy again? I haven't dealt with what happened just now..."

"This place is quite weird. I'm a little scared. I want to hold Sister Yingying in my arms to make me feel more at ease."

"You're scared?"

"Um."

Zuo Lingquan looked nervous.

"..."

Cui Yingying didn't know what to say. There was no one around and she immediately went underground. She didn't bother to care about it anymore. She took Zuo Lingquan to break through the ground and came to the underground space.

Zuo Lingquan originally thought that the underground was a natural cave or mine, but after breaking through the rock from the zenith of the underground space, the scene he saw surprised him.

The underground space is very large. Viewed from above, it is a square platform. On the platform, you can see the ancient formation patterns. The words are human characters, but the handwriting does not look like it was carved with a knife or pen.

In the middle of the platform is an old well with a coiled snake. The wellhead is three feet in diameter. The spiritual energy is so rich that it can be seen with the naked eye, showing a light black color. Not surprisingly, it is the source of Shajiang's spiritual veins.

The platform was not clean, and was densely covered with twisted and twisted snakes. The small ones were only two fingers long, and the large ones were nearly ten feet long. They covered an entire layer. It was estimated that there were hundreds of thousands of them, but there were no formed monsters.

The edge of the platform is surrounded by a river, and there are piles of snake skins, snake scales and other debris inside, as well as some human and animal bones. There is no smell, but a strange fragrance. The stone walls of the underground space are filled with caves. There are also countless snakes hanging on them, which look extremely scary under the green light, and they don't know where they lead.

Zuo Lingquan hovered in mid-air, his hand left Sister Yingying's shoulder, and he frowned and glanced around:

"Is this the lair of the big snake up there?"

Cui Yingying carefully observed the formation patterns on the platform and shook her head:

"No, this is the place where Xuan Snake practices and reproduces. It is considered an altar. The hole in the wall leads to the monster's lair. The larger snake monsters have all run away, and the remaining ones are ordinary small snakes, even monsters. If you don’t have sex, you only know how to mate…”

Cui Yingying said that her expression was a bit strange and she looked away.

Zuo Lingquan carefully looked at the stone platform and found that tens of thousands of snakes were entangled together, obviously doing something natural in accordance with the laws of heaven.

The secular world is very particular. It is unlucky to see snakes mating. Zuo Lingquan moved his eyes to the surroundings and smelled:

"What does this smell like? It's quite fragrant."

Cui Yingying also smelled it, then her eyes changed, and she raised her hand to cover Zuo Lingquan's mouth and nose:

"Are you seeking death? You dare to smell it even in the Beast Race lair. This is the body fluid secreted by the lustful snake. It is extremely poisonous. Hurry up and stick to the heart lake of Qifu. Don't let the poisonous gas attack your heart and mess up your mind. I don't have time to detoxify you. ."

?

Zuo Lingquan didn't feel the poison. After all, ordinary snakes can survive here, so how could he be poisoned to death.

However, seeing how serious Sister Yingying was, he quickly mobilized the True Qi in his body, suppressed the inexplicable heat in his heart, and asked:

"What should we do with this place?"

"Burned."

Cui Yingying flew to somewhere on the edge of the platform and motioned to the three corpses below:

"This should be the few monks who disappeared in Tuofeng Ridge a few days ago. The snakes here have eaten human flesh. The chances of becoming monsters in the future and being kind to people are slim, leaving endless disasters."

Zuo Lingquan looked at the bottom of the river, and saw three corpses still wearing robes and protective gear. One of them was wearing a Taoist ancestral plaque, but his body had become white bones, with small snakes coming in and out from the seven orifices; the hands and feet of the corpses were nailed to the stone platform The edge was probably thrown here specifically to feed the snakes.

Zuo Lingquan frowned and said nothing more. He raised his hand to make a seal and burned the snake cave with fire.

Cui Yingying's complexion was not normal, and the dark red marks on her hands were a little darker, so she hid it in her sleeves, and did not help, but stood by the side to be vigilant.

boom--

Although Zuo Lingquan is not good at fire techniques, he has already refined his natal fire, and the momentum of his technique is still terrifying. In an instant, the platform has been turned into a sea of ​​flames, and there are bursts of burnt smell.

Following his action, several ferocious auras came from the depths of the hole-ridden cave on the stone wall.

Zuo Lingquan sensed the killing intent and looked towards the cave on the stone wall:

"It seems that there are still monsters underground that haven't escaped."

Cui Yingying glanced at the stone wall and said in a deep voice:

"It's meaningless to kill these little snakes. There are still snake demons hiding in their lairs. If you want to kill them, you have to kill them all. Go find them."

Cui Yingying followed the direction of the breath to find the traces of the monster, but when she moved her body, even if she tried her best to maintain a natural appearance, her movements still appeared a little stiff.

Zuo Lingquan was not injured. Seeing this, she was a little startled. She quickly came to her and took Cui Yingying's hand to check, but she saw that her body was icy cold, and a chill raged through her meridians, causing a thin layer of skin to form on the surface of her skin. Frost.

Cui Yingying quickly put away her hands, frowned and said, "I've already told you I'm fine...kill the little demon first."

Zuo Lingquan felt that Sister Yingying was holding her up in front of him, and the snake venom of Yujie Great Monster, even with her ass, she knew that it was not something that could be solved by hand.

Seeing that Sister Yingying seemed unable to suppress the snake's venom, Zuo Lingquan didn't have the heart to chase after the little demon, so he quickly picked her up and flew to the ground.

"What are you doing holding me? I'm really fine."

Cui Yingying broke away from her arms, pretending that "everything is under my control", and wanted to continue chasing the monster, but Zuo Lingquan disobeyed, and forcefully hugged her and quickly came to the surface.

At this time above the surface, Jingxun washed the entire mountain with flames, the snake body of the Xuanyin Snake Ancestor's Baizhang snake was roasted with fragrance, Shangguan Baxue and others had been forced to dozens of miles by the fire and snake venom Outside.

Tuanzi is helping Jingxun set fire to the mountain, while Qiutao is standing on the ground, sensing the situation underground.

The two of them broke out of the ground, and Xie Qiutao ran over quickly and found that Sister Yingying's face was frosty. No, there was indeed a thin layer of frost on her cheeks. The cold was so cold that it was difficult to get close. Her expression changed:

"Sister Yingying, are you poisoned?"

"It's just a small poison, it's harmless."

"Is this still young?"

On the other side, the dumpling who was grilling the big snake, saw that nurse Yingying was almost frozen into a popsicle, so he flew over quickly, landed in Cui Yingying's arms, and warmed her hands.

Zuo Lingquan didn't know about Sister Yingying's injury, so she didn't dare to be careless, and flew to Jingxun's side:

"Jingxun, can the ancestor come over now?"

Although the distance was relatively far, Cui Yingying still heard clearly, and was about to say: "Don't call her, I said I'm fine."

But before he could speak, Jing Xun, who was fanning the flames, had already responded:

"The dead woman said that sister Yingying is fine, don't worry."

"Oh, all right……"

What?

How can I be fine?

Didn't you see that I was frozen like this?

Cui Yingying was very angry at this remark, and what was even more annoyed was that Zuo Lingquan was relieved after hearing what Shangguan Patriarch said!

Outsiders say I'm fine, so you think I'm really fine?

Are you such a man?

But it was difficult to say these words. Cui Yingying stood there feeling a little aggrieved.

Fortunately, the Shangguan Patriarch was just angry at his best friend who was trying to show off, so there was no way he could really ignore her.

Tang Jingxun negotiated a few words in his mind and then continued:

"My mother-in-law asked you and Qiu Tao to go underground first to clear out the weeds, and I will take care of Sister Yingying."

With the ancestor here, Zuo Lingquan was not worried about the safety of Jingxun and Yingying, so he nodded immediately, took out a lot of pills prepared in Linglong Pavilion, put them in Jingxun's arms, and reunited with Qiutao. Sneak into the snake cave.

Cui Yingying originally wanted to follow, but the cold poison raging in her body really needed time to resolve, so she didn't try to be brave and just reminded:

"Zuo Lingquan, the depth of the ground is still unknown. Remember not to pursue it too deep. No one can protect you without me."

"Understood, I have always acted steadily."

"Sister Yingying, don't worry. If Young Master Zuo is not steady, I will help him stay steady."

"Um?"

…

Cui Yingying didn't believe Zuo Lingquan at all, but she was quite at ease with Qiutao, who was "running away first", so she didn't give any more advice, and just threw the dumpling in her arms, who was almost frozen to death.

When the two of them disappeared from the surface, Cui Yingying's calm expression immediately dissipated, revealing a bit of fatigue, and her body swayed twice.

Tang Jingxuan ran over with a bunch of pills in his arms and supported Sister Yingying's body with one hand. He found that her soft and boneless waist was almost frozen, and said nervously:

"Sister Yingying, you..."

"Don't worry, I just need to take a rest."

Cui Yingying was still able to maintain her popularity in front of Zuo Lingquan, but she lost her motivation once Zuo Lingquan left.

She summoned the suspended attic and placed it on the scorched earth of the mountains. She walked slowly into the door, but her pace became slower and slower. When she reached the bedroom on the third floor, she stopped and closed her eyes.

Tang Jingxun was not a doctor, so he was naturally anxious when he saw this scene. He carried Sister Yingying, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, into the bedroom and asked in her heart:

"Damn mother-in-law, do you care about this? Sister Yingying is so frozen, why don't you come over and treat her injuries?"

Shangguan Patriarch responded flatly: "She just likes to suffer for her face, and she may not ask me to help when she comes here. Besides, it's just a little bit of snake venom, she can bear it, and nothing will happen."

Jingxun laid the frozen sister Yingying flat on the bed and covered her with a quilt:

"Then how should I take care of you? You can't just watch, right?"

"The black snake is extremely yin and cold, and those who are poisoned will damage the essence, energy, and blood; your physique is different from ordinary people, and you are just as strong as the yang, just hug her to warm her body, and then give her some pills to replenish qi and strengthen your vitality. It won’t be long before things get back to normal.”

Jingxun heard the words and obeyed, lying on the bed and holding the round and round sister Yingying in her arms. The cold feeling made her shrink her neck.

Jingxun glanced at Sister Yingying, who was very close at hand, and saw that her frown relaxed slightly, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking about it, she muttered in her heart:

"This should be done by Xiao Zuo. It feels weird to be held by two women."

"He thinks beautifully."

"Um?"

"I'm saying that his five elements are close to water, and his body is Yin. If you hold him, it will only make him colder, so he won't be able to do this."

"oh……"

Jingxun nodded dubiously. Healing the injury was important. He didn't think too much about this kind of thing. He took out a lot of pills and placed them beside the bed, and asked:

"What pill should I take now? I'm afraid the Body Healing Pill is useless..."

Jing Xun has been walking on the path of practice for so long, and she can recognize ordinary pills and know how to use them, but Lord Peach Blossom's realm is too high, and most of the pills are "jelly beans" after eating, which have little effect, so I don't know how to use them. What.

Shangguan Patriarch was silent for a moment, probably looking through Jing Xun's eyes, and then said:

"Guanyuan Dan is fine, but there are also Yang-Returning Pills, Sheng-Yuan Pills, etc. As long as they have the word 'Yuan, Yang', they are all elixirs that nourish essence and solidify Yuan."

"oh……"

Tang Jingxun rummaged through a pile of pill boxes and asked again:

"How much do you have to eat?"

"She has a strong body and is very energetic. She feeds as much as she can."

"Yeah……"

Tang Jingxuan nodded slightly, picked out the elixir, and fed it into Lord Peach Blossom's mouth. After feeding two pills, she picked up a beautifully decorated pill box and looked at it carefully:

"Longyang Pill...can this thing be eaten?"

"Well...you can feed it to her if you want."

"What do you mean I want to feed her? I'm asking for your idea. Do you dare to feed her randomly if you don't let her eat?"

"Practitioners should have their own opinions and everything should be decided by me. Then if you and Lingye get jealous, I will tell you to step back. Will you listen?"

"..."

Tang Jingxun was too lazy to talk to the mother-in-law anymore. She couldn't eat it anyway, and the mother-in-law would definitely not let her feed her randomly. After thinking about it, she opened the pill box...

——

At the same time, underground.

The raging fire swept through the snake cave, turning the huge platform into a purgatory. The entrenched poisonous snakes had long been turned into fly ash, and even the surrounding waterways were dried, exposing the scales and white bones of the snakes at the bottom of the water.

Xie Qiutao carried the iron pipa on his back and fell into the underground space with Tuanzi. Zuo Lingquan walked in front, alert to the surroundings.

There was thick smoke billowing in the underground space, but the smell was not pungent, but instead carried the aroma of roasted snakes. Tuanzi had been hungry for the roasted snakes just now. At this time, his mother was not in front of him, so he became bolder and wanted to fly down to find a few of them. Use unburnt snakes to fill your stomach.

Unfortunately, Zuo Lingquan immediately hugged Tuanzi back, shook his head and said:

"These snakes have eaten human flesh, so they are unclean and cannot be eaten."

"grumble?"

Tuanzi is a bit innocent, spreading his little wings, which means - if you can't eat big crabs, big snakes, and small snakes, then aren't the birds here in vain?

Zuo Lingquan took out a small dried fish and gave it to Tuanzi to satisfy his hunger. He was about to sense the surrounding caves when he suddenly heard Qiutao next to him saying:

"It smells so good. No wonder the dumplings are so greedy."

The strange fragrance in the snake cave comes from the river surrounding the platform. At this time, the river is evaporated to dryness, and the fragrance even overpowers the burnt smell.

Just when Zuo Lingquan was about to smell it, he remembered Lord Peach Blossom’s reminder and quickly covered Qiu Tao’s mouth and nose:

"Don't smell it, it's highly poisonous."

"Woo——"

Xie Qiutao was slightly startled when her mouth was covered by a big hand, and she quickly turned away, her face slightly red:

"Where ordinary snakes and rats can survive, how can they be poisonous? Mr. Zuo, please don't scare people."

Zuo Lingquan thought the same way, but after Sister Yingying warned him, he still erred on the side of caution. After signaling Qiu Tao to stop sniffing, they began to investigate the cave riddled with holes on the stone wall.

The cave entrances vary in size. The small ones are only as thick as a finger, and the large ones are dozens of feet in diameter. Judging from the scratches on the stone walls inside the cave, snakes should often come in and out of these holes.

Zuo Lingquan sensed carefully that the several Monster Qi that appeared when the snake cave was burned down have disappeared. It is not easy to find the snake monster hidden deep underground.

Xie Qiutao's range of perception was similar to that of Zuo Lingquan. There were traces of monsters everywhere, but he had no clue to pursue them. She thought for a while and looked at Danzi who was still looking back at the roasted snake:

"Tuan'er, where is the snake demon? Take us there."

Tuanzi opened his beak as a sign of reward. After the dried fish reached his mouth, he carefully observed the stone cave surrounding the snake cave, "chichichichi..." and gestured with his wings.

Zuo Lingquan observed it, and he probably said that there were many monsters in the snake cave, and he wanted to find a big one.

Judging from the size of the cave, there are countless monsters hidden in the snake cave, but there are not many larger ones in the snake cave.

Zuo Lingquan came over to eradicate the weeds. Naturally, he had to do his best to kill them all. After a little consideration, he said:

"Kill the biggest ones first. Leaving out some small fish and shrimps won't have any impact."

"grumble."

After Tuanzi received the order, he began to search for the largest snake demon in the surrounding area!

The results came out quickly, and Tuanzi pointed his wings towards a hole in the northwest.

Xie Qiutao turned around and looked around. The entrance of the cave was about one person high. The inside was quite clean. It seemed that no monsters had moved around in many years. She said doubtfully:

"Is there a Great Monster hiding in here?"

"grumble."

Tuanzi nodded like he was pecking at rice, and walked inside with the two of them.

After Zuo Lingquan and Xie Qiutao looked at each other, out of trust in Tuanzi's perception, they walked into the cave together...
