With the seven-color divine pearl, I dominate the three realms!

Seeing Yan Gai fainted, Qingzhu hurried over to help Yan Gai up.

She put Yan Gae on her back and walked towards the dry tree ridge with great difficulty.

When we arrived at Kushu Ridge, it was almost dusk.

She performed Yan Gao and lay down next to a piece of ebony stone. Wiping away the fragrant sweat, I kept panting.

After resting for a while, Qingzhu stood up and looked around. When he saw bright red peaches in the forest in front of him, he got up and walked to pick a few.

Yan Ji woke up. He couldn't see with his eyes and could only fumble around with his hands.

Qingzhu came over holding the peach tree.

Seeing Yan Gai wake up, he shouted happily: "You're awake!"

Yan Ji was stunned. "You didn't leave?"

Qingzhu pouted and said, "What will you do if I leave? Your eyes became like this because you were trying to save me. I can't leave you."

Yan Gai paused, "Where is this?"

"This is Dead Tree Ridge! We have left the swamp."

Qingzhu came over to help Yan Gai and said.

Yan Gai leaned against the stone and touched Wang Jian beside him.

"I'm blind. Following me will only drag you down. You'd better go on your own."

Qingzhu said a little aggrievedly: "I won't leave, I still have to go find the Purple God Pearl with you!"

Yan Gai shook his head and said in a sad tone: "I am blind now, how can I find the Purple God Pearl?"

Qingzhu said: "It doesn't matter, you still have me! I can be your eyes."

Yan Ji shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Are you hungry? I have freshly picked peaches here!"

After Qingzhu finished speaking, without waiting for Yan Gai's response, he stuffed the tree peach into Yan Gai's hand.

When Qingzhu asked this question, Yan Gai felt that he was really hungry. Secretly said:

"Strange! I didn't eat or drink for three days and I didn't feel hungry or thirsty. Why do I feel thirsty now?"

Yan Gai took a bite of the peach and immediately felt the crunch, sweetness and moistness in his mouth. He couldn't help but eat a few more.

After eating peaches, my spirit became much more refreshing and my body regained its strength.

Qingzhu said: "It's getting dark. You can sleep here tonight!"

Yan Gai heard what she said was strange and asked:

"how about you?"

Qingzhu smiled. "I won't sleep, I'll stay by your side."

Yan Gae asked doubtfully: "Is it dangerous here?"

Qingzhu blinked and said, "It's not dangerous! Kushu Ridge is the safest place."

Yan Ji asked strangely: "Then why do you want to keep me awake?"

Qingzhu lowered his head silently and sighed.

"Since I was cast under the curse, my sleepiness has also disappeared."

"So that's it!"

"Well, go to sleep! I'm going to find some firewood to make a fire. It will be very cold here at night."

Yan Ji nodded and fell asleep leaning on the stone.

Seeing that he was sleeping, Qingzhu got up and went to find some dry firewood nearby, piled it next to Yan Gao, and lit the fire with saltpeter.

After a while, the fire grew stronger and stronger. By then it was completely dark, and the surroundings were dark and silent.

Qingzhu sat next to Yan Gai, looking at Yan Gai's face, thinking about being in the swamp during the day.

When Yan Gai was blinded by scorpion poison in order to save himself, his jade face couldn't help showing affection.

At this time, Yan Gai's Wang Jian, which was lying on the ground, suddenly trembled.

Qingzhu was very surprised and picked up the sword to see the reason.

Whoosh! !

Suddenly, Wang's sword quickly moved and hit a tree nearby.

"what happened?"

Yan Gao woke up with a start.

"Your sword!" Qingzhu said in panic,

"What's wrong with my sword?" Yan Gai said and touched Wang Jian beside him.

Qingzhu said in surprise: "Your sword suddenly flew away by itself and was nailed to the tree."

Yan Gai stood up and asked, "Where is it?"

Qingzhu held Yan Gai and said, "It's on the tree in front."

The two came to the tree, and Yan Ge fumbled to pull out the sword.

Qingzhu asked suspiciously: "Why is your sword like this?"

Yan Gai gently stroked the back of the sword and replied:

"This sword is the sword of the king of our Phantom Tribe. It has been passed down from my ancestors. Over the past thousands of years, this sword has gradually acquired spiritual energy. Whenever he senses that someone from the Phantom Tribe is nearby, It will give out such signs.”

Qingzhu asked in shock: "Could it be that there are members of your tribe on the Withered Tree Ridge?"

Yan Ji nodded, "I just don't know where he is in Kushu Ridge."

Qingzhu asked: "What are your people doing here?"

Yan Ji shook his head, then raised his head and dozed off.

Qingzhu pursed her lips, glanced down at her deer legs, and couldn't help but sigh silently in her heart.

Yan Gai leaned his sword on the stone, then lay down and fell asleep.

The long night was miserable, and Qingzhu was bored sitting by the fire alone.

In the early morning, from a treetop in Lingfeng, there was a burst of sweet birdsong.

Yan Gai sat up from the ground. Qing Zhu saw him waking up and hurriedly came over to help him up.

He smiled and said, "You slept so soundly! You didn't even wake up when I called you last night!"

Yan Gai was a little embarrassed and said, "Is there something wrong with you?"

"Oh! It's okay." Qingzhu said shyly.

Yan Gai picked up Wang Jian, and the two of them started walking towards Dry Tree Ridge.

After passing through the stone road on the ridge and passing through a green bamboo forest, Qingzhu supported Yan Gai and walked slowly up the ridge.

Further up is the peak of Kushu Ridge.

"Look, the elephant tree is still there!"

Qingzhu pointed at the elephant tree on the ridge and shouted happily.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she remembered that Yan Gai's eyes were no longer visible.

Qingzhu felt a little guilty. "I'm sorry! I forgot your eye was hurt."

Yan Gae didn't pay attention, "Let's go quickly. We'll rest for a while when we get to the mountain."

Qingzhu blinked. "Um!"

The two of them walked forward for a while and came to the dead elephant tree.

I saw a towering elephant tree growing there like a giant tower.

The tree-like tree body is several feet thick in diameter. Bare branches spread out in all directions.

The two walked to the elephant tree and found a coiled root to sit down and rest.

Qingzhu looked at the elephant tree and said to himself:

"After all these years, it's still the same as before."

When Yan Ji heard what she said, he couldn't help but asked suspiciously: "Have you been here before?"

Qingzhu's expression suddenly became sad. She stroked the tree and said sadly:

"Thirteen years ago, my mother and I came here! At that time, my mother told me that this elephant tree used to be lush and full of life, but it was only later that a spell was cast on it and it became what it is now."

"Who wants to cast a spell on an elephant tree?" Yan Gai was very puzzled.

Qingzhu didn't speak, but looked at the elephant tree with tearful eyes.

call! !

Suddenly a dark shadow flashed from the other side of the elephant tree.

"Who?" Qingzhu asked in surprise.

Yan Ji frowned and asked suspiciously: "Is there anyone?"

"I saw a dark shadow that disappeared behind the elephant tree." After Qingzhu finished speaking, he went to check behind the tree.

"Dark Shadow?"

Yan Gai looked suspicious. Just as he finished speaking, Qingzhu saw an old man in black robes walking out from behind the elephant tree.

"who are you?"

Qingzhu stared at the old man with vigilance in his eyes.

The old man in black robe had no expression on his face. He first looked at Qingzhu's pair of deer legs, and then turned to look at Yan Gai's eyes.

When the black-robed old man's eyes fell on Wang Jian, the expression on his face suddenly became shocked.
