In a daze, Xiao Chen finally woke up after not knowing how long it took. He tried his best to open his eyes, and Xiao Chen found himself lying on a wooden bed.
After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Xiao Chen found that he was in a wooden house. The sunlight was shining in from the outside, making the wooden house extremely warm.
There is a table not far from the wooden bed. There is a bunch of roses on the table. Next to it is a table of home-cooked dishes. They are all vegetarian dishes, but the fragrance is so fragrant that people are full of expectations for the taste of this dish.
What is this place and why am I here
Xiao Chen thought doubtfully, remembering that he was seriously injured after using Qinglong to go to sea that day. He fainted after getting the red jade pendant. How could he be here
Someone saved me, or I was caught.
No matter, let’s get up first. Xiao Chen opened the quilt and found that his whole body was wrapped in white bandages. A faint smell of medicine came from the bandages. Xiao Chen felt bursts of itching on his skin. He could see his injuries. It's almost good to come.
After getting up, Xiao Chen entered the cultivation state with difficulty, his mind went down, and he slowly operated the Purple Thunder Art. To Xiao Chen's surprise, something unexpected happened. The meridians in his body that should have been severely damaged were almost recovered.
This should be the effect of taking a good healing elixir. It seems that the person who put the bandage on himself also wasted one elixir.
Xiao Chen came out of the cultivation state and took off the bandages layer by layer. His face slowly turned red. His private parts were actually wrapped with several layers of bandages. If the person wearing the bandages was a man, Xiao Chen even thought about it. I have the desire to die.
After removing all the bandages, revealing the pale skin inside, Xiao Chen slowly relaxed. The medicine wrapped in this bandage should be very good. It didn't leave any scars, so he didn't have to worry about being disfigured.
There was a brand new set of men's clothes on the bedside. Xiao Chen was relieved that this man had even prepared his clothes. After getting dressed, Xiao Chen couldn't wait to throw himself at the food on the table.
Although Bigu Pill can make people stop eating, Xiao Chen's mouth has become pale after not eating for a long time. When he saw the table full of delicious food, Xiao Chen couldn't stand it immediately.
Judging from the current situation, he was definitely saved. If he was caught, the enemy would never give him such a good elixir, and even thoughtfully bring him a set of clothes to change into.
Like the wind and the remaining clouds, Xiao Chen quickly wiped out the food on the table. These side dishes were not considered delicacies, but Xiao Chen felt that they were more delicious than delicacies from the mountains and seas.
"Hey, cousin, you're awake." The door of the wooden house was gently pushed open, and there was a sound of surprise.
Xiao Chen, whose mouth was full of food and was extremely ugly, was startled when he saw Xiao Yulan who suddenly appeared outside the door. He accidentally choked on the food and kept coughing.
"Cousin Yulan, you... why do you care?" Xiao Chen, who took a long time to catch his breath, asked vaguely.
Seeing Xiao Chen acting like this, Xiao Yu burst into laughter, her beautiful face blooming like a flower, and she laughed softly: "Cousin, please eat slowly first. If it's not enough, I'll make it for you."
After hearing this, Xiao Chen finally understood that it was cousin Yulan who saved him. He wiped his mouth without moving the chopsticks. When Xiao Yulan saw that he was so popular, how could Xiao Chen dare to continue eating? .
Suddenly thinking of the bandages on his private parts, Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yulan and asked as if nothing had happened: "Cousin Yulan, you helped me wrap the bandages on my body."
Xiao Yulan nodded without any suspicion and said: "I just came back from the inner area of the mountain range that day. I rushed over when I heard the explosion, and then I saw you lying on the ground, seriously injured. ”
As if she suddenly remembered something, Xiao Yulan's face turned red and she said, "We who practice martial arts don't have to stick to small details, we just need to be open-minded mentally and physically."
Just be open-minded both physically and mentally. Cousin Yulan, you are so open-minded. Xiao Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, "By the way, cousin, I was in a coma for a few days."
"It's been two days. The third elder came to see you yesterday. Seeing that your meridians were injured, he gave you a Biyun Pill. Otherwise, your internal injuries would not have healed so quickly." Xiao Yulan said quickly He said, while telling Xiao Chen the details of the third elder's arrival.
The third elder, Xiao Tian, is in charge of all the affairs in Qijiao Mountain of the Xiao family. It is not surprising that they know about such a big thing happening in the forest.
What surprised Xiao Chen was that Xiao Tian was willing to give him the Biyun Pill to heal his injuries. This Biyun Pill is the most effective healing elixir among the fourth-grade elixirs. There is no alchemist in the entire Qizi County who can refine it. It can save someone's life when necessary and is worth thousands of gold.
I have to find an opportunity to return this favor. Next time I refine a similar elixir, I can send him a bottle, Xiao Chen thought to himself.
Xiao Yulan took out a red jade pendant from her arms and said with some confusion: "Cousin Xiao Chen, where did you get this soul blood jade."
Soul Blood Jade, it turned out that this red jade pendant was called this name. After making a decision in his mind, Xiao Chen told Xiao Yulan what happened that day, half truth and half lie.
Except for hiding the heaven-level martial arts skill Subduing the Dragon, there was no difference. He only said that he spent a lot of effort to die together with Tang He, and that he got this red jade pendant from him.
When Xiao Yulan heard that the jade pendant was obtained from Tang He, her face changed slightly and she said, "I thought yesterday that this jade pendant belonged to your cousin Xiao Chen, so I didn't tell the third elder. Now it seems that this matter is of great importance. , you have to tell the third elder quickly."
It's just a jade pendant, is it so important
Xiao Chen was even more confused. He suddenly remembered that when he used his spiritual consciousness to eavesdrop, he seemed to have heard Tang He talking about plans, so he asked: "What is the use of this soul blood jade?"
Xiao Yulan did not hide anything and explained the origin and function of the Soul Blood Jade to Xiao Chen.
When it comes to soul blood jade, we must first start with taming beasts. Having a powerful spiritual beast will be a great advantage in battle, so warriors on the mainland have never given up on taming spiritual beasts.
The original warriors tamed spirit beasts in the same way as ordinary animals. They captured young spirit beasts and cultivated them when they were very young. Through feeding and training, they established a master-slave relationship to achieve the purpose of domestication.
But spirit beasts are different from ordinary animals after all. They possess extremely high intelligence. This kind of method cannot successfully tame spirit beasts beyond the fourth level.
The loyalty of spirit beasts above level 4 cannot be guaranteed, and spirit beasts often eat their masters during battles.
Moreover, this method of domestication requires an extremely long time, ranging from a few years to decades. Moreover, a spiritual beast can only serve one person and cannot be transferred.
This situation was not completely reversed until a genius emerged: Mao Yan'an, who founded the Crossbow Sect.
When Mao Yanan traveled to the mainland, he discovered a magical jade stone. After polishing it, spiritual beasts could be collected into the jade stone, allowing the person holding the jade stone to establish a blood contract with the spiritual beast.
As he further researched, he discovered more secrets in the jade, and developed various secret methods that allowed one jade to control dozens of spiritual beasts at the same time, and these spiritual beasts were not classified into different levels.
Just imagine how terrifying a person who controls a dozen high-level spiritual beasts would be in combat. So when he established the Crossbow Beast Sect, he immediately became the largest force in the Tang Dynasty.
The secret of the Soul Blood Jade was only known to the public at this time. However, only the Tang Dynasty on the Tianwu Continent produced the Soul Blood Jade. Almost all of the Soul Blood Jade was controlled by the Crossbow Beast Sect, and very few of it spread to other places. .
The piece of soul blood jade in Xiao Chen's hand can be said to be rare in Da Qin, and its value is much higher than that of the moon stone.
"What my cousin means is that the Tang family is going to use this marriage soul blood jade to tame spiritual beasts above level four." After understanding the joints, Xiao Chen asked, but this is not a big deal.
Xiao Yulan saw the doubts in Xiao Chen's heart and said: "This matter is not as simple as you think. According to the agreement of the three major families, the spiritual grass and spiritual beasts in the Seven Horns Mountains cannot be used by other forces except the Xiao family." and individuals can hunt on a small scale.”
"But the agreement also stipulates that spirit beasts above level four cannot be taken out of the Qijiao Mountains, regardless of life or death. This is the bottom line of our Xiao family and the largest income of the Qijiao Mountains. Now that the Tang family has violated The plan behind the agreement is already obvious.”
Breaking the agreement means that in this Qijiao Mountains, our Tang family no longer takes your Xiao family seriously and we can do whatever we want. This is a very serious matter.
Once it starts and is not handled well, if word spreads, the Xiao family's authority in Qijiao Mountain will be greatly challenged. But why do the Tang family dare to do this? Their strength is far inferior to that of the Xiao family, and they have always kept a low profile. Who is supporting them behind the scenes
At this moment, a dangerous breath came from the distance. Xiao Chen quickly released his consciousness. He had always been very confident in his own feelings.
His spiritual consciousness was released, and Xiao Chen unexpectedly discovered that the detection distance of this spiritual consciousness could reach 800 meters before he knew it. However, Xiao Chen frowned before he could be surprised.
In the consciousness, a group of black-clothed men holding heavy crossbows were rushing towards this side at high speed. All of these people were at the level of top-grade martial arts masters, and the leader was at the realm of great martial arts masters.
Judging from the speed, it would take less than a minute to catch up, and judging from the style of the heavy crossbows in their hands, it is obviously not ordinary goods, and it is likely to be the work of Tiangong Villa.
Withdrawing his consciousness, Xiao Chen hurriedly said: "There is a group of people in the martial arts realm coming towards us from the east. They will arrive in less than a minute."
"Let's go then." The expression on Xiao Yulan's face changed. Without asking how Xiao Chen knew it, she took Xiao Chen's hand and immediately jumped out of the window.
As soon as the two people jumped out, there were buzzing sounds in the air, and countless arrows were shot into the wooden house. The arrows were extremely powerful, and countless holes soon appeared in the wooden house.
The man in black still did not stop shooting. After a moment, the wooden house collapsed with a crash. Xiao Yulan looked back and saw the wooden house where she had lived for several years, and her eyes became extremely cold.
