"Does it matter?" Nan Feng asked with concern.
Yuan Anning shook his head and handed the tortoise shell to Nanfeng, then withdrew his hand and wiped the black spots with a handkerchief.
Nan Feng was not at ease and brought a water bag over, "Wash it quickly."
"It seems that the bone-transforming water cannot be touched by water." Yuan Anning said not sure.
Nanfeng was about to speak, but at a glance, he discovered that the bone-transforming water flowing out of the hourglass was flowing into the distance, and the five-clawed golden dragon was languishing on the ground, and he didn't even notice it.
Seeing that the bone-melting water was about to impregnate the five-clawed golden dragon, Nanfeng hurriedly stepped over and pushed the five-clawed golden dragon aside with his feet.
The five-clawed golden dragon was very weak. After it was tilted, its belly was facing upwards. Its claws were unable to bend or extend, and it wanted to turn around.
"What a danger. If it weren't for you, this tortoise shell would have been destroyed." Nanfeng took a few steps forward and sat down on the stone mass. Because I was too nervous before, I even felt exhausted after relaxing.
"I'm here to help you. If you can get the Book of Heaven, you are very lucky." Yuan Anning raised his hand to wipe the sweat.
There is a word called frightened. This is how the two of them felt at this time. Although they were happy to get the tortoise shell book, they were more afraid. If the two of them had not handled it well, they were in a hurry and snatched the tortoise shell at the last moment. This is the most important thing. A piece of tortoise shell may have been destroyed by the bone-melting water.
After regaining consciousness, Nanfeng lowered his head and looked at the tortoise shell in his hand. This tortoise shell and the other eight pieces should have been the complete carapace of a turtle. The piece in his hand was the center, and the other eight pieces were all edges. Judging from the size of the tortoise shell and the number of ancient characters on it, this tortoise shell is much more important than the other eight.
After a brief look, Nanfeng held the tortoise shell in his hand and said to Yuan Anning, "This tortoise shell is the result of the combined efforts of you and me..."
Before Nanfeng could finish speaking, Yuan Anning shook his head and interrupted him, "I understand what you mean, don't say any more."
Nanfeng still wanted to speak, but Yuan Anning pointed at the five-clawed golden dragon in the corner, "Don't forget it either."
Nanfeng frowned and looked at the five-clawed golden dragon. At this time, the five-clawed golden dragon had turned over and was looking up at the two of them. It was already seriously injured, and the previous breath of strange fire aggravated the injury. It became more and more sluggish and dying.
"I still have a few pills here, I don't know if they are suitable for use." Yuan Anning took out a few pills from her arms. These pills were originally placed in porcelain bottles, but later she freed up the porcelain bottles to contain the pills. Talisman paper with ancient characters written on it.
Nanfeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yuan Anning, but did not answer her words or take the elixir in her hand.
"These wound medicines are not as good as those that Miss Zhuge gave you, but they can also build muscle and stop bleeding." Yuan Anning added.
Nanfeng still didn't answer, but stood up straight and walked over to collect the wooden tablets, seals and other items.
Although the five-clawed golden dragon was seriously injured and on the verge of death, it was not confused. It seemed that it knew that Nanfeng was the master of the two, so it kept staring at him. Wherever Nanfeng went, its gaze followed.
Nanfeng could not see the look of help in the eyes of the golden dragon. This golden dragon was very understanding of human nature. After being injured, he knew how to ask for help. In order to get help from the two of them, he also knew how to do everything he could to help them. If there was no golden dragon breathing strange fire , the enshrinement book that was sent to Da Tian Ting could not be burned in time. The two of them were able to successfully obtain the tortoise shell, and the golden dragon was indispensable.
Not to mention that the golden dragon really helped them, but what the golden dragon did was of little use. Just because it knew how to do things with others and get help from others, it should come to their rescue.
If there were no other reasons, he would naturally do his best to save the golden dragon, but the matter was so involved that he wanted to save it but couldn't.
The shape of the golden dragon at this time is naturally the result of its transformation. Its body should be very huge. The injuries on its body were naturally left by Gao Pingsheng. Gao Pingsheng obeyed Huang Qishan, and Huang Qishan obeyed Taiyin Yuanjun. It can be said that Gao Pingsheng was looking for and Killing the five-clawed golden dragon is Taiyin Yuanjun, which means big eyes. In order to kill the golden dragon, Gao Pingsheng did not hesitate to blow himself up. If he saved the golden dragon this time, wouldn't he go against the wishes of big eyes
If it is an ordinary and trivial matter, it doesn't matter if you sing the opposite tune, but this matter is of great importance. The five-clawed golden dragon secretly responds to the emperor and dominates the world. If you save its life, I am afraid it will have a huge impact on what Big Eyes and others do. impact and damage.
Nanfeng's hesitation could not escape Yuan Anning's eyes, and he asked softly in confusion, "Why don't you help?"
"Do you know what kind of existence the five-clawed golden dragon is?" Nanfeng asked.
Yuan Anning nodded. The legend about the five-clawed golden dragon has been around for a long time. It is known to all women and children. Even children who have never been crowned know that the five-clawed golden dragon is the emperor of the world.
"The injuries on its body were caused by a Taoist who self-destructed while discharging his kung fu. That Taoist acted under orders, and his master has an extraordinary relationship with me. If I had saved it, that Taoist would have died in vain, and would have given me the Friends add many obstacles." Nanfeng did not hide the truth from Yuan Anning.
Yuan Anning was surprised when he heard this, "Why did they hurt it?"
Nanfeng shook his head. Ever since he was separated from Big Eyes and others in Chang'an, he had never seen Big Eyes again. Now Huang Qishan, who had a close relationship with him, has died. Where is Big Eyes now? What is his situation? Nothing is known, and the reason why Big Eyes and others killed the five-clawed golden dragon is even more unknown.
Yuan Anning said nothing. Although she believed that Jinlong should be rescued, she would not make her own decision. The matter was of great importance. The decision to save or not to save rested with Nanfeng.
Deep down in his heart, Nanfeng also wanted to help, but he didn't dare to help. The reason was very simple. He didn't know what the consequences would be if the five-clawed golden dragon survived. The big eyes were the reincarnation of Taiyin Yuanjun, who was the Great Luo Jinxian. What she did was naturally just. She must have her reasons for killing the five-clawed golden dragon. The most likely possibility is that the emperor who ordered the five-clawed golden dragon will be detrimental to the country and the country. If she saves it at this time, it will be equivalent to helping the emperor. .
Lest he become weak-minded, Nanfeng did not look at the golden dragon, but walked to the left to inspect the things there.
There are many bamboo slips placed on the bookshelf of the stone niche. Since it is dry here, there is no wind and no insects, most of the bamboo slips are well preserved. I picked up a volume casually. The writing on it was inscriptions on a tripod, which I couldn't understand.
The Taoist's sleeping place was in the southwest corner of the cave. It was a small stone bed with a stone pillow, no bedding, and no change of clothes.
There is a stone niche on the stone wall in the area where the stone bed is located. There are two objects in it, an oblate Tai Chi Bagua incense burner. The incense burner is no bigger than the palm of your hand. It has three legs at the bottom and a copper cover on top. There is a hollow Tai Chi incense burner on the copper cover. Bagua graphic, this object is not used for daily incense, but an incense vessel.
The other object must be a weapon. This is a weapon he has never seen before. He is not even sure whether it is a weapon because the shape of the object is too strange. It is similar in thickness to the copper rods used by warriors, but it is It is much shorter than a copper rod, less than a foot. If it were not for the two inconspicuous ring-shaped protrusions on one end, it would be somewhat similar to a rolling pin.
This object is completely black, and the three-inch area with annular protrusions should be the handle. Except for this three-inch area, other parts are densely covered with scales. The scales are numerous and dense, and are several times smaller than the snake scales covering the snake's body. .
He reached out to take it and found that it was unusually heavy. The object was black and so heavy. It was an unusual piece of copper and iron. He immediately thought of the dark iron hammer used by the fat man. The color of this short stick was very similar to that of the dark iron hammer. Similar, most likely the same metal.
Ordinary sticks are mostly long weapons, the most common ones are as tall as a person, and the ones as long as ten feet are not uncommon. The shortest stick is a short stick that reaches the eyebrows. This stick is really too short, less than a foot, and the judge's pen is not even long. So long.
Doubtful and curious, I took it in my hand and shook it. When I shook it, it turned crooked.
After being surprised, I looked closely and saw that the short stick, which was originally less than a foot long, was several inches longer, but a little thinner.
Out of curiosity, I shook it again, but it didn't grow anymore. It was only one foot or two inches, and it was soft and floppy, like a big loach.
"Look, what is this?" Nanfeng found it interesting and turned around to show Yuan Anning.
Yuan Anning was sitting on the last step. He turned his head when he heard the sound, "Bring it to me and take a closer look."
Nanfeng walked over and handed the short stick to Yuan Anning, "Why are you so sweaty?"
Yuan Anning didn't answer. He took the short stick and looked at it carefully. After a while, he said, "There are living joints in this thing. It must be able to expand and contract at will."
"Is it a soft whip?" Nanfeng asked.
"It looks like it, but it's not." Yuan Anning shook his head and bent his hands to take a closer look. "I have never seen this kind of black gold before. If ordinary metal was struck so thin, it would have been broken long ago and would not be able to bear weight at all. .”
"This thing should have a mechanism, please help me look for it." Nanfeng said, Yuan Anning has studied Gongshu Yaoshu. Gongshu Yaoshu is a masterpiece of all creation in the world. From her point of view, it can save a lot of time.
While Yuan Anning was looking at it carefully, Nanfeng looked at the five-clawed golden dragon in the corner. The golden dragon was getting weaker and weaker, already lying on the ground. Seeing Nanfeng looking at it, he managed to raise his head and looked at Nanfeng again.
Nan Feng was afraid that he would be soft-hearted and did not dare to look at it, so he quickly looked away.
"This thing is flexible in terms of length, softness and hardness," Yuan Anning handed the short stick back to Nanfeng. "The length of the stick is determined by the strength of holding it. Would you like to give it a try?"
Nanfeng stretched out his hand to take it, stretched his right arm forward, and exerted force with his five fingers. The short stick suddenly grew two feet long. This time it was no longer soft and swaying, but straight and straight.
"Interesting." Nanfeng was curious and struggled to hold it again. The short stick was three feet longer and slightly thinner.
"A straight force is strong, a curved force is soft." Yuan Anning reminded again.
When Nanfeng heard this, he bent and swayed with both hands. He didn't know which moment he responded to the force. The six-foot long stick suddenly softened and lengthened again, already reaching a length of ten feet.
The cave is narrow and you are not allowed to try it as you like, so Nanfeng did not continue the drill, "How to take it back?"
"Still to figure it out." Yuan Anning shook his head.
"What's wrong with you?" Nanfeng looked at Yuan Anning in confusion. Yuan Anning's forehead and neck were covered with sweat, and her face looked very ugly.
Yuan Anning shook his head again, "It's okay."
Seeing her like this, Nanfeng was very confused. He also saw that her right hand was wrapped with a handkerchief, so he reached out to grab her right hand.
Yuan Anning couldn't avoid it and was caught by him. After untying the handkerchief, I saw that the black spot on the back of Yuan Anning's hand had obviously grown in size. It was only the size of a grain of rice before, but now it was as big as a bean.
"Why didn't you tell me that the bone-melting water would corrode and spread?" Nanfeng asked anxiously.
"It's okay." Yuan Anning pulled back his hand.
Nanfeng didn't say much and immediately packed his things. The soft whip that extended from the short stick would not be retracted, so he crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into the baggage.
"Let's go." Nanfeng shouldered the burden and pulled Yuan Anning up the stairs.
After climbing dozens of steps, Nanfeng turned around and looked back, only to see that the five-clawed golden dragon had climbed out from the corner with difficulty. It was blocked by the steps and could not follow, so it could only look up helplessly from the bottom of the steps.
Nanfeng wanted to leave cruelly, but although he wanted to leave, he couldn't bear to take a step. He pondered for a long time and sighed, stretched out his hand to Yuan Anning, "Give me the medicine..."
