Chapter 87: Dan take it, you stay

Views:

Qin Yi fell under the tree.

There is hardly a piece of good meat on his body, all muscle fibers that have been frozen to death, and become shredded when the wind blows. Frozen meat and bones are connected to the body, and his face is stiff and expressionless, full of frozen blue and purple, like a zombie.

Bingguo was right in front of him, and it was only ten feet away from him hanging on the tree.

However, this is the end of the world.

He didn't have any strength at all, let alone jumping ten feet high, it would be difficult to raise his hand.

He didn't even have the strength to talk to the tassel mind, only a pair of eyes were still very smart, and they stared at the ice fruit that was only a few feet away from him, flickering eagerly.

Tassel didn't speak anymore and looked at him curiously.

In the hearts of ordinary people, it is despair and depression to stop at these few feet away, and watch the ice fruit that is close at hand but unable to pick it. But Qin Yi's eyes not only could not see any frustration, but were full of eagerness.

After getting along for so long, Liusu really never thought that Qin Yi had such a side, so strong and stubborn that he didn't look like a "dead house" at all.

This kind of stubbornness sometimes feels stupid, but sometimes it can be moved and appreciated.

It just depends on how close you are to this person.

I didn't even think about tassel, let alone Cheng Huang.

She looked at the mirror faintly, her hands clenched unconsciously, not knowing what she was thinking.

Qin Yi breathed for a moment, then slowly reached into his arms and took out a talisman.

With a "whoosh" sound, the wind was blowing.

The gust of wind that can smash people's souls around them suddenly gathered and stabbed the branches like sharp knives.

Wind Talisman.

Precise mana control, turning the surrounding bone scraping weather into its own blade, accurately scraping to the desired position.

With a "squeak", the ice branch broke, and a few ice fruits swayed down from the branch.

Qin Yi didn't even have the strength to stand up. He reached out and grabbed the ice fruit that fell in front of him, a smile on his stiff face.

Liusu sighed: "You never thought about it, how do you go back like this?"

"Uh!?" Qin Yi's smile froze on his face.

Then a wave of extreme exhaustion struck, and he finally fainted completely.

"What an idiot." Cheng Huang dropped the mirror and disappeared.

Tassel seemed to feel something, and whispered to himself: "The meaning of surveillance has disappeared."

The mace moved on its own, and took Qin Yi's body to the hole in the blink of an eye.

When Chenghuang appeared on the edge of the desert, what he saw was Qin Yi fainting like mud outside the cave, holding a mace in his right hand and an ice fruit in his left hand, which was crystal clear and beautiful.

Qin Yi didn't know how long he slept.

Even in a dream, I can feel the bone-chilling cold like falling into an ice cellar. My muscles are all being cut by a knife. When I move my body lightly, it is as uncomfortable as scraping a bone.

Even the spirit is not right, and there is a daze, accompanied by bursts of stinging pain.

He knew he was sick.

But later, someone gave him medicine, as if he heard Ye Ling crying.

Later, he was injected with warm spiritual power, and together with the medicinal power, he nourished his body, regenerated his muscles and activated his blood, and the pain turned into itching, and he finally woke up from the itch like the bite of ten thousand ants.

He found himself lying on the big soft bed, the pure white silk quilt exuding a pleasant fragrance. The body was bandaged like a mummy, unable to move at all, the pain was still coming, but it was already in the tolerable range. The spiritual power in the body has been washed and the true energy has flowed. It has recovered very well. There seems to be some signs of breakthrough in the mana.

"Awake?" A soft voice came from not far away, charming into the bone marrow.

This voice is so recognizable, you don't need to turn your head to know it's Cheng Huang.

Qin Yi opened his mouth, his voice a little hoarse: "Thank you, King."

Cheng Huang came over, Yingying sat beside the bed and looked at his face softly.

Qin Yi was taken aback.

She is not wearing a long dress outside, but a nightgown-style dress. The nightgown is loose, revealing a large area of white greasy and deep ravines on her chest. Qin Yi didn't dare to look any further, and subconsciously moved his eyes, only to see at a glance that she was holding a medicine bowl in her hand.

She scooped up a small spoon, blew lightly, put it to Qin Yi's mouth, and said softly, "Drink it."

Qin Yi opened his mouth in a daze. The temperature of the medicine was just right, the liquid dripped into his throat, warm and smooth, and he could clearly feel the medicinal power radiating out, continuing to nourish the muscles, bones and muscles.

"Your frostbite is very serious. If you don't take good care of it, your body will be useless." Riding the waves of yellow eyes, he chuckled lightly, "Including the small head that you think is more important than the big head, it is almost useless and can be cut."

Qin Yi was a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty is joking... Uh, do you know where my mace is?"

Cheng Huang looked strange: "I've never seen anyone who wakes up and asks for a mace... Could it be that I'm not as good-looking as a stick?"

"..." Cold sweat appeared on Qin Yi's forehead.

Cheng Huang didn't say anything, just continued to give him medicine.

Qin Yi didn't dare to say more, and he said again after drinking it honestly: "Thank you. How can I ask the king to personally..."

"It's nothing." Cheng Huang interrupted: "This king appreciates your act of disregarding your life for the sake of a promise. This kind of person should be regarded as a state scholar."

Qin Yi blushed a little and said tentatively, "That ice fruit..."

"This kind of longevity pill, I have other medicinal materials in my storage." Cheng Huang put down the medicine bowl and said indifferently: "Looking at your actions, all these medicinal materials are given to you, and this king can make medicine for you personally. But there is one condition."

Qin Yi was overjoyed: "Your Majesty, please speak."

The secret thought in my heart has come through like this, and there is still one condition left for you

Cheng Huang Youyou said: "These medicines are invaluable. It takes a lot of effort for this king to refine such a high-quality pill. It is impossible to pay so much for outsiders. Do you understand?"

"Well... I understand." Qin Yi said earnestly, "Your Majesty's kindness will be repaid by Qin Yi."

"This king doesn't need you to repay your kindness. I have already said that it is impossible to pay for outsiders." Cheng Huang said lightly: "The medicine pill can be refined for you, but you have to keep it."

"Uh?"

Cheng Huang said every word: "If you join your country, this pill is yours."

Qin Yi shook his head a little hard: "This, I don't want to perfunctory the king. I lied to Dan and left. To be honest, even if I don't have this pill, I have to go back to meet her."

"Just a woman." Cheng Huang said lightly: "I know that you have an old relationship with the Cheng family of Jinxiufang in the east of the city, and she also admires you. This king can make the decision to allow her to be your wife, but her beauty is not comparable. To your lover in the world?"

"Cheng Chengguo is beautiful, but that's two different things..." Qin Yi whispered: "This is not something that can be replaced, I can't live up to Qingjun."

Cheng Huang sneered: "If you don't want it, this king will give her to a monster at will, are you willing?"

Qin Yi said helplessly: "Why should the king take anger at a woman, Cheng Cheng is innocent."

"If you don't want her, she is destined to marry a monster, so why is she innocent?"

Qin Yi was dumbfounded, and after a while he sighed: "If Cheng Cheng is willing to come with me, I..."

Cheng Huang stared at him for a while, and suddenly chuckled: "Man."

Qin Yi's face was flushed, and he felt that his words were indeed a bit scum.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Huang said leisurely: "Although it's a bit shameless, it's better than saying something that's none of your business and letting her find her own sweetheart... It's still a bit of a conscience."

"..." Qin Yi was speechless.

"But if that's the case..." Cheng Huang said slowly: "Why do you want me to waste treasures, spend a lot of energy, and help you concoct alchemy? I am a demon king, and in your eyes, I am a selfless idiot who helps others?"

"It's not an idiot to help others selflessly..." Qin Yi muttered, but when he saw Cheng Huang's cold eyes, he had to shut his mouth.

This is troublesome...

When the atmosphere was getting colder and colder, a little girl's voice came from outside: "The outer formation of Kunpeng Zi Mansion has been lifted, and you can enter at any time."

"How's the jackal moving?"

"No movement..."

Cheng Huang chuckled lightly: "No movement is the biggest movement. If I expected it to be correct, the elites of the Guo Kingdom would have been waiting in his house for a long time."

"Then what do we do?"

Cheng Huang thought about it for a while, and the beautiful eyes suddenly passed over Qin Yifa's confused expression, and narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Do you understand the formation?"

Qin Yi said dumbly, "I understand a little."

"Help me do this, I'll concoct alchemy for you."
