Chapter 173 Fighting
I heard Tu Shanjing's voice, and I felt relieved and turned around.
I saw him holding my arm with one hand and covering his abdomen with the other hand, and blood was slowly flowing out from between his fingers.
I was shocked and said, "Sir, are you hurt?!"
He replied, "It's okay, let's go." Then he took my hand and took a step forward.
I said, "Okay," but turned around quickly and slapped him in the face.
He let go of my hand in pain and fell to the ground.
I took the opportunity to yell, "Master, I'm not in 'Bi Ri'!" and rushed to the second healing hole he had explored before.
I didn't dare move much, I just held my breath and huddled not far from the cave entrance.
The sound of golden swords started again, this time fast and urgent. When the sound disappeared, Tu Shanjing's voice sounded: "Nine True Radiance, Flowing Dan Wandering, Nine Scenes of Separation and Reunion, Jade Cave Golden Health, Nine Mysterious Edicts..."
When I heard this, I felt dizzy and disoriented. I couldn’t see or hear anything, and for a moment I didn’t know where I was.
When I woke up, I saw Tu Shanjing sitting in front of me. Behind him was a very wide underground river. The river water was steaming and extremely turbulent. On the other side of the river, a crooked tree grew diagonally on the edge of a high cliff. A waterfall flowed down from the high cliff, but we could see some stone platforms on the side. There were still many night-shining pearls embedded on the top of the wall. The water reflected the pearl light, illuminating the place.
Seeing me wake up, he raised his hand and waved it in front of my eyes, and asked softly, "Are you okay? I used the mysterious sound to confuse the two of you, found you in the second cave, and brought you out of the fifth cave."
Although he made a lot of sense, I was still a little scared. I grabbed his hand and stroked it up and down, then I said with relief: "You are real."
His ears turned red, and he asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you not fully awake yet? I can recite the spell to remove the enchantment again."
I waved my hands: "I am awake. It's just that the man just disguised himself as you to deceive me, and I slapped him away."
He smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to see through the illusion."
I blushed and said, "I didn't see through him...but his hands were very rough and calloused. As soon as he pulled my hand, I knew he was not the young master."
His face turned red completely, and he cleared his throat and said, "He has strong spiritual power. Although he was hit by my mysterious sound, it can only make him temporarily deaf. I am not sure I can kill him. Let's find a way to escape as soon as possible before he understands the secret of the cave."
I nodded and looked at the river behind him. This side was narrow, but the other side was long and disappeared at the end of the river. Maybe there was a way out. But it was impossible for us to swim across by ourselves. We might be washed away as soon as we got in.
He was probably thinking the same thing, and suddenly said, "I have a way for both of us to get through. But we can't try it, and it's a bit dangerous to go directly."
I replied, "Sir, the situation is very dangerous now. You can't build without breaking. Don't worry too much about me."
He said, "Okay then, we just need to cooperate. I'll throw you into the air first, then transform into my original form. My original form is much lighter than this, so I should be able to reach you by stepping on the cave wall and jumping back. I'll step on you in the air and use the force to fly to the other side, then immediately transform into a human form and turn around to catch you as you fall."
It was a bit confusing to me, but I roughly understood it. It was a set of difficult gymnastics moves like aerial rotation and twisting throws and catches. Fortunately, I was just a stepping stone and he had to complete the real moves, so I nodded to show my agreement.
He took my hands with both hands, squeezed them, and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
I bit my lip and replied, "Okay, come on."
The next second he threw me out easily. I lay on my back looking at the top of the wall. The feeling of being suspended in mid-air made my heart seem to stop for a beat, and my mind went blank for a moment.
Then I saw a white, furry belly, and then a small paw with pink pads stepped on my shoulder, and a large fluffy tail passed by my eyes.
Just when I was thinking "Ah, I really want to be rubbed", I fell straight down and even felt the wet heat on my back.
One hand grabbed my wrist, then the other.
I fell into the water, but he immediately pulled me out.
I was soaked and his clothes were soaked too, but luckily we managed to cross the river bank safely.
I saw him looking up at the platform, and I followed his gaze.
"I'm afraid this is the only place where treasure can be hidden." He said thoughtfully.
I saw that the cliff was smooth on all sides and the angle was straight up, with no place to stand. I couldn't help but sigh, "Even so, who can climb up? The birds that can fly can't get in, and the foxes that can get in can't fly."
"What the girl said is quite true, so I'm here to help." Gui Fangqian's voice came from the other side of the river. We were both startled and looked over. We saw that he had actually broken through the maze and walked over. He reached behind his back and took off a silver box on his back.
"Oh no! They stole Bingpo for this purpose!" Tu Shanjing transformed his right hand into a short sword and blocked in front of me.
Gui Fangqian poured a pile of crystal-clear things from the box into the river. In an instant, the river water stopped turbulent and froze into ice while maintaining its surging state.
Gui Fangqian reached out and drew out his long sword, then stepped across the glacier and fought with Tu Shanjing again.
He wanted to climb up along the frozen ice of the waterfall, but Tu Shanjing tried to stop him, and they fought hard around the cliff platform.
They were too fast, so I didn't dare to attack rashly or use the Rain of Pear Blossom Needles, for fear of accidentally hurting Tu Shan Jing. I could only follow them anxiously.
Gui Fangqian stepped on the ice steps formed by the waterfall, and swung out a spiritual wind with one palm to force Tu Shanjing back. With his other hand, he stabbed the long sword into the ice, pulled the handle and rushed up more than ten feet. Tu Shanjing flew forward and chased after him in the same way before he drew his sword.
The two of them continued to fight on the crooked tree. I looked up anxiously, wondering if Gui Fangqian had also gone to the healing cave. How come he was holding his abdomen and bleeding in the maze just now, but now he has divine power and is fighting vigorously.
Seeing that Gui Fangqian had climbed to the top of the tree and was only one step away from the top of the platform, Tu Shanjing hurriedly attacked him with a ball of spiritual light.
Gui Fangqian didn't even dodge and took the attack head-on. He flew up and was about to reach the platform.
Tu Shanjing stepped forward, grabbed the corner of his clothes, and climbed up.
The tree snapped in the middle, its crown falling to the ground, and I quickly climbed up it using my hands and feet.
The trunk was very rough and the thorns pricked my hands, but I ignored them and climbed up with gritted teeth.
As soon as I showed my head, I saw Gui Fangqian sending a ball of fiery spiritual power towards a wooden box on the ground. No matter how fine the material of the wooden box was, it had been rotten over the years and could not withstand a single blow, and it began to burn.
Tu Shanjing mobilized his spiritual power behind him, preparing to give him a fatal blow.
Unexpectedly, he pulled out a sword from the fire and slashed at Tu Shan Jing through the air.
