Chapter 151: The Sword Cultivator Cousin in the Immortal Cultivation Novel (3)
The wind was chilly and cold, and Lin Xi, who was stumbling with one step deep and one step shallow, walked in the mud, struggling to walk in the swamp entangled with water plants.
Lin Xi forcefully cut the waterweed that was wrapped around her ankles, wiped the sweat from her forehead, raised her head to look at the pale moon above her head, and felt like crying but had no tears.
She once had a chance to lie down, but she didn't cherish it. If God gave her another chance, she would never have said those words "I need some strength in my hands and feet" when she was begging Wei Qingchuan and others to take her with them.
Now I am like a rookie who got into a big company by lying on his resume and bragging, shouldering everyone's expectations and trying to complete an almost impossible task.
Just as Lin Xi was lamenting the bumpy road ahead of her, she suddenly felt a warmth in her arms. She quickly wiped her muddy hands on her clothes and took out the jade talisman for transmitting sound.
After a burst of light, Luo Qinghe's voice with a bit of guilt came out from inside: "Ms. Lin, I'm really sorry, we have tried many ways, but still can't get in, we can only rely on you."
Although Lin Xi's heart was bleeding, he knew that there was really no way out. The place the waiter mentioned was a vast swamp. There was no idea what kind of barrier there was, not a trace of spiritual power, and the yin energy was extremely heavy. There was also a muddy swamp under his feet that could swallow people up if he was not careful.
Just as the waiter said, those who practice Taoism cannot enter, and neither can men. Only young women who know a little bit of martial arts and how to use their strength can pick the ghost fire lotus growing deep in the swamp and return safely.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh. In fact, everyone was against letting her in at the beginning, but Wei Qingchuan and Yue Qian went to the bank of the Boundary River and searched every inch of the scorched land, but they didn't find a living Youming Fire Lotus.
They tried many ways to enter the swamp, but still failed. Finally, Lin Xi couldn't stand it anymore and stood up herself. Wei Qingchuan and Luo Qinghe used threats and inducements to persuade her to give up the idea.
Of course, it can be seen from Lin Xi's standing here that she was the winner in the end, but what made her unhappy was why Wei Qingchuan did not follow the routine and asked her with a moving face why she did this, which made her carefully prepared touching and affectionate confession of "it's all for my cousin" come in handy.
But putting all that aside, Lin Xi really had to go into the swamp. The elder who needed this flower to make the elixir held a very important position in the Lingyun Sword Sect, and also occupied a very important position in the hearts of Wei Qingchuan and Luo Qinghe.
Therefore, even if Lin Xi did not come in, they would find other ways. Instead of letting the two of them get more entangled because of this matter, it is better to take the initiative to avoid more uncontrollable changes.
"You must keep the sound transmission jade talisman. The things we gave you should all be useful. The thing that looks like a sugar pill is a smoke pill. Throwing it out can disrupt your vision. The turtle shell is for protection. When you are in danger, take it out and chant "Shell Protection" and you can hide inside. The red rope is a demon-binding rope, which can tie up demons below the level of Demon General..."
In the sound transmission jade talisman, Luo Qinghe patiently repeated the methods of using various magic tools that she had taught Lin Xi countless times outside. Lin Xi listened quietly until Luo Qinghe really had nothing to say. Then she timidly said, "I remember everything, Sister Qinghe."
Outside the swamp, Luo Qinghe heard Lin Xi's tone, and immediately her mind flashed back to her, she was so scared that her body was shaking but she still pretended to be strong. Her nose felt sore, and her eyes immediately turned red. She tightly grasped the sound transmission jade talisman in her hand, and said with a choked voice: "Miss Lin, don't be afraid, we will always be waiting for you outside, everything is based on your safety, even if we don't pick the Nether Fire Lotus, we won't blame you, understand?"
"Got it, Sister Qinghe." At this point, Lin Xi's voice on the other side of the jade talisman paused, as if she sniffed lightly, and then continued, "Is my cousin here? I want to talk to him."
"Yes, yes, I'll give him the sound-transmitting jade talisman right away." Luo Qinghe was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was talking about her senior brother. She wiped away her tears and quickly handed the sound-transmitting jade talisman in her hand to Wei Qingchuan, who had been paying attention to the conversation between the two.
"I'm here." Hearing Lin Xi's crying voice in the jade talisman, Wei Qingchuan, who was always calm and steady, couldn't help but speak with a difficult tone. For the first time, he did not correct Lin Xi's way of addressing him.
"If I can't come back, can you please not forget me?" Lin Xi's voice was a little low.
"No! I will be here all the time. If there is any situation, I will tell you how to deal with it in time." As soon as Lin Xi finished speaking, Wei Qingchuan said firmly. After speaking, he seemed to feel that his tone was too stiff, and added: "Don't be afraid, we will always be with you."
"Yes, yes, Miss Lin, don't be afraid. We will keep finding ways to get in from outside. Maybe we will be able to come and accompany you soon. Don't be afraid." Song Qingguang also leaned his head over and shouted to Lin Xi.
"Listen to Senior Brother. He is the most powerful figure of this generation in our Lingyun Sword Sect. Nothing will happen to you." Other disciples also spoke out to comfort him.
"It doesn't matter if we don't find the Nether Fire Lotus. We'll think of a way after you come out."
"Okay." Lin Xi on the other end seemed to be finally moved by everyone's words, and mustered up the courage to speak, with an obvious hoarseness in his voice, "Masters, rest assured, I will definitely not let you down. Let's not talk about it for now. It's hard to tell the depth of this place. I have to concentrate on finding the way."
"Okay, your own safety is the most important thing." Wei Qingchuan returned the jade slip with dimming light to Luo Qinghe, looked at the barrier with faint fluorescent light flowing not far away, and continued to look for a way to break the impasse with a serious face.
