Seeking Immortality

Seeing that Xu Qingfan was so seriously injured, Dongfang Qingling was horrified. He, who had always been calm and generous, looked at the fist-sized wound on Xu Qingfan's chest, the blood flowing out, and the blood-soaked clothes that could no longer be dyed with a drop of blood. The ever-expanding pool of blood around him suddenly became chaotic. He ignored the messy blood stains on his body and hurriedly crawled to Xu Qingfan's side. However, he was at a loss and didn't know what to do for a moment.

After swallowing the healing elixir with difficulty, Xu Qingfan broke into a cold sweat and his face became paler.

Seeing Dongfang Qingling awake and kneeling next to him with a flustered look on his face, he was at a loss. Although he was worried, he didn't even dare to touch him. Xu Qingfan turned around, forced a smile to himself and said, "Junior sister Dongfang, don't worry. , I’m fine.”

He comforted Dongfang Qingling and thought about how to treat his injuries.

But Dongfang Qingling's eyes were focused on Xu Qingfan's chest, and the huge wound was magnified infinitely in her eyes. Her eyes were panicked and guilty, and she just murmured unconsciously: "Brother Xu, it's all my fault, I'm sorry... …”

In Dongfang Qingling's view, if she had not been caught by the bell spirit, Xu Qingfan would not be like this at this moment. Xu Qingfan was seriously injured at this moment, but it was all her fault.

Seeing Dongfang Qingling's appearance, which was completely different from her usual generous and rational appearance, Xu Qingfan secretly sighed. No matter how generous Dongfang Qingling behaved on weekdays, in the final analysis, she was still just a fellow disciple of her master. Oh, women who grew up under the material.

"Don't panic." Xu Qingfan gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and said with difficulty: "I can't blame you for this, I am too arrogant. I just deserve to end up like this. I have almost lost all my strength now, and it will take a long time to recover from my injuries. For a while, I can only rely on you. The Zhong family must be searching for us in the Mannan Wasteland at this moment. The danger is still not over. If you panic at this time, we will be doomed. "

After Xu Qingfan said this. However, most of the strength he had finally accumulated was exhausted, and the figure in his eyes became even darker.

"Yes. Senior Brother Xu is now like this, all because of my dragging him down. At this time, I must not drag Senior Brother Xu down anymore."

Although Xu Qingfan's words were low, they were so loud in Dongfang Qingling's ears. In an instant, Dongfang Qingling woke up from her panic and secretly made up her mind.

I thought I would have to comfort Dongfang Qingling some more before she could regain her composure. But he didn't expect that after just saying these words, the panic on Dongfang Qingling's face gradually subsided, and then a look of determination appeared.

Then, Dongfang Qingling nodded lightly, stopped talking, and carefully looked at Xu Qingfan at this moment. The injury was still dazzling, but her eyes were no longer panicked.

"Bah!

Then, there was a sound of clothes being pulled, but it was Dongfang Qingling who pulled out a clean piece of clothing from her sleeves. Xu Qingfan originally thought that she would be replaced by him. But she didn't expect that she would pull with both hands and tear the clothes into several pieces of cloth. Then he took out some ointment and disinfectant powder for treating trauma, and applied it gently on Xu Qingfan's wound, and then wrapped the cloth strips around Xu Qingfan's chest, doing so gently and carefully, for fear of disturbing Xu Qingfan's chest. He turned a blind eye to the injuries on his hands that were wet with blood, and there was no sign of weakness in his expression.

At the critical moment, Dongfang Qingling finally showed her perseverance.

Xu Qingfan had previously circulated his spiritual energy, used some healing techniques, and swallowed the healing medicine, but the blood in his chest was still flowing. At this time, although the blood had soaked the cloth, the stupidest method was to cut the wound The non-stop bleeding stopped.

Although Dongfang Qingling's movements were gentle, they still made Xu Qingfan, who was covered in wounds, feel pain. However, in order not to worry Dongfang Qingling, he did not show it, but his face became increasingly pale.

"Don't talk and save some strength. I can only help you treat your external injuries. You have to rely on yourself for internal injuries."

Dongfang Qingling kept moving her hands, wiping the cold sweat that kept flowing out of Xu Qingfan's face. Seeing that Xu Qingfan's lips were chapped, and his body had obviously lost water after losing too much blood, he used the water method again, and there was a gap between his two bare hands. Another handful of water was gently brought to Xu Qingfan's mouth, and he spoke softly at the same time.

Xu Qingfan nodded slowly, but at this time he didn't even have the strength to speak. With the help of Dongfang Qingling, he stretched out his head and drank the water held in Dongfang Qingling's hands.

While drinking water, Xu Qingfan's lips inevitably touched Dongfang Qingling's hand. However, neither of them paid attention to this at this moment. Xu Qingfan was just drinking water, while Dongfang Qingling just watched Xu Qingfan drink water silently. Between concern and concern, a hint of tenderness flashed across his expression.

It was true that he had lost too much water and his brain was a little drowsy because of it. After drinking three handfuls of water in a row, Xu Qingfan finally regained some strength and his mind became clearer.

"Help me."

Xu Qingfan said softly and weakly.

Dongfang Qingling nodded meekly, followed Xu Qingfan's instructions, helped him up, put a wrench on his feet, and placed Xu Qingfan in a meditating position.

"I'm going to meditate for a while, so be careful."

Xu Qingfan was tired and in pain after all the tossing, and he gasped after a long time.

Dongfang Qingling still nodded, while silently wiping the cold sweat from Xu Qingfan's face.

Seeing Dongfang Qingling like this, Xu Qingfan finally felt relieved. He circulated the spiritual energy in his body with difficulty, performed the "Sleeve Qiankun" technique, took out the "Holy Spirit Relic", and placed it between his chest and abdomen. After such a toss, the "Holy Spirit Relic" finally recovered its energy.

Once the "Holy Spirit Relic" appeared, a golden and white halo radiated outward, wrapping Xu Qingfan's body in it. For a while, Xu Qingfan only felt a burst of comfort. The previous pain and fatigue were instantly reduced by four or five points, and all kinds of injuries were also greatly relieved.

Most importantly, the "corpse refining" curse was also greatly suppressed under the power of the "Holy Spirit Relic". The numbness that was originally spreading to the whole body paused instantly and was compressed at an extremely slow speed.

Xu Qingfan sighed helplessly. The power in the "Holy Spirit Relic" was too pure and huge. He couldn't call it at all, and could only use its power slightly. But even so, in this golden and white halo, Xu Qingfan was able to achieve twice the result with half the effort, whether healing or expelling the curse.

Everything finally became normal, and he took a deep breath. He slowly closed his eyes and entered deep meditation.

Although the biggest threat to Xu Qingfan at this moment was the "corpse refining" curse that the eleventh old man of the Zhong family had cast on him. But the first thing Xu Qingfan did after meditation was to treat the internal injuries caused by the successive severe injuries in his body, because if the internal injuries were not healed, the efficiency of the spiritual energy in the body would be greatly slowed down, and it would be even more difficult to expel the "corpse refining" curse. What's more, forcibly running the spiritual energy in the body under severe injuries would aggravate the injuries and even leave stubborn diseases, which needed to be dealt with carefully.

Fortunately, surrounded by the light of the "Holy Spirit Relics", the spread of the "corpse refining" curse was greatly slowed down. Xiuxian retreated to heal or practice. He had the least sense of time, and often closed his eyes. When he opened them again, it was already a year or even several years later.

Having swallowed a large amount of spiritual medicine before, and with the help of the "Holy Spirit Relics", Xu Qingfan's speed of healing the injuries in his body was still slow.

But the first step was finally completed.

It took about a month for the injuries in his body to recover completely, but with the help of the powerful medicine and the golden and white halo, combined with Xu Qingfan's magical power "The Way of Life and Death", the chest injury gradually healed.

When Xu Qingfan opened his eyes, it was night, and the first thing he saw was Dongfang Qingling staring at him blankly.

Dongfang Qingling didn't know how long she had been like this. When Xu Qingfan just meditated, she was still staring at the surroundings vigilantly, just in case, but as time went by, the surrounding scene was still very calm, and Dongfang Qingling gradually felt a little bored, so she sat in front of Xu Qingfan, looking at Xu Qingfan surrounded by the golden and white halo, but she unconsciously became dazed.

This was the first time she observed Xu Qingfan so openly. Before, she was used to hiding in a corner to do such things.

Two hundred years, the world has changed, but the faces of the two have not changed at all. Xu Qingfan is still handsome, but a little more vicissitudes, and Dongfang Qingling is still charming, but the savageness of the past has become generous and rational today. In the final analysis, it has changed.

Silently following behind Xu Qingfan, silently watching Xu Qingfan's persistence and fatigue, it has been two hundred years. As she got to know him better, Dongfang Qingling found that she was gradually sinking into it. Slowly, silently following Xu Qingfan behind her, observing Xu Qingfan's joys and sorrows, secretly sharing his joys and sorrows, seemed to have become a habit.

At this moment, looking at Xu Qingfan in front of her, Dongfang Qingling seemed to suddenly think of a lot of things, all kinds of emotions stepped into her heart, and she seemed to think of nothing, and her heart was unprecedentedly peaceful.

But no matter which one it is, Dongfang Qingling suddenly found that at this moment, she was so fulfilled, there was something for her to wait for, something worth her to rely on.

There are two types of women, some love because of understanding, and some love because of being understood.

Dongfang Qingling belongs to the former.

Watching Xu Qingfan's face gradually become ruddy during meditation, she was happy in her heart. Watching Xu Qingfan frowned in the middle of meditation, but worried for a long time. The wind in the southern wilderness was strong. Dongfang Qingling sat silently on the wind, blocking the wind for Xu Qingfan, occasionally tidying up Xu Qingfan's hair that was blown by the wind, or wiping the stains on his face left by the wind, trying to keep Xu Qingfan in the best condition.

Looking forward to the moment when Xu Qingfan recovered from his injuries and woke up again, but inexplicably thinking that it would continue like this, so that she would just guard and watch Xu Qingfan silently.

This look was like meditation, forgetting the passage of time. Sunrise and sunset, until Xu Qingfan slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing Xu Qingfan open his eyes, Dongfang Qingling suddenly woke up, and her cheeks were rosy. She looked very charming.

But Dongfang Qingling knew that this was not the time to have wild thoughts, so she quickly gathered her emotions, and her eyes changed from shy to concerned. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she moved closer to Xu Qingfan. She asked softly, "Brother Xu, how are you?"

After Xu Qingfan woke up, he was thinking about how to get rid of the curse in his body after a while, and did not notice Dongfang Qingling's loss of composure. After hearing Dongfang Qingling's inquiry. He smiled with relief and said: "The internal and external injuries have healed. But the person from the Zhong family who I killed before gave me a curse. It was extremely powerful, but I had to find a way to get rid of it."

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words, a trace of worry flashed in Dongfang Qingling's eyes. The curse technique is the most mysterious and weird in the world of immortality. Once it is caught, unless you can deal with it well, you will only die.

But Dongfang Qingling didn't want to worry about upsetting Xu Qingfan, so she carefully hid this worry deep in her heart. She saw some stains on Xu Qingfan's face caused by the wind. Subconsciously, I wanted to erase it for him. Just as he had been doing this month, he carefully took care of Xu Qingfan. Xu Qingfan

But suddenly he thought that Xu Qingfan's body could move at this moment. He stretched out his hand to the middle, but it turned into a movement of gathering his head. He pretended to be casual and asked: "Is there any way?"

Xu Qingfan smiled and said: "Of course there is a way. Although the Zhong family's secret method of darkness is ever-changing, it never deviates from its origin. It is just a hidden use of death energy and corpse poison. My method has a restraining effect on it. In my hand There is also a treasure that can be called the nemesis of this technique, and it is not that difficult. "

In fact, every curse will have some kind of danger when it is exorcised, even if it is dealt with properly. The reason why Xu Qingfan said this was just to calm Dongfang Qingling's heart.

But Dongfang Qingling believed Xu Qingfan's words, joy flashed in her eyes, but she suddenly thought of something and asked: "Are the zombie master and those men in black all members of the legendary Zhong family? "

But from the beginning to the end, Dongfang Qingling didn't know who Zhong Ling and the fourth child of the Zhong family were.

Xu Qingfan nodded and replied: "There should be nothing wrong. The zombie master had asked me for a sacred object from his clan before, but in my hand I had something that looked very much like the head of the Zhong family's treasure, the Purgatory Rod. . And they can control the death energy zombies. Except for the Zhong family, no other family sect in the world of immortality has such magical powers. What's more, after you fell into coma, I negotiated with the man in black, and he personally admitted that they were. People from the Zhong family.”

As he spoke, Xu Qingfan's eyes showed a pensive look, but he began to habitually consider the changes that might occur in the world of immortality after the return of the Zhong family.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's contemplative expression, Dongfang Qingling interrupted: "Senior Brother Xu, you should first remove the curse from your body now. You can think about these things later."

Xu Qingfan nodded with a smile and said, "I'm worried."

After asking Dongfang Qingling some things about the past few days, Xu Qingfan meditated again.

This time, it was to get rid of the "Corpse Refining" curse in the body.

But this time Dongfang Qingling no longer stared at Xu Qingfan blankly like before. She realized something was wrong. After Xu Qingfan meditated this time, she began to look around cautiously to prevent accidents. .

In addition to concealing the danger, Xu Qingfan did not lie. His "Life and Death Art" can indeed restrain the Zhong family's "darkness" method. "Qi" can dissolve them. And the "Holy Spirit Relic" is also their nemesis.

At the beginning, things seemed to go very smoothly. Xu Qingfan discovered the dead energy and corpse poison hidden in various parts of the body. During the movement of spiritual energy, the corpse poison and dead energy were either refined or expelled, and the paralysis on the body The meaning is also gradually eliminated.

It took a month, but just as Xu Qingfan was about to dissolve the "Corpse Refining" curse, something unexpected happened.

Xu Qingfan was exorcising the spiritual energy that had been used to refine the "Corpse Refining" curse, when suddenly there was a burst of confusion. Under the backlash, Xu Qingfan's chest seemed to have been hit hard, and there was a sharp pain.

Dongfang Qingling, who was guarding beside him, saw Xu Qingfan's body suddenly shake, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Then, a blood arrow spurted out from Xu Qingfan's mouth, and Xu Qingfan's body collapsed to the ground.

Under the gap, Dongfang Qingling, who was already calm, became confused again. He hurriedly ran to Xu Qingfan, helped Xu Qingfan up, looked at Xu Qingfan with concern, and hesitated whether to input spiritual energy into Xu Qingfan's body for detection.

At this moment, Xu Qingfan slowly opened his eyes, with a wry smile on his face, and murmured: "It was a mistake, I was careless."

Seeing that Xu Qingfan didn't seem to be in trouble, Dongfang Qingling's heart dropped and she asked, "Senior Brother Xu, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Qingfan smiled bitterly and said: "I thought I was just suffering from one kind of curse, but I didn't expect that there were three kinds. The Zhong family's skills are indeed mysterious. When did the remaining two curses lurk in my body, I actually didn't know anything about them. I didn’t notice it, but when I exorcised one of them, the other two curses suddenly became difficult, but they caused me to be counterattacked by the spiritual energy.”

Hearing what Xu Qingfan said, Dongfang Qingling was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Is it serious?"

Xu Qingfan's bitter smile grew thicker and said: "Don't worry, the curse has been expelled from the body. It's just the spiritual energy backlash, but within a month I can't move at all."

Hearing what Xu Qingfan said, Dongfang Qingling finally felt relieved.

In this way, Xu Qingfan had no choice but to be taken care of by Dongfang Qingling for another month.

But during this month, Xu Qingfan began to reflect on his trip to the Southern Wilderness.
