MTL - Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?-Chapter 4 4%
Ji Qingzhuo was splashing about in the water, she didn't know how to swim, and she didn't have much strength in her limbs. She clearly felt that she tried her best to splash the water to float herself up, but it didn't help.
Because of her nervousness, she spit out all the air in her chest, her body became heavier and heavier, and the lake water covered her head.
No one paid attention to the changes that happened here, because no one would have guessed that there are still people in Jianshan Lake who can't swim.
The lake is wide, and the monks who entered the water in the distance have already dived into the water to find clues. The immortal seekers in the lake are all competitors, and no one will come to help Ji Qingzhuo.
Even the disciple of Xuanyun Sect who wanted to rush over to grab her just now, after saving her donkey Mao Mao, led Mao Mao aside to play with it, and didn't pay attention to it at all.
Only Shen Rongyu found out that Ji Qingzhuo was drowning, the sun was shining like gold, his body was fixed not far from Ji Qingzhuo, and he didn't move.
Ji Qingzhuo is a very quiet person. Even though she was drowning, she sank and tried her best to get up, but she didn't yell or ask for help.
The lake water was icy cold, and Ji Qingzhuo felt that her limbs were frozen in the water, and her paddling was extremely stiff. Because of the lack of oxygen, her originally held breath relaxed, and she choked on water.
The nasal cavity seemed to be blocked by something, and it hurt, Ji Qingzhuo couldn't even hear the system's broken thoughts.
She is just an ordinary person, but who is Shen Rongyu? It is the most evil existence in this world. She bound the system and wanted to get close to him. It seemed like an easy task, but she actually went up there. The road was full of dangers, and any small accident could kill her.
Ji Qingzhuo was still waving her arms as hard as she could, but she didn't know how to swim, and such movements would only make her sink further.
She took another sip of water, and the cold lake water poured into her chest, and she sank straight down—still without the intention of calling for help from others.
As long as Ji Qingzhuo struggled, Shen Rongyu observed her for a long time.
When Ji Qingzhuo sank slowly, he slightly raised his chin, there was no emotion in his eyes, but a probing look.
Even if Ji Qingzhuo just drowned in front of him like this, it has nothing to do with him, it is clear that she is overreaching, and even a mortal wants to ascend to the rank of seeking immortality.
However, Ji Qingzhuo was surprisingly silent. Shen Rongyu had seen people floating in the sea of blood. In the **** water filled with blood, there were people with injured limbs who wanted to climb out of the sea of blood. Blood is still bubbling, and his vitality is constantly being lost, but he will still try his best to pull all the things around him that he can get. If it is someone else, he will pull others under him as a foothold.
The struggle before dying is the most interesting, and Shen Rongyu likes to watch it.
Ji Qingzhuo is extremely boring, like a dead wood, and she will not lose control and go crazy, showing her ugly appearance with her sword edge across every fragile flesh and blood meridian in his body.
It's not that she doesn't want to live, it's just that she tries her best, but she only shrinks in her own world. In her world, there is no "other people", only herself.
Ji Qingzhuo closed her eyes, she thought, I'm really sorry for this system, if only it could find someone more capable.
Her hands and feet were as heavy as lead, and she was wrapped in the cold lake water, like a flowing cocoon.
Until a big palm embraced the back of her head, the temperature of his fingers was colder than the lake water, and Shen Rongyu's sleeve robe swung in the clear lake water, like a dry flower unfolding.
He dragged Ji Qingzhuo up to the surface of the lake. In Jianshan Lake, in order to detect the fairy bone of the seeker, all spells could not be used, so the air flow between Shen Rongyu's fingertips also disappeared.
Skin to skin, touching without gaps, under Shen Rongyu's fingertips, are her pulsating blood vessels, pulsating.
"哗啦" there was a sound of water, Ji Qingzhuo's hood drooped down, soaked in water, and hung heavily on her back, and the cheeks stained by the wind, food and sleep along the way were also washed by the water of Jianshan Lake.
Her long eyelashes were stained with water in embarrassment, and her slightly squinted eyes had a clear light.
The system is right, she is indeed very good-looking, but Ji Qingzhuo magically has the ability of "I don't know I'm pretty", as long as she wants to hide, no one will notice her, nor will she pay attention her looks.
Appearance is not only related to simple beauty and ugliness, but also affected by this person's temperament. For example, Meng Yaolan, the eldest lady of the Meng family that Ji Qingzhuo noticed on the lakeside just now, assuming that the girl has an ordinary appearance, but she stands in front of others. Bright and atmospheric, able to attract everyone's attention.
Ji Qingzhuo is more like a small flower that occasionally grows when a ray of skylight leaks from the skylight in the basement. It is extremely delicate, but extremely inconspicuous.
Shen Rongyu patted her on the back, and Ji Qingzhuo spat out the lake water in his chest, which made her feel better, and she regained consciousness.
She stared blankly at Shen Rongyu in front of her, she didn't expect that he saved her.
One day after coming to Xuanyunzong, this legendary villain actually saved her twice?
Ji Qingzhuo suspects that she is dreaming, but the continuous filling of energy in the system tells her that everything that happened just now is a fact.
Because the system was absorbing energy just now, it excitedly told Ji Qingzhuo: "Host, you can find a way to post more next time, so that I will be able to unlock my first function soon." .”
Ji Qingzhuo didn't answer the system's words, because Shen Rongyu was still holding her arm, and only relying on him, she didn't sink any further.
At this time, the white bird that was constantly flying around the Jianshan Lake to provide a view also flew here. It spread its wings, lowered its gliding height, skimmed over the water, and gave Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu a close-up.
On the golden Jianshan Lake, Shen Rongyu quietly watched Ji Qingzhuo, but Ji Qingzhuo didn't even dare to look at him, her eyes avoided and drifted elsewhere.
In the main hall of Xuanyun Sect, the elders who saw this scene were all taken aback.
"Is she drowning just now? This... is not afraid of even the water of Jianshan Lake, but she can't swim?" Jiang Qianke asked in surprise.
"Fortunately, Rongyu is here, otherwise, if a mortal dies in Jianshan Lake, if the master returns, we will definitely be scolded." Another elder sighed, "But I saw her clearly without a trace of fairy bones. , why..."
"I don't know, this girl is too weird." Jiang Qianke looked into Ji Qingzhuo's eyes. He has seen a lot. It was so beautiful that he couldn't find a single flaw, but this was the first time he had seen it.
It's strange, even though she was good-looking, people still couldn't keep their eyes on her, Jiang Qianke thought so.
Ji Qingzhuo was still in a stalemate with Shen Rongyu, she opened her mouth and thanked: "Thank you for saving me."
Shen Rongyu let go, and Ji Qingzhuo immediately sank like a weight. She was wearing a lot of clothes, which pulled her down.
He grabbed her arm again.
Ji Qingzhuo was extremely nervous, and the wet clothes pressed against her body, wrapping her.
She didn't have the courage to look at Shen Rongyu, her eyes moved elsewhere.
Ji Qingzhuo noticed Shen Rongyu's hand hanging by his side. The lake water was so clear that if he looked carefully, he could see the underwater situation clearly.
He held her arm with one hand, and under the sleeve robe on the other side was a tightly clenched hand. He was not afraid of pain, but there was still a physiological reaction.
Shen Rongyu's knuckles turned white, obviously in extreme pain, but his face was still calm, with no trace of pain showing.
Even though he came here with the token of Da Neng Yuanwu, the senior of Xuanyunzong, and has become the well-known senior brother Shen of Xuanyunzong in the past few decades, Jianshanhushui still will not tolerate him.
Looking at mountains and lakes, taking water as a mirror, can clearly illuminate everyone. Shen Rongyu is the future villain who sneaked into Xuanyunzong. The fairy bones are dust-free and pure, but how could he have them?
When he entered here, it was like entering a boiling cauldron, and he was suffering bone-biting pain all the time.
And he was still in the mood to stay and appreciate Ji Qingzhuo's struggle before his death—he was just curious.
Ji Qingzhuo guessed that he was enduring the pain, but what could she do, she seemed to have to tell him to drink more hot water.
There is still a distance from the other side here, and many immortal seekers who can persevere are about to come to the other side.
The white bird recording the situation is still here. It is curious that the two last people - Shen Rongyu fed it with fairy fruits when they were in Xuanyunzong. It remembers it very clearly.
Seeing that the white bird did not retreat, Shen Rongyu could only ask Ji Qingzhuo, "Do you want to go back or go to the other side?"
Now that she has the opportunity, Ji Qingzhuo will not give up, she said to Shen Rongyu, "Can I go to the opposite side?"
"Let's hurry up." Because Shen Rongyu's hand hanging by his side was still trembling - because of the pain, but his hand holding her arm was as hard as some kind of carved jade.
Shen Rongyu dragged her to the opposite bank, the bank of Jianshan Lake, which was a milky white mist, with occasional wisps of crimson drifting through inside, like peach petals, the real entrance to Shuiyun Peak was hidden behind the mist.
At the bottom of Jianshan Lake just now, there are many map fragments scattered. If you can endure the washing of the lake, you can pick up clues at the bottom of the lake, and you can find your way even in the mist.
Ji Qingzhuo doesn't know how to swim, and Shen Rongyu doesn't know how to help her find it. She wants to enter the mist of peach blossoms now, so she can only look for the direction randomly.
After she went ashore, Shen Rongyu turned around and went to the bottom of Jianshan Lake to search for clues on the map. Ji Qingzhuo's guess was right, he didn't have any bones, so if he wanted to find the exit in the mist of peach blossoms, he could only use all the Find all the map fragments.
There was a shining formation on the shore, Ji Qingzhuo walked in, the water soaked all over her body was dried by the formation, and even the sound of wind and dust that brought her to Xuanyunzong was washed away, her slightly drooping Her cheeks have delicate and beautiful outlines, and even humble clothes can't hide her complexion.
At this time, Qiu Mingxue, who had searched for a long time in the lake and only found two maps, came ashore, and her maid Yingxiu also followed her step by step. The two princesses and maids of the small country in Yunzeyu were also miraculous. They all have a good relationship.
Ji Qingzhuo turned her back to them. When she entered the water, Qiu Mingxue hadn't paid attention to her. When she saw Ji Qingzhuo's back, Qiu Mingxue was startled. She couldn't believe that Ji Qingzhuo could come up—and he was worse than them. Quick, she is clearly a dull mortal!
"Little beggar!" she called, "how did you get here?"
Ji Qingzhuo didn't answer her, because she was not called a little beggar, she just lowered her head and silently adjusted her robe.
She was thinking, Shen Rongyu went into the water again, how much pain did he have?
If it weren't for her, would Shen Rongyu spend less time soaking in Jianshan Lake?
She was thinking about her own affairs and was waiting to communicate with the system when Qiu Mingxue had already ordered her maid Yingxiu to come forward.
"Our princess asked you something, little beggar—" Ying Xiu patted Ji Qingzhuo's shoulder heavily.
"Ah." Ji Qingzhuo came back to his senses, turned around, took off her hood, and washed off the dirt on her face, revealing only her fair face.
