MTL - Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?-Chapter 5 5%
Ji Qingzhuo turned his head and met the gaze of the maid Yingxiu.
In the daytime sunlight, her porcelain-white face is like a priceless work of art. Under the perfectly lined eyes, the long eyelashes are slightly drooping. She seems to be indifferent to everything. She is so beautiful that she is clear and straightforward. .
Rao Yingxiu used to be a maid in the palace and had seen countless beauties. The moment she saw Ji Qingzhuo, she was shocked for a moment.
"How did I come here, why did I tell you?" Ji Qingzhuo's tone was slightly puzzled.
If she had swam here by herself, she would not hesitate to share her method of getting here at this time, but it is a bit embarrassing to say that she was brought here by Shen Rongyu, Ji Qingzhuo was embarrassed to say.
"Our princess asks you something, don't be ignorant." Although Ji Qingzhuo's tone was soft, Yingxiu still thought she was provocative.
At this time, Qiu Mingxue came forward, and was about to question Ji Qingzhuo about the method to get to the other side, and saw Ji Qingzhuo's face.
"You..." The little beggar...
The three words "little beggar" can't be said at all, facing Ji Qingzhuo's face, no matter how blind she is, she can't call her "little beggar" again.
"You're a mortal, why are you here?" Qiu Mingxue was dazed by Ji Qingzhuo's appearance, she froze for a moment before continuing.
Although Qiu Mingxue has a bit of fairy fate, her aptitude is not top-notch, so she also felt pain all over her body during the second half of her swim in Jianshan Lake.
Even if she is like this, why didn't this little beggar be swallowed by Jianshan Lake?
"I just came here. It doesn't seem to make any sense to ask me why I came here." Ji Qingzhuo walked out of the cleansing formation. She ignored the two people and was just thinking about the next move.
She can't swim, and Jianshan Lake can't go down anymore. If there is no map, will it be dangerous to enter the mist of peach blossoms rashly?
Anyway, since the system told her to go, she can just go as she pleases.
"Did you cheat?" Qiu Mingxue chased after her, and continued to ask, she didn't believe that Ji Qingzhuo could withstand Jianshan Lake.
"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo admitted honestly, because strictly speaking, she didn't swim here by herself.
"Is this how your Xuanyun Sect selects new disciples?" Qiu Mingxue said to the Xuanyun Sect disciple who was guarding the bank.
The disciples of Xuanyun Sect here watched Ji Qingzhuo being brought up by Shen Rongyu. Originally, the purpose of setting up Jianshan Lake was to test the bones and hearts of immortal seekers. Can swim" question, as long as Ji Qingzhuo can withstand the washing of Jianshan Lake, then she will pass this test, so they did not raise any objections.
"Girls, she's fine." The Xuanyun Sect disciple nodded to Qiu Mingxue, "She just can't swim."
Qiu Mingxue was taken aback for a moment, and Ji Qingzhuo had already run to the shore, because she still remembered a figure on the other side.
Mao Mao, who was originally pushed to the shore by her, was standing on the opposite bank. It seemed to be looking at Ji Qingzhuo, but in fact she was not in its sight. It had been blindfolded all its life and its eyesight was not very good.
Maomao stepped into Jianshan Lake while others were not paying attention.
Here Qiu Mingxue was still thinking about how Ji Qingzhuo got here, while over there Mao Mao had already swam over from the opposite bank when no one noticed.
Ji Qingzhuo and Qiu Mingxue stood awkwardly on the shore, and the two had a strange tacit understanding at this moment.
She is not as good as a donkey?
Maomao was contented in the water, Ji Qingzhuo felt a little regretful, if he had known it would not be afraid, he should have rode it over with a straight face from the beginning.
Shen Rongyu collected all the map fragments, and when he went ashore, he happened to run into Mao Mao.
The old donkey swam towards him, Shen Rongyu had never seen a donkey that could swim, so he took a second look at it.
At this moment, Ji Qingzhuo jumped into his sight, she hugged Mao Mao's neck, this donkey accompanied her all the way, now it can come here, it's really great.
After Shen Rongyu came ashore, he didn't need to go into the cleansing formation, the water stains all over his body had been washed away by the spell he cast, and now he was still clean in white, with a clean appearance.
Ji Qingzhuo patted Maomao's neck, and then saw his hand hanging by his side.
His fingertips turned white, not because he had been soaking in the water for too long, but because of the continuous bone-biting pain.
She froze for a moment, the hand patting Mao Mao's neck stopped, her feet were nailed in place, she wanted to move, but she didn't know what to do.
"Did the Lingsuo not be used by it?" Shen Rongyu actually spoke first. Because he had just left Jianshan Lake and the lake like purgatory, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, which made him feel better, and even , looking at Ji Qingzhuo is also pleasing to the eye.
"No." Ji Qingzhuo half-bent, her long hair cascading down her shoulders, she explained seriously, "It doesn't seem to want to wear this."
Shen Rongyu didn't speak any more, he only held the sword in his hand, and walked towards the mist of peach blossoms. He walked in front of Ji Qingzhuo, and the faint fragrance of the bone piercing soul entered her nostrils again.
Ji Qingzhuo's delicate nose wrinkled, she thought the fragrance was very pleasant.
Shen Rongyu left, Ji Qingzhuo turned his head to look at his back, his white clothes were hidden in the thick white mist, with peach-colored petals brushing past.
The immortal seekers who are sure have already entered the mist of peach blossoms, and the remaining ones who are hesitating here are mostly thinking about whether to go to the water to find a few more map fragments.
Every round of Xuanyunzong's Immortal Seeking Conference, only twenty immortal seekers can pass the test. If these immortal seekers hesitate any longer, and the people in front find the real entrance of Shuiyun Peak, they will have no chance at all.
Over there, Qiu Mingxue ordered her maid Yingxiu to search the Jianshan Lake and brought up some map fragments. Even though Yingxiu also had fairy bones, she couldn't even stand firmly after walking twice.
This made Ji Qingzhuo start to wonder if Shen Rongyu was injured by Jianshan Lake just now.
If he said no, his knuckles turned white from the pain.
If yes, but how could he be so calm?
As if sensing Ji Qingzhuo's doubts, the system whispered to her: "Shen Rongyu doesn't have a fairy bone, he is connected to the earth's ghost energy, and the mountains and lakes are clean and flawless, and the most repelling him is that he can't show any painful expression, it's really scary ..."
Ji Qingzhuo froze for a moment, her hand touched Mao Mao's back again and again, until finally, she made up her mind to stand up.
"There is no map, I will go in and have a look." She said to the system.
When she came to the mist of peach blossoms, the Xuanyun Sect disciple who was guarding here stopped her: "Girl, are you sure you want to go in, but you don't have a map in your hand."
"There are many dangers in the mist of peach blossoms. It's not just as simple as not being able to see the way." The disciple explained seriously to Ji Qingzhuo, "If you don't have a map to guide you, if you stray into an ambush formation, you... don't have a trace of immortal bone, very May die in it."
"Ah... Is that so..." Ji Qingzhuo responded.
"Yeah, this is the end of you. Isn't it enough to get here? No way, you, a mortal, still want to pass the Ascension to Immortals Conference?" Qiu Mingxue's resounding voice rang out, "It's too overwhelming. some."
"Try to walk." If there is no way to catch up with Shen Rongyu and get close to him, the energy of the system is exhausted, she will finish the game, and there is still a glimmer of hope in entering the mist of peach blossoms.
Unlike Jianshan Lake, Ji Qingzhuo couldn't see the danger in the mist of peach blossoms, so she dared to go boldly.
"Xuanyunzong is really unlucky, you will have to collect your body after you die." Qiu Mingxue took the map fragments that Yingxiu scooped up as her own, and walked into the mist of peach blossoms by herself, without any intention of bringing the maid with her.
Yingxiu moved her steps, called "Princess", and wanted to follow, but Qiu Mingxue's figure had already disappeared.
Such an arrogant and selfish person naturally couldn't bear the fact that his maid was also qualified to cultivate immortality.
Yingxiu stood there blankly, but Ji Qingzhuo was stopped because Xuanyunzong didn't want to collect her body.
"To ensure safety, you must take out at least one map fragment before you can enter." Xuanyunzong disciple said to Ji Qingzhuo.
At this time, only Ji Qingzhuo and Ying Xiu were left on the bank of Jianshan Lake, and Shiratori, who was in charge of providing vision, squatted on the bank and looked at them with his head tilted.
"Although the words of the princess from Ze Kingdom are thorny, they are true. It should be the end of her life here." Jiang Qianke commented.
Ji Qingzhuo had given them enough surprises. She and her donkey were all mortal bodies, and they didn't know how they could resist the washing of Jianshan Lake.
"Go any further, but every step is dangerous. In this mist of peach blossoms, many immortal seekers have died. How can our Xuanyun sect's gate be so easy to step into?" Another elder also echoed, They didn't think that Ji Qingzhuo could pass the Fairy Seeking Conference at all.
They all guessed that Ji Qingzhuo was about to stop here.
However, when Ji Qingzhuo was thinking about whether to go back to Jianshan Lake to fish another map fragment, Mao Mao beside her stomped impatiently on the spot.
It looks like this, as if it feels a little itchy.
The next moment, there was a "crash" sound, and something fell from Mao Mao's butt.
When it went ashore, Maomao was wet, but now that it has been ashore for so long, its fur has dried up, and the things that were glued to its body by the water have fallen off.
——It was a fragment of a map stuck to Mao Mao’s **** at some time, it must have accidentally encountered it in the lake, and the map fragment stuck on it by the way, and it made the old donkey feel uncomfortable.
Ji Qingzhuo picked up the fragment of the map that fell from Maomao's body, held it in both hands, and handed it to the disciple of Xuanyunzong: "Look, it's a fragment of the map, can I go in?"
Disciple of Xuanyun Sect: "?" Does the one that fell from the donkey count?
But the words had already been spoken, so they could only turn around and let Ji Qingzhuo enter the mist of peach blossoms. Since this mortal was about to die, they couldn't stop him.
Ji Qingzhuo was about to walk into the mist with the only map fragment in his hand, but Yingxiu rushed up and grabbed her.
Not long ago, she was still by Qiu Mingxue's side, making things difficult for Ji Qingzhuo in every possible way. Now that Qiu Mingxue took away all the map fragments and left, she could only stay where she was—even though most of the map fragments were from her in Jianshan. Fished from the lake.
Ji Qingzhuo is the last chance.
"Can you... take me with you?" Ying Xiu looked at Ji Qingzhuo and said softly.
The author has something to say:
Best of the Match: Maomao
I searched for the question [Can a donkey swim?] Half of the people said the donkey could swim, and half said it couldn't, so I took it for granted.
