Chapter 26 [026] Five senses connected
“Ouch——!!!”

A terrible roar of a monster suddenly came from the other side!
The two were shocked. Shen Xiang was so frightened when he heard the familiar voice that his face turned pale. Without saying a word, he jumped directly onto Zhong Lijin: "Run, Junior Brother! It's coming again!!!"

Zhongli Jin was stunned. It must be that the conversation just now was captured by the monster!

Bird-feather-like scales flew towards us like rain, densely packed.

So fast that he could hardly catch it.

If the young man was alone, he could still dodge, but there was Shi Xiang behind him.

Once you avoid them, all those things will pierce the girl's body!

But if he pulled her along, the space created by his side step would also become a gap for the scales to pass through and pierce into Shi Xiang's body.

After all, she is Sect Leader Shi Yue’s biological daughter, and we can’t let her get hurt!
Zhongli Jin had no choice but to wave his sleeves, turn his back to the monster, gather his spiritual power behind his back, and resist with his flesh and blood.

All the sharp scales penetrated into the boy's body, and the blood stained by the evil spirit turned bright red, instantly soaking the pure white clothes like snow without any dust!
"..."

Blood flowed from the corner of the boy's lips, drop by drop, dripping onto Shen Xiang's face.

She stared with her pupils wide open, in astonishment and blankness, at the boy who was a head taller than her, her eyes bloodshot.

“Zhong… Zhongli…”

Zhongli Jin's lips were tightly closed, and he forced himself to hold back a mouthful of blood in his mouth so as not to spurt it out and scare the girl.

The boy swallowed hard, then said in a trembling voice: "Take this opportunity... to escape."

"Little Sister, run away."

The monster is approaching quickly.

"But you—"

"Run!!!" Zhongli Jin interrupted her with a shout, his eyes cold.

Shen Xiang was frightened by the boy’s eyes.

It seemed as if some overlapping images appeared before my eyes.

She felt a sharp pain in her head, and seeing Zhong Li Jin's appearance, she suddenly felt like she had seen the same scene somewhere before.

A cave.

A sword.

A pile of bandages.

There was also a figure who was supporting himself with a sword, facing her and using his flesh and blood body to block all attacks for her.

What was different from usual was that the bandages that were supposed to be wrapped around the man's limbs were all torn off, revealing the spells that had been hidden underneath.

Her eyes widened, and she was stunned with fear.

He sat there slumped, looking at the shadow.

Until the other party said——

"……escape."

“Run away.

"Little junior sister."

*
Shen Xiang ran away.

I don’t know if it was influenced by the original owner’s memory. Maybe before traveling through time, the original owner Shi Xiang had experienced similar things as myself.

The scene was the same as what Zhongli Jin had just defended against for her, so those things would unconsciously appear in her mind.

Run…Run…

Zhongli Jin is the male protagonist, he will be fine!
If I stay there, I might even hinder the other party!

After turning a stone path, before Shen Xiang could react, he was knocked to the ground by another body!
“Junior Sister——!!” a scream came from above, it was Cangying.

When she saw Shi Xiang's body covered in blood and dirt, she was so scared that she checked her body from head to toe!
"Are you OK?!"

"I'm fine! I, I... Zhongli Jin! Zhongli Jin is still behind! There's a monster!"

Monster!

Cangying was stunned and turned to look at Shi Qing.

Shi Qing understood everything, his eyes were cold and indifferent, the bandages on his body had already moved ahead of the girl's body, and he rushed towards the direction where Shi Xiang came from!
*
The blood slid down and dripped.

My back is burning with pain.

The sharp scales pierced into Zhongli Jin's back and became embedded in it.

The evil energy lingered around the body, further corroding the wound.

[Junior! Junior! Take the resurrection pill and stand up quickly, it's coming to you!]

Zhongli Jin's lips were red, his hands trembled slightly, and he took out a resurrection pill from his arms and swallowed it.

His handsome, pale face was stained with blood, his chest was heaving, and he was sweating.

The scales pierced deep into his bones. If he had not used his spiritual power to resist some of the force in advance, these things would have penetrated his body and killed Shi Xiang in front of him.

The resurrection pill restored some strength to Zhongli Jin's legs.

He forced himself to stand up, and used the blood to make a talisman. When the monster rushed up and was about to pierce the boy's heart with its sharp claws, Zhongli Jin turned around and attached the fire talisman to the monster's body, then pushed it hard, using the force to push it back - "All the gods pay homage, command thunder! Ghosts and demons are frightened, and goblins are dead! Destroyed!!"

"boom--!!!"

As the last spell was cast, the talisman instantly turned into thousands of thunder and lightning, striking the monster!

The Minotaur took a few steps back, and a burnt and rotten smell instantly spread from its body. Thick smoke rose and demonic energy surrounded it. It roared, and the sound shook the earth. It quickly spread in the stone road and was deafening.

Zhongli Jin took this opportunity to turn around and flee. The talisman could not last long. The most important thing now was to escape!
The monster seemed to have discovered the boy's intention. It let out a long roar, and its bird-like scales shot towards the boy again. Although he avoided some of them, the scales were too dense, and some of them still pierced Zhongli Jin's body, including his ankles!
At that moment, the scales seemed to have directly cut off his tendons. Zhongli Jin was stunned, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

His mind went blank for a moment, and at this moment he began to madly resent the group of evil cultivators who had destroyed him.

If it were in the past, he would have rushed forward with sword in hand.

If it were in the past - he wouldn't have to be so embarrassed.

If it was before...

before……

but--

There is no if and no if.

Zhongli Jin has been useless for a long time.

[Youngster! Those evil spirits are trying to influence your mind! Don’t let them catch you! ]

Once again noticing the boy's devilish tendencies, the old man hurriedly reminded him.

Zhongli Jin came back to his senses, and the whispers in his mind were swept away at this moment!

He suddenly realized that there was something wrong with his previous state.

Demonic energy can indeed create demonic obstacles and affect the mind of practitioners.

But even if he woke up at this moment, he could not escape the fate of falling heavily to the ground.

Zhongli Jin wanted to stretch out his hands to support his body, but the next second - four bandages rushing from the front wrapped up the boy's body before he could, preventing him from colliding with the ground. Then a gust of wind blew, blowing up the long hair on Zhongli Jin's temples.

As the afterimage passed by his face, he only felt as if a fleeting piece of cloth was brushing against his cheek, bringing a faint fragrance that soothed his body and mind.

“Ping!!”

The sharp claws collided with the sharp weapon, and the sound was crisp and shocking.

Zhongli Jin turned his head and his black pupils fell on the girl's back.

The monster was three feet taller than her, and its huge claws were tightly pressed against the seemingly tiny sword.

In contrast, the girl looked extremely thin, but it was with that thin body and arms that she managed to steadily catch the attack of the minotaur!

"Junior Brother Zhongli!"

Cangying rushed over, carrying Shen Xiang on her back.

She immediately gave the blood-restoring pill she carried with her to the young man and said, "Take it first. Can you still walk?!" "Sorry, Senior Sister Cang, I can't move for the time being." His tendons and veins were cut off, and he had to rely on the resurrection pill to slowly recover.

Zhongli Jin had already taken it before, and now it just takes some time.

Shi Qing fended off the Bull Monster.

She blocked the scales that were shot towards the three people one by one, without hurting the three people behind her at all.

The monster in front of him had a strange appearance, as if it was made by stitching together a bunch of monster corpses. A large amount of demonic energy surrounded the connected parts, supporting its body movements.

It was also the first time that Cangying saw this kind of monster, and her face turned slightly pale with fright.

"Shi Qing! You have to be careful! We don't even know how many levels this monster has!"

"Don't worry," Shi Qing said calmly, "I've seen it a lot."

He said he had seen it many times, as if the opponent was not some powerful monster, but an ordinary low-level cultivator.

After slowly putting the bandage down on the boy, he quickly returned to Shi Qing.

She was not lying, she had indeed seen it a lot when she was clearing the Wind and Thunder Tower.

After a period of time, the demonic energy inside the monsters she killed would extract part of their bodies and connect them together to form new monsters.

The Minotaur before us was similarly formed.

The girl's brown eyes swept across the monster, and after seeing the traces of evil energy lingering around the block-like connections, she rushed past the monster as fast as lightning with her sword sharp and her bandages fluttering!
The snow-white bandage seemed to be extremely sharp at that moment, turning into a sword blade that cut off the monster's body!
The monster stopped moving, and its body slowly rolled down piece by piece as if it had been cut into pieces, until finally the entire body collapsed with a loud bang!

Shi Qing slowly turned his head, his brown eyes staring at the corpse on the ground calmly and indifferently.

He then raised his eyes to look at the three people in front of him and said, "Okay."

--solve.

Zhongli Jin: “…”

Shen Xiang: “…”

Cangying: “…”

Just...solved it?

Just one sword? ! !
The white sword returned to its sheath, and Shi Qing returned to the three of them, saying, "Condensation."

"Just cut off the interface and it will be fine."

The monster is a condensation of demonic energy and corpses. As long as the connection of the demonic energy is cut off, it will immediately lose its ability to move.

"That's amazing, you can even observe this." Cangying gave a thumbs up.

"Well," Shi Qing's face was calm, but he raised his head slightly, and in Zhong Lijin's eyes, he could inexplicably see a hint of pride: "I am very strong."

Shen Xiang whispered to Zhong Lijin, "I've already said that she admires the strong."

Zhongli Jin: “…”

*
Now the four are reunited.

Chen Xiang recalled the horrible scene of being held as an experimental subject by Shi Qing and Cangying just now, and subconsciously took a step back and hid behind Zhong Lijin.

Different from the previous pretentiousness when she wanted to be carried by the boy, now she was truly more fearful and alert, pulling the boy's sleeves with both hands.

It would be fine if it was just the second female lead Cangying, but when Shiqing came along, Shen Xiang felt a little scared.

Zhongli Jin: “…”

The young man bowed and withdrew his sleeves, using his spiritual power to clean the place that was stained by Shen Xiang without leaving a trace, leaving only his original blood stains, and bowed to Cangying and Shiqing to thank them: "Senior Sister Cang, Senior Sister Shiqing, thank you for saving me."

"It's okay, as long as everyone is safe." Cangying didn't expect that the boy was actually in this cave, and happened to save the little apprentice sister. Isn't this a great fate? !

Zhong Lijin asked: "How did Senior Sister Cang and Senior Sister Shiqing find this place so quickly?"

The stone paths in the cave were so complex and criss-crossed that they were like a maze. The teleportation talismans had been used up, and no one knew how the two of them had found their way here so quickly.

Cangying pulled up Shiqing's left arm and said, "Oh, this guy's bandage is connected to her five senses, and she has her own spirituality. She remembered the spiritual energy of the junior sister and followed the smell like a puppy. As soon as she found the junior sister, she hurriedly asked us to come and save you."

Chen Xiang thought Zhongli Jin would definitely be grateful to her, and was about to be humble, but unexpectedly, the boy's point did not seem to be here: "... Five senses, connected...?"

The boy was slightly startled, "What do you mean?"

Cangying thought he didn't understand, so she picked up a bandage and stroked it, saying, "The bandage can act as her eyes, nose, and ears, and can also transmit the sense of touch back through contact with something, and also reflect her mood. It's a medium for this guy to communicate with the outside world... Um, Junior Brother Zhongli, what's wrong with you? Your face is a little red, is it too hot?"

Zhongli Jin: “…”

The five senses are connected.

This means that whatever the bandage touches will also be transmitted to Shi Qing's perception.

The feeling of being tightly bound by the bandages that night seemed to surge up again at this moment, from the ankles to the base of the thighs, and then all the way up, across the chest and neck...

——Approximately a hand.

No wonder the other party didn't even look at him when he was behind him. He was able to accurately say his name just after the mask was pulled off by the bandage.

It turned out that it was the "eyes" that saw it at that time through the bandage.

So - his body was actually sensed by Shi Qing?

Same thing just now.

It was just that the situation was urgent and he didn't react.

Looking back now, it seems that the locations where the bandages were wrapped were also somewhat ambiguous.

"..."

This realization made the young man's heart skip a beat. Shame, anger, and hatred all emerged at once. The emotions in his black pupils hidden under his bangs changed rapidly, becoming dark and gloomy, and finally a hint of annoyance flashed across them.

"...Is that so?" Zhongli Jin didn't like other people getting close to him, so it was okay to be touched by the bandage strip. But now that he realized that the thing was actually connected to Shi Qing's five senses... the meaning was different.

When he raised his eyes, the young man's star-like pupils were darker and more angry, and his handsome fair face seemed to be slightly flushed. In the eyes of others at that moment, he looked like a good young wife being bullied by a scoundrel.

Zhongli Jin's gaze quickly swept across Shi Qing's face.

"..." Shi Qing, who was being looked at inexplicably, tilted his head slightly, approached Zhong Lijin, and asked, "What's wrong?"

——I just saved him, did I hurt him accidentally?
"No." Zhongli Jin suppressed the slight anger in his heart. He knew that he shouldn't think about these things now, and tried his best to keep his tone normal. "Junior Sister's foot is injured, and it's not convenient for her to walk."

Cangying said: "It's okay, I'll carry her. What about Junior Brother? Can you still walk?"

It will take some time for the resurrection pill to repair the tendons.

Zhongli Jin can walk now, but every step he takes is accompanied by severe pain.

"Sorry, it still doesn't work. The scales broke my ankle."

This is a bit difficult.

Cangying asked: "How about...let Shiqing carry you?"

After all, they are just an ex-fianced couple, so it should be okay, right?

"No!" Zhongli Jin and Chen Xiang said at the same time.

The boy didn't want to get too close to Shi Qing anymore.

Shen Xiang didn't want the hero to have too much close contact with the vicious female supporting character.

Cangying: “…”

She looked at Shi Qing and was in a dilemma.

Are you so disgusted?
However, the person being disliked didn't care at all, "No problem."

Shi Qing stepped forward, staring at Zhongli Jin and Chen Xiang in a cold and calm voice, raised his head slightly, and said confidently: "Give it to me."

Two seconds later——

Shi Qing walked in front, with four bandages on her limbs, two used to tie up Shen Xiang and hang her in the air, and two used to tie up Zhongli Jin and hang him above.

Zhongli Jin: “…”

Shen Xiang: “…”

Cangying: “…”
