Crossing the Sword

Chapter 51: Another Strike

Gonggong can be called the God of Water. His Weak Water Sutra is naturally powerful. For example, this water escape technique is more than one or two levels stronger than any escape technique Ye Shisan knows. The other five elements escape techniques basically require water escape in water, and earth escape in soil... But the water escape in this Weak Water Sutra is extremely powerful. No matter where you are, whether in water, soil, or even in the air, as long as there is a little water, you can escape!

What impressed him most was a sentence in the scripture: "Deserts, volcanoes and other special areas have little water. If you escape there, you will consume a little more mana." This means that no matter how scarce the water is, as long as there is water, you can escape! At most, you will consume a little more spiritual power.

After a while, Ye Shisan had already moved dozens of miles away. He stopped when he felt that his internal strength was a little weak. Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly set up restrictions and sat cross-legged to meditate and recover his strength.

This time he was surprised and delighted. It turned out that after the baptism of the Thunder Prison, Ye Shisan's water magic power actually absorbed a lot of lightning energy. Looking inside, he could see that there were sparks of electricity flashing on the surface of the two golden pills in Dantian and Nigongwan. At this moment, the water energy in his body did not exclude this outsider, but got along very well with it. This small part of the gold energy had been completely absorbed by him.

What surprised him even more was that gold gave birth to water, and under the effect of the electric current, his two golden pills actually became much purer and stronger. After only practicing for a short while, the meridians damaged by lightning had healed as before.

With a thought, he unlocked the restriction. Just as he was about to open his eyes, he heard a woman screaming, "Ghost!"

Ye Shisan had time to check the surroundings. He was in a wheat field, and in front of him was a young village girl holding a hoe, weeding. She was also very pretty, and although she was not as pretty as the top beauties like Jingwei and Tiannvba, she had a more simple beauty. But her eyes were looking at him in horror, as if she had really seen a ghost.

Ye Shisan was very depressed. Although he was not extremely handsome, at least he would not be associated with those supernatural creatures. The village girl in front of him looked good, but she was too rude.

Staring at the village girl with dissatisfaction, Ye Shisan politely retorted: "Miss, you are wrong. I am not one yet."

"Ah!" The village girl covered her mouth and apologized immediately: "I'm sorry, I was rude just now. Why did you come to my field?"

Ye Shisan then realized that he had trespassed into someone else's field without permission and was not very polite. He smiled and said, "I was just attacked by a gangster and was injured. I was temporarily looking for a place to practice my internal energy to heal my wounds. I didn't expect to enter your field by mistake. Please don't be offended, young lady." Seeing the other party apologize, he didn't care about being called a "ghost" just now.

But when the village girl saw him smiling, she looked even more terrified. She was already pale with fear. She stammered, "Yes, I'm sorry, it's okay..." Incoherent may be the most appropriate way to describe her current behavior.

Ye Shisan became even more depressed, wondering if his appearance was really that scary. In doubt, he used his magic power to conjure up an ice mirror, and when he looked at it, he was even shocked.

It was no wonder that the village girl was so afraid of him. She had been electrocuted in the Thunder Prison and her whole body was black, just like an African native. Now her wounds had healed, and the blackened skin had fallen off, revealing a new layer of skin, as smooth as a baby's. But the black skin had not fallen off completely, and more than half of it was still hanging on her face. Her face was black and white. If she said she looked like a ghost, even the ghosts would cry out in injustice.

Knowing that he had wronged the other party, Ye Shisan seemed a little embarrassed, but also puzzled. Is this village girl really so brave? She didn't run away immediately in such a state? After a closer look, he found that the village girl's legs were shaking, and she couldn't even run away.

Seeing her like that, Ye Shisan felt sorry for her and said, "Actually, I became like this during the battle. Don't be afraid, girl. I am a human, not a ghost, and I will not hurt you." As he said that, he stood up and took a step forward. He put his right hand on the village girl's shoulder and injected a stream of pure internal force into her body.

As the power entered her body, the village girl immediately felt a warm current flowing into her body. With the help of the water magic, her body finally regained its flexibility. But she did not run away immediately. She opposed Ye Shisan and asked, "Are you a magic practitioner?" It seemed that she knew something about magic, and did not take the ice mirror as a ghost's magic.

Ye Shisan nodded, which was considered as his agreement.

The village girl finally recovered and was no longer afraid of Ye Shisan. She said politely, "Thank you for your help, uncle. My brother has also practiced magic, so he has some knowledge of magic. I am Dingxiang, what is your name, uncle?"

"Uh..." Ye Shisan couldn't help but feel depressed again after hearing this. This Ding Xiang really has a talent for attacking people. Just now he called me a ghost, and now he called me uncle. Am I really that mature? Or is Jingwei right? I am really a 21-year-old with a 60-year-old heart?

Shaking off the messy thoughts in his head, Zhang Tianya smiled bitterly and said, "My name is Ye Shisan, but the girl is wrong again. I am only twenty-one years old. Seeing that the girl is fine, I will take my leave first." It would be better to leave quickly. Ye Shisan didn't want to suffer any more blows.

"Sir, wait a minute." He wanted to leave, but the other party tried to persuade him to stay, "You look like this... Well, my home is not far from here anyway, so you can come to my house to wash up before you set off. I'm sorry for offending you just now, so I'll take this as my apology to you." That's not right. Dingxiang sounded so generous and decent, which didn't sound like the quality of a country girl. You have to know that the education system of this era was similar to that of the feudal society.

He also said that his younger brother had learned magic, but is magic something that an ordinary farm kid could learn?

However, he did not doubt that Dingxiang had ulterior motives. After so many things, he still had some confidence in his ability to judge people. If Dingxiang was really acting, then her acting skills would be the best. However, after thinking about it, he still declined politely: "Don't bother me. I'll just find a small river to wash myself." After all, agreeing rashly like this would not be good for the girl's reputation.

Dingxiang also tactfully said, "In that case, I won't force you to stay." After a pause, she added, "But are you really only twenty-one years old? You look..." She felt something was not right and stopped listening immediately.

Ye Shisan looked up to the sky in silence. This was the third blow.
