"Bang"
A powerful and heavy blow hit the compound eye of Mantid warrior. The fist armor with anger opened the evil compound eye, allowing Mantid, who was supposed to become a "hero", to fly out. When he landed, he rolled a few times and lost his voice.
Old Chen took a breath.
He looked back at the Monks behind him. The good news was that there were no dead people. Master Shang Xi's strict requirements over the years had made Five Dawn Temple's Monk extremely skilled.
The bad news is that almost everyone is injured.
Aysa·Yunge and Ji·Huozhang took the risk to repel the Lizardfolk thugs who were armed with Mushan. The huge "Galleon" was also driven back into the jungle. However, Ji·Huozhang was stabbed by Lizardfolk's weapon and became unconscious.
His biggest competitor, Aysa, looked after him with a nervous look on his face.
The beach was in a mess, and all the Mantid who attacked were killed, filling the originally peaceful beach with the aura of death, but Old Chen knew that now was not the time to rest.
"Aysa, quickly take the injured to find the tribesmen we left, and go to the northeast. If you get to Zhu Family Village, settle there first."
He shook off the green blood on his fist armor and ordered to his junior:
"I'm going to the other side. Steamwheedle just took the wounded to Temple of the Red Crane. I have to go and have a look."
"Master Chen, Master Shang Xi went over in person."
A Monk came forward and reported:
"Master Shang Xi said before leaving that he would take care of the injured and asked you to protect the tribe."
"No, I'd better go to Temple of the Red Crane."
Old Chen frowned, shook his head and said:
"This jungle gives me a very bad feeling. This group of Mantid also flew from the direction of Temple of the Red Crane. There is one of the four major temples of Pandaren. How could there be a crowd of Mantid?"
Something must have happened!
Master Shang Xi is old and has not fought with others for many years. He may not be able to hold on. You go first, and I will go there alone."
After saying that, Old Chen stood up and left.
But soon he saw a group of lights lighting up in the northeastern sky. After taking a closer look, Old Chen sighed tiredly, and he recognized that it was Sunwing from Diakum. Therefore, the troubled guy was indeed also in Pandaria.
But after feeling tired, I felt a sense of joy again.
Fortunately, this guy is here too. When you encounter trouble, having Vigilant by your side can always give people more courage and hope.
"Don't worry, Fat Bear-Man, your tribe will be escorted by my flock of birds and will soon reach the town called "Zhu Family Village"."
A crow appeared in the flying black feathers and jumped on the stone next to Pandaren. Under the gaze of other Pandaren, the incarnation of Old Anzu spoke human words and said loudly:
"Wisdom Celestial also knows the news of your arrival. Azure Serpent Monk has already rushed over to take care of Wandering Isle's wanderers. You don't have to worry over there. Shen-zin Su was shot back into the deep sea but was not injured. Old Anzu I have been chatting with it.
That old turtle is quite emotionally stable, as stable as an old dog.
It boasted that it was too old to be as knowledgeable as little Mushan, otherwise it would have swallowed that little thing in one gulp. Hey, that's a big bragging! But it also said that it would swim around Pandaria a few times to feel the water in its hometown and look for its "friends" from back then.
Wait until you have had enough shopping at Pandaria before starting again."
This news made Old Chen and the other Monk breathe a sigh of relief. With the protection of Tianzun, there will definitely be no more danger to the tribe. When the Sunwing fell with scorching heat, it turned into a healing Divine Storm and healed the injured Pandaren. In the flames, the tall giant also appeared next to Old Chen.
"Long time no see, Chen."
Diakum said hello.
But now he was wearing Judgment Armor, showing his seriousness, and it wasn't until he took off his helmet that Old Chen felt the gentleness and kindness unique to Vigilant.
When he noticed the unconscious Ji Fire Palm, Dick squatted down and cast Divine Edict on him. The golden holy flame package dispelled the coldness, and Pandaren Monk quickly opened his eyes.
"Bad guy."
Diakum joked in Pandaria language:
"Obviously the injury is not that serious, but you want your sweetheart to stay with you for a while longer. You Pandarens may look simple, but you have quite a lot of bad intentions."
"Uh"
Ji Huozhang blinked his eyes and smiled awkwardly. After watching Vigilant walk towards Old Chen, he turned back to Aysa Yunge, who had blue veins on his face and said:
"Well, Aysa, listen to my excuses."
"Bang"
A rock-shattering blow was accompanied by the screams of instructor Fire-Metal Sect, and amid the laughter of other Pandaren Monk, Ji Fire Palm was really injured this time.
"What? Is the stick I gave you uncomfortable to use?"
Dick glanced at Old Chen's White Tiger Gauntlets who was still stained with blood, and said in surprise:
"No, I specially commissioned Forest Sprite Sage to carve it carefully, and also specially decorated it with my own moral principles with sacred patterns. Don't underestimate that stick, Sun Power is sealed inside. When wielded by a warrior with a burning heart of protection, Solar Storm will be awakened to sweep away the enemies.
You'd better not throw it away, I'll be very sad."
"That's not true. Staff of Dawn I have always regarded it as a treasure."
Old Chen explained:
"Just for some special reasons, I temporarily gave it to my niece for self-defense. Li Li has not been able to learn Monk skills to protect herself."
"Ah?"
Diakum raised his eyebrows and said:
"You gave a child a Monk stick that can attract Solar Storm? Are your Pandaren "parenting methods" so wild?"
Only then did Old Chen react.
He yelled something bad, turned around and rushed in the direction of Temple of the Red Crane like a flying swallow. But before he could run a few steps, he saw a golden pillar of fire bursting out in the jungle ahead.
Just like the "small nuclear explosion" of the Holy Flame.
"Well, it seems that Li Li·Stormstout also has his own protective heart."
Diakum touched his chin and sighed:
"What a heroic tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation!"
"Stop sighing, Li Li is not your Lightforged. When she lights Mantid, she will be burned too."
Old Chen shouted urgently, turned around and rushed into the jungle.
But Vigilant curled his lips, this Monk bumpkin of Five Dawn Temple is just ignorant. Our Holy Light power has always been justified by faith, and we have said that only a protective heart can awaken the holy flame, which will definitely prevent the holder from being burned by Solar Storm.
However, thinking about Li Li·Stormstout's famous "Wild Dog" nickname in the official history, Diakum also felt that it was a bit unsafe to hand over this power to such a naughty little guy.
So he also summoned his own Moon Goddess Sword Reindeer, rode on it and chased Old Chen into the jungle.
The Five Dawn Temple Monks on the beach also wanted to follow, but were soon persuaded to leave by Old Anzu. Anzu's eyes and ears were all over the wind, and Temple of the Red Crane couldn't hide the situation over there.
These Monk are injured and cannot be helped in the past, so they should go to Zhu Family Village to recuperate first.
Yu'lon are all running there to wait. You returning wanderers, don't keep Supreme Celestial Gods waiting in a hurry.
"Wow, the stick Uncle Chen gave me is so powerful."
Li Li·Stormstout looked ahead excitedly. On the chaotic battlefield of Temple of the Red Crane, Master Shang Xi holding Staff of Dawn was "unparalleled" among Mantid.
The golden holy flame surged from the Monk stick, and was turned into a Sacred Flame Azure Dragon by the old Monk and flew around him. He swept across the battlefield like the wind, and Mantid everywhere he went was burned by the holy flame. Even if he barely survived, his wings would be burned and unable to take off.
The Red Crane Monks who originally had a hard time resisting also saw their morale soar under such strong support. They had never seen Master Shang Xi, nor had they seen the strange emblem on the old Monk's robe, but as long as they were Pandaren, they were one of their own.
So they followed Master Shang Xi all the way and fought fiercely, driving those Mantid who tried to rush into Temple of the Red Crane deeper into the jungle.
This is already Mantid's sphere of influence, but because Chi-Ji Chi-Ji is in charge, Temple of the Red Crane is not in danger of falling. However, there must be a reason why Mantid launched the war today.
When Li Li returned to the temple, he saw the host of Temple of the Red Crane scolding Steamwheedle and his Goblins.
"You have to get out of here!"
The old Pandaren wearing a white robe with red clouds Monk scolded sternly:
"You have been invaded by Sha and are haunted by various Devil Obstructions. If you continue to stay here, it will interfere with Chi-Ji's seal on Sha of Doubt. Have you seen those Mantids? They sensed that Sha of Doubt was about to break the seal, so they came to besiege this temple of hope."
"But there's a war going on outside now. If you drive us out, you're leaving us to die."
The one-eyed dragon Goblin captain yelled:
"You Pandarens are so heartless. We were the ones who brought the holy staff and Master Shang Xi. Without him, you wouldn't have been able to stop Mantid's siege. So you are going to drive us away now?"
"Okay, be polite to the locals. They treated us. The most important thing is that they don't charge for it! You guys, free gifts are a supreme virtue!"
Steamwheedle Prince stopped his men from being rude.
Facing this angry host, it had no intention of arguing. If the other party asked them to leave, then leave. Anyway, it had planned to go to the Mogu ruins deep in the jungle to get more Fountain of Youth Water.
Now that Mantid has been defeated, it's a good time to go exploring.
But Pandaren, who was boasting and staring, said that he was haunted by Sha, but Steamwheedle disagreed.
It obviously doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.
It feels great now!
The voice in its heart became clearer and clearer, constantly encouraging it to move towards the peak of business, and it felt that it was in great shape.
After getting some supplies from Monk of Temple of the Red Crane, Steamwheedle Prince took his followers and set out again with confidence, but even Li Li saw the problems of these Goblins.
Their small eyes are surprisingly bright, and what is reflected in them is some kind of desire and greed that is visible to the naked eye.
They all want to make a fortune and will do whatever it takes to do so.
"You'd better stay around here."
Li Li pulled Steamwheedle's sleeve and said to Trade Prince:
"There's something wrong with you. You're too excited. Look at your eyes, which are all bloodshot."
"For wealth chasers, excitement is a must. We cannot waste time. Endless wealth is waiting in front of us."
Steamwheedle's voice was a little hoarse. It moved its throat and said to Li Li:
"I will definitely enter the Xinghai and become the most powerful businessman, and Pandaria is the pinnacle of my career. Thank you for bringing me here, my Pandaren friends, oh, by the way, reward.
I hate that word, it means losing, but maintaining a good relationship with someone worth investing in will help me make more in the future, so.
Consider this an "investment", Li Li."
Trade Prince took out a small bottle of Fountain of Youth water from his arms, paired it with two antique Mogu wine glasses, and stuffed it into the little panda's arms.
It says:
"This is a priceless treasure. If it is valuable, it should be used rationally. Although I don't quite understand how this water works, and most likely it won't be enough to drink it directly. Anyway, please remember to keep this business secret for me."
After saying that, Steamwheedle laughed loudly and rushed into the jungle with the group of excited and excited Goblins, and soon disappeared.
"You guys are really crazy."
Li Li stared dumbfounded at the group of Goblin who were screaming and running to pursue wealth.
She felt a little disgusted and wanted to throw away the bottle in her arms, but in the end she kept it.
This is Steamwheedle's heart, and to be valued so much by a stingy Goblin, this thing might really be the legendary Fountain of Youth Water.
The latest ⊥ little ⊥ talk ⊥ is first posted on ⊥⊥⊥!
"Those little guys with Green Skins skin have fallen into the devil's path and there is no way they can be saved."
The old host of Temple of the Red Crane sighed and said:
"They already have an insatiable desire, and they are filled with the power of Sha. They are losing their minds and may soon fight for gold and silver.
In the past, we would still have tried to cure them.
But today Temple of the Red Crane has reached a critical moment and is really unable to lend a helping hand."
Li Li also sighed.
But then, she curiously looked at the elegant temple in the jungle swamp in front of her, stretched out her hands and clasped her hands to salute the old Pandaren in front of her, and asked in a low voice:
"Does Chi-Ji live here? Can I go and see it? Our Wandering Isle's Pandaren also worships Chi-Ji. Adults say that Chi-Ji is the embodiment of hope."
"Of course, this is the temple of hope, but children, you can't visit it today."
Old Pandaren shook his head and said:
"Chi-Ji is suppressing the dangerous Sha of Doubt below the temple. That is Sha of Despair. It has been suppressed by Tianzun here for ten thousand years. Mantid have always wanted to destroy the seal here, but they have never succeeded.
Today will definitely go through smoothly.
You have come a long way, go and rest in the courtyard first, child."
He was very kind, and even reached out and stuffed Li Li with a piece of candy, which made Li Li feel underestimated. However, she was very sensible and knew that Tianzun was doing business and could not be disturbed, so she returned to Temple of the Red Crane's courtyard.
I was thinking about how to contact Uncle Chen when I suddenly heard a loud noise.
Li Li turned around in surprise, and with wide eyes saw a black and white evil energy erupting from the central temple of Temple of the Red Crane. Many Red Crane Monk shouted and rushed there, but Li Li clearly saw several Mantid escorting something, flying into the sky and disappearing in the chaos of evil energy.
"No! Tianzun was attacked by Mantid. They are too bad."
The red panda hurriedly rushed to the temple.
She actually didn't know what she was going to do, but at this time every Pandaren couldn't turn a blind eye. When she rushed over, the Red Crane Monks had already set up some kind of suppression ceremony here.
Led by the old host, streaks of crimson true energy poured into the air, turning into a beautiful red and white crane flying around the evil energy. It was covered in flame clouds and breathed fire to suppress the black and white evil energy.
"Don't come near!"
A Pandaren Priest in black robe suddenly rushed out and hugged Li Li. She said nervously:
"Chi-Ji was attacked by several Mantid heroes. Those guys took advantage of Tianzun to suppress Sha of Doubt. Now Tianzun has been counterattacked by Sha.
Go quickly!
Before the power of Sha of Doubt is released, get out of here quickly, kid!
Go to Zhu Family Village and ask Mr. Shado-Pan Guard there to send a message to Temple of the Jade Serpent.
Temple of the Red Crane needs support."
Before this gentle woman Pandaren with a hairpin could finish her words, a larger black and white evil energy erupted from the temple, swallowing up all those Pandaren Monk who were maintaining the barrier.
The evil energy was still spreading outwards, Li Li's eyes widened, and he felt at a loss what to do and felt that he was being hugged by his elder sister.
She used her body to try to block Li Li from the invasion of Sha in front of her.
"Li Li, back off!"
At this fatal moment, Master Shang Xi's scolding sounded from behind.
As the Flying Serpent Kick transformed into Azure Dragon infuriating energy flew towards him, the old Monk landed in front of the temple, his eyes wide open, and in the roar of his long-lived eyebrows, he pushed the Staff of Dawn in his hand towards the ground.
The blazing holy flame then erupted, first roaring and tearing apart evil energy like Tiger, and then turning into blazing Solar Storm, spreading outward and burning.
Just like the burning fist of light scattered the incoming Devil Obstruction, it also rescued those Red Crane Monk who were swallowed up.
"Master Shang Xi! Chi-Ji was attacked by Mantid, and it was counterattacked by Sha."
Li Li shouted to the old host of Five Dawn Temple.
Shang Xi's face changed drastically, and he didn't care about anything else. He turned around and rushed into the temple. Li Li also rushed in, followed by Shado-Pan Priest who was wearing black gauze and a bamboo hat.
The three of them went down the long steps of Temple of the Red Crane. In the deepest secret room of the temple, the huge and sacred Chi-Ji Chi-Ji was now wrapped in black and white evil energy.
It's like being swallowed by physical despair.
There is a horrible wound under Chi-Ji's white wings, which was stabbed by Mantid Yingjie with some kind of dangerous weapon.
The holy blood is constantly flowing, and it is precisely because of this weakness that Chi-Ji cannot resist the reverse erosion of Sha of Doubt. But it has suppressed Sha of Doubt here for ten thousand years, and it knows better than anyone else how heavy the power of despair is.
So when resisting the erosion, it still used its own Flame of Hope to weave a red network of light, which suppressed the main body of Sha of Doubt's evil energy in this secret chamber.
"We should help it. It will take time for the other gods to arrive."
Shado-Pan's Priest Yalia·The Holy Word seemed to have made some kind of decision. She took out a golden pill from her arms and said to Master Shang Xi and Li Li:
"I am going to create a secret technique here, which should be able to help Chi-Ji heal his wounds. It is the embodiment of hope. As long as it is healthy, Sha of Despair will not be able to escape from here."
"Girl, what you're holding is dangerous, put it down!"
Master Shang Xi glanced at her and took the pill away as fast as lightning. He shook his head and said:
"Now is not the time for you to choose to sacrifice yourself to save the situation."
"And if it's just for treatment, I have "Fountain of Youth Water" given to me by Steamwheedle! This is a legendary treasure and it will definitely cure Chi-Ji."
Li Li hurriedly took out the small bottle of water and two wine glasses from his backpack. Master Shang Xi raised his eyebrows in surprise, took it and looked at it, then took off the stopper and put it under his nostrils to smell it, shook his head and said:
"No, this spring water does not have the smell of Life Force, but it does have a "magical" effect. I have heard the legend of "Pool of Youth" from the previous island owner. This is not a good thing.
But, it's very suitable to use here."
Old Monk looked at the two wine glasses, one yin and one yang, in his hand. He laughed a few times, then returned the Staff of Dawn in his hand to Li Li, and said to the little girl:
"Tell you Uncle Chen, I don't care whether he wants to stick to the wanderer's path, but Five Dawn Temple must have a host to protect Wandering Isle's safety."
"You can tell him yourself."
Li Li held Master Shang Xi's hand uneasily.
She had a feeling that if she let go, this might be the last time she saw the old man who had watched her grow up.
Old Monk glanced at the wailing Chi-Ji, and then at Li Li who was clutching him tightly.
He showed a relieved smile and said:
"I'm old, kid. I've been going to Staff Forest more and more in recent years. I've been thinking about whether I am a qualified leader of Wandering Isle. But the closer I get to Pandaria, the more I think about the question that once troubled the sages Liu Lang:
How should a Pandaren spend his life?"
The old master shook his head.
He stood up and crushed the wax seal of the golden pill, threw it into his mouth, waved his hand to Li Li and Yalia·The Holy Word and said:
"Driven by that question, the Liu Lang sage left his hometown and became the bravest Pandaren to set foot outside the fog. He became the first island owner of Wandering Isle.
I am also an island owner and I also want to answer this question.
It's like we finally returned to Pandaria after thousands of years of wandering, only to find that our hometown is not as beautiful as we imagined. What decision should we make?
Do you want to use your own hands to restore peace to your hometown?
Or should we board Wandering Isle and go back to live our peaceful life with the loss?
When I returned to my hometown, I should do something for this place.
Pandaria No matter how bad things are, this will always be our home.
Go ahead.
Go outside and protect me, children."
Li Li and Yalia were almost driven out of the basement by Master Shang Xi.
Then, the old Monk straightened Five Dawn Temple's Monk robe. He stretched out his hand to tear open the protection arranged by Chi-Ji, and stepped inside with the Fountain of Youth and two wine glasses.
As soon as he entered it, a terrifying aura of despair came over him, suppressing old Pandaren's mind and trying to defeat him.
But old Monk's strength greatly increased under the stimulation of Shado-Pan's secret medicine, and he shattered the incoming illusion of Sha with one punch.
He rushed to Chi-Ji's side.
He felt the trembling body of this powerful deity, which was falling into despair due to weakness, but Flame of Hope was still burning.
It just needs a little "firewood".
Old Monk dropped Fountain of Youth Water into two cups, and then continued to attack those Red Crane Monks who were invaded and controlled by Sha of Doubt.
He roared loudly:
"Pandaria wanderer, Wandering Isle wanderer old Shang Xi has returned home, Chi-Ji, don't despair, we will always walk side by side with you."
