Chapter 15: Immortals
At the beginning of the day, Xian Meng was pulled up by Yun Yue in a sleepy haze.
Looking around at the deserted field, smoke slowly rose from under a tree, but it was Gu Yuanbai who took out a rice pot from the storage ring and was boiling porridge.
It was the first time for Xian Meng to see Gu Yuanbai's cannibalistic side, and she smiled and grinned, "Fourth Senior Brother, can you add some of yesterday's dried meat to it?"
Gu Yuan's white hand paused, and a small piece of jerky appeared in his hand, and he took a knife to cut it down little by little, and after a while, an attractive porridge fragrance wafted out of the pot.
Xian Meng licked her lips and said greedily, "It would be better if there was ham made by the sixth senior sister." ”
Gu Yuanbai glanced at Xian Meng, his palm turned over again, and a small piece of ham appeared in his hand, which was also cut down by him with a knife.
Xian Meng opened her mouth wide, "Is the fourth senior brother's storage bag a treasure chest?!"
Not far away, Yun Yue heard Xian Meng exclaim and laughed, "These are the ones that your sixth senior sister gave him before leaving, you can ask again, there are a lot of things in it." ”
Xian Meng exclaimed again, and pulled the corner of Gu Yuan's white clothes, "Then I also want dried vegetables, salted egg whites and a little meat floss." ”
Yun Yue, "......" slapped his thigh and laughed, "You really said it." ”
Smiling helplessly, Gu Yuanbai took out the bag that Yu Xiaoxiao handed him from the storage bag and handed it to Xianmeng, "Take what you want to eat yourself, and return it to me when you turn around." After thinking about it, he said, "Sixth Senior Sister is afraid that you won't be able to eat enough, so I'll leave it to me." Sounds like an explanation of the previous sentence.
Xian Meng stuck out her tongue, "Got it." ”
After eating breakfast and going on the road, it didn't take long for the boundary monument of Xiaxi Village to appear in front of him.
Xian Meng narrowed her eyes, and her eyes froze when she fell above Xiaxi Village.
There were patches of black miasma, covered in ink, with swirling filaments spreading continuously, interspersed with dark green unidentified objects.
"Looks like we're underestimating the power of the monsters. Yun Yue also saw the vision, and said with a solemn face, "Go in and have a look." ”
"I'll go ahead. "Gu Yuanbai's Qi refining is at the peak of the seventh layer, close to the eighth layer, and the cultivation of the three is the highest.
Yun Yue nodded, "It's okay, your sword qi should be the most lethal to monsters." After speaking, he raised his hand and touched Xianmeng's head, "Are you afraid of the little junior sister?"
Xian Meng shook her head with black lines. Hey, I like to treat her like a child at such times.
Walking through the boundary monument, there is a bridge at the entrance of the village, the river flows quietly under the bridge, and the traces of people trampling can be seen on the stones along the stream, which should be the women in the village who often wash here.
"Senior brother, look at that!" Xian Meng looked left and right, suddenly fixed his gaze under the bridge, and gasped, "Is that human?"
No, it can't be said to be a person, it should be a corpse, soaking wet, face down in water, looking like it has been soaked for many days from the body, already swollen.
As soon as Xianmeng's words fell, there were footsteps from the village, fragmented, as if a large number of people were coming out.
The leader was an old man in the twilight, but his hands and feet were sharp, and he was stunned when he saw Gu Yuanbai and the others.
"Village chief, that, is that my family?!" a woman's sharp voice drew the old man's attention.
"Go down and have a look!" the village chief said to a few middle-aged men.
After the corpse was pulled up, not only was the body swollen, but the face was also very watery, the face was blue and black, and the eyes were protruding and could not be closed, as if he had seen something extremely terrible before his death.
"It's him, it's my family, it's still ......," the woman cried out and fainted, and two women wept and came up and pulled her away.
At this time, Yun Yue stepped forward, "Can you let me take a look?"
The old man looked at Yun Yue for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice, "People outside the village, if you are just passing by, it is better to leave as soon as the sky is still dark, our village ......" sighed, "I am cursed, if I don't go, I will be implicated." ”
Yun Yue was puzzled, "Why did my husband say this? Isn't someone here before?"
"It's a big immortal, and he said that he could help us get rid of the monsters in the village. A man in the back answered.
"Nonsense, what kind of immortal, it's clearly a god stick who cheats money, but the demon didn't get rid of it, and he put his life into it!"
"Don't say a word!" the old man scolded, and the others were silent and stopped talking.
A few strong men carried the body back to the village, and several women followed, leaving only a few people to stay with the old man.
"You've seen the situation, too. Although he was surprised why these people in front of him were indifferent when they saw the corpse, the old man still reminded, "Leave quickly before it gets dark, and it will be too late for the monster to appear." After finishing speaking, she couldn't help but look at Xian Meng twice, this girl who looked less than ten years old, there was no trace of fear on her face, amazing.
Yun Yue and Gu Yuanbai glanced at each other, and the former said to the old man, "It's not a secret, we are entrusted by someone to come for this matter." ”
The old man was startled, suddenly thought of something, and the corners of his mouth squirmed and said uncertainly, "Are you immortals on Canghua Mountain?" Yes, yes, it must be, these three people are so good-looking, and when they get closer, they even have a little less chest tightness in the past few days, they must be immortals.
Yun Yue's palm flipped over, and a water ball condensed from his palm, which slowly deformed and turned into a jade plaque for the person who came to the sect to ask for help.
"Immortal, immortal! Hey, this is my Li family's heirloom!" the old man grabbed Yun Yue excitedly, "My son, how ......is my son?"
Yun Yue looked at the longing in the old man's eyes, didn't know how to comfort him, and shook his head after a while, "When he arrived on the mountain, he was already hanging on his last breath, and we were powerless to return to the sky, please mourn the old man." ”
The old man's hands froze, and muddy tears flowed from his eyes, and he muttered to himself, "I guessed when he let him go out, and if he can ask the immortal to come back, my son can be regarded as doing a great meritorious thing." ”
"Quick, three immortals, please come in. The old man wiped away the tears on his face, raised his hand to bring in Yun Yue and the three of them, and turned his head to the people around him, "You go and inform the rest of the village and let them gather in the open space." ”
"Okay, let's go right away. A few bystanders were also excited, shouting as they ran, "The immortals are here, the immortals are here to save us!"
None of them doubted the identity of the three people who suddenly arrived, because Yun Yue's hand was condensed just now, and the level was enough to shake off the magic stick that could only draw talismans a few days ago.
As for why the three of them are so young, one of them looks like he is not yet ten years old - nonsense, because he is an immortal!
