Chapter Twenty-Six: The Kirin
As soon as the sky was shining, He Shu was already dressed and waiting for Lin Xi in the hall of the Jade Grass Hall.
"You're here," he said, Lin Xi's eyes were still drooping, and he didn't look like he had woken up.
"You're so early, well, will the two of us go up the mountain to collect medicine today?"
He said: "Yes, let's go", he walked in front, Lin Xi always felt that this person was a little weird when he followed behind, when he used to see him, he always obeyed his orders in his father's mansion, but in the jade grass hall, he felt that he was polite and courteous, and he hid it deeply.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, could He Shu have always been the person of the Three Princes. When Jue chose to visit the Lin Mansion, he saw through his tricks at a glance, could it be that his ghost eyes were superb? Or did he know everything about everyone in the Lin Mansion, if there was an insider, then this person was He Shu.
In short, yesterday the third prince personally came to the Jade Grass Hall, there must be something unspeakable. What kind of medicine must be sold in the gourd when going up the mountain this time? Lin Xi thought about the scene when the three princes came to the Jade Grass Hall yesterday.
"Lin Xi, what are you thinking?" He Shu suddenly called her full name, and Lin Xi's whole body suddenly tightened, is it going to tear her up?
"I have known you since I was a child, you are the daughter of the Lin Mansion, every year when I go to the Lin Mansion in the south of Caiyun, I will see you, and I will see you grow up overnight. ”
They continued to walk in the direction of the back mountain, He Shu walked in front, and Lin Xi followed, keeping a distance of two meters away.
"Why didn't you recognize me? Why didn't you say it earlier? So did you tell your father that I was here with you?" Lin Xi began to interrogate the eldest lady like a machine gun according to her temper.
"Yes, Lord Lin knows, how can there be a father in the world who doesn't love his children. ”
"But he has a lot of children! a little, a little, and it's nothing for me. Lin Xi kicked the stone on the ground, and the small stone rolled and rolled, and one rolled to He Shu's feet.
"The Third Prince knows you're coming. Almost at the foot of the mountain, he turned his head, "No matter how hard you try to hide you? You are still discovered, what should I do? ”
"What did my father say?" Lin Xi thought that what this person said must not be fully believed, so let's follow his train of thought.
"My lord has a hunch that Miss will be discovered by the three princes in Kyoto sooner or later, and if it is destiny, it is inevitable that she will be free. He said calmly, "Okay, miss", He Shu turned around and made a way, this time you will go up the mountain alone, He Shu can only be sent here,"
Lin Xi felt that the rhythm was wrong, she often came to this mountain, although she climbed halfway up the mountain every time, but it was also familiar, why did He Shu feel a bit like sending herself to Huangquan Road this time?
"On the mountain behind this, according to the master's orders, there is a unicorn that your mother saved back then. Qilin Town Mountain, so there is a miasma of smoke above the mountain, and there is a miasma, and ordinary people can't go up the mountain. “
"Wait, first of all, what did the unicorn that my mother saved do to me, and secondly, why do I have to go up the mountain?" Lin Xi retorted.
"The third prince said that if he couldn't get the herbs on the top of the mountain, he would still come to the Jade Grass Hall tomorrow. He Shu explained.
"So you mean that the third prince wants me to go up the mountain to pick herbs, which is actually a gimmick, in fact, you want me to go and greet the unicorn raised by my mother, is that what you mean?" Lin Xi chattered, continuing to play with the stones under his feet, and when he looked up, He Shu had already walked away, and he didn't seem to have the intention to answer Lin Xi's question. But Lin Xi confirmed three points, first of all, He Shu's martial arts are unfathomable, and his mind is the same, otherwise it is possible to go so far in a blink of an eye, in fact, his father has long known that he is in Kyoto, and he has turned a blind eye, and in the end, the third prince just wanted to take him back and come to find Qilin.
Anyway, my father doesn't love my mother, my future husband doesn't like it, the hard-working Lin Xi, she sighed, now there is only one road left in Huashan, go, Qilin Qilin, I've been here so many times, you come out to Huihui me.
Today, the miasma on the mountain was particularly serious, and Lin Xi felt difficult to breathe after walking a few steps. Finally crossed the defensive line halfway up the mountainside, there was a sense of frustration that I couldn't see my fingers, could it be that I was in an illusion, Lin Xi had a thought that suddenly flashed to the past, if fate destined me to find the unicorn and break it for love, I wouldn't die here now.
She used the blue bead hairpin, chanting a spell, and lit up a faint blue light, but here the power was greatly weakened.
Just keep walking and walking, time seems to be suspended here, but the physical strength is always being consumed. She made a desperate bet and used the blue bead hairpin to emit a backlight to the sky, this is the illusion enchantment of the elf master, which can devour the obstacles set by others, but it will also devour her own spiritual power.
As soon as the blue light came out, it finally spread from the faint spark into a blue pillar of light again and again, illuminating the surroundings, and sure enough, it was almost to the top of the mountain, where the weeds were overgrown, but there was a kind of grass that was particularly amazing, the fiery red was like a raging fire, it was the Xuanling grass, this grass felt like it couldn't be pulled out with her bare hands, she turned into a bubble with the help of the dew on the weeds, surrounded the Xuanling grass, and then used the mage to mention it vigorously, the bubble broke, and she stumbled a little.
Xuanling grass grows a bit like the herbs in the mansion at that time in three thousand zhang, is it an attribute, fed with blood, and suffered. I don't know when these eight words floated into her head, maybe it was a herbal medicine book in Lin Shangde's house, or where she heard it. As if she heard the call of fate, she bit her finger herself, and the blood dripped on the Xuanling Grass, and the fire was extinguished at once. She took advantage of the situation to collect the Xuanling grass with her hands, but at this time, the ground shook, and she had been rolling back along the path she came from like a hairball, fainting.
Zihan suddenly appeared in front of him, his expression was solemn, "Why don't you care for yourself so much?" he scolded her, but his tone was soft. When Lin Xi opened his eyes, he didn't know how long he had been asleep, and after a while, he realized that he was still on the mountain.
He carried Lin Xi on his back, the mountain road was steep, he grabbed the vine grass and moved slowly, estimating that he had to go down like this until the sun went down, and Lin Xi on his back began to mutter, "Why do you follow me?" You say, do you miss me?"
Lin Xi's breath was weak, and he continued to hold on with a smile, "Awake, but it's okay, don't leave me behind! Or I've broken my brain and hallucinated, that's fine, don't go."
Zi Han was stunned.
The frozen sword was unsheathed, he muttered a spell in his mouth, the cedar trees and trees on both sides of the mountain road in front of him evaporated water droplets, water condensed and frosted, and the mountain road instantly turned into a winding frozen road, he took Lin Xi from behind with one hand and dragged her waist with the other, and slowly moved in front of him, this girl is now hot and weak, and her lips have turned lilac. His brows tightened, and once again the clouds and rain in the frozen sky were frozen, with water as the base and ice as a tool, and the road directly under their feet set up a rainbow-like rainbow, reaching the bottom of the mountain, and he just took her like this, gliding into the road, ready to vent to the end.
He borrowed clouds and rain, moved plants and trees, and in this unfathomable place in Kyoto, he alarmed the people of the five tribes with evil intentions.
For example, Yu Ze saw this strange weather, and his heart was even more determined, the White Demon Clan was not dead and had already arrived in Kyoto, and the Red and White War was about to break out.
The glacial avenue is crystal clear, and it is strong and tenacious. When they glided into the air, they suddenly heard a wail in the abyss, the frequency of the wailing sound was strange, as if it was an alien sound, this range was probably not heard by everyone, the kind of wail did not come from humans, as if it was the howl of a trapped beast, lonely and desperate fighting.
The power of the sun, the void of white foam, change!
That kind of wail hit Zi Han directly into the depths of his heart, and he had heard this sound, that kind of vibration in his vague memory.
The pressure of that aura was very great, and the whole valley vibrated with the cry of the tiger roaring ape, and saw the leaves of the trees swaying and undulating, and the road between the valleys seemed to be about to crack, and the glacial road was gradually shattering, and the cracks spread outward in bursts, like a grid of spider webs.
Zi Han looked at Lin Xi in his arms, his face was pale, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead, the whole person should be prostration, how could he not walk in this posture? The branch road was completely broken, and the debris was heard as they fell down the mountain.
Since Lin Xi was already in a semi-comatose state, Zihan held Lin Xi in one hand and the Xuanbing Sword in the other. The movements were really not agile enough, there was a sharp mountain flute in front of him, in order not to let Lin Xi get hurt, he had to block it with his arm, otherwise he would rub against her. Blood was gradually left on that arm. He grabbed Fujiman with his hand, and luckily, finally stood firm on the edge of the mountainside, and looked at the posture that could only lie dormant on this mountainside first.
The wail grew closer. The white miasma in the distance was suddenly slowly covered by red and purple smoke, and an unknown object came to them all the way from the top of the mountain, kicking and moving quickly, and it didn't take long for it to come to them, yes, Qilin.
That unicorn, emitting a puff of red and purple smoke, could it be the unicorn beast, a divine beast of the Red Demon clan?
The unicorn looked at Zi Han's gaze, which changed from the fierce and evil at the beginning to a gradual soft light, as if he had seen a former best friend.
It roared in the sky, thunder and sorrow, heartbreaking, as if it contained a lot of emotions, but the words could not be transformed into any language.
