Chapter 12: Di Ying
"I see. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Mu Ying nodded, her eyes looked at the white trouser legs, as if they had been torn by something, and they had become ragged strips of cloth.
"There are wild beasts in this place?" Mu Ying turned her head to look at Yan Ye.
"Nope." Yan Ye shook his head, "Even the birds don't land here." ”
"Got it." Mu Ying nodded, "You go back to the village to call someone, and carry him back first." ”
"Okay." Yan Ye nodded, turned his head and ran towards the village, but unexpectedly his feet were weak and he fell to the ground.
"I'm scared." Mu Ying smiled and touched Yan Ye's head, took out a piece of jerky from his sleeve robe and handed it to him, "Here, let's eat and go." ”
"What is this?" Yan Ye took the jerky in Mu Ying's hand and looked at it curiously.
"......" Mu Ying was stunned, "This is dried meat, pork is dried to dry the water." Why, haven't you seen it? ”
Yan Ye looked at Mu Ying and shook his head, then looked at the jerky in his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed, his eyes lit up.
"Haha, let's go." Looking at Yan Ye's novelty, Mu Ying smiled.
"Good!" Yan Ye nodded heavily, and then ran out of the forest without looking back.
Looking at Yan Ye's somewhat bumpy little figure, Mu Ying shook her head and smiled, and with a flip of her palm, the Demon Spirit Hundred Objects Spectrum emerged.
"Ying Sulong, come out?" Mu Ying said to the portrait of a thin-eyed white fox on the homepage.
"Brother Demon Master, why is he so unfamiliar with people...... coquettish voice came out of the book, and then, a white light directly penetrated the void, turned into a soft and delicate body, and appeared in Mu Ying's arms.
"Calling people by name, my brother is so ruthless." Ying Sulong wrapped her arms around Mu Ying's neck, frowned lightly, and opened her mouth to say angrily.
Mu Ying, who was teased by the fragrance that rushed straight to the tip of her nose, touched her nose, "Then what should I call you." ”
"Call someone Sulong~" Ying Sulong narrowed her beautiful eyes and whispered in Mu Ying's ear, "Or dear can also be oh~"
"Answer me a question first." Mu Ying pushed Ying Sulong away with a smile, stretched out her hand and pointed to the giant tree on the side and asked, "Do you recognize it?" ”
"Huh?" Ying Sulong was diverted by Mu Ying's fingers, and a pair of blue eyes looked at the giant tree covered with emerald green water droplets. After looking at it for a long time, he said with some uncertainty: "This is... Diying? ”
"Diying? Is it a youkai? ”
"A low-level demon race that lives by absorbing the vitality of all things, except for plants and trees. On weekdays, it will exude vitality and be blessed in all directions. Ying Sulong looked straight at the towering giant tree with her eyes, "But I... I've never seen a community of this scale......"
"There is no snow here, is it also because of that drop of Ying?" Mu Ying asked.
"It should be." Ying Sulong nodded, and sniffed the humid air around her with the tip of her nose, "But it's not that the snow doesn't fall, but it melts." ”
"But the surface is dry." Mu Ying gently picked up a little dust with her toes, and the pitch-black soil instantly rose to a height of more than a foot, and scattered it in a chaotic manner, without the slightest dampness.
"Perhaps... It's obscured by these canopies. Ying Sulong shook her head a little uncertainly, "The sunlight can't even penetrate through this forest, and the snow water may be absorbed before it flows down the leaves." ”
Mu Ying looked up overhead, the cascading canopy of trees obscured all the paths of sunlight, leaving the forest dark. If you want to know the details, you have to cut down the canopy.
Just thinking about it, some noisy voices suddenly sounded from outside the forest, Mu Ying glanced at Ying Sulong, the latter understood, and her delicate body turned into a white ray and drilled into the demon spirit spectrum, and the golden light on Mu Ying's wrist flashed, and the whole forest fell silent again.
"Big brother, big brother......" Yan Ye's immature voice came from a distance.
"Why did you get here on your own?" Mu Ying looked at the thin little figure of Yan Ye in the distance and blinked.
Yan Ye carried a small lantern and stumbled in front of Mu Ying, his face was gray again, and he thought that he had fallen a lot, but the candle flame in the lamp was not extinguished, and I don't know how he did it.
"Uncles don't come in outside, let's carry Uncle Lubai out!" Yan Ye said in a childish voice.
"Got it."
Mu Ying nodded, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and lifted Lu Bai lying on the ground along with the tree trunk on his chest, "You lead the way, I'll follow behind." ”
"Big brother, you have so much strength, so you don't need me." Yan Ye's eyes widened, and his tone was full of amazement.
"Well, you just need to lead the way." Mu Ying smiled and nodded, and raised her chin towards the road when Yan Ye came, "Let's go." ”
"Yes!" Yan Ye patted his chest like a little adult, and then ran in front with the lantern upside down, occasionally afraid that Mu Ying would not be able to see the road, so he shone the lantern towards Mu Ying's feet.
"Don't worry about me, you can go first." Mu Ying also has some love for this little boy in her heart, seeing that he is not very old, but he is well-behaved and tight.
"Oh." Hearing this, Yan Ye nodded, and his steps sped up a little, and Mu Ying also slightly condensed spiritual power on the soles of his feet, floating on the ground without a trace, avoiding those intertwined tree roots and vine grasses.
After a few breaths, the two of them walked out of the forest, Mu Ying slightly adapted to the light, and also saw a few strong men outside the forest, they were all carrying stretchers and holding water, and when they saw Mu Ying and the two coming out, they hurriedly greeted them.
"You are the great immortal that Yan Ye said." A man with a rather honest appearance took a few steps forward, bowed to Mu Ying with some restraint, and said, "You personally went to the danger to rescue Brother Lubai, and we thank you on behalf of the whole village." ”
Led by this man, the others also saluted Mu Ying in unison.
"No need." Mu Ying handed the Lu Bai in her arms to the men, and the almost dry body was covered by the branches, and now it was revealed, which also scared the surrounding people.
"Big... Daisen... You say... Is he just exposed? The man at the head swallowed his saliva, looked at Lu Bai in Mu Ying's arms with stunned eyes, and stretched out his hands tremblingly.
"That's right." Mu Ying nodded, put the exposed white body on the man's outstretched arm, and pressed the body together with the weight of the branches, the man didn't even frown before taking it, and Mu Ying raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Alas. The village chief had already said that this place was occupied by mountain ghosts, and we all advised him, but he did not listen. The man sighed, stretched out his hand, and probed Lu Bai's faint snort, and his rough tiger eyebrows were all twisted together.
"It's not a mountain ghost, it's a monster." Mu Ying smiled.
"What? Monster? The man looked up suddenly.
"Hmm." Mu Ying nodded sloppily, and responded, "You go back with Yanye, I will help the village hold this monster." ”
"Really?" Several people around were shocked when they heard this, and their faces were flushed with excitement.
"Well, don't worry."
"Engong, I don't know how many descendants of this demon have eaten in the village since its birth, if you can really catch this demon for the village, our whole village will set up an ancestral hall for Engong for generations, and worship it forever!" Hearing Mu Ying's affirmative answer, the people around him knelt on the snow excitedly, with tears in their eyes, and even Yan Ye knelt down towards Mu Ying with a touch of hatred in their eyes.
"Wait a minute..."
Just as Mu Ying was about to help everyone up, a voice came suddenly......
