Chapter 19: The River of Nightmares

River of Zombie Dreams

Akiba Bai felt like she was having a dream, a weird dream.

In her dream, she seemed to have returned to her thirteen-year-old youth, followed her master Lao Xian all the way, and left Jiangnan to Dayao Mountain in southern Xinjiang.

She was young and playful, and knew that Miao people were good at hunting in the mountains, so she asked her master to go hunting in the mountains, Gu King and the master were close friends, and she was also happy to see that she was young and cute Yuxue, so she was allowed to play and hunt in the mountains.

There are many miasma in the mountains of the Miao family, many strange insects, many strange flowers and trees, and more rare birds and beasts, so the Gu King asked several of her personal disciples in the village to accompany her into the mountain, lest if something happens to her, it is not easy to explain to the master.

One of them is Gu Wang's own daughter Xiao Na, who is only in her early tens, born as delicate as a pear blossom on the ridge, with bright eyes and a small mouth, extremely cute, especially with white skin that is better than pear blossoms, not at all like the Miao girl in the perennial sun in the south.

Because she learned a lot of Chinese from her aunt, Gu Wang asked her daughter to follow Qiu Yebai as a translator. (i.e., the translation of later generations, the ancient translation was the general translation)

She began to dress as a man since she was a child, and she was used to calling herself a teenager, and suddenly saw that there was a little girl in the teenager who rarely knew some Chinese, and she was born extremely beautiful and shy, so she was naturally happy in her heart.

The other Miao teenagers Xu only occasionally talked to Qiu Yebai because they respected Xiao Chi's identity, but they didn't dare to talk to Chi very much.

Autumn leaves white did not have these constraints, so he followed the little girl all the way, with the lame Miao dialect she had just learned to make her laugh, the little girl always lowered her head and pouted her pink little mouth and smiled shyly, like a pretty pear blossom on the branches, seeing Autumn Leaves Bai's heart was comfortable, so she wanted to please the beautiful little girl, and wanted to hunt her a rare and precious prey!

The other Miao teenagers heard it, and when they saw Qiu Yebai's thin body, one of them smiled and said: "Ah Bai, don't boast, there are many rare birds and beasts in this Dayao Mountain, but where will you Han people hunt any precious prey, not to mention that Dayao Mountain is the home of the mountain god, and only our Miao family can be allowed to hunt precious prey, if you really want to give Princess A-Na something, go hunt a little fox or rabbit!" ”

Everyone else chimed in.

She was young and vigorous at that time, where did she know that in fact, the young people of the Miao family were not just laughing at her, after all, she was a guest of the Gu King, and it was more of a kind reminder.

So she sneered and took off her bow and arrow from her back: "Yes, then try it." ”

When she hunted a tiger at the age of eleven, these little children would only catch fish and shrimp in the river.

Then, she looked at Xiao Chi on the side and waved her hand: "Xiao Chi, what do you want, just say it?" ”

Koike pursed his lips and smiled shyly, shook his head, and didn't reply.

A young man from the Miao family smiled and said in broken Chinese: "Xiao Chi is the saint of the future, she doesn't have any good things in the mountains, Ah Bai, just catch a fox or something?" ”

Akiba Bai glanced at him: "You're not Koike, can you call the shots for Koike?" ”

The young man was choked by her in an instant, and he stopped his mouth.

Akiba Bai looked at Xiao Chi: "Xiao Chi, you say, you say it quickly, Brother Bai will definitely hunt it for you." ”

Koike still shook his head and waved his hand.

Akiba Bai thought that Koike didn't believe him, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, Koike said, just take it as a meeting gift from Brother Bai." ”

Seeing that Qiu Ye Bai was so persistent, Xiao Chi seemed to be a little helpless, so he said softly: "The things in the mountains, Xiao Chi has never seen them, only Bai Jiuyin." ”

As soon as Koike's words came out, the young man's face changed instantly, and he looked at Koike in disbelief.

Akiba Bai didn't notice the frightened faces of the teenagers, and asked with some curiosity, "What is Bai Jiuyin?" ”

"Koike!" The boy who spoke up for the first time suddenly spoke up and tried to stop Koike.

Xiao Chi looked at him and didn't speak, and Akiba Bai glanced at the young man angrily: "Ah, don't scare Xiao Chi." ”

The young man named Ah Na looked at Xiao Chi, who was bowing his head, and shook his head helplessly: "Xiao Chizi is a saint, how dare I scare Xiao Chi, but ...... Anyway, don't ask, Koike will say that, and he doesn't want you to walk around in the mountains casually. ”

Seeing that everyone wanted to say something, Qiu Ye Bai snorted lightly, turned around and took Xiao Chi's hand: "Xiao Chi, Xiao Chi, you tell Brother Bai, what is Bai Jiuyin?" ”

Xiao Chi stiffened, his head lowered even more, his face was red, and he looked around with some embarrassment, and then said softly: "Bai Jiuyin is a kind of dragon, you Han people call Candle Dragon, tens of millions of years ago, it came from the north, was injured by the wizard of the north, fell in the Dayao Mountain, rescued by the mountain god, inhabited the Dayao Mountain, faded a red wounded skin, the whole body is snow-white, very beautiful. ”

Autumn leaves were pale for a moment, and instantly sighed a little helplessly: "It turned out to be a myth, Xiao Chi, I know you're worried about Brother Bai, but you don't have to make up a deceptive thing, right?" ”

The candle dragon is also known as the candle nine yin, the human face and the snake body, red, thousands of miles long, open the eyes for the day, close the eyes for the night, exhale for the winter, and then exhale for the summer, calling the wind and calling the rain, this kind of human-faced snake body of the divine beast, is only in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" or "Huainanzi" and "Chu Ci" to save zΓ i things!

If the little girl doesn't want her to have an accident, she's too naΓ―ve.

But as soon as Autumn Leaf Bai said this, it seemed to immediately anger a group of teenagers, and Ah Na first turned cold: "Bai Jiuyin is the blessed god of our Miao people, not something to deceive!" ”

"Yes, the saints and Gu kings of the past generations have seen it, so it's not a lie!"

"That's right!"

She couldn't understand all the Miao words spoken by the other gossips except for A-Na's words, but she could understand what the offended anger on the other party's face meant.

The Miao people respect nature, revere all things in heaven and earth, and believe that all plants and trees have souls, so when the gods they believe in are considered to be insignificant, they feel deeply insulted and offended.

Although she could understand this mood at that time, when she saw the appearance of Ah Na and them, she secretly said in her heart, what kind of white Jiuyin is mostly seen by Gu Kings and holy women, and it is probably an excuse and means for these 'divine envoys' to fool the believers of the mountain people and maintain their authoritative rule. These kids are brainwashed quite thoroughly.

When she saw their angry appearance, she had a bad intention of teasing these little children, and said with a smile: "Oh, yes, then you take me to see, if I see Bai Jiuyin, then I will believe you, and how about I invite you to eat delicious candy?" ”

As she spoke, she took out a paper bag from the cloth bag on her waist and opened it, revealing a number of delicate osmanthus candy balls and some other delicate snacks.

Ah Na They are young people in the mountains, of course, they know that the dim sum of the Han people is delicious, but they rarely go out of the mountains, and it is amazing to be able to eat them once a year, and the sugar balls brought back by the family are the most ordinary sugar balls, which have allowed them to carefully treasure them for a year. Sometimes you may not be able to eat it once a year, not to mention the exquisite and fragrant sweet candy balls in front of you.

Now the young people of the Miao family smelled the aroma, and then looked at the sugar balls and snacks that were wrapped in hard candy and exuded fragrance, and their eyes suddenly straightened, and some saliva flowed out directly.

Akiba Bai smiled secretly in his heart, children are really the least resistant to this kind of thing.

"What, Ah, don't you dare to bet, is it true or false?" Autumn leaves snorted lightly,

Xiao Chi suddenly said: "Naturally, it's not fake, if you want to see it, I can take you to see it." ”

"Xiao Chi, the Gu King and the adults all said that they couldn't go to the ...... of the Nine Yin Cave." Ah Na came back from the temptation of candy and wanted to stop it, but when he saw Xiao Chi suddenly raise his eyes and glance at him coldly, he instantly shuddered and didn't dare to say more.

Where can the other teenagers withstand the temptation of candy and Akiba Bai's agitation, although they hesitate, they still echo Koike one after another.

Akiba Bai smiled: "Okay, let's go." ”

After that, she first gave one of the candy in the oiled paper package to the teenagers, and said that if there was really Bai Jiuyin around her, she would give them the rest.

The teenagers were bought by candy, they were young and vigorous, and they wanted to give Miao people a long face, so they all agreed immediately, threw the adults' warnings behind, and led Autumn Leaves Bai with great interest.

All the way through the mountain road, the mountain fog barrier, the road is getting narrower and narrower, from the shallow grass to the ankle road gradually submerged the knees, the trees are verdant, the vine flowers are gradually blooming, and the thorns are spreading, so that they have to use machetes to chop open the place where people can barely pass guΓ², and the teenagers gradually go deeper and deeper, and all kinds of poisonous insect flowers, demon wood and different flowers are also increasing.

In a short time, you can see thigh-thick pythons quietly swimming through the grass around you, as well as all kinds of poisonous spiders as big as human heads, poisonous bees the size of half a palm, and so on...... Give somebody the creeps.

Fortunately, Ana and others live in such a deep mountain and old forest all the year round, and they are equipped with all kinds of insect repellent snake drugs and soaking masks to avoid poisonous miasma, and there is no shortage of male yellow things on the body of Autumn Leaf White, but the more you go into the mountains and forests, the more gloomy and dark the atmosphere becomes, the place where no one has passed for thousands of years is full of thick leaves, it is rainy in the south, and there are many animal corpses under the layers of leaves, and the strange smell of decay and fermentation is unbearable, and it is almost suffocating through the thick mask.

And those multicolored mountain poisonous fogs are also appearing more and more frequently, accompanied by half-rotten animal carcasses everywhere.

Autumn leaves looked around, and couldn't help but drum up in their hearts, where is this place where the ancient holy beasts live, it is simply a demon realm.

"No more...... We can't go any further, and further in front is where the corpse poison flower is located, and the medicine on our body can't resist the corpse poison flower at all! Ana, who was walking in the front, suddenly turned around and said loudly to the behind.

The other teenagers walked to this place, and when they saw such a terrible scene, they were already frightened, where were they willing to stay, and when they heard what Anna said, they all agreed, and then looked at Akiba Bai with some uneasiness.

After all, it was everyone who originally bet for 'Bai Jiuyin', and this time they lost.

Akiba Bai looked at the surrounding environment, and thought that she was just trying to play tricks on these little children, in case one of them accidentally fell into the swamp, or if these drug masks could not resist the poisonous gas of the swamp, if something really happened, she would not be able to escape the blame.

So, she nodded: "Okay, come back next time." ”

When she said this, she felt that Xiao Chi seemed to look at her, and her eyes were a little strange and cold, but when she turned around, she saw that Xiao Chi was still with his head down, very shy.

Seeing that Qiu Yebai lightly revealed the matter, a group of teenagers felt that they had not lost the big face of the Miao people, so they were also extremely happy, and immediately turned back to the way they came, this time, it was still Ah Na and they took the lead.

When Autumn Leaf Bai saw the flowers blooming on the road, he suddenly remembered the 'corpse poison flower' mentioned by Ana, so he asked with some curiosity: "What is a corpse poison flower?" ”

Ah Na said while chopping rattan: "The corpse poison flower is a flower born from the place where Bai Jiuyin haunts, and it is a red and gorgeous flower that Bai Jiuyin grew on the corpse after letting the mountain beasts die in order to prevent its enemies and mortals from stepping into the territory, it is highly poisonous, and those who see it will be confused by its beauty and bright red color, and if they touch it, anyone who touches the corpse poison flower will die, and will be parasitized by the corpse poison flower and become the nutrients of the new corpse poison flower." ”

Qiu Yebai shook his head, and couldn't help but say: "Aren't your gods too terrifying, how can the gods be good?" ”

Ah Na shook her head: "Our god is good, but if he is offended or someone does unforgivable evil, he will become a demon and open the gates of hell to those who do not respect gods and have a vicious heart. ”

When Akiba Bai heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, this is ...... Very interesting theology.

God has two natures, not just good or evil, but is closer to human nature than Mahayana Buddhism.

While the two were talking, Autumn Leaf Bai suddenly caught a sharp glimpse of a large cluster of bewitching flowers blooming under a large tree nearby, the color was bright like blood, strong as fire, and a special aroma could be smelled from a distance, as if the smell of the corpses of rotten animals and plants in the air became good.

"That's ......."

Autumn leaves have never seen such a red flower, enchanting into such a flower, so she unconsciously walked over, looked at the flower, stunned for a moment, suddenly remembered Ana's words, she was shocked, suddenly looked up, and saw that there seemed to be some snake and other crawling animals in the grass, only a white light in front of her, and the wind was shining.

Startled, she took two steps back, looked around vigilantly, resting her hand in the scabbard at her waist, watching as the grass was overwhelmed, and something was evidently swimming past.

She couldn't help but scream: "Ah, do you think this flower is a corpse poison flower?" ”

The words had fallen, and she turned her head suddenly, only to find that there was no one around her!

In a moment, those Miao family teenagers and Xiao Chi seemed to have gone away.

Autumn leaves white cold sweat came out in an instant, in Dayao Mountain, if there was no person who was familiar with the road to lead the way, it would be impossible for her to get out of here for the rest of her life!

And at this moment, she suddenly felt that something cold and terrible was watching her, and as soon as she subconsciously looked up, she saw something white swimming silently from the huge tree above her head, leaving only a white light.

But at that moment, she could clearly see that it was a huge white tail, covered with white scales, spiraling into a pattern in the shape of a skull.

"Ah......!" She couldn't help but shout loudly, but no one answered her, there was a deathly silence all around, but there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes watching her coldly, the gaze was cold and vicious, she Ye Bai suppressed the fear in her heart and slowly retreated.

The more unknown something, the more terrifying it is.

"That's right, that's the Corpse Poison Flower." A voice suddenly sounded behind her, Autumn Leaf White froze, and subconsciously pulled out the knife and plunged it into the person behind her, but the next moment, Autumn Leaf White was shocked, and in the middle of the mountains, standing behind him was Xiao Chi!

Then she suddenly retracted her strength, and stopped narrowly an inch in front of the other party's eyes.

"Koike, you're really ...... Don't just stand behind others and talk in the future! Akiba Bai was angry and helpless, so he could only withdraw the knife in his hand and say to Koike.

Although I don't know how Koike suddenly appeared, the good thing is that at least I don't have to worry about not being able to go back.

Xiao Chi looked at her and said lightly: "Don't you want to see Bai Jiuyin, this is the corpse poison flower that can bewitch people's hearts, and those who smell it will be bewitched, Bai Jiuyin is here." ”

Autumn leaves were taken aback: "Is there really a white nine yin?" ”

Wouldn't it be some kind of man-eating white python?

"Of course, Bai Jiuyin, the human head and snake body, you will know when you see it, how can it be compared to a lowly snake." Xiao Chi said indifferently, slowly approaching the one-man tall flowers, and she reached out to touch them gently.

Autumn leaves were taken aback: "Xiaoike, that flower is poisonous." ”

Xiao Chi turned his head to look at her and laughed: "Come and see, this flower is really beautiful, isn't it." ”

Akiba Bai didn't know why, but Xiao Chi's smile, as if there was a strange demagogic power, made her walk over slowly, looking at those demonic red flowers, so delicate that they seemed to be able to take away people's sanity, she reached out to touch those petals in confusion, and said in a daze: "Yes, it's beautiful." ”

Xiao Chi paused: "And there is an effect, you don't know." ”

"What does it do?" Akiba Bai was a little confused, so he turned his head to look at Koike.

Turning her head, she suddenly noticed that Koike seemed to have grown taller, but this strange illusion was suddenly overshadowed by another feeling.

Amazing.

Yes, amazing, Xiao Chi's snow-white face seems to be almost transparent at the moment, a pair of eyes as dark as midnight are looking at her, and the long hair that was originally in the hat is scattered at the moment, it is as white as snow, scattered on her shoulders, the already beautiful face, at this moment is delicate and enchanting to the extreme, her smile is strange and cold and blurry.

It's strange and unfamiliar.

"Koike, you're so beautiful." She looked at her face with fascination.

"That's what the hunting role ......." Koike lowered his head and slowly approached Akiba Shiro, then his lips approached her, and then kissed her.

Autumn leaves stiffened for a moment, but the next moment, the soft touch and the rich aroma made her can't help but reach out and clasp Koike's waist tightly, deepening the kiss.

The rich aroma gradually diffuses the air, confusing someone's mind and making people gradually lose their minds.

Pieces of clothes fell to the ground.

Until, she suddenly stopped on Koike's flat chest.
