Chapter 22 The setting moon Capricorn sister
On the other side of the river was a field of reeds, and a few donkeys quietly appeared, and then disappeared in an instant, just in time for the extraordinary eyesight of the sunset moon to see. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"How can there be a donkey here? Do you see clearly? Ding Xiaoyu asked very strangely.
"Can't be wrong! And, my intuition tells me that these donkeys are not ordinary donkeys, and I can even feel that they have the same mind as people! ”
"Can you feel them? Could it have something to do with your mother's abilities? ”
"Perhaps! These donkeys seem to warn us that we better leave as soon as possible, but are afraid of us, and I can feel them! Yuzuki closed her eyes, as if feeling everything around her, including the donkeys.
"Some of them donkeys don't look like real donkeys, because these donkeys have the same mind!"
"Get out of here! There's a battle coming up here! A voice came from the reeds on the other side.
"Xiyue, your psychic skills are too awesome, you can even make a donkey speak!" Ding Xiaoyu really saw a donkey and appeared on the other side of the river and shouted to them, it seemed that it was the more courageous one.
"No, it's they who are really talking!" Hearing the donkey that was talking to a human, Xiyue was also very surprised. But thinking that there was no one here, that she and Xiaoyu were still young after all, and that they were little girls, Xiyue hurriedly pulled Ding Xiaoyu and ran to her own people upstream.
"Let's go! I can feel that the donkey is telling the truth, we need to get out of here! ”
Ding Xiaoyu still wanted to take a closer look at the donkey, but the donkey was soon gone.
Xiyue took Ding Xiaoyu's hand and ran upstream along the river, ready to inform the people of Xijia Village about what happened just now.
Crossing the reeds by the river, you can see your own people, Xiyue pulled Ding Xiaoyu tightly, like pulling a kite, afraid that she would run away as soon as she let go, and Ding Xiaoyu still looked back from time to time, as if she was still thinking about the donkey in her heart.
Suddenly, a figure flashed out of the reeds, his face was covered with blood, his eyes no longer had the whites of his eyes, and the muscles all over his body were twitching, it was Feng Qi!
"Don't come here, run!" Feng Qi shouted, but quickly disappeared into the reeds.
Seeing Feng Qi with a bloody face, Xiyue was very anxious, this time it was Ding Xiaoyu who pulled Xiyue.
"Don't go over! It could be a Gu technique! Ding Xiaoyu shouted. Ding Xiaoyu originally came from a family of Gu magic, and in addition to knowing magic control techniques, the Shen Miao clan also had the ability to control magic. Xiao Yu had already seen some clues about Feng Qi's Gu technique.
"You stay here, I'll go!" Ding Xiaoyu behaved like a real man.
"No, let's go together, the strength my mother gave me was not for me to see my relatives hurt!"
"But you don't know how to use these powers, do you? It's too dangerous for you to go like this! ”
"Didn't you teach me spiritism the other day, and I tried to use my power to channel with the nearest animal! Help me cast a blood curse! ”
The situation was urgent, and Ding Xiaoyu decided to give Xiyue a try. Yuzuki is not yet familiar with spiritism, especially the drawing of blood spells.
"Come on!" After saying that, Yuzuki bit the fingers of her right hand. Ding Xiaoyu immediately used his own hand to hold Xiyue's bleeding finger, and drew a special blood talisman symbol on Xiyue's left hand, which resembled a bat.
"Psychic!" Yuzuki tried to use her mana to power the spell, but nothing happened, and Yuzuki didn't realize that she was sweating profusely.
"What's going on?" Xiyue became more and more anxious.
Ding Xiaoyu on the side could only be anxious, she also tried to channel, but it seemed that her spiritism was locked and could not be used.
"It doesn't look like a Gu technique, does it...... Enchantment! Ding Xiaoyu suddenly thought.
"Rush in! ......Before he could finish speaking, the setting moon flashed into the reeds.
"Beware of enchantments!" Ding Xiaoyu shouted, took off the snakeskin whip on his body, and then rushed in.
After the reeds, it was the place where everyone camped and rested, but it was empty, even Feng Qi who appeared just now was without a trace.
"Blindfolding? Hmph, it turned out to be a master of enchantment, Xiyue, stay by my side and don't go beyond five steps! Xiaoyu shouted at Xiyue.
"Okay!" Xiyue flashed to Ding Xiaoyu's side in the blink of an eye, and the two of them were back to back and began to observe their surroundings vigilantly.
Yuzuki soon noticed a strange animal floating in the middle of the river, with a sheep's head and a fish, looking at them with its head tilted, its eyes glittering with multicolored light.
"Xiaoyu, look, there's something in the river!" Yuzuki said as she pointed to the strange animal in the river.
Ding Xiaoyu carefully looked in the direction where the setting moon was pointing, but what he saw was a smooth river surface like a mirror.
"What's there?"
"That sheep's head thing, lo and behold, is watching us!" Xiyue is very strange, such an obvious monster, Xiaoyu can't even see it.
"Sheep's head and fish body? …… Capricorn! You can see him at sunset! Xiyue's words just now surprised Ding Xiaoyu, you know, Capricorn is the top existence of illusion, and it is precisely because this monster's illusion is too powerful, so no one has ever really seen his true body!
Xiao Yu continued: "I really didn't expect that it was neither an enchantment nor a Gu technique, but a Capricorn illusion!" What a sight to see today! ”
"Xiyue, you can say 'hello' to him!" Ding Xiaoyu grimaced at Xiyue and said.
The so-called greeting is actually a code word, which is to test the attack.
"Swordsmanship!" Xiyue has the mana given by her mother, and her swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds. A short sword in his back, quickly galloping towards the river. Seeing something heading straight for him, the monster seemed to be extremely frightened, screamed and disappeared.
Xiyue and Ding Xiaoyu were surprised to find that the scene around them was immediately restored to the way they were before they left the team, still standing by the river not far from the camp.
"It's really Capricorn!" Ding Xiaoyu said in surprise.
"What kind of monster is Capricorn? Why confuse us? Xiyue asked puzzled.
"Capricorn was the only surviving Twelve Constellation monsters in the First Magic War. It is said to be an alliance of the Goddess of Creation, of course, it was more than a thousand years ago, and I still listen to what my grandmother said! Ding Xiaoyu said.
"Wait, what if you're still hallucinating around with the barrier?" Yuzuki suddenly thought of this, and she continued, "I think, we should catch this Capricorn!" ”
"Ahh Ding Xiaoyu said in surprise: "It seems that no one has ever caught this kind of thing!" ”
But to Ding Xiaoyu's surprise, Xiyue seems to have changed, no longer as timid and cautious as before, but has become bold and confident.
"Maybe it's Yuzuki's mother's mana that gives her strength and confidence!" Ding Xiaoyu thought to herself.
"Xiaoyu, help me and let me go to the other side of the river!" Yuzuki suddenly asked.
"Okay, I'll use my long whip, and if you use your sword control skills to increase your strength, I can send you over!" After Ding Xiaoyu finished speaking, he untied the snake-like long whip from Xiu's waist,
The whip was like a silver serpent, and when it was sprinkled through the air, it was stretched several feet, and the whip was slightly wrapped around the trunk of a large willow tree on the other side of the river.
"Up!" Yuzuki quickly sacrificed his short sword. The short sword was horizontal on top of Ding Xiaoyu's long whip, and Xiyue flew forward, stepped on the short sword, and followed Ding Xiaoyu's long whip to the willow trees on the opposite bank like a bird.
The dry cold wind whistled in the ears of the setting moon, and soon reached the opposite shore. As she slid directly above the river, Yuzuki deliberately looked at the water beneath her feet, but there was no shadow of the Capricorn.
Seeing that it was about to slip to the end, Xiyue stepped on the trunk of the willow tree with her right foot to cushion it, and then flew down Ding Xiaoyu's long whip and stood firmly under the willow tree, her movements were extremely light and in one go. Ding Xiaoyu on the other side of the river was stupid, seeing that Xiyue's skills were so pure, Ding Xiaoyu had confidence in catching Capricorn, she shouted at Xiyue: "Xiyue, the two of us searched along the river, we have to catch this little thing!" ”
After speaking, Ding Xiaoyu looked back and saw that the camp in Xijia Village, not far behind her, had disappeared out of thin air, and she knew that Capricorn was performing illusions nearby.
Yuzuki carefully examined the nearby riverbank, and soon noticed a strange row of footprints on the grass on the riverbank, leading to a heather bush not far away. There was nothing strange in the bushes except for a dry branch, so Yuzuki turned to look at the river, but when Yuzuki turned around, Yuzuki felt as if the branches were moving, so she quickly turned back......
Although it is southern, it is also very wet and cold in winter. Wrapped in a collar and holding a short sword, the setting moon gradually approached the heather bush vigilantly.
"That's it! I give up! The voice of a young girl came from the heather bushes.
When the setting moon fixed its eyes, a gray goat flashed out of the bushes.
"You...... How did you see me? Why didn't my illusions work very well for you? Who the hell are you? …… Are you a member of the family of the goddess of creation? "This goat is very peculiar, most conspicuously because he has a pair of slender and curved horns, which the setting moon once thought were branches of a bush. The pattern of her fur changes with the surrounding environment, making it difficult for people to spot her. Yuzuki noticed that the back half of the goat's body was wet, as if it had just crawled out of the water. I don't know if it's because of the cold or the fear, my body is constantly shaking. The big frightened eyes kept flickering, crystal clear, like a spring full of water.
"Don't be afraid, I don't mean anything!" Seeing the goat's fright, Xiyue couldn't bear it and hurriedly comforted her.
"Don't hurt me, I'll dismiss the illusion!" After saying that, Capricorn's hind legs hurriedly bent down, and then asked: "How can you see me, will you be a member of the Goddess of Creation clan!" ”
Yuyue nodded, and hurriedly motioned for the goat, or Capricorn, to stand up.
"What about our people?" Yuzuki asked.
"They're still where they are! I didn't hurt them! The attacks you just saw your people were all illusions of my making. ”
"So, what about the donkeys?" Yuzuki suspects that the donkeys may also be an illusion created by Capricorn.
"You mean those stupid donkeys? That's not an illusion, these donkeys have fought with me several times for the territory of the river, and I have always put up with these stupid donkeys! Since you are of the Creator Goddess family, I must tell you that my illusion does not work on the talking donkey in the herd, which is to my surprise, which means that the donkey may also be related to the Creator Goddess people, because I know that my illusion is only effective against the people of the Creation Goddess family. Capricorn said.
"Really?" Thinking that the donkey and goat might have something to do with his background, Yuzuki decided to find out.
"Yuzuki, what do you see?" On the other side of the river, Ding Xiaoyu's melodious voice came from the other side.
"I found her!" Yuzuki replied.
"Since you are the person of the goddess of creation, you will become my master, and I am also helpless now!" Capricorn could sense Yuzuki's kindness and approachability, and she continued: "My family has been captured by a group of witch doctors, and I am alone, and I met you, maybe by chance. ”
Through this Capricorn speech, Yuzuki could feel her sincerity.
"Come back to the other side of the river with me, I have a friend there!" Can't you transform into a human form? Xiyue asked.
"Hey, I also want to become a human, my mana is not enough! It will take at least a year of hard cultivation before it is possible to transform into a human form, but now, I am alone, and even survival is a problem, how can I cultivate! ”
Seeing Capricorn's goatee curled up and turned out to be a girl's voice, Xiyue felt strange in her heart; But you can't show it, so she comforted: "In the future, you can go with me, there is no master who is not a master, although you have not transformed into a human form, but judging by your voice, you should be younger than me, just call me sister!" ”
"That's great!" Capricorn happily bounced in the air and stayed for a while, much to the surprise of Yuzuki, so she asked, "You can swim, can you?" ”
"Of course, the back half of my body turns into a fishtail when it touches the water, and I can run fast and swim at the same time! Are you an exorcist? I can definitely be a good helper for you! ”
Xiyue smiled and nodded, and said, "Little sister, come back to the other side of the river with me, and I'll introduce you to another friend!" By the way, what's your name? ”
"Little sister! Friend! Hearing Xiyue call herself that, she couldn't help but burst into tears, it's been a long time since anyone called herself that!
"My name is Shangguan Tong'er! Sister...... Just call me Sister Shangguan! By the way, I'll carry you over! ”
After speaking, her two vigorous legs jumped in the air and fell into the water like lightning, and the back half of her body quickly turned into a fish tail when she encountered the water, moving like a floating dragon in the water. Ding Xiaoyu on the other side of the river looked at Shangguan Tong'er's amazing magic-like changes in surprise, and his mouth was long and dumbfounded.
"Sister! Fast! Jump on my back! Shangguan Tong'er in the river shouted towards the setting moon on the shore. Xiyue hesitated for a moment, and then jumped lightly and steadily onto Shangguan Tong'er's back.
"Sister, you have to stand firm!" Shangguan Tong'er admonished, but she swam very steadily, faster and faster, like an arrow from a string, and soon reached the shore.
"Wow! Sunset! You did it! Capricorn like a fake! One of the Twelve Nakshatra Monsters! Ding Xiaoyu jumped up excitedly.
"Hey, Xiaoyu, she's the sister I just recognized, that is, your sister! Good to her! Xiyue hurriedly said, for Xiaoyu's mouth, Xiyue is 100,000, but don't worry.
"Sister...... You...... Hello! As soon as he jumped on the shore, Shangguan Tong'er, who had already transformed into a goat, timidly greeted Ding Xiaoyu.
"Hey, hey! …… Good...... Good sister! "Ding Xiaoyu didn't care if the back half of Shangguan Tong'er's body was still wet, and after speaking, he hugged and hugged, kissed and kissed." Hehe, it's so cute! A little excited! Just hug it! ”
Shangguan Tong'er looked up at Xiyue as if asking for help, his big eyes were full of surprise.
Xiyue could only shake her head apologetically and said, "Hey, Xiaoyu, when she cultivates into a human form, it's not too late for you to hug her!" ”
"Disillusionment! Restore! Shangguan Tong'er said suddenly.
When Xiyue reacted, she found that Ding Xiaoyu was already hugging a teenage girl and kissing her.
"How so? I can transform into a human form! ”
Shangguan Tong'er shouted in surprise! Xiyue smiled slightly, because she also felt a force of life force sprouting in her body!
