089 Escape and deception

Mankind!

The monsters in the courtyard, which had been quiet, suddenly boiled, and one by one they searched the surroundings nervously or angrily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"There are humans who come to look for death, is it an abominable demon slayer again?" A youkai with a huge scar on its body looked nervously around, it was almost killed by a powerful human last time, leaving it a little overwhelmed.

"Find him, kill him and eat him!" A yokai with a figure like a jackal licked its mouth, lying on the ground and sniffing, the corners of its mouth dripping with fishy saliva.

The monsters took action one after another, apparently not doubting what Zhu Huai said.

"The human ran out!"

Under the protection of the demon king, Zhu Huai will not directly kill him, but if other monsters do it, it is no wonder. As soon as Su Mo heard Zhu Huai speak, he realized that it was not good, and ran out before the surrounding monsters could react, and as soon as he reached the door, he heard a shrill shout from behind him.

He finally understood that the murderous guy didn't fail to see through his disguise, but watched him enter the place where the monsters were gathered in order to incite other monsters to attack him.

What a trick to borrow a knife to kill!

A dog and a cat at the entrance of the Taoist temple were still chatting with each other, and the huge black dog glanced at him and continued to be courteous in front of the petite black cat.

Call~

Su Mo gasped, he ran out in a panic just now, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings a little blankly, and he didn't know where he ran at all.

The tall trees shaded the sunlight and made the surroundings seem so dim, and the voices of some unknown insects sounded not far away, which made the place no longer silent.

Squeak squeak~

He walked cautiously on the dead branches and leaves, very worried about encountering some terrible monsters, after all, in order not to attract the attention of the monsters when he came out, he could only leave the flying sword at home.

As a sword immortal, if you don't have a sword, your strength will still be very affected.

"Fools drink vinegar! Fools drink vinegar! ”

At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from the upper left, which startled him and looked nervously. I saw a small gray bird standing on the branch, turning its little head to look at him curiously, and instead of being afraid of him, it flew over.

"Hey, why didn't you fly south?" Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was making a little fuss, and was actually startled by a bird.

"I can't fly south because of something, so I can only stay here. Son of Man, do me a favor. ”

He was talking to himself just now, but he didn't expect this bird to actually answer!

Su Mo frowned and looked at the other party, not understanding why a cuckoo that looked so ordinary was also a monster, could it be that all the creatures around him were monsters?

If it was a normal time, I would definitely help, but unfortunately now is not the time: "Sorry, I'm running for my life, if I get caught by those murderous guys, I won't die!" ”

"You're talking about the pursuers, why are they chasing you?" The cuckoo tilted its head and glanced in the direction of the sun.

"It's a long story, I can tell you if I have a chance in the future, but now I need to keep running." Su Mo had already sensed the approach of a demonic aura, and he didn't care about talking to the other party at the moment, so he opened the dense bushes and continued to flee for his life.

Plop~

The cuckoo flickered its wings and flew high into the air, and just when he thought that the other party had completely left, the little bird flew over again, landed in front of him and said, "Son of Man, I just flew into the air and saw a path leading to the temple, where you can run away from the pursuit of the monsters." ”

"Ah, thank you!" Su Mo is grateful for his winning streak, he didn't expect this monster to be so kind.

He followed the other man to find an easily accessible path, and after walking for about half an hour, he finally came out of the endless forest.

This escape was a great test for him, and he put his tired hands on his knees, bent over and gasped for air.

"It's miserable, it's broken like this, I really don't know how to explain it to Aunt Shuyuan when I go back."

Only then did he realize that the clothes on his body had become a standard hole suit, and they looked extremely miserable. Not only that, but after he stopped, he felt a burning pain on both hands, and when he looked closely, there were small wounds on them.

"Human, I helped you escape, please do me a favor." The cuckoo landed on a large rock in front of him, its golden feathers shining in the setting sun.

"Of course, what do you need me to do?" Su Mo stretched out his tongue and licked the bleeding wound on his hand, which was regarded as a simple disinfection treatment.

"You need to go with me to a place and get my mother out." The cuckoo tilted its head to look at him, and its voice was as crisp as a pearl falling on a jade plate, sounding very comfortable

Mother?

Su Mo looked at it with some surprise, and some introductions about cuckoos popped up in his mind.

The scientific name of this bird is the cuckoo, and it is a kind of creature with a bad character in the eyes of humans. Because they don't raise children, they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds. To make matters worse, they are usually born earlier than the other birds in the nest, and will push the original eggs out of the nest and fall to their deaths as soon as they are born.

They will be raised by their ignorant adoptive parents, and the size of the cuckoo is still one of the largest among birds, so it is common to see two small birds feeding a young bird that is larger than them.

This evil bird actually wants to save its parents, did it change its nature after becoming a monster?

Su Mo hesitated for a moment and asked, but the other party's tone changed and said, "I'm not the kind of ordinary weak guy, but I was born a monster." It is not surprising that humans are born of humans, and most of the monsters are born of youkai, and only a few are born naturally. What's so strange about me wanting to save my mother, won't you save your mother when she is in danger? ”

He smiled embarrassedly when he heard this, he was actually taught a lesson by a bird, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "You are right, I will go with you, which can be regarded as a reward for your kindness in guiding the way." ”

This cuckoo's strength is not much stronger than Gray Seven, and its mother was captured by an existence in the temple, so it is likely that the unknown existence is a god. The gods don't hurt people at will, so he doesn't have any burden on what he promises.

After a short rest, he walked up the steps built by the humans to the temple that the youkai had spoken of, and the buildings in the temple were dilapidated and overgrown with grass and vines.

In the middle of a clearing of ruins, a bald human was sitting cross-legged with a fire burning in front of him. A brown cuckoo was tied to a branch next to him, which seemed to be the mother of the youkai who brought him over.

Before he could speak, the golden cuckoo flying in front of him flew over and landed on the ground, and said in an anxious tone: "My lord, I have brought you food as you have commanded, and I ask your honorable lord to spare my mother!" ”
