Chapter 20: The Second Bead

Sima Lu shouted, "Run!" ā€

Changsheng saw that the birds were gathered together, and the speed was as fast as the wind chasing towards them, and with their two legs, they couldn't run at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Jiang Qu pressed her head and shouted, "Get down!" ā€

Her face was pressed to the ground, and she felt only a chill on her neck. A large flock of birds flew over her like a large black cloud, which brought up grass clippings and fallen leaves, and she could even smell the stench of the birds.

Sima Luming took off the sword behind him and did not draw it out of its sheath, but only swung it a few times in the air, intending to break up the strength of the gathering of these birds.

Qian Ruyue said, "What's going on with these birds, how can they suddenly attack people!" ā€

Jiang Qu guessed, "I see that bird is very similar to the extinction bird described in the ancient book, those fruits may be their food, have you ever heard of birds dying for food, you robbed them of food, of course you have to fight with you." ā€

The number of birds is really amazing, and there are only five of them, each of them can take care of the front and not the back, if those birds have human wisdom, directly use the tactics of outflanking, it is really impossible to stop.

A bird rode the wind past Qian Ruyue, leaving a scar directly on her arm. Qian Ruyue originally thought that this was just an ordinary test, but now that she saw blood, she said that these birds were going to come with her.

She drew her sword and broke the wings of one bird, and the smell of blood made the other birds even more crazy. Jiang Qu opened his fan and slammed it into the air, gathering a mist with a scent that filled the sky, and a haze in front of him temporarily disrupted the attack of those birds.

Jiang Qu said, "The fog can only block for a while. ā€

They saw a path along the way, and this retreat could only retreat to the entrance of the cave that connected the Taoist temple, and if those birds were blocked outside, they would definitely not be able to find the rest of the beads, so they could only run forward.

Take advantage of the fog to move forward when you can't see clearly.

Gu Changsheng saw that the shadow in front of him moved, and he tightly grabbed Chu Ban's hand and ran forward, a person who has no ability to protect himself is extremely insecure in such a situation, because the person in front of him also has to save himself, and he may not be able to take care of her.

And if she is abandoned by someone, although it is humiliating, the reality is that she can't cope with such a situation. So she can only rely on these people to act.

When they told her to run, she followed, and when they stopped, she stopped.

Because the fog was not only obstructing the bird's vision, even Gu Changsheng felt that the things in front of her were not clear, she guessed that other people should also have this phenomenon, and sure enough, she saw Qian Ruyue tripped over the vines on the ground.

Birdsong had begun to appear behind him, Jiang Qu stepped forward to help Qian Ruyue, Sima Luming took an arrow step, and with a wave of his long sword, he hit a bird that caught up from behind and opened its long mouth to bite Qian Ruyue with a hideous face.

Qian Ruyue said to Jiang Qu, "What are you waiting for, release those fogs again, so that those birds can't find the north and south." ā€

Jiang Qu smiled bitterly, "Miss, do you think my fan is some kind of magic weapon, saying that if you use clouds to reduce fog, you can use clouds to reduce fog." The powder stuffed in the fan bone will dissolve when it encounters the wind, which is specially used for me to escape for my life in an emergency, and the powder is only enough for one time. ā€

Although there is Sima Luming in front of them to check for them, but they can only defend and not attack, in fact, they are very passive, the range of fog distribution is not wide, the farther they run, the thinner the fog, the clearer the line of sight, those birds are only confused by this little trick for a while.

A bird suddenly flew towards Gu Changsheng from the left side beyond Sima Luming's defense, Changsheng closed his eyes and thought that he couldn't dodge, who knew that the bird didn't hurt her in the slightest, but flew over from her side to attack Qian Ruyue.

Qian Ruyue was shocked, her foot was injured, and she only relied on Jiang Qu to cover for her.

Gu Changsheng wondered, could it be that those birds also recognize people, know how to take revenge and revenge, but do not harm the innocent? Qian Ruyue only caused the birds to go crazy after picking those fruits, and it was also because she cut off the wings of one of the birds that the birds became even more angry.

Is it by the stimulation of the sense of smell?

Gu Changsheng looked at Qian Ruyue's clothes and said on a whim, "Miss Qian, take off your coat quickly." ā€

Qian Ruyue didn't take care of her at all, even if she wanted to, she couldn't do anything, those birds all treated her as a thorn in the side and pecked her as a target.

Gu Changsheng ran over with his hands to protect his face, directly pulled out her coat, and threw her clothes on the branches in a stunned state, then saw that those birds had shifted their targets, and they all flew to peck at Qian Ruyue's clothes, until they pecked her clothes to shreds, and finally dispersed.

I only felt that after the catastrophe, after breathing a sigh of relief, the symptoms of accelerated heart rate and weak legs caused by running for so long seemed to suddenly become stronger, and Changsheng sat directly on the ground to rest.

Jiang Qu seemed to feel the same way as her, and after sitting on the ground gasping for breath, he asked, "How did you use to drive those birds away?" ā€

Gu Changsheng pointed to the clothes that had been torn into rags and hung on the branches of a tree like a flag flying in the wind, "It was stained with blood and red juice." "It is estimated that Qian Ruyue accidentally splashed the juice and blood on her clothes when she tasted the fruits and cut the bird.

She thought that the sense of smell of birds and animals should be more sensitive than that of people, and when they first entered the forest, they flew down to check because they smelled unfamiliar smells, and Qian Ruyue didn't see those birds stop her when she picked the fruit, and it was the "revenge" of those birds that began after she ate the fruit.

She's just trying her luck.

Jiang Qu smiled, "If it weren't for you, maybe we would still be being chased." ā€

Gu Changsheng smiled, she was also very happy to be able to help. Even if she can pass the test, it depends on Sima Luming's ability to shelter her, she can contribute a force, although this part is not big, but at least it will not be unearned.

Qian Ruyue muttered, "It's just doing that little thing, what is there to boast about." ā€

Sima Luming said in a cold voice, "Then I obviously warned not to touch the things in the forest, but you are just the wind in your ears, and you have caused us a burden, should you say something." ā€

Qian Ruyue was stunned, although Sima Luming didn't show anything on his face, everyone could catch the anger from his words, but this person's temperament was a little cold, so that even the anger was cold.

Sima Luming said expressionlessly, "I said that I came to apprentice, not to play, if you can't stand it since you were a child, don't follow, since you came, I don't ask you to help me, at least don't make trouble for me." But from the time you went out to the present, have you ever remembered that if you were not your aunt's daughter, why should I be patient with you so much? ā€

Gu Changsheng and Jiang Qu didn't dare to make a sound, and the five of them came in to get the beads, and only after taking one of them began to fight. They are cousins and sisters, no matter how loud the quarrel is, it should be considered a family matter, and I feel that these outsiders can't intervene.

Qian Ruyue's eyes were red, such a proud person, no matter how sarcastic and sarcastic Xi Zixu's poisonous tongue was, she had never seen her cry, so she was said a few words by Sima Luming, and the bottom of her eyes was steaming. After standing up and limping away, Jiang Qu went over to stop her and tell her not to act so impulsively.

But he was almost slapped by Qian Ruyue, so frightened that he hurriedly jumped away from Qian Ruyue, "This face was given by my father, and my parents can't beat my parents." ā€

Sima Luming said, "If she wants to go by herself, let her go by herself." ā€

Jiang Qu smiled bitterly, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Qian Ruyue wanted Sima Luming to keep her, but he added fuel to the fire. Qian Ruyue is going farther and farther, and the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, Jiang Qu went over and persuaded, "Although I can't stand the girl's brutal willfulness, but she is a girl's family, she wants face, so give her face to appease people, after all, we first want to find the beads, and you don't want to turn back to find her after finding the beads." ā€

Sima Luming was silent for a while, but he had to focus on the overall situation, so he had to chase Qian Ruyue back. It stands to reason that Qian Ruyue's ankle was injured and she shouldn't be able to walk fast, but they chased her at a trotting speed for a while without seeing her shadow, wondering if they didn't pay attention and missed it.

I'm going to turn back and look for it again.

Jiang Qu shook his head and sighed, "That's why it is said that women cannot be offended, you look at the end of offending." This is called half the effort, and the time spent looking for beads is spent on finding people. ā€

That's no way, you can't really leave the money Ruyue alone. Chu Ban, who didn't talk much, pointed in the direction to the left, "There is the sound of water there." ā€

Changsheng calmed down and listened carefully, and indeed faintly heard the sound of gurgling water, remembering that Qian Ruyue was shouting to find a water source, "Will Miss Qian find water to drink?" ā€

Jiang Qu also felt that it was possible, "Go over and take a look?" "Among the few people, Sima Luming has the highest martial arts, and before he knows it, he is the only one who is the leader of the horse and regards him as the leader.

Sima Luming nodded. They passed through the gap between the trees, Gu Changsheng and Chu Ban were thin and weak, and at this time, they played the convenience of petite and exquisite, and they turned sideways through the gap without resistance.

Unlike Jiang Qu's shoulders that were too broad, he was stuck in the middle of the tree, so he had to borrow the pull of Gu Changsheng's Chu Ban, and one person grabbed one of his arms, and stepped on the trunk of the tree as if he were a radish, so as to free him from it.

He pulled down his collar and glanced at his shoulder, almost thinking that his shoulder bone was about to deform, "It hurts me to death, and I thought I would be caught between those two trees into a chopstick." He looked at Sima Luming and smiled a little gloatingly, it was not fair that he was the only one to be tortured like this. And Sima Luming was about the same size as him, he pressed his knuckles, "If you get stuck in a while, I will help you, and you will definitely come out soon." ā€

Sima Luming glanced at it lightly, grabbed the trunk of the tree and climbed to a high place, although these trees grow closer, but the higher they go, although the leaves are covered layer after layer, as long as they are opened, you will find that there are many gaps and spaces. He deftly stepped over the branch to the other side and jumped from above.

Jiang Qu said, "Brother, next time there is such a good way, can you also inform the younger brother, I am grateful." ā€

Sima Luming was born without smiling, and did not respond to him, Jiang Qu laughed a few more times, and stopped laughing when he found that he couldn't bring the atmosphere.

They followed the sound of the water, and really saw the river, the water was very clear, transparent reflected the pebbles under the water, and a few small fish swam leisurely past.

Jiang Qu squinted at the sun and said, "The direction of the forest should be east." Seeing Changsheng's doubts, he took the initiative to explain, "In fact, the four directions of southeast, south, and northwest also have their own attributes, the west belongs to gold, the east belongs to wood, the north belongs to water, and the south belongs to fire. If the direction of the forest is exactly to the east, and the beads are found on the tree, then the attribute of the wood should be met, and it may be possible to infer that the master to the north will be close to the water source. ā€

After his explanation, I always felt that everything became clear. "You know so much."

The first bead had been found so quickly thanks to his reminder, and although he was humble, he did not feel how profound he had thought of it. But such a big place only gave hints to the southeast, northwest and northwest, and if she relied on her brain, she could only blindly look for it in the four directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest.

It has always been clear that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, although Jiang Qu's kung fu does not look as good as Sima Luming's, but his brain is extremely good. And she doesn't seem to be able to find any other practical advantages besides Lotte.

Jiang Qu said with a smile, "My family is for people to show feng shui, so I know a little bit of fur." ā€

Qian Ruyue stood by the water, her hands hanging on her sides and staring at the river, thinking that Sima Luming's words had really hit her very hard, and she didn't even notice the footsteps they were approaching. Jiang Qu said, "Let's have a few good words with her in a while, women are very coaxing." "I have to teach him a few tricks.

Sima Luming suddenly raised his left hand to stop them, and he also stopped, staring at Qian Ruyue's expression. Qian Ruyue stared at the water intently, as if she had seen something worth celebrating, and laughed stupidly.

Jiang Qu said, "She won't be mad because of your words or two." ā€

Changsheng only thinks that it is not, it is true that the Qian girl is willful, but her mind is not so fragile, since she entered this place, there are too many strange things, she thinks that the Qian girl is more like a collision with evil spirits.

Sima Luming gestured for them to stop where they were, while he cautiously walked over to see what was going on. He walked to Qian Ruyue's side, looked at her face, but saw that she was out of her body, and there seemed to be only a shell with a smiling face standing in front of her.

He followed Qian Ruyue's gaze towards the river, and saw that something seemed to fall on the surface of the water and rippled, and then the scene appeared......

couldn't wait for Sima Luming to come back, but instead felt that he and Qian Ruyue were on the road, although he didn't show an inexplicable clever smile, he was also stunned. Jiang Qu shouted twice, he turned a deaf ear, although Sima Luming was a little colder, but it was not so ignorant, after all, he should know that Jiang Qu's two voices contained the meaning of throwing stones and asking for directions.

If there is no problem, he should at least say that he is safe.

I don't know if it's weird in that position, anyway, Jiang Qu doesn't dare to move, and it's as stupid as the two of them to walk over, so there's really no hope. Chu Ban picked up a stone and handed it to Jiang Qu, Jiang Qu didn't know what it meant, "What's wrong with this stone?" ā€

Chu Ban made a throwing motion. Jiang Qu still didn't understand, "You want to throw this stone?" Now is not the time to play. ā€

Chu Ban threw the stone in the direction of Sima Luming with all his strength, but unfortunately the person was small and his strength was small, and the stone fell down before hitting the target. Jiang Qu suddenly understood what he meant, picked up his hand on the ground, and also aimed at Sima Luming. Gu Changsheng exclaimed, "You don't want to hit them with a stone, do you?" ā€

Jiang Qu smiled, "Don't you think this method is very good, they may return to normal when they are in pain." ā€

All she knows is that if she accidentally hits someone in the head with a stone, she may turn someone into a fool. She has seen someone fall and hurt the back of her head, and she woke up in a daze that she didn't even know her parents. Even if the man was lucky, he would be back to normal after three days.

But this kind of luck is not for everyone. The head is the head of the body, and the injury is not trivial, "Can you change the method?" I think it's too dangerous to throw stones. ā€

Jiang Qu waved his hand and said, "When I was a child, I liked to play with slingshots the most, shooting things accurately, shooting flowers and grass is a breeze, not to mention that the target is still so big now, don't worry." ā€

Yes, Gu Changsheng saw his excitement about trying it, and wanted to ask him if he wanted to report that because Duanmu Weizhen didn't tell him the method, he got stuck between the trees and had a foreign hatred.

Jiang Qu said, "I hope he can really recover in a while, otherwise just the three of us, I don't dare to break into this kind of evil place, I'd rather stay where I am and wait for the time to let the disciples of the Jade Void Sect get us back." ā€

He threw the stone out, and it happened to hit Sima Luming's arm, but seeing that he still didn't react, Changsheng couldn't help but be a little disappointed, who knew that it was wrong. The stone fell into the river as it bounced and fell, and it scattered Sima Luming's reflection in the water.

Sima Luming shook his body and sat down on the ground, he pressed his temples and shook his head to concentrate his sluggish spirit. After waiting for her hands and feet to regain their strength, she used her sword to break up Qian Ruyue's reflection, and then returned to Gu Changsheng and them with her fallen body.

Jiang Qu said with concern, "You were enchanted just now, are you okay?" ā€

Sima Luming closed his eyes and still felt a little dizzy in his brain, Chu Ban took the herb from the pocket of his clothes and handed it to Sima Luming's nose, Sima Luming subconsciously tilted his head, and seemed to watch Chu Ban's unchanged action for a while with a defensive look, which should be to let him smell the herb.

Jiang Qu rubbed Chu Ban's little head, "I heard that the tribes in the southwest are very powerful in witchcraft and medicine, you shouldn't know how to understand medicine." ā€

Chu Ban nodded.

When Sima Luming heard this, he leaned over to smell the herbs, and really felt a cool smell in front of his nose, which was very refreshing. Sima Lu said, "Thank you." ā€

The child was afraid of life, smiled shyly, and then took the herb and put it in front of Qian Ruyue's nose and shook it for a while, let the smell enter her heart and lungs with the air, took out the leaf-like plant from another pocket, smashed the juice with a stone, and applied it to Qian Ruyue's wound scratched by the exterminating bird.

Sima Luming stood up, his steps were vain, Jiang Qu thought he was leaving, pressed his shoulders and persuaded, "Let's rest for a while, two of the five people are injured now, and they can't walk fast if they want to." ā€

Sima Lu said, "There is another bead in the river, I have to go and get it." ā€

Jiang Qu was surprised, "You still have to go over, although I intended to apprentice, but I haven't passed the thrilling trial first." If I knew that I would be injured by entering the Taixu Immortal Realm, I might not be willing to come in. It's still a matter of life, don't go over, if you are fixed again, I don't know if throwing stones again will work. ā€

Sima Luming insisted on going his own way, "The river will give birth to illusions and confuse the mind, as long as you don't look at it." He walked over, closed his eyes as he approached the water, reached out and groped under the river, and fished out a second bead.
