Chapter 7, 'Mountain God' Python

The next day, Chu Haoge and Murong Xiaoyan packed their bags and met in the fence courtyard, and the two walked towards the house where Jiuli Qiantaro was located after a few greetings.

Before the two of them could knock on the door of Jiuli Qiantaro, Jiuli Qiantaro's door suddenly opened, Jiuli Qiantaro walked out of the house, and when they saw the two, they were stunned at first, Murong Xiaoyan and Chu Haoge stood in place and didn't wait to speak, Jiuli Qiantaro spoke first.

"Miss Murong, what you said last time about the cheap illness of Young Master Chu, according to the symptoms, I checked the medical book for a few days but there was no progress, but I inadvertently mentioned the evil spirit in the strange story, but due to the limited record, I can't go into more detail for Miss Murong." Jiu Li Qian said to the two.

Murong Xiaoyan was stupid when she heard this, she stood straight in place, and suddenly remembered that she casually scolded Chu Haoge for "cheap disease" after "pouring medicine" into Chu Haoge, and the whole person was like a stone statue, and what made her even more puzzled was that she didn't say anything about symptoms or anything like that......

Chu Haoge returned the salute, his smile was like a breeze, and the pig in the past was gone, he said to Jiuli Qiantaro: "Thank you Qiantaro girl for bothering, Xiaosheng is grateful, this disease seems to be inherited from Xiaosheng's family, and it has been poisonous for a long time, although Xiaosheng has only become ill recently, but it can not be cured overnight." ”

Murong Xiaoyan seemed to be sweating beside her, she really didn't know what these two people were talking about, she felt like a fool standing here, muttering in her mouth: "Cheap disease...... Familial genetic ......"

Jiuli Qiantaro responded again, and this time Chu Haoge bowed directly to Jiuli Qiantaro: "Qiantao girl, thanks to the girl's care these days, the grace of saving her life cannot be repaid, Xiaosheng has bowed here." ”

Jiuli Qianyan replied with a very decent salute, and then Chu Haoge stepped on Murong Xiaoyan with his foot, only then did Murong Xiaoyan come to his senses, Murong Xiaoyan also bowed, but what he said in his mouth was not polite: "Thank you, Sister Qianyan." ”

Jiu Li Qiantaro pursed his lips and nodded, Chu Haoge said: "Xiao Sheng has been injured recently, so naturally it is not good to bother, Murong and I are ready to leave immediately." ”

"I'm not the master of this, so why bother." Jiuli Qianyu smiled and said, "I'm going to leave Xianglin Village in the near future." She looked at the two of them and asked meaningfully, "Are you going south?" ”

Chu Haoge said: "This ...... That's true, but where did the girl know? A trace of vigilance flashed in Chu Haoge's eyes, and the smile on his face was a little stiff, but he still maintained a polite appearance, Murong Xiaoyan knew that he was not good at this kind of "girl" and "childe" conversation, and stood next to him very obediently without saying a word, if others didn't know, they might really think that she was a well-behaved little sister next door.

Seeing Chu Haoge like this, Jiu Li Qiantaro was also a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Chu Gongzi is not strange, when I was treating the two, I found that the two of them were carrying a map of the southern suburbs of Chang'an, presumably from Chang'an all the way from here, so I asked." ”

Chu Haoge exhaled, he didn't think Jiuli Qiantaro was a bad person, and it was not impossible for her to let her know her destination, so if he didn't say it, he would be stingy, so he said: "Miss Qiantaro is serious, the two of us are going to Jiangling, and what the girl said just now is also leaving, I don't know where to go?" ”

Hearing Chu Haoge's words, Jiuli Qiantaro looked a little happy, and said: "I am originally a clan from outside the Northwest Regions, and I am about to go to Qingyun Sect to tell you, I just happened to pass by Jiangling, I don't know if I can go with the two of you......"

This time, before Chu Haoge could speak, Murong Xiaoyan spoke: "Okay, okay, you're not good at fighting, I can protect you on the way." ”

Jiu Li Qianyu arched his hand with a smile: "Then thank Miss Murong first." This time, Chu Haoge was left aside.

While talking, there was a noisy sound outside the courtyard, which seemed to be something very important, so that the conversation between the three came to an abrupt end, at this time, the old lady of the owner ran out and said to Jiuli Qiantaro: "Miss Qiantaro, this seems to be the mountain god is coming, the old woman is going to worship, please feel free to the three." "It may be that Jiuli Qiantaro emphasized it a few times, and the old woman doesn't call her a fairy girl anymore. Saying that, the old woman didn't care about a few people, and ran out quickly, and the three of them sweated for her, as if they were going to fall down at any time.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Murong Xiaoyan spoke, "Mountain God? I haven't seen it yet. ”

After some exchange, the three of them decided to go to see the mountain gods in the village before preparing to set off.

【Xianglin Village, Back Mountain】

A group of villagers were kowtowing to the distant mountains and forests blocked by boulders, Chu Haoge and the three of them found a place and pretended to be, asked a few villagers, and learned that Xianglin Village often had earthquakes when they came in, and every time they worshipped that place, the earthquake would disappear.

The three of them felt strange no matter what they thought, so the three of them retreated to a sparsely populated place.

Chu Haoge looked at the villagers who were worshipping sincerely in the distance, frowned, and said, "I have heard a lot about the legend of this mountain god, but I have never heard of it appearing after worshipping, I think something is wrong with this." ”

Chu Haoge is good at this, he never loses rudeness when he is fine, and when he has something to do, he is never dragged down by the number of courtesies, and he always has something to say.

Jiuli Qiantaro Dai frowned slightly, and said to the two: "I have lived at the intersection of the Western Regions and the Central Plains since I was a child, and I am also quite sensitive to the demonic energy, I always feel that there seems to be a strong demonic spirit in this mountain, if I expect it to be good, I am afraid that the villagers are not worshipping the mountain god, but some kind of monster......" Before she finished speaking, Chu Haoge hurriedly made a silent gesture, and Jiuli Qiantaro's words stopped.

"What's wrong?" Murong Xiaoyan asked him.

Chu Haoge waved his hand and said, "These villagers are afraid that they are convinced of the mountain god, if the villagers hear about the incident, we will still investigate secretly, and it can be regarded as repaying the villagers for taking care of us recently." Saying that, Chu Haoge and the three of them made preparations.

"Okay." "Hmm" Murong Xiaoyan and Jiuli Qiantaro answered one after another, and the three of them began to walk around from behind the villagers, preparing to go around the forest to check.

There is a fork in the road at the entrance of the village, one road is a dead end, that is, the one leading to the back mountain, the road is blocked by a boulder from the back mountain, and there is a forest behind it, but basically no one can pass from there, after all, no one will make a lot of effort to climb the boulder, so the villagers will detour from the other road.

The three of them entered the woods and went all the way to the back mountain, the woods were extremely dense, and there were gravel blocking the way from time to time, but most of them could be bypassed, the herbs in the forest were extremely dense, and there were few fierce beasts, Chu Haoge and the others still felt quite smooth all the way.

The three of them were stepping into the depths of the forest, and suddenly felt a shadow rushing past from the corner of their eyes, and in an instant, Chu Haoge and the others hurriedly looked back, but they didn't find anything, and there were no footprints on the ground, but the branches in this forest obviously had traces of being scraped, and the degree of damage should be a person, at least about the same size as a person.

The three of them looked at each other, and Jiuli Qianyao was a little surprised, and said, "This ...... That shadow just now moved so quickly, and I didn't feel the demonic aura on him, could it really be that there was a mountain god? ”

"Hmm......" Chu Haoge swallowed his saliva, and his face suddenly seemed to be overjoyed: "I'm so big, I've heard a lot of legends about the mountain god, and I haven't seen it with my own eyes, let's go and see it, I heard that the mountain god can also help people realize their wishes, let's go and take a look." As soon as he finished speaking, he ran in the direction of the shadow like a child.

"I've never seen the world." Murong Xiaoyan complained, and then saw Chu Haoge running fast, and after a while, he opened up the distance, and hurriedly ran out, "Hey...... Wait for me ......"

"......" Jiu Li Qiantaro also trotted to follow.

Where the three of them left, there was a person standing on the big tree next to him, he (she) was masked, only revealing a pair of shrewd eyes, this person was wearing a black and purple robe, it didn't look like an ordinary person in the Central Plains, he didn't seem to be carrying any weapons, but there was a blue and white jade hanging on his left waist, the cuffs were locked, the robe was hooded, wrapped like a ghost, and this person's robe was embroidered with some difficult patterns, and the center looked like a turtle with a tiger head and a lion's tail.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

When the man saw Chu Haoge and the three of them leaving, he also quickly followed, but he was moving in the trees, and only a few black shadows flashed underground.

Speaking of Chu Haoge and the three of them, the three of them had already gone around to the back of the boulder at this time, and at this time, the ground began to shake again without warning, and the three of them were almost unstable on their feet, but in less than half a moment, the shaking stopped again, and the source of this tremor seemed to be underground, before the three of them could think about it, Chu Haoge suddenly saw that there was a person on the side of the boulder who was checking something.

The three of them stepped forward, but the man suddenly didn't move, Chu Haoge stepped forward and took the lead and said, "May I ask the great god is the mountain god here?" ”

The man turned around, looked at Chu Haoge, then at Murong Xiaoyan and Jiuli Qiantaro behind him, shook his head and said only two words: "No." ”

As soon as this person turned around, Chu Haoge found that this person's outfit was dressed as a Taoist priest, with a blue and white Taoist robe, but he did not wear a Taoist crown, his hair was knotted at the back, and he naturally hung down on his waist, his temples drooped, and he was carrying a sword behind him.

Chu Haoge's eyes looked at him, his eyes seemed to have magic power, Chu Haoge couldn't easily move away, but he was so embarrassed all the time, and hurriedly said, "Hmm...... Could the predecessor be a sword immortal? This is the name that ordinary people call the person who cultivates the path of Edgeworth, and of course, it is also called "immortal master" in a few places.

The man looked at Chu Haoge, his eyes didn't blink, as if he was a lover who had been reunited after a long absence, he didn't speak and just stared straight at Chu Haoge, muttering in a low voice: "This is ...... Breath ......"

Murong Xiaoyan didn't hear him whispering to herself, she only felt goosebumps, the two big men looked at each other affectionately, not everyone wanted to see the excitement, Murong Xiaoyan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Who are you." ”

"......" and several people were speechless for a while, after all, if they were ordinary people, they would have to be polite even if they didn't know how to be polite when they met for the first time, but this came up and asked "Who are you" is obviously going to start......

The man looked at Murong Xiaoyan, and then looked at Chu Haoge two more times as if he was reluctant before he said to the three of them: "You guys resist here, I'll evacuate the villagers." With that, he leaped forward, and the sword behind him suddenly came out of his body, and at once dragged him at his feet, and the sword body bloomed with golden light, and in just a moment, the man flew over the boulder and reached the other side of the boulder.

Chu Haoge stared blankly at the direction where the man was flying, swallowed his saliva, and at this time, Murong Xiaoyan slapped him from behind, and he reacted, and his words were not very neat: "This ...... It is...... The legendary ...... of the sword"

"I can't see it, I only knew that you had no resistance to beautiful women, but I didn't expect you to have a soft spot for handsome guys, and you really hide it." Murong Xiaoyan patted Chu Haoge's shoulder as he spoke, and said with a smile: "Longyangjun ......"

Jiu Li Qianyu looked into the distance, although he was not too shocked, as if he was thoughtful, and said, "He just said let's resist ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Before the three of them could think about it, the ground shook violently, and they felt as if the whole mountain had collapsed, and then the ground in front of the three of them began to arch upward.

The arch was getting bigger and bigger, and suddenly, a huge python head sprang out from the ground, the whole head was more than two people tall, more than wide, and there were many scales on the body, like armor, which startled Chu Haoge, who was standing in front, and took a few steps back and sat on the ground.

Chu Haoge looked back at Jiuli Qianyao and Murong Xiaoyan and couldn't help but have a fever on his face, although the two girls were surprised, they didn't show much panic, but he was a big man who was so unbearable, he couldn't help but be extremely angry, rolled up from the ground, and then took out the starlight giant sword on his back and put it across his chest.

Chu Haoge and Murong Xiaoyan consciously protected Jiuli Qiantaro behind them, and the three of them found that the giant python was inconvenient because it was still half crushed under the boulder.

"This long worm is difficult to move now, let's kill it before it gets out of trouble, otherwise the villagers here will definitely suffer after it gets out of trouble." Chu Haoge said and rushed over with Murong Xiaoyan, relying on the giant python's inability to move to fight with him, Murong Xiaoyan's scimitar and soft whip were difficult to break through its defenses, and sometimes it couldn't even cut the scales, so Murong Xiaoyan had to interfere with the big snake and let Chu Haoge attack, Jiuli Qiantaro used a spell to interfere in the back, a water ball smashed on its eyes, and an illusion disturbed the senses of the giant python.

The fight lasted for half a day.

This made this giant python angry, the scales all over its body seemed to be about to explode, roaring wildly, Chu Haoge didn't care what it did, he directly slashed at the giant python's body, the scales of the giant python were directly chopped, and some were even smashed directly into the flesh, and a huge wound appeared on the giant python's head.

Chu Haoge has been practicing the basic skills of swinging a sword recently, which is useful for swordsmanship when it is against the enemy, but it is useless for this kind of huge monster, it can only rely on instinct to swing, or it can only be instinct to resist instinct, Chu Haoge's instinct to swing a sword.

"Roar!" The python roared in pain, and its whole body shook violently, and at this time, the ground also shook, and then looked at the boulder, cracks actually appeared, cracks like spider webs.

As soon as Chu Haoge saw this situation, a cold sweat came down as soon as he "snorted", and his whole body froze in place......

"This python is getting out of trouble......"
