Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Taoist Priest Appears
As soon as I entered the woods, I was so thirsty that it was as if ten suns were roasting me.
I wanted to move, but I couldn't, and I didn't have any strength in my body. In the depths of the woods, there was a faint sound of wind and the cacophony of cicadas, mixed with the strange roar of beasts.
Like Xiao Yubai's voice?
One second it was unusually close, and the next second it was far away from the end of the world.
Something was pulling Xiao Yubai, as if it was going to take him to another world?
"White?" Suddenly, a rolling storm of spiritual power rose all over my body, and my eyes were suddenly covered by a cloud of black mist, and a pleasant familiar male voice sounded in my ears in shock and anger: "Demon Lord, don't! ”
The black mist disappeared in an instant, and a faint light first appeared vaguely, and I tried my best to look to the side, and in the dazzling white light, Lu Yuan looked at me with a frown.
"Lu Yuan?"
"Demon Lord, this place is full of weirdness, we have to be careful, and this little guy has been very quiet since he came here!" As he spoke, Lu Yuan held up the little paper monster in his hand to my eyes.
The quiet and peaceful gaze of the little paper monster seemed to be able to see through my heart, like a cold sword straight into my heart.
After a while, the white light faded away, and I felt as weak as a newborn baby, the bones of my body ached as if they had been shattered, and my legs suddenly weakened, and my whole body fell backwards.
A pair of soft big hands slammed into my waist, and his voice was urgent: "Xiaofan, what's wrong with you?" ”
"White?" I stretched out my hand with great difficulty, trying to touch the corner of Xiao Yubai's smiling mouth.
You're finally smiling at me!
"Demon Lord? Are you okay? ”
"Demon Lord?"
Lu Yuan's nervous voice gradually became clear, and I wanted to touch Xiao Yubai's hand abruptly!
The face that was leaning over me, with a somewhat flustered expression that had been magnified many times, was not Xiao Yubai, but Lu Yuan!
"Lu Yuan?"
Suddenly I felt a splitting headache, and a voice in my head kept laughing, laughing, laughing so much that my heart was churning with anger!
Lu Yuan's face gradually turned into Xiao Yuanbai's face again, he was smiling and waving to me, and his mouth gently shouted "Xiaofan" to me, I suddenly wanted to break free of the shackles that bound me and ran towards Xiao Yubai, "Xubai? ”
Syllable!
Suddenly, there was a pain on my face, the sound of cicadas in my ears gradually subsided, and Lu Yuan raised his hand in front of my eyes and kept shaking it in front of my eyes, just like that, shaking and shaking, making me a little dizzy.
I couldn't help but shrink back, and then I realized that everything in front of me showed a very strange appearance.
The entire perimeter of the forest is surrounded by a group of hundred-year-old trees that resemble human shapes. From the moment I entered, I was in a terrible hallucination.
"Demon Lord?" Lu Yuan looked at me suspiciously, his hand slowly hanging to his side.
"Lu Yuan, keep an eye on the little paper monster!" I glanced at the little paper monster that Lu Yuan threw on the ground and reminded.
Then he walked straight to the foot of a hundred-year-old tree that was about to become a sperm in front of him, and as soon as his hand was raised, the big tree that had revealed a little human form immediately begged for mercy: "Lord Demon Lord, spare my life, I was also forced!" ”
"Here comes the sword!" A silver lightsaber whizzed into my hand.
"Lord Demon, spare me! …… And if you don't save that ghost, he's going to be wiped out soon! The fat body of the humanoid tree gradually revealed its human face, and its mouth opened and closed.
Ashes?
My mind went blank, my body trembled violently, and without thinking about it, I split the big tree in front of me in half with a single sword.
A piece of yellow rune paper fell from the collapsed tree.
In an instant, the thirst disappeared, the pain in the bones also subsided, and then looked around, where were those humanoid trees! The surroundings instantly reverted to the appearance of ordinary trees.
As soon as my feet were lifted to go deeper into the woods, I suddenly smelled a disgusting smell of blood, and I looked up in surprise, and my hand shook to the ground, and the lightsaber almost landed.
Xiao Yubai's whole body was transparent floating in mid-air, and when I stepped forward, he turned his eyes to look at me, his tightly locked eyebrows gradually melted, and his deep eyes became clear as a mirror.
After a while, he smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to me, "Qiu Die, it's good to see you before you die!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I was dumbfounded for a while, raised my hand, my fingertips just touched his body, and my hand shrank suddenly, "You are not him!" ”
Who knew that his face immediately turned gloomy, and his voice was cruel and vicious: "Ji Xiaofan! …… You're really ghostly! ”
"You act like him, but you're not him!" I glanced at Lu Yuan and planned to continue into the forest!
"Humph!"
A cold snort came from a tree not far away, and when I looked up, a man wearing a demon mask and a Taoist uniform was sitting on a branch!
I met that familiar gaze, and immediately flew down under the tree where he was sitting, and looked up at him, "Is that you?" …… You've changed. ”
The cold wind blew from behind him like a sharp blade, cutting through my bare skin. There was a love in those dark bottomless eyes that I couldn't understand.
He is no longer the little Taoist priest with a righteous spirit thousands of years ago, so close, the thick bloody qi on his body makes me sick!
If he doesn't go on the right path, he will also become a demon?
"Won't you save him?" As if burned by fire, a hoarse voice came from under the cold demon mask.
"Ji Xiaofan! You're lying to me again! Xiao Yubai roared behind me, I looked back at the more and more transparent familiar face, chuckled, turned my head to the Taoist priest, raised my palm and slowly closed it, "Don't do it, don't do it, you want to be a demon!" Don't you ...... too?"
The Taoist priest was still sitting on the tree, a gust of wind passed, blowing away the corner of his robe, revealing a piece of jade pendant that I am somewhat familiar with, the jade pendant seems to have been broken in half, the patched mark in the middle of the jade pendant pierced my eyes painfully, I raised my head suddenly, and panicked.
"How ...... Me Too"
"You ......" just came to my mouth, I swallowed it again, looking at the jade pendant, a trace of panic and uneasiness flashed in my eyes, as if there was a fault in my memory?
But I didn't dare to think about it, pointed the sword at the Taoist priest, and deliberately ignored the jade pendant, "Why didn't Xiao Yubai reincarnate!" ”
"Huh." The Taoist priest slammed his toes on the branches, stroked his sleeves, and suddenly there was a painful roar from behind Xiao Yubai, and I hurriedly turned around and looked back.
A circle of yellow rune paper trapped Xiao Yubai in the center, "Still not saved?" ”
The Taoist priest's hoarse voice revealed a faint coldness, my hand hanging down at my side clenched into a fist, slowly inhaled to calm the panicked heart, and when I turned my head again, I raised my hand suddenly, and countless little devils immediately surrounded the tree at the foot of the Taoist priest.
Even if he tried me again and again, I was pretty sure that Xiao Yubai just now was just an illusion, where was the real Xiao Yubai? And only he knows.
"Where is he?" I pretended to be calm, my fingers rubbing the cold blade of my sword, deliberately ignoring the painful roar behind me.
"Demon Lord, don't talk to him so much, he won't say anything, just eat him!" There was a flower in front of me, and by the time I reacted, Lu Yuan's kid had already jumped onto the tree, pinching the Taoist priest's neck, and turning back to yell at me.
At this moment, the Taoist priest's originally calm eyes suddenly flashed with a burst of blue light, and before I could open my mouth to remind Lu Yuan to be careful, with Lu Yuan's scream, his whole body fell heavily under the tree.
The group of little devils immediately became a mess, panicked, and even worse, some timid little devils cried loudly, and their bodies kept hitting the tree, with fear and panic written in their eyes.
"Ji Xiaofan, look at what you have become for that Xiao Yubai? Heh, these little devils are all of your ogres? Ha ha! The Taoist priest stimulated my emotions with his broken gong voice, which was worse than a ghost, and stood on the branch of the tree with a dignified attitude and looked down on me.
"Don't push me!" I only felt the blood in my chest rolling, and the silver spirit sword instantly turned red and shiny as if I had drunk blood. Suddenly felt that the corner of his clothes was pulled down, and when he looked down, Lu Yuan's mouth was full of blood, and his appearance was very miserable. But his eyes seemed to be pleading, "Demon Lord! Run! ”
"Ahh As soon as Lu Yuan's words fell, a wooden sword instantly pierced his chest.
