Chapter 36: Clues

At this time, the stone vines far outside the city had slowed down, and she could smell a unique smell without the guidance of the little hooked snake, not far away.

The sun unconsciously climbed overhead, and the stone vines crouching on a branch were like a strange branch growing out, not moving at all. Her gaze was focused on an old tree not far away. Unlike the dense trees that surrounded it, the tree had lost all its branches and leaves and was bare. The leaves next to him rustled in the wind, as if they were whispering a mockery of the only anomaly.

Instead of paying attention to the unusual old tree, Shi Vine is a "half-person" who digs the soil under the tree. Why is it half? Because he has two ears with brown-black fur on the top of his head, he shakes from time to time to drive away flying insects. There was also a hat beside him, presumably to hide his ears.

Shi Manman once wondered why Xie Bingfeng didn't find the breath of her and the little hooked snake at the beginning, but later realized that it was the stone pendant she was wearing that covered up the demonic energy. I don't know why, but at least it's a good thing. So now that she is close to this demon, she has not been discovered by the other party.

In the moment when Shi Manvine observed, the goblin under the tree stopped digging the soil, reached into his arms and took it out, paused and muttered suspiciously, and then took out a black mass, the size of a palm.

As soon as the black thing was taken out, Shi Manvine immediately smelled a strong smell. If she hadn't been holding on to the branches, she might have been smoked off by the smell.

"Xiaoqiu, I stole your musk back. Don't be angry, look at this old tree, you're scared to lose all its leaves. Lu Guang put the musk back into the small pit he had dug and said as he filled in the soil.

"You wouldn't have been caught if you had listened to me. I won't go to a place where there are people again, and although I haven't helped you get revenge personally, I can't beat it...... Eh, don't be angry. "There was no wind, but I saw the bare branches and leaves dancing, making a crunching sound, as if they would break at any moment.

"I'm not done yet, the bad guy who bought your musk is dead. You will take half of your revenge. The hunter who robs you of musk, wait for him to be sixty, oh no, seventy years old and surely die of old age. I've lived longer than people, and when the time comes, I will take revenge for watching him die, okay? Lu Guang flattered and comforted the soul of nowhere, and there was no one behind him without any notice.

"You killed someone?" The cold voice did not carry a trace of emotion, and Shi Manman stood behind Lu Guang, who was still squatting on the ground.

She was ready for a possible fight, or a chase, with the other party. But before she released a cold murderous aura, she saw that the other party's back stiffened, and his ears kept going, and he fell crookedly to the side.

It looks like a handsome young man, with his eyes closed and seems to be out of breath. Shi Manman was frozen in place by the other party's actions, wondering that he was still alive a second ago, how to say that he was out of breath.

"Fake my death in front of my uncle, am I stupid?!" The little hooked snake spat out the letter, and the face of the snake, which could not see the emotion, showed a disdain that even the stone vines could understand.

The little hooked snake flicked through with its strength, and quickly wrapped around the neck of the goblin who was stiff on the ground, and its current length just wrapped around the opponent's neck, and there was still room to probe the opponent's snort. The strange tree rattled again, as if threatening, as if begging.

"Count three, if you don't wake up by yourself, Uncle Ben will wake you up." The letter of the little hooked snake was almost on the goblin's face.

"One ......"

"Start...... Got up. The little hooked snake didn't even finish the last word, and Lu Guang, who was holding his breath and pretending to be dead, opened his mouth tremblingly, preventing the little hooked snake from continuing to count. It wasn't that he deliberately pretended to be dead, Shi Manman's killing intent made him instinctively take protective measures.

"It's boring." The little hooked snake still didn't mean to come down from his neck, and it was still enjoying the taste of being feared by the other demons.

"You killed someone?" Shi Manman still asked the same thing coldly, his tone and expression did not change, the only difference was that he restrained his murderous aura.

"I didn't ...... No, it didn't kill...... When I went...... There was somebody lying there......" The goblin who fell to the ground waved his hand, and his teeth trembled with fear. He didn't notice the appearance of Shi Manman, which meant that the other party's cultivation was far above him, and Shi Manman did not have a trace of demonic energy on his body, and he had such skills and demon pets, except for the immortal cultivator, there was no one else.

Ever since the demons living in the human world had spiritual wisdom, they knew that meeting an immortal cultivator was equivalent to meeting the god of death. Unless some demons with profound cultivation make the other party feel scruples, the immortal cultivator is definitely the life terminator of the demon clan.

"Didn't you kill the doctor in the pharmacy yesterday?" Seeing that he was incoherent, Shi Manman thought that he was frightened by the little hooked snake and panicked. Reaching out and taking the little hooked snake down, he asked carefully again.

Looking at Shi Manman's outstretched hand, Lu Guang shrunk his neck. Without waiting for the expected death, he stared at Shi Manman, and shook his head vigorously with a slightly sluggish expression.

"What are you doing in the pharmacy?" Stone vine changed a question.

"Take ...... Take Xiaoqiu's musk. Lu Guang replied in a regular manner, not daring to delay for a moment.

"And then?" Shi Manman continued to ask.

"Back to ...... Back...... Over here. The other party's speech is still stumbling, because in his heart, the other party must be his own death after asking the question.

Shi Manman looked at Lu Guang's expression in his eyes without leaking, frowned and was silent for a moment, and then turned around and left neatly.

Lu Guang looked at Shi Manman's back in surprise, the other party didn't end his life.

"Leaving after a long night's work?" The little hooked snake grumbled.

"He's not lying, I can't waste my time on useless things." Shi Manman could feel that Lu Guang was not lying.

"Please wait...... Wait for ......" Lu Guang's hesitant voice sounded behind him.

Shi Manman stopped and looked back at Lu Guang, and saw him hesitating in three steps and one retreat.

The stone vines under the mottled shadows of the trees were obscured by a shadow, and the other half of the white face exposed to the sun reflected the sunlight, and the hazy halo looked fairy-like. Lu Guang was stunned by the "immortal qi" of Shi Manman's body, and he ran away as soon as the thing in his hand was tightly wrapped in his hand and threw his legs at the other party.

He still remembered that his deceased grandmother had told him that the stronger the immortal qi in his body, the more he should stay away, although he had never seen what immortal qi looked like.

Shi Manman looked at Lu Guang who disappeared into the woods, raised his slender hand and sniffed, and then looked at the little hooked snake. None of them sent out a killing intent, why did the goblin seem to be scared away?

Unable to think of why, Shi Manman looked down at what Lu Guang threw on the ground. A piece of jade in the shape of a copper coin landed at her feet, and she bent down to pick up the tassel inlaid with jade, and the jade swirled in the air for a moment before stopping.

Shi Manman brought the jade piece close to his nose and sniffed. There is the smell of Lu Guang, the smell of the doctor's blood, and a very unfamiliar smell.
