【One Hundred and One】The Intentions of the Earth Spirit (I)
Xiao Yu panicked in his heart, and fell step by step, but he moved firmly in that direction.
It was only at the moment when Lan Fei said that she was looking for it separately that she remembered that there was not only an immortal who worked on this Cuizhong Mountain, but also an earth spirit with unknown intentions. said that the earth spirit did not know his intentions, it was nothing more than because he had the identity of an earth immortal, but he still helped Xiao Yu, who was a demon.
After stumbling away from the lake that day, Xiaoxiao got lost in the mountains and forests. Cuizhong Mountain has a strong miasma, and she is a newcomer, so she can't find a place to go out. Thinking that his mother had been killed, and that he was at a loss here, he suddenly felt a little discouraged.
It was at that time that the earth spirit appeared, and he looked very kind, with his long beard fluttering in the wind, and the young Xiao Yu could not be wary of him when he saw him like this. So when the earth spirit said that he could take her to find a place to hide first, she immediately nodded.
She followed the earth spirit to the cave where he cultivated, the grass and trees were deep, but with a faint relaxing fragrance, she was afraid and tired, curled up in a corner, half-asleep and half-awake for a while, in a daze, hearing who the earth spirit was talking to.
She didn't speak, her ears pricked up.
I just listened to the earth spirit: "What are you kidding, the old man is also an earth immortal, although his status is not as good as yours, but he is not so depraved as a monster." ”
Then I heard the voice of her mother-killing enemy: "Hehehe, this is the best...... Don't let me catch you, an old immortal, or I'll have to look good!" After that, I could hear the rubbing of the clothes, and it seemed that the fairy had come out of the cave.
The Earth Spirit sighed and slowly walked over to Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu hurriedly closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep, but he smiled kindly and said, "The little guy's heart is beating so fast, don't sleep if you can't sleep." ”
Xiao Xiao flattened his mouth and wanted to choke, but he didn't want to show his cowardice in front of him, so he endured it and said, "If you want to kill, kill it, anyway, you immortals are not bad...... My mother is dead...... too."
"Alas......" the Earth Spirit sighed, "Little one, if I wanted to kill you, why did I save you back?" After a pause, "Do you know why there isn't a single monster on this Cuizhong Mountain?" That immortal is called Lu You, too eager for quick success, a qiē on this mountain...... Except for me, he has already gotten rid of them. "Seeing Xiaoxiao, he was a little surprised, "If it's a monster, he will get rid of it directly." If it is an immortal or an earth spirit, he will find an excuse to plant slander...... I'm still here because he can't get hold of me! ”
Xiao Yu was taken aback, but he didn't expect the fairy to be so unbearable. Timidly asked, "So, don't you have the strength to resist?" ”
"Resistance?" The earth spirit seemed to find it funny, "Don't say that his status is higher than mine, even if I am higher than him, I don't care to do such an unbearable thing." ”
……
The past is vivid, and at this moment, the drink is more certain of the thoughts in my heart. If it wasn't for the green glow of the matter on Cuizhong Mountain, if they couldn't find the answer, the earth spirit must be aware!
"I hope Sister Xile is fine...... Don't ...... anything," he thought, staring straight at the hole diagonally ahead.
There were still two last steps, but the Ink Shadow slammed in front of her and stopped her. Xiao Yu was taken aback by surprise and almost rolled down the cliff slope. Anyway, Lan Yao pulled her, and when she stood still, he asked, "You are so mysterious, what is it that you are hiding from us?" ”
Xiao Xi bit his lip, pointed to the hole helplessly, and told the matter of the earth spirit. At the end, he said: "He rarely comes out, saying that he is old and quiet." I don't want to...... I don't want to ......" when I encounter an explanation, I will always stutter and embarrass. But she didn't need to say anything more, Lan Yao also understood, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Well, I understand." But since I'm here, you don't want me to wait at the entrance of the cave, do you? ”
Xiao Xi immediately said, "No...... Don't ......" paused and whispered, "Brother Xiaoyao is also worried about Sister Xile, so naturally he wants to go in together." "Let's go one step ahead.
Lan Yao looked at her slender back, but there was another plan in his heart.
Even if Xiao Yu was reluctant to speculate on the beginning and end of this matter with the worst thoughts, Lan Yao always felt that the earth spirit, the green shadow, and the sudden disappearance of Xi Le were inseparable. After all, Xiao Yu himself said that in the entire Cuizhong Mountain, in addition to the green shadow, it is the spirit of the earth.
He knew that Xiao Yu had a good heart, so he certainly wouldn't want to go that way, but he began to take precautions, just in case he was attacked again.
In the secret language of the Fox Sect, he quietly contacted Lan Fei.
As the light around them dimmed, they went deeper and deeper. Xiao Yu was also anxious, trotting much faster than usual, and then she suddenly stopped and let out a soft "huh".
"Brother Xiaoyao, I'...... I don't feel alive here. Xiao Yu turned to look at Lan Yao.
At this time, the cave was already extremely dark, and if it weren't for the fox demon's natural good eyes, I'm afraid they would not be able to see each other clearly. Hearing this, Lan Yao also felt a little and said, "It's really not angry...... Is this the bottom of the cave? ”
"Well, we're done......," he paused, "don't the spirits live here anymore?" "Strange, here, it doesn't seem to be the same as before." I remember there was a lot of grass here, too, and -- "looking overhead," wasn't that wide. ”
"Could it be that you're misremembering?" Lan Yao sensed it again, but still didn't have any other anger.
"No, it's easy to remember here, and I have a good memory...... Hey, there's movement! He looked at the entrance of the cave with a drink.
But as the figure at the entrance of the cave approached, she was instantly disappointed. It's not the earth spirit, it's Lan Fei and Dugu Chen.
"......" glanced at Lan Yao, knowing that it was Lan Yao who called them, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but it was difficult to express it.
Lan Fei didn't know what to think about drinking, and asked, "...... you Why not light up here? I can see it clearly, but it's not exhaustive, right? "It's like this place is a tiger's den in Longtan.
Xiao Xi pinched his fingers and said, "Here...... There won't be anything to see clearly, as long as Sister Xile is not there, it will be gone! After a pause, "I don't know where the spirits have gone......
"Whew." The four of them were startled by a brief sound, they didn't even notice that there was anyone else here, but the voice was indeed clear and clear.
This time, there was no need for Lan Fei to say more, Xiao Yu took the initiative to take out the flint and light it, and the entire interior of the cave was clearly displayed in front of him.
All four were stunned.
On the innermost side of the station, there is a small hole, which stretches slightly as if a person is breathing.
"That's ...... What the? Xiao Drink stammered towards Lan Yao's side, afraid that he would be swallowed by accident.
"......" Lan Yao narrowed his eyes, tried to raise a fireball, and smashed it towards the small hole.
In a moment, the hole was not damaged in the slightest, but was a little bigger. The brief call appeared a few more times, making both Xiao Yu and Lan Fei shudder.
"Ah Chen......" Lan Fei looked at the cave, and her face was a little bad. She felt that it was possible that Xile was there, but there was no evidence. If you approach rashly, I am afraid that the hole will suddenly attack and swallow her, but it will really outweigh the losses.
"I remember that it was written in the book that the earth spirit itself can be transformed by all things, so it is also possible for mountains and rocks." Dugu Chen frowned slightly, "And the earth spirit will not leave the place of cultivation wantonly, that is the place where he was born, and the spiritual power is also the most abundant." ”
"So......" Xiao Yu looked thoughtfully at the hole, "this is the true body of the Earth Spirit?" ”
