Volume 2 Chapter 15, Strange Figures
"This mountain is so high!" Xiaoye climbed a rock and stood on the rock waiting for Saro and Willow.
The rock was one of many protruding rocks, the part of the rock close to the ground was covered with moss, and the moonlight sprinkled the rocks on the mountain into a silvery white, leaving a terrifying shadow in the crevices of the rocks.
"How long will it take us to get to that tunnel!" At this time, Xiaoye turned gray, and the newly changed robe at the Xiliang Inn was hung in tatters by the edges and corners of the branches and rocks, and his hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat.
Saruo jumped up lightly, stretched out his hand and pulled the willow up, and the three of them rested on the rocks for a while.
Saruo looked at the scenery of the mountain being thrown down by them, and secretly sighed like Xiaoye in his heart: This mountain is really high!
They began to climb at sunset, until now the moon has climbed into the middle of the sky, and they have climbed for six hours, during which the terrain is slightly gentle, and the three of them have also used the body method, but until now they have not reached the place where Yang Liu often tells them, "It's almost there".
"It's almost there. Yang Liu said again. After a long walk, her body temperature rose, and she rolled up her sleeves slightly, revealing her snow-white arms, and reached out to brush the hair on her forehead.
Seeing Xiao Ye and Saruo's helpless eyes, she continued: "Don't look at me like that, this time it's really coming, climbing over the first few peaks, passing through two cliffs, passing through a dense forest, and then the entrance to the tunnel, but I don't want to rush anymore tonight, I have to find a place to rest, I'm too tired." ”
"Do you have to climb for a few days and nights?" said Saro helplessly, this is almost there? He sat on the stone with his ass and let the mountain wind blow dry his stinky sweat.
Of course, the place where you can spread your body is very comfortable to walk, but most of the mountains are steep rock walls, almost straight up, even in such a place, Sa Ruo can occasionally use the Feng Feitian body method, but after all, it is still too dangerous, and Xiao Ye and Yang Liu's body skills are not so clever, he has to climb up step by step with them.
"That's not it," Yang Liu also sat down, far away from Saruo and Xiaoye, "Hurry tomorrow morning, it is estimated that you can get to the entrance of the tunnel at noon!"
"What about the tunnel?" Xiao Ye asked in a low voice, his question was also what Saro was thinking: "How long does it take to pass through the tunnel?"
"Well, this ......," Yang Liu said, "you'll know when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, Saro had a bad premonition in his heart, seeing Xiao Ye fall on the rock all of a sudden, he really wanted to fall on it, but in front of Yang Liu, he was always a little restrained, and he didn't dare to be too presumptuous like Xiao Ye.
After saying this, Yang Liu stopped talking, closed her eyes, and began to regain her strength, and the night wind blew her hair away, revealing her face as beautiful as the moon at this time.
Sa Ruo couldn't help but feel a little demented when he looked at this peerless face, although this road was difficult to climb, did he really hope that this road would end soon, did he really want to face Sisi so soon, did he really dislike Yang Liu?
He couldn't figure it out, sometimes his heart was the most complicated thing in the world, Saro didn't want to think about it anymore, and he closed his eyes and began to regain his strength.
After recovering their strength, Yang Liu led them to find a place to sleep in the open tonight, and climbed a steep hill of almost 90 degrees, and they came to a large flat area in front of the towering cliff.
The cliffs were covered with green vines, dark green in the moonlight, and countless gravels scattered on the flat ground, and the grass grew among the rubble, and there were many flowers mixed in the grass, which were even more fragrant in the moonlight.
It's strange that Yang Liu has to work hard to camp here, and the scenery here is so good. Outside the flat land, there is a cliff, Saruo came to the edge of the flat land, the clouds between the cliffs are swirling, through the clouds, Xiliang City has become very far away, and the lights have become a little starlight here.
Saro walked around the edge of the flat ground and was surprised to find that the flat ground was a huge rock jutting out of the mountain.
He couldn't help but look at Yang Liu. Yang Liu seemed to see his thoughts: "Although the terrain here is dangerous, as long as you don't go over there, it's nothing, the general beasts here don't dare to come, if there are people with bad intentions, they can't easily find here, it's an excellent place for camping." ”
After saying this, she sat down close to the mountain wall and began to meditate and cultivate, her body covered in a layer of white light, which looked cold, faint, and like snow.
"Yang Liu is so beautiful!" Xiao Ye had another stupid expression, "It's just that I don't know why it's always so cold, if I can have such a woman with me, I am willing to die!"
Even if he was cultivating, the voice of the outside world could still be heard, and sure enough, Sa Ruo saw that the light on Yang Liu's body was slightly dim, and he was obviously shocked by Xiao Ye's words.
Sa Ruo's face was hot, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, Xiao Ye really shouldn't be so straightforward, but he didn't know how to speak, he was afraid that his words would hurt Yang Liu, so he said coldly after a while:
"Xiao Ye, don't talk nonsense all day long, you have this time, you might as well cultivate hard, haven't you found out these days, your cultivation is the lowest, don't you work hard, I'll go to cultivate!"
Sa Ruo sat down cross-legged after a long distance from Yang Liu, and the corner of his eye found that the light on Yang Liu's body had returned to normal, and he was relieved.
It's just that he found that Xiao Ye didn't plan to cultivate, he sat on the ground, his head was supported with both hands, his eyes didn't leave Yang Liu for a moment, and he sighed:
"Saruo, Saruo, I said that you kid doesn't understand the mood at all, such a beautiful scenery, such a beautiful woman in front, but you only know how to cultivate, don't know how to appreciate it, isn't it a pity, no wonder so many beauties have left you, you deserve to be a bachelor for a lifetime!"
Sa Ruo shook his head, this Xiao Ye became very unreasonable as soon as he saw the beauty, knowing that he was this character, Sa Ruo had no choice but to shake his head, bother to pay attention to him, close his eyes and cultivate.
His elixir is not very much, so this time he did not take the elixir, just run the "Divine Thunder Jue" to absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth, a moment later, his body was surrounded by the light of Qingbi, the light of Qingbi and the cold white light of the willow are far away, in this night, on the cliff, in front of the mountain wall, forming a strange scene.
I vaguely didn't know how long it had been, and Sa Ruo, who was cultivating, suddenly heard Xiao Ye's exclamation: "Hey, who are you, from the third watch in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?" The tone was full of horror, although Xiao Ye's cultivation was not very high, but ordinary things could not scare him.
Saruo hurriedly interrupted his cultivation and opened his eyes. I saw Xiao Ye standing opposite, looking at the mountain wall behind Saruo, his eyes frightened.
Saruo's figure spread, he had come to the side of Xiao Ye, looked at the mountain wall, and saw that there was a person hanging on the vines on the mountain wall, this person's figure was very empty, it was translucent, and through his figure, he could also see the vines behind him.
He was dressed in a black robe, but his face was very white, not ordinary white, it was a miserable white, his eyes were small, his lips were black, and he had a short beard on his chin, and his body was very light, and with the gentle swaying of the vines, the temperature here also became low because of his arrival.
For some reason, Saruo had a familiar feeling about this person.
Yang Liu also interrupted his cultivation, and quickly dodged to the side of Saruo and Xiao Ye, and the man slid down the vine to the flat ground, looking at them as if he was not looking at people, but at the three prey.
"Hahahaha......" his eyes showed excitement, "It's really good, it's good, it's a Xuanwu triple, a Xuanwu sevenfold, this female doll has also arrived, woo, Xuanwu fivefold, it seems that I finally found a host who is both young and highly cultivated." ”
"You're the guy we met on the street that afternoon?"
This person's short beard finally reminded Sa Ruo of him, he was the short bearded man he met on the streets of Xiliangcheng today, the old man who smiled excitedly when they passed by, but the cold feeling around this person made Sa Ruo have another sense of familiarity in his heart, and he couldn't remember it for a while.
"You have a good memory, yes, it's me, I knew my chance when I saw you today, so I followed you all the way here. The man looked at Sarah carefully.
"Why do I think you're so familiar, we haven't seen it anywhere else, but it doesn't matter, I have to think about it carefully, whether to use you as a host, or to take this two stunned people next to you as a host, your cultivation is high, and your talent seems to be very high, the kid next to you is a little less talented than you, that chick is the highest, but I won't take her as a host, because I'm a man, hahaha......"
He looked at Yang Liu evilly: "She's so beautiful, wait until I solve the two of you to enjoy it!"
"Enjoy your mother!" Xiao Ye heard him insult Yang Liu, so he rushed over angrily, "Lao Tzu will kill you first, and then let you enjoy it!"
It's just that he just rushed in front of the man, and before the iron arm fist could make a move, his whole body was knocked out and fell towards the cliff outside the flat ground.
The man laughed and said, "You kid is frizzy, I still use this cultivation as the highest host!"
