Niu Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard what I said about wanting to be with him to eliminate demons and defend the world, and then turned to look at me again and said to me, "Just don't make trouble with me."

He said to me again: "Ling'er, since you have come, it is better to follow me, and you will not be able to walk around." However, no matter what happens, you just have to take care of yourself, and I will take care of the rest. ”

The two of us did a brief search around the lake and at the foot of the mountain, but we didn't see any spiritual abnormalities around.

Niu Chen took me to find the resident Xiaoxian family here.

The owner of this family is surnamed Chang, and he is a kind old uncle, which is the letter he sent to Luo Xiaoshan.

Uncle Chang's family has a small population, only two old couples, and there is no Gaomen compound, so the two of them live outside Liubo Town, a quiet place.

A few ordinary dwellings were used as a place for the two of them to cultivate, and there were no servants and miscellaneous servants at home, and they belonged to ascetics.

Because of their kindness, the old couple began to practice five hundred years ago under the guidance of a heavenly immortal. Now, he has also been promoted from an ordinary mortal to an earth immortal.

According to Uncle Chang and Aunt Chang, in the territory of Xiping County, they have always been very peaceful, and there have been no demons and spirits before.

But in the last month, I don't know what happened, several hunters in the town who often go into the mountains to hunt suddenly disappeared, and when the family went into the mountains to look for them, they found that they had died on the edge of Liubo Lake.

The victims died in a miserable state, their faces were burned, and when they were found, they were unrecognizable, and some of the front and back of the chest seemed to be blurred by something, and the identity of the deceased could only be identified by the only remaining unburned and remaining fragments of clothes and decorations.

After the incident, the messengers in the county government of Xiping County also went into the mountains with Uncle Chang and searched for the murderer several times, but they all returned in vain.

The day before yesterday, another passer-by disappeared and was found and carried back by his family by the lake, still the same burned flesh and blood, as if he had been burned alive.

Uncle Chang felt that the frequent accidents in Liubo Lake in recent days were quite strange, and they were definitely not done by ordinary gangsters. It should have been some kind of evil magic or some ill-intentioned monk, so he asked someone to send a letter to Luo Xiao Mountain.

After we learned what happened at Uncle Chang's house, Niu Chen decided that we had to go back to the scene of the accident, near Liubo Lake, to take a closer look.

The bodies of the villagers who died have been collected by their relatives, because of the frequent accidents near the lake in recent days, the villagers rarely come to the mountains, and there is no trace of hunting and fishing in the past.

Moreover, after the incident, there was no one alive, and we could not find anyone who knew what was going on, and we could not find out what was going on, so we had no way to start for a while, and we could not find out the details, so we could only look for clues by the lake.

Niu Chen and I don't know whether there are spirits in this lake that have become spirits and surface to attack passers-by, or on this eagle's beak mountain, what kind of spirits attack passers-by when they go down the mountain to drink water, so they can only go around the lake to investigate first.

I walked around along the shore of the lake and didn't notice anything wrong with the lake, I saw an abandoned raft, placed on the edge of the lake, and pulled Niu Chen to go up, that is, I didn't find the mountain monster, why not enjoy the peace at this moment?

I rolled up my sleeve tube and used spiritual power to dial the water to help walk, Niu Chen quietly held the sword and stood at the other end, the green mountains and clear water are handsome young men, what a beautiful painting!

After searching for an afternoon, and without any clue, Niu Chen decided that we would stay by the lake tonight to find out if there would be any evil spirits at night.

He simply lit a bonfire on the shore of the lake near the edge of the forest, and sat down with his eyes closed and holding his soul jade Jiuxiao Sword that never left him.

I saw that the campfire was still good, close to the lake, just right for grilling fish. It's just that there is a lack of fish, the second brother is not there, and I can't point to that wooden cow Chen, so I can only go to the shallows of the lake to catch a few by myself.

Walking barefoot down into the lake, I always felt a pair of eyes staring at me. Looking back at Niu Chen, he still sat with his eyes closed. He tiptoed into the lake with a leaf of Biling Sword and looked at it carefully.

Suddenly, he felt a gust of hot wind coming from behind, and raised his hand to block it with the Yiye Biling Sword that was ready to stab the fish. A large bird flickered its wings to dodge the sword and rushed down at me. Fire spewed from my mouth, and sharp claws and hooks clamped my sword.

At the last moment, Niu Chen flew up and pushed me aside, but he couldn't avoid it, used his whole body to block the raging flames for me, turned his head, and immediately reached out and pulled out the Soul Jade Nine Heavens Sword, stabbing at the huge bird.

The giant bird has a broad head, a short beak and a sharp hook at the tip. The golden feathers on the front of the head are folded into a round face, and the ear feathers on both sides are raised high, like a cat and an eagle. The left eye seemed to have been badly wounded, and the blood was overflowing, which was extremely hideous. His right eye was wide open, and his gaze was like a bolt of lightning. Dodging the soul jade Nine Heavens sword, his feet and tail feathers stood firmly on the shore of the lake in a three-legged manner.

I once read in ancient books that this is supposed to be a thousand-year-old wandering bird. It is said that the ancestor of this bird was also a bird in ancient times. Later, she followed the female goddess of war in the world to fight in all directions, pacified the barbarians, made great achievements, and ranked among the immortals. He was awarded the title of "Night Owl God" by the Emperor of Heaven. His descendants inherited their ancestors and took care of the thieves who were in charge of the night on earth.

Niu Chen's back was burned by the fire and stuck to his clothes because he saved me, and he urged his spiritual power to use the Soul Jade Nine Heavens Sword, and at this time, the clothes on his back were stained red with blood.

The giant bird was nimble and agile, its wings fluttering, and its devil crying sound, like a hooked beak, sometimes breathing fire, sometimes pecking. Several times, Niu Chen was almost knocked off by the flickering wings of the giant bird.

I swung my sword to join the battle, although my uncle also taught us to practice swordsmanship, but mostly for self-preservation, and now I know that the embroidered sword is useless.

A few swords were stabbed at the big bird, but instead of hurting it in the slightest, it was slapped by its wings and fell to the raft by the lake.

"Ling'er!" The moment Niu Chen looked at me, he was grabbed by the feet of the wandering bird, flew up a few feet and threw it down fiercely, and fainted on the spot.

Seeing Niu Chen with my own eyes, being lifted by the giant bird, and falling to the ground and fainting, I was anxious.

"Brother Chen!" Crying, he hurriedly got up and rushed to his side, lifted him up, and held him in his arms.

Niu Chen's eyes were closed, his face was like ashes, blood spit out of his mouth, flowing down his mouth, on the back of his left shoulder, his clothes were glued to the flesh and blood, and the burned place was blurred with flesh and blood.

Seeing him in such a tragic state, I felt guilty and burst into tears.

Niu Chen just saved me, his back was burned by flames, and his spiritual power was blocked. At this time, I was distracted by the bird's wings, otherwise, with Niu Chen's spiritual cultivation, even if I couldn't completely subdue this bird, how could I get out of the whole body and not be seriously injured and unconscious.

Niu Chen was tired of me, and passed out injured and fell to the ground, this time, I finally caused him trouble.

And now, I will not be allowed time to grieve, and the wandering giant bird is whistling, and once again swooping down on us.

I also raised my sword to meet the enemy just now, and I was knocked off by his wings in a few moments, and now Niu Chen is seriously injured, and I have no choice.

I can only protect my body with spiritual power, close my eyes, and slam my hands vigorously towards the giant bird, and recite in my mouth what my uncle taught me, "The Tao is learned from the heart, and the heart is passed on with fake incense." Incense burns jade furnace, and the heart is in front of the emperor. The true spirit is looking forward to it, and the immortal is coming to Xuan. The order was made by the ministers, and it lasted for nine days. "I wish the incense god mantra, and pray that the patriarch can manifest the saint to help the two of us escape this catastrophe.

After fluttering for a while, the heat weakened, and gradually the sound of the wind brought out by the bird's wings became quieter.

I opened my eyes and saw that the huge wandering bird was no longer as fierce as before, and it had folded its wings and landed in front of us, as if it wanted to get closer to me and Niu Chen.
