Chapter 19 Songcheng School Palace
Lu Yi put away the silk net, pointed to the vulture on the ground and said: "This guy was summoned by the people of the village on the edge of Songling, he is strong, and he has killed a lot of snow monsters, but he has turned a blind eye to the leader of the snow monsters, the snow monster demon. ”
Aunt Hua shook her head and sighed: "These Yuan Demons, in order to eat more blood food, they accept the call to participate in the battle between other races, but they are very shrewd, they will never fight with the other party's Yuan Demon, but kill the other party's mortal race, which not only satisfies their own needs for blood food, but also ensures that there will be an endless stream of sacrifices in the future." ”
Lu Yi frowned: "In this way, they are no different from parasites." There is a sacrifice every year in Arashi Village, and maybe the flesh and blood of those cattle and sheep also entered the belly of this vulture. He only eats and doesn't work, and the cattle and sheep in our village are taken away by fierce beasts, and this guy never appears. ”
Aunt Hua looked at Lu Yi and said meaningfully: "But the human race is still very willing to believe that someone will bless and protect them, as long as they sacrifice with offerings." I've also heard that in some places, because they can't find enough offerings, they even bring dying old people or newborn babies to make up the numbers. ”
When Lu Yi heard this, he only felt a chill in his heart: "The people of Huangshi Village have built a special worship cave for Jinhuang, which is the largest and best cave in the entire village. But they didn't know at all that the golden phoenix was not a primordial demon, and they didn't need the blood food they offered. The people of the village did not even know what to worship, but they blindly and stubbornly worshipped. ”
He let out a long sigh: "Because they are afraid, afraid of the great power of the demon clan. They live in the forest, struggling to survive in the mouths of demon beasts for generations. On the one hand, they hated and resisted, and they would rather give up the last days of their lives than die with the enemy. On the one hand, they are afraid and reverent, and they don't even know who the person who is bowing down is, but they must believe sincerely. ”
Aunt Hua saw that he was depressed, walked over and touched the top of his head: "Don't be sad, what are you going to do with this vulture? ”
Lu Yi blinked: "What is it?"
Aunt Hua smiled lightly, walked to the headless corpse, stretched out her hand to grab the vulture's neck and gently pinched it, and a Yuan Dan with a stony luster inside lit up, the size of a red date.
With a slight effort in her hand, she only heard a crisp sound of "wave", and this Shi Yuandan was pinched to pieces.
She smiled: "Only by destroying this can you be completely at ease." Then, I take a look at ......"
She groaned and looked the corpse up and down, swiped her fingers, cut off a pair of wings, and then handed it to Lu Yi: "This is the most useful thing, and the others are so-so." ”
When the baby saw it, he leaned up close to his mother's thigh and began to rub: "Mom, I want it too." ”
Aunt Hua glared at her: "When you train your eyesight, I will fold a pair of wings for you." ”
"Yo-ho-"
Lu Yi inserted a pair of wings with a wingspan of more than twice his body on his back and soared high in the sky.
Mountains and mountains flashed beneath him, and clouds and mist surrounded him like smoke.
Lu Yi shouted excitedly: "It's so cool! It's too cool! It's too cool! I've never been so cool in my life!"
Xiao Yuan ran in the mountains and forests and stuck out his tongue: "Hey, slow down! I'm about to be crippled!"
Lu Yi laughed: "I'm sorry, Xiao Yuan, I'm not familiar with these wings, I can't fly with you, this is responsible for you." Well, what is this called? I just got my driver's license, and I don't dare to carry people on the highway haha!"
He runs the aura in his body, especially the thirty-five flood furnaces on his back, compared to the other hundred or so flood furnaces in his body, the flood furnaces here usually have relatively little cultivation, but at this time, the aura is full and full of power.
He seemed to be able to feel the aura sprout countless spider-silk tentacles, starting from the thirty-five furnaces and extending into a pair of steel wings.
He carefully understood the path of the aura, tried to make the aura run more smoothly in the wings, and found that the vulture's pair of steel wings had a special structure, which was more elaborate than the structure of the arms and legs of the human race.
The blood vessels, meridians, acupuncture points, the flow of blood, and the composition of the feathers at the tips are like an extremely sophisticated instrument, which can give the wings enough strength to strike a blow of steel, but at the same time have enough flexibility to bend and flapp in the air like flowing water.
He slowed down, spread his wings, let the smooth airflow support his body slowly, and closed his eyes to take in the key mysteries inside a pair of steel wings.
Unconsciously he slid in the wind for more than an hour, and when he looked down, he could already see the walls of Songcheng.
He slowly descended in height and glided in the direction of Arashi Village.
I have never looked down on the barren stone village from the sky, I don't know what kind of picture it will be? The more Lu Yi thought about it, the more excited he became.
The scenery in front of me is becoming more and more familiar, and you can already see the towering cliff where the village of Arashi is located, jutting out above the lush trees.
He continued to lower his altitude and swoop down towards the cliff.
When you get closer, you can see the trees on both sides of the mountain road, as well as the cattle and sheep in the village. But he was stunned.
The cattle and sheep were all lying on the ground, with blood stains on their bodies, and the bodies of one or two shepherds could be seen among them.
Lu Yi's heart lifted, instinctively raised his wings, and instead of landing immediately, he slid over the cliff.
He saw a terrible sight, pools of blood on the ground had accumulated into small pools, and among them were scattered a dozen broken arms and legs, all of which were blurred with flesh and blood, and it was impossible to see who it was.
All the animals were dead, the cave had been smashed and the interior was in shambles.
Attacked!
He circled around twice to make sure that there were no dangerous people at the scene, so he prepared to descend.
A strong air flow came from behind him, Lu Yi was startled, and was about to turn sideways to avoid it, but his shoulder had already been put on by a hand. "It's me!"
When he turned his head, it was the eagle owl, and at this time he showed his true body, and a pair of wings were twice as long as those behind Lu Yi.
Lu Yi hurriedly asked, "Uncle Xiao, what happened, what about Grandpa, Aunt Yao, and others?"
The eagle grabbed him and turned: "Go back to Songcheng and talk about it, they're fine." ”
When Lu Yi heard that they were fine, he put down a stone in his heart and recovered a lot.
At this moment, he was taken by the eagle owl to fly, and found that the turn was extremely smooth, much smoother and smoother than when he was flying, and he became excited again: "Uncle Xiao, you fly so well!"
The eagle glanced at him and said coldly: "Praise a bird for flying well, you are very good at talking!"
Lu Yi touched a cold sweat and obediently closed his mouth.
The eagle deliberately detoured some distances, turned a few more times, and explained carefully: "You see, I fly like this, the path is not horizontal, but to combine the wind direction, air current, and sometimes even a wave-like path. ”
Lu Yi hurriedly listened attentively, while figuring out a pair of steel wings, feeling the tactile sensation of the air flow from the surface. "Isn't that so? I think the closer you get to the ground, the harder it is to fly, but the higher it is to get up. ”
The eagle smiled: "Because of the complex terrain near the ground, there are naturally a lot of chaotic air currents. ”
The eagle flew all the way, explaining the skills of flying to Lu Yi all the way, crossed a mountain cliff, and saw the huge city of Songcheng in front of him.
The two landed in the backyard of the Xingyuan pawnshop, which is a very small courtyard with only three tiled houses, and the pawnshop forms a small quadrangle. A bayberry tree is planted in the yard, and the pawnshop is separated from the yard by a shadow wall, and a red maple is planted behind the shadow wall.
The eagle fell lightly to the ground, and then turned into the appearance of a black-robed man.
Lu Yi circled again, trying to find a suitable landing place. The bayberry tree was so large that it almost covered most of the sky in the small courtyard, and it was June, and some red fruit hung on it.
Lu Yi flapped his wings, avoided the branches of the bayberry tree, and landed in the corner of the yard.
He looked up and saw that it was Grandpa God, who was sitting on a small bench smoking a dry cigarette.
"Godgrandpa!" Lu Yi suddenly rushed over and hugged him, because the force was too strong, the two of them fell back together and fell to the ground with a thud.
Yao Gu came out of the West House when she heard the sound, and was surprised to see Lu Yi: "Ah Yi, you are back, you haven't seen anyone all day, but you have worried us to death." ”
Grandpa got up from the ground, rubbed the old bones, and glared at Lu Yi angrily: "Where did you go?"
Lu Yi told Xiao Yuan about the kidnapping in a few words, and hurriedly asked, "The village has been attacked, who did it?"
Grandpa sighed: "When you were not in the village, the A clan suddenly carried out an attack. Several villagers were killed before they had time to escape. The others are okay, follow us to Songcheng. ”
Lu Yi was stunned: "Why?"
Grandpa shook his head.
The eagle said: "There are also a lot of soldiers of the A clan outside Songcheng, I'm afraid it's going to be a war." Now there is martial law in the city. You can't go back to Arashi Village, so you can stay here for the time being. This yard is the private property of the pawnshop, the one where I live doubles as a storehouse, and the other two are used as dormitories for the shopkeepers. ”
He paced a few steps on the ground, coughed a few times, and said with a smile: "After the bald prince and the medicine aunt live here, I will have to find another place for the guy to live, which will naturally have to pay the rent." Are we traders and pay attention to fair trade ......"
After that, he looked at his godfather.
The bald man blushed slightly, and said, "I only have a few furs in my house, so if you want to take them." Money doesn't. ”
The medicine aunt hurriedly said: "I sold some medicinal materials for some money, and I will put it on for the bald man first, and it will not be too late for the bald man to have plenty of money in the future." ”
Bald Gong breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Yao Gu gratefully.
Yaogu took a bag of copper coins from the inner room, plus two jars of medicinal wine, and stuffed them into the carving owl.
The carving owl smiled and narrowed his eyes into lines: "It's too polite." ”
Yao Gu smiled: "As soon as we arrive in Songcheng, we can live in such a clean and decent yard, which is much better than other people in the village." I've heard that more and more mountain people are moving into the city, and the housing prices in the city are rising. Now we are not living on the streets, and we have to rely on the face of the lord. ”
The eagle smiled very happily: "Yao Gu is too good at talking, if our pawnshop can have a talent like Yao Gu, why worry about the lack of customers!"
Yao Gu hurriedly waved her hand: "I will refine the pill and boil the medicine, and nothing else." ”
The two were polite on the side, Lu Yi looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Then where do I live?"
Everyone's expressions suddenly fell, and they looked around, and all the houses were full.
The eagle was puzzled: "Why don't you squeeze in with someone? My house is also a storehouse, and there is really no place." ”
Then he looked at Yao Gu.
Yao Gu was embarrassed: "It's not very convenient." ”
The eagle nodded in understanding, and then looked at the bald man.
The bald man frowned and said bluntly: "This kid snores at night, and I can't sleep." ”
Lu Yi was depressed: "Godgrandpa, you also snore." ”
The eagle looked up to the sky and thought for a while, and suddenly high-fived: "There is." You can go to the Xue Palace! There is free room and board, and you can also learn skills from the master, killing multiple birds with one stone!"
Yao Gu admired the eagle's wit, and said with a smile: "Songcheng School Palace, I have heard of such a place for a long time!" Songcheng Ling Yin pays great attention to cultivating the next generation, gathers young people together, equips them with the best masters, teaches martial arts for free, and also orders the high-ranking people in the garrison to go to teach regularly, and he often goes. In the entire Yunling area, there are many towns that are much larger than Songcheng, and the school palace is not as good as here. Ah Yi went there, and it was a trivial matter to solve the problem of food and accommodation, but it was a great thing to be able to learn a good skill. ”
When Lu Yi heard her say this, he was also a little nervous in his heart, after all, he was a young man's heart, growing up in the mountains and countryside, and he was full of yearning for new things. So he hurriedly turned his head to look at Grandpa.
Grandpa was a little hesitant: "The three of us teach him, isn't it?"
The eagle owl was the only one among the few people on the scene who knew how to do grandpa, so he groaned and said with a smile: "Good is good, but after all, Ah Yi has no comparison reference, and he doesn't know whether he is good or bad." The school palace is different, there are many young people there, which may be an incentive for Ah Yi. Besides, you won't live with him. ”
Lu Yi glanced at his godfather resentfully.
Grandpa coughed: "Let him be." ”
