Chapter 177: The Ball of Light in a Dream
Huang Xue looked around, and at a glance, he saw that there was some hay on the ground in the corner of the cave, which was obviously the habitat of the owl, and next to the hay, there were his three cloud-piercing arrows.
She stepped forward and put away the three cloud-piercing arrows, and jokingly replied to the dragon-bearded tiger: "Then now that the owl is dead, you should live here too." ”
Hearing this, Long Xuhu suddenly felt a little moved, and said, "What about you?"
Huang Xue said: "Naturally, I want to go back to Dashang." ”
Long Xuhu frowned, it seemed that it was a little difficult to choose, and he said after a long time: "Forget it, I'll go to my father first, and when I find my father, we will go back here to live together." ”
When Huang Xue heard this, she suddenly remembered that in Western myths and legends, dragons seem to like shiny things, could it be that Chinese dragons also have this problem?
Long Xuhu suddenly spoke again: "It's not good, if you don't come with me, it will be boring." Huang Xue, can you find a way to bring these jade stones back to Dashang? I can build a cave like this in Dashang, and I can live and play with you, how good. ”
Huang Xue was stunned for a moment, so many jades, if they were brought back to the Great Shang, I am afraid that they would be richer than the Shang King! But if you want to bring these things back, I am afraid that it is not easy, the distance is far along the way, and there are many dangers, but there is no need to think about it now.
But seeing that Long Xuhu was staring at her with round eyes and looking at her expectantly at this time, she couldn't bear to refuse, so she had to say perfunctorily: "Wait for me to go back to Dashang and then find a way, but I can't bring it back this time." ”
Hearing her perfunctory meaning, the dragon bearded tiger let out an "oh" in disappointment, and stopped talking.
Of course, Huang Xue would not forget the purpose of coming to Gouwu Mountain, so he held a cloud-piercing arrow, cut a few pieces of jade, and put them into his own blanket. Seeing that the dragon beard looked at her with tiger eyes, he asked him to choose a few pieces, cut them off, and used them as toys for him.
After getting out of the jade cave and going down to Gouwu Mountain, the two of them did not go back to the village, calculated the direction, and went all the way to the North Mountain in the northwest. Nowadays, taking advantage of the thick snow on the ground, it is time-saving and labor-saving to rush with water escape, and if the snow melts, there is no such convenient means of transportation.
Beishan is one hundred and fifty miles away from Gouwu Mountain, and the two of them hurried with water escape, but it was only a day's journey.
Along the way, they saw several monsters that looked extremely fierce, but these monsters were not as fast as the Water Escape Technique, and they didn't want to cause more trouble, so they didn't dare to stop at all, and they didn't encounter too much trouble.
The only thing worth mentioning is that they encounter a strange human-faced spider on the way, and the spider's webs are slender but extremely tough. The two accidentally fell into a spider's web and were besieged by three human-faced spiders, and it took a lot of effort to kill the three spiders.
Before leaving, Huang Xue saw that there were a few complete cobwebs, so she became interested and put them away, thinking that it might be of some use in the future.
According to Shan Qiang, the North Mountain is winding for thousands of miles, and the mountain god lives on the highest peak of the North Mountain, which is very easy to recognize, and Huang Xue needs to sacrifice at the peak of this peak, so he can get the help of the mountain god.
The two of them only walked more than 100 miles, and then they saw a majestic mountain range, stretching far away, with no end in sight, according to Huang Xue's judgment, this should be the North Mountain. Huang Xue used the spirit sealing spell, and looked into the distance, only to see that there was indeed a very high mountain peak in the distance, which was straight into the clouds, extremely upright, and thought that it was where the mountain god was.
Seeing the target, the two were also relieved, and immediately decided to rush all the way to the foot of the mountain today, rest for one night, and then go up the mountain to worship on the next day.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, it was already getting dark, so they looked for a dry cave and wanted to rest for the night. The dragon bearded tiger was hungry again, and Huang Xue was helpless, so he went to the mountains and forests with him.
After looking for a while, Long Xuhu suddenly pricked up his ears and said, "Huang Xue, listen to it, there seems to be some strange sound." ”
Huang Xue was startled, afraid that it would be a powerful monster, so she hurriedly strengthened her ear power with a spirit sealing spell, and listened attentively. Sure enough, when I heard this, I heard a thick voice not far ahead: "Dang-Kang-Dang-Kang......"
Huang Xue was stunned for a moment, what do you mean? Her ear power is not as good as that of Long Xuhu, and she hurriedly asked him, "Do you hear what it is?"
Long Xuhu shook his head and said, "It seems that someone is talking, and I'm not sure, should we go and have a look?"
Huang Xue thought for a while and said, "Forget it, the cries of many monsters here are very strange, do you remember the owl, and the nephew, they are all like human voices, let's not make more trouble......" As she was speaking, she suddenly stopped, because the voice could be heard without the Spirit Sealing Spell at this time, in other words, the voice was getting closer and closer.
The dragon bearded tiger said: "Huang Xue, it seems to have come to our side." ”
Huang Xue hurriedly said, "Can you smell anything?"
Long Xuhu snorted and said, "It doesn't seem to be very big, but it smells good...... It doesn't seem like a great thing. ”
Hearing this, Huang Xue waved her right hand, took out a cloud-piercing arrow and held it in her hand, and walked slowly in the direction where the voice came.
The dragon bearded tiger said: "Huang Xue, aren't you going to watch it, why did you change your mind again?"
Huang Xue said helplessly: "It's coming, let's go and see it." ”
The two of them walked on secretly, only to hear the sound getting closer and closer, and finally, the two stopped their steps and looked at the animal that made the sound in front of them with a shocked expression.
The one who kept shouting "Dang-Kang-" turned out to be a little wild boar the size of a lamb, running in their direction.
The two looked at each other, and the dragon beard tiger swallowed his saliva and said, "Huang Xue, this ...... You can eat it, right? ”
Today, Huang Xue has long been immune to the strange sounds made by animals, she licked her lips, squinted and smiled: "There is a dish in my hometown, called roast suckling pig, I will make it for you to try today." ”
The cry of "dang-kang-" stopped abruptly, and Huang Xue and Longbeard Tiger happily carried the wild boar back to the camp. Huang Xue found a stream of water and disposed of the wild boar by herself, while Long Xuhu went to find Chai He as ordered.
That night, the two lit a bonfire and ate a delicious roast suckling pig. Before, Huang Xue found a lot of spices that were not available in the Central Plains on Kuafu Island, and today he saw that this wild boar was so fat, so he did not hesitate to use many spices on today's roast suckling pig.
This strange wild boar has a very peculiar taste, without the fishy smell of ordinary pork, but the taste is extremely sweet, melts in the mouth, even with Huang Xue's amount of rice, it is enough to eat three or four catties of meat, and the dragon beard tiger has eaten more than ten catties of meat alone, which is simply full of praise.
After eating enough meat, both of them felt a little tired, so they each curled up in the cave and fell asleep.
This night, Huang Xue had a strange dream, dreaming that she was in a void space, there was a fist-sized colorful ball of light in front of her eyes, and from time to time there were some inexplicable bands of light around it that shot into the ball of light, and the ball of light received those bands of light, and began to slowly expand, and finally swelled to the size of a human head, and Huang Xue woke up from her sleep.
When I woke up, I was refreshed, I felt that my whole body had inexhaustible strength, I looked at the dragon and tiger in the corner, and saw that he was sleeping soundly, and muttered two sentences from time to time, "delicious, delicious".
I went to the outside of the cave to find the stream water to wash up, and returned to the cave again, the dragon bearded tiger had woken up, and when he saw Huang Xue, he hurriedly said: "Huang Xue, I had a dream last night, and there was a big ball in the dream, and it tasted delicious." ”
Huang Xue was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "What kind of ball?"
The dragon bearded tiger smacked his lips, seemed to have a reminiscence, and said, "A blue ball, which was originally only the size of a wild boar eaten yesterday, turned out to be similar to a black pufferfish. Look at how intuitive and apt this description is!
When Huang Xue heard this, she was suddenly a little surprised, except for the color and size of the light ball, everything else was similar to her dream, which was really difficult to explain by coincidence. Could it be ......
Huang Xue thought like this, and looked at the wild boar that had eaten half of it yesterday, could it be that this wild boar can create dreams? It's not impossible, the obeth had a beautiful dream after eating it before, and the animals in this place are really weird and incomprehensible. However, the big ball of light wasn't a nightmare, and it didn't matter.
Originally, I had eaten a lot last night, and I should have eaten something light when I got up early in the morning, but for some reason, Huang Xue and Long Xuhu felt extremely hungry. So, considering that the remaining meat was not easy to take away, and it was a bit wasteful to stay here, he wiped out most of the meat, leaving only five or six catties, which were taken by the dragon and the tiger as snacks.
They still have to climb the mountain today, and the two of them don't want to waste time, so they simply cleaned up and set off to go up the main peak.
After walking for more than an hour, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened, and then a cold hunting wind blew in the woods, so that the two of them could not open their eyes.
Huang Xue thought it was going to snow or rain, but the wind seemed to be passing by, and it only blew for a moment before it stopped, and the originally dimmed light also brightened again.
The two rubbed their eyes and looked ahead again, but they were surprised to see a figure with their back to them two feet away.
Looking more closely at the figure's appearance, the horror in the hearts of the two was even greater, for the man in front of them was, at first glance, a man with long hair scattered, but from his waist down, he had no legs, but a snake's tail.
If it was Huang Xue in the past, she would naturally be scared half to death, but now that she has seen a lot, she has calmed down a lot.
It's okay, the human body is a snake tail, it's just a two-mixture, just like Diren and Shanhui, now even if it's a combination of three or four, she can do it indifferently.
Huang Xue was about to interrogate the identity of the other party, when the dragon bearded tiger on the side preemptively asked, "Who are you, why did you appear in front of us?"
When the man heard this, he suddenly turned around, and it was a handsome man, dressed in a blue shirt, and his hair was casually draped.
He didn't answer the dragon's question, but asked, "Who are you, and why are you on my mountain?"
