Chapter 2 The Pillar of the Cloud Section 26 It is difficult to choose between advance and retreat
Heaven is constant, manpower is poor, Wu Enqi returned in Burning Ridge in vain, so he had to take the flying boat back to Tiesuo Ridge to make another plan.
At the small restaurant in Tiesuo Ridge, Unqi sat at the table and shook his head and sighed, a copper rod leaning against the table, and the dream snake with its tail wrapped around the copper rod was stealing wine from Unqi's wine glass. Although it was buried alive the day before yesterday, it was still alive and well.
Dream Snake said: "Stupid toad, I thought you were bold enough to dare to challenge the elves! Alas! The people's hearts are not ancient! The boat people who used to be "brave enough to surpass me and have nothing to gain" have now become soft eggs, which is sad! Shameful! Ridiculous! Forty thousand human beings, ten thousand horses, where are the real brave people?"
Unqi asked for another glass of wine, took a sip, and ignored the Dream Snake's provocative words. In the past, he dared to shoot his sword against the old dragon for the sake of Mosa, and dared to open his eyes to the Holy Spirit for the sake of Monica, and that was because the two of them weighed enough in his heart, and Julan Tuya was obviously not so important that it was not worth his life.
Unchi smiled self-deprecatingly, he felt in his pocket, there was not much money left to rob, and it seemed impossible to rescue Julan Tuya.
In the evening of that day, Unqi and Aiyan sat on a rock in the Rope Ridge and talked secretly, and the dream-leading snake that entangled Unqi stretched its neck and eavesdropped on the copper staff. With it watching, Unqi had to give up the idea of taking Julan Tuya away.
"It's mid-March, and until May, nothing will happen on Burning Ridge. You stay here and keep an eye on Arslen for me, I have other important things to do when I go to Kaiyang Peak. β
Ai Yan said: "Toad, if there is something urgent, how can I contact you?"
"I don't know where I'm going, even I don't know where I'm going," said Uenchi. I'll go back to Rope Ridge once in a while, and I'll go to that liquor store for a drink, so keep an eye on that. After the middle of April, I will definitely come to you, and I will work hard for you during this time. β
After separating from Aiyan, Unqi rode aimlessly through the night in a stolen flying boat.
Below the mountain is the sea of illusory fire, and even in the deepest night, the mountain is lit with fire. The firelight shone on Unki's face, and confusion was written all over his face. He had always thought that the Pure Land Sect that had been driven back from the Demon Domain was a spy who had taken refuge in the Demon Clan, but it didn't seem to be the case. The Pure Land sect is trying to revive the boat people, and although the road ahead is bumpy, the right path in the world has always been like this.
Unqi asked himself if he didn't have such grand ambitions, nor did he have the courage to pull out mountains and reclaim the sea, the sun was about to rise, why should the flickering candle flame shine? Because he forcibly did something that he couldn't do, Unqi's godhead was taken away, and the more than 7,600 years of life he had tampered with the book of life and death were also written off.
Unqi shook his head in annoyance, his godhead and lifespan of more than 7,600 years were actually the benefits that the Holy Spirit asked him to do for her, so he gave him benefits, but Unqi took the benefits but refused to give in, and those benefits naturally no longer belonged to him. Losing those was helpless, but fortunately, the world snake was kind, at least he returned the sixty years of life that Unqi had been taken away by the Holy Spirit.
Wu Enqi thought about it, and while believing in the reins of the horse, before he knew it, he had crossed half of the Yunyun Mountain, and drove the flying boat back to Langyue Village. The dilapidated cave outside the village was empty, and Unqi turned around in a frustrated circle, with dried fish and grain, a well-laid bed, and a few sets of coarse cloth clothes beside the couch that belonged to Zhulan Tuya, but she should no longer need them again.
Unqi stepped forward and took the clothes in his hand from the couch, and out of it fell a small belly pocket of fine workmanship, which seemed to be specially prepared for the cute little baby, and sewed with great care for every stitch and thread. Wu Enqi was stunned for a moment, speechless. I can't see that Zhulan Tuya usually thinks long-term except for nymphomania, but she shouldn't need it anymore.
Unqi threw aside the clothes in his hand, sat on the couch and thought angrily: "That evil god who manipulates fate has actually taken a fancy to Zhulan Tuya, he wants her to pretend to be the princess of the Human Empire, she has now turned into a phoenix made of gold and jade, and it will probably not be long before Zhulan Tuya will forget about me completely." Those two evil gods are probably still playing chess, they can play as much as they want, at least I, Wuenqi, can live peacefully until seventy-seven before dying, which is wonderful!"
Unqi snorted and tilted his head on the couch, leaving all his ambitions behind, and it didn't take long for him to start dreaming of yellow sorghum. Before he woke up from the dream, Unqi felt a murderous aura full of malice, and he opened his eyes in a creep, and in front of him lay a behemoth, which was a dream-inducing snake, which was staring at him viciously with blood-red eyes.
Unqi was taken aback, the reason why the two-foot-long dream-guiding snake had become a behemoth was not because it had become bigger, but because in his sleep Unqi had turned into a three-legged toad again.
The dream snake hissed with a long snake letter and shouted: "Ugly toad, I knew that sooner or later you would be completely revealed! Hmph, hum, you dare to pinch my tail, and dare to pour cat urine on me, and you will bury me alive, see how this girl cleans you up!"
Unqi opened his mouth wide and said, "Ah!? So you are still a female snake! How did you get off the brass staff?"
The Dream Snake roared, "What a female snake, I'm a lady snake! Ugly toad, do you think my tail is stuck to the staff? I'll let you choose a way to die, do you want to be bitten to death or want to be strangled?"
Unch didn't want to die, so he turned around and ran, but how fast could a lame toad run?
Wu Enqi said: "Stupid snake, let me go quickly, otherwise I will make a trick and blow you into ashes." β
The lady snake said disdainfully: "Who is afraid of whom, you can try to blow it up? We are so close, you to ashes, and you will not be better." If you obediently submit to softness, I may spare you, you dare to threaten me, I will strangle!"
After that, the body of the lady snake became tighter and tighter, and Unqi felt as if his whole body was broken and tendons, and he couldn't even breathe, let alone start witchcraft. Uenqi struggled as hard as he could, but for the toad, the snake was their natural predator, and it was completely unthinkable. Unchi struggled for a few more minutes, his ribcage was completely strangled and he couldn't breathe or speak, his head tilted, and he passed out.
The lady snake screamed, "Ugly toad, you play dead! β
The toad Uenqi rolled his eyes and foamed at the mouth, completely unresponsive. The lady snake was frightened, and it quickly let go of the snake, but the big toad, which was dead just now, turned over and jumped up, opened its mouth and bit the neck of the lady snake. The lady snake shrank her head suddenly, he didn't move fast enough, she moved too panicked, and they collided head to head, face to face. The scene on the couch immediately changed from the lady snake hunting the toad to the naked boy and the white snake kissing passionately.
The lady serpent exclaimed, "O rascal, let me go." Help!
Wu Enqi grabbed the seven inches of the lady snake and sneered: "Stupid snake, if you are rude, I must make you a roasted snake this time......! Are you Julan Tuya?"
The lady snake spat out the snake and said, "Ugly toad, who will like you! I am the dream-guiding snake born from her dream." Because she has feelings for you, I am stubborn about you, and you should not be mistaken for thinking that I like you. Let go of me, you narcissistic rascal. β
Disappointmentd, Unch let go of his hand, hung his head, and sat down on the couch. After being changed back and forth several times, Unn Wizards finally woke up. In fact, he had been too naΓ―ve all along, and he had offended the Witch Mother, and it was the thief in the sack who had turned him into a three-legged toad. The Demon Mother was the root of all evil in the Three Realms and Six Domains, how could she let him go so easily?
The Demon Mother just wants to make him want something, so that he is a toad who wants to eat swan meat, although he can temporarily change back to human form, but after all, he can't escape her malicious play.
If he had nothing to do, he would immediately become an ugly toad, for she had not yet had fun playing with him, and she was going to play with him, until he had to abandon the pride in his heart, and lie on the ground like a spineless leper dog, and submit to her, and let him beat and scold him, for her to drive.
Unqi was furious in his heart, and viciously bitten the snake in front of him, this dream snake was born from the dream of Zhulan Tuya, but it did not obey her, but obeyed the orders of the world snake that was fighting against the demon mother Hiro, the Great Commander Worm Gu.
A thought crossed Unki's mind like a bright bolt of lightning: since the Demon Mother Hiro had turned him into a toad, why didn't he take refuge on the other side?
It seems that the Great Si Ming Gu wants to let the boat people leave the original demon realm and return to the Human Dragon Continent, if the future he foresees is credible, he is the one who will bring the boat people back to their hometown. If he returned to the Human Dragon Continent, wouldn't he have escaped from the clutches of the Demon Mother? Not only that, but all the boat people also escaped from this heavenless cage with him.
But Unqi thought about it and fell into despair again, for the future he foresaw described a tragic end: he returned to his homeland with the boatmen, but he himself died an unknown death due to the suspicion of the human emperor, and not only that, but even his heirs were cut down to the roots.
Unqi smiled bitterly and shook his head dejectedly. The Demon Clan's "Holy Text" says: "The Holy Spirit can pinch the thread of fate at will, even if it is as hard as iron." β
The Demon Clan's Holy Spirit is the Demon Mother Hiro, but Unqi is unwilling to bow to her no matter what. Wu Enqi used to be very puzzled, how could he have any virtue and how could he make the Demon Clan's Holy Spirit value him so much, but at this moment he had already understood that it was not him that the Demon Mother Hiro and the Great Commander Commander Gu had taken a fancy to, but the boat people of the Cloud Mountain.
