Volume 1: Yellow Springs December Chapter 192: Eyes and Hearts
"Master, Master, it's not good! Sister Dai ran to the forbidden land! ”
When Wu Yuangui had just been dealing with Chi Li for a short time, Xi Yu stumbled over to report the news. He was upset, and shouted back when he stopped Chi Li's sword:
"What do you want!"
"It's none of my business!" She stamped her feet in a hurry, "I was fighting with her, and suddenly a deer rushed out of the roadside, and I took her away before I could see what was going on." ”
"Pure nonsense!"
"I didn't!"
"Stop talking nonsense-" She Jiu interrupted Wu Yuangui, "Kill her!" ”
Chi Li and Mo Liang exchanged glances, and the two quickly broke away from the battle and ran in the direction where Fang Cai Dailuan and them were fighting. Wu Yuangui stepped in to block it. Their expressions became solemn, and She Jiu's smile faded. Chiri believes that they must have some secret hidden, and is afraid that they will find out.
As he ran, a white shadow swept across the night sky ahead. Ikeri looked up and realized that it was a tengu. Mo Liang was a little surprised, and he said, "It's been a long time since the Tengu Clan has appeared in front of humans, unless...... It's an onmyoji with a blood pact. ”
I didn't have time to think about whether they were friends or foes, and the tengu had already noticed them. The white figure got closer and closer, and the mountains and seas jumped down and landed steadily in front of them.
"There's a girl, something must have happened—"
"They said Dai Luan had run away—"
The two parties were stunned for a moment at the same time, but seeing that Wu Yuangui was about to catch up, Mu Wan, who was about a person tall, couldn't help but pull Mo Liang, Mo Liang pulled Chi Li's hand, and they sat on the dog's back together. Without listening to anyone explain half a word, Mu Wan suddenly opened the umbrella and jumped down, and a black and white long-bodied monster appeared on the ground at the same time with light smoke, carrying her steadily.
Mu Wan rode Xun and whispered something in Tengu's ear, patted the white fur, and galloped away. Tengu lowered his stance to let Shanhai sit back, and he immediately drove it to fly in the opposite direction from Mu Wan.
"The mirror is on the woman!" She Jiu pointed at Mu Wan. There was no need for him to say more, as soon as Wu Yuangui whistled, the neighboring horses galloped over. Although Xun is a kind of monster with extremely strong endurance, this good horse is not inferior, and the short-range explosion is very fast, and it is about to catch up. And She Jiu looked at the shadow in the sky, but he was not in a hurry. He clapped his hands, and suddenly a dense black shadow burst out of the woods—all strange birds. Their coat color is unnatural and they are in poor condition, but they are frighteningly fast.
"Why are there so many ......birds in winter?" Shan Hai was puzzled, "Could it be the climate of the Snow Yan Valley." ”
Mo Liang turned his head to look at the flock of birds behind him and said:
"That's probably a little bit. But they were controlled...... I'm not sure if they're still alive. ”
A magpie screamed and took the lead in rushing forward, and its hoarse voice made people's hearts furious. At the end, Ikeri slashed its neck with a backhand sword. Mo Liang quickly grabbed it, and the bird body that had lost its head was still struggling, although it had no head, and the blood was not splashing everywhere, only a few dried black traces overflowed on the section. Its wings fluttered so violently that they had only seen fish with their heads cut off and gutted out, sometimes writhing on the board.
"Here, here are wounds."
Mo Liang opened the wings of the headless magpie, and at the junction with the body, there were two small holes, like needles.
"Probably a snake bite...... These wicked people, in my father's absence, dare to do evil here......"
Chi Li's eyes were full of hatred, and the mountains and seas didn't dare to look at her squarely. That's probably a good thing – anger is because of concern. It's just that the price paid is too heavy. If Xie Huayu and Dai Luan knew this, they might faint in anger.
Shanhai said: "If you can't let them catch up, they must be poisonous." ”
Chiri asked, "Is there any salvation?" ”
"No, it's dead."
Mo Liang replied. He pondered for a long time, then suddenly sat up straight, and struggled to stand up on the tengu's back. Chi Li was frightened and hurriedly grabbed him, and Shan Hai was also afraid that he would suddenly fall from a high altitude.
"I have a way." Mo Liang picked up the sword, "Although we can't save them, we can be freed and make us safer." ”
"Don't force it!" Shan Hai raised his voice and scolded, "Tengu can take us to find Ah Luan, just get rid of them......"
"I can't get rid of it. They will always be chasing, and if they are not dealt with here, even Ah Luan will be implicated. ”
Chi Li was silent, and it was inconvenient for the mountains and seas to stop anything. They had to be careful to stick out their arms beside him so that he would not fall. The air currents in the air were very strong, and his small body almost didn't stand a few times, which made the two of them nervous. Mo Liang erected the bone sword, and there were words in his mouth, and the mountains and seas could vaguely understand part of it. Pale blue light flowed from the blade of the sword, like an overflowing moonlight that could not be moved.
The next moment, he suddenly flicked his long sword, and a white light rushed away, like lightning. Along with an invisible barrier, some kind of wall of qi was pushed forward flatly, so that the birds that came into contact with the sword light screamed and were knocked to the ground. The momentum seemed to be a group of snakes illuminated by the light of the mirror, but the birds and finches did not disappear. Nothing can catch up with them anymore, Mo Liang let out a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He felt a little weak, and a feeling of exhaustion followed. At this time, another gust of cold wind made the other two people's eyelids hurt. They just shook their minds for a moment, and Mo Liang suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell like a fluttering feather.
The two of them were shocked, but fortunately, the tengu reacted quickly, and it immediately turned around in an arc in front of it and dived to catch the falling Mo Liang. Just as he was almost hitting the canopy, he landed precisely on the outstretched arms of Shanhai. Mo Liang was unharmed, and opened his eyes tiredly. But Shanhai felt a tingling pain in his hands, and his bones were about to be broken. No matter how he said it, he was also a martial arts practitioner, and he weighed it in his heart, and it shouldn't be a problem to slow down for a while.
"This juggling is really wonderful."
I don't know when, She Jiu was standing under this tree. He smiled and clapped his hands, as if he was really approving something. They didn't want to entangle with this person, they just wanted to find Dai Luan.
"So what?"
She Jiu suddenly waved his arms and threw out something as if he were in the water. Chi Li was worried that it was a hidden weapon, and raised his hand to make another sword, trying to hit it back. There was a crisp sound, and the reddish-brown liquid suddenly exploded in the air, splashing her all over, most of which landed on the tengu's body, staining her white fur red. Some fell on Mo Liang's face, like bloodstains.
"Hmm...... What the hell is this ......?"
Chi Li felt that what she had just hit was a porcelain bottle. You can also tell from the sound and debris. But she didn't know about these strange liquids, and what she was most worried about was poisonous. But at this time, Mo Liang stretched out his hand and touched the marks on his face, and licked it on his tongue again. Chi Li panicked, and opened his hand and scolded him.
Shan Hai comforted her that it seemed to be something non-toxic. Mo Liang tasted the taste and told her that it was indeed non-toxic.
"What's that?" She hurriedly wiped the water marks on her hands, "Have you ever felt uncomfortable?" Lack of energy? Dizzy? Sleepy? Disgusting? There must be something wrong with this medicine. ”
"Is there a problem...... She Jiu said lightly, "As for what the problem is, you should figure it out for yourself." ”
He suddenly turned around and left, leaving them in the air. But soon, countless sinuous snakes crawled in all directions again, much to their displeasure. Yamakai is ready to let the tengu take them away - after all, snakes are just a swarm of reptiles, and they can't fly into the sky with their wings. But at this time, the tengu didn't move. He patted it on the neck, and the tengu let out a pitiful whin.
Let's see that those snakes are still some distance away, and the mountains and seas are turned down to check the situation of the tengu.
"We haven't asked before. This tengu is your Shikigami? ”
"No, it's not. It's Liangqiu's. ”
"Is that so......" Chi Li pondered, "Could it be that you are not the master, so you can't summon it?" ”
Yamakai shook his head, saying that the tengu were a spiritual race, not dead-eyed like many other youkai. He frowned suddenly, and Mo Liang and Chi Li also went down to help him check. Mo Liang easily cut off an attacking snake. The mountains and seas broke open the beak of the tengu, and the heart was not good. The original red lining of the mouth turned black, and it was not pure black, but a very unnatural color, and the poison was generally densely covered with strange nets. The saliva secretion at the corners of the mouth is too much, and it is a sticky brownish-yellow color. Saliva fell to the ground and corroded the soil.
"What's wrong with it—what's wrong with it?" Chi Li parted the red hair, "Dao Chief, look here......"
Yamakai ran behind the tengu to look, and the skin under the hair was very mottled and the color was like rusty iron. There is also a bumpy touch on it, as if it is some kind of herpes, or a tumor. Shanhai's heart was cold, firstly, because he felt sorry for Tengu's pain, and secondly, he felt that he could not explain to Liangqiu. If so, it is probably that the current situation is by no means optimistic.
The terrifying black-purple veins also spread across the tengu's body, like a net, wrapping it tighter and tighter. It curled up in pain, and its muscles were twisted into a position that it would never have done on a daily basis. The roots of the fluff also begin to turn blue and crumble when pinched. Shanhai attached a talisman to it, recited a spell, and cast a spell to seal its spiritual power. The tengu slowly became smaller, like a large block of rapidly melting ice. It quickly became the size of an ordinary puppy, just as big as the illusion in Liangyue-kun at that time. The mountains and seas picked him up, like Ah Luan in swaddling clothes when he was young.
The disgusting animals approached, and the "hissing" sound came and went, making the night restless.
"I'll try again."
Mo Liang picked up the sword again, and was about to recite a spell, when he was snatched down by Chi Li.
"You're going to die!"
"Or we'll all die."
"I'll fight a way with the Taoist chief, and I'll figure out a way after that. They can't climb too fast, they just ......."
"It's useless." Mo Liang, who always seemed to be obedient, suddenly interrupted her, "You can also see that they will keep and keep putting together again, and if you can't make them disappear completely, they will chase after them." ”
"It's more cost-effective for three people to take the risk separately than for you to carry it alone." Chi Li grabbed his wrist, "Otherwise, when will those bones in your body that shouldn't belong to you disappear?" In the past, if you were serious about the competition, it would take three days. Won't they disappear one day? Except on your hands, on your back, on your legs, where else do you want to give birth to those things? ”
"It doesn't matter, they, they can always go away......"
"What about the sword? Has the knot gone away? Went down? You have always been obedient, and you listen to me again. ”
Mo Liang gripped the hilt of the sword in her hand hard, trying to snatch it back. Rin raised his hand and lit a circle of blue fire around him, temporarily making it impossible for the snakes to approach. But this is only temporary, not to mention that they still need to break out of the encirclement. He didn't understand the dispute between the two people, and he couldn't urge anything. He believed that they knew each other best, and he just hoped that they would be soon. Even if the three of them can hold on, I'm afraid that this tengu, who doesn't know what spell he has hit, won't be able to hold on.
In retrospect, it should have been done by Hunt Gongduo and Wu Yin. At that time, they took samples of the tengu's blood. All this is a conspiracy against them.
"It's okay, you're more important." Mo Liang swallowed his saliva, "The Snow Yan Sect is more important. I can die, I'm ......"
"You can die, but are you willing to die?"
Mo Liang looked into Chi Li's eyes. Her eyes trembled in the eerie blue firelight and incessant hissing.
He was a little confused: "So, should I die?" I do not know. Say, if you want me to die, I will die, and if you want me to live, I will live. ”
"The matter of life and death is naturally ...... It's up to you. But—"
The firelight shuddered.
"I want you to live."
