Chapter Twenty-Eight: Haunted?

"Chirp"

After the rain, the sky is clear, the lush mountains and forests are filled with the fragrance of earth, and a rainbow emerges on the horizon of the haze that has dispersed the haze, hanging thousands of miles in the sky, rendering a little bright for the early morning after the rain. The chirping of birds breaks the silence of the early morning, but it also adds life to the silent mountain forest.

"Whew, keep going. ”

Outside the cave, Jiang Xiaoqi stretched his body to his heart's content, looked into the distance, looked at the gorgeous rainbow floating in the sky, his mind was soothed, and he greedily sucked the fresh air after the rain. After a short rest, the bonfire burning in the cave was extinguished, and then, Jiang Xiaoqi picked up the familiar small medicine basket, took out the wine bag and poured a mouthful of peach blossom brew into his mouth, a look of satisfaction appeared on his handsome face, and then, I saw his figure leap up the branches, no longer staying, and his figure flashed into the lush mountain forest.

As for Ximeng, he had already left after the rain last night, presumably rushing back to the sect with the rubbing of the spirit rune, after all, there is a time limit for the rubbing rune, and once it exceeds this time range, the spirit rune will become invalid. However, it is worth mentioning that Ximeng took Jiang Xiaoqi's freshly roasted leg of lamb before leaving, which made Jiang Xiaoqi stunned for a long time.

He didn't close his eyes all night, Jiang Xiaoqi's consciousness has been immersed in the inheritance left by the spirit rune master, and he has rubbed intricate patterns from the spirit rune like a cocoon, exploring the mystery.

As for the curse of the spirit rune master, Jiang Xiaoqi also had concerns in his heart, although Xi Meng's words after him could not be verified, it still made him feel at ease. But at the moment, there is no urgency, Miss Ximeng has also mentioned that only those monks who have studied the spirit rune to a deep level will have a curse, and then disappear inexplicably, and now he is almost not even a beginner, and he is still far from the so-called curse. He planned to return to the village and ask Old Man Shi about the information about the spirit rune master's lineage, and then make plans.

Three days later

"Bear"

Night fell again, and under a mountain cliff, Jiang Xiaoqi lit a bonfire, washed the paw prints on his shoulders with clean water, and a touch of pain swept over his handsome face. The foot-long paw print on his shoulder was left not long ago, deep to the bone, and blood flowed incessantly, staining his clean clothes red.

When it was getting late, Jiang Xiaoqi was forced to get involved in a big battle, two spirit beasts as high as mountains were fighting desperately, and Jiang Xiaoqi, who couldn't avoid it, was hit by an aftermath, just a bruise, leaving such a deep scar on his shoulder, which made him feel a little aggrieved while rejoicing.

After that, he was chased and killed by a spirit beast like a jackal, and fled for more than ten miles in embarrassment, and the jackal reluctantly left. It was a spirit beast that had almost reached the fourth-grade realm, almost equivalent to the upper star realm of a human martial artist, and when he encountered it, Jiang Xiaoqi had only the right to flee for his life.

However, there are also gains at the same time as grievances, danger is often the key to stimulating a person's potential, not long ago on the way to death, Jiang Xiaoqi finally opened up the thirty-first meridian, and only two meridians were left from the thirty-three meridians of the consummation.

However, Jiang Xiaoqi also knew in his heart that if he wanted to open up the last three meridians, he would be more powerful than ascending to the sky, and every time he wanted to open one, the spiritual power required would become more and more powerful, and with his current strength, it would still be difficult to get through the thirty-second meridian, and the difficulty could be imagined.

At this time, he couldn't help but wonder if someone had really passed through the last two meridians.

"Buzz"

Just as Jiang Xiaoqi was naked and washing his wounds, a message suddenly came from his mind, his soul power was released, and he saw a picture slowly emerging in the sea of souls. On the cliff, in the prototype of the spirit array he experimented, a black and white donkey struggled there, his round eyes staring at the spirit array under his feet, and his pupils flashed like a thief.

According to the reason, Jiang Xiaoqi's spiritual array is just for experiments, groping to learn the layout of the spirit array, and it does not have much power, and the fluctuations emitted in it are just a false appearance, the donkey can completely break free, but right now, the donkey is circling around the prototype of the spirit array, and the appearance of the thief's eyebrows and rat's eyes is like a thief who sneaks into someone to steal.

After bandaging the wound, Jiang Xiaoqi took out a neat shirt from the space bracelet and put it on, and after adding some dry firewood to the bonfire, he got up and walked, his body jumped and flew up, and walked towards the outside of the cliff, and that direction was the place where he laid the spirit array.

"This donkey looks a bit like a cow. ”

Coming with steps, Jiang Xiaoqi walked closer, looked at the donkey with thief eyebrows and rat eyes in the spirit array not far away, looked stunned, and said with some astonishment.

"Bah, little cub, you're the cow, and I see your whole family is a cow. ”

As if noticing Jiang Xiaoqi's arrival, the black and white donkey was not in a hurry to leave, but turned around, supported two huge ears, and shouted at Jiang Xiaoqi viciously with his teeth.

"Well, the donkey can talk. ”

The donkey in the spirit array suddenly spoke, which made Jiang Xiaoqi a little unexpected, his eyes suddenly flashed with a few hints of interest, and he walked to the outside of the spirit array, looked at the black and white donkey in front of him, and said leisurely.

"Phew, lowly human, come and worship your great master. ”

Looking at Jiang Xiaoqi's stunned expression, the donkey shook his tongue and spat it, and then, Jiang Xiaoqi was surprised to see that the black and white donkey in front of him stood upright on his legs and suddenly stood up. The two front hooves were crossed on his chest, one front hoof was raised under his feet, and he was horizontally on the other leg, looking down at Jiang Xiaoqi in front of him staggeringly, and the appearance of the magic stick was very similar to the fortune teller Jiang Xiaoqi had seen in his previous life.

"It's still the head of the man. ”

Jiang Xiaoqi ignored the donkey's magic stick style, and instead glanced at the donkey's bloated belly, his words were leisurely, and his eyes were mixed with a little ill will to stare at the donkey in front of him.

was looked at by Jiang Xiaoqi's leisurely gaze, the old donkey couldn't help but shudder, hurriedly put away the flickering appearance of the magic stick, stood with four hooves down, two big eyes squinted at Jiang Xiaoqi in front of him, his pupils revealed an extremely obvious brilliance of humanity, and his eyes were full of contempt.

"I haven't eaten dinner yet, why don't you come here?"

As he spoke, a flash of inspiration flashed in Jiang Xiaoqi's hand, and a crimson long knife appeared in his hand, glowing with a cold luster under the reflection of the moonlight. Then, Jiang Xiaoqi pretended to wipe the blade of the knife, and his eyes scanned back and forth on the body of the donkey in front of him, although he did not say it explicitly, the meaning was already obvious.

"Huhuhahe"

Looking at Jiang Xiaoqi's posture of unloading the mill and killing the donkey, the donkey's ears couldn't help but brink, and he hurriedly stood up, gestured twice with his two front hooves, and two clouds of white gas came out of his huge nostrils, and he had a posture of fighting if he didn't agree with him. However, under this vain posture, the old donkey's footsteps began to retreat, and a dodge swept out of the range of the spirit array, and his round eyes swirled, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Fighting, killing, and killing are all reckless people's style, how can a donkey like us do such a vulgar thing. If you are willing to worship me as a teacher, then the old man will pass on your supreme skills and make you the most respected powerhouse in the world, how about it?"

On the ground, the old donkey put down his hooves, slipped to Jiang Xiaoqi's side, licked the donkey's face and approached him, rolling two big eyes shamelessly, barking on a mouthful of big white teeth, and said so flickering at Jiang Xiaoqi beside him.

"Dare to ask you what kind of way the old man is doing now?"

Stretching out his hand to push away the donkey's huge head, Jiang Xiaoqi looked disgusted, glanced at it with two eyes like a donkey, and asked with a pretended to be serious.

"Listen, the old man used to be the strongest beast venerable on this continent, and he was also the only one who unified the spirit beast world. It's a pity that there is no opponent in the world, so he abolished his cultivation and started from scratch, just looking for an opponent for himself. After thousands of years, I really miss the days when the Lord had thousands of ups and downs. ”

Taking over Jiang Xiaoqi's words, the donkey Tian shamelessly began its "brilliant deeds", flicking his big tongue and gushing there, spitting stars flying all over the sky, and his big round eyes seemed to have traces of time flowing, if it weren't for its silly demeanor that was about to flow down, it would almost be true.

"I'm just a commoner with no pursuits, so you'd better realize your old man's ambitions by yourself. ”

The old donkey stood there with his tongue and told shamelessly, there was no discipline in his words, and he stood and jumped like a god, just a copper bell in his hand, and this guy could be completely equated with the god stick.

"Boy, you wait for me, the old man hasn't eaten. ”

Talking endlessly, the old donkey turned around but Jiang Xiaoqi's figure was gone, and the figure of the young man carrying the dark red long knife had long been gone, and he plucked out his ears from time to time, as if he could throw out the old donkey's magic stick remarks.

"Huh, when did there get an extra hole here?"

Standing outside the cliff, Jiang Xiaoqi's eyes were suspicious, his eyes looked at the dark cave that suddenly appeared next to the water stream below him, and his words were a little puzzled.

"It's so strong. ”

At this time, the black and white donkey also followed, looking at Jiang Xiaoqi's gaze, and a trace of surprise also flashed in his round eyes, panting heavily with two rows of big teeth.

"Go down and have a look. ”

Without much hesitation, Jiang Xiaoqi's figure jumped, moving and jumping on the concave and convex stone wall of the mountain cliff, and after a while, he came to the extinguished bonfire. Looking to the side, he turned his head to look at the smooth stone wall next to the waterfall. Before he left, he clearly remembered that this was a closed rock wall, and there was no cave to speak of, but now, a dark cave suddenly appeared there, and the cold wind whistled.

"Catch me. ”

At that moment, a wail came from the cliff, accompanied by the sound of the howling wind. Immediately, Jiang Xiaoqi looked up and saw a donkey with four feet facing the sky flying down, his two ears were blown backwards by the wind, his big mouth was bulging, and the gums of teeth were clearly visible.

"Bang"

The dull sound surrounded the valley, and the old donkey's huge body fell firmly beside Jiang Xiaoqi, and the bulging belly landed on the ground with a very elastic contraction, and then I saw the old donkey's body turn around, belly up, and once again had a close contact with the ground.

"Boy, it's not that let... Let you pick up... Catch me?"

With his stomach facing up, the old donkey's eyes were white, his tongue was casually hanging down to his mouth, and his nose was bubbling with white bubbles, and it took a long time to say such a sentence intermittently, and his huge front hooves were pulled indiscriminately, pointing at Jiang Xiaoqi who looked innocent beside him, rolling his eyes as if he was dead, and wanted to say a few more words but was dragged up by Jiang Xiaoqi.

Outside the dark entrance of the cave, Jiang Xiaoqi peeped in, trying to see what it looked like, but the light was dim, and he couldn't see what was in it at all. was going to release his soul power to visit, but Jiang Xiaoqi was surprised to find that after entering the dark cave in front of him, his soul power was inexplicably devoured, and he could no longer find the slightest trace, and this appearance also made him at a loss for a while.

"Why does this cave look familiar?"

On the side, the relieved old donkey shook his somewhat drowsy head, his eyes gradually focused, looking at the dark cave in front of him, his two ears swayed, and he stepped forward with his probe, and his two big eyes swirled, as if he was remembering something.

"You've seen it?"

Hearing the sound of surprise coming from beside him, Jiang Xiaoqi turned his head, with a little doubt in his eyes, and asked curiously.

"Don't look at me like that, I can't remember it, I just feel familiar. ”

The two big eyes glanced at Jiang Xiaoqi beside him, the old donkey stalked his neck, his huge nostrils spit bubbles, and said angrily.

"Brother Donkey, you see that you are burly, talented, and born with a peerless appearance, why don't you go in and take a look?"

With a turn of his eyes, Jiang Xiaoqi's eyes flashed with a touch of cunning, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he approached the old donkey, and said compliments without violating his will, with a posture of blowing the sky.

"I knew you little cub didn't hold back any good fart, why didn't you go in and have a look?"

The old donkey pulled his long face and looked at Jiang Xiaoqi beside him with disdain, as if he had already seen through the essence of this guy in his words. The hair all over his body stood on end, and his big dark face said refusal, and he had a posture of not going in if he was killed.

"Donkey brother, look, there's a treasure there. ”

Jiang Xiaoqi's mind moved, and then he saw that he deliberately made a surprised appearance, stretched out his hand and pointed to the dark cave in front of him, and his words resounded, and he was pretending to be excited, and he was about to step forward.

"Where, where?"

Hearing that there was a treasure, the old donkey's eyes were shining, his ears were as straight as wires, and he poked out a hoof to stop Jiang Xiaoqi's figure that he was about to take a step out, and took a step forward to look into the dark cave.

"Walk you. ”

With a joking, Jiang Xiaoqi flew up and kicked on the old donkey's buttocks, and the huge force fell on the old donkey, causing its whole body to tremble. After the wailing, the sound of the old donkey scolding came from the dark cave, and a few words had already greeted Jiang Xiaoqi's ancestors.

"Dog thief, you dare to yin Lao Tzu. ”

"No wonder I looked at you as cheap at the beginning, it's really hard to change your nature. ”

The insults were getting closer and closer, and soon after, Jiang Xiaoqi saw a huge donkey's head poking out of the dark cave, grinning with his tongue, both nostrils were bubbling with white air, and then, he saw the old donkey jump up on its hind legs, and directly threw Jiang Xiaoqi to the ground, and was about to bite him with big teeth.

"Okay, okay, donkey, I was wrong, but I really saw a baby just now. ”

Pulling the old donkey's big mouth with both hands, Jiang Xiaoqi hurriedly smiled, turned over and jumped up, and explained to the old donkey who was slanting at him in front of him.

"Brother Donkey, what did you see when you just went in?"

Approaching the old donkey with a smile, Jiang Xiaoqi learned from its cheap appearance and opened his mouth to interrogate, rubbing his little hands diligently to explore.

"I saw a hammer, it's so dark inside, I can't see anything clearly, I don't believe you can go in and see it yourself. ”

Suppressing the frightened mood in his heart, the old donkey still made the posture of Lao Tzu being the best in the world, glanced at Jiang Xiaoqi obliquely, his eyes scanned back and forth between the cave in front of him and the latter, and muttered to himself in his heart with a mouthful of big white teeth.

Looking at the old donkey's unbeaten posture, Jiang Xiaoqi moved his steps suspiciously, walked towards the entrance of the cave with his probe, looked at the dark space around him with a little curiosity, and walked forward with his footsteps. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xiaoqi felt that a huge donkey's hoof print was printed on his buttocks, and he didn't have to guess to know that it must have been done by the guy behind him.

The next moment, Jiang Xiaoqi was sent into the dark cave by the old donkey's hoof, and after staggering a few steps, he stood firm, his eyes began to look at the not dark environment in the cave, and his eyes looked around.

Suddenly, Jiang Xiaoqi felt a gust of wind on his neck, and turned his head suddenly, and then he saw the head of an unknown creature hanging upside down in front of him, with dark blood flowing on his face, which looked extremely hideous. The sudden appearance of the head startled Jiang Xiaoqi, but then, his eyes began to look at the skull that suddenly appeared in front of him. Then, Jiang Xiaoqi's eyes rolled, a cheap smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he recalled the palpitations that appeared on the old donkey's face just now, thinking that he should have been startled by this thing, so he couldn't help but scold his mother.

"Your uncle's. ”

Outside the cave, the old donkey heard the scolding sound coming from inside, and his big mouth with big teeth grinned to the root of his ears, lying on the ground and laughing, Jiang Xiaoqi's frightened appearance kept appearing in his mind, holding his bloated belly and laughing.

"Come in for me. ”

On the ground, just as the old donkey was smiling and leaning back together, I saw a fluffy paw grabbing the old donkey's hind hooves. After the words fell, the smile on the old donkey's face came to an abrupt end, and the cold hair stood on end, and his mind recalled the scene he had just seen in the cave, his eyes were full of horror, and his eyes looked at his hooves that were grabbed by the hairy claws, and immediately roared, and he was about to flee from this ghost place, but the force from the claws was too great, no matter how it struggled, it was difficult to get rid of the pull of the hairy claws, and he could only watch himself being dragged into the dark cave with no five fingers.

"Mom, it's haunted. ”
