When the three of them returned to the uncle's house in Qiandeng Town, it was already when the moon was setting and the stars were sinking. On this night, the people of the town could not sleep at night. Although everyone is secretly glad that it is not themselves who were sent to Yaoguang Mountain, who can guarantee that it will not be themselves or their relatives next year, not to mention that even if it has nothing to do with themselves, it is a human life, and it is inevitable that there will be a sense of sadness for the rabbit and the fox.

The mayor of the town rushed to his uncle's house after the lantern fairy was sent up the mountain, and he had to wait for the three of them to return. It's just that seeing that it was the second half of the night, there was still no news of the three of them, so I was a little anxious, pacing back and forth in the house.

Finally, when the first rooster crow came from the distance, Du Ruo and Chongyuan helped the injured Chongshan push the door in. Seeing that the three of them were a little embarrassed, the mayor immediately greeted them and asked, "What's wrong with the three of you?"

Chongyuan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just some flesh wounds, it's just that my junior brother's arm is dislocated, may I ask the mayor of the town, is there a doctor in this town who has a straight bone?"

The mayor of the town wanted to ask him about the mountain god, but now that this person was not lightly injured, he thought about it and changed his words: "There is one on this street, I will take you there later, but this hero seems to be injured a lot, could it be that the mountain god is too arrogant?"

Chongyuan had already heard the mayor's words, but he also understood, after all, as the head of a town, the safety of the people in the town was his responsibility. "That mountain god has been killed by us, but it is only a turtle that has been cultivated for two or three hundred years. With that, he cast a spell and took out the turtle's corpse.

The mayor of the town saw that the turtle was indeed different from the mortal turtle, especially the gray-white wrinkles on his head for the first time, but he was still skeptical in his heart: "But really, this is the mountain god?"

Chongyuan said: "The mayor of the town can send someone up the mountain tomorrow to check, there are still traces of a fight in the place where the lantern sedan chair is parked." It's just that my brother's injury still needs to be dealt with at the moment, and I ask the mayor to take us to the doctor's house quickly. ”

The mayor of the town naturally did not dare to neglect the life-saving benefactor of the whole town, and hurriedly followed the uncle to take the three of them to the house of the orthopedic doctor on the corner. Although it was still early, the doctor immediately opened the door as soon as he heard that it was the mayor.

After picking up Chongshan's dislocated arm, the doctor treated Chongyuan's skin trauma. At this time, the sky was already bright, and there were still a few sparse stars on the pale cyan sky, and the mayor sent the three of them back to the uncle's house and hurried home. He was a little uneasy, and planned to send someone up the mountain to have a look.

The three of them couldn't sleep because they had something on their minds, so they sat together and didn't know where to speak. It was Chongshan who broke the silence first, "Senior brother, what should we do next?"

Chongyuan was also worried about this problem, but it was a little demon who escaped from Yihu who made them so embarrassed, and in the end, if it wasn't for the fat tiger's timely action, I'm afraid that he would have already lost his troops. Thinking of the fat tiger, his heart moved, this tanuki cat must be inextricably linked with the strange beast of the ancestor, so he said: "Let's go back to the Luofu faction first to inform the master of the situation this time, and the fat tiger, the master is well-informed, and he will definitely be able to find out the connection between it and the strange beast." ”

Du Ruo was distracted by the trip to Yihu at the moment, and since she saw the turtle, she felt faintly uneasy, as if there was an indescribable emotion tearing her apart, and her heart was inexplicably heavy. But listening to Chongyuan's words, she refuted: "Master's original intention was to let me find the opportunity of the Immortal Tribulation, but now it is inappropriate to return to the Luofu Sect without finding anything, if the senior brother feels that the situation is urgent, you can go back first, and then reunite in Yihu." ”

Chongyuan glanced at Du Ruo, he didn't expect her to say this, he was stunned, and said: "You don't practice enough, if you go alone, I'm afraid there will be accidents, it's better to go back to the Luofu Sect first, and then think about it in the long run." ”

"In this case, why bother like this, Senior Brother Chongshan and I will go first, and you will go back to the Luofu Sect to explain the situation and then come back. Du Ruo said lightly, although she was uneasy, she couldn't resist the feeling that she had to go.

Seeing her say this, Chongyuan knew that she had made up her mind, so he glanced at Chongshan with his afterglow, and said: "The injuries on the junior brother's body are not healed yet, why don't I and my junior sister go to Yihu Lake first, and the junior brother will go back to Luofu Mountain, which happens to be good for you to recuperate." ”

Chongshan nodded, it didn't matter where he went, but Chongyuan's recent words and deeds made him scratch his head. In the past, because he was the best among his brothers and sisters, he had always been obsessed with cultivation without asking about the world, and his temperament was also extremely arrogant, but recently he was a little abnormal, and he seemed to care too much about Du Ruo. However, this is Chongyuan's private matter, and he is inconvenient to ask.

Fortunately, the uncle brought a plate of baked cakes, a bowl of hot porridge and a plate of side dishes at this time, which also happened to break the slightly embarrassing atmosphere in the three-person room. Seeing that they were silent, the uncle guessed that they might have been too tired from a busy night and did not bother, and the sound of chewing baked cakes and hot porridge in his throat was unusually harmonious.

After breakfast, the sky had already dawned, and the milky white mist filled the streets and alleys, and Qiandeng Town had gradually woken up. The people sent by the mayor have confirmed that the mountain god has been destroyed, and the sound of gongs and drums that transmit the news resounded throughout Qiandeng Town, and the haze that had shrouded the hearts of all Qiandeng townspeople in the past two years disappeared in an instant.

The people who came to repay the gratitude and thanked them stepped on the threshold of the uncle's house, except for Chongshan who was a little more comfortable to deal with, Chongyuan and Du Ruo were both at a loss when they saw this situation for the first time, but fortunately, the mayor saw that the three of them were a little tired of coping, so he dismissed everyone, but the uncle's house was already full of thanks.

The three of them left the thank you gift to the uncle, and after finding a gap, they packed their luggage and hurried out of Qiandeng Town. Back in the woods that day, away from the post road, Chongyuan saw that there was no one around, and said, "Senior brother, let's say goodbye here!"

Chongshan arched his hand, and then attracted a piece of cloud, because he was injured, he didn't fly fast.

Chongyuan secretly glanced at Du Ruo, she was still as cold as before, but Chongyuan felt inexplicably relieved, looked at the sun, and said, "Senior sister, it's time for us to set off." With that, the two of them made a trick and flew away to the west.
