Chapter 20: The bandits are coming

Seeing this red fruit of a strange size like a bull's eye, Li Baiyi frowned, and his eyes were puzzled.

Because this fruit has nothing special except for the fiery red body, the other party actually used this fruit to make amends to Xiao Ash?

However, when he found Ash's shining eyes, he was stunned.

This was the first time he had seen Ash look so "out of shape".

I saw that Xiao Gray's eyes were shining, and the tumbling saliva was faintly visible between the slightly open mouths.

Seeing Xiao Ash's embarrassment like such a "gaffe", Li Baiyi was immediately embarrassed, but Gu Yu was not surprised when he saw Xiao Ash's appearance, but seduced: "Brother Monkey...... How about using this Fire Spirit Fruit to make amends?"

Xiao Ash heard Gu Yu's words, and then it "swished", snatched the Fire Spirit Fruit from Gu Yu's hand, and then opened its mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Seeing Xiao Ash's move, Li Baiyi was speechless, and just as he was about to scold Xiao Ash, Gu Yu raised his hand to stop it, and then he explained with a smile: "Little brother, don't blame it. This fire spirit fruit is a rare spirit fruit in the world, and ordinary people can eat it to strengthen their bodies, clear their brains and eyes. At the same time, this fire spirit fruit is also one of the three major spirit fruits loved by monkeys. So it's understandable that Brother Monkey had the gaffe just now. ”

Upon hearing Gu Yu's explanation, Li Baiyi suddenly realized, but he still glared at Xiao Ash in displeasure, and the latter grinned stupidly, and then turned his head away.

Li Baiyi looked at Gu Yu and said embarrassedly: "The monkey is not sensible, so Brother Gu laughed." ”

Gu Yu waved his hand indifferently and said, "It's okay." Then he looked at Li Baiyi and asked, "I see Brother Li's martial arts cultivation as extraordinary, but I don't know where Brother Li is going?"

Li Baiyi hesitated after hearing this: "I can't hide it, I'm going to go to the barracks to join the army." ”

After hearing this, a hint of strange color flashed in Gu Yu's eyes, and then he congratulated: "Then I wish Brother Li to rise step by step, and pay homage to the marquis!"

After hearing this, Li Baiyi smiled embarrassedly and said, "Brother Gu's words are really uplifting the little brother. The younger brother enlisted in the army this time to experience and improve his strength. Second, in order to be able to make small achievements, the villagers can be exempted from paying taxes on grain. ”

"Oh?" Hearing Li Baiyi's straightforward and simple words, a trace of surprise flashed in Gu Yu's eyes, and then he laughed and said, "Brother Li is really a good-hearted person, and I admire him." ”

Li Baiyi smiled and waved his hand and said: "In the next layman, what he does is also a mundane thing, where is there anything worthy of the admiration of the ancient brother." Then he changed his tone, bypassed the topic, and asked, "I wonder where Brother Gu is going?"

Gu Yu looked stunned after hearing this, and smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "Wander around the wandering wanderer, walk around, where is there any specific direction, where to go." ”

"By the way, I'm wandering around anyway, and your journey to the barracks isn't close, so I'll go with you. Gu Yu looked at the rain that was gradually stopping and smiled.

Li Baiyi nodded after hearing this, and said, "Okay." ”

Then the two turned around and went on the road, heading west.

On the way, Li Baiyi still couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Gu, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, what kind of magic power is the big mudra you just cast?"

Hearing Li Baiyi's straightforward words, Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Brother Li is cultivating alone, right?"

Li Baiyi scratched his head awkwardly after hearing this, and he didn't know why the other party asked like this.

However, seeing Li Baiyi's reaction, Gu Yu smiled heartily and said, "This Void Great Mudra is created by my perception of the laws of nature. Strictly speaking, it is not a complete supernatural power, at most it can only be regarded as an incomplete supernatural power. ”

Gu Yu then explained: "Divine power is a powerful combat skill created by a person with outstanding talent who has a sense of chance and is created. Its power is not fixed, but increases with the improvement of the caster's realm or strength. ”

After listening to Gu Yu's explanation, Li Baiyi looked stunned, and then the two began to compete for their foot strength.

"Brother Li, let's compete in the strength of the feet?" Seeing that Li Baiyi's foot strength was not weak, Gu Yu couldn't help but start thinking about testing Li Baiyi's strength.

Li Baiyi laughed after hearing this: "Okay!"

Immediately, the two of them suddenly jumped like two mountain spirit apes and ran wildly in the mountains and forests, and at the same time, the little gray behind the two was not far behind.

Seeing that Li Baiyi's foot strength was not weak, Gu Yu sped up his speed, jumped up, and jumped up like a wild goose, passing dozens of zhang away.

Seeing that Gu Yu's strength was so strong, Li Baiyi immediately exerted his strength, stepped on the branches in the forest under his feet, and chased after him as light as a swallow, just like this, the two of you chased after me, and the sky gradually darkened.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Li Baiyi and Gu Yu couldn't help but stop.

Glancing at the few clusters of lights at the foot of the mountain in front of him, Gu Yu glanced at Li Baiyi and said with a smile: "Why don't we spend the night in the mountain village in front of us tonight?"

Li Baiyi nodded, and then the two slowed down and slowly walked towards the mountain village in front.

Walking to the door of a farmhouse where the lights were still on, Li Baiyi glanced at Gu Yu, and then he knocked on the door.

As soon as I heard someone knocking on the door, there was a nervous breathing sound, and at the same time, a middle-aged woman's voice rang out.

"Who?"

After hearing this, Li Baiyi smiled politely: "Hello, excuse me." I'm on my way, and unfortunately there are no inns nearby, so I'd like to spend the night with you, can I?"

When they heard the voice of a child, the people in the room breathed a sigh of relief, and then the wooden door creaked open.

After the wooden door opened, a petite and slender figure appeared in front of Li Baiyi and Gu Yu.

I saw that the person in front of me was a young girl with a face as pure as a lotus, and her clear eyes looked at her curiously.

Seeing the innocent girl in front of her, the ancient jade gentleman smiled and said, "Don't you invite us in?"

The girl who was teased by Gu Yu, a wandering ranger, suddenly blushed, and at this time, a middle-aged woman in coarse cloth clothes walked over.

She glanced at Gu Yu and Li Baiyi with vigilant eyes, and saw that Li Baiyi was wearing the same coarse cloth clothes, but they were slightly better than those on her own, and the vigilance in her heart suddenly decreased.

"The two of you are ......," the middle-aged woman asked as she looked at Li Baiyi and Gu Yu without saying anything.

After hearing this, Gu Yu replied freely: "Ranger Gu Yu." ”

Li Baiyi looked at the middle-aged woman and replied apologetically: "Under Li Baiyi, a villager in Qingquan Village, Qingquan Town." ”

As soon as she heard Li Baiyi sincerely report to herself, the middle-aged woman's vigilance against Li Baiyi and Gu Yu in her heart was reduced again, and then she asked casually, "You two haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Li Baiyi and Gu Yu nodded after hearing this, and then Li Baiyi shook his head again and said, "We ate dry food." ”

Hearing Li Baiyi say this, Gu Yu also explained: "Yes, we have eaten." ”

The middle-aged woman listened to Li Baiyi and Gu Yu's words and smiled slightly: "If the two of you don't dislike it, you can stay in the side room for a night." ”

"Don't dislike it. ”

"Don't dislike it. ”

Li Baiyi and Gu Yu responded in unison.

The middle-aged woman's face stiffened after hearing this, and then she smiled and said, "The two of you rest, we won't disturb" Then she glanced at the girl, and the two returned to the next room.

Seeing that the middle-aged woman and the girl left, Li Baiyi and Gu Yu glanced at each other, and then walked towards the side room.

However, before the two of them could enter the side room, they suddenly heard a rapid and urgent gong sound outside the door, and then a panicked shout rang out.

"The bandits are coming! Run!"

Suddenly, the quiet mountain village exploded, and the sleeping mountain people got up in a panic and ran to the mountains with food.
