Chapter 50: A Lonely Grave in the Mountains

Huaiyu rolled his eyes slightly, and asked softly, "Who are you? How could you be attacked by the spider spirit?"

The girl looked up and saw an extremely handsome boy in purple asking her, and she looked stupid for a long time, and then said softly: "My name is Ah Lian, I am a villager of the quarry village under the mountain, yesterday I and my brother were collecting medicine on the nearby Xiaohuan Peak, and I met a very big spider spirit, and caught us both and wrapped them in a big tree. Last night, I took advantage of the spider spirits to go out to forage for food, and cut the web with a small scythe that I carried with me, and escaped, I didn't want to be found by these spider spirits just now, if it wasn't for a few immortals to rescue, I would have died like my brother. ”

Ah Lian said that tears rolled down like jade beads with broken strings, and Luo Xiang handed over a silk handkerchief with pity and comforted him beside him.

Dong Yuan's expression was indifferent and he didn't pay attention.

Huaiyu looked at Ah Lian coldly, and found that her clothes were torn in several places, her right leg was bloody, and she was obviously injured when she was attacked by the spider spirit, and asked in a low voice, "Is the injury on your leg important?"

Ah Lian gently stroked the wound, and her face immediately became extremely painful.

Seeing this, Huaiyu took out a healing talisman, and before he could cast it, Luo Xiang had already taken out a large green pill, put it in the palm of his hand, and dissolved it with spiritual power.

"Ah Lian girl, this is the elixir of my Luo family's healing, I will put it on for you. ”

"Thank you Luo Shaoxia. ”

Luo Xiang carefully cleaned Ah Lian's wound and applied medicine to her, and the pain on Ah Lian's face was much lessened.

Dong Yuan said coldly: "I've lost a lot of time, let's continue to go up the mountain." ”

Chen Hua pointed at Ah Lian, "What should she do? We don't have time to send her down the mountain now! Do you want to stay here?"

Luo Xiang's eyes rolled, and he shook his head vigorously: "It's too dangerous to stay here, who knows if there are any spider spirits nearby?" Why don't we take her up the mountain with us, anyway, if we find Gao Gongzi, we will go down the mountain." Besides, with the skills of a few of us, are we afraid that we won't be able to protect Miss Alian?"

Dong Yuan's eyes were deep and he looked at Huaiyu. Huaiyu's fingertips swept across his neck and said lightly, "Take it." ”

Ah Lian's eyes were full of gratitude, and she kept moving, and her mouth muttered: "The little woman thanks a few immortals for their rescue." ”

"You're welcome!" Luo Xiang squatted down with a smile, "Come, Miss Alian, you have a leg injury, and my brother carries you." ”

Ah Lian is still a girl after all, looking at Luo Xiang's broad back, her face is slightly red, and she doesn't dare to step forward, but looks at the only woman Chen Hua with pleading eyes.

"Hey, what are you shy, my brother is a righteous man——。 Luo Xiang's back collar was grabbed by Chen Hua, as easy as lifting a chicken, and put him aside, "Oops_β€”β€”, Chen Dali, what are you doing?"

Chen Hua ignored him, and in the next second, she had already lifted Ah Lian and put it on her back.

"Thank you, woman, for making you tired. Ah Lian whispered.

Chen Hua shook his head and said chicly: "I'm not tired." When I first started cultivating, I helped the sect's big kitchen every day to carry the sow up the mountain from the bottom of the mountain. You're lighter than a sow. ”

β€œ......”

Huaiyu couldn't help laughing, this Chen Hua is really a straightforward person, she likes Chen Hua's temperament more and more.

The group continued along the mountain road, and when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, the fog had dispersed a lot, and when they looked up, the five-colored clouds on the summit were shining.

Although it is a mountainside, because Caiyun Peak is thousands of feet high, the height of the mountainside is already very high, Huaiyu's physical strength is already poor, and his spiritual power is low, at this time, he is tired and panting, and he keeps wiping the sweat on his head.

Dong Yuan swept the sweat on Huaiyu's forehead and suddenly stopped.

Luo Xiang asked vigilantly, "Dongyuan Immortal Monarch, have you discovered the demonic qi?"

"I'm tired, take a break. ”

"Oh-ah?" Luo Xiang looked surprised, how could Jin Xian's cultivation also be tired?

Huaiyu glanced at Dong Yuan in surprise, obviously the only person who was tired here was himself, and the other three were as light as a swallow, what did he mean? A thought flashed through his mind quickly, could it be that Dong Yuan did this for her, Huaiyu immediately overturned this thought. Strictly speaking, they weren't even friends, they were a partnership at best, how could he care so much about himself.

While Huaiyu was thinking, everyone had already sat down on the big stone on the side of the road.

Luo Xiang enthusiastically helped Ah Lian down from Chen Hua, and greeted others on the side.

Huaiyu habitually looked around and found that there was a brown hawthorn tree behind the big stone, and under the dense foliage, the small, red-red fruit shone in the sunlight.

Ah Lian also seemed to find the hawthorn tree, and looked at the hawthorn in the tree in a daze.

Luo Xiang saw it and flattered: "Miss Ah Lian wants to eat hawthorn, so I'll pick it for you." ”

"No, no, Luo Shaoxia-"

Luo Xiang took a few steps to the foot of the hawthorn tree, lightly slapped his palm on the trunk, and then deftly took out a square handkerchief and spread it on his chest.

"Click-click-click-" The hawthorns on the tree jumped down one by one like little red dolls.

Luo Xiang's eyes were affectionate, looking at Ah Lian, not looking at the falling hawthorn, but his feet kept moving as if he had eyes, front and back, left and right, and none of the hawthorns fell on the handkerchief.

Huaiyu held his forehead, Luo Xiang was pretending to be cool again!

Chen Hua asked puzzledly, "Brother Qin, what is Luo Xiang doing?"

"Alas, Miss Chen, I have known Luo Xiang for so many years, and there is one thing he has never changed, that is, Luo Xiang pretends to be cool and will be in trouble. ”

"Huh, what do you mean?" Chen Hua's voice did not fall.

"Eh-" Luo Xiang seemed to step on something when he stepped back, and he fell on his back.

Huaiyu spread his hands, "I'm not wrong." ”

Ah Lian, who had been sitting quietly, saw that Luo Xiang had fallen, and walked over with a limp in a very concerned tone, "Luo Shaoxia, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, don't worry. Luo Xiang fell into the mud, seeing that Ah Lian cared so much about himself, his heart was happy, and he pretended to climb up in a chic manner, he looked back, and there was a dilapidated lonely grave behind him, and his face changed, "Bah-it's really unlucky!"

Huaiyu and a few people also walked over when they heard the sound, but they saw that on the stone tablet of the lonely tomb, the five words of Wang Nihua's tomb were scribbled, and the place where the monument was erected was empty, and the years and months of life and death were also empty.

"It's very perfunctory. Dong Yuan looked at the overgrown grave and frowned.

"It turns out that this is the tomb of Wang Nihua. Ah Lian whispered.

Huaiyu glanced at her and asked indifferently, "Do you know this woman?"

"I don't know her, but I've heard her story from the village elders. She's a heroine. ”

"Hero!?" Huaiyu was stunned, why was the hero buried so casually?

"Tell me the story of this heroine. Brother, I love to hear stories about heroines. Luo Xiang said shyly.

"I don't know much, but if you want to hear it, I'll tell you. ”

Ah Lian then told the story of this woman.

About 300 years ago, Wang Nihua's father was a well-known hunter, and her mother was a divination doctor in the village. She was beautiful and moving since she was a child, smart and clever, and when she grew up, she married a man who grew up in the same village, and the two were very affectionate.

At that time, there was a mountain god on the mountain of Caiyun Peak, and every three years, the village had to worship a young man to the mountain god. In the autumn of this year, the quota for worshipping the mountain god was drawn to Wang Nihua's husband, and the husband's family was at a loss, hugging his head and crying.

Wang Nihua, who loves her husband deeply, knocked him unconscious before her husband left, and then she pretended to be her husband, and was carried to the mountain instead of her husband as an offering, in the mountain temple, she accidentally found that the so-called mountain god was actually a white-haired mother rat sperm, she bravely shot the white-haired mother rat sperm with her father's hunting arrow, in addition to the harm for the people, but she was also sprayed by the venom of the white-haired mother rat, rotting her whole face.

When Wang Nihua returned home, she did not wait for the respect of the demon hero, but was disgusted by her husband because her appearance was ruined.

She was depressed, and soon became poisoned, and her husband, in order to marry someone else as soon as possible, nailed her dying to the coffin and buried her.

It didn't take long for Wang Nihua, the heroine of the demon extermination, to be forgotten by the villagers, and only a few elderly people occasionally mentioned that there was once such a girl who bravely fought to the death against demons for her husband and for the villagers.

When A-Mercy finished telling the story, the crowd fell silent.

Chen Hua clenched his fists and slammed it on the hawthorn tree.

"Whoa-" The falling hawthorn smashed to the ground.

Huaiyu's eyes were dim, he took out a transcendent talisman from his arms, pinched it in his hand, and said lightly to the tombstone: "This world is really indifferent and ruthless, I hope you will be reincarnated as soon as possible, and in the next life, you will not suffer these sufferings again." ”

Dong Yuan looked at Huaiyu, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, the corners of his lips were pursed, and he didn't say a word.

"Hmm-" The transcendence talisman changed into a dazzling white light, flashing in front of the grave.

Huaiyu looked at the white light, his brows moved slightly.
