“……”

Sure enough, just as the little boy who boldly rushed out of the crowd and cried and shouted to Li Bai to 'inform', the cave where the so-called 'mountain god' lived was indeed very easy to find.

Although the mountain is high and the forest is deep and the road is dangerous halfway up the mountain, when Li Bai rushed all the way up, he saw at a glance the dark cave like a huge mouth of blood basin opened by the mountain, but it was surrounded by dense and tall trees, and their dense canopy directly completely blocked the view from the bottom of the mountain, so that when standing at the bottom of the mountain, he couldn't see it at all?

However, none of those things mattered, because Li Bai only knew now, judging from the traces and fresh footprints he found when he rushed up all the way, this cave was obviously the place he was looking for!

"Humph!!"

Click!

The sharp and crazy eyes stared at the cave for a look, and did not find anything abnormal inside, but he saw more messy footprints on the dust and moss inside and outside the cave, some of which were in, and the other part was out, and after seeing that there were really a pair of slightly slender footprints belonging to Mei'er, Li Bai did not hesitate anymore, directly snorted coldly, and rushed in again with the long sword in his hand along those well-tracked footprints.

Now, he wants to go in and see, where is the so-called mountain god?

And ah, it's better that the other party doesn't hurt his sister Mei'er, otherwise......

He Li Bai doesn't care whether the other party is a 'mountain god', a 'river god' or a 'heavenly god' or a 'great god', the three-foot long sword in his Li Bai's hand doesn't recognize people!

When the time comes, even if he really can't beat him, even if he is not the opponent of the other party, he Li Bai will poke a few holes in the opponent's body to the death!

He must let the other party know that if he eats people casually, especially if he hurts his Li Bai's sister, then there will definitely be no good end!

“！！”

After rushing in, according to those messy and conspicuous fresh footprints, Li Bai didn't chase the wrong place, just like that, regardless of the chaotic heart, while rushing inside at high speed.

"Over here!"

Speaking of which......

It has been six years since he Li Bai came to this world, came to Changganli and settled.

Except for the beginning, he was shocked by the fact that he didn't know who the name of the county order begged for rain, for so many years, he had almost never seen or heard anything about those gods or demons in the vicinity, and he almost forgot that there was still that thing, and the daily sword practice was just a daily habit under boredom.

But today, the cruel reality taught him a lesson when he relaxed a little, and let him know what the truth of this world is.

“……”

This cave was not deep, and soon, Li Bai, who was panting and his heart was also turning a thousand times, rushed to a huge hinterland full of stalactites hanging upside down in the cave.

"This should be the ......"

He saw that it was here that the messy footprints began to turn back, leaving only the footprints of Mei'er and another, smaller person.

And, of course, the two charred black torches that had long since been extinguished and were stuck in the muddy ground.

And then, Li Bai, who was worried, also found that he didn't see anyone here, but only their large and small footprints were scattered here more evenly, as if they were abandoned here, they supported each other to observe the surrounding environment?

"Mei'er ......"

Li Bai couldn't imagine what kind of hesitation and helplessness they felt in this dark and terrifying cave when those stupid villagers hurriedly abandoned them and left, leaving only her and the younger boy.

However, Li Bai, who had a broken heart, didn't have time to think about that, he just searched and observed quickly and anxiously in the dark with his eyes that could see like day.

It didn't take long for him to find out that Mei'er's footprints had suddenly disappeared in one place, and they had been replaced...... It was a messy footprint that he couldn't tell what kind of animal it was? And, you can see that it's obviously a four-legged walker?

Of course, in addition to those footprints, Li Bai also found that there were many struggling and rolling indentations on the ground around him, as well as the bones of animals that he didn't know what they were, which were piled up in that corner of this cave, and mixed with those things he didn't know what they were, emitting a disgusting stench?

But that doesn't matter!

Li Bai still continued to search the huge cave quickly with his eyes that were tearing away, wanting to get more clues about Mei'er's safe escape or whether she was not harmed.

“！！”

Although he was very anxious in his heart, Li Bai, who had to observe carefully with an unusually sober mind, soon found that there seemed to be no fresh bones or clothes and fabrics belonging to women here, but he quickly discovered a situation that made him almost want to vomit blood:

Over there, on the huge, cracked rock that seemed to be polished by something often prone and somewhat smooth, there was a puddle of fairly fresh blood, and in the crevice of the stone, a half-fresh paw?

It was just like that, stuck in the crevice of the rock beside the hideous, dry and dark bloodstain, stuck between the two flat boulders, pale and helpless......

"Uh......"

Although it wasn't Mei'er's, Li Bai couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart, and then sighed sadly, staggered back and involuntarily stared at his round eyes and thought:

Since the other person who was used as a sacrifice was eaten to the point that only a piece was stuffed into the cracks of the stone, it was said from time to time that his green plum sister had already been eaten by that monster with meat and slag? And the reason why there is still some of it is only because it accidentally fell into the crack in the stone and it is difficult to get out, or because the 'mountain god' evil animal has already eaten, so it is too lazy to pull it out of the crack in the stone?

“！！”

"That's ......"

Soon, Li Bai, who became a little agitated because of some not very good speculations, and even his breathing was a little short, made a new discovery: it was a broken mobile phone, which seemed to have been stepped on, parts were spilled everywhere, and the screen was directly broken, and it was covered with black and brown bloodstains.

There is no doubt that that thing was brought by him Li Bai from another world, and this is the only one in this world! It's just that because it has long been out of power, and Li Bai can't get a charging device, he has long been given to his Qingmei sister to use as a mirror, and he has always been carried by the other party with a treasure!

And now, it has become like this, so it goes without saying what is the situation of its owner......

"Huh!"

After choking out a voice that he didn't know what emotion it was, Li Bai no longer had any illusions.

He knew that his Mei'er sister, the sister who always stuck to him, pestered him, bullied him from time to time, beat him, or always liked to be funny, was no longer there......

“！！”

"What a bullshit mountain god, what a bullshit world......"

"Hah! Ha ha! ”

"Why can you be so ruthless?!"

If he hadn't seen the phantom of the golden dragon that appeared there, Li Bai would definitely feel that the superstitious thing of sacrificing to the mountain god was just a vicious trick that harmed people's lives because of the ignorance and ignorance of the villagers...... At this time, seeing all kinds of things here, he felt a sharp pain like tearing out his heart and bones, but his impression of those fairies and ghosts was even more profound!

He felt the world, the deep malice that some presence had towards him.

It's just that he doesn't understand a little bit, asking the dragon king for rain only requires three animals and sacrifices, why would a guy who doesn't know if he is a mountain god be so greedy and want human life?!

Could it be that the more low-level guys are, the more greedy, the more cruel, the more insatiable, and the more they will hurt each other?

Of course......

It's also possible that there is something wrong with that so-called mountain god!

If the other party is a serious immortal, how can there be such an unreasonable demand to pay tribute to boys and girls? Presumably, there must be a monster doing something here, right?

It must be like that......

But whether it is or not, those things have nothing to do with Li Bai, and he doesn't want to go to the root cause anymore, he only knows now that his sister Mei'er was sent here, and now, she is gone, and the whole person is gone......

"Huh!"

Qiang~!

Ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has not been tried.

Inevitably, Li Bai, who directly pulled out the iron sword in his hand, looked at the sharpened blade that was polished to a bright and smooth sword, and couldn't help but think of the five-character quatrain composed by the same Tang Dynasty poet Jia Dao.

"Today, I will ask you, who has a grievance?"

"Huh!"

After laughing at himself and sorrowfully, his trembling hand holding the sword gradually became calm and firm.

"I have grievances myself, here, here and this place have grievances!!"

That's it!

After thinking about it, calming down for a while, and no longer thinking about it, Li Bai's originally sad, helpless and desolate eyes suddenly changed, becoming as cold and ruthless as a sword in his hand, and his expression was as hideous as a beast that wants to choose people to devour...... At the same time, the sword qi in his body was also constantly filling and superimposing under the effect of his emotions, and it also shook the surrounding air, causing them to tremble and silently surge into inexplicable cyclones?

"Phew!!"

A roar erupted and shook in the dark, damp, foul-smelling cavern filled with animal or human bones.

"Where are the youkai?"

"Hurry up and return my Mei'er's life!!"

Li Bai didn't have time to slowly find out the other party along those complicated small caves, and he didn't want to think about whether he could beat the other party, and now he only had endless sorrow and anger in his heart, so he just wanted to use the fastest speed to lure out the evil beast who didn't know what its origin was, and then kill it, peel it off its skin and cramp, poke it to the bones and ashes to vent the hatred in his heart!!

'Mei'er is ......'

'Destiny ......'

'Come on, come on, .......'

‘……’

The echo in the cave first transmitted back and forth and reflected in a circle, but soon the silence slowly calmed down, except for the heavy breathing sound of Li Bai in this empty cave, it seemed that nothing had happened.

‘！！ ’

However, Li Bai was not made to wait for a long time, and soon there was movement in the deeper part of the cave.

Whew~!

With Li Bai's provocative roar, soon bursts of yin wind poured out from the depths of a certain cave, and at the same time, there were bursts of hurried, distant and near, stumbling footsteps and low whimpering.

'Woohoo......'

Soon, a huge black shadow rushed out of the forked cave and rushed behind Li Bai with a gust of fishy wind, and cunningly blocked the only passage he had to leave the cave.

“！！”

Li Bai, who was extremely angry and sad, never thought about running away at all, and he was even less afraid.

He just turned around for the first time and looked at it, and soon found that the other party was indeed a beast, and even in the cave in the dark night, he could see at a glance that the other party's whole body was that weird dark red, and there were black markinged scales, and the size was like that of an ordinary adult buffalo, but it had tiger-like limbs and claws, and at the same time, there were hard burrs like hedgehogs on the back and neck?

At this time, the other party was like a dog or a feline, with his head down and whimpering and roaring at him in a low voice, his limbs were already slightly bent, as if he was ready to pounce on him at any time?

"Humph!"

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of the West Mountains" has clouds: there are beasts on the mountain, its shape is like a cow, hedgehog hair, the name is poor, the sound is like a howling dog, it is a cannibal.

"It turns out that the so-called mountain god is you, a wicked animal that looks like a poor strange?!"

Just looked at the other party a little, Li Bai found a general description that matched the other party from his memory, and after seeing that the other party's feet seemed to match the footprints left on the ground here, he sneered angrily.

He doesn't care whether the other party is poor or not, but he only knows that he has found the right master, and then there will be revenge and revenge, and if he can't revenge, it's a big deal to die here, and he hasn't died, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

'Woohoo......'

'Whew~!! ’

Surprisingly, the other party didn't talk nonsense or spit out, and he didn't confront Li Bai for a long time, he just looked Li Bai up and down for a while, and after feeling that Li Bai didn't have much of a threat, he let out a roar like a vicious dog barking, and then the pair of bloodthirsty and cruel vertical eyes narrowed slightly, and then took the lead in swooping down on Li Bai.

"Humph!"

"Just in time!"

Will enter the wine!

With a cold snort, Li Bai's face froze, his body did not retreat, but advanced, and at the same time, the long sword in his hand used a standard and good sword style to hand it towards the direction of the opponent's head, and at the same time, the sword turned around the sword body and slashed it with all his strength without reservation.

Swish!

‘！！ ’

'Wow~! ’

In the next second, what even Li Bai himself couldn't have imagined was: with just one sword, he successfully cut off a large part of the opponent's bull-like horn, and while leaving an oblique smooth fracture on the opponent's giant horn, he also castrated and directly peeled off half of the opponent's ears and the hedgehog-like fur on the top of his head?

"Huh?!"

How can it be so weak?

After staggering and easily avoiding the opponent's claw blow towards him, and slapping the opponent's tail with the blade of the sword, it was inevitable that seeing the other party instantly injured and looking bloody, Li Bai's heart felt a little better, and at the same time, the idea of why the other party was so weak inevitably sprung up.

“！！”

Not good!

But before he could think much or launch a counterattack, he was stunned to find that the 'mountain god' that swept past him with a fishy wind, the evil beast that was cleverly moving and jumping away from the cave wall to avoid his possible counterattack while crying out in pain, and then regardless of the injury on his head, he turned his mind directly in the distance, and then suddenly hunched his back, and the barb like a hedgehog on his body exploded towards him in an instant?

Qinglian Sword Formation!!

Helpless, Li Bai, who didn't want to be nailed into a hedgehog by the other party with that weird attack method, directly made a stroke of genius, according to the way of calligraphy, the long sword flew forward a few times, and in an instant, he used the sword qi to turn the sword qi into a green lotus sword array in a certain area centered on himself, and cut it one by one at the hard burrs that were rushing towards him.

Bite! Bite! Bite!

Burst! Burst!

A sound like a metal collision sounded, and all the black spikes that stabbed him were quickly swept away by Li Bai, and some of the ones that did not fly towards him were changed by the agitated sword qi that changed the direction of the attack, and instead stabbed a dense layer on the surrounding cave walls and the ground around Li Bai's body in front of and behind him.

“！！”

Good, so dangerous!

Glancing at Li Bai in a hurry, he couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp, the other party's move just now made Li Bai firmly believe that if he didn't have the Qinglian swordsmanship and sword qi, and didn't have the head that became extremely clear under the blessing of the sword qi and the incomparably agile skills, he was afraid that he would have been shot alive!

Sure enough, with this hand, it is certainly not unreasonable for the other party to be a party to the disaster and 'pretend' as a mountain god for countless years.

"Huh?!"

"Evil animal, still want to run?!"

Li Bai, who was a little afraid to block the other party's terrible AOE attack, was almost not injured by the opponent's machine-gun blast, and just wanted to take precautions again to prevent the other party from performing that kind of nail attack on himself again, but at this time he was stunned to find:

After the other party arched his back and completed an attack, he paused slightly, and when he thought that the other party was about to launch a second round of spike attacks, he simply turned around and accelerated, and planned to escape to those small caves behind him?

"Stop!!"

What are you kidding, Li Bai came here to find his sister Mei'er, and when he thought that his sister was likely to have been devoured by the other party, he wanted to find the other party for revenge and vent his anger no matter what, where would he easily let the other party go?

"Evil beast!"

"Don't try to run!!"

Therefore, seeing that the other party wanted to turn around and run away, he directly rushed forward at high speed with a sword move, and after blessing the long sword with sword qi, he took advantage of the opportunity of the other party's back to him, and slashed towards the opponent's hind legs!

Qiang!!

After the sound of metal colliding, Li Bai couldn't help but be shocked.

It turned out that the scales on the opponent's back and legs were abnormally hard, and his long sword was not able to cut the opponent's skin, but instead made a metallic collision sound and a few sparks after the collision?

However, miraculously, his subsequent sword qi was not hindered in any way, and it actually cut through the opponent's skin directly behind the sword body and penetrated through the body, and directly tore a symmetrical crack on the enemy's hind legs, allowing the stinky blood to shoot directly away.

‘！！ ’

'Whew~!! ’

Boom!

With a whimper, the monster that had been bruised by a sudden blow and injured one of its hind legs could no longer maintain its balance before it could run far, and stumbled directly into the wall of the cave on the side in the blood light, and slammed into it fiercely, making a dull crashing sound.

Click!!

However, while the other party was injured, he was able to turn over in time and grasp it with his claws, and the huge force also slapped Li Bai, who rushed over and swung his sword and slashed again, and flew out.
