Chapter 66: The Lake of the Silver Deer
Qiu Jiu'er rode the little white face all the way, as if she was afraid that Yu Bing would think of something to catch up. After speeding all the way from the sixth gate to the shallow stream outside the ninth gate, Qiu Jiu'er let Xiao Baimian play by herself, and she walked into the hidden place where Xi Wei had taken her in the stone mountain.
At this time, it is the morning, and the cold air gathered at night is evaporated by the sun, and the stone mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
Qiu Jiu'er had been pulling inside the body of the king beetle for half the night, and her body was full of unpleasant smell of fishy insects, and now she naturally had to clean it well.
The clothes and bandages on his body were removed one after another, and Qiu Jiu'er sat in the rocky water pond to wash his body.
The skin of the originally fair and flawless body was covered with intricate wound scars, and the marks left by the penetrating wound on the lower abdomen were the most terrifying. Qiu Jiu'er has been wearing thick bandages all over her body since the war against her classmates, firstly because she is always injured and just bandages to stop bleeding, and secondly, to cover up her ugliness.
The scar is a man's glory, but if it is placed on her girl's family, I am afraid that she will not be able to marry in the future.
Qiu Jiu'er is actually very sad; She is a little girl who secretly saves money to buy hairpins, how can she not have a love for beauty, but it's a pity that becoming beautiful is not comparable to becoming stronger.
"Huh?"
It was as if something slippery was swimming by his feet. Qiu Jiu'er looked at the bottom of the crystal clear pond and saw nothing but water.
"Delusion......"
Qiu Jiu'er muttered, and then took care of her hair again.
"Oops!"
It was the same feeling of something slippery running down her calves; Qiu Jiu'er hurriedly looked down, except for the extremely clear water, it was still water.
The pond is no more than a meter deep, less than ten square meters in area, and in the middle there is an eye of water that is constantly bubbling outward; What else could she not see in the pond except Qiu Jiu'er herself?
Qiu Jiu'er jumped onto the rocky bank, put on her underwear and black skirt, and knelt on the edge of the pond to stare carefully at the water.
But she really didn't see why.
"It's weird, it's weird...... The water that gushes up from the ground rushes to the stone mountain, and then turns into a small waterfall from the stone mountain and flows down, and it becomes a shallow stream waterway outside, but where does this water come from, how strange is it! Has Senior Sister Xi Wei ever soaked in this, I haven't heard her say that there is anything slippery and not lost here! ”
Qiu Jiu'er jumped into the water again, and this time she was completely immersed in the water; Open her eyes in the water and take a closer look at what exactly touched her.
Qiu Jiu'er can swim, but she changed her breath four times and then went in and squatted, but she still didn't find anything. Just as she was about to give up, she suddenly saw two small black dots swimming in the water. It's just two small black dots, like small gray particles suspended in the water if you don't look closely.
Qiu Jiu'er tried to grasp these two small black spots, but the force in the water was very different from that in the air; Whenever Qiu Jiu'er's hands tried to hold down these two black dots, it always ran away first.
"Huh, huh......" Qiu Jiu'er gasped and leaned against the shore.
She seemed to know what it was, and the former saint's general knowledge class was very good.
Qiu Jiu'er held his forehead, with an aggrieved look on his face. It is a kind of magical beast called the glass water snake, the whole body is 100% transparent, living in the water, this is a model of harmless magical beasts to humans and animals, generally only the level of the first order, probably a strange species that can live by drinking water.
But it is not found in all kinds of water, and the glass water snake only lives in extremely clean water with very low impurities.
It turned out that she was just catching snakes in the water like juggling; Qiu Jiu'er doesn't hate snakes, but he definitely doesn't like them.
"Where the hell did this thing come from?"
Extremely clean waters, usually deep underground, occasionally one or two by glass water snakes washed up to the surface by the turbulent groundwater, but there are more than one or two in this pool! Qiu Jiu'er just stood here and thought for a while, standing still for four or five minutes, and there were five slippery snakeskin touches on his body! Then there must be no more than ten or twenty glass water snakes in this pool?!
There should be a special body of water that is extremely clean in the vicinity. Qiu Jiu'er knew the situation inside and outside the ten gates for more than ten miles, but she didn't expect such a place to be after thinking about it for a long time. Could it be groundwater?
Anyway, that body of water should not be far from here, otherwise there wouldn't be so many glass snakes living in this small pond - Qiu Jiu'er decided to look for that water.
The lifespan of the first-order glass water snake is very short, no more than ten years. The female glass snake lays eggs for a few days before dying, after which her body sinks to the bottom, shrinks and becomes a small, brittle glass crystal. Crisp glass crystals are very fashionable decorations in aristocratic circles, and the quantity is scarce and the price is extraordinary. If you can find a glass water snake's nest and pick it up with hundreds of brittle glass crystals, you will be able to get rid of the wine!
As soon as he made up his mind, Qiu Jiu'er began to act; She's not a water or earth magician, she can leave by herself with a wave of her staff, she's a warrior, and she can only use the most simple and savage methods.
Qiu Jiu'er punched down from the eye of the water, and she decided to punch the small stone mountain through the middle, and then follow the vine and find it step by step along the underground water road.
This is a huge project, Qiu Jiu'er worked from early morning to noon, and then from noon to night, this 'fairyland' was mostly destroyed by her, and the water gushing out of the water eye became more and more violent. Finally, the morning after her countless rests, she completely hollowed out the mountain.
Qiu Jiu'er stood in the huge pit she had dug herself, and the turbulence was dispersed by her path into the shallow stream outside, and she stood at the source of this water and looked at the underground water source cave.
The water is very fast, very fast, very fast, so that it can be said that the water that comes out is just accidentally sent to the ground by the turbulent underground water flow. The body of several glass water snakes that were washed up by the current could be seen at the water source, and Qiu Jiu'er picked one up, and then quickly slid down from her hand.
Qiu Jiu'er sighed and prepared to leave from here; Such a turbulent current usually does not change direction suddenly, and now that she knows the direction of the current, she will first grope her way in this direction. When the time comes, whether to burrow in the ground or whatever, we can only take one step at a time to see one step at a time.
Qiu Jiu'er jumped up by the water source, ready to climb up and leave the stone mountain, that is, this jump, bad things.
The thin stratum under his feet that was hit by the current was suddenly swallowed by the current, Qiu Jiu'er was frightened, and looked at his feet, but he didn't expect that a rock in his hand was splashed with water, and his right hand also slipped, and Qiu Jiu'er's body instantly fell into the turbulent groundwater!
Qiu Jiu'er was so close to the underground water inture that she fell into the water before she could react! She didn't even have time to utter a shout!
"Poof!"
Rotation, pitch black, suffocation, rotation, difficulty breathing, non-directional, rotation, pitch black, forward, forward, forward......
Qiu Jiu'er tried her best to stay conscious, and she tried to occasionally take a breath from the gap between the water and earth layers, and she also tried to stop!
She prayed that her idea was right, that the source of the water should not be far from the stone mountain, so that it would be possible for her to soberly hold on to a place where she could control her body's exertion!
But I don't know how long it took, Qiu Jiu'er finally lost all consciousness.
*****
The scorching midday sun shone on half of his body, but the other half of his body was immersed in cool water, and the discomfort caused by the huge contrast between the two sides of the body stimulated the hate.
"Ahem, ahem...... cough cough cough ......"
Qiu Jiu'er's eyes, which had been soaked in water for a long time, were so sore that Qiu Jiu'er rubbed her eyes and carefully looked at where she was: this was a lake surrounded by green trees, and she was lying on the edge of this lake now, but fortunately it was washed up in a very shallow place and did not drown her.
There was a huge gushing hole in the center of the lake, and the water was constantly gushing upwards, and Qiu Jiu'er seemed to have been washed up from there.
There are often slippery and greasy touches of glass water snakes around me, and the glass water snakes in this lake are of the second order, although they are still harmless, but their bodies are thick and long.
"Oops!"
Qiu Jiu'er stood up on her knees, but she didn't expect a burst of pain under her feet. The bottom of the lake is not mud or sand, but a thick layer of cylindrical glass crystals; As soon as the foot stepped on it, it shattered, and the foot of the enemy wine was full of pain.
It seems that this is the colony of glass water snakes; Qiu Jiu'er looked at the lake in the distance, the calm lake surface continued to gush out from the center, and the sunlight shone directly to the bottom of the lake, and the brittle glass crystals of the lake water made the whole lake appear to shine like a dream.
Qiu Jiu'er endured the pain and walked to the shore of the lake; There were glass slags all over her feet, and Qiu Jiu'er felt sorry for her feet and broken money on the other.
"Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo——!"
Qiu Jiu'er heard the reputation, and as soon as the demonic beast and Qiu Jiu'er met their eyes, they immediately ran away.
It turned out to be?!
Qiu Jiu'er's pupils shrank; It was a young deer, with silver fur all over it, and it looked like a normal deer, with a short tail and two small bumps on its head.
Silver deer! This is an auspicious beast and a silver deer that symbolizes happiness and longevity! Qiu Jiu'er didn't expect that there was really a silver deer in the Silver Deer Forest!
In ancient times, the gods were still very common auspicious beasts, such as the phoenix, the unicorn, the fox, and the white ze, and the famous ones such as the golden toad, the green sparrow, the golden crow, and the xuanwu, which can occasionally be seen from some big forces; But today, in the Wenyin era, Rui beasts are extremely rare.
According to the mysterious and mysterious statement of those people in the ethereal que, the Rui Beast itself represents the fortune of a land, and it is already a lot of luck in that person's life to see the Rui Beast and be stained with three points of auspicious energy!
Although the silver deer is not so famous, it is a real Rui Beast! Qiu Jiu'er was overjoyed and ran to the place where the little silver deer left, but stopped after running two steps.
It's not good to alarm the beast like this! Moreover, Qiu Jiu'er didn't even know where he was now, so he ran away with the deer so excitedly, which was too reckless!
If Yinlu was guarded by some powerful demonic beasts, wouldn't he go to die?!
Thinking about his current situation, Qiu Jiu'er turned his head and walked towards the woods in the opposite direction.
