Chapter 67: Nightmares and the Fruit Tree

Within the school.

Xia Ruo sat on the seat next to the window, and the teacher on the stage was lecturing, but Xia Ruo didn't have the heart to listen to the lecture at all, so he sat in his seat in a daze. Because Xia Ruo's classroom was on the fourth floor, he could clearly see the scenery below the entire school through the window.

He returned to the peaceful campus life, as if he was in a different world.

"I didn't expect the summer vacation to end so soon, I'm bored at home, and I just go to school, the key is that my otherworldly adventure is so fulfilling, and I was told at once that school started, and I didn't adjust."

Xia Ruo felt a little in a trance, the experience of the previous monster era was like a dream, it passed in the blink of an eye, and time seemed to pass a little fast.

"Meow!"

Suddenly, a familiar meow reached Xia Ruo's ears.

Well? This voice is......

Xia Ruo suddenly found that he didn't know when, Tom appeared outside the window, Tom had an anxious expression on his face at this time, and kept tapping the glass of the window with his little claws.

Tom? Why did it end up here, and besides, this is the fourth floor, did Tom fly up?

And why is it in such a hurry, has someone from another world come in?

Just as Xia Ruo reacted, Tom's little claws hit the glass faster and faster, as if he was still shouting something.

"What's wrong?"

Peng!

The glass was shattered by Tom, and Tom rushed to Xia Ruo's face, and then hugged Xia Ruo's face with two small claws, shaking it constantly.

"Master, master, have you forgotten? School is about to start, and you haven't moved a word of your summer vacation homework! ”

“?”

A question mark appeared above Xia Ruo's head.

……

"It's over, the homework hasn't been written yet!"

Xia Ruo was awakened by the nightmare, and when he opened his eyes, Tom was riding on his face, scratching his face with his little claws, was Tom waking himself up just now.

After waking up, Xia Ruo looked at the blue sky and white clouds above, and then he had a sense of reality.

Sure enough, it was all a dream, Xia Ruo remembered, because the weather was so good, it happened that Tom volunteered to go down to the river to catch fish for lunch, so he took a nap on the lawn while waiting for Tom to catch the fish.

Fortunately, it's a dream.,Otherwise, I didn't finish my homework when school started.,It's really scary.,Wait a minute.,The summer vacation homework doesn't seem to have moved a word.。

"You're awake," Tsubaki handed Xia Ruo a skewer of grilled fish, it turned out that even the fish had been grilled when Xia Ruo had just gone to sleep.

"Was it a nightmare just screaming so loudly?"

"Yes, it's a very real dream, I just thought about it, I haven't written my homework yet," Xia Ruo nodded.

“?”

Tom tried to laugh, but instantly covered his mouth with his cat's paw.

"I slept, and I was supposed to come and grill the fish," Xia Ruo took the grilled fish handed over by Tsubaki, and took a bite gently, just a small bite, Xia Ruo noticed the difference.

"It's delicious, it's even better than what I made, is this fish grilled by Miss Tsubaki?" Xia Ruo looked at Tsubaki and asked.

"No, it's a cat roast," Tsubaki pointed to Tom, who was eating fish on the side, "It's well baked, should I say it's a cat." ”

When Tom heard Xia Ruo's words, he straightened his little chest, and even caught fish with grilled fish, it Tom is omnipotent.

"That's right, Tom, the grilled ones are indeed better than mine, and they're better than the average grilled fish master, so why don't you call you Master Tang in the future, this nickname is good," Xia Ruo teased.

"Meow."

Tom squealed in disagreement, feeling that the title 'Master Tang' was not good.

Just as they were eating the fish, something seemed to float up the river from above, and Tom had just finished eating the fish, and looked at it curiously, and it turned out to be a large peach, about the size of a human head.

Tom had never seen a peach of this size, so Tom curiously fished the peach up from the river to see if it could be eaten.

"Meow."

But after catching it up and taking a look, Tom was immediately so frightened that he threw the peach out, this peach is not an ordinary peach, there is a terrifying human face on the huge peach, which is very real, just a glance, the human face on the fruit will give people goosebumps.

"This is...... Human face fruit. ”

Seeing this peach with a human face, Tsubaki's face became serious, "I didn't expect to see a human face fruit here." ”

"Human Face Fruit!"

Xia Ruo also made a surprised sound, he knew the human face fruit, it was a very evil-evil fruit in the original book, it was a fruit that was born on the human face fruit tree with living people as nutrients, and every human face fruit was actually a human life.

As long as a human or a monster eats this fruit, it will gain great power, and if it eats the fruit, the person who eats the fruit seems to be controlled by the human face fruit tree.

However, Xia Ruo guessed that it might not be the fruit tree in the original book, because the fruit tree in the original book seemed to have been asleep all the time, and it was only awakened when it came into contact with the fragments of the jade of the four souls.

"You know the human face fruit?" Tsubaki didn't expect Xia Ruo to also know the rumors of the human face fruit.

"Just a little bit of understanding," Xia Ruo nodded.

"Since the fruit can float here, it means that the location of the fruit tree is not far upstream, and we still have to go over and deal with the human-faced fruit tree and the monsters guarding it as soon as possible, otherwise there will be more dead, and an evil thing like the human-faced fruit tree can't let it stay," Tsubaki glanced at the location of the upper reaches of the river.

She's ready to go now.

"Okay, then let's go," Xia Ruo hugged Tom beside him.

Tsubaki is a witch, and it is her responsibility to remove the demon when she encounters a monster, and it is also an experience, but the demon removal has nothing to do with Xia Ruo.

She actually wanted Xia Ruo to stay, but no matter what she said, Xia Ruo had to go with her, which also made Tsubaki feel helpless and a little touched at the same time.

Together, the two walked up the river.

Xia Ruo was a little worried in his heart, after all, in the original book, Inuyasha, who learned the wound of the wind, met the youkai who guarded the human face fruit, and fell into the disadvantage, which shows how great the role of the human face fruit is.

And Xia Ruo also heard rumors that hundreds of people had disappeared from several nearby villages combined, which means that at least hundreds of people have been spawned, and maybe even more, after eating so many fruits, then that monster is estimated to be very powerful.

Although Tsubaki is not weak, but the offensive means are too poor, only the curse and Shikigami can see it, and the only thing that makes Xia Ruo more comforting is that in Inuyasha, Tsubaki is considered an intermediate boss and has cooperated with Naraku, and the type of guardian monster of the human face fruit can only be regarded as a small boss.

Xia Ruo looked at his reputation bar again, and his reputation value was increasing by about 100 points every day, and now his reputation was more than nine hundred.

Probably around tonight, there will be almost a prestige point to upgrade to lv2, and when the time comes, your strength will also usher in a wave of improvement.
