Yan Shan: Twenty-four
Qiao Yan's heart was in turmoil, knowing that the fox clan was the best at lying, so he asked again: "You said that the green snake let you and the wild boar out, so why didn't he come out himself?" ”
Speaking of the green snake, the fox cried more and more sadly, looked at Qiao Yan, hated so much that he gritted his teeth, and said helplessly: "The green snake was nailed by your good looks, and it has been seriously injured at this time, if it is not hid in Taihang Mountain in time, I am afraid that it will be lifeless." ”
Qiao Yan was a little incredulous for a while, "But Ah Yu, he ......"
"He is now being led elsewhere by a wild boar, so I can take the opportunity to come in and say a word to you, your second master has been killed by him the night before yesterday, and at this time, the wild boar is afraid that it will be more auspicious!"
Qiao Yan's heart trembled, and when he stood up, his whole person shook a little, "No, how can it be Ah Yu!" ”
The fox screamed: "The wild boar has seen your good look, your good look is the god king who guards one side of the heavens, the wild boar said that the first time he fought with him, it was the green snake that secretly released the snake venom to get out, all those in this world who have snake venom, regardless of the fairy and demon, will be cultivated in a short period of time for a big loss, and then the green snake wanted to catch him, and looked for a long time, but he didn't dare to think that the god monarch was bold enough to hide in the territory of the demon clan in the Taishang Mountain! ”
Qiao Yan thought of all kinds of doubts when he got along with Yu Zhi, and guessed that he might not be an ordinary monk in the world, and he also boldly imagined that he was an inconspicuous immortal official in Xianjun, but he never thought that he would be one of the gods of the four directions!
In this way, from the very beginning, will it be a use with ulterior motives?
Pushing the fox away, Qiao Yan stepped towards the outside and was about to leave, "I'll go find Ah Yu, I'll go find him!" ”
After stumbling and walking a few steps, Qiao Yan suddenly stopped again, pinched the nails of his hands into the palms of his hands, tried to calm down his emotions, and without looking back, he asked the fox, "You mean, the Demon Punishment Array has begun?" ”
The fox was stunned by Qiao Yan's sudden calm question, forgot to cry for a while, and nodded again and again: "Yes, within a radius of five hundred miles, its demons are all punished!" ”
Qiao Yan held up a cluster of flames in his palm, and the scorching flames scorched his entire arm, and the pain it brought made his mind, which was still a little drowsy, wake up in an instant.
Turning his head, Qiao Yan looked at the embarrassed fox at this time, and asked, "Are you staying here, or are you going back with me?" ”
The fox stepped forward, and at this moment, for some reason, a sense of awe rose in his heart for Qiao Yan, and crawled to Qiao Yan's feet, crying cowardly in his eyes, but he said very firmly: "Go back, the green snake is still in the forest, I want to go back to accompany him." ”
Qiao Yan didn't say a word, and picked up the back of the fox's neck like he usually picked up the monkey, turning it into a streamer and heading towards Taihang Mountain.
Qiao Yan knew that since that person could nail the green snake and kill the second master with his own hands, his cultivation must be too much above the wild boar, and the wild boar couldn't drag on for too long, and that Yu Zhishenjun was as tender as water last night, and let her fall into the ecstasy incense that he had prepared carefully, just to let her indulge in a sweet dream of wind and snow, destroy her home, and kill her relatives!
Stepping into the Taihang Mountain Boundary, the wind has been raging, Qiao Yan forced his way into the formation against the wind, after a burst of flying sand and stones, he didn't know where he was swept away, he only felt like he had been thrown into a barren mountain col, the dead branches and gravel were cushioned under him, and the old wounds left by the previous fight with the green snake suddenly cracked, oozing red blood.
Qiao Yan didn't care about anything else, stood up with the pain, looked around, and saw a raging fire in a valley, reflecting the layers of clouds in the sky, all of which were tinged with a strange red, as if the clouds were so red that they would fall one after another, and countless burning fireballs would fall like rain. Accompanied by the firelight, there was a terrible scream that echoed in the valley, and many Qiao Yan were familiar with that cry, as if it was a sharp knife with a barb, piercing her heart!
"Monkey! Yingying! Three masters! ”
Qiao Yan cried and ran towards the firelight, and the closer she got closer, she found that there were intermittent corpses of demons and animals on the road, many of whom had fought with her, said hello, and laughed or annoyed in the past, but now all of them had become a broken corpse.
Qiao Yan only felt that her legs began to weaken, and the further she walked, the scorching flames began to burn her whole body, but the persistent energy in her heart surged, so that she did not hesitate to move forward, and she couldn't retreat a bit!
The green and lush grass in the back mountain was already scorched yellow at this time, and Qiao Yan saw that the rabbits that had hugged each other and called her the demon king with the most adoring eyes had been smashed by the scorched wood that fell to the ground and were lifeless.
Tears flowed from Qiao Yan's eyes, ignoring the scorching firelight, he quickly ran towards his cave, but the original familiar place became strange at this moment, Qiao Yan recognized his home from the ruins of the fallen trees on the hillside, and when he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he found that his legs were trembling, and he simply lost the courage to step in.
The tears on his face seemed to be burned by the constant firelight around him, Qiao Yan raised his sleeve and wiped it, choking his throat like a rope, and called hoarsely, "Third master!" Three masters! ”
After a few calls in a row, there was no familiar response from the cave where she had lived since she was a child.
Qiao Yan waved away the smoke floating in the cave with his hand, coughed violently, and after his eyes could see the surrounding scene clearly, Qiao Yan was pleasantly surprised to find that the third master who treated her like her own daughter was sitting very quietly on the edge of the bed at this time, and she was still holding the old burden of transporting many animals with her in the valleys.
Quickly pounced, like the most well-behaved person on weekdays, Qiao Yan gently lay on the third master's lap, and murmured: "Third master, the stinky girl is back." ”
There was still silence beside her, and no one responded to her.
The tears in Qiao Yan's eyes couldn't control the tears falling from his cheeks, dripping on the third master's black and gray clothes, and there were mottled marks in a wet circle.
After kneeling for a moment as if his heart was cut by a knife, Qiao Yan stood up from the ground, brushed the ashes that fell on the hair for the third master, and between the fingertips touching the third master's snort, he found that there was really silence there.
Swallowing all the sadness in her heart, Qiao Yan couldn't help but cry, and bit her lip out of the blood, before she let out a loud cry, feeling that her sky was about to fall.
After gently laying the body of the third master on the bed, Qiao Yan knelt in front of the bed and kowtowed a few times before getting up and stumbling out of the cave, heading towards the place where the monkey and Ying Ying lived.
The monkey set up his home in a place full of peach trees, and Ying Ying said that the monkey was timid, so she lived in the same peach forest with him. Qiao Yan dodged the flowing fire that fell from the sky from time to time, her plain clothes were burned and ragged by the splashing sparks, and the mountain road that she used to think could only be reached in a few breaths seemed to be half her life at this moment.
When she arrived at the messy peach forest, Qiao Yan called a few monkeys with her heart and liver, and was very scared like when she called the third master, and the surroundings were as quiet as if she had fallen into a dead sea, and there was no sound to answer her.
called a few times in a row, like the last thing Qiao Yan wanted to see, no one responded to her, not even the subordinates of the green snakes in the forest, those demons who loved to bully her with their teeth and claws, none of them jumped out to laugh at her embarrassment at this time.
Just when Qiao Yan was lost to the extreme, he faintly heard a weak voice crying under the peach tree, and then as if he had met hope again, he called out in surprise, "Demon, Lord Demon King." ”
Qiao Yan suddenly raised his head, looked around, and found that something was gently squirming under the scorched dead grass. Qiao Yan ran over, and was pleasantly surprised to see the monkey poking its head out of it, the original almost golden fluff has been burned and curled and burned, it seems that seeing Qiao Yan, the monkey's spirit has all the support, and called the demon king again, and cried.
Qiao Yan went over, crying and comforting, while reaching out to remove the grass that was pressing on the monkey's body, but the more comforting, the more heartbreaking it found that the monkey was crying, as if the pain had surpassed the body, and it was incomparable to the knife and fire.
Listening to the cry of the monkey, Qiao Yan's hand holding the weeds slowly stiffened, because under the grass, on the hands that protected the monkey, there were still feathers that had not faded when they were transformed, and the feathers that did not fall into the dust and rain, covering all the burning of the fire for the monkey.
"Yingying, Yingying!"
Qiao Yan was crazy and picked up the grass and hugged Ying Ying in his arms, Ying Ying, who loved beauty the most on weekdays, was burned beyond recognition by the flames at this time, and even though Qiao Yan shouted desperately, he couldn't open his eyes to look at her.
The monkey cried a word that was difficult to say, Qiao Yan's heart twitched, and when he raised his eyes, the entire Taihang Mountain was full of sparkling firelight, not only that, in the cloud array covering the sky overhead, there were still clusters of flowing fire like rain, Qiao Yan listened to the cry of the monkey in his ears and the whole mountain, and cried out in a heart-rending cry, thinking about what kind of sin it was, and he had to kill the creatures of the entire Taihang Mountain!
A fireball fell and smashed into Qiao Yan's side, and the moment the spark splashed up, the timid and crying monkey pounced on Qiao Yan and protected Qiao Yan, just like Yingying did when she protected it.
Qiao Yan stretched out his arms and protected the thin monkey in his arms, his eyes were red, as if they were dyed with blood.
The surrounding flames seemed to have been pulled by something, and they were burning, but the fire did not continue to spread in the Taihang Mountains, but went up out of thin air, like thousands of sharp blades, pointing to the cloud array of the entire sky.
Qiao Yan is distressed! It was as if it was riddled with holes, and it was repeatedly fried on a scorching fire.
The monkey seemed to sense Qiao Yan's changes, raised his tearful head, and called, "Lord Demon King." ”
