Chapter 79: The Old Witch

Forget it, don't argue with her about this.

There is a question that seems to me to be a crucial question, and I must take this opportunity to ask: "Do you come here every night just to absorb the essence of the moonlight?" ”

"Yes, I can't control the yin qi in my body, and I have to rely on the moonlight essence qi every day to refine my internal breath."

I always felt that the yin qi in her body was abnormal, so I asked again: "This yin qi in your body is not obtained by normal cultivation, right?" ”

"Not really."

"How did that come about?"

Unexpectedly, in the face of this problem, she sold off: "This is my little secret, I can't tell you." ”

"Did you take it from a ghost?"

"I won't tell you."

Well, I'm asking in vain.

She didn't know what she was thinking, but she suddenly leaned over and grabbed my arm.

Ouch can shame me, I've never been so close to a girl when I've grown so big.

But she didn't seem to care much about this, and shook my arm and asked, "Uncle Xiao, what is your big name?" ”

Lu Shengcai hurriedly answered: "His name is Gai Dong, my name is Lu Shengcai, his nickname is Datou, and my nickname is Gouyu." ”

Why are you everywhere?

The girl tried hard to remember my name: "Uncle Xiao's name is Gai Dong, I remember." ”

Lu Shengcai leaned over and said, "What about me?" ”

The girl glanced at him: "I also remember, your name is Gouyu." ”

Lu Shengcai almost jumped to his feet in a hurry: "That's a nickname!" ”

The girl didn't bother with him, so she turned her face to the side.

People ignore him, but he likes to go up: "Hey, if I'm not mistaken, your name is Momiji, right?" ”

"I'm not called Momiji. Red leaves are the pseudonyms given to me by the master of Jingyun Mountain, and my original name was Yunshang. The clouds of clouds, the garments of clothes. ”

"Huh? For the first time, I heard that there was someone surnamed Yun. ”

"I don't have a surname Yun, I don't have a surname, I only have a name like Yunshang."

"What else is there like this? Say your name again...... Would a normal person have such a name? You're not going to make fun of me, are you? ”

To be honest, my main attention wasn't on them for a little while.

Just a few seconds ago, the spirit of the cave was slowly spreading downstream of the river, so I paid attention and put some of my attention on the junction between the Mid-Mountain Hall and the cave house.

Thanks to this spiritual change, I would have been distracted, otherwise I would have been ashamed to know what to do.

For a moment, the Lingyun at the junction suddenly fluctuated, and the fluctuation was very light, and it was difficult for me to judge what kind of Lingyun had changed.

Momiji, oh no, Yunshang also sensed the strange fluctuations, and saw her quickly turn her face and glance at the upper reaches of the river, and then there was a little nervousness between her eyebrows.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

She didn't respond to me immediately, and stared at the river for a moment before she nervously told me, "The old witch is here, hide quickly." ”

With that, she pulled me and Lu Shengcai into the depths of the black forest.

Yunshang was obviously very familiar with the situation in the black forest, and the last place she landed was a bush that grew deep in the dense forest.

Sinking into the bushes, people outside would not be able to detect us even if they had strong night vision, but our vision could clearly see the river beach illuminated by the moonlight through the gaps in the bushes and the cracks in the dense forest.

If it weren't for Yun Sheng having repeatedly stepped on the point in the forest before, it is unlikely that he would have found such an excellent observation position.

After hiding in the bushes, Yunshang really focused her eyes on the gap in the bushes, which also confirmed my suspicion, she knew early on that she could see the river at a glance from this position.

This girl is not simple.

The riverbank glows with a purple jade sheen in the moonlight, and it is difficult to hear the sound of the water running in the river here, and the wind rustles the leaves through the trees, and it is this noise that blocks our hearing to a certain extent.

Not long after, I saw a rickety figure appear on the river beach.

It was too far away for me to see the specific appearance of the person who came, and I could only vaguely tell that it was an old lady with a severely hunched back, and because of her abnormal shape, she could only walk on her stomach with her legs bent.

From a distance, the hump was like a rocky mountain pressing on her, indescribably hard and heavy.

Strangely, even though her body was twisted into this way, her gait was very light, and she walked on the wet and soft river beach faster than she normally walked on flat ground.

At this point, she stopped, leaned in front of the river and looked left and right, as if she was looking for someone, or someone she was waiting for.

But after a long time, the people she was waiting for did not appear.

The night became more and more intense, and the moonlight gradually deviated from the top of the river beach, so the old lady turned around and thumped the hump behind her, and walked away slowly.

She did leave quickly when she came, but when she left, she seemed very hesitant.

I vaguely felt that there was still a trace of luck in her heart, and I only hoped that the person she was waiting for would suddenly appear by the river, call her, and let her come back.

But that person still didn't come after all, and she left alone after all.

I felt that the old lady should have gone far before she dared to ask Yunsheng: "Who is she?" ”

"She is the second highest person in the entire Jingyun Mountain, but for some reason, she has never accepted an apprentice since she entered the mountain. Uncle Xiao, don't you know, this old lady has a bad temper, everyone calls her the old witch, and the most annoying thing is that she comes to the river beach every night. ”

"What are you doing on the beach?"

"I don't know. Anyway, it's every day. She has a very high status in the mountains, and she can go in and out of the cave and the mid-mountain hall at will, but in addition to going to the river every day to take a walk, there is also the time to enter the mid-mountain hall to choose people, and she has never been seen out of the cave mansion. ”

Lu Shengcai couldn't help but tease: "If you look like that, of course you're embarrassed to go down the mountain." ”

I don't know what's wrong, I just glanced at the old woman, because of the distance, I didn't feel her emotions, but I felt that there was a particularly sad aura on her.

Maybe this old woman is not as hateful as Yunshang thinks.

But that's just a feeling of mine, and I can't say for sure.

At this time, Yunshang leaned towards me: "There is a small road in the upper reaches of the river, which is directly connected to the Lingkong Hall. It's too late, I'm going back now, you have to talk, I'll be here for you tomorrow. ”

I couldn't help but wonder: "Since there is a shortcut, why don't you take it when you come, but go downstream?" ”

"In the early hours of the hour, Senior Brother Liao was always guarding that road, he was so desperate that he refused to let me pass, but it was annoying! I'm really leaving. ”

Lu Shengcai hurriedly stayed: "Don't talk for a while?" ”

Yunshang didn't pay attention to him at all, jumped out of the bushes directly, and floated out of the forest lightly.
