Chapter Thirty-Four: Misfortune Happens
The bamboo forest area near Yokai Mountain is very large, there are no signs in the bamboo forest, and the bamboo changes rapidly, and the bamboo grows diagonally, which makes people lose their sense of balance and direction, and it is easy to get lost.
In addition, there are many youkai inside, and there are many mysterious things hidden, so it is very dangerous for ordinary humans.
However, Penglai Mountain Huiye liked it at a glance, and directly changed from the previous noncommittal attitude to the other extreme of very much approval, and made up his mind to stay here and refuse to leave.
Well, let's not talk about the issue of phase for now.
Anyway, what Mu Xiu had to do was to occupy a large piece of land in the depths of the bamboo forest, and then build a house here.
It's very simple to occupy a territory, because there are a large number of rabbit monsters living in the bamboo forest, and as herbivorous animals, it is difficult for them to become strong even if they become monsters, and they are often bullied and hunted by other predatory monsters.
Therefore, Mu Xiu just directly killed the two powerful monsters nearby, and while slightly improving his mission progress, he also logically subdued this group of rabbit monsters directly-
Anyway, for the rabbit spirits, as long as someone can provide strong protection, so that they no longer need to worry about it every day, then even becoming a vassal race is not something difficult to accept.
They may even feel ecstatic that they finally have a master, after all, no one has ever wanted to accept them and shelter them in the past. All other predatory monsters just use them as food, and they can be killed and killed, and no other relationship is needed.
Because they are too weak, their own demonic power is not strong enough, and their blood is insufficient, and their own abilities and witchcraft are only used to tending to crops.
However, to Mu Xiu's disappointment, he was not able to meet the legendary Lucky White Rabbit Inaba Emperor, who was supposed to have been active in the bamboo forest before the establishment of the Eternal Pavilion.
Probably because Mu Xiu had established the Eternal Pavilion now, and subtly missed the opportunity, the black-bellied monster rabbit had not yet come to the Lost Bamboo Forest and become the leader of the rabbit group.
That's really the case...... Interesting.
Mu Xiu himself does not know architecture, but it does not mean that he does not know how to read drawings, to be honest, as long as there are detailed drawings to explain, whether it is the British Museum or the Hanging Garden, he can be completely and perfectly built according to the scale of one to one.
As for the quality of the building, it's definitely better than the original, and definitely not worse.
So after asking the nearby tengu to help solve the problem of building materials, in just two days, he built an old Japanese-style house.
Then, Penglai Mountain Kazuya used his eternal power to envelop the entire architectural structure of the mansion and every inch of space inside itβnot a static time, but not far off, because the future eternal catastrophe will never befall here again.
The future that will never come again, the eternal continuation of today, is the eternal power that solidifies this scene into eternity.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The so-called history is something that allows time to advance in ordinary times, and records the state of time in extraordinary times.
The reason why we are able to describe what happened in history is because time has stopped moving forward. As evidence, no one can say when those ordinary things happened.
The vast bamboo forest, which is covered in dense fog and has very poor visibility, has an indescribable sense of mystery in itself, and when you walk into it, you will feel as if the bamboo forest has been handed down from an ancient era a long time ago and will never change.
And the huge ancient building built in the depths of the bamboo forest to avoid people's eyes and ears adds a heavy touch to this atmosphere.
Because there is only the minimum amount of necessary light here, it is very dim, and you can only hear the sound of the wind brushing against the thin bamboo. It is impossible to tell whether it is day or night, whether there are people or no one inside.
This gives people a bizarre illusion -
It is as if time and history have been forgotten in this peaceful place guarded by a bamboo forest, and time refuses to move on.
A large group of monster rabbits happily shuttled back and forth between the bamboo forests, waiting for the medicine garden in the open space on the side of the Eternal Pavilion, as if they liked the new life of the past half a month.
Because there is no longer a single creature that doesn't have long eyes to hunt them, they just need to live at the same pace every day and complete certain extra tasks. Compared to before, I don't know how much more relaxed and enjoyable.
"You seem to have relaxed a lot in the past two days?"
Penglai Mountain Huiye pressed the handle a few times and said casually, "Why don't you go out today?" β
"Because it's all over!" Mu Xiuyi replied lightly, in the past half a month, he has been running several times a day in the entire Eastern Hemisphere, naturally not to go for morning jogging or exercise, but to patrol and enforce the law.
After all, with his ability value, if he opened up his firepower and roughly swept half the world in a short period of time, looking for his hunting target, it was really not an impossible thing.
And the facts have indeed proved that he has traveled all over the land in half a month, completed the task, and directly killed hundreds of evil demons.
In just two months, he directly killed a hundred B-level demons. This kind of unreasonable momentum has swept away all the aliens, but it really made him famous and attracted the attention of I don't know how many people.
Similarly, there are some terrible demons who have targeted Mu Xiu because of this, and he was blocked a few days ago and almost couldn't come back.
"Yes, but the concubine wants to remind you that yesterday the spirit dove Irin came." Penglai Mountain Huiye put down the handle, turned his head and said with interest. She grabbed a handful of her long, shiny black hair and ran her fingers around the ends of the hair.
"Huh? What is she doing here? Mu Xiu raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Hmm, maybe it's just here to lose your temper? Maybe you're here to apologize! Her awkward personality, who knows. β
Her Royal Highness the princess said disapprerovingly, "After all, you left without even saying hello, and you started a new business here, she will naturally think more!" β
"Huh? Is that so, but I don't care about what happened that day......" Mu Xiu was confused.
Penglai Shan Hui Ye smiled lightly: "Na, think about it, if a guest comes to your house to stay overnight, and he just had a quarrel early the next morning, and then he leaves immediately, what will you think?" β
"Kaguya, I don't think the nature of these two things seems to be quite right......" Mu Xiu said with some confusion.
But judging from the spirit dove Irin's deathly character that even struggles with her own height problem, it seems that it is normal for her to be on the tip of the horns in these aspects?
Penglai Mountain Huiye shook his head, waved his hand and said disapprehantly: "Anyway, it's good to understand." β
"Okay, I'll go over and talk to her later......" Mu Xiu sighed and ended the topic.
Then he shrugged his shoulders and opened the settlement interface of the "Lord God" light ball in front of his eyes, which only he could see.
Before that, Mu Xiu's remaining reward points were about 20,000+, less than the limit of 30,000 points, and as for the side plots, there were just two B-level side plots left......
No, exchanging that jar of immortal wine consumed 1,500 reward points plus a D-level side plot once, so before that, Mu Xiu had one B-level side plot, two D-level side plots, and two D-level side plots.
And now that the main quest of the first stage has been completed, the new points and side plots have arrived, so on this basis, Mu Xiu has added two more level side plots.
As for the bonus points, he didn't care much anymore, because it seemed that no matter what, the points were always enough.
Only the side plot is the real maddening limit, just like the previous food stamps, edible oil stamps, cloth stamps, etc., if you just have "money", you can't buy things, and you need additional "shopping vouchers".
And because of the three-tier system stipulated by the "main god" light ball - every three low-level side plots can only be synthesized into high-level side plots, so from D-level to S-level, the more difficult it is to go up.
But fortunately, the big ball of light just said coldly-
"The main quest of the current stage has been completed, the rewards have been distributed, and the main quest of the next stage will be opened the next time you enter the world."
This relieved Mu Xiu, although the 'Lord God' did not reveal more information, but it would not be wrong to think about it. Either it's the time and place when you come in next time or leave after you leave this world, or it's ......
At certain times, the large orb of light will forcibly teleport itself back to this world, so that it does not miss the timing of the mission.
Speaking of which, it should be just two years, after all, after three years, Bayi Yonglin will leave the moon, according to the routine, it is impossible for all favorable conditions to be completely occupied by his own side.
After hesitating for a moment, Mu Xiu, who was sitting quietly sipping tea in the center of the room, seemed to think of something again, and he raised his head and looked ahead.
"Kaguya?" He shouted under his breath.
"Huh? What's the matter? The concubine was listening. Penglai Mountain Kaguya put down the game, turned around and said with a smile.
"The ......"
Mu Xiu suddenly felt a little hairy in her heart, this girl's ability to observe words and emotions is too strong, although it is not to the level of foul reading of mind reading, but basically as soon as she speaks, she immediately knows whether what she wants to say needs to be taken seriously.
For a while, he didn't know what to say.
And just as he was about to say the words he had organized into words, a sudden sense of foreboding suddenly appeared in his heart. And there is no need for doubt and argument at all, and it has already turned into fact in the next moment.
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌβ
In an instant, the scenery in front of him was already shattered, making Mu Xiu mistakenly think that he had inadvertently opened the Eye of Death, but then he immediately reacted.
Knock on the mother!
Mu Xiu's face just changed instantly, and then he immediately jumped up and turned around and rushed out of the room - if he disappeared directly in front of Penglai Mountain Kaguya, he couldn't guarantee that something would happen.
After all, the exchange time is not over yet, and the next time he comes in, it will definitely not be at this point in time.
However......
"Wait, wait! What happened to you? β
The wrist was grabbed suddenly, and Her Royal Highness the princess also reacted quickly, I don't know what method was used to catch up, and grabbed Mu Xiu, who seemed to be running away.
However, speaking of which, she does seem to have the ability to accomplish anything that can be accomplished in an instant, not to mention just grabbing Mu Xiu, who is not far away, in that infinitely extended time, it is easy for her to go directly to the other side of the earth.
Penglai Mountain Kaguya was not a whim, but she suddenly had a very clear premonition: the other party was in real trouble, as if he would completely disappear from this world in the next moment, as if he would never exist again.
"Hey, you...... I'll go! β
Mu Xiu turned his head and widened his eyes, and was about to break free of the girl's palm, but his perception told him that it was completely too late, and he could only grit his teeth and raise the dim flames-
The burning flames ran around, enveloping the two of them together in an instant.
In the next moment, the two of them lost their perception of time and space at the same time.
