Chapter 7 Can You Eat Flowers When You Are Hungry?
Qiu Tong stopped on a flat ground and stabilized his body, the first thing he did was to immediately let go of the hand holding the moon string.
"I don't like to touch people. β
Yuexian rubbed her wrist, which was red when she was fighting just now, "En." She replied simply.
"Do you know what happened just now?" Qiu Tong looked at her.
"What's wrong with me?" Tsukistring looked at the other party defiantly.
"You volunteered to be my subordinate. Since you promised to be my subordinate, why don't you listen to what I, as my boss, say. Qiu Tong said.
"Don't talk nonsense, I promised to be your subordinate, however, where does the person who spoke to me just now look like a little boss? What I saw was clearly an older brother who doted on his sister, watching his sister bully others. Yuexian sneered.
"Heh, interesting," Qiu Tong smiled and looked at Yuexian, "For the first time, someone said that I was an unqualified boss. You're so daring. β
Yuexian pursed her lips and looked at him with a smile, not saying anything.
"I'll admit it, I just connived at Leadhua to bully you," Qiu Tong's expression returned to his usual arrogance, "But, as a subordinate, your attitude is also a little arrogant." Let's compete and see if I'm qualified to be your boss. β
Yuexian's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then, she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Just what I want." β
"I'm four years older than you, for the sake of fairness, I won't show my true body and fight with you, your words, feel free. Qiu Tong took out his sword, took a step back, and looked at the moon string.
"You like to use it or not, as long as you don't cheat when you lose. Yuexian also took a step back and looked at the other party defiantly.
The place where they were located was a meadow near the water, and the water flowed down the hills, so the place where they were now was not narrow, but not open either.
The moon string released her demonic power, and her original black eyes turned into lake green at this moment, exuding a deep light, her long hair turned into the color of the sky, and her skin was as white as porcelain, making her so beautiful that she couldn't eat the fireworks of the world. However, compared to her stunning appearance, her limbs had incompatible claws, and her hands and feet were covered with pitch-black scales. Due to her impure blood, she does not have the beautiful scales and graceful tail of a mermaid. At this moment, she is beautiful and ugly, this is the true face of the mermaid and the son of the union of humans.
At the moment of releasing the demonic power, Yuexian did not take the lead in attacking, but all kinds of lure enemies, she wanted to see what stunts and abilities the other party had.
Qiu Tong is not weak, and in several dangerous attacks of Yuexian, he dodged just right. And took the opportunity to create conditions for attacking, and the tip of the sword stabbed the moon string several times.
After a brief probing, Tsukistring sensed the gap in combat experience between her and Akiri.
That guy can really be described as cunning, obviously she is faster than him in speed, but she has been dodged by the other party just right in several sneak attacks and poisoning. What's even more hateful is that he also lied to her tricks and made her let go a few times in vain.
If it weren't for the fact that the opponent didn't show his true body, his strength and speed were lower than his own, and Yuexian would have no chance of a tie with the opponent at all.
Yes, the final result was a tie between Qiu Tong and Yuexian.
"Are you really only twelve?" Qiu Tong looked at Yuexian in disbelief.
"Hmph, I just wanted to ask, are you really four years older than me? Your cunning appearance is no different from that old man in his fifties and sixties. Yuexian also looked at each other dissatisfied.
"Looks like I'm underestimating you. β
"Each other, each other. β
"So what are you going to do next?" asked Yuexian.
"I want you to stay, but I won't force you to do things with commanding tones anymore. β
"I think about it. Well, it looks like I don't suffer much, okay. β
"Then, Yuexian, we'll see you in Jincheng. β
"Yes. β
After saying that, Yuexian didn't think much about it, turned around and prepared to walk to the other side of the meadow. As she left, she reined in her demonic power and turned into her original appearance.
"The disciple of the king of the green snake is really a little powerful. Qiu Tong silently looked at Yuexian's back as she walked away, "I hope you won't let me down in the future." β
Qiu Tong let out a long roar to the sky, and a big fiery bird quickly crossed the sea of clouds from the sky, and heard the sound.
When Qiu Tong took off on the red bird, the moon string looked back at him with the sound of his whistle.
Watching the big red bird fly into the sky and rush into the sea of clouds, Yuexian was inexplicably a little envious, is this the world of her half blood? One day, can she also ride that kind of bird and fly high in the clouds?
That's something you can't do as a human being.
When she came back to her senses, she found that she was a little cold, and it turned out to be evening.
They fought, did they fight for that long?
The cold of the spring evening was heavier, and Yuexian's shoes were torn out when she was transformed, and she stepped barefoot on the grass, and she suddenly remembered the life of living on the streets when she was six years old.
She took out a pair of shoes from the small bag she was carrying, changed them, and when she put them on, her stomach "gurgled" again.
It seems that after tossing and turning this day, she still hasn't eaten a grain of rice in her stomach. Although she had been trained in hunger by the old man of the devil before, she was still at the age of growing her body, and her stomach would be uncomfortable if she didn't eat. So, eating became the first thing to do.
Her place was far from the village, and she was not happy to ask her to go back to the town to find something to eat, after all, she no longer wanted to have anything to do with it.
It seems that the only way to find some game is to find some game.
However, by the time the moon came out of the forest, the beasts had already returned to their nests, and it was not easy to find a game.
She walked some way out of the wasteland and finally found a place with a forest.
When she stepped into Senli, Yuexian suddenly remembered that she had forgotten a very important thing, that is, to ask Jincheng for the way.
What kind of place is that? To the east or to the south? She didn't have any clues.
Her boss had already gone home for dinner on his mount, and it was impossible to ask him again.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. Yuexian walked depressedly into the depths of the forest.
In the woods, I don't know whether to go south or north, Yuexian walked for a while, and suddenly smelled a faint aroma, she sniffed, "Uh, it's the fragrance of pear blossoms, and it's not impossible to eat nectar." When I was hungry before, it wasn't that I didn't eat flowers. I just don't know how much honey there is in that little flower. β
In this faint fragrance of flowers, the moon string continued to walk forward.
"Huh...... Hehehe...... "A few laughs came from the position where the pear blossoms were fragrant, and Yuexian couldn't help but feel excited, could it be anyone?"
Although I don't know what I was doing in the woods in the wilderness at night, if there were people, it meant that there was something to eat. When they go out at night, they must bring some dry food, right?
Yuexian thought a little excitedly, her stomach was probably because of her excitement, and then the "grunt" sounded again.
She sniffed, and the fragrance of pear blossoms came from the direction of her right hand, about a hundred meters or so. Looks like it's closer to her.
She reined in her breath and walked lightly over there.
The laughter is getting clearer and clearer, and you can even hear each other's conversations clearly. It's a woman.
"I heard that there will be a fairy gathering in Zhushan at midnight tonight, and it is said that many strange treasures and spiritual cultivation utensils will appear in this gathering, so let's go there and join in the fun. A coquettish voice said excitedly.
"It's okay to go, but we're ghosts, not demons, and they're going to let us in?" said an equally coquettish voice.
"Hehe, you can't think of a way?"
"What's the solution?"
"Silly Nizi. For example, it is attached to a weaker demon?"
"Huh. That's a good idea, so do as you say. It's still early in the ion time, let's go to Zhushan first, and we will definitely find a little monster. β
Ghosts, demons, gatherings, spiritual cultivators, what are these?
Moonstring's curiosity is strongly aroused. Eventually, she planned to follow the two female ghosts to the bamboo mountain they said they were talking about.
If you eat, let's be hungry first, I'm almost too hungry anyway.
If you're too hungry, you're not so hungry.
When following the two female ghosts, Yuexian once again admired the old man's high-intensity training for her, because those two female ghosts who were fluttering, like birds flying through the forest, her agility was not inferior to them, and she thought that their speed was slow.
I followed them past a wood, across a stream, and over two low hills, without resting on their breath, but also without feeling too tired.
Finally, I came to a forest and saw a mountain covered by green bamboos about a third of the way.
"It's here. The two female ghosts said to each other happily.
"What do you think we're going to buy then?" said a female ghost.
"Buy a Soul Gathering Bead, with the Soul Gathering Bead, our cultivation will be twice as effective with half the effort. The other female ghost said with a smile.
"I wish there was this thing for sale at this rally. After all, the Soul Gathering Bead is not something that ordinary demons can get their hands on. β
"It's okay, we can look at other things without the Soul Gathering Bead, maybe we can find some good cultivation treasures." β
"Huh. Said yes. Let's go find a demon possession. β
When she heard them say "Gathering Soul Beads", Yuexian was secretly a little excited. Because of her previous wandering experience, she has a special attachment to expensive jewelry or something. Because, if you take those things out and sell them, you can sell them for a lot of money.
Yuexian felt that she was lucky today, although she was hungry, but she found a place with treasures.
She decides, no matter what, to steal some and sell them for money. Thank you, Master Devil, for giving me the opportunity to make a lot of money today!"
Walking out of the sparse woods, Moonstring came to a place with stone steps. She touched the stone steps, and there was some kind of power exuding. She looked up the stone steps, which meander all the way, sometimes hidden under the verdant bamboo forest, sometimes emerging from somewhere.
So weird road, it should be it. She looked at her with a sinister eyebrow.
When I stepped on the stone steps, I found that I felt like I was stepping on a wooden bridgeβthe kind of wooden plank bridge that had been stepped on for many years, and was somewhat unstable.
Could it be because he was only half of the demon's blood?" she guessed in her heart.
It's a really uncomfortable feeling. Obviously, what I saw in front of me was a solid stone staircase, but when I walked up, I found that it was a ladder built casually with wooden planks, and what I saw was different from what I felt, which made people feel insecure.
After walking cautiously for a while, she gradually got used to the feeling, and found that there was nothing in it. Although it was not a firm step, I could still walk, and I showed no signs of being thrown off by it.
As her uneasiness calmed down, she became curious about the fairy's bazaar.
I have to say, it was really an eye-opening world for her. The stone steps she saw were lined with lanterns hanging on the bamboos at intervals. The slender bamboo poles are hung with lanterns that glow pink or orange, how to look at it and how you like it.
She saw that the lanterns were painted with the appearance of some dancing girls, and each lantern had a dancing girl with different dance movements, although the dancing queen's face was a little strange, either fox ears or cat ears, and blue eyes or golden eyes...... But in general, it made people feel the lively atmosphere of the festival.
She walked cautiously all the way, watched cautiously all the way, and slowly, she had climbed halfway up the mountainside.
