In the house, the old village chief was scolding bitterly, but the woman named Ulan was emotionally broken and covered her face and sobbed, and on the wooden bed beside her lay a baby still wrapped in swaddling clothes, crying. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Four young men and women dressed in blue and white Qionghua costumes gathered in a circle, looking at the tragicomedy in front of them, with complicated expressions. I didn't expect that at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, there would be such a human hardship, and it was not a month or two, but a dilemma of years and decades, but no one cared about it.

If it's just that Murong Ziying doesn't know, it's understandable, but there are hundreds of disciples of the Qionghua Sect nearby, and there are nearly 100 people who can go down the mountain after some success, so is it true that no one has noticed the tragic situation in this Crescent River Valley? If that's the case, it's really a big laugh!

“…… Is there no other way? Han Lingsha said gloomily, seeing that the whole village was like this, she couldn't help but think of her Hanjia Village, although the problems encountered were different, but they were all in the dilemma of choking the lifeline of the whole village, which made her feel empathetic.

"There is a way, but it's too ......difficult," the old village chief Batu smiled bitterly, "The god yesterday told us, and I just remembered that the old priest who has passed away also mentioned this, there is a treasure called 'Water Spirit Bead' in this world, as long as you have it, the water source can be restored, and everything will change back to its original appearance." ”

Because he hadn't obtained the Earth Spirit Bead like in the original plot, Yun Tianhe scratched his head a little uncertainly, as if he was wondering what kind of 'water forest pig' was the breed of pig, so powerful?

Liu Mengli and Han Lingsha looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They are the ones who really know the goods, and naturally know the preciousness and difficulty of finding the five spirit beads, even if it is only one of them. Han Ling Shazu had been lucky enough to get Lei Lingzhu, and his understanding of this was probably even more profound.

However, the so-called endless road is probably like this......

Murong Ziying looked very surprised: "Water Spirit Bead? ”

"Old priest, that's exactly what he told me......" The old village chief of Batu nodded slightly, his tone was very affirmative, although he was old and weak, and his memory had also deteriorated, but he didn't even dare to leave a punctuation mark on the key information related to the survival of the village, and he definitely dared to guarantee it.

Liu Mengli's pair of water-cut eyes rippled slightly, and she asked softly, "Uncle Shi, do you know something?" The other two reacted almost immediately, and at the same time cast expectant glances at their titular uncle.

Murong Ziying frowned slightly, as if she was a little uncomfortable with the feeling of being expected by such a fiery gaze, but she quickly stretched it out again, looked at everyone and said, "If it is a water spirit bead, there is a glimmer of hope, because it is the treasure of this sect!" ”

After receiving the positive information, Han Lingsha was suddenly surprised: "Huh? There is such a coincidence in the world......" Before the girl's words fell, the door was pushed open again, and the three of them walked in with the hot and dry smell outside, and then closed the door again.

Everyone looked at each other, Murong Ziying's face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously pulled out a long sword and shouted angrily: "Demon! It's you!! ”

Yun Tianhe, Han Lingsha, Liu Mengli: "......"

When they heard the old village chief talk about the 'celestial god' who held a great power that was beyond the reach of human beings, they had a faint sense of immediacy, but after all, it was not a guess that they could not be determined by the old village chief's unilateral words by seeing it with their own eyes. But now it seems that he is really an acquaintance of his own group, and what Han Lingsha said is really right-

How could it be such a coincidence?!

"Yo! Ladies and gentlemen...... See you again! Pei Chen greeted them with a smile, looking very grinning, not taking the hostility of the blue-shirted swordsman in his eyes at all. After all, the space in this wooden house is so large, and it is crowded into eight adults, an evil god Lori and a baby at once, which is simply unprecedentedly crowded.

In such a situation, even Pei Chen's control ability would not dare to be sure that he would move the real character here a little, otherwise it would be easy to hurt the innocent and directly kill people. After all, ordinary people are simply too fragile for them now, they can't withstand a single energy or a thought, and it is too easy to cause murder if they are not careful......

Pei Chen didn't believe that with Murong Ziying's temperament, he would dare to take the lead in this place, without caring about whether he would hurt the innocent.

And everyone knows that once you don't do it at the first time when you see the enemy, then even if you have the conditions, it will be difficult to find a reason to do it, because you will always feel that something is not right, the atmosphere is not right, and the anger value also depends on the timing, occasion and atmosphere to explode, and the atmosphere and occasion will not explode if the atmosphere is wrong.

It's like when you get into a fight, you take off your shirts, but you don't take off your pants...... Well, although this metaphor is a bit bad, it's okay to use it for the time being, and you can roughly understand the meaning.

Sure enough, the blue-shirted swordsman forcibly suppressed his hostility, drawing his sword and slashing without conditioning or simply emitting sword qi, but the air was obviously much colder, and gloomy sword intent fluctuations filled the surroundings. The woman, who had managed to calm down, turned pale with fright, and the baby on the bed began to cry again.

"Ah, gods! Is that you?! You're back, you're finally back......"

Just hearing Murong Ziying's words, the old village chief of Batu, whose eyes lit up, saw Pei Chen and the others, first surprised, and then lowered his head with a face full of shame, not daring to look at Pei Chen and them. After all, he also knew how happy the villagers outside were, and although he could understand the despair and unreasonableness of their hopes when the information was insufficient, the old village chief still felt heartbroken!

Han Lingsha first secretly looked at Murong Ziying's pale and uncertain face, and after making sure that there would be no fight, he said with a smile: "I thought so before, but I didn't expect it to be you!" You're really good, how do you feel like I can meet you everywhere you go...... What a fate! ”

Han Lingsha, who is more experienced in human affairs, is better at seizing opportunities and wants to take the opportunity to resolve the contradiction between the two sides - of course, in fact, it is only the contradiction between Murong Ziying and Pei Chen, but it is too painful if they are always caught in the middle. If you have a chance to solve it, you have to seize the opportunity, and if you can solve it, you have to do it......

“…… Bad fate? It seemed that the girl in red was aroused by this similar words in her heart, and after hesitating for a long time, the monster asked with some uncertainty, and then Miss Han's bright eyes and smile suddenly darkened, and she said depressedly: "Count me cheap." ”

Liu Mengli couldn't help but laugh, and gently covered her mouth: "Poof~"

"That, Tenjin-sama!" Calling out the nondescript honorific title in his mouth, the old village chief of Batu once again showed the agility of an old man of his age who was completely inconsistent with the painting style of an old man of his age, and suddenly pounced in front of Pei Chen's body, skillfully grabbed the monster's arm and shook it vigorously, not noticing the cyan sleeves that slipped under his actions that could be called rude, and the cyan snake stripes on his fair-skinned arms.

"Please, you must forgive those people outside! They're just mortals, and they don't need to be as knowledgeable as them! The old village chief of Batu begged bitterly, and he almost didn't hurry to say words like 'The people outside are all Diao people, don't be like them, my lord', Pei Chen was speechless for a while.

"Don't worry, old village chief, none of us are angry about such a thing...... Uh, that's right, no......" Still with a gentle smile on his face, Pei Chen broke free of the old village chief's palm without a trace, and then felt the feeling of being gently poked in the back of the waist, and turned his head slightly but saw Naiyako's disapproving look, and his expression suddenly became far-fetched.

This Lori had already expected to meet the protagonist and his party.,In order to avoid trouble, she came again to transform into a magical girl.,Switch back to the form of the gothic Lori in a silver-haired black dress that the three of Yun Tianhe had seen before.。 Now with an expression of being afraid to see people or afraid to see so many people, he timidly grabbed Pei Chen's clothes and hid behind him, which was so flattering-

Except for Pei Chen, who knew the roots, the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Then again, you guys are really amazing! How do I feel like I'm going to be bumped into by you wherever I go? Could it be ...... Are you stalking us?! After dealing with the old village chief, Pei Chen looked at the protagonist group who had finally gathered enough people with a strange face, and his face was not red and his heart was not beating, but because the intelligence advantages of the two sides were completely unequal, and it was indeed he who came to Crescent Village first, no one doubted it.

"......" Only the shrine maiden seemed to feel a little ashamed, so she turned her head and stopped looking at their negotiations. But for Pei Chen, this is better, at least there is no need to worry about being demolished by the bellflower or something, and he can speak more confidently.

"What! You're so arrogant and annoying! This is obviously fate, okay? If it weren't for Mengli, who took a fancy to this place on the mountain, and said that he heard someone's cry for help after coming here, how could we be here?! Of course, Miss Han will never accept such a baseless slander, Liu Mei raised her eyebrows and crossed her hands on her hips and said menacingly.

However, her hurried statement also dispelled the last trace of doubt in Murong Ziying's heart, if this is the case, it seems that it can really only be described as coincidence or fate, right? Could it be that the other party can still predict his whereabouts and can ambush here? For the sake of the Water Spirit Bead?!

"Rhombosa!" Liu Mengli hurriedly shouted.

"Huh? Mengli, what's wrong? Han Lingsha turned her head and asked strangely.

"Is that so, tsk......" After successfully removing Murong Ziying's suspicions, Pei Chen took advantage of the situation and said, "Forget it, that ...... Next, I'm going to regulate the atmosphere of this Crescent River Valley, and if you're determined to fight, prepare it, otherwise I won't have much strength to defend against you when I'm done......"

He never took the initiative to mention the words of Shui Lingzhu, just to plan to put aside the relationship in the future.

It's just that the words he said so generously made Murong Ziying's mouth tremble with anger: "-No need!" I will go and ask the master for the water spirit bead, and then restore the water source here, and then fight you to the death...... You don't have to insult me like that!! The blue-shirted swordsman turned around angrily and brushed his sleeves, almost furious.

What is this? Do you think of yourself as a handy soldier to clean up? And such words are clearly ironic that he may sneak attack or something, which makes Murong Ziying, who has always demanded himself with the style of a gentleman, how can he bear it?

If it weren't for the fact that the aura of this monster had changed compared to a few days ago, it seemed to be even stronger, and if the atmosphere of the occasion was not suitable now, Murong Ziying wanted to shout angrily and stepped forward to fight to the death with the other party - but now it seems that the odds of winning are even lower, maybe this matter can be said slowly?

For example, when you can reforge the most suitable sword for yourself?

Frankly speaking, Murong Ziying was not afraid of losing in battle, and after several encounters, he gradually discovered that the demon in front of him seemed to have a relatively gentle temperament, not the vicious demon he imagined, and there would be no danger to his life when he fought with it. But even so, he had little interest in a doomed battle.

The monster in front of him didn't know what strange things he had eaten in the past few days, but his martial arts realm had advanced by leaps and bounds day by day - in his perception, the most obvious thing was that the qi on Pei Chen's body had emanated, and it had almost become a flawless whole with the earth under his feet and even the vast desert. And just subconsciously being hostile to him just now, Murong Ziying felt a premonition of danger, and she was terrified.

That feeling, as if I was rejected by the whole world here, every river valley, every hill and even every sand on the ground was also hostile to me, which can be described as the enemy of mountains and rivers! It's hard to move an inch!

Murong Ziying knew this, even if the realm level was difficult to say, but the other party was afraid that his strength had already surpassed the human realm, and he was unrivaled by immortals and gods, even if it was the power of gods and demons.

"Oh? If you have ambition, then I'll wait and see......" Pei Chen smiled, and then seemed to react after being stunned for a moment, and said with a surprised face: "Slow? What did you just say? Water Spirit Beads? …… The water spirit bead is actually in the Qionghua faction? ”

"What do you want to do?" Murong Ziying was very vigilant, and she didn't notice at all that the guy in front of her was actually giving them acting skills with fun.

"No, I just didn't expect it...... I only sighed yesterday that the spirit bead is hard to find, and today I heard the news......" Pei Chen pretended to sigh and said, "But are you sure you can really borrow the spirit bead?" I want to bring out the treasure of the town faction...... Do you think your boss will agree? ”

"This has nothing to do with you, so I don't have anything to say about it!" Murong Ziying said with a sneer, her tone was hard.

Although he doesn't have too much scheming and advocating chivalrous and gentlemanly style, this does not mean that he has no brains. No matter how kind the monster in front of him is, no matter how suspicious and motive he is, and no matter whether he can borrow the water spirit bead or not, the detailed information can never be easily leaked.

Because no one can say whether the monster in front of him will be temporary, once there is a problem, Murong Ziying feels that he is really to blame, and the treasure of the town sect like the Shui Lingzhu is because of his own problems, what face does he have to live in this ......

"Hey! Wait a minute! What's the matter with your unstable face, a moment of righteousness and awe-inspiring and a moment of tragic and tragic expression? Pei Chen suddenly interrupted his association with a strange interjection, "Then again, I just asked casually, what did you make up in your own brain!" ”

“……”

The atmosphere in the room was dead dead again, and it was embarrassingly quiet. Except for Naiako, who was thinking about something bad by herself, and the witch who looked like 'the world has nothing to do with me', everyone looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and I look forward to someone to break this terrible dead silence.

It's a pity that no one has the guts.

Even the old village chief of Batu, who had been trying to interject beside him, quietly shrunk his neck, feeling that the air temperature was not right, maybe it was evening so soon, and he needed to add some clothes?

……

……

It was about one o'clock after noon.

The crowd finally stopped arguing and reached an agreement that could barely be accepted by the three parties: Murong Ziying would report to the door when he went back this time, and borrowed the Water Spirit Bead to restore the water source of the Crescent River Valley. But the time may be a little longer, and he didn't believe Pei Chen, so he directly made it clear that Pei Chen would not be present at that time, and he still needed the supervision of the three people of Yun Tianhe, who had a friendship......

The old village chief heard that there could be such a good thing, so naturally there was no objection, and some people even clamored to drive Pei Chen and them out of the village directly to prevent accidents! And Pei Chen also had a gentle face, without the slightest resentment and anger about being treated unfairly and unequally, so he agreed.

It's a pity that this not only did not make some crazy villagers feel that he wanted to repay their grievances with virtue and kill them, but instead gave them the illusion that they were very good at talking and bullying, and they wanted to get an inch in their hearts.

Even Murong Ziying couldn't stand this kind of behavior, felt a wave of nausea and nausea, and left with the trio in a hurry.

When he raised his head and saw the four sword lights breaking through the air and leaving, the sword light led by him was particularly dazzling, but it was also even more embarrassed, Pei Chen couldn't help laughing.

Behind him, the silver-haired and black-dressed, gothic Lori couldn't help but complain: "Instant, Jun, didn't I say it, you would actually agree to the agreement without thinking about it?" Did you have a brain pump or something wrong? ”

"Go, go, you're just getting a brain pump! You don't want to think about it, Murong Ziying can't get the water spirit bead from the hands of that stingy master, the meaning of the existence of this agreement can be said to be no, even if it is all agreed, what can it be? Pei Chen laughed in a low voice, and seemed to be very happy.

"And it's just a verbal agreement, it doesn't have any binding force, even if I tear Murong Ziying directly, there's no way! Rather, his willingness to enter into such a verbal agreement with me is a sign that he is beginning to try to trust us...... Why are you so stupid...... Ahem, I mean, why can't you take a long-term view? ”

"Humph! Even if it is like this......" Naiyazi, who found that what Pei Chen said was Taoist, and Naiyazi, who couldn't catch the loopholes in his words, was very unhappy, and stretched out his hand to point to the villagers who were still wandering around the village, intentionally or unintentionally casting malicious glances at themselves and others: "How do you explain them?" ”

"Na Na...... Do a good deed every day, do a good deed every day! Treating them as NPCs with mission requirements doesn't have so much fire! Pei Chen's red eyes narrowed slightly, full of inexplicable smiles, "Besides, ...... Haven't you heard the saying, 'Heaven and earth will not be destroyed for one's sake'? ”

"Uh...... Don't tell me that you also believe in such a statement that simply excuses people who have done something wrong! Nayako's eyes widened in shock.

"What's the ...... In fact, I think you misunderstood, but the meaning of this sentence is actually ...... If you don't cultivate yourself first, then you will be intolerable by heaven and earth...... Think about it, even heaven and earth are going to destroy you, what right do you have to call yourself 'man'? I'm really sorry to be born......" Pei Chen sneered. (To be continued.) )
