The mountains in late autumn were full of dew, and in just ten minutes, Xia Beifeng already felt that his trousers were soaked.

The airtight sweatpants were wet with water and clung to his legs, becoming heavier and heavier.

What a mistake!

He looked at Shen Qingge, who was bouncing on the ground in front of him, and sighed silently.

Just thinking that this guy would be stabbed when he walked bare-legged on the mountain road, I forgot that she was different from my species and was not afraid of these things.

"So, there are other friends living in this mountain? What else is there besides friends 'over there'? Xia Beifeng followed behind Shen Qingge with great difficulty, and took a few steps to rest for a while: "It's just a little farther, why do I feel so tired, shouldn't it!" ”

"I think it's okay to be a little tired, and I can probably get used to it after staying a little longer. The air in this mountain is not suitable for human life like you, and there are a lot of youkai. Shen Qingge stretched out the spear in his hand to him: "Do you want me to pull you?" ”

"No need, I really let you pull like this, I feel like I'm blind."

Xia Beifeng waved his hand at Shen Qingge, bent down and took a few breaths, and when he raised his head again, his face was much better: "You said it earlier, I'll find a way to solve it." ”

"Do you have a way to solve this kind of thing?"

Shen Qingge looked at him in surprise and withdrew his gun: "Didn't you see it, your master taught you so many things?" ”

"If he hadn't taught me, wouldn't I have learned it myself?" Xia Beifeng raised his right hand and shook it at her twice: "It's all up to him to teach me that I've died hundreds of times, and it's not reliable." ”

The inside of his wrist was a crimson pattern at some point, and the complicated lines were twisted and twisted, looking like some alien text, and the strange red light flowed in the blood-drawn pattern, as if it was alive.

"This thing." Shen Qingge frowned, observed the pattern for a while, touched his chin, and said seriously: "I haven't seen it, I don't know it." ”

"Hey, hey."

Xia Beifeng put down his hand proudly, jumped to Shen Qingge's side in two steps, and said triumphantly: "How can I let you know everything, you just need to know that I am powerful." ”

"But, I feel like you're a pretty evil thing." Shen Qingge walked side by side with him, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "It's better to use less, does your master know about this thing?" ”

"Yes." Xia Beifeng said briskly.

"Really?"

"Really...... Can you please stop looking at me like that, I'm not a kid in junior high school, and I won't mess with that mess. I'm more afraid of death than anyone else, and you don't know. ”

Hearing this, Shen Qingge withdrew his suspicious scrutiny and waved his hand at him: "Okay, just let it be true when what you say is true." ”

"Whatever you call it should be true." Xia Beifeng seemed to want to refute something, but he forcibly held back halfway through speaking.

Really discussing this matter with her is estimated to be endless, obviously no one can compare to the guy in front of him when it comes to evil spirits, but that person has no self-knowledge, and he puts on an elder posture at every turn, teaching others to follow the right path.

"I see, I won't mess around. When will we be able to arrive? ”

"If it's fast, it'll take ten minutes, and if it's slow, it may take a long time."

Shen Qingge bent down into a one-person-high grass, turned around and waved excitedly to Xia Beifeng.

"Hurry up, get through the grass, this is the path I found, only I know."

Xia Beifeng looked at her ostentatious expression, and said perfunctorily with a smile: "Oh, it's amazing." ”

When Shen Qingge heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, and walked through the grass with his waist bent.

It's not so much a path......

Xia Beifeng followed behind Shen Qingge and also got into the grass.

Where is there a road here, ****** is completely off-road, right?

Shen Qingge was small, and after getting into the grass, he jumped around, like a small animal that had lived here since childhood. The person who led the way looked very relaxed and flexible, but this made Xia Beifeng a big man.

Fortunately, he is quite experienced in cross-country activities, although the "road" condition is very bad, he can barely keep up with Shen Qingge's footsteps, and he has never been too far away.

According to Shen Qingge, there should be a lot of man-eating things in this mountain. It's really far away, and you can't necessarily see anything, so it's safer to follow that old undead zombie.

Xia Beifeng thought so, and really wanted to crawl through the grass with both hands and feet, so as to catch up with Shen Qingge, who was hidden from time to time in front of him.

"I say, Ancestor." Xia Beifeng shouted loudly: "Isn't it annoying that Ghost King senior to live in this place? It's grass and trees, and I'm going to be annoyed to death when I go out. ”

"We're not going to the place where the ghost king lives now." Shen Qingge's voice came from the grass not far ahead: "Who told you that we are going to the place where the Ghost King lives. ”

"Isn't it?"

Xia Beifeng brushed aside the blades of grass in front of him that blocked his vision, and still didn't see Shen Qingge, who should be not far away, so he could only rely on her voice to discern the direction.

"And where are we going?"

"Of course we're going to ......"

Shen Qingge replied briskly, and suddenly stopped.

"Xiaobei." When her voice sounded again, her tone sounded solemn: "Come and take a look." ”

Xia Beifeng hurriedly quickened his pace and caught up with Shen Qingge.

Shen Qingge was lowering his head, looking at something under his feet, and the expression on his face was very serious.

"How ......"

Xia Beifeng just wanted to ask her in a whisper, but saw her stretch out her index finger and dot on her lips.

"Shh......h

Shen Qingge silently gestured at him.

"Shut up."

Xia Beifeng immediately closed his mouth and lowered his head to look in the direction where Shen Qingge's gaze fell. At the same time, a hand reached behind him, grasped the hilt of the knife, and stared warily at the green blade of grass.

There was only a patch of green weeds.

Strange to say, it is already autumn in this mountain, and the temperature is even cooler than the town below. Most of the branches and leaves of the trees I saw on the way into the mountain in the morning were dry and yellow, but the grass was verdant and green, and there was no sign of the change of seasons.

Shen Qingge stared at the ground under his feet for a long time before slowly raising his head, looking around vigilantly, and finally raising his chin at Xia Beifeng, silently asking him if he had found anything.

Xia Beifeng helplessly spread his hands, saying that he hadn't found anything.

Even though he didn't notice anything, he drew his knife from behind him and pointed it defensively in one direction.

Something should be watching them both, that's what his instincts told him.

There was nothing there, just a leafy weed, which was his visual feedback.

Seeing this, Shen Qingge also looked in that direction.

She blinked, confused, "Huh? With a sigh, he raised the gun in his hand and gently poked the weed.

The grass stalks shook slightly with the movement of her hand, colliding with the blades of grass around her, making a small cracking sound, and it looked like nothing out of the ordinary.

The two glanced at each other, and the expressions on their faces invariably became solemn.

What the hell is it? Will it be invisible?

A gust of wind blew, bringing up the grass like waves, and the rustling sound sounded like someone was whispering.

"Ah, forget it, no matter!" Shen Qingge suddenly shouted, simply turned around, and continued to walk in the direction where he was originally going: "What is sneaky, ignore it, let's go!" ”

"Huh?" Xia Beifeng looked at Shen Qingge's righteous and awe-inspiring back in surprise, and glanced at the green and straight weed again with some unease, and helplessly followed Shen Qingge's footsteps.

"Is that okay? What the hell is that thing, I don't care about it......"

Xia Beifeng asked hesitantly, "There won't be any trouble going back." ”

"What if you're in trouble?" Shen Qingge waved the spear in his hand, pushed away the weeds blocking the road in front of him, and gritted his teeth and said: "It's just a group of little things hiding in the dark and not daring to come out, I don't believe what it can do to me, if it's powerful, bite me!" ”

Fragments of grass fell from the one-man tall grass. Shen Qingge's behavior that seemed to open the way was actually quite effective, but in just a short time, he had already carved out a path in the grass that had not been recorded at all for a person to easily pass.

She vented for a while, seemed to calm down, and turned her head to warn Xia Beifeng: "I'm not afraid of that thing, it's better to be careful with your words." It's a nuisance to pester, and I can't keep an eye on you...... Alas, poor man! Why are you so vulnerable? ”

"I think I'm relatively less vulnerable in the human population."

Xia Beifeng made a difficult excuse. But he still followed her words, clenched the knife in his hand, and was always vigilant against the danger around him that he didn't know where it would come from.

"But it seems to me that you are all the same." Shen Qingge said without hesitation: "Battle five scum! ”

"Of course I can't be as hard and strong as you, so please protect the little one, Ancestor."

Shen Qingge first froze when he heard this, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"What are you talking about?" She laughed and turned the spear back as if it was a stick or something, and pumped it towards Xia Beifeng's leg: "What do you mean by hard and strong, what do you think of me, do you say that girl!" ”

She swung the gun so low that it almost touched the ground. Xia Beifeng dodged the attack with just a slight jump, smiled triumphantly at Shen Qingge, and gave a thumbs up.

"How can you be considered a girl, you are simply a heroine, a strong woman...... Oh no...... I was wrong. ”

He bent down to dodge Shen Qingge's angry attack again, and took a step back with a hippie smile, the expression on his face quickly becoming serious.

"You're the general." He nodded and said solemnly.

With that, he sprang sideways into the grass and laughed out loud.

The glittering silver head of the spear swept over his head, shaving off a large tip of grass. With a bit of a cold air, it makes people feel a tingling scalp.

"It's dangerous...... it's dangerous," Xia Beifeng poked his head out of the grass again, patted his chest and said, "I almost became bald." ”

"It's not bad to be bald! Bald and bright look very strong. ”

Shen Qingge said in a brisk tone, flicked the spear in his hand again, and swung it towards the top of Xia Beifeng's head.

"I'm going to help you get stronger again!"

"I don't want to look so strong, I have to be low-key, you know?"

He squatted on the ground again to dodge the attack from overhead, and looked up to say something, but his eyes widened suddenly when his gaze swept over a certain point behind Shen Qingge, and he blurted out and shouted, "Watch the back!" ”

"What's in the back! Although your acting skills are really good, you think I will ......"

Shen Qingge mocked Xia Beifeng's small means of changing the topic, and stabbed the gun at Xia Beifeng's side again with a light smile.

The silver spear head stayed above Xia Beifeng's shoulder for a moment, then quickly retracted, and crossed an arc in mid-air, sweeping away an unknown number of blades of grass.

The metal made an eerie sound as it rubbed against the air, sounding like some unknown beast howling.

“…… Will I believe your nonsense? ”

Shen Qingge was stunned and completed the half sentence that he hadn't finished just now. She looked at the little green thing on the head of her spear and blinked a few times before she reacted to scream.

"Ahh

She quickly took two steps back, holding the silver spear in her hand high, and leaned on Xia Beifeng's arms.

"Xiaobei! This, this, this...... What the hell is this! ”

"It turned out that it was a snake staring at us just now!"

Xia Beifeng looked at the thing hanging on Shen Qingge's wall, and nodded thoughtfully

"It's so small, no wonder we didn't see it lying on the grass."

Hanging from the head of the gun was a small half of the soft snake body, and a very fine stream of red blood soaked through the bright red spike, which was slowly flowing down the lines on the handle of the gun.

The snake was no bigger than a little finger, its triangular head was the size of a coin, its body was covered with tiny scales of tender green, and its red eyes were slowly closing.

This snake was probably the culprit of the little murderous intent that the two of them had just felt in the grass. When it stared at the two of them at that moment, it was probably because the color of its body was too close to the blade of grass, and it was very small, and if it shrunk up and coiled under a leaf in the grass, it would not be easy to spot.

"I think this color is pretty good, but you're so scared."

Xia Beifeng raised his hand and grabbed Shen Qingge's shoulder and shook it twice.

"It's just a snake, it's dead, and it didn't bite you, wake up!"

"Huh?" Shen Qingge shook his body twice with Xia Beifeng's movements, and then he came to his senses, and shouted loudly again: "Ahhh ”

"It's a snake, and you've hacked it to death. The body is in a different place, and there is no corpse, which is a tragedy in the world. ”

Xia Beifeng calmly described the snake's death, and at the end he didn't forget to mock Shen Qingge: "How can you be afraid of snakes?" In the eyes of us humans, you are a much more terrifying species than a snake! ”

"How do you talk to the elders!"

Shen Qingge turned her head angrily, slapped Xia Beifeng's hand on her shoulder, glared at her and said word by word: "I'm a girl, girls are afraid of snakes, don't you know?" ”

"Okay, okay, I'm sure you're a girl."

Xia Beifeng raised his two hands, made a gesture of surrender, and said helplessly: "I've been scared for so long, so I've calmed down." Take off the half of your gun and put it away. Although this thing is a little smaller, it can't be eaten on a grill, but it should still be okay to soak in wine. ”

As he spoke, he took two steps forward, picked up the back half of the snake god that fell to the ground, and looked at it in his hand for a while: "This green is so fresh, it should be poisonous...... It's still a hassle to deal with it in retrospect. ”

"It's all poisonous, but I'm fine. If you're afraid of being poisonous, forget it. ”

Shen Qingge shook the head of the spear, trying to make the half of the snake god fall off by itself: "Why can't it come down obediently by itself, I don't dare to touch it...... Xiaobei, can you take it down! ”

"It's all dead, and they can't bite you. Besides, even if it bites you while you're alive, it can't do anything to you, so why don't you dare to touch it! Xia Beifeng turned his head helplessly, looked at the half-cut snake body hanging on the head of the gun and swaying and refused to fall, and sighed helplessly: "You let me help you get it down, don't shake it!" ”

"Snake, it's covered in scales, it's slippery and cold, it's disgusting just to think about it! If you let me touch it, you might as well let me die! ”

Shen Qingge complained coquettishly, stretched out the head of the gun in front of Xia Beifeng, closed his eyes tightly, and turned his head away from looking at this scene.

"Take it off quickly!"

"Don't forget that you've been dead for years."

Xia Beifeng stated this fact expressionlessly, and raised his hand to pick up the snake body that was half hung on the head of the spear.

Just as his fingers were about to touch the cold scales of the snake, a sudden change occurred.
