Chapter 35 Its name is verdant

Faced with such a highly intelligent creature, Xia Qiu decided to introduce himself first: "Hello, my name is Xia Qiu, and I am the human blood alliance contractor of the Demon King Fox. ”

She suddenly remembered that Ouyang Xiaoleng had said that there were no more than ten humans who had entered the demon realm for a long time, so when the white demon horse mentioned that he would be its second human contractor, it aroused her great interest. She couldn't help but start to look carefully at the demon horse in front of her, the delicate saddle it wore showed that it was different from other demon horses, especially the emerald green eyes as bright and translucent as emeralds.

"Then, I finally understand why the Tree of Life made you my contractor, my first contractor was the mother of the descendant of the Demon King Fox who made a contract with you! The Tree of Life is in the middle of the Demon Horse Forest, its existence is like the heart and brain here, its roots and branches that penetrate deep into the soil and participate in the sky can sense and receive everything here and even in the demon world. Of course......" the White Demon Horse paused to continue, "it will also connect us to our own suitable contractor through its perception, and I will take you to the Tree of Life in a moment, where we will complete the contract and make the secret words of the Night Elves." From then on, when you call out our secret words, the tree of life will bring me to you. ”

Everything it said was so complicated and interesting compared to what Yan Ming told her that she couldn't wait to see what the Tree of Life was like. But what attracted her the most at this moment was the pure white demon horse in front of her, what should I use to describe its beauty, elf? Mythical beasts? Or an angel?

"So, what are you waiting for? Ride on my back! The white demon horse reminded him when he saw that Xia Qiu had been stunned in place.

Xia Qiu had never ridden a horse before, and she didn't even know where to drag the stirrups to the horse's back, so she couldn't help but be embarrassed at the moment. She remembered that she had watched a similar program on TV, so she tentatively grabbed the horsehair and reins according to her memory, kicked the stirrup with her left foot, flipped on the horse's back as soon as she used force, and then kicked the stirrup on the right, the whole process was smooth and natural beyond imagination.

"Looks like you're not a beginner." The white demon horse seemed to be slightly relieved.

"Actually...... It was indeed my first time riding a horse. Xia Qiu replied truthfully.

"The only problem is that you sit too hard when you sit down, remember that horses other than me, you must sit gently, otherwise it is easy for them to be frightened. Grab the reins and horsehair, let's go! ”

As soon as the white demon horse's voice fell, it ran up, which caught Xia Qiu off guard, it was running too fast, and she had to lean down and try to stick to the horse's back. When she felt the wind whistling in her ears, she felt as if she and the white demon horse were one, and the horses in her own world definitely did not have such a galloping speed. It carried her across the river, through the herds of demon horses on the other side of the river, leaping among boulders and mountain streams, and then into a plain.

The Tree of Life was in the middle of the plains, its huge trunk and canopy visible even from a distance, and on the plains around it stood more demon horses, none of which were white.

"Come down!" The white demon horse gradually slowed down, stopped under the tree of life, and said to Xia Qiu.

Xia Qiu flipped off the horse's back, and suddenly felt that the tree of life was even taller, but other than that, it was no different from ordinary trees, and she couldn't understand how it communicated with people.

"Human girl."

An old voice echoed in her head, and the earth trembled.

"What is your name as the third human to enter the Demon Horse Forest so far? Well, summer and autumn. ”

She was surprised to guess the name she was about to utter before she could even open her mouth.

"It was Emerald who told me your name, and it seems that it is very satisfied with you as a contractor, and you have the same aura as its previous contractor." The Tree of Life said to itself, "Verdant is the name of this demon horse that is about to complete the contract with you, as you can see, it is a white demon horse that is rare to see in a thousand years, and it is also the only pure white demon horse left today. It has a lightness and agility that ordinary demon horses cannot match, it is more suitable for petite humans to ride than the taller demon horses, and its soul is as noble and pure as its bloodline, and only people with a pure heart as it can have it. I hope you understand its value and trust and cherish it more because of it! ”

"Well, I will!" Xia Qiu nodded in response.

She felt that Qingcui was Xiao Leng's mother Ran Susu's former mount, and now she would become her contractor, which was really like the arrangement of fate guiding in the dark.

"Put your hand on the verdant forehead and say it to me!"

Verdant approached Xia Qiu and lowered her head, letting her put her hand on its forehead, its silky hair revealing a hint of coldness coming from between her fingers.

"Summon, Wind Bringer, Night Elf, Verdant." The Tree of Life said.

"Summon, Wind Bringer, Night Elf, Verdant." She repeated it.

"Alright, now you can take your hands off."

She lowered her hand and found that the place on her verdant forehead where she had just touched was scalded with a golden circular totem of extremely intricate lines.

"This imprint is the contract between you and Jade, it cannot be dissolved until the end of your life, it is now your mount, wherever you are, just recite the secret words I just taught you, and Jadeite will appear in front of you." After the Tree of Life said this, the earth also fell into peace.

"Come up, I'll take you to the exit of the forest."

The verdant voice is neither humble nor arrogant, and for them, the user is not their master, but more like their companion and friend. This is also why as long as the contractor is called, no amount of hardship and danger can stop the demon horse from rushing towards them, even if there is a cliff or a sea of fire in front of them, they will go with the contractor without hesitation.

Xia Qiu was more skilled than when she first got on the horse, and she remembered that Cui had taught her to sit gently on the horse's back, and as soon as she sat upright, Qing Cui began to run, following the same path as she had come back to the other side of the river where they had met each other.

"Follow all the way back to Yongchuan, and I'm sure the person who guided you here has already taught you how to make a mark, and you should be able to find the right tree." After stopping, Verdant said to Xia Qiu.

"Hmm."

Xia Qiu dismounted, and once again carefully looked at her contractor's verdant, deeply imprinted its beautiful appearance in her mind, and then she reached out and touched its forehead, it couldn't help but close its emerald green eyes, let her caress wantonly.

"Keep the secret words in mind, we'll see you again soon!" When they parted, Qingcui instructed her.

She walked in the direction she had come, and soon found the tree with the red rope tied, and without hesitation, she walked towards the tree, and once again crossed the maze and returned to Yongchuan.

"Is everything going well?" Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't know when he was waiting at the entrance of the cave, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her, obviously he was still worried about her just now.

"You've been gone for so long, I remember it wouldn't take that long." Qianqi also came with Ouyang Xiaoleng because he couldn't wait.

"Maybe it's because I'm human, the Tree of Life has a lot to say to me, and it's been a bit thrilling just now." Xia Qiu couldn't help but recall the incident of being almost attacked by the demon horses, but fortunately Qingcui appeared in time, saying that he was really lucky, every time there was no danger.

"What kind of demon horse did you get?" Qianqi's eyes were full of curiosity.

"It's called Verdant, and it's a pure white demon horse." When Xia Qiu said this, he deliberately glanced at Ouyang Xiaoleng's expression.

The nerves on his face seemed to twitch when he heard the name Verdant, and then he said as if to himself, "That's a very good demon horse!" ”

"Well, I think so too." Xia Qiu nodded and smiled at him.

That night, they stayed in the courtyard behind the Auxiliary Star Hall to rest, and the exhaustion of returning from the Yellow Spring Kingdom made Xia Qiu quickly enter the dream. When she fell asleep, she saw Mei Jian again, she was still dressed in a red robe, wearing that expressionless white mask, sitting under the plum tree, in front of her was a small mat, on which was a set of milky white wine utensils, she summoned Xia Qiu to sit down opposite the mat and pour her a full glass of wine.

"Come, drink this bowl of plum wine." Mei Jian lifted the long sleeve on one side and picked up the flask to fill a glass for Xia Qiu, and then handed it to her.

Xia Qiu took a look, there was a small red plum blossom floating in the transparent wine, and with the shaking of the liquid in the cup, the flower also shook, and the shadow was full of shadows, very beautiful, so that she couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Then he couldn't help but drink all the wine in the cup, only to feel that his head began to become dizzy, but it was not uncomfortable, and then his body fell lightly, and Mei Jian came to her side at the first moment and put her head on his knees. She felt that she had fallen asleep, and it was a wonderful feeling, that she could dream in a dream, that she was indulging in a fragrance, like a flower, and the mellow fragrance of wine, which made people intoxicated, and she wanted to be like this all the time, drunk and tired of this, and never woke up.

When she opened her eyes again, she found that she was still in the same room as before, and when she sat up from the bed, she felt that she was much lighter from head to toe than before, and that the tiredness she had been swept away. She vaguely remembered that yesterday in a dream, when she was drunk, Mei Jian seemed to have injected part of her demonic power into her body, perhaps it was this reason that made her so energetic and powerful at the moment.

The three teenagers said goodbye to Ouyang Yong early the next morning, and he saw at a glance the change in Xia Qiu's complexion according to the day before, and after asking the reason, he had the answer: "Plum wine has the effect of smoothing the blood and meridians of the whole body, and at the same time has a calming effect, and Mei Jian uses it to remove the toxins of the Rakshasa Mother and the turbidity of the Yellow Spring in Xia Qiu's body, she sneaked into her dream to replenish her form, making her whole person as if she had been exchanged for blood, and then she lost part of her power to her, In order for her to recover as soon as possible. ”

"Will the power of the plum blade become weaker in this way?" Although he had known the difference between the plum blade and ordinary weapons, Xia Qiu listened to his words and couldn't help but worry about the plum blade in addition to being moved.

"Yes, but that's only temporary, because the biggest difference between the plum blade and other weapons is that she has vitality, and she will recover and grow together with the user, and when your strength becomes stronger, she will also become stronger, so don't worry too much."

Ouyang Yongcai was a little short of breath after speaking a few words, and the sweat also dripped down the crane hair and forehead, and several teenagers knew that they could no longer affect him when they saw this, so they said goodbye to him and Elder Cheng, and prepared to march towards Nanzhejiang City.
