In the twilight of spring, when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the flowers wither, the greenery is the strongest, and the breeze blows, bringing a little sweetness of green plums.

Yang Su heard the crying, doubted, got up and walked out of the house, and saw two villagers working outside the courtyard wall from a distance, and asked, "What are the two eldest brothers doing?"

The villagers said in fear, "The village chief instructed us to cook some green plum wine and serve the immortals. ”

Yang Su stepped forward and saw that the two of them had set up a stove, and a pot of wine was boiling on the stove, and the wine was mixed with fruity aroma, which had a unique flavor.

If you are courteous to others, you will ask for something. Yang Su had already heard of the strange things in the village, and naturally knew the reason why these villagers treated them so well, and asked, "Do you know clearly about the demon entering the village and abducting children?"

When the villagers were asked about this, one of them looked sad and angry, and sobbed softly, "Why don't you know? Last year, my child was taken by a monster on the second day of his birth." ”

The other person was a little older, more knowledgeable, and knew the age of the destiny of heaven, so he was a little calmer, and sighed, "In the past fifteen years, this village has not been peaceful, and many families have moved out of here because they can't bear the pain of losing their children. ”

"If this place is so dangerous, why don't you move the village?"

The elder villager replied, "We went up the mountain to avoid the turbid world and seek a quiet, our ancestors finally opened a foundation here, we have to keep this foundation, besides, the monster actually does not hurt people, and can deter fierce beasts, so we can live here in peace." Although the children who were taken were miserable, they were nothing compared to the fate of the village, and they were sacrificed to serve the gods. ”

Yang Suqi said, "When I entered the village, I didn't see any children in the village, and I thought they were all taken by monsters.

"Not necessarily, the children in the village are not allowed to go out until they reach adulthood, so it is taboo in the village that you can't see them. This monster comes about once every three months, and each time it acts at the end of the moon, and prefers to take away newborn babies the most. ”

While talking, Li Xiangqiu, Xie Qi and others also came out of the house, followed the fragrance of wine, and praised them one by one. The two villagers hurriedly poured wine for them and served them very respectfully.

The green plum wine is indeed a little extraordinary, after boiling thoroughly, there is no bitterness at all, the wine is full of sweetness, Yang Su drank it all, only felt that the aftertaste was endless.

Xie Jue drank a few glasses, then said goodbye to everyone and said with a smile, "It's up to you to do things here." He was anxious to report the matter of the demon text to his master, but he didn't say much, and went straight away from the flying sword.

Yang Su drank two cups and asked the older villagers, "I heard a family crying incessantly, very miserable, is that monster coming in the near future?"

"That's right, the time when his child was born was not good, just in time to catch up with the monster, I'm afraid he won't be able to save it. ”

Li Xiangqiu raised his eyebrows and said loudly, "Why do you say these frustrating words? When we encounter such injustices, how can we sit idly by? If that monster comes, I will just catch it, and I can ask to understand, if it is really harmful, it will not be spared, and it will be smashed into its nest, so that it will not be able to live in peace." ”

The elderly villagers shook their heads with worried faces, and boiled some more plum wine for everyone to enjoy.

Cultivators of immortals have a lot of moderation, although the wine is good, it will be in moderation, they drink some, and go back to the house one after another to meditate and practice, and understand the metaphysics.

Li Xiangqiu put down his wine glass, pointed to the villagers and said in a deep voice, "You take me to that house to see." She turned to look at Yang Su again, "Yang Daoyou, you won't stay out of the matter, right?"

Yang Su said, "This matter is not simple, and it is legitimate to seek the truth." ”

The elderly villagers took the two to the house where they had the baby, and they heard the mourning from afar, which made people feel sad. When they walked to the door, they met the village chief who sighed and came out, and the village chief bowed and saluted, "The immortal family doesn't have to work hard, this family insists on moving down the mountain, and they can't keep it." ”

The older villager exclaimed, "Why are you so confused?

The village chief said angrily, "Who says it's not? Everyone was supposed to stop thinking together, this is all the destiny of heaven, how can they ruin the whole village's qi because they care for their own children? Since they want to leave, they will leave, and when they encounter monsters, they will hurt the lives of the whole family, and they can't complain about others." ”

Li Xiangqiu said, "We stayed in the village, just waiting for the demon to be subdued, didn't you make it clear to them?"

The village chief said helplessly, "It's clear, they just don't believe it." The ability of monsters, everyone has seen it, swallowing clouds and spitting fog, galloping, capturing people and things, not seeing the real body, very powerful. He glanced at Li Xiangqiu suspiciously, "You are all immortal cultivators, and you have the ability to think about it, but seeing is believing, and everyone doesn't dare to be gullible, for fear of offending the gods." ”

"If this is to be said, I will show my hand to see whether they believe it or not. Go and call them out. ”

The village chief looked overjoyed, went back to the house and called out all the family members who had given birth, and ordered the older villagers to beat gongs and drums to gather all the villagers and come to watch.

Li Xiangqiu didn't want to disappoint the villagers, so he used the ability to fly a sword, and when the sword flew away, a mountain a few miles away was directly cut off, and the sound shook the sky.

Yang Su was also a little moved when he saw it, cutting off the mountain peak was nothing, but there was still such power in the number of flying swords, it was different, when the so-called qi was exhausted, the end of the strong crossbow could not penetrate Lu Min. Although the strength of his heavy sword was heavier, it was difficult to use it without his hands, and his sword qi was not as strong as ten zhang.

When the villagers saw this kind of divine power, they all shouted loudly, and Li Xiangqiu said proudly, "This is just a subtle technique, and let you see my stunt." After speaking, she took out a short sword from her arms, and after unsheathing, she saw that the purple qi in the sword was clear, like the most spiritual light in the morning glow, "This 'Purple Cloud Sword' is a heirloom treasure on Qixia Mountain, very supernatural, you can see it." ”

Li Xiangqiu sacrificed the purple cloud sword in the air, this short sword rose with the wind, and suddenly rose to dozens of zhang long, overwhelming the heaven and earth, and the purple qi overflowed from the sword, during which the thunder surged, as if to descend heavenly punishment.

Yang Su was surprised in his heart, he could clearly perceive that these purple qi were also transformed by the Dao source, after artificial tempering, the acquired one, the wind and thunder attribute was particularly prominent, compared with the innate Dao source in his Yuan Shen, it was difficult to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages, each with its own merits. He even felt that this kind of Dao Source power might have some attribute advantages over the Innate Dao Source. Just like made of nature, extremely simple, after the axe and chisel, it is even more miraculous.

Li Xiangqiu took the Purple Cloud Sword and said with a smile, "With such a method, it is possible to deal with that monster?"

The village chief said happily, "The immortal family is so clever, and we will be at ease." ”

The village woman held the baby in her arms, bowed down in front of Li Xiangqiu with her family, and begged in a crying voice, "The fairy family saves my child." ”

Li Xiangqiu picked up the village woman and said with a smile, "Needless to say, you all go home and wait in peace, if the monster comes to the door, it will just fall into my hands." ”

When the villagers heard this, their hearts were happy, and they dispersed, and the village chief turned around and asked, "The fairy family catches demons, but what do you need me to prepare?"

Li Xiangqiu said with a smile, "The green plum wine in the village is very delicious, you can prepare some for us to celebrate." ”

Yang Su and Li Shangqiu returned to the courtyard where they lived, and called out the people under the door, and Li Shangqiu ordered, "You can set up an enchantment outside the village and ambush that monster." Everyone agreed, and Li Xiangqiu reminded, "The enchantment should be arranged farther away, so as not to destroy the village when fighting with that monster." ”

"I'm afraid that there will be some negligence and let the monster escape. ”

"It's okay, since we want to save people, don't hurt the foundation of others, you just need to keep an eye on the monster's movements, and don't be afraid that it will get away. ”

After Li Xiangqiu finished arranging, he asked Yang Su again, "The mountain you entered only after being appointed by the Tianyin Sect, if you linger in the mountain for a long time, won't it arouse suspicion?"

Yang Su actually had this doubt, "I have long planned to use this body to infiltrate the Tianyin Sect to explore the truth and truth, and I will stay here for two days at most, and then I will go back to restore my life." ”

Li Xiangqiu sighed, "What you did was very dangerous, everyone in the Heavenly Yin Sect was cunning, it was not easy to hide from them, you could get that ancient book of demon scripts from them, it was really a fluke." ”

Yang Su saw that Li Xiangqiu was worried, so he used the power of the innate Dao source to disguise the aura of a Yin Vulture Deacon, vividly, that kind of insidious and vicious, life-seeking Yama-like temperament is the same, "This look, you can tell the truth from the fake?"

Li Xiangqiu couldn't help but sneer, "It looks like it's very similar, but it leaked the stuffing as soon as I opened my mouth." You still have to think about the character of the demonic demons, and even if you understand it, you may not be able to do it. You still have to think about getting out as soon as possible. ”

Yang Sushen thought so, how could a bad guy pretend, how could he be convincing if he didn't carry a few unjust souls on his hands? It's just that people who cultivate immortals are all their duty to eliminate demons and defend the way, thinking of Li Xi, Huzi and those townspeople whose fate is controlled by others, he can't bear it in his heart, and wants to use all means to untie the shackles set on the wind and rain town. Huzi is still enduring the punishment of hunger, and he must at least go back as soon as possible to save this stubborn young hunter, "By the way, do you remember that Zhang Orion who took us into the mountains?"

Li Xiangqiu listened, took a sip, and scolded, "This thief will take revenge, and he was stabbed by me, and he is really not wronged." ”

"What do you mean about this? Does he have a young companion in a tiger skin?"

Li Xiangqiu said, "This is a long story, if it weren't for the ingratitude of this hunter, you and I would be difficult to see each other, it can be seen that what the ancestors said is, 'Woe and blessing are relied upon, and fortune and misfortune are lurking'." On that day, we were cultivating in the palace, and suddenly felt that the southwest direction was full of demonic energy, and the disciples of the Xianmen encountered demons and evil spirits, so they naturally would not sit idly by. The tiger-skinned boy was born with divine power, and he had righteousness to protect his body, and he was against the evil spirit, and he did not fall behind, but the evil demon had a lot of external means, and after a few combinations, the young man was not an opponent after all, so I was going to kill the demon and evil spirit, but Xie Jue stopped him, and drove away the evil qi for the hunter, and stayed in the palace for a few days, and after the injury was healed, let them go down the mountain. ”

After Yang Su heard this, he felt that Huzi was very innocent, "Zhang Orion's thief nature has not changed, and he is innocent of death, that tiger-skinned boy is born upright, and he has some immortal fate, but he was poisoned by the Tianyin Sect, which is also his calamity." ”

Li Xiangqiu said, "I also saw that young man was extraordinary at the beginning, and I wanted to stay in the mountain, but his fate was not broken. Now that he has suffered this calamity, it is also the will of God, after Yang Daoyou goes down the mountain, he can be introduced to the mountain and be a doorman in my palace. ”

"That's very good. After Yang Su finished talking about Huzi, he solved a little doubt in his heart, and thought of the strange things in the mountain village, "The monster who kidnapped the child is very strange, and I have never seen the demon kidnapper and pay attention to timing, so regular." ”

Li Xiangqiu said with a smile, "I knew that things here were not so simple, and what was even more strange was that the villagers were oppressed by monsters, but they didn't want to move away, it was really suspicious, I would definitely capture the monster alive and find out about it." ”

Yang Su was relieved at this time, he was originally worried that Li Xiangqiu would kill the monster without saying a word, but it would bring trouble to the village, but now it seems that even if he can't wait for the monster to appear, Li Xiangqiu can handle the matter properly.

After everyone chattered, they prepared for each other, the two days were full moon, the villagers as usual, every family lit incense, prepared offerings, and fed the baby to their contentment, sleeping peacefully, just waiting for the monster to come and take it.
