August is late, and autumn is getting stronger.

On the path of the Sifang Mountain in Chishui City, a thin layer of yellow leaves has accumulated. Three or two insect chirps, a small gust of wind groaned, and there were no people on the mountain, only a young man holding a scroll.

Xing Xie read the book very carefully, and compared to when he had just left the village, most of the yellowed old book had already been turned.

Since it is an old book, of course, it records some things from the past. For example, the ancient sages were able to govern the world and do things, and there are also many classic stories that comment on filial piety, loyalty, faithfulness, courtesy, righteousness, honesty, and shame. These ideological invocations are obscure and difficult to understand, which is enough for the old scholars of the Imperial Capital Tai Academy to study for a long time, and ordinary people are even more like reading heavenly books, and they don't know why Xing Xie reads them so fascinatingly.

Reading a lot of books has always been the biggest specialty of the Star Evil, and it is also the biggest shortcoming of the Star Evil.

Suddenly, there was a thud above Star Evil's head, and a black shadow swept through Star Evil's line of sight from top to bottom.

Immediately after, Xing Xie felt that his hand sank, and there was a small snow-white hairball on the thick book.

Xing Xie looked at the palm-sized hairball in front of him, a little surprised, he had already stepped into the realm of the Ming Dao, he was extremely sensitive to the perception of his surroundings, and he should have noticed it a long time ago for a little guy who fell from a tree like this.

The snow-white furball rolled around the book, then stretched out its body, and its two long ears bounced up, and it was a small white rabbit. The white rabbit blinked his round eyes, and also looked up at the star evil, and he actually had a feeling of looking.

There was a familiar aura on this white rabbit, which reminded Xingyi of another rabbit he had seen, the uncle who was still torturing ants in the yard at this time.

"How did you fall from the tree?" said to himself, reaching out and gently caressing the white rabbit's soft, warm back.

The white rabbit seemed to understand the words of the star evil, and its big black eyes glowed with a layer of water, as if it had been greatly wronged, it slowly moved its body, buried its little head in the arms of the star evil, and rubbed it.

This time, on the contrary, the star evil doesn't know what to do.

"Let's take you to Uncle Shi, it's also a rabbit, and it should know how to help you. Xing Xie scratched the back of his head, looked down at the white rabbit that had already burrowed into his arms, and tied the book around his waist with some helplessness, thinking that he didn't know what year and month he would be able to finish reading this book.

Approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is in the mountains and forests, and the mountain breeze carries the coolness of Xiao Suo, so that the little guy in the arms of the star evil beats one or two spirits from time to time. Xingevil felt pity and tied his clothes tightly so that the cold wind would not pour in too much.

Silent all the way, one man and one beast, stepping on fallen leaves, walking on the mountainside.

Before the road was halfway through, the wind in the mountains became stronger and stronger, and the yellow leaves on the ground were blown up, rolling up countless sand and dust, and people couldn't open their eyes. Xingevil protected the white rabbit in his arms, adjusted his breathing slightly, and a soft white halo rose from him, the light was warm and solid, allowing Xingevil to stabilize his body in the wind.

So he took another step.

It seemed that the action of the Star Evil provoked the gale, and as soon as he took a step forward, the energy of the entire heaven and earth became violent and chaotic, and the gale was wrapped in layers of energy tides rushing in, instantly smashing the layer of light on his body.

It's not the wind in the mountains

The wind is damp and salty, coming from thousands of miles away.

This wind is the wind of the sea.

The Star Evil somewhat understood, the mountain vision suddenly appeared, and he was probably trapped here by a cultivator, judging from the cultivator's methods, his strength was far above the Star Evil. Since you can't move, you can't move. Xingevil stretched out his hands to cover the wind and sand for the white rabbit in his arms, and looked calmly ahead.

"Young man, he has good courage, he is calm, and he is very smart. ”

The wind stopped, and the violent energy between heaven and earth slowly stabilized, and a tall thin man wearing a hat appeared on the path in the forest, the man couldn't see his face clearly, and there was an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xingxie's long hair was messy by the previous strong wind, and his clothes were covered with dead branches and leaves and thick dust, and he looked embarrassed at this time, like a ronin who had been sleeping in the open for months, but his eyes were clean and warm without a trace of impurities.

The star demon saluted the man and said, "Since you asked me to stop, I guess there must be something to tell me." ”

"You're really smart. The man nodded, then reached out and pointed to the star evil's arms, "That rabbit, I've been tracking for a long time, give it to me. ”

Xingyi glanced at the white rabbit in his arms, and the white rabbit obviously understood the man's words, and it clumped its body into a ball, poked out two furry forefeet, and clung to Xingxie's clothes, its big round eyes full of horror.

Xingevil sighed and asked, "Is it your pet?"

"No, it's my prey. ”

"Can I replace it with something? You see, it's scared too. ”

"You are a smart person, and you should know that it is already a great favor to you that I have patiently talked to you so much while standing here, instead of snatching it away. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, and because of that, I would like to try to convince you again. ”

"Young man, you are too self-righteous, I count three times and give it to me, or I will take your life and take it away again. The man's face darkened, and he stood with his hands in his hands, staring coldly at the Star Evil. Xing Xie felt the overwhelming feeling of oppression from the man, his face turned a little pale, his breathing began to be not smooth, and even the energy flow in his body was condensed, and he was squeezed out of his body little by little. What a realm cultivator this is, just looking at him, he is about to suffocate the star evil.

"Three. ”

"II. ”

"One. ”

The man's voice was not loud, but every time it was like a death knell, striking on Xingxie's heart, Xingxie's body swayed under this huge pressure, but his hand was still very steady protecting the white rabbit in his arms.

With his actions, the Star Evil showed his attitude. Maybe it's an egg-on-the-stone, but it still needs to be tried.

"Although in order to avoid attracting unnecessary attention from the Sunset Empire, I have restrained my strength to the lower realm of Shangxian, but you, a kid from the middle realm of the Ming Dao, are worthy of praise for having such perseverance. But it's a pity, it can only end here, "The man stepped forward, step by step towards the star evil, the pace was steady, not slow or hurried. Star Demon wanted to move, but found that he couldn't move at all under the man's gaze.

It's not what kind of ability the man has exerted, it's the realm is too different, and the strength is essentially crushing.

The man came to the front of the star evil, raised his hand, and waved it down at the star evil seemingly casually, and the star evil's gaze changed from calm to firm.

Star Demon held his breath and condensed, extracting the little energy left in his body, and at that moment, his body burst out with a dazzling light. The blazing heat of the white mangs ignited the air, forming a layer of blue aura on the surface of the star demon's body. He turned himself into a furnace to carry a man's blow.

"Fireflies. The man snorted coldly, and the speed of his hand did not decrease, like a heavy hammer smashing on the glass, the white light on Xingxie's body fell apart, and the whole person flew out upside down, rubbing a trace of dozens of feet on the ground, bringing up a puff of smoke and dust.

As soon as he landed, the man had already arrived in front of the Star Demon, and he stretched out a hand to lock the Star Demon's throat and pick him up.

"After all, it is the bloodline of the mortal world, although there is some talent, if you kill it, you can kill it. The man's hand was strengthened, and the consciousness of the star evil began to blur under this huge force, and it was already pitch black in front of him. He vaguely felt the warmth in his arms, and subconsciously hugged the white rabbit tighter.

Maybe it's because his life is coming to an end, and the star evil thinks that he actually gave away his life because of a rabbit, and he also feels puzzled and strange, and he wants to laugh a little.

Probably because this rabbit is too human-like.

Sorry, I've tried my best......

As time passed, the star demon could no longer feel the pain in his body, he could no longer feel the torture of suffocation, and he felt that he was fluttering, like a feather, flying towards the sky.

However, there was a heavy, warm force that grabbed him and dragged him back to the ground.

The sharp pain in his chest, the fishy sweetness in his mouth and nose, and the earthy smell of the air, all came back in an instant, and the star demon regained consciousness, and he opened his eyes with difficulty, and found himself lying on the ground, the tall and thin man far away from him, looking at his side with a wary face.

Then the star demon also looked at him, it was a pair of feet wearing straw sandals made of hemp rope, with some delicate grass on the feet, and a few small golden flowers stuck to the soles of the shoes. The flower is nasturtium, which only blooms in the grassland, so this foot comes from the grassland. There are a few green tendons on the instep, and the skin is slightly wrinkled, so this is an old man's foot.

Xingxie was very happy, he wanted to laugh, but the sharp pain in his chest and abdomen made him cough, spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, he got up from the ground with great difficulty, regardless of the scars all over his body, and saluted the old man meticulously: "Teacher, you are here." ”

The old man with white hair was tall, much taller than the tall and thin man, and the old man looked at the star evil, his black eyes were like an unpredictable night sky, interpreting the change of the stars and the annihilation of time and space.

"For the sake of a rabbit, make this look like this, this kind of thing is done by you nerd all the time. The old man frowned, raised his hand and stroked a few dead leaves on the shoulder of the star demon, a little displeased, very distressed. Then he looked at the man in the distance, and said slowly: "It is worthy of the bloodline of the Ocean Taki, and he is still virtuous at a young age, although he has some talent, he will kill it." ”
