Chapter 44 Shang Chaisang
He was looking out the window at the sky.
The dignified and solemn night sky, like the sea in a dream, is quiet, vast and extremely mysterious.
And tonight is something special, or rare. After many months of starry nights, the starry night sky is truly mesmerizing.
There is no moon tonight, and the starlight is very small, but it is especially dazzling in that dark night. Looking out the window, those faint starlights will give people a sense of stubbornness, like some weak creatures on land, still trying their best to bloom in the dark.
But when people are stargazing, who thinks about the credit of the night? The night is suffocating, but it sets off the stars. If there is no dark night, how can there be the starry sky that was admired by the mouths of the predecessors?
And life is just like this, if you haven't experienced some hurdles, how can you see the light that you can't see at the moment?
Perhaps from a very young age, he has learned to comfort himself in the face of adversity. If it weren't for his optimistic attitude, it is estimated that it would be difficult to live a healthy life until now.
Thinking of this, his pajamas grew thicker and he decided to get some rest.
......
......
The sun will rise on time every day, and the night sky will come as scheduled every night, and they will not change in any way because of the joys and sorrows of the world.
You can't always live in the shadows, you have to do something.
So, after Lu Beichen rested at the foot of the mountain for two days, he said goodbye to Zhang Zhi.
On Chaisang Mountain, a young man with a sword in his hand, a burden on his back, panting, and sweating profusely is moving forward step by step.
The young man who walked forward still had a lot of thoughts, thinking that Sun Moon Mountain had become a waste mountain, the master and the master had sunk to the bottom of the pool, and Gu Yin and Xiaoyan were uncertain about their life and death, and they couldn't help but sigh - things are people, and it only takes a day.
Before the poor and strange attack the mountain, Lu Beichen was worried about the situation on the mountain, and at the same time, he was also slowly watching the scenery along the way, and now when he thinks of this, his heart feels like there is an extra wall, and he regrets it very much.
He didn't dare to imagine anything anymore, so he could only move forward vigorously, and then quickly deliver the letter to the current saint to complete the task handed over by the master.
The breath on Chaisang Mountain is warm and vibrant, which naturally makes people feel refreshed and happy, but it is just a little more unfamiliar.
The terrain here is relatively flat, and the roads are all soft and soft rocks.
There is also a lake not far away. The cool breeze blows through the treetops, and the calm surface of the lake ripples, and the willow trees by the lake dance with the wind.
Looking around, almost all of them are some towering trees, each of which has lived for 10,000 years, which is very suitable for people in a hurry to rest.
Looking at these landscapes, Lu Beichen became a little quieter. He found a big tree, plucked the leaves on the ground, and rested quietly.
When night falls, the mountain is breezy and the sky is full of colorful clouds.
In the distance, a bird's cry suddenly sounded, and then there was a faint sound of water splashing. I don't know if the bird is hunting or if it's being preyed.
Lu Beichen was closing his eyes to recuperate, but he faintly heard a hint of inappropriateness.
He opened his eyes and looked into the darkness of the night, for the sound was coming from that side. It was the middle of the night, and it was the time when the mountain beasts were infested, so he had to be vigilant
"Silk ......"
"Silk ......"
A strange voice gradually approached, and Lu Beichen's hand moved consciously until it touched the familiar sword.
It turned out that a mountain snake was looking at him greedily.
That mountain snake was definitely not the kind of small snake seen on Sun Moon Mountain, but a nine-foot-tall behemoth!
It seemed to be able to travel through clouds and rain, the sky quickly darkened, endless dark clouds shrouded this forest, and the originally gentle aura suddenly became murderous.
Lu Beichen stood with his sword in his hands, and couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart. Huge lightning slashed wildly, and an unknown wind blew. The surrounding trees were swaying wildly, and even one or two were broken.
This scene is even more terrifying than the poor and strange attack on the mountain that day.
It's just a snake that has been cultivated for a hundred years, how can it be so fierce that the ancient beast is still fierce?
There were some dancing fires in the mountains and forests, and the night suddenly became as bright as day. The lightning pierced the night sky, and then the thunder began to shake people's hearts, and the dark clouds that had been rolling in the sky seemed to be crushed to the ground.
Only, the rain did not fall.
This strange celestial phenomenon seems to be manipulated by someone.
"Calm down. Lu Beichen secretly said to himself, although the python is venomous, although it has been cultivated for a hundred years, it has not yet taken on an adult form after all. That greedy gaze is nothing but hunger and thirst for days without anything to eat.
In the past, on the mountain, Lu Beichen could be said to have grown up with mountain beasts. He had seen fierce tigers, ugly ground wolves, poisonous insects, poisonous earthworms, and poisonous spiders, and he was naturally afraid, but over time he didn't feel much of it.
Thinking of this, Lu Beichen gradually calmed down, and asked cautiously, "Are you hungry?"
"Silk ...... Silk ...... "The python is also a mountain beast that has been cultivated for many years, so it can naturally understand what people say, so it snorted and responded. This long cry is right, and if it is not, the serpent's voice will have a hint of anger and urgency.
When he was a child, Lu Beichen also tried to get lost in the back mountain, where there are many mountain beasts and pythons like this. At that time, he also thought that he would eat it, but fortunately, Senior Brother Qiu Li found him in time.
Later, the senior brother told him that the nature of mountain beasts is only to eat, and if they can fill their stomachs, they will naturally be able to make them not hurt people.
"Brother Snake, as long as you don't eat me, I'll give you a big meal. Lu Beichen threw out a big herb from his baggage as if he was negotiating with someone.
The herb grows strangely, with a special aroma mixed with the round leaves. The aroma is compelling, provoking the python to gnaw hard.
When the python was far away, Lu Beichen breathed a deep sigh of relief. It seems that pythons are not so scary, and with just one ration of food, they can still be solved.
This is when Lu Beichen went down the mountain, Qiu Shan prepared the surplus grass for him, which is known as "people are not hungry for half a month", and it is really not easy to get. This was supposed to be used to satisfy Lu Beichen's hunger when he ran out of food, but Lu Beichen threw it to the snake in the mountain.
However, Lu Beichen was not worried that he would starve to death, after all, the breath on Chaisang Mountain was warm and vibrant, and there should be a lot of wild fruits.
The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the thunderous sound gradually disappeared, and everything became normal. Lu Beichen looked at the changeable weather and couldn't help but wonder, when will a mountain beast be able to alarm the heavens and the earth?
......
......
In the early morning, the morning glow fills the sky, and the glow shines brightly on the mountains and forests. There are many plants with large leaves in the forest, and the rain and dew on the leaves are crystal clear, like pearls rolling.
This gave Lu Beichen an illusion, as if he had never left Sun Moon Mountain.
On Chaisang Mountain, last night's wind blew and the clouds surged, and the trees shook and the leaves fell, which was really very different from this vigorous morning. Unexpectedly, such a calm and peaceful morning made him feel very rare.
Lu Beichen walked on the remnants of the branches and leaves, feeling the freshness of the forest, and by the way, he saw if there were any fruits that could be eaten.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and his eyes gave birth to two rays of light.
Next to the small lake that is as clear as a mirror, above the towering trees, a ribbon hangs on the branches, fluttering with the breeze, and it is particularly eye-catching in the uninhabited forest area.
Lu Beichen took a closer look, and the smell of fat powder on the ribbon came to his nose, it should be a girl's thing.
"Help, help, ......" A girl's cry suddenly appeared in mid-air, startling people.
Out of instinct, Lu Beichen followed the voice to see what was going on. In fact, he should hurry forward, but he can't seem to be so dashing.
He walked to the end of the forest and saw the big python from last night, chasing a young girl.
"Childe, save me. The girl was wearing a purple gauze skirt, and when she saw Lu Beichen, she naturally ran directly behind him, grabbed his sleeve and shouted.
When Lu Beichen saw the snake spirit, he couldn't help but feel angry, and the fear he had last night was gone. Last night he threw Zhu Yucao to the python, and when he saw how well it ate, he thought that this snake spirit was just simple-minded and wanted to forage for food for a while. But this time he has come to do evil again, which is greed and unforgivable.
Lu Beichen picked up the Sun and Moon Sword and put on a posture, ready to scare away the snake spirit.
The sword was a bit heavy, and he fell without paying attention, making a big mess in front of the snake.
"Whew......" The big python didn't seem to feel ridiculous, but was frightened by the sword aura of the Sun and Moon Sword. Its eyes widened, it let out a foul breath and screamed.
"You still have a temper!" Lu Beichen stood up and patted off the leaves on his body, "You have already eaten Zhuyu grass, don't bury your life because of greed." ”
"Silk ...... Silk ......" The python seemed to understand what Lu Beichen said, and did not make the "whoosh" sound, but stuck out his tongue and made a slight sound.
