This mountain range stretching for thousands of miles is divided into several sections by several countries, in the Southern Ming Dynasty is the Wugong Mountain Range where Tiegong Mountain is located, and when it reaches the boundary of Jingman and Sanmiao, it is called the Necromantic Mountain Range, just because I don't know how many innocent people die here every year, and the accumulated souls are probably tens of thousands. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sheng Xuan ran all the way into the Necronomicon Mountain, but he didn't know much about it, only because of that kind of reason he was forced to choose this remote place, a few days, the people he met along the way gradually became scarce, and today there was not even a hunter or woodcutter, he didn't care, but when this is deep in the hinterland of the mountains, it is inaccessible due to remoteness.
In the past few days, he found that the little princess seemed to be a different person, as if she was more familiar with this mountain range than herself, and what was even more strange was that she had already caught up with him several times, but she didn't mean to make a move, and he didn't care, all because the little princess was waiting for the opportunity because she had no helper.
Originally, when the little princess had no helpers and no Gu people to follow, he should have the strength to fight, and he could even kill her with a trick, but the fear of the soul Gu in the depths of his soul made him finally choose to escape, but after a few days, whenever he rested, the little princess rested, and the little princess followed closely as he advanced, and he could only let it go, hoping that the little princess could retreat and give up tracking.
On this day, he met a fat rabbit on the road, he couldn't run at all in the snow, clumsy jumping, he went up and grabbed the rabbit, and for a few days he always had dry food and water, which had made his stomach and intestines without a trace of oil and water, looking at the fat rabbit in his hand, he couldn't help but drool.
Since the little princess didn't mean to do it, he simply found a leeward place, picked up some dead branches and lit a fire to roast the rabbit on the fire, and after a while the fragrance of rabbit meat came out, Sheng Xuan broke off a hind leg full of gravy, and ate it sweetly, maybe it was the attraction of the meat, the little princess actually walked over slowly, stopped not far away and looked at him quietly, which immediately made him more vigilant, reached out and ripped off a piece of rabbit meat, and then kicked the rest of the firewood away, and then flew into the deep forest.
Sheng Xuan hid in the dense forest and quietly looked at the little princess, but found that she slowly walked to the rabbit meat that was kicked into the snow by herself, and suddenly picked up the piece of meat and gobbled it into her mouth, until the piece of meat turned into a pile of smooth bones, the little princess then walked to the side and reached out to grab a handful of snow and stuffed it in her mouth, and then picked up a handful of snow and wiped her face, at that moment Sheng Xuan found that the little princess's face was so haggard, and the helpless eyes were distressing, after all, she was only a nine-year-old child, who used to live the life of a princess, but now she is wandering alone in the wilderness, she is obviously not as lucky as Sheng Xuan, at least he also brought a lot of dry food and drinking water, and the little princess may only be able to dig some wild vegetables in the snow these days.
Suddenly, a trace of pity surged in his heart, but he was suddenly denied by himself, and scolded fiercely in his heart, "Shengxuan, Shengxuan, you are really useless, you must know that she is a terrible witch, and even almost killed herself several times, you will actually feel pity for her, she starved to death." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and continue to walk in the direction of Lone Bamboo.
Since then, the distance between the two has been kept in a place of view, Sheng Xuan also began to pay attention to the actions of the little princess, there are many beasts in the mountains, so he will fight some beasts from time to time to satisfy hunger, he lived in the mountains with Mr. Dongfang at the age of three, and then began to live independently, and when he was older, he learned to make a fire and cook, so this is not difficult for him at all, and he always roasted the game very fragrant and tender.
And the little princess gradually learned to hunt, but often baked food, but she didn't care, just swallowed it indiscriminately, and then quenched her thirst with snow water.
After walking in the forest for a few days, he has now entered the depths of the Necronomicon Mountain, but the beasts are gradually becoming scarce, and finally there is no trace of a beast anymore, Sheng Xuan has no choice but to return to the state of dry food and cold water again, and then look at the little princess, only occasionally can pick up some pine nuts to satisfy hunger.
Looking at the dry food roasted on the fire, Sheng Xuan's heart suddenly swelled with pity again, the little princess's cloak had been scratched by the branches in a few places, a trace of loneliness in the cold wind, her face was even more haggard, and she even felt that her eyes were not as bright as they were at the beginning, after he scolded himself fiercely, he opened his mouth and took a bite of the dry food, but there was no trace of taste in his mouth, and finally sighed and laughed miserably, "It seems that I still can't be a bad person." Then he broke the dry food, threaded the unbitten half with a branch, stuck it in the snow, took out a water bladder and put it aside, and then stepped aside.
Leaning on the stone, watching quietly, the little princess came over for a long time, looked at the half of the dry food and then looked at him again, but had no intention of taking it, Sheng Xuan shouted lukewarmly, "If you still want to kill me, fill your stomach first, rest assured that I won't poison the food." Then he nibbled on dry food for himself.
The little princess finally reached out and took the dry food, swallowed it in a few bites, and then opened the water bladder and drank it happily for a while, and then put the water bladder into the ring, then Sheng Xuan found out that she also had a ring, he had thought about where the little princess's jade tripod was placed, and he would not hold it in the cloak all the time, and now he finally knew the answer.
In fact, Shengxuan's drinking water is not much, but he left a bag of water for the little princess, and soon he began to regret it, because he could only rely on snow water to quench his thirst, but this was not difficult for him, when he rested on this day, he found a big stone next to him, and then dug it into the shape of a pot in a few strokes, filled it with white snow and put it on the fire and slowly burned, and waited until the snow water boiled and slowly cooled, he filled the water with several water bladders, and then put the stone pot into the ring, and then there was no need to chew the cold snow to quench his thirst.
This trick was obviously learned by the little princess, although she was not as good as Sheng Xuan's martial arts, but it was not difficult to use her mental power to control the stone to make a hole in another big stone.
In this way, the two began to maintain this strange relationship, slowly walking in the forest, Sheng Xuan is still worried about his internal strength and fighting spirit, because now he still has not recovered, I don't know why since the last time the fighting spirit dissipated, recently it has always been condensed and sometimes dissipated, although it feels that the little princess has slowly lost his killing intent to himself, but he still does not dare to stop and practice well, in case the little princess suddenly makes a move when practicing, I am afraid that he will be really dangerous.
This day, the sky gradually became gloomy, suddenly a cold wind blew, and suddenly it snowed, goose feather-like snow flakes fluttered and fell, and instantly the whole world suddenly turned gray and white, the sky was cloudy as if it was night, plus this sudden heavy snow, it was obviously not suitable to rush again, Sheng Xuan hurriedly looked around to find a place to hide from the wind and snow, but where is there to hide in this mountain? I had to temporarily continue to move forward against the wind and snow, and walked out a few miles with difficulty, I have come to the foot of a big mountain, gather my eyes to look around, and suddenly found the entrance of the black hole under the mountain, Sheng Xuan ran over in a few steps, sure enough, it is a cave, and the entrance of the cave is extremely huge, walk into it and see that it is dozens of zhang wide, and the top of the cave is also several zhang away from the ground, but it is surprisingly cold inside, and there is a faint smell of fish, although I am a little vigilant, I am afraid that there will be poisonous insects here, the hole is very deep, and he is not interested in going inside, thinking that as long as he can hide from the wind and snow at the entrance of this cave, it is good, even if the poisonous insects themselves do not enter too deep, it is estimated that they will not disturb themAfter a moment's consideration, he rushed into the wind and snow again, waving the ghost roar and chopping down a few sections of tree trunks and dragging them into the hole.
Just near the side of the stone wall, with pine branches to light a bonfire, the little princess has also walked in, but just find a place near the entrance of the cave to sit down and not close, Sheng Xuan looked at the firewood next to him to pieces, such a number obviously can not be lit overnight, so he picked up a bunch of hands and walked to the other side of the cave to light a fire, and then slowly walked back to his own fire, the little princess quietly watched his movements, and waited for him to go back for a long time before slowly approaching the fire and sitting down.
The two bonfires gradually burned, slowly making this huge cave have a trace of temperature, and the two sat quietly waiting for the snow to stop, at this time Shengxuan had already run out of dry food, and it was impossible to find prey in such weather, so it seemed that he could only starve.
Just when he was bored, he suddenly felt a slight rustling sound around him, as if something was approaching, a spirit jumped up and looked back, only to see that he didn't know when a dense group of scorpions appeared, those black scorpions with bright red tail spines were all more than a foot long, and they were eager to pounce, Sheng Xuan suddenly felt angry, but he didn't expect that his kind-hearted little princess would secretly poison him at this time, and release Gu worms to sneak attack him.
But when he looked at the little princess again, she was also surrounded by a group of scorpions, and then he realized that he had just misunderstood her, but where did so many scorpions come from?
Thousands of scorpions densely surrounded the two of them, and the scorpions on this side finally couldn't hold it, rushed up towards Shengxuan, and suddenly the rustling sound sounded, making people feel numb when they heard it, Shengxuan hurriedly dodged quickly, while waving the ghost roar with a strong wind to slash the approaching scorpions, suddenly some scorpions jumped up a few feet high and rushed towards him, he hurriedly used the ghost roar to call them out immediately, a few fell in the fire and suddenly crackled, and then smelled a fishy smell, and then looked at the little princess at this time is much more relaxed, those scorpions don't seem to be interested in her, just besieged her and did not attack。
There are scorpions falling into the fire as if to let the attacking scorpions be warned, the scorpions gradually retreated, but still refused to disperse, Sheng Xuan saw that they were afraid of fire, hurriedly threw all the remaining firewood into the fire and ignited, and then used the fire to form a circle around his body, the scorpion did not dare to attack again, he also took a breath a little.
At this moment, there was a great chaos behind the scorpion, and there was a huge hissing sound with this commotion, and the scorpion suddenly flashed on both sides with this sound, only to see several huge lizards staggering towards the entrance of the hole.
These lizards are probably four or five zhang long, the black and green skin on the body is shining with cold light, the sharp teeth in the bloody mouth are like a sharp knife, the half-zhang long tongue is swallowing back and forth, each time it brings out the smelly mucus, suddenly several lizards raised their heads at the same time and roared, and then suddenly lowered their heads and spit out a stream of mucus on the fire, the mucus sprayed with a fishy smell, Sheng Xuan hurriedly retreated to avoid the attack, but the fire was extinguished by the slime, and the hole was suddenly dark, those scorpions rushed over frantically when they saw the fire extinguished, and he had to quickly rush to the entrance of the cave。
At this moment, several monitor lizards suddenly spewed out poisonous mist from their mouths, sealing the entire entrance of the cave, obviously trying to prevent him from going out, which suddenly surprised him, he didn't expect these monsters to have wisdom.
In desperation, he had to change the dragon's teeth and fight against the tide-like scorpions to break into the cave, peeking at the little princess, but saw that she was glowing with a pale green light at this time, and as soon as those scorpions touched this light, they suddenly quieted down, and the monitor lizard seemed to be full of fear of this green light and did not attack her at all.
Sheng Xuan smiled bitterly, he didn't expect this little princess to have such skills, even poisonous insects were afraid of her, didn't they know that this was the strength of wizards, and they tamed poisonous insects for them to drive through this strange technique.
With the practice since childhood, Sheng Xuan's eyesight is still barely able to distinguish the surrounding situation in this dark cave, and the bright red tail spines of those black scorpions are slightly glowing, only to see that at this time there have been tens of thousands of scorpions rushing towards him, besieging him, and now the spear has been unable to block so many scorpions from attacking at the same time, just afraid that after a while, a flash will let the scorpion sting, he hurriedly jumped up high, and then jumped up again on the cave wall, the dragon tooth in his hand struggled to probe, ding, the dragon tooth pierced deeply into the top of the cave, and the sawtooth on it bit the rock, Sheng Xuan grabbed the gun and hung himself in the air。
At this time, I looked down again, only to see a red light surging, those black scorpions because they could not jump to this height are constantly rioting below, and their ability to climb the wall is obviously not as strong as their close relatives spiders, some of the scorpions who tried to climb the cave wall just climbed to the top of the cave and fell down one after another.
Several monitor lizards also swayed over, squirting slime from their mouths, but the top of the cave here is ten zhang away from the ground, and the mucus has not reached Shengxuan before it begins to fall, but the group of scorpions suffered from the seedlings, and they were immediately touched by the slime, and turned into an ice scorpion in a blink of an eye, Shengxuan only knew at this time that this monitor lizard would actually have a kind of water magic, similar to the effect of freezing, although it was not powerful, but it was probably not uncomfortable to be sprayed by it.
The monitor lizard angrily spewed out poisonous mist, Sheng Xuan also hurriedly threw a fireball technique, although the fireball with a diameter of several feet could not kill the monitor lizard, but a few fireballs eliminated the poisonous mist attack very well, the fireball hit the ground and splashed, and suddenly a poisonous scorpion was burned to ashes, which would cause a riot among the scorpions, and the monitor lizard could not stop roaring.
Suddenly, the scorpions below began to gather together quickly, and then stacked up layer by layer, piling up like a mound of earth, and in a blink of an eye, it was already several feet high, slowly approaching the top of the cave, this time couldn't help but surprise Sheng Xuan, he hurriedly performed the fireball technique, but the monitor lizards spewed out slime at the same time, freezing the scorpion into ice, and the scorpion next to it continued to rush up fearlessly under the drive of the monitor lizard.
In the blink of an eye, it was already several zhang high, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but get anxious, under the slime of those monitor lizards, the fireball technique had no effect, so it wouldn't take long to grow to the top of the cave, he hurried a stone falling technique, but the boulder smashed on the ice block and only knocked off a layer but did not knock it down, he hurried a star stone rain but only killed some black scorpions who had just climbed up, and then he started the same magic experiment, but neither earth magic nor fire magic could resist the footsteps of the black scorpion.
It seemed that in the end, he had to jump down and desperately break through, but at this moment, suddenly there was a strange sound in the cave again, a buzzing sound mixed with a crackling subtle sound, which made him dizzy when he heard it, and the scorpions under his feet were obviously extremely afraid of this sound, and even the monitor lizards were vigilant.
Suddenly, a gust of wind poured out of the top of the cave, followed by a loud buzzing sound, as if something was grazing beside him, and the crackling sound was even louder, which actually made the scorpions below start to riot and want to rush to the small hole next to them, some of the scorpions that were running slowly were already trembling at this time and lost the ability to move, only to see a fluorescent flash and those scorpions disappeared on the ground.
At this time, Sheng Xuan saw that it was a super-large poisonous moth, with a head half a zhang long, huge wings fanning gusts of wind in the hole, and the scales on their bodies flashed with the fluorescence of Youlan, and the two oversized giant eyes on the top of their heads were paying attention to the movement of the scorpion below, and the forelimbs couldn't stop bouncing, and suddenly a crackling sound sounded.
Every time the sound sounds, a few scorpions will suffer, and then a group of poisonous moths will rush down and take them into the air to enjoy slowly, it seems that it is this sound that makes the scorpions incapacitated, Sheng Xuan also felt dizzy when he heard it, and couldn't help but be surprised, could it be that these big moths would attack with souls?
At this time, he was surrounded by a group of poisonous moths, they kept circling around him, making him extremely nervous, fortunately, their attention was now all on the scorpion below, ignoring his existence, just at the moment when a poisonous moth swooped down and grabbed a scorpion, the monitor lizard's slime had already sprayed over, and immediately turned the moth into an ice lump, completely lost the ability to fly, and hit the stone wall with a coaxing sound of inertia, and several monitor lizards immediately ran over and tore the poisonous moth into pieces and swallowed it.
Sheng Xuan hung on the gun and looked at the excitement below, at this time the poison moth and the monitor lizard had already become a mess, but their ultimate goal was still the scorpion, it seems that although these animals have some wisdom, they are still limited.
Gradually, the scorpions completely retreated into the small hole under the stone wall, these poisonous moths were obviously unwilling to withdraw like this, they began to attack the monitor lizard frantically, because they did not have a sharp weapon to pierce the thick skin of the monitor lizard, so they chose to dive at high speed and hit the monitor lizard's head with their body, and at the same time pulled their forelimbs more loudly, Sheng Xuan suddenly felt a violent dizziness in his mind, coupled with the fishy smell in the cave, almost made him vomit, he hurriedly pulled off the dragon's teeth, dodged and ran to the entrance of the cave.
At this time, those poisonous moths are frantically besieging monitor lizards, several monitor lizards will not be able to hold on when they see it, but the poisonous moths have also paid a painful price, some unlucky poisonous moths just hit the spikes on the monitor lizard's body, and they lost their lives instantly, and some because of the collision is too positive, they suddenly hit themselves into a puddle of flesh on the top of the monitor lizard's head, but the monitor lizard has also been scarred by this crazy attack, I am afraid that it will die after a while.
The monitor lizard let out a miserable roar, and at this moment, the scorpions that had originally escaped suddenly came out, and then raised their tail thorns and ran towards the monitor lizard, one after another quickly crawled all over the body of the monitor lizard, as if the monitor lizard was wearing a poisonous scorpion armor, even if the spirit attack of the poisonous moth could paralyze them, but they always maintained this tail spine upward state, so that the impact of the poisonous moth would first hit their spikes, then their bodies, and finally the monitor lizard.
The fierce battle lasted for half an hour before it gradually subsided, and by this time the ground was full of corpses of scorpions and poisonous moths, but these were obviously insignificant to their large group, but one monitor lizard died in this battle, and several monitor lizards gathered around it, roared at its corpse, and gradually crawled into the hole after a long time.
It turns out that the three creatures in this cave have such a strange relationship, the scorpion group is large, but it is the food of the poisonous moth, in order to resist the poisonous moth they would rather be driven by the monitor lizard, and the poisonous moth will kill the monitor lizard frantically for food, so that they always maintain a delicate balance, will not let the group of either side too large.
After this battle, the scorpions obviously lost interest in Sheng Xuan, they quickly cleaned up the battlefield, almost all the poisonous moths and most of the corpses of their companions were dragged back to the cave by them, but the monitor lizard did not touch it, Sheng Xuan got a branch to light the bonfire again, and then looked at the hole, full of all kinds of slime full of a fishy smell.
He wanted to turn around and leave, but the wind and snow outside were more violent, the cold and fishy smell were obviously more pleasant, and the burning pine branches had a faint fragrance just enough to dilute the fishy smell, he had just raised the fire but suddenly saw the little princess slowly walking in from outside the cave, it turned out that as soon as the monitor lizard attacked Sheng Xuan, she quietly came to a depression near the entrance of the cave, where she could not only hide from the wind and snow, but also could see the battle in the cave, and when the battle was over, she would come back from the new.
Sheng Xuan couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable when he saw it, as if he was a clown and acted in a farce, and the only audience was his rival little princess, who didn't want to pay attention to her when she walked in, but still threw a few branches angrily.
The two sat there quietly, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but look around boredly, and suddenly the monitor lizard aroused his interest, only to see that the blood on the wound had dried up, revealing the bright red meat inside, what he was really interested in was the monitor lizard meat, I don't know how it tasted like eating?
At last the temptation of meat outweighed fear, and he stepped forward and waved the ghost roar to cut off a large piece of meat, and then set it on the fire and roasted it slowly, and after a while there was a burst of aroma, and the little princess saw it and walked over gently to take a piece of meat and bring it back to the fire.
Sheng Xuan threw away a roll of his eyes angrily, and then turned his steak by himself, and when the meat was roasted, he carefully approached and sniffed it, only to feel that the monitor lizard meat was unusually fragrant, and then carefully tore off a piece and put it in his mouth, it felt so tender, he had never eaten such delicious meat, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and chew it.
The little princess was obviously more careful than him, only to see her take out the jade tripod and then put the monitor lizard meat close to the tripod, and after a while, she took out some powder from the ring and sprinkled it on top of the meat, and then slowly roasted and eaten.
When his stomach was full, he suddenly felt a lot warmer, even the cold wind and snow outside was not as annoying as before, just as Sheng Xuan was half lying there enjoying the snow scene, he suddenly felt extremely itchy, he hurriedly came to the fire, only to see that his hands were full of scarlet blood spots, and then opened his sleeves to see, his arms were all red spots, and this kind of itchy heart, he couldn't help but scratch hard, the more he scratched, the more itchy it was, he couldn't wait to scratch his flesh and blood.
The little princess smiled miserably beside her, and then summoned the soul Gu from the jade ding, Sheng Xuan's heart was suddenly cold, and she couldn't help but scold herself, "Sheng Xuan, Sheng Xuan, let you pretend to be a good person, and give people food and water, now a good person wants to take this opportunity to clean you up, you deserve it." ”
But the little princess didn't let the soul Gu attack her, but gently summoned the soul Gu to suck at the cave, and suddenly some gray light spots slowly gathered, and then were chewed into her mouth by the soul Gu.
Sheng Xuan felt that it was better to let himself be eaten by this soul Gu, it was better than now, the little princess no longer restrained the soul Gu at this time, just let it devour it in the cave to its heart's content, and he sat next to the jade tripod and put all kinds of powder into the tripod, and then urged the mental power to suddenly the entire jade tripod lit up, and after a long time, a small pill appeared in the little princess's hand, she took out a piece of silk cloth to wrap the pill, and then waved her hand and threw it to Sheng Xuan's side.
Sheng Xuan picked up the pill and hesitated for a long time, "Could this be a poison? If you eat it, you will immediately bleed to death?" But the itch made him make up his mind, now even if he knew that it was poison, he would swallow it without hesitation, closed his eyes and threw the pill into his mouth and chewed it a few times, only to feel extremely bitter and with a faint spicy, he couldn't help but secretly think that this must be a pill, but it is better to die happily than to die of pain and torture, thinking of this ruthlessness and swallowing it with a grunt.
He lay there quietly waiting to die, but after a long time, he suddenly felt that the itching sensation gradually disappeared, and he did not have the slightest symptom of poisoning.
After nearly an hour, the itchy feeling finally disappeared completely, and he saw that the red spots on his body had all faded by the firelight, if it weren't for the scratches on his skin, he probably wouldn't remember the experience just now, it seems that what the little princess gave was indeed an antidote, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of gratitude in his heart, and his lips moved with difficulty and spit out a mosquito-like voice, "Thank you!"
The little princess didn't seem to hear it, but closed her eyes and controlled the soul Gu, and after finally devouring the last gray spot, the soul Gu returned to her with satisfaction, and when she looked at it again, she saw that the facial features on the soul Gu had gradually been revealed, and it was no longer like the original feeling of only eyes and mouth, it seemed that it was growing rapidly.
Seeing the little princess practicing, Sheng Xuan also took this opportunity to meditate there, slowly adjusting his often scattered internal strength and fighting energy, this was the first time they had stayed together in one place for such a long time, maybe this would be a good turnaround.
