Chapter 12: Descending the Mountain
The next morning, Dante and the others came out of the room, but the shadow walked in a rather strange way, limping, and Dante snickered.
Under the plane tree in the distance, the old man Huofeng and Wutong also turned their faces when they heard the laughter, and when they saw the appearance of the shadow, they glanced at each other and immediately turned away. It's as if you didn't see anything.
This morning, when the two of them removed the soundproof barrier, they heard bursts of coquettish voices from time to time in the room, and the two of them invariably arranged the soundproof barrier again. It wasn't long ago that the barrier was removed.
When Huo Feng saw Dante and the others walking towards them, he immediately snorted and said, "How was your rest last night!"
Hearing Huo Feng making fun of himself, Dante didn't care at all, and said, "Sleep is naturally comfortable." β
After eight years of life, I know Dante's cheekiness very well, and at this moment, even if Lianying heard about it, he just made a really cheeky expression.
"Dante. The old man Wutong said, "You've been here for eight years, how much do you know about the world here?"
Hearing Shadow's grandfather's question, Dante Zhengse said: "Grandpa, I have been on the mountain for eight years, even if I occasionally go down the mountain, I am still near here, I don't see anyone at all, and my understanding of the outside is limited to what you usually say." β
When the old man Wutong heard this, he said: "This world is actually divided into six realms, namely the human realm, the god realm, the ghost realm, the demon realm, the beast realm, and the demon realm. Let me first tell you about the human world, the nature we are in is the human world, and our human world has only one continent, and the most central and most fertile land is the Central Plains, and the outside is called the Great Wilderness, and outside the Great Wilderness is the boundless sea, and this sea is also divided into domestic and overseas. β
Dante was taken aback when he heard this, the earth has seven continents, which is known to everyone, how come there is only one continent here, hasn't the continent drifted yet?
Seeing that Dante didn't speak, the old man didn't pay attention to it, but just continued: "As for the other realms, I don't know much, and you will naturally know about it in the future. β
After Huo Feng heard this, he nodded slightly and said: "Yes, at this moment, you just need to know more about the human world, yesterday I went down the mountain to inquire about the current situation in the world, compared to what Dahong said yesterday, it is still a little worse." β
"What's going on?" asked Dante.
Huo Feng sighed and said, " Now the Central Plains, barely speaking, can be divided into five points, the east was occupied by the extravagant corpse from the east of the Great Wilderness at the beginning, and then was seriously injured by the Yan Emperor and fled back to the Great Wilderness, that place was occupied by Qiang Liang from the north of the Great Wilderness, and the south was occupied by the Black Water Snake from the south of the Great Wilderness, and the west was occupied by the enlightened beast from the west of the sea, and the north was more complicated, not only was the Yan Emperor guarded, but also the candle dragon from the north of the Great Wilderness also occupied a large place, and this last place was also the weakest one, which was the power of the Yellow Emperor in the middleγ β
Dante raised his eyebrows and said secretly: "Fortunately, I refused Dahong's request, otherwise I would be attacked on all sides, I'm afraid that even my father may not be able to handle it properly!"
But what Dante didn't know was that if the Yellow Emperor was really in the middle, how could these demon beasts dare to come to the Central Plains to be presumptuous. He had long been hiding in his nest with his tail between his legs, afraid that if something bad would reach the ears of the Yellow Emperor, he would be requisitioned by the Yellow Emperor.
"The Northern Candle Dragon didn't dare to offend Emperor Yan too much, so he didn't move for the time being, but the other three parties wouldn't be like this, the Enlightened Beast, Qiang Liang and the Black Water Snake kept encroaching on the territory of the Yellow Emperor. And those who did not have time to take refuge were almost seven or eight out of ten, and the rest became their servitude. Huo Feng continued.
Dante, who lives in the 21st century, is still very disgusted with the word slave, and at this time he can't help but waver in his heart: whether he wants to do his part for the human world.
Seeing that Dante seemed to be pondering something, Huofeng did not break it, and when he came back to his senses, he said: "Now that you have some understanding of the world, it is up to you how to do it." β
Both nodded at the same time.
This is the old man Wutong also spoke: "Dante, since I handed over my granddaughter to you, I hope you treat her well, don't let her be hurt, and don't let her be wronged a little, otherwise I won't let you go even if I die." β
Dante nodded and said firmly: "Don't worry, grandpa, I will take care of the shadow." When I come back to see you in the future, Shadow will still be fine. Maybe I'll be able to bring you a big fat boy when the time comes. β
When the old man Wutong heard the big fat boy behind him, he couldn't help but smile on his face, whether it was a tree demon or a human, as long as he was old, he was looking forward to his children and grandchildren.
When Shadow heard the big fat boy, his face turned red, and he put his hands on Dante's arm and buried his head in it, looking extremely embarrassed.
Seeing Dante laughing, the shadow actually pinched Dante's waist with his hand, and then rotated it a little clockwise, and suddenly exclaimed, Huofeng and the old man Wutong laughed even more when they saw this, even the shadow didn't seem to be shy, and giggled.
After everyone finished laughing, Huofeng suddenly said to Dante, "I will give you one more thing before you go down the mountain." β
Dan Ding Qi said: "What a good thing, hurry up and take a look." β
Huo Feng suddenly rolled his eyes and said, "You turned around and took off your clothes." β
Although Dante was a little strange about this order, he still did as he said, but after he turned around and took off his shirt, the shadow suddenly let out a coquettish cry and hid in the house, Dante was a little unsure, but the fire phoenix and the old man Wutong looked at each other when they saw this, and they didn't know what to say.
It turned out that the two of them were too crazy last night, and Ying unconsciously scratched Dante's back, and Dante was immersed in the comfort of his lower body, and he didn't feel much about the pain in his back. At this time, Dante's back scratches were criss-crossed, and he naturally had to hide when he saw it, but fortunately Dante didn't know about it, otherwise Rao was very thick-skinned, and I am afraid he would have to be a public for a while. But even if he knew, he would probably blush a little, and then he would definitely think like this: I must have dried that girl yesterday!
The scene was slightly embarrassing at the moment, and when Huo Feng saw this, he coughed twice and said, "Hold your breath and concentrate, you don't have to worry about anything." β
After speaking, a red flame burned from his body, and the flame continued to condense, and after a while, a fist-sized red bead completely condensed by flames appeared above the head of the fire phoenix, and at this time, the fire phoenix turned into the body of the fire phoenix, and actually drilled the bead like this.
At this time, Dante didn't know what Huofeng was doing, but he felt that the temperature on his back was rising, and the sweat was all over Dante's whole body in an instant.
At that moment, he seemed to feel something entering his body, and his back felt like it was about to burn from the flames. At this moment, there seemed to be an extra trick in his mind, but before he could check it, he fainted.
From the red bead, a stream of flame spewed out at Dante's back, and with each stroke of flame, the bead seemed to grow a little smaller, and when the bead was about to disappear, a trick passed into Dante's brain, and knocked him unconscious.
At this time, there were only the old man Wutong and Dante who fainted on the ground, but the fire phoenix did not know where to go. And Dante's back, at this time, has an extra palm-sized phoenix mark, but if you look closely, it is somewhat similar to the fire phoenix.
Feeling the heat wave outside the house, Ying curiously poked out his brain, just in time to see the scene of Dante fainting, and was immediately startled, and immediately rushed to Dante's face.
"Don't touch him. The old man Wutong said.
Shadow asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong with Dante?" β
The old man Wutong's face showed a lonely look for some reason, and he said after a while: "It's nothing, Huo Feng passed on a trick for him to use for self-protection, and he is comprehending it at this moment." β
Ying Qi said: "What kind of trick? Uncle Huofeng......?"
Before the three words "Where have you been?" Before he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and exclaimed: "Could it be that Uncle Huofeng passed on his fire rebirth technique?"
The old man Wutong showed a painful look on his face, nodded and said, "Yes, it is the art of rebirth from the fire." β
Shadow covered her mouth with her hands and said, "That'...... Isn't that Uncle Huofeng ....... β
The old man Wutong seemed to know what Ying was going to say, and before she could finish speaking, he said, "Don't worry, the fire phoenix is not dead, but it will have to wait for Dante to inherit it in the future...... The fire phoenix can be resurrected. It seems that the old man Wutong is afraid of something, but he skips the key point.
Ying is so smart, seeing that his grandfather is so careful, and he has contacted Dante's identity, he also guessed a point or two, and he stopped talking at the moment, just quietly waiting by Dante's side.
About an hour later, Dante gradually came to his senses, thinking that when he fainted just now, he had unknowingly learned the fire rebirth technique, and couldn't help laughing, this fire rebirth technique is like infinite rebirth, but it will have to suffer a little when being reborn, but it must be worth it compared to one more life. It didn't mean to shout at the moment, but it didn't reach him until now.
After glancing around, he asked the shadow who had been waiting beside him, "Where is the fire phoenix?"
Afraid that the shadow who wouldn't lie would talk nonsense, the old man Wutong immediately spoke: "Huofeng has gone to meditate and pranayama, and it is inconvenient to see you at this moment, if there is nothing else, you can go down the mountain." By the way, in the future, if you have time, you will go to Nanyu Mountain, don't ask why, you will know when you go. β
Ying Wenyan glanced at his grandfather and lowered his head. Grandpa told her: Hide the matter about the fire phoenix from Dante first, although Dante usually laughs, in fact, he still has a lot of feelings inside, if he knows the fire phoenix...... He will definitely hate himself in his heart, and he will inevitably have trouble when the time comes.
Dante heard that the fire phoenix was pranayama, and it was inconvenient to ask for it again, so he bowed to the bird's nest in mid-air and said, "Fire phoenix, thank you for taking care of you in the past few years, if you have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you." β
Seeing this, Ying couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Fortunately, I listened to my grandfather, if Dante knew, alas, ......." β
After Dante finished speaking, he took Shadow's hand, and after the two of them said goodbye to the old man Wutong together, they went down the mountain.
The old man Wutong looked at the backs of the two of them in the distance, and couldn't help muttering: "Old friend, now I'm the only one left." Alas!" The plane tree seemed to feel the loneliness of the old man, and actually began to fall leaves, which was said to be full of vitality Danxue Mountain, but at this time it seemed to be much older with the departure of a few people, and the plane tree on the top of the mountain was only left to talk about a few leaves.
It was just when Dante reached the foot of the mountain, in a stone chamber out of nowhere.
"Father, news has come back that the man has already descended the mountain. β
"Keep watching, be careful not to be discovered. β
"Got it. I don't know if I should send someone to prepare first?"
After a half-silence, a deep voice said, "No need. I'll let you know when it's time to do it. β
"Yes, father. β
Dante, who didn't know anything about this, happened to be next to a river next to Danxue Mountain at this time, and Dante couldn't help but say to the shadow when he saw this: "When the fire phoenix gave me the gong just now, it made me sweat, so I'll take a bath here before leaving." After speaking, he didn't wait for Ying to answer, but quickly stripped naked and jumped into the river, and suddenly the water splashed.
Ying couldn't help but say, "Be careful, I hate it." β
"Ah~"
But he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw that his clothes had somehow fallen to the ground, and that he himself had fallen into the river.
Field is a very silver word, but Dante doesn't care, he has long had this idea, but it is naturally inconvenient in the mountains, now, hum~
Ying naturally understood what Dante wanted to do, and whispered with a flushed face: "It's daytime!"
When Dante heard this, he laughed and said, "Isn't it exciting to say that Xuanyin is white?" After saying that, he was deeply united with the shadow.
At this moment, Shadow's coquettish cry made Dante stop, not that Dante thought it hurt Shadow, but that he seemed to sense that someone was watching around him, so he couldn't help but stop.
Sensing something was wrong, Shadow asked, "What's wrong?"
Dante smiled and shook his head, pressing Shadow's into the water, leaving her with only one head exposed, and although he was still twitching on Shadow's body, he concentrated all his energy and probed around.
Whether intentionally or not, Dante's hand pressed to the ground, and if you look closely, you will find that in that short moment, there seems to be a flash of yellow light.
And shortly thereafter, a muffled snort sounded on a hill far away from here. In this way, there was an additional corpse on the top of the mountain, and next to it there was a stone giant more than a foot high.
At this time, Dante relaxed and was ready to fight with the shadow, but found that he was weak at the moment.
It's no wonder that Dante just now used the summoning technique he learned from the nameless booklet, summoning creatures based on the five elements to help the master fight, and Dante just cast a stone man with the power of the earth, but he is not sure of the strength of the enemy, and this is also the first time to cast, I don't know how powerful it is, Dante called more than eighty percent of the spiritual power in his body, and at this moment he is naturally prostrated and powerless.
Seeing that Dante was weak, he thought it was because he couldn't sleep last night and fainted today, but at the moment he took the initiative to press Dante under him and prepared to take the initiative to sit on it.
When Dante saw this, he couldn't help but exclaim: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?" But at this moment, he was more concerned about who the person who was spying on him, and he shook his head at the shadow at the moment, and said, "Someone was spying on our ...... just now." β
Before he could finish speaking, Shadow exclaimed and quickly hid in the water, revealing only one head outside, crying, "You...... You....... But the last few words are indescribable.
Dante didn't expect Ying to react so violently, and secretly scolded himself for being careless at the moment, so he explained in a soft voice.
Hearing the explanation, the shadow also breathed a sigh of relief, I'm afraid that my body was not seen, and I was too careful.
After taking a shower, the two of them decided to go to the mountain to see who was actually spying on them, but when they got there, they found that there was nothing but a pile of rubble on the mountain.
Dante knew in his heart that the rubble was most likely the stone man he had summoned, and it seemed that someone had come here to take the corpse away.
After watching for a long time, there were no clues, and the two left.
