Chapter 182: Red-faced Demon Bird
Red-faced demon bird!
Almost immediately, this thought popped into Zhao Yan's mind, he didn't think that the big bird on the treetops that would actually make the young man's heart giggle would be any other bird besides the red-faced demon bird.
This judgment had just been born in his heart, and Zhao Yan immediately subconsciously made a backhand to grab the bow, and this grasp was naturally a void.
Ever since he was forced to throw out the historical phantom of the Frozen Heavenly Pool, thus losing that powerful distinct bow, Zhao Yan had worked hard for a long time but could not find a suitable bow and arrow.
Those ordinary bows couldn't withstand his layered superimposed power and Xuanhuang Yin at all, and before they were pulled to the full bow, they would be shocked into several sections by the dark energy infused into the bow.
Without the words of Bai Lian Jin and Xuan Huang Yin, Zhao Yan originally relied on a cover that was comparable to the effect of a tactical nuclear bomb attack, so that he did not expose any problems with his archery skills, and immediately became a sad degree of shooting a ten-meter target on the archery range, and he would mistakenly hit the drummer.
After observing Zhao Yan's several archery practices, even Jiang Xinyue couldn't bear to persuade him: "Erlang, it's more appropriate for you to practice sword skills, bow skills or something...... Let's forget about it for now. β
But a habit is a habit, and it only takes seven days for a habit to develop, and it takes a long time to forget it.
It's not the same as Zhao Yan, and almost everyone else plans to use long-range weapons to attack the red-faced demon bird in the treetops - except for the Spirit Dog Demon King and Wanwan.
"Giggles, don't be bad, since I dare to appear in front of you, it means that you can't hurt me. β
The giggling sound reappeared, and the red-faced demon bird in the treetops emitted a girlish human voice.
It seems that what the red-faced demon bird said is true, and it really does not show any fear, and even combs its feathers with its vermilion beak as it speaks.
Zhao Yan looked up a little strangely, he couldn't guess why this red-faced demon bird appeared here.
Fortunately, this red-faced demon bird did not make Zhao Yan hesitate for too long.
"I know you, Zhao Yan of Daye City. The red-faced demon bird, who accurately said Zhao Yan's name, looked sideways at Zhao Yan and continued: "I know, if you want to save your brother, I can give you my blood, but ...... I have one condition. β
"As long as I can do it, I can promise you any conditions!"
Almost without any consideration, this sentence blurted out of Zhao Yan's mouth.
"You're a good storyteller, aren't you?"
The red-faced demon bird in the treetops, leaning its neck slightly.
"Yes, I'm a good storyteller. I even dare to boast about it-" Zhao Yan nodded, then raised his right hand and tapped his own temple: "In this world, no one can have more stories than I have here, and I will tell any type of story you want to know." β
"But you haven't told a story since you crossed the Boundary Stone. β
The red-faced demon bird said.
"In the past, I used to tell stories at night, but at night on Jingyun Mountain, it was the time when poisonous insects were raging, and for everyone's safety, I didn't tell stories in an open-air environment. But I guess you don't know it, but I gather up to ten people every day to tell a story in the tent where I sleep. You can ask my friends for thisβ"
Zhao Yan replied.
Just like Zhao Yan said, the environment on this side of Jingyun Mountain is really not good, during the day, those poisonous insects and beasts are still hiding in their nests because they are afraid of the light, but at night, if they dare to move outside, it is the rhythm of self-defeat.
Zhao Erlang fooled a large number of people to come to Jingyun Mountain, because he wanted to draw a circle in Jingyun Mountain and vigorously engage in the doctrine of large-scale development of the south, rather than giving people heads for the god of hunting in Jingyun Mountain.
Without the red-faced demon bird on the treetops asking, everyone has already taken the initiative to prove that Zhao Yan is not lying and deceiving people, but is really people-oriented and adapts measures to local conditions, and has changed the open-ended storytelling method before entering Jingyun Mountain.
"Tell the story of "Journey to the West"? or the story of the Tang Dynasty Shuanglong?"
The red-faced demon bird didn't say it or didn't say it didn't believe it, but continued to ask.
"Tell them all, and occasionally tell some messy little stories. β
Zhao Yan said.
"A little story?" The red-faced demon bird blinked twice, showing a very curious look: "Is there a story about birds?"
"Yes. When he said this, Zhao Yan easily remembered Aesop and Hans Christian Andersen, so he quickly added: "And a lot." β
"Is the end of the story all sad?"
The red-faced demon bird in the treetops asked again.
"You want to hear sad stories?"
Zhao Yan naturally asked a rhetorical question, he wanted to find out what this red-faced demon bird that took the initiative to appear wanted to do.
"Of course not. The red-faced demon bird on the treetops was like a human, and shook its head vigorously at Zhao Yan: "Zhao Yan of Daye City, do you have any stories with good endings?"
"Yes. β
Zhao Yan replied with this word again.
"Come with me, I know you have a very fast horse, you ride it and follow me to a place, tell a few beautiful stories, and I will give you my blood. β
The red-faced demon bird on the treetops urged.
"Yes. Zhao Yan nodded without hesitation, but the next moment he talked about the conditions: "But before leaving, I want to kill the demon tiger that turned into a corpse just now, I guess you actually know where it is hiding now, right?"
"As long as you help me find it, I'll go with you right away. β
Zhao Yan added,
The red-faced demon bird opened its mouth, as if it wanted to say what she didn't know, but before she could say what she wanted to say, a terrible tiger roar came from under the tree where she was staying.
And a twisted tiger Wu Gang also smashed the tree trunk along the road and rushed straight up, hitting the red-faced demon bird in the sawdust flying sideways.
Everyone saw that the red-faced demon bird on the treetop seemed to be caught off guard and hit by this twisted tiger-like Wu Gang, but at the moment of being hit, the red-faced demon bird actually rippled like half of the water waves blown by the breeze.
When the ripples disappeared, so did the red-faced demon bird, and the twisted tiger Wu Gang lost its target for attack, exploded and disappeared with a bang, leaving only a raging wind that made people hunt.
Almost at the same time as the Twisted Tiger Wu Gang exploded, the red-faced demon bird that had just disappeared out of thin air like a ripple had already appeared in the canopy of another tree at least 100 meters away from the explosion point.
Just now, the red-faced demon bird said that Zhao Yan and everyone couldn't catch it, but it was really not just casually talking, it really had such a magical ability.
"Brainless idiots. β
The red-faced demon bird stared at the corpse transformation demon tiger that had reappeared, and commented with hatred that iron could not become steel.
What a brainless idiot, no wonder the corpse was stolen to Jingyun Mountain, and then the soul was recalled and distorted.
"Give me death!"
The Spirit Dog Demon King roared, he had enough reason to attack the Corpse Transformation Demon Tiger, because it was probably because the brain was blasted away by the one-armed sword Ji of the water body created by Wan Wan before, the corpse Transformation Demon Tiger originally dreamed back to the same head, but now at least half of it has changed back to the appearance of a human.
It was a vicious-looking bald man, and Zhao Yan even felt that he looked a little like Chang Kaishen.
And the Spirit Dog Demon King had already recognized that he was the Tiger Zen Master he had killed once, the natural villain who was heinous in his eyes.
So ahead of everyone, the Spirit Dog Demon King roared and attacked.
This time, the Spirit Dog Demon King showed ten percent of the demon cultivation, he actually gave up the long-range attack, let Wu Gang attach to his body and turned into two wings, and stepped on the water and rushed straight to the Tiger Zen Master who thought about the corpse.
At this moment, the Spirit Dog Demon King has completely lost all the characteristics similar to humans, and he has completely recovered to the appearance that a canine creature should be, even like a fierce wolf more than a dog.
The crooked nails, sharp as knives, grew from the hands and feet of the Spirit Dog Demon King, and its mouth full of canine teeth became even sharper and longer.
Before he could rush to the corpse transformation tiger Zen master, the Spirit Dog Demon King opened his mouth and spat out a large blue egg with a large ball of light.
This thing is obviously the Neidan of the Spirit Dog Demon King.
The corpse transformation tiger Zen master couldn't react, and was actually punched through the chest by the Spirit Dog Demon King's Neidan, revealing a hole the size of a fist.
I don't know if it's the high-speed friction, or if the inner dan has a restraining effect on the zombies, and the hole in the chest of the corpse transformation tiger Zen master is punched out, as if it has been poured sulfuric acid, thick smoke comes out.
But this level of attack still can't kill the corpse Transformation Tiger Zen Master, not to mention, but also provokes the fierce nature of the Corpse Transformation Tiger Zen Master, it howls and pounces on the Spirit Dog Demon King who rushed towards him, and then the two of them scuffle together with the most primitive minions.
The scuffle was so inseparable that even the one-armed sword girl of the water body that Wanwan created again could only circle around the two sides that twisted, and could not find any suitable angle to assist.
So Zhao Yan, who was originally going to make a move, wisely chose to give up after observing for a while.
But it wasn't an ordinary level scuffle after all, the mutual minions of the Spirit Dog Demon King and the Tiger Zen Master soon created a turbulent wave like a typhoon crossing this water surface that had just returned to calm.
In order to prevent the boat from capsizing, the White Queen, who was driving the boat, had to move the boat out of the boat for a long distance.
One tree after another was broken, and the already injured corpse turned into a tiger Zen master, and finally couldn't stand under the attack of the Spirit Dog Demon King, so it gave up an arm in a desperate struggle and once again sacrificed a way to escape into the trees.
It's a pity that the Tiger Zen Master who has a monstrous hatred for the corpse transformation Tiger Zen Master, and even transfers part of his hatred for the Wei Ling God to the Mighty Spirit, does not intend to let go of the corpse Transformation Tiger Zen Master.
"Give it to meβcome out !!"
In the midst of the loud shouts, the Spirit Dog Demon King forcibly put a front paw into the big tree where the Corpse Transformation Tiger Zen Master was hiding, and dragged it out of the tree again!
The Tiger Zen Master sent out another desperate blow to the Tiger Wu Gang, hitting the almost distorted face of the Spirit Dog Demon King at close range, and the Tiger Phantom was scratching and biting, and the Spirit Dog Demon King's already scarred face was blurred by a piece of flesh and blood.
But the Spirit Dog Demon King didn't care about it, and actually opened his bloody mouth and bit the neck of the corpse transformation tiger Zen master!
In the dull roar, the limbs of the Spirit Dog Demon King and the mouth that was biting the neck of the corpse-transformed tiger Zen master exerted their strength together, and they actually forcibly bit the neck of the corpse-transformed tiger Zen master, completely biting it into two sections!
With a hard shake of his head, the Spirit Dog Demon King threw the Tiger Phantom on his head and the head of the Tiger Zen Master out together.
The one-armed sword girl who had been cruising the nearby water body rotated slightly, turned sideways and handed out the blade, and the vibrating blade shattered the tiger phantom, and then passed the brain-opening head of the corpse-transformed tiger Zen master on the sword, just like ...... A spoiled and rotten sugar gourd was skewered.
Beside him, the Spirit Dog Demon King's offensive did not end because he had already beheaded the corpse transformation tiger Zen master, he continued to attack the corpse transformation tiger Zen master's headless body, tearing the remaining three limbs of his limbs one by one.
Zhao Yan carried the Eight Desolations Exorcision Sword, and used Tiyun to go to the Spirit Dog Demon King, and chose a tree that was lying in the water and rose and fell with the water waves as a foothold.
"Okay, Demon King, even if this guy has undergone a corpse transformation, but now it is dead and can no longer die. β
After confirming that it was completely impossible for the corpse transformation tiger Zen Master to move again, Zhao Yan finally opened his mouth and persuaded him.
The Spirit Dog Demon King raised his head and stared at Zhao Yan with two blood-red eyes, which made Zhao Yan subconsciously give birth to the illusion of being stared at by a hungry wolf.
"He's already dead and can't die anymore, and I guess you know that I'm better suited than you to deal with this kind of corpse, and he'll turn to ashes in the flames I made, and then dust to dust. β
Zhao Yan's gaze did not dodge, but continued to say to the Spirit Dog Demon King very calmly.
"It's gone, and you still have a young son, and it's called lucky. β
Zhao Yan continued.
The crazy fierce light in the eyes of the Dog Demon King faded little by little under Zhao Yan's gaze, and finally disappeared completely.
"This rotten meat is yours. β
The Demon King of the Spirit Dog spoke again, he shook his bloody head, and without looking back, he stepped on the floating wood everywhere on the water, and returned to the small wooden boat.
The White Queen quickly propped up the small wooden boat to the vicinity of Zhao Yan's location, and assisted Zhao Yan in transferring the minced flesh of the corpse-transformed Tiger Zen Master who had been completely torn to the spare canoe towed by the small wooden boat, including the open-minded head.
......
"Zhao Yan of Daye City, it's time for you to fulfill your promise. β
When the corpse turned into the stinky flesh and blood of the Tiger Zen Master, turned into ashes in the flames, and the ashes were bombarded by the Tiger Step Fist of the Zhigang Zhiyang, and turned into ashes in the sky, the red-faced demon bird that had never left reminded Zhao Yan again on the high treetops.
"Let's go back to Jiankang City first, wait for me to come back, I believe it shouldn't make you wait too long. β
Zhao Yan said goodbye to everyone.
"Erlang, this may be a trap, even if we don't get the Demon Tiger Neidan, the solution to the problem will appear sooner or later, isn't it?"
Jiang Xinyue persuaded that she was trying to block Zhao Yan's way and prevent Zhao Yan from being alone in unknowable danger.
"Yes, Zhao Gongzi, sooner or later, there will be a way, there are so many genius earth treasures at this time, maybe we will soon be able to find other combined medicinal materials that can treat the damaged martial veins. β
Wanwan also said.
"I really appreciate your care and love for me, but this is a matter of the principle of the lower limit of joint exercises, so ...... Please forgive me for being willful. β
Zhao Yan shook his head firmly.
After speaking, Zhao Yan jumped on the back of Princess Chilong, and then attached himself to Jiang Xinyue and Wanwan, showing an apologetic smile.
It is the most difficult to accept the grace of beauties, the ancients, sincerity does not deceive me.
"Doctor Jiang Xiao, Miss Fan, we have an old proverb that says that a woman's tenderness can never stop a true warrior from going on a journey, so instead of sorrow and hindrance, it is better to expect him to return with a full load. β
The White Queen, who could have stayed out of the matter, took the initiative to say such a sentence at this time.
"Yan Shao, Lord Pacification Envoy, the Lingxi Department is grateful for your kindness, and the Lingxi Department will prepare the best wine, the fattest pieces of meat, and the most beautiful girls, waiting for you to return victorious. β
The White Queen bowed to Zhao Yan, who was riding the Red Dragon Princess, solemnly like the most virtuous and courteous wife, bidding farewell to her husband who was about to go on an expedition.
"Bless the God of Hunting, long live the Great Chief Zhao from Daye City!"
Under the arrangement of the White Queen, among the people of the Lingxi tribe who came to watch the burning of the demon tiger's corpse up close, someone suddenly shouted loudly.
"Blessed by the god of hunting!"
"Long live the Great Chief Zhao from Daye City!
The people of the Lingxi tribe kept cheering, they didn't have the concept of pacification in their minds, they only knew that Zhao Yan was a bigger chief and head than the White Queen, and he had just arrived to help them get rid of the man-eating demon tiger that had plagued them for a long time.
"What are they cheering for?"
Zhao Yan still couldn't understand the language of the Jingyun Mountain barbarians.
"They are sending you off and praying to the god of Shiga to bless you. β
The White Queen made a brief translation with her head and tail removed.
Pray for the blessing of the god of hunting?
Oh, if that hunting god really exists, then how can you devout followers never show up when you are suffering and being eaten by trolls and tigers one by one?
Zhao Yan looked around at the crowd of farewells, although he was not interested in the god of hunting or anything, but he could still see the sincere blessings on the faces of those people.
So Zhao Yan raised his hand and waved it towards the people of the Lingxi tribe who were cheering for him.
The cheers became even more intense.
"Please get out of the way, Sister Xinyue, I promise - I will return with a full load as everyone has blessed me. β
Zhao Yan said to Jiang Xinyue again.
This time, Jiang Xinyue did not continue to block, but finally silently got out of the way.
Puff -
The red-faced demon bird, which had been waiting for too long, spread its wings of almost one and a half meters, and after flapping its wings for a while with a little clumsiness, it finally flew to a height where it could glide, and then circled and climbed by the updraft, and finally accelerated towards the direction of the deepest part of Jingyun Mountain.
The Red Dragon Princess looked up at the sky, and then did not hesitate to throw off her four hooves and chase after it, the criss-crossing waterways of the Lingxi Department could not stop the Red Dragon Princess's gallop at all, it even seemed to be under magic, stepping on the water and rushing wildly, leaving only the misty water vapor splashing all the way.
The people of the Lingxi tribe let out a gasp, they had never seen such a divine horse, and in their concept, the criss-crossing waterways that protected them were the most natural nemesis of all cavalry.
But now it seems that the inherent concepts of the people of the Lingxi tribe are obviously wrong, and they are very wrong.
And in the sound of gasping, Zhao Yan, who was riding the incomparable Red Dragon Princess, had disappeared from the field of vision of the people of the Lingxi Tribe, leaving only a deep memory in their hearts that will never be forgotten.
Wanwan withdrew her gaze from afar, and subconsciously tilted her head slightly, she saw that Jiang Xinyue, who had also just finished looking at the distance, also looked at her with the same action.
There are some things that Wanwan has never explained to Jiang Xinyue, because she doesn't know how to explain them.
So Wanwan's gaze dodged slightly.
Jiang Xinyue was different, she just nodded towards Wanwan, and then smiled reluctantly.
"It's fine. Jiang Xinyue said to Wanwan: "Erlang's body carries a lot of medicines that I have refined, whether it is detoxification or life-saving, so ...... It's okay. β
Although the object of the speech is Wanwan, even if it is Wanwan as the object, it can be concluded that Jiang Xinyue is actually more like self-comfort.
This made Wanwan's heart soften, so she grabbed Jiang Xinyue's arm and held Jiang Xinyue's hand tightly.
Jiang Xinyue felt the slight warmth of Wanwan's palm, and Wanwan ...... The same is true.
And Zhao Yan, who was full of care, had already flipped through the low mountain with four streams in the sphere of influence of the Lingxi Department under the bearing of Princess Chilong.
The soaring red-faced demon bird continued to soar towards the deepest part of Jingyun Mountain, spreading its wings.
So one river after another, one mountain peak after another, was conquered by the four hooves of the Red Dragon Princess, and Zhao Yan even saw some unheard of and unseen beasts, which roared and chased because of the intrusion of the territory, and then was thrown farther and farther away by the Red Dragon Princess, who was too fast.
At least in terms of speed, among the animals on land, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone to catch up with the Red Dragon Princess.
can chase the red-faced demon bird soaring in the sky, but the red dragon princess ran sleeplessly for one night and two days in a row.
When the remnant sun, which was as red as blood, fell towards the back of the mountains again little by little, Zhao Yan had already come to the core of Jingyun Mountain, and the center of the most filled with fierce beasts and monsters.
Here, just like Zhao Yan once saw, the map of the thirty-six states in the south collected by Jiang Xinyue, there are black lone peaks like dogs and demons everywhere.
The red-faced demon bird, which had also been flying sleepless for a night and two days, finally circled and flew towards a lonely peak, which was halfway up the mountain covered with various plants, and there was a small windbreaker that normal humans could almost only enter sideways.
"It's here. Landing on the top of a pine tree outside the gap, the red-faced demon bird gave instructions with its wings: "You can rest a little at the entrance of the cave, we can rest a little and then go into the cave." β
"If I am presumptuous, can I know who the person who needs to see me is?"
Zhao Yan asked.
"I don't have to answer you, because you'll find out soon. β
The red-faced demon bird that is combing its feathers with its beak, said hard.
It can be heard that the red-faced demon bird's current mood does not seem to be too good. rs
