Chapter 3 A kitten
Li Xiaohei went down the mountain.
Although he was only nine years old, Li Xiaohei was far from being as clumsy as ordinary children, he was dexterous, and he was moving quickly in the dense forest, and the dead trees and old vines could not slow down his progress at all.
When he was about to leave the dense forest, Li Xiaohei began to be able to faintly smell the smoke in the air around him, and then the ground began to show traces of battle. Further on, corpses appeared.
Looking at the costumes of those corpses, some of them were from the Changfeng Sword Sect near the town, and some of them were more ornately dressed, and they seemed to be from more advanced sects. But they all died in a similar way, either they were charred by fire, or their blood was drained.
"That's not a good sign. Li Xiaohei muttered to himself. "It seems that these people should be besieging the big red worm, but they let the big red worm kill it. Should I change my path, I always feel so dangerous in front of me, and I'm so panicked. ”
Li Xiaohei said, but there was still a smile on his face, without the slightest pause.
"I don't know what this big red worm looks like, big worm, big worm, is it a big bug that can breathe fire?" Li Xiaohei said as he ran forward.
I don't know how long it took, there was a sound of whirring and shouting in front of me, and then more than a dozen swordsmen rushed out and surrounded Li Xiaohei in the center. Looking at the costumes, the few people led by them were gorgeously dressed, and they should be members of the Great Gate Sect, while the few on the periphery were from the Changfeng Sword Sect.
"Boy, whose subordinate are you? Could it be that you are also here to fight for the Red Flame Blood Roar?" the middle-aged man at the head frowned and asked.
This middle-aged man's strength should already be in the middle stage of condensation, and his whole body was full of spiritual energy, and the surrounding grass and trees even trembled with his breathing.
"Ahem, old man, do you really think a nine-year-old kid can compete with you for something?" Li Xiaohei asked rhetorically with a black line on his face.
The middle-aged man at the head had a dark face, yes, this was indeed a nine-year-old child in front of him. It's not that there is no kind of master in this world who can be disguised, but if a master can disguise himself as a nine-year-old child, then the strength must be above the Sword Master, with this kind of strength, do you still use nonsense?
"Where are you from, kid, what are you running around on this mountain?" a young man beside the middle-aged man immediately shouted when he saw that the middle-aged man's face was wrong.
"Back to this uncle, I am a resident of the town under the mountain, and my family runs the town's winery, and this time I went up the mountain to ask the monkey demons on the mountain if the monkey wine was brewed. Li Xiaohei said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Monkey wine!"
The eyes of the surrounding group of swordsmen suddenly lit up.
As cultivators increase their cultivation, their requirements for food will become lower and lower, but only alcohol is an exception, not only because alcohol can help their cultivation, but more importantly, although their cultivation deepens, their sense of taste will become weaker and weaker, and only alcohol can leave a taste in their mouths.
Therefore, many masters, most of them are drunkards, and many monks will even fight for a good jar of wine. And if a jar of good wine was at the same time a jar of fine medicinal wine, it would be enough to drive all the monks crazy.
Monkey wine, in the ears of the monks, is no less famous than some well-known wines. Most of those well-known good wines are controlled by some big families, and monkey wine is even rarer than those well-known good wines, after all, monkey demons don't like to deal with humans. Moreover, the cultivation of monkey demons will also rely on the power of alcohol.
Rather slaughter a thousand Jiaotou than provoke a monkey demon. Although these words are very exaggerated, they also reflect the difficulty of the monkey demon from the side.
But now, such a small town kid actually said that he ran to the monkey demon to ask about monkey wine.
"So, do you have monkey wine?" the middle-aged man lowered, lowering his voice to make himself look less threatening, after all, he was coaxing the child.
"Yes, I have them in my liquor store, but there are not many, only two jars. Li Xiaohei said.
The middle-aged man nodded, and then glanced at a few people from the Changfeng Sword Sect beside him.
A man immediately walked over and whispered: "My lord, although this kid is young, he is a good hand at making wine, and my master's wine is provided by him! ”
Hearing the man say this, the middle-aged man was relieved. He secretly wrote down in his heart that he planned to buy the two jars of wine as soon as he returned, keep one jar for himself, and dedicate the other jar to his master. Master must also be grateful for His dedication—even though it's just a small thing, big things are made up of small things, aren't they?
"It's very dangerous in this mountain forest, so go down the mountain quickly. Remember, I'll keep those two jars of monkey wine. The middle-aged man said.
"Two altars?" Li Xiaohei looked embarrassed.
"What?" the middle-aged man frowned.
"My monkey wine is specially brewed by me, and it is very beneficial to the monk's practice, and I sell it by the cup, and if you buy it in a jar, it is very valuable!" Li Xiaohei said.
"Hahahahahaha! expensive?" Before the middle-aged man could speak, several young people around him burst out laughing.
"Forget it, I don't blame you, anyway, you just keep it for me!" The middle-aged man waved his hand and motioned for Li Xiaohei to leave.
Li Xiaohei walked slowly past everyone, but it didn't take long.
Behind him, he suddenly heard a loud shout, "Stop!" Then a terrifying suction pulled him with his feet off the ground, and then fell heavily to the ground, fortunately, the ground was full of dead leaves, Li Xiaohei didn't fall too painfully, but it also scared him.
"Hey, it's not appropriate for a few adults to bully children like this. Li Xiaohei sat on the ground, half of his body crossed, and rubbed his ass vigorously.
"What's in your backpack?" The middle-aged man who was still pleasant before pointed to Li Xiaohei's backpack and asked, his face solemn.
Before Li Xiaohei entered the mountain, he prepared some food and deworming herbs in his backpack, which should theoretically be nothing.
"Nothing.
Li Xiaohei took off the rucksack, but when he brought the rucksack to his eyes, he found that a red tail peeked out of the gap in the rucksack.
Li Xiaohei's heart moved, but there was no superfluous action on the surface.
"This?"
Li Xiaohei opened the rucksack, but saw that there was a gray kitten lying on his stomach in the rucksack, the kitten was sparsely furious, and there seemed to be some small wounds on his body that had just healed. Strangely, although the body is gray, the tail is red.
"Oh, this one. This is a kitten I picked up outside my liquor store in the town before I came up the hill, and I couldn't get rid of it, and I had been lying near my liquor store for a few days. The people in the town said that the cat was too ugly and unlucky, so I planned to throw it into the woods today, and I forgot about it if you didn't say it. Li Xiaohei said, grabbing the kitten out of the rucksack and grabbing the skin on the back of the neck.
Almost at the same time, an old, low, and hurried voice sounded from Li Xiaohei's head.
"Child, this king is the red flame blood roar, I know that you are a friend of the old monkey, and I also know that you have always treated my demon clan equally, if you help this king get out of trouble today, this king will be grateful!"
Obviously, this kitten is the red flame blood roar, although I don't know how he ran into his backpack without a sound, obviously this trouble has found the door.
Although Li Xiaohei heard this, he still quietly threw the kitten to the ground.
"Well, kitten, I know you've been a big drinker lately, but you've been in my liquor shop all day, and the guests are very upset. So, you honestly eat this mouse. ”
Throwing the kitten to the ground, Li Xiaohei put away his bags and was about to leave.
But the kitten staggered to Li Xiaohei's feet and climbed up from Li Xiaohei's trouser legs, as if he was really drunk.
"I said, little guy, you are also a little wild cat, you can't always follow me like this, as a cat, it's not right for you to always steal my wine. ”
As he spoke, Li Xiaohei took the kitten off his trouser leg and came to the middle-aged man.
"Otherwise, for you, this kitten drank some of my medicinal wine, and there is some red fruit wine in my medicinal wine, which is what the monkeys gave me, fire attribute, you see that his tail has turned red, maybe he can become a good demon beast in the future, I wish you a helping hand." Li Xiaohei handed the kitten over like a treasure.
The swordsmen looked at each other, they had indeed overreacted a little just now. When I saw a red tail, I thought it was the big worm, but now it's just a kitten. Although these demon beasts can be ever-changing, but after all, I Chiyan Blood Roar is the former king, and that strength and evil aura can never be concealed.
The kitten in front of him had a faint demonic aura, but this demonic aura was only a little more than that of ordinary beasts.
Therefore, this kitten should not be the red flame blood roar.
"Hehe, it's just a kitten, it's still too early to become a cat demon, so you should keep the mouse by yourself. The middle-aged man said with a smile.
Li Xiaohei didn't care so much, threw the kitten on the ground, turned around and ran, and shouted loudly while running: "Don't follow me!"
As if he hadn't woken up yet, the kitten meowed a few times in the dead leaves all over the ground, and then chased after him crookedly.
It wasn't until Li Xiaohei and the kitten disappeared that everyone retracted their gaze.
"That big worm has already reached the end of its life, and it was seriously injured by the sage before, and many sects already know that the big worm is hiding here, so you must not let your guard down. It is best if it can be captured alive, and if it cannot be captured, its corpse must be brought back!" the middle-aged man commanded.
"Yes, Elder!" the crowd responded.
