Chapter 11: That Night
"Brother Tianxin, you're back. β
"Well, I'm back- uh, you're ......"
"Well, what's the problem?"
"No ......"
After scouting for a while, I made sure that the gang was not chasing. And went to the cliff again to investigate, although there were traces of a fight, there was no blood at the scene. Those people should have escaped from the claws of the Penglai Condor.
After settling down, Tianxin picked some fruit and returned to the foothold, but as soon as he entered the cave, he saw Lingxuan sitting by the fire and didn't know what he was cooking. Tianxin doesn't have pots and pans, but this cooking utensil - let's not talk about where it came from, why does it look so familiar?
"But it smells good. β
"Hehe, I'm pretty good at my craft. Brother Tianxin came to try it. β
"yes, then I'll give it a try. β
The utensils are also very familiar, but I can't remember what they are. Anyway, try it. Take a sip, smooth and silky, caressing the mouth and slowly flowing down the esophagus into the stomach. The fragrance can even penetrate the nostrils and act on the whole body. It's all natural, but it's no worse than the chefs in town. It's amazing!
"How?"
"Well, it's delicious!"
"Hehe, it's good that Brother Tianxin is happy. β
"But what kind of material do you make it from? β
"Materials?" Lingxuan thought for a moment and said, "I added coriander, minced garlic, lavender mushrooms, and ......"
"Hey, where did you get all this stuff?"
"I picked it. β
"You're out of the hole?"
"Hmm...... I'm sorry, Brother Tianxin. But I didn't go far, really. β
This girl, obviously being chased and killed just now, has no sense of crisis. Tianxin sighed and said, "Don't do this in the future, you know?"
"Hmm. β
"By the way, the group of people just now was probably beaten by the Penglai Divine Eagle. I've already fled, and in that case, I'll send you out of the mountain now. β
"Huh, out of the mountain?"
"yes, it's dangerous here. And your parents should be worried about you, it's not too early, don't let them worry. β
Lingxuan fell silent after hearing this, staring blankly at the firelight in front of her. Tianxin saw her bow her head and asked, "Lingxuan, are you okay?"
"Brother Tianxin. β
"Huh?"
"Do you want me to leave too?"
"Hey, no, I'm just...... You see, there are a lot of sword fighting beasts in the Shunli Great Forest, which is very dangerous. It's not appropriate for you to be alone in your girl's family, and Ling Zun must be worried about your safety...... And the time is ......."
"In other words, you want me to get out of here, Brother Tianxin. β
"No, no, no, you're mistaken. I just ......"
"I see. β
Ling Xuan immediately got up and walked outside the cave: "Brother Tianxin, thank you for saving your life today." Lingxuan will keep it in mind and say goodbye. β
"Wait, I said it was a misunderstandingβ"
Chased all the way to the outside of the cave, and as soon as he came out of the forest, a gust of wind suddenly blew. A crisp chirp was deafening.
"Chirp ββ!"
It's the Penglai Divine Eagle, and it's the one you just met!
"How did it end up here? Wait, isn't it ......?"
Tianxin immediately recalled the food he had just eaten, no wonder it was so familiar, it turned out to be the egg of Penglai Divine Eagle!
Penglai Divine Eagle eyes glowed red and rushed towards Lingxuan. Presumably knowing that Lingxuan stole its eggs.
"Lingxuan, get down!"
"Wow!"
Tianxin's eyes were fast, and Lingxuan escaped a catastrophe. But this is not a long-term solution, Penglai Divine Eagle has the strength of the fifth stage of the soul division, and with the current situation, it is nothing more than asking for a dead end. Tianxin had no choice but to hug Lingxuan and run away.
"Brother Tianxin, you are ......"
"Leave it alone, it's important to escape!"
"Chirp ββ!"
It is worthy of being chased by sword fighting beasts and running all over the mountain. Tianxin's escape speed was on par with the speed of the Penglai Divine Eagle, but soon this advantage was gone.
How do you say, people fly in the sky and you run underground, this can be played?
When their physical strength reached the limit, Tianxin and Lingxuan accidentally fell to the ground. The Penglai Condor had a chance to swoop down, a pair of sharp claws close at hand.
"Woo!"
"Huh?"
But the Penglai Condor did not attack the original target, and Tianxin protected Lingxuan at the last moment and blocked the fatal blow.
"Tianxin...... Brother?"
Tianxin was seriously injured and fell, but the Penglai Condor was not satisfied and swooped down again. When Ling Xuan saw such a scene, she was immediately furious and burst out with amazing spiritual power.
"You brute, you dare to hurt Brother Tianxin - I can't spare you!"
The burst of spiritual power shook the earth and blew over a tree. The Penglai Divine Eagle, who was still murderous just now, was rushed by this spiritual power, and turned around with his tail between his legs, and wanted to escape. Ling Xuan naturally didn't agree, the spiritual power gathered, and the sword spirit was almost the last point.
"Beast, pay the price!"
"Poof, ahem, ahemβ"
"Brother Tianxin!?"
Ling Xuan withdrew her spiritual power and hurriedly checked the situation of Tianxin. There is also the consciousness that the wound is too deep and must be cleaned and sutured as soon as possible. Penglai Divine Eagle took advantage of this gap to escape, and Lingxuan helped the injured Tianxin to hurry back to the cave.
"Brother Tianxin, you must hold on. β
That night, Tianxin seemed to have experienced nine deaths, and finally woke up after a long time.
"Uh, here's ...... Hey, why did I get back? By the way, where is Lingxuan?"
I didn't see Lingxuan in the cave, could it be that she went out again?
"This girl, it's really ......"
Slowly moving outside the cave, Tianxin searched around the forest, but still didn't find Lingxuan. Suddenly, a burst of singing came, Tianxin rushed to hear the sound, and by the small river where he often drew water, a beautiful figure stood in the center of the river. A little closer, the clouds are over the beginning of the month, shining on the whole river. When I looked closely, in the middle of the sparkling river, that person was Lingxuan.
"Don't look at indecent things, don't look at indecent things!"
Tianxin hurriedly hid behind a tree and let out a long breath.
"It turns out that Lingxuan is taking a bath, hehe, too, this day is running and running. There must be a heavy smell of sweat accumulated on the body, and it is time to wash it. But ......"
Sneaking a glance, Lingxuan's delicate figure deeply attracted Tianxin's attention.
"I didn't expect Lingxuan's figure to be so good, it's really rare - ahhhh
Tianxin shook his head vigorously, patted his face and said, "It's not right to peek, it can't be like this, it can't be like this." You have to go back soon......"
As soon as they got together, they stepped on a branch.
"I'm not that weak, am I?"
β...... Who's there?"
"Not good!"
Tianxin shouted that it was not good, and he wanted to run when he stepped forward. But as soon as he exerted force, the wound on his back suddenly cracked, and the whole person fell directly to the ground.
"Whew, I forgot...... Wound ......"
"Well, is anyone there?"
Lingxuan got dressed and came over to check, and Tianxin, who fell in the woods, startled her.
"Brother Tianxin, why are you here? Wake up, Brother Tianxin, Brother Tianxin!"
With the sound of crying, Tianxin woke up from the coma again. The first thing I saw was Lingxuan, who was crying non-stop. She cried and apologized to herself.
"Brother Tianxin, I'm sorry...... It's Lingxuan who is not good, I didn't listen to you, I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"
"Lingxuan ......"
"Brother Tianxin, you're finally awake, woo woo......"
"Don't cry, it's not good to cry, you see, I'm fine. β
"Liar, Brother Tianxin has shed a lot of blood and is so badly injured. Lingxuan was worried about dying......"
"Isn't it okay now? Okay, okay, I'm going to be angry if I cry again. β
"Hmm...... Woohoo......"
"I'm strong, this little injury, just rest. β
Tianxin touched her head and comforted. Lingxuan also gradually calmed down, and fed the boiled medicine to Tianxin little by little.
"Well, I'm really sorry, Brother Tianxin...... It's all because Lingxuan is willful......"
"It's not your fault, if you want to blame me. It was I who broke the egg of the Penglai Divine Eagle, and I deserved to be punished. β
"But ......"
"Yes, obediently, ah. β
"Woo......"
Lingxuan lowered her head in shame and said, "Brother Tianxin, in fact, I ...... It's not that I don't want to go back. β
"Well, forget it...... I don't think the guys will come back, I'll send you back another day when you've had enough, okay?"
"No!" Ling Xuan quickly vetoed, avoiding Tianxin's gaze, and said, "I'm not playful...... It's not because of those people β I'm not going back because ......"
The faint light of the fire danced in the crackling sound of the firewood. Ling Xuan slowly said the reason that was not far away.
β...... It's because my home is gone......"
