Chapter 53: A Detour
It was close to dusk when Lu Mo woke up, and Liu Shanlin told him what had happened during Lu Moqing's recovery. Lu Moqing couldn't help but ask why he woke up so late, and Liu Shanlin said proudly: Maybe this is talent.
By this time, the sun had set in the mountains to the west, and the entire plain of Yicao was dyed the red of dusk. Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing took advantage of these soft and warm rays to quickly pass through the Yicao Plain and came to this vast peach blossom forest.
The already pink peach blossoms are even more delicate under the light of the dusk light, and Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing stroll in it, lingering with the rich fragrance of peach blossoms.
Lu Moqing asked, "What kind of place is this?" ”
Liu Shanlin looked around and replied, "This is Yangchun Garden. ”
Lu Moqing asked, "How do you know, have you been here?" ”
Liu Shanlin pointed not far ahead and said, "It's written there." ”
Lu Moqing pursed his lips and looked in the direction of Liu Shanlin's finger, about fifty meters ahead, there was a pavilion. The pavilion is supported by four vermilion lacquered mahogany, covered with black tiles, and the four corners of the cornices are upturned in all directions. There is a stone table in the pavilion, and four stone benches are placed around the stone table.
Next to the pavilion stands a stone tablet of human height, which is engraved with three big characters - Yangchun Garden, the font is simple but light, and it seems that there is a burst of floral fragrance after approaching. There are also several smaller characters engraved next to Yangchun Garden: full of trees and delicate red, ten thousand branches of Dancai scorching spring. When it is a thousand years old, it will show the world to make chemicals.
The willow mountain stood in front of the stone monument, and after thinking for a while, he said: "There are hundreds of flowers in spring, there is a moon in autumn, there is a cool breeze in summer, and there is snow in winter. If the charm of the single peach may not be able to show the creation of the world. ”
As the words fell, a puff of cyan smoke rose from the stone monument, and the petals that fell on the ground around it gathered one after another.
When the smoke dissipated, a girl wearing a pink gauze skirt and two peach branches on her head fell in front of Liu Shanlin.
The girl stood on tiptoe and looked at the willow mountain forest carefully.
Liu Shanlin also bowed his head slightly, looking at the girl's playful and lovely face like a peach blossom.
When the girl saw Liu Shanlin coming up, she jumped up and raised her hand, and it was a chestnut that knocked on Liu Shanlin's head. Liu Shanlin immediately took a few steps back, rubbed his head and asked, "What are you doing!" ”
The girl turned her head and snorted coldly, "Hooligans! He looks like a human being, but his bad mind can be many miles! ”
Liu Shanlin was speechless for a while, he admitted that the girl was indeed cute, but he didn't think anything about it.
Seeing this, Lu Moqing next to him laughed.
The girl looked at him and snorted coldly again, "You are not a good thing either. ”
Lu Moqing immediately stayed where he was and said, "I'm ......."
Liu Shanlin showed a gloating appearance and said, "Let you laugh." ”
The girl jumped to the top of the pavilion and looked down at Liu Shanlin and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
Liu Shanlin replied: "We are just passing by here, and we want to go to the easternmost demon platform on the human continent. ”
The girl clasped her hands to her chest, and said in a cold voice: "What are you doing with a wood sorcerer and an earth sorcerer going to the Demon Stage?" Besides, with your cultivation, isn't it a bit too self-conscious to want to go through this Ten Thousand Demon Forest to the territory of Zongyoutai? ”
Liu Shanlin said: "We just want to go through the experience. Although the two of us have cultivated lowly, haven't we already arrived here? ”
The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked intently at Liu Shanlin. Then she jumped down from the top of the pavilion, came to Liu Shanlin's side, circled around him a few times, stopped in front of Liu Shanlin and said, "You do have a different aura on your body, even I can't see through it." But you are indeed only the cultivation of the Second Spirit Mirror, so I advise you to take a detour. ”
When Liu Shanlin was still hesitating, a powerful soul mist instantly erupted around the girl's body, and the petals that fell on the ground were suspended in mid-air. A powerful coercion emanated from the girl, and Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing retreated and crashed into the peach tree.
The girl's voice was cold: "Luck doesn't come all the time. You're lucky enough to be here with this little cultivation, and although it will take more time to bypass the Ten Thousand Demon Forest and get to the Demon Stage, you can still get there. If I don't listen to dissuasion, I won't show mercy. ”
Liu Shanlin stood firm, looked at the girl and asked, "Dare to ask what realm the girl is?" ”
The girl replied, "The middle level of the Six Spirits Realm." ”
Liu Shanlin clenched his fist, and then let go, as if there was an inexplicable anger spreading rapidly in his heart, as if he was being ridiculed by several princes in the human hall. Although he knew in his heart that the girl was for his good and didn't want him to be suspicious, the anger and unwillingness in his heart were like the fire that burned the prairie and filled his whole body in the blink of an eye.
Lu Moqing looked at Liu Shanlin and said softly, "Why don't we take a detour......
Like a straw that fueled the fire, Lu Moqing's words pierced deeply into Liu Shanlin's ears, together with the ridicule of those princes and the disdain and ridicule of Lu Yan and Lu Zhan, they wantonly tore and destroyed in Liu Shanlin's mind.
It turns out that you can't do anything.
It turns out that you are really a piece of rubbish.
Your cultivation is all due to luck and the help of the people around you, otherwise you would have fallen before you even entered the earth.
Take a detour, you won't be able to get out of this Ten Thousand Demon Forest alive.
The cultivation you obtained a hundred years ago does not belong to you, and with your talent, you can only stay in the realm of the Three Spirits for the rest of your life.
Now that the soul mist has descended on the world again, you have been beaten back to your original form.
You're a scourge, aren't you? When he was a child, he killed his father and mother, and in the future, I am afraid that even Liu Ye and Liu Chengming will not be spared. Maybe the current willow trail and willow moon pavilion are already in dire straits.
You've been hesitating between how you were born in the prime of life and how you want to be, but you forget that you don't have any choice, you're just a detour waste.
You can't reach the top of the mountain, and you can't protect anyone.
Liu Shanlin slowly lowered his head, and a large area of cyan soul mist began to emanate from his body, and they frantically drilled out of Liu Shanlin's body as if they were fleeing for their lives.
When there was not the slightest soul mist in his body, the black viscous mist spread from the various acupoints, and in the blink of an eye, the soul mist of his wood genus filled his entire body, and then slowly floated and rotated around the willow mountain forest through the flesh and skin.
Seeing this, Lu Moqing immediately shouted Liu Shanlin's name loudly, but Liu Shanlin lowered his head and did not respond.
The girl frowned, she had never seen such a terrifying soul mist, cold and full of the aura of destruction. As if pulling people into the abyss, only he stood alone in this vast space, and the darkness was like a giant beast quickly devouring him.
The black mist around Liu Shanlin became thicker and thicker, and the girl quickly approached Liu Shanlin with a light tiptoe, wanting to interrupt Liu Shanlin to continue to accumulate this strength.
The girl's body was wrapped in a layer of cyan soul mist, and her fingertips turned into peach branches, piercing straight to Liu Shanlin's shoulder.
The girl didn't feel any obstacles, and the peach branch pierced Liu Shanlin's shoulder like this, but the momentum of the black mist condensation did not decrease, on the contrary, it became more viscous and thick. When the girl was about to pull out the peach branch, she found that the peach branch had been integrated into the flesh and blood of the willow mountain forest and could not be extracted, and the black mist was quickly crawling towards the girl along the peach branch.
The girl broke off the peach branch in an instant, and her figure quickly retreated. The black mist didn't continue to chase forward, but just wrapped the peach branch, and after a while, the peach branch was swallowed up.
The girl retreated to Lu Moqing's side and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Lu Moqing said: "He was originally the Aoki Marquis of the Wooden Pavilion, and since the immortal fell into the soul mist, his cultivation fell into the valley, and the knots in his body were sealed by these black mist. As for the origin of these black fogs and the method of cracking them, even the princes do not know. ”
The girl was surprised: "He is the Aoki Hou Liushan Forest who cultivated to fall from the Wooden Pavilion?" ”
Lu Moqing nodded.
There was a little more curiosity and pity in the girl's eyes. Now no one in the world knows that the Marquis of Muge Aoki fell at the beginning of the prosperous era, and then he was dismantled from the name of the prince under the persuasion and ridicule of Mu Si and the people in the city.
It's just that they have only heard the news, and they have not really seen Liu Shanlin, and Liu Shanlin rarely appeared in front of people when he was still the Marquis of Aoki, so everyone only knows that he is dressed in green clothes, is gentle, and likes to search for magic treasures in inaccessible places.
When the girl first saw Liu Shanlin, she had a trace of suspicion, but when she thought that Liu Shanlin's cultivation had fallen to the bottom of a realm, it was impossible to come here. So she stopped guessing, thinking that she had strayed into the peach forest, and seeing that the two of them were pure-hearted, she wanted to persuade the two of them to take a detour.
But who knows, this person is that Liu Shanlin, and under his own kind persuasion, he actually became like this. The girl has a headache, how to end up now.
The black mist on Liu Shanlin's body had spread to a range of ten meters, and the surrounding peach trees were all swallowed up by the black mist.
Lu Moqing was very anxious beside him, and he couldn't get a response no matter how he called Liu Shanlin's name.
The girl was also anxious to spin in place, she couldn't get close to the willow mountain forest at all now, and the peach branches would be swallowed up as soon as they pierced into the black mist. If you force your way in, you can't hurt its vital point, and you can't stop the spread of the black fog.
So the girl anxiously shouted, "It's my fault, I'm sorry." Wake up, wake up. ”
The girl's words seemed to have an effect, and I saw Liu Shanlin slowly raise his hand and stretched out a finger to point at the girl.
Just when the girl was puzzled, a black mist surrounding Liu Shanlin's body turned into a black dragon along his arm, wrapped in a cold and destructive aura, and quickly pounced.
The girl jumped into the peach forest, opened her hands, and the soul mist surged, and the surrounding peach trees grew rapidly, and the peach blossoms gathered quickly like snow, condensing into a peach blossom pillar and colliding with the black dragon of the mist.
For a while, the petals filled the sky, and the mist black dragon gradually disintegrated in the petal rain, and then returned to the black fog beside Liushan Forest.
When the girl was about to fall to the ground, Liu Shanlin in the mist suddenly jumped up from the black fog, and a red short knife appeared in her hand at some point. A thick, viscous black mist filled his body, and he raised his short knife with both hands and slashed straight at the top of the girl's head.
The girl clasped her hands together and said softly in her mouth: Disperse. As soon as the words fell, the girl's body turned into countless peach blossom petals and scattered in all directions, and then quickly gathered together not far away.
When the girl looked over there and found that Liu Shanlin's figure had disappeared, she felt a trace of uneasiness in her heart, and the cold red blade had pierced her skin.
At this time, a purple figure came quickly from the darkness, and came to the girl's side in the blink of an eye, the long sword in his hand was not unsheathed, and a light purple sword qi surged out, shaking Liu Shanlin back a hundred meters away.
