Chapter 17: The Mysterious Woman
"Blood Lingzhi?"
Zhang Xu looked at the green snake, and a hint of inquiry flashed in his eyes.
The green snake hurriedly said: "Master Dao, when I was looking for the elixir in Qingwu Mountain a few days ago, I saw the blood lingzhi on a small hillside, and I wanted to pick it, but I never thought that there was a tiger demon guarding there. ”
The tone of the green snake was very pity, and it was obvious that the temptation of the blood lingzhi was still very great for him.
"Is the elixir still there?" Zhang Xu replied.
The green snake said: "I don't know the little one, but the tiger demon seems to be just guarding the blood lingzhi, and has no intention of eating it."
"Dao Ye, in addition to the blood Lingzhi, the small one also found a lot of genius earth treasures, but they are all more dangerous, and they have not been picked, if Dao Ye likes it, you can take it."
The elixir is indeed attractive to Zhang Xu, and he also wants to see if the blood lingzhi can make people demonize.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xu asked the green snake to lead the way, while he took a long knife, dust and some talismans to Qingwu Mountain.
Qingwu Mountain is located next to Wuxiu County, out of Wuxiu County, walk 20 miles to the north, you can reach the foot of Qingwu Mountain.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Qingwu Mountain is not a high mountain, but because of the presence of monsters on this mountain, many people do not dare to go deep into the mountain, at most they only chop some firewood on the periphery of the mountain, or hunt some small animals to subsidize their families.
The green snake is a frequent visitor here, and with this little monster leading the way, Zhang Xu doesn't have to worry about getting lost.
All the way up the mountain, along the rocky path, through layers of grass and trees, during which he encountered many wild beasts, but they all fled under the deterrence of Zhang Xu.
"How long is it?"
Zhang Xu stood halfway up the mountain, looked at the verdant greenery everywhere, and then looked at the intermittent mountain road ahead, and couldn't help asking.
Not far from his feet, the green snake spit out the snake letter and said, "Dao Ye, it's almost there, it's almost there." ”
The green snake crawled fast, through the grass, over the trees, and then came to rest on top of a tall tree trunk.
The green snake's blood-red eyes looked ahead, perhaps because of its cultivation, its vision was greatly strengthened,
It said to the small hill in the distance: "Dao Master, have you seen that small hill, the blood lingzhi is behind the boulder, but there is a tiger demon guarding next to the boulder, and I only dared to watch from a distance before, and I didn't dare to approach." ”
Zhang Xu opened the eye of heaven and saw that there was a powerful demonic aura behind the boulder, which was turbid and even had a lot of evil qi.
"You stay here and don't move."
Zhang Xu admonished, then took the long knife and slowly walked towards the side of the boulder.
He took out two demon slaying talismans from his bosom, jumped onto a tall tree, climbed over several large trees, and finally stopped on a trunk.
Then, Zhang Xu also saw the tiger demon behind the boulder, and not far from the tiger demon, a palm-sized blood lingzhi grew next to the boulder.
Seeing Blood Lingzhi for the first time, Zhang Xu couldn't help but be attracted.
The blood reishi is blood-red all over, and the surface is extremely smooth, as if it is made of glass, and under the illumination of the sun, it reflects a strange blood.
"Hey, this blood lingzhi is also wrapped with a strong demonic energy, but this demonic energy is an ownerless thing, and there is some difference between it and the demonic energy of the tiger demon, and now it seems that this blood lingzhi is really a demonic monster."
Then, he looked at the tiger demon.
This tiger demon is different from what he encountered before, this tiger demon has no human characteristics, but the demonic energy on its body is not weak at all.
Zhang Xu slowly pulled out the long knife, and then prepared the demon slaying talisman, and was about to step forward to eliminate the demon.
Suddenly, something strange happened.
A red shadow descended from the sky and landed in front of the tiger demon.
Sensing the danger, the tiger demon immediately stood up to take precautions, hunched over, bared its teeth, and let out a low roar.
Zhang Xu was also slightly stunned, and then he saw the comer clearly.
Just from the back, you can see that it is a woman, with long hair and a shawl, dressed in red clothes, with a bumpy figure, slender and lovely, holding a red long sword in her hand, blocking the tiger demon.
"Who are you!" The tiger demon spoke.
The woman replied: "Tiger Demon, I think you are forced by others, give you a chance to survive, if you are caught here, I will let you become human." ”
"What! Can you make me human!? ”
Hearing the woman's words, the tiger demon suddenly became excited.
It leaned forward slightly, its expression very anthropomorphic, and it looked at the woman with a happy expression.
The woman beckoned to the tiger demon and said, "Lie on the spot and don't move." ”
The tiger demon looked a little hesitant, although the woman's words were very tempting to him, it didn't mean that the other party wasn't lying to it.
So, it shook its head and said, "I can't trust you." ”
Seeing this, the woman didn't talk nonsense, but put the long sword in front of her and said, "Since you don't believe it, there's no way." ”
When the words fell, the long sword in the woman's hand flashed red, and slashed at the tiger demon.
"Poof!"
A red sword slashed towards the tiger demon.
Where has the tiger demon seen this kind of formation, when the woman lifted the long sword, it felt threatened, and immediately wanted to flee.
But the speed of the sword was too fast, and the tiger demon only dodged the vital point, and was stood on the back by the sword mang.
"Ahh
Blood flowed directly from the back of the tiger demon, and a bloody hole several inches long appeared on its back.
Zhang Xu, who was in the distance, couldn't help but gasp when he saw this scene.
"It's amazing, is this sword qi, there is no mana fluctuation on this woman's body, it seems to be martial arts, so it seems that martial arts are not very bad." Zhang Xu's eyes stared at the woman, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.
Compared to the mana he is cultivating now, the sword qi is really handsome.
The next moment, Zhang Xu's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at the tiger demon.
Under the neck of the tiger demon, he saw a jade pendant.
He is too familiar with this jade pendant, he was in the Baoshun pawnshop at the beginning, and exchanged this jade pendant for the first pot of gold in this world.
"This tiger demon, is it the owner of Baoshun pawnshop? But why is he guarding the Blood Lingzhi here? ”
Zhang Xu tightened the long knife in his hand, and his heart was very uneasy.
On the other side, the woman stepped on the tiger demon's body, and she swiped her fingers lightly on the long sword, and suddenly her fingers flowed bright red blood.
The woman dripped blood on the wound on the back of the tiger demon, and then, a scene that shocked Zhang Xu appeared.
The wound of the tiger demon slowly healed, and the more the original huge body transformed, the more quickly the hair on the body disappeared, and the last huge tiger turned into a thin old man.
"Woohoo."
The old man was naked, his body trembled slightly, although he had become a human being, but the strength of the woman made him afraid.
The woman didn't look at him again, but came to the side of the Blood Lingzhi and pressed the blood against the Blood Lingzhi.
After the blood reishi came into contact with the blood, it instantly melted into a puddle of blood, and finally the blood quickly turned gray-white and turned into a pile of ashes.
"Who is this woman who can lift this blood lingzhi?" Zhang Xu was puzzled.
Just when Zhang Xu hesitated to remove the woman, the boulder exploded instantly.
Then, behind the boulder, a masked man jumped out, armed with a long knife, and slashed at the woman.
