Volume 9: Why Do You Want the Sword Chapter 138: The Beast Returns the Favor

The aura on the beast's body was extremely domineering, so that Situ Yunmeng couldn't move at all, and when all thoughts were lost, she was shocked to feel a cool and sticky feeling coming from her feet, she closed her eyes and frowned, and said in her heart: "Oh no, it's bad!" This guy eats my feet first! How good is that? Frightened, he hurriedly retracted his feet, but he had already lost his mind in his heart.

However, after a while, Yun Meng didn't feel any pain, and her sprained ankle was completely restored by this cool feeling, and she secretly opened her eyes to see that the giant mouth monster was still licking her lotus feet, and her embroidered shoes were completely wet with saliva.

"This ...... What is this for? Situ Yunmeng's eyes widened in surprise, and his sleeves were placed to his lips.

"Moo~!" The Toucan retracted its tongue and jumped back, slicing Nuyunmeng's feet with its mouth.

Situ Yunmeng finally reacted, and said with a smile: "You, it turns out that you are helping me heal my injuries?" ”

"Moo~!" The fierce beast smiled proudly and nodded, if it were someone else, I wouldn't believe that such a terrible beast would be so pure, but Situ Yunmeng was different, walked over and gently stroked its body, and said softly: "Thank you." ”

The big-mouthed monster was very happy, lowered his body, wagged his tail like a puppy, and whispered at her, Yun Meng hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The big-mouthed monster shook for a while, flipped its huge body over, and turned its feet to the sky, making a puff of dust on the ground, Yun Meng turned into a flowing wind wall to clear the dust, and then looked closely at the belly of the big-mouthed monster, only to find that it was as strong as armor and had a bone spur stuck in its hard skin, Yun Meng said: "You are so powerful, will you be stuck by such a thing?" ”

"Woo~! Moo~! The giant beast called in a low voice, as if begging Yun Meng, Yun Meng thought to himself, no matter how powerful this monster is, it still has a weakness after all, the bone spurs are stuck in the cracks, and the limbs can't be scratched, it must be very uncomfortable.

"I'll help you! You helped me, and I'll help you. Yun Meng smiled softly, flew to the belly of the giant beast, grabbed the bone spur and dragged it, shook it, but couldn't pull it out, the giant beast seemed to feel very itchy, and shook violently.

"Ahh Don't worry, don't worry! I'll help you figure it out! Situ Yunmeng thought for a moment and thought of an idea, she put her right hand on the bone spur to perform the ice condensation technique, thinking that it would be easy to pull out the bone by freezing it crisply, but this bone is not only hard and tough, although it is frozen, it still can't be pulled out.

"Moo~!" The giant beast roared under its breath, but Yun Meng knew this time that it was actually pleading with itself.

"This bone is very hard, if only Ah Ye was by his side, he would definitely ......" Situ Yunmeng said, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, patted the belly of the fierce beast, and said, "Hey, although I don't know what your name is, I have already thought of a way to help you." It's going to be itchy later, you bear with it first, and it'll be fine right away, will it? ”

"Moo!" The beast nodded obediently.

Situ Yunmeng was full of confidence, and while the bones were still thawed, he held it with both hands and said softly: "Ah Ye, I still remember what you taught me...... Phoenix begging for a phoenix! Speaking of the latent wind spiritual power, two aura, one left and one right, vibrated back and forth between his hands, faster and faster, and then his body trembled.

"Woo~! Woo~! The fierce beast was itchy and rolled on the ground, Yun Meng wanted to shatter this bone, but when he saw this situation, he knew that it was too late, so he grabbed the bone spur tightly and pulled it out, but the shock was also strong, and this time he pulled it out very smoothly.

"Moo~!" The fierce beast let out a long roar and rolled over, Situ Yunmeng was caught off guard and fell off it, still clutching the three-foot-long bone spur in his hand, but his hands were numb and he didn't obey the call.

The fierce beast turned around and stared at Situ Yunmeng at his feet, standing there motionless.

Situ Yunmeng wiped his sweat with his arm, looked at the bone spurs in his hand, and said in his heart: "You guy is really hard, it took me a long time to waste." After a while, he noticed that the beast was staring at him, and asked, "Are you better?" Do you want me to help you heal your wounds? ”

That's right, Situ Yunmeng is still the same Situ Yunmeng, if it were someone else, and he was stared at by this fierce beast like this, I am afraid that he would think of Mr. Dongguo's Zhongshan wolf or something.

"Moo!" The fierce beast moved again, lowered its head and stretched out its giant tongue, licking it towards Yun Meng's whole body.

"Don't, don't!" Yunmeng panicked and raised his sleeves to cover it, where was it too late? Just licked it like this, the plain yellow dress was all soaked, and the hair was wet on the back and shoulders, which was indescribably uncomfortable.

"I told you not to ...... Alas! Situ Yunmeng hurriedly tidied up her clothes and makeup, the smell of the beast's saliva was strong, and she couldn't help coughing, as soon as she remembered that she had run to the demon world for no reason to suffer this crime, she put down her hands and sat on the ground and cried.

"Moo~! Moo~! The beast was huge, and it couldn't use its limbs to appease Yun Meng, so it had to lick it with its tongue again, wanting to make her feel better, and licked it three times in a row.

"You! Come back! After licking the first bite, Yun Meng closed one eye and said angrily.

"Stop licking." The second bite was licked, and Yun Meng frowned and said.

"Alright, alright! Whatever you want! I'm not angry anymore! After licking it for the third time, Situ Yunmeng was helpless, and suddenly felt that it was not so uncomfortable to get saliva, so he stood up, remembering that he was not familiar with life in the demon world, and asked the fierce beast again: "By the way, I want to go to Han Ye." Can you help me find him? ”

The fierce beast tilted its head to look at Yunmeng.

Situ Yunmeng sighed and said, "Forgot, how did you know Ah Ye?" So he described it, saying that he had a beautiful face, a heavy sword, and a wine bag at his waist, and after some difficulty, the beast still tilted its head to look at her, and cried out in a low voice: "Moo? ”

"It's Han Lang, you know? It's my future husband! Situ Yunmeng spread out his hands and explained with a slightly red face, and the fierce beast shook his head again and again when he heard it, and then lowered his head and shouted: "Moo." ”

"Forget it!" Yun Meng took it back, ran out of patience, and frowned: "I'd better rely on myself, since you're fine, let's say goodbye." As he spoke, he urged his spiritual power to take off into the air and fly into the air.

"Moo~!" The fierce beast called twice and chased after it, it ran very fast, rushed to the bottom of Yunmeng in the blink of an eye, jumped lightly to Yunmeng's side, and slowly fell, then jumped up again, and slowly fell, and so on.

Yunmeng knew that it was reluctant, and wanted to take a few more looks, so he complained to himself in his heart: "Situ Yunmeng, people have no malicious intentions, why do you have any temper with it?" So he sent the words out with spiritual power, and said, "Don't come with me, you can't help me, I'm here to find someone...... Next time, be careful, don't get a bone spur stuck in your belly again. ”

"Moo~!" The big-mouthed monster chased for a few more miles, and finally didn't follow again, fell back to the ground, and reluctantly watched Yunmeng leave.

As the so-called near is not inferior, far away is resentful, as soon as the big-mouthed monster left, Yun Meng gradually lost a little, and said in his heart: "Actually, it is very powerful, and it is quite safe to have it with you, but unfortunately it can only jump, not fly, it is not very convenient to go on the road together, if you fly like me, it should be much faster." At the thought of flying, she suddenly exclaimed, "That's right! How can you fly as much as you want now? ”

Facing the wind in front of her, Yun Meng could still smell the smell on her body, and she immediately understood the reason: the saliva of the big-mouthed monster could isolate the outside aura to protect her!

"Yes." Situ Yunmeng suddenly realized: "I didn't dare to fly before, because as long as I flew into the air, those demonic qi would rush into my body, but now I can fly boldly with confidence." Thank you, Big Tongue. ”

In fact, how could Situ Yunmeng understand the power of this beast? The name of this beast is called "gluttony (1)", according to legend, Chiyou and Xuanyuan fought when riding it, and then Chiyou died, gluttonous left in the greedy land, that is even the greedy land demon to be afraid of three points of the ancient demonic beast, and the nine heavens thunder beast, golden-winged phoenix, Kunpeng, fire unicorn and called the six worlds and five saints. Unlike other sacred beasts, gluttony likes to gnaw on the soil, and can gnaw the ground into an abyss within a radius of dozens of miles in one day, and because of its ugly and hideous appearance, the demons have always avoided it. Gluttony often lives alone, although it is a holy beast but full of loneliness, this time gnawing the soil was accidentally pierced into the abdomen by the underground demon dragon bone spur, only to feel the abdomen itching, so he came out of the ground, happened to meet Yun Meng, naturally asked her for help.

Since his body was covered with gluttonous saliva, although he was a little disgusting, after all, he flew freely, not to mention that those big bats and thunder birds in the air also stayed away from Situ Yunmeng, obviously afraid of the smell of gluttony, so he flew thousands of miles all the way. However, the turbidity in the demon world is more and less clear, Situ Yunmeng can't absorb the aura, and after flying for a long time, he gradually feels weak, more and more tired, and is thinking about whether to find a place to rest, just when he sees a ten-mile-wide banyan forest in front of him, there is a small village in the woods, looking down from above, there are only a dozen families in this village.

"This place is so desolate, how can there be such a village? It's weird. Situ Yunmeng descended, looking at the street made of mud and stone, a road runs through the entire village from north to south, and there are seven or eight villagers walking slowly on the road, she said in her heart: "No matter, since there are people, it is best to ask them about Ah Ye's whereabouts first, ask for directions, and rest by the way." ”

Situ Yunmeng went to ask the villagers for directions, but the villagers continued to walk as if they hadn't seen anything, and two of them entered a wine shop made of banyan trees, Situ Yunmeng followed, thinking: "Probably the people in the demon world don't understand the outside language, but there is a wine shop here, go find the shopkeeper, maybe he can understand my words." ”

In fact, Situ Yunmeng didn't think about the key points, the demon world was greedy and deserted, and what store would open a store in such a remote village?

When I entered the restaurant, I found that the restaurant was strangely furnished, with five or six sets of tables and chairs, all of which were made of yew wood, and the windows and pillars were all made of vine branches, but the most conspicuous thing was the counter, which was completely made of gold, and the gold was very dazzling.

Situ Yunmeng was surprised, looking around for the figure of the shopkeeper, at this time, she saw a mirror placed in front of the counter, this is a floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror, seven feet high, shining her whole body in it, it is indeed strange to have such a thing in the wine shop, but after not looking in the mirror for a long time, Situ Yunmeng naturally couldn't help but look, what he saw was just another self.

"This mirror is so weird." Situ Yunmeng stood in front of the mirror and straightened her clothes and makeup, pulling her messy hair behind her, and suddenly felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at her on the other side of the mirror, staring at people with creepy, she couldn't help but say to herself: "It's weird uncomfortable, could it be that it can still capture people's souls?" ”

Thinking of this, Yun Meng didn't dare to look at it anymore, turned around and stroked the green silk on his chest, and was about to call the shopkeeper, when he suddenly heard a rough shout: "Yo! Buy and go! ”

"Three sixes, leopards! Big and small kills! Hahaha! The person who spoke was laughing, Situ Yunmeng followed the prestige, and saw four or five people around a table rolling dice and gambling, including the two villagers who had just entered, but what made Yunmeng wonder was why he hadn't noticed them just now?

The villagers are simple in appearance, look a little similar, at first glance it is really impossible to tell which is which, Yun Meng estimates that the people in the village may be like this, and then look at the person sitting in the village, dressed luxuriously and vulgarly, with a scruffy beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes, big shoulders and round waist, but like a gambling house.

The villager excitedly took away the gambling money of other villagers, and the gold was piled up into a hill around him, and a villager sighed and was about to leave, but the villager pulled him and smiled: "Don't be in a hurry to go!" The old rule, one tael of gold for ten years of work, you owe me a hundred taels of gold, either stay here and do something for me for a thousand years, or let me eat your soul, increase the Tao, and choose for yourself! ”

Seeing that there was no way out, the villager turned his heart and said, "No! I'm going to bet on it! Lend me another hundred taels of gold! ”

"Good! That's what you want! The farmer gave him a thumbs up, but did not directly allocate a hundred taels of gold to him, but took out a jade treasure pot from the bottom of the table, and the treasure pot was engraved with three big characters in gold inscription - "cornucopia", and the banker picked up one hundred taels of gold and threw it into this cornucopia, and soon, the cornucopia spit out two parts of gold and fell on the table, each of which was one hundred taels, a total of two hundred taels.

Situ Yunmeng was slightly startled, and said in his heart: "This is a treasure weapon." However, firstly, the banker talked a lot with the gamblers, and it was inconvenient for her to interject, and secondly, she was also quite interested in these things, so she did not rush to ask them.

The banker shook the dice again, pressed it on the table, and said, "Buy and leave, big or small?" ”

The villager took a hundred taels of gold and put it on the "big", and said loudly: "It's up to you to see this!" Big! ”

The dealer took the tube away, and everyone fixed their eyes to see that two, three, four, was a "small".

"It seems that God won't help you." The farmer smiled and shook his head, and took all the gold from the villagers.

The villager slumped in his chair, his face pale, and muttered, "Two thousand years...... and I will serve thee for two thousand years. ”

The villager shook his head and opened his mouth towards the villagers, and the villagers turned into a cloud of blue smoke and was sucked into his mouth. ”

After the Zhuang sucked the soul, the cornucopia also bloomed brightly, and he said to the others: "The cornucopia is not a white treasure, every time a treasure is born, it will consume the aura, if you don't have the capital to gamble with me, you have to be sorry." ”

Just as he was saying triumphantly, Situ Yunmeng flicked his sleeves and accused: "It's not right for you to do this, the soul is also life, even if you lose, you are not qualified to take it away." ”

The person sitting in the village seemed to have already noticed that Yun Meng was here, closed his eyes and recuperated, and said, "You ask these people around me to see if they are voluntary?" Gambling is like buying and selling, you love me, and I am willing to gamble and lose, but some people gamble for money, and some people gamble for their lives, and each takes what he needs. ”

Situ Yunmeng frowned again and said, "But that person didn't say that he wanted to gamble his life just now, but you took his life." ”

The banker opened his eyes and said, "Wrong! Their lives belonged to me a long time ago, these people are so indulgent, insatiable, always want me this cornucopia, so they bet with me, and if they lose the bet, they have nothing to give me, so they have to take their lives to pay, the reason why they have not died until now is just that I pity them and let them do something for me, when I want them to die, they have to die! As he spoke, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he looked at Yun Meng and said, "Your life will soon not be your own, fairy." ”

Situ Yunmeng said: "But I didn't say I wanted to bet with you." ”

The banker laughed and said, "I didn't say that your life belongs to me, and there are still people who want your life, you might as well turn around and take a look." ”

Situ Yunmeng turned around to look at it when she heard this, and was taken aback, and there was a floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror standing behind her, which was the mirror she had looked at just now, but it had been moved here from the wall unconsciously.

What is reflected in the mirror is no longer Situ Yunmeng, but a woman in Xuanyi, she is slender, delicate, and a little bewitching in her beauty, what is frightening is that she has no facial features on her face, but a faceless woman, and said angrily to the Zhuang people: "Bon demon, you take your treasure, I want my person, why remind her to pay attention to me?" You're so bored! "Because there is no mouth, the sound seems to come from the stomach.

The farmer smiled triumphantly: "What are you afraid of, are you still worried that the cooked duck will fly?" ”

As he spoke, the villagers who were sitting at the table all turned into dirt and melted into the ground of the wine shop, and a few wisps of blue smoke wafted out of the soil were all sucked into the mouth of the Zhuang man.

"I used to eat these spirits, but I can release them at any time to make a show, not only the villagers, but the whole village was transformed by me and the Bronze Mirror Demon." The treasure pot demon smiled: "It's just to attract you here, and the fire spirit beads, flowing jade rings, and Qingluan umbrellas on your body should all be handed over." ”

Situ Yunmeng finally understood that he was too careless, and his body was full of gluttonous smell, covering up the breath of the rest of the people in the outside world, so he entered the trap of the demon, but it was too late to regret it, the bronze mirror demon shook his hair, and the black hair stretched several times, wrapped around Yunmeng's waist, and said to the treasure pot demon: "Don't be busy asking for your baby first, this little fairy is very beautiful, wait for me to take her appearance first, and it's not too late to leave the rest to you." ”

The treasure pot demon suddenly turned into anger and said, "Broken mirror! Say it in advance, don't spoil my baby again, or you'll look good! ”

"Dare to threaten me?" The Bronze Mirror Demon said: "Every grass and tree in this village, as well as this wine shop, which one didn't I conjure up for you?" It's easy for you to turn into a few walking dead to do a show here, and in terms of credit, shouldn't I get the reward I deserve first? ”

Situ Yunmeng thought to himself: "You two will quarrel slowly first, and I won't accompany you." Thinking like this, a cold air emanated from his body, and the temperature plummeted within three zhang, wanting to freeze the hair of the Bronze Mirror Demon, and then break free.

The Bronze Mirror Demon was slightly startled and shouted, "Little fairy, do you still dare to resist?" Let's talk about it in my mirror! As he spoke, he tightened Yunmeng's limbs and waist, and slowly dragged her into the mirror.

Seeing that the danger was imminent, Situ Yunmeng would not sit still, while releasing the cold air, he burst out with powerful wind spiritual power, blowing the entire wine shop swaying, and the bronze mirror demon knew that one person could not control Yunmeng, and shouted: "Dead basin, don't just look at it!" It's rare to meet a piece of fat, don't you want it! ”

The greedy land is deserted, and it is indeed rare to meet such a good thing as Yunmeng, the treasure pot demon didn't say a word, picked up the cornucopia and slapped the bottom of the pot at Yunmeng, and there was a loud rumble, and a thunderbolt slashed at Situ Yunmeng.

"Ahh Yun Meng screamed in horror, her body trembled violently, she was so shocked that she almost fainted, the Bronze Mirror Demon took this opportunity to pull her into the mirror, and Yun Meng flew towards the mirror.

At this moment of lightning, the earth within a radius of a hundred miles suddenly trembled, and the wine shook uncontrollably, as if it was about to collapse.

The Bronze Mirror Demon was shocked and closed the mirror, blocking Yunmeng from the outside.

The treasure pot demon was puzzled and asked, "Broken mirror, what are you doing?" You don't want such a beautiful product? ”

The Bronze Mirror Demon lowered his head, trembling all over, although he couldn't see his expression, Situ Yunmeng clearly felt the fear in her heart, and he could only hear her tremble and say, "Idiot! Don't you smell her? That's, that's the smell of gluttony! ”

When the treasure pot demon heard the gluttony, he also became nervous, and said tremblingly: "Don't, don't panic!" The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and it can't manage to come here! ”

"But it's down there! It's right below us! The bronze mirror demon screamed in surprise: "This fairy has its smell, probably because it wants to keep it for later to eat, if we take food from the tiger's mouth, our lives are not guaranteed, so let's withdraw!" With that, he left Yunmeng behind and flew out of the wine shop.

"Gluttonous grandpa! Don't come to me for bad luck! You've got what you want! Say goodbye! At this time, the entire liquor store began to collapse downward, and a ten-zhang whirlpool was born on the ground, sucking the yew tables and chairs, the golden counter, and the vine pillars in the store all sucked in, and the whirlpool expanded rapidly, like the mouth of an ancient giant beast, and soon ate the entire wine shop clean, but this was not enough to satisfy it, and then there were villages, banyan forests, and the land within a radius of ten miles became a dark abyss in the blink of an eye!

Situ Yun dreamed that many things flashed in front of him, and he quickly threw himself into the whirlpool, and he was panicking, but he found that he was not affected at all, even if he could not protect an inch of land under his feet, he could still levitate in the air.

The abyss below was already boundless, and in the darkness, a monster with a body length of six feet and a body shaped like a cow burst out, bringing a thick black earth whirlwind to the sky!

"Mom!" The screams of the Bon Demon and the Bronze Mirror Demon came from afar, and it turned out that they hadn't run far yet, so they couldn't help but look back.

"Woo~!" The gluttony was furious, and blew a breath of Xuan Feng at them, which was terrifyingly fast, blowing thirty zhang away in the blink of an eye, rolling the pair of demons into the air, and the bronze mirror and cornucopia were petrified, and then turned into a little dust!

As soon as the cornucopia was destroyed, the big man was also wiped out, Situ Yunmeng knew that the cornucopia was the body of this man at this moment, but she didn't expect the big tongue to be so powerful, killing two demons who were not under her in an instant.

The gluttony eliminated the evil spirits, and then it fell to the ground ten miles away, where the soil was still intact, and Situ Yunmeng followed the wind.

"Didn't you stop coming with you?" Situ Yunmeng came to Tao Tao and complained softly, but he was always very happy to see Tao Tao again, so he stroked his rough and hard back and said, "However, thank you for saving me." ”

"Moo~!" Gluttony nodded at Yunmeng, lowered his body, and shook the giant horn on his back.

"...... are you?" Yun Meng's jade eyes widened slightly, pointed at himself and asked, "Tell me to get on your back?" ”

Gluttony nodded vigorously and flicked his tail.

Yun Meng thought to himself, he was too easy to believe in people, and his strength in the demon world was not good, sooner or later he would suffer a big loss, maybe he would die before he met Han Ye, after all, it was much more convenient to take the gluttony, so he happily lifted his skirt on his back, hugged it and said with a giant horn on his back: "But you don't know who I'm looking for, how can you take me there?" ”

After all, gluttony has spirituality, and this time he seemed to be clear about Yunmeng's thoughts, and he moved his four legs and ran quickly on the ground, setting off a gust of wind. As the running speed increased, the fleshy wings on both sides of it like ears suddenly became larger, and with a hula, the flesh wings shook open and turned into a pair of black wings five feet large, which resembled bat wings, constantly flapping in the air, and flying high!

Yunmeng was overjoyed: "It turns out that you can fly!" ”

The gluttony flew up to the sky of purple clouds, nodded and said, "Moo~!" ”

"That's good." Yun Meng said with relief, and the three-flower gold seal on her forehead also flashed, and she released a burst of clear spiritual fragrance, which complemented the gluttony.

The gluttony was as fast as a lightning storm, and soon took Yun Meng to the chaotic realm in the center of the greedy land, and when he stopped, Yun Meng felt surprised, looking at the nine-colored mixed light, and asked the gluttony under him, "What are you bringing me here for?" ”

"Moo~! Moo~! Gluttony shook his head inward.

Yun Meng said knowingly, "Oh, you want me to go in there...... What about you? ”

"Woo~!" Gluttony lowered his head, seemingly reluctantly.

Yun Meng thought that it might not be able to enter there, so he moved forward, put his face against its back, stroked it gently, and said softly: "Thank you for helping me along the way, if there is fate, let's see you again." ”

So, Yun Meng jumped down from the gluttony, reluctantly said goodbye to it, and entered the chaos, and was surrounded by the dense powder light that first surrounded his body until it disappeared, leaving only the remnants of the shadow and fragrance.

"Moo——!" The gluttony let out a long howl and reluctantly bid farewell to Fairy Lanxiang......

Exegesis:

(1) "gluttony" - the fifth son of the nine sons of the dragon, very greedy, because of eating too much and finally being strangled, there is also a saying that it eats its own body to only one head, and later described the greedy person as "gluttonous". There is a cloud in "The Divine Mystery of the Western Wilderness": "Gluttony, the name of the beast, the body is like a cow, the face of a man, the eyes are under the armpits, and the cannibalism is eaten." "Gluttony in many games, novels, comics, film and television works have a related image, the food industry in the gluttony is synonymous with eating, with a strong sense of praise, the author because of love, for its image has also done some artistic processing.
