Chapter 1 Entering a Foreign Land—A New Life
A red sun hung over the horizon.
The sunlight shines through the thick clouds on the verdant meadows, forming a dazzling patch of colorful mottled as if there is no edge in sight.
Ye Qiao sat on the ground with her chin up, looking at the sea of flowers not far away, until a bird flew down from the branch, fluttered its wings and landed on her shoulder, and the chirping sound made her wake up like a dream, sighing slightly.
"Why did you choose me?"
It's been a month since he entered the foreign land, and Ye Qiao still can't understand why he was favored by a goblin and brought here.
A month ago, Ye Qiao was just an ordinary fresh graduate.
But it's not quite accurate to describe her as ordinary, these two words seem to be too exalted to her when used on her.
After all, when Ye Qiao remembered, he was born with an unlucky physique, he was disgusted with relatives and friends, and he was disgusted by people, coupled with a pair of bizarre yin and yang eyes, almost everyone regarded him as an unlucky sign.
It's a miracle to survive to graduate from college.
Since being pointed at her backbone and cursing her for killing her parents, the people in the village have been scolded for three days and beaten for five days, and Ye Qiao has long been alive and well.
For more than 20 years, she has been hovering on the verge of death several times, but in the end she has inexplicably survived, and she has been completely numb.
Like a soulless walking corpse.
So a month ago, when the weird willow tree suddenly appeared beside her and invited her to leave, Ye Qiao chose to leave without hesitation.
For her, where to live is not to live?
Leaving with a willow spirit is nothing more than the difference between jumping from the knife mountain into the sea of fire.
But Ye Qiao never expected that this hand-holding would completely change her life......
The willow spirit transformed into a human form, and he didn't let Ye Qiao suffer to work every day, and the imaginary spirit abuse of humans didn't happen, just accompanied Ye Qiao to sit in front of the door of the Dream Pavilion and chat.
Occasionally, when they didn't speak, they would look at the continuous sea of flowers together, and then disappear again inadvertently after Ye Qiao.
"yes, why?" I don't know when, Aoyagi has sat quietly beside Ye Qiao, just like every day for the past month.
Ye Qiao turned his head, and his heart suddenly erupted with endless curiosity.
"Sister Aoyagi, after so many days, can you tell me the truth?"
Aoyagi looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "What, can't you stay?" Isn't it bad here? With mountains, water, and a sea of colorful flowers, isn't that the life you have always longed for? ”
"Yes......" Ye Qiao nodded and shook his head again.
"But I know best what kind of person I am, this is not where a broom star like me should be.
With me, this place will soon change, the flowers will wither, the water will dry up, and even Sister Aoyagi, you will be unlucky with it......"
Ye Qiao said, his eyes, which were still shiny, gradually dimmed, as if they had lost their vitality.
The blank and unfocused gaze couldn't help but make Aoyagi's heart sour, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red. "I'm not around, have you had such a hard time every life..."
Ye Qiao looked at Qingliu sluggishly, as if he didn't really hear: "What did you say?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a mutually beneficial relationship." Aoyagi remembered Master's admonition when he went down the mountain, and hurriedly changed his words.
"Actually, you are the purest spirit body, which is helpful to my spiritual cultivation, not to mention that I have a spiritual weapon in my hand, which only the spirit body can inherit."
Aoyagi lowered his eyebrows lightly, and his tone was indifferent: "So, I have to find you to help me." ”
"The purest spirit? I? Ye Qiao was stunned for a moment, and only after a while did he sneer:
"Sister Aoyagi, don't make trouble, I'll believe it when I say I'm an unlucky ghost in hell, forget about the spirit, and it's even more ...... as for the spirit weapon or something."
"You don't know you, so why should you be vain?"
Before the words fell, Qingliu directly interrupted her, took off the pendant around her neck, and gently put it into Ye Qiao's hand:
"The Dream Pavilion we are in is built in a foreign land opened up by the Book of Merit.
This jade pendant has a space to store spiritual weapons, and the merit book is in it, and it is also the space where my spiritual cultivation is located, and it will be handed over to you for safekeeping in the future. ”
Ye Qiao took it blankly, and the moment the pendant touched her palm, there was a golden light, and the dream returned to the museum to shine brightly!
A golden ancient book detached from the pendant and quickly burrowed into Ye Qiao's body!
All this seemed to be completed in the blink of an eye, and before Ye Qiao could react, the golden light had disappeared, and the ancient book was gone.
"This ......" Just when Ye Qiao was stunned, an old and domineering voice came from his mind.
"Little one, I feel a familiar smell in you, and I like this smell very much, so don't try to break free!
From now on, you and I will be one, and we will live together from generation to generation, unless one of them falls.
Remember, I am both an immortal weapon and a chance, and you must do your best to help them fulfill their wishes from now on! ”
Ye Qiao: "??? ”
"Little girl, don't be unhappy, as long as you help others fulfill your wishes, there will be the power of merit in your spiritual body, and the power of merit is omnipotent, how many immortals and demons are fighting bloody battles to snatch me, what a sin..."
Ye Qiao: "......"
"Do you want to change your fate? Want to stand at the top of the world? Do you think the unlucky constitution and yin-yang eyes are innate? Wrong, wrong, wrong! That's a curse that only a god can inflict.
Don't you want revenge, O god of light, who has laid such a vicious curse on a woman? ”
Ye Qiao: "That ......"
"Gather the power of merit! Not only can you easily break the curse on your body, but you can also turn into an immortal, do you want it? Want to do it or not? ……”
Ye Qiao covered her face, and didn't say a word from beginning to end, the voice in her head disappeared without a trace, no matter how she called, there was no response!
————————
The moonlight peeked in through the window, and Ye Qiao's heart was in turmoil.
It turns out that her parents are not implicated by her, but she herself is the biggest victim? All this is a curse from God?
If this is really the case, then this can be regarded as the best news that Ye Qiao has heard since he was a child.
She can finally be unscrupulously wronged, and she can rest assured that she can hate boldly!
Ye Qiao's eyebrows were slightly curled, trying to show ease and ease, but her clenched fists could not avoid exposing the anger hidden in her heart.
No matter who it is, she has suffered for so many years, and she does not deserve to be forgiven!
The merit book is right, she wants revenge! Very, very much!
"I will definitely find you and let you taste the suffering I have experienced!"
Ye Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly and got up and sat cross-legged on the couch, her white hands lightly resting on the edge of the bed, recalling the method that Aoyagi had just taught her, and her mouth began to murmur like a mantra, and her thoughts repeatedly called in her heart.
Gradually, white smoke slowly rose from the back of her hand, and it was not until it spread out to cover her palm that Ye Qiao hurriedly raised her hands, staring at the strange phenomenon in her palm.
The white smoke dissipated quickly, and after about a few breaths, an old notebook appeared in her hand.
Even after seeing the weirdness for more than 20 years, the bizarre picture in front of him still shocked Ye Qiao.
On the cover of the yellowed ancient book, the three large characters of the "Book of Merit" are particularly conspicuous, and the strange patterns wrap the words inside, like the branches of a tree growing upwards that are intertwined with each other, and they are not distinguishable from each other.
It is obviously an ancient and simple brushwork, but it gives people a vibrant and strange look.
Turning the first page, there is a faint row of small characters on the yellowed page, but only a short one may be visible.
"Swimming,
The wish is not fulfilled. ”
Six words, Ye Qiao read it over and over again I don't know how many times, but this has no beginning and no end, she really doesn't know how to start!
"Swimming should be a name, but what is his wish unfulfilled? I don't know where to find someone, isn't that embarrassing? ”
Ye Qiao muttered, clueless: "Why don't you call Sister Aoyagi out and ask?" ”
"No, no, no, forget it, Sister Aoyagi wants to cultivate, it's not good to disturb her old man."
"But I'm ......"
"Hey, forget it, let's take it one step at a time." After struggling for a while, Ye Qiao finally sighed helplessly and put away the merit book, fell directly into the pillow and threw the quilt, skillfully covered his head, and fell into a deep sleep.
—————
Time flickered, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Qiao held instant noodles as usual, standing at the door of the Dream Return Hall and enjoying the exotic scenery, while Aoyagi sat on the sofa in the lobby of the Dream Return Hall, holding a thick book and reading quietly.
After three or two breakfasts, Ye Qiao came to Aoyagi's side like a kitten, and asked coquettishly: "Sister Aoyagi, what kind of good books do you read, so fascinating?" ”
Aoyagi didn't raise his head: "On the role of corporal punishment in improving the motivation of employees. ”
Ye Qiao got up and left suddenly, and kept cheering himself up with his hands in fists:
"Start earning merit, come on! Come on! Come on! ”
When I opened the merit book again, there were still rows of small characters displayed in front of me, as if I had spiritual sense, and I kept moving forward, looking very anxious.
But the only thing that can be clearly displayed is still the line of swimming.
Ye Qiao pursed his lips, as if he had been poured on his head by a basin of cold water, and said to Qingliu depressedly: "Sister, what is the situation?" Just show a name, I... I don't have a place to speak! ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and gently rubbed it over the name.
In a flash!
A strong light flashed, Ye Qiao only felt a sudden dizziness in his head, and then inexplicably entered a mountain that he had never seen before.
As if you are in the scene, you can clearly perceive the fog in the air coming to your face, and it is moist and cool on your face.
Ye Qiao stretched out his hand to stroke the dewy petals in front of him, but his hand went straight through.
“???”
What's going on? She can perceive, but she doesn't exist?
The sounds of birds, insects, and animals echo in the mountains, and you can hear the sounds of frolicking and playing.
"Right here! It told me yesterday that I was going to transform today. ”
A little boy with a smart look and a delicate appearance appeared in front of Ye Qiao, and was pointing to the grass under his feet and said happily.
Hearing this, several elves hurriedly surrounded the grass and protected it to death, waiting for the thunder tribulation that it transformed.
Suddenly, the sky changed!
Several elves were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly scattered and fled, away from the grass.
Even Ye Qiao was frightened back a few steps, looked up at the sky in horror, and then saw a purple thunder suddenly slash on the ground, exploding bursts of black smoke.
After the smoke completely cleared, a little elf with a blackened body and an explosive head stood in the position of the thunderbolt with big white teeth.
The rest of the elves swarmed up, pulling him to look left and right and couldn't stop, and their mouths were amazed.
"It's amazing, I didn't get so black when I transformed."
"Me too!"
"Who isn't!"
"I'm going to be white, not like him at all!"
A few little ones were noisy and very active, and the scene was really a bit chaotic, and the eldest of them raised their hands to signal everyone to be quiet.
The elves seemed to listen to him, and they fell silent.
Only then did the elder spirit speak: "Now that the family is getting stronger and stronger, since we are the first group of demons in the mountains to successfully transform into a demon, we must not be lazy!"
Everyone must work hard to cultivate and protect our homeland and those brothers and sisters who have not yet been transformed! ”
The young spirit looked firm, and the rest of the little companions also agreed with his idea, and none of them refuted it.
Seeing that all the brothers agreed, the young spirit was also very happy, and then said: "Then let's set up a monster group, and everyone will choose their own names!"
From now on, I will call it swimming, I am a fish, and I like to swim in the water the most.
Because I'm the first to change, you're going to call me boss in the future. ”
"The boss is so powerful, I won't name it, I'm the second to transform it, so I'll call it You Er from now on." The elf in the second incarnation scratched its head, full of shyness.
"Then I'm Yousan!"
"Tour Four! Tour 4! ”
"You Five!"
"Then the grass that finally transforms is called You Liu, is that okay?" Swim asked for his opinion, but was not arbitrary.
The little grass spirit nodded heavily when she heard this, and said happily: "Thank you, boss!" I like it, and I have a name! I'm You Six! ”
The mountains were filled with laughter.
The spirits who have just entered the world are as simple as a blank sheet of paper, their eyes are transparent, and they always have a smile on their lips, they believe that the world is good, and look forward to a better tomorrow.
I firmly believe that the mountain will always be my home, and I will do everything to protect this home, waiting for the birth of the next brother and sister.
After the formation of the monster group, the swimming water began to get busy.
He went down the mountain and learned a lot from those uncles and aunts, and taught the rest of the elves without reservation, teaching them how to cultivate more quickly and how to make delicious food.
The elves are all starry in their eyes, and they worship each other.
The boss is amazing!
The simple and happy days soon passed half a year, and when all the elves thought that the happiness would go on forever, a group of strangers were ushered in on the mountain.
Dressed in black robes, they rummaged around the mountains, not knowing what they were looking for.
In addition to swimming, the rest of the little elves have never come down the mountain, except for these little friends of their own, they have never seen anyone, so seeing that there are suddenly many more people in the mountain at this moment, it naturally aroused the curiosity of the big guys.
Seeing this, You Shui stepped forward to ask the black-robed man in the lead.
"Are you their boss? I'm also the boss, and I welcome you to the mountain. ”
The black-robed man in the lead looked at Youshui with disdain, and Youshui introduced his home to the black-robed man by himself, and did not notice the disgust in the black-robed man's eyes.
He naively thought that these people were just as kind and gentle as the uncles and uncles under the mountain.
"If you need help, you can tell us, and we'll be happy to help."
"Can you please help us get some food and water?" The corners of the black-robed man's mouth hooked up a mocking smile, he knew very well how simple and easy this little elf in the mountains was.
You Shui nodded hurriedly, and ran to the little elves in three or two steps and said, "This is the first time someone has come to the house as a guest, we must treat them well."
The guests are happy, maybe they will invite us to their house in the future, and the uncles under the mountain said that they all visit the door to increase their feelings. ”
The elves were thrilled when they heard this.
They haven't been to someone's house yet!
Hurriedly collected all kinds of food in the mountains, holding the most simple tools, and making what they thought was the most delicious food in the world.
Seeing this, the black-robed man led by him felt even more disdainful in his heart, and sneered unabashedly:
"What a lovely bunch... Idiot. ”
