Jinji Ridge used to be also called Centipede Ridge.

Legend has it that there was a thousand-year-old centipede spirit entrenched here, and every day it had to go down the mountain to eat people, and the local people suffered greatly.

One day, a big golden rooster six or seven feet tall suddenly came to the mountain, and a rooster crowed, which scared to death the thousand-year-old centipede spirit entrenched here.

Since then, in order to thank the rooster, the local people have changed the name of Centipede Ridge to Jinjiling.

The night wind blew through Jinji Ridge, and the grass and trees made a rustling sound.

Zhang Xiu wore a grass ring on his head, lying in the grass, his hands slightly separated the weeds in front of him, and peeked to observe the movement on the top of the mountain.

Lying on his left is Mrs. Xin, the reason why he didn't become a braised fox is not that Zhang Xiu is afraid that he can't beat him, well, it's simply that he thinks the fox is sour!

To his right is the snake demon Qingling.

At this time, the snake demon was staring at Zhang Xiu suspiciously, feeling the fainter and weaker demonic aura and poison on his body, and suddenly felt that he was a little less like his own kind, but more like a ...... An ordinary mortal?

Zhang Xiu noticed her gaze, and said suspiciously: "What are you staring at me, pay close attention to the movement outside, and be ready to grab people at any time." ”

A ghostly light flashed in the snake demon's vertical pupils, and a strange smile curled up at the corner of his mouth: "Well, I'll pay close attention." ”

As he spoke, an old white-eyed monk with a long beard walked slowly from the bottom of the mountain, chanting as he walked.

"It is a fire in the heart, which can burn the merit forest. If you want to practice the Bodhisattva path, endure humiliation and protect your true heart. ”

After a while, the old monk came to the pavilion on the top of the mountain, stopped, and said with a smile in his eyes: "This is really lively, this wind and this scene, it is a good time to participate in Zen and enlightenment!" ”

As he spoke, he sat down, took out the Buddhist beads, and recited the scriptures.

After a while, Xu was hungry, opened a wooden box, took out a few pieces of dry food from it, and ate it with great pleasure.

By the moonlight, Zhang Xiu saw dripping blood dripping from the dry food, where is the dry food, it is clearly the hearts of people!

"The case has been solved, he is the murderer who dissected the heart......"

Zhang Xiu's scalp tingled in shock, and he whispered, and then asked, "What kind of monster is this old monk?" ”

Old Lady Xin used the method of piercing illusion, her eyes lit up with a glimmer of golden light, she stared at the old monk for a while, and said in a deep voice: "A scorpion spirit who has practiced for thousands of years, his life is about to end, and he has to rely on eating people's hearts to continue his life." For the Seven Tricks Exquisite Heart, he should be determined to achieve it. ”

Zhang Xiu stared at the old monk a few more times, remembered his appearance, and turned his face to look at Old Lady Xin: "Why hasn't that person with a seven-trick exquisite heart show up yet, we have been waiting for two hours, will he not come tonight?" ”

Old Lady Xin shook her head slightly: "I don't know, maybe the information of these monsters is wrong." ”

The snake demon laughed, and the weird smile on his face became more and more intense: "That's not necessarily. ”

"Huh?"

When Zhang Xiu and Old Lady Xin were stunned, a snake tail suddenly wrapped around Zhang Xiu's body, and the snake demon turned into a black light, rolling Zhang Xiu and rushing down the mountain.

Old lady Xin was startled at first, and after reacting, she secretly said bad in her heart, and hurriedly chased after her.

Two rays of light, one black and one red, chased in the mountains and forests, and after a short time, they came to the front of the turbulent Huai River.

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Old Lady Xin, the snake demon stopped by the river, and his tail lifted Zhang Xiu high and stretched it out on the tumbling and rushing river.

"Stop, old fox, if you dare to move again, I'll throw him into the river!"

Old Lady Xin tensed up and stopped ten zhang away, and said anxiously: "Brother and sister, if you have something to say, put my junior brother down first!" ”

The snake demon sneered: "What are you calling nonsense, old thing, I don't have a human husband." ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, she knew that her identity had been recognized by her, and asked with a toothache: "When did you see it?" ”

The snake demon glared at him angrily and said, "I just saw that no matter how subtle your method of hiding your aura is, it is impossible to give birth to human yang qi out of thin air!" ”

Zhang Xiu sighed helplessly, and then said: "Let's discuss, I know who the person with the Seven Tricks is who the exquisite heart is, you let me down first, I can tell you everything I know." ”

A gleam flashed in the snake demon's eyes, and he couldn't wait to ask, "Oh, do you know that person?" Let's hear it first! ”

Zhang Xiu introduced very enthusiastically: "That person lives in Xiniu Hezhou, a place called Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, if you are interested in him, I can send you to see him for free!" ”

The snake demon was stunned for a moment, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, this place sounds very familiar, what is that person's name?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly: "If you come to the Buddha!" ”

"Ha ???"

The moment the snake demon was distracted, a dazzling white light cut through the dark night, the snake demon screamed, blood splashed, and its tail was cut off by the white light.

Without the snake demon being coerced, Zhang Xiu fell from the air with his head upside down, and when he was about to fall into the river, Yan Feng came with a sword, grabbed Zhang Xiu, and fell to the ground.

After landing safely, Zhang Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to Yan Feng gratefully: "Thank you, I will invite you to eat the best chicken butt in Huainan when I go back, how many do you want to eat!" ”

Yan Feng: "......"

But I don't like chicken butts at all!

After meeting Yan Feng at noon, Zhang Xiu put forward a proposal to divide the troops into two ways, and let Yan Feng ambush in the dark as a surprise soldier. One light and one dark, so that they can take care of each other.

This is where Zhang Xiu's confidence lies in not panicking even if he is held hostage by the snake demon.

At this time, the injured snake demon completely stimulated its ferocity, and a pair of blood-red vertical pupils appeared in his eyes, like a mad demon, rushing towards Yan Feng.

Yan Feng cut the index finger of his right hand, smeared it on the sword body, threw the sword in his hand into the air with a throw of his right hand, pinched the sword trick in his hand, and shouted loudly.

"Heaven and earth are infinite, Xuanxin is correct!"

As he pointed a little forward, the sword let out a humming sound, and instantly turned into a sword array, and dozens of swords flew towards the snake demon in unison!

After a burst of brilliant streamers, the snake demon's body turned into a rain of blood, and its form and spirit were all wiped out in Yan Feng's sword array.

A fishy smell permeated the river, and the wind could not blow, Zhang Xiu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, frowned, and said: "Brother Yan, when you make a move in the future, try to keep an eye on it, five hundred years of snake gall can be worth a lot of money." ”

Yan Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes after hearing this, and before he could speak, a white light suddenly flashed.

An old monk with long eyebrows wearing a white monk's robe appeared in front of the three of them with compassion on his face, and showed a peaceful smile towards Zhang Xiu.

"Amitabha, donor, please stay, you were born with the old man!"
