Chapter 8: The White Peak Sea (II)

"I was chased into the forest by wild dogs, and they surrounded me, and suddenly one of them pounced on me and bit my leg." The boy in front of him, who claimed to be looking north, said to Bai Fenghai.

Beiwang pulled his pants open, and in addition to the dark purple brand on his calf, there were indeed wounds from animal bites.

It's just that the wound has healed.

Bai Fenghai still kept a safe distance from Beiwang, and there was a fire between the two.

And Beiwang is in the rune array, as long as Beiwang steps out of the rune array, he will be burned by the pure fire.

"How could it be..."Beiwang didn't seem to be able to figure out the situation.

"I thought I was dying, but suddenly I felt a fire burning out of my heart, and when I woke up, I was tied up by you." Beiwang continued to explain, trying to impress Bai Fenghai with his pitiful eyes.

Bai Fenghai was naturally not affected by this, but he didn't plan to kill this kid in the first place.

"According to what you said, what did your demon slayer grandmother tell you?" Bai Fenghai took a bite of the bread given by the villagers.

"She said you have a fragment of Shennong Ding, which can help me lift the curse." Beiwang replied, his eyes looking directly at the cake in Bai Fenghai's hand, "But I don't understand, I've read in classics and medical books, isn't Shennong Ding used as a refining medicine, is there a medicine to remove the curse?" ”

"Of course not." Bai Fenghai picked up another piece of cake to eat, "Shennong Ding's ability is to fuse the spiritual power of heaven and earth with alchemy, and naturally it can also separate spiritual power, maybe this is what your demon slayer grandmother means." ”

"Is it true?" Hope welled up in the boy's eyes.

"But the fragment of Shennongding is no longer with me, and I am also looking for it." Bai Fenghai said.

Bai Fenghai knew his frustration even if he didn't look north, but when Bai Fenghai looked at the fire, he remembered the dryad again.

"Then come with me to the North Peak." Beiwang stood up and said, "I'll take you back the fragments, and you will protect me." ”

"Hahaha!" Bai Fenghai laughed so much that the cake squirted out, "You kid, your milk hasn't been cut off for a few years, hahahahaha." ”

"I'm not there."

"Oh? Then you don't know that no one has ever been on Beiwang Peak, not even on the mountainside. Bai Fenghai looked directly into Beiwang's eyes and said, he was a little disgusted with the self-righteous child in front of him, "Can you bear this weak body?" ”

"Grandma told me that her fragment was handed over to the mountain god to guard..."Beiwang said, and stepped out of the rune array with one foot, and the pure fire immediately burned his leg, but Beiwang did not show pain, "The artifacts can echo each other, and if you find grandma's fragment, you can get your back and lift my curse." ”

Beiwang stepped out of the other foot, and the pure fire spread to the whole body, obviously the young man was already in great pain, his brows were tightly locked, but he refused to let out a miserable scream.

The fireflies behind him lit up, dispelling the pure fire on Beiwang's body, and even the burning wounds were healing.

"I'm not weak." Beiwang said.

Under the light of the stars, the young man's will like a giant convinced Bai Fenghai.

"It's okay to climb the mountain, but you have to do what I tell you the whole time, and if you go crazy like you just did, I'll kill you." Bai Fenghai said.

"It's a deal." Looking north, answer the road.

Bai Fenghai threw the last piece of bread to Beiwang.

"Put the grass down and go back in the circle." Bai Fenghai commanded.

Beiwang put his backpack close to it, then retreated into the circle, gobbling down the bread.

After Bai Fenghai fell asleep while looking north, he prayed to the moon again, but because the sky was almost dawning, there was not as much silver powder as last time.

The next day, Bai Fenghai and Beiwang rode a horse together and galloped towards the east.

The two of them only let the horses rest twice and hurried all the way to the sun.

"Didn't we go up the mountain, how did we go east?" Beiwang sat on a horse for the first time and looked a little scared.

"I need to go to Beiwang Village to find out what's going on." Bai Fenghai said and sped up his horse's speed again.

"No, grandma said I can't go back to the village." Beiwang struggled on horseback, Bai Fenghai couldn't hold down the child, so he could only stop the horse.

"I'm cursed, I'm going to provoke youkai, and I'm going to get in trouble if I go back to the village." Beiwang jumped off his horse and shouted.

Bai Fenghai squinted at the boy, wondering where the troublesome boy came from. But when I think about it, the boy also makes sense, and he was negligent.

"We can't go up the mountain directly, it's steep, we can't go up here." Bai Fenghai also jumped off the horse and said.

"And how do you get up?" Beiwang asked.

"I've heard from the robbers that the mountains to the east are gentle, and some people have crossed the Beiwang Mountains from there to the north." Bai Fenghai led the horse aside to rest, "But the forest in the east is not just entered, there is a group of forest people living there..."

Bai Fenghai found that Beiwang didn't pay attention to him at all, but stared behind him dumbfounded.

Bai Fenghai turned around and found that Beiwang Village, which was less than five miles behind him, was gradually surrounded by a thick fog.

"Is this an enchantment?" Beiwang walked behind Bai Fenghai and asked.

"Yes." This is indeed an enchantment, which means that the boy behind him is not lying, Bai Fenghai took a deep breath and recognized the current situation.

The fog cleared, and the original village vanished, leaving behind a vast expanse of verdant grassland.

Beiwang suddenly ran in the direction of the village, and Bai Fenghai ran over, whistling to let the horse follow.

Beiwang ran all the way until he tripped over a stone and shoveled it on the ground.

Bai Fenghai pulled Beiwang up.

"Why is there a grave here?" Bai Fenghai muttered.

I saw the wooden sign in front of the grave engraved with crooked words - the tomb of the old pharmacist.

"This is my master," Beiwang said, "how could it be... Obviously I left a book to travel a few days ago..."Beiwang whispered.

Bai Fenghai could see the importance of the people in this tomb to Beiwang, and he didn't say much.

Bai Fenghai led the horse to a short distance and sat down, letting Beiwang be alone with the people in the tomb.

Bai Fenghai could feel that the barrier guarding Beiwang Village was not a simple rune array.

"I didn't expect you to do this." Bai Fenghai sighed, "Okay, then I'll do what you tell you again." ”

Beiwang also seemed to finish mourning the people in the grave and stood up.

Bai Fenghai suddenly felt a murderous aura behind him, drew his sword and turned around to see a tiger twice his size, with a murderous look on his face.

However, the tiger did not come towards the Baifeng Sea, and its eyes only stared north from beginning to end.

The tiger leapt up and pounced to the north.

Bai Fenghai also followed.

At this moment, the north-looking fireflies shone again.

Bai Fenghai was a little faster, blocking in front of Beiwang.

The tiger lowered its body and waited for an opportunity to move.

"I'll get it out of the way, and you go horsebacking." Bai Fenghai said to Beiwang.

Beiwang pressed Bai Fenghai's hand holding the sword.

"No, this tiger won't hurt us." "He'll go up the mountain with us." ”

"Can you communicate with youkai?" Bai Fenghai couldn't believe it.

Since ancient times, there has been no record of anyone who has ever communicated with a monster, and it is speculated in the classics that the monster disdains to communicate with mortals, and even regards mortals as ants.

Beiwang nodded at Bai Fenghai.

The boy in front of Bai Fenghai will rewrite the future of the demon slayer.
