Chapter 7 Victory and Defeat
Jin Xiuyang waved his arms, wrapped the rope firmly around the ten-meter-high thick branch, grasped the rope with both hands, and the whole person walked on the main trunk of the towering ancient tree seven or eight meters thick, and walked out of this bare area in the blink of an eye, and then there were branches and leaves blocking it, although this method was labor-saving, but it would definitely not work here, Jin Xiuyang did not dare to have any delay, and began to use the original method again, jumping up, holding the branch with both hands, the body rotated and took off, and locked the next one, In the past, she would climb the trunk of the tree to catch a few breaths at this time, but now she doesn't know how high Zuo Fei has reached, so she can't write a letter for a moment, and continues to take advantage of the inertia of this forward rush to rotate her body to take off to grab the next one. It's like a figure shifting back and forth on parallel bars.
"Boss, look at Xiuyang coming up!"
Cheng Kui and the others were far away from the towering ancient trees, and they could only see the situation of the two above from a distance of 100 meters, only to see a shadow constantly flashing upward, shortening the distance between them and Zuo Fei every time.
"It's really up, Xiuyang, you have to come on!" When Cheng Kui saw that figure, he almost cried with joy, clenched his fists, and kept shouting and cheering for her in his heart.
Jin Xiuyang did ten rounds in one breath before stopping on a branch, sweat soaked her clothes, her arms seemed to be filled with lead, and the feeling of swelling and pain made her grin, especially the small hands, the blood bubbles that were grinding up hurt like a heart. However, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and now she finally saw Zuo Fei's figure.
"You didn't even get killed?" Zuo Fei saw that the crane nest was within reach, and suddenly found Jin Xiuyang, his eyes widened as if he had bumped into a ghost in the daytime, and said in disbelief.
"The revenge has not been avenged, how dare I take the first step? I'll send you to Hades today! Jin Xiuyang licked the blood in the palm of his hand, and a fierce expression flashed on his whole little face, and his bloodthirsty eyes made people shudder. didn't give Zuo Fei any chance to react, and stood on the same branch with him in one go.
Approaching the latter, he said coldly: "Zuo Fei, right?" I wonder if falling from here will turn people into mud? ”
Zuo Fei was still an eight or nine-year-old child, he had ever seen this kind of look, he broke the defense in an instant, almost did not make any resistance, turned around and jumped towards the branch below, it was at this moment that Jin Xiuyang firmly grasped the crane nest above his head in his hand.
When Zuo Fei looked up with palpitations, he just had a full view of this scene.
Jin Xiuyang looked at the three golden crane eggs in her hand, the lines on them were staggered, and the whole eggshell was beating slightly, it seemed that the young cranes inside should be about to break out of the shell in the next two days, to her surprise, two of the golden eggs had black veins on them, only the smaller one turned out to be purple!
When Zuo Fei came to his senses and realized that he had been deceived, he almost blew up his lungs, and his speech was not bad.
"You...... How dare you make such a mockery of me! ”
"What nonsense? I won this bet! Jin Xiuyang shook his bloody fist, "If you have the guts, you can come and grab it!" Let's see if I can kick you off this towering tree! ”
Zuo Fei clenched his fists, but the scene just now was like a nightmare, deeply planted in his heart and lingered. Jin Xiuyang stood there, looking like a little girl, more like a witch, so he couldn't raise the slightest courage to fight.
Jin Xiuyang saw that the latter had not moved for a long time, so he stopped talking nonsense, turned around and jumped towards the branches below, and disappeared after a few flashes.
Under the towering ancient tree, Cheng Kui's seven people have been guarding here since the moment they saw Jin Xiuyang get the crane eggs, for fear that Wang Mang and the others would not keep their promises and take advantage of their weakness to snatch the eggs.
"Xiuyang, show us!"
Seeing Jin Xiuyang returning with the crane's nest, Cheng Kui and the others were overjoyed and surrounded her like a bee.
"Wow, that's big!"
"yes, hee-hee, it's big!"
"Wow, it's really golden, and the veins on it are so complicated!"
"Yes, it's like the talisman seal in the Eight Immortals Temple in the town!"
As if they had discovered a new world, they were full of praise for the three golden eggs!
"Hey, don't drool, this egg can't be eaten, Cheng Kui, what you said, as long as I can bring it back to the crane nest, let me pick the three crane eggs first, does it count?" Jin Xiuyang saw that everyone's eyes were shining, and hurriedly hid the crane nest in his hand behind his back, put on a small face, and asked stiffly.
Cheng Kui scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, ashamed of his gaffe, and knocked on the six people who had also never seen the world, and said seriously: "This is natural, Xiuyang, you choose first." ”
"That's pretty much it, I'll just want this one of the smallest, and I'll give you the remaining two!" Jin Xiuyang pursed his mouth in satisfaction, gently put the purple crane eggs into the lace satchel he carried, and handed the other two to Cheng Kui.
The crane nest was discovered by Cheng Kui, and he got one as a matter of course, but the rest didn't know how to distribute it.
Six heads with only one crane egg, who should it be given to? It's a big problem. Once the distribution is uneven, there will be a gap brother split, and a big fight may be cheap Wang Mang and others, after all, who doesn't want to have such a popular demon beast to guard the home and protect the courtyard in the near future.
Cheng Kui frowned, he didn't know what decision to make, the palms and backs of his hands were all brothers, and it was wrong to give it to anyone.
Jin Xiuyang looked at the six people and looked at the only remaining crane egg, and then looked at Cheng Kui and sighed angrily: "Hey, I said that you boys are really troublesome, rock-paper-scissors is fine, whoever wins will be whom, and if you lose, you can't complain about others!" ”
Cheng Kui felt that this was a good way to ask for the consent of a few people, and he carried it out, but he didn't expect that in the end, it was the thin monkey who won the last crane egg. If you don't get it, you're naturally a little depressed.
"You boys are really strange, what is there when you didn't get the crane eggs this time, it's a big deal to ask Cheng Kui to help you get a better one next time, now you are all angry, our gambling contract has not been implemented yet, Cheng Kui, don't you say?"
Cheng Kui was suddenly named, and he was stunned for a moment: "Ah, yes!" Don't be discouraged, what's the pity of the crane eggs of a mere demon beast, when I enter the Xingyue Sect, I promise to get each of you a more martial demon beast, no, it's a divine beast to come and take care of the home! ”
Although Cheng Kui said so, he was actually panicked in his heart, if the demon beast was so simple and easy to obtain, the Eight Immortals Town was backed by the Dark Night Forest, wouldn't every household already have a demon beast to guard the door, this female crane laid eggs at such an edge of the Dark Night Forest for thousands of years, as for the depths of the forest, high-level demon beasts were rampant, and who dared to enter the Eight Immortals Town.
