Chapter Ninety-Four: Collecting the Snake

Seeing that the beetle snake was motionless and was ready to be killed, Xu Huaigu felt a little unbearable in his heart for no reason.

But this beetle snake had killed so many soldiers before, and several monks had also lost their lives under its hands, if it hadn't killed it, how could it be worthy of those who died?

Xu Huaigu was ruthless in his heart, and the flying sword was straight into its head in the blink of an eye. Fan Xuan sighed softly and passed into Xu Huaigu's ears.

So the tip of the flying sword just touched the scales of the beetle snake, and it suddenly stopped abruptly, and it didn't stab down after all.

Seeing this scene, everyone looked at Xu Huaigu in amazement. Xu Huaigu let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand and called the flying sword back, but did not kill it.

Wei Caiyi's brows were twisted into a rope, and he said unhappily: "What? This can't be a killer? You're a monk too, and you don't even have this hard heart? I wonder how you got to where you are today? Xu Huaigu lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "This beetle snake is not bad at heart, and it knows how to advance and retreat." The demon clan doesn't want it, maybe it can change its mind and be willing to work for our human race. Wei Caiyi said coldly: "It has killed so many people, who will accept it?" Even if it wants to, I'm afraid that no one will give it this chance, and I think you are just a woman's kindness. Then she said, "Well, since I just said that this beetle snake is at your disposal, I don't care." Whether you release or kill, it's up to you. There is only one thing, if you don't kill it, naturally don't want to change into the immortal robe from me. Xu Huaigu hesitated.

Wei Caiyi's face was cloudy, obviously dissatisfied with Xu Huaigu's attitude, but Xu Huaigu had his own plans.

He thought for a while, and suddenly asked Fan Xuan, "What do you think?" What should I do? Xu Huaigu would ask her opinion?

Fan Xuan was startled for a moment, and then frowned and said, "This beetle snake is actually not low, and his mind is stronger than that of ordinary demon clans. It's just that it's true that as Senior Wei said, it has too many human lives on its hands, and if you don't kill it, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to calm people's hearts. ”

"But it almost killed you just now." Fan Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm just telling the truth." Xu Huaigu turned his head to look at the beetle snake, only to see that it found that Xu Huaigu had not killed it, and at this time he also opened his eyes and looked at him from a distance, his eyes were complicated, and his emotions were difficult to understand.

Reading the book, Xu Huaigu fought with it several times, but he hadn't looked at it carefully before, so he had time to read it seriously.

But I saw that the snake had a pair of light red eyes, like a maple leaf in early autumn, hazy red. Like all snakes, its pupils were also a pair of beautiful prismatic pupils, which made Xu Huaigu can't help but think of that person.

She also has beautiful prismatic pupils, but they are emerald green, which is the most beautiful pair of eyes Xu Huaigu has ever seen.

He became more and more compassionate. Xu Huaigu stood on the flying sword from afar and asked the beetle snake, "Let me ask you, are you willing to submit to my human race?" The beetle snake seemed to be unexpected, and was stunned for a long time, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

Xu Huaigu asked again, and the beetle snake finally spoke again: "How to return to obedience?" Is it because I can go back to the battlefield and kill my own people for your Terrans? Xu Huaigu shook his head and said, "You follow me, just do it." If you want to go to war, I won't stop you, and if you can't, I won't force it. The snake hesitated, and after a while, it asked, "What if I don't agree?" Are you going to kill me right away? Xu Huaigu said: "I won't kill you, the world is big, you can go wherever you want." The beetle laughed self-deprecatingly, lowered its head and said to himself: "Heaven and earth are big, heaven and earth are big...... Though the heavens and the earth are great, and my people do not want me, where shall I go? Xu Huaigu didn't speak, just looked at it directly, and Fan Xuan also looked at Xu Huaigu silently.

The beetle snake lowered its head and muttered for a long time, finally raised its head, looked at Xu Huaigu, and said, "Since you are willing to spare my life, then I will go with you." I have only one request, you can't force me to kill my people. Reading the book, Xu Huaigu nodded, and said loudly: "Yes, I promise you." The beetle snake hesitated and slowly walked towards Xu Huaigu's feet, Xu Huaigu's sword fell to the ground, put away the sword and asked, "Will you become humanoid?" The beetle nodded, and its massive body changed into a human form.

But he saw that it was a boy who was only half a man tall, standing barefoot, with his hair scattered, and his face was covered.

He was dressed in gray cloth, and was about twelve or thirteen years old. Because of the previous battle with Xu Huaigu, the demon body was injured too much, and although he changed into a human form at this time, he was also covered in blood, which was really unbearable to show in such a child's appearance.

Rao is Xu Huaigu, and he was also taken aback when he saw that the human form of the beetle snake was just a boy. It's true that I didn't expect such a huge beetle snake with such a demon body, but it's just an underage child.

Xu Huaigu asked him, "How old are you this year?" The snake replied, "I am only eighty-seven years old." We beetle snakes have a lifespan of up to 500 years, and 120 years before we reach adulthood, so I am considered very young. ”

"Are you a clan? Mean, you're not the only one in the Demon Domain? ”

"Yes. There are many demon clans of all kinds in the demon domain, forming various ethnic groups, and some big clans even have hundreds of thousands of people. Like my beetle snake clan, it is the bloodline left over from ancient times, and now it is weak, and the clan is only a few hundred, so the gluttony dares not to take me in his eyes. If our snake clan is still strong, how dare he do this? Anyway, you have to ask our patriarch's face first. Speaking of this, the beetle snake couldn't help but grit its teeth, obviously with a little hatred.

Xu Huaigu nodded and said, "In the future, if you follow me, there are a few principles that must be said in advance, otherwise I won't be able to keep you." If you can agree, stay, if you feel that I am bound to you and make your heart unhappy, you have time to leave now. The beetle snake thought for a long time with a solemn expression, and said: "I used to serve gluttony, but now he has abandoned me, not only did you kill me, but also gave me the last dignity, if I don't understand this, I don't deserve the praise of the great monk." You just say it's what it is. Xu Huaigu stretched out three fingers and said with a serious expression: "I only have three rules. First, no one should be harmed; second, it is not allowed to show the demon body at will; Third, since you are in the Middle Domain, you must abide by the rules of the human race. I will teach you the etiquette of the human race, and you should learn it with an open mind. The beetle snake thought for a moment and said, "I can promise you the first two, and the last one, I can only say try as much as possible, and I can't guarantee that I will learn." When Xu Huaigu saw him say this, he secretly said in his heart that he was down-to-earth, so he smiled and said, "Then it can be regarded as a promise." The beetle snake was expressionless and nodded solemnly.

Xu Huaigu looked at Wei Caiyi, who was still standing in the air, and wanted to salute and thank him, but Fan Xuan was still lying in his arms, and it was difficult to salute, so he had to bow down and thank him: "The grace of the seniors to save their lives, the younger generations will remember it in their hearts and never forget it until they die." Because the younger generation saw that this snake had a good heart and could still be carved, he left him alive and studied with the younger generation, and it is unknown whether he will grow in the future. I know that the seniors are unhappy, but this is the juniors' own insistence, and the responsibility is borne by the juniors alone! Please also seniors Haihan! Wei Caiyi landed on the ground, stood in front of Xu Huaigu, and said with a cold face: "Okay!" Since you said that the responsibility is on your own, I will not persuade you any more. I just hope you don't regret it! Xu Huaigu lowered his head and said softly: "What the juniors did by themselves, I don't regret it." Wei Caiyi took one last look at Xu Huaigu, snorted coldly, and then flicked her sleeves, the breeze blew, and when Xu Huaigu looked up again, she had disappeared.

Xu Huaigu stared in the direction of Wei Caiyi for a long time. Seeing that the turmoil had subsided, the rest of the monks in the mountains and forests walked out of the forest one after another, and Xu Huaigu also walked in their direction.

Yin Zishi was the first to walk quickly in front of Xu Huaigu, glanced at the beetle snake behind him, frowned and shook his head, "Brother Xu is confused." The eyes of the other monks who looked at Xu Huaigu also changed.

Some people have strange eyes, some people have playful eyes, and some people have eyes full of suspicion, in short, they don't look at a great sword cultivator who sacrifices his life to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

Xu Huaigu didn't pay much attention to those eyes, and just asked Yin Zishi: "Do you also think what I did was wrong?" Yin Zishi said helplessly: "Is it right to do it, and put it second." First of all, if you leave this beetle snake by your side, what will the people around you think of you? If it is spread by someone with a heart, what will happen to Brother Xu's reputation? Xu Huaigu smiled and said, "If you are worried about these in your heart, then you don't need to." I, Xu Huaigu, stand alone in the world, acting only to ask my own heart, and it doesn't matter what others think. Yin Zishi had no choice but to say, "Okay then." Senior Wei also said before that this beetle snake was handed over to Brother Xu, and he didn't even care about her, so I couldn't control it. Xu Huaigu glanced at the monks beside him, and then looked around at the mountains and forests, only to see the devastation of the living creatures, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said: "At this time, it is almost dusk, General Chu, they should have fled to a safe place, right?" Yin Zishi said worriedly: "I'm afraid it's hard to say." We just have to fight with a few big demons here, and those little demons are chasing General Chu and the rest of the soldiers to the forest, and the victory or defeat is not certain. Xu Huaigu was also worried in his heart, and was about to lead a group of monks to look for Chu Xiuyang, but he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the forest over there, and suddenly his spirits lifted up, and he hurriedly said: "It's cavalry!" Everyone looked towards the place where the sound of horses' hooves came, and before they could see the horses, they heard a female voice shouting anxiously from afar: "Xu Huaigu! Xu Huaigu! That voice was the most familiar, not only Xu Huaigu, but Yin Zishi also knew that it was Yu Qin who was coming.

It turned out that Yu Qin was originally guarding Tang Lin Pass, but since Chu Xiuyang told Xu Huaigu in advance that Tang Lin Pass was going to be used as a bait in Lu Zijin's plan, and the road to the north would be extremely dangerous, Xu Huaigu was worried that something would happen to Yu Qin, so he randomly found a reason and sent her to Lu Zijin's side for a while.

Originally, according to Lu Zijin's order, in order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, Tanglin Pass was not allowed to enter and exit, but after all, this was Xu Huaigu's concern, and Chu Xiuyang did not stop it.

As for Lu Zijin, he also acquiesced to this incident, but it didn't happen. Yu Qin was in Lu Zijin's camp, and she was waiting for Xu Huaigu to come back, but as a result, the demon clan broke through the seven passes one after another, and the soldiers of Tanglin Pass were forced to break through to the north, and Yu Qin was only a little worried.

After all, Xu Huaigu's cultivation and ability, the general demon clan couldn't stop him at all, until this afternoon, there was such a big movement from the south, the earth shook the mountains, and the roar shook the sky, as if the sky was about to fall, Yu Qin was very anxious, and hurriedly rushed over with the rest of the monks.

On the way, I happened to meet the soldiers of the demon clan chasing and killing Chu Xiuyang and Tanglin Pass, so I cleaned it up, and then continued to rush over, so it was a long time late.

As soon as he heard Yu Qin's voice, Xu Huaigu was fine, but Fan Xuan was the most anxious. She hurriedly said: "I feel much better, I should be able to walk, Xu Huaigu, you quickly let me down!" Xu Huaigu suddenly realized that he hurriedly put her down, but Fan Xuan's injury was not good at all, and he almost fell down when his foot dared to touch the ground, but Yin Zishi hurriedly helped her up, so she didn't fall.

A few people here are in chaos, and the horses over there are also running out of the mountains and forests. There were a few people at the head, Xu Huaigu glanced at it, and saw that not only Yu Qin, but also Li Zi, Li Siqing, An Xiaoyu and others were here.

Chu Xiuyang was also in the team, the wounds on his body had been bandaged, and he was looking at him from a distance with an inexplicable expression.
