Chapter 11: The Lotus Sitting
After leading the little donkey, the little donkey is almost not a mount now, and it is completely used to carry the luggage of the two people.
"Eh, Brother Cao, then, what about this catch?"
The sound of fighting on the side was endless, and from time to time Qi Jingchu's coquettish voice could be heard.
"Let her play by herself, let's go first, and when the energy is exhausted, we will naturally be free."
Shen Chong's face turned red, and he said a little shyly: "No, Brother Cao, I mean, will it be too wasteful?" After all, she is only a pulse opener. ”
Cao An's eyes were strange, I couldn't imagine that you kid had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but after following me for a while, his heart was high, and he even used the word 'cai' in the opening of the pulse realm.
"It's okay, just make a few more then."
Shen nodded sharply, led the donkey and followed behind Cao An, and then said: "Brother Cao, our money is spent a little fast, making puppets is too expensive, let's save some in the future." ”
Cao An snorted, he just wanted to disgust Qi Jingchu, not next time, it should be.
After Chiba Town became a ruin, Cao An, who dealt with the aftermath, searched the town and scraped out five hundred taels of silver, not counting the scattered copper coins, which is why there is a current travel entanglement, otherwise, relying on the savings of the original body, Chiba Town may not be able to get out.
There is more than one who is as prescient as Cao An, otherwise, there should be more to loot.
The two pushed forward a few more miles, closer to Dawu Pass, judging from the direction, it was already far away from the original position, Cao An believed that even if Qi Jingchu was not injured after a hard fight, he would not dare to chase after him for the time being, and he could have a quiet night tonight.
"You don't have to unload the things, just move them down and put them on the side, so that the donkey can rest, save the toss back and forth, we will leave early tomorrow morning, and Brother Dawuguan will take you to the city to have a good meal, just meditate and meditate tonight."
Shen Zhong did as he was told, people in this world don't pay much attention to meditation, and meditation is quite rough, or it may just be that Cao An is limited by his own vision and has not yet met the real Gao Wu.
In the previous life, meditation was one of the compulsory courses of Taoist priests, every movement, every breath had already been integrated into Cao An's soul, engraved in the depths of consciousness, the carry-on futon was placed in the selected rest point, the body was naturally closed, the lotus sat down, adjusted the breathing, the eyes were slightly closed, and the temperament was dusty.
Shen Zhong has learned the same, this more than a month of contact, he found that Cao An is more mysterious than in his memory, all of this was attributed to Cao An's mysterious family heritage, followed by learning to meditate for so long, he also barely got started, got the true taste, not to sit sore hands and feet, faintly, he felt that meditation on his own injury wear and tear also alleviated.
The moonlight poured out, but the light behind Cao An's head was more dazzling than the moonlight.
It was a warm golden glow that was incompatible with the moonlight at night, faintly shining with colorful pillars of light, illuminating the whole person like a god.
The little fox strayed into this room, tightened his body, and ran into the bushes, and he didn't catch up for a long time, so he sneakily poked his head out and looked out.
Curious, it felt an unprecedented closeness and natural breath from Cao An, just like the tender grass in the mountains that could make it feel the most comfortable, and then its courage became bigger, little by little, tiptoeing out of the bushes, and it was clear in the moonlight that this was a fox covered in red.
There was not a trace of stray hair, and the pitch-black pupils were as crystal clear as black gems.
It is the Dawuguan Fox Clan, at this time, the same clan is working hard to cultivate, absorbing the heaven, earth and moon, in order to advance as soon as possible, but the little fox is an exception, it can't bear the boredom of cultivation, and secretly ran out, full of curiosity about everything outside, looking at Cao An and the two.
It's seen such a human being, and the elders of the clan will occasionally bring back one or two, but nothing good will end well.
The little fox who tilted his head looked at it for a long time, only to find it interesting, like a learner, according to Cao An's lotus flower sitting style, sitting on the ground, the fox is not a person after all, its movements are slightly stupid and cute, several times because of the poor balance and straight planted on the ground, in this way, it seems to have a competition with Cao An, and this lotus sitting on the same mind.
Tossed back and forth dozens of times, and somehow, this time, it really made it sit firmly.
Learning Cao An's breathing frequency, gradually, sinking into it, I don't know how long it has passed, I saw that the back of its head also gave birth to a round of divine light, unlike Cao An, its divine light is smaller, the divine light is cold and bright moonlight, the edge is pale cyan, with the stability of the divine light, pouring down in the moonlight, the wisps of light like a substance are taken by the divine light, into the body.
Time passed quietly, and the two of them and one beast spent the night peacefully.
When he woke up, Cao An had already packed his things, but in fact, there wasn't much to pack, he hadn't opened it last night, he just put the futon back and washed it briefly.
"Brother Cao, there's a fox here, no, the fox demon."
Cao An already knew about it when the little fox came yesterday, but it didn't hurt anyone, so he ignored it, "Whatever it is, it doesn't hurt anyone, this world is naturally not anyone's, we can stay, they can stay, let's go!" ”
"Oh, here it is!" Shen Chong is the first time to see this kind of squatting fox like a scholar, after a few more glances, it is full of fiery red, and the hair can faintly see a flash of light, obviously a fox's face, but it looks extremely humane, and there is a sense of solemnity.
How could he not see that this fox had achieved three flavors in meditation, and he was even more powerful than himself.
I meditated last night, the first half was fine, and the second half of the sleep died directly, which was more fragrant than sleeping in bed normally, otherwise I wouldn't have known that the fox was coming.
In contrast, the face is a little hot.
can't compare to a human, can't compare to an animal, how can he not be melancholy.
Cao An looked at the solemnity with a drooping face, and smiled slightly, "What are you comparing to a fox, it's not the same species." ”
Not long after the two left, the two foxes that had been hiding between the jungles jumped out, bringing out two fiery red afterimages, and a few ups and downs rushed to the place where Cao An and the two were originally meditating, they all came out of the ancestral land, and the younger generation of the whole clan was busy practicing last night, and in the end, someone found out that the little princess of the clan was missing.
The whole clan was shaken, and after checking the ban, I realized that the little princess actually escaped from the ancestral land while everyone was practicing, in the fox clan, it seems that those who have not yet cultivated into a human form, if there is no master in the clan to take it, it is impossible to get out of the ancestral land, they are the Huoyun Fox Clan, and the Qingqiu Fox Clan, which is different from those demon beasts who live in the mountains and wilderness ignorant and rely on the opportunity to cultivate their wisdom.
They are born with a complete inheritance method flowing in their blood, as long as they stay in the ancestral land and practice with peace of mind, they can remove the beast word in the word demon beast in the future, and become a real big demon, even if they are the least talented, they can also have the opportunity to rely on the ancestral sacred tree and turn into a human form.
But these are all based on the fact that they stay in the forbidden land of the ancestral land with peace of mind, once they leave the ancestral land, in the eyes of outsiders, they are no different from ordinary beasts, at best they are more intelligent.
Even because of the specificity of the bloodline, the appearance is more beautiful and coveted.
A juvenile fox out of the ancestral land, even an ordinary hunter can take its life.
When the two foxes landed, the little fox also woke up, and his smart eyes glanced ahead, but he didn't find Cao An and the two, and realized that it was already dark outside, and his heart suddenly became afraid.
Countless stories of the tragic encounters of the fox clan came to mind, what were skinned, fleshed, knocked to death, and killed with an arrow......
It just thought it was fun last night, so it learned from that man to do it a few times, but who would have thought that one misstep would become a thousand hatreds.
"Princess!"
"Huh?" As soon as the little fox's eyes turned, he saw the two guards beside him, and his pessimism was immediately swept away, and he was overjoyed.
"Are you here to save me? Am I being caught by humans? ”
The two foxes don't know what to say, do you tell it that the humans don't care about you?
At this moment, one of the foxes pulled out a silver hair from under its chest in a very humane way, and a cyan light curtain flowed, and a figure walked out of it.
She leaned down slightly, beckoned, and took the little fox into her arms.
"You broke into a big deal, the patriarch is very angry, wait to be punished when you go back, you run away, make the whole clan jump and look for you everywhere, hey, what happened to you?" The woman asked suspiciously, as if talking to herself, while caressing the little fox's hair.
The little fox told the story of last night, and the beautiful woman raised her head, thoughtful, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a long time, he put the little fox down, took out an object, and the cyan light curtain reappeared.
"You take the princess back first, I still have something to do, and after the matter is over, I will return to the ancestral land."
The two foxes bowed their heads in response, and the little fox, who was talking about something with their teeth and claws, picked it up left and right and rushed into the light curtain.
The demon beast in the transformation stage can already be called a big demon, which is equivalent to the sixth scene among human warriors: the realm of heaven and man, beyond the understanding of ordinary people, and begins to have supernatural means, and to a certain extent, can mobilize the power of heaven and earth for their own use.
The big demon who has really achieved transformation through cultivation, its human body form is not a trick, but a real body, and the transformation process is irreversible, so when you reach this realm, the big demon will face two choices, either turn into a human form, or continue to use the beast body, the fox clan is the race that almost all choose the human form among all the big demons.
