The weather was fine, and the grassy cliff tops seemed as if nothing had happened. In the distance, the faint sound of water came from the fairy waterfall, as if it was the sound of water that washed away, making it always quiet here. However, who knows the dangers and fluctuations that lie behind this tranquility?

"Why are you looking for that banshee?"

"Yun Zhong, Lijiang is too far away from here, even if Yun Jin carries us over, it will take more than ten days to go back and forth, I don't want to waste more time because of this matter. ”

"What does this have to do with the fox demon?"

"Don't you know, the nine-tailed fox is very peculiar among the demons, they are especially good at space-time spells, if she can help, we can travel thousands of miles in an instant to Lijiang. ”

"But...... She poisoned you and me, wouldn't it be dangerous for you to look for her like this?"

"Don't worry, I've dealt with her a few times, she didn't poison her out of her intention, and besides, she is not my opponent in terms of spiritual power, so naturally I don't dare to have other ideas. Wait for me in the cabin, and I'll go to her." ”

"Okay...... Then you should be careful. ”

"Hmm. ”

Even so, I think he is still apprehensive.

"Don't worry, Yun Zhong, it'll be fine. ”

——

"Why are you still looking for me?"

As soon as I arrived at the orchard, I heard the voice of the fox demon, and when I turned around, she was already standing behind me.

"My deal with you is not over yet, so naturally I have to come. ”

"Why did you stop you when I could have killed her yesterday?"

The fox demon was obviously a little annoyed by what happened last night.

"The show isn't over yet, so I naturally won't let you take her life. ”

"That's your play! I'm not interested in it now!" the fox demon's expression became even more annoyed, but even so, her beautiful face still showed a bit of playfulness.

I smiled faintly and said, "Yes? Well, if that's the case, you might as well find someone else to trade with you." With the arrogant personality of your nine-tailed fox clan, you naturally won't ask mortals for help, not to mention that Bo Yi and Meng Yunzhong are also masters among mortals, and they are not easy to deal with. Or, do you go to find other demons? You Ruojun has demon water on his body, ordinary demons naturally can't do it, but how easy is it to find a demon with strong spiritual power who is willing to trade with you? Could it be that you have already made up your mind to do it yourself? I am also very strange, it is easy for you to kill her, why do you want to borrow the hand of others? If you have any scruples, then why did you want to kill her yesterday? Therefore, I conclude that you had no intention of killing her yesterday. ”

Speaking of this, the fox demon finally swept away the anger just now, but instead sneered and said, "You are really smart. Yesterday I wasn't trying to kill her, I just wanted to embarrass her. Moreover, the last time I poisoned you, I owe you after all, and I will help you out of the siege, even if it is to pay you back once. ”

"It's not just that, isn't it? When you shot at You Ruojun yesterday, you only used three points of mana, and it wasn't a decision to kill her at all. Moreover, with your cultivation, how can a mortal be able to easily stop you back? Therefore, you are not trying to take her life at all, but to make her frightened and afraid......

"Yes, I just love to see her tortured and suffered...... the fox demon said hatefully, moving bewitchingly beside me as she spoke.

"What else? I've heard that there is a secret technique in mind reading that can snoop into the memories of others, but this secret technique can only be performed when the opponent is weak-willed. In my opinion, you just want to use this secret technique when You Ruojun is weak-willed, but I don't understand what memories she has that you are interested in. ”

The fox demon was a little surprised at first, but immediately regained that smiling expression.

"Well, since you can see it, I don't have to hide it from you. I'm interested in You Ruojun's memory. Originally, she didn't need to go through such a big effort, she was just a mortal, and it was too simple to spy on her mind. But strangely, she somehow sealed a part of her memory, and I couldn't read it. The secret technique you are talking about, called the Dividing Technique, was stolen from the patriarch. It's a pity that you suddenly attacked me, and I didn't succeed. ”

"I remember that there was once a group of nine-tailed fox demons who came to the Gloomy Forest, but my mother thought that the nine-tailed fox demons were too evil, so she didn't take them in. But my mother also told me that the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has always been arrogant, so no Nine-Tailed Fox has ever been close to the Lush Forest since then, and besides, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has very strict clan rules, so wouldn't you risk your life if you steal the secret technique?

"Hehe......" the fox demon suddenly laughed, "What? are you starting to be interested in my secrets? ”

The fox demon brought his face in front of me, and those seductive eyes pierced straight into my eyes.

"Yes, isn't the terms of our deal all the secrets you know? ”

"Since you've guessed a few of them, you can remember that before you kill her, you must leave me a gap so that I can see her memories. When she dies, I will naturally tell you all the secrets. ”

"But now you have to help me go to Lijiang, Yunnan. ”

The fox demon frowned lightly, and said: "Actually, I don't understand, since you have agreed to my deal, why do you go to great lengths to save her? Is it all because of that mortal? I will kindly advise you, among mortals, there is no loyal man, and besides, you are a demon, you will always be a demon, you can't stay with mortals for a long time." Have you forgotten the pain of parting?"

"The Pain of Parting......"

The fox demon had something to say, was she referring to the mortal man who had been nice to me?

"Don't guess, when you complete the deal, you'll know everything. Take that mortal to the Immortal Waterfall, I'll take you to Lijiang, I want to see how the three of you will continue to play this play. ”

Indeed, why bother to guess, even if she knew, what if she knew? Between me and Meng Yunzhong, so many promises have been written, and he doesn't mind that I am a demon, but in just a few decades, we will definitely be able to go on well. Parting, although it is painful, but it seems to be far away, why bother with everything that is unpredictable in the future?

After answering the fox demon, I went back to the wooden house.

Meng Yunzhong has been waiting for me in the corridor because he is worried, presumably the scene of my meeting with the fox demon, he also sees it in his eyes, but he can't hear our conversation.

She agreed. ”

I looked at him and said lightly. He didn't speak, just looked at me as if he had many questions, but he still didn't ask.

"Yun Zhong, if I were a mortal woman, who would you choose to leave first in our old age?"

Although I told myself not to speculate, the "parting" that the fox demon said still lingered in my heart.

"Yinluo...... If we can, let's leave together...... I don't want any of us to be separated...... It's a pity that in this life, I can only let you endure the torment alone. However, since you are a demon, you must have lived a long time, and maybe after many years, you will forget about me. ”

"No...... I won't forget......"

I leaned gently into him, and my heart churned. I touched the purple crystal around my neck. Yes, I won't forget, just as I won't forget the man who once promised me a ring.

"Yun Zhong, let's go to the Immortal Waterfall. ”

By the time we arrived at the Immortal Waterfall, the fox demon was already smiling at us. She twisted her slender waist and paced to Meng Yunzhong's side.

"Yo...... Yinluo really didn't see the wrong person, this appearance, even I couldn't help but be moved when I saw it!"

I glanced at her, and she took a look back.

"Don't worry, I won't rob you. "She is still unrelenting and unrelenting.

Meng Yunzhong, on the other hand, had a vigilant look, but he was not panicked.

"Need my help casting spells?"

The fox demon smiled evilly again and said, "Don't do it, you just have to hug each other." ”

I also ignored it, just grabbed Meng Yunzhong's hand and nodded to the fox demon.

The fox demon understood, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly. She lifted one foot lightly and spun in circles. In a trance, there seemed to be wisps of ribbons around her, and she seemed to be dancing around her. It's just that on the tips of her feet close to the ground, a circle of light smoke gradually grows. She stopped in place, her eyes slightly closed, silently chanting the incantation, I only felt a stream of air began to encircle me and Meng Yunzhong, although this air flow was not strong, but it seemed to be able to firmly encircle people in it. Looking at it again, everything around us became more and more blurred, until we were completely surrounded by the light smoke drawn by the fox demon, and in this chaos, we seemed to be disconnected from time and space, and even our feet became nothing.

In the blink of an eye, the fox demon smiled at us, raised his feet slowly touched the ground, and at the same time, the light smoke around us gradually dissipated, and when the line of sight was clear, the fairy waterfall was gone, and we were now in a strange place surrounded by trees.

"How?

The fox demon looked at Meng Yunzhong and asked with pretended pity. Meng Yunzhong turned his face sideways, ignoring her hair at all.

"Hmph, it's another person who doesn't know good people's hearts. The fox demon said stupidly, "Through this forest, you can reach Yifeng Valley." The immortals in the valley have set up an enchantment, and they can't use space-time spells, so I can only send you here. When you're done, I'll come and pick you up. ”

As he spoke, the fox demon's figure had already dispersed and disappeared into the air.

"Yinluo, let's go. ”

"I'll take you the rest of the way. ”

As I spoke, I activated my spiritual power and took Meng Yunzhong off the ground.

After a while, there was a vast expanse of red in front of me, and on the edge of the red, it was surrounded by mountains on three sides. Strange to say, this red maple forest is extremely dazzling, and it seems to have been deliberately placed in this valley, the surrounding green onion has not affected its integrity in the slightest, and on the surrounding mountains, there are no other maple trees, it is indeed a place of aura.

"Presumably, this is Yifeng Valley. ”

Meng Yunzhong and I landed in the maple forest, surrounded by this unusual beauty. As soon as I touched the ground, I felt a breath of spiritual energy soaking through my whole body from the soles of my feet. Although there is no wind, the maple leaves in this maple forest can naturally swing slightly. What's even more peculiar is that it is only early summer, but the maple trees in this forest are already bright red like fire, and it seems that they will not wither, there is not a single fallen leaf on the ground, only a thin layer of grass mat, together with a red maple leaf, no matter where you look at it, it looks like a path to fairyland. The maple trees are layered on top of each other, and there is no end in sight, only the sound of gurgling water can be heard, but they don't know where they come from, as if they have deliberately set up a game, so that once they enter this valley, they don't want to go out.

"The scenery here is really beautiful and full of aura. ”

For a while, I was really fascinated by this scene. If it is said that Zhuoyun Xiaozhu is also a well-laid out immortal residence, but compared to here, there is a lot less ostentatious beauty, as long as you look at it, you can never forget it.

But just when I was intoxicated, I felt a commotion, a strong sense of oppression enveloping me. I immediately came back to my senses, but I looked around carefully, but there were no other visions, but this sense of oppression became stronger and stronger, and finally a strong light suddenly gathered in the sky above the maple forest, illuminating everything around me and Meng Yunzhong brightly and dazzlingly, could it be......

Just as I thought, a lightning-sharp sword fell from the sky and plunged into the ground in front of me.

But why is that? I didn't chant a spell to summon it! Could it be that the aura of this place would make the Sword of Melting sense?

Meng Yunzhong pulled me back and was really taken aback. On the one hand, it was because of this sudden change, and on the other hand, it was also because of the sword of Cangrong. As a person who practiced swords, he would naturally be shocked when he saw such a divine weapon.

He was about to reach out and pull out the sword of Melting that was stuck in the ground, but I hurriedly stopped him. This is not an ordinary mortal sword, it is impossible for mortals to hold it, if you forcibly take it, you are afraid that you will be injured by the backlash.

"Yun Zhong can't! You can't hold the Sword of Cangrong!"

"The Sword of Harmony...... Is this also a treasure in the Maple Forest?"

"No, this is the artifact I told you to use to suppress demon poison. I wear it invisibly around me every day, but I don't know how it can be like this at the moment......"

"Artifact...... Sure enough, it is not comparable to ordinary swords. ”

Meng Yunzhong looked at the Cangrong Sword in awe and looked at it carefully.

"Strange, why can't I cast a changeling spell on it?"

I tried it a few times, but I found that my spiritual power had failed in it, as if it had manifested on its own, could there be some reason?
