Verse 208

"I've seen it from Xuan Feng, it's equivalent to a spirit stone." Meng Congyi remembered, "But why aren't there many people here digging for sand?" Why didn't anyone come to take the spirit stone given for free? ”

She originally wanted to get an answer from Zhao Ning, but she didn't want to, at this moment, the tide surged up, and the old demon was stunned, and he actually abandoned the spiritual sand in his hand and fled to a high place, but he was already old, and his movements were too slow, and he hadn't walked out of the distance of two or three feet, only to see a shadow in the sea rushing up.

It was a tiny tentacle, covered with teeth, and it was like a whip rushing towards the old Stygian.

Seeing that he was about to pounce on the old demon, he was so frightened that he sat down on the soft sand, but there was no more, and he closed his eyes directly, as if waiting for death to come. Zhao Ning's fingertip flashed with spiritual light, and very quickly, the thin tentacle was cut off, and the tentacle fell on the beach, but it suddenly shrank to only half a foot long, and a cloud of black gas came out of it, and then it was rushed by the spiritual light, completely dissipated.

Zhao Ning did not stop there, she put her fingers together, presented the sword trick, the moon sword suddenly appeared, under the sword trick, suddenly rushed into the sea water, as if she heard a scream, but saw that there was ink-like dirt in the waves, and black bubbles bubbled upwards.

The old demon didn't feel the imaginary pain, and opened his eyes in surprise, only to see that the Moon Sword had cleared all the black qi that had overflowed, and instead flew back to Zhao Ning.

"Zhao Ning, what is this, is their blood black?" Meng Congyi looked a little timid.

"This is the Netherworld, and there are still remnants of the demonic energy of the Western Pole Demon Desolation, although they cannot affect the underworld, they will have an impact on living beings. The creatures on the seashore were distorted in the demonic energy, forming a monster that was not like a four. And they may wash ashore at any time with the waves, so the seaside of the Netherworld is very dangerous. ”

Meng Congyi hurriedly nodded.

At this time, the old demon dragged a sand bag and walked tremblingly with an old cane, he was very surprised to see Zhao Ning and the two, but quickly covered it up, and bowed to Zhao Ning very thoughtfully.

"Thank you fairies for saving me."

"The old man is polite, it's just a gesture."

The old demon didn't help but get up, "The immortals who can come from the outer seas are all strong and want to worship." ”

Zhao Ning saw that he had bowed once, so he helped him up and asked, "Uncle, there is still the Five Elements Spirit Sand at home, I want to exchange some of it." ”

The old demon was pleasantly surprised, "Of course, of course. Fairy, come with me. ”

Zhao Ning and Meng Congyi followed behind the old man, and Zhao Ning said, "What do you call the old man?" ”

"The old man's name is Chao Zuo, and the two fairies are calling at will, just fine." Chao Zuo is not fast with crutches.

Zhao Ning and Meng Congyi followed slowly, Meng Congyi kept looking at the surrounding situation, and really didn't see any colors other than dark purple.

It didn't take long for them to come across a dilapidated house, and when the courtyard door was gently pushed, they could clearly hear the creaking of the fence, as if it would be toppled down immediately if it was heavier.

Standing in the courtyard and looking at the house closer, it can no longer be said to be dilapidated, it can even be said to be half-ruined, there are no lights or fireworks in the house, and there are no other demons coming out to pick it up.

Zhao Ning asked, "Is it only the old man who lives here?" ”

"Yes. I used to live in the town, and there was no news about my children going to Da Youguo for many years, and after my wife died, I moved here, close to the sea, so that I could get more five elements of spiritual sand and save some spiritual stones. ”

It looks like it's been a long time since it was moved, and the roof tiles of the dilapidated house are a little scattered, with a lot of old leaves and messy things piled up on it, and you can even see some holes with a clear eye, and the mud walls are uneven and airy on all sides.

"To the Great Hidden Country?"

"The Great Youguo is thousands of miles away from here, and I can't go there. Just save, save. "I still have anticipation in my heart that I know it's impossible, but I still can't help it.

The Great Netherworld is the only country in the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, there is no national capital, and there is no country lord, it is a country formed by several mountains, and the jurisdiction of the three mountains covers the vast majority of the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, the Netherworld Demons believe in the gods in the mountains, but no one has ever seen the appearance of the real gods.

In the center surrounded by three mountains is the location of the ancient legend of the hidden capital, the place of the reincarnation of life and death controlled by Hou Tu Niang, but before the great destruction, with the death of Hou Tu Niangniang, the secluded capital also disappeared in the netherworld, and the Huangquan Lechuan has long ceased to exist.

The broken house didn't need to be locked at all, Chao Zuo pushed it open, Meng Congyi followed behind, curious about how to live in such a house, but as soon as the door opened, he subconsciously covered his nose, and the damp and rotten mildew inside came to his face, almost making people faint.

Meng Congyi realized that his movements might not be very good, and hurriedly put down his hand, and then Chao Zuo looked back, "Fairy, wait outside for a while, the house is dirty, and the old man doesn't have the strength to tidy up, so I'll drag the Five Elements Spirit Sand out immediately." ”

"Oh, okay, don't worry, you can do it slowly." Meng Congyi reassured.

turned to Zhao Ning's side, and saw that the old man had already walked in, she whispered to Zhao Ning, "This old man is so incapacitated, but he is panning for sand on such a dangerous beach, isn't he afraid of those distorted sea monsters?" If you encounter danger, as we just saw, you can't hide from it. ”

She leaned in again, "Could there be a problem?" ”

"No, it won't." Zhao Ning had already observed this old demon for a long time, his body functions had completely become old, and his breath was also glowing with some black spots, and there were no traces of cultivation on his body, this state was not disguised at all, "Perhaps, every time he goes to the sand, he exchanges his life." ”

Meng Congyi's eyes widened and he covered his mouth with both hands to keep himself from being shocked and making a sound.

Zhao Ning raised his eyes to look at the dilapidated house, raised his hand, and raised a spiritual light from his fingertips, which floated to the roof leisurely, under Zhao Ning's control, all the tiles returned to their own places, and all the debris disappeared, and then the spiritual light fell from the roof, rotating around the house one by one, and then the mold spots and collapses on the entire wall disappeared.

Chao Zuo dragged a small sack out of the house at this time, he turned his back to look into the house, and a few spiritual lights also strung into the house, and the rot on the beams and pillars was also removed, and even the mildew in the house was damp and dissipated, he looked at all this in surprise, and then was surprised to realize that there were changes outside the house.

The dilapidated house was still very old, but at least it was no longer so dilapidated and looked like it was habitable.

Chao's left lip turned around tremblingly, the little aura on Zhao Ning's fingertips had disappeared, and Meng Congyi was looking at him with a smile.

"Thank you, fairy." Chao Zuo knelt down and bowed to Meng Congyi.

Meng Congyi smiled and hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not me, it's not me, you're mistaken." ”

Zhao Ning didn't make a sound, Chao Zuo was helped up by Meng Congyi, and he sighed with emotion, "The fairy is too humble." ”

Then he bowed down and asked Zhao Ning, "This fairy, do you still want the Five Elements Spirit Sand?" The old man's five elements of spiritual sand were not carefully scooped up, and there was still a lot of fine sand mixed in it. ”

He opened the pocket, and Meng Congyi saw that the five elements of spiritual sand and fine sand in the bag accounted for about half of each.

"This ...... Do you still want to recruit condensation? ”

Zhao Ning didn't look at it, and directly gave the old man about the equivalent of such a bag of spirit stones, and there were not many of them, less than a hundred.

Chao Zuo was holding the spirit stone bag, he hadn't seen so many spirit stones for a while, and he was a little trembling.

Zhao Ning waved his hand, received the Five Elements Spirit Sand into the storage bag, shouted Meng Congyi, and then said goodbye to Chao Zuo.

Chao Zuo didn't seem to have reacted yet, but Zhao Ning didn't wait, and walked directly with Meng from the outside of the courtyard.

The two of them had only taken a few steps out of the courtyard, and Chao Zuo suddenly shouted twice, "Fairy, fairy, wait a minute, the old man has something to tell you." ”

He stepped up as soon as he could, looking at him, "What else?" ”

"The two fairies had better not walk directly in the town like this." But I don't want Chao Zuo to start with a sentence of dissuasion, which makes people a little confused, and even suspects that the demon who got this netherworld is the same as the demon race, do you want to eat humans or be hostile to the human race?

But he heard Chao Zuo say, "Recently, something has happened in the Great Netherworld, and some people in the Netherworld are not welcome to the human race. ”

"What's wrong?" Meng Congyi was surprised.

But Chao Zuo also shook his head, "It is the explanation sent by the Great Netherworld to the entire Netherworld, and all the underworld demons will drive them away as much as possible when they see the human race. I also heard it in the town for the Five Elements Spirit Sand, but I didn't hear the specifics. ”

"Thank you for the reminder."

"No, the two fairies are buying spiritual sand and repairing the house, and the old man is grateful." He leaned on crutches and bowed slightly, "The two fairies should be careful." ”

The two of them left Chao Zuo's house and walked in the mountains and forests, the number of ghosts was not large, and they were rarely seen outside the town or gathering place.

"Zhao Ning, you said what happened, how did you make it as if the human race and the demon were going to oppose each other."

"Not yet." Zhao Ning said, "If we really want to oppose each other, we won't let the human race enter the Netherworld Cultivation Realm. ”

The demons can also be cultivated, and even their cultivation speed is faster than that of the demon race, second only to humans, but they have some more special abilities brought by the demon physique than humans.

This has led to the emergence of many powerful figures in the Netherworld, which are enough to make the Netherworld independent in the entire Kyushu.

"So what are we going to do, don't we go to town?" Meng Congyi said in a tangled manner, it was a pity to come to the Netherworld and see different races not going to their gathering place to see.

Zhao Ning probably thought the same way, "Go, of course you have to go, aren't you going to find the reincarnation of Dahei?" To find him, it is necessary to go to the place where the demons gather. ”

"So how do we hide?"

"The demon is not like the demon clan, you can keenly smell the breath of the demon clan, as long as you transform into the appearance of the demon demon, you don't say that you are a demon yourself, and you don't come into contact with the demon of the high realm, it is easy to hide."

Zhao Ning flipped his palm and handed her a pill bottle, "This is the Illusion Pill." You take it. Then run the exercises, thinking about the appearance of the demon of the underworld. ”

Meng Congyi had never stayed in the cultivation realm, and every time he encountered something in the cultivation realm, he showed a kind of surprise.

She carefully poured out a elixir, which was crystal clear and glowed with turquoise.

She swallowed it in one gulp, ran the exercises, and spent a month on the Wind God Spirit Boat, although the spells were not learned, but the exercises were able to run, and with the operation of the exercises, a hazy green mist appeared on her body, knowing that the green mist would envelop her whole person, and she desperately thought about the appearance of the demon in her mind.

After half a tea time, the green mist disappeared, and Meng Congyi's new appearance appeared, and she became Chao Zuo, Chao Zuo without dark lines.

She opened her eyes and saw that her wrinkled and rough hands almost screamed, and she hurriedly took out the bronze mirror from the storage ring, her storage ring was left to her by the immortals, and the reflection in the bronze mirror was even a little uglier than even when she saw Chao Zuo's appearance.

Meng Congyi was about to cry, she said to Zhao Ning, "I can't accept this appearance, or I won't go, hide in the mountains and forests, you go to the demon town to have a look, and then bring Da Hei to me by the way." ”

Meng Congyi would rather be beautiful than ugly.

"Why did you become Chao Zuo?" On the contrary, Zhao Ning was a little puzzled.

Meng Congyi said, "I've only seen a demon in Chao Zuo, and if I don't change into his appearance, I won't change the rest." ”

Zhao Ning still couldn't figure it out, "Then why don't you just blacken your skin?" ”

Meng Congyi was stunned for a moment, yes, in addition to the characteristics of the underworld pattern and the human race, the skin is darker.

She was almost about to cry stupidly by herself, she looked at herself like this, and cautiously condensed, "If you don't condense, you will give me another grain?" ”

Zhao Ning shook his head, "I only have this one." ”

This only Illusion Pill is still Zhao Ning, I don't know where it came from.

"Huh?" Meng Congyi was about to collapse, but he still barely held back and put away the bronze mirror, "I don't look at it, maybe I can bear it if I don't look at it." ”

But even when you clench your fists, the feeling of chapped skin is real.

She still couldn't hold back, "Then when can I change back?" ”

"Seventy-seven forty-nine days." Zhao Ning is roughly calculated.

"For ...... Why is it so long! Meng Congyi wanted to cry but couldn't.

Because this is the best elixir, it has been passed through in the water against the sky.

Zhao Ning comforted her, "When you get to the demon town, there should be a Shape-Solving Pill, and it will be restored." ”

Meng Congyi's crazy heart finally calmed down a little, "Okay...... All right. ”

Zhao Ning just waited for her to calm down, the ghost cry vine grew a seedling from the palm of her hand, and a drop of dark purple juice dripped from it, and Zhao Ning smeared two lines on Meng Congyi's face, the lines were slightly glowing, and gradually fainted under the eyes, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed to become a dark pattern on the face.

Meng Congyi looked at Zhao Ning, and suddenly a trace of doubt rose, "What about you, Zhao Ning, without the Illusion Pill, how did you become a demon of the underworld." ”

Zhao Ning dispersed the ghost crying vine in his hand, and the cloud silk thousand illusion cloak appeared for a moment, and with a slight flicker, it became the appearance of Lin Ying, no, it should be a blackened forest shadow, and even the two dark lines on his sideburns have been presented.

"This ...... What kind of spell is this? Meng Congyi was amazed, and she made no secret of the project in her eyes.

Zhao Ning stepped forward and walked, "When you have experienced a few years in the cultivation realm, you will gradually have some family background." ”

Meng Congyi caught up with her in small steps, and after she turned into Chao Zuo's appearance, her movements slowed down a little.

"You wait for me," Meng Congyi shouted again, "where are we going?" ”

Zhao Ning paused slightly, "Let's go find Da Hei first." You use the reverse scale to sense the position of the big black. ”

"Okay." Meng Congyi took out the reverse scale, and suddenly she found that the reverse scale had changed differently, and the reverse scale was slightly glowing.

"What does this mean? I remember that it only shone slightly when it was activated for the first time in the Demon King's Mansion that day. Her eyes lit up, "Could it be that the reverse scale senses the big black?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Ning nodded, it is true that only in this situation can there be a millilight.
