Volume 1 Life and Death Are Inseparable, Dreams of the Past Chapter 54 Scare people
The mountains are high and dense, and the stars are shining above the deep blue sky, like sprinkling countless silver nails, through the dense canopy, squeezing through the gaps and sprinkling thousands of stars, this Yin Fire Mountain Range is really huge, although there is a general direction to find, but Luo Kui and the two of them turned around in the huge mountain for half a night, and then plunged into the forest of the mountain range in the west, looking up at the stars, only to feel that the cold night was deep, and their legs were tired.
Du Heng shook off the indigo cotton cloth burden, turned out the autumn fragrant brocade cushion from it and spread it on the ground, then helped Luo Kui to sit down, and took the black fox fur to cover her body, and said softly: "In the night dew in this mountain, the master will take a rest, and his subordinates will build a fire to warm the master's body." ”
After speaking, his figure flickered in the forest like a gust of wind, and then there was the sound of a sharp sword breaking through the air, and a crackling sound was heard, and when he raised his eyes again, he was already holding a large bundle of dry firewood, and two hares behind him, and came out of the dense forest.
He carefully sorted out an open space and gathered the fire, cooked the rabbit meat, and put it on the fire, and before the flame touched the oil, it jumped up, and the aroma of the meat came into his nose.
The long-necked copper kettle next to the fire gushed out the heat, and the Luokui pot poured water, and handed a lotus petal silver cup with his backhand: "It is not suitable to drink tea late at night, you drink some hot water to drive away the cold." ”
Du Heng took it with both hands, drank it all, turned over the rabbit meat roasted on the fire, and said with a smile: "The master is hungry, that's fine, the master will wait a while." ”
Luo Kui was on the bonfire and sniffed the aroma of meat, and she was not very hungry in her stomach, and she wrinkled the tip of her nose vigorously: "After baking, sprinkle salt on it, and it will be more fragrant." ”
Du Heng did as he said, tore off a rabbit leg and handed it over, and said with a smile: "The master ate meat in the middle of the night, I'm afraid that tomorrow I will have to grow two catties of meat." ”
Luo Kui sighed in shame: "Then what's the way, I have to make plans when I'm full, or shout now to scare this flesh, in case I am too scared to grow it, just like you scared Uncle Lilac today." ”
Du Heng choked with a smile, thinking about the Luo Kui of the year, when she was cultivating to a high level, she was so heroic and amazing, it was rare to meet opponents in the world, but now she is as weak as a handful of light dust, and she can't withstand the slightest bit of wind and rain, thinking of this, he can't help but feel lonely, three years ago was also in the Eastern Fujian Kingdom, and it was Luo Kui who gave up his cultivation to fight to the death, which saved these people from escaping death later, and tears flowed down his eyes: " Master, it's been three years, and your cultivation has finally recovered a little, and when you only used divination, you no longer need the mana of your subordinates, subordinates, subordinates. He didn't finish his words, and he choked up for a moment.
Luo Kui lowered her eyebrows, this cultivation is difficult to return to three years ago, and now the lowly can only urge the compass, she can't bear to tell the truth, for fear of disappointing Du Heng, her hand reached out to the top of the bonfire, wrapped in the warmth of spring, raised her eyes and smiled lightly and skillfully: "You don't know how tired I am of dancing knives and guns, blood-stained clothes can't be washed, and I have to be nagged by Su Zi for not being diligent enough, I wanted to watch you work hard, I sat back and enjoyed it, but now I can't." ”
Du Heng knew that Luo Kui intended to relieve his heart, and no matter how sorry he was, he had no choice but to follow her words and smile: "What the master said is reasonable, the master is a daughter's family, because of his bad temper, he is not in good spirits, if he dances with knives and guns all day long, he is afraid that he will not be able to marry at home." ”
Luo Kui glanced at him fiercely, gritted his teeth and smiled: "You are more and more capable now, and your speech is so clever that even I dare to joke." ”
Du Heng smiled and didn't say anything, only holding the branches, cage the fire, the sparks burst and crackled, the warmth came to his face, the wind in the mountains was strong and cold, he roasted his hands, and his voice was low as if there was sadness: "This trip out, the master can lose some weight." ”
Luo Kui pinched her wrist, the jade bracelet on her wrist swayed, and easily pushed it to her elbow, she chuckled: "It's good to lose weight, save clothes and materials." ”
Du Heng smiled and sighed, spread a dark gray thick velvet blanket in the open space not far from the fire, and spread a thick brocade mattress on top of the velvet blanket, and then poked out four extremely deep soil pits with a sword around the mattress, picked up four straight and long branches and poked them inside, tied a royal blue thick brocade curtain, and burned insect repellent incense in the gilded copper smoker outside the curtain.
Luo Kui smiled: "I said why is the burden so heavy, you actually brought these out, don't be tired." ”
Du Heng looked back and smiled: "Senior brother in charge said that if the master loses a strand of hair when he goes out this time, he will shave his subordinates bald." If the master loses a meat or two, he will chop his subordinates alive. ”
Luo Kui smiled: "If you shave bald, you will chop you alive, and the less flesh I lost will not be able to make up for it." The senior brother in charge is better than a fox, and he will definitely not do this kind of thankless thing that offends people and makes a thankless effort. ”
This whole night, in the uninhabited forest, the cruel poison and the ferocious beasts all peeked at the two people under the tree, but the fire was burning extremely vigorously, and Du Heng, who was half-asleep under the tree, held a long sword in his hand, very vigilant, and retreated countless bloody mouths dripping with saliva.
In the morning, the sky is bright, and the warm sunlight falls into the Yinhuo Mountain Range, which also becomes cold, and the morning dew adds to the coolness. Luo Kui shook the slightly damp skirt corners, and taking advantage of the morning light, the two went all the way to the west, looking for it as they went.
Walking out of the dense forest, the trees became more and more sparse, without the canopy to block it, and the sunlight gradually warmed, dispelling the yin qi in the Yin Fire Mountain Range.
And on each sparse tree, there were several small snakes with evil red bodies, with small hooks on their tails, motionless. If it weren't for the slight movement of the snake's belly and the wisps of red light overflowing from its mouth, it would really make people mistake it for a dead thing.
Luo Kui raised his eyes and looked at it, and then made a silent gesture to Du Heng: "This hooked snake originally grew in the water of Yongchang County, day and night, eating people, cattle and horses, why does it appear here now, and it has even moved to a tree, it is not that the water in Yongchang County has dried up." ”
Du Heng looked around and said softly: "This mountain is really weird, and it is not surprising that some demons are born. ”
Luo Kui knew that now was not a good time to investigate this matter, and even if he did, he couldn't find out that he was ugly, so he bowed slightly: "Let's go, now these snakes are asleep, be careful." ”
The deepest part of the Yin Fire Mountain Range is full of fiery red dense forests, every tree and every forest are exactly the same, enter it into the labyrinth, you can only live in it, through the fiery red dense forest is an open place, the end of the mountain wall is engraved with three fiery red characters: "Yin Fire Cave". However, there is no gate on the mountain wall, only red light, faintly there is a very powerful prohibition, and there are a few wailing voices in the belly of the mountain, which makes people's hearts skip a beat.
A huge hall was taken out in the belly of the mountain, surrounded by the appearance of the beginning of the excavation, and no decoration was done, only the palm-sized East China Sea Divine Beads were embedded in the mottled stone wall to replace the light of the candle flame.
In the empty hall, there was only one stone round table, and several stone round stools were scattered around the side. The lotus smoker on the table was smoky, the two small warm jade lamps were shining, and there was a faint fire flickering at the bottom of the lamp.
Two men sit opposite each other in the cave, one with short horns and the other with a high crown.
The high-crowned man slowly took a sip of tea, his voice was like the voice of gold and jade, and he said sonorously: "Now that the Quartet is falling apart, if you and I join forces, we will definitely be able to dominate the demon world." ”
The short-horned man smiled lightly, and opened his mouth angrily: "It's because you want to dominate the demon world, but the old man has never thought about it." ”
The high-crowned man laughed frankly and loudly: "If the old man dominates the demon world, then this Eastern Fujian country will be allowed to come and go from now on." The contract that the brother made with Lingguang back then was null and void. ”
The short-horned man stared for a moment and shook his head: "The old man knows what your idea is, Lingguang's god is gone, his big girl sealed the ghost emperor with her body, and the second girl is an unsuccessful person, although she inherited the Southern Emperor, but her cultivation is finally lower, as for the other three parties, the Qinglong clan communicates with you about the good of Qin and Jin, the White Tiger clan is weak, and the child of Xiqiang is more than generous and lacks courage; The current situation is very beneficial to you, you can't sit still, but don't forget, the sixth child of the Qinglong clan is a genius in the sky, and Xianmao is even more scheming, how he seized the position of the demon emperor back then, you will not forget. ”
The high-crowned man dropped a sunspot and smiled gloomily: "How Xianmao is cultivating now, the old man is very clear, as for the sixth child, if he is willing to be my son-in-law honestly, I will naturally not embarrass him, otherwise a junior can be better than my brother and my brother." ”
The short-horned man stared at the black and white chessboard, his eyes flashing: "Don't forget Yujing Mountain." ”
The high-crowned man's eyebrows jumped, and he smiled disappreciatively: "The old monster on Yujing Mountain hasn't shown his face for many years, the big girl of the Lingguang family fought with the demon world back then, and I didn't see the old monster come out to help her, she is the most important disciple of the old monster, after all these years, whether he is alive or not, I don't know." ”
The short-horned man finally stopped hesitating, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled angrily: "Okay, then, the old man will keep an eye on the juniors of Buting Mountain and Buzhou Mountain for you, and the rest depends on your ability." ”
Passing through the woods full of hooked snakes, there is a red stream flowing quietly, Du Heng looked into the distance, looked around, and exclaimed with a little joy: "Found it, master, found it, there." ”
Looking in the direction of his finger, on the edge of the red stream, there were a few inconspicuous plants, green and weak, and each green leaf was engraved with a lively red dragon.
Luo Kui stepped forward quickly, carefully picked up one of the leaves with two fingers, and looked at it for a long time before nodding and breathing a sigh of relief: "Yes, it is the dragon scale grass, and it is already ripe, and it is suitable for Jingmo medicine." ”
Hearing this, Du Heng was overjoyed, and tiptoed to pick all the dragon scale grass by the stream, put it into a cold jade box with the roots, and put it away carefully.
