Bi Xianqing passed by the place where the horse was tethered, and the big black horse found a clean place to sleep on his stomach, and the body of the pony was already stiff and cold. Bi Xianqing saw that the horse meat was still fresh, and cut another piece of horse meat back.

Hua Mei was hungry all night, and asked about the aroma of barbecue, and woke up faintly. Xiao Jiu and Bi Xianqing are already sharing barbecue.

"Get up, drink some water and eat something. Bi Xianqing watched Hua Mei wake up, and handed over the water bag and a piece of roast horse meat.

Hua Mei took a sip of water and said, "You can't eat yesterday's horse meat, right?"

"yes. Bi Xianqing replied, "I wanted to catch a fish, but I didn't catch it." I couldn't find anything to eat, so I could only eat horse meat first. ”

"I don't eat it!" said Hua Mei, turning her face away.

"Hua Mei, you can barely eat a little. What to do if you're hungry. Bi Xianqing persuaded softly.

"It's not that I don't want to eat, but I really can't swallow it, so don't force me. Anyway, it's almost time to reach Kuju Mountain, so it doesn't matter. Hua Mei said.

"Oh well. Bi Xianqing sighed softly.

Xiao Jiu and Bi Xianqing finished eating, and the three of them took a short rest and then hurried away. But there was a small trouble in front of him: now there was only one horse left.

"Let's walk, let Xiao Jiu sit on the horse. Hua Mei said.

"No, that's too slow, we'll have at least one more day to get to Kuju Mountain on two legs. Bi Xianqing worried.

"What then?" asked Flower Charm.

Bi Xianqing looked at the well-fed big black horse and said: "That's it, I'm riding a horse, you sit in front of me and hold Xiao Jiu, we will be faster on horseback." ”

"This ......" Hua Mei hesitated, but now it seemed that there was only one way, "Okay." Hua Mei nodded in agreement.

Bi Xianqing took out the big black horse and hung the luggage on the saddle. Hua Mei hugged Xiao Jiu and got on the horse first, and Bi Xianqing then stepped on the horse.

"Drive!" Bi Xianqing gently twitched the big black horse, and the big black horse began to run.

Bi Xianqing's chest was tightly attached to Hua Mei's back, and Hua Mei was surrounded by Bi Xianqing in her arms, and her posture was very ambiguous. Bi Xianqing realized how happy it was to die a horse, and at this time he couldn't help but be grateful to Xiao Jiu who was mischievous.

Since the big dark horse brought two people at a time, although his physical strength was abundant, it was still a little slower than usual. But they weren't far from the Kuju Mountains either. The big black horse galloped all the way, and it took less than half a day to reach the foot of Jiuhua Mountain.

Jiuhua Mountain is full of fairy energy, and the three big characters of Jiuhua Mountain engraved on a big stone are vigorous and powerful. Bi Xianqing stood at the foot of the mountain and watched, and sighed in his heart: "It is really a good place to practice. ”

"This is the Nine Mountains? We're here so soon! Hua Mei looked at the three big characters of Jiuzhong Mountain, and her face couldn't hide her joy.

Bi Xianqing nodded and smiled, "Yes, we finally arrived at Jiuju Mountain. ”

Xiao Jiu jumped out of Hua Mei's arms, looking at the tree-lined Jiuju Mountain, Xiao Jiu turned around a few times, and came back to look at Bi Xianqing.

"There's no way up the mountain?" asked Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu wagged his tail in agreement.

Hua Mei looked at Bi Xianqing and asked, "What's the matter?"

Bi Xianqing rubbed his forehead and said, "Xiao Jiu said that it didn't find the way up the mountain. ”

"How can there be no road? Fanxiang Valley is so famous, won't you build a road up the mountain? Xiao Jiu must have found the wrong way this time!" Hua Mei questioned.

Bi Xianqing looked at Xiao Jiu and said, "No, the nine-tailed fox's intuition is the keenest, and Xiao Jiu shouldn't make mistakes." Let's go up and have a look. ”

"Good. "The charm of the flower should be here.

Bi Xianqing looked at the Nine Layers of Mountain that was hidden by ancient trees, and he made up his mind in his heart, he must go up.

Bi Xianqing walked into the dense woods first, with Hua Mei and Xiao Jiu following behind. The more Bi Xianqing walked, the denser the woods became, and his feet were full of dead branches and rotten leaves, and he couldn't see the soil. Xiao Jiu tried to pick up the fallen leaves with his claws, but over the years, the leaves had been piled up in a thick layer, and no matter how he picked them down, they were about to rot.

Bi Xianqing walked cautiously in front, the newly fallen leaves were still fresh, but most of the previous leaves had rotted, and they were very soft under the feet, and the leaves did not reach the calves as soon as he stepped on them.

Xiao Jiu is even more pitiful, because he is too small, only one head and nine tails are exposed, and he is lame on this leg, and he can't walk at all when he reaches a place with many leaves.

Bi Xianqing turned around and saw Hua Mei and Xiao Jiu who were struggling, picked up Xiao Jiu and put it on his shoulder, took Hua Mei's hand and walked forward.

There are more and more trees, and the leaves are getting thicker and thicker. As soon as Bi Xianqing stepped down, the leaves had already reached the knee position. Bi Xianqing reluctantly pulled Hua Mei forward, and Xiao Jiu leaned on Bi Xianqing's shoulder and sniffed around. Now that I have to rest for a while with every step, Bi Xianqing and Hua Mei have long been sweating profusely, and Hua Mei has not eaten in the morning, and she has already lost her physical strength.

"Are we lost?" Bi Xianqing suddenly looked at Xiao Jiu and asked. Xiao Jiu's eyes gave him affirmation.

Xiao Jiu kept sniffing around, and found that something was getting more and more wrong, and there was no way but to induce Bi Xianqing.

Hua Mei wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Haven't you been walking up? ”

Bi Xianqing's hand holding Hua Mei was already full of sweat, but he didn't want to let go, Bi Xianqing clenched a little more and said, "Let's go forward and take a look." ”

Flower Charm nodded, then pulled her legs out of the leaf and walked forward.

After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, the leaves under Bi Xianqing's feet became thinner and thinner, and it was much easier to walk. Walking forward, Bi Xianqing seemed to see the big black horse they left at the foot of the mountain.

Bi Xian Qingsong Blossom Charm walked forward quickly, but he didn't expect it to be a big black horse, and they went back to the same place. Hua Mei also walked out after him, and saw the faint despair in the heart of the big black horse.

"Why are we coming down again?" asked Bi Xianqing, looking up to the sky.

"We're lost. Hua Mei said calmly: "These trees may be a maze, in order to prevent outsiders from invading the Valley of Fanxiang, so this array was laid. ”

Bi Xianqing nodded and said, "That makes sense." You and Xiao Jiu are waiting here, I'll try it on up. Bi Xianqing said and handed Xiao Jiu to Hua Mei.

"You take Xiao Jiu with you, Xiao Jiu can help you too. Hua Mei put Xiao Jiu on Bi Xianqing's shoulder again.

"Well, be careful. Bi Xianqing looked at Hua Mei uneasily, "I'll leave Lanyue to you, if there is danger, you can still defend yourself." As he spoke, he untied the "flower charm" hanging on his waist and gave it to the flower charm.

"Okay. Hua Mei nodded and took the moon. "Be careful, too. ”

"Hmm. Bi Xianqing nodded.

"Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, come and see, there are two little hairy children here who are going to Fanxiang Valley, these two children are very good-looking, and they actually have a little nine-tailed fox. Nangong Yue pointed to the Guixu Water Mirror and said excitedly.

Tianji and Lu Shu came up, and Lu Shu said, "Isn't this Bi Xianqing and Hua Mei? They arrived so soon." ”

"Third Senior Brother, you know them, then I'll help them. Nangong Yue looked at the two people in the water mirror with interest.

"No!" Tianji said with a straight face, "If you want to go to the Fanxiang Valley, you must first pass the maze, this is a rule, and no one can break it." Whether they can come up or not depends on their own ability. After Tianji finished speaking, he went to busy with his own affairs.

"Okay. Nangong Yue said aggrievedly.

Lu Shu patted Nangong Yue's head and said with a smile: "Your second senior brother is like this, don't worry about him." As he spoke, he winked at Nangong Yue and followed Tianji.

Nangong Yue watched Lu Shu leave with a smile, and then fell in front of the Guiru Water Mirror. Nangong Yue casually gestured a few times with her finger on the Guiru Water Mirror. Clapping his hands and saying, "I've done my best, and the rest is up to you." ”

Hua Mei looked at the big sun overhead, her eyes darkened, and her body staggered for a moment. Hua Mei walked to the big black horse, and the big black horse was also listless. Hua Mei took a sip of water from the water bag and gave the big black horse a few sips. Hua Mei looked at the shady ground behind the boulder engraved with the three characters of Jiuju Mountain, and pulled the big black horse over.

The boulder completely blocked the sun, and the shade was cool, and the bare soil was covered with a layer of green moss. The big black horse enjoyed lying on the ground, taking advantage of the cool ground air to drive off the heat. Hua Mei leaned against the boulder and felt a coolness behind her. Hua Mei touched her hungry stomach and picked up the water bag and drank a few sips of water.

Bi Xianqing and Xiao Jiu walked around in the woods for a while, and finally returned to the same place.

Bi Xianqing looked at the flower charm and the big black horse were gone, and looked at Xiao Jiu in distraction, Xiao Jiu raised his head and sniffed with his nose, looking at the boulder.

Bi Xianqing breathed a sigh of relief and called out to Hua Mei, who answered from the stone. Bi Xianqing and Xiao Jiu also walked behind the stones.

"How's that?" asked Flora.

Bi Xianqing shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "I tried to let Xiao Jiu leave a smell on the tree, but after a while, Xiao Jiu was also confused, no matter how we walked, we would return to the same place." ”

Hua Mei comforted Bi Xianqing and said, "It's okay, let's try again." Hua Mei said that she got up and wanted to try again with Bi Xianqing.

As soon as Hua Mei got up to leave, Xiao Jiu's sharp eyes saw a few lines of small words in the place where Hua Mei was blocking just now.

Xiao Jiu pulled Bi Xianqing's trouser legs to signal Bi Xianqing. Bi Xianqing looked back at the place indicated by Xiao Jiu, and there were several lines of hairpin flowers engraved on it.

Bi Xianqing pulled Hua Mei and squatted down, and saw that it was two lines of poetry. "Envy the peach blossom red pink face, fall into the mud to see the ladder. Bi Xianqing read it softly.

"What does that mean?" asked Hua Mei, puzzled.

"Did you just say that the woods might be a maze? Bi Xianqing turned around and asked.

"Yes. Hua Mei said. However, looking at these two verses, this maze should only be a test for those who want to go to the Van Xiang Valley to practice. ”
