Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Broken Temple
The rain stopped.
The floods that ravaged the southeastern states began to recede, and the warm sun shone back on the land.
The water level dropped to reveal large swaths of dead trees and muddy land, the whitening corpses of various creatures emitted a pungent stench under the scorching sun, and the crows began to perform their duties to clean up the carrion, but unfortunately the number was too small, and the hundred miles of desolation were deserted, birds and beasts were scarce, and a heavy rain made the southeast a wasteland.
There is a clear trace of a huge snake on the muddy ground, which winds in an S shape into the distance.
Bai Yujun twisted his body and walked around with a bookcase and two weapons, his legs turned into a snake body to avoid falling into the mud, and he walked much faster.
The flood gradually receded, and Bai Yujun prepared to return to Huashan.
After the flood, there is no need to find a way at all, just walk in a straight line, the general direction can still be distinguished, there is no plane, no train, no car, only 11 roads, I don't know how many months to return to Huashan.
Along the way, I have seen a lot of human tragedies, and I have become numb after seeing too much, nothing more than life and death and displacement, different races and different thinking, after all, in the eyes of some people, snakes are equivalent to food, and it is common for them to meet each other and operate knives.
Evening.
Bai Yujun found a broken temple to rest.
This kind of large and small temples dedicated to mountain gods are common on mountain paths, the large mountain temples have front yards and backyard walls, and the small ones are only a few meters in a radius and can barely accommodate the statues of the gods.
There has been no one to worship here for a long time, there are traces of travelers staying overnight everywhere, the statue of the god is crooked and dilapidated, Bai Yujun does not feel the breath of any gods, as if there are no gods in this world, there are no gods such as mountain gods and earth lords, since there are no gods, then it is better to spend the night.
There is no fire, the snakes are not very cold to the fire, the bookbox and weapons are put aside, Bai Yujun sits cross-legged, his head and neck are straight, his lower jaw is slightly closed, and his tongue is against the roof of his mouth.
The body naturally operates the Dao Gate Exercises, the Pure Yang Technique, and strives to absorb the aura of heaven and earth......
As for what meridians and the like, Bai Yujun has a meridian from head to toe, compared to human beings, it seems to be insufficient but a little simple, when he first learned the pure yang technique, he was also difficult by the meridian problem for a few days, and finally simply changed it to a meridian to cultivate, it is better than nothing, you must know that in fact, most monsters only rely on instinct to absorb spiritual power to cultivate themselves.
The full moon hangs high, and the crickets chirp in one piece.
Bai Yujun opened his eyes and just ...... It was even more difficult to discover the aura of your demon beast.
What is this? No man, no demon?
Rubbing his forehead, the snake brain had a headache.
Just when Bai Yujun was wondering what was going on in him, he sensed a footstep vibration in the distance, and two footsteps, one light and one heavy, approached this side, presumably seeing a traveler who came to spend the night in the broken temple.
To prevent misunderstandings, a fire is thrown out of your hand and the wood is lit and a bonfire is lit.
Add a piece of wood to the bonfire to cause the bonfire to crackle, there is fire that cannot be wasted, go back and turn around and turn out a few pieces of animal meat from the bookcase to barbecue the beast meat obtained by killing the evil demon before.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if it were a man and a woman.
The two looked outside the temple for a while, and after making sure that there were no outsiders nearby, they walked into the small ruined temple.
After seeing Bai Yujun's appearance, he was stunned, what a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city, and then looked at the two light and heavy weapons on the side and knew that it was not an ordinary person, and it was also, how could an ordinary beauty dare to appear in this barren mountain and wilderness.
"Woman, can my brother and sister rest here? ”
"Of course you can, it's spacious. ”
Bai Yujun smiled, the brother and sister are very young, they have a little spiritual power on their bodies, they should be people who practice martial arts, the most important thing is that the two of them have clear eyebrows and are upright, Bai Yujun is confident that it is not wrong to look at people.
"Thank you. ”
The girl walked in and sat down with a smile, and her brother couldn't help but look at Bai Yujun a few more times, and walked in and sat next to his sister.
"This is my sister's weapon? I didn't expect to meet a master in this barren mountain, my name is Mo Qin, the piano of chess, calligraphy and painting, this is my brother Mo Yuan. ”
Bai Yujun was speechless, her face had never changed since she was fifteen or sixteen years old, but she was treated as a doll.
"Bai Yujun, the rain of heavy rain, Wang Jun's Jun, he is not a master, he is just struggling to survive. ”
Cultivating for this kind of thing, martial arts people will not explore too much, after all, it is a bit taboo, the two brothers and sisters took out a coarse cake and baked it and gave it to Bai Yujun enthusiastically, maybe Mo Qin was born with a big grin, and did not think about whether it would be mistaken for poisoning people in food.
Mo Yuan raised his arm and touched Mo Qin, signaling not to mess around and cause trouble.
Bai Yujun smiled, took the coarse cake and ate it slowly.
"I have meat here to roast and eat, and meeting outside is fate, give. ”
Mo Qin took the beast meat and laughed quickly, and suddenly, the two brothers and sisters looked at the beast meat in front of them with incredible expressions, as if this was not beast meat but a piece of gold.
"Demon ...... The meat of the monster?"
"Ang, this monster beast eats people and dares to eat snakes, so I will kill it and eat meat, the taste is okay, chewy. Bai Yujun said while eating.
The two siblings were speechless......
It seems to say that a chicken is not a demon beast, the taste is okay, and there is a chewy head, is the demon beast so worthless now? Eating the flesh and blood of the demon beast can enhance one's own qi and blood and enhance the physique, and those who practice martial arts can increase a little skill and the body is stronger after eating, and the price of demon beast meat is extremely high in the past, and ordinary people rarely see it.
"This ...... It's too precious. ”
Although Mo Qin was very greedy, he still wanted to return the demon beast meat to Bai Yujun, and the favor was too great.
"Huh?"
It shouldn't be valuable, right? I also gave a lot of people, and then I realized that the monks had very few and could not waste demon beast meat, how could it be sold to ordinary people, unless they were rich and powerful, and they could only get it.
"It's okay, let's eat, I'm in for a treat. ”
"Then thank you, Sister Yujun. ”
The two brothers and sisters were not hypocritical, after thanking them, they excitedly cut them into several parts with a dagger and put them on the fire for barbecue, and for a while the temple was full of the smell of barbecue, and the barbecue could not be without salt, Mo Qin and Mo Yuan saw Bai Yujun turn out the salt shaker spices from the bookcase, and the small bookbox seemed to contain a lot of things.
I'm afraid that the two brothers and sisters who are excited will never think that the one sitting opposite is a demon beast......
There was laughter and laughter in the broken temple, but the two brothers and sisters were a little more jealous of Bai Yujun, and the person who could kill the demon beast and not regard the blood and flesh of the demon beast as too precious was definitely not ordinary, and might even be a monk.
The mention of monks is really complicated, without him, monks are too extreme, in order to be able to do anything in spite of everything, ordinary people respect and hate monks, respect for high ability and hate cold-blooded ruthlessness
Bai Yujun was curious where the two were going.
"When the flood recedes and the desolation is desolate, where are you going?"
"My sister and I went to Jiangzhou, when the flood was raging, many heroes took the opportunity to uncover the pole and rebelled, the grain and grass transported by the imperial court to Jiangzhou for disaster relief were intercepted and detained by the rebels, and the people had nothing to eat. ”
Hearing this, Bai Yujun was in awe.
Don't say that people's skills are low, and they are also joining in the fun, at least people have made actions instead of standing behind and talking nonsense, those who make actions are always better than those who take action.
