Chapter 1 Its Leaves are Furious
On the twenty-first day of October, there were no clouds.
After half a month of rain, Yunyu Mountain finally miraculously cleared up today. The autumn sun is a brilliant light gold, reflecting the yellow and green branches and leaves all over the mountains, which is extraordinarily gorgeous.
Linghu Zhenzhen sat on the white stone on the edge of the cliff with Erlang's legs crossed, covering her nose with one hand.
Although it is a good thing that this ghost place that rains all day is clear, the smell is too bad, and the water vapor accumulated all over the mountain is illuminated by the sun, and all the rotten smell of dead branches and rotten leaves is steamed.
The mountain breeze is light, and the leaves of Luan Mu are swaying not far away, making a refreshing rustling sound, and the leaves are occasionally opened, revealing a bunch of snow-white small bud-like fruits at the bottom. The bottom of the bud is slightly cracked, look at the shape, and after another day or two, the fruit will be completely ripe, and it is time to pick.
It's just not easy to pick.
Her gaze fell on the vine demon with thin eyebrows and thin eyes under the tree, he pinched a stone in his hand, and was making a motion to smash it.
"Come here!" his voice was shrill and harsh, especially piercing the ears, "or I'll stone you to death!"
Ling Fox Zhenzhen turned over to avoid the flying stones, and gently and skillfully lowered the white stones, and the water-green light skirt bloomed like a flower for a moment, and then fell again. Her hair color is slightly lighter than that of ordinary people, only a bun, which looks fluffy and soft, and her eyes show a very transparent amber color in the sunlight, and her appearance is very delicate.
But the irascible vine demon didn't know what it meant to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, so he just roared viciously: "Come over quickly!"
Ling Fox Zhenzhen walked slowly towards Luanmu, until she reached about two feet away from it, and then stopped.
"Closer!" the vine demon urged.
She shook her head and said, "Can't go any further." β
The vine demon was so angry that he smoked.
In the past few days, the Luanmu fruit will be ripe, and there are really many people who come to Yunyu Mountain to fight the fruit, but most of them have been beaten away by him, only the little girl in front of him, he can't touch her for half a month. She was very cunning, she must have found that she couldn't go too far away from Luanmu, and she was only far away every day, and for the grumpy vine demon, her water-green body was as uncomfortable as a grain of sand in her eyes, and she couldn't rub it off, and she was really annoyed.
"I was just kidding you before. He suddenly changed his expression and smiled very forcefully, "Tell you to come closer, and let's talk again like last time." You're just an ordinary person, not one of those monks in Middle-earth, and if you really want fruit, I'll pick a few for you. β
Ling Hu Zhenzhen still shook her head: "I won't go over, you want to beat me." β
"Why, I don't hit women. β
"That's not what you said when you hit those girls in yellow dresses before. β
Phew! It's so tough! The vine demon has always had little patience, and he just tosses on the ground, and he wants to find the biggest stone and smash her hateful face!
I didn't think that she suddenly put her hand into her sleeve pocket, and pulled out a rather long axeβhow could she stuff such a large thing into her sleeve?
The next moment, she took out another piece of thin rope and wrapped it around the handle of the axe, moving slowly and carefully, the sunlight fell on the blade of the axe, the cold light was terrifying, and it looked like it had just been polished, and it was particularly sharp.
The vine demon suddenly reacted: "You, what are you going to do? Cut me with an axe?!"
Not bad. Ling Fox Zhenzhen bowed his head, tied the string tightly in a dead knot, and shook it twice in his hand, revealing a very satisfied expression.
No one had ever dared to show his weapon in front of Luan Mu, and the first time he saw such a bold outlaw, he couldn't help but panic: "Are you crazy?! Do you know that if you hurt my vine body, you will also hurt Luan Mu! Then you will die! The demon monarch's puppet will definitely hunt you down to the ends of the earth!"
Of course, she knew that, in short, if she wanted to pick the Luan Wood Fruit of Yunyu Mountain, she would have to face two big troubles: the irascible and death-loving vine demon, and the demon monarch talisman puppet.
These demons are really going to find trouble for her.
She grasped the handle of the axe and made a throwing gesture, and the vine demon slipped back into the vine, and the pitch-black vines wriggled like snakes on the charred trunk of the luan, shrinking the thick main vine behind the leaves, leaving only the most slender branches to crawl the entire body.
After waiting for a long time to not throw the axe, the vine demon hid behind the branches and leaves and looked at her vigilantly, but saw that she took out a piece of dry cake from her sleeve, gnawed it carefully, and only used two fingers to pinch the handle of the axe, and her amber eyes glanced at this side from time to time.
The suspicious vine demon sensed that she must have some kind of conspiracy, and remained silent behind the branches and leaves.
In fact, what he said was right, she really didn't have any confidence that she would only hurt the vine body and not Luan Mu, this old vine deserved to have the confidence to die, and it was much more troublesome than the puppet.
After Ling Fox Zhenzhen finished chewing a piece of bread, she was rubbing the crumbs of her fingertips, and out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure on the white stone on the edge of the cliff, silently, and I don't know how long she had been standing.
She hated it most when someone didn't speak behind her back, so she immediately turned sideways and met a pair of dark eyes.
It's a teenager...... No, it should be between the age of teenagers and young adults. The wind was blowing sharply on the edge of the cliff, his thick black hair was swaying endlessly, and there was a small and transparent white jade ring hanging on the braid, which was pulled by the wind and kept shaking on the side of his cheeks, making his eyebrows and eyes more and more black, and his appearance was beautiful. I don't know what the texture of the crow green clothes on his body is, it looks strange and valuable, but it is extremely light and soft, and the clothes are rolled up at this time, and there is a bit of a fairy smell.
However, his expression was not very much like that of an immortal, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, staring at the cold and bright axe in her hand, cautious and a little confused.
Seeing her look at himself, he hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly, and his voice ......was gentle: "Girl, what is that axe?"
You will know it when you see it, right?" Ling Fox Zhenzhen said: "The weapon of cutting the old vine." β
He looked at the pitch-black vines coiled on the luan, and asked modestly, "Why did you cut that old vine?"
Well, she knows, this person must also be from Middle-earth, and she doesn't know that the demons in the wilderness love to die.
"You're here to pick the luanwood fruit too?" she asked.
He tilted his head and thought about it, and the small jade ring shook slowly in his ears: "Sort of." β
Ling Fox Zhenzhen explained very succinctly: "That's a vine demon, and it can beat people." β
...... So is she planning to use an axe to cut down the vine demon? It is worthy of the great wilderness, and the methods used by ordinary people to deal with demons are so simple and rude. Qin Xi felt that he had never seen such a strange thing, so he had to take a good look, so he bowed his head and said in a somewhat encouraging tone: "Girl, please continue." β
She had nothing to go on, the field was already frozen here.
"Why don't you come?" Ling Zhenzhen took two steps back.
Eh, don't cut it?
Qin Xi floated down the white stone lightly, and the tiny jade rings on his braids fell to his ears, swaying rhythmically with his steps. He walked with a steady pace, neither fast nor slow, but there was a strange lightness in his movements, as if the whole person was weightless.
I always felt that he looked a little weak.
She brushed the broken hair from her ear, but heard him ask, "Girl, what is that talisman paper?"
Luan Mushu has a blood-red rune paper pasted on his body, which is large and conspicuous, and many people have been here these days, and many of them left as soon as they saw the rune paper, and they didn't dare to hit the idea of fruit.
I don't even know this, it seems that these Middle-earth monks did not do their homework before coming to the Great Wilderness.
Ling Fox Zhenzhen recalled the common sense that had been instilled before coming: "That is the talisman paper of the Tangyuan Demon Monarch, within a square circle, whoever touches Luan Mu will be beaten by the talisman puppet." If Luan Mu is injured a little, the puppet will chase and kill him from all over the world. β
He paused slightly: "...... I'm lonely and unheard, and I've only heard of Changyuan Demon Monarch. β
Her face did not change: "That's the rune paper of the Changyuan Demon Monarch......"
"I see. Qin Xi interrupted her slowly, squinted and looked at the rune paper carefully for a while, and said, "It's a group puppet drawing method, can the girl know how many rune puppets will come out?"
"Six. She was quite impressed with that.
Qin Xi is not very old, but there is a kind of calm and relaxed demeanor, the mountain road on the side of the cliff is not smooth, full of gravel and mud, but he walks like a leisurely stroll, straight to the bottom of the tree, then look up to see the dense slender vines on the body of the scorched yellow tree.
After touching the branches, and after waiting for a long time and seeing no reaction, he couldn't help but wonder: "Girl, it hasn't moved." β
The next moment it moved.
The black, slender vines suddenly wrapped around his wrist, and he didn't struggle, letting the force pull at his palm and slap heavily on the cold and rough tree.
The sharp wind whistled, and the water vapor in all directions seemed to be kneaded together by an invisible hand, and then suddenly separated, and in an instant, it turned into six extremely burly translucent humanoid talisman puppets, and pounced on him viciously.
It turns out that this is the Demon Monarch Talisman Puppet.
Qin Xi didn't move, but the tiny jade ring that fell from his braids moved, and with a slight flicker, the soft clear light spread out like a tide, pushing the puppets away in an instant.
The wind behind his head was sharp, and he thought it was the dead vine demon sneak attack, Qin Xi Fang wanted to turn his head sideways to avoid it, but suddenly felt that there was a cold aura approaching above his head, almost touching his hairβthere was even a talisman puppet sneak attack?
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, his movements suddenly became lightning fast, and in an instant, he gave up a few feet, narrowly dodged two attacks, and then pointed to the ground on tiptoe, as if he had wings, and suddenly rose high, and landed lightly on the branches of Luanmu.
The talisman puppet that sneaked up hit the air with one palm and smashed it to the ground, with a loud "boom", splashing countless rubble.
The vine demon who originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos to beat people scolded loudly: "Where did the thief come from! Hide faster than a mouse!"
Qin Xi ignored him, and only looked at Linghu Zhenzhen, and there was a little coolness in his voice: "Didn't you say six talisman puppets? β
The first six talisman puppets came from all directions, but the last one was hiding in the shadows and sneaking from the dead corner, fortunately he reacted quickly, otherwise he would have suffered a loss here, the puppet's palm hit the body, and the broken bones were trivial.
Ling Fox Zhenzhen shook her head, she didn't know why.
Three days ago, she also met someone who asked her how many talisman puppets there were, because she remembered that there were five last time, so she told the truth, who knew that six popped up, and that person suffered because of it. She thought she was dazzled by one less eye, and she didn't want to be like this again today. I'm afraid that there is something wrong with the demon monarch's rune paper, and she won't be dazzled to such a point.
The vine demon couldn't help laughing, slipped back into the vine body, leaned out from the branches and leaves, and said in a low voice: "She lied to you, she used this method to deceive several fools!
