Volume 2: Drifting Away Chapter 157: Pro! Lost in the Swamp!
People are things that value affection and the past, and when they make a big mistake, the best way to forgive themselves is to recall the past and use the so-called 'hard work' to confuse the public!
At this time, Han Wan's trick was really wonderful, and as soon as Fang spoke, Chu Xinghai, who was not good at words, was speechless!
When Lin Zhenyue saw that Chu Lao was deflated, he naturally wanted to get up and go forward to relieve the siege, but suddenly found that he was suppressed by his anger and couldn't move! And above this hall, there are only two alliance leaders who can have such ability!
However, now that the Lord of the Chu League is hoping that someone will help him, so he can be excluded, so the only one left is the White Emperor alone! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see him looking at himself with a smile, and at the same time, his eyes were full of deep meaning.
With such an obvious performance, how could he not know that he wanted to take this opportunity to stimulate him Chu Xinghai, so that he could learn the skills of planning, trickery, and debate more or less in the future!
Thinking of this, Lin Zhenyue couldn't help but quiet down again, and at the same time, the prohibition on his body was automatically lifted.
Chu Xinghai was stunned for a few breaths, but he didn't say anything, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at others, wanting to seek help from them, but after finding that everyone on the field seemed to be watching a play, he had to look at Lin Xiaozi helplessly, thinking: I am helping his apprentice speak now, although all this is planned, but in order to plan for the future, I can't lose this face!
found that the other party didn't even raise his head, his eyes were slightly closed, as if everything above the hall had nothing to do with him, and he was suddenly full of anger and had nowhere to vent, so he had to sit back with a muffled snort.
Originally, the purpose of today's events was to beat them, but the final result did not seem to be optimistic......
In the blink of an eye, it was already three days later, and Mo Qingyu had already followed Gu Mo and the others to the Lost Swamp, looking at the difficult living conditions here, he felt a little sour in his heart.
Although the demons are all born of obsession and yin and evil, but in the previous life, they were gods after all, and their hearts were naturally not without kindness, but now they have been expelled to such a situation, how can they not make people sympathize?
"Mo boy saw this, but did he feel anything?" Gu Mo saw his expression like this, and seemed to deliberately guide him to ask.
"Lord, although the war between humans and demons is severe, if it can be calmed down, you say that humans and demons may live in peace?"
"This master can't quite guess, after all, the demon did a lot of cruel things back then, and the stigma has continued to this day, if it weren't for the so-called 'Thousand Children Yin Soul Devouring Array', I don't think it would have come to this point......"
When Mo Qingyu heard this, he couldn't help but think of what Gu Chenyang had said that the first demon born between heaven and earth was Gu Mo, so who could that demon be? Or what was the relationship between the two?
"Lord, there is one thing in the kid's heart that I don't understand, I wonder if the lord can solve the kid's doubts?"
"Oh, tell me, maybe the Lord knows. ”
"The boy once heard in his previous life say that you were the first demon born in the world, in that case, who will be the demon who will cast this evil array?"
"The master is indeed the first demon good, but it is not the first to take shape, and there are all kinds of gaps between the master and the demon made by the evil god, but these things have not yet reached the realm where you can touch, even if you say more, it is unintentional, you might as well wait a few more days. ”
Seeing that the demon lord said that, he continued to walk forward, although he guessed something because of this sentence in his heart, but he still went with him, and all the demons he met on the road were very respectful and put their hands on their chests to salute, which shows how noble Gu Mo's status in this clan is!
After entering the largest tent, everyone sat down, and among them was the previous enemy, the four envoys and the seven evil spirits!
However, the world is unpredictable, and I never thought that now we have become friends, or it is more accurate to work together.
"Congratulations to my lord for getting a good general! In the future, the battle between humans and demons will definitely increase the chances of victory!"
"What the Blood Demon Venerable said is reasonable, the things that were prepared by the people before can also be served, let's talk while eating, and it can be regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for this Mo boy!" haha......"
After that, I saw that the tent door opened, and then one after another demon women kept coming in, everyone held a tray in their hands, and sent good wine and meat to put on the table, from beginning to end without making any sound, in just a stick of incense time, in front of everyone present was already full of delicacies!
"You don't have to be so stunned, let's drink this cup first!" Gu Mo saw that everything was ready, took the wine and got up, and then saluted around, and then drank it all with his head up!
When everyone saw the demon lord standing up, they had already stood up one after another, and when they saw the demon lord toasting like this, they all showed respect and drank the glass of wine!
Of course, except for Gu Chenyao, although she is a little highness of the demon clan, she is young after all, and she doesn't like this spicy thing, so she naturally just stands up and accompanies her with water and sweet drinks.
"Ahem~" Suddenly there was an inopportune coughing sound in the tent, and everyone couldn't help but look at it when they heard it, only to see Mo Qingyu's face flushed, and even his eyes were faintly filled with tears, covering his mouth and enduring it.
"Hee-hee...... Although my Demon Clan's wine is not as delicious as your Terran wine, it has a great tonic effect! After all, in this cold place, if you don't have this strong wine to ward off the cold, how can you resist it? Hehe...... "The first person to speak was the Blood Demon who had fought with him first.
Although there were many fights and fights before, but now that they are working together, naturally no one pays attention to these anymore, after all, it is not clear who will help whom in the future.
"Let the seniors laugh, the kid has never drunk such a spirit, the first time he tried it, but he showed a foreign appearance, and I hope it didn't sweep everyone's interest. ”
"How could it be!I'm not the kind of hypocritical person, and besides, you've brought everyone a lot closer, it should be meritorious~" The blood demon suddenly got up as he spoke, came to him with a wine glass and said: "The deity made a lot of offends before, and it didn't hurt you kid, now I make amends with wine, and I hope that Mo kid won't remember those past events!"
After that, without waiting for any reply, he drank it all down, which was in stark contrast to his feminine voice.
And when he saw the illusion demon behind this scene, he didn't wait for the main owner to have something to say, and directly followed up and said: "Blood Demon You think too much, Mo Xiaozi is the kind of bold person at first glance, and he will definitely not worry too much about us people, and now that this Blood Demon Venerable Envoy has reconciled with you, then the Deity Envoy must not be left behind!"
"If that's the case, shouldn't the deity envoy also come forward and toast along?"
"Yes, yes, there is also my inner demon, although they were both in the same place at the beginning, but for various reasons, you and I have not really met, and now we know each other!"
After Gu Mo saw such an offensive, coupled with the fact that he drank this liquor for the first time, and saw that his beloved daughter kept glaring at him, he obviously wanted to let himself help him.
But now Yaxing, who went to disturb them by himself, was not in accordance with the rules, and couldn't help but glance at the other person, and said a few words to the secret method transmission.
Hong Liezhong already had the intention of helping, after all, along the way, there was no less delicious food made by others, and now after being reminded by the Lord, he stood up directly and said: "Since the four envoys stepped forward at the same time, then my old Hong and the Seven Yin Evil might as well come at one time, otherwise after he is drunk by the four of you, who will we drink with?" haha......
Seeing that someone suddenly spoke, the Seven Yin Evil also stood up, although among all the people present, they were the lowest, but the demon clan didn't pay much attention to these, plus when the banquet was cheerful at this time, they naturally joined in directly.
Mo Qingyu looked at everyone's performance like this, his heart was warm, and the unwillingness to be abandoned before was also comforted, and he hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said: "You seniors are like this, the kid is really scared, today's first glass of wine, the kid should have paid tribute to the seniors first, but he was preempted by the seniors, since this is the case, the little one drank it all and expressed his heart!"
After that, when he was about to drink, he was stopped by Hong Liezhong, only to see him suddenly turn to Gu Mo in the first place and say: "Since everyone has served it, you might as well drink a cup with the Lord!"
"Okay! Since Lao Hong has spoken, the master naturally can't refute the brothers' face, so let's drink it again together!"
Seeing this, Gu Chenyao immediately felt very funny, and then stood up with the water and sweet drink, saluted around, and drank down!
Then a group of demons talked about the future situation and hopes, and kept drinking the spicy wine.
And Mo Qingyu was not good at drinking, so he drank two large glasses of liquor in a row, and after holding on for a while, he fell on the table in front of him and fainted.
As for what happened next, and how I got back, I don't remember it at all.
I only know that when I woke up in the morning, I lived in a tent, sat up and rubbed my somewhat drowsy head, and couldn't help but look at everything around me.
Although the layout is extremely simple, it has a warm feeling, because this place is very similar to my own residence in the valley of the gun, which makes my heart happy, and I unconsciously recall the previous days in the valley.
I don't know how long time has passed, and suddenly a bouncing footsteps came into my ears, breaking this reverie, and those who can do this don't have to think too much, they guess that it will only be her!
Sure enough, I saw that the tent door suddenly opened, and Gu Chenyao ran towards him with joy, and at the same time kept shouting: "Brother, brother, get up quickly, Yao'er will take you to find something fun!"
"Oh? Yao'er is going to take her brother to find something fun? And now that my brother has just gotten up, why don't you wait a little and let my brother freshen up and fill his stomach before going, do you think?"
"Brother, why bother so much, the place where Yao'er took you has a particularly clear lake, as well as fish and fruits, and when you get there, my brother still has to worry about not being able to freshen up?
Looking at Gu Chenyao, who was full of joy in front of her, she directly stepped forward and grabbed her left hand, so she smiled helplessly, and then got out of bed, and was dragged out of the room by her, heading towards the fun she said.
All the demons she met on the road, as long as she passed, she would get out of the way, and when she walked by, she breathed a sigh of relief, which shows how stubborn this little girl is on weekdays, and she scared everyone into such a look.
However, Mo Qingyu was more interested in the place she was talking about, after all, from entering the Lost Swamp the day before yesterday to coming to the camp tent yesterday, except for the barrenness, poison and swamp, it seemed that she had never seen the place she said in her mouth.
After running for about two quarters of an hour, I saw a pool of turquoise lake suddenly appear in front of me, and there were many fruit trees and the like around me.
"How about brother, isn't it good to look here?
"Of course, I didn't lie to my brother, but how did you find out about this such a good place?"
"Hehe~ This place is naturally not the first to be discovered by Yao'er, and it is not Yao'er who comes here alone, I think it won't be long before there will be clansmen who will come to fetch water, fish, and pick, but it's still a little early. ”
"Oh, in that case, this water is everyone's daily needs, how can you be here to freshen up?"
Gu Chenyao looked at his brother with a puzzled face, then showed a profound appearance, and walked forward for a while, and when he saw many small pits, and they were covered with huge branches and leaves, he already understood!
"Yao'er, isn't this the place you said to wash?"
"That's it! Brother, go over there to fetch two buckets of water and two fish, Yao'er go to the neighborhood to pick up some dry branches and pick a few fruits, and then you can have a delicious meal!"
Seeing what he said, he ran directly and happily to the place where the dead branches were hoarded, Mo Qingyu was a little sour in his heart, he didn't expect the conditions here to be so difficult, and everyone's daily needs were this pool of clear water and those fruit trees......
While thinking about how this mere lake of water could last for months with so many people, he filled the bucket, then tilted it slightly, poured out a little and put it on his hand, and simply freshened up.
When a few drops of water seeped into the mouth along the corners of the mouth, I suddenly noticed that there was a sweet taste! I took an incredible sip, and then I was even more sure that it was indeed the taste of the water!
In this way, I felt even more incredible in my heart, after all, how could such a water, which was more delicious than a mountain spring, appear in such a sinister and scarce place?!
At this time, there were already a lot of demon people, bringing baskets, bamboo baskets and other utensils here, and some children followed, as if they were here to play.
When they saw themselves, they all nodded and smiled politely, which was regarded as a greeting, and Mo Qingyu also returned the salute in the same way.
Looking at the demons who are like ordinary people outside, I can't believe it in my heart, this is the so-called obsession, yin and evil incarnation! Because they have too many similarities with people, so it's no wonder that humans call them demons!
When she approached the agreed place, she saw Gu Chenyao, who was returning with a full load, looking at herself happily, with big smart eyes, as if she could speak, telling herself about her merits.
"Brother, why have you been there for so long? Yao'er just looked at you as if you were in a daze, but were you thinking about something? Or is it ...... Miss Sister Xiao?"
"You ghost elf, you are really sharp-eyed, my brother just wants to be lazy, and you have seen it!" gently nodded on his head, and in exchange for a cautious and white eye.
"Brother, don't talk about this yet, quickly deal with this fish, Yao'er's stomach is about to be hungry~"
After hearing this, Mo Qingyu smiled disapprovingly, and then skillfully completed all the preparations, and then used the fire method to ignite the branches and leaves that he picked up.
Just as he was roasting, suddenly there was a slightly immature chaotic sound in his ears, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look, and saw seven or eight children standing not far away, watching themselves talk about something.
Those children may only be five or six years old, and the older ones are about the same size as Yao'er, after seeing this scene, they couldn't help but hand over the grilled fish skewered in their right hand to their left hand, and beckoned to the group of children under Gu Chenyao's puzzled expression.
"Why did my brother call them?"
"Aren't they your little buddies?"
"Hmph! They never play with Yao'er, and they avoid Yao'er early every time they see them!"
"Oh?" After hearing this, Mo Qingyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, first looked at Gu Chenyao who looked lonely, and then looked at the children who wanted to come but didn't dare to come, and seemed to understand something in his heart, and then asked, "Then Yao'er wants to be with them?"
"Hey, now that she has an older brother, Yao'er naturally doesn't care about them, anyway, since she was a child, only Brother Yang, Uncle Hong, and Daddy are willing to play with Yao'er......"
Looking at Gu Chenyao, who was clearly looking forward to it, but pretending to be strong, Mo Qingyu couldn't help but caress his little head a few times with his free right hand, and then beckoned to the group of children, and then pointed to the two grilled fish in his left hand.
This scene naturally let those adults see it, and after saying something to the children, they walked cautiously towards here, as if they were worried about something.
After the first child came over, Mo Qingyu pointed to the side and asked them to sit cross-legged like themselves, but no one dared to go to Gu Chenyao's side, as if they were worried about something.
"Have you ever eaten grilled fish?"
"Hmm...... Big brother, what is grilled fish?"
"It's like my brother who puts the fish on the fire and smokes it. ”
"Hmm...... I don't seem to have eaten it, A-Niang usually puts the fish in the pot and stews it with water, which is the first time I've seen this practice. ”
I saw one of the older children, looking at the two grilled fish with antiquation, and recalling what he had seen.
"Haha, in that case, will the big brother give you a taste for a while?"
When the words fell, the children obviously showed joy, but Gu Chenyao looked at the brother in front of him with displeasure, and then said aggrievedly: "Brother......!
"Yao'er!" Seeing this, Mo Qingyu hurriedly stopped her as soon as she spoke, and then said softly: "Although I don't know where the fish and clear water come from here, I think it should be the plot of a supernatural person like your father, who brought these here, but they are only allowed to enjoy them and not allow them to share them?"
"Yes, yes......"
