Chapter 29: The Monument of Life and Death

The two walked to the foot of the mountain, and did not see half a trace of the silkworm in the cloudy sky, but they saw a huge stone tablet more than two zhang high erected in the distance, and the tablet was engraved with three blood-red characters of "Life and Death Tablet", and in the lower left corner, there were eight small characters of "the living do not approach, and those who passed the monument died".

Qin Xuan frowned, and couldn't help but scold: "It's really fucking domineering." ”

Then he threw the wolf's leg on his shoulder to the ground, set up a bonfire with local materials, and found a stream at the foot of the mountain to wash and peel the wolf's leg, and then began to roast it.

The egret watched coldly, without saying a word, she saw Qin Xuan roasting, and took out a few porcelain bottles from the baggage, and sprinkled the seasoning evenly on the wolf's leg, and after a while, the egret smelled a strong aroma of barbecue, and she looked at the wolf leg in Qin Xuan's hand again, which had been roasted to a golden brown, which was extremely appetizing. She couldn't help pursing her lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then leaned over to Qin Xuan's side, and didn't speak, just stared at the wolf meat roasted on the charcoal fire.

The wolf meat is not grilled directly, but is cut by Qin Xuan with a sword, and after being propped up with a branch, it is grilled again, which can ensure that it can be cooked thoroughly inside and out, and it is easier to absorb the flavor. He glanced at the egret beside him, and was proud in his heart, he had been helping his father cook and cook since he was a child, and later after Mu Linchun arrived in Gu Yuantang, he learned to cook medicinal food for him all day long, Mu Linchun had a bad appetite, Qin Xuan learned to cook all kinds of delicacies, just to let Mu Linchun add more energy, so his cooking skills were naturally very good.

Tearing off a piece of meat and handing it to the egret, Qin Xuan smiled and said, "This fairy, do you want to taste the fireworks in the world?"

The egret glanced at him, and was not polite, took the piece of wolf meat that dripped from the oil, and ate it silently, after eating a few bites, she could no longer maintain that attitude of chewing and swallowing slowly, and ate it three times and five by two, and then simply snatched the wolf leg in Qin Xuan's hand, and stabbed the edge with a knife to divide the large piece of meat into two pieces from the middle, half of which was with Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan couldn't laugh or cry a little, did he say anything in his heart, but he didn't say anything ridiculous, compared to the egret who was cold to the bone, he preferred such a down-to-earth woman.

The weather in the snowy mountains was cold, so the two did not talk when eating, and the meat was not delicious when it was cold. Qin Xuan finished eating the last piece of wolf meat, untied the wine bag on his waist, and after taking a sip, he was extremely satisfied. He forgot to glance at the egret and asked, "Do you want to taste it, this is the champion red that Yang Laohan has been cellaring for more than ten years, which is very good, if it hadn't saved his son, it is estimated that he would not be willing to dig it out if he was killed." ”

The egret didn't speak, but directly took the wine bag, poured a trace of wine into his neck, the entrance was soft, a line of throat, mellow and delicate, full of fragrance, a good eighteen-year-old champion red, it really made people have an endless aftertaste, even drank several sips, the egret was still unsatisfied, and finally Qin Xuan took the wine bag.

"Okay, drink less, how can you drink like this? Follow the trend to recruit mercy, right? Chic is quite chic, but it's a bit wasteful, drink like this, no matter how good the wine is, you won't be able to taste it, and it won't be good to get drunk when the time comes, I still expect you to protect me!" Qin Xuan muttered while covering the wine bag with some distress, and put it back on his waist.

The egret's cheeks were crimson, and his smiling face was smiling, "Don't worry, you can't die with me." After speaking, she jumped and flew onto the monument of life and death, a gust of mountain wind blew, and the woman in white was fluttering, and her indescribable demeanor was graceful.

Just when Qin Xuan didn't know why, he saw the egret looking sideways in one direction, and said coldly: "After watching it for so long, it's greedy, right?"

As far as the egret could see, it was a towering tree of several people hugging a few feet away from the monument of life and death, Qin Xuan looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see half a figure. Just as he was about to ask, he saw a figure break out of the tree, and in the blink of an eye, he walked to Qin Xuan and passed by him, and when the figure stopped, the person was already a few feet away.

I saw that the man was forty or fifty years old, looking a little funny, dressed in a thin coarse linen robe, and one of his calves was still exposed, which was incompatible with the icy and snowy environment, as if he was in the middle of summer. He couldn't wait to open a wine bag, poured a few big sips of wine, and couldn't help but praise with a stupid face: "It's really good wine!"

Qin Xuan found that the wine bag on his waist was gone, and when he looked at the funny old man again, he saw him look at the egret and asked, "When did you find me?"

"When I first came, I found you, but I saw that you didn't make a move, so I didn't provoke you, I thought you would be tempted to snatch the wolf meat, but I didn't expect your patience to be excellent. ”

After the egret finished speaking, the funny old man showed regret on his face, and said to himself: "I would have appeared early if I knew it." After saying that, he sighed, thought about it, his eyes lit up, looked at Qin Xuan and said, "Boy, why don't you work hard and help me roast another piece of meat?"

Qin Xuan didn't know whether this half-old old man was friend or foe, so he thought for a moment and said, "Yes, but you have to exchange something for it, but I don't know if you have it." ”

The funny old man narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you want?"

"A pair of cloudy silkworms. ”

As soon as Qin Xuan's words came out, the old man's face immediately changed, and his originally funny face became serious, and then he threw the wine bag in front of Qin Xuan, and said coldly: "It turns out that you are also here for the silkworm, okay, since that's the case, then don't blame me." ”

Qin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Slow, this senior, we just want a pair of silkworms to save people, why do we have to draw our swords against each other as soon as we come up?"

The funny old man snorted coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, anyone who wants to take the cloudy silkworm should die!"

After finishing speaking, the old man didn't say much, he unfolded his body and rushed towards Qin Xuan, faster than snatching the wine bag just now, but this time he couldn't get close to Qin Xuan, but was blocked by a white robe.

The funny old man's body is non-stop, with the momentum, a punch towards the shoulder of the egret, he has practiced the King Kong physique, just now with the body through the tree as if walking through the water curtain, its strength can be imagined, but unfortunately he met the egret with a ghostly body, he even punched a few times by it was understated to dodge.

The egret took a few steps back again and again, and with a virtual move, Qin Xuan's waist Mu Qin left the scabbard with a thud and flew into her hand. With the long sword in his hand, the white egret's momentum skyrocketed, and he took out a sword that was visible to the naked eye, and the funny old man knew that it was powerful, and he didn't dare to collide with it, and his body swept out, and retreated to the giant tree that he had pierced, and the five fingers of his right hand were clawed into a claw and grabbed the tree, as if grasping on tofu, and pulled out a black iron rod that was more than a foot long and thick like a child's arm from the tree.

The old man casually pulled out a handle, jumped up high, and pressed down on the white herret with a stick, the momentum was amazing, the strength was more than a thousand catties, after the egret dodged, the iron rod smashed to the ground, the snow and dust exploded at the same time, and the earth suddenly cracked out a gully several zhang long.

The egret took this opportunity to hand out a sword and slash at the old man's neck, the latter sneered, and smashed the iron rod into the egret's long sword, the two weapons collided, sparks flew everywhere, with the cultivation of the Egret Tianyuan Realm, she still felt that her arm was numb, she frowned, knowing that she had met a strong opponent today.
