Text 42 The rabbit dies and the fox is sad
It turned out that Butterfly, as a descendant of the royal clan transformation demon beast from the Seven Heavens, had already possessed the golden body realm cultivation of the monk transformation stage as soon as he was born. If it weren't for the fact that she hadn't been unsealed at this time and was trapped in the demon egg, she might not have encountered an opponent in this double heaven.
Listening to the butterfly's words, Zuo Hu secretly rejoiced. This journey is also dangerous. Fortunately, there was no danger, and I was able to end the task soon and return to the palace smoothly.
However, the shadow in front of him frowned. He sighed and said to the cultivators behind him, "There is a ghoul swamp ahead, so it's not suitable to drive!"
"Ghoul swamps?
"No wonder it's so gloomy here!"
"It's not good to stay here for a long time......."
Everyone listened to his words and began to talk about it.
Shadowgo stared at the foggy ghoul swamp ahead, feeling a piercing pain coming from the scar.
Based on this pain, he judged that somewhere a hundred miles away, there must be a ghost. This is the only experience benefit that Shadowgo gets after being attacked by the Shadows!
The Ghoul Swamp is absolutely impassable, and there are only two paths left.
Go 800 miles to the west and pass "no sky", or 500 miles to the north and walk "no return valley".
These two places, Shadow Ge doesn't know either. But subconsciously, I don't want to go to the valley of no return. Because of the word "no return", he felt very unlucky.
So he led the people on a journey westward.
Soon to the west, the terrain rose sharply.
At the end of the line, hundreds of miles are mountains and rivers, the mountain walls are extremely steep, and the mountains and peaks form a long and narrow mountain road between the mountains and peaks.
The mountain road is vertical and horizontal, it is easy to get lost, walking in it may not be able to tolerate the passage of the ox cart, so you can not take the mountain road, but the mountain here is steep and high, and there is no flat land on the mountain peak for people and vehicles to settle down, fly over from here, and the people who carry the ox cart are afraid to fly all the way in one breath.
However, even if you are made of iron, you need to rest. Flying over this steep mountain in one sitting, there's no way to do it.
Seeing this, Shadow Ge's face was gloomy.
"Haha! I have to go back!" the butterfly laughed triumphantly.
Looking at the mountains and rocks in front of him, Zuo Hu also felt that he could only go back. But after listening to the butterfly's laughter, I suddenly realized that this little girl might have known about the situation here for a long time but deliberately didn't say anything. "Hey, butterfly, can't you see the road of 2,000 miles, why don't you tell me in advance....."
"yes, I know, but I won't say it.... Hee-hee!"
Zuo Hu shook his head helplessly, "You are really naughty, causing everyone to take the wrong path....."
"Hmph!" the butterfly snorted dissatisfiedly. "I'm here for you, tell you, what do you want? tell Shadowgo, I don't think he's suspicious of you enough. ”
When Zuo Hu heard this, he felt that it made sense. He has already performed so well that he has long aroused the suspicion of others. I'm afraid that Shadow Ge has been hiding a murderous motive for a long time. I really shouldn't be a bird again. But then again, anyway, it's already been targeted, and dead pigs are still afraid of boiling water?
Now that you have walked more than 1,000 miles for no reason, anyone will be on fire. Now we have to go back.....
The left guard is better, and the uncle seems to have to sit on the ox cart without half an effort. But the coolies who set up a formation to carry a cart and drive the treading oxen were in a terrible mood. Along the way, people just flew forward in silence.
On the way back, passing through the Ghoul Swamp, it was already evening. Ying Ge didn't dare to let everyone stay longer, and flew straight in the direction of "No Return Valley".
Along the way, for the first time, Ying Ge asked everyone to hurry by moonlight. It seems that he is really afraid of those ghosts.
Walk until midnight. Shadow Ge seemed to feel out of threat.
At this time, I just arrived at the mouth of the valley of no return.
At the mouth of the valley, there are two sandwich cliffs, which are very similar to "not seeing the sky", but the distance between the cliffs is more open. It seems that the terrain in this radius is similar. By the moonlight, you can see that the ground is covered with angular gravel, and from time to time you can hear the sound of rocks falling in the dark valley, so that everyone does not dare to enter.
Although everyone is a monk, they can see the road conditions clearly even if they are in a hurry at night, but it is also quite exhausting to use spiritual power to make the eyes able to see at night.
So Shadow Ge ordered to camp at Taniguchi to rest.
In the middle of the night, the sound of falling rocks can be heard, which disturbs people from settling down, let alone sleeping, so they can only meditate until dawn.
However, what makes Zuo Hu very strange is that after returning from never seeing the sky, the butterfly, who always has nothing to do with him on weekdays, has not spoken for a long time. Sometimes I took the initiative to ask her, and it took only one or two sentences for half a day, as if she was resting and doing something else.
Are you too tired?" thought to Zuo Go.
Maybe. Along the way, thanks to her releasing her soul power and divine sense to sense danger, she was able to let everyone pass the test safely, and it was quite a burden for the butterfly. It's time to let her rest and rest. If you think about it, you won't bother anymore.
In the early morning, the sun's rays shine softly into the canyon of no return.
"How about the left protection. Is it safe to go ahead?" asked Shadow Ge habitually.
Along the way, Zuo Hu has allowed them to avoid too many dangers, and people no longer doubt his ability to predict dangers, and they are all looking at him with blank eyes at the moment.
Zuo Hu pretended to watch intently, but he was stunned for a long time. Because at this time, no matter how you call the butterfly, you shouldn't be in a hurry, where does he have the ability to know that the front is not safe, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense....
But everyone is waiting for their reply, what should they do?
Shadow Ge cast an inquiring look, "What's wrong?"
"Uh..... That, oh, this place is too big, the road shape is complicated, it's not easy to judge, wait a while....." Zuo Hu used this to shirk and seize the time to find a way. In a hurry, he suddenly remembered that when he was in the ghoul swamp before, Butterfly said, "After this place, at most two thousand miles, there will be a populated land of the sect." Besides, as long as these ghostly things are released by my spirit yuan, naturally I don't dare to get close, even if it is your current soul power, it is easy to destroy ordinary yin ghosts, so even if there is no shadow Ge, you can return to Chiba Palace safely!"
Remembering these words, Zuo Hu's eyes lit up. Secretly said, no wonder the butterfly is so relieved and bold to rest, it turns out that it has arrived in a safe place. It's far from the ghoul swamp, so there's definitely no ghosts, and it's definitely not far from a populated place, and there's definitely no monsters or anything like that.
"Butterfly, this stinky girl, will sell me to test me when she is coming. Thinking about it, Zuo Hu smiled proudly, "It's hard for me." ”
With a plan in mind, Zuo Hu decided to make his own decisions. Swap into a relaxed smile and turn around.
"There is no danger ahead. At most, two thousand miles away, you will reach a populated place. You can rest assured!"
Everyone was relieved to receive the good news of Zuo Hu.
Only Ying Ge raised his eyebrows, as if smiling, "There are people two thousand miles away, how do you know so clearly?"
As soon as Ying Ge asked, Zuo Hu's smile immediately froze!
Oh no! I almost brought out all the words of the butterfly in my mouth!
Not to mention this revelation, he also realized a more dangerous thing. Ying Ge has always had bad intentions towards himself, and the reason why he didn't move himself was because he could sense danger, and now that he was told that there was no danger, wouldn't he lose his value and lose this protective umbrella?
As soon as the words came out, it was like water that had been spilled out, and it could not be recovered.
Zuo Hu really wants to give himself a big mouth at this time....
Sure enough, it's still not deeply involved in the world, it's too simple, it's heartless, and it's a mess up if you're not careful!
Everyone listened to Ying Ge's question, and they were all very curious. What did Zuo Hu rely on to predict danger along the way, and now he even boasted that he could see that there were no people two thousand miles away, so they all turned their eyes to him.
Looking at the puzzled eyes of many people, Zuo Hu was a little at a loss, "I.... I ....."
Unable to think of any good excuses for a while, he couldn't help but get up again.
"Hahaha...."
Unexpectedly, Shadow Ge laughed, and the laughter immediately washed away the awkward atmosphere, "It's okay, everyone has their own secrets. ”
Then he waved his hand, "Let's hurry!"
There is no need to explain in words, but this makes Zuo Hu like a pardon. But my heart was even heavier.
Ying Ge turned over and sat on the back of the bull, seeing that Zuo Hu was in a daze, he said, "What are you still stunned for?" Although there is no danger, you should sit in the car, which can be regarded as a reward for your merit. ”
"Oh...."Left guard could only obediently climb into the car.
