Chapter 60: A Safe Return I
Tan Shaobai looked at Zhishui's face, and a strange feeling rose in his heart, and Zhishui at this time seemed to be much more humanized. His previous resentment towards her is gone. For the events of that day, I felt a little guilty in my heart. He sighed lightly and said, "Yes, how can we still find the way now?" It really can't be done, we can only fly to the sky and look for it again. ”
Zhishui shook his head and said, "With the experience of the three-headed dragon, don't you have a long lesson? Once it flies into the sky, it will be easy to be spotted, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will not be so lucky. ”
Tan Shaobai secretly said in his heart, the three-headed Jiaojiao will not attack, it is now in my Qiankun Ring. But of course he couldn't say that, and when he was hesitating how to find Ethereal, the red dragon's voice sounded again, "You idiot. I don't know how to deal with such a simple thing. You don't know the road, the three-headed worm has lived around here for tens of thousands of years, don't it know either?"
Tan Shaobai suddenly understood, and tentatively called out to the three-headed Jiao in his heart, and said, "Three-headed brother, can I trouble you......"
The helpless voice of the three-headed Jiaojiao sounded, "Okay, you just follow my instructions." ”
Tan Shaobai was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said to Zhishui: "Senior sister, I have a way." I have a connection with Miao Miao deep down, and as long as we follow this connection, we will definitely be able to find them. ”
Zhishui was not excited because she could find Miao Miao and others, but her heart was a little gloomy. She found that as long as she thought that Tan Shaobai and Miao were husband and wife, her heart would hurt inexplicably. He nodded and said, "You lead the way." ”
Tan Shaobai didn't realize Zhishui's current mood, his heart was full of ethereal thoughts, and under the guidance of the three-headed Jiaojiao, he quickly galloped away in one direction.
…………
Yi tribe.
The Yi are one of the few peace-loving ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang. Their people were simple and lived on the edge of southern Xinjiang near the Zhao and Song kingdoms. The Yi people live in wooden houses built by themselves in the mountains, and usually live by raising silkworms and planting some crops, and the wild fruits and small animals in the large forests of southern Xinjiang are also their food sources. The number of Yi people is not large, and the total number is only more than 20,000. It can't be compared to the millions of people. Because they are not aggressive, they are constantly excluded, and now they can only live a hard life on the edge of southern Xinjiang. However, they were not dissatisfied with the hardships of life. They always believed that Heaven would bless them with these good people.
In the largest courtyard in the center of the Yi tribe, Miao was constantly anxiously walking back and forth. Hongji, Xiao Jiling, and the Huang Han brothers and sisters all had solemn expressions on their faces. On that day, Ethereal laid down the ban and took the lead in opening the way. She kept forging ahead through all obstacles. Hongji and Little Ghost followed. The shock of the three-headed Jiaojiao to the ethereal was too great, so that she was very confused in her heart, in her mind, no matter how strong the three-headed Jiaojiao was, the prohibition she laid when she was leaving could last for a while, enough time for her people to escape. After running out for an hour, she felt that there was no more threat around her with her spiritual sense, and then she stopped. But when she looked back, she was stunned. Because, only Hongji, Little Clever and Huang Han followed. Tan Shaobai and Zhishui Hongfei disappeared. Hongzhi and Xiao Clever also stopped and found that Tan Shaobai and Zhishui did not follow. Everyone was in a hurry. Without any hesitation, they risked being killed by the three-headed Jiaojiao and turned back to look for it. However, the road in the mountains and forests of southern Xinjiang is complicated, and they have been running for so long, how can they easily find it? Ethereal endured the sadness in her heart and decided to go to the Yi tribe first and ask the Yi people to help them. With the token left to her by the Yi people, she easily gained the trust of the Yi people in this tribe. However, when they told what had happened to them, the Yi people refused to take them to the lake. Because, the three-headed Jiaojiao is the self-proclaimed protector of the Yi people. At the beginning, the Qiang people had invaded the only land of the Yi people several times, but they were all frightened away by the three-headed Jiao. In the hearts of the Yi people, the three-headed Jiaojiao is definitely like a god-like existence, how dare they offend? In desperation, Miao Miao had no choice but to ask the Yi patriarch to send people to search in the mountains and forests, hoping to find some clues. However, a few days have passed, and there is no music training at all. The Yi people brought back yesterday that they had found a clearing more than ten miles away from the lake where the forest had completely disappeared, as if a fire had once descended from heaven. After Miao Miao and the others heard the news, their hearts sank to the bottom, and they all understood that if they faced each other, Tan Shaobai and Zhishui would never be spared in front of the three-headed Jiao. Although the Yi people are still helping them find it, their hearts are already cold.
The ethereal eyes are a little demented, and there is no trace of brilliance on the beautiful face, and she actually "lost" the person she loves the most, and now she has mixed feelings in her heart, and her cold heart can no longer be described as painful.
The courtyard door opened, and a middle-aged man in his forties walked in, dressed in bright Yi costumes and wearing a hat with three brocade feathers. This person was average-looking, but he looked very kind, and behind him, there were four young people of the Yi nationality who looked a little tired. As soon as they came in, the ethereal godless eyes suddenly flashed a hint of brilliance, and he flew up to meet them and asked, "Patriarch Riqi, how is it?
Ri Ni sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said, "I'm sorry, senior." The mountains and forests of southern Xinjiang are vast, and we have searched all the neighborhoods, but we have not even heard any news. I'm really sorry. ”
The ethereal and excited expression suddenly became depressed, and she stood there with a white face, her whole body trembling slightly.
Ri Ni looked at the delicate face in front of him, and sighed lightly: "Senior, don't worry, I will definitely send someone to find it again." ”
Miao Miao laughed miserably, and choked up: "Can I not be in a hurry? I even lost my husband, can I not be in a hurry? The three-headed Jiaojiao has the strength close to the immortal beast, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they will not be spared." It's all my fault, if I hadn't been so confused at the time, I wouldn't have gotten lost with them. If everyone gathers together, at least there is still a fight. Shaobai, did you just go like this? It's all my fault. Shaobai, as long as you can come back, I am willing even if I pay for my life. ”
"No, my good wife, how can I be willing to give your life, as long as you are not separated from me forever, I am satisfied. ”
The light flashed, and Ethereal rose from the ground in an exclamation, the breath was so familiar, there was no resistance, she hugged the neck of the person holding her tightly, and refused to say anything to part. What suddenly appeared was Tan Shaobai and Zhishui. Under the guidance of the three-headed Jiaojiao, after nearly a day's trekking, they finally found the Yi tribe. Through his spiritual sense, Tan Shaobai clearly felt the ethereal position, and rushed over with excitement, just in time to hear the ethereal choked cry. In fact, if it weren't for the ethereal confusion, he should have been able to find out when he and Zhishui approached within five miles of the Yi tribe.
Zhishui looked at Tan Shaobai and Miao hugging tightly, and his heart was mixed, and he couldn't help but turn his head.
Hongzhi and the others all came up, and the little wit slapped Tan Shaobai on the shoulder, and said, "Dead Shaobai, I thought you were really dead?
Tan Shaobai smiled and said: "Of course, with my ethereal wife waiting for me, how could I die so easily? wife, let go, I won't run, if you hug it again, your husband will die." ”
Miao Miao relaxed her arms at this time, but she was tightly clinging to Tan Shaobai's arms and refused to get up at all.
The patriarch of the Yi tribe, Ri Tan, looked at the scene in front of him in surprise and couldn't help but be stunned. Ethereal in his heart, she is an incomparably pure goddess, he never imagined that the goddess's husband would be a man who doesn't even have hair and eyebrows, and looks very ordinary.
Hongji sighed and said, "Big brother, where is your hair? The scalp is so cleanly shaved. Hearing his words, Miao Miao was startled, and hurriedly looked up at Tan Shaobai. I saw Tan Shaobai looking embarrassed, and his hair and eyebrows were indeed all gone. The bare skin looked extremely delicate, hugged Tan Shaobai tightly, and said a little nervously: "Husband, you, you don't really want to be a monk." Don't you want me anymore?"
This is the first time that Miao Miao has called her husband in front of others, Tan Shaobai was happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't listen to Xiaozhi's nonsense, there are so many things in the world that attract me, how can I be willing to be a monk? ”
Miao Miao breathed a sigh of relief, got off the ground from Tan Shaobai's arms, stood beside him, and grabbed his big hand tightly, as if he was afraid that he would disappear. Tan Shaobai looked at the others, only to see that the eyes of Hongzhi, Xiao Jiling and Huang Han's brothers and sisters were flashing with tears of excitement.
Huang Sui ran to Zhishui's side, took her hand, and asked with concern, "Master, are you okay?" ”
Zhishui's eyes turned red, stroked Huang Sui's long hair, and said, "Don't worry, the master can't die yet." Xiaosui, the master didn't hurt you in vain. When this trip to Southern Xinjiang is over, you can return to Qingyun Sect with me. ”
Miao Miao heard the sound of stopping the water, and then came back to his senses, remembering that he had just put all his heart on Tan Shaobai, he couldn't help but blush slightly, let go of Tan Shaobai's hand, and walked to the water stopper, "Senior sister, are you okay." What the hell has happened these days?"
Zhishui glanced at the misty with complicated eyes, lowered his head and said, "Senior sister, I'm fine." You still have to ask Tan Shaobai about the past few days, I'm a little tired, and I want to find a place to rest first. ”
Ethereal paused, and in an instant, she clearly felt that there seemed to be an extra layer of estrangement between herself and this junior sister. He sighed lightly and said, "Okay then." Patriarch Riqi, please help my junior sister arrange a place to rest. ”
Ri Ni said respectfully: "Congratulations on the reunion of several seniors, this senior, please come with me." Zhishui nodded, and followed Ri Qi into the wooden house in the courtyard, Huang Sui glanced at Tan Shaobai, and also followed.
Miao, Hongzhi and others surrounded Tan Shaobai in the middle, waiting for him to tell. Due to the presence of Huang Han, Tan Shaobai did not tell everything, and only told them what Zhishui knew. Speaking of thrills, Miao Miao couldn't help but cry out in shock, and by the time Tan Shaobai finished speaking, she was already in a cold sweat. Tan Shaobai smiled and said, "That's it." The three-headed Jiaojiao is simply terrifying, and its strength is not at all something we can fight against. Oh, by the way, little Ghost, how did you offend it in the first place and get it to attack?"
The little ghost scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said, "I, I was running in front that day, and suddenly I saw the light flashing in front of me, so I ran over excitedly to see what it was." As a result, I saw the weakest head of the three-headed Jiaojiao spitting out Neidan in the lake water to absorb the aura of heaven, earth, sun and moon. I thought at the time that the monster's Neidan must be very replenished, so I wanted to steal its Neidan and eat it myself. But who knows, that guy reacted extremely quickly, and instead of stealing its inner dan, I almost got eaten by it. ”
Listening to the little clever words, Tan Shaobai and the others were stunned. Tan Shaobai, Hongzhi and Ethereal hands knocked on the little ghost head at the same time. The little ghost also knew that he was wrong, so he lowered his head and made a pitiful look there, and said, "I know that I was wrong, and I won't provoke others casually in the future." ”
Tan Shaobai said in his heart, what the red dragon said was right, the three-headed Jiaojiao would not take the initiative to attack, it was indeed because the little clever spirit wanted to snatch its inner pill that it started, everything was the fault of his own side! Fortunately, it didn't make a big mistake. In a deep voice, he said, "Little Spirit, you have to remember that although we are cultivators, there are many, many creatures and hermits in this world who are stronger than us, and once we do something wrong, it is very likely that our own lives and those of others will be in danger." And, before you do anything, you have to think about whether you are doing the right thing and whether you should do it. Like this time, the conflict between us and the three-headed Jiao is entirely because of you, the three-headed Jiao has tens of thousands of years of cultivation, and its ferocity has long disappeared, let alone feed on people and animals, if you don't take the initiative to provoke it, it won't attack us at all. If you see it again in the future, you have to apologize to it. ”——
The little clever looked at Tan Shaobai and said, "Apologize, then I won't eat it." Don't talk about me, I'll know what to do later. Shaobai, this time it's me who is not good, and I almost killed everyone. As he spoke, it couldn't help but bow its head.
Tan Shaobai couldn't bear to be too harsh on it, patted it on the shoulder, and said, "Forget it, be careful in the future." Well, wife, I'm hungry, it seems that the Yi patriarch is very in awe of you, let him get me something to eat, otherwise, your husband will starve to death. ”
Listening to the little clever words, Tan Shaobai and the others were stunned. Tan Shaobai, Hongzhi and Ethereal hands knocked on the little ghost head at the same time. The little ghost also knew that he was wrong, so he lowered his head and made a pitiful look there, and said, "I know that I was wrong, and I won't provoke others casually in the future." ”
Tan Shaobai said in his heart, what the red dragon said was right, the three-headed Jiaojiao would not take the initiative to attack, it was indeed because the little clever spirit wanted to snatch its inner pill that it started, everything was the fault of his own side!
