Chapter 91: The Half-Demon Plum Reappears
The cold lotus demon quietly watched the slowly moving light on the Gobi, it was a little girl walking with her head bowed with a torch, and there was nothing around her.
After looking at her for a while, he didn't feel anything abnormal, except for a little surprise that the deserted Gobi was broken into by a helpless little girl. Flick the sleeves and float away. He had already inspected the miasma forest and the entire Gobi twice, and found no trace of the demon dragon's activities at all, and he was worried about the war in Nancheng, so he set off to go back, as for the rumors that someone saw the demon dragon here, he would not take it to heart.
The Demon Venerable is still suppressed in the seal, who else can summon the Demon Dragon? leaning on the little girl holding the torch below?
Amusing!
In fact, it wasn't Dugu Che who would be invisible, but Mengzi's instinctive hiding technique at night helped them escape.
"Mengzi, is it necessary for you to play stealth in a place where this kind of bird doesn't?" Jun Wuxian twitched the corner of his mouth, and looked at the stinky boy with a speechless expression.
"What do you know, the stealth technique can only be used at night to exert its greatest effect!" Mengzi raised his neck and proudly showed off, "This is the young master's housekeeping skills, you can't learn it if you want to!"
After saying that, Yumeko raised her hand to draw a circle and used a spell to cover everyone. This kind of stealth technique is his innate ability, so it is effortless to apply, but he thinks it is quite fun for everyone to be in such a hurry!
It's just that no one expected that Mengzi's whim helped them evade the investigation of the Cold Lotus Demon, which was really a coincidence!
Everyone is already very tired from hurrying, and they are too lazy to take care of this playful stinky boy at this time, anyway, it is not in the way, it is good to let him play with himself, the provincial kid is bored, and his mouth keeps talking but makes everyone idle.
As he walked, Dugu Che suddenly stepped forward and took the torch in Liwanxiao's hand, frowned and said, "If you are tired, go slowly, and I'll get the torch." ”
Trying to raise his eyes to look at Dugu Che's handsome face, he snorted twice and continued to walk with his head down. Her physical strength is limited, even if she speaks, she will waste energy, in order not to lag behind, Li Wanxiao can only grit her teeth and silently follow.
What happened before made her haunted, and she always felt ashamed of everyone. Every time she encountered difficulties and dangers along the way, a few of them helped deal with them, obviously this was her own business, but she always troubled everyone, especially Dugu Che, which made her feel very useless. It's just walking now, and you can't let them worry anymore.
After walking for a while, Dugu Che handed the torch in his hand to Han Qingbo beside him, he walked forward quickly, and put Li Wanxiao on his back without saying anything.
"Sleep when you're tired, I won't delay the trip if I carry you on my back, don't worry." ”
The clear and deep voice carried a trace of imperceptible pity, and Li Wanxiao opened his mouth but said nothing, obediently lying on his broad back and letting him carry it. The mind came to mind that when they first met, he led him out of the valley with his back, and then comforted him who was seriously injured and borrowed him in Lingshan for a while.
I don't know how long it took, she felt like she hadn't slept, and it was as if she had a dream, and there was him and her in the dream.
"This girl doesn't know the blessings she has cultivated in several lifetimes, although her life experience is miserable, but she can only be taken care of by you. Han Qingbo took in the movements of the two, and he had to admit that it was this man who knew Li Wanxiao the most, and it was also this man who felt the most sorry for her.
Dugu Che didn't respond, he felt that the stubborn girl on his back seemed to be asleep, so he slowed down his steps, tried to stabilize his body, and even deliberately lowered his breathing a lot.
The group walked from sunset to sunrise, Xiao Youze shrunk into Liwanxiao's arms and slept Zhengxiang, and even Mengzi stopped chattering. They gradually increased their speed this night after Dugu Che picked up and left Wanxiao, and they had already walked a third of the way in just one night, and such a smooth journey made everyone feel more relaxed and happy in addition to feeling tired.
They found a large weathered rock and sat down to rest. Dugu Che gently patted Li Wanxiao and handed the kettle to her lips.
"Drink some water first, there's still food in the bag, I'll get it." ”
After a few sips of water from his hand, his thirsty throat was much more comfortable. Li Wanxiao leaned on the luggage packages piled up by everyone, silently watching Dugu Che's personal work, he didn't eat or drink, broke the remaining dry food into small pieces and soaked it in water into a paste, and then pinched a small spoon and fed her one bite at a time.
With so many people watching, no matter how thick-skinned Li Wanxiao Rao is, he can't help everyone's gaze. coughed lightly and said weakly: "I'll do it myself......"
Shaking his head slightly, Dugu Che said lightly: "Save some effort, I'll come." ”
Li Wanxiao is an ordinary mortal girl in the end, and her physical strength and energy can't be compared with these demon world bosses who haven't eaten, drank, or slept for thousands of years and are still full of energy, even Han Qingbo has been cultivating in Lingshan since she was a child, and her physique is different from ordinary people, only she is a little weak chicken.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that everyone is easily influenced by Dugu Che and takes care of her together. The fruit trees in the Gobi are extremely rare, not to mention this kind of border Gobi where even birds can't fly, everyone was surprised to meet the fruit trees last night, no matter what, this at least proves that there are other life in this wasteland besides poisonous rats.
took the fruit and stuffed two pieces into Li Wanxiao's mouth, the sweet taste spread in her mouth, and Li Wanxiao suddenly came to her senses, "What kind of fruit is this, it's so delicious, where did you get it?"
"The secret of heaven must not be revealed!" Jun Wuxian squinted with a smile and put on an unfathomable expression.
"Cut, if you don't say it, you won't say it!" Li Wanxiao, who had slept for most of the night, obviously lost the listlessness she had when she was on the road last night, pouted and continued to be fed by Dugu Che.
"A few people are in a hurry, I wonder if the little woman is late?"
A clear and enchanting female voice floated faintly, pouring into her ears with endless ethereal charm.
"Ah, female ghost!" Yumeko pointed to a long-haired woman in red not far away, and the corners of her eyebrows twitched.
"It's not a shame, you're a demon, you're afraid of a ghost!" Jun Wuxian listened to the voice and saw the other party's figure, and at a glance he recognized the identity of the woman, and raised his voice, "Miss Mei came at the right time, we just had dinner, come over for a meal?"
The half-demon plum hid her face and chuckled, her figure flashed a few times and appeared in front of everyone, she first respectfully blessed her body with Dugu Che, "The little woman is late, please don't blame the son." ”
Dugu Che said hello with a shallow chin, and then sat next to Li Wanxiao to watch the half-demon plum greet everyone.
"Miss Mei, I haven't seen you for most of the month, don't come unharmed. Jun Wuxian said with a smile.
"You're polite, I didn't come alone this time, and I brought an interesting child to meet you. The half-demon Mei swept the pale Li Wan smile, and said in her heart that this girl is really afraid of herself to the core, it seems that she will treat her well in the future, lest the lord hate the little lady who bullied him in the future.
If the smile of the spring breeze looks bright and charming in the sun, he stretched out his right hand, his slender and white fingers were wrapped around a trace of dark red breath, and a gorgeous rose bloomed in his palm. Immediately after, a dark blue point of light floated out of the center of the flower.
A man in a blue dark flower robe slowly emerged as the light fell to the ground, with a slender and straight figure and a warm and humble smile, so that Li Wanxiao recognized the handsome boy in front of him at a glance.
"Brother Yin!"
His appearance shocked Li Wanxiao beyond measure, and the things he had experienced before in his other courtyard suddenly came to his heart.
Yin Xiaoran's appearance was something that everyone didn't expect, and even Dugu Che also stopped slightly and glanced at him.
"Smile, long time no see. Yin Xiaoran, who hadn't seen her for a long time, still looked warm and moist, and when she laughed, her harmless squinting eyes left a deep impression on Li Wanxiao.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him strangely, Yin Xiaoran felt a little embarrassed, and introduced himself unhurriedly: "My name is Yin Xiaoran, I am a descendant of the Water Demon Lord, I met the girl by chance before and was helped by her, this time I am here to repay the favor." ”
It's a bit far-fetched to say that. In fact, Li Wanxiao didn't help him much at the beginning, and he also sent a life-saving pendant to help her prevent disasters, the two don't owe each other, at most they are friends who meet in Pingshui.
"I have come this time to bring you water on the behest of General May. Yin Xiaoran couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he said this, the only son of the Water Demon Lord turned out to be a little guy who brought water to people, if it weren't for the half-demon Mei who came to him in person, saying that he was trapped in the Gobi without water and food from Wanxiao and his party, it was pitiful, he felt that he would not do such a face-damaging thing.
Raised his hand to conjure up two pots of pure water, handed them to the little dreamer who was stunned on the side, and greeted him by the way: "Little nightmare, we meet again." ”
"Eh, yes, hehe, Yin Gongzi is good. Mengzi carefully took the kettle, trying to calm down the shocked mood, he suddenly felt that since he met Li Wanxiao, he unconsciously met with a lot of demon world bosses, except for Dugu Che, the lord not to mention, first the dragon saw the head and tail of the half-demon plum, and then the ancient demon dragon Youze who lived in a simple place, and now there is a descendant of the water demon lord who has been rumored to have disappeared for a long time.
Obediently, this girl doesn't seem to have any skills, but she has made friends with very capable big people!
Han Qingbo, who was standing silently on the side, had a hint of gloom in his eyes, and he had always remembered that Yun Feiyang was seriously injured by the half-demon plum, including his fight with him in Hezhen, and the fact that he was scratched on the chest and almost died. At this time, two demons with extremely high status in the demon world appeared here, and they didn't know what their plans were.
Seeing that everyone had doubts on their faces, Yin Xiaoran exhaled a sullen breath and slowly explained the reason why he came to the Gobi.
"I'm not here just to bring you water. Saying this, Yin Xiaoran shook his head and continued, "My father has a great relationship with the father of General Mu who guards the border, and a few of them are going to the junction of humans and demons, maybe they can help in the future." ”
