Chapter 167: Re-entering the Demon Valley (Part II)
The town demon valley and the back mountain are the two forbidden places of the Lingshan, the legend says that hundreds of years ago this was one of the main battlefields of the gods and demons, after the defeat of the demon world, its major leaders have been suppressed here with the demon venerable, the god led the god realm of the strongest mana several generals to set up a powerful magic circle, and by the then head of the Lingshan painting hidden road chief sacrificed himself to suppress, it is said that his soul has been hidden in the magic circle for hundreds of years, firmly guarding this powerful formation, any demons and monsters do not want to approach here.
In order to be able to enter the valley smoothly this time, Li Wanxiao specially asked Yun Feiyang to get a lot of legends and classics about the war between gods and demons back then. During the day, he went out with Dugu Che to wander around the Demon Valley, and at night he picked up the lights and read at night, such a diligent and hard-working little girl made Dugu Che couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Wanxiao, come and eat bird's nest. ”
Late at night, Dugu Che saw that she still had no intention of resting, and was worried that she would burn her body, so he quietly went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of bird's nest porridge. Dugu Che's craftsmanship is very good, the fire is very accurate, just opened the food box, a burst of sweet aroma came to the face, and Li Wanxiao, who was originally sleepy and dozing off, suddenly came to the spirit.
"Bird's nest, did you cook it?" Holding the bowl and stirring it gently with a small spoon, Li Wanxiao stared at Dugu Che with an incredible face. She suddenly found that this man was very magical, as if there was nothing he would not do, the so-called upper hall, lower kitchen, that's it, right?
"Well, I'm not proficient in it for the first time, do you taste it?" He deliberately added wolfberries and rock sugar to it, and carefully adjusted the taste, I don't know if this girl will like it.
Scooping a small spoonful into my mouth, the sweet taste spreads, and my body is much warmer.
"Dugu Che, you are so good. Looking at him with a smile, Li Wanxiao couldn't help but praise it, and regretted it after speaking. How could a girl praise a big man so bluntly?
"I know. Someone was ashamed to say it.
"Why aren't you modest and too thick-skinned?"
"In front of you, it doesn't have to be like this. Dugu Che chuckled, and then deflected his words, "Are you interested in the battle of gods and demons?"
"Well, sort of. Li Wanxiao didn't hide it from him, and said directly, "I have liked to watch stories such as fairies and monsters since I was a child, and I always feel that those things are far away from me, as far away as the moon in the water." But this time when I came to Lingshan, I suddenly discovered that the legendary battle between gods and demons really existed, and those defeated demons were imprisoned here, as long as they stood on the edge of the cliff and took a look, maybe they could see the prison they were in. It's a particularly strange feeling, a feeling like a childhood dream coming true. ”
Yes, for such a teenage girl, no matter how irreparable the consequences of the war between gods and demons hundreds of years ago were caused, it was just a paragraph of rhetoric in the book, and who could see the real merits and demerits?
Dugu Che quietly flipped through the books she had read, which were full of pictures and texts, the gods were all shining and had the momentum of looking down on all beings, and the demon was the image of fangs and claws, green fangs, and the appearance made people very scared.
I have to say that people in the world are always accustomed to imagining things they have not seen from their own point of view. As if the devil must be extremely ugly, the god must have a thousand rays of light around the body. This kind of misunderstanding in the world has lasted for thousands of years, and Dugu Che has never intended to subvert the image of the demon world. After all, everyone in the world is drunk and I am sober, and he doesn't bother to justify these things out of nothing.
"Can we go down and have a look, do you want to go?"
Li Wanxiao bit his lip and didn't know how to respond, he had even sketched a scene of Infernal Hell in his mind at this time, as if the place where those imprisoned demons were Infernal Hell. The cruel, bloody and terrifying scene is the favorite place for those demons to gather.
The two chatted in the room for an unknown amount of time, until the sky revealed the white of the fish's belly, and Li Wanxiao also leaned on Dugu Che's shoulder and slept deeply.
It was a night so peaceful.
"Away from the girl, the three poles on the sun are still sleeping, what a big lazy worm. ”
When I opened my eyes in a daze, I saw Mengzi's child standing in front of the bed with her hands on her hips, looking at her with a sneering face.
Li Wanxiao rubbed her eyes and found out that this was not a dream, stinky boy, since he came to Lingshan, he didn't know where to run, such a big thing happened up and down Lingshan, this stinky boy is afraid that he doesn't know at all.
"Stinky boy, why are you here?" yawned and glanced at him sleepily.
"Ligirl, you shouldn't have slept too much, stupid, right? I've always been around here, and I'm still asking my eldest brother for help. "Mengzi raised his face in the past two days, and his little appearance of Tsundere was very cute.
"Mengzi, tell me honestly, are you doing anything bad behind my back?"
"Hey, conscience of heaven and earth, although I haven't been with you these days, I have serious things to do, such as keeping an eye on a person, looking at a person, etc., I am the best at this kind of work. Yumeko patted her chest triumphantly. The reason why he has been so busy these days that he can't see anyone is that he was sent out by Dugu Che to be stalked, and the unlucky guy who was watched was naturally the pair of seemingly father and son who met at the inn, but he was actually full of fairy spirit.
"Really?" Hearing him say this, Li Wanxiao suddenly remembered something, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Don't go like this, you go out with us tomorrow, and we will meet on the cliff of the Demon Valley." ”
"Stinky girl, what the hell do you want to do?"
"I don't do anything, I just want to go to the bottom of the valley and see the scenery there. ”
Mengzi's eyes widened when she heard this, "You're going to the Demon Valley?"
Mengzi is also a person in the demon world, he naturally understands what it means to suppress the demon valley, that is where the demon venerable is, covered by the formation layer by layer, a little demon like him, as long as he dares to take half a step, he will inevitably be split into pieces by the heavenly thunder in the magic circle, and his soul will be destroyed.
Li Wanxiao nodded, "I mean tomorrow you will stay on the edge of the cliff, just the two of us will need to go in, and you will be responsible for picking us up." ”
"But...... It's too dangerous. His gaze couldn't help but drift to Dugu Che, and Mengzi was a little worried. Dugu Che's identity is well known to them, the magic circle is by no means a joke, Dugu Che's mana has not yet fully recovered, and if you enter rashly at this time, you will be in danger if you are not careful.
"When did you stinky boy become afraid of danger? Aren't you just worried that he will be hurt, it's okay, it's okay, what are you afraid of with me protecting you?"
looked at Li Wanxiao weirdly, and I didn't know if this girl didn't know the identity of the man next to her, which was really worrying. Mengzi saw that Dugu Che was calm, so he also relieved his heart a little, the lord has always done things safely, since he acquiesced this time, then it is very likely that there is a solution in the chest.
Having said that, as everyone knows, Dugu Che is also giving it a go. He thought carefully about how he had escaped from the Demon Valley with Wanxiao in the first place. It's nothing more than borrowing the breath of a mortal to cover up the breath on his body, and because he was weak at that time, he escaped smoothly, and now that I think about it, it's really lucky.
Mengzi didn't say much anymore, anyway, everything has Dugu Che in front of him, what is he afraid of? It's a big deal not to enter the formation, just look at the excitement on the edge of the cliff, and there will be no danger if you think about it.
In this way, after the three of them finally determined the route into the valley, Li Wanxiao led the two to the edge of the cliff. I still remember that it was here that she was frightened by the half-demon plum and fell off the cliff more than half a year ago, and she was on the line between life and death, and then she met Dugu Che.
Now that I think about it, what Master said is indeed right, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and that fall off the cliff is worth it.
Carefully recalling the route they took when they walked in the valley, Li Wanxiao quickly found her memory and found the fork in the road when they came out of the valley, and it was here that she met the Lingshan disciples who came to the rescue, and she was very impressed by them.
The three of them are divided into two ways, Mengzi is responsible for answering around the Town Demon Valley, they go in directly, it is best not to get lost, if you really can't find the way, you can also let Dugu Che use a spell to spread the word to Mengzi to find Yun Feiyang for help.
Walking down the mountain road, Li Wanxiao, who revisited her hometown, couldn't help but be deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery in the Demon Valley. For some reason, the flowers and plants here are more beautiful and vivid than the outside, the lush woods and meadows, the crisp birdsong from time to time in the mountains, and a small river in the distance, the clear water of the river flashes in the sun.
Who would have thought that in the eyes of the world, the Shura Hell where several major demon kings in the demon world are imprisoned is such a fairy scene, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a paradise.
"Dugu Che, do you feel that not all the truths in the book are true? The scene described in the book flashed in his mind, and he shook his head helplessly, "It seems that reading thousands of books is really better than traveling thousands of miles." ”
"The same was true of the junction of man and demon a long time ago. Dugu Che said slowly. The memories of the past thousands of years seemed to be fleeting, and he always thought that he had forgotten them, or he didn't care at all, but he never thought that those beautiful scenes that had happened or appeared in front of him had been unconsciously burned in his mind.
"According to what you say, is it true that the fusion of the breath of the mortal world and the demon world will make everything better?"
Dugu Che's eyes darkened, and he responded, "Maybe." ”
Walking by the river, I saw a dark house in the distance, which seemed to have been inhabited by no one for a long time, and looked very dilapidated.
Li Wanxiao was stunned, and he couldn't imagine that they just relied on the way they stumbled out in their memories to successfully find the place where a demon general in the valley was imprisoned.
"This place is so familiar, I remember you seemed to come out of this hole with me?"
