Chapter 283: The Fox Works

Bypassing a few woods and walking into the back mountain of Qinglong, the scenery is gradually a little different from the front mountain. The mountain path is getting narrower and narrower, overgrown with weeds in the rugged winding, and the loneliness of the mountains and forests is becoming more and more empty.

Old trees and vines can be seen everywhere, most of them are thicker and older than the front mountain, and the ruins left by the former palaces and pavilions are also seen here, either hidden by dense woods, or hidden behind the deeper mountains.

A few strange beast roars floated from the depths of the distant mountains, and I don't know where there was a demon beast roaring at the sky. The white fox was a little nervous, and leaned a little closer to Shen Shi's side, and kept looking around, as if he also felt that this place was full of danger.

Shen Shi walked forward with the shaved fox, his eyes identifying the direction among the mountains, and his expression was still calm. The last time he came out of the demon clan's underground palace, when he went down the mountain, he met Liu Yue and others from the Heavenly Sword Palace, and the road he walked was not this one, but he still roughly recorded the terrain in his heart that day, although the Qinglong Mountain Range was large, but the general environment still didn't change too much, so after walking for a while, he roughly determined the direction, and then walked in that direction.

Unconsciously, the mountain road under his feet was gone, and there was a mountain field in front of him, not a forest or a thorny shrub overgrown with weeds, and before he had gone far, the white fox was a little bitter, and his body was scraped white and red by all kinds of wild grasses and thorny shrubs. In fact, it stands to reason that it should be like a fish in water when a wild beast drills into this mountain forest, but who made it a fox in the far north of the snowfield, and it is rare to find even a decent tree in that place, let alone this kind of dense forest.

Shen Shi glanced at it, shook his head, leaned over and hugged the bald fox, and after a moment of silence, he directly took out the Falling Snow Sword, and then when the sword light flashed, it flew into the air. Flying in the air is naturally much more comfortable than walking on the ground, but this bald fox looks very flawed, and his courage is also very small, walking on the ground has been screaming and complaining, flying into the air and looking at it and being scared half to death, subconsciously grabbing Shen Shi's body, not daring to look down at all, just screaming non-stop.

Shen Shi didn't care about it, he saw the direction clearly in mid-air, and galloped all the way away, so through the mountains and mountains, it didn't take long for him to see the ruins of the garden where he was when he escaped from the demon clan's underground palace. In the middle of this, Shen Shi did feel that there were several malicious and vicious eyes on the ground under him, and it was indeed a very dangerous thing to fly in the sky in a place where this kind of demon beast was everywhere. But in the end, for some reason, those dangerous auras didn't really turn into attacks on him.

Falling back to the ground, the ruins in front of him suddenly evoked Shen Shi's memories, a few months ago, he escaped from the demon clan's underground palace here with Zhong Qinglu, but now that he thinks about it, he feels like he is suddenly separated from the world.

He sighed slightly, his expression a little gloomy, but he quickly picked himself up and walked deeper into the ruins. Walking all the way, Shen Shi's gaze swept around from time to time, the last time he came out, there was a fierce demon beast here that ambushed him and Zhong Qinglu, and here in the Qinglong Mountain Range, it was almost impossible to have a completely safe place.

Sure enough, before he had taken a few steps, the white fox suddenly screamed and jumped backwards, and in a collapsed broken house in front of him, a toad with a brown body and a body almost the size of a water tank slowly crawled out. With the appearance of this huge toad, a fishy smell suddenly floated in the air, and then look at the pitted appearance on the toad's back, a long scarlet tongue kept expanding and retracting in the mouth, obviously a monster beast with a highly poisonous body and very untouchable.

Shen Shi looked up at the sky, and saw that it was noon at this moment, the sun was in the sky, and the sun was very bright. The light of the sky fell on this ruin, and the hideous-looking toad demon beast was extremely clear, and even the sarcomas on its body could be seen clearly.

Shen Shi frowned, his eyes were a little more cautious, such a thing as a toad, even if it was cultivated into a demon beast, but in nature it was still a person who liked yin and loved dampness and hated bright light and dry heat, and at this moment, there was no moist water flow in the land near him, and this toad appeared here, which was a little unusual.

"Quack...... Quack ......"

The two eyes of the toad on the opposite side of the brain melon seeds stared at Shen Shi, with undisguised hostility in their eyes, and their cries were dull as thunder, as if they were demonstrating.

Shen Shi's eyebrows suddenly raised, and he didn't make a move immediately, but stared at the toad for a moment, and instead took a few steps back. When the white fox saw Shen Shi retreating, he naturally followed him backwards for a distance.

The toad stared at the two big eyes, watched Shen Shi retreat, and called "quack" twice, but this time, the voice was a little quieter, and it seemed to be somewhat satisfied with Shen Shi's actions.

Shen Shi's eyes flashed with a bit of thought, as if he had thought of something, but it seemed that he had no intention of deliberately provoking the toad who was lying outside the broken house, and took the white fox to the side in a circle, but walked into the distance.

The toad watched Shen Shi walk away, the wariness in his eyes slowly disappeared, and then he looked around cautiously again, and after making sure that there was no danger nearby, he turned around and slowly returned to the half-collapsed dilapidated house.

The dilapidated house was supposed to be a very beautiful small building, but now that it has been raining for many years, it has long been dilapidated, and even the walls on all sides have collapsed. But in general, the frame of this building is still there, barely blocking a little bit of the light from the sky, making the dilapidated house look very dark.

But in this dim light, in a corner of this dilapidated house, there was a small ball of light, the whole body was like a soft little bubble floating in the air, and a little light flickered in the bubble, like a silver starlight gently undulating in the deepest night sky, which looked extremely beautiful.

The big toad crawled back, without looking at the other places, and walked straight back to the small silver light that could not see one percent of its body, first stretched out its head and sniffed lightly, and I don't know what the breath was, so that it suddenly showed a look of intoxication, and then it was satisfied to lie down next to this silver star-like crystal clear light, like a guard, and it didn't take long for a pair of big eyes to slowly close.

In the distance outside the house, Shen Shi took the white fox around in a circle, walked to a dilapidated pavilion in front of him, and after it seemed to be dozens of feet away from the dilapidated house, he suddenly stopped, and then looked back at the dilapidated house.

After a while, he suddenly called out and said:

"Fox. ”

"Yo-yo?"

Shen Shi lowered his head and glanced at it, his face seemed to be smiling, for some reason, the white fox suddenly became a little nervous, and his body shrank a little. After a while, Shen Shi looked at him and said, "The two of us came here all the way, you said that you always eat and drink for nothing, you must be embarrassed, right? Well, if you don't speak, that's what you think." So, now there's something you need to do. ”

(It's the last day of December.) ）
