Chapter 504: Flames in the Cave
In the narrow cave, a small pile of flames gradually extinguished, wisps of green smoke came out, the dim light swayed, there was no firewood in the cave, and none of the three demon clans sitting in a circle wanted to get out of the cave, they all sat there dumbfounded, motionless, and did not squeak, as if they could make the flames burn again with their eyes.
The fire became smaller and smaller, and the stout two-horned beast demon turned his back to the hole, and then took off his leather jacket and threw it into the fire without saying a word, and the flames ignited again, happily devouring the dry fur, emitting the burnt smell of roasted meat, and the rough skin of the beast demon looked like a piece of leather armor.
The thin half-demon with three eyes next to him hesitated for a moment, took off his jacket and threw it into the fire, his skinny body trembling obviously.
The little demon facing the entrance of the cave looked like a seven or eight-year-old child, with red lips and white teeth, and delicate skin that seemed to drip water. The cicada-winged demon only wrapped a small piece of animal skin around his waist, obviously not wanting to contribute, so he blew a few times at the fire to fuel the fire.
The two clothes didn't burn for long, and the two-horned beast demon turned its stubby neck and stared at the cicada-winged demon with slightly protruding goldfish eyes, and after a while, the three-eyed demon's gaze also turned away.
The cicada-winged demon was so nervous that his wings trembled slightly, and he opened his two small hands, and his chubby fingers were like bee needles, faintly flashing with a layer of green light, and he was reminding the two companions that his fingertips were poisonous.
The three-eyed demon withdrew his gaze, folded his arms, and shivered again, but the two-horned beast demon did not flinch, his eyes blinked, and he continued to stare at the cicada-winged demon.
The demon clan doesn't need much reason to fight and kill each other, so naturally there is no verbal confrontation.
The two-horned beast demon and the cicada-winged demon made simultaneous moves, but they both pounced on the three-eyed demon, and one pressed his shoulder. One stabbed the venomous fingertip into the emaciated chest.
The Three-Eyed Demon's eyes widened at the same time, and there was a ho-ho sound in his throat, and his feet kicked the ground a few times, never moving again, and the body was then thrown into the fire.
The flames were suppressed, and the two demons turned the three-eyed demon's corpse over, and when the fire was up, they put it down.
The smell of the barbecue became stronger, and the two-horned beast demon licked his lips.
It was at this time that the uninvited guests entered the cave, and as soon as they entered, they opened their mouths to speak, adding a bit of vitality to the dead and silent cave.
"Ahh It was really snowing, and it had been raining for almost three days, wasn't it? It was so cold that my butt was about to fall off, and I saw a fire here from afar, and my heart warmed up a little before I even came over. You don't mind if I sit down for a while, do you?"
The person who came was not tall, wrapped in several layers of clothes, except for two wet eyes that were a little weird, and there were no demon characteristics on his body.
The two-horned beast demon didn't move, and the cicada-winged demon nodded.
The half-demon rubbed his hands together. Bypassing the two-horned beast demon, he sat on the stone where the three-eyed demon once sit, stretched out his arms and roasted the fire for a while, feeling a lot more comfortable all over his body. "Are you guys barbecuing? It's almost mushy. What is this? Is it a three-eyed half-demon? Hehe, the taste of the two of them is really unique, look at his skinny, and the flesh of his whole body is not a few taels. ā
"Your clothes are good. There's a little more meat on your body, right?" the cicada-winged demon spoke, with a child-like body and appearance, but his voice was like that of an old man who was dozens of years old.
"Are the clothes good? I don't know. It's not my own. Yin Bushen pinched his belly, "I don't have a few taels of meat, a little more than this guy in the fire, and far worse than you." The fire is too small, I'm going to make it bigger. ā
Yin Bushen's right hand reached into his left sleeve and groped for a while, took out a handful of powder, and sprinkled it in the fire, and the flames rose a large section, reaching the top of the cave, illuminating the whole cave as bright as day.
The two demons were taken aback, the cicada-winged demon had already shown its green fingertips, and then it was put away again, and the two-horned beast demon turned its head to look at the newcomer, and spoke for the first time, "You are a sorcerer?"
"I'm not a trickster anyway. Yin Bushen laughed twice.
The abilities of ordinary demons are innate, and they can get stronger and stronger, but they will not change much, but the skills of demon magicians are learned, and they may not be very strong, but they are all highly respected among the demon clan.
The cicada-winged demon spread its wings and flapped twice, expressing welcome and peace, "I didn't expect to meet a sorcerer here." My name is Cicada Guang and I'm from Ice City. ā
The two-horned beast demon also gave up the idea of killing the sorcerer, and shook the two big horns on his head, "My name is Paint Whirlwind, and I am from the Wolf Plain. ā
"What about this one?" Yin Bushen pointed to the charred corpse in the fire.
The two demons shook their heads at the same time, and the cicada winged demon said politely: "We don't know each other, we happened to meet together tonight, dare to ask Your Excellency's name?"
"My name is Yin Bushen, and I'm from the South China Sea. ā
The two demons had obviously never heard of this name, and Qi Whirlwind pondered for a while, "Are you from the Iron Spine Jiaolong clan?"
"Hmm. ā
"I heard that the entire Iron-Ridged Jiaolong clan has died in the demon capital. ā
"Rumors, don't I live a good life?"
The two demons didn't ask any more questions, the heat generated by the exuberant flames satisfied them, and they could say whatever they wanted.
"One is from Wolf Plains, and the other is from Ice City, where are you going?" Yin Bushen asked.
Qi Whirlwind lowered his head and was silent, and Cicada Guang sighed, "It's better to go wherever you can than to stay in Ice City and wait for death." Alas, the demon clan really has no way to live, there are Taoist priests in the south, and there are monsters in the north, and they have to kill each other. ā
"Ice City is the safest place in the land of demons, Taoist priests don't dare to go in, how can staying there be 'waiting for death'?"
Cicada Guang looked at Yin Bushen, "You haven't been to the north for a long time, have you?"
"Hehe, you said yes, I have always lived in the South China Sea, and then wandered in the south of the land of demons, this is the first time I came to the north. ā
"Turn back, I advise you not to go further north. ā
"Why? I was about to visit Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons, and I heard that after the death of the Demon King, the Banshee King of Ice City recruited Magi, and I still want to make a career under her. ā
Hearing that Yin Bushen was going to visit the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons, Cicada Guang shrank up and stopped squeaking, he was from Ice City, and he was quite jealous of the Banshee King.
Wolf Yuan's lacquer whirlwind took over from Cicada Guang and said, "Don't go to Ice City, Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons doesn't need so many 'Magi', it's enough to have a different history monarch and a faceless Taoist priest." If you go, you'll probably be killed. ā
"Faceless Daoist means the woman named Lan Curling, right?"
Lacquer Whirlwind nodded.
"Who is the Strange Historian?"
"It's that Strange History, you won't have heard of it, have you?"
"Of course I've heard of it, but now there are too many counterfeits, so I have to be careful. As far as I know, the Strange History Monarch has disappeared for many years, and I'm afraid this one in Ice City is also fake, right?"
Qi Whirlwind shrugged his shoulders, he was a wolf original demon, and he had only heard about the matter of Ice City, but he didn't know the details.
Cicada Guang raised his head, and it was getting warmer and warmer in the cave. This is all thanks to this demon magician, Cicada Guang felt that he should no longer have anything to hide, "The strange history of the Ice City is absolutely true, his spells are powerful, and he more than doubled the height of the ice city's walls overnight, there was once a group of demons who doubted his identity, and he burned them all to ashes with a single spell, and his ability is stronger than the giant demon king, and even greater than the Taoist priest." ā
"You've seen it with your own eyes?"
"I've seen the heightened city walls with my own eyes, but I've never seen the Alien Monarch himself. ā
"Since this Alien Historian is so powerful. Why did you have to escape from the Ice City?"
Cicada Guang clasped his hands on his shoulders, and the wings behind his back shook several times, "Bingcheng is going to fight against the monsters in the north, IāI don't want to participate." ā
"Monsters of the North?" you've said several times. What the hell is that?"
"Bingkui. The answerer was Lacquer Whirlwind, the wolf was in the north of the ice city, and he knew more about "monsters", "Those are a group of things that are even more terrible and cruel than Taoist priests." Like the demon clan, they can live in an unclean atmosphere and kill the demon when they see it. Never leave a mouth alive. ā
"Ha, the Northern Demon is too bold, isn't it? The whole world treats beasts and demons as monsters, and it's ridiculous that you are afraid of another group of monsters. Resisting, fighting, isn't that what the beast demon likes to do?"
Lacquer Whirlwind and Cicada Guang buried their heads between their legs at the same time, and did not open their mouths for a long time.
"What's wrong?Did I say something wrong?" Yin Bushen was inexplicable, vaguely remembering that he had heard of Bingkui in the demon clan barracks before, but he didn't care at the time.
In the end, it was Qi Whirlwind who raised his head, "Bing Kui is not a demon, nor is it a human, they ...... You can't fight them at all, and before you even see them, you're so scared that your hands and feet will go limp, and when you see them, you will involuntarily kneel down and let them cut off your head. ā
"Sounds like some kind of hex, or a curse. Yin Bushen paused for a moment, "Isn't the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons afraid of Bingkui?"
"I'm afraid, the Holy Mother was originally going to lead the entire Ice City Demon Clan to the Demon Mountain Pass to join the Giant Demon King. Cicada Guang also raised his head and sighed again, "But the Giant Demon King was killed by the Daoists, and at this time, the Strange History Jun and the Faceless Daoist came, and they persuaded the Holy Mother to stay in the Ice City, and said that they could defeat the Ice Kui." Our Lady was convinced, but I was still afraid, and I thought it was a sign that the Ice Kui was about to attack......"
"How long have you been away from Ice City?" Yin Bushen asked.
"Two or three days. Just mentioning Bing Kui a few times made Cicada Guang's whole body tremble, and the same was true of the Qi Whirlwind sitting across from him, and the courage and courage that had just teamed up to kill the Three-Eyed Demon was not left at this time.
"Were Yi Shijun and Faceless Daoist still in Ice City three days ago?"
"In. Well, I haven't seen Yi Shijun, but I've seen the Faceless Taoist priest flying in the sky. ā
Yin Bushen stood up, "Alas, the people who are in a hurry are really miserable, and no matter how warm the cave is, it can't stay for long." Farewell, both. ā
The two demons also stood up to send them off, and they always respected the demon magician.
Yin Bushen walked to the entrance of the cave, glanced at the wind and snow in the dark night, turned around and asked, "There are always demons in Bingcheng who have seen that Strange History Monarch, right?
Cicada Guang thought for a while, "Yi Shijun seems to be missing a leg, there is such a statement, I don't know if it's true or not." ā
Yin Bushen sprinkled a handful of powder into the fire again, turned and walked into the night, turned a corner, flew against the wind, and the storm hit his face, and he began to miss the fire in the cave.
Flying over the ridge, he saw the unicorn and the Taoist priest.
Mu Xingqiu stood on the back of a flea, looking north, where there was a large cloud that the sky could not penetrate.
"I really got some news, and although it's a little weird, it's very useful. Yin Bushen flew to Mu Xingqiu's side, the wind was too strong, and he swayed left and right, "Let's talk about the most important thing first, that Yishi Jun in Bingcheng, I guess it's Feibai, this kid doesn't know how to escape from Ashan, and he joined forces with the old woman of Lan Binglu." ā
