Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
For a long time in the future, Xiaoqiu will regret his hesitation, he saw the green light rising quietly, and he didn't give an early warning, he felt that if he had called out earlier, the outcome might have been very different.
Li Yuechi, a five-element mage, has experienced a hundred battles, killed more than 140 demons and captured nearly 300 in his life, ranking among the best disciples of his generation, and making a big mistake just because of a very small mistake.
The demon body is dead, the demon pill has been collected, and the demon seed has been removed, in all Li Yuechi's experience, this snake demon has been completely destroyed, turning into a pile of useless flesh and blood, and will soon be gnawed clean by the large and small animals in the forest.
The snake corpse lay straight on the ground, two long teeth sinking into the soft earth, one of which suddenly emitted a glimmer of green light, like a timid larva popping up to check the situation.
Xiao Qiu blinked, wondering if she had read it wrong.
The first to react was not Li Yuechi himself, but the magic sword on his back, which flew into the air from the sheath with a sharp chirp, which was much louder than the bell just now, and the exclamations of the teenagers were drowned out.
Li Yuechi was only a little late, he still had a smile on his face, and he was going to explain a few more words to the young people in the town, and at the same moment when the sword behind his back shook, he opened his arms and was about to turn around.
The green light in the snake's teeth suddenly grew, instantly expanding to the same thickness as the snake's body, like a rampaging mad cow, passing by Li Yuechi's side.
Almost at the same moment, the magic sword rolled over and stabbed down in the air, hitting the green light.
The thick green light swayed violently, it had no fixed form, no organs, but the teenagers seemed to hear it screaming, it was not an ordinary cry, full of dying fear and unconvinced struggle.
After a long time, the green light gradually weakened, but the magic sword couldn't hold on, and the last metallic roar shattered into hundreds of pieces, leaving a faint green light, and quickly fled into the depths of the dense forest, and disappeared after a while.
Li Yuechi sat down slowly, his expression was stern, as if he was thinking about some serious questions, he didn't chase after the green light, but beckoned to the teenagers.
Xiaoqiu took the lead, and the teenagers walked over, but their eyes were more focused on the snake corpse behind Li Yuechi, for fear that something strange would emerge from it again.
"It was my carelessness. Li Yuechi said, listening to the voice seemed to be fine, "If you become a Five Elements Mage one day, don't make our mistakes again, and you must thoroughly examine the demon corpse from beginning to end." ”
"Can we also slay demons?" Xiao Qiu asked with wide eyes, a thought and expectation that had never existed before arose in her heart, and her voice trembled a little with excitement.
The other teenagers followed him, looking at the Five Elements Mage with expectant eyes.
Li Yuechi smiled slightly, and did not answer this question directly, "I'm not responsible for recruiting disciples, so I can't say whether you are suitable or not." But I hope you do me a favor, and someone will check to see if you have a Dogen in the future. ”
"The root of the Tao is a necessary element for a cultivator, and there is no one in ten thousand. The officer said, hoping to show his erudition and make a deep impression on Li Yuechi.
Li Yuechi smiled.
Yelin Town does not have much contact with the outside world, it is almost closed, and there are only some absurd rumors about Taoist priests, and the teenagers have never heard of any "Dao Root", let alone understand the meaning, but the awe in their eyes has increased a lot.
The officer glanced at the teenagers, thinking that this group of boys is really stupid, Li Yuechi's meaning is very clear, none of them have a Dao Gen, "If you want to find someone to help, I can ......"
"You just saved us, and we should help you, right?" Xiao Qiu said hurriedly, and the partners around him immediately nodded.
The second bolt squeezed in front of Xiaoqiu, "Tell me, my father is a town guard, and he can help with anything." ”
Hearing the word "town guard", the officer showed a look of extreme disdain, and finally remembered that the fist of the second bolt was very hard, and forcibly held back the snort.
Li Yuechi nodded with satisfaction, "I want you to give one thing to Grandmaster Pang Shan." ”
"What is it?" asked Ershu.
Li Yuechi slowly took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and then opened his mouth and spit out a round ball.
The ball is like a pigeon's egg, slightly yellow, faintly light, slippery, and seems to be stained with saliva liquid, the teenagers feel a little disgusted in their eyes, and the second bolt involuntarily takes a half step back, and gives up the position to Xiaoqiu.
"Give it to Grandmaster Pang Shan. Li Yuechi said, his voice suddenly became weak, as if the energy of his whole body was spit out with this round ball, "This is my Neidan, don't give it to anyone, and don't mention it to anyone." ”
Since he can remember, Xiaoqiu has never touched something that comes out of someone else's mouth, so he hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and touched the straw hat above his head, and then bravely stretched out his hand.
Nedan fell into the palm of his hand, strangely it wasn't damp at all, almost weightless, slightly warm, and nothing else.
Li Yuechi lowered his head, as if he was about to fall asleep, and then untied the small cloth bag on his waist, "This is for you." ”
Xiaoqiu took it blankly, feeling a little strange, "You ......"
"Swallow it. Li Yuechi said that he felt that time was getting less and less.
"What?"
"Swallow the Nedan, it can't be exposed outside for too long. The officer explained for Li Yuechi, he had a slight understanding of the importance of Neidan, and because of this, he did not rush to accept it.
The second bolt was originally a little jealous of Xiaoqiu's bravery, and at this time he was very glad that he had taken half a step back.
Xiao Qiu looked at Neidan in the palm of his hand, feeling very embarrassed about what he was about to do, until Li Yuechi's face was getting darker and darker, he made up his mind, raised his head, held his breath, and swallowed Neidan in one gulp.
Fortunately, there is no special feeling, and there is no quirky taste.
Li Yuechi was a little relieved, he had done everything he could, there were always countless accidents in this world, even the powerful could not predict it, let alone control it, he could rest assured.
"Take that lamp and follow it, and it will protect you. I've been attacked by demons, and I can't stay with you. He said, hanging his head.
The teenagers waited for the Five Elements Mage to continue, but he didn't squeak, for a long time, Xiaoqiu slowly reached over, probed his nose, and withdrew his arm suddenly, "He's dead." ”
The teenagers took several steps back at the same time, all of them stunned, and then they all looked at the officer, who was the only one who could explain this strange phenomenon: the Five Elements Mage was only hit by the green light, and there were no scars on his body, how could he be dead?
The officer's pale face showed that he was as surprised as everyone else, coughed twice, and said, "I said that the demon seed is a bad thing, and he is probably poisoned, so he warned us to stay away from the demon seed." ”
The officer was not sure at all, but the young man believed it all, and only Erzhuo still had doubts: "It's a green light, why is it called 'Demon Seed'? It doesn't look like a seed at all." ”
"It's ...... This is the name of the Daomen. The officer's explanations began to become esoteric, and he said so many terms that the boys could not understand a single word.
"It's a pity that the demon seed escaped a little. Xiaoqiu said.
"What should he do?" Daliang pointed to Li Yuechi, and the Taoist priest was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, as if he was taking a nap.
"He's so powerful, it's not necessarily dead. Xiaoqiu still has a glimmer of hope.
"Huh. The officer accidentally showed a disdainful tone again, "He even handed over Nedan to you, that is, he knew that he would definitely die." ”
Xiaoqiu still walked up to test his snort again, Li Yuechi's skin was already a little cold, "Let's bury him." ”
"I think we should get out of the forest right now. The officer looked worriedly, "Maybe the demon seed will run back." ”
Xiaoqiu ignored him, and went to pick off the small oil lamp hanging on the branch first, and the strange thing was that the light that originally shone evenly in all directions suddenly changed to only one direction.
After seeing the snake demon and the demon seed, such a strange thing still made the teenagers in Yelin Town sigh and praise, and finally understood what Li Yuechi meant by "follow it".
Xiaoqiu handed the oil lamp to Fang Fang and said to everyone, "Come on, let's dig a pit." ”
The boys looked for branches to use as digging tools, and even the second bolt drew his long sword, but the officer stepped aside, carrying his hands behind his back, with no intention of helping.
"You come too. Xiaoqiu said.
The officer shook his head firmly, "No, it's not my job. ”
"You're a prisoner, you have to do anything. ”
The officer still shook his head, "I haven't learned, and I can't dig, I won't do it." ”
Xiaoqiu was about to speak, but the second bolt walked over and showed his fist, "Do you dig or not?"
The officer timidly retreated, hesitated for a moment, and finally relented, "You are the son of the town guard, you should learn more to convince people with virtue, and use less fists......" He bypassed the second bolt, found a small branch, and dug a pit with everyone.
The ground is full of rotten leaves, which is easy to excavate, but after more than a foot deep, it will not work, and it is difficult to make progress even with special tools.
Several teenagers moved their hands, lifted Li Yuechi, and carefully lowered him into the pit.
Daliang touched the corpse a few times.
"What are you doing?" asked Xiaoqiu.
"He has so many treasures, why are they gone?"
The officer didn't help much, but he was so tired and sweating profusely that he still couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Rare and strange, except for the magic sword, the treasures of the Five Elements Mage are all collected in the treasure bag, how can they be hidden on the body?"
Everyone's eyes fell on the cloth bag on Xiao Qiu's waist.
Xiaoqiu patted twice, "He said that it was given to us, and when we get out of the forest, we will divide it equally." ”
While no one was paying attention, the officer pursed his lips and decided that this group of teenagers was an uncivilized little barbarian.
When the hungry teenagers walked out of the forest, it was already dawn, and they returned to their original places, standing at the bend of the official road, and the traces of the fight between the snake demon and the Xuanfu army had disappeared without a trace.
The oil lamp in Fangfang's hand seemed to know that her task had been accomplished and went out automatically.
"What's next?" asked Daliang.
Xiao Qiu scratched his head, he had been thinking about this all the way, and said to the officer, "Do you know the way to Pang Mountain?"
The officer was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Well, of course, Pangshan is one of the Nine Great Dao Systems, and it is famous all over the world...... If you want to go to Pangshan, you have to go to Xiaoerbao first, where there is a post station, and you can go to Pangshan unimpeded. ”
"He's lying again. The second bolt pushed the officer away, "If you want me to say, let's go back to the town first, my father must know where Pang Shan is." ”
"I'm ...... Fang Fang and I"
Erzhuan waved his hand, indicating that he had thought it all about, "You and Fangfang are still hiding in the old crazy woman's house." ”
"It's Granny Wind. Fang Fang corrected in a low voice.
"Well, Granny Wind's house. Let's go back to town, and we'll go out together after we find out. ”
The other teenagers all agreed to Erzhuo's plan, in fact, their playfulness had long been exhausted, and they just wanted to go home immediately, as for whether they would go to Pangshan with Xiaoqiu, that would be considered later.
"Okay. Xiaoqiu nodded reluctantly.
The officer forced himself to smile, "I don't have to go to Wild Woods, do I?"
The second bolt pushed the officer again, "The prisoner still talks so much, you have to go with us." ”
The teenagers embarked on the road back to their hometown, and the thought of arriving home this evening lifted their spirits, and none of them could have predicted that Yelin Town was about to have a big event, and it was no longer the home they remembered.
