Chapter 267: Zhu Guo, Bailing, and the Great Snake
Today is an ordinary day.
On the yellow calendar, there is nothing that is inappropriate and nothing that is appropriate. The sun is rising, and it's business as usual.
Today is another extraordinary day. The monkey king of Huaguo Mountain married with great fanfare, which affected the nerves of the Three Realms.
Unexpectedly, and unexpectedly, with the rising sun, Huaguo Mountain seems to be coming.
No matter the big demon or the little demon, as long as they have the ability to walk into Huaguo Mountain, no matter what thoughts they have, those who come from Huaguo Mountain are not afraid.
Huaguo Mountain is crowded with people inside and out. There are countless capable people in the four continents of the world, and there are countless people who can overcome the fear of the forbidden demons, and even more who are stopped outside.
And that's not all, there are many more people on their way to Huaguo Mountain.
The big demon has the territory of the big demon, and the little demon has the territory of the little demon. There is a lone peak sixty miles away from Huaguo Mountain, and the north side of the lone peak is as if it has been split by a giant axe, steep and smooth. And in the middle of this cliff, there is a gap.
Since childhood, Ah Bai has believed that this small cave is their family's territory, even including the entire steep slope of the wall.
Of course, there is only that.
Because, no further away, he hasn't been.
Ah Bai is a lark, and like all larks, he has a good voice.
But he had forgotten how to sing.
His mother always told him: "Ah Bai, don't make a noise, there are many monsters outside, so they will be arrested if they find out." ”
At that time he always asked, "Why? All the larks sing, why can't I?"
The mother said, "So, some larks have been eaten by monsters, and some have been taken away by humans and put in cages. Only larks that don't sing are safe. ”
Then he stopped asking.
Gradually, he forgot how to sing.
At the same time, a lot of things are forgotten.
For example, when did he become a youkai? and how did he become a youkai. However, this question is not worth studying, in this world, there are many birds and beasts that become monsters every day, and the reasons for turning demons are also strange.
For example, how did his mother get sick, and whether his father, whom he had never met, was alive or dead.
At the mouth of the crack, a three-foot-tall fruit tree grows. The fruit tree has no leaves, only a layer of branches that resemble fine scales. It is called a fruit tree because there are three vermilion fruits on the top of the bald branches.
The fruit had a faint, strange smell, and Ah Bai felt sick when he smelled it. However, the smell often attracts reptiles such as centipedes and caterpillars. Because of the insects that are constantly attracted, Ah Bai and his mother can stay in the cave without leaving the house, and they don't have to worry about food.
Zhu Guo is three years long.
Gradually from red to purple.
At the same time, the smell became stronger.
Her mother told Ah Bai that when Zhu Guo turned completely purple, she would be cured of her illness by eating it.
Ah Bai endured the disgusting smell and waited for it to ripen.
On this day, Ah Bai, as usual, stayed by Zhu Guo's side.
Zhu Guo will soon ripen, and Ah Bai's heart is full of anticipation. It's just that the smell of Zhuguo is too bad, and there are more and more scale insects attracted to it, and Ah Bai is probably the first youkai to be troubled by too much food.
"Sizzle......
An uninvited guest broke into the cave.
Feeling the danger, Ah Bai immediately stood up vigilantly, and in front of him, a large snake thicker than his entire body slowly crawled forward, and the scale armor of the big snake was more colorful than the colorful feathers on Ah Bai's body.
The big snake squirmed and approached Ah Bai, to be sure, it was Zhu Guo beside Ah Bai.
"This fruit is mine!" said Abai, declaring his sovereignty.
The serpent remained unmoved and continued to approach.
The oppression given by the big snake to Ah Bai was too great, Ah Bai took a few steps back, gritted his teeth, and struggled: "There are three fruits here, when they are ripe, you come again, and I will share one with you when the time comes, what do you think?"
The serpent's eyes showed a fierce light and continued to approach Ah Bai. It's just an ordinary mountain beast, it doesn't have a spiritual intelligence, it only follows instincts. Maybe because the bird and the snake were natural enemies, or maybe he couldn't understand Ah Bai's words, in short, the negotiation failed.
"Whew!"
The big snake took an arrow step and rushed towards Ah Bai, as fast as a phantom.
"Get out of here!"
Abai poked out his paws.
A large snake and a small lark were torn apart.
Although Ah Bai has not been transformed, he has a little demonic power in his body, which is attached to his claws, which is comparable to a sharp weapon. After fighting for a long time, Ah Bai clawed out several blood grains of different shades on the big snake's body, and the flesh and blood rolled up, which was very terrifying.
It's just that the big snake has endurance and ferocity that far surpasses Ah Bai, and Ah Bai himself is not good at fighting.
In order to protect Zhu Guo, Ah Bai had to go crazy and desperate, but the big snake was even crazier than him.
"Poof—"
Ah Bai dodged the bite of the big snake and grabbed one of the eyes of the big snake, but was swept by the long body of the big snake. The sheer force hit him so much that his body almost fell apart. Before he could breathe, the serpent turned and bit one of his wings.
"Let go of Ah Bai!"
A lark with dull feathers flew out of the depths of the hole, two claws clawed at the serpent's face.
The big snake was in pain, and its body lifted and entangled her. His body tightened, and the lark's body was strangled to a "click".
"Mother!"
Ahbai's eyes were cracked.
He struggled desperately, his hard claws scratching the serpent's face to shreds. And the serpent stretched out its three-pronged tongue, hooked his wings, and squirmed his mouth, and was about to swallow him in his mouth.
"Sickness—"
Between life and death.
A clear light shot into the cavern.
It was a slender flying sword, as silver as it was, and the light flowed, coating the small cavern with a layer of hoarfrost, which was beautiful.
But that sword intent was cold to the bone.
The flying sword pierced through the seven inches of the great snake, and because of its speed, not even a drop of blood was spilled.
The serpent's body slowly softened.
Ah Bai broke free of his wings from the mouth of the big snake, and he didn't have time to rejoice that he had escaped death, and the flying sword turned around in the air, turning into a silver ray, piercing the hearts of Ah Bai and his mother.
Ah Bai squirmed his throat, but he was filled with blood.
His eyes darkened.
I just wouldn't close my eyes.
His last gaze was fixed on a woman dressed in white as snow who appeared at the entrance of the cave.
