For this romantic feeling, Deng An and Ah Yun are reluctant to break it. They walked aimlessly and silently along a path, however, in their hearts, there were a thousand words, because they carried so many emotions that no one knew how to speak.

Gradually, the slanting sunset shone in along the gaps in the trees.

The scorching pain of the yang qi made them all smile bitterly reluctantly.

At this time, they faintly heard the sound of talking not far away.

"Brother, we're going back late, and we'll be scolded by our father. The voice of a crisp little girl broke the silence of the woods and added a lot of life to it.

"Don't worry, I'll find it soon, I heard from my grandfather, he found the Hexia Fairy Grass here last time. It took a moment for a boy to reply. Judging from his voice, it seemed that he was a little absent-minded, and he probably didn't take the girl's words to heart.

"Well, I'll listen to my brother. The girl replied softly, with a little helplessness in her voice, but she still seemed to be worried, and after only a moment, she said again: "Brother, it's getting dark, why don't we come again tomorrow, anyway, this place is very remote, and few people usually come, even if there is really a Hexia Fairy Grass, I don't care about the time of this night." ”

"No!" After hearing this, the boy decisively vetoed: "Tomorrow is grandpa's ninetieth birthday, in case we can't find Hexia Fairy Grass, what will we give him a birthday celebration......"

Judging from the direction of the voice, they were walking towards the location of Deng An and Ah Yun.

Soon, from a few trees, two children appeared. They were not very old, the boy was about eleven or twelve years old, and he looked a little thin, but between his eyebrows, there was a look of fortitude, and the girl was only eight or nine years old, and she was very delicate, judging from their clothes, she did not look like a nearby mountain person, but came from a martial arts family, and was very agile when she moved.

Deng An and Ah Yun hid in the first time.

As the distance gradually approached, they were surprised to find that both boys and girls had a faint aura of dust, as if they were about to embark on the path of cultivation, thinking of the conversation just now, they were almost certain that these two children were from a certain family of cultivators.

"Brother, I'm a little cold. Suddenly, the girl seemed to notice something, and she couldn't help but shudder. Then, with a hint of fear, she looked deep into the woods.

"Ziling, you hold on for a while, and when we find the Hexia Immortal Grass, we will go home immediately. The boy hurriedly comforted him, and then glanced around vigilantly, and as the sun gradually sank in the west, the depths of the woods became darker and darker, like the chirping of a night owl, and rang out from time to time.

"Brother, will there be ghosts in the forest?" the girl was still a little scared.

"Ziling, don't be afraid, with my brother here, even if there are ghosts, don't you dare to approach us, have you forgotten that grandpa once said that the ancestor of our Deng family is a real meditation cultivator. When the boy heard this, he looked at Lin Zhong's eyes, and gradually showed a hint of timidity, but he quickly realized that he was walking with his sister, and hurriedly patted his chest and promised.

"Oh, I listen to my brother. The girl nodded, reassuring.

The boy and girl soon walked through the woods to a weedy cliff, and by this time the corner of the setting sun had sunk under the ground, and the top of the whole forest was covered with a layer of red color, and the breeze blew slowly, like the sea in the evening.

Suddenly, in the crack on the side of the cliff, a burst of light flashed.

This change did not escape the boy's eyes, and he was overjoyed, and immediately rushed over, and the girl also noticed the glow, and her pink cheeks were immediately full of smiles.

"Hexia Immortal Grass!"

When he saw a plant shaped like a crane in the crack, the boy couldn't help but let out a cheer, and without a pause, he dodged to the cliff to take the plant.

Suddenly, from the depths of the rift, a fishy smell wafted out.

Immediately afterwards, a black demon snake with a thick wrist and mouth, like an arrow off the string, bit the boy. When the boy found out, he subconsciously dodged to the side. However, the black demon snake did not change the direction of its attack because of the missed blow, but accelerated again and rushed towards the little girl.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the little girl was stunned by the scene in front of her.

"Ziling, get out of the way!" When the boy found out, he couldn't help but be shocked, and when he reminded him, he pulled out a dagger with cold light from his waist and stabbed it at the head of the snake. It's just that compared to the black demon snake, his speed is much slower. Because of her panic, the little girl failed to get out of the black demon snake's attack in time, and watched it bite her calf.

At this moment, a cold wind blew in the silent forest.

Although the boy and girl have practiced martial arts since childhood, and have practiced the art of tuna, their physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people, they still can't help but shiver a few times. As for the black demon snake, it also failed to get rid of the invasion of the cold air, and inexplicably flipped several times in the air. And, in the next moment, it seemed to be frozen, and its speed slowed down slowly.

During this time, the boy, who reacted, stabbed the dagger into the head of the snake.

The body of the black demon snake, with a violent twist, gradually stopped moving.

The boy and the girl were shocked by what had just happened.

However, seeing that it was too late at night, they didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly went to the crack to pick the Hexia Immortal Grass, and then returned to the black demon snake to peel the skin and take out the snake gall bladder and other things.

Judging by their movements, they look like veterans in the woods.

After that, the siblings turned north and quickly disappeared into the twilight.

"Deng An, they seem to have the surname Deng, and there is also a contemplative cultivation ancestor, could it be your descendant?" Ah Yun, who seemed to be infected, looked at the north and said half-jokingly.

"Ah Yun, what nonsense are you talking about?" Hearing this, Deng An's face was hot for a while, and he hurriedly defended: "I have no heirs in the mortal world, and the reason why their surname is Deng is just a coincidence. ”

"Hehe, Ghost King Deng also has times when he is not calm. However, Ah Yun, who had already dug the pit, waited for Deng An to explain, and couldn't help laughing when she saw his embarrassed appearance.

Seeing this, Deng An immediately understood that the other party was deliberately making fun of him. He knew that he was not Ah Yun's opponent at all in terms of bickering, so he had to suffer a dumb loss by default. However, he was very curious about the origin of the boy and the girl, hesitated for a moment, and motioned for Ah Yun to follow along.

Of course, Deng An's main purpose was to find out Qin Hongling's whereabouts.

Since the two of them may be from the Xiuxian family and live near Wangxian City, it is impossible not to know the existence of Qin Hongling, and they can get more accurate information from them.

To the north of Wangxian City, about a hundred miles away, there is a steep valley.

Due to the large number of beasts in the mountains, and many psychic demon beasts, ordinary hunters did not dare to set foot at all, so for ordinary people in Wangxian City, they did not know about its existence.

At this time, at the exit of the valley, a young woman who looked to be in her twenties was standing on a high rock, anxiously looking at the woods in the distance, and soon after, a man of the same age walked out of the valley, his expression was also full of melancholy.

"Xiaoqing, Ji Feng and Ziling haven't come back yet?" Although he had already seen the results, when the man jumped on the rock, he couldn't help but ask.

"If it was usual, I would have returned to the valley a long time ago. The woman nodded.

"Don't worry, Ji Feng and Zi Ling have always been very sensible, and the nearby demon beasts are not much of a threat to them, most of them have encountered other accidents. The man comforted softly.

"Brother Rujian, they all say that they are strict and loving to their mothers, but you are too doting on them, and you forgot the last time, the two of them were just playful, so that grandpa also came out to look for them. When the woman heard this, she echoed with a little teasing. It's just that in her expression, there is still a melancholy.

"They are different from us, they have lived in the mountains since they were children, and they have never been to Wangxian City, so they can't be too strict. When the man heard this, his face suddenly showed embarrassment.

After hearing this, the woman couldn't help but smile and was about to continue making fun of her.

Suddenly, they seemed to have discovered something, and their expressions relaxed.

Soon, two figures appeared in front of Taniguchi, who were the boy and girl who were looking for the Hexia Fairy Grass not long ago. Seeing the men and women who had been waiting for a long time, their expressions became a little uneasy.

"Ji Feng, Zi Ling, you still know how to come back!How did you promise before you left the valley?!" In order to show his father's authority, the man's face sank and he scolded in a low voice.

"Father, it's just getting dark, so it's not a breach of contract. The boy whispered.

"Hmph, are you still not convinced?" Seeing that his authority was being challenged, the man snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "So, it is me and your mother who should not wait here?"

"Father, Brother Ji Feng didn't say you can't wait. The girl complained.

"Ziling, you haven't returned for a long time, and your mother is naturally very worried. This time, even if you are punctual, remember to come back early next time you go out. The man, who was obviously more doting on his daughter, immediately changed his tone, as if he was worried about scaring her.

"Let's talk about these things when we return to the valley, Ji Feng and Ziling haven't eaten for a day, so they must have been hungry for a long time. Seeing this, the woman suddenly cried and laughed, and shook her head helplessly.

When the boy heard this, he was relieved, and his bitter melon-like face immediately radiated the liveliness that a boy should have, and he immediately jumped on the rocks and hugged his mother's legs. When the girl saw this, she pursed her lips disdainfully like a big child, and walked to the valley alone.

The woman patted the boy on the head, whispered a few words, and led him down the rock.

The man took a look around before following the woman and her two children. In his heart, there was always a kind of uneasiness, as if someone was peeping in the dark. It's just that, after confirming just now, there is indeed nothing abnormal around, and his feeling seems to be just an illusion.

Even though it was night, there was still a sense of unreality in the valley.

When the family of four came to an ancient tree, the man took out something in the shape of a token, and as a flash of light flashed on its surface, their figures gradually disappeared.
