Chapter 5 Stop on the road to kill, watch the light and extinction of the flowers
Let's say that the old demon of the wood spirit withered cold, and cast a poisonous thorn phantom array to make the bones of the young man who was chasing after him flesh, but who knew that in the end, he ended up in a different place. This thousand-year-old dryad didn't understand until he died, why he saw that the young man was obviously in his array, and why he finally appeared from somewhere else.
The old dryad withered Han didn't know that the young man who was the enemy of him had roughly paid attention to the principles of the ghost king's illusion since he had the ghost king with him, and he had made a lot of preparations in order to enter the dangerous place of the demon continent last time, and had already studied the psychedelic illusion with Xiao Yu in detail. Therefore, although I have not studied for a long time, my intentions, coupled with the fact that the ghost master who came down halfway is not trivial, and I am already extraordinary in the art of ghosts. How could this old dryad's hastily arranged poisonous thorn phantom array hide from his eyes?
Just now, it was just a little trick on Xingyan, but he let Wei Han have illusions himself, thinking that Xingyan had easily stepped into the trap of the phantom array he had arranged. In fact, Xingyan has just been watching him perform from the sidelines. When Qiong Wei arrived, these two brothers and sisters with a very tacit understanding only splashed water and escaped, just like the weird content of the usual daily play, they instantly approached the dryad, and cut him into the dust in a blink of an eye!
Besides, the dog-faced old demon withered and was slashed by Xingyan's sword, and when the head was separated, a green light more than three feet high immediately erupted from the cavity, and then the entire slender body seemed to be evacuated, and the green robe snorted to the ground. A moment later, under the green robe that covered the ground, many thick roots and tendons quickly spread out in all directions, pushing away the gravel on the beach of the river valley, and creeping out about half a foot long. After that, all the tendons invariably stopped meandering and stood still on the surface.
At this time, the green smoke that erupted from the neck cavity of the old dryad was also still, neither condensed nor dispersed, like a glowing jasper pillar, and the glowing pestle was beside the river valley at his feet - in such a gloomy cloud world now, it was difficult for others to see clearly, and in this fluorescent flickering pillar of light, there was also a pair of poisonous eyes, like beast eyes, fluttering in the turquoise light filled with smoke inside, almost invisible.
"It's pretty!
Seeing this pillar of turquoise light, Qiong Wei didn't care about anything else, he just felt that it was very clean and cute, and immediately wanted to run up and touch it to see if it was as smooth as it looked.
"Wait!"
The little sister was so reckless, so she was naturally pulled by her cousin brother.
Pushing the reluctant little girl behind him, the editor of Xingyan stared quietly at the emerald pillar of light with a blurred shadow for a long time, the divine light in his eyes flashed, thoughtful.
After thinking for a while, Xue Yi Qiongwei saw her hall master, so she suddenly stepped forward, quickly stretched out her hand, and stroked this brilliant emerald smoke with both palms-
In an instant, just like ice and snow encountering boiling soup, this strange green light, in the young man's palms with Qinghua, shrunk and shortened, and became fainter and fainter, until the last bit of phosgene was dimmed, and it was all collected in the young man's palm.
At this point, under the awakening words of "refining gods and turning into voids", this three-thousand-year-old tree demon who is more than Nanshan is the evil side, there are only these veins and wooden tendons that wind and soul on the surface of the earth. Originally, Qiong Wei, after seeing Xingyan's actions, also had an understanding, so he was angry and wanted to burn the remaining foundation of the old tree demon, but as soon as he raised the red shining fire blade, he was pulled by Xingyan, turned around and left together. After all, in Xingyan's mind, at this time, the evil has been eliminated, and it is necessary to leave a glimmer of life for the creatures in this heaven and earth.
Later, when passing through the phantom array laid by the old dryad just now, Xingyan saw that there was another flower scattered among the poisonous thorn bushes. Unlike those thorns that withered in color, after the death of the old dryad, this three-budding flower with faint light and shadow was still bright and bright. Seeing the strangeness of this flower, Xingyan's heart moved, and the sleeves of his robe were rolled up, and the flowers and plants were wrapped in his sleeves.
Coming out of this river valley, not long after Edgeworth stepped on the clouds, Xingyan and Qiong Wei saw a cloud in the distance, and one of them was floating towards this side. After a while, Xingyan saw Kou Xueyi, who was wearing an ice plum battle armor, flying towards this side in the mountain breeze and smoke, and next to her, there was another person supporting, and Xingyan could see that it was Su Shuiruo, the water spirit who had only fought against Xueyi not long ago. Now Su Shuiruo's face was even paler, his expression was sluggish, his feet were floating, and he leaned weakly on Xue Yi's shoulder, as if he had been drained of his whole body.
At this time, the fields converged, and there was no time to say much, only to roughly talk about their respective battle situations. From Xue Yi's soft words, Xing Yan learned that not long ago, Su Shuiruo was forced to retreat by Xue Yi's all-pervasive and hidden killing spirit wand flying flowers, but even if it was full of dangers, he still struggled to support it. It's just that, about half a moment ago, the water * Ruo, which was trying to urge the wind sword and frost sword to resist, suddenly froze like a wood and stone, and then the whole person fell into a piece of ice and snow, unconscious.
Listening to Xue Yi's words, he calculated a little, and when the water spirit hit the ground, it was probably the moment when the old tree demon was killed by himself. Obviously, when the dryad fell, the evil method of manipulating the water spirit also came to an abrupt end.
Gossip aside, the three of these Sihaitang cut off the demons and returned victoriously, all the way half cloudy and half foggy, swept over the towering mountains, and came towards Huoli Village. Because the water spirit was pregnant, they didn't dare to fly fast, and only slowly flew towards Huoli Village.
When he was flying over the mountains, Xiao Qiongwei, who was flying in front, suddenly shouted: "There are monsters!"
Then the firebird under her feet deflected its wings and fell downward. Seeing this, Xingyan hurriedly ordered Xue Yi to protect the water spirit, and then the two also followed Qiong Wei and fell to the ground together.
After a while, Xingyan saw a middle-aged man kneeling in the grass beside the mountain road in front of him, dressed in short clothes, dressed in kudzu belt, wearing an octagonal tiger skin hat on his head, a pointed mouth, and a round face. Now the man was anxious to pale his face, trying to explain something to the little girl in front of him. At this time, Xiao Qiongwei pinned her two little hands behind her, her body swayed left and right, her dark eyes widened, and she stared at the uncle in front of her with a serious face, as if she didn't believe his words.
When Xingyan and Xue Yi got closer, they heard the vigilant little sister interrogating with concern: "You, you're really not a monster who wants to harm my brother?ββ don't think I'm stupid, just come and lie to me!"
The little girl's words have her own reasons. Although Qiong Wei has always thought that she is only a cute little monster, after more than a year of careful thinking, she has come to a simple and correct conclusion: in this world, there are actually only two kinds of monsters. One is a youkai who wants to harm her cousin's brother, and the other is a monster like her who likes her cousin's brother.
Now, she is carefully screening according to this simple standard, to see if the uncle Ge Yi in front of her who is in a hurry is the first bad monster. If so, she would have to follow her brother's example and slay demons again.
Xu felt that the seemingly naΓ―ve little girl in front of him was ready to go, and the Geyi Mountain Demon, who had come specifically for something, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, shouting and explaining carefully: "Daxian is wronged! Even if Daxian you lend me a thousand guts, I don't dare to harm your immortal brother in the slightest!"
Thinking that this little fairy had killed an entire mountain field like purgatory not long ago, the beads of sweat that had come out of the forehead and sideburns of this Geyi demon god became bigger and bigger.
"Oh......!
Hearing this reason, she seemed to be a little moved, Qiong Wei bit her lip and thought for a while, then pouted and asked another question: "Then uncle, why are you blocking the mountain road and shouting for us not to go?"
It turned out that Qiong Wei had already heard that in the middle of the road where the clouds were descending the mountain, someone shouted for them to "stay".
"It's because of ......"
Ge Yi Demon, who originally gave his tongue, faced this little girl, but his tongue was knotted for a while, and it was difficult to speak. The bad thing is that seeing his words, the suspicious look on Xiao Qiongwei's face gradually became more suspicious, and he stared at him more and more;
Just when the face of this Geyi demon was like ashes, fortunately, the two gods also came. Before getting closer, the young and radiant immortal at the head pulled the terrible little killing god aside, and then asked himself with a kind face: "May I ask this big brother, I don't know why you are looking for us?ββ you get up first, you don't have to kneel to talk to us." β
Hearing this kind and kind question, Ge Yidemon, who had just been frightened, was suddenly relieved, and felt that he was about to cry just now. Hearing the immortal order him to stand up and speak, the man in Ge Yi didn't dare to disobey, and hurriedly stood up cautiously, standing aside respectfully with his hands down, and didn't dare to make a sound in the air - Xu was only thinking about how to keep his salutes in front of these gods, but this man in Ge Yi forgot to wake up to the question just now. Seeing this, Xingyan had no choice but to repeat what he had just said again, and the man in Ge Yi opened the conversation again: "Immortal, villain Mrs. She, practicing in this Huolian Mountain, has never done anything harmful. β
In front of these gods who have just sent down the curse of heaven in the mountains, they must naturally put their good experiences on the table first, and then they can continue to explain their intentions with peace of mind: "The villain's true appearance is a python by the stream in this mountain - even if the villain doesn't say it, several immortals can see it." Today, the villain risked his life to block the cloud path of several immortals, just to give a little gift, so as to thank the immortals for their rescue!"
"Uh, when did we save you?"
After listening to the words of the python demon She Tai, Xingyan looked inexplicable, and I don't know where he started. Seeing that he kept saying "immortals" one by one, Xingyan hurriedly humbled himself: "Brother She, don't be too famous, we are all cultivators, you just ask me to say Zhang Xingyan." β
Hearing this, how can this python demon She Tai believe it. Seeing the methods of these people in front of him, and then looking at the auspicious clouds and thousands of mist around the calm fairy in front of him, how could he be an ordinary cultivator in the mortal world? Although he is not blind, as long as he is not blind, he can see that these men and women with beautiful looks are all gods and men descending from the sky!
It turned out that at this time, Xue Yi was thin because of the thin armor on her body, and her delicate figure was unobstructed, and now when she saw an outsider, she made the snow light around her thicker, and the fine silver snow like a cloud of smoke covered her body, and then she was illuminated by the glowing ice armor.
Therefore, following She Tai's gaze, he glanced at Xue Yi, and sighed Xingyan, and no longer insisted that the snake demon change his name.
Besides, Mrs. She, seeing that Xingyan had some doubts on her face, she hurriedly said respectfully: "Zhang Daxian is above, and the villain blocked the immortal drive today, which is indeed to repay the grace of saving his life." Shangxian, you don't know, that withered old demon did a lot of evil, and formed a private party in this Huolian group of peaks, and teamed up with his team of Sun Xiaowei to plague living beings in the mountains, cutting off the life path of other spiritual cultivators, and causing complaints from all directions. It's just that they have a lot of power, and the Dryad clan is intertwined, and even if we and other alien beings have grievances, they dare not speak out. β
"As for the villain, I'm not afraid of the jokes of a few immortals, I'm timid by nature, and I don't dare to compete with them. Seeing that they were in trouble, he had already avoided them, found a pure place, and prepared to practice diligently. β
"Who knows, in response to the sentence 'sit at home behind closed doors, disaster will come from the sky', I didn't expect that in this remote valley I found, there was a strange grass, one stem and three flowers, called 'Seven Leaves and Three Flowers Sword Grass'. The petals look like a small crystal sword, and it is said that this grass grows because of the spirit seed in the mountains, and it grows after listening to the roar of the dragon passing by, so it is called 'θ©' (zhΓ©). β
Xu is heart was indignant, and the python demon She Tai said this in one breath before he paused, and continued: "I only found out about the name of this grass later. Originally, when I first moved here, I just saw that it had beautiful leaves and a good smell of flowers, but I didn't expect it to be a spirit flower fairy grass. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have dared to move my home there even if I had been interrupted by seven inches!"
"Oh, why is that?"
Hearing this, Xingyan was a little puzzled: "Isn't it nice to have fairy flowers and spiritual plants to accompany you? It is said that being accompanied day and night can enhance your cultivation." β
After saying this, he heard She Tai say stupidly: "What the immortal said is extremely true! It's just that the immortal doesn't know it, a little monster with low mana like me will be a disaster when he encounters the fairy grass!"
Speaking of this, She Tai sighed heavily, and said with a bitter face: "Alas! The bad thing is that it is a fairy grass! It is also my old She who is unlucky, how can I not carefully inspect it before moving there." As a result, I moved on my front feet, and the little demon under the old puppet of the dryad followed, and in a few days this sword grass was detected by them, and I will never be at peace from then on!"
"Huh, why is that?"
Hearing this, Xingyan still doesn't know why it caused trouble. Because although Huaibi is guilty, since Mrs. She has no intention of occupying the immortal treasure, she might as well hand it over, and it should be fine.
"Alas!"
Hearing Xingyan say what he thought in his heart, this python demon She Tai sighed again, and said with a gloomy face: "What the immortal said is not bad! Originally, I also thought so, let go of the fairy grass valley and move by myself." β
"Oh, isn't that two, are they going to embarrass you?"
Looking at the desolate appearance of Mrs. She's insulting face, she knew that something was wrong in the future. Sure enough, I only heard She Tai hate and say, "Yes! It stands to reason that this should be fine." Who knows, the withered old horseman, just insisted, saying that the strange flower fairy grass is a treasure of heaven and earth, and there must be a divine beast next to it, and he must get rid of the guardian divine beast in order to get the sword fairy grass with peace of mind!"
"Huh?!"
Hearing Mrs. She's words, she almost choked on her words.
"yes!"
Rao is not to be rude in front of the immortals, but there is still a bit of anger on the face that She Tai tried to maintain: "It would be good if that withered old demon was reasonable! I chose the valley in the first place, but I just felt that it was sunny and sunny, and I was afraid of cold by nature and wanted to bask in the sun more!"
In the past fifty or sixty years, I have been chased by the old demon henchmen all the way, and I have moved countless houses, and I can't remember how many times I have trekked through mountains and rivers, and I have not even bothered to find a cultivation partner to this day. Occasionally, there is also a suitable female snake spirit, and they are talking about each other, but as soon as they heard that my real name is the famous 'guardian beast' pursued by the old dryad, they immediately fled from the wind, for fear of being caught in my bad luck!"
Speaking of this, Mrs. She thought of his loneliness and displacement for more than half a hundred years, and couldn't help but be excited and very sad.
Seeing this, the little girl who had been vigilantly observing him was also a little embarrassed, regretting that she shouldn't have interrogated him so hard just now. I only heard Mrs. She say again: "And that dead ghost old dryad, recently got another water spirit;
It seems that in these days when the snake demon fled, he should have studied some human classics, otherwise he would not have spoken so literately. Speaking of this, Mrs. She's tone suddenly changed, and she said happily: "Fortunately, people are watching the sky, and this God still has eyes! These days, the old tree demon is busy forcing the narcissus spiritual power, and he can't take care of it, today I will sneak over to see how the limelight is, see if I can find a gap, kill one or two of his subordinate tree spirits, even if he dies, he will have a good breath!"
It can be seen that the snake spirit in front of him who is cautious in his words and deeds has also been forced to be ruthless over the years, otherwise he would not have done such a fateful act.
"Whew~"
Hearing this, the smart little girl had already breathed a sigh of relief, blinked her eyes, and smiled sweetly: "Uncle monsters, I know! Are we fighting those monsters for you today, and you want to come and thank me Brother Xingyan?"
"Exactly!"
Hearing what the little fairy said, Mrs. She looked excited, quickly turned around and took out a vermilion lacquered wooden box from the grass next to her, knelt down on her knees, held the box above her head with both hands, and hurriedly moved a few steps forward regardless of the sand and gravel on the ground, and bowed her head under the vermilion box and said pously: "The great immortal is above, and the little demon She Tai at the end of the Huolian Mountain is specially dedicated to a Ganoderma lucidum for the longevity of the immortals!"
"This ......"
Seeing that the snake demon's tone was sincere, he couldn't excuse himself a few times, so he had to take the fragrant vermilion box and hand it over to Qiong Wei for temporary safekeeping, and then stepped forward to pick up She Tai, took a few steps back and bowed, and thanked him solemnly.
Besides, Mrs. She, when she saw several immortals accepting his gifts, she was not only happy, but also felt very dignified. It seems that this time I can answer with the immortals, and I will go to find the female snake spirit before in the future, and ask for a practice partner, and she should no longer be in a hurry to burn back the paper money.
Before saying goodbye, this She Tai asked the immortals for "instructions" - originally, She Tai only thought that these immortals should give him a few words of instruction as they said in the novels and classics he bought in disguise, warning him to abide by his duty, practice honestly, and not harm the world, and then send him back to the mountains and forests. Naturally, he She Tai will also respect the orders of the immortals and be an honest cultivation demon.
It's just that what Mrs. She didn't expect was that the immortal in front of her, known as "Zhang Xingyan," listened to his request, and actually told him the key to cultivation! At that moment, it was really a fairy wind blowing in his face, and every word was beautiful! This She Tai listened to it, and he was in a mood for a while, and he almost fainted, and he almost missed a few wordsβof course, this is impossible; if he really missed a word, he could not comprehend the magic machine in the future, then it would be really a thousand regrets!
After listening to the teachings, She Tai thought about it and felt that this immortal with great mana also saw that his roots were quite good, so he did not hesitate to leak the heavenly secrets and mention his life. It seems that in the future, I should not just think about finding a cultivation partner and finding a fixed place to live all day long, but should practice hard according to the decree of the immortals!
Speaking of caution, after talking to this good-hearted python demon about the gist of his cultivation experience, he was about to say goodbye, when he suddenly remembered something, so he took out the flowers that had been rolled up in the Wood Spirit Gong Poison Thorn Array from his sleeve, and asked Mrs. She if this was the "Seven Leaves and Three Flowers Sword Grass" he just said.
When She Tai saw the flowers that Xingyan showed, she naturally said yes. Now that he sees this strange flower and grass that has caused him to have no home, he really has mixed feelings in his heart. However, at this time, She Tai knew that the immortals expected a lot from him, so it was inconvenient to show any joy and sorrow, otherwise he would be disappointed.
Trying to calm down a little, Mrs. She took a closer look at the sword grass in Xingyan's hand, and saw that it was faint and nearly translucent, so she said with some pity: "Immortal Master, this sword grass has been maintained by the spiritual power of Mu Linggong, and the spirit is connected; β
At this time, the encouraged python demon was no longer full of "old carpenter of the tree demon", but changed his name to a generous one. When Xingyan heard this, he asked, "Then I want to inquire, if I have friends who are cultivating ghosts and immortals, is this thing suitable?"
"That's the best!"
After asking about this, he said a few more casual words, and said goodbye to Mrs. She.
After She Tai left, Xingyan looked at the unintentionally obtained immortal thing in his hand, and already had an idea in his heart. said hello, the water spirit Su Shuiruo was half-supported and half-dragged by the plum blossom fairy, and together with the bouncing little Qiongwei, followed him to a stone rock shadow. At this time, dark clouds were rolling in the cloudy sky, and it was dark all around, and although it was only noon, it was already like night after sunset.
In this night-like shadow, Xingyan summoned the Lan Cheng ghost who had been hiding in it from the Ghost King Ring, as well as the two ghosts of Ding Jia and Yi Zang. When Lan Cheng came out, Xingyan handed him the sword grass with flowers and leaves, and explained a few more words, asking him to rely on this immortal grass to see if he could cultivate into a ghost immortal.
It is strange to say, at the time of the handover, the original transparent sword fairy flower, as soon as it arrived in Lan Cheng's hand, it suddenly flashed, and there seemed to be a golden light flashing in the dark, and when I looked at it again, the color of the sword flower had become delicate, and the petal leaves were crystal bright, as if there were countless stars flashing. At this time, it seems that the sword flower has become extremely strange.
What's even more strange is that this rootless fairy grass suddenly spreads out at the bottom at this moment, and in a blink of an eye, a light blue color rattan basket is entangled!
Seeing this scene, Xing Yan couldn't help laughing and said: "Ha! It seems that this fairy grass fruit is related to Brother Lan! It seems that if you raise it for a while longer, you can fill the basket with flowers!"
Skipping the flower basket and not mentioning it, let's talk about the two evil ghosts who had bullied Lan Cheng, at this moment, Xingyan also kindly asked them whether they wanted to stay by Lan Cheng's side to protect him, a fellow Taoist, or return to the mountains and forests. At this time, when they saw the beautiful demeanor of the man and the two women in front of them, and saw that even the water spirit was recaptured by them from the hands of the powerful old tree demon, they were naturally enthusiastic, showing their loyalty, and they all said in unison that they wanted to stay. For them, if they accompany Lan Cheng in this unique ghost king ring, they can get the edification of the sword and grass immortal qi together, and if they are diligent in cultivating, the road of the ghost immortal in the future will not be unpredictable.
After this arrangement, Lan Cheng, who had a faint figure, looked at the young Taoist brother in front of him with a peaceful expression, and couldn't help but ask why he helped him so much. Listening to his question, Xingyan replied without thinking about it: "This, the world's Taoist family should save each other in danger." Not to mention ......"
Speaking of this, Xingyan looked at Lan Cheng, but he just smiled and didn't answer. Because the next words are just speculations, and they are still inconclusive, and it is not easy to say them first. In fact, in the old patriarch's room where Lan Cheng was killed, he felt a light aura unique to Shangqing, and the dust on the wall, the twisted shape of the scar on the stalk, was no different from the system in the Shangqing Palace. It seems that this Lan Cheng, even if he is not a disciple sent down the mountain by the Shangqing Palace before, should have a great relationship with Luofu Cave Heaven. When he returned to the division after this incident, he just took him to the teachers to watch.
And when Lan Cheng returned to the "Si You" ring between his fingers, Xingyan thought of something again, and said: "Brother Lan, in fact, I have also read some books of feng shui numerology, and I have also met an old Taoist who is keen on this way a few years ago, so it can be regarded as a small gain for this fate. β
Speaking of this, the master of the Sihai Hall of the Qing Palace on Luofu Mountain looked Lan Cheng up and down again, and then said with a smile: "Brother Lan Cheng, with all due respect, looking at your face and figure, you also look like a person with a great fortune, you really shouldn't die like this." After thinking about it, the little brother only felt that your name was compatible with fate. β
"Huh?"
Lan Cheng was surprised when he heard this, and asked sincerely: "Since this is the case, please ask the master for advice!"
ββA few times before, Lan Cheng has been commensurate with his master several times, and he has also performed disciple salutes in his manners, and he has not changed his words a few times. At this moment, seeing that he was also called a master, he didn't say much anymore, but continued with what he had just said: "This Lan Cheng is difficult to achieve, difficult to achieve...... How about taking the meaning of 'picking up the harmony of heaven and earth, and harvesting the spring of all things', and changing the name to 'caihe'?
"Mining, Mining and ......"
After listening to the words of the awakening words, Lan Cheng said a few times in his mouth, and then said happily with a smile on his face: "Okay! The master has the grace of reinvention in me, just like regenerating parents, today I can get the name of the master, and I am fortunate to have three lives!"
After saying that, the young ghost with a flying spirit bowed down in the shadow of the mountain cliff and took a deep look, and then held the flower basket and flew into the ghost ring between the fingers of Xingyan. And the two ghosts of Ding Jia and Yi also followed behind and danced and worshipped in front of Xingyan for a while, and then turned into two wisps of light smoke and flew away in the ghost ring.
