Chapter 23, chasing the clouds and arrows
After staying in the Childe's Mansion Library for half a day, Shangguan Yun came out happily, thinking that the Childe's Mansion Library was really worthy of its name. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This time he gained a lot, of course, he took neither those etiquette articles, nor the sobering philosophical words, but some Kyushu wild history, rare and exotic grass, demon beast atlas, etc., the most satisfying thing for him is that this time he also found a few formation books, although it is not the formation map used by the immortal family, but Qimen Dunjia, Five Elements Array, Sancai Array, Bagua Array and other earthly array books, a rough flip, also let him get a glimpse of some formation doorways.
Looking at the more than ten books that Shangguan Yun took, Gongzi Qiong was quite surprised, "I didn't expect that the virtuous nephew's hobby is so complicated, hehe, so, these books will be given to you."
"I didn't expect that Shangguan's nephew was so interested in the formation of the Fa, so let's do it, the old man also has a superficial "Array Catalogue" here, so I'll give it to you. Elder Yan immediately took out a book from his bosom and handed it to Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun was overjoyed, and hurriedly gave a salute to express his gratitude to Gongzi Qiong and Elder Yan.
"His Royal Highness Gongzi, Elder Yan, after this time, I want to go back to the mountain, this time I will go down the mountain, I promise Elder Zhao to go back as soon as possible, I am afraid that I will fly to the Liugu Medicine Garden, and I still need someone to take care of it, so I will not stay anymore, the little nephew is like an arrow, and I hope that His Royal Highness Gongzi will approve it." ”
"That's fine, then I won't keep you anymore, just remember that this is also your home, when you go down the mountain, don't forget to come back and go around. Feng'er, you can send the official nephew out on behalf of your husband. ”
"Yes!" Feng Gongzi immediately led Shangguan Yun out of Gongzi's mansion.
"Feng Gongzi, junior brother, I will say goodbye, thank you senior brother for your hospitality for many days, and ask my son to stay. ”
"My name is Cao Feng, don't call me any son or son in the future, it sounds awkward! ”
The flagpole-like Feng Gongzi, after saying such a flagpole-like sentence, turned his head and entered the Gongzi's mansion, so that Shangguan Yun didn't react for a long time.
After being under house arrest for half a month, and finally free, Shangguan Yun only felt that the sky was high and the earth was wide, and he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly, so he immediately went on the road and ran towards Changchun Gate.
It is still rushing during the day and cultivating at night, although at this time, winter goes to spring, the willows on the side of the road have slightly revealed the color of goose yellow, and the earth has begun to return to green, and the spring light is just that Shangguan Yun no longer has the mood to enjoy the scenery, and under the full rush, the way back is much faster than when he came.
Twenty days have passed in a blink of an eye, Shangguanyun is less than two hundred miles away from the lower courtyard of Changchun, and the distant skyline can faintly see the majestic shadow of Qingniu Mountain, and the nearby terrain is no longer an endless plain, and some mountains are scattered high and low, all of which are branches of the Qingniu Mountain Range.
At noon that day, Shangguan Yunxing approached a small village backed by a hill, and felt a little thirsty, so he wanted to find some water in the village to drink. As soon as I walked into the village, I suddenly saw a group of villagers surrounding a thatched hut, and a cry was coming from the crowd.
Shangguan Yun walked over and only listened to the villagers discussing.
"It's miserable! Half of my body is gone!"
"Hey, this Juan'er is also a hard life, she didn't have a mother two years ago, and now her father Dahu is dead again, only she is a little girl, what should I do. ”
"Alas, it is said that this child is hard, Ke parents, her mother since she gave birth to her fell ill, her body is not as good as a day, it has dragged on for seven or eight years, and now it is only two years, and her father went to the mountains to hunt and encountered demon beasts. ”
"Shhh
Shangguan Yun squeezed into the crowd and saw a thin little girl lying on the corpse of a strong man dressed as a hunter and crying bitterly, and several hunters covered in blood around him were persuading the little girl.
"This big brother, may I ask what is going on here?" Shangguan Yun asked towards one of the hunters.
"Hey, this little brother, our village is called Gangxia Village, half of the people in the village make a living from hunting, this little girl's father is called Zhou Dahu, this morning with us to go up the mountain to hunt, but I didn't expect to meet a demon beast in the back mountain, the big tiger brother was bitten to death by the demon beast in order to cover us, and now only Juan'er, a little girl who is just nine years old, is left. ”
"What does a monster look like?"
"It's a demon beast that looks like a leopard, but it's smaller than a leopard, it's extremely fast, and it has a pair of blood-red eyes. Hey, in the past, the demon beasts never went to the mountains and forests near the village, but for some reason they appeared in the back mountains, and it seems that this village is also in danger. ”
"What about the village chief? Isn't there anyone to take this little girl in?" Shangguan Yun was a little puzzled, why did no one in the village come out to preside over such a big incident?
As soon as something happened, the village chief rushed to Changchun Gate and said that he would invite the immortals on the mountain to destroy the demon beasts. As for Juan'er, hey, the big tiger brother is from outside, and his family has no relatives in the village, and now every family is not well-off, if it is a boy, it is fine, and there are not many girls willing to take it in. ”
"Especially the people in the village say that Juan'er, this girl is hard-headed and will be able to overcome her family, so no one is willing to take her in. The hunter muttered to Shangguan Yun again.
Hearing this, the blood in Shangguan Yun's heart suddenly surged up, and he felt sympathy for this little girl, he took a step forward, gently patted Juan'er on the shoulder, and said loudly:
"Sister Juan'er, don't cry, my brother will kill that demon beast to avenge you!"
The little girl named Juan'er immediately raised her head, stared at Shangguan Yun with her eyes wide with tears.
"Big brother, can you really help Juan'er take revenge?"
"Yes, you can wait for me here!"
The little girl knelt in front of Shangguan Yun, kowtowed to Shangguan Yun, and said: "Big brother wants to be able to help Juan'er avenge, Juan'er is willing to be a slave to the big brother and serve the big brother for a lifetime!"
Shangguan Yun panicked and hurriedly pulled Juan'er up, "Little sister, don't talk nonsense, brother doesn't need to be served, you wait here, brother will go and kill that demon beast!"
"This little brother, how can the demon beast be so easy to kill, you still have to wait for the immortals of Changchun Gate to come, don't give your life. ”
"This eldest brother, I am a disciple of Changchun Gate, I don't know which eldest brother can take me down?"
"Are you really the immortals of Changchun Gate, those immortals can fly!" the Orion looked at Shangguan Yun with some suspicion.
Shangguan Yun didn't explain, but with a wave of his right hand in front of his chest, a flame knife condensed by spiritual energy immediately burst out of the air.
"Wow, what a fairy!" exclaimed the villagers.
"Please ask the little fairy to help us get rid of the demon beast, we are grateful!"
"Hmm!" Shangguan Yun nodded vigorously, "I don't know if any big brother can take me down?"
"I'll go with you, Brother Big Tiger died to cover us, I'll show you the way!" said the Orion who had been answering Shangguan Yun's question.
"Okay, then ask this big brother to show me the way! However, please help take care of Miss Juan'er first. ”
"Don't worry, little fairy, Juan'er has left it to us. Several villagers said in unison.
Shangguan Yun immediately followed the hunter and walked towards the hill behind the village, and when he went up the hill, the hunter pointed to a mountain peak three or four miles away, "Little fairy, the demon beast is there, pass through the valley below, and then go over." ”
"Okay, then you can wait for me here, and I'll go by myself. ”
After Shangguan Yun finished speaking, he strode towards the valley, but he wondered in his heart to listen to the description of the villagers, is this demon beast a roe deer? But this kind of demon beast is said to have been extinct for nearly 10,000 years, but it is "small like a tiger and leopard, a mother eater, and its eyes are red", which is exactly the same as the deer mentioned in the book.
Shangguan Yun's current foot strength is three or four miles away in a blink of an eye, and while thinking, Shangguan Yun has stepped into that mountain. This mountain peak is not very high, about three hundred zhang, but the forest on the mountain is extraordinarily lush, walking into the forest, Shangguan Yun immediately raised his vigilance, because the roe deer is the best at hiding and ambushing.
After walking for dozens of zhang, Shangguan Yun faintly felt that something was wrong, at this moment, he was in the light, and the demon beast was in the dark, if this demon beast came out to attack him, it would be okay, and he would kill it even if he was injured, but if the demon beast wanted to hide, how could he find it.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Yun looked around, found a tall tree and climbed it, no matter what, first look at the terrain around. Climbing to the top of the tree, Shangguan Yun looked into the distance and found that the lower part of the peak was a gentle slope, and the more than 100 zhang near the top was a steep cliff, and the shrubs and trees on the slope were mixed, and only the bottom of the cliff was the best place to see. Most of the beasts would occupy a place with a good view to better monitor their territory, so Shangguan Yun guessed that the bottom of the cliff was the habitat of the demon beasts.
Carefully passing through the bushes, he could already see the messy rocks at the bottom of the cliff, and suddenly at the top of a large rock, Shangguan Yun found a demon beast the size of a leopard, and the beast was also staring at him with a pair of blood-red glasses.
At this time, the two sides were about a hundred zhang apart, Shangguan Yun continued to walk towards the demon beast quietly, and the demon beast lay motionless on the boulder, just staring at Shangguan Yun tightly.
Seventy zhang, sixty zhang, Shangguan Yun slowed down and took out the bone bow, and the demon beast gradually bowed its body at this time, and let out a low whine from its mouth.
The demon beast suddenly rose into the air and turned into a yellow afterimage, rushing towards Shangguan Yun, and at the same time, Shangguan Yun also shot three arrows in a row, in the shape of a pin, chasing clouds and lightning at the speed of chasing the clouds and going straight to the demon beast. Seeing that the three arrows were about to hit, the demon beast suddenly turned in the air, dodged two arrows, but was shot in the left shoulder blade by the third arrow, and burst out of a bloody light, the demon beast was injured and landed, the momentum was even more fierce, a wild roar, the eyes suddenly blood was sheng, shooting out a fishy blood-colored light, straight to Shangguan Yun.
