Chapter 7: The White Lonely Soul
The sky was clear, and the whole valley was filled with the smell of anthers. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
A big cyan python hovered on the wooden roof, lazily drying its skin, and suddenly it raised its head sharply and spat out the letter.
At the end of the road in front of the wooden house, an elderly couple walked by each other, coarse linen, gray-haired, and in shape, at least sixty years old.
The old man shook the old lady's step, the old lady kept looking at the dazzling flowers and plants in the valley, and suddenly she looked at a cluster of small white flowers next to her, her eyes burst out with a strange light, and gently pushed her wife with her elbow.
The wife also saw it, but gave her a look, and the two calmed down and continued to walk towards the wooden house step by step.
"Hey~!, this ~ bit ~ little ~ brother ......," the old man said word by word in a hoarse and deep voice. When he approached the hut, he found a middle-aged man lying on the ground tending to the flowers and plants, but the man paid no attention to them.
The old man was about to turn around, but he saw an old woman with a cane walking out of the room, it was Granny Tuva.
She glanced them up and down, and said in the same hoarse and deep voice, "Both, what's the ...... What are you doing?"
The old man glanced at his wife and stroked his goatee: "Oh! My wife was very sick, and the doctor saw it and prescribed a medicine, but he couldn't find the medicine, so he asked us to come here, and he said it's on the mountain...... to find it. ”
When Granny Tuva heard this, she smiled slightly, still in a hoarse voice: "Oh, ask for medicine." Say...... What kind of herbs do you two need?"
The old man pulled the old woman and took a step forward: "Ah~......! What do you want? ...... wife?"
The old woman hooked her back: "Oh! that medicine seems to be called ...... Well...... It's called ......'Solitary Soul Grass'. ”
When Granny Tuva heard this, she walked down the two steps of the hut without smiling, and after standing still, she learned to use the old man's voice: "Oh, Lonely Soul Grass, I have it here." It's just that this medicine is very precious, and you can't take it from me for nothing. ”
At the same time, the python seemed to have an aura, so it slipped off the roof and coiled beside Granny Tuva.
The old man saw that there was hope, and hurriedly said, "It's easy to say...... Say. As soon as the first good word came out, he felt that his voice was wrong, and hurriedly corrected it: "We'll give you money." Please sell us a little more."
Granny Tuva seemed to have a good time, laughed out loud, and no longer imitated the hoarse voice of the old man, and said directly: "My old woman lives in this valley, and it is useless to ask for money. It's just that I'm refining medicine, and it's just a shortcoming, so if it's convenient for you, find me a 'elk spirit' and a 'fox spirit' of the spirit." ”
As soon as Granny Tuva finished speaking, the old woman snorted coldly, and changed her original appearance, but it was a young woman, and there were two antlers on her head that had not completely withdrawn.
She let go of the "wife" she was holding and said, "Second brother, I'll just say that this trick doesn't work." From the beginning, I got straight to it. ”
The old man also changed his original appearance, it turned out to be a middle-aged man, no different from ordinary people, and his fair skin was a little exaggerated. He glanced at the elk spirit: "Eleventh sister, don't be rude." ”
After speaking, he clenched his fists and bowed deeply to Granny Tuva: "This shaman, we don't mean to offend, we really need these herbs to save our brother's life, and please hold your hand high."
The old woman shook her crutches: "Don't say I know what this grass is for, even if I don't know, I can't give you a single flower or tree here." ”
As he spoke, the cyan python's body also stood up, looking at the two demons.
The vixen clasped his hands together: "Then I'm sorry." ”
After speaking, he parted his hands, and a gray electric light appeared between his palms, condensing into a long stick.
And the elk spirit was even more swift, and after flashing two golden lights in his hand and transforming into a double-strand sword, he rushed towards Granny Tuva.
On Crane Mountain, the sun also came out, but the cool breeze could not blow away the arc of rainbow on the top of the mountain.
"The 'Twelve Demons of Heshan' are just ordinary mountain demons of the five clans, and they are not worthy of such a good spiritual mountain and beautiful water, but they still don't know how to settle down. The woman who spoke, dressed in black gauze and her hair tied up by three bright red feathers, was none other than the Red Feather Sparrow.
The five clans of the demon world refer to the five clans of "fish, insects, birds, beasts, and flowers". And the mountain demon is a general term for inferior monsters. Except for a few few, most of the youkai are cultivated from ordinary creatures, and these youkai are collectively called mountain demons. Some goblins who have been created by heaven and earth and are born with different are faster to cultivate, and they are called spirit demons.
The person standing in front of her seemed to be polite, with a high pure underworld crown on his head, and a black-sleeved white robe embroidered with lotus tai chi. A gust of wind passed, and the long sideburns hair and the ribbon around the waist fluttered in the wind, as if there was a bit of a fairy spirit.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at another mountain in the distance: "It doesn't matter if this mountain is a spiritual mountain or not. Get rid of them, and we'll be able to find something. ”
The Red Feather Finch nodded, as if remembering something important: "By the way, Lord." When I came, I found that the demon qi was circling in Jilu Prefecture, and when I went down, it seemed that there was an epidemic in the city, could it be that the remaining 'Heshan Four Demons' did it?"
The white-robed man shook his head slightly: "Who else can there be, probably because he was beaten away by my move, and he is unwilling, and he wants to absorb people's spirit and improve his cultivation to take revenge." When an epidemic comes out, it is not only easy to find a target, but also to hide people's eyes, and they bother. ”
Hearing this, the red feather finch was a little flustered, and hurriedly said, "Then should we ......?"
Before she could finish speaking, the white-robed man interrupted her: "It's just a matter of killing yourself." If you use people's spirit, the backlash will be so great that even I can't bear it. What's more, this time they were too anxious, and chose a place like Jilu Prefecture, thinking that no one would care if they were far away from Datang. Do you remember what is the place on the east mountain of Jilu State? They have set themselves on fire. ”
The red feather finch sighed, and then asked: "Since we don't need to pay attention to them, are we going to attack the second mountain?" It is said that the black bear spirit has already heard the rumors, relying on the fact that he once guarded the mountain in the 'Purple Bamboo Forest', and is very arrogant, threatening that if we dare to go, we will be beaten and scattered. ”
The white-robed man still looked indifferent, and said lightly: "Jumping beam clown, don't pay attention to it." But our plans need to be put to a halt. He paused and glanced at his palm: "After learning the 'Black Martial Scripture', I have indeed made great progress, but I always feel that something is wrong, I want to go to the Central Plains to verify my guess." ”
The red feather finch stepped forward, very nervous: "Then should I go with me?"
"No, I can do it myself. Hurry up these days and clean up the other caves in Heshan. Twenty more demons will be given to that man next month. I'll leave it to you. ”
After saying that, he turned around, glanced at the sun, seemed to be shaken and couldn't open his eyes, looked sideways slightly, and glanced at the rainbow again.
Only then did I see his face clearly: thin lips, a high nose bridge, and two narrow sword eyebrows on a pair of phoenix eyes. Everything is exquisite and impeccable, except for those eyes, which are indeed deep purple pupils.
He smiled slightly: "I hope, I'm suspicious." ”
In the valley, there is still the same medicinal fragrance, but there is a little more smell of blood.
Granny Tuva lay in a pool of blood, watching the two people standing in front of him become more and more blurred, she glanced at the python beside her, whose head had been torn open by a black eagle.
The black eagle suddenly took on human form, as if to say something to the elk spirit and the fox spirit, but Tuva was too weak to hear.
"After 70 years, I still can't keep it. Whew, I don't see the day when 'Rouran will return to the country'. You'll be the only one next. ”
Knowing that she was powerless to return to the sky, her last thought was to recall her life. For seventy years, there was nothing but the study of shamanic scriptures in the valley.
In the end, the goal of 70 years was not accomplished. So what is this life for? Is it faith?
Whew! Seventy years! Seventy years! This life is in vain.
She sighed, her expression was indeed relieved like never before, watching the figure in front of her become more and more blurred, and finally connected into a bright red, the bright red slowly became dim, and finally ...... It was finally pitch black.
