"Give this back to you."
The demon snake that just came back from outside threw something towards Miyin. Miyin caught it with both hands and found that the thing was wrapped in layers of coarse cloth. So she unraveled it bit by bit, with a vague guess in her mind. This assumption was confirmed when the contents were finally revealed to her.
"Isn't this dagger... at Fei's place?" Miyin felt strange. "Isn't she already dead? I thought it would never be found again."
Snake crossed her hips like a child having a tantrum and yelled: "This woman is so useless. She didn't let such an important thing come in handy in the end. She still claims to understand the value of things. And she actually Just like that, it was corroded by the Red Pearl, and I lost my life before I could get it. Fortunately, I know some harpies, and thanks to their blessing, I brought this dagger back."
Miyin was somewhat surprised: "Don't they know what this is? They don't even hide it privately."
"Don't forget what we have in our hands." She must be referring to the magic pestle. "No one dares to offend this thing."
During this time, the two of them had been keeping a low profile and not causing any trouble. After the death of the evil envoy of killing, the evil envoy of greed also died in the battle involving the six paths of impermanence. Now the news of the death of the third evil angel - Ai Xie has also spread, which makes them somewhat worried. Maybe it's not just them, the rest of the people - thieves, prostitutes, lies, bad words, and wrong views should be more or less vigilant. Although their relationship with other people is not familiar, their connection is not as close as the two of them, and they are not aware of the existence of evil agents of wrong views.
"Maybe we should join forces with others..."
"Don't be too naive." Demon Snake put his hand on the table and said seriously, "Think about it, who can we get along with? Even though the thief now works for Death Shadow Pavilion, he is actually an expert in protecting his own safety. . The prostitute is now driven by lies, and she only has eyes for the dead man next to her. If it can’t bring her relevant benefits, she will never act with us. Not to mention lies, he will only bring everyone down When a tool is used to death, just look at the fate of anger. The bad words can be regarded as the origin of Shi Yingge, but he is just an uncertain child and cannot be trusted, not to mention that there is She Ji behind him who will interfere. As for evil views , no one knows who he is—whether he was born or not remains to be seen."
After such an analysis, Xue Miyin gave up the idea.
"If you want to have the right to speak, you really need to get rid of the Six Paths of Impermanence, right?" The snake seemed to be talking to itself, "Our common enemy is really suitable for killing chickens to scare monkeys. Let's take a short rest and go into the mountains to find the spiritual veins. go."
Miyin is not sure. She asked: "Will she really come?"
"She will definitely do it." The snake is sure, "I got the news. The monster she is chasing is going to visit an old fox at Silk Cloud Peak, and she will definitely chase after him. We are all familiar with that place. This times, we must..."
Perhaps compared to the past, going home this time is not a long separation. Wenying thought she would be very excited, but in the end she didn't feel very happy. Probably because Akatsuki is no longer here. But neither she nor Han Chang was ready to explain to her grandma. But their grandma is always very shrewd and can read almost everything from their expressions most of the time.
"Ask Yingying! Ask Yingying!"
Walking on the path that was covered with snow for the first time, they seemed to hear a small cry. Especially Ling Quan, he heard it very clearly. She gently pulled Wenying's hand and said:
"Did someone call you..."
"How come? Did you hear it wrong?"
"Ask Hotaru!"
Now I asked Yingying if she heard it. She was stunned, and Xie Zhe and Han Zhang also stopped. Ling Huan always felt that the sound came from the ground, so she lowered her head to look for it. Wenying seemed to have thought of something, and immediately squatted down and stretched out her hand to the ground.
A tiny chipmunk jumped into her hand and she picked it up.
"Why did you come back?" Chipmunk asked her, "You ignored me."
Ling Huan felt surprised. Needless to say, this little guy must be a monster, but she has never seen an animal speak human language. Han Chang didn't look like he knew it, and looked on with interest. Wenying said apologetically:
"I was distracted just now and didn't notice you. What's wrong? You didn't come down from the mountain to greet me, did you?"
"Grandma said you were back. I didn't believe it, but I still wanted to come down and have a look. I didn't expect it to be true." The chipmunk stood in the palm of her hand, glanced around at the people around him, and said humanely: "There are so many new faces." Yeah. This Brother Fox must be your brother, right?"
"Yes, you didn't see them when you came back last time. By the way, this is the first time for Ling Huan to come here. The one who came last time was a sister from the sea."
She held Ling Hu over with one hand, and the latter smiled awkwardly and waved to the chipmunk.
Han Chang clasped his hands and asked with a smile: "I never knew that my sister has a hobby of making friends with food."
"oops!"
I don’t know if the chipmunk was angry or scared, but the hair on his body suddenly exploded and became furry all over. Wenying was angry. She balled up the chipmunk with both hands and glared at Hanshang.
"It is a new-born monster that was cultivated when you were not at home. Don't forget, it was you who taught me not to eat the newly-trained monster casually. I have never even hurt its family members."
"After all, they only have a short lifespan." Han Chang continued to joke, "Besides, they are so small that they are not big enough to fit between teeth. If it is a snow hare or a roe deer, it will not be able to escape your mouth."
The chipmunk poked its head out from the gap in the tiger's mouth.
"I've never heard of Wenying's brother being so unable to speak!"
"Now, now you know."
Xie Zhe wanted to laugh, but felt that it was not very kind, so he controlled his expression. But when he looked at Ling Huan again, his smile turned into a flower, and he also grinned infectiously. The chipmunk ignored him and said seriously to Wenying:
"Go back quickly. There have been a few strange people on the mountain in the past two days..."
"weirdo?"
"Well, even grandma said they came with bad intentions...especially since you wrote a letter saying that you were coming back. In short, they are all monsters and very violent. One of them came yesterday, and he is said to be a very impermanent person. Good person... maybe she is here to deal with those guys. There hasn't been any trouble yet, but I'm afraid something will happen soon. Grandma has asked us to move down the mountain to avoid the limelight. "
Wenying was a little confused. She and her friend looked at each other, neither of them having a clue.
"How could this happen? Whether it is the coveted Yunwai Realm or the Tianquan Eye... they are no longer here. What else is there in this place that attracts outsiders?"
"Don't mention it. Since Tianquanyan was taken away, many places where people can live have gradually disappeared." The chipmunk's tone sounded a little sad, "Many monsters have starved to death. In order to survive, everyone almost killed each other, but still Grandma means what she says... She has already persuaded many people to leave. If this continues, Suiyun Peak will really become lifeless."
"We... better go back quickly."
The chipmunk said that the disappearance of the Tianquan Eye caused many changes in the spiritual veins on the ground. Fortunately, it knew the way. Under its leadership, within a morning, several people arrived near their home. It is the same here as before, even in this late summer and July, there is still white snow everywhere. It seems that the overall spiritual field here will not be changed by the Tianquan Eye.
They saw the friendly little house from a distance. It was crystal clear and there was no snow on the roof. After all, ice infused with spiritual power will not melt so easily.
"We help clean it up from time to time," said the Chipmunk.
Ling Huan was looking at the house in fascination and couldn't wait to go in and take a look. But at this moment, her keen hearing caught the rustling sound in the quiet snow-capped mountains. Like footsteps on snow - far behind. She turned around suddenly and saw a red figure high up. The shadow probably noticed her and suddenly disappeared.
"There... there is a shadow, it looks like Lord Kutsutsuki." Her voice was trembling.
It had only been half a month since their last meeting, but the experience at that time was still very clear to them. So they immediately became more vigilant, and Han Chang asked:
"Are you sure? The little guy just said that there is indeed a monster coming. What you said is really scary."
"I don't know, but it is indeed dressed in red...it's so strange."
Xie Zhe immediately made a judgment: "In this case, Ling Hu and I will go take a look together. It is best to rule out this possibility."
"What if it's really him? You must never fight each other." Wenying became anxious, "You're not afraid of a fight, but I'm worried that Ling Huan will be involved."
"Don't worry, I will distance myself from him."
While several people were talking, the timid chipmunk seemed to smell something and hid uneasily, but Wenying didn't pay attention. Just when the discussion was over, there was another loud noise in the completely opposite direction. This time, they all heard clearly. The sound was a bit scary, like an angry, sharp roar from some creature. And none of them could tell what kind of creature it was. Animal or monster? It won't be human anyway.
Who would have thought that just after hearing some disturbing news, something disturbing would happen immediately. They were having some trouble. After all, how could there be anything big enough to make such a roar on such a snowy mountain? After thinking about it, Han Chang made a suggestion.
"Let's see... Lao Xie and Ling Huan went to see if there was really any trace of the impermanence nearby. Wenying went to her grandma first to see if she was okay and to find out what happened in the past few days. I'll go Let’s investigate the place where the sound came from just now, and if anything is wrong, I’ll let you know immediately.”
No one had any objections. After the division of labor, the four people immediately started taking action. Han Chang ran very fast because he couldn't figure out why the place where he had lived for so long couldn't be more peaceful after he left. The voice never came again, but he knew it wouldn't be that simple. After running for a while, he was already far away from their hut, and he actually saw a group of red appearing in the vast snow.
what is that?
Han Zhang could smell a trace of blood in the air. He knew, of course he knew what it was...
He just never imagined that he would see it here and in this form.
