A huge mouth suddenly jumped out of the water, causing rapid splashing sounds and rolling waves.
A huge suction force was aimed at Zihua, sucking Zihua into the giant mouth.
The power Zihua used was just enough to fly, but she never expected that there would be such a powerful monster hiding in the mortal world.
Without noticing for a moment, he was sucked down by the suction force.
Huh?
Zihua did not avoid it, nor did she immediately use her killing move, but fell down along with the suction.
The closer you get, the bigger mouth can be seen more clearly.
The huge mouth is more than ten feet wide, and it is filled with thin and dense long protrusions. Living creatures sucked into the mouth will be entangled in these protrusions like heavy traps, making it difficult to escape.
When Zihua was about to be swallowed by the giant mouth, she released her spiritual power, covering the entire giant mouth monster.
The giant-mouthed monster screamed and tried to sink into the water. How could Zihua let it go? She stretched out her hand to grab it and threw it into the three-nothing space.
The disappearance of the giant mouth monster caused the water surface to turbulent for a while, and then returned to calm.
Zi Hua, on the other hand, was not very good. She used more mental power than her body could bear and damaged her body. She threw a healing pill into her mouth and flew to the other side of the small lake.
I looked for the red-browed ape again and found that it was hiding in a stone gap. It must have been frightened by the giant-mouthed monster.
She landed on top of a crack in the rocks. The red-browed ape discovered her, sensed the danger, and ran out of the gap between the stones with a roar, trying to escape into the dense forest.
Zihua had nothing to say to an evil ape whose IQ was deficient, so she took out the original owner's machete and chopped it down.
Kill with one knife.
The original wish for revenge was fulfilled.
Seeing the dark and dirty corpse of the red-browed ape, Zihua was disgusted and left without taking the valuable red-browed ape fur.
Zihua fell down before flying out of the forest.
It's not that she doesn't want to fly, it's just that her body can't bear it anymore.
Although the energy used for flying is small, if it is used continuously, it is not something that the current body can bear.
Taking healing medicine can cure the damage caused to the body, but if the damage occurs too often, it will damage the fundamentals of the body.
This body cannot use the method of cultivating immortals to enhance the body and soul, so we have to find another way.
The original owner's source of livelihood was collecting herbs, and Zihua collected them all the time. Some of them were put in the basket on her back, and more were put in the space.
After leaving the forest, we saw a small town.
The town is called Fenglai. It is a small town with one main street running through the entire town.
However, the original owner did not live in the town. She lived in a large courtyard two miles away from the town.
This courtyard is quite large, so big that it includes an entire and semi-surrounded mountain col into the courtyard, and there is also a 100-meter-high mountain peak in the courtyard.
It is called a courtyard because, apart from being large, the courtyard is no different in appearance from other courtyards in the town. It has a blue brick wall more than two meters high, a double vermilion door, and a stone beast that guards the house on each side of the door.
In such a large courtyard, only the original person lived.
The yard was built by Guan Niang who brought the original owner to Fenglai Town.
At that time, the original owner's name was still Jian Ya.
Jian Ya's earliest memory was when she woke up from Guan Niang's arms and heard Guan Niang call her, "Jian Ya, we're here." Then Guan Ya put her down and walked into Fenglai Town holding her hand.
Jian Ya was just over two years old at the time. Guan Niang said she was her mother, but she never doubted it.
Guan Niang was very kind to her, and her food and clothing were better than those of other children in the town. She always spoke softly to her, never hit her, never scolded her, and never even said a harsh word to her.
Guan Niang built such a big yard and said it was built for her. She was very happy.
There are many houses built in the yard, and the furnishings in each house are different, but they are all beautiful. The game she plays most often is to "treasure hunt" in different houses.
It's just that Guan Niang doesn't often accompany her, because Guan Niang is a monk who needs to practice, and she often has to go outside to find the items needed for practice.
But Jian Ya is not alone, because Guan Niang puts many puppets in the yard, and the puppets help her take care of the yard and play with her.
This happy life ended one day when Jian Ya was eight years old.
Guan Niang changed her usual attitude, her gentle smile disappeared from her face, and she said lightly, "I have to leave for a long time for something, so you can stay here by yourself."
Jian Ya was very scared at the time because Guan Niang took back all the puppets and everything in Guan Niang's room in front of her.
She cried, "Mom, when will you come back?"
She wanted to throw herself into Guan Niang's arms, but Guan Niang dodged her. Jian Ya missed her and fell to the ground.
In the past, Guan Niang would have gently helped Jian Ya up, but not this time. Guan Niang only glanced at her and said, "Just wait, I'll come back when I finish my work."
After saying that, Yu Jian left.
From then on, Jian Ya lived here alone and never waited for Guan Niang to come back.
When Jian Ya got older, she began to have some doubts about whether Guan Niang was her mother.
At that time, she also learned to read and write from Dr. Luo in the town, and she began to think about things she had never dared to think about before.
Jian Ya, Jian Ya.
Wan Niang, Wan Niang.
If this is a coincidence, what a coincidence.
Jian Ya found that she knew nothing about Guan Niang except that she was a monk.
Guan Niang never told her about her past, and she didn't even know her last name.
Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, Jian Ya didn't want to be called this name anymore.
The flower she has seen most since she was a child is the peony in the yard. She took Yu as her surname and gave herself the name Jade Peony.
She has been waiting for twenty years.
It's not like she was waiting specially. She didn't know where she came from or her name, and she had no place to go except Fenglai Town.
Later, she suspected that Guan Niang's appearance was not necessarily real, because it was easy for a monk to change his appearance.
She persistently wanted to wait for Guan Niang, but she just wanted to ask why, why she was brought here, and why she was thrown here again.
…
The place where Zihua came out is on the north side of the town, and the original owner's home is on the south side of the town.
Zi Hua entered the small town and turned into the drug store where the original owner often went to sell medicine.
Seeing her come in, shopkeeper Du from the medicine shop greeted her, "Peony, we have gone into the mountains again. We picked a lot today. By the way, have you encountered snake grass?"
Zi Hua took a look and saw that Shopkeeper Du was also a mortal. Along the way, the people she met were all mortals. This was consistent with the memory of the original owner. Fenglai Town was a mortal town.
She imitated the original owner's habit and responded, "I'm going into the mountains. I really picked snake grass today, but I only encountered one."
Shopkeeper Du hurriedly walked out of the counter, "Where is it? Let me see how it looks."
Zihua took out the snake grass from the basket on her back.
"It's an eight-year-old plant, not bad." Shopkeeper Du said happily, "You saved my worries. I'll give you a higher price for this plant."
"Thank you, Uncle Du." Zihua took out all the herbs in the basket.
She put everything she could use into the space. What was left in the basket were mostly ordinary medicinal herbs, which were not very valuable. She sold them for a total of one spirit bead and three silver coins.
