After fighting against the love and desire in her heart for nearly an hour, the fox girl bit her lip and it was dripping with blood. She finally resisted the attack of the damn poison and survived all kinds of hallucinations.
Her whole body looked like it had been fished out of water. The white dress was soaked and clung to her body, making her look graceful.
She had never cultivated her mind very much, but she suffered a lot this time.
A bonfire was burning beside the stream a few feet away, and fragrant fish soup was cooking on the stone stove.
She saw Zhang Guanzhu sitting with his back to her, drinking fish soup from a bamboo tube, and the donkey wandering in the distance.
Xinyue got up, and under the bright light of the fire, she found that the two wolf skins she was sitting on were soaked and messy. Her face turned slightly red, and she hurriedly rolled up the wolf skins and walked towards the upstream direction of the stream.
After a long time, the fox girl felt refreshed after being washed. She was wrapped in a short animal skin skirt that dripped water, exposing a large area of skin. She walked to the fire wearing straw sandals and put the washed white skirt and wolf skin on it. Baking on firewood near fire.
Zhang Wenfeng glanced at the bold fox girl, who was very white and big. He turned around and said: "Lu Zijin found a cave nearby. I went to see it. The place is big enough. Let's just rest here tonight. You go first?" Fill your stomach.”
Xin Yue silently finished the hot grilled fish and the delicious fish soup with purple ginseng whiskers.
He went to a dark place and put on a half-dry white dress. He hesitated for a while when he came back and said, "Three miles up the mountain stream is Guiwei Valley. How about we go there to have a rest? Guiwei Valley is where the ancestor of Nine Lives retreated and slept. It’s a safe place and will not be disturbed.”
She was worried that there would be powerful ghosts roaming around after midnight.
The Nine Lives Ancestor's vague information revealed that the foot of the mountain is not a good place.
Zhang Guanzhu has the means to expel the little ghosts controlled by the Albizia Tree Demon, but his ability is limited by the forbidden law, so there is no need to take the risk of fighting against the big ghosts.
Zhang Wenfeng followed the advice smoothly, nodded in agreement, called for the donkey to come over, tied the baskets and goods properly, applied grease to the chopped firewood, extinguished the bonfire, lit a simple torch made of firewood and walked north along the winding mountain stream.
"Is there anything wrong with this place?"
"It's fine during the day. There may be ghosts patrolling around at night, so we'd better stay away."
"What kind of evil spirit?"
"The ancestor didn't go into details, so I guess it's a third-level ghost."
The two chatted softly, and various strange sounds came from the mountain. The roars of beasts, howls of owls, and howls of ghosts were mixed together, one after another, which was very scary. Suddenly there was the sound of flying wings of birds approaching in the air nearby.
Zhang Wenfeng drew his sword and stabbed it. "Pfft", a black strange bird with green eyes like a bat, with wings about three feet wide, suddenly turned into the air, but still couldn't avoid it, and the sword fell to the ground.
"It's a first-level ghost-eyed demon bat, somewhere between a monster and a ghost beast. Its teeth and claws are extremely poisonous."
Xin Yue explained in her mouth, quickly pulled out the wrist blade, stabbed the neck of the struggling and screaming strange bird on the ground, killed the strange bird, quickened her pace and walked forward, saying: "The blood and meat of this thing are poisonous and cannot be eaten. . Let’s go quickly, these little things are very annoying.”
A piercing scream echoed in the distance.
Xin Yue quickly pulled out a piece of dry firewood from the edge of the cargo on the donkey's back and lit it with a torch.
"Almost there, come this way."
Xin Yue held up the torch and ran towards the middle of the two three-foot-tall boulders facing each other that appeared on the right.
The donkey followed closely with the things on its back. After Zhang Wenfeng died, he swung his sword one after another and stabbed two flying ghost-eyed monster bats to death without letting the poisonous blood splash on him. These monsters were not afraid of death and flew from a distance. More ghost-eyed monster bats appeared, and the screams were quite alarming.
Xinyue rushed into an open forest valley, chanted a spell in her mouth, and pressed her hands on the moss-covered stone pillars in the valley.
Following Zhang Wenfeng, who ran into the valley, the torch in his hand suddenly went out. The cold wind blew by, giving him a thrilling feeling of hair standing on end. He felt like he was being targeted by something powerful.
The donkey didn't dare to move, because he didn't know what the fox girl had activated.
Silently, a terrifying invisible monster seemed to be released from the darkness.
All the ghost-eyed demon bats that rushed towards them were so frightened that they urinated and turned around in a hurry to flee for their lives. Then they exploded in the air, and a bloody rain of broken limbs and pieces of flesh fell fifty feet outside the valley.
The ghost-eyed demon bat that was lucky enough to escape with his life will probably never dare to approach this place again for the rest of his life.
The torch in Xin Yue's hand had already been extinguished and was thrown away by her. The stone pillar she was pressing on emitted white light. In a moment, all the moss turned into ashes and fell down. A fuzzy white fox with a majestic head and horns was revealed hovering on the pillar. , two points of strange dark blue light flashed in his eyes.
The entire valley was illuminated by stone pillars, and a light wave portal appeared at the mouth of the valley.
Xin Yue took her palm away from the stone pillar, put her right hand on her left chest, saluted the stone pillar, and said something in fox language.
Zhang Wenfeng pointed the sword tip of his right hand downwards at the ground. A few drops of blood dripped down. His whole body was tense and alert. This valley gave him a very bad feeling. He suddenly said: "Xin Yue, please tell me, senior. Lu Zijin and I can just live outside Guiwei Valley so as not to disturb the purity of our seniors."
He guessed that Xin Yue was communicating with the remnant soul of the white fox on the pillar about the problems they left behind.
This place was so dangerous that he didn't dare to stay even for just one night. He took the initiative not to embarrass the fox girl because he was thinking about his own safety.
The blurry white fox on the stone pillar stared at the Taoist priest, then glanced at the black cloth bag on the Taoist priest's waist, and the strange light flickered subtly.
Zhang Wenfeng looked calm, but in fact, his heart was pounding, and the remaining soul was not easy to deal with.
Xinyue watched the remnant soul of the white fox on the stone pillar disappear. She bowed and bowed, came over and apologized: "I feel sorry for you to wait for me outside the valley for a while. The fuyao fruit in the valley is not yet fully mature."
When she got here, she didn't mind saying the three words Fuyao Fruit, sent out the light wave portal, walked to the left with her, and whispered: "Don't worry, the conditions I agreed to will not change." This was her promise.
Zhang Wenfeng used the light just now and did not find any Fuyao fruit trees in the valley. He guessed that there was something else going on in the valley.
After experiencing several life and death tribulations together, we established mutual trust with the fox girl, and said with a smile: "I can trust you, and you can't rely on me even if you want to. Go back, Lu Zi and I will go to the cave we found earlier to rest." .”
Walking out of the valley, I immediately felt comfortable.
There were many dangers on the path of cultivation, and he realized that he had just walked back and forth on the edge of life and death.
The land of forbidden laws was on someone else's territory, and he had no means to resist the strange attack of the remnant soul of the fox demon.
Xin Yue shook her head: "That place is not safe. There is a cave that was left many years ago within fifty feet outside the valley. The Zhengu Fox Spirit allows you to live there, so don't shirk it politely."
Blinking his eyes, he took Guanzhu Zhang's hand and squeezed it hard.
The fox girl hinted so clearly that Zhang Wenfeng would no longer refuse and said, "Okay, thank you for your kindness."
After walking thirty or forty feet, they saw a dark cave revealed at a height of seven or eight feet on the hillside. The two climbed in and walked around. Inside was a wide cave with a stone hall and three stone chambers. They cleaned it a little. You can check in.
Xin Yue quickly folded branches and hemp poles and tied them together to make a broom. Together with Guanzhu Zhang, she cleaned the inside and outside of the cave. She unloaded the goods on the donkey's back and moved them into the cave. Then she jumped down and walked towards the valley. She turned around and smiled sweetly, saying : "I'll come over tomorrow and let's grill fish together. Zhang Guanzhu, you were right not to help me remove the remaining poison."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Zhang Wenfeng smiled and replied.
The last sentence of the fox girl scared him into a cold sweat. His counter-indoctrination methods could not remove the remaining poison of acacia, except for using yin and yang to reconcile it.
However, Xin Yue did not arrive the next day.
He deliberately caught a few more fish in the depths of the mountain stream. By the evening, Xin Yue was not seen walking out of the mist-filled ghost valley. Zhang Wenfeng ate eight half-foot-long grilled fish by himself.
The donkey gnawed the grass boredly, feeling tasteless in his mouth. The less he could drink, the more panicked he became.
You can't tell it to the owner of the temple, otherwise the owner will have to give it baskets and baskets of reasons to help it sharpen its mind and reduce its appetite.
It guessed that the vixen was hiding in the valley, eating and drinking alone.
Otherwise, who could survive a whole day without coming out for a drink of water?
The vixen didn't bring anything to eat or drink with her.
