First, they visited the Buddhist holy land, and then, the Ling family siblings went south and came to a mountain called "Quanzhen".
On this Quanzhen Mountain, there once was a Taoist sect called the Quanzhen Sect, but it was later destroyed by demons and monsters. The sect was completely destroyed, and not a single disciple survived!
The demons shared the spoils unevenly, and in order to carve up this piece of fat meat, they fought with each other, and finally ended up with the ridiculous end of nearly dying together.
Ling Pu, the powerful vassal king in the northern part of the Jinxiu Dynasty, finally sent troops to put an end to the war and completely wiped out the remaining demon sect evildoers in Quanzhen Mountain.
Therefore, in this place that was once full of Taoism and where countless Taoist believers practiced devoutly all day long, there are no people, no Taoist sects, and no demon followers.
Ling Zhen was originally not very interested in a place like this where all the great achievements were taken by his father alone, because he would easily feel inferior if he went there too much, and felt that he might not be able to catch up with his father Ling Pu in his whole life.
It may even lead to laziness. Subconsciously, you feel that you have such a powerful biological father, so why should you practice hard? It is extremely easy to influence the Taoist mind.
But today, he and his eighth sister, Ling Xiaoxiao, walked up the mountain along the road where countless people died in the past, towards Quanzhen Mountain.
The reason is quite simple. When passing by the foot of Quanzhen Mountain, the Ling family siblings met a little girl's family in an open-air wine shop by the roadside.
The parents look ordinary, but the little girl is really cute, with delicate and beautiful facial features, which can rival the girl-like Ling Xiaoxiao!
The face shape is also very good. Although the cheeks are a little bulging, she has a beautiful point. I think when she grows older and her face becomes longer, the small point will also become bigger.
By then, her face and facial features will be more three-dimensional than now, becoming more and more graceful and beautiful!
Ling Zhen really liked this cute-looking little girl. After a brief chat with her, he learned that the girl's name was Xiao Taozi and that today happened to be her tenth birthday.
Ling Zhen couldn't help but stretched out her hand and gently pinched one of the little girl's cheeks. That cheek was already red, but it became even redder when being pinched by a romantic and handsome young man like Ling Zhen.
True to its name, it is like a big juicy peach just picked from the tree. Just looking at it makes people feel good and can even whet their appetite.
Ling Zhen ordered a few large plates of soy beef and rice wine from the stall owner, and quietly paid the bill for the family of three, then sat down again.
Chatting with the little girl Taozi.
After chatting for a while, I remembered that since today is Xiao Taozi's birthday, I should give something to express my gratitude.
However, most of the items in my ring are priceless treasures. It is really not suitable to take out such things and show them to ordinary people. It is easy to scare them on the spot and refuse to accept them. That would be embarrassing!
After thinking about it, I still haven't decided what to give. I wouldn't just take out some gold and silver bills and just put them on the roadside for a family of three to pick them up by accident, right?
While Ling Zhen was thinking, the cute girl Xiao Taozi suddenly pouted and said to her father: "Dad, can we really not climb that Quanzhen Mountain today? You promised me to go to the other side of the mountain. Let’s go shopping in the market to celebrate my birthday! It’s my tenth birthday, and I’m only ten years old in this life!”
The girl's father sighed and said in a deep voice: "I can't help it. It's really impossible today. I also made a mistake. I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. I can only wait until I take a long way tomorrow, and dad will make up for you." A birthday is all.”
Xiao Taozi was obviously very unhappy, "But tomorrow is not my birthday, so there is no commemorative meaning in making up for it..."
Ling Zhen on the side was curious and asked: "Why are you not allowed to go up the mountain?"
The father did not change his frown, and said in a very bad mood: "Didn't you see the notice posted at the foot of the mountain? On this mountain, there is now a ferocious beast that eats without spitting out its bones. It's so powerful! We still have to wait." Where do you dare to go up the mountain?"
Ling Zhen immediately became very excited after hearing this.
Ling Xiaoxiao, who was also sitting next to him, asked, "What level of ferocious beast is that? What's its name?"
The old father said: "It is a medium-grade porcupine, called a six-toothed porcupine. Many local brave people have gone up to hunt it, but without exception, they all became the meal of the pig spirit. Alas, it is so pitiful." !”
Ling Zhen burst into laughter immediately, and the sound of laughter made everyone in the wine stall look at him with suspicion.
Xiao Taozi's mother asked in confusion: "Master, why are you... laughing?"
Ling Zhen laughed for a while before he stopped and said, "It's just a middle-grade ferocious beast. Let me go up the mountain to kill the beast, and then come down to you with the pig's head!"
The three members of Xiao Taozi's family were all shocked and speechless. They even thought that this young man in green robe was actually a maniac.
At this time, the owner of the wine shop also came over. Due to the ferocious beasts on Quanzhen Mountain, his wine shop's business had plummeted, so he hated the six-toothed porcupine.
He heard Ling Zhen's words, walked over with a smile, and said loudly: "Brother, if you can really kill that pig monster, come down and drink as much wine from me as you want!"
Ling Zhen grinned, put two fingers together, and shot a ray of true energy into a wine jar on the table.
Relying on the true energy refined from the natal water spirit root, the natal internal power of the water attribute, under the control of Ling Zhen, a stream of sake slowly rose from the altar like a small snake!
While performing this magical "water diversion" skill that would horrify ordinary people, Ling Zhen said firmly: "Little Taozi, just wait for my good news at the foot of the mountain with your parents!"
But as it was approaching noon that day, Ling Zhen and Eighth Sister Xiaoxiao had been searching in the mountains for a while, but they still saw no sign of any ferocious beast.
"Hey, why doesn't that porcupine come out? It's trying to kill me!"
Ling Xiaoxiao, who looked like a girl in white, was dissatisfied because she had been searching for so long with no results, and she muttered rather resentfully.
Ling Zhen was still searching patiently, calming down his mind, searching bit by bit for any trace of spirituality in the huge Quanzhen Mountain.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it will happen."
Ling Zhen smiled and teased, "Sister Xiaoxiao, you have such tender skin and tender flesh. The wild boar spirit must be very interested in you and salivate..."
Ling Xiaoxiao was made a joke by her brother, so she punched Ling Zhen on the shoulder angrily, and scolded: "I should take off all your clothes, sprinkle with barbecue ingredients, and bake on the fire. As soon as the aroma wafts out, the wild boar will smell the aroma." Coming here!"
Ling Zhen smiled casually a few more times, and suddenly said: "By the way, Sister Xiaoxiao, it's the same old rules this time. Don't take the credit from me. I must kill this six-toothed porcupine myself, and then carry the head down the mountain and treat it as a A birthday present for Little Taozi.”
"I know, I know, are you annoyed? I didn't say I wanted to rob you. Just kill your pig. I'll watch you kill the pig from the side."
Ling Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, "You are so attentive, why are you rushing to become the son-in-law of Xiao Taozi's family?"
Ling Zhen waved his hand, "My relationship with Xiao Taozi is like brother and sister, do you understand? I have too many sisters, eight in total, which is very annoying. I really hope my mother can give me a sister." Come out, how fun it is... What a pity!"
Ling Xiaoxiao slapped her brother's body again and cursed, "You have so many sisters taking care of you and looking after you, do you still dislike me?"
Ling Zhen felt a little pain from being patted, and said with a wry smile: "I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it. How could I dislike such a beautiful sister like me? I'll kill the wild boar later and barbecue the pork for you in the forest!"
Ling Xiaoxiao shook her head, "Farewell, let's go down the mountain as soon as we kill the six-toothed porcupine. Little Taozi is still waiting to cross the mountain and go to the market on the other side to celebrate her birthday."
Ling Zhen reached out and rubbed the eighth sister's head, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "My sister Xiaoxiao is really considerate and considerate of others. She is indeed my best sister, Ling Zhen!"
I don’t know how long I have been hiking on Quanzhen Mountain, the former Taoist holy land, when suddenly a strong howling wind blew in the mountain, and it was cold and cold.
Then, there was a terrifying and extremely frightening roar, coming from a very far away place, as fast as an arrow flying thousands of miles!
Ling Xiaoxiao usually pays no attention to physical fitness in his daily practice, so his body is not considered strong, and he was suddenly shaken by the cold wind.
Ling Zhen, a young man wearing a green robe, suddenly became serious. He no longer smiled playfully with his sister beside him. He looked straight ahead and said two words seriously: "Here we come."
The dark wind rises, and the ferocious beast emerges!
