"I turned to Mu Yao and met my benefactor~" The girl in the green dress smiled lightly, like a hundred flowers in bloom.
Her demon name is Xiangyao, but it has the same pronunciation as "subdue the demon", which is not very auspicious for demons, so she has always declared her name to be Xiang Muyao. Only after meeting her husband and giving her a vow of kiss, she Will tell you your real name.
Xiang Yao raised her eyes to look at Su Luo and said softly: "You must be the Ice Flame Sword Saint. Even if I live in the grassland, I often hear your name."
Su Luo remained highly vigilant and said in a deep voice:
"I'm just a monk with one skill. You're mistaken."
Xiangyao's face showed a look of joy, she covered her mouth and said with a smile:
"When you swung that sword that day, I looked far into the mountains and forests, but I only found traces of a young monk. At first, I couldn't believe that the man who killed the obscene dragon was actually a man who could even accumulate energy to perfection. A young man who has never reached this level, but when I see you today, the two sharp weapons in your hands are both made of dragon horns..."
Su Luo's eyes moved slightly, then he no longer concealed his identity and spoke calmly:
"Well, I am what others call the Ice Flame Sword Saint."
Hear the words.
Xiangyao lifted up her long skirt, made a gentle lady's bow, and said with great gratitude:
"I am originally from the grassland toon clan and have never harmed any human beings. These days, the evil dragon is causing trouble in the grassland. Even my parents were poisoned by it. Many monsters dare not speak out in anger.
The day before yesterday, my benefactor killed the obscene dragon with his sword, which really saved the lives of thousands of creatures in the grassland. I only represent all the creatures in the grassland to express my gratitude to my benefactor. "
"In addition, my benefactor visited the grassland late at night. I wonder what happened to him? If I can help, I will definitely die without mercy!"
She is a well-educated lady... Su Luo thought for a moment and then expressed his needs:
"Do you have a high-quality condensation pill in your hand?"
Hear the words.
Xiangyao's face showed a trace of embarrassment and she said:
"This request of yours is difficult to say and easy to say..."
Su Luo raised his eyebrows slightly and cast his doubtful eyes over.
Xiangyao hesitated for a long time, and after sighing for a long time, he said in a serious tone:
"My benefactor, next, I will reveal to you a shocking secret in the northwest grasslands that has been sealed for thirty years. You must promise me that you will never reveal it to anyone."
Su Luo nodded and said with a smile: "A gentleman's words are hard to catch up with!"
Xiangyao reached out and waved, and a huge map suddenly appeared in mid-air. Su Luo looked closely and realized that it was a simple map of the grassland, with dozens of landmarks marked on it.
but……
In the center of the grassland, a blood-red skull was suddenly marked, full of ferocity!
Seeing that Su Luo had noticed the existence of the skull, Xiang Yao asked softly:
"Lord benefactor, do you know anything about Two Realms Mountain?"
"Understand a little bit."
Su Luo recalled the responses from hundreds of Zhihu netizens, who greatly enriched his knowledge of Liangjie Mountain.
The so-called Two Realm Mountains are the 100,000 mountains formed by the uplift of the earth's crust due to the "celestial convergence" phenomenon that occurred between the world of Daxia and the world of monsters. Northwest Daxia and the world of monsters squeezed each other.
It contains immeasurably rich resources.
For cheap meat, eggs, and milk, for eight yuan a pound of beef, and for thirty cents a piece of fried buns with onion and meat, a race war has broken out between humans and demons that has lasted for hundreds of years.
A hundred years ago, the first all-out war broke out between humans and demons. The bloody battle lasted for four years and was called the First Battle of Two Realms Mountains by historians;
Forty years ago, the battle in which tens of thousands of classical Taoists died was the turning point of the Second Battle of Two Worlds Mountain.
To this day, the overt and covert fighting between the two races never stops for a moment.
Xiangyao's eyes were complicated and she suddenly said:
"The place marked by the blood-red skull is an extremely secret celestial intersection."
Su Luo was so surprised that he stared at Xiang Yao's face and said in surprise:
"Keqing City is at least several thousand miles away from Liangjie Mountain, right?"
Xiangyao shook her head and explained:
“The phenomenon of celestial convergence is essentially the overlapping and splicing of two worlds, which will inevitably lead to instability in space.
Whether it is Daxia itself or the demon realms, there will be many small space cracks that can instantly reach the Two Realms Mountain area.
And deep in the northwest grassland, the place marked by the blood-red skull, is a new space crack after the second battle of the Two Boundary Mountains, linking a certain desolate war ruins.
My parents are local monsters. They are peace-loving by nature and do not want the grassland to become a meat grinding ground between humans and monsters, so they have been guarding here secretly. They have placed high-level secret magic circles on both sides and are waiting silently here. The cracks are closing again.
We have been waiting for thirty years, and the cracks in the space finally show signs of being eliminated. My father said that in half a year at most, the space will be completely closed.
But it happened to be this critical moment.
I was horrified to find that my parents' life soul lamps were both extinguished in an instant.
On the grassland, a powerful three-headed dragon also appeared.
Thinking about it, it entered the grassland through the crack after killing my parents. "
Xiang Yao's eyebrows were lowered, her shoulders were shaking slightly, and a series of tears fell silently.
Su Luo sighed, not knowing whether what Xiangyao's parents did was right or wrong.
a long time.
Xiangyao finally recovered her mood and returned to the topic:
"My dear benefactor, the high-grade Condensation Pill you want is at the other end of the crack. Among the ruins of the war, there is a medicine refining workshop. It is a leftover building from the Second Battle of Liangjie Mountain. My parents said that there are also various precious elixirs stored in it.
As a plant spirit, I can't move the tree body without entering the exterior. At the moment, it's just a fake body for walking. I can't get the elixir for my benefactor, but I believe that my benefactor can kill the evil dragon. , there must be a way to enter it. "
Su Luo was silent for a long time and said in a deep voice:
"How much time is left for the cracks to close?"
Xiangyao smiled lightly: "About... there are only about ten days left."
Su Luo understood clearly.
Whether it is the human race or the demon side, the space cracks that only lasted for ten days have lost most of their military value.
Thinking of this, Su Luo said sincerely:
"Thank you for being willing to take the risk and tell me this secret. Your parents have protected this grassland for thirty years. I don't agree with his idea, but I am willing to keep the secret for you for another two weeks.
And after two weeks, if the cracks are still not closed, I will report it to the Starry Sky Martial Arts Hall and let them handle the matter. Can you understand? "
Xiangyao nodded.
…………
The other end of the space rift.
The dim sky, the gray earth, this is the ruins of the war somewhere in the Liangjie Mountains as Xiang Yao said.
When asked about the origin of ghost magic, the old snake catcher Liu Lao stood here, holding a bamboo cage in his hand, and a cold snake sound "hissing" came from inside.
He stared into the depths of the ruins, frowned and sighed:
"The cracks are about to close, but it's just a piece of chicken ribs, tasteless..."
