At a glance, I saw a gust of evil wind suddenly blowing in the peaceful mountain forest.
A harsh whine sounded from behind the crow, and a three-foot-long snake demon appeared in Ximen Mengdie's eyes. The key was that this guy had a pair of wings on his back.
The moment Yu soared into the sky, he followed the crow from a distance, and with a roar, he rushed towards the crow and Ximen Mengdie.
And behind the snake demon, there was a scream of horror...
Before Ximen Mengdie could speak, the crow roared: "Don't mess with those guys, they're vampire bats. Why did they suddenly come out of this damn place?"
Ximen Mengdie put away the spirit sword, took out an iron bow and put the talisman arrows on it. "Swish, swish, swish!" Then the three talisman arrows went towards the group of flying bats.
When Crow saw Ximen Mengdie taking out his bow and arrows to deal with the vampire bats, he immediately stopped and planned to deal with the snake demon that rushed towards him.
Just when Ximen Mengdie shot three talisman arrows, more and more bats flew in the sky, making squeaking sounds that made people's scalp numb.
The crow was shocked and looked back at the chasing snake demon. Unexpectedly, this guy was also afraid of those bats, so he rushed towards it in fear.
Just when it was about to ask Li Xiuyuan for help, a burning sound of "Boom! Boom! Boom!" and an explosion sounded in the air.
But it was Ximen Mengdie who shot the rune arrows Li Xiuyuan had prepared for her, including burning runes and exploding runes.
For a moment, there was a shrill roar in the forest, and even the snake demons were afraid of being attacked by these guys, indicating that bats here are really difficult to deal with.
The snake demon chasing the crow was startled by the bursts of explosions. He turned around and saw that most of the densely packed bats behind him were burning and falling to the ground.
The rest wanted to continue chasing after them, but the crow turned its head and sprayed a ball of divine fire... and for a while, there were wailing sounds everywhere.
The bats flying all over the sky either died under the two divine fires, or turned around and flew away, disappearing into the mountains and forests.
Seeing that the danger behind him had passed, the Green Snake suddenly became bolder. With its wings waving, its long body actually flew up, and the crow rushed towards it.
But it didn't know that the crows were not afraid of it at all, but were afraid of those vampire bats before.
Seeing that the snake demon didn't know whether to live or die, he dared to trouble him. He was so angry that the crow transformed into a black lightning, and with a pair of wings like a spiritual sword, he slashed at the snake demon's huge body.
When Ximen Mengdie saw the crow fighting with this guy, he didn't know how to be afraid. Instead, he put away his bow and arrow and replaced it with a spiritual sword in his hand.
The snake demon twisted its huge body and flew up from the gaps in the woods, trying to swallow the crow in one mouthful.
Unexpectedly, the crow's wings were like a sharp sword slashing at the wings behind it. There was a "click!" and then a stream of blood splashed out.
But in this flash of lightning, the snake demon was slashed by the crow, and it was so angry that it yelled: "Those bats that flew just now didn't see you so cruel."
The crow looked at the snake demon that was lunging at it with its fangs and claws, and laughed: "I'm just afraid that they will suck my blood, aren't you afraid?"
Seeing that he was injured, the snake demon simply stopped fighting and lay on the ground playing rogue.
He shouted to the crow: "Hurry up and find me some elixir to replenish your health, otherwise I will make it impossible for you to leave this place forever."
Crow's eyes narrowed and he cried out: "Your uncle, you are working here, how can you not have any magic medicine?"
Xiao Ling'er was startled when he heard this, and flew over from the tree. With a sound of "Wang!", he pointed the spiritual sword in his hand at the snake demon on the ground and said, "Don't lie to Xiao Die'er!"
The snake demon shook his head, looked at Ximen Mengdie and said, "How could I lie to you?"
"Who are you?" Ximen Mengdie gently landed next to Crow and asked.
Although he had never dealt with monsters, Ximen Mengdie felt strange. With the cultivation of the snake monster in front of him, why could he speak human language but not transform?
Crow is not afraid of the snake monster at all. After all, he and Li Xiuyuan came all the way. What kind of monster has he not seen?
Now he jumped on Xiaodie'er's shoulder, looked at the snake demon and said with a smile:
"Tell me your reasons and see if Xiao Ling'er and I believe you."
"My name is Xiaoqing, are you blind?"
The snake demon glared at the crow, and said with a smile to Xiaodie: "I can't find a good elixir here. I'm afraid it will take fifty to a hundred years to transform..."
"so what?"
Xiaodie'er looked at the green snake on the ground nervously, shook her head and said, "You already have wings, why do you still have to practice for a hundred years? I don't have any magic medicine for you to cheat."
In fact, what Xiao Die'er wanted to say was that she had just come to this world with Crow and had finally saved a few elixirs. How could she just give them to a snake demon?
Unexpectedly, the snake demon looked at Crow and Xiaodie'er with disgust, and shook his head gently.
Said: "I have taken countless of the elixirs you have on you, but they are of no use to me...Only the boy who is with you has the treasure I need."
Taking a deep breath, the snake demon said: "If he is willing to help me, I estimate that it will take me at most ten years, or five years."
Xiao Die'er suddenly realized it and said with a smile: "So you are trying to trick my master?"
The crow also nodded, lowered his head and looked at the snake demon and said, "If I help you, what benefits can you give me?"
The snake demon sighed and said seriously: "There is a secret. If you don't know it, I'm afraid you will never be able to leave here. Trust me, I won't lie to you."
Crow thought about the thin stone path and couldn't help but ask: "Are you talking about the ten-mile path away?"
The snake demon nodded and laughed strangely: "That's not an ordinary road... Come on, please help me."
Crow thought for a while and replied, "Tell me the secret first, and then come back with me later, and let Senior Sister ask you and Li Xiuyuan for some elixir."
The snake demon glanced at Xiaodie'er. Xiaodie'er put away her spiritual sword, waved her hand and said, "Tell me, as long as you can help me, I will plead with the master and get some elixir for you."
The little girl was in a hurry to leave here, thinking that there must be many masters out there.
The snake demon nodded: "I want you to swear that you will not lie to me!"
"I swear, if I lie to you, I will be a crow forever!"
"I swear, if I lie to you, I will stay here with you forever!" Kan Shula
When the snake demon heard this, he smiled with satisfaction and watched the two guys come over and whisper, for fear that the mountain gods here would hear them.
After hearing this, the crow suddenly realized and said with a smile: "That's it, no wonder the road is so thin..."
Xiaodie'er was also horrified. She didn't expect that there was such a terrifying thing in this inconspicuous mountain forest!
Just as they were horrified, Li Xiuyuan from the mountain stream in the distance shouted: "What are you doing there, Duchu? Have you finished your homework for today?"
Xiao Die'er exclaimed: "Don't rush the master, we are coming."
After saying that, he giggled with the snake demon and said, "Since you didn't lie to me, I will take you to see the master. Follow me." After that, he flew forward and flew away.
"Wait for me……"
The snake demon let out a scream from behind, followed Xiaodie'er, flapped its wings and flew up.
Crow shook his head, leaned on Xiao Ling'er's shoulder, and whispered in her ear: "It really scared me to death. Fortunately, we met this guy."
Xiao Ling'er thought for a while and replied, "Don't tell the master about this yet. Then scare him."
The crow was frightened again and said viciously: "You are so cruel."
When Ximen Mengdie and Crow brought the snake demon to see Li Xiuyuan, Li Xiuyuan was not surprised, as if he had expected that there would be demons in this forest and that demons would come to his door.
Because there is no demon in his eyes, he cannot see the potential danger, or in other words, he ignores this mountain forest.
If this is the road to heaven, it is only the starting point of the road to heaven. If you are afraid of the dangers here, you might as well have stayed in Luoxia Mountain.
Green Snake has been staying far away these days, hiding in the dark and observing the young man in front of him.
Think about it from the beginning
After devouring it, it started to be afraid, and now it has some awe, because it knew that it needed the boy's help.
So it stepped forward and saluted Li Xiuyuan, regardless of whether the young man in front of it could see it or not.
Then he said very directly: "This little girl has been practicing hard for a long time, but she still can't find the opportunity to transform. Please help me, sir. Thank you."
The snake demon changed his tone and did not speak like he was threatening the crow.
Li Xiuyuan nodded and asked: "Everything has the heart to cultivate Taoism... What is the name of this mountain forest? Do you have any companions who have taken the form in your memory?"
At this moment, Li Xiuyuan remembered the difficulty of Xiao Qing's transformation. At that time, he gave Xiao Qing countless elixirs, and finally went to the Demon Realm to fulfill Xiao Qing's wish.
The snake demon looked at him and smiled: "I call this place the Devil's Forest. Ever since I was sensible, I have never seen a monster transform."
Li Xiuyuan sighed after hearing this, and then asked, "Have you never left here?"
The snake demon shook his head and replied seriously: "Unless I can transform into a human, I can't leave from that path, so I'm here to beg you..."
Li Xiuyuan sighed silently in his heart when he heard this: "I'm afraid countless seniors have confirmed this for you, or maybe they all died on that trail, right?"
"That's right, that trail has a terrifying name called 'Impermanence'. Only you human monks can pass through it. We can only die if we go in."
The snake demon sighed quietly and said, "This mountain is very strange. Even birds can't leave. The only way out is the trail."
After saying that, I couldn't help but glance at the crow.
Somehow, the crow actually trembled slightly after hearing this. Come to think of it, I've flown back and forth before, and I haven't seen any danger?
However, it didn't want to disturb Li Xiu's pinhole thoughts at this time.
Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly, pointed to the humming spring water on the stove in front of him, and replied: "I can treat you to a pot of spiritual tea, and then read to you the Buddhist scriptures on the stone wall behind you..."
"How much you understand and how much you can remember depends on your fate."
Only then did the snake demon realize that not only were there messy lines and runes on the ground, but the stone wall not far behind the boy was also covered with different words.
Xiao Die'er ran over and sat down next to Li Xiuyuan and said, "Yes, Junior Brother Crow and I are studying Buddhist scriptures with our master. If you want to become a human, the best way is to study this Buddhist scripture."
Then Crow Crow said: "I said you are very lucky. This Buddhist scripture was carved by Li Xiuyuan himself. When you become a god, don't forget me and my senior sister."
The snake demon thought for a while, looked at the crow and asked, "Since you have learned Buddhist scriptures, why haven't you transformed yet?"
Crow shook his head and smiled: "I haven't had enough fun yet, don't worry..."
After hearing this, the snake demon suddenly felt angry. What I have been thinking about all day and night turned out to be: "I haven't had enough fun yet, don't be in a hurry..."
Xiaodie'er also laughed when she heard this: "This guy has been with my master for a long time. He said that once you become a human, you can't fly. You have to think clearly?"
Only then did the snake demon understand what the crow was thinking, and then he smiled faintly, looked at Li Xiuyuan and replied, "The little girl just wants to be a human being."
Slowly, Li Xiuyuan poured the spiritual tea into the pot and said quietly: "Well, drink three cups of spiritual tea first, and then I will teach you to recite it three times."
Xiao Die'er clapped her hands: "Thank you, Master. Xiao Die'er no longer has to study Buddhist scriptures with my junior brother in the future."
