Chapter 220 Do you call it a little monkey?
"Girl, go!"
The crackling flames awakened Wan Yuzhi, and after realizing that it was the two people she met during the day, Hongkui got up unexpectedly and stood in front of Zixuan. At this moment of stalemate, Zixuan has already summoned the power of Nuwa and disappeared in front of everyone.
"You are confused!" Hong Kui's drooping long hair rolled and burned like a flame, just like her mood at the moment, a big fire.
The purple mist dissipated, and Hong Kui couldn't do anything about it. She put away Houyi's bow and said angrily, "She threatens you with your demon heart, but you still protect her! Do you know that you put away your demon heart?" Give it to her, and you will die!"
Wan Yuzhi smiled miserably, turned to look at the man lying on the bed, with a trace of tenderness in his eyes, "I know."
"But only in that way, she will save my husband"
"Just because of a stinky man, you don't even want your life?"
The more Wan Yuzhi was like this, the more Hong Kui felt worthless. Seeing the woman in the red dress who hated iron and steel, Wan Yuzhi felt a bit of warmth in her originally bitter and sad heart.
Whether it was the ignorance of her after seeing her identity during the day, or the angrily attacking Zixuan just now, Wan Yuzhi could see that although Hongkui was angry, she was not hostile to her, and even had some serious concerns.
"Girl, maybe when you meet someone close to you who is in a desperate situation, you will understand my choice." Wan Yuzhi glanced at the two people standing outside the door, and said with a faint expression.
Zhou Ji suddenly remembered the scene in the original play where Solanum nigrum died for the sword for the second time for Sedum, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and turned his eyes to Hongkui.
As if aware of Zhou Ji's gaze, Hongkui raised her neck like a proud peacock, and said stiffly, "What does his life and death have to do with me?"
"Duplicity~" Zhou Ji frowned slightly, reached out and knocked on Hongkui's forehead, and said helplessly, "When Sedum encounters a dilemma, let's see what you do."
Hongkui covered her forehead and took a step back, glared at Zhou Ji, pouted and said, "What does this have to do with him?"
“.”
“.”
The two of them froze for a moment, feeling that something was wrong with the conversation just now?
Outside Anning Village, bamboo forest shoal.
Xu Changqing walked through the long path and got lost in the mountains. He suddenly saw a few lights in the depths of the bamboo forest. When he walked out of the bamboo forest, his eyes suddenly opened up.
I saw a two-story bamboo building on the shoal outside the forest. Inside the fence, there were a few empty tables and chairs. With his magic power, he didn't notice any traces of evil spirits, but this place is neither a bustling town , and there is no official road post next to it, which is a bit strange no matter how you look at it.
Walking into the tavern along the fence, a stone tablet with a big clock on it came into view. The stone tablet was engraved with the word "Fengyue". When seeing it, Xu Changqing suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
In a trance, the breeze blew, and the big clock swayed slightly. Obviously there was no sound, but Xu Changqing still heard the ringing of the bell echoing in his memory.
"I seem to have been here before."
Xu Changqing subconsciously raised his eyes to look at the bamboo building. A woman in purple gauze was looking at him from the window sill on the second floor. Her bright eyes were like ripples of autumn water.
Zixuan was also quite surprised by Xu Changqing's arrival. She had promised Taoist Master Qingwei that she would never see Changqing again in this life. She couldn't restrain her feelings after her love had become a demon, so after Xu Changqing went down the mountain, Then quietly followed behind the crowd, just wanting to look at him from a distance, thinking that he would be satisfied.
This is also the reason why she avoids Zhou Ji and does not want to conflict with Hongkui.
Now that they meet again, the feelings that have been suppressed for a long time overflow the embankment like a tsunami, breaking through the defenses of their hearts. Zixuan suddenly finds that silently watching can no longer satisfy her wishes. She wants more and is more selfish.
"Yeping." Zixuan murmured, all kinds of past memories emerged in her mind, and the memories of the two overlapped. Looking across the window on the second floor, I became a member of one of the tables of drinkers.
Youyou wakes up, everything is like a dream.
Rou Yi gently stroked along the forehead, the delicate and soft touch touched Xu Changqing's heart, some were crispy and itchy, some were intoxicating.
When he woke up, he found that he was lying on an unfamiliar bed, and sitting beside him was the 'snake demon' who was chased and killed by Mo Zunlou that day.
"It's you~?" Xu Changqing sat up, only to feel dizzy. He obviously didn't drink alcohol last night, but the feeling of being drunk at this time is exactly the same as the scene in his dream last night.
'Dream' Xu Changqing was slightly taken aback. He seemed to remember having a very familiar dream last night, but after waking up from the dream, he couldn't remember anything.
Zi Xuan leaned over and said pleasantly: "Ye Ping! Do you remember me?"
"Girl, please respect yourself." Xu Changqing hurriedly dodged back and explained, "You may have misidentified the person. Xu Changqing, a disciple in Xiashu Mountain, is not the person you are looking for."
"Yes. You are Changqing now, not Lin Yeping anymore." Zixuan's eyes darkened, and she understood Xu Changqing's reaction. The other party didn't remember her past life, but herself.
‘As long as you are you, what difference does it make if you are Lin Yeping or not? Even if I forget the past, I will continue my relationship with you. '
Zixuan had already experienced such a thing when she first met Lin Yeping. After a short period of loss, she quickly adjusted her mood, but at this time, Xu Changqing's face became worse and worse.
"Girl, what is this place? Why did the Demon Zunlou chase you down? That day my natal flying sword was damaged, did you heal my trauma? Why... I feel very familiar when I see you? Did we ever know each other? What happened last night? Why do I feel like I forgot something, but I can't remember it?"
After asking the last sentence, Xu Changqing spat out a mouthful of blood, endured the severe pain and looked up at Zixuan.
Seeing the blood color gradually disappearing on Xu Changqing's face, Zi Xuan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead in distress, and said anxiously, "Don't think about it if you can't figure it out. I'll tell you everything. I'll tell you everything."
Over there at the inn, Huaying temporarily helped Wan Yuzhi's husband regain some vitality, and turned back into the appearance of a potato.
This is the first time Hongkui sees Huaying. Speaking of which, she is still Huaying's elder. After all, when she followed Yun Tianhe, Han Lingsha and the others, she also had some dealings with courage.
Among Wan Yuzhi's repeated thanks, everyone exchanged names. From Zhou Ji, Jing Tian and the others knew about Wan Yuzhi's husband's situation in advance.
Tang Xue saw that she was putting away the potatoes, and said worriedly: "Huaying told me that with her current strength, she can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If she wants to completely cure Sister Wan's husband, she still has to think of other ways."
"Hey, don't you know everything? Is there any way I can help Sister Wan? You can't really watch her being deceived by that purple-clothed monster and handing over her demon heart to him?" Hong Kui stood in front of Zhou Ji, Looking down at him.
"It's not enough to deceive. The woman in purple clothes yesterday is actually a descendant of Nuwa from the previous generation. She controls the power of life and creation of Empress Nuwa, and she can indeed cure Mr. Gao." Zhou Ji put down the teapot in his hand and said with a smile : "However, there is more than one way to save people. If you can get the earth spirit bead, you can also use the power of the earth to detoxify the water poison in Mr. Gao's body."
"What? Do you still know her?" Hong Kui's pupils glowed red, burning like a flame, and she looked at Zhou Ji with a somewhat unfriendly look. "You guys know each other very well? When did you meet? During the six hundred years when you missed the appointment?"
"Scary~ so scary~~" Zhou Ji didn't like this kind of aggressive character, couldn't help but raised his fingers and jumped Hongkui's head, saw her covering her forehead with her hands and gnashing her teeth, curled her lips, and said helplessly: "The point is the earth spirit bead, okay?"
Wan Yuzhi's eyes lit up, and he said quickly: "I know where the Earth Spirit Orb is? It's just"
"Just what? Sister Wan, you should hurry up~" Xue Jian said urgently.
"It's just that it's too dangerous there. When I went up the mountain to collect pollen, I never dared to approach it." Wan Yuzhi said bitterly.
Since leaving Yuzhou, the journey has been uneventful. Sedum, who has a cheerful personality, is already tired of the daily routine. Hearing that there is danger there, Sedum jumped out immediately.
Shaking his shoulders, showing off the two swords behind him, he possed and said, "With my heroic and courageous hero, I am not afraid of any danger~"
Patted her chest, Sedum proudly said, "Don't worry, Miss Wan, I've helped you~!"
Wan Yuzhi thanked him repeatedly.
While speaking, a distraught figure came from the door, and was almost tripped when he passed the threshold.
Zhou Ji stretched out his hand to help Xu Changqing upright with a gentle wave of air, and couldn't help laughing and said, "I've already said that fellow Taoists are compatible, so there's no need to give me such a big gift as soon as we meet, right?"
Being stumbled like this, Xu Changqing became much more sober.
Thanks to Zhou Ji, Xu Changqing looked at Zhou Ji with a complicated expression, opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
Looking at Wan Yuzhi next to him and Gao Yong on the bed, Xu Changqing asked in surprise, "Are they...?"
"White tofu, you don't know, last night." Jing Tian and Tang Xue saw you talking to each other, and told the story of yesterday's events in a more eloquent way. They both slept until dawn, but they just said it. Just like being there in person.
When Zixuan asked Wan Yuzhi to exchange her husband's life with her demon heart, Xu Changqing's mind was buzzing, and the bits and pieces she told herself suddenly appeared in her mind.
"By the way, Bai Doufu, where did you go last night? You didn't return all night, could it be that you stayed in some gentle village?" Jing Tian said, suddenly remembered something, and raised his eyebrows.
Xu Changqing was originally in a state of confusion because of the "love in the past life" that Zi Xuan told him.
After finally suppressing these distracting thoughts, they were brought up again by Jing Tian, and the cracked soul felt faint pain again. Xu Changqing changed the subject with a pale face, and asked about the earth spirit bead.
"Although Miss Wan is a monster, she has never harmed anyone, and she has a deep relationship with her husband and wife." Jing Tian thought that Xu Changqing hated Wan Yuzhi's status as a monster and was unwilling to help, so he persuaded Xu Changqing with good words and finally persuaded Xu Changqing , After making an appointment to deal with the group of fox demons outside the village, he got up and went to Guteng Forest.
Since Wan Yuzhi has never had any contact with these fox demons, and has been avoiding them all the time, and does not want to associate with them, he does not know where the fox demon's cave is, but after investigation by Zhou Ji, Hong Kui, and Xu Changqing , and soon found this group of monsters who sucked the spirit of pedestrians and killed them repeatedly.
Looking at the fox demon's lair submerged in the sky thunder and red fire, Wan Yuzhi, who is also a demon clan, couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed.
After informing the people of Anning Village that the fox demon had been removed, everyone set off again, and within two days along the mountain road, they arrived at the dangerous ancient vine forest at the mouth of Wan Yuzhi.
Before entering the forest, everyone saw that the weeds outside the forest were as high as half a person, and there were no traces of people walking down. Walking deeper, they saw that unknown grasses were wrapped around the branches of every tree around. Some of the vines are even as thick as the trunk, so it is impossible to tell where is the tree and where is the vine.
Coming to such a gloomy and weird place, Sedum also put away his usual frivolity, and showed a serious and serious expression like Xu Changqing, but Zhou Ji felt inexplicably kind, walking into the depths of the vine forest was like going home The same, even from the surrounding vines, they can perceive the end and direction of their extension.
Through the vine forest, the more you go in, it becomes wider instead, as if the vine forest on the outside is just a natural barrier, but the inside of the vine forest is full of birds and flowers, and it is no longer wild outside.
Suddenly, a brown giant ape more than ten meters high jumped down from the tree, stirring up dust all over the sky.
Xu Changqing pinched his fingers, and just about to perform the Shushan spell, Zhou Ji pressed it down, "We are standing by, and this little monkey should be handed over to Sedum."
"Such a big monster, do you call it a little monkey?" Sedum swallowed, drew out the two swords behind him and made a gesture, and said dumbfounded, "Shooting it with this sword should be similar to a pedicure, right?"
Zhou Ji had black lines all over his hair, and he said helplessly: "You have the Suppressing Demon Sword in one hand and the Demon Sword in the other, you can knock it down just by swiping it."
"Then I'll give it a try." There were two masters watching. Although Jing Tian was a little nervous, he still mustered up the courage to fly and fight the giant ape.
As Zhou Ji said, whether it is the Suppressing Demon Sword or the Demon Sword, they are rare magical weapons in the world. Although the giant ape is huge in size, it did not dare to face Sedum's double swords. With ease, Sedum quickly adapted to the rhythm of the fight, and the giant ape in front of him was getting smaller and smaller, and his size seemed to shrink. Under the double weakening of the magic sword and the suppressing demon sword, he turned into a three-dimensional ape in a blink of an eye. A tall, thin and small monkey.
