Chapter 196 Footprints(1/2)
Black mountain peaks.
After setting foot on that mountain peak, a strong smell has always been floating in the air, a bit choking, with the smell of sulfur. Gui Li and Jin Ping'er are both people with profound spiritual practice, so they can tolerate this kind of smell.
, but as they gradually went deeper into the mountain peak, the increasingly strong wind gradually made them frown.
It was a bone-chilling wind. I don’t know why, when it blew over my face, although the wind was not very strong, it was so miserable that it really chilled people from the bottom of my heart. In addition, I didn’t know where to look from the depths of the mountain in front of me.
The faint shrieking sounds came one after another, rising and falling, like the cries of apes at night, and the laughter of ferocious ghosts, which sounded horrifying to the ears.
Monkey Xiao Hui lay on Ghost Li's shoulder, finished eating the last wild fruit, threw the core away, opened its three eyes, and looked around, as if it was not affected by these visions at all.
Jin Ping'er frowned more and more, and suddenly said: "There seems to be something wrong."
Gui Li was startled, stopped and said, "What's wrong?"
Jin Ping'er hesitated for a moment and said: "The last time I followed here, there were no cries of ghosts, howls of wolves and gusts of wind all over the mountains and plains. It was only when I arrived at the Ancient Demon-Suppressing Cave that there seemed to be some. How come after some time,
Is this place like a ghost prison?"
Gui Li looked into the distance and said calmly: "Maybe this is the lair of the beast monster, and it is too violent, as it should be. He had just come back to life when you came over that day, and of course it is not as bad as it has been in recent days."
Jin Ping'er thought about it and could only explain it this way. That day at the top of Qingyun Mountain, the Beast God had a bloody battle with the Zhuxian Sword Array, and was severely damaged by the Zhuxian Ancient Sword. Everyone could see how powerful that sword was.
Big. But even under the Zhuxian Sword Formation, the Beast God can still escape and run away. His practice is enough to shock the world.
Jin Ping'er's eyes flashed, and she suddenly said: "You think, if we find the Beast God in the Demon-Suppressing Ancient Cave, even though he is injured, can the two of us really deal with him?"
Gui Li shook his head and said, "How do I know?"
Jin Ping'er looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Looking at you, I'm afraid you're not very sure! In that case, what are you still doing here with me?"
She looked at Gui Li and said with a faint smile: "Don't forget, there is Baguio in Huqi Mountain waiting for you to save her! If you die here, wouldn't you be very sorry for her?
"
Gui Li snorted, walked forward, and said: "Her father asked me to do this. I owe Baguio too much, so I always have to do something. But you," he smiled coldly,
Said: "If by chance you die here, you will probably die in peace, right?"
Jin Ping'er smiled coquettishly, and smiled at his back: "Oh! You are such a cool person. As long as we die together, not only in this beast's lair, but also in the pig pen and cattle pen, that's fine too.
."
Gui Li sneered in front, obviously not believing Jin Ping'er's words at all, let alone showing the slightest emotion, and just walked straight away. But the monkey on his shoulder turned around and faced Jin Ping'er,
He actually broke into a rare smile and seemed to be in a good mood.
Different from the several women Gui Li had dated before, Xiao Hui was not as affectionate with Jin Ping'er as he was with Xiao Bai and Xiao Huan that day. This was the first time in several days that he had smiled so happily.
Jin Ping'er was a little surprised, but it wasn't a bad thing at all. She was a little happy. She was smiling and was about to step forward to tease the monkey. Unexpectedly, the monkey smiled for a moment with its mouth open. Suddenly, it opened its mouth and spit out something black.
Huhu things came out at extremely fast speeds and flew straight towards where Jin Ping'er was standing.
Jin Ping'er was startled, but she was not an ordinary person after all, so she didn't panic. She swung her feet slightly and used force, and stepped aside forcibly to let the weird thing pass.
There was a low pop sound, and the thing fell to the ground. It didn't bounce up, but crashed directly into the ground. Jin Ping'er looked back and saw that it was a wild fruit core. I don't know when Xiao Hui had something in his mouth.
The remaining one, tut-tutting, tasted the taste, but now he used it to tease her.
Jin Ping'er was teased by a monkey. She felt slightly angry and her pretty face turned pale. She looked around and saw that the gray-haired monkey had turned around and sat on Gui Li's shoulder, facing Jin Ping'er.
, crossed his hands on his chest, swung his feet back and forth, looked at the sky with three eyes, his face was full of arrogance, and he had the legendary gangster spirit, even his long tail was dangling behind him.
Go and act like I'm just bullying you, I'm a gangster and who am I to be afraid of?
It was okay for Jin Ping'er not to look at it, but when he saw it, he became very angry. He took a few steps to catch up with Gui Li and said angrily: "Why are you such an uncultured monkey? You just spit out fruit cores at people, do you know?"
"
Gui Li slowly turned his head and looked at Jin Ping'er with a strange look on his face. He said after a while: "Are you scolding it?" He pointed at Xiao Hui.
Jin Ping'er nodded.
Xiao Hui immediately became angry and jumped up from Gui Li's shoulder. He screamed and screamed. His eyes were wide open. His hands were clenched into fists and he kept gesticulating. It looked like he was burning with anger and wanted to fight Jin Ping'er who complained.
A very impressive scene.
Jin Ping'er didn't expect that this gray-haired monkey could actually understand human nature to such an extent. He was startled for a moment, took a step back, then ignored it and said loudly to the ghost: "I was scolding it, but this beast is also
It’s really disgusting. If you raise it, you must teach it well..."
"You!" Suddenly, Gui Li spoke loudly and shouted at Xiao Hui, while also interrupting Jin Ping'er's words.
Xiao Hui was startled and paused. Jin Ping'er was also startled and looked at Gui Li.
I saw Gui Li frowning, with a serious look on his face, and shouted to Xiao Hui: "I told you a long time ago that you need to study more and know the books to be reasonable, but you just didn't listen. The book "Gods and Demons" I taught you last time
"Zhiyi", why don't you learn it? Come back and copy 300 chapters of it for me and come see me again!"
Xiao Hui's three eyes widened and he blinked. He touched his head with his hand, scratched it again, and touched it again. He was obviously in a daze.
But Jin Ping'er wasn't much better on the other side. After being surprised, he couldn't help but sneered: "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if this monkey is knowledgeable about human nature, I have never heard of him being able to read and write!"
Gui Li turned his head and glanced at her, said "Oh", and seemed to have woken up. He said calmly: "In this case, even if you say so, it's not my fault that this monkey is uneducated. All things are born, but monkeys
If you can’t study, what can you do, what can you do?”
He looked at Jin Ping'er, sighed without sincerity, and without saying anything, turned back and walked forward.
Jin Ping'er was so angry that her face turned pale.
The monkey in front, Xiao Hui, fell from Gui Li's shoulder with a plop and fell to the ground. However, it did not appear to be in any pain. Instead, it screamed loudly, danced, laughed wildly, sometimes held its belly, sometimes beat the ground, and even had its limbs in the air.
The tail is waving, and the smile is as wild as you want.
The more Jin Ping'er looked at it, the angrier he became, and when he was about to explode, Xiao Hui suddenly jumped up, screamed "Zhi Zhi Zhi Zhi" at Jin Ping'er, made a big face, then got down on all fours, and swished back.
He jumped onto Gui Li's shoulder a few times, and then he lay down again, where he looked back at Jin Ping'er triumphantly, with another grimace.
Jin Ping'er became more and more angry, and even her body seemed to be trembling. After biting her teeth, she raised her hand to swing forward. Under the warm sunshine, a lavender light glowed on the edge of her palm, which was extremely strange.
.
But when the palm was raised halfway, it stopped in mid-air. Under the figure of the man in front of him, a faint cyan light seemed to emit from his hand.
Jin Ping'er's pupils contracted.
After a while, she suddenly paused, then put down her hands, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. After her chest rose and fell a few times, her face returned to its usual look. And the green glow on Gui Li's hand in front of her also slowly disappeared. As for
His figure has also slowly walked away amidst the harsh and weird laughter of the gray-haired three-eyed monkey.
Jin Ping'er calmed down, she was still a little angry in her heart, but at the same time, for some reason, her face was a little warm. She has always confounded all living beings and played with people's hearts. How did she know that today she was betrayed by a monkey?
Such a joke...
She snorted, put these things aside, and was about to move forward. Suddenly she frowned, as if she remembered something again, turned around and walked back slowly. Not long after, she had reached the place where Xiao Hui had just provoked him to vomit.
Where the core fell to the ground.
The core is an ordinary wild fruit core in the mountains here. There is nothing strange about it. However, the core at this time has actually sunk into the ground, leaving only a bit of the hard shell exposed. And this black and strange
On the mountain peak, unlike other parts of Shiwanda Mountain, there is soft soil and hard rocks everywhere.
Xiao Hui's spitting force actually drove the core into the hard stone.
Jin Ping'er frowned slowly, stood up slowly, and looked in the direction where Gui Li's figure disappeared. The dark wind blowing from that direction seemed to still contain the harsh and strange laughter of the monkey Xiao Hui.
In a low voice, as if she was whispering to herself: "How come even this monkey has such a level of practice and can advance so quickly? Who is this person..."
The vast black forest has welcomed a new visitor. But this time, the number of guests is much larger than before. A team of more than ten people walked through the jungle, standing among the giant trees with lush foliage.
Walking through thorns and vines.
However, this section of the journey went surprisingly smoothly, except for the unexpected attack by wild beasts.
The people walking at the front of the team were all unusual people. Lu Xueqi frowned slightly and said nothing, but Zeng Shushu couldn't help but said to Li Xun: "Senior Brother Li, there seems to be something wrong here!"
Li Xun stopped, glanced around, then looked at Zeng Shushu, pondered for a moment, then turned around and said loudly to the disciples in Fenxiang Valley: "Everyone, take a rest here for a while, and we will continue on our way later."
Everyone agreed enthusiastically, obviously walking such a long distance was not an easy task for anyone.
After settling the others, Li Xun and Zeng Shushu walked to a place slightly ahead and approached Lu Xueqi at the same time. Lu Xueqi frowned but took a step back.
Li Xun's face darkened. Zeng Shushu was so smart that he immediately interrupted and said, "Senior Brother Li, have you noticed it too?"
Li Xun nodded, and his eyes fell to the feet where the three of them were standing. Among the dense thorn bushes, although it was blurry, there were faint marks of someone stepping on them after the thorns were broken.
"Someone walked through this forest before us, and it must not have been a long time ago." He said with certainty, and at the same time, there was a hint of worry on his face.
Zeng Shushu pondered: "Could he be your fellow disciple, Senior Brother Li..."
Li Xun shook his head and said: "It's impossible. Our team is the only one in Fenxiang Valley who has gone deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Most of the young elites in the valley are here, and no one else will come in."
Zeng Shushu frowned and said: "That's strange. According to what Master Yun Gu said that day, this news should not have been leaked! Could it be that other sects also knew the news and entered the Shiwan Mountain?"
Li Xun hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I don't think so. First of all, this matter is indeed kept secret. Only our two factions know about it." He coughed lightly, lowered his voice and said: "The beast god is
He is the chief culprit of the catastrophe. If others add insult to injury and take advantage, the bloody battle between our two factions at the top of Qingyun Mountain would be..."
Zeng Shushu stretched out his hand, with a smile on his face, patted Li Xun on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What Senior Brother Li said is exactly what I meant. It really is what a hero thinks! Hehe, hehehe..."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but suddenly a cold snort came from next to them, which came from Lu Xueqi's mouth. Both of them were startled and looked away.
Zeng Shushu asked in a low voice: "Sister Lu, what's wrong with you? Did we say the wrong thing?"
To be continued...
