Volume 1: Looking Northwest, Shooting the Sirius Chapter 47: The Second Peach Card
"...You can hand them over to the Dahua government, and I won't pursue the matter."
Chaitino's voice was still calm, but his fists were clenched white. Today he truly realized what it means to be powerless.
"Are you kidding?"
The old man in black asked sarcastically, even those steppe Tatars had strange expressions on their faces. Is this mighty and invincible eagle shooter too indecisive?
"Yeah, I'm joking."
Chai Tiannuo raised his head and closed his eyes. After three breaths, he lowered his head and opened his eyes. His eyes contained boundless murderous intent!
"If you leave a child behind, you will not be killed. If you injure him, he will be killed if he climbs into the blue and falls into the underworld."
The smile on the old man's face faded, and the murderous aura loomed in front of him. Everyone could see that Chaitino was on the verge of explosion.
"Sir, why did you hurt me?"
Peach Blossom Fairy still said the same words. Chai Tiannuo looked back and found that her eyes were extremely pure, and she just wanted to know why.
"I can see that Young Master likes me. If that's the case, why did you hurt me?"
Her face was still so beautiful. Chai Tiannuo shook his head gently:
"Because, I am human."
After saying this, many steppe Tatars lowered their heads. Those who were shorter than a wheel would not be killed. Even the violent Shilong Chanyu would not kill weak children.
This time, many children were killed in the name of the great shaman. When I returned, I didn't know what kind of punishment was waiting for me.
"You are not a human being, you are an alien demon!"
"So, why did you hurt me?"
Chai Tiannuo looked at the Peach Blossom Fairy in surprise. She was indeed a monster, and she could see her identity at a glance.
"Extraterrestrial Demon?!"
The grassland Tatars all looked at Chai Tiannuo, with panic in their eyes. According to shamanic teachings, Yule Tian's biggest enemy is the extraterrestrial demon!
"Because I, the extraterrestrial devil, have a human heart!"
Chai Tiannuo patted his heart gently, Peach Blossom Fairy frowned and shook his head gently:
"I don't understand. If I absorb these innate spirits, I will be able to transform them into reality."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground shook violently, and countless roots emerged from the ground, stabbing everyone like spears.
Poof, penetrating sounds and human wails came one after another, and the steppe Tatar and the child in his hand were pierced together.
"Damn it!"
Chai Tiannuo roared, his eight-fold dragon and snake energy was running wildly, his eyes suddenly turned blood red, he raised his body horizontally and diagonally, and rushed towards the Peach Blossom Fairy with a low body.
There are too many roots and stems to cut down, so if you want to stop them, you must kill the main body.
Close up, a four-foot-wide sword slashed at Fairy Peach Blossom's head!
"Bang!"
A thick peach branch swept across his waist, and Chai Tiannuo was knocked out from a distance.
Turning over and pushing hard on the ground with both feet, Chai Tiannuo returned instantly like a cannonball, and the blade pierced hard from the heart.
"Pfft~!"
There was a muffled sound, Peach Blossom Fairy's face was filled with astonishment, and her voice was trembling as she said:
"I never wanted to hurt you."
Chaitino's cheeks trembled, he clenched his teeth and squeezed out two words from between his teeth:
"Know."
If you want to hurt yourself, what you just hit was not a peach branch, but a sharp root.
"Actually, I liked you a little bit the first time I saw you."
The Peach Blossom Fairy stretched out her hand to touch Chai Tiannuo's face, and there was a flash of light in her eyes:
"If it is as the World Honored One said, those of us with spiritual roots in heaven and earth are most afraid of meeting a good man, because they are as gentle as iron."
As soon as he finished speaking, the roots that shot up into the sky turned into fly ash and fell, and everyone who had been pierced fell to the ground one after another.
The Peach Blossom Fairy fell into Chai Tiannuo's arms, with dense cracks appearing on her face.
He took out the fruit and chewed it into pieces. Chaitino kissed the cracked red lips. The pulp instantly turned into clear water and entered the Peach Blossom Fairy's body. The dense cracks gradually healed.
"Why did you deliberately miss it by two points when you entered the knife?"
"With your spiritual awareness, it is impossible not to see her vital points."
The old man in black came to Chai Tiannuo with his hands behind his back and asked curiously.
"I like her and she also likes me. Why should I kill her?"
Chai Tiannuo caressed Fairy Peach Blossom's hair like clouds on her temples, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
"In that case, why did you hurt her?"
"The attack is so ruthless, even the slightest mistake will result in death!"
The old man frowned, and Chaitino smiled:
"Because I want to save someone. How can I save someone without hurting her?"
"...Your thoughts are indeed somewhat contradictory."
The old man in black shook his head helplessly, not understanding what Chaitino was thinking.
"Human beings are a collection of contradictions. Faced with a dilemma, I can only try my best to have both sides and pray for the best outcome."
After saying that, Chaitino turned around and looked around. Everything was still, like a painting, except for the two of them.
"Old man, what kind of existence are you, and what intentions do you have towards someone?"
Chai Tiannuo looked at the old man in black. After experiencing the giant turtle incident, he had great doubts about the existence of the village.
"I am a piece of paper. I don't have any intentions for you. I just record your actions truthfully."
After saying that, the old man waved his hand, and the ninety-nine children turned into black water dripping down, and soon gathered into a big ink ball.
The ink ball split open, and a cute pink child wearing a big red bellyband walked out of it.
"Go to your mother quickly, otherwise she will be angry."
"Um!"
The child skipped away. Chaitino looked at the scene in front of him with dumbfounded eyes. After a long time, he realized that all the children were transformed into one child.
"Old man, those prairie people were also transformed by your means?"
Chaitino pointed at the group of people who looked like a photo. He had a deep memory of the shaman who was missing half of his arm. He was shot to pieces by his own arrow.
"Of course not, they are outsiders just like you."
"What's wrong with them?"
"Just say something and they will turn into dust in an instant."
The old man in black smiled and Chai Tiannuo shook his head:
"They are destined to enter the illusion together. If possible, let them go."
"If we meet again, life or death will be decided by fate!"
The old man in black's eyes brightened slightly and he nodded gently:
"good."
With a wave of his hand, everyone on the grassland disappeared instantly. Chai Tiannuo's heart trembled. It was simply a magical trick!
"I'll give you something nice."
The old man in black grabbed the void, and a square wooden box appeared in his hand.
"This is the sacred object among the people on the grassland. I saw it fall from the sky with my own eyes, break the barrier and fall into the peach blossom fairyland."
Chaitino's heart beat wildly. This was five thousand taels of silver, and he got it just like that?!
Swallowing the saliva in his mouth, Chai Tiannuo carefully opened the box to see what kind of treasure it was, which was worth five thousand taels of silver.
"Another half ingot?"
Chai Tiannuo shouted when he saw what was inside. It looked very similar to the half piece he handed to the mountain chief. If he looked carefully at the fracture, it was definitely a broken piece!
"Do you know why the Peach Blossom Fairy wants to absorb the essence and blood of children?"
"Why?"
Chai Tiannuo asked doubtfully, and the old man in black sighed:
"The spiritual energy of the great world has dissipated. If we want to maintain vitality and make the illusion come true, we can only extract spiritual energy from human children."
"After all, man is the leader of all spirits, and a child contains the purest true spirit of heaven and earth."
"Peach Blossom Fairy was severely damaged this time. Even if you use fruit to save her, she won't be able to maintain her human body. She can only transform into her original form and slowly cultivate. You must be mentally prepared."
