After getting all the things, Baitao chased the stars and the moon, and ran non-stop for seven days.
The journey to Zhao Guo HD went quite smoothly, and we encountered neither robbers nor jackals, tigers or leopards.
Just riding on horseback, Baitao relied on the guidance of the map and actually reached a valley.
Although this valley is picturesque from a glance, with lush vegetation and the occasional roar of apes, it is a wonderful sight that makes people want to spit out ink.
However, the mountain road was really rugged and the weeds were as tall as a human being, seriously affecting her speed.
Baitao looked at the map carefully and compared it vertically and horizontally.
There is nothing wrong with going here. If you don't go here, you will need two extra days.
"do not care."
She thought to herself, immediately got off her horse, led the horse and walked forward cutting through the thorns.
After walking for a while, a strong wind blew over the valley, and the surrounding area suddenly fell into darkness.
Bai Tao looked up and saw a giant tree growing on the cliff.
It is more than ten feet tall, with a waist as thick as eight or nine people surrounding it. It is like a ladder connecting heaven and earth. It is dark and inky, and the branches stretch out like pairs of strange human hands, dancing wildly against the strong wind and demons.
What was just a fairyland on earth is now strange and terrifying.
Baitao looked away, gripped the dagger and continued walking forward.
"簌簌——"
I don't know what cave the wind was passing through, but it made a strange sound that sounded like a human but not human at all.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of bats flew over her head like a huge net, and disappeared in an instant.
Bai Tao smelled the scent of the same kind.
There is a demonic quality.
After peeling away the weeds, an inn that had been deserted for a long time suddenly appeared in front of it.
It seems that it has been abandoned for many years. The chun wood used to build it is in a state of decay and has been eaten away by cockroaches and weasels. The writing on the door plaque is difficult to read.
"Sir, should I stay in a hotel or stay in a hotel?"
A waiter emerged from the grass nearby. He was so thin that he looked like he only had a few skeletons to support him.
When he talks like this, the veins on his neck are undulating, as if there are black worms crawling inside.
Baitao said: "Is it okay to find trouble?"
The waiter in the shop made a "click" sound on his back. He rolled his dead eyes and looked at the horse she was holding, "It has been running for a long time. This horse's shoes should be changed. The customer should give it a tip."
Fortunately, the horse was controlled by Baitao's charm, otherwise it would have been so frightened that its hooves would fly into the air.
Baitao tugged on the reins, thought for a while, and said, "It would be great if you know how to change the horseshoe, Nuo, here you go."
The reins were handed over and the waiter took it with his rotten cotton-like palms. Baitao lowered his eyes and said, "Isn't this inn of yours very lively on weekdays? My hands are worn out to the bone."
"Ah, yes, yes."
The waiter still lowered his head and directed towards the inside of the inn, "Have a rest inside."
"Squeak——"
The door of the inn was opened, making an overwhelming sound, and it shook twice before falling over.
The splashed dust stirred up old, dark moisture, and when you inhaled the tip of your nose, you could feel that your nose was moldy from a distance.
Bai Tao covered her nose.
Inside is the inn lobby. There are more than a dozen mummified villagers in ragged clothes sitting in the lobby. They all look over with big green bean eyes.
There was a young and beautiful proprietress standing inside supporting a wooden cabinet.
Her face was extremely blurry, as if it had been polished by something, making it smooth. When she saw Bai Tao, she rolled her eyes twice and said, "Girl, come in and sit down."
"No, you are so hospitable, but I don't want to be your guest."
It was too dirty inside, so Baitao refused decisively.
Before the proprietress could say anything, the group of villagers stood up together. The corners of their clothes had probably not been separated from the stools for a long time, and they were all stuck together. When they stood up, a "tearing" sound could be heard, and they were torn into tattered rags.
They are also very dry, their mouths are closed tightly, and the sound comes from the abdomen, and the shape of their teeth can be seen, like the fangs of a bat: "Girl, come in and sit down!"
One person said: "If you want to sit down, just sit down. Why are you dawdling?"
Another person: "Aren't you just here to die? Blood Bat Valley is not that easy to enter."
"Just one came, and another came, and another came."
As they spoke, their hands continued to grow and grow, pulling up and growing like branches, and clamped towards the white peach.
This was the first time Baitao had encountered a bad demon in her hundred years as a demon. She stopped her desire to retreat and forced herself to calm down.
"Brush - brush -"
The danger was getting closer and closer, so Baitao rolled up to temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
Although the visitor is not kind, her three big tails are not vegetarian either.
Bai Tao used the force to leap into the air, flipped his wrist, waved the dagger in his hand, and with one stroke, cut off all the approaching hand-shaped tentacles.
The stumps were all over the floor and were still moving.
The landlady was stunned and stared straight at Baitao, "I didn't expect that now that the demon clan has declined, you can still have such a level of cultivation."
Baitao saw that her true form was a bat, and said sarcastically: "I didn't expect that the demon that occupies an entire valley would be so weak."
The bat spirit laughed once, and then laughed again, with some unspeakable complexity and interest, "That's fine, that's fine, then you can stay and be the fertilizer for me, the Blood Bat Valley!"
As she spoke, she threw her head back and laughed, making a harsh sound that scratched her eardrums.
What's terrifying is that the severed limbs of those men in black keep growing, growing, getting taller, and getting taller again!
They waved and swayed on the ground, reshaping and stirring, taking on more human forms.
"Kacha kacha kacha -" As if some force was surging, they all had the same human face, as if they were perfect replicas. The difference was that they had no clothes and were covered with rough tree bark.
The bat spirit Jie Jie said: "One life is two, two begets three, three begets all things, life after life, endless."
Baitao's heart skipped a beat.
Looking at these perverted things that she didn't know what they were, she wished she could pour out all the things her brother had poured into her head and go through them.
It's a pity that it's too late, she can't afford to slack off in the battle of life and death.
Showing his unprecedented state, Baitao's whole body tensed up bit by bit, like a drawn bow, ready to attack at any time, "I'm not afraid of you."
"Tsk, as expected of the Tushan Fox Clan, they are just different from our bloodline."
The rising voice of the bat spirit made people feel as if they were falling into an ice cave, "Let's do this, I will peel off your beauty skin later, and I will show some mercy."
"Brush - brush -"
The strange tree man grew again, and its arms and hair covered Bai Tao like a spider spinning silk, making it impossible for Bai Tao to escape.
The white peach gritted its teeth, the rabbit jumped up and down, facing the wind in the valley, and climbed up the mountain wall.
"Boom——"
The tree hands gathered into a ball, forming a huge fist, and smashed hard against the mountain wall.
Behind Baitao, it was just a hair's breadth, countless tiny cracks were filled in an instant, and a rock suddenly collapsed.
"Weren't you very arrogant just now? So what if my cultivation level has regressed? Let's see where you can escape to?"
The bat spirit stared at the fleeing Baitao with evil eyes, and said harshly, "Don't struggle, you will soon become my meal."
"Boom——"
The rock shattered again, and the dust raised covered people's sight.
And the tree hand was able to attack Baitao accurately. Baitao stretched his back to the extreme, stretched out his leg, touched the tree hand, and then rotated in a weird arc.
The branches and vines of the tree hand were not that sensitive after all, and they were knotted hard.
so close.
Bai Tao's neck felt cold and she got a moment of respite.
But now that she was in this situation, she was determined to get the upper hand, "Meal on the plate? You're just a bat that just wants to die. I don't want to eat you, so forget it. You still want to eat a fox. This is the Warring States Period, and that's not the case."
Your Spring and Autumn Period, do you still want to continue to dream about your Spring and Autumn Period?"
The bat spirit said with a sullen face: "You are still sharp-tongued even when you are about to die!"
"Then you're going to kill me?"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
The bat spirit was so irritated by her that he couldn't even untie the entangled tree hands and smacked at her with the fierce truth.
Baitao breathed heavily in her throat and flew toward her, "There's someone behind you!"
"What?"
The bat spirit turned sideways and looked back. Although he held back his hand and did not turn around completely, he still allowed Baitao to get a moment of free space.
It makes sense for Brother A to say that other monsters are stupid, so she threw her dagger at the bat spirit with all her strength.
Sensing the danger, the bat spirit covered his face with his hands and fell to the side, barely able to avoid it.
"Zheng——"
The dagger pierced into the floor, the cold light flashed, and it penetrated the wood three-thirds of the way.
The bat spirit breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she had escaped, but she did not expect that her distraction caused the group of tree men to be temporarily out of her control.
Baitao disappeared on the mountain wall in the blink of an eye. The bat spirit ran out in a hurry, looked up, but did not see a fox shadow of Baitao. Her eyes were splitting, "Where is the person!"
"Pfft."
Suddenly, a sword tip emerged from the bat spirit's chest, and the sword tip was spinning and twisting.
"Pfft, pfft."
The bat spirit lowered his head and looked at his chest, his flesh and blood were blurred and dripping with blood.
Her pupils lost focus and she fell to the ground. The group of tree men also disappeared into ashes along with her.
Lan Yuan struck.
The tip of the sword was still ticking after drinking the bat's blood, and there was a hint of evil in Baitao's eyebrows that he had never seen before.
Similarly, her heartbeat had never been so fast, and the feeling of hanging on the line was so thrilling, but she was also very content when she was in control of herself.
Presumably, brother saw her like this
You will be pleased.
At this moment, the wind in the valley was strong, and the withered yellow leaves were flying to the sky, as light as if they had no weight. Bai Tao felt that the loneliness was eroding her for no reason, leaving her with nowhere to escape.
But she was as cold and calm as a flat lake.
He inserted the dagger into its sheath, whistled to control the horse to run over, and took out the bandage.
In the past, she would have cried and rolled in Brother Zheng's arms, purring towards Brother Zheng.
But now...
Now she was just carefully dealing with the scars she had just scratched from climbing on the mountain wall.
"Clang-"
There was a crashing sound inside, which alerted Bai Taotu. She tightened the bandage several times: "Who is inside?"
Anyone else?
No, I didn’t hear breathing just now. Was it a demon?
Baitao drew out the dagger again, lowered the tip of the sword, and said coldly: "If you don't come out, don't blame my sword for having no eyes."
