"The Swallowing River." Xuan Min said: "Thousands of years ago, the boundless Swallowing Sea was nothing more than a small river."
"Is this considered small?" Lu Qingling scratched her head and stood on tiptoes by the river to take a look.
The water in the river was turbid and churning, making it impossible to see the depth of the river.
Pei Hongdu said: "The river is not deep, but it is very dangerous."
Gu Qingling: "How do you know?"
He raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side: "Look over there. That white thing."
"Is that a stone?"
"No. It's the skull of a giant beast. It was supposed to cross the river in its physical body, but its entire body was corroded by the river water. When it reached the other side, only a head was left." Pei Hongdu's tone was calm, but his eyes gradually deepened. p>
Every plant and tree here carries a fatal danger. He must muster ten thousand efforts to protect Gu Qingling.
"Then let's go around it? No way, this river is so long..." Gu Qingling thought for a moment, grabbed the stone on the ground, and threw it in.
Plop!
The stone fell into the river, and immediately after, a huge black shadow slowly appeared. After swallowing the stone, it lurked again.
Gu Qingling's back felt a little cold: "Then, is that a fish? There is such a big fish. Hey, how are we going to get there?"
Xuan Min looked at her tightly furrowed brows, his eyes moved slightly, he pinched the vine lazily and threw it in.
Gu Qingling hurriedly stopped her: "Hey! It's very dangerous in there - wow!"
Before she could finish her words, the moment the vine came into contact with the drinking water, it suddenly turned into a huge leaf and floated quietly on the rushing river.
The three of them stood on the leaves and soon reached the other side of the river.
Xuan Min moved his fingertips slightly, and the leaves turned into vines again, wetly hanging on Xuan Min's body, and then he threw them to Lu Qingling with great disgust.
Gu Qingling held the vines and glared angrily: "You, you cross the river and demolish the bridge, don't bully the remaining wood!"
Xuan Min rolled his eyes at her, turned around and walked towards the foot of Yaoshan Mountain.
Pei Hongdu took out his handkerchief and wiped the remaining wood from Yaoshan Mountain clean, and then followed with Gu Qingling.
The closer you get to Yaoshan Mountain, the more sinister the surrounding environment becomes. Fortunately, with Pei Hongdu and Xuan Min now, there is almost no need for Gu Qingling to take action.
Soon, they saw a woman at the foot of the mountain. She was wearing a sapphire blue coat with a thin dark purple shawl draped over her shoulders. She looked like a concubine and a fairy, dazzling with brilliance.
Seeing them, the woman seemed a little surprised. Her black eyes were full of smiles, and she stepped forward with lotus steps: "Where are you from?"
Pei Hongdu narrowed his eyes slightly, stood in front of Gu Qingling, and said in a deep voice: "Nature comes from the same place."
The woman asked again: "Where to go?"
Pei Hongdu said: "Go to your home place."
The woman pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Not sincere."
In an instant, the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and the strong wind carried the yellow sand and rushed towards them, almost blowing the three of them into the sky.
But the woman remained motionless, her dark purple robe fluttering in the strong wind. A slender red tongue protruded from her delicate cherry mouth, like a sharp arrow, piercing towards Pei Hongdu.
Zheng!
Pei Hongdu drew his sword and slashed, and fire burst out, but the tongue was not affected and tightly wrapped around his sword body.
"Heh..."
Pei Hongdu sneered coldly, flipped his wrist, and the snow-white sword light suddenly appeared, cutting the tongue into four pieces.
"Ah!" A shrill scream came from the woman's mouth. She lay on the ground, her charming face already ferocious: "I am the Fairy Qingya of Yaoshan Mountain, how dare you to offend like this, you are seeking death!"
Lu Tian was firmly stuck on the ground by Lu Qingling. She pulled the hilt of the sword hard, and her petite body was almost parallel to the ground.
Split Sky said in a deep voice: "No. There is indeed a touch of immortal energy surrounding this person!"
"She looks so bad, but she's not a fairy at all!"
The strong wind dimmed slightly, and Lu Qingling was finally able to step on the ground. She took this opportunity to draw her sword, and when the woman focused her attention on Pei Hongdu, she suddenly stepped forward to attack her and slashed her with the sword!
Suddenly, Xuan Min seemed to notice something and said sternly: "Little thing, get out of the way!"
But it's too late.
The woman's body was split open, and what was exposed was not flesh and blood, but a ball of white flowers in bud. Countless petals flew towards her, forming a force that covered the sky and the sun, tightly wrapping Lu Qingling!
Vaguely, she seemed to hear some sounds, but they soon fell silent.
Lu Qingling felt that she had fallen asleep, and it seemed that she had slept for a long time. When she opened her eyes, the daylight was just right, and a woman was sitting next to her, holding a crystal clear grape in her hand.
"Well, are you awake?" The woman was wearing a sapphire blue coat, with a dark purple shawl lazily draped over her shoulders. Her long dark hair was hanging down, and she looked at her with a half-smile.
Gu Qingling nodded: "Yeah. Are you eating grapes? I want to eat them too."
She reached out to take it, but was stopped by the woman.
"No. You go and catch the two rabbits outside first, and I'll make soup for you tonight."
Lu Qingling pursed her lips: "I don't want to eat rabbit."
The woman chuckled and touched her head: "What are you talking about? Go ahead."
Gu Qingling had no choice but to obediently hold the knife and walk forward. The two rabbits stood obediently under the tree, staring at her with round eyes, motionless.
But just when she was about to get close, the two rabbits suddenly moved away from each other. She stretched out her hand and threw it into the air, sighed helplessly, picked the smaller rabbit, and quickly chased after it. p>
But this rabbit was very disobedient. It kept running and running, its ears shaking from time to time, as if it was scared or...crying?
"Don't run, stop!" Lu Qingling stopped to take a breath and found that the rabbit had also stopped.
She rolled her eyes and suddenly had a plan in mind.
Lu Qingling launched an offensive against the rabbit again, and then she deliberately fell down and buried her head in her arms, as if she was extremely wronged, sobbing softly.
Sure enough, the sound of blades of grass being pushed aside came from all around, which must have been the rabbit quietly coming back again.
She took advantage of this opportunity, reached out suddenly, and successfully grabbed the rabbit's ears!
"Finally caught you——"
Before Lu Qingling finished speaking, everything around her suddenly distorted and changed.
The rabbit ears in her hand turned into the hilt of the sword, and the sword sank deeply into Pei Hongdu's chest.
"Pei...?" Lu Qingling's eyes suddenly shrank.
Mirror, Yaoshan, strange woman.
Everything rushed towards her in an instant, but nothing could stop Pei Hongdu's body stained red with blood.
She killed Pei Hongdu!
Tears welled up in Gu Qingling's eyes, and her hands kept shaking. But Pei Hongdu's cold fingers slowly stretched out towards her, and gently touched her face with his two cleanest fingers.
A faint smile appeared on his pale face, and Pei Hongdu said softly:
