Wu Nuxia looked at the little deer that was gradually disappearing in the forest. She was a little reluctant to leave it and smacked her mouth again. Except this morning, she had been eating it for several days, and tears almost flowed from the corners of her mouth.
However, Jianghu people have their own tastes, especially those from famous families. Even if the Taoist around her didn't say anything, she also knew that since Bielu showed the way for the two of them, she couldn't just ask the question.
It would be disgraceful to draw a knife at him right away. Not to mention that the Taoist people around him were respectful and extremely polite every time they asked questions. If they were a little smarter, they would know better than to act savage at this time.
"What did the deer say?" Wu Nuxia turned her head and looked in the direction where the deer was looking just now, which was already the top of the mountain. "What about the top of the mountain?"
"That's right." Song You nodded, "It's very scared."
"afraid of what?"
"You don't think that mountain monsters only eat people, do you?"
"So that's it..."
"Let's go."
Song You stepped forward and walked towards the top of the mountain. As he walked, he told her some things about the mountain monster:
"Mountain monsters, mountain spirits, mountain monsters, and mountain ghosts are often confused by people in the world. You can recite whichever one is easy to pronounce. Some are the flowers, plants, and animals in the mountains that have taken the form of enlightenment, and some are the spirits naturally cultivated in the mountains. All are good and bad, but listen.
According to the information the heroine has gathered, they are probably elves naturally raised in the mountains. They are as big as cows, but they are hard to find and catch."
"why?"
"Because this kind of mountain monster usually has the ability to change. It is generally not good at changing into humans, but it is good at changing into vegetation and rocks in the mountains. This is good news and bad news." Song Youyou said, "If the mountain monster sees a woman,
The hero took the long knife and walked straight up the mountain. He would definitely not come out easily. But if they turned into grass, trees and rocks in the mountains, then it would be like what the heroine said, even if the gods came, if you are not good at this, you will not be able to get out easily.
To find it, we have to search the mountain inch by inch."
"Then what do we do?"
"Be it wild beasts or spirits in the mountains, they are all afraid of loud noises and fire. You can scare them out."
"How to scare me? Howl? Burn the mountain?"
"What a coincidence. Yesterday when I went out to buy groceries, I happened to see someone selling firecrackers. Thinking about the last time I set off firecrackers, it was more than ten years ago..."
Song You felt a little nostalgic.
Then he put his hand into his bag and took out a few firecrackers.
"Awesome, Taoist Master..."
At this time, the two of them had slowly climbed up the mountain.
The sun is setting in the distance, and the sky is a fiery red.
Wu Nuxia held the knife in one hand and the handle in the other. Looking around, she saw deep vegetation and jagged rocks. She could only see squirrels climbing among the trees and birds jumping on the branches. There were no mountain monsters.
"Shh~~"
There was a sound of a fuse being set off.
Wu Nuxia turned around and saw the Taoist grabbing a lit firecracker and throwing it out.
Wu Nuxia immediately stared in that direction.
"Bang!"
There was a crash of thunder and a burst of fire.
There was no movement there.
"Shh~"
"Bang!"
Still no movement.
"Could it be that the mountain monster went down the mountain to harm people? Isn't it on the top of this mountain?" Wu Nuxia lowered her head and glanced, "You only brought five firecrackers. What should you do if you use them up?"
"I know a little bit about the art of lightning."
"..."
Throw the fourth firecracker.
"Bang..."
At this moment, a stubborn rock next to it that was larger than a water tank suddenly moved. In just a blink of an eye, it stretched out from curled up. It was really as big as a cow. Its body also changed rapidly.
The gray stone turned into a mountain monster with pale skin, walking upright, strong and ferocious in appearance.
It looks like a combination of multiple animals.
It has a body shape like a monkey, ox hooves and sheep horns, a mouth full of fangs, long arms like an ape, and talons like an eagle.
The mountain monster seemed to be frightened, turned around and ran away.
"Where to go!"
With a swipe sound, Wu Xia instantly pulled out her long sword and chased after him.
Song You stood on the top of the mountain and watched, and saw that although the mountain monster was large, it was running freely in the mountain, but Wu Nuxia was even more agile, extremely fast, and good at predicting. When the mountain monster was around,
After turning a corner, I felt there was no movement behind me and when I turned around to check, I saw a figure running straight towards its face.
The sword shines like snow, and the cold air is overwhelming.
The mountain monster evaded hastily, using its hands to block it.
"laugh……"
Blood spurted out.
All the arms were broken off.
"Ouch..."
The mountain monster roared, whether it was in pain or anger, and then it became fierce and bit forward.
Although people with strong martial arts skills in the world dare not say that they can reach the gods with their martial arts, it is still easy to kill a wild monster in the mountains.
As long as the knife can cut, it can kill.
Back then, in Yizhuang, Shu Yifan could chop evil objects into pieces with a long sword. Today, when the geese return to the top of the mountain, Wu Suowei's long sword can naturally kill wild monsters in the mountains.
As the sun sets, the sky becomes darker and darker.
After a while, the mountains became quiet.
There was a moment of thought.
A black figure walked out of the woods, holding a long knife in one hand and a strange head in the other, and walked up the hill.
Song You also came from the other side.
"Huh? Where have you been?"
"The weather is dry and there are a lot of dry grass. Let's go and see if the firecrackers have ignited the dry grass to avoid a mountain fire."
"Hey you are very particular!"
"It should."
"look!"
The heroine threw her head to the ground, seeming to find it very interesting, and said: "This mountain monster has been causing trouble here for a long time. So many people in the world and folk experts have not found it. I thought we
I have to stay here for a few days, but I didn't expect it to be so easy."
“Just know the ropes.”
"learned."
Wu Nuxia breathed a long sigh of relief. She seemed to be tired, but she said: "You deserve more credit this time. Please give me more money."
"An even split is best."
"You deserve more."
"So that we don't have to break up later."
"It makes sense."
"That's it."
"When are we going down?"
"I think the scenery on the top of the mountain is nice, and I want to stay here for one night to watch the sunrise tomorrow morning." Song You said to Wu Xia, "What is the heroine's plan?"
"I can't even see the road clearly, and it's impossible to go back tonight, but the wind at the top of the mountain is too strong." Wu Nuxia said, "Besides, your felt blanket is still on my horse's back. Is it possible that you don't use it? Just
Just sit on the top of the mountain all night and enjoy the wind?"
"It's not impossible."
"Then you sit on the top of the mountain. I can't worry about my horse. I want to go back to find it."
Wu Nuxia has lifted the head of the mountain monster again and sniffed: "This thing stinks so much, I won't stay here to disgust you. After dawn tomorrow morning, I will wait at the foot of the mountain for an hour. If it is an hour after dawn,
Before you came down from the mountain, I took this thing back to Changjing to receive the reward. It seems that for those who have encountered it but survived, the yamen can ask someone and they can pay on the spot."
"I took the money and invited the heroine to dinner."
"That feeling is so good..."
Wu Nuxia's back has gradually disappeared.
At this time, there was another movement in the grass, and the sky was already very dark. I saw a few colorful streaks coming out of the grass, but it was a calico cat with a rabbit in its mouth.
"Hmm..."
"We have found the mountain monster, and the heroine took it down the mountain. I plan to sit on the mountain all night and watch the sunrise tomorrow morning." Song You looked at her, "Sanhua Empress is really amazing."
"Eat rabbit..."
"There is no water here, so Sanhua Empress should eat it."
"Then what do you eat?"
"I'm not hungry."
Song You looked at Rabbit with regret on his face.
It's not just a matter of water. Water can be found nearby. In fact, I didn't bring any seasoning when I went out today, and the rabbit meat is really unpalatable without seasoning, so I can only live up to her good intentions.
Unexpectedly, as the night grew darker, Wu Suowei came back again, bringing her beloved horse with her.
It's just that no matter how good the Southwest Horse is at walking on mountain roads, it can't go up this mountain, so it has to wait in the pile of rocks below. Wu Nuxia brought Song You's felt blankets, dry food and drinking water up, and also took out the talismans originally attached to the horse's body.
After coming down and returning it to him, she went down again to find a sheltered place and slept with her horse.
…
Early the next morning, it was just dawn.
The Taoist had a blanket under him and a blanket wrapped around him, sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain. There was a lot of dew on his hair and eyebrows. The cat was huddled between his legs, sleeping deeply, which made his legs numb.
The Taoist slowly opened his eyes.
The sky was already a fiery red.
The Taoist frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
The clouds in the east were thick, and I thought I would not be able to see the sunrise, but unexpectedly, after waiting for a moment, the clouds on the horizon dispersed on their own. After a few breaths, the first ray of sunlight slanted out from behind the distant mountains. Then an orange-red streak
The line appeared on the top of the mountain, and the ray of morning light that originally shot towards the top of the head gradually downwards, spreading over the world and covering the top of the mountain.
It also shines on the Taoist's face.
I can feel a hint of warmth.
The Taoist's brows finally relaxed.
"Hmm~~"
A fluffy head emerged from the gap in the blanket in front of the Taoist. She looked at the red sun in the distance, then looked up at the Taoist's orange face and eyes reflecting the morning light, shook her head, and then
Stepping out of her special blanket tent, she shook her feet, yawned, and slouched.
The red sun is gradually rising, and it seems to be a little moist.
But soon it turned from red to white, rising higher and higher. When the sky and the earth were bright, all the colorful clouds had dispersed. This rare visual feast only lasted a short time.
Wu Xia didn't know when she arrived at the top of the mountain. After watching the sunrise, she didn't know what she felt in her heart, but she only said one sentence:
"How comfortable..."
Song You smiled, then turned to her and said:
"I think the scenery in this mountain is moving. I want to stay here for a few more days. I wonder if the heroine can..."
"I'm going back alone, right?"
"yes."
"It's not a big deal, I'll just leave the rest of the dry food and water to you, but right next to it is the headless corpse of the mountain monster. Don't you feel sick?"
"It doesn't matter."
"Should I keep that felt blanket for you?"
"I can't take it back, so please take it away."
"Isn't it cold at night?"
"Just find a sheltered place and light a bonfire."
"also."
Wu Nuxia only said what she should be concerned about and said no more. She just stood beside him, waiting for him to fold the felt blanket, take it and turn around to leave.
One person and one horse gradually disappeared into the forest.
Song You turned around and looked at the mountain——
Continuous green, occasional clusters of peach blossoms, and morning mist.
According to what Wu Nuxia said, there are often ghosts and monsters in this mountain that harm people. It must be a place where spiritual energy gathers. However, when I felt the aura of heaven and earth last night, I didn't realize there was anything special about it. Not to mention that it is hundreds of miles away from Pingzhou.
Compared with the less inhabited mountains and mountains, and even compared with the many famous mountains and rivers along the way, their aura is weaker.
I'm afraid there is another mystery.
