Everyone thinks that he is a genius

Counting from going up to Mount Ji, to coming down from Mount Ji, it took Ming Hua a total of four days.

At dusk on the fourth day, Minghua stepped into the only inn at the foot of Jishan Mountain.

At that time, the sunset glow in the western sky seemed to be burning.

There are few people in the city, and many businesses on the street have already closed their doors.

You know, it wasn't like this four days ago. Minghua was a little puzzled, but he kept walking.

The shopkeeper in the inn was calculating the accounts, "crackling" calculations, and he didn't notice Ming Hua who was passing by the counter at all.

In the lobby, Xiao Er was standing by the only table of guests who were eating, happily talking about the gossip he had just inquired about: "Didn't I find several mummified corpses a while ago? Let me tell you, they are monsters." It’s still a female monster.”

Several guests laughed loudly: "How do you know? It's a lie."

"That's not true." Xiaoer was anxious, and repeatedly refuted, "It's Li Tiezhu who said it. When he was hunting in the mountains, he met that female monster who was sucking human blood. Li Tiezhu is so strong, he hummed haha——"

The little second-hand danced wildly, and finally made a gesture of closing his fist, saying: "Kill that female monster away."

"Hey, can Li Tiezhu see what the female monster looks like? Is Pan'er pretty?" The guest winked.

"It's not dark in winter, who knows..." Xiao Er returned angrily.

For the rest, Minghua was walking up the stairs and turning a corner, so he didn't hear it, and he just thought that Xiao Er was bragging, and didn't take it to heart.

If he guessed right, the Liangjiang brothers and sisters should be around here, and if there were monsters, the two of them should have already met——

Ming Hua paused in front of the door of the guest room he had booked earlier.

[There are two more people in the room——] The last word dragged on for a long time, and Su Yu said it meaningfully, [I guess, one of them must be Xuanyin, as for the other...]

'It is forsythia. 'Minghua added silently.

[...Intuition tells me that there is a good show to watch. ] Another gloating tone.

'...' It was rare for Minghua not to refute Su Yu, and his intuition told himself that things might be more complicated than he imagined.

After picking up his mood, Minghua pushed open the door, and saw Lianqiao Lihua crying to Xuanyin with rain, seeing him come in, Lianqiao knelt down with a "plop", and kowtowed to Minghua: "I beg the gods!" Save brother."

Ming Hua looked at Forsythia kneeling on the ground with complicated eyes.

It's rare that this time, Su Yu didn't gloat and sing a naysayer.

Minghua: "How do you know who I am?"

Lian Qiao buried her head lower: "...the man in black who follows Shangxian is different."

In the world of cultivating immortals, the only one who has a heart demon is Minghua Shangxian.

Su Yu: [Different?Pooh. ]

Minghua ignored Su Yu: "...Forget it, saving people is the most important thing."

Forsythia and Liang Jiang are disciples of casual cultivators, childhood sweethearts.

After Sanxiu passed away due to the exhaustion of his lifespan, the two went down the mountain and traveled around together, helping ordinary people with no cultivation to eliminate demons and exorcise ghosts along the way. , It is much better than the boring practice life in the mountains.

And all of this changed beyond recognition because of that little spider spirit.

After Liang Jiang rescued the little spider spirit, Lianqiao, at the request of her senior brother, used the teleportation array to transport her to a foothold not far from Jishan.

The foothold was on the outskirts of Jishan, where there were few people. As soon as Liang Jiang came out of the teleportation array, he took out the cloud boat from the storage bag, and walked in with Gui Xin in his arms.

Guixin is the name Liang Jiang gave the little spider Jing.

At that time, Forsythia's heart turned cold.

Yunzhou is the only refining tool left to them by their master. The clothes and pills of the two of them are all in the Yunzhou. Brother Liang Jiang said before that walking is the right way to travel, so the Yunzhou has been kept in storage In the bag, Yunzhou will only be taken out when there is a special request.

Yunzhou has long been regarded by Lianqiao as her and her senior's home, but now, Liang Jiang simply ignores Lianqiao and brings a demon into their home.

Gui Xin put on the clothes that her senior brother made for her.

Gui Xin ate the only life-saving elixir left by her master to her senior brother.

Osmanthus...

Lian Qiao tried to convince herself to regard Gui Xin as a child who didn't understand anything, just like her senior brother, but she couldn't convince herself with peace of mind when she saw the huge spider nest that Gui Xin made in the back cabin of Yunzhou.

With such a small body, it was able to wrap the back half of the cloud boat tightly with layers of spider silk. The hole was pitch black, making people look panicked.

After the spider nest was made, Gui Xin never left her mother Jiang Jiang during the day, but at night she turned her feet into eight spider legs and crawled into the black hole nimbly. She didn't hear anything at night, as if she was resting.

Lian Qiao thought so too, until later she left due to business, but saw a mummy on the mountain road.

Examining the mummy carefully, experience told Lian Qiao that the mummy was obviously made like this because it was sucked out of its flesh and blood by a monster.

At that time, Lianqiao was just puzzled, because she didn't feel the evil spirit in the vicinity at all.

Maybe... which little demon came here?

Two days later, Lian Qiao went back, but she didn't see her senior brother, only Yun Zhou was completely wrapped in spider silk, stuck to a huge spider web, hanging in mid-air, and standing on the spider web was Gui Xin.

Gui Xin is no longer a little girl, she has grown into a young girl, slim and tall, her human feet are gone, but she is still the eight legs of a spider, sucking the corpse in her hand.

Under the spider web, there are layers of mummified animals and humans.

Forsythia covered her mouth with her hands tremblingly, hiding her figure.

After listening to Lianqiao's narration, Minghua asked: "It's only a short period of two or three days, how could the spider spirit..."

"Generally, the young monster's infancy is related to spiritual power. That little demon has absorbed a lot of spiritual power from the mother's body, and then ate the life-saving medicine of the senior brother, so it naturally grows fast." Lian Qiao explained sadly, " Brother didn’t mention this question before, so I didn’t think about it.”

Su Yu came out with a "huh", sat next to Minghua, tilted his head, and said sarcastically, "Perhaps your senior brother didn't let you think about this question on purpose?"

Forsythia's face suddenly turned pale, and she held the teacup with her fingers hard.

Ming Hua frowned: "Su Yu!"

"I just let her see some things clearly," Su Yu shrugged and said, "Right, Xuanyin?"

Xuan Yin: "..." Damn, why are you teasing me?

The color of her lips turned pale all of a sudden, Lian Qiao tried to defend herself, "That's not the case...it must be that brother was bewitched by that goblin...yes, it must be like this...bewitched...it wasn't intentional... ..."

Forsythia's explanation was confusing and incoherent. She wanted to explain clearly to Minghua and others, and at the same time, she wanted to persuade herself to agree with this explanation.

Unfortunately, her subconscious mind refused to agree.

Obviously, she has fallen into a magic barrier.

Was the senior brother deceived, or did he do so willingly?

No matter what the answer is, Forsythia is somewhat unacceptable.

The answer is that for the former, she cannot forgive her negligence; for the latter, she will not be able to forgive her senior brother.

Brother, what on earth are you thinking?

Forsythia was confused.

Seeing that Lianqiao was about to collapse, Minghua glared at Su Yu.

Su Yu replied with a provocative smile, then disappeared suddenly, hiding in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Tell you guys to be troublesome.

Live it!

After Lianqiao finally calmed down, Ming Hua glanced out the window.

It was dark, and the sky was dotted with a few broken stars.

A cool breeze blew in through the window, taking away the stuffy heat in the house.

"Miss Forsythia, it's getting late, you might as well rest for one night before you go on your way."

"But……"

"The girl is too tired. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on and lead her to the destination; besides, it's not easy to catch that spider spirit under the cover of night. I think the girl knows this."

"..."

Forsythia could only nod.

At dawn, Lianqiao and her party arrived at the foothold that Lianqiao said.

It was very easy to deal with that little demon, Ming Hua killed the little demon named Gui Xin without any effort.

The little demon is actually very young, he can't even speak, and he was still ignorant before he died. It seems that he hasn't figured out what happened. He just foolishly repeated a name: "Liangjiang."

Ming Hua was stunned for a moment.

"What are you thinking?" Su Yu covered Ming Hua's hand holding Feng Shuang, and pulled the sword out of the corpse for him: "What's wrong?"

Ming Hua lowered his eyes and asked, "Am I wrong?"

Su Yu: "..."

As for Forsythia, she found Liang Jiang's body in the cloud boat.

Liang Jiang was sucked into a mummy, but strangely, the clothes he was wearing were intact, and his body was carefully wrapped with spider silk and placed in a corner of the cloud boat.

Lianqiao knew that she should be sad, but it was more anger than sadness.

When Minghua entered Yunzhou, he saw that Lianqiao was peeling off the spider silk from Liangjiang's body little by little. To Minghua's surprise, she didn't cry, her face was numb, and there was no expression on her face. She moved slowly , with a strange calmness, as if the corpse lying beside her was not the brother she was thinking of, but a stone.

"Female spiders usually eat males after mating." Su Yu stood aside and said suddenly.

Forsythia gave a meal.

Ming Hua suddenly understood why Liang Jiang's body was so complete.

That little demon likes ginger.

Pursing his lips, Minghua dragged Su Yu out of Yunzhou.

In the end, Forsythia burned everything here.

Liang Jiang's ashes were put into Lianqiao's arms, and after Lianqiao thanked her again, she walked away alone.

She also carried her brother's sword on her back.

Walking alone on the mountain road, there are continuous green hills in the distance, and the sun is shining brightly, but her back looks lonely and desolate, with a breath of death.

Holding the sword to the end of the world, but the sword master is no longer there, how can I... travel all over the end of the world?

"Is Liang Jiang willing?" Ming Hua asked suddenly.

Su Yu leaned on Minghua for a while, and finally understood what Minghua was asking: Was Liang Jiang willingly sucked by the little demon, or was he bewitched by the little demon, and finally let her suck it for no apparent reason.

"..."

Only Liang Jiang knew this, so Su Yu didn't answer.

Glancing at the still burning Yun Zhou, Su Yu suddenly asked without thinking, "Will that little monster hate his instinct?"

"Huh? How do you say it?"

"That little demon really fell in love with Liang Jiang, otherwise, she would not have kept Liang Jiang's body. But it was this sincerity that hurt Liang Jiang again." Su Yu said.

Minghua was silent.

"Now, do you really think anyone can resist their instincts?"

"..."

"Minghua, be more careful in the future." After Su Yu said this sentence inexplicably, he returned to the sea of ​​consciousness.
