Overshadowing the sun is always a demon

The tail whip of the strange fish was ribbed, sharp like a knife up and down, and the left and right were just bone handles, which was considered to be a life-threatening thing for Uncle Wang. It happened to be hit by the side.

After Chengquan bandaged Old Uncle Wang and put him in the tent, he turned around and asked Fadu, "What happened to you?"

"Meet a dead man whose head was split in half, and then a strange fish the size of a truck ran out of the puddle and chased me..."

Cheng Quan frowned: "Are there crocodiles in the desert?"

"It's not a crocodile, and I can't tell what it is... The skin is black like a stone, and it looks like a catfish. It can jump around on land..."

Cheng Quan kept silent, but from his expression, he obviously felt that Fa Du was dizzy from the sun on the desert.

Fadu was eager to prove his innocence: "Chengquan, you have to trust me, otherwise, where did the blood come from?"

"Okay, what about the fish?"

"It hit me with the sword and jumped back into the water."

"Taken a sword?" Cheng Quan was shocked, "You didn't kill the herdsman's yak, did you?"

Fadu was so anxious that he almost vomited blood: "What I said is true, why don't you believe it?"

"We are engaged in science. Not only have I never seen the creature you mentioned, I have never even heard of it. If you let me see *, maybe I can still believe it. You said it ran away. This..." Cheng Quan shook his head, "I said before that the desert environment is special, and it is easy to see all kinds of illusions. Now that the sun is setting and the light is dim, it is not surprising that you regard the yak resting in the pond as a monster..."

"That's a strange fish, not a yak." Fadu interrupted him stubbornly.

"Okay, okay, just treat it as a strange fish." As usual, Chengquan had an unhurried scholarly attitude, "Tell me, how big is that pond?"

"It's about ten meters in diameter."

"How deep?"

"Just... submerged the grass roots." Fadu actually couldn't understand how such a huge monster could be hidden in such a shallow puddle, and he said after a short pause, "Old Uncle Wang said that the strange fish's actions Like a mudskipper, maybe it jumped from somewhere else?"

Chengquan smiled: "Aren't you making too much sense?"

Fadu also gave up arguing with him, and turned to look at Xiaobai: "You will believe me."

Xiao Bai shook his head slowly but firmly.

Fadu suppressed his unhappiness, stepped out of the tent and walked towards the distance.

Xiaobai came out and quickly grabbed his arm: "Where do you want to go with your blood? Are you afraid of attracting other monsters?"

Fa Du frowned, the boss was not happy: "Why don't you even believe me?"

Xiaobai lowered his voice: "What Chengquan said is reasonable. There shouldn't be such a big fish monster in such a shallow puddle, let alone in the desert."

"But you should understand that I'm absolutely not lying..."

"I know you're not lying, but that's what makes this strange. I've sensed my surroundings beforehand, and I haven't found any spirits and monsters that can harm you, so I let you act alone. Soul seal, if you are in danger, I will know, but I didn't notice it just now."

Fa Du was confused: "What do you mean?"

"That strange fish is not like an ordinary monster, but rather like a summoned envoy."

"What is an angel?"

"Things from Huasheng Temple." Xiaobai's face was very serious, "Do you still remember that in Yi Guoshi's will, it was written that the Blood Refining Sect sucked the blood of demons in order to assimilate with demons, and took their demon power as their own?" Use. After long-term practice, his blood is different from ordinary people. It glows in the dark, and its color is like a firefly. After being possessed by a demon, the flow of Qi and blood is accelerated, the body recovers quickly, and it can prolong life. The power of protection can drive evil spirits for their own use. The evil spirits being driven are angels. Angels exist to protect rather than kill, and most of them have no evil spirits on them, so I can't perceive them."

Fadu's face was dark: "You mean, I drove the evil spirits to kill myself?"

"Cultivation of the Blood Sect is the top priority, and self-cultivation is the bottom. It is the weakest among the four sects. Few disciples of Huasheng Temple choose this sect, but it is still unknown how many disciples there are."

"So the other disciples of the Blood Refining Sect want to kill me?"

"There is a possibility. Although the Blood Refining Sect is weaker than other clans, it is still a branch of the Huasheng Temple. Maybe they don't want to lose their blood to outsiders."

Fadu nodded, then questioned again: "Wait, what does it mean to be the weakest among the four sects?"

Xiaobai replied: "Literally."

Fadu growled unwillingly: "Impossible! The Blood Refining Sect is obviously the most aloof and clean-spirited among the four schools, and the practitioners can prolong their lives. Why is it the weakest?"

Xiaobai replied indifferently: "Otherwise, why would I go to all the troubles to find you?"

"..." Fadu swallowed speechlessly, "I can't play happily anymore, this is all friends, goodbye."

Xiaobai suddenly changed his usual half-literate colloquial language, replaced it with ancient prose, and replied him decently: "Why do you have to be so decisive, we have never been friends, so why talk about the end of friendship?"

Fa Du burst into tears immediately.

Isn't this the ancient version of "Don't get close to me, we don't know each other well"?

Xiaobai thought for a moment: "It's just my guess at the moment, and I can't know for sure. If it is really an envoy that I can't detect is planning to kill you, you must be extremely careful and don't leave my side easily."

"I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't tell." Fadu still kept the habit of scratching his head when he was bald.

"Don't worry, no matter who wants to kill you, it should appear again soon."

Fa Du was puzzled: "Why?"

"Because you have already tasted the taste of demon blood." Xiaobai smiled slightly, "The blood refining sect absorbs demon blood in order to assimilate with it, and the demon power accumulated in the blood for so many years is already amazing. There is a treasure house hidden in you, but you just found it." It's nothing more than the key to unlock it. Once you taste the demon blood again, the accumulated demon power will slowly recover until it boils to the sky. Didn't you realize that at the moment you killed, your heart was actually extremely happy? "

"No." Fadu shook his head, "The bloodline of the Blood Refining Sect shouldn't be like this."

"Shouldn't it be like this?" Xiaobai actually laughed softly, "I don't think you know that the pool under the Town Demon Tower was originally just for me to rest, but your master Wuzhi turned it into a pool for me to rest. It became a pool of blood. For so many years, he has been sucking my blood for his own cultivation."

Fadu was stunned, and shouted hoarsely: "No! Impossible!"

"Why is it impossible, just because he is kind, kind-eyed, highly respected, and caring for you?" Xiaobai said lightly, "Maybe he is very good to you, but monsters are always different to Huasheng Temple. Whether it’s a servant for them to use, or it’s made into a magic weapon by gouging out their hearts and bones, they are all just tools in the end.”

Fadu asked: "Then why haven't you mentioned it for so long?"

"What can I say?" Xiaobai was still smiling, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, "There is a lightning rod on the top of the temple, and whenever there is a thunderstorm, lightning will strike from the top of the temple. After being struck by lightning, his body was naturally scorched black and his skin was torn apart. He couldn't move for several days, so he came down to get blood at that time. Fortunately, he just broke his skin to get some blood, and the wound will heal soon. skin, even the scars will be gone.”

Fadu grabbed Xiaobai's arm, still feeling unbelievable: "Being struck by lightning, don't you feel pain?"

Xiaobai didn't care about it: "Pain is nothing, compared to those in the Bone Erosion Sect who were made into magic weapons, how lucky I am."

Fadu hesitated for a while before speaking: "Xiaobai...I'm sorry..."

"I'm sorry? What are you sorry for me?" Xiaobai raised his eyebrows.

"I'm speaking for my master..."

"Okay, you have never entered the mountain gate but you have been following the rules of the bald donkey, eating fast and reciting Buddha. It's bad enough." Xiaobai replied, "Since ancient times, the law of the jungle has been the law of the jungle. Trees and vines strangled trees, tigers and leopards devoured cattle and sheep. They are all necessary for survival, Huasheng Temple is not a kind person, but they do it from the heart, I don’t think there is anything hateful about it.”

Fadu finally understands why Xiaobai hates Yu Tian so much but not his master. The Blood Refining Sect always seeks demon blood to cultivate themselves. If it is not Xiaobai, it will be other monsters.Yi Guoshi trapped Xiaobai under the Demon Town Tower, but prepared a pool for him to spend his days, which didn't seem too bad.

"Don't make a sad face, do what you have to do. It's extremely cold in the desert at night, so lighting a fire is the top priority. Chengquan has already gone to find firewood, so you can cook the self-heating rice. I'm already hungry." When it comes to food, Xiaobai is very sincere and talkative.

The meal was over hastily. Uncle Wang never woke up, and Cheng Quan took care of him in the tent over there.The night wind blew the campfire crackling and detonating, casting the shadow of the surrounding shallow grass outside the tent, like monsters with teeth and claws.

In the first half of the night, Fadu slept very restlessly. He felt the bone-chilling cold. He saw the rain of blood pouring all over the sky. After that, there were fires soaring into the sky, screams and wailing sounds. He saw blood stained on his lips. The blood lotus blossomed into a vast black nebula, slowly turning in the palm of his hand.When he woke up with a start, he saw that he was holding a ball of darkness in his hand, and he trembled in shock.

"what are you doing?"

Xiaobai's sleepy murmur came from next to his ear, Fadu realized that the temperature is so low now, Xiaobai will definitely keep close to him to keep warm, so he twisted his body slightly and lay down again: "It's okay, I had a dream."

Xiaobai moved closer to him in the way he was lying down, and still said vaguely: "With me here, even an envoy of God can't get close to you, go to sleep."

However, Fadu could no longer fall asleep, and just stared at the top of the tent in a daze.

After a long time, Fadu suddenly asked in a mosquito-like voice: "Xiaobai, don't you worry that one day I will be like my master, Yi Guoshi, and other people in Huasheng Temple?"

"You will be like them sooner or later." Xiaobai's answer was still so indifferent, "Now I need you to be strong, but if one day you are against me, I will definitely kill you first."
