[Onmyoji] Deep Sea Girl

It was dusk when Qiong Lang led the troops all the way to the edge of the Nanlu forest, and the monsters of Nazhi Mountain had already retreated to the barrier on the coast.

At the foot of the mountain is an open plain. The half-melted snow on the trees and grass leaves drips into the endless stream. The stream meanders down from a distance to meet the river, and then rushes into the sea.

Some paddy fields have just been reclaimed in the distance of the stationed camp, which makes the place look a bit messy, but there are already a few touches of greenery emerging from the withered brown forest, a little bit of spring.

Considering the new and old enmity between the earth spider and the Yijin Zhentian clan, Qiong Lang did not order them to act together, but chose a dozen or so wolf monsters with agility and a keen sense of smell from the camped monsters to enter the forest together.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Qiong Lang and his group stepped into the forest with a solemn face holding a lantern lit by demon fire. The big tengu had extraordinary night vision ability, and walked ahead as usual to open the way, protecting the people behind him. people.

Qiong Lang followed behind him with light footsteps, crackling the dead branches and leaves on the ground, which was particularly harsh in the dark forest at dusk.

"Master Huang, what's the matter, can you foresee where the pearl will be?" The mussel spirit followed in the team worriedly, her tone was full of urgency. Unable to sense the presence of the other party.

Huang held the gou jade pendant that he usually used for divination, concentrating on it without saying a word, the water-blue gou jade emitted flickering blue light from time to time.

They have gone deep into the forest for a long distance, far beyond the camp where monsters such as white wolves encountered earth spiders, but the clam spirit still failed to sense the existence of pearls within this range, which shows that pearls are still quite a distance away from them .

Although both Qiong Lang and Da Tengu remained calm and did not say anything, Huang knew that the current situation was getting serious.

Even so, he still calmed down and comforted the clam spirit with a warm voice.

A group of people stopped at the edge of the previous station. At this moment, the simple houses and tents on the edge of the station were destroyed in a mess, as if swept by a tsunami, and destroyed arrows were still scattered on the ground.

"Is this the place where the earth spider launched a sneak attack at noon today?" Qiong Lang said, using the demon fire to carefully examine the spider threads left on the wooden ruins.

"That's right, Yijin Zhentian discovered the soil spider outside the station. After the news came back, we brought a small team to lurk there to inquire about the situation." The white wolf's calm and serious voice sounded, "But he seems to have We found Yijin Zhentian, so we hid secretly and we didn't realize its existence."

That's why he thought that Yijin Zhentian misjudged the evil spirit, relaxed and became careless, but was secretly followed back to the station by the soil spider for a sneak attack.

The spider silk was very long and thick, and there was a strange cyan faintly in the white. Hearing the white wolf's explanation, Qiong Lang nodded, and tentatively stretched out two thin fingers to touch the spider thread.

The first feeling after using it was that it was extremely sticky, as if it could not be washed off if it touched the hands, the disgusting mucus seemed to be crazily absorbing the evil spirit.Qiong Lang frowned slightly, and vigorously rubbed the two fingers wrapped in spider silk, feeling pain and numbness in the fingertips subtly.

Qiong Lang withdrew his hand subconsciously, and looked through the demon fire, there was a very shallow cut on her white and delicate fingers, but no blood oozing out.

"Are you okay?" Big Tengu saw this scene, and quickly pulled her hand over. He was slightly relieved to see that her injury was not serious, but he still felt very distressed because of the shallow mark, and softly reprimanded, "Don't touch her indiscriminately." These things are poisonous."

"I'm fine, this bit of poison can't do anything to me." Qiong Lang shook his head, his eyebrows raised slightly, "But this thing is much more powerful than I imagined."

She has eaten mermaid meat, and her body's recovery ability is more than ten times that of ordinary monsters.He also beheaded the Jiao Yao to seize its demon power, although it was not as powerful and fearless as the body of a dragon, it was not easy to be injured by other weapons.This spider silk can leave a light mark on her hand, it must be like cutting a human head, and most monsters' fur armor is not easy to resist.

The mucus is corrosive, and after swallowing the demonic energy of the body, it will cut the skin and paralyze the prey, making them incapacitated.At this moment, her fingertips felt a little numb, but she couldn't feel the slightest pain.

This attack method is conservative and insidious, much like an ordinary spider hunting for food, but it gave Qiong Lang a preliminary judgment on the strength of the soil spider.The attacking tactics are not even as strong and fierce as the bride of the net. Either this monster has a higher IQ and strategic foresight, or his strength is not enough to fight against the entire monster group, and he dare not face the enemy head-on.

In this regard, Qiong Lang is more inclined to the latter, or both.

There was no smell of pearls near the camp, the clam spirit became more and more anxious, and Qiong Lang's originally calm heart began to feel a little uneasy, but at this time Huang, who had been concentrating on divination in silence, finally spoke.

"I got it, she's to the east of the station!"

Glancing along the direction of Huangzhi, Datengu and Qiong Lang looked at each other, and immediately went deep in that direction.

"It's different from the direction in which the soil spider was found. It seems to be fairly safe."

A group of people walked towards the east at the foot of the mountain, and the time had passed from dusk to the moon hanging in the sky.From time to time, there were native monsters passing by nearby, but the powerful demon power of the big tengu and his party on the opposite side could only be scared and fled in panic, not daring to have the slightest intention of provocation.

Qiong Lang had only explored the southwest of the forest, and it was the first time she had stepped into the east. Since she encountered monsters like soil spiders, she no longer took it lightly, but became extremely vigilant.

The ghost knows whether the monster will suddenly rush out to seek revenge after sensing the breath of the big tengu.

When they walked in the middle of the night, with the speed of monsters, they were already very, very far away from the station and the sea area, and they still couldn't feel the breath of the pearl.

Qiong Lang frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice uncertainly: "Are you sure you didn't predict wrong?"

"There shouldn't be any mistakes." Huang pursed his lips and shook his head slightly, with a hint of uncertainty in his expression. His foreknowledge had not made any mistakes for many years, and Gouyu pointed out that the pearl was in this direction.

However, if she was lost in the forest because she got lost, as a sea monster, she was not used to land at all, so she shouldn't have traveled so far.

Just when the clam was on the verge of collapse, she finally shouted joyfully with tears in her eyes: "I sense her existence!"

From a distance, she could sense Pearl's steady and powerful healthy heartbeat coming from somewhere, and immediately quickened her pace and rushed over at a trot.

Hearing the sound, Qiong Lang quickly caught up with the clam spirit, and finally came to a place that was well hidden by shrubs and ancient trees.Completely different from the calmness and silence of winter, the trees and flowers nearby have already sprouted branches, with a strong aroma of grass and trees, and the luxuriant leaves are like a natural barrier in front of them.

"Wait! There's an enchantment here." Big Tengu frowned, and hurriedly called to the clam spirit who was about to cross the barrier.

"Boundary?" The oyster retracted her foot in fright, turned her head and asked worriedly, "Is this the territory of other monsters? Could it be that the pearl was taken away by some terrible monster?"

Thinking of this, she started to turn around anxiously, Qiong Lang took a deep breath and patted her on the shoulder, "Don't worry, the evil spirit here is not very strong."

At least when facing each other, she can guarantee that her side will never be at a disadvantage.

Qiong Lang looked at the enchantment barrier like a high wall, raised his hand and was hesitating whether to forcibly make a gap, but the enchantment barrier unexpectedly became weaker.

Under the darkness of night, a black shadow slowly walked out from the barrier, resembling a human being but not human.With the help of the demon fire lamp, Qiong Lang could clearly see the appearance of the monster that walked out of the barrier.

It was a deer-like monster with a human head, long silver-white hair draped quietly and softly behind it, with sharp and straight antlers in between.The monster's green eyes are purely like emerald gemstones, but gentle yet with a sense of tenacity, like trees struggling to grow in the cold winter.

The other party should be the owner of this place, but there was no hostility on his body other than vigilance, Qiong Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly took the system's ability detector to test him.

Xiaolu male is an SSR-level monster.

The Big Tengu took the lead to take a step forward, and stood in front of Qiong Lang with a hidden guard, and asked in a deep voice, "Is your Excellency the owner of this place?"

The little deer man didn't answer immediately, but turned his eyes around Qiong Lang and the clam spirit, and asked suddenly: "Are you... are sea monsters?"

"That's right! I'm a sea monster, my lord. I noticed my sister's aura near your territory. She got lost with us due to an accident today. Can you open the barrier and let us pass through?"

Hearing the clam spirit's anxious words, the little deer man's vigilant and vigilant expression disappeared without a trace.

"I picked up a comatose sea monster while looking for food in the Green Firefly Forest today. It seems that she should be the person you are referring to." The little deer man said, opening the barrier to reveal a passable entrance , motioning them to come with them.

Green Firefly Forest should be the name of this forest.

"This forest is some distance away from the sea. Usually, you rarely see sea monsters. I just suddenly noticed the smell of the sea outside. I guessed that you are related to that girl. It seems that my prediction was right."

Qiong Lang and Big Tengu exchanged glances, seeing that the little deer man left his back to them so trustingly, he also let go of his guard.

"Is it the girl with short light blue hair? She is my sister, yes, where is she now?"

"Don't worry, she seems to have encountered something bad. She fell into a coma in the woods, and she hasn't woken up until now." Since the sea monster can't leave the sea for too long, Xiao Lu was worried that something would happen to her, so he had to put her away first. Lie down in the water temporarily.

Qiong Lang and the others followed him quickly to a diving pond under the darkness of night. Pearl was lying quietly in the water as if she was asleep. Fortunately, her face was rosy and her heartbeat was steady, and she didn't seem to be seriously injured.

The water in the pool is not comparable to the sea water. Seeing this scene, the clam spirit quickly transformed into its own body, and the pearls were gently wrapped in the crystal-clear jade shell, caring for her gently.

Qiong Lang reached out to pick up the enchantment stone on Pearl's waist and glanced at it. There was already a crack on it, which seemed to have triggered the enchantment barrier and withstood a rather powerful attack.

"Thank you for rescuing her in such a dangerous forest." Qiong Lang took a deep breath, turned around and nodded his thanks with a solemn expression.

A voice came from the darkness, with a wonderful and demagogic power, which made people involuntarily put down their guard.

"Ding", the little deer man's favorability has increased by 10 points, and the current favorability is 10 points.

He couldn't help but follow the prestige to look over, it was dark just now, and at this moment he could see Qiong Lang's face clearly through the bright light, he was slightly startled for a moment, "No...you're welcome..."

"Little Lu, my name is Qiong Lang, and I am a monster from the Raksha Sea in the north. You saved Pearl, and we will accept your favor."

"Qiong Langji of Rakshahai?" Xiaolu finally recovered from his trance, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.He had heard of the name of the Demon King of Rakshahai before, but he never expected to meet her here.

Seeing this strange deer demon still staring at Qiong Lang in a daze, a trace of annoyance flashed in Datengu's eyes, he blocked his sight without a trace, and asked in a cold tone: "My name is Datengu, thank you for saving us My friend, but can you tell us the details of the discovery of the pearl?"

Only then did Xiaolu come back from his trance, with a trace of embarrassment and shyness on his face, "Hold, sorry...I'm rude."

"Today, when I was looking for food in the forest, I noticed turmoil in the west, and there seemed to be a horrible monster in it, so I went along the road to have a look." Mentioning the important matter, the little deer man said seriously.

"The monster? Do you mean the soil spider?" Huang asked subconsciously.

"That's right, that's it." Hearing him mention the soil spider, the little deer instinctively flashed a hint of vigilance in his eyes, and said calmly, "This monster is terrible. It has been lurking in the northwest of the forest for many years. Almost all the monsters in the forest Don't dare to approach it, otherwise you will be hunted and killed if you are not careful."

"But that spider is very strange. It always hides in the dark for food, and rarely leaves its territory. I don't know why it made such a big fuss like it went crazy today." Deer added doubtfully. Dao, "When I was near a monster station, I noticed a strong enchantment monster energy not far away, and found the pearl there."

"The spider was acting uncharacteristically and I feared it would be dangerous so I took her back to my own territory."

Big Tengu nodded in understanding, but Qiong Lang grasped the point of his words and asked: "You said that when you met Pearl, there was a strong wave of monster energy, right? That should be because of the enchantment stone on her body. Protect her, have you seen what happened at that time?"

"Qiong Lang...?" Big Tengu noticed her frowning slightly, and a trace of doubt and thought flashed in her eyes.

Qiong Lang pursed his lips, put the enchantment stone on Pearl's body in his hand, and said in a low voice: "The crack on this enchantment stone doesn't seem to be due to resisting the soil spider."

Judging from the dictation of White Wolf and Yijin Zhentian, the spider did nothing but spit out mist and spider silk to attack them.If this is the case, there will be no such cracks in the enchantment stone, and this mark obviously suffered a powerful fatal blow.

The big tengu came to understand, and his expression became serious.

If there are other monsters other than the earth spiders taking advantage of the chaos and trying to harm the monsters in Luochahai, they will definitely not give up.

"Uh... I didn't see it very clearly. The enchantment light was very dazzling at that time, but I seem to smell the smell of a fox..."

The author has something to say:

A new SSR has appeared, how can I let it go and not attack it...

Gouzi: Can you not attack boys... I always feel green on my head.

Qiong Lang: Then I will attack girls

Sister Deng: like me

Yan Mo: and me

Yanyanluo/Demon Sword: in line

Gouzi: ...Suddenly it feels greener.

*****

Tomorrow, I will let the demon fox make a bento... Should I make a bento directly, or will I be locked up in prison forever as a coolie?
