Chapter 974: The Ghost Lingers
"You mean the fairy. ”
The fat butcher's face was surprised, followed by admiration: "It was three years ago, there was a big demon raging in the hidden city, and the people were struggling to make a living. Fortunately, the fairy descended from the sky and got rid of the big demon, and in order to thank the fairy, a statue was erected in the center of the city......"
Get rid of the big demon?
When Qin Xuan heard this, he was a little surprised in his heart, he couldn't imagine that Qingwan still had such glorious deeds in this hidden city.
But after thinking about it, the old man under the big tree at the beginning did say that Dongfang Qingwan had been practicing in this Buddha realm. It was precisely because of this that Qin Xuan felt that Dongfang Qingwan was still in this world.
"Is there any more news about her?"
Qin Xuan threw the two steppe wolves to the fat butcher and continued to ask with a smile.
"It's a shame I don't know anything. The people in our city have only seen the fairy once, and the statue can only be carved by the old painter in the city who asked the old painter in the city to draw it. ”
The fat butcher scratched his head in embarrassment, apologized for not having more information, and was a little embarrassed to take Qin Xuan's steppe wolf.
It can be seen that the people of this city are still very simple.
Qin Xuan smiled, left the steppe wolf behind, but did not ask for any payment, and continued to walk towards the west.
As long as you follow the trajectory, you will be able to find Dongfang Qingwan one day, right?
Looking at the back of Qin Xuan leaving, the fat butcher was a little inexplicable, but he got two steppe wolves for no reason, which was a big gain, and he hurriedly took it in and dealt with it.
Qin Xuan listened to the old man's words and headed west.
When he came to the city gate on the other side, he saw that beyond the city gate was also a vast green grassland. And at the end of the field of vision, it seemed that another big tree appeared, extremely familiar.
"Isn't that the big tree I saw when I first came in? No way, how could that big tree be so close to the Hidden City, and it changed direction......
Qin Xuan frowned, observed left and right, and finally decided to step forward to find out the truth.
In any case, there must be something wrong with this Buddha realm. At least to find this ghostly city, it all suddenly appeared after killing a group of steppe wolves, which had to make Qin Xuan think about it.
The big tree is indeed far away from the earthly city, and the hundreds of thousands of people in the city, almost no one will leave the city, probably for fear of encountering danger. In other words, this ghost city is a completely closed city.
"The people in the city are ordinary people. It seems that it is really difficult to meet the cultivators of this world. ”
Qin Xuan thought and sprinted towards the big tree.
Although it looked close at hand, Qin Xuan actually realized that the big tree was extremely far away from the Earth Hidden City, and it was not something that could be reached in a while.
Even after Qin Xuan ran for half an hour, he didn't feel that the distance between him and the big tree was closer.
"Is that a hallucination?"
Qin Xuan rested for a while and continued on his way.
He ran all the way until evening, when he was finally able to see the big tree and the old man in gray robe who was also sitting under the big tree.
"You're finally here. ”
The gray-robed old man smiled with satisfaction when he saw Qin Xuan's figure.
"Where the hell is Qingwan?"
Qin Xuan asked.
"Shouldn't this be asked of yourself?"
The old man smiled in surprise: "If there is fate, you can meet, if there is no fate, then ......"
Qin Xuan was silent when he heard this, this fate or something, he really hadn't been in contact with it, so it could be said that he didn't know anything about it. Could it be that he can find Qingwan really depends on fate?
"Ahem, you've been through two difficulties so far. ”
The old man coughed and continued with a smile: "Kill the steppe wolf and escape from the demon girl...... However, there are many more hurdles ahead. Monkey King learned scriptures from the West, but he went through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties......"
"Is eighty-one difficult?"
Qin Xuan was a little helpless, thinking to himself, could it be that in the legendary Journey to the West, the incident of going through eighty-one difficulties to the West to learn scriptures is true? And the place where the story takes place is in this free Buddha realm?
Qin Xuan shook his head, removing this absurd thought from his mind, and then asked, "Then if I go through the eighty-one tribulations, will I be able to meet Qingxuan?"
"Huh. ”
The old man smiled without saying a word, stretched out his hand and pointed to the west: "Go all the way to the west, you will find the answer." ”
Qin Xuan carefully looked at the old man's expression, and he couldn't see anything unusual.
"Forget it, then I'm leaving. ”
Qin Xuan waved his hand and continued on his way.
For Qin Xuan now, he can only listen to what the old man said and go all the way to the west. Even if this old man was deceiving Qin Xuan, as he himself said, as long as there is fate, he can always find Qingxuan.
This time it didn't take long to get out of the way, and the sky finally got dark.
The sun is setting and the moonlight is hanging.
In the vast prairie as far as the eye could see, Qin Xuan ran for a while, and when he looked back, he saw that the big tree had also disappeared completely.
To the west, there was nothing to be seen except a vast grassland.
This time, Qin Xuan looked at it carefully, and he was completely sure that there was nothing on the grassland in the west. If a city or something suddenly appears, you can be sure that there is something wrong with this space.
At this moment, Qin Xuan suddenly found that on the grassland not far from him, some hazy fires suddenly appeared, like ghost fires, which was extremely attention-grabbing.
"One, two, three, four...... Seven!"
Qin Xuan counted them and gasped.
Those seven demon girls!
Unexpectedly, after a day, these demon girls were still ghostly, which really made Qin Xuan frightened. What's even more terrifying is that now that seven demon girls are surrounding from all directions, Qin Xuan has no possibility of escaping at all.
"What a toss-up. ”
Qin Xuan thought in his heart, and continued to run towards the west without thinking.
In this direction, there were two demon girls on the left and one on the right, but Qin Xuan was almost certain that this time it would not be as easy as breaking through in the other party's lair.
Because, the other party should have taken precautions against the three-sword thing, and the heart is at night, and it is in the vast grassland that extends in all directions, even if it breaks through the interception of the two demon girls, it is difficult to survive until the morning.
"Unless they are all broken, they are all done!"
Qin Xuan was ruthless in his heart and made up his mind.
Whew!
The red-clothed and purple-clothed demon girls who came to face each scattered a translucent silk web after Qin Xuan approached, looking like a spider web.
However, the two demon girls looked extremely beautiful, with excellent figures, and there was temptation in their every move.
Even their eyes were full of extraordinary brilliance, and their pretty faces were flushed, as if they were seducing men.
"You want to catch me, it's not that easy!"
Qin Xuan snorted lightly and took out a blunt sword in his arms.
This blunt sword was two feet long, not sharp, and he had found an opportunity to get it when he was in the Hidden City. It's not sharp, but it's enough in a situation like this.
Bayonet style!
Qin Xuan's blunt sword stabbed, directly piercing the two cobwebs scattered by the other party, and the whole person rushed out, coming to less than a meter in front of the woman in red, almost sticking to it, the edge of the blunt sword reflected the bright moonlight.
"Childe, don't ......"
The red-clothed demon girl was so frightened that she hurriedly waved her hand and retreated, suddenly tripped and fell backwards to the ground.
"What are you doing with me!"
Qin Xuan asked viciously, and a sword slammed across the other party's neck.
When the demon girl in red heard this, she was so aggrieved that she almost burst into tears.
