Ji Xingling and Lin Jing didn't participate in the celebration barbecue, and as soon as the school anniversary award ceremony was over, they both found an excuse to slip away. Tang Yaoxun specially dispatched a car to drive out of the city quietly in the twilight, carrying the guarding tree and two children.
Ji Xingling still remembered what his uncle said before, that this sacred tree was very old, so old that he couldn't remember its age, and he didn't like to take human form very much, but liked to stand quietly in the campus and be with the children. Although the Yao Management Committee specially arranged a house nanny for him near the mountains and seas, the old man seldom went to live there.
The car got off the elevated road and finally stopped in front of a small farmyard in the suburbs.
In the last raccoon power incident, although Ji Minglang and Tang Yaoxun had already made arrangements, guarding the sacred tree also consumed a lot of energy, and even the walking speed was much slower. Lin Jing helped him into the small courtyard, the surroundings were quiet, as if there were no other people or monsters.
The vegetable garden is full of all kinds of vegetables, Ji Xingling thought vigilantly, don't say that you have to DIY for dinner.
Lin Jing asked, "Are there only three of us?"
"There are a lot of people." The guardian of the sacred tree replied, "You just follow me."
The small farmyard looks small from the outside, but it seems to hide countless houses and corridors. The deeper you go, the more lush the vegetation and wildflowers under your feet, and layers of moist white mist spread in the air... How do you recite Peach Blossom Spring
Lin Jing glanced at Ji Xingling in surprise and surprise.
The eldest young master seemed to be lacking in interest and not very energetic. Because he originally planned to return to Qingqiu with Mr. Xiaolin after the college entrance examination, but now he was the first to open the mountains and seas by the guardian tree, so he was not very happy.
A big naked white-headed bird dragged its long tail and circled in the air, singing sharply.
Ji Xingling took the initiative to explain: "It's fat stealing."
Another magpie with red eyes and white feathers followed closely behind.
"It's a baby spoon."
A group of snow-white deer also ran out, holding tender grass in their mouths, and rubbed against Grandpa Shenshu affectionately.
It is a husband who has just learned to walk and needs to supplement nutrition continuously.
This is a monster village.
The green or light silver grass and trees are covered with low hills, all kinds of furry or not furry little monsters dragging their tails and running around, the only fierce one is a huge black bird with an iron beak like a hook and wings covering the sky Day, Xi You was born in Kunlun. But since Ji Xingling and Lin Jing came in with the Old God Tree, Xi You didn't show too much hostility, and soon fluttered his wings and circled away.
Lin Jing asked in a low voice: "Will the big bird accidentally fly to Jincheng?"
"The mountains and seas are not connected to the human world." Ji Xingling picked up a red grass from the ground, "This is for you."
"What is it?"
"Huai dream grass, put it in your arms at night, you can dream of me."
Xiaocao curled up aggrieved, and Lin Jing replanted it while her boyfriend was not paying attention.
The human world is developing, and the monster village is no exception. The buildings here are no longer the mud tiles and thatch in the ancient books, and they even look a bit fashionable. The construction workers also have racism, but they are obviously much more industrious and simple than the group of outlaws from Xinli Construction. They are pushing cement carts and running diligently one after another to help the villagers repair the new style villas.
Ji Xingling ignored the wild twisting of the vines on the wall, and casually tore off a bunch of red fruits—now you know why all the little monsters are avoiding this domineering unicorn cub. He sipped the sweet juice with the tip of his tongue, and asked Grandpa Dashu politely, which restaurant should we eat later
"Go to Aunt Zhu Yu's house." Guardian Shenshu pointed forward with his walking stick, "It's the three-story building."
Aunt Zhu Yu, hearing this name, Lin Jing brain made up a plain fifty-year-old middle-aged woman wearing a flower headscarf. But when I knocked on the door, I found that my aunt was actually very young and very Western, wearing a snow-white chef uniform. It was said that she had just graduated from the monster branch of Le Cordon Bleu the year before last. Her hair was combed meticulously, and her cooking procedures were even more meticulous. An underage guest was already waiting to be fed, and was still grinding peppercorns slowly.
The Zhu Yu grass was growing wildly all over the yard, and the swallows' nests under the eaves made a lot of noise. Ji Xingling started to feel dizzy after sitting in the living room for a few minutes, so he ran out to get some air. Grandpa Shenshu handed Lin Jing another piece of dessert: "Try this, homemade sweet-scented osmanthus cake."
Lin Jing was a little curious: "Will the monsters here also go out?"
"Yes, they all have human ID cards, and they only go back to the village occasionally for vacation." The guardian of the tree replied, "At this time, most of the village are newborn little monsters, and they need to stay here to replenish their spiritual energy. Recently, Jincheng is repairing The elevated road around the city has caused serious environmental pollution.”
"The air here is very good." Lin Jing took a sip of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, "The desserts are also delicious."
"I've wanted to bring you here for a long time." The guardian of the sacred tree asked him kindly, "Do you feel that your body feels a little different?"
"Huh?" Lin Jing cooperatively "felt" for a minute, his stomach growling, "Does it matter if you're hungry?"
"..."
Guarding the sacred tree hit him with a walking stick: "Don't be like that unicorn cub!"
Lin Jing smiled and avoided: "No, I just feel that the environment here is very comfortable."
Guarding the sacred tree frowned and looked at him for a while, but still felt that the child was clean, obviously a plant. But for some reason, Ningcheng and Jincheng's demon management committees just couldn't find out, whether it was files or genetic testing, the final results all pointed to ordinary humans.
Unwilling to give up, the old man simply led him into the depths of the woods, pointed to the big pit in front of him and asked, "Do you want to go in and stand for a while?"
Cleanliness, Brother Lin, was startled on the spot, and quickly stepped back three meters to show his refusal, no, I don’t want to.
There is no way to guard the sacred tree. Because this pit is not an ordinary pit, but a plant VIP first-class pit filled with spiritual energy. It originated from Kunlun and is very precious. It is attractive enough to make all spiritual plants want to jump in and bury it for a year and a half. But seeing Lin Jing's reaction, it seemed that he really wanted to run away on the spot.
Guarding the sacred tree: "..."
Forget it, dizzy.
Lin Jing offered: "I'll go find Ji Xingling."
"Go, don't play too crazy." The old man waved his hand, and went back to Zhu Yu's house on crutches.
The setting sun has already set on the mountain, leaving only a piece of red golden glow, which is magnificent and continuous.
The air was filled with the scent of grass and flowers. On weekends, Lin Jing would occasionally follow Jiang Fenfang to the Cyanwood Mountain outside Jincheng for a walk to exercise. There were old trees and green grass growing there. I thought it was natural enough and pollution-free, but compared with the monster village, it was still Much worse.
A vine patted Lin Jing on the shoulder and greeted him friendly.
The blades of grass on the ground swayed in the wind, and the people swayed very gracefully and pleasing to the eye, and it was not at the same level as the mutated tree Yu Yizhou who touched the switch.
Every time you take a step, flowers will bloom in the footprints, bright yellow and pink.
Lin Jing didn't know if this was the performance of the monsters welcoming him, but he was happy enough. He stroked every tender bud and leaf with his fingertips, and then looked back at the pit.
It seems... okay, not dirty.
He walked back in a strange way, wanting to touch the white mist-like aura in the pit with his hand to see if it was as cool and smooth as he imagined, but the phone in his trouser pocket started ringing—there was also a WIFI signal here, and it was Aunt Zhu Yu. The children at home told him to go home for dinner.
"Well, right away." Lin Jing called Ji Xingling, but no one answered for a long time, and suddenly there was a "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping" sound from the other end of the forest.
He hurried over.
The Qilin cub was wrestling with a leopard-like little monster. The opponent was red all over, with five tails standing on end, and his roar was like clanging stones. It was a very irascible young ferocious, not afraid of the sky, not afraid of the earth, the kind that started to fight tigers when it was born, but the Qilin was far more violent than the ferocious, with strong front hooves and lightning gusts, the grass and leaves flew all over the sky.
Lin Jing: "Cough!"
The unicorn cub bit Hide's ear and looked up viciously.
"..."
"..."
The air is very quiet.
so awkward.
A few seconds later, the unicorn cub stood up gracefully and kicked the scorpion, hurry up and go.
Arching his back in dissatisfaction, he made an attacking posture again.
Lin Jing stepped forward and hugged her boyfriend: "Go home."
hideous:
There are many monster cubs along the way. As a mighty school bully, you Xingge, who is hugged and walked like this, has no face, so he wanted to jump to the ground, but Teacher Xiaolin refused to let go no matter what, and even hugged him. Tighter.
Qilin Cub: "..."
Lin Jing stared ahead, remained silent, with a calm expression, he seemed very calm, experienced countless times, and able to calm down the situation.
But in fact, it was almost crazy.
This time there is no Uncle Ji, no drivers, and no human masses who don't know the truth.
There are no parks, no streets, only monster villages shrouded in darkness.
What is the right time and place.
That's called.
Lin Jing took a deep breath: "Ji Xingling."
The unicorn cub raised his head vigilantly, what are you doing? ! Put away your dangerous expression, let me tell you that I am not that fat orange Li Zhao—
"Cai" hadn't had time to say it, and he was kissed so badly by Mr. Xiaolin that he almost died, from the horns of the dragon to the belly, and even the back hoof was pinched and numb. Qilin was shocked and depressed and thought brokenly, aren't you a serious clean freak? Can you dislike me a little bit for a fight in the dirt, and do you know that there is my reverse scale... Fuck!
Ji Xingling cursed, transformed back into a human form and pressed him on the grass: "Enough!"
Lin Jingji dressed well: "Are you angry?"
"I'm not angry." Ji Xingling bit his lip, warning with an adult tone, "But you're about to get angry, you know that?"
Lin Jingzhi wanted to say again: "Really, but you only have a little bit."
Ji Xingling:
Lin Jing also figured out that this sentence was not correct, and quickly added: "I mean volume, not anything else."
Ji Xingling stared into his eyes, this time he stood up in no hurry: "What else?"
Lin Jing didn't say a word.
Ji Xingling moved closer again, with a mischievous tone: "Tell me, there is only a little bit of anything else?"
Teacher Kobayashi replied calmly: "Your brain capacity."
"..."
You humiliate yourself, Brother Xing +1.
