"Girl, you can't just leave like this!"
The cave had only encountered such a lifesaver in the past few years, and the villagers were all panicked when they saw she was leaving.
Lu Yunsheng said: "Since it doesn't want to kill you, it certainly has no bad intentions. I'll find a way to talk to it, and then I'll find someone else to save you!"
"But……"
The villagers were afraid that she would never come back, and their haggard faces were filled with panic and worry.
But her feet were on her body, so who could do anything about it? All he could do was say a few words of comfort to gain some favor: "Girl, be careful."
Speak nicely, the girl is more likely to come back to save them~
The old Taoist added in a hoarse voice: "Daoyou, remember to come back and save us..."
Lu Yunsheng nodded, said no more, and walked out of the cave, hoping that the beast had not gone far.
After stepping out of the cave, she walked up the mountain road.
According to the location of the patio, the beast should be living on the top of the mountain.
She climbed higher and higher, occasionally looking back and seeing the scenery below gradually becoming wider and brighter.
But as she looked at the bottom of the mountain, she gradually frowned.
There is a winding river at the foot of the mountain. It goes around the mountain for most of the way and then extends eastward until it fades out of sight.
On both sides of the river, you can see layers of houses from afar.
It seems that this river supports many villages!
However, with the mountains as the boundary, the river upstream is obviously clear and bright, while the downstream is full of thick mud!
At first glance, there were serious signs of mudslides and landslides at the foot of the mountain. These signs seemed to be quite old and were not caused by the move of firing thousands of arrows just now.
Lu Yunsheng remembered that the village chief once said that Songjia Village had received a large order from a furniture factory, and the villagers took saws to the mountains to cut wood!
This is probably the reason why there is such an obvious difference in water quality between the upstream and downstream of the river.
The trees have been cut down and have lost their ability to protect the mountain. On rainy days, the soil on the mountain has no trees to support it, which can easily lead to mudslides and eventually pollute the water source.
What the villagers call "living off the mountain" is actually consuming the water quality of all downstream villages and using public resources for personal gain!
She had no idea whether the appearance of the beast was related to this incident.
Lu Yunsheng also wanted an answer, so she continued walking up the mountain and put the noise reduction charm on her ear again, so that she could hear the location of the beast more clearly.
“Ah… woo…”
The muffled thunder of the wild beast was getting closer and closer.
She followed the sound, walking as lightly as possible, until she saw a furry ball in the distance and stopped.
This time, Lu Yunsheng saw its appearance clearly.
It has a body like a tiger, covered with ice-blue fur, a pair of crystal horns on its head, and huge wings wrapped around its body. At the moment, it is perched under an old tree with a slightly wrinkled face, as if it is injured and in pain.
There was a silk-like faint light flowing between the nostrils, like the inhalation and exhalation of icy breath, or like a sigh!
Lu Yunsheng carefully examined the beast and felt like he had seen it somewhere before.
She searched through her memories for a long time and finally figured it out!
Immediately, I opened an e-book saved in my phone - "A Complete Collection of Spiritual Beasts"
Comparing with the spiritual beasts in the book, it is confirmed that the "big tiger" in front of us is actually an auspicious beast named "Bai Ze"!
The so-called auspicious beast can bring blessings to people and will never do evil things.
But according to the records in the books, these spiritual beasts should have disappeared from the mainland long ago, so how could it appear here?
Lu Yunsheng's eyes changed. Sure enough, there must be something behind Bai Ze's attack on the villagers!
Suddenly, the ears of the Bai Ze auspicious beast moved, as if it heard Lu Yunsheng approaching.
She lifted her eyelids, and when that pair of breathtakingly beautiful, golden eyes looked directly at Lu Yunsheng, her breathing almost stopped.
Bai Ze stood up vigilantly, and when he spread his wings, he inadvertently revealed the wound on his chest.
Those were arrow wounds left by countless sharp swords. The ice-blue fur was mixed with fine and dense bloodstains, which made Lu Yunsheng feel a little distressed.
Could it be that the move she used just now, shooting thousands of arrows at once, had injured it?
“Ouch!”
All the fur on its body suddenly exploded, and broken pieces of ice fell to the ground. Its front legs were slightly bent, and its mouth was bared, revealing four long fangs. It looked ferocious and ready to fight at any time!
Lu Yunsheng raised his hands high to show that he had no weapons in his hands, and at the same time apologized: "I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry."
“Ahh!”
Bai Ze roared even more fiercely, and the horns on his head emitted bursts of lightning!
Lu Yunsheng could roughly tell that it was a dual-attribute spirit beast of ice and thunder.
She explained patiently: "I know you want to drive me away, but I can't leave. First, I have to rescue the villagers and leave the cave. Second, although I don't know where you came from, your injuries were caused by me, and I want to do something to make up for it."
At the same time, he pointed to his chest with his hand to indicate the wound.
Bai Ze was very resistant at first, but after a few rounds, he realized that she meant no harm, and his murderous intent gradually subsided, and his face became wrinkled again.
He lay back on the ground with his body drooped, occasionally licking the wounds on his forelimbs with his tongue, making a "wuwu" sound from his mouth.
Lu Yunsheng looked at the long and thin wound on its front leg, which was most likely caused by her move of shooting thousands of arrows at once.
It really is... a huge sin!
She held the golden egg and slowly walked towards Bai Ze. The golden egg in her arms suddenly trembled.
"Mother, Chongming is cold..."
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
She held the golden egg tightly and walked towards Bai Ze.
Bai Ze raised his head and glanced at her again, but then he looked away in disappointment, and uttered a language in his throat that was even more difficult to understand than the key password of the planetarium:
"What's the point of telling her? Humans have long lost their psychic abilities. It's a wonder she can understand what I'm saying."
"Forget it. It's their own fault. If I continue to care about them, I won't be called Bai Ze anymore."
“Ugh… it hurts so much…”
The voice was dull and boring, and sounded like a child whining.
Lu Yunsheng's eyes widened. She actually heard this spirit beast talking! And miraculously, it understood it?!
"Do you... have something to say to me?"
She tried to talk to it tentatively.
Bai Ze raised his eyes in surprise, and the child's low voice came out of his throat again:
"This woman is so weird. She acts like she can communicate with me psychically. Can't I see that she is also a useless scumbag?"
"These scums, I sneaked over from the spirit world to warn them out of kindness. If they continue to cut down the trees on the mountain, the mountain will collapse and bury all the nearby houses alive. It's okay even if they don't understand what I'm saying, but they come to beat me for no reason..."
"It's ok to hit me, but they can't beat me. A random move will break their bones, and in the end they'll have to let me feed them."
"It's okay to raise them. Today, the villagers below shot arrows at the mountain. If I hadn't used my spiritual power to block these arrows, how many birds would have died in the sky?"
"Foolish humans... let them all die."
After Bai Ze finished speaking, he glared at Lu Yunsheng with his pair of golden eyes.
Lu Yunsheng rubbed his head awkwardly, "Sorry, I understand everything you said."
