Cannibalism

Xie Sheng walked through the bushes and came to a locust tree forest. He put the yellow cat on the ground and rubbed its paws along the way.

The yellow cat wanted to jump up and transform into a human, but at this moment someone grabbed its tail.

It turned its head and looked at the hand that grabbed the tip of his tail, with a slight displeasure in its eyes.

"Meow."

The tail turned left and right and struggled, but Xie Sheng's grip was too tight and he couldn't let go.The yellow cat patted Xie Sheng's hand, but it didn't stretch out its nails, showing no deterrent effect.

Seeing his anxious look, Xie Sheng finally let go and chuckled: "Aren, you are not a cat, you just borrowed the cat's body, you don't need to be afraid of others scratching your tail like other cats."

When the white smoke gathered in front of his eyes, the yellow cat suddenly turned into a handsome young man.The boy snorted: "As long as you grab my tail, I will feel uncomfortable all over and I will not be able to walk steadily. You are not allowed to catch me in the future."

Xie Sheng wanted to continue joking, but suddenly he heard a chaotic sound behind him.

He looked back, and what he saw under the moonlight was a towering ancient pagoda tree forest. There was no one around, except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

This is the season when the Sophora japonica flowers are withering, and the fallen flowers float across the grassland, and they whirl gently when the wind blows.

The wind and frost of the years have bent the branches of the locust tree.

There were no birds on the tree, it was empty.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that he was on guard, Yuan Shiren asked, "What did you see?"

Xie Sheng thought he heard it wrong, so he waved his hand and led Yuan Shiren up the mountain: "It's nothing."

"Hiss..."

Tigers have sharp hearing, and it is impossible to mishear twice in a row.

The two stopped at the same time and looked back together.Hitoshi Tobishi heard it this time too, there was indeed a strange noise behind him.

They stared at the locust tree forest, and slowly approached it step by step.

The moonlight was faint, but the locust tree forest was exceptionally lush, and the gray and chaotic place was completely black.Xie Sheng conjured up a ball of candlelight, shining towards the locust tree forest.

With the light of the fire, Hitoshi Tobiro discovered something that should not have appeared in the locust tree forest.He patted Xie Sheng on the shoulder, nodded to him, and then quickly walked around to an ancient locust tree.

——finally stopped in front of a two-person-tall crape myrtle tree.

This tree is very close to the tall ancient locust tree behind it, but there are clusters of red flowers blooming on the tree, which does not look like it has been blocked from the light for a long time.

Yuan Shiren glanced at Xie Sheng, then showed his nails, and scratched lightly on the bark of the crape myrtle tree.

The branches of the crape myrtle tree shook immediately, causing the flowers and branches to tremble.Xie Sheng suddenly realized: "This is an itchy tree."

Yuan Shijin asked knowingly: "Are there any crape myrtle trees planted in the pagoda tree forest on your mountain?"

Lagerstroemia indica is afraid of itching, so it is also called itchy tree.

Xie Sheng knew that he was speaking to the tickling tree: "Even if we planted crape myrtle, we wouldn't just plant this one. Otherwise, it would be putting the cart before the horse to let it flourish alone when the locust tree is withering."

Yuan Shiren opened his palm and scratched at the crape myrtle tree with ten nails: "Let me see what's the secret behind it."

Creaking, creaking and scraping for a while, the crape myrtle tree trembled again, and now the unexpected visitor finally couldn't hold his breath.The crape myrtle tree uttered a man's voice: "I, I can't take it anymore. Don't scratch me, I'm so itchy...haha...quickly stop."

"Where did the villain come from, don't show up quickly." The candlelight in Xie Sheng's hand became brighter and brighter, and it was about to burn to the trunk of the crape myrtle tree.

"Ah! Don't burn me." The crape myrtle tree moved aside, "I'm burning."

It took a few steps back tremblingly, and turned behind the ancient locust tree surrounded by three people: "I, I will come out right away."

Neither of them knew what the crape myrtle tree was going to do.In a blink of an eye, I suddenly saw a young man holding a flower umbrella walking behind the tree.

The young man was wearing emerald jade boots, wearing a plum red robe, half of his face was covered under an umbrella, and only his clean and clean chin could be seen, without any trace of stubble.

Peach blossoms and luan birds are embroidered on the surface of the umbrella, colorful and feminine.

Yuan Shiren and Xie Sheng quickly looked up.

At night, there is no sun or rain on Tianyan Mountain, so it seems inappropriate to carry an umbrella.

Xie Sheng took the umbrella as a cover-up to make people relax their guard.He stood in front of Yuanshiren and said, "Who are you? What are you doing secretly on Tianyan Mountain?"

Only when he walked in did Xie Sheng see his face covered with rouge and gouache.

"My name is Li Tick. I, I came to Tianyan Mountain to find my friend. She is gone." Li Tick covered the sweat on his cheek with his cuff, "Why do you two look at me like this? Did it grow flowers?"

This is not the first time Xie Sheng has dealt with the Flower and Tree Demon.Most of the high-level flowers and trees are monoecious, and there is no distinction between men and women. Therefore, flower and tree demons who have just cultivated spiritual consciousness often cannot distinguish their own gender, showing masculinity and femininity or feminine masculinity.After getting used to the human form, they can learn to distinguish between men and women.

It seems that this crape myrtle tree has only cultivated spiritual consciousness not long ago, so it does not pose any serious threat.

"Since you want to find someone, you should go up the mountain openly, instead of hiding here." Although he has put down his guard, Xie Sheng still has doubts about him, "When did your friend come to the sky?" Yanshan?"

"She's not in Tianyan Mountain." Li Tiao's willow leaf eyebrows frowned slightly, and sighed softly: "My friend is also a crape myrtle tree, but it was captured before it became a demon. I heard that Tianyan Mountain The Tiger Clan is a chivalrous hero, so I went up the mountain to ask the Tiger Clan to help find its whereabouts."

The crape myrtle tree demon twirled its umbrella ribs, and the ostrich and peach blossoms swayed in the forest.Kite Muro Jin discovered that this flower umbrella does not have only one umbrella surface, but many pieces.Under Li Ting's movements, the umbrella surfaces flipped back and forth to cover, and there was a dancing lantern effect.

It's not that Xie Sheng doesn't want to help him, but the rescue of Xiao Shisi is the most important thing right now, he said: "It's really unfortunate that you came here. We all have important things to do now, and we can't get out to help you. Can you help me?" First go to the flower markets in the surrounding towns by yourself, maybe you can find your friends there."

"It can only be like this." Li Ting sighed holding up the umbrella, "Although my friend can't speak yet, she has always been by my side to practice with me. Seeing that she is about to cultivate spiritual consciousness, but It disappeared under my nose. Alas, I was the one who felt sorry for her, I couldn't protect her well even after becoming a demon."

"Little brother, don't be discouraged, hurry up and find her at the bottom of the mountain." Xie Sheng patted him on the shoulder, "Don't hide in the forest when you come to Tianyan Mountain, we will arrest you as an uninvited guest."

"Thank you senior for reminding me." Li Ting smiled sweetly at Xie Sheng, held up a flower umbrella and flew up to the treetops, "There is also that young monster who is similar to me, why do you look like this?"

After a pause, Yuanshiren realized that the crape myrtle tree demon was calling him.He pointed to his nose and asked, "Are you talking about me? What's wrong with me?"

"You are also a flower." The soft moonlight reflected Li Tick's smile even more charming, "Although I can't see your petals or stamens, I know that most of the flowers and trees that can cultivate into demons are male and female. Same plant. You should also release your nature like me, don't let down your pistil."

Monoecious.

Unleash your instincts...

pistil……

Yuan Shiren blushed in embarrassment, and just about to speak up to object, the crape myrtle tree demon had already flown down the mountain with a flower umbrella, leaving behind a cloud of fragrance.

After finally saying a word to the same kind, Toshiro Jin felt a sense of unease.He squeezed his lips tightly and looked at Xie Sheng, who was staring in the direction of Li Ting's departure.

"Monoecious plants..." Xie Sheng repeated in a low voice, and suddenly there was a flash of inspiration in his eyes, "Aren, do you have a pistil? Then will you have children?"

"Ugh!"

Unsurprisingly, Xie Sheng was stabbed in the head by the barb on Huashen's arm.

Hitoshi Tobishi looked slightly annoyed: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I won't ask any more." Xie Sheng quickly covered the back of his head, rolled his eyes, and hurriedly changed the subject, "Oh, by the way, when I was looking for related books about the Heart of the Fire Spirit today, I saw the record of the piranha. Nearly 1000 years ago, someone saw the piranha in Fanchuan Ghost Domain. Tell me, could it be your elders?"

Sure enough, Yuanshiren was so disturbed by Xie Sheng's words that he forgot the topic of "having a baby", his eyes lit up: "What did the above say?"

"There are sketches of your family, but the details are not enough to show the clues of Huazui. I think, since I can find related records in Fanchuan Ghost Domain Chronicles, it means that there are records in other ancient books. When I finish dealing with Xiaosi Fourteen's If there is something wrong, I will turn the Library Pavilion upside down, and I will definitely help you find the flower stamen... the flower mouth."

Although piranha is a close relative of manjusawa, it is not as common as manjusawa.There are ten thousand manjusawa flowers born between the heaven and the earth, and it may not be possible to grow a single piranha.Before meeting Ren Yuanshi, Xie Sheng had only heard the name of the piranha in the legend.

People in the world don't know the habits of piranhas, so they can only describe them as human-eating monsters.

Violent, violent, do all kinds of evil.

The crape myrtle petals scattered behind them were blown away by the wind together with a few manjusawa flowers and leaves that were not noticed by the two of them.

midnight.Tianyan Mountain.

Xie Sheng and Xie Nan are still struggling to recall whether they have offended someone who knows the shapeshifting technique recently.Halfway through the discussion according to memory, the servant boy at the door suddenly knocked on the door and said, "Young Master Ten, Young Master Twelve. Queen Butterfly came from Yugong Peak overnight—"

Queen Butterfly is Xie Gan, Xie Sheng's eleventh sister.

According to the rules, after Xie Gan marries, he must be notified by the doorman before he can enter the house.But today, she didn't bother to wait for the doorman to complete the notification, so she rushed in directly: "As soon as Niutou told King Butterfly about today's news, I rushed back. Where's Little Fourteen? Are you detained in the ghost world?"

Xie Sheng poured a cup of tea for his sister: "Sister, don't worry, we will find a solution."

Xie Gan stomped his feet angrily: "Someone pretends to be our Xie Tiger Clan, I'm really impatient. That fire spirit is not a good thing, how dare we detain our little fourteen in the ghost world."

"Sister." Xie Nan called to stop her, "Don't get excited. Getting excited can't solve anything, let's calm down and think about who might be the enemy who pretended to be us and stole the Heart of Fire Spirit."

Outside the window, Yuan Shiren and Yong Chuan are having a drink under the moonlight.

Yong Chuan stole a jug of wine from somewhere, and ran to bring it to Yuan Shiren to drink.

"Do you have any idea about the whereabouts of the heart of the fire spirit?" Yong Chuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the three blurred figures in the window.

The shadow swayed with the candlelight.

"A little bit." Yuanshiren nodded first, and then shook his head, "I'm just guessing that Fanchuan Huoling doesn't seem to know anything about the thief's identity. After all, he knows far more than we imagined." .As an ancient deity that existed since the beginning of the world, he couldn't casually recognize the thief who stole his heart."

Yong Chuan bit his cup, and said in a vague voice: "You mean, he might have intentionally wronged Xie Nan and Xie Sheng? Then what exactly is he planning?"

"I don't know." Yuan Shiren's thoughts were a little confused, "In short, wronging Xie Nan and Xie Sheng will not bring him any loss."
