Zhuxian Prequel: Wilderness

Chapter 71 Puppy

In the early morning of the next day, two strange lights flew down from Qingyun Mountain, passing through clouds and fog, flying over many mountains, and finally landed outside Caomiao Village at the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

The aura flickered and swayed, and after landing, the light appeared like a gorgeous and beautiful brilliance, and then dissipated, revealing two figures, Tian Buyi and Suru.

In Tian Buyi's hand is the Chiyan Immortal Sword, while the magic weapon in Suru's hand is an amber scarlet silk, which looks crystal clear and soft, seems to have spirituality, and wraps around her body directly.

Tian Buyi couldn't help but took a second look, and said, "Junior Sister Su, your amber and scarlet silk magic weapon is rare."

Suru was a little proud, and said, "Isn't it pretty?"

Tian Buyi nodded repeatedly, and said: "It's very beautiful, especially if you use it, it's even more beautiful."

Suru blushed, glared at Tian Buyi, and said, "Fatty man! I noticed that you have become more and more glib recently."

Tian Buyi scratched his head, and smiled after a while: "What I'm telling is the truth."

Suru snorted, ignored him, and walked straight forward, but there was already a little more smile in her eyes.Tian Buyi followed her, looked left and right, and said, "Hey, I seem to have been here before."

Suru was a little surprised, and said, "You actually came to Caomiao Village?"

Tian Buyi thought for a while, and said: "That's right, on the way to the wild land with Senior Brother Wan, we met some demons who persecuted the villagers shortly after we got down from Qingyun Mountain. We rescued a pair of grandparents. Uncle Zeng often sent them here to join relatives. Well, this is Caomiao Village."

Suru laughed, and said: "It's a coincidence, later on you can go and see if their grandparents are doing well. But today, let's finish our own affairs first." Then she looked around After a while, he quickly found the ruined grass temple on the side outside the village, and took Tian Buyi to walk there.

Tian Buyi walked beside Suru, said: "Junior Sister Su, stand back a bit, if there is some kind of spirit causing the strange noise in the grass temple, let me deal with it."

Suru rolled his eyes at him, said: "I'm not a mortal without virtue, so I have nothing to be afraid of."

Tian Buyi chuckled, but he stepped up two steps, walked in front of Suru, walked towards the door of the ruined grass temple, and said at the same time: "If you come with me, you will treat me as a friend Of course I can't let you go ahead."

Suru bit her lips lightly with her white teeth, and then looked at the somewhat pudgy figure, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This dilapidated grass temple seemed to have been abandoned for some time, the two wooden doors at the entrance were ajar, Tian Buyi pushed lightly, and the wooden door made a deep "squeak" sound and pushed open.

Tian Buyi glanced inside the gate, and found that this grass temple is actually not too big, and the layout is quite simple, it is just a small courtyard in the front courtyard, followed by a room in the back, and a clay sculpture Bodhisattva is enshrined.

The Caomiao was very quiet, because it was deserted, so it was covered with dust everywhere, many of the bluestone floors in the courtyard were upturned, and a lot of green weeds could be seen growing from the gaps.As for the room ahead, the paint on the statue was also peeling off, and it looked lifeless.

Tian Buyi looked around and didn't find any danger, so he went in first, Suru followed him and also stepped into the courtyard.

At this time, there was a breeze blowing from outside, the green weeds shook one after another, and the wooden door shook twice to make a sound, but other than that, there was really no movement, including the weird sound in the rumors, there was no sound at this moment. no trace.

Tian Buyi turned around and looked at Suru with doubts in his eyes.Suru also frowned, and said: "It's strange, what they said earlier is this place, could it be that those villagers got it wrong and scare themselves?"

"Alas……"

Before the words fell, suddenly a somewhat shrill and strange cry suddenly came from that room.

Suru was startled, and with an "ah", subconsciously took a step back, before she could speak, she suddenly saw a generous back appearing in front of her, it was Tian Buyi who blocked it immediately In front of her, she pulled out the Chiyan Immortal Sword at the same time, staring at the room where the statue was enshrined with piercing eyes, ready to fight.

"Ah... ah... ah..."

The cry became more and more shrill, it was really scary to hear, but Tian Buyi and Suru are both Qingyun sect disciples who have accomplished in cultivation, their vision and knowledge are not comparable to ordinary people.At first, the two were still a little nervous and guarded, but as they listened, they suddenly frowned, and looked at each other again, but they both heard something was wrong.

Although the voice sounded weird and frightening, it was clearly lacking in energy, and the tone was trembling constantly. It was said to be the howling of a monster, but it was more like the whining of a dying beast.

Tian Buyi nodded to Suru, then walked towards the house with the Scarlet Flame Immortal Sword in his hand, Suru followed behind, the amber scarlet silk on his body floated and undulated slowly without any wind, obviously, he was still a bit on guard.

Tian Buyi walked in front, entered the door of the house, looked left and right, saw that the ground had collapsed and some bricks and tiles had fallen down, dust was everywhere.At this time, the strange cry rang again, and this time the two of them really heard it clearly, and it came from behind the statue.

Tian Buyi walked forward, first looked up and down the statue, then jumped on the altar, stepped on the clay lotus platform, and turned sideways to look behind the statue.

Suru who was standing below was suddenly a little nervous, and hurriedly said: "Tian Buyi, be careful."

Tian Buyi turned his head and grinned at her, waved his hand to indicate that there was no problem, then took two steps forward and turned to the back of the statue.

At this moment, the shrill and strange sound suddenly yelled again, and it was more rapid and sharp than before. Suru was startled, and just about to go up to help, she heard a few low and dull sounds, which seemed to be bricks moving It fell, and then Tian Buyi's body retreated, as if holding something in his hand, he jumped off the altar.

Suru took a closer look and was stunned for a moment, only to see that what Tian Buyi was holding was a yellow puppy, it looked ordinary, it was the most common little dog in the countryside.It's just that this puppy looks dying at this moment, its chest is slightly heaving in Tian Buyi's hand, even its eyes are half closed, it looks dim.However, its body was still trembling slightly, as if it was very frightened.

Tian Buyi said: "It's this little guy. When I went up just now, I saw it was crushed under a pile of broken bricks and couldn't move. Then it barked non-stop. It might be a little wild dog without a home. Playing in the temple, then being pressed there and unable to break free, without eating or drinking, even the screams were deformed, so the villagers in the village misunderstood."

Suru nodded, looked at the little yellow dog in Tian Buyi's hand, saw that it was very cute and fluffy, but it was dying at the moment, its mouth and nose were even cracked, obviously it was tortured too much by hunger and thirst.Suddenly she felt sad, and said in a low voice, "Ah, this puppy is so pitiful."

After speaking, she took the puppy from Tian Buyi's hands, and gently stroked the puppy's head and back with her hands.

Strange to say, the little yellow dog seemed to be comforted by her touch, and his trembling body gradually calmed down, but his dying look remained unchanged.

Tian Buyi frowned, said: "It should be too long since I haven't drank water, I'm thirsty, I'll go out and find some water."

After finishing speaking, he strode out, there was a village outside, the clear water was naturally not a problem, not long after, Tian Buyi returned to the grass temple with a gourd of clear water, Suru stretched out his hand to signal Tian Buyi to go to her He poured some water into his snow-white palm, and then carefully placed his hand near the little yellow dog's mouth.

The little yellow dog moved a bit, and seemed to be shaken suddenly, and immediately stuck out its tongue to lick Suru's little hand non-stop, and drank it up within two sips.

Then, Suru fed the little yellow dog several times with clear water, and the little yellow dog regained energy as if it was raining after a long drought, and seemed to have regained a lot of vitality.

Tian Buyi watched Suru take good care of the little yellow dog, so he simply went out again, and when he came back, he had some more meaty bones on his body, and put them in front of the little yellow dog.

The little yellow dog was obviously very hungry, so he rushed over and gnawed on the ground, eating happily.

Seeing the little yellow dog's appearance, Suru couldn't help laughing, patted the little yellow dog's head, and said, "Don't worry, eat slowly."

The little yellow dog's eyes have regained a bit of brilliance at this moment. Hearing that he rubbed his head against Suru's palm, he barked as if coquettishly. At this time, his voice sounded back to normal, like an ordinary dog ​​barking. "Wow woof" sounded.

Suru smiled and stood up, walked to Tian Buyi's side, said: "It turned out to be such a puppy, but it's good, this matter is finally resolved, just go back and talk to the villagers in Caomiao Village."

Tian Buyi gave a "hmm", nodded, and said: "Then I'll talk it over, let's go."

Suru responded, Tian Buyi turned around and took two steps, suddenly found that Suru was still standing there, looked at the little yellow dog with some reluctance, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Suru sighed, and said: "Tell me, what will happen to this puppy if we leave?"

Tian Buyi thought for a while, and said: "I think it should be a wild dog, probably wandering around."

Suru pursed her lips, a hint of unbearableness flashed across her face, and said, "It sounds a little pitiful, if this happens again in the future, I'm afraid it will be... well, no one will come to save it."

Tian Buyi shook his head, said: "There are too many such things, we can't save them."

Suru sighed, nodded and said, "You're right, but I can't bear to see this poor puppy."

As if understanding some meaning of Suru's words, the little yellow dog that was burying its head in eating suddenly raised its head, glanced at the two of them, barked "Wow", wagged its tail, and seemed to want to come over , but after a while, it seemed that he still couldn't resist the temptation of delicious bone food, and continued to lower his head and eat fiercely.

Tian Buyi shook his head and laughed, thinking that the dog looks a bit stupid, then turned his eyes to look at Suru, only to find that Suru's eyes were looking at the little yellow dog, still somewhat reluctant.Tian Buyi disturbed his head, and tentatively said to Suru: "Junior Sister Su, if you really like this puppy, why not... you take it back to Xiaozhufeng and adopt it?"

Suru was stunned, first she was overjoyed, then she shook her head, flashed a trace of sadness, and said: "No, I really like this puppy, but Sister Shuiyue is usually annoyed by these things. Dogs and cats, they must get angry when they see it. I don’t want to make my senior sister angry.”

At this moment, Tian Buyi suddenly blessed his heart, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, as if all his life's wisdom and wit suddenly burst out at this moment, he said to Suru seriously: "That's it, no wonder you are also embarrassed. Hmm...it's better to let me do it Adopt this puppy, it will be kept on Dazhufeng on weekdays, if you have free time, or miss it, you can come to Dazhufeng to find me, and see the puppy."

Suru's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and laughed, "Oh, this is really a good idea, so it's settled!" She covered her mouth and smiled softly, feeling that looking at this fat man seems more pleasing to the eye now .
