mess with bad gods

Chapter 59
Su Xiaoluo took the red paper and looked left and right, but still couldn't find anything ugly, so she had to ask: "How can this be used? Will it create a path by itself, just follow along?"

"How is it possible?" The mountain god was rather helpless, "You didn't see this is a map?"

"This is a map?" Su Xiaoluo carefully looked at the red paper in his hand again. After the mountain god said that, he felt that those strange symbols really looked like routes.But she still couldn't understand those twists and turns, criss-crossing lines.Simply put it into Mu Zijin's arms, and said indifferently, "Red paper and red clothes are very suitable, take it well, don't lose it."

Mu Zijin took it in his hand, weighed it, and the red paper disappeared out of thin air.Bubble approached Su Xiaoluo, and said in a calm voice, "Master, you should be careful not to steal your talisman away."

Although it was in the form of whispering, everyone present could hear it clearly.Mu Zijin glanced at Pao Pao indiscriminately, but the latter hummed twice and did not intend to make eye contact at all.Su Xiaoluo knew that Pao Pao always disliked Mu Zijin, and this time she went to Huahai with Mu Zijin for some time, but she didn't take him with her.Rao is as dull as Su Xiaoluo, and knows that this is Pao Pao's intention to belittle Mu Zijin's image in front of her.So he just smiled and tugged on Bubble's sleeve, but didn't answer.

Just like when Li Yue left, the mountain god cut a small path and let Su Xiaoluo and others go out of the mountain from there.Before leaving, Su Xiaoluo felt that the fish and shrimps in the streams were more delicious than those eaten outside, so she asked Ayi to help her make some and bring them with her so that she could eat them when she was hungry on the road.

Ayi stood beside the mountain god, hesitated for a long time, and then whispered to Su Xiaoluo: "Sister, Ayi...can I come with you?"

Su Xiaoluo pointed to her nose: "Are you saying you want to come out of the mountain with me?"

Ayi nodded firmly as if he had finally made up his mind.

Su Xiaoluo looked at the mountain god with a questioning look, and the mountain god immediately changed into a sad face: "Oh, let's go, let's all go."

But what he said was bleak but no one bought it, the mountain god pretended to be sad and wiped his tears with his sleeves, but when he put it down, he saw Su Xiaoluo and the others walking straight up the path along with Ayi.When I was depressed in my heart, I saw Su Xiaoluo turned around again, and grinned: "Do you know where the god stone 'Shen' is?"

The mountain god also responded with a bright smile: "I know—but I won't tell you."

Before Su Xiaoluo could speak again, the mountain god waved his sleeve, and the path disappeared in front of his eyes, effectively blocking each other's sight, the mountain god clapped his hands in satisfaction, and walked leisurely into the house: "Oh, I'd better go to sleep first Say more."

But here, Su Xiaoluo stared at Mu Zijin: "He must have done it on purpose."

Mu Zijin nodded in agreement.

"Forget it, I'll find my apprentice first and then subdue Ji Guang, and then I'll come back to find him." At least the mountain god knows about the divine stone, so she doesn't have to worry, and the entrusted task is half done.

Ayi has never been out of the mountains. In his memory, the whole world is nothing but snow and green mountains and small waters in the flowing water. So when they walked out of the trail and saw the scene of flying yellow sand in front of them, there was nothing but surprise in their eyes. Just curious.It is completely different from Su Xiaoluo's frustration after she couldn't believe it.

As soon as a few people walked out of the path, the passage connecting Siyuan Mountain was completely cut off. Looking up, they didn't even see a living thing like an ant.Although several of them have never seen the desert, as a mortal, Su Xiaoluo probably knows something about it, thanks to the various versions of desert adventures that her seniors told her.In her current world view, the desert is an invisible and vicious killer who may kill you at any time, but you have nowhere to escape.

So, they walked for a whole day and saw that it was getting dark and they didn't see anything other than sand, Su Xiaoluo was already extremely anxious.Pulling on Mu Zijin's sleeve, his voice became much weaker: "What should we do?"

When I left the mountain, I brought a lot of food, but I didn't bring much water. At this time, eating food made me thirstier, so Su Xiaoluo is now in a pitiful situation of both hunger and thirst.Both Mu Zijin and Pao Pao are not mortal bodies, so there is no need, and A Yi was originally just a puppet, his soul is not complete, and he has no needs.Su Xiaoluo alone drank all the water in the day, and now he has not touched water for several hours, he is really thirsty.

Bubbles are aquatic organisms. In such a scorching sun and sky, they actually consume some, but the impact is not particularly large due to the short time.He also tried flying to explore the road, but it was just a piece of yellow sand after traveling for a long distance. Thinking about it, it really existed like a sea of ​​sand. Even if he was flying against the wind, it would take some time.

Mu Zijin left without haste from the beginning, and didn't say there was any solution, but only patted Su Xiaoluo on the head when she was about to go crazy to comfort her.It made Su Xiaoluo roll his eyes frequently: "I said, Lord Shenjun, you should also think of a way. If this continues, sooner or later I will be dried as human flesh."

Compared with Su Xiaoluo's frizzy hair, Mu Zijin is very calm, with a leisurely pace, stepping across without a trace: "It's not enough to dry human meat for a day."

Su Xiaoluo got angry, turned her head and didn't want to talk to him.

Seeing that Su Xiaoshi was very thirsty, Ah Yi took out a bamboo cup from his arms with a thought. After the sound of dripping water, the cup was filled with water, which was extremely clear.He handed the cup to Su Xiaoluo, showing a shy smile: "Sister, drink."

Su Xiaoluo took the cup, stared at the water that suddenly came out, then looked at A Yi who was a little pale, and licked her dry lips, but she couldn't drink it after all.

Ayi's eyes full of expectation faded away, and he said in a low voice: "Sister, this one is not dirty."

"What are you talking about." Su Xiaoluo nudged Ayi lightly angrily, then pointed at the bamboo cup and said solemnly, "Tell me honestly, what is this?"

Ayi lowered his head and did not answer, but Bubble next to him was enthusiastic, and said to Su Xiaoluo: "Master, this is the essence of this puppet's life, and it is very useful to you now."

"Bubbles!" Su Xiaoluo called out Bubbles in a strong tone, the little milk baby didn't know what she said wrong, curled her lips and stood aside again, with a very aggrieved expression on her face.Su Xiaoluo put the cup into A Yi's arms and said, "Although I don't know what the essence of life is, I definitely don't know how to drink it. You should take it back."

Hearing this, Ayi's face turned pale, "Ayi just...wanted to help my sister."

"I know."

"Then sister, just drink it, it's not poisonous."

"...Why are you so stubborn, kid? If you tell you to take it back, just take it back."

"Oh."

Seeing Su Xiaoluo's serious face, Mu Zijin couldn't help chuckling in his heart.Obviously he is still a child, but he calls others a child.Thinking about being called "Master" and "Sister" one by one too much, I really have some adult thoughts.

But what about yourself?
Before night fell, Su Xiaoluo began to play tricks and refused to leave, and found a slightly higher lee of the sand dune, spread out a blanket, and let both Pao Pao and A Yi sit on it.Because she hated Mu Zijin's indifferent attitude before, she deliberately put mushrooms around the blanket to prevent him from approaching.In this regard, Mu Zijin had no choice but to keep some distance between laughing and crying.

There is nothing good in the desert, but at night when there is no wind, the sky is extraordinarily clear and the stars are extraordinarily bright.Su Xiaoluo lay on the blanket with her head resting on the arms crossed above her head, temporarily forgetting her hunger and thirst.

"It's really beautiful." Su Xiaoluo sighed sincerely.

Bubble disagreed: "I don't know how many times better it is in the heavens."

"Are there stars in the heaven?" Su Xiaoluo wondered, "Isn't the heaven above the stars?"

"Well, how should I put it?" Bubbles tried to remember, "It should be below the heavens, it seems that there are also above... um... It's been too long, so I don't remember clearly. Let's take a look later. alright."

"It will take a long time." Su Xiaoluo stared at the twinkling stars above her head, not without feeling lost, "Besides, I don't seem to want to ascend to the heavens very much."

"Why?" Pao Pao sat up and looked at Su Xiaoluo with his head tilted, "Does the master hate Pao Pao?"

"No, why would I hate you?"

"Because Bubble belongs to the heavenly realm, Master, you said that you don't want to go to the heavenly realm..."

"Haha..." Su Xiaoluo couldn't help laughing seeing Pao Pao's aggrieved face, pulled his braids upside down, and said, "I just suddenly felt that there must be some powerful people in the heavens, and if I go there, I will only be a little girl." For the sake of it, it’s better to be free in the mortal world. Moreover, if you become a fairy, you will be an immortal monster. Isn’t it boring to do nothing all day long?”

Bubble scratched his head: "No..."

Su Xiaoluo pulled Bubble back down and lay down next to her: "But I really want to see what the stars in the sky look like."

Mu Zijin stood at the air vent, turned her head, and saw Su Xiaoluo staring at the sky devoutly, and all the twinkling stars were reflected in her eyes.On the contrary, I couldn't see what was going on with her specific expression. Did she really want to see it, or was she just saying it in passing?

How much can the same person change?

Mu Zijin turned his gaze to the sky, and he used to look at places that were nothing like ants, but now the land under his feet seemed infinitely large, as if he had become an ant-like existence.

A Yi has not spoken since Su Xiaoluo rejected him, and he is not angry with her, but just doesn't know what else to say at this time.Seeing Su Xiaoluo chatting and laughing with Pao Pao, he also wanted to blend in, but was afraid of being rejected again.He was afraid of being hated by Su Xiaoluo, so he could only quietly stay aside.To not cause trouble, as long as he can stay by her side, isn't that why he wants to come out with her?
The silence didn't last long, when he heard a faint voice, Bubble turned over and sat up again, because there was still some wind in the night, he couldn't hear it clearly.

"what sound?"

Su Xiaoluo also sat up, looked at the white spot of light in the distance, and asked suspiciously: "Is this the sound of a bell?"

There was no emotion in Mu Zijin's voice, he turned to Su Xiaoluo and said, "It should be someone you know."

"What?" Before Su Xiaoluo realized the meaning of Mu Zijin's words, she saw that the spot of light was very close. She finally saw it clearly, but she was even more puzzled, "Is it her?"
