Mutated Tao Chapter 25: Forest path
"Qiang~" The long sword collided with the book of heaven and made an extremely ear-piercing friction sound, causing the other people in the room to subconsciously cover their ears and take two steps back.
"I haven't even cut a mark. Changming's sword is not good. Isn't he a sword repairer? This sword should not be ordinary." Grabbing the hilt of the sword, swung it round and slashed down again.
Gritting his teeth and slashing several times, the situation finally changed, but this change did not come from the so-called heavenly book, but from the long sword in Li Huowang's hand.
With a sound of "铛~", the blade split into two from the impact, and the long sword turned into a broken sword.
Looking at the broken sword in his hand, Li Huowang was a little dazed, the weapon he just got was gone.
Looking around, Li Huowang quickly took a few steps, and snatched the sword from the dead Chang Ren. "Fortunately, I have a spare."
"Sa—" the long sword was sheathed, and Li Huowang circled around the book thinking about what to do next.
He originally planned to destroy this so-called heavenly book, but now it seems that there is something in this heavenly book, it is hard to say that it is not a treasure.
Since I have made up my mind not to give up on myself, it is naturally impossible to throw away such a valuable thing at will. "No matter what, just take it first, or take it to the **** shop for some money."
As for the unrealistic idea of becoming a fairy by relying on this thing, Li Huowang completely abandoned it. He has seen the fate of those who tried before, and he doesn't want to be the next one.
Li Huowang picked it up with difficulty and weighed it. The weight of the stone slab was much heavier than he had imagined, but it was within the acceptable range.
After wrapping the stone slab with a cloth, he put his back on his back, and said to the other people waiting at the side: "Let's go, let's get out of here."
The lamp oil was thrown into the stinky cave of Danyangzi, and the tongue of flame spread along the lamp oil on the ground, igniting everything in the house that could be lit, including Changming Changren and Xuanyuan on the ground.
The fire was so intense that Li Huowang realized after seeing the scene in front of him that human corpses are natural combustibles.
As they walked back along the original path, they gradually lit all the rooms. The scorching flames swayed and began to unite gradually, burning everything that could be burned in Qingfeng Temple, and blackening everything that could not be burned here.
"Ahem~" The thick smoke started to make others cough, and everyone started to speed up their pace.
After the three pillars of incense passed, everyone stood under the sun, silently looking at the entrance of Qingfengguan Cave, which was emitting thick smoke.
Thick smoke rolled and swayed straight up, covering all the darkness and evil in Qingfeng Temple, and disappeared into the bright sky.
Looking up, Li Huowang smiled again, turned around and walked towards the distant forest path with the long sword and stone slab on his back. "Let's go."
Other people carrying food followed suit, and Li Huowang had become their leader before they knew it.
Looking at the forest path gradually approaching in the distance, Li Huowang's mood is no longer depressed at this moment.
"Ah, this place looks very strange. I don't know what kind of people or things I will meet in the future. I am looking forward to it all of a sudden."
The sun shone on his face, and he breathed in the fresh air, his mood began to change to the good side.
"Brother Li, slow down, my eyes hurt."
Li Huowang turned his head to look, only to find that Bai Lingmiao was covering his eyes under the sunlight.
He walked over, held her face in his hands and observed it carefully, and was surprised to find that he could see the blood vessels behind the eyeballs from the center of the pupils of her eyes, and the pink was the color of the dark red blood vessels illuminated by light.
"This...should be some kind of defect, right?" Li Huowang guessed in his heart.
He is not a medical practitioner who doesn't understand these things, but he can guess some, because Li Huowang remembers that most of the elderly albinos who get fortune-telling massages are blind.
It seems that Bai Lingmiao's disease will cause defects in the eyes, which are much more fragile than ordinary people's eyes.
This is not possible, Li Huowang cut a strip of cloth from the hem of his blue Taoist robe, and gently covered Bai Lingmiao's eyes. "In the future, as long as the sun rises, you will be covered."
"But...so I can't see."
"It's okay, I'll hold you." Li Huowang grabbed Bai Lingmiao's soft right hand and led the others towards the woods.
Bai Lingmiao staggered a few times, then trotted after Li Huowang.

"Duoduoduo~" Lu Zhuangyuan, with a wrinkled face, took his own tobacco pipe and beat it **** the theater box.
After knocking out all the stuck black tobacco, he took out new tobacco from the pouch and put it in, and lit it with a tinder box.
After taking a good sip, he shouted to Linzi in the direction of the horse's head: "Xiaowazi, are you ready?"
"It's coming soon!" There was a boy's response from the other side.
"The lazy donkey poops a lot, and it's so slow to poop. Those who don't know think that I have treated you badly and let you eat Guanyin soil." Lu Zhuangyuan was dissatisfied with his young son while smoking a dry cigarette .
He moved his eyes to the back of the car, and looked at his entire theater troupe on the forest path. Except for a carriage pulling costumes and musical instrument boxes
There are also three members of his eldest son's family, and two distant nephews brought out from the village. Although the team may be small, these are all his family's possessions that he has managed to save over the years.
Relying on this small theater troupe, when the times are not good this year, the whole family can be fed.
"Father, drink water and eat steamed buns." Lu Juren handed the food and water hyacinth to his father.
"What to eat, what to eat before the meal! Did you pick up food for nothing? Do you know what the price of food is now? Your daughter is two years old, and you still treat you like a baby! Why are you so unreasonable? Sensible!"
Being scolded all over the face, Lu Juren was not annoyed, Hanhan smiled and stepped back, letting his daughter-in-law put away the things in his hand.
"What's the matter, have you been scolded again? You are a bitch, looking for scolding." Luo Juanhua put the food back in the car, and teased the baby girl sitting on the box with her fingers.
"If you scold me twice, you won't lose a piece of meat. If you scold me, you can scold me. Ever since my mother died, my father has always been like this."
"Hey, master, what I told you last night, did you tell dad exactly?"
"Let's talk about it later, I haven't arrived recently, and my money is tight." When this topic was mentioned, Lu Juren's face became bitter.
"Tsk! Don't you even have the money to buy cloth for your granddaughter to make clothes? She's wearing costumes now."
"Costumes...actually can..."
"Ahhh! Ghost!!!" A terrified scream interrupted the conversation between the two couples, and the atmosphere of the whole troupe suddenly became tense.
Not long after, the others saw a naked young boy rushing out of the forest crying for his father and mother, and threw himself into Lu Zhuangyuan's arms.
"What the hell! Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight! Put on your pants quickly!"
Although Lu Zhuangyuan reprimanded his youngest son, he still kept Lu Xiucai behind him, clenched the cigarette rod in his hand, and looked in the direction of Lin Zi vigilantly.
The figure inside shakes, and it seems that someone is coming.
