"Kaka..."
There was a crisp sound among the ruins, and two monks, one large and one small, emerged from it again. First, they carefully looked at Xi Zhou to make sure there was no danger, and then they completely emerged from the hole.
"Cuckoo..." The little monk's stomach growled unsatisfactorily at this moment, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Five days had passed since the last time they hunted those scaled beasts, and the two of them had to go hunting again.
"Don't worry Xuankong, we will definitely be able to get enough food today."
"Yes, I understand, senior brother Xuanming." The young monk nodded obediently.
It turns out that the senior brother's name is Xuan Ming, and the junior brother's name is Xuan Liang. Of course, it was Xuan Ming who gave the name.
Looking at his twenty-year-old junior brother, who was only the size of a twelve-year-old child, Xuan Ming felt a little distressed in his heart. All this was due to lack of food. He was originally responsible for cultivation and had no idea what hunger was. After everything was lost, he also needed to eat like a mortal. The process of finding food was extremely difficult. Lingshan was desolate and uninhabited for thousands of miles. Fortunately, there were some mutated beasts.
After losing his cultivation, he could only try his best to catch some smaller ferocious beasts. Even so, he often failed. He was lucky enough to catch two or three times a month, so Xuan Liang had not eaten many since he was a child. After eating for the first time, his body is as good as that of a child.
The two of them walked through the ruins very cautiously. This time, in addition to looking for food, they were looking for anyone alive. Xuan Ming had been coming here like this for twenty years. He didn't understand why everyone disappeared. Only he and Xuan Liang survived, and he wanted to know the answer.
The two left the place full of ruins along a familiar path and entered a dense forest with fallen leaves. In order to survive, collecting firewood was also a necessary task.
Perhaps it was because he left the cramped stone cave and came to a vast place. Xuan Liang seemed a little happy. He even forgot about hunger and happily ran through the mountains and forests.
"Slow down, don't step on our trap." Xuan Ming reminded.
"I know." The little monk responded hurriedly and continued towards the river. He put a net in the river last time, hoping to catch some fish. The deliciousness of the fish soup really left him with endless aftertaste.
Looking at the lively junior brother, Xuan Ming couldn't help but shook his head. Fortunately, there were no dangerous beasts here, otherwise he would not dare to let him run wild.
After a while, the two came to a river. The water was clear and gurgling, and fish jumped out of the water from time to time.
Xuan Liang rolled up his trouser legs and walked down to the river impatiently. He reached out and groped for the fishing net that had been put into the river. Soon he found the end of the net and was pulled up by him.
Soon, Xuan Liang's eyes were filled with disappointment. He saw that a huge hole had been torn in the middle of the already somewhat tattered fishing net. Not to mention the fish, there were not even any debris.
"Senior brother..." Xuan Liang looked at Xuan Ming on the shore with a sad face.
"Hey, come up quickly, don't catch a cold." Xuan Ming said with a sigh.
At this moment, Xuan Ming's ears twitched slightly. Years of survival have made him very alert. Although he has no cultivation, he has not forgotten the martial arts techniques. Over the years, Yi Yi has been training himself, and his skills are as good as those innate in the martial arts world. Compare.
He grabbed Xuan Liang, who had just landed on the shore, jumped behind a big tree, and covered Xuan Liang's mouth at the same time.
"Bang...bang..."
The ground shook, and Xuan Ming's heart sank. He could imagine a huge creature walking towards them.
In the two years after the disaster just happened, there were many mutated giant beasts near Lingshan. Xuanming would naturally not forget the horror. At that time, Lingshan and the corpses around it were all devoured by these giant beasts. Just left.
Xuan Liang also felt the vibrations coming from the ground, and his body couldn't help but tremble. Xuan Ming quickly pressed his head to comfort him, and he had already secretly decided in his heart to wait a moment, lure the giant beast away, and let his junior brother escape.
"Bang...bang..."
The footsteps of the giant beast got closer and closer, and then stopped not far from the big tree where the two were hiding. The two felt very nervous.
"Huchi..."
The unknown giant beast panted, seemed to smell the scent of the two, and then walked towards the two.
Soon, a large shadow appeared in front of him.
Xuan Ming's eyes condensed, and he reached out with his right hand to his back and took out a simple knife. Then he grabbed Xuan Liang with his left hand and threw it back hard.
"Junior brother, run quickly."
"ah..."
Then he jumped up from the big tree with a big sword and slashed at the huge body.
"when..."
"Danglang..."
“......”
Xuan Ming's knife seemed to be on metal, and the knife instantly shattered into several pieces, leaving him stunned.
"Huchi..."
The giant beast's breathing woke him up from the shock. Xuan Ming slowly raised his head, and what he saw was a huge bull's head. A pair of big copper bell-like eyes were narrowly looking at him.
"Cow?" Looking at the cow in front of him, Xuan Ming was stunned. Only then did he realize that the cow in front of him was different from those mutated beasts. Its eyes were not black.
"Eh?"
Then a voice came from the cow's back, and a little girl poked her head out from the cow's back, blinking at Xuan Ming with her big eyes.
"People...people..." Xuan Ming murmured. He saw a girl, the first living person he had met in twenty years except Xuan Liang.
"Why are you cutting off Niu Er's horns?" There was Mengmeng on the cow's back.
"Uh..." Xuan Ming didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Brother, woo woo..."
At this moment, Xuan Liang ran up from behind crying and hugged Xuan Ming, who had just frightened him.
"Hey, why don't you say anything? Why are you cutting my cow?" Mengmeng pouted and said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I, I thought it was a mutated beast." Xuan Ming apologized quickly while protecting Xuan Liang behind him.
Mengmeng looked at the two of them, then rolled her eyes and said.
"Are you monks?"
When Xuan Ming heard this, his body suddenly trembled, and then he nodded slowly. Monk, such a familiar title, he had never heard it before.
Xuan Ming couldn't help but clasp his hands together, and Xuan Liang followed suit.
“Kozo Genmei.”
"My name is Xuan Liang." The two introduced themselves.
"Giggle...he is such a monk. Come with me. I have something to ask you." Mengmeng said with a smile. After saying that, he patted Niu Er and turned around to leave.
Xuan Ming was stunned for a moment, then he grabbed his junior brother and followed him. It was rare to see a living person, so he was very curious about the identity of the other person.
"Brother, the net..." Xuan Liang pointed to the broken net still on the shore.
"Come back and get it later," Xuan Ming said.
In the blink of an eye, the cow disappeared. Xuan Ming could only quickly chase the path that the bull had taken. After a while, he came to an open space by the river. He saw a bonfire here. Several people were sitting in front of the bonfire. A man, two women, and the little girl just now.
Xuan Ming looked at a few people in shock, not for anything else but because of the clothes these people were wearing. They were very gorgeous and did not look like people who had suffered a natural disaster. Then their eyes fell on the bonfire. There was a large pot on the table, and bursts of meaty aroma came from inside.
"Gurgling..." Xuanliang's stomach automatically growled again after smelling the fragrance.
"What are you doing standing there, come here quickly, my brother has something to ask you." Mengmeng shouted with her hands on her waist.
Xuan Ming came back to his senses, and then slowly walked over with his junior brother in hand. When he got closer, he discovered that one of the men was very handsome and noble in temperament, and the other was bald and wearing strange clothes. The two women were so beautiful that they were as beautiful as the sky. Like a mysterious woman.
"I've... met a few of them." Xuan Ming bowed.
Xuan Liang was a little shy and hid behind his senior brother. He had never seen a stranger since he was a child, let alone two beautiful women.
"Don't be nervous, are you a Buddhist disciple?" Li Daoyi asked.
"Yes, ah no, it used to be, but now Buddhism is gone." Xuan Ming stuttered.
"Can you tell me what happened here?" Li Daoyi asked.
When Xuan Ming heard this, he looked at Li Daoyi with some confusion and didn't understand why he asked.
But looking at the other person's questioning eyes, it seemed that he really didn't know anything about the disaster. Xuan Ming suppressed his confusion and began to explain.
After about a stick of incense, Xuan Ming told everything he saw and heard. In fact, he didn't know much.
"Oh? You mean the black dust-like powder that makes people go crazy after getting it?" Li Daoyi asked.
"Yes, brothers are like monsters. Their eyes are red and they bite people when they see them. If it weren't for that Buddha light, I..." Xuan Ming nodded with some fear.
At this time, Li Daoyi looked around thoughtfully. Everything around him seemed to have lost its color. Although it was daytime, the sun could not be seen in the sky, and the whole world could not feel a trace of aura. This was also the reason why Xuan Ming lost his color. The reason for cultivation.
"According to this, you should have been contaminated with that black powder at that time. Why didn't you mutate?" Li Daoyi asked.
"I...I don't know. Junior Brother Xuan Liang has not mutated. When I found him, he was covered in black powder." Xuan Ming said.
"Come here." Li Dao waved.
Then the two bodies were wrapped in a force and floated towards Li Daoyi involuntarily.
"Magic..." Xuan Ming's eyes widened immediately. Li Daoyi ignored them and reached out to hold their arms respectively, and a stream of magic power poured into their bodies.
Xuan Ming felt the flow of mana in his body and opened his eyes wide. How could it be possible that the man in front of him still had mana.
Xuan Liang looked at Li Daoyi curiously. He felt that the flowing thing in his body made him very comfortable.
After a while, Li Daoyi let go of his hand and withdrew his magic power.
"They are all actually Wu Guo divine bodies." Li Daoyi said slowly.
"Wugou Divine Body? What is that?" Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but ask.
