Chapter six hundred and forty-two birds facing the phoenix
This is the leopard known as the mountain god in this mountain, in a direct confrontation with the fragrant demon tree known as the tree god, but this tree god has lost its original style and is lying quietly in the forest. Accept the destiny.
The old man and Lingling looked at Xiaobai's movements in confusion. How powerful is this little thing's claws, and how sharp are the gleaming nails. This is definitely a combination of speed and strength. Otherwise, just relying on sharpness can Nails cannot cut through such a tough branch.
After a while, dozens of branches in front of Xiaobai had been cut off, and the red light in its eyes had dimmed. It opened its mouth and gasped hard. It was obvious that it had used all its strength just now. It seems that the little flower was wrapped in the branches at that time. , it also worked so hard to cut off more than a hundred branches. No wonder it looked so wilted later.
At this time, Xiaobai looked in front of him with dimmed eyes, sniffed hard a few times, then turned his head and called out to his grandfather and Lingling in a low voice, calling them over.
Grandpa and Lingling hurriedly took a few steps forward, and saw a bare black tree trunk exposed in front of Xiaobai. A fist-sized light yellow ball at the top of the trunk was lying there quietly, and its golden color was particularly eye-catching. It forms a sharp contrast with the surrounding black tree trunks and branches, and looks quite strange.
It turns out that Xiaobai just cut off a branch just to reveal this yellow ball. "Grandpa, what is that? How can there be such a beautiful yellow ball on the black tree." Lingling was surprised at the side. asked
Grandpa lowered his head to observe the yellow ball carefully, shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, could it be the fruit of this fragrant magic tree?" He walked over and gently pried the bottom of the ball with the saber in his hand, and the yellow ball Then it broke away from the black tree trunk and rolled down. Lingling quickly stretched out her hand to catch the furry yellow ball in her hand.
Grandpa reached out and took the yellow ball over. He felt that the ball was extremely soft. He smelled it and a faint fragrance overflowed from the yellow ball. "Hey, why is this fragrance different from the fragrance on the branches just now? This fragrance smells like It seems to be similar to the scent of that piece of snake treasure." Lingling sniffed beside her and exclaimed in surprise.
Grandpa was also surprised to smell the very faint aroma emitted by the yellow ball, and said to Lingling: "Bring a branch over here, let's compare and smell it." Lingling bent down and picked up a freshly cut piece of Xiaobai. I picked up a broken branch, put the broken branch to my nose and smelled it vigorously, then my body shook violently.
Grandpa grabbed her arm and shouted: "You silly girl, this is a branch that has just been cut off. The poison inside has not been released yet. How can it smell like this?"
Lingling nodded drowsily, her eyelids falling downwards. Grandpa quickly put the yellow ball in his hand on the branch, stretched out his hand and pulled the animal skin bag behind him to get the detoxification medicine from it, but he just couldn't reach it. He stopped halfway, reached out and picked up the yellow ball, put it in front of his nose and smelled it hard, with a hint of joy on his face, then he put the yellow ball in front of Lingling's nose and said loudly: "Smell hard."
The dazed Lingling closed her eyes and was shaky. She had obviously entered a semi-conscious state. The old man frowned upon seeing this, raised the saber in his right hand and lightly pierced the yellow ball with the tip of the knife. A strong wave of The fragrance immediately sprang out from the breach and went straight to Lingling's mouth and nose.
"Hey, what happened to me just now?" Lingling suddenly opened her eyes and asked in surprise, shook her head vigorously, and then took two more breaths of the refreshing aroma, and her swaying body suddenly stabilized. At this time, Xiaobai Smelling this refreshing aroma, it also jumped up to Lingling's shoulders. She stretched her head and inhaled hard. Naturally, her sensitive nose would not miss anything good.
Grandpa didn't bother to answer Lingling's question. He looked at Lingling who quickly recovered. With a happy face, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the yellow ball, sealing the small hole just punctured by the tip of the knife, and quickly put it in the animal skin bag from behind. He took out a brown snakeskin bag, carefully put the yellow ball in his hand into it, and then sealed the bag tightly with thread. He couldn't let the essence of this good thing leak out for no reason.
After the old man finished all this, he turned around and said to Lingling with a smile: "You silly girl, you know that the branches are poisonous and you put your nose up to smell them directly."
At this moment, a pleasant "chirping" sound came from far away, and a group of birds with bright feathers suddenly flew towards the clearing in the forest from all directions, gathering in the sky above them with a melodious chirp. hovering.
"Ah, so beautiful." Lingling suddenly exclaimed when she saw so many beautiful birds. The old man also raised his face and stared at this rare sight, not knowing why.
The birds in the clearing flashed their beautiful wings and rose and fell over the forest floor. They approached the black Fragrant Demon Tree on the ground, and suddenly let out a scream and flew upwards. They seemed to be very afraid of this black monster, but they seemed unable to resist it. He leaned down as if seducing some kind of temptation.
"Oh, I understand, they are showing off to the phoenix, hehe hehe, my aunt is here." Lingling suddenly shouted in surprise, took two steps forward, and raised her face with joy. Looking into the sky, his eyes closed happily, his smiling face was filled with a kind of pride and joy, as if he was accepting the worship of the birds.
At this time, Xiaobai had also jumped onto the dense branches of the Fragrant Demon Tree, raising his head and staring into the sky. He seemed to be enjoying the joy of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix just like Lingling.
Suddenly, "poof", a black dot suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the tip of Lingling's nose. Lingling suddenly opened her eyes, reached out and touched her nose, then lowered her head and looked at her hands.
"Stinky bird, is there anyone who worships the phoenix like this?" Lingling suddenly raised her face and shouted into the air with her face flushed. Grandpa quickly lowered his eyes in shock and saw Lingling vigorously smashing a pool of black stuff on her hand, with her nose It was also dark above.
"Bird shit." Grandpa suddenly laughed "hahahaha", and the laughter full of vitality echoed in the forest for a long time. Lingling, who thought she was a phoenix, blushed and jumped up high and waved her hands in the air. He shouted: "Stinky bird, come down, how can you treat my aunt like this?"
When Xiaobai heard Lingling's cry, he turned around and saw something on her face. He suddenly stood up, grinned and laughed loudly. With the laughter, his body suddenly rolled down from the smooth branch. , it rolled on the ground and ran to Lingling, stood up and pointed at Lingling's painted face with one paw, and continued to laugh "quacking".
When the birds in the sky heard the hearty laughter and Ling Ling's cries below, they screamed and flew up into the air, but they still fluttered their beautiful feathers and hovered high in the air and couldn't bear to leave.
