After I traveled through the book, I gained a humanoid pendant

Chapter 260

As usual, there was no response.

Ni Yangzhou found a suitable foothold above the valley and put down his silver-blue sword. The young man slowly walked through the forest, which was a mixture of deep and shallow. The mosses on the stones were covered into long, moist carpets, like the pulse of the valley that had been beating steadily for many years.

Gradually fog rose in the forest. At dusk, the sun set, leaving only a ray of evening light, vaguely swaying the mottled light and shadow.

There was no wind and the whole forest seemed to be immersed in fog.

The young man walked for a long time, and there was no movement except for some small mountain animals that were startled by the sound.

Only the young man walking alone in the valley forest is like the tip of a pen that scratches the silent and dusty spine of a book.

At night, Ni Yangzhou found a very sturdy tree, somersaulted onto a branch in three or two steps, took out his master's old belt and tied it around his waist, meditated all night, and finally fell into a shallow sleep at dawn.

Half asleep and half awake, he felt an itch near his ear.

It seemed as if something was vibrating in the wind, scratching his earlobe with every stroke.

Then the itchiness disappeared, but Ni Yangzhou had not woken up yet.

A furry thing fell to his ear and the young man suddenly opened his eyes.

It was surrounded by orange and white stripes, and was thick and strong, with the tip of its tail hooked. When Ni Yangzhou opened his eyes, it was leaning over to scan the young man's face.

Ni Yangzhou narrowed his eyes, scratched his face, and removed the long orange hair on his cheek.

"Meow--"

Crouching on a branch right above my head was a chubby orange cat with round almond-shaped eyes and long whiskers. It was leaning forward with a look of great interest.

Ni Yangzhou scratched his face again and greeted, "Hello to you too, Big Li Nu."

It’s really big.

The young man estimated that the orange cat was half the length of a person when it was lying down. If it stretched out its limbs completely, it would be almost the size of an adult.

Although it is big, it is not as big as a tiger. Its face is round, its nose is not prominent, it has no black spots, and it does not look ferocious. It is just the appearance of an enlarged domestic cat.

I guess it's a raccoon spirit in cultivation.

The young man was not annoyed by being woken up. He took out a roasted wild boar leg from his storage ring and handed it to the orange cat with both hands:

"Do you understand me? I mean no harm. I'm looking for a beautiful female demon in human form. Can you help me? This is for you."

The conditions and rewards were explained clearly, so even the little monsters were not afraid of being cheated or slaughtered. After receiving the benefits, they expanded the Niyangzhou Animal Monster Hunting Team.

The cat first sniffed with its pink and white nose, its whiskers trembling slightly, and sniffed up and down several times. It tentatively licked it with its barbed tongue and scraped off a layer of meat.

"It's delicious, and it's smeared with wild honey."

This was the secret recipe taught to him by the black bear demon he met after he separated from his master.

The orange cat rolled the shredded meat into his mouth, stretched out his paw with one hand and pushed it. The wild boar leg bone rolled half a circle. It was neither dry nor fat, but shiny. The cat looked very satisfied.

Ni Yangzhou saw the big cat picking up the pig leg, looking at the young man, and then jumping lightly from the high branch to the bottom of the tree. It was covered by the green leaves and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Is this gone?

The young man shrugged his shoulders and was not in a hurry. There were little goblins like this who were unwilling to approach humans. After all, their magic power was low and they were not as smart as human monks, so they could just run away.

Just think of it as doing one good deed a day.

The air was cold in the early morning and the fog had not yet completely dispersed. The golden sunlight was like strands of silk, unable to penetrate the fog and only transformed into small spots of light in the air.

Ni Yangzhou took out the master’s communication card from the green pendant and injected spiritual power into it: “Master, I was in the valley today and met a very beautiful cat.

In the early morning the fog is thick, like a green peak. "

Still no response.

The young man waited for a while, put the jade token into the jade pendant, then put the jade pendant with a red string neatly into his lapel, and began to untie the belt around his waist.

Before I could untie it, a scream was heard behind me.

"what?"

"Who?"

The young man suddenly turned around and saw a red blur emerging from the shadows of the trees. A fair face emerged from the mist, with sparkling cherry beads on the ears.

"Hongying?"

It is indeed the cherry tree spirit that has not been seen for several years.

"Yangzhou?"

Hongying is still the same as before, without any change. For an ancient tree, eight years are just a few years of prosperity and decline.

"You..." Hongying did not maintain the appearance of a child in the valley, but looked like an adult. At this moment, she recognized Ni Yangzhou at a glance, but her face was full of surprise, and she said in disbelief:

"Can this still happen?"

"What kind?"

"Aiya!" Hongying pointed at the belt around the young man's waist, "Even if he is your master, he can't force you!"

……

"What are you talking about? What compulsion?"

Hongying rushed over to untie the boy's feet, but suddenly realized that the two people seemed to no longer be talking about the same thing. She covered her mouth fiercely, then quickly put down her hands and said, "No, it's okay. It's just that even your master can't force you to sleep on the tree."

"No, no, I volunteered."

Ni Yangzhou hadn't seen his friend for a long time. He took note of removing the belt and put it back into the jade pendant. "My master went to the northern border and hasn't come back yet. Why are you here?"

Hongying knew she had made a fool of herself. She covered her red face and used the tree branch to support herself to come to the young man. She looked him over, patted the tree trunk and said, "This is my real body! I thought you came here specifically to see me."

Hongying pointed to the corner under the tree with her slender fingertips: "Look, that's where Haoping passed by and watered me."

Ni Yangzhou originally didn't want to inquire about other people's emotional entanglements, but Hongying loved to talk.

"And Yangzhou, let me tell you, when we met just now, I thought you were the same as me!"

The young man did not stand up, but followed the girl and sat back on the thick branch, feeling the rough lines on his palms, thinking that a cherry tree could grow so vigorous and majestic.

"What's the same?"

Hongying smiled: "Master-disciple love~"

Ni Yangzhou was shocked. He had never thought about the relationship between him and Yan Congzhi in this way. He said awkwardly, "My master and I are both men."

Before Hongying could grumble, Ni Yangzhou asked back, "You and Haoping..."

"Hehe, great progress!"

Ni Yangzhou listened attentively: "How far has it progressed?"

Hongying said happily: "I have become the disciple who is best at watering under Master Haoping! I have been praised seven times in the past few years! Seven times in total!"

The young man was a little stunned, and didn't know why he had to emphasize "entirely" seven times. He just took a breath and said, "Then how did you get back to where your original body is?"

When Hongying mentioned this, she sighed and lowered her eyebrows. She didn't look as energetic as before. "I have worked hard for eight years and have been praised seven times. I can't get one praise in a year. I want to change my way. I heard that Haoping and Guanmiao Zhenren are looking for a magic weapon. I will come down to try it too. I hope I can help him."

Ni Yangzhou was a little confused and asked, "How did you know that we were looking for a magic weapon? Did everyone know about it?"

"No." The cherry on Hongying's earlobe shook.

"...I overheard your master talking to Hao Ping."
