Chapter 41 A Long Night
Kieran fell asleep, but not completely.
After all, he had a great respect for the Hengduan Mountains, so how could he dare to sleep unprotected in the wild?
As soon as there was movement on the ground, he noticed something unusual and woke up.
"What's going on?" The tree hole was still shaking continuously, and Kieran was a little panicked, "Is there an earthquake?"
But he didn't have to worry about it for too long. Soon, the clear sound of the herd stamping on the ground gave him the answer.
"Rumble..."
It was obvious that a large group of monsters ran past the giant tree where they were, heading towards somewhere in the forest.
The beasts didn't seem to notice the tree hole. Qin Ran's frightened heart gradually calmed down, and then he paid attention to the causes and consequences of the beasts' actions. He listened carefully, and it seemed that the direction the beasts were heading towards... was the snake biting him. The direction the leopard left.
What kind of monsters were there in the herd? There was no light in the darkness. Kieran could not see clearly, but he always felt that something was wrong.
The keen perception brought by his spiritual consciousness told him that the state of these monster beasts was not right and they were a little violent.
Of course, although he felt something was wrong, Kieran still had no intention of checking. Walking in the dark in a primeval forest is no different than seeking death.
Not long after, the herd of beasts completely passed by, and the rumble of the galloping beasts disappeared in the distance. The darkness suddenly became silent, and the original noise of the forest also disappeared due to the herd of beasts. In the darkness, there was only the sound of Li Shiyin's breathing, as if by the herd of beasts. Never been here.
The night in the primeval forest shouldn't be so quiet. Something went wrong in the Hengduan Mountains... Kieran didn't dare to sleep anymore. He stared outside, but there was only darkness outside and he couldn't see anything.
"Perhaps it's time to practice a pupil technique." He thought to himself.
The tree hole was very cramped, and Li Shiyin felt very uncomfortable sleeping while sitting up with her legs bent. She suddenly twisted her body, and after struggling for a long time, she finally found a comfortable position, smacked her lips, and her breathing gradually became even.
After Li Shiyin finished his troubles, Qin Ran continued to look outside warily. This girl knew how to find a position, with her upper body lying in his arms, her head resting on his thigh, curled up, even though it was not as good as a bed, she actually fell asleep on her side in the tree hole.
The girl's body fragrance filled the entire tree hole. The smell was warm and sweet, and it smelled very good. Qin Ran sniffed lightly and felt the girl's soft body on his thighs. It was inexplicable and strange, in this dark primeval forest. , he felt a sense of peace... a feeling of home.
Living in a primeval forest, there was darkness, monsters, and danger outside the tree hole, but at this moment, Qin Ran felt a wonderful sense of comfort like snuggling up in bed and listening to the sound of rain on a rainy night.
"Is it because of her?" he asked himself in his mind.
No one gave him an answer, but he began to enjoy the fragrance. He stroked Li Shiyin's hair with his left hand and put his right hand on Li Shiyin's back. He gently hugged the girl's soft body to make her sleep more comfortable.
Qin Ran looked at the darkness outside again, and suddenly he no longer felt the danger inside.
He began to think that before Li Shiyin came, his life was boring. Although he had made plans for every step in the future, which could enable him to safely conceive and reach the Nascent Soul stage, such a life was really too boring. That was He was too afraid of the world and made an escape plan;
After Li Shiyin came, although everything was disrupted, the center of his life was entirely on Li Shiyin. Little by little, his future was no longer clear, but... he felt that there was hope.
"Did I raise a daughter or a wife?" He teased himself in his mind, "Did he adopt a disciple..."
Qin Ran began to recall the plot of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in his mind, um, is this a gender-swap version? In this case, wouldn't he be raped by a certain slut...
Huh!
Suddenly, a light lit up in the darkness outside. The light was very dazzling. Qin Ran closed his eyes subconsciously, then raised his eyes and looked over. There was something glowing under the giant tree over there, vaguely, looking like the shape of Ganoderma lucidum or ginseng.
"Elixir of longevity?" Although he has never seen it before, this is what Qin Ran's mind told him, and then he felt pleasantly surprised that he, Qin, actually picked up treasures from heaven and earth.
He stood up hurriedly and wanted to pick it up, but sat down the next moment...
But it wasn't because of anything else, just because his thigh was numb from being pressed by Li Shiyin.
But this sitting made his mind clear. Not to mention that it couldn't be some kind of longevity medicine, even if it was, given his character, he would never just pick it up. At least, he would make some plans first.
It was by no means some magic medicine. When he woke up, it was definitely a trap. He had been deceived unconsciously just now.
"Huh..." Qin Ran exhaled softly, secretly using Danfeng's unknown formula to stabilize his mind.
After a while, the bright light revealed the light and shadow of other medicinal materials. Qin Ran was unmoved. After a while, the shapes of swords and medicinal cauldrons appeared inside. Qin Ran remained unmoved. After a while, The light and shadow slowly fade away.
A beautiful and enchanting woman absorbed the light and was revealed. She was wearing only a few strands of clothing. She had snow-white skin, a perfect face, plump breasts, a seductive waist, perky hips, slender legs, and everything on her body. Not perfect.
The light and shadow converged towards her, and she turned sideways, opening her tail like a peacock, revealing her graceful figure, seducing the soul.
Qin Ran no longer recited the mantra silently, but recited it out loud: "Heaven and earth are like me, chaotic and enlightened. I am the universe..."
But despite this, he still did not stop his brother from rebelling, and stood up with his pants on; after a while, he felt the heat in his nose again, and blood flowed out.
He wanted to get up again and have sex with the woman under the tree, but he held his hand on the hole and still did not get up.
The woman stood under the tree for a long time, and seeing that Qin Ran still had no intention of coming out, the light was completely extinguished. In the darkness, a charming and moving voice came with a disdainful word:
"A coward with lustful thoughts but no courage."
Before the light and shadow faded, Qin Ran saw the woman turn around, and several fluffy tails grew on her buttocks, and then she leaned down, hair grew on her body, turned into a fox shape, and jumped into the depths of darkness.
"It turned out to be a vixen!" He breathed a sigh of relief, "It's already five tails."
A five-tailed demon fox, at least the strength of the early stage of the Nascent Soul.
As for why the vixen didn't break through the formation and enter the tree hole directly... Qin Ran was not very clear.
As for whether Qin Ran could resist the temptation of the vixen, the answer was no.
Then why could he bear not to go out? Because he was afraid.
That's why the vixen said he was a "coward with lust but no courage". Her charm had worked, but he just wouldn't go out, so she left directly without wasting her efforts.
The vixen left, the danger was eliminated, but...
Some dangers were not eliminated.
His brother seemed to be very energetic and was reluctant to fall asleep. Qin Ran kept taking deep breaths and even recited "If the heart is as clear as ice, the sky will not fall", but it was useless. The girl's fragrance that he felt warm just now turned into some kind of deadly poison.
Until...
Li Shiyin turned over and hit him with an elbow.
"Ah!"
Qin Ran cried out in pain, and then the whole world was honest.
This night was bizarre and extremely dangerous. It was really long. Qin Ran waited for a long time, but it was not until dawn. He kept his nerves tense and stared with his eyes alert.
It was not until a long time later that the darkness in the forest gradually became clearer, and the world became clearer and clearer, covered with a layer of gray, and then there was light.
Finally, it was dawn.
