I am pretending to be a villain in the world of cultivating immortals

"Thousands of years ago, the demon hunters were at their peak, and the reason for their decline is mostly because of this garland crane..."

This time Zhou Ke didn't open the letter in his arms, because this story has been passed down from generation to generation in the demon hunter clan, and she has long been familiar with it.

It is rumored that when the immortal sage first entered the sacred forest, he encountered a barrier demon blocking the way in the snow mountain.

This demon is not bad by nature, but loves to play tricks on people, so he casts a demonic method to bring in a thick fog, which makes the mountains shrouded in thick fog all day long, and the sky and the earth cannot distinguish colors, leaving only dazzling white, which burns the eyes of the immortal.

Coincidentally, not only Xiansheng was trapped by this fog, but also a Garland Crane whose wings were injured and could not fly.

On the way, the immortal sage heard the crowing of the crane, and couldn't bear the death of the crane, so he healed its wound.

In order to repay the kindness, the Garland Crane promised to serve as a guide for the Immortal Sage for a few days and act as his eyes.In this way, one person and one crane entered the deepest part of the sacred forest.

Even when the fairy sage and the demon ancestor Zhaoli were discussing the Tao, the garland crane stood aside and listened. From this moment of enlightenment, spiritual wisdom was born and soared to the ninth heaven with the fairy sage.

Unexpectedly, the high place is too cold, and the garland crane, which has become a fairy bird, doesn't like the desolation and desertedness of the fairyland.

It bid farewell to the immortal sage and returned to the homeland of Tianxuan Kingdom, and gave the method of cultivation to the clansmen, so that the crane clan could give birth to garlands and colorful feathers.

Because the story of the fairy sage ascending from a mortal body spread among the world, people all followed his way of seeking immortality and wanted to live forever.

A few monks who were rescued by the immortal saint and escaped from the mouth of the monster by chance saw that it was profitable, so they pretended to be onlookers and lied that the immortal saint's ascension was because he unintentionally ate the meat of some ancient monster beast, so he stood upright. Immortal.

For a while, the transactions related to demon meat became more and more frequent on the black market, and the line of demon hunters became famous because of this.

But this ill-gotten wealth is like flowing water, and soon the deception of these people hunting monsters and selling them to mortals for cooking was uncovered.The big demons in the demon world came to the world to seek revenge one after another, and almost wiped out the lineage of the demon hunters.

Among them was only a monk surnamed Zhou, because of his poor cultivation, he had never caught a monster in his life.

And the two worlds of fairy and demon, which have always been incompatible with each other, also fought for three days and nights for this, blood flowing into rivers beside the sea and sky.

After the turmoil subsided, the strong men of the two worlds all reflected on themselves, wished for peace and made an agreement not to offend each other.

Unexpectedly, the ancestors of the Zhou family who had been mingling among the monster hunters for a while, could no longer hunt monsters to make a living, so they set their minds on the Garland Crane.

He found Mr. Huaben, and asked them to exaggerate the fact that the garland crane guided the immortal saint to ascend, and in order not to get into trouble, he released the news that as long as he brought the feathers of the crane clan, mortals could be infected with the fairy machine and prolong their lives.

People's desires are so greedy, they forget the blood debt in their hands in a blink of an eye.

When the trend started, the princes and nobles of various countries, as well as the princes and ladies of rich families, all competed to be proud of wearing crane feathers.

The ancestors of the Zhou family tasted the benefits, and he recruited many disciples, so he was no longer satisfied with just selling people a cheap crane feather.

So they came up with a new way to make money, which was to pluck off all the most beautiful colorful feathers on the crane's head to make a garland.

In order to keep the colorful feathers as complete as possible, every time they catch a crane, they will peel off the colorful feathers on the top of the crane's head, including its skin.

In this way, those cranes will not die, and they can also seek more benefits from it.

If things go on like this, the Garland Crane family has been completely killed.But the retribution was not good, and the people who had worn the corolla all contracted strange diseases and died strangely one after another.

The garland cranes got a notorious reputation because of this, they could not satisfy people's desires, and the fairy birds became demons.

The ancestors of the Zhou family saw that something was wrong, so they fled Tianxuan overnight, and since then they have become a bereaved dog in incognito.

Later generations recorded that people only thought that the garland cranes were exterminated, but they didn't want them to survive, and fled into the forest of gods and never reappeared.

Zhou Ke looked at the group of cranes in front of her, and she sighed a little unbearably, "These cranes have seen their clansmen screaming in pain and could not be rescued, so naturally they want their enemies to pay the same price."

Hearing the tragedy, everyone was stunned.

Yu Huaiyin turned to look at Liang Chu, "Is the wreath we made before still there?"

Liang Chi reacted, he put his hand on the storage bag and changed his fingering, a corolla of flowers and leaves of different colors appeared in the open space.

"The ancients said that cutting your hair is like cutting off your head. Let's pay back all the debts owed in the past." Yu Huaiyin reminded Zhou Ke.

Immediately afterwards, he summoned the Xiyin Sword, and took advantage of the situation to cut off a wisp of ink scattered on his shoulder and put it in his palm.

"Is this the immortal?" Zhou Ke didn't know his intentions, so he just watched quietly.

Yu Huaiyin stretched out his hand, which immediately caused a commotion among the cranes. The leader of the garland crane croaked violently. It was originally pecking at the Taoist's head, but because the man under the bamboo hat said lightly, don't be afraid, it became docile stand up.

After listening carefully, it was the pieces of glass on the Taoist's waist colliding, and there was a clear sound of requiem.

"Go and call your people." Yu Huaiyin picked up a flower crown and put it on the crane's head, and then called out a water mirror to let the crane see his current appearance clearly.

For some reason, when the menacing crane looked at the strange shadow in the mirror, it was in a trance for a moment, and a tear slowly flowed from the crane's eyes.

It fluttered its wings and screamed, then flew away suddenly, and when it returned, there were countless garland cranes following behind the crane.

These cranes did not attack people anymore, they circled in the sky, one after another took away the corolla that Yu Huaiyin put on the mountain, and put it on top of each other's heads.

"Master, how do you know that these crane monsters will be deceived by the flower crown?" Liang Chi looked towards the sky, he had never seen the scene of thousands of cranes gathering before, and his master always seemed to attract these strange sights, making him dizzying.

"When did the teacher say that it was a lie, it was just a small form of transformation." Yu Huaiyin said simply, but his vision was a little blurred.The technique of changing form and changing shadows is not what he is good at, not to mention performing it on thousands of cranes at the same time, no matter how much spiritual power he has, it will be exhausted.

"..."

Liang Chi didn't speak any more, but his eyes were soaked in blue, and they were abnormally bright.

Suddenly, a crane that disappeared from behind struck from behind, and flew high into the sky with Yu Huaiyin on its back.

"Master!"

"Xianchang!"

Seeing the figure of the Taoist fly away, everyone couldn't help screaming, but the next moment they were also taken into the sky by the garland crane.

"Don't be afraid, everyone, this crane said that it will take us across the snow mountain to the next demon realm." Zhou Ke bent down and listened to the crane's words.

Several garlanded cranes flew back and forth side by side. Shi Shushu lay on the back of the cranes and drew a demon spectrum, saying with emotion: "I never thought they would be so easy to talk to."

"We didn't return what the Garlanded Cranes lost to them, but they easily forgave the world just because we were not hostile." Yu Huaiyin sat upright, and looked down, remembering Liang Liang in the original book They did not receive the courtesy of the Garland Crane clan.

His move of turning an enemy into a friend may have left behind the important NPC who wanted to harm Liang Chu, and I'm afraid it was self-defeating.

"I used to hear dramas saying that mortals have feelings, but who is the one who is heartless and righteous?" Su Xuanzhi seldom opened his mouth after entering the God Forest, but now he is standing on the clouds overlooking the mountains and rivers, and he can't help being moved by it.

The white clouds are long, and the cranes are in the clear sky.

People who were on their way in the sacred forest saw the shadows of cranes flashing past on the ground. They raised their heads and saw the flock of cranes moving westward, which should be an auspicious omen.

"Master." The two cranes drove together, and Liang Chu took out the dead branch he had wrapped with red silk in the wild forest. The mace pendant on it was as bright red as blood, shining brightly in the mist.

Yu Huaiyin's eyes turned towards him, waiting for the next chapter of the book.

"This is for Master." Liang Chu sent the corolla forward. It was the young man who was full of respect and wanted to send his most sincere blessings to the immortal who wholeheartedly admired him.

"Is this considered driving the cranes west?" On the other side, Dong Zhu looked at the direction the cranes were heading, and suddenly remembered the new idioms he had just learned a few days ago.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Ke's expression changed when he heard his words startled.

A gift from the main character?

Yu Huaiyin slightly leaned forward to take the wreath, but because of this slight positional deviation, an arrow with a strong wind roared towards him, brushing his sleeve and hitting Liang Chu's chest.

This arrow was not unreasonable, because after the arrow pierced into the flesh and blood of the young man in red, the momentum of the arrow did not dissipate. The moment it passed through the chest, Liang Ce's whole body was engulfed by the huge impact and fell down. cloud.

Yu Huaiyin was startled, the spike corolla fell from his fingers, he wanted to grab Liang Chu's hand, but he was also shot by the arrow, the spiritual power stagnated in his body, and he fell down as well.

"Who is plotting?" Zhou Ke was the closest to the two of them. Seeing them fall, the first one became alert and quickly smashed the arrows that hit her with a thorn whip.

"It's too far away, I can't see clearly." Dong Zhu condensed a spider web in front of him, blocking all the incoming arrows.

"Brother Su——" Shi Shushu saw Su Xuan's arrow fall into the clouds, and jumped down to save others without thinking about his own safety.

Four of the six people were lost, and the group of cranes that were moving forward noticed something strange. The leader crane kept singing, and the surrounding cranes got the news, and they all spread their wings to help protect Zhou Ke and Dong Zhu.

Although these cranes have no colorful feathers, after thousands of years of practice, their feathers are extremely strong, and the arrows falling from the sky can only scratch their flesh, not their roots.

"The Immortal Elder and the others fell down."

Zhou Ke knelt on the back of the crane and watched Yu Huaiyin and the others get farther and farther away. She frowned anxiously, and when she turned her head, she saw the garland crane protecting her body. Jumped down.

The East spider naturally also jumped down.

In mid-air, Liang Chu, who was falling, wanted to call out the invisible sword several times, but was blocked by the flight restriction of the imperial sword set in the forest of gods.

Out of his heart, he never wanted to put himself in a dangerous situation. When the fear came, he knew that he had too many ways to save his life.

Even if it was a little dirty, as long as he could survive, he would not hesitate to try.

But when he saw that familiar figure chasing after him, his heart calmed down.

"Concentrate on protecting yourself with your spiritual power." Yu Huaiyin summoned a pistol and shouted at the rapidly falling figure below.At the same time, he held tightly the flower crown that Liang Chu wanted to give him, and put it into his sleeve.

Special props may come in handy in the future, so don't throw them away!
