Jiang Nan didn't ask what he was robbed of, and since Wu Zhongyuan said that he was robbed of something, he didn't know what he was robbed of.

"How was it snatched away?" Jiang Nan asked.

"It was snatched away. Wu Zhongyuan looked dazed, he just felt a flower in front of him before, and then the iron tree was gone.

The old blind man and the second child woke up when they heard the sound, the second child helped the old blind man and came over to ask what was going on, Wu Zhongyuan did not completely come back to his senses until this time, the change happened too suddenly, he didn't see the other party's appearance at all, but a flower in front of him showed that something ran over, as for what it was, he didn't know, the other party's speed was too fast, and he didn't even see the outline clearly.

"Big brother, are you mistaken?" The second child asked suspiciously, although Dasha was far away, but Huang Mao'er was lying near Wu Zhongyuan, or did it help the old blind man over, Huang Mao'er stood up, if something really ran over, Huang Mao'er could not be unaware.

"What nonsense is it talking about, what can I be mistaken?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at the distance from close range, looking for traces of his opponents, he rarely really liked anything, he really liked this iron tree, he liked it from the bottom of his heart, and it was snatched away inexplicably, both anxious and annoyed.

"Is it that red-haired fox in Kunlun Mountain?" Jiang Nan raised his hand and pointed westward, "You used to trick it into using an elixir to fix the soul stone, and when it woke up, it came to you to find trouble." ”

"No," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "That little fox uses teleportation, the thing that snatched the iron tree just now ran from south to north, I can feel the force of dragging, it is definitely not a little fox." ”

Seeing that Jiang Nan still wanted to speak, Wu Zhongyuan shook his head again and said, "I said that it must not be it, that phantom seems to be white, and its body is bigger than the little fox, besides, even if the little fox wants to come to us for trouble, why should he grab the soul stone and the iron tree trunk?"

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Nan didn't insist on his guess anymore, and said in a harmonious voice, "Don't worry, calm down and recall carefully, what do you feel the other party is? Is it a human or some kind of alien?"

Wu Zhongyuan closed his eyes and recalled, "I was standing just now, and this thing can make my eyes shine to show that the size is not very small, and it is likely to be a human being." ”

"Since you ran in front of you, did you smell any unusual smell and smell?" Jiang Nan asked again.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer immediately, and continued to close his eyes and recall, he seemed to have smelled something just now, and because the smell was very faint, he couldn't remember what it was for a while.

"It's the smell of alcohol. The old blind man said.

Hearing the words of the old blind man, Wu Zhongyuan and Jiang Nan turned their heads to look at him, and the second child was looking for footprints nearby, and he also turned his head when he heard the sound.

"In addition to the smell of wine, there is also the smell of apes," said the old blind man, "and it is likely that the one who has stolen the iron tree is a raccoon." ”

"Raccoon?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned and repeated, the pronunciation of the raccoon was the same as that of an orangutan.

The old blind man explained, "The beast is a wild beast, resembling an ape, but it is taller than an ape, has two white ears, is cunning, playful, runs, and is a drunkard. ”

After the old blind man finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan did not answer immediately, the meaning of the language at this time is different from that of modern language, cunning is a neutral word, it has the meaning of cunning and cunning, and it also means that it is clever and clever. Playing is not simply teasing others, but generally refers to being playful, liking games and playing, including liking to tease people. The coming thing refers to what happened before, but it can be known that this kind of desolate beast called the wild beast has a special ability to know what a person has experienced before.

"Sir, have you seen this kind of beast before?" Jiang Nan asked.

The old blind man shook his head, "No, I have only heard some legends about it, according to legend, this thing has a large population before, and there have been people who have tried to appease and domesticate, but although this thing is well-known but does not obey discipline, it is used for agriculture to destroy the plow, and the war is to turn against the battle, and the city wall is burned to the house, and the wild is trampled on the grain. ”

After the old blind man finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan asked, "How fast can it run?"

The old blind man shook his head, "I don't know how fast I can run, but no one can catch up with them, and if you want to catch them, you can only use wine to lure them, this thing is like a drunkard, even if you know that it is a trap, you can't hold it, even if you hesitate, you will always end up in the net."

At this moment, the second child noticed something, pointed to a drooping branch and shouted at Wu Zhongyuan, "Big brother, come and see." ”

Wu Zhongyuan walked over quickly, followed the second child's finger and looked at the root of the tree, only to see obvious nail scratches on the branches, those scratches were somewhat similar to the five fingers of humans, and they should belong to some kind of ape.

Seeing the scratches on the branches, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly realized, no wonder there were no footprints left on the ground, it turned out that this thing was grabbing the branches and swinging over.

These scratches also confirmed the old blind man's suspicion that it should be this strange beast called the Raccoon that stole the Iron Tree.

Wu Zhongyuan climbed the tree and looked around from a high place, but did not find this thing.

He jumped down from the tree and asked the old blind man, "Sir, in your opinion, why did this thing rob the iron tree?"

"Playing tricks, or perhaps being curious about the iron tree," said the old blind man, "the fox is not good at using weapons, and even if it is of little use to snatch the iron tree." ”

Hearing the old blind man's words, Wu Zhongyuan couldn't cry or laugh, "If it's not good for yourself, why harm others?"

The old blind man did not answer, and it is estimated that only the fox himself can answer this question, and he may not even be able to answer it himself.

Jiang Nan asked, "Sir, why did it come to us?"

The old blind man shook his head and said, "It's not good, maybe it's because I saw that the adults cherished the iron tree very much, and deliberately seized it to make the adults sad and angry." Or maybe you saw it cutting down an iron tree before, and it was curious about it, so it took the opportunity to take it away and explore it. ”

"What will it do with the Iron Tree?" Jiang Nan asked.

"It's hard to say, it's impermanent, it's not pretentious, whatever it does is a whim," said the old blind man, "and after exploring it, it feels boring, and it may be discarded." ”

Hearing the words of the old blind man, Wu Zhongyuan frowned, he thought that the second child was cheap enough, but he didn't expect that there was even more cheap than the second child, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not win people's love, this thing does the opposite.

"Sir, what do you mean when you say that it speaks human language?" Wu Zhongyuan asked, "Can it speak human language, or can it understand human language?"

"Whether you can speak or not is unknown, but you can understand it. The old blind man replied.

Wu Zhongyuan said, "It must not have gone far at this time, so I shouted a few times to see if I could lure it back." ”

Seeing that no one objected, Wu Zhongyuan jumped up, returned to the top of the tree, and shouted, "Raccoon, can you understand human speech?"

He used the method of agitation, but I don't know if the strength of the agitation was not enough or the raccoon went far away, and after shouting, the raccoon did not show up.

Wu Zhongyuan whispered to the old blind man under the tree, "Sir, how is the mind of this thing?"

"Although cunning, he is an outlier in the end. The old blind man said.

Wu Zhongyuan knew it in his heart, and raised his voice again and said loudly, "The fox can't run so fast, it must have been snatched away by the little fox that can move instantly, let's go to Kunlun Mountain." ”

Wu Zhongyuan said, there was still no abnormality around.

After a short period of silence, he made a gesture to the three of them, and when they boarded Dasha, he gave Dasha a lift-off, since this thing likes to tease people, it will definitely not let him get what he wants, no matter what he wants to do, he must come in reverse, if the fox is really still nearby, he has to let it see that they really want to go to Kunlun Mountain.

After Dasha lifted off, the fox still did not appear, and Wu Zhongyuan had to raise his breath and jump on Dasha's head.

At this moment, a gray-haired monkey suddenly swayed not far to the north, in fact, this thing is not a monkey, but it is not like an orangutan, but a kind of ape between a monkey, an orangutan and a baboon, and the two white ears also confirm that it is the raccoon that the old blind man said.

The fox grabbed the vines and swung them high, raising his right hand high, this move was intended to show everyone the iron tree trunk in his hand that had been polished and smooth by Wu Zhongyuan.

After proving to everyone that the Iron Tree was in its hands, the raccoon disappeared into the forest and disappeared.

"Big brother, what should I do?" asked the second child.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer, what he was most worried about was that the lynx would run away after snatching the Iron Tree, as long as it was still nearby, there was a possibility of retaking the Iron Tree.

Thinking of this, he ordered Dasha to gather his wings and land.

After returning to the ground, Jiang Nan whispered to Wu Zhongyuan, "You try to keep it, I'll go get some drinks and come back." ”

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I just killed the Purple Qi Master of the Bird Clan, you go to the Bird Clan at this time......"

Before Wu Zhongyuan could finish speaking, the old blind man interrupted him, "Five hundred miles to the southeast is the Qingxu, which is the same existence as the Goat Valley and the Drinking Horse River, you can go there to get wine." ”

"I tried to get back before sunset. Jiang Nan said, raised his breath, turned into Qingluan in the air, and flew to the southeast.

Soon after Jiang Nan left, the fox appeared, across a small stream, Wu Zhongyuan and others were on the east bank of the downstream, and the fox was on the west bank of the upstream, sitting on the tree of a big tree, about fifty zhang away from Wu Zhongyuan and the others.

Wu Zhongyuan had seen the appearance of this thing clearly, this time he saw the eyes of this thing, the eyes are the windows of the soul, and the heart of this thing can be roughly seen through the eyes, and the fierce eyes contain a variety of emotions, including four points of curiosity, three points of pride, two points of laughter, and one point of contempt.

Wu Zhongyuan could understand the latter emotions, but what puzzled him was that the fox didn't seem to be interested in Tieshu, but was very interested in him, and occasionally used the corner of his eye to look at Huang Mao'er and Dasha, obviously, it had never seen these two animals before.

The raccoon may understand human speech, but it doesn't seem to be able to speak, otherwise it wouldn't just tilt its head to look at him all the time and remain silent.

At first, Wu Zhongyuan didn't know why, but then he finally realized that the animal can know the past, and he has lived in modern times for more than ten years, and the fox may be very interested in the things he has experienced, or he may be puzzled because he can't see through what he has experienced before.

When the fox threw a curious look at Huang Mao'er again, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly had a plan and hurriedly hugged Huang Mao'er in his arms.

Seeing him like this, a trace of doubt flashed in the fox's eyes, and then there was a little more evil in his eyes.

"Give me back the stick, and I'll give you a drink. Wu Zhongyuan confused the enemy and stalled for time at the same time.

Wu Zhongyuan said that, the fox showed disdain, leaned on the branch, and shook the trunk of the iron tree that had been cut into a stick.

"Sir, can he really understand human speech?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at the old blind man.

Before the old blind man could speak, the second child said from the side, "Big brother, you should be able to understand its expression." ”

Wu Zhongyuan's move was just to delay time, and he didn't suspect that the fox couldn't understand people's words, and when he saw the second child answering, he stretched out his hand to it.

With the experience of the past, the second child learned to be smart this time, and as soon as Wu Zhongyuan stretched out his hand, he handed over the lynx dragon stick.

Wu Zhongyuan took the lynx dragon stick in his hand, turned his head and said to the lynx, "I'll exchange this stick with you." ”

The fox sneered and spat at Wu Zhongyuan.

Wu Zhongyuan originally didn't plan to really exchange with it, but seeing it like this, he handed the lynx dragon stick to the second child, and then hugged Huang Mao'er nervously, with a look of fear that the lynx would come to snatch it......
