Chapter Nine: Fighting Strange Beasts in the Mountains and Forests (Part II)
Obviously, Ling Ran's current knowledge reserve does not have the concept of a blood-tailed scorpion, Xiao Xiao continued to explain,
"A kind of scorpion, highly poisonous, stung by it, basically dead, its two large pincers can easily tear apart the prey, but I don't know why such a poisonous scorpion likes to play dead when it encounters danger, but it is a relatively rare medicinal material. ”
Xiao Xiao pouted.
Fiddling with it with a shovel is to see if this guy who likes to disguise is playing dead to avoid being attacked.
However, it seems that although this guy hid in the back cave and did not become the ration of the ice fox, he was completely frozen by the cold.
It's cheap to burn them,
Ling Ran stretched out his hand and prepared to pick up this scorpion that could be used for medicine, and after digging for a long time, he couldn't do without a harvest.
was stopped by Xiao Xiao,
"Do you want to die?"
Xiao Xiao was dissatisfied.
Frightened, Ling Ran retracted his hand on the spot! What kind of world is this, either frozen or poisoned, the creatures of this world are too unlovely.
"Isn't it dead, can it sting?" Ling Ran asked speechlessly.
"It doesn't have to die, the bloodtail scorpion has a rare ability - fake death, it can protect itself by entering a state of suspended animation, and once the danger is over, it can come back to life immediately, which may also be the reason why they like to play dead, always practicing fake death. ”
Xiao Xiao glanced at Ling Ran, this apprentice is really difficult to bring.
"Do you still want it?" Ling Ran asked, touching his nose,
Xiao Xiao's expression became extremely exaggerated, and his volume became extremely high,
"Nonsense!
The two of them had just carefully packed the scorpion into the bottle they were carrying and put it in the basket when the sound of running and crashing came, and the sound quickly approached.
"#¥%¥" I didn't hear what Xiao Xiao said, so I saw that she said to Ling Ran angrily and unhappily,
"Hurry up the tree!"
Ling Ran couldn't figure out the situation yet, Xiao Xiao had quickly climbed halfway up a tree, which really surprised him.
But what he saw immediately frightened him,
The ice fox that had disappeared was running in his direction in embarrassment, and if that wasn't enough to make Xiao Xiao lose his temper.
After the ice fox, snow splashed everywhere, and a huge black-skinned wild boar was rampage chasing the ice fox.
The poor ice fox ran straight towards Ling Ran like a panicked rabbit.
"Hurry up the tree!" Xiao Xiao reminded loudly,
Ling Ran reacted at this time, and hurriedly climbed up the bare trunk of a nearby tree.
It's just that the more anxious you are, the slower you climb, the slower you are, the more panicked you are, and you climb and slip.
And when Ling Ran climbed the tree, he somehow carried the big back basket on his back, and Xiao Xiao was anxious and angry.
only heard a "bang", Ling Ran subconsciously looked,
The ice fox actually crashed and died under a tree......
The black-skinned boar stopped, arching the ice fox with its long, thick fanged nose, exhaling a stream of hot air from its nose.
The black-skinned wild boar saw that the ice fox was dead but was not in a hurry to eat, but instead hung it aside, its nose pointed at the tree, and its eyes stared at Ling Ran.
Looking at the fangs of the black-skinned wild boar, the thick mane is upside down like thorns, the thick pigskin is like a layer of stones, and the sturdy body is the size of an elephant.
Ling Ran couldn't help but swallow his saliva,
Fortunately, although this guy is big, he shouldn't be able to reach himself.
Ling Ran looked at Xiao Xiao, and Xiao Xiao motioned for him to be quiet and not to move.
"Whew, whew,"
The black-skinned boar watched for a moment, then began to back away, making a heavy panting sound.
Ling Ran thought that the pig had given up and was going to retreat, and his heart was much more relaxed, it was really uncomfortable to be stared at by such a behemoth.
Before he could take a breath, Ling Ran's pupils constricted!
The black-skinned boar rushed at great speed with barely an acceleration,
Ling Ran subconsciously hugged the trunk tightly.
"Bang!"
A one-man tree trunk was almost broken!
Ling Ran's breath was short, and his heart was pounding! This impact shocked him and almost lost his strength.
Xiao Xiao was also in a hurry, breaking off the branch and throwing it at the wild boar, but the wild boar just shook his body, preparing for another round of savage impact!
Judging from the situation just now, this wild boar is probably just testing the water, and the tree that he is staying in again will definitely be broken.
Sure enough!
The black-skinned wild boar left an afterimage behind him, and the huge impact force directly knocked Ling Ran away, and the trunk of the tree was also broken from the bottom.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Ling Ran and tree trunks smashed on the ground one after another, and snowflakes broke branches and flew sideways.
A mouthful of fishy sweetness surged up to his throat, Ling Ran couldn't bear it and didn't spit it out, the back basket flew out, and the medicinal herbs were scattered all over the ground.
The black-skinned wild boar also swayed for a while because of the impact just now.
Ling Ran forgot about the danger at this time, maybe he fell unconscious, and he felt pity for this medicinal herb in his heart.
It took so long to sprinkle it on the ground like this, it's a pity, it's all some treasures of heaven and earth.
Ling Ran didn't notice that the wild boar had rushed towards him again, lying on the ground and reaching out to pick up these medicinal herbs,
Time seems to slow down,
A white but somewhat short little hand grabbed him, Ling Ran looked a little confused, and a force came from his hand, and the little hand pulled him away.
The boar pounced.
Ling Ran came to his senses a little at this time, and after a while, he looked at the owner of that hand,
It's Xiao Xiao!
The heroic posture is the most suitable to describe Xiao Xiao at this time,
Long hair and black braids, a few strands of hair in front of his forehead are messy, black and bright eyes, eyes are as white as bean flowers, lips are tightly pursed, and he doesn't know where to throw his light jacket on his body, a pair of small hands are clenched into fists, staring at the black-skinned wild boar motionlessly.
"Xiao Xiao ......" As soon as Ling Ran opened his mouth, the suppressed fishy sweetness surged up again, and a mouthful of blood foam flashed out of the corners of his mouth, and a feeling of nausea hit.
Ignoring Ling Ran's injury, the black-skinned wild boar had already reversed its momentum and rushed towards Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao flashed lightly, and dodged the attack that Ling Ran would definitely be hit.
Ling Ran hid aside, it seemed that Xiao Xiao not only cultivated immortals, but also did not fall behind in martial arts cultivation.
I saw Xiao Xiao change from a fist to a palm, slowly raising her breath, her face began to become ruddy, and her whole person's momentum became compelling, only to hear her shouting "ah", and she actually took the initiative to attack the black-skinned wild boar!
Although the black-skinned wild boar moves quickly, it is there after all, and Xiao Xiao's speed is also extremely fast.
The white palm slapped the boar's neck!
In Ling Ran's eyes, Xiao Xiao's palm was completely disproportionate to the size of the wild boar, and this small palm slapped up, maybe it was a mosquito bite?
But to Ling Ran's surprise, the black-skinned wild boar actually took a few steps back diagonally after receiving this palm!
"Whoa!"
The wild boar that was slapped by Xiao Xiao was obviously annoyed, roared angrily a few times, and rushed towards Xiao Xiao at an extremely fast speed.
Ling Ran only saw a black shadow, and before he even had time to say "be careful", the black-skinned wild boar had already rushed to Xiao Xiao's face.
Xiao Xiao was also surprised, she didn't expect that this wild boar's speed could be raised to a higher level, and now there is no way to dodge!
Immediately crossed his arms in front of his chest, and his face instantly turned red,
Zhong Shengong!
Ling Ran was worried about Xiao Xiao but couldn't react at all, he could only watch,
"Sonorous", as if the sound of hitting the iron plate,
At the moment of collision, the black-skinned wild boar flew back upside down at a faster speed, Xiao Xiao was even more uncomfortable, his small body flew several feet away, lying motionless in the snow pit.
Ling Ran clutched his chest and staggered to help Xiao Xiao up, but fortunately, Xiao Xiao was still conscious, but he was only temporarily out of strength.
"Are you okay?!Xiao Xiao, does it hurt?" Ling Ran asked nervously,
Helped up by Ling Ran, Xiao Xiao regained some strength, but fortunately, he had just hurriedly run the Creation Bell Divine Skill to resist, otherwise he didn't know how many bones he had broken now.
This black-skinned wild boar has not been encountered before, it is considered the overlord of this area, it is already rough and thick, and it has eaten a lot of heaven and earth treasures, some mutations, and the speed is extremely fast, which is why it is so difficult to deal with.
It's just that I've never been in direct contact with it before, and every time I see it, I just have to avoid it.
Today, I brought Ling Ran's oil bottle, and I really don't want to fight.
Xiao Xiao touched the snow on his face and gasped,
"I can't beat it, I can't run with you, I'll entangle it later, you run away!"
Although Xiao Xiao was injured a little, his thinking was extremely clear, the wild boar's skin and flesh were thick and his endurance was amazing, even if he was consumed here, he would be able to hurt a few hairs at most.
Ling Ran nodded, although he was worried about Xiao Xiao, he understood that if he didn't have his burden, Xiao Xiao might be able to escape easily.
"You be careful. ”
"Don't worry, a wild boar stopped me, and I don't need to cultivate immortals", Xiao Xiao said with a smile,
"It's coming! You go!" Xiao Xiao pushed Ling Ran away and met the wild boar.
Although Xiao Xiao and the wild boar were injured just now, the black-skinned wild boar is a strange beast after all, and its endurance is not comparable to Xiao Xiao.
Moreover, he had just blocked the wild boar's round of attacks and consumed a lot of True Qi, and now he was obviously at a disadvantage, and he could only rely on his flexible movements to swim away.
Xiao Xiao didn't care about whether Ling Ran ran ran away at this time, she just hoped that Ling Ran would go away quickly, and she would get out as soon as possible.
Ling Ran was originally on the run, but it was obvious that Xiao Xiao was at a disadvantage, and it might be dangerous if he was not careful.
Although he was afraid of death, if he let a girl's sacrifice be exchanged for his own life, he couldn't do it anyway.
Thinking like this, he stopped leaving, trying to find a weapon to help.
But in addition to the snow, there are some broken branches, and not even a stone can be found.
Perhaps the hardest thing is the medicine jar in the back basket.
Medicine jars?
Bloodtail Scorpion!
Highly toxic!
Ling Ran thought of something, and excitedly rushed to the back basket, turning over the crushed back basket to the jar.
Fortunately, the jar is fine.
Xiao Xiao caught a glimpse of Ling Ran not only not leaving, but running back, and was angry,
was distracted, and Xu Yuan was picked up by the fangs of a wild boar and fell to the ground!
Before he could get up and scold Ling Ran, he saw him holding a jar and glaring at him.
Xiao Xiao was unclear for a while, watching Ling Ran dancing with his hands, he immediately reacted, Ling Ran was holding the jar containing the blood-tailed scorpion!
She understood what Ling Ran meant, and could only hope that the blood-tailed scorpion in the jar was really not dead, so maybe there would be salvation!
Xiao Xiao touched the blood stains on the corner of her mouth, and after a flash of movement, she received the jar that Ling Ran threw to her.
Taking advantage of the rampage of the black-skinned wild boar losing his mind, one turned over and jumped onto the wild boar's back, quickly pulled out the stopper, buckled the medicine jar on the wild boar's back, and was thrown off by the wild boar.
Ling Ran stared carefully at the back of the wild boar with wide eyes, the medicine jar had already rolled to the snow, and he was looking for what he wanted to see on the back of the wild boar.
See!
Just like the contrast between an ant and an elephant, a blood-red thorny tail on the back of a wild boar hangs high, bright red, and stabs it fiercely!
Ling Ran seemed to hear a "poof",
Hard pigskin is pierced.
The black-skinned boar gasped and stared fiercely at Xiao Xiao who fell to the ground, preparing to deal with the human in front of him with the next round of attacks.
Suddenly, his forelimbs went limp, he staggered, fell to the ground, struggled a few times and didn't get up, and after a while, he didn't move.
In a moment, a scorpion holding a large claw slipped away from the boar and disappeared without a trace......
Ling Ran picked up Xiao Xiao and asked her how she was,
"It's okay, just rest for a while. ”
Ling Ran pointed to the wild boar again and asked,
"It?"
"Dead. ”
Xiao Xiao said weakly, she was seriously injured and had no strength, lying in Ling Ran's arms.
Ling Ran smacked his lips, looking at the black-skinned wild boar who was still alive one second and lying on the ground the next, his back was cold,
Poisonous enough!
