Chapter 4 Kill the sand scorpion and save the princess
When it was close to dark, Gu Fan walked towards Gu Mansion with a large bag of things he bought. The guard at the door didn't ask much, this little young master often came back with a big bag of pen and ink, and they were all used to it.
Gu Fan returned to his house and put the things he bought back in the cabinet to prevent anyone from coming to see him.
"Teacher, let's go now?" Gu Fan's voice was a little urgent, and he wanted to start cultivating immediately.
"What are you in a hurry, you kid is not in a hurry to cultivate, and you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Yue Lao said softly.
"You take a look at this first, and then you'll talk about it after reading it. Yue Lao's body floated out, still holding a book in his hand.
What is it?
Gu Fan took it, "Flame Fist." "Is this a martial art?" Gu Fan pondered carefully.
"Teacher, I haven't started cultivating yet, and I can't learn this thing. Gu Fan flipped through it and put the book on the table.
"Let you read it and memorize it all. Yue Lao said again.
"Although you can't cultivate, you can use this Flame Fist with the help of external forces. Yue Lao's words made Gu Fanmao pause.
"In other words, after gathering the fire elements in the air, transfer all of them to your hands and use them as martial arts?"
Yue Lao smiled and nodded, there was a reason for Gu Fan to buy boxing gloves, if he used his hands directly, once he couldn't control them, his hands would be scrapped. And this glove is leather on the inside and iron on the outside, which is just enough to increase fault tolerance.
"If you use a fire-based martial art in a place with a high fire element, the damage can be increased several times, and the same is true for other martial arts. On the contrary, if you use fire-based martial arts in the water, the effect is like using a teacup to extinguish a fire, and it has no effect at all. Yue Lao said.
Gu Fan nodded, taking Yue Lao's words to heart.
"Okay, you watch first, I'm going to sleep, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"Yes, teacher. Gu Fan replied with a fist.
A few hours later, it was dawning.
"Teacher, it's time to go. Gu Fan sorted out his clothes, and when he came back yesterday, he bought a set of black clothes by the way, he didn't want to reveal his identity like this. I put the original clothes into the jade pendant, which is also a new function that I only researched last night.
"Your boy's socks smoke me to death, so I can't wash my feet properly. Yue Lao roared, this kid, let him put some daily necessities, he was fine, threw a bunch of socks in, smoked Yue Lao didn't sleep well all night.
"Pay attention next time, pay attention next time. Gu Fan sneered.
"It's weird if you can pay attention. Old Moon muttered.
Gu Fan opened the door with his hands and feet, and climbed over the wall with the help of Yue Lao, after all, it was easy to be found when he walked through the main door.
"Remember the location. Yue Lao asked.
"I asked those mercenaries yesterday, that's right. Just a little south of Huya Mountain, there shouldn't be any other beasts except for the giant sand scorpion. Gu Fan replied.
"But I heard that there may be heaven and earth spirit treasures or something. ”
"Hmm...... This is also normal, generally the heaven and earth spirit treasure is guarded by demonic beasts, it is estimated that this sand scorpion should be guarded for several years, and recently the medicinal materials are about to mature, so they are guarded all the time to prevent being stolen. Yue Lao analyzed.
"So we have to hurry up, or it will be even more difficult for this sand scorpion to eat the medicinal herbs again, and then try to enter his territory to remove the scorpion's tail. Yue Lao urged.
Gu Fan's speed also increased a little after listening to it. Dressed in black, he blended perfectly into the night, except for the sound of footsteps, he couldn't see Gu Fan's figure at all.
"It's here. ”
Gu Fan hid under a tree in the distance and looked at Huya Mountain, where the sand scorpion should be in the cave not far ahead.
Boom Boom!
The earth shook suddenly, startling Gu Fan. "What's going on!"
Suddenly a flame erupted from the cave.
"Be careful, there's someone fighting inside. Yue Lao reminded.
"If you touch it and take a look, you may be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”
That's exactly what I mean. Gu Fan and Yue Lao coincided and quietly approached the cave. "Looking at the temperature and power of the flame just now, it is estimated that it is a pseudo-martial art released by a person in the Innate Realm. "Yue Lao Analysis. "Although it looks good, the flame temperature is too low, which means that this person's level is not high, and we still have a good chance. ”
The innate realm is not high, and this sentence can be said by Yue Lao, his father used the innate realm to guard the border.
Gu Fan slowly approached the cave, the fight in the cave continued, and no one noticed him.
"It's a little girl!" Gu Fan was shocked. Although I can't see clearly before dawn, I look at my height, and I am estimated to be twelve or thirteen years old.
"Hmm...... It's not bad, it's a tenth of what I was back then. Yue Lao said narcissistically.
The little girl and the sand scorpion confronted each other, and beams of flames hit the sand scorpion's shell, leaving little scars. The little girl, on the other hand, was scarred by the sand scorpion's pincers and giant tail.
"You stinky beetle, this princess will kill you. The little girl got angry, and the little girl took out a pill and ate it, and her momentum seemed to have increased a lot. Continue to bombard the sand scorpions.
"You kid has a lot of encounters. Yue Lao said with a smile, but this Gu Fan sounded a little obscene.
"Huh?" What's wrong, Gu Fan was puzzled.
"This little girl is on the verge of defeat. Yue Lao said again.
"But the sand scorpion that she obviously completely suppressed, such a dense offensive should be difficult to resist. Gu Fan was a little confused.
"From the outside, it is true, but if you look closely, although the sand scorpion is retreating, it has not been substantially harmed, and the little girl's momentum has gradually weakened. ”
"And didn't you hear, she said she was a princess. Wouldn't it be ...... you saved her in a moment?"
What is this old guy thinking all day long, is he suffocating his illness in the jade pendant. Gu Fan has a big head, he was full of confidence before you let me come, but now he is so unreliable.
"Come, wait for me to set you up first. Yue Lao came out quietly, but he still spoke through the spirit.
"Hmm. Gu Fan nodded.
Yue Lao's movements were fast, but this time it was not just the Spirit Gathering Array, but it was even more cumbersome.
"This is the octagonal array, which can improve mental concentration, I see that little girl can't last much time, you hurry up and prepare." Yue Lao urged, if it was a little later, the other party might die here.
Gu Fan didn't have time to think about it, so he hurried up and prepared.
On the other hand, the tide has begun to turn.
"I hate it, I knew it would be better to let Uncle Mo come with me. "The princess is already at a disadvantage, the secret medicine she took just now has reached time, and she doesn't even have the strength to run away during the weak period. As the most favored person in the Great Qi Palace, this time he came here with the mission, and heard that there was a big sand scorpion on the way, so he ran out privately, but he was going to die here.
"Woooooooo The princess burst into tears at the thought of it, and slowly fainted.
But the sand scorpion doesn't understand this, it only knows that this person is an aggressor and wants to be killed. The giant pincers swung as it wanted to kill with a single blow.
"You brute, give me death. ”
Suddenly, Gu Fan's fist took a step first, and the fist seemed to be wrapped in real flames.
"Whew. The sand scorpion was not lightly injured by this punch, and the entire pincer was dented.
"Is this what power feels like? Gu Fan felt the power for the first time, and this feeling was incomparable, as if this sand scorpion was like an ant, and it was easy to kill it by himself.
"Don't be stunned, hurry up, you won't be in this state for long. Yue Lao pulled Gu Fan's thoughts back to reality.
Indeed, this is a borrowed fire element from the outside world, which will dissipate on its own after a while.
Gu Fan punched the sand scorpion with one punch, and the temperature was so high that it couldn't fight back at all.
Rumble!
The last punch was thrown, and the fire element on Gu Fan's fist completely dissipated, and the sand scorpion was also blurred by the beating.
"You kid, you don't know how to do it, this can be sold for money, if you don't make some money, you'll die poor. Yue Lao accused Gu Fan on the side.
Gu Fan scratched his head, it wasn't that he didn't want to control it, but he couldn't control it. Let's deal with the battlefield first.
Gu Fan dragged the sand scorpion's corpse aside. "Hmm...... After all, the crystal nucleus of the small sand scorpion tail is difficult to remove, so you have to use the whole tail, but this one is so big, just take the crystal nucleus, yes, that's it. Yue Lao instructed Gu Fan to take out the crystal nucleus on the side, and then returned to the jade pendant.
"I'll take a break, and you'll watch the rest. ”
Gu Fan scratched his head and looked at the princess lying on the ground. Although there are scars all over her body, it is not difficult to see that this princess is a beautiful embryo.
"Let's carry her into the cave first. "The giant sand scorpion has already devoured all the small sand scorpions, and now there are only Gu Fan and the princess in the cave, as well as a medicinal herb that I don't know what it is, which is relatively safe.
"Get some more sleep, catch up on sleep. There were still two or three hours before dawn, Gu Fan yawned and found a place to lie down next to the princess.
