Chapter 664: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
Don't look at the two little short legs, the speed of the little paper man is still very fast, and it didn't take long for him to run to the range of more than 100 feet of the mud mound. The small size and short legs, the little paper man ran up and looked very funny, but the two of them did not smile at all, and even the curiosity in Hao Youxiao's eyes disappeared, replaced by a solemn look.
There is no other reason, there is a vision!
Although it was undetectable, under the careful observation of the two of them, the little wave of illusion on the muddy ground that seemed to be calm was still seen in their eyes.
As the little paper figure approached, the originally calm ground began to squirm gently, as if it was not the silt but the water surface in front of him, and as the little paper man stepped into the water, there were a little ripples, and the mud spirits hidden in the mud finally poked their heads out.
The closer the little paper man is, the more the mud spirits fluctuate, when it runs to the current position of about 100 zhang, the mud spirits dormant in the mud suddenly no longer only fluctuate, a mud pillar of arm length rises from the ground, and the top of the column transforms into a strange face with eyes and no mouth, and the head is lowered and pressed down on the little paper man.
Li Chuyi thought it was going to attack, and just wanted to control the little paper man to avoid it, but when he saw that strange face was low in front of the little paper man, he stopped. Searching back and forth around the face of the little paper man, he seemed to be looking at what the little paper man was.
After going back and forth several times, the strange face suddenly paused, raised his head slightly as if thinking about something, and after a while, he suddenly pounced, wrapped the little paper figure and retracted into the ground, and the field returned to tranquility.
"Discovered?" Hao Youxiao was shocked, the little paper figure was sacrificed by Li Chuyi with his breath similar to water poison, and the little paper figure was extremely similar to the mud spirit from the perspective of the breath, which was also the fundamental reason why the four sects were able to arrive at the teleportation altar safely.
But now Li Chuyi's method is not good, the mud spirit in the open space in front of him is too powerful, and he can distinguish the slightest difference from the small paper figure, and it seems impossible for him to cross this muddy ground by being confused.
Without looking at Hao Youxiao, Li Chuyi stared closely at the ground in front of him, shook his head lightly and said, "No, they didn't find it." ”
"Then why was your villain swallowed?"
"Because they're happy. ”
"When is it, it's still kidding!" Hao Youxiao's face was dissatisfied.
Li Chuyi smiled bitterly, sighed and said in a deep voice: "I'm not joking, it's really because they're happy." ”
Looking at Hao Youxiao, who was puzzled, Li Chuyi's face was full of helplessness: "The aura emitted by the water poison I refined is almost exactly the same as that of the mud spirits, the mud spirits are suspicious at most, but they definitely can't see the difference, and this is enough to prove that we can go far." The same is true of these mud spirits in front of them, they may be more powerful and intelligent than the mud spirits in other places, but no matter how smart they are, they can't tell the truth from the fake, they swallow the paper people precisely because they are happy. ”
Hao Youxiao was stunned, and said with some uncertainty: "You mean, they were very happy to see their kindred, so they pulled him into the mud to prepare to get close?"
"That's right. Li Chuyi smiled bitterly, "Just like when you meet someone you are interested in, you will have the idea of contacting the other person." The same is true of these mud spirits, the breath on the little paper people is very similar to them but not exactly the same, they think they are new breeds of the same people are curious, and they don't know whether they are too curious or too enthusiastic, alas!"
Sighing deeply, Li Chuyi was full of helplessness. Hao Youxiao also sighed, she knew why Li Chuyi was helpless.
It's a good thing that the mud spirit didn't find out that the water poison that has been refined is different, but it's a bad thing to get here. They didn't find the truth hidden underneath, but Hao Youxiao had no doubt that if she and the little fat man walked in under this hidden protection, the mud spirits who didn't know how many dormant in front of them would rush to welcome the arrival of the new clan.
When the mud spirits enthusiastically pulled them into the mud, then their ending would be no different from being discovered. Thinking of this, Hao Youxiao was also worried, and secretly pondered how to go over.
"Like before, can you find more little paper figures to lure them away?"
"Try it first!"
The little fat man nodded, waved his hand and offered out more than ten zhang dao talismans, and the next zhang dao talisman was transformed into a small paper figure in an instant, and under his control, he formed a horizontal line and leaned in.
As they approached, the ground began to surge again, probably because of the large number of "new kindred" this time, and the fluctuations of the ground were more violent than before, and before they could reach within a hundred feet, it was boiling like a boiling pot.
The ground churned so badly, but that was all there was to it. Unlike the ice puppets, the mud spirits are even lazier than Li Chuyi, they are so excited that they don't even move a nest, they just make a fuss in place, Li Chuyi and Hao Youxiao are sweating profusely on the side, and they are full of slander in their hearts.
Finally, the mud spirits couldn't bear it anymore, and with the appearance of the first mud pillar, one by one arm-like mud pillars rose from the ground. To the two of them, these mud pillars are short and thin nothing, but to the palm-sized little paper figures, they are like towering giant pillars, no matter how Li Chuyi controls and wants to dodge, the little paper people can't avoid the embrace of the mud pillars, and after a moment of effort, they are pulled into the ground one by one and disappear, and the field is quiet again.
"Oh, these lazy ghosts, still play with the rabbit!" the little fat man scolded, and he really had no choice but to refuse to move the mud spirit.
Seeing that this method was not feasible, Hao Youxiao's face also darkened, and she secretly wondered if there was any other way.
After thinking for a moment, the little fat man gritted his teeth: "I'll try it myself, I want to see if these things can't move or are too lazy to move! I don't believe it, they won't be moved by such a fragrant living person here!"
"No, don't be impulsive, it's too dangerous!" Hao Youxiao hurriedly grabbed him, this kid's madness came up again, and he actually tried the law, and he didn't know if he was really afraid of death or fake afraid of death, why did he die like this.
"No, it's okay, we can't be trapped here, right? Don't worry, even if the muddy waves really come, the master is not afraid, pull away and find a quagmire to drill in, or it won't be long before the master is a good man again!"
Where can Hao Youxiao be by him, not to mention that if he really wants to have three long and two short, she will have to die here, even from the bottom of his heart, Hao Youxiao will never allow him to do anything.
Seeing that the little fat man was so resolute, she hurriedly persuaded: "Don't don't, don't be impulsive first, you don't need to go in person if you want to go! Don't you have a thousand paper cranes, isn't it the same to inject your breath into a thousand paper cranes, you don't need to risk yourself!"
"It's different! The mana that the thousand paper cranes can hold is too small, far away, I'm afraid that these mud spirits can't feel it, and when they are close, these mud spirits don't need to move to catch it, they are not ice golems, they don't need to chase on two legs, there is so much silt here, they can pull out hundreds of feet of body casually, and the thousand paper cranes are fundamentally different!"
Seeing that Hao Youxiao didn't believe it, Li Chuyi didn't talk nonsense, and with a wave of his hand, a thousand paper cranes flew into the distance, and after making a big circle, he approached the mud mound from the other direction. But as the little fat man said, until the thousand paper cranes reached the range of about two miles around the mud mound, the mud spirits still did not react, but after less than half a mile forward, a mud pillar suddenly pulled out of the ground without warning, and only a moment of effort caught up with the thousand paper cranes, the mud fell to the ground, and the thousand paper cranes disappeared.
"Look, these rabbit cubs are really waiting for the rabbit!" The little fat man gritted his teeth, and Hao Youxiao's face was full of surprise.
"You hide here, don't hide your good breath and don't leak it, I'll go back!"
After speaking, without waiting for Hao Youxiao to reply, Li Chuyi stood up, gritted his teeth and approached after a big circle around the mud mound, like a thousand paper cranes, he approached a distance of about one and a half miles from the mud mound when he was discovered by the mud spirit, and one after another mud pillars rose to the sky, and the direction turned to Li Chuyi and fell suddenly.
The little fat man turned around and ran, he had been dealing with these things for so long, and there were thousands of paper cranes in front of him, he had long been on guard against these slackers who were waiting for the rabbit. As early as the moment when the ground fluctuated, he turned around and ran, and by the time the mud spirits had turned around and chased after him, he had already opened a distance of nearly a hundred zhang, and with a speed faster than a thousand paper cranes, he rushed away with a butt of mud pillars, and he was no longer visible.
Hao Youxiao waited in place with trepidation, secretly praying in her heart that Li Chuyifu would have a great life, and the fat-headed and big-faced Fu Taixiang would not die early, hoping that he would not fall here like this.
As she prayed, she observed the mud spirits here. As Li Chuyi guessed, these mud spirits are really different from the ones they encountered before, they really can't move, I don't know if they are imprisoned or other reasons, the mud spirits chasing Li Chuyi are only pulling out their bodies in place, and as they chase farther and farther, the ground where they take root gradually sinks, obviously draining the surrounding mud and turning into their own bodies.
Looking at the roots of the mud pillar, Hao Youxiao had an impulse to go over and cut off the Qi roots, she felt that doing so would relieve Li Chuyi of a lot of pressure. But although there are many mud pillars that come out, there are more mud spirits around, who knows how many mud spirits are still dormant in the empty mud fields next to her, if she is afraid that she can't get close to those mud pillars at all, she will be discovered by other mud spirits, and then another mud pillar will be pulled out like her chasing, and she will only end up like a little fat man.
In the torment, I don't know how long time has passed, the dozen or so mud pillars in front of them suddenly trembled in unison, and the momentum of pulling out suddenly stopped and reversed in an instant, and at the same time, one of them trembled the most violently, as if it had been hit hard, and it did not retract its body after the other mud pillars were all retracted to the ground, but cracked everywhere in a violent tremor, scattered into a mess of mud and smashed to the ground.
The sound of breaking the wind started, and Li Chuyi's figure appeared in the distance, and after a while, Hao Youxiao was beside her, and the eldest lady breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Judging by its color, although its face was covered with mud, it was full of energy, not at all like a person who had escaped in embarrassment, but as if he had gained some benefit. Thinking of the funny and strange appearance of the little fat man along the way, Hao Youxiao faintly guessed something in her heart, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"I'll go to his Taoist priest's, these lazy ghosts can really chase them, they are definitely thick and long, and it took more than 20 miles to chase the master!"
The little fat man scolded and chattered, and at the end of the day, he looked at Hao Youxiao with glowing eyes and laughed.
"Hahahaha, Xiao, praise me, the master has found a way to kill these lazy people!"
