Chapter 5 Diving into the waterhole

"Leper eighteen, what do you want to show me? Why do you always pull me back?"

"It's all good to tell you, and I promise it won't disappoint you. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"But we still have a ...... task"

"It's the same with finishing the task after reading it. ”

Zhou Chen forcibly dragged the gecko monster out of Liuhe Village, walking in the direction he was coming and going, and kept prevaricating with the excuse of "showing you something good" along the way.

After walking a long way, seeing that he had returned to the millions of mountains, the gecko monster finally felt that something was wrong, and used all his strength to break away from Zhou Chen, and said loudly: "Leper eighteen, I see that you want to be lazy and not do the task, and you want me to take the blame together, I am not stupid, now I have to go to the deputy commander to complain!"

With that, the gecko monster turned around and left.

"Alas, don't go, second brother, I really have something to show you. ”

Zhou Chen saw that the gecko monster had his back to him, and the opportunity for the secret path came. shouted words to make the other party relax their vigilance, and followed in three or two steps, pulled out the steel fork on his waist, and stabbed the back of the gecko monster's neck.

Zhou Chen gritted his teeth and showed a hideous face, and he was about to stab the gecko monster through the neck, which would definitely kill him this time.

And at this moment, the gecko monster with his back to him actually dodged sideways.

"What do you want to do?!"

The gecko monster turned around and pulled a few steps away, glaring angrily at Zhou Chen.

"Actually dodged?"

Zhou Chen looked at the angry eyes of the gecko monster and immediately figured out the reason. The gecko's two eyes were on either side of his head, and his field of vision was very large, no less than that of his toad. So it can still see what's going on behind it without looking back.

Zhou Chen secretly made a mistake, but the matter has come to this point, and he will not give up. If the sneak attack fails, then face it head-on.

He gripped the steel fork and rushed at full speed at the gecko.

"Leper Eighteen, what do you want to do? Are you crazy?!"

The gecko monster is afraid, it is also "strange", and its cultivation is almost the same, but one has a weapon in his hand and the other does not, this is the absolute gap.

When it saw Zhou Chen rushing at full speed, it no longer stood upright on its legs, but lay down all over, returning to its instinct to run for its life on four legs.

The gecko is also called the four-legged snake, and with all four legs, it is extremely fast, and the body jumps out of the distance in an instant with a twist. After three or two clicks, it disappeared completely.

"It's still inexperienced. ”

Zhou Chen, who failed to attack, silently watched the gecko monster escape, but he quickly accepted this result in his heart.

Even if he fully accepted the memory of Leper Eighteen, he was still not good at fighting, because the original Leper Eighteen had not experienced several fights.

Most of its memories were eating, sleeping, sleeping, eating, and occasionally going down the mountain with other youkai to intimidate the villagers in order to collect offerings.

The few dangerous experiences that I remember are still when it has not yet cultivated to perfection, and when it encounters natural enemies on the food chain and desperately escapes.

"It's okay, this time is a wake-up call, so I won't be careless in the real life and death scene in the future. ”

Zhou Chen originally wanted to kill the gecko monster and kill the mouth, so that what he did would not be known by other monsters, even if he was asked about the whereabouts of the gecko monster, he had a reason to fool around.

"It's a bit of a hassle to be sued by it now......"

Of course, Zhou Chen can also fight back, and on the other hand, the gecko monster is suspicious, but both sides insist on their own words, and he will definitely be focused on next, which is quite unfavorable to him.

"Damn, just hide and don't go back. I don't believe that under the pressure of the gourd fairy, this group of monsters still has much strength to hunt down and kill me, a traitor. And in a few dozen days at most, this group of monsters will be completely wiped out, and I will go back to send them to death!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Chen also made up his mind.

He thrust the steel fork back into his waist, tightened his belt again, and began to walk in one direction.

He still has no clothes on his body, only a black belt around his waist, which he has managed to find, just to make the steel fork easy to carry.

"This should be the area. ”

After a short half a day, after completely entering the night, Zhou Chen arrived at an area where all kinds of weeds were extremely luxuriant.

"According to the environment described in the book, the waterhole should be nearby. ”

Zhou Chen's body is not an ordinary toad, but a monster with successful cultivation. The demon body is not very strong but it is extraordinary, so the two eyes already have good night vision. Moreover, the toad was originally a nocturnal animal, and at this moment, the moonlight was shining high in the sky, making his search not very difficult.

"There it is!"

After pushing aside a tall tuft of weeds, a small waterhole appeared in front of Zhou Chen's eyes. The surface of the water is sparkling, and there seems to be a hint of mystery hidden.

Zhou Chen knew that this waterhole seemed to be small on the surface, but in fact, it was very deep underwater, and the dark tide was surging and dangerous. And his target this time, the thousand-year-old mussel, is at the bottom of this deepest pool.

"Fortunately, I crossed over to this water-attribute toad, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do. ”

Before Zhou Chen crossed, he just learned to swim, so don't think about diving. Now that he has become this water toad, he is naturally more water-permeable than other attributed toads, and it can even be said that underwater is his real home field.

Thump!

Without hesitation, Zhou Chen jumped directly into the pool.

After entering the water, Zhou Chen changed to breathe through his skin, which made him feel smoother than when he was on land. He kicked his two toad thighs and swam down with the most standard breaststroke.

As you go deeper, your surroundings change. More and longer aquatic plants grow out of the mud walls of the waterholes, and many creatures hide in these dense aquatic plants.

Of course, there are also many large fish that are starting to appear. However, Zhou Chen was bent on advancing downwards and didn't care about these creatures.

Just as Zhou Chen was concentrating on observing below, his limbs kept swimming, a black shadow suddenly sprang out of a cluster of aquatic plants not far from him, and struck at his head like lightning.

"What!?"

Zhou Chen only had time to twist his head, but he couldn't avoid it completely, and his face was wiped by the black shadow.

It hurt so much that Zhou Chen knew that a piece of the skin on his face had been wiped off and began to ooze blood.

He didn't have time to think about it at this point, because the dark shadow was rushing towards him again.

"!"

With a curse in his heart, he immediately pulled out the steel fork on his waist and waved it vigorously in front of him.

The black shadow didn't have time to stop, and hit Zhou Chen's fast-dancing steel fork headlong.

"Fish with teeth?"

The black shadow seemed to be hit by this blow, and it lost its ghostly speed for a while, making Zhou Chen see its body clearly.

The fish was not big, but two teeth grew out of its mouth like a sharp sword, and it was extremely sharp, which made Zhou Chen afraid for a while. If you bite it and attack, you might get pierced.

Judging from the speed of this fish, it should have become a "fine". And when it only hit the steel fork, it was already full of meat and vegetables, and it lost its combat effectiveness, obviously the body is very weak, then it must not have reached the realm of "strange".

There is a part of the "fine" that is like this, which is outstanding in some aspects, but it is still very weak on the whole.

Zhou Chen, the toad monster, belongs to the kind that is mediocre in all aspects, and it is easy to be confused by these "essences" who have a specialty.

"I almost capsized in the gutter. ”

Zhou Chen glanced at the fish spirit viciously, swung the steel fork with all his strength, and slapped it to death.

"According to the description in the book, except for the thousand-year-old mussel in this pool, the most other creatures are essences, and there will be no strange existence, and they will not pose a big threat to me. ”

Although he thought so, he had just been attacked by the extremely fast fish spirit, and Zhou Chen didn't dare to be careless, and explored deeper below more cautiously.
