Chapter 590: The Sphinx Wants to Eat People

"What kind of magical beast is this, a three-headed lion?" Shangguan Zixu was a little flustered at that time.

Although he was ten years old, he was considered older in the palace school, but after all, he was still a child, and he was somewhat panicked when he suddenly saw such a strange and huge three lions coming over.

Hurriedly pulling out the spirit sword, he and Zuo Dong stared vigilantly, ready to make a move.

"It's been a long time since anyone has been here, it's so lonely, kid, would you like to play a game with me?" the Sphinx walked over slowly, but his whole body exuded a majesty that was intimidating.

"This is a divine beast, so powerful!" Zuo Dong shouted directly.

Shangguan Zixu's eyes lit up, they actually met a talking divine beast, and they had to play a game with them.

He was bold and said, "What game to play?"

As soon as these words came out, he and Zuo Dong felt a mysterious power descending at the same time, but they couldn't say what it was. The Sphinx's eyes moved, as long as he answered this sentence, it meant that the contract had been made and the game must be played.

"It's very simple," it said with its mouth wide open, revealing the white teeth inside, full of majesty, "I ask you a question, and if you answer, I will let you go." If you can't answer, I'll eat you. ”

When the two children heard this, their eyes immediately shrank.

"No, no, no, we're not playing with you anymore, we're leaving, goodbye......"

Before they could turn around, the Sphinx had already appeared behind them, full of murderous aura, and walked over step by step: "If you don't play the game, you will be eaten by me." ”

It was so happy that the two children were a little dumber, and it would have a full meal this time.

Shangguan Zixu grabbed the spirit sword on the spot and wanted to fight back, but as the Sphinx walked step by step, the powerful power was like the top of the mountain, and they couldn't resist at all.

Doesn't it mean that this is a low-level secret realm, and there are no powerful magical beasts? Why is there a divine beast?!

Zuo Dong shouted in fright on the spot, but was stopped by Shangguan Zixu: "Enough, calm down, don't scream, otherwise you will attract those guards from the Southern Regions, do you want them to die in vain, or lose our face in the Eastern Wilderness?"

"But......" Zuo Dong knew he was right, but he couldn't help it.

These three lion beasts are so terrifying, he doesn't want to die!

At the critical juncture, Shangguan Zixu remembered what Wang Taifu had warned them to never be in a hurry, to be calm!

Gradually, the two of them controlled a little, Shangguan Zixu's little face was cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's play this game with you." Say, what are the rules, you still have to pay if we win the province!"

"How could I settle a debt with a child. ”

The Sphinx laughed: "The rules of the game are very simple, I ask you to answer, if you answer correctly, let you go, and if you answer wrong, I will eat you, now on, I will ask the first question." ”

"I ...... What's the name!"

didn't expect it to be so fast, and they didn't even have a little room to think, Shangguan Zixu and Zuo Dong's vests were soaked, staring nervously at the three lions in front of them.

They had never seen such a divine beast, and the elders in the family did not tell them, and even with so many books in the family, none of them said that there were such divine beasts in the world. What now?

I don't know the name of this beast......

Seeing the panicked reactions of the two children, the Sphinx smiled and walked over step by step: "Answer quickly, if you can't answer, you will admit defeat, you will be eaten by me." ”

It opened its mouth and roared, and suddenly a fishy wind blew, and the weeds on the ground were swept up into the sky.

Zuo Dong broke out in a cold sweat, retreated step by step, and suddenly stood unsteadily and tripped to the ground, and almost fell to Shangguan Zixula. Seeing that the three lions were getting closer and closer, looking like they were choosing people to devour, Zuo Dong suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "Wait!"

The Sphinx stood still, and there was only cruelty and ridicule in his golden eyes: "Child, what else do you want to say?"

"Wait, let's think about it first, you didn't say you can't let us think about it, right?"

A murderous look flashed in the Sphinx's eyes: "Okay, let you think about it." ”

It crouched down and watched the two little children drool, and it was okay for them to think about it for a while, they couldn't answer anyway. It's just a matter of time, it's been waiting for tens of thousands of years, and it's not in a hurry.

Zuo Dong and Shangguan Zixu thought about it for a long time, and time passed little by little.

After a cup of tea, the Sphinx asked, "Have you thought about it?"

"Nope. Think again......"

Half an hour passed, and the Sphinx became impatient: "Haven't you thought about it yet?"

"Don't worry, think about this question. ”

The Sphinx roared angrily and stood up, it turned out that these two children were deliberately delaying time!

"Since I can't answer, then I'm going to eat you!" said it, and it was about to pounce on Zuo Dong and Shangguan Zixu.

Shangguan Zixu shouted: "No, you are cheating! We haven't admitted defeat yet, why should you eat us? You didn't say how long you can only think about it, why can't we think about it for ......a while?"

Only then did the Sphinx realize that he had been tricked by them.

"You dare to offend the great Sphinx god, you ......"

"Ah, it turns out that your name is Sphinx!" Zuo Dong grabbed something, and his eyes lit up: "Your words don't count, what a god, your name is Sphinx, right? We are right, you have to let us go!"

The body froze, and the Sphinx was in place.

How did it come out of nowhere?

Damn, it's all because it used to make it a habit, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. But the two children had already answered correctly, and according to the contract, it could not eat them.

The Sphinx roared angrily, obviously it wanted to pounce and eat the two children, but there was a force in the dark that controlled its behavior, and it was helpless.

Seeing the two delicious children running away, the Sphinx looked gloomy, and his mane was like a steel needle.

No, it can't help it, it must eat a few children!

......

The Southland team's side.

Lei Tiancheng led nine classmates to look for spiritual herbs and elixirs everywhere, and the harvest was good.

After all, it is the guards of the Southern Regions, and privately, these guards who protect the vicinity occasionally find valuable spirit grass, and they will also give various hints and guidance to lure some little princes and county lords to a certain location for them to discover.

"Wow, I saw another Dongling Grass, this is the Six-Rank Spirit Grass!" shouted a nine-year-old little county lord, his eyes full of little stars.

Just as she picked up the winter grass, she suddenly stood still.

In the dense forest ten zhang in front of him, there was a golden figure between several big trees, and it was a huge lion.

The lion slowly came out, and it had three heads!

The Dongling grass in the little county lord's hand fell, staring at the three lions in surprise, becoming more and more excited: "Look, there is a divine beast, the divine beast is coming, the divine beast has appeared!"

This voice is crisp and pleasant, like Izugu Huangying, which attracts everyone at once.

Lei Tiancheng strode over, staring at the three lions that were gradually approaching, and felt a powerful force rushing towards him. It was the breath of a divine beast, definitely not a demonic beast, and it didn't have that kind of ferocious bloody aura.

"There are actually divine beasts, how did those people who explored the secret realm before, and they didn't even find this?" Lei Tiancheng was a little displeased, fortunately it was not a demonic beast that came out, otherwise there were so many of them, I was afraid that they would die in the secret realm.

Seeing that the ten children in front of him did not run, the Sphinx became more and more cautious

This time, it must eat them all, leaving not a single one.

But be careful!

"No one has been here for tens of thousands of years, children, I'm lonely, would you like to play a game with me?" It was its curse, and if one of the ten children answered it, all of them would be involved in the curse and could not be broken.

Lei Tiancheng saw that the divine beast was so gentle, obviously he had no killing intent, and he could still speak, so it was convenient to communicate.

"Can you actually speak?" The little county lord Nangong Wan'er was very curious, ran over in two steps, and touched the mane of the Sphinx: "Wow, this hair is so hard, golden and shiny, like gold, it's so beautiful." ”

Seeing Nangong Wan'er's movements, the other children also became energetic.

They haven't seen the mythical beast with their own eyes, the legendary mythical beast is very rare, either it is His Majesty's divine favor, or it has long disappeared, but the one in front of them not only can speak, but also has three heads, which is really interesting.

A group of little princes, little princesses, and little ladies also rushed forward, scrambling to touch the mane of the Sphinx: "Wow, it's really beautiful...... But it's not as comfortable as my mother's cat. ”

"Three heads, do you want three bowls of rice when you eat?"

"And the third eye, how can it be opened vertically, can you see clearly?"

"Big lion, big lion, have you always lived here, do you want to go back with me, I'll let my father eat meat for you every day......!

It only felt that countless hands were pulling at it, and the ten sphinx were completely stunned.

Why, these little ones are not afraid of it?

It's not a pet when you touch it like that! It's going to get angry!

"Woo ......" a wild roar, the wind was fierce, and the Sphinx shook his head violently, and immediately knocked everyone to the ground.

Only then did the children react, but fortunately, they were fine, so they were a little more careful.

"Don't mess around, this is a divine beast, you have to respect it, don't you want to know it?" Lei Tiancheng stared at his companion solemnly, and said: "What are we here for this time, have you forgotten? ”

Everyone bowed their heads, the little prince's lesson was really right, they were wrong.

The Sphinx was a little satisfied, the little child was wise, he knew that it wanted to eat them, and he said it well!

With deep eyes and a dark glow, the Sphinx repeated again: "Would you like to play a game with me?"

"Yes, Lord Divine Beast, what do you want us to play with you?" Lei Tiancheng immediately agreed, he didn't expect to be so lucky to meet a talking divine beast.

Maybe it's their good luck, and they can learn a lot from the Divine Beasts.

As soon as the words fell, a mysterious power immediately descended, enveloping everyone, and the Sphinx was finally relieved. The contract has been made, and these ten children are settled today!

"I ask you a question, and you answer...... "In order to avoid the situation of the two treacherous children last time, the Sphinx is also cunning," but to answer within the allotted time, within a stick of incense. ”
