The Three Talking Lions!?

Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai were taken aback, and then reacted, they were afraid that it was a divine beast!

I didn't expect that there was an existence like a divine beast in this low-level secret realm, but I am afraid that the people in the Southern Regions did not investigate it carefully, otherwise how could they miss such an existence!

"What do you mean?" Gu Xiaotian looked at the three lions with dark eyes.

The three lions spoke in a low tone, and let out a low roar: "I've been here for so many years, enjoying the quiet, no one has come to disturb me for a long time, since you are here, then you have to play a game with me, otherwise, I will eat you." ”

Divine beasts still like to play games? Sikong Shuai looked at Gu Xiaotian and felt that it was very different, and asked, "Then what game do you say?"

The three lions looked at the two of them, their eyes were deep: "If it were an adult, I would eat it directly, but you are children, I will give you a chance." As long as you answer my question, I will let you go, but if you can't answer it, then you will be eaten by me. ”

If you say you want to eat it, you really give it food? It's not so stupid! Gu Xiaotian said in his heart, but he said: "We are children, but you are a divine beast, this is unfair, you are bullying us." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the spirit rhino rabbit with a pitiful look.

The three lions thought for a moment and said, "Then what do you want?"

Sikong Shuai didn't understand what Gu Xiaotian meant, and immediately said: "If we answer your question, you will let us go, but we will also ask you questions, if you don't answer, you have to agree to us with a request." ”

Gu Xiaotian immediately said: "Yes, this is fair." ”

A whirlwind blew and blew a fishy smell, and the three lions whined and said, "Okay, I'll start asking questions first." What animal walks on four legs in the morning, two at noon, and three at night?"

Gu Xiaotian's eyes moved, this question ......

When my mother used to tell him a story, she once said that this three lions are also very similar to the story of my mother, could it be that it is it!?

After thinking about it deliberately for a while, Gu Xiaotian said, "I know, it's human, right?"

The three lions' eyes darkened, and they actually answered correctly.

"You are using morning, noon, and night as a metaphor for the childhood, adulthood, and old age in a person's life, when it is four-legged, it is a small baby crawling on the ground, and an adult must walk on two legs, but in old age, there will be an extra crutch, and then the third leg, right?"

When Sikong Shuai heard this, he was pleasantly surprised: "Yes, Xiao Tianzhen is smart, he answered correctly." ”

A fishy wind erupted from the mouths of the three lions, and it seemed to be angry, but it could not do anything because of the rules. It shook its head for a moment before it said in a deep voice, "Okay, kid, you're right, it's time for you to ask a question." ”

Ask it rhetorically, and you must think of a difficult question.

Gu Xiaotian knew that these three lions were very wise divine beasts in the legend, and the general questions basically couldn't bother him, so he thought about it and said: "Okay, my question is, this thing devours everything, birds and beasts, trees and flowers, gnaws steel, grinds hard stones, kills all powerful people, destroys city walls, and can also level mountains, what is this thing?"

Even Sikong Shuai was stunned, even he couldn't think of this question, what is the answer?

But the three lions only thought for a moment, then opened their mouths and roared, and laughed: "Kid, your question is too simple, it's time, right? Only time can destroy everything, it can't be stopped." ”

Looking at its smug appearance, Gu Xiaotian could only nod: "Yes, the answer is right." ”

It seems that what my mother said is really true, this divine beast is very powerful, and there is almost no problem to stump it.

This is, Sikong Shuai said: "We've all asked questions, tie, can we go?"

"Of course not, you have to decide the winner. ”

Unexpectedly, the three lions became gloomy, staring at Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai, their golden eyes dyed with a touch of greed and murder. It walked up and said, "Are we going to continue playing the game, or are you willing to be eaten by me?"

How can it be so forced? Gu Xiaotian blinked and said, "Okay, keep playing the game, you ask again." ”

"That's right. ”

The three lions finally squatted down, their eyes flashed with golden light, and they asked a second question: "There is no breath in life, whether it is life or death, it is cold, it is never thirsty, although it is always drunk, what is this?"

Such a problem?

Sikong Shuai racked his brains and thought about it, what is something that is alive without breath, it seems that there is no need to breathe. Cold, still drinking water all the time?

Suddenly, he remembered and exclaimed, "I see, it's a fish, isn't it?"

The ...... paused for a long time before the three lions said in a deep voice, "That's right." ”

It looked a little impatient, and its eyes were no longer as calm as before, flashing with a hint of panic. It had never met anyone who could answer two of its questions in quick succession, or a child who suddenly had a sense of failure.

Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai high-fived: "Yay!"

"Now it's time for us to ask questions. Sikong Shuai thought for a while and said: "It's hard to think about this time, what can run but never walk, have a mouth but never speak, have a head but never cry, have a bed but never sleep?"

Before the words fell, the three lions whined and laughed: "This question is too simple, it's a river." ”

It got up again, stood up and walked forward step by step: "It's my turn, you won't be able to answer my question this time." ”

Staring at Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai faintly, it opened its mouth wide and spit out words with murderous intent: "You say, what is my name?"

Name, how to answer this, they don't know each other! Sikong Shuai was suddenly embarrassed.

But Gu Xiaotian's eyes lit up, for him, this was the simplest question, because his mother had already told him: "I know, your name is Sphinx, and you like to stop people from answering your questions, and if you can't answer them, you will eat people, right?" Actually, you are a cursed monster, and you should have had a pair of wings, but now, where are the wings?"

With a whine, an earth-shattering roar came, and the three lions in front of them suddenly became angry and let out an amazing roar.

The wind was blowing fiercely, and the surrounding trees were swept away, and the strong air flow impacted the sky, and even the sky was darkened. In the distance of the secret realm, some people also discovered the abnormality here, and they just thought it was going to rain, and no one knew what was going on.

The spirit rhino rabbit in his arms shouted: "Don't scream, it's so scary......"

Holding back his fear, Gu Xiaotian said loudly: "I answered correctly, you still have to be angry, do you want to break the contract?"

The last two words rang out like thunder on the Sphinx's head, and it slowly calmed down and kept panting.

It's been tens of thousands of years, and no one has ever answered its three questions, but I didn't expect that it would be easy to wait for someone to come, and it should be able to get out of trouble, who knows that it still didn't succeed.

The golden eyes were full of unwillingness, but the Sphinx had no choice, if it broke its oath, it would be subjected to an even more terrifying backlash, and it could only be obedient.

"Well, you're right, kid, I didn't expect you to hear my name, it's so rare. How would you know?" asked the Sphinx.

"It's not your turn to ask questions yet, it's my turn. ”

When the identity of the three lions was confirmed, Gu Xiaotian was even less afraid, and he said with a smile: "Tell me, what are I thinking about now?"

The Sphinx was stunned: "It's not a matter of knowledge, you are fooling." ”

Sikong Shuai pouted and said: "What knowledge is not knowledge, you didn't say it at the beginning, what type of questions must be asked, we didn't say what kind of questions we have to ask, so we answered you directly, why is it your turn to be so troublesome?"

The spirit rhino rabbit also became bold, and squeaked twice: "Yes, it's trouble! If you can't answer, just admit defeat." ”

The Sphinx gritted its teeth and rattled, it had lived for billions of years, and had never met such a scoundrel child. If other children were stupid when they heard that it was going to eat people, they would still be able to answer the question?

pondered for a long time, but it really couldn't guess what Gu Xiaotian was thinking, so it could only admit defeat: "Okay, I can't answer, I lost." ”

"Sure enough, it's stupid. ”

Gu Xiaotian laughed: "I thought to myself, you are a stupid person, a stupid person! I can't answer this, it seems that you are really a stupid person." ”

"You ......" the Sphinx was annoyed, opening his mouth to roar again.

"Stop yelling, it's ugly. The Spirit Rhinoceros complained.

Gu Xiaotian touched the head of the Spirit Rhino Rabbit and looked at Sikong Shuai: "Xiaoshuai, we won, what should we let it do now?" ”

Sikong Shuai also held his chin, his brain turned up, staring at the big lion up and down, as if he was looking at a fat sheep, and with that cunning look, the Sphinx felt a little hairy in his heart.

These two kids, they can't come up with any ideas, right?

If it had changed to normal times, Gu Xiaotian might have pitted it, but now...... He discussed it with Sikong Shuai, and said, "In this way, we won't embarrass you, you just tell us, where is the most precious and many spirit grass and spirit flowers in this secret realm?"

Unexpectedly, the Sphinx immediately said, "Okay, I'll tell you." Walk through this dense forest all the way forward, go around a large lake, and you will see a mountain, and there is a garden in the valley, and all the precious things in the secret realm are in the garden. ”

"Okay, we believe you, so goodbye. ”

Saying that, Gu Xiaotian hugged the Spirit Rhino Rabbit and moved forward with Sikong Shuai.

When they entered the dense forest, the Sphinx smiled slyly.

These two little children, it won't let go, wait until they enter that garden...... There was still time, and it sensed that there were other people in the secret realm, and it didn't believe that everyone could answer its questions.

A whirlwind blew, and the Sphinx vanished.

Zuo Dong and Shangguan Zixu, who walked from another road, had also found some spirit grass after half a day, but it was far from meeting their expectations.

"Shangguan, we have only picked five five-grade spirit grasses, so much, I'm afraid it's ......" Suddenly, before Zuo Dong's words were finished, he was stunned and stared straight ahead.

Shangguan Zixu followed his gaze, and not far away, a strange lion walked by, with three heads.
