Chapter 484: Into the Dragon Pond (2)
In the blink of an eye, Xu Dong killed two of the same kind of dragons in a row, and the dragon's blood suddenly stained a large area of surging river crimson.
The latter ones, at this time, unexpectedly did not attack Xu Dong, but fought for the corpses of the same kind in the water, and for a while, the water surface churned as if it was boiling, and from time to time there were large pieces of minced meat and internal organs, which floated to the surface of the water with the boiling water.
However, in the blink of an eye, these minced meat and internal organs were devoured by other similar people.
This made Qiao Yanxue, who came back to her senses, want to vomit.
Xu Dong took this opportunity to pull Qiao Yanxue back into the passage at the entrance.
Seeing that it was a little farther away from those things that were still snatching the corpses of the same kind, Qiao Yanxue took a breath and asked, "Xu Dong, your hand is ......?"
Xu Dong raised his left hand, glanced at the head that was still hanging on it, and said, "Fortunately, it didn't hurt the bones, so I got it off......"
Qiao Yanxue knew the ability of Baoyi, seeing that Xu Dong confirmed that it was okay, Qiao Yanxue immediately put her mind at ease, but the bite force of this thing was really amazing, even if the head was broken, biting on Xu Dong's arm, for a while, she couldn't take it down.
Xu Dong said while beating and biting the head of his left hand with a stick: "This thing is so weird, how can you listen to the dragon's greeting?" ”
"As far as I know, these things aren't really dragons!" Qiao Yanxue said while helping Xu Dong.
"Not a real dragon?" Xu Dong was a little puzzled, the horns like tree branches, the scales like fish, the dragon horns like chicken claws, and the body like a snake, this is clearly the legendary dragon!
Qiao Yanxue shook her head and said, "This is actually a rare variant of the salamander. ”
"Mutant salamanders?" Xu Dong stopped what he was doing and asked strangely.
"Hmm......" Qiao Yanxue nodded: "I have checked the information, generally speaking, the size of the salamander is very close to the legendary dragon, however, the real salamander is not big, it can almost be said that it is harmless to people, these here are just variants, so not only is it huge, but also has a fierce temperament, besides, if it is really a legendary dragon, how can an iron chain on its tail be tied?" ”
"Then this so-called dragon scale grass ......," Xu Dong asked with some concern.
"This is indeed true!" Qiao Yanxue helped Xu Dong take off the salamander's head, and said: "Let me tell you this, in fact, the dragon scale grass in our family came from here, but at that time, they didn't have the treasure clothes on your body, and they didn't have a sharp weapon like the stick in your hand, they were able to find the most advanced weapon, which was the 38 big cover at that time." ”
Xu Dong was stunned for a long time, and then said: "Those people outside turned out to be from your Qiao family!" ”
Qiao Yanxue nodded, and shook her head again: "Some are, and some are not......"
Seeing that Xu Dong opened his mouth, as if he had something to say, Qiao Yanxue simply said directly: "Those people other than the people who came out of our Qiao family are the bandits in the cave on the rock wall, and my grandfather spent a lot of money to ask them to help." ”
"......I see," Xu Dong sighed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Qiao Yanxue's grandfather actually disregarded the life and death of so many people, just to get the so-called dragon scale grass, which is really chilling when I think about it.
Along the way, the skeletons that Xu Dong encountered, to say the least, there are more than a hundred, those are more than a hundred living people! Just for a dragon's scale grass!
Qiao Yanxue sighed, looked at the churning water in the distance, and said faintly: "I knew that after you knew the truth of the matter, you would definitely look down on the people of our Qiao family, alas...... In fact, after that time, my grandfather also regretted it very much, so he made a rule that our Qiao family would never set foot here again, and the reason why we moved our family overseas was to avoid this matter. ”
Xu Dong was silent, although Qiao Yanxue's grandfather's approach would not make people feel disdainful, but if Xu Dong was replaced, he would definitely not want to do such a thing, no matter what the reason, it would be more than a hundred lives.
After being silent for a while, Xu Dongcai said: "After falling off the cliff, you know that the dragon scale grass you are looking for is actually here, right?" ”
Qiao Yanxue shook her head again: "When I knew, it was after moving into that cave, but after confirming that the dragon scale grass is here, it was after we fell into this river." ”
Xu Dong sighed, many of the riddles in his heart were basically solved at this moment, but after revealing these mysteries, Xu Dong was not very happy in his heart.
After a long while, Xu Dong said, "Why are you suing me about this? ”
"I don't want to hide it from you forever, and the only one who can save my grandfather is the dragon scale grass, back then, my grandfather ...... It's also to save my grandfather, so ...... So ......" Qiao Yanxue looked at Xu Dong's reaction, and she was also very sad.
"Old Man Qiao is also a Gu poison?" Xu Dong asked as he collected his left arm.
"Hmm......" Qiao Yanxue looked at the water that gradually stopped churning, and said: "When my grandfather was not born, he was given a Gu, and when my grandfather found out, the Gu poison had already invaded my grandfather's bone marrow, otherwise, my grandfather would never have thought of coming to find the dragon scale grass." ”
Xu Dong thought about it for a while, and suddenly remembered something, since Qiao Yanxue was willing to say it now, why not ask it clearly.
"I remember that Yuan Shijin said that just a few years ago, someone came to look for the dragon scale grass, and moreover, he also found it, and it was also from your Qiao family?"
Qiao Yanxue was stunned, and then said: "The one who looked for the dragon scale grass a few years ago was my father, but he ...... It's just that my dad found it, and it's not the real dragon scale grass. ”
No wonder, as soon as Qiao Chusheng heard that Qiao Yanxue was going to come with Xu Dong to find the dragon scale grass that day, his attitude eased a lot, it turned out that he had also come to look for it, but he didn't find it, the shape of the dragon scale grass that Yuan Shijin said was mostly brought by Qiao Chusheng The person who showed his mouth, or deliberately left clues, the purpose was to think that if other people could find it, with Qiao Chusheng's financial resources, it would naturally not be difficult to get it.
Things have come to this point, Qiao Yanxue no longer conceals it at all, Xu Dong naturally can't postpone it, no matter how difficult it is, this dragon scale grass must be obtained.
At this time, the water in the hall was no longer churning, but it could be clearly seen that there were several mutant salamanders swimming in the water, and they even wanted to attack Xu Dong and Qiao Yanxue.
It's just that now, Xu Dong doesn't want to rush to do it, after all, the mutant salamander, in the water, is not to be underestimated, besides, at this time, Xu Dong is also a little hungry.
Since falling off the cliff again, all the way over, basically kept avoiding danger, Xu Dong and Qiao Yanxue haven't eaten anything for a long time, and at this time, they are thirsty and hungry, which is also a natural thing.
However, when he fell off the cliff again, the backpack containing food also fell into the river, and now, even if he is hungry, there is no dry food to eat.
Xu Dong thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that a few days ago, when he was on the cliff, he ate very little because he was afraid that he would not be able to make up for it, and there should be a lot of leftovers, and he had the rest in the Qiankun bag.
Thinking of this, Xu Dong hurriedly stretched out his hand and took out the remaining ginseng.
In the days on the cliff, the ginseng eaten was basically the roots, a pair of "hands", a pair of "feet" of ginseng, and the "head" the size of a ping-pong ball were eaten, and now there is still most of the "body" left.
Xu Dong took the "body" of the ginseng, squeezed the ginseng into two sections with his hands, and said to Qiao Yanxue: "This is the only thing we can eat, let's pad our stomach first." ”
In fact, by this time, Qiao Yanxue was so hungry that her stomach growled, and she didn't say it because Qiao Yanxue knew that all the food had been thrown away a long time ago, and there was nothing to eat.
Now when he saw Xu Dong take out the remaining ginseng, he hesitated slightly, but still reached out and took half of the ginseng in his hand.
Seeing that Qiao Yanxue took the ginseng, Xu Dong didn't say more, brought half of the ginseng to his mouth, and ate it raw like eating a radish.
To be honest, eating raw ginseng doesn't taste good, the smell of medicine is almost pungent, and there are many fibers in the ginseng body, which is very laborious to eat.
However, Xu Dong can't care so much, when he is hungry, everything he eats is very sweet.
Qiao Yanxue had a little difficulty eating, she bit a little bite, and she didn't swallow it for a long time.
What Xu Dong and Qiao Yanxue didn't expect was that the medicinal smell of ginseng actually stimulated those mutant salamanders who had calmed down.
All of a sudden, the water in the entire hall churned again as if it had been boiled, and even after a long time, it was silent, and the mutant salamander that had tied its tail suddenly screamed "...... ang".
Xu Dongsan swallowed the ginseng in his hand into his stomach in two bites, and shouted: "It's not good, we seem to have made a mistake......
Qiao Yanxue also exclaimed: "The sense of smell of these things is much more sensitive than that of humans...... Now what? ”
"Beat it ......" not long after, Xu Dong only felt that there was a fire flowing around and scorching in the hundreds of limbs, and his body was a little uncomfortable for a while.
And those mutant salamanders also seemed to smell the elixir, and the mutant salamander in the pool with its tail tied to it crawled to the shore again, pulling the iron chain with a rattling sound, and the roar of "Ang Ang ......" was also endless.
The other several mutant salamanders were also extremely fast and pounced on Xu Dong and Qiao Yanxue.
Xu Dong endured the fire-like roasting in his body, picked up the stick, and pounced on it without hesitation, and in an instant, the water splashed and roared in the hall.
A mutant salamander at the front, seeing Xu Dong pounced on him, opened his bloody mouth, and bit down on his head at Xu Dong, Xu Dong did not dodge or dodge, the stick in his hand looked at the sky and stabbed it, impartially, the stick from the mouth of this salamander, all the way through the skull, this salamander immediately burst out of the brain, and was paralyzed.
Before its mouth could close, Xu Dong had already pulled out the stick.
A salamander that followed, a mouth, bit from Xu Dong's left side, Xu Dong stretched out his left hand, and a punch of "Bah" hit the salamander's nose, and suddenly his arm penetrated into the salamander's head, and when Xu Dong pulled out his left arm, the salamander's brain was sprayed out.
