Chapter 18: The Sea Clan Merman
Meng Yun leaned against the door of the cave, and the turtle master walked around in front of him, and then listened to it complain, "What kind of nerves do you have?
"Her mission is to save her people, and we shouldn't be doing us a disservice at this time," Meng Yun patiently explained.
Hearing this, the turtle master stopped and looked up at him and said, "But have you ever wondered why she told you these secrets?"
"I don't know, probably because I don't want us to misunderstand," Meng Yun didn't think deeply, he didn't know what Qing Yi thought, as long as the original intention was good.
"It's over, I think you're lost in the little girl," said the turtle master, picking up a stone and throwing it into the pool.
"What nonsense," Meng Yun hurriedly reached out and grabbed the turtle master, stopping it from continuing to throw stones and make trouble, and at the same time comforted again, "You have also seen how fierce those barbarian soldiers are, if you help her, it is equivalent to helping a lot of innocent people, think about it, this is a good thing." ”
"Why didn't I hear what was going on with me here?" Master Turtle shook off his restraints and clapped his hands after throwing the stone in his hand.
Meng Yun said with a smile, "Just accumulate yin virtue, it's okay, right?"
"Bah, are you so kind? To be honest, do you have a crush on someone?" said the turtle master with a wicked smile on his face.
"I like your size," Meng Yun rolled his eyes helplessly, and then continued, "I told you that I am a soldier, I swore to protect my country and people, and what she is doing now is also to save her people, I just think it is the right thing to do, that's all." ”
Hearing this, the turtle master restrained his smile, touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "I seem to understand, are you sympathizing with her?"
"It's not sympathy, it's empathy," Meng Yun said with a wave of his hand.
This world is not his world, and Qingyi is not a weak protector, so he naturally does not need his sympathy, but the other party reminds him of himself, and the two have different identities and environments, but they shoulder the same mission.
The turtle master lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and said to him, "Are all your people like you?"
"What?"
"Smelly temper," said the turtle with a grin.
"Do you think I have a bad temper?" Meng Yun laughed.
"Anyway, I'm stubborn to death," said Master Turtle with a wave of his hand.
"Don't talk about this," Meng Yun saw that the turtle master was not holding on to this matter, reached out and patted its shoulder and said, "Let's go and catch the fish with a torch ......"
The waterhole in front of the cave is too small, and the water is full of small fish and shrimp that can't be caught, so if you want to catch a big fish, you have to go to the big waterfall on the east side, because the waterhole there is deep, the river is wide, and you can also soak in a hot spring by the way.
The temperature is very low at night, the weather is cloudy, and the knee-high river water is occasionally flickered by fish.
Meng Yun held a homemade harpoon and observed the water surface, and the turtle master sat on the reef in the water with a torch, "Do you want to learn to practice qi?"
"No," Meng Yun said casually.
"Why?" asked the turtle master in confusion.
"As far as I know, we don't have this kind of qi there, and we won't need it when we go back to school," Meng Yun said without raising his head.
"But have you ever thought that if she leaves, we will have to be trapped here, and if there is no aura cultivation, within two nights out of this valley, we will both have to feed the wolves, believe it or not?" said the turtle master and glanced in the direction of the cave.
Meng Yun didn't answer immediately, at the moment he was concentrating on searching for his prey, and it wasn't until a few seconds later that he said, "Is it easy to practice qi?"
"If it were easy, I'm afraid the whole world would be the territory of your human race," said the turtle master with a pout.
"But how can you be sure that I can practice qi?" Meng Yun had more or less heard from the turtle master that not just anyone could practice qi and become a wizard.
First of all, you must have the corresponding bloodline qualifications, and secondly, you must have a strong divine sense, and then you must have the conditions to sense the existence of qi, which is the so-called combination of essence and spirit.
"I believe Old Man Qi, he would rather leave his people behind than save you, I think he must have found something in you," Master Turtle paused at this point, and then continued, "I don't know what you're going to do, but if you want to do your thing, you have to listen to me." ”
"So, what do you want me to do?" Meng Yun suddenly raised his head and said, and the turtle master reminded him of the second half of his words.
At that time, the wizard could have saved the clansmen first, but the other party did not do so, but directly took him out of the village, which he really hadn't thought about before.
"It's not simple, you can ask the little girl to help you measure your bloodline, and by the way, ask her for the method of practicing qi," the turtle master said and winked at him.
Meng Yun directly and selectively ignored it, and at the same time said angrily, "Let's not say what bloodline to measure, but you asked me to ask someone for a qi training cheat?
"What I asked you to ask for is just an ordinary qi cultivation method, not a spell cheat," the turtle master corrected, "Besides, as long as we keep our mouths shut, even if it is a cheat, we will accept it all." ”
"How do you know that if I want someone to give it, besides, even if I get the qi training method, are you sure I can practice qi?" Meng Yun said with a suspicious face.
Master Turtle's words are inconsistent, a few words ago he said that it was not easy to practice qi, but now it seems that he has become confident again.
"First, I'm sure you want a little girl to give it, because I can see that she has a good impression of you," Master Turtle smiled and stretched out two fingers, "Second, don't worry if you can practice qi, as far as I know, the human race can practice qi." ”
Seeing that he was interested, the turtle master continued, "However, the bloodline physique is different, and the time required by each person is also very different. ”
Meng Yun didn't understand the second half of the turtle master's sentence, "What does this mean?"
"That is to say, the cultivation speed of a person with pure blood is like a peng bird in the sky, which can travel thousands of miles a day, but the speed of a person with mixed blood is not as good as that of a lame snail," the turtle master said with some hatred, "This latter cultivation is a waste of time, and there will not be much gain until death, but it is always good for longevity." ”
Meng Yun frowned when he heard this, "Why is there such a big gap? What if I am this lame snail?"
"Hey, to the point, I don't know if you're a snail or not, and I can't test your bloodline, but we might as well trust Old Man Qi and let the little girl help, it's just a matter of raising hands anyway," Master Turtle said lightly.
"This ...... I don't want to beg anyone," Meng Yun hesitated.
"Cut, look at your cowardice, where did the momentum of killing barbarians go?"
"It's useless to provoke me, I don't have the habit of begging people," Meng Yun said and looked down at his feet, as if something had touched his ankle just now.
"Are you embarrassed to beg?" or are you embarrassed to beg this little girl?" said the turtle master disappreciatively, holding the torch and shaking it in front of his eyes, "Come and tell me about it, what does the little girl look like?"
"Fuck it," Meng Yun hurriedly turned off his torch and shouted, while stabbing the harpoon down, "Your uncle let it run away......
Qingyi is indeed very beautiful, more beautiful than the snowflake goddess dragon, but Qingyi is not cold, just the opposite, Qingyi has a good personality and is approachable.
It is indeed easier to catch fish by lighting a campfire at night, many animals have phototaxis, but there is a fatal problem, it is a little cold in the middle of the night.
Half an hour later, the two of them hurriedly finished catching fish, a fire rose at the entrance of the cave, and after hastily eating, they returned to sleep in the water curtain cave.
The old turtle liked to snore when he slept, so that he did not fall asleep at first, until later, before he knew it, he fell asleep in a daze.
I don't know how long he fell asleep, Meng Yun felt someone slap him on the face, and shouted in a low voice while patting, "Wake up, don't sleep." ”
Meng Yun opened his eyes with a glare, "It's dawning so soon?"
"It's not dawn, and there seems to be movement outside," Lord Turtle looked nervously at the entrance of the cave.
"What's going on?" Meng Yun yawned.
"Shh
Meng Yun slowed down the rhythm of his breathing when he heard this, pricked up his ears and listened carefully, "plop plop" There seemed to be someone smashing stones outside, and the movement was not small.
At this moment, Master Turtle lowered his voice again and said, "What should I do?"
Meng Yun looked back at the depths of the cave, the golden light emitted by Qing Yi's body was reflected on the wall in the corner, and the golden light seemed to be stronger than some time before, "How can she still sit still?"
"I don't know, maybe it's the closure of the six senses," the turtle master said with some concern.
"Maybe it's an animal that drinks water," Meng Yun said with some mistaken feelings.
Master Turtle knew that he was pretending to be calm, "When your domestic animals drink water, they still like to smash stones?"
Just as the turtle master was speaking, there was a sound of wading outside the cave, and the movement became clearer and clearer, indicating that the other party should have discovered something.
Meng Yun secretly screamed in his heart, probably because of the weather, recently, the water volume of the water curtain waterfall outside the cave has been decreasing day by day, and the other party has found the refracted fire.
Thinking of this, Meng Yun quickly turned around and extinguished the bonfire with sand, and at the same time said to the turtle master, "You go inside and hide." ”
"You be careful," Master Turtle knew that staying here was also a drag.
After completely extinguishing the fire, Meng Yun took out the broken copper knife from his waist and abdomen, took a few steps forward and got up and hid to the back edge of the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, and watched the entrance of the cave vigilantly.
At this moment, the sound of wading suddenly disappeared, and it changed to the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, but then, the other party seemed to hesitate when he came in.
The fire had not been completely extinguished, and the sparks were still shining on the unburned wood chips, and Meng Yun could almost confirm that the other party had seen them.
As for the identity of the outsider, Meng Yun thought of the Ice Palace wizard who was chasing and killing, if it was really as he guessed, he might not be able to beat this guy.
The other party didn't let him wait too long, and in the slight light at the entrance of the cave, a vague figure quickly appeared.
Meng Yun slowed the pace of his breathing, watching the movement of the shadows on the ground, and at the same time prepared for a fight.
However, the shadow was more cautious than he thought, moving slowly against the wall, and did not mean to enter rashly.
The two were only half a wall apart at the moment, and Meng Yun could almost hear each other's breathing, and at this moment, this figure finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and cautiously stepped forward with one foot.
Meng Yun quietly put away his weapon, directly stepped forward and grabbed his neck, quickly dragged him to the ground, followed closely behind, and immediately deceived himself to grab the lock hand, "Don't try to use spells, otherwise I will immediately break your neck, believe it or not?"
"The little one doesn't know that the adults are practicing in seclusion here, and they hope to forgive their sins," the other party was frightened by his words, and immediately stopped struggling and begged for mercy.
The cave was blinded by the black lights, and he could barely see anything clearly, so Meng Yun naturally didn't dare to relax his vigilance easily, so he asked in a cold voice, "Who are you?"
"The small ones don't ......"
At this moment, the turtle master suddenly appeared and interrupted the other party's words, "Tut, this guy is a mermaid of the Sea Clan........."
