Chapter 31: Arrival
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other.
After relieving his breath, Daocheng found that he could vaguely feel the presence of Yuan Qi, and he could even control its flow speed and direction slightly.
Scar touched his son's qi veins and announced in surprise that his vitality was at least twice as high.
"Awesome!" Although he was accustomed to the degree of perversion of this kid, Scar couldn't help but sigh.
"It's too strong by nature!" the basic training that I think should focus on is not difficult for him at all," Scar said secretly, "Maybe I should let go of my hands and feet......"
......
After the dung wolf attack, the trip returned to peace.
Dao Cheng, as always, indulges in the world, hitting stones, chasing the wind, like a carefree bird.
From east to north, gradually, the wildebeest plain was left behind, and the figures of the father and son were hidden in the heavy mountains.
As they went deeper and deeper into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, the two encountered more and more demonic beasts.
All kinds of magical beasts that have never been seen before dazzle the knife. Scar is responsible for explaining, what is his name, what are his specialties, and how to deal with them, one by one.
Sometimes, he would even encounter monsters that Scar didn't recognize, which deepened his desire to go to the city to buy books.
The last time the blood crystal bathed, Daocheng's body skyrocketed, and he became a half-sized guy from a little guy, but his cognition had to accumulate little by little. With a ten-year-old body and a six-year-old insight, Scar knows very well that others will only treat you as a fool and will not treat you as a pervert. At that time, he had the idea of buying a book for his son to read, but he never had the opportunity, and Daocheng could only read the family tree to quench his thirst.
Now, approaching the main city of Elephant Mountain, this thought is no longer out of reach, and Scar has even figured out what books to buy.
"Huh, ahh!"
Scar's musings were interrupted by the roar of the pig beast, and he looked intently, but it was the second-order little pig's talisman mud armor that was shattered by the stick made of the knife.
Dao Cheng looked excited, brandished a stick that was as long as his body, opened and closed widely, and approached strongly, and the pig beast lost its protective mud armor, and hummed and chirped in pain, and kept retreating.
Seeing that he was invincible, Dao Cheng lost interest. Jumping up, he slammed it on the head of the pig beast, and the pig beast slammed into it, kicked its legs, and fell straight to the ground.
"How's it going, Daddy?" said the young man, holding a stick, and looked at Scar excitedly.
Scar nodded and gave a thumbs up.
"I really don't want to praise you, I'm afraid you'll be proud. But you kid did ...... Really...... I don't have anything to say, perfect!" Scar sighed, "I found three types of magical beasts, the speed, the flexibility, and the power, but you easily defeated each of them. ”
"No tricks!"
"Even, I see that you kid seems to be intent on using their expertise against them. ”
"Isn't it?"
Dao Cheng stuck out his tongue, his little face was slightly red, and he said a little proudly: "Ah, you found out by Dad." ”
"You're quite perverted!" Scar laughed, "crush others in what they do best, and slap them in the face professionally?"
"What's the matter!" Dao Cheng wrinkled, "I'm not as bad as you say!"
"I just...... It's just that...... I think that's interesting. ”
"Daddy, think about it, just look for the wind rabbit, the green monkey, and the little body, I want to solve them, two stones are enough! And this stupid pig beast, I don't even have to make a move, I can lure it to crash into a tree and die. ”
"But that's not fun. ”
"You say yes?"
"Yes~" Scar was a little speechless, he thought that his son had seen through his thoughts, and he did it for the sake of experience.
It turned out to be for fun......
"Well, the effect is the same anyway. ”
Scar glanced at the kid again, and couldn't help but say: "Actually, your unintentional appearance is more than deliberately hitting the enemy, to be honest, I'm a little sad for the person who will provoke you in the future." ”
"What do you mean?" Daocheng blinked innocently and scratched his head.
Scar smiled helplessly, "You kid, sometimes I think you're smart, I don't need to say anything, I know everything, and sometimes I think you're so simple and cute, of course, it's hateful to your enemies." ”
"Inexplicable...... "Daddy, are you praising me or scolding me?"
"Heh, when you grow up, you'll understand what I mean. Scar smiled, "Say more, hurry up!"
......
The mountain road is rugged, and of course, it is not difficult for a father and son with special training.
Finally, on the morning of the eighth day of leaving home, after the two of them crossed one mountain after another, their eyes suddenly opened up, as if the power that created the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range had forgotten this piece, and a flat land appeared within the mountains.
White ground, to be exact.
There was not a single tree or grass on the land, it was all broken sand and gravel, reflecting white light in the sunlight.
At the end of the white field, there are several gray slopes, again without a trace of green. Faintly, Daocheng seemed to see houses sitting on the hillside.
"Arrived?"
"It's here!"
Father and son looked at each other and smiled, and they could both feel each other's joy.
Carefully tread through the gravel area to the outermost ash mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, an old man with white hair was basking in the sun on a huge carved stone chair.
Scar stepped forward, hugged his fists and said, "Uncle, where does Shi Zhongxiong's family live?"
"Shi Shixiong?" the old man looked confused, tilting his ears sideways to look at Scar.
"This old man's ears are not good?" Scar frowned, and rushed into the old man's ear and shouted, "Shi Zhongxiong!"
"What are the stones?" the old man was even more confused.
"Yes, old man, you can rest!" Scar shook his head helplessly, "I'm so deaf, I'll have to ask someone more." ”
Dao Cheng saw the banter on the corner of the old man's mouth, he stepped forward, squatted beside the old man, took his rough big hand, and showed a big smile.
"Grandpa, I'd like to ask you about someone. ”
"Don't bother with it, big boy. Scar snorted, and as he spoke, he was about to pull the knife and leave.
The old man glanced at Scar, then looked at Dao Cheng with a smile, and said clearly: "Little guy, who do you want to ask?"
"Shi Zhongxiong's stone, Shi Zhongxiong's Zhong, Shi Zhongxiong's Xiong. Dao Cheng blinked, word by word.
The old man smiled, "Silly boy, grandpa is not deaf, there is no need to be like this." Shi Zhongxiong is right, the last mountain, the one on the top of the mountain is him. ”
"Oh, got it, thank you Grandpa!" the little guy smiled sweetly, pulled the somewhat stunned Scar, and waved his hand at the old man.
"Go ahead. The old man also waved his hand and muttered, "Such an adult, with an evil look, and I don't know how to be polite, not even as a child." ”
Scar's footsteps paused, Dao Cheng hurriedly pulled, Scar stomped his foot, and sped up his pace.
Turning a corner, Scar said angrily with a dark face: "This old man, deliberately tricking me, really wants to beat him." ”
Dao Cheng covered his stomach and leaned back with a smile.
"I'm laughing to death. ”
"I thought that the old man would tease you all over again?"
"If he does, I promise I won't kill him. "Scar's face is terrifyingly black, it's embarrassing, when have you ever suffered such a loss.
"Also, where do I have a fierce look, isn't it just a scar!" Scar said angrily, and then smiled shyly, "Hua Niang also said that this is more manly charming!"
glanced at Dao Cheng and found that he was smiling even more happily, Scar's old face was red, and he slapped him on the back of the head.
"Don't laugh, let's go!"
......
Going around and around, they came to the last gray mountain, climbed up, and saw the moment they saw the top of the slope, the father and son were shocked.
"This ...... This...... This!" Scar stammered, "This is the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range!"
The giant elephant that bows its head to draw water, the sky dragon that spreads its wings and flies high, and the sky wolf who growls at the moon......
"This is the scene I saw from afar!"
"There's more!" Scar was pleasantly surprised.
He put down his sword and ran over excitedly.
"This winged like a disk should be the legendary three-legged golden crow, and the Howling Moon Wolf is a mortal enemy. ”
"These four hooves should be the Yanlin Demon Lion......
"This person with a fishtail should be a mermaid demon ......"
"This winged tiger beast...... It should be the legendary Wind White Tiger. ”
"The last one in the shape of an ant should be an amethyst clam!"
"Eight King Mountains, I've seen them all!" Scar suddenly gave birth to a feeling of completeness.
After living in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range for so many years, it was the first time he had seen the face of the Eight Great Kings Mountain, although it was only a shrunken sculpture, it was still enough to move him.
I kind of want to cry......
Dao Cheng also walked over, looking at this lifelike stone sculpture with his mouth wide open, and vaguely he knew what it was.
"Eight Kings Mountain?"
"This wife is too powerful!"
Indescribable shock.
Even, he had the idea of wanting to worship......
"How's it going?"
The words full of pride came, and the two of them followed the sound to look, but it was Shi Zhongxiong, who was standing at the door of the cave with his arms crossed.
"It's spectacular!" Shi Zhongxiong looked proud.
"Uncle Shi!" Dao Cheng shouted in surprise, ran over with a smoke, and said with wide eyes, "Uncle, is this carved by you?"
"Hmm~" Shi Zhongxiong said with a deep smile, "I have my credit!"
"To be precise, this is the result of three generations of my Shi family. ”
"My grandfather, my father, and me!"
Daocheng looked at him with a look of adoration, his little hands clenched, his lip bitten, and his mouth moved and moved.
"What, I like it, I can't give it to you!" Shi Zhongxiong smiled, "This is my family's heirloom!"
"No, no, no!" the young man shook his head like a rattle, his little face flushed, and he looked at Scar as if he were walking by for help.
Scar looked at his expectant look, smiled, and said to Shi Zhongxiong: "I think this kid wants to learn carving from you." Really, is it a child?"
"Yes!" Daocheng nodded heavily, and immediately looked at Shi Zhongxiong hopefully.
Shi Zhongxiong smiled without saying a word, and Scar said: "Brother, you don't need to give me face, you can't teach, you don't want to teach, even if you open your mouth, my brother won't mind." ”
"Brother Dao, I'm afraid you can't bear this child. Shi Zhongxiong smiled, "I can't learn this craft in a day or two. ”
