Chapter Seventy-Three: Du Yu Toad.
After listening to the history of the Five Poisons Sect at the moment, Zheng Lin compared it with the background of the Five Poisons Sect in his impression, and found that there were still many different places, some characters and allusions that did not appear in the background of the game, etc., and many of them were different maps, scenes, etc., but he didn't particularly care about these, after all, he still had to get used to this strange world, and take one step at a time.
That night, Zheng Lin rested very well in Nayou's room, which was surrounded by trees, the environment was quiet, and at night, it was quiet and peaceful, especially suitable for people to live in. There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the next day, Zheng Lin got up early, and seeing that Nayou was still sleeping, he gently closed the door and went for a morning run around the neighborhood, which is also a good habit developed in the Pure Yang Palace, the temperature in the Pure Yang Palace is relatively cold, and the Five Poisons Sect gives people the feeling that it is cold, but here it is like spring all year round, maybe it is the psychological pressure that will make Zheng Lin feel a chill.
Half an hour later, Zheng Lin returned to Shuding Village, at this time Nayou had already made breakfast, although there was only porridge and eggs, but for Zheng Lin, it was enough, and when eating, Nayou opened his mouth and asked, "Have you thought about what kind of holy beast you want to contract?" I'll take you to pick one later. ”
Zheng Lin took a sip of rice porridge and nodded: "I thought about it last night, I think I'm still suitable for Jade Toad, and only if I can survive can I have the capital to fight." ”
Nayou smiled, handed the peeled egg to Zheng Lin, picked up the bowl and began to drink porridge, after breakfast, Nayou cleaned up, and prepared to take Zheng Lin to pick the jade toad, in the Five Poisons Sect, there are several places to raise the Five Poison Beasts and Bi Butterfly, and the closest to them is near the former camp of the Medicine Valley where Nayou went before, that is, the Five Poison Beasts raised by Xiao Xueyun and Old Man Xiao. Generally, Xiao Xueyun is mainly responsible for taking care of domestic animals, and occasionally she and her grandfather go to take care of the Five Poison Holy Beasts.
When Nayou took Zheng Lin over, it was already three poles in the sun, Xiao Xueyun was playing with the puppy, and when she saw Nayou coming, she nodded slightly, Nayou stepped forward and said, "Is Grandpa Xiao here?" This is my apprentice, who has come to select the Five Poison Holy Beasts today. ”
Xiao Xueyun glanced at Zheng Lin, pointed not far away, Nayou turned her head and found the old man Xiao in the vegetable field, after thanking Xiao Xueyun, she took Zheng Lin over, Zheng Lin looked back at Xiao Xueyun who was squatting there, and asked, "Master, what's wrong with her?" It seems to be rude to you. ”
"It doesn't matter, she treats everyone the same, she doesn't like to talk since she was a child, she lives with Grandpa Xiao, and she doesn't know who her parents are or where her home is, so she has lived with the Five Poison Holy Beasts and these domestic animals since she was a child, and rarely communicates with people, don't misunderstand her."
Hearing Nayou's explanation, Zheng Lin couldn't help but glance at Xiao Xueyun more, he couldn't figure out what it would be like for a person not to communicate with outsiders. The two walked to the vegetable field, and Nayou shouted, "Grandpa Xiao, we want to pick a jade toad." ”
At this time, Old Man Xiao was fertilizing the vegetable field, which was actually dung, in addition to raising the Five Poisons Holy Beast, he also had to plant vegetables and pick dung, but this could be regarded as repaying the kindness of the Five Poisons Sect for saving them and taking them in. After the old man Xiao finished fertilizing the vegetable field, he went back with him, and took Nayou and the two to the waterhole on the side of the mountain, and said.
"This is the place where the spirit snake and the jade toad are raised, you can pick it yourself, tell me when you pick it, I will help you catch it, if you go in easily, you will definitely be attacked by them, don't make your own decisions."
Nayou and Zheng Lin looked left and right, pointing to a certain jade toad from time to time to discuss, and finally, Nayou picked a bright color and a jade toad that looked particularly spiritual for Zheng Lin, although it was not very big, but it was also a superb jade toad.
The two of them returned to the main altar with the jade toad, at this time Qu Yun had already arranged the formation to wait for them, as soon as the two entered, Qu Yun instructed Zheng Lin to sit in the center of the magic circle, and said: "Now I want to use the unique magic circle of this sect to help you contract this jade toad, you must stick to your body and mind, do not have distracting thoughts, I don't call you, you must not move, when the contract is made, you will experience the pain of the jade toad's bone-devouring, I hope you can endure it." ”
Zheng Lin sat down cross-legged in the circle according to Qu Yun's instructions, his hands were folded on his lap, Qu Yun let all the people around him retreat, and he drove the power of the circle around, at the beginning, around Zheng Lin, a total of five flags appeared, rotating counterclockwise around his body, the five flags had a total of five colors, and these flags formed an energy network on the way to the movement, covering Zheng Lin in it, and then, a yellow light shot into Zheng Lin's body.
"Hmm..." Zheng Lin let out a painful moan, but he didn't dare to move at all, endured the pain, and didn't dare to make any more sounds, just as Qu Yun said, Zheng Lin at this time was experiencing the pain like a jade toad devouring bones, the beads of sweat on his forehead fell down his cheeks, and the clothes on his back were also wet, Zheng Lin could clearly feel his rapid and irregular breathing, as if he couldn't help it.
Suddenly, a small hand lightly touched Zheng Lin's forehead, and suddenly, a cool feeling permeated his whole body, and even the pain became numb, and it didn't seem to hurt so much. A moment later, Qu Yun's voice rang out.
"Alright, you get up."
Zheng Lin slowly opened his eyes, and when he stood up, he felt that his body was much more relaxed, and it seemed that his strength had increased a lot, Qu Yun wiped the beads of sweat and said with a smile: "Congratulations, the contract is successful, good luck, it's still a superb jade toad, plus the forging of pure bones, your body is also a lot stronger, and it has discharged many impurities of internal force in your body, it seems that your internal breath cultivation has reached twenty-four levels, continue to work hard." ”。
When he left Chang'an, Zheng Lin was still twenty-three, and this contract can be regarded as a kind of forging, which discharges many impurities in his body, making his internal force more condensed and vigorous, which means that his strength has gone up to another level.
After the contract was completed, Qu Yun gave Zheng Lin a dream flute, which can be regarded as officially joining the Five Poisons Sect, when he summoned his jade toad for the first time, the excited sense of accomplishment still made him very satisfied, and his jade toad, looking full of energy, looked up at Zheng Lin, the firmness and confidence revealed in his eyes made Zheng Lin full of joy, and this jade toad will also accompany Zheng Lin for the rest of his life, resisting all obstacles and injuries for him.
