Chapter 14: Catching a Fish in Distress
Li Jie's cultivation is officially on the right track, participating in morning training during the day to improve his physical fitness, and constantly absorbing magical elements at other times.
Although magic cultivation is extremely mentally draining, after the "Walma's Last Works" was activated, Li Jie had no worries about this.
And in the continuous practice, Li Jie found that he could also cultivate when he entered the dream space, not only did he get twice the result with half the effort, but also did not consume his own spiritual power!
Moreover, when he cultivates in the dream space, his body in reality will also cultivate together.
This made Li Jie full of enthusiasm for cultivation.
Under the advice of the old village chief, Xiao Hei rarely came to annoy him, that is, he had to go fishing in the Sunset Forest every few days.
It's not a big problem for Li Jie, he can cultivate anywhere anyway.
Generally, during the day, they absorb the light attribute magic elements into the body, and at night when the light elements are too small, they use mental power to control the light elements that have been absorbed by themselves.
The first time he quenched his body, it was very difficult, and the progress was very slow, but because of "Walmart's posthumous work", Li Jie's cultivation speed was still much faster than others.
But you can't always keep cultivating, and the old village chief also instructed you to combine work and rest, otherwise you will be prone to nervousness.
Catching up with a good weather, Li Jie planned to go out for a walk.
Thinking that he accompanied Xiao Hei to fish at night every time, and never helped him catch fish in person, Li Jie was also moved.
He's a very precious one now, his magical war pet.
Li Jie went to the old village chief's study to check the books, and the kind of glowing fish that Xiao Hei likes to eat is called fluorescent fish.
It is not easy to be spotted during the day, but it is easy to catch when it is unresponsive, and it glows at night but has a quick response.
Fishing rod, borrowed directly from the old village chief.
Bait is a fishy grass that is usually found in rivers where there are fluorescent fish.
Li Jie has seen the appearance of this fish grass in the book, and it is relatively easy to recognize.
Li Jie didn't open a magic space in his body to store items like Xiao Hei, and he didn't have a magic bracelet, so he had to hold the fishing rod in his hand.
With Xiao Hei sleeping soundly on his head, he set off for the Sunset Forest.
The Sunset Forest during the day is not the same place at night, and Li Jie groped for the location of the fluorescent fish from memory.
After some tossing, he finally heard the sound of water nearby, Li Jie instantly became energetic, and sped up and walked along the sound.
But Li Jie, who came to the water's edge, was soon disappointed, because the stream was very shallow and the water was very clear, Li Jie cheered up 120,000 spirits, stared at the water, and didn't see a fish for a long time.
"Mistaken? Isn't it here? Li Jie was a little frustrated.
Looking at a certain meow that was reflected in the water and sleeping above his head, he poked its head with some complaint, "Sleep, sleep, sleep so dead, like a pig." ”
I don't know if I was unhappy with being poked, or if I was dissatisfied with Li Jie's broken thoughts, Xiao Hei called out to Li Jie's face with one paw, leaving a red cat's paw print.
Because of the contract, Xiao Hei can't cause any substantial damage to Li Jie, otherwise with Xiao Hei's current state of being unsealed, one claw can completely slap him to death.
"Hold a grass, hit someone without slapping your face, dare to ruin Lao Tzu's appearance, Lao Tzu fought with you!"
In fact, Li Jie is just a mouthpiece, firstly, he is not Xiao Hei's opponent at all, and secondly, who doesn't take his cat as the master?
Li Jie looked at his face in the water, and Xiao Hei who turned over and continued to sleep, he was so angry in his heart.
But there is nothing to do, in the final analysis, it is because he is too weak, so he can't even tame his pet!
The desire to become stronger made him unconsciously clench his fists.
Well, forget it, let's look for fish first.
Otherwise, what else could a junior magic apprentice do on his own?
Improving strength is the first key.
Li Jie resigned himself to looking all the way down the stream, and Xiao Hei, who was lying on top of his head, woke up once, saw that Li Jie was still looking for fish, and muttered in a low voice: "Idiot." ”
I continued to sleep again, anyway, it wouldn't tell Li Jie that it was hundreds of times more difficult to find fluorescent fish during the day than described in the book.
The stream winds its way down the sunset forest from top to bottom, with no source in sight.
Li Jie had unconsciously gone farther and farther, beyond the range of the edge of the Sunset Forest, and began to enter the interior of the Sunset Forest.
Although the forest during the day is not as quiet as at night, the strange silence around him at the moment still makes Li Jie's heart a little hairy.
The nerves were too tense so that Li Jie retreated.
Since I haven't been able to find it for so long, I might as well go back first.
Just come back in the evening.
Inside the Sunset Forest, there are always some powerful magical creatures haunting, even experienced old hunters dare not go deep easily, and no one is sure that one day their character will explode and encounter such one.
The first time he came here, he encountered powerful magical creatures, and of course Li Jie didn't have such bad luck.
At this moment, the fierce boar facing Li Jie and baring his long fangs didn't want to show his kindness to the guy who broke into his territory.
Li Jie confronted the wild boar in line with the principle that if the enemy does not move, I will not move, and suddenly, the wild boar did not say a word, and came towards him with a sigh.
Those two big fangs aren't decorations, they have to be explained here, right?
Li Jie turned around and ran desperately.
In fact, if Xiao Hei released a little breath, this wild boar would not dare to make a mistake at all, and it is estimated that he would have to be scared away from afar.
But Xiao Hei didn't care, he just continued to sleep comfortably.
Not to mention that this is just an ordinary wild boar without a little magic power, even if it is a magical creature, it does not threaten the life and death of its little black adult, so it is too lazy to care.
As for Li Jie, that's not the category it considers, if it can make Li Jie suffer a little more, it is quite willing!
Li Jie shouted while running for his life: "Xiao Hei, wake up quickly!" The eyebrows are burned! ”
Even saving someone's life and creating a seventh-level floating slaughter came out of Li Jie's mouth, but a certain meow was indifferent, this is the evil result of too poor a relationship!
The master-slave contract is not a life and death contract, and the pet will die when the owner dies, and the master-slave contract just allows the pet to obey the owner's orders under certain conditions.
The difference in strength between Li Jie and Xiao Hei is too great, and he is not quite able to command Xiao Hei.
Fortunately, after Li Jie came to Huacun, his physical fitness has improved a lot, and in the face of threats such as being killed by the other party's big guy at any time, he has stimulated a lot of potential, and the one who runs is called fast!
However, this wild boar is not only strong, but also extremely fast, chasing closely behind Li Jie.
"Little Black ...... Call...... Help."
Li Jie gasped heavily, and after the potential was released, although he broke through the limit of speed, the fatigue doubled.
Li Jie felt that he could fall to the ground at any time.
If he dies like this, it's too much.
He Li Jieke has just touched the door of the magic world, and he hasn't tasted any sweetness!
"What to do? What to do? ”
"Ah, yes! Pigs can't climb trees. ”
In the face of life and death, Li Jie forgot everything, and now he finally remembered something useful from the beginning.
But Li Jie forgot that this is not the earth.
Fortunately, it was in the forest at this time, and there were many trees.
Li Jie quickly climbed up a tree that looked quite stout, and sat on the branch holding the trunk of the tree, panting violently.
Looking at the wild boars whirling under the trees, I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let you chase Lao Tzu, stupid pig! I can't get up! Hahaha...... Ahem......"
Before the cough stopped, Li Jie felt the trunk of the tree he was holding shake violently.
Looking under the tree, Li Jie's courage was about to burst.
His grandmother's, the pig was slamming into the tree.
It looks like it won't be long before the sturdy-looking tree is going to be hit.
If this height is dropped, Li Jie will be crippled if he is not dead.
"Damn, what kind of grudge!"
This pig is too persistent!
After thinking about it, Li Jie began to carefully climb up along the trunk of the tree, and when the tree finally couldn't withstand the strong impact again and again, and fell down, Li Jie calculated the height he was currently at, and when the tree fell, it was just within the height range that he could safely jump in.
With a bang, the big tree smashed the ground out of a pit, Li Jie hugged the trunk of the tree tightly, and after buffering the most violent impact, he jumped down with his spare strength, without making any stops, using both hands and feet, getting up from the ground and running.
looked behind him, and the fool had really chased after him again.
Li Jie wailed and ran forward desperately.
Li Jie was chased in a panic, and he didn't know where he was, so he just ran forward blindly to avoid this persistent wild boar.
Suddenly, he vaguely saw a waterhole in front of him, and Li Jie was overjoyed.
Pigs don't swim in the water!
Thinking so, Li Jie didn't think about anything else, and ran wildly towards the water.
Unknown territory may hide unknown dangers.
Li Jie didn't dare to take too much risk, and after jumping into the pool, he just stared at the wild boar not far from the shore and observed its reaction.
I saw that the big wild boar, who was still eager to die with Li Jie before, actually cowered at this moment, snorted a few times, and ran away!
As soon as he saw its reaction, Li Jie realized that it was a bad dish!
Swim to the shore!
However, it was too late.
Obviously very close to the shore, Li Jie just couldn't swim over, and there was a great suction force in the water behind him!
At the critical moment, Xiao Hei, who had been sleeping on top of Li Jie's head before, woke up at some point.
I saw Xiao Hei stepping on the top of Li Jie's head, jumping lightly, and jumping onto the shore.
"Weak human beings, it seems that the fate of this king and you is over here."
After speaking, Xiao Hei licked his paws very comfortably, without a trace of worry.
If he could, Li Jie would like to scold Xiao Hei's ancestors for eighteen generations.
There are still pets in this world who watch their owners die, Li Jie has really lived for a long time!
Damn, just a moment, the suction in the water suddenly became larger, forming a big vortex.
Li Jie suddenly became unstable and was swept into the whirlpool.
Even if Li Jie's water nature is good, he is no longer able to struggle at this time. Choking on the water, splashing indiscriminately. Along with a lot of debris that was swept up by the current, it was dragged to the bottom of the water by a huge suction force.
Boundless fear struck Li Jie, Li Jie didn't dare to look behind him, and only struggled forward in vain.
consciousness, more and more confused.
Can't sleep! You must not sleep!
Li Jie tried hard to open his eyes, as if he could still see Xiao Hei's indifferent eyes through the water.
Finally using the last bit of strength, Li Jie, who lost consciousness, fell down the water towards the bottom of the lake.
Just a second before he was about to be swallowed by the abyss, a burst of white light erupted from Li Jie's body.
