Volume 2 The Turmoil in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 14 The Demon Thorn

On the field of the cave, the oversized poison ivy was finally ambushed. Its broken, oversized body lay on the ground, and even if it fell, it had enough deterrent power to inspire awe in the hearts of small humans. The ground was stained with dirty blood, mixed with dust, and a disgusting muddy red.

The players of the Xuanyuan family stood in a circle around the monster corpse, their faces facing outwards and their weapons in their hands, holding their breath. The other players surrounded them, and from time to time their eyes crossed the Xuanyuan family and landed on the monster corpse, revealing a hint of greed. The carapace of this oversized poison ivy can defend against green weapons below level 25, and its claws can break through green shields and leather armor below level 25, as long as you scavenge one or two materials from it, you can take it to the blacksmith shop to get a good piece of equipment! For this reason, the atmosphere of the scene is tense.

But no one dared to move, because the Xuanyuan Moon Demon was here.

The Moon Demon was half-squatting on the side of the corpse, his cloak was scattered, and his face was bloody, almost unrecognizable to Tu Shi, but the arrogant swordsman's temperament had not changed, and even more aggressively, even such a "down-and-out" appearance also revealed a smell of iron and blood, which made Tu Shi ashamed of himself. Even though the atmosphere at the scene was tense, the Moon Demon was indifferent, and only cared about cutting the insect corpse with his sword. When he stood up again, he carried a circle of rope-like things in his hand, fortunately, Tu Shi had seen this thing before and knew that it was a wire worm and not some rope.

Well? Why did the Moon Demon leave? Nothing else dropped? Just holding the nematode?

When Tu Shi was puzzled, someone had already stopped the Moon Demon: "Take out the things that have been dropped, or I'll kill you!" "There are always some people who like to get something for nothing, and they don't have the ability to kill monsters, so they find players to bully, which is the kind that Tu Shi hates the most. If Tu Shi told them that "that thing is a wire worm", I wonder if they still can't afford to be evil?

The Moon Demon stroked his hair, wiped the mucus off his face, looked at the other party indifferently, and said, "You are two levels lower than me. ”

Strangely, although the players of the Xuanyuan family had nervous expressions, none of them came to help, but continued to guard the monster corpse, watching the Moon Demon deal with the siege alone.

"But there are five of us!"

The Moon Demon looked at them one by one, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "They are all two levels lower than me, oh, one is three levels lower." ”

Hearing this, the other party couldn't help it, and pounced on the moon demon with a shout. The crowd suddenly stirred, blocking Tu Shi's sight, and when Tu Shi easily squeezed out of the people in front of him, he only saw five corpses at the feet of the Moon Demon, and one of them happened to flash the white light that was unique to the player's death.

Tu Shi gasped. Damn, it's so strong! It's only been a lot of time, and it's only been less than half a minute since a five-person team was finished! The Moon Demon added a few more wounds to his body, and according to Tu Shi, it was estimated that he used the method of exchanging injuries for injuries, so it seems that it is understandable that the Moon Demon fought so neatly.

The players were in an uproar. That's when they remembered what kind of person the Moon Demon was. In terms of fame, Moon Demon is not defeated by the wind, he is a world-class fighting game master, and there is a saying in the e-sports circle "Under the Moon Demon, all are second", which means that no one in China can surpass Moon Demon, and if you want to compete for the ranking, you will compete for the second place at most. And after the release of the Kyushu Merry Character Post, there are mostly two opinions in the circle: one is "the Moon Demon is finally the second", and the other is "Although Ruofeng is the first, the real first should be the Moon Demon". Either way, it still affirms the Moon Demon's achievements in "Qiankun".

So the ill-intentioned people retreated, and the fans spontaneously stepped forward to escort the idol away. The Moon Demon still looked indifferent, but when he left, his eyes stayed on Tu Shi's body for a second and a half, and his eyes were as sharp as a sword. Tu Shi swore that the Moon Demon recognized him and still remembered him.

The waves set off by the super-large poison ivy this time came to an end by the Xuanyuan family.

Atrium.

There are a few kinds of green vegetables on the stone table, still garlic oil watered with mustard, fried Gaozhou wheat, all bought from the restaurant. Tu Shi glanced at Master Zuo a few more times, and Yi Wuya straightened his face: "Didn't you say it, eat a balanced diet." ”

Tu Shi snickered: It's obvious that you're greedy!

The right master took out the yellow gourd and three cups, and motioned to Tu Shi to pour wine. Tu Shi took the gourd: "Master, since you can use Taoism to turn props into living people, why don't you keep a few servants out?" ”

"You can pour wine with Dao Technique, and you can pour wine with your hands, since you can do it without Dao Technique, why should you be obsessed with using Dao Technique? Put the cart before the horse. Haiqing Zhenren asked rhetorically: "Cultivating the truth, seeking the Tao, what is the truth of cultivation, and what kind of Tao is pursuing?" Is it just to not have to work hard? If you are short-sighted, how did you live in the first three attempts? ”

Tu Shi couldn't listen to philosophy the most, and said in his heart, Master, why are you talking at length, just say "I want to save some blue".

At the dinner table, Tu Shi vividly recounted what he had seen and heard today, and finally concluded with one sentence: "It's really strange that poison ivy can fly." ”

Haiqing Zhenren listened and said, "That's not poison ivy, but demon thorn." ”

Vitex is an mutant of poison ivy. Although poison ivy eats people, it is a kind of insect that is more timid and afraid, whether it lives in groups or alone, it likes to dig holes and hide. However, the thorns are different, their exuberant appetite prevails over their nature, and they abandon the nest altogether to become more ferocious and aggressive. The difference between poison ivy and vitex is actually quite similar to the difference between the sedentary type and the nomadic type of the overlord spider, but the two types of overlord spiders are just differences in skills, while vitex and poison ivy are essentially different...... Demon Thorn is infinitely close to monsters, while poison ivy can often only be demon beasts for the rest of its life.

Another characteristic of the Demon Thorn is that it is randomly mutated. They will evolve some kind of organ in order to survive, but not every individual will evolve in the same direction. Today's thorn has elytra, and other thorns don't necessarily have it.

"However, the Demon Thorn does not mean that the mutation is mutated, they need an opportunity that is enough to change the instinct, this kind of opportunity is more rare than the Emperor Flowing Pulp, after all, the Emperor Flowing Pulp has a Jiazi, but the opportunity is ethereal and elusive, so it is not impossible for the Demon Wattle to only appear once in a hundred years."

"Master, could the chance you are talking about because of the nematode? Worms can stimulate poison ivy and overlord spiders to be more ferocious. Tu Shi remembered the scene where the Moon Demon carried a few circles of insects.

"It's possible." Hai Qing Zhenren nodded: "Next time, if you can get the wireworms in their corpses, remember to bring them back for me to see." ”

Tu Shi rolled his eyes. Master, you said that the Demon Thorn may only appear once in a hundred years, when will this "next time" be?

Haiqing Zhenren said again: "You don't see any injuries on your body today, didn't you fight with the Demon Thorn?" ”

"You have sealed all my meridians, what am I going to do with the Demon Thorn?" Tu Shi is yin and yang.

Haiqing Zhenren didn't hear the disciple's grievances, and nodded thoughtfully: "Zhuang Zhou is right, useless is not really useless, it is also useful." ”

Tu Shi hehe: "Master, you are scolding me around the corner." If I'm completely useless, of course I won't be stupid to challenge the youkai, but what if the youkai insist on making trouble for me, I'll still die if I don't have the power to protect myself. ”

Haiqing Zhenren shook his head: "Because you are human, you are useful to youkai; If you're just a dead rock, and you don't eat it, how can a monster beat your mind? ”

"But I'm a human being, born to be a human being, not a stone, and there's no way to change that. So master, you, ah no, what Zhuangzi said is nonsense. No matter whether a person is useful or not, when you encounter a man-eating monster, you should fight hard, and you must not kill it by the neck, let alone watch it harm others. Lu Xun said well, if you don't explode in silence, you will perish in silence, master, you always keep silent, it seems that you are wise to protect yourself, but in fact you will kill yourself. ”

Master Zuo on the side was dumbfounded: "Apprentice, it turns out that when you talk about the truth, it is the same as the bull's nose!" ”

Haiqing Zhenren thought about it seriously. Tu Shi likes the two masters, never takes a stand, right is right, wrong is wrong, and never forces him to admit that his thoughts are incorrect. After Yi Wuya ate four more mouthfuls of food, Haiqing Zhencai said: "It was my mistake to apply Zhuang Zhou's 'useless use' to you." However, even if you do what you think is righteous, it will not be beneficial to your cultivation, and it will only add cause and effect. ”

Well, Tu Shi hates Master You, who obviously has magic skills, but he is always pure and has few desires and does not ask about the world. He laughed, "So what? But peace of mind. ”

"When the heart is at peace, where is the body? Cause and effect together, killing and robbing, at least damage the body's hair and skin, in the middle of the disaster to relatives and friends, and at worst the soul is scattered, by that time it is too late to regret, what is the peace of mind? ”

Master You's words touched Tu Shi's thoughts. He was silent. In the final analysis, his sense of justice can only show off his power in the game, and he will only meet in reality. This is exactly what it is:

The boy is like a frog in a well, bent on fighting the sword and becoming a hero. The blood drained the party to enlightenment, and the old man waited for the evening bell.

Yi Wuya saw that the atmosphere was not right, and said haha: "If you don't move the chopsticks, I'll finish eating!" ”

Tu Shi hastily took a few bites, put down the dishes and chopsticks and got up: "I'll go around the city." ”

————————————————————————————————————

Remembering the northern city, saving people.

The two backbones of the Xuanyuan family, Ruofeng and Renhuang, came to visit Wang Vietnam.

"Uncle Shi, this is what we found on the demon beast, please take a look."

The three mountain runes are in the same breath, and the Shenxiao faction, the Lingbao faction, and the Shangqing faction have been friends for generations, so it is natural for the two players to call Wang Vietnam "uncle".

Looking at the corpse of the nematode in front of him, Wang Yue was taken aback, with his [Qi Viewing Technique] attainment, it was not difficult to find that every inch of flesh and blood of this insect corpse was full of demonic energy, if he didn't know its roots in advance, he might even treat it as the corpse of a monster that had been beaten back to its original form. After listening to the details of the two heroes, he said: "This monster is called Demon Thorn, it is a fierce and vicious demon beast, killing to improve cultivation, you can never deal with it, if you rush to face the battle, it is equivalent to sending a sheep into the mouth of the tiger, easy to help it grow." As far as I can speculate, the thorn is inseparable from the spider spirit, and there is more than one thorn. ”

Ruofeng and the human emperor glanced at each other. More than one? That's even better! If this kind of rare elite that is difficult for ordinary players to deal with is killed by the Xuanyuan family, it is equivalent to a free publicity, not to mention the middle and high-level materials that may be obtained!

Crisis is the opportunity contained in danger.
