Chapter Fifty-Six: The Demon in the Lake

As usual, Su Hao rested in the cave he had carved out in the rocky forest, but today he had something new to do, and that was to watch the weapons he had made for himself.

The poisonous sword is blue, dark green all over, and more than three feet. It is divided into two handles, the middle part can be detached and used as a small dagger, no matter the size, the toxicity is the same; the main material is naturally Su Hao after the collapse of the Nanqing Cave, in the chaos of the stone collection of the Nanqing Mine. As for its power, it will be known when it becomes hostile to the monks.

After putting away the green and putting it into the mustard seed bag along with the sword box, Su Hao set off to continue the hunt.

This mountain range is the Tianquan Mountains, the mountains are verdant, there are many hot springs in the extremely secret places of the ravines and ravines, and there are some spiritual fruits growing near the hot springs. However, since the huge number of youkai entrenched in this mountain range, the human merchants, who have calculated that the benefits are not proportional to the expenses, have given up the opportunity to develop the mountain.

Therefore, today, Quanshan is also inaccessible, and is called the stocking ground of monsters by the nearest demon extermination association Donghai Yuhanmen.

Su Hao took a relaxing walk in the mountain stream. In the past three months, he has made a name for himself, and some little monsters can smell the smell of demon blood on him from a long distance, and they hurriedly flee.

There are no tigers in the mountains, the monkeys are the overlords, and the cat demon clan is already the strongest race in the Tianquan Mountain Range, but when Su Hao swaggered into the territory of the cat demon today, no pair of eyes appeared.

"Didn't you say that the Nine Lives King could bear this?" he smacked his lips and muttered to himself. It is said that it is the king of nine lives, but in fact, the Tao has not reached the Jindan for a hundred years, and it is like a symbol of simplicity.

Just as Su Hao was about to continue deeper into the cat demon's territory, a layer of fog shrouded the sky in the distance, and the surrounding environment became visibly much more humid to the naked eye, which attracted his attention.

In that direction......

Su Hao climbed to the top of the mountain and looked at the mysterious place shrouded in mist. As far as the eye could see, he saw a huge lake.

The water system surrounded by the Tianquan Mountain Range is Tianshui Lake. Tianshui Lake is rippling with blue waves, pure as a mirror, and a poem "the water is bright and sunny" can perfectly paint the artistic conception that Tianshui Lake can be quiet and warm. However, it is rumored that there is a huge water monster diving there, and no demon in Tianquan Mountain dares to approach it.

Su Hao's pupils shrank, pure black turned dark green, and he could clearly see the light blue demonic aura hidden in the mist and under the surface of the lake.

"The environment two kilometers away has been affected by its water element energy, no wonder there is not a single monster in the territory of the cat demon, I am afraid that in the forest by the water lake this day, the birds and beasts have already flown out. ”

However, Su Hao is not afraid, there are more valuable spirit fruits and spirit grasses growing in the forest by Tianshui Lake, and several of them are neutralizing medicinal materials that are refined with blood Gu blood pills, and the monsters are more powerful than the hot spring spirit branch guard lineup, but they are not under the innate nature. Now is the time to take advantage of the situation.

The water monster of Tianshui Lake, I, Su Hao, really have to thank you.

He thought to himself, his steps were fast. Some of the places that had been surveyed in advance appeared in front of him one by one, the gold and silver leaves with long branches and golden leaves, the red and blue water, fire and sweetness on the stems, a series of spiritually rich Five Elements Fruits, and a small Cuiwei Grass that harmonized medicinal properties, all of which were in his pocket. He had traveled a whole mile, and before he could turn back, he found that he had reached the lake.

The place was truly magnificent, the closer he got to the lake, the thicker and more condensed the mist, like a long white cloud spiraling into the sky, the huge water vapor in his face soaked his clothes, drooped his hair, he looked at it as he walked, exclaimed, and then continued to circle the lake to pick medicinal herbs.

Just when he thought that he could not cross the river water with the water monster well that he had never met, a petite shadow suddenly flashed in the tornado-shaped mist, but the shadow of a fairy only appeared for a moment. The water vortex exploded, and a huge black shadow flew out of it coldly, and the target was Su Hao.

Su Hao was shocked and hurriedly borrowed layers of trees to dodge. But the black scale tail that could cover his whole body attacked violently and quickly, and after "banging" and smashing two or three rows of trees, it hit Su Hao hard.

"Poof!" his throat was fishy, Su Hao spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his heart must not be hooked into the lake by this water monster, and the dark green magic mist sprayed out from his feet quickly, and he wanted to take himself out of this place.

But it backfired, Su Hao saw the black scale tail clearly as he moved, the sharp knife scales were huge and sharp, and countless balls of water elements rushed out from under the scales between the trembling and shaking, wrapping Su Hao's body in an instant. Su Hao's whole body couldn't move, and the next second it became a splash that passed into the lake.

Before he passed out, he was still wondering why the attack of this black-scaled hide was so similar to his own black-scaled whip.

......

I don't know how long it has been, Su Hao opened his eyes in a daze. All around him was a dark blue gray, and he himself was in an impenetrable water prison.

Maybe it was because he saw him wake up, a wandering black shadow appeared in the extremely dark space at the bottom of the lake, the black shadow was extremely long, Su Hao said in his heart This is the water monster of Tianshui Lake, a water snake demon with a high path.

It just locked itself in a water dungeon and didn't eat it right away, presumably communicative.

Soon, the water monster of Tianshui Lake showed its true face in front of Su Hao, with pitch-black scales, dark blue snake eyes, a pair of unevolved large horns on its head, and several slender dragon whiskers growing on the side of its mouth, and its huge body was probably comparable to ordinary Xiaolou.

It spoke: "Human, the deity has felt a familiar breath in you, if you want to die, don't hide that thing anymore, hand it over." ”

Hand it over? Su Hao promised that this snake king was familiar with his own black scale whip, and he was under the control of others at the moment, so he could only hand it over obediently.

Sure enough, as soon as Su Hao took out the black scales from the mustard seed bag, the dark blue eyes of the water snake demon shrank for a while, and it suppressed its anger: "Sure enough, you are the human who besieged the deity fifty years ago, and this time you fell into the hands of the deity, suffer death!"

Seeing that the water prison where he was imprisoned trembled like an earthquake, and the air became less and less, Su Hao's brain circuit was running rapidly, and Zhu Yusheng's words to him half a year ago were imprinted in his heart.

- Fifty years ago, Xue Youshen followed the team to the first step of the continent and participated in the pursuit of a Jindan demon. After that battle, the big demon disappeared, but Xue Youshen had compassion and rebellion. He stole the Black Scales, the trophy obtained by the team leader, and fled.

He spit out words like electricity: "Wait! It's not the demon slayer who besieged and killed you fifty years ago! But it's true that you have a relationship with the black scales, and if you really want to talk about the relationship, you can probably be regarded as a disciple of the enemy of the people who surrounded and suppressed you!"

"Oh?" the water snake demon heard and stopped pumping air, "Tell me about it." ”

"That's right," Su Hao said seriously, "The leader of the demon slayer team that besieged you at the beginning was someone my teacher was very disgusted by, and the teacher betrayed that operation and stole this black scale whip, and later betrayed the demon slayer association." According to the senior brother, the teacher is a person who believes that the human race and the demon race should have the right to exist equally in the Zhongzhou Continent. "Let's call his master Lao Zhu a senior brother.

The water snake demon was silent for a moment, and said: "The deity forgot, but at that time, the demon slayer who besieged the deity did have civil strife, and the deity will believe you." The black scale is the scale of the deity, and the deity borrowed it to get out, but it was unexpectedly refined into a demon weapon by humans. ”

"I see, when I saw your solid black scales, I had some guesses. So, what should I call you next?" Su Hao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Just call the deity the Water Venerable," the water snake demon said, "but even so, the deity just let you go." The black scale is the scale of the deity, very spiritual, the deity originally planned to refine it as a magic weapon, but did not want to encounter a foreign enemy and had to molt the scales to survive. Therefore, this black-scaled whip, the deity must be withdrawn. ”

Shui Zun stated such a fact lightly, but Su Hao was very unhappy in his heart. Since the black scale is spiritual, it is by no means more than the power he currently exerts, even the Jindan Demon has to be recovered, and the growth is not comparable to the poisonous sword Haoqing.

What's more, Su Hao has already used the black scales as a natal magic weapon to nourish them, and he has watered them with pure mana day and night, and his divine consciousness has long been connected to it, if he is taken away by the main owner this time, he is afraid that he will be seriously injured. Moreover, it also carried the only thought that Zhu Yusheng gave him.

Seeing a wave emerge from the water prison, and the black scales were about to swim away uncontrollably, he decided to gamble and shouted:

"Shui Zun, etc., this black scale is connected to the divine consciousness below, and it is regarded as a natal magic weapon in the lower realm, and this treasure has been rough refining by human beings, and it has long been deteriorated; See if you can open the net and let it be left below. ”

I have been surviving for more than half a year, and one day I will ask for help, which is really humiliating.

As soon as he said this, Shui Zun really stopped moving, and his tone became serious: "Do you know that your life and death are still under the hands of the deity, even so, do you have to negotiate conditions with the deity without knowing whether you are alive or dead?"

"Yes," Su Hao said awe-inspiringly, "First, you are a Jindan real person, although your strength is not as good as yours, you will not wag your tail and beg for mercy because of this, and your words and deeds are by no means stupid." Second, Zai Xia only states Zaixia's will, and if he can, he is willing to exchange other things for the ownership of this black scale. ”

Shuizun snake's eyes narrowed: "Good bold." 'Not stupid'? Do you mean you can get away with all your might?"

Su Hao was nervous in his heart, but as the son of Rahu, he held the Qi Luck Heavenly Gong "Shen Shang Dao" and the countless ghosts in the Seventh Ghost Prison that far exceeded his own strength, and it was not impossible for him to die together.

The four eyes met, and the dark blue snake eyes faced the dark green demon pupils, and no one was to be outdone.

After a long time, Shui Zun took the lead in speaking: "The deity sees people quite accurately, your eyes are really not afraid of the deity's appearance, if you don't have the trick of pressing the bottom of the box, it is the ability to bluff to the realm." That's it, the deity is not a strong person who oppresses the weak, so let's talk about the second condition, let the deity see your confidence. ”

Su Hao was overjoyed in his heart, and he thought of the shadow in the fog before the black shadow came out of the water. Could it be that this demon can transform into a human very early, but insists on maintaining the oppression of the big demon in front of itself and revealing the demon body?

"Good. Su Hao responded.

"The deity doesn't need anything else, what the deity needs is the Tianshan Snow Jade Ointment. It is made of a piece of spiritual snow on the top of the Tianshan Mountains, and the snow on each peak of the Tianshan Sacred Land is also limited, and it is precious that it has the supreme effect of purifying the impurities of the inner house and cleansing the surrounding spiritual energy. ”

Su Hao thought thoughtfully: "Then let me ask, what do you want it for?"

Shui Zun said unabashedly: "The deity is a pure golden pill on top of the perfect golden pill, but due to living in this filthy aura environment for a long time, the quality of the golden pill has decreased slightly, so it needs Tianshan snow jade paste." ”

Perfect Jin Dan Pure Jin Dan Su Hao was shocked in his heart. The level of Jindan Qilinggen that can have such quality is absolutely heavenly, and it has a fight with his own Rahu qualifications, in layman's terms, he has met a big man in the demon world.

It is really no coincidence that Shui Zun can have a different temperament from ordinary big demons, and his own talent has far exceeded the limit that the snake body demon clan can reach, so his aura is transcendent.

"I see, thank you for informing me. Zai Xia has never been to the Tianshan Mountain, which is controlled by the Tianshan Sect, and naturally it is impossible to carry the top snow," Su Hao noticed that when Shui Zun mentioned the Tianshan Sect, his snake eyes were unconcealably dyed with hatred, and he continued, "However, I believe that Shui Zun has such a bearing, so it is impossible to propose something that cannot be taken out in Xia." So Tianshan Snow Jade Paste is capable of obtaining it in the next place, right?"

Shui Zun nodded, and it praised: "It seems that the deity has indeed met a smart person, that's right, there is indeed another way to get the Tianshan Snow Jade Paste, and that is to steal it from the treasure house of the East China Sea Jade Hanmen, the closest demon slaying society from here." The East China Sea Jade Han Sect is a subordinate sect of the Northwest Tianshan Sect in the southeast coastal region of Zhongzhou, and the most precious material they can carry is the Tianshan Snow Jade Paste given from above. ”

"East China Sea Jade Hanmen ......" Su Hao was sure in his heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seems that he is really destined for the Demon Eradication Association, but this time, he is standing on the opposite side, and his behavior is still disgraceful.

"Why, don't you dare to steal? Just say it, and the deity will retrieve the black scales and send you ashore. ”

You can underestimate your strength, but your intelligence can't. Now, you just need to put it under the walk and believe in the bottom. Su Hao looked confident.

"That deity planted snake venom for you, for three days. You have to think about it, although the deity is generous, it is not a good stubble, and if you fail, the deity may leave you to fend for yourself!"

Su Hao smiled and took the initiative: "Plant it." Yu Zaixia's opinion Shui Zun is really a sensual demon woman, and the city is not terrible, if you are really disgusted with Zaixia, you should also lie to Zaixia to come back and let you detoxify, so that you can recover the black scales and solve it again. ”

Shui Zun snorted when he heard this: "If you are smart, aren't you afraid that the deity will get the Tianshan Snow Jade Paste and then kill you?" she said as she planted snake venom for Su Hao.

If that's the case, I'll have to resign myself to fate. Su Hao saw through Shui Zun and was free and easy.

Two seconds later, a wave of water came from below and up, lifting Su Hao up the lake. The water prison breaks itself. Su Hao jumped ashore, waved his hand at Tianshui Huxin, and left.

Shui Zun didn't drill out of the lake to ignore Su Hao, and after Su Hao left, her huge dragon and snake body fluctuated like a dream, and finally revealed her true body, a gentle fairy in silver hairpin and blue clothes.

She looked at the direction of Su Hao's departure through the layers of lake water, her bright eyes fluttering, as if she saw another person and another mountain through him.

"Tien Shan....... Abe......" she murmured, and at some point her pretty face was full of tears, and she wiped away the tears in surprise and muttered to herself.

"It's been fifty years, what are you still grieving, ...... the moon of the water"
