Chapter 18: Unidentified Creatures
When night fell, there were strange noises on the island, and the two of them did not feel sleepy, gossiping around the fire.
"Brother Ming, are you really from the land? I always feel like you're mysterious!" The princess asked, confused.
"It's true that I'm from a human society on land, and I just occasionally have some chances to practice some special exercises! I also hope that you will keep your promises and not be known by others. Qi Zhiming said sincerely.
"Don't worry! I'm not going to talk about it to anyone. What other exercises will you have? Can you show me?" The princess swore and had some expectations.
"No problem, there will be a chance in the future, you will see!" Qi Zhiming paused for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "You say I don't look like a human on land?" Have you seen any other humans? What does it look like? Where is it? Isn't it amazing? ”
Seeing Qi Zhiming's nervous appearance, the princess also became nervous, and said with a sigh of relief: "I have seen some creatures that look like humans. They ride on disc-shaped things, and that things glow, they spin, they are big, they fly, they fly very fast. ”
"At one point, several human-like creatures came down from the disc with a square box in their hands, just so big and boxy. A bright light flashed, and my people fainted, and they took them away. I haven't come back yet, and I don't know if it's life or death. The princess said sadly.
"When you suddenly appeared in front of me, I was terrified, and I thought that I would be captured by those people too. Don't scare me anymore! I'm really scared sometimes! As she spoke, the princess lay on Qi Zhiming's body, looking like she was about to cry.
"Okay, don't worry! I'm not going to scare you anymore. Won't give those people a chance to capture your people! Tell me well, we know ourselves and our opponents, so that we can survive a hundred battles! Qi Zhiming raised his hand, instinctively wanting to pat the princess's back as a sign of comfort.
I suddenly remembered that this is a big girl, and she can't be slapped casually!
The hand paused in mid-air, arced, and slapped heavily on his leg.
"Where have you seen them? When was it? Qi Zhiming asked quietly.
"We used to be playing on an island when suddenly two discs appeared. We all fled into the sea, and when we looked back, we saw a member of our clan being taken away. Angry and sad, but never dared to go to that island to play again. ”
"You asked us to help us find a safe place to live, but you didn't agree. They all said that we would pay for it, but you still hesitated! The elder said, "You can do it as you can, because we merfolk can't do it." Humans on land will take us as monsters. "Saying that, the princess is crying, the pear blossoms bring rain, and I feel pity.
"Alright, old goblin, you're amazing! You've won again. Qi Zhiming let out a long sigh.
"Is that what you call danger? Just go find another piece of sea, and you'll be safe? It's good on Mermaid Island, but changing places doesn't necessarily make it better there. It's not a prevarication, I just don't think it's necessary. If you really have to buy the island, I will do my best to help you buy it! ”
"Thank you, good brother! The elder said you would definitely help us. You're the best! The princess excitedly climbed Qi Zhiming's arm and shook it around.
The little face smiled like a flower, as if it was about to be done.
"How far is the island where you saw the unidentified creatures from where you live? When we go back, you tell me about it. It's not to fight with them, just to see what they look like. Qi Zhiming said confidently.
If his two brothers lose the meaning of existence in the eyes of the mermaid elders, the end will be very tragic. After understanding the situation first, and then talking to the elders about the conditions, it is logical to leave here.
I don't know how far Xiao Bu Rang can run, but I believe that if there is enough energy, it will be able to take himself and Gou Hong home. However, how much does it take to be fed? How far can you travel after feeding? It's still unknown.
There are only a dozen spirit stones in his hand, and the resource reserves are seriously insufficient, so let's wait and see.
"Brother Ming is so good, but I can't go again. If you can't beat them, I won't let you go. Just give them the island! There are a lot of islands, just go somewhere else. The princess hurriedly dissuaded.
Qi Zhiming groaned.
There are also some legends about alien UFOs in human society, but of course they are just legends. A big master like Liu Wu was also frightened by the unknown creature and didn't dare to move an inch, which shows that the opponent's ability is terrifying, and it should be a very dangerous existence.
The unidentified creature that the princess talks about has taken away her people, much like the rumored aliens.
His three-legged cat's kung fu may not be able to cope with it, so he must look for a lot of spirit stones and make himself strong as soon as possible. In time, if you encounter an unknown creature, you can still escape if you can't beat it.
"Before I can complete my exercises, I can't defeat the other party. Of course, I won't risk dying easily, so don't worry. Qi Zhiming smiled and said.
"That's good, that's good! Those things are terrible, it's best to stay out of the way. The princess patted her chest, and her horror was a little still.
······
The peaks of the mountains are like swords, pointing straight to the sky.
The two decided to go to the mountains to explore, hoping for new discoveries.
The rocks are abrupt, the cliffs block the way, and the mountain road is extremely difficult to climb.
Qi Zhiming drove Xiao Bu and slowly rose along the hillside. The princess has already seen the little one, and there is no need to hide it anymore.
The princess was still amazed, looked Xiao Bu up and down, stared at her eyes and exclaimed: "It's incredible, it's amazing!" It's so much fun. ”
Qi Zhiming's eyes widened, searching around, hoping to find something.
Use your mind to connect with Xiao, after all, this guy has a keen perception of cultivation resources such as heavenly and earthly treasures.
Along the way, it was all up to Xiao to his liking, walking and stopping, and letting this guy run around the mountains.
Qi Zhiming is also depressed about Xiao's refusal, with consciousness like a creature, but as cold and lifeless as leather. If I wasn't afraid of breaking it, I really wanted to cut off a piece and study it well.
If you can't think about it, don't think about it, it's harmless. If necessary, don't drop the chain.
Xiao Bu let the east and west run into the mountains all over the place, and there was no clue. Stop-and-go, stop-and-go, sniffing around like a hound along the way.
Time flies, and the sun is already setting in the west.
In this place where intuition is dangerous, it's better not to venture at night.
Just when Qi Zhiming was about to find a place to camp, Xiao Bu stopped in a mountain recess.
It looks like a dammed lake that has dried up, and the perimeter is irregularly rounded, with a diameter of about 100 meters.
The low bushes stretched their branches as hard as they could, hiding the deep pit that could no longer be covered, and the bottom of the pit was just gravel.
Xiao Burang was like a bug, slowly integrating himself into the ground.
Qi Zhiming was confused, and he didn't know what this guy had discovered. Just leave it at that, and leave your curiosity to the end to see the results.
For the princess's silent behavior of holding her baby and looking at each other, Qi Zhiming praised it in his heart.
is really a sensible and good girl, she didn't ask questions like before, and kept asking questions. Maybe it's immune to the strange things that happened to Qi Zhiming, right? So it's no wonder.
Through the faint light in the dimness, you can see that Xiao Bu Rang is wriggling, like an insect constantly absorbing the shining light points around him. Move all the way, absorb all the way.
Qi Zhiming grabbed a handful, and the light was full of crystal particles inlaid on the stone wall.
This is a crystal vein, Xiao Bu is not allowed to move all the way, is it to absorb the energy in the crystal or some other substance? Then it is unknown.
Where the small does not pass, there is no bright spot.
In Liu Wu's records, the cultivation resources did not include crystals.
As for what Xiao Burang uses as an energy supplement, Qi Zhiming really doesn't know much. But one thing is for sure, this guy is powered by energy. Fortunately, it doesn't have to be fed deliberately, it can find energy to eat and drink on its own. Otherwise, it's a real headache.
Qi Zhiming and the princess were a little hungry, but both of them endured it and didn't speak. I have to wait until I am young to eat first, and then I will talk about it, and I will have to rely on others for future adventures.
I don't know how long it's been since then, but I feel my hunger getting stronger. The "gurgling" cry in the stomach made the two of them smile bitterly and speechless.
By the time Xiao Bu Rang left with Qi Zhiming and the princess, the red sun had already rendered the sea level colorful.
The chirping of birds and the roar of wild beasts fill the morning on this isolated island.
Qi Zhiming felt the freshness of the air, and subconsciously moved his hands and feet, feeling a little "I woke up and didn't know that I was a guest".
After not sleeping all night, the two of them were not much tired, caught some small animals for breakfast, and hurriedly wrapped their stomachs.
With the sword-like mountain in sight, there's no reason not to explore.
Xiao Burang, who devoured the crystal all night, still couldn't see anything special. It's not surprising that under the reef plate, the pool of precious pith didn't let it hold up its belly!
But from now on, Qi Zhiming has the impression of a foodie about it, and it is a giant to eat.
Liu Wu did not elaborate on what kind of thing Xiao Burang was. I only said a rough way of using consciousness to drive, I can independently find the energy of heaven and earth and cultivation resources.
It's no wonder that this person was so frightened by humanoid creatures that he didn't dare to travel far, and he didn't know much about Xiao Bu Rang at all!
······
I went to the top and found nothing special.
The princess is not interested, this girl is a small money fan, and there is no interest if there is no baby.
Qi Zhiming instinctively felt that this island was a little mysterious, and since he still hadn't found anything yet, he could only leave it at that.
There are crystals on this island that Xiao Bulet needs, and he will definitely come back in the future. In order to make it easier to remember, according to the shape of the peak, it was named "Sword Island", and then the two left in a hurry.
No one could have imagined that many years later, it would not be the two of them who would come again.
At that time, everything was no longer human.
