Chapter 8: The Vegetable Man
Rumble!
Lao Xiaotou slammed his fist on the wall of an abandoned stone room, instantly incinerating the entire stone room. Just as the rock was turning to lava, there was a deep depression in the rock.
Another ore vein entrance was revealed, and Lao Xiao Tou, with his years of experience in mining, immediately sensed that this entrance was very likely to lead to a new mining area.
That meant that they could bypass the Situ family, and he immediately reached out and dug the hole that one person could enter, and followed a branch towards the cave to find out.
The dim light of the cave did not pose any obstacle to Lao Xiao Tou, but he was more accustomed to this environment, a bit like a fish in water, he walked along the cave, and it didn't take long to smell more fresh breath, it seemed that the exit was not too far from here.
He continued to grope forward, while exploring the loosening of the surrounding rock mass, these abandoned underground mines, it is easy to form a rock mass collapse.
At that moment, his ears seemed to catch a slight ring, and he hurriedly raised his vigilance, slowing his pace to scrutinize the movement around him.
Silk! After another rapid commotion, Old Xiao immediately locked on to the source of the sound, and found that in a crack in the rock, there was a thin red line that was expanding and contracting, and the crack was being enlarged by it little by little.
"What's that?" Lao Xiao was curious and leaned down to observe, only to see that the thin line also seemed to sense himself, and actually took the initiative to shrink in...
Old Xiao Tou was even more curious, and looked down into the crack, and there was a pair of eyes the size of a grain of rice staring at him on the other side.
That look was full of pleading, seeing that Lao Xiaotou's heart moved, he stretched out his hand to pull away the rock, and gradually, the crack was opened by him, and then he saw a two-headed small snake, which was entangled by a big black centipede, and the pair of small rice eyes just now were it.
Seeing such an amazing picture, Lao Xiao Tou was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to help it or not, but he quickly made up his mind and picked up a sharp stone and knocked the big centipede to the ground.
The two-headed snake twisted its body, and when it rolled over, it wrapped itself around his arm, and no matter how he shook it, it still refused to leave.
Looking at such a sticky two-headed snake, Lao Xiaotou didn't retreat, he could only temporarily take it with him, he continued to walk towards the position of fresh air, and after a while, he felt that he was on the verge of exiting.
Suddenly! There was a rush of footsteps behind him, and Old Xiao Tou didn't expect that there would be people in this place, so he hurriedly found a branch vein and hid.
"Senior brother, after Nangong Jun's old man came back, he didn't ask anything, didn't he find out that Nangong Yanlong had been lost" The strong man turned around and stared at the thin man.
"Senior brother, that Nangong Young Dragon is the second ranked divine beast on the Nangong Ability Beast List, in the eyes of Nangong Jun Lao'er, that Nangong Young Dragon is even more important than his old life, how can he not find out that the young dragon has been lost so far" The thin man's cold gaze swept around, and his expression returned to normal.
"Senior brother, then why doesn't he hold us accountable" The strong man scratched his scalp and said with a frown.
"Senior brother, if Senior Brother guessed correctly, Nangong Jun's old man must be secretly monitoring our every move, he wants to quietly find out where we are hiding Nangong Youlong" The thin man said in a treacherous tone.
"Huh? Senior brother, Nangong Jun is ruthless, if he falls into his hands, life is definitely worse than death, let's run away together" The strong man was shocked when he heard this, and his panicked eyes swept the surrounding mines.
"Run? Within a radius of several hundred miles, as long as Nangong Jun says a word, even a fly doesn't want to slip away" The thin man calmly analyzed: "As long as Nangong Jun can't find Nangong Youlong for a day, he won't dare to act rashly, and after these few days, when Nangong Jun Lao'er relaxes his vigilance, we can find a chance to escape..."
"Hehe, you're right, as long as the old man can't find Nangong Youlong for a day, you two criminals can temporarily live the dog's life, but it's a pity that you are stupid enough to expose the location where Nangong Youlong is hiding" Just behind the thin man and the strong man, an old man in a long robe stepped out.
His clothes were dark green, and even his skin glowed a faint green. On his shoulder squatted a huge toad.
It had one foot on one shoulder, its whole body was half the size of a man, and its red eyes stared at the thin man and the strong man, as if it had found a delicious prey.
"Nangong Jun? If you want to cheat, Nangong Youlong is no longer here at all" The thin man's expression was uncertain, and he suddenly laughed a few times, staring at Nangong Jun with burning eyes.
"Fraud? I, Nangong Jun, will never bet on the Nangong Young Dragon, my adult green erysipelas is already connected to the Nangong Young Dragon's Inner Dan Breath."
"Before I came here, I had asked the green erysipelas to confirm the breath of Nangong Youlong, you can fool me, but you can't fool its nose" Nangong Jun laughed unscrupulously, and the expressions of the thin man and the strong man corresponding to it were extremely frightened.
Especially the thin man, he has a pair of thief eyes, slying around, with his resourcefulness, he has already guessed that the Nangong Youlong in Nangong Jun's words is hiding here, it must not be accidental, that means that there are other people hidden in this hole....
Thinking of this, the gloom on his face became even thicker.... His extremely panicked eyes swept over the poisonous clam on Nangong Jun's shoulder, its greedy eyes seemed to remind him at all times that they were its delicious meal.
The thin man had actually discovered Nangong Lao'er's secret a few months ago, he secretly poisoned his own and his junior brother's meal, it was a poison that would not be immediately fatal, but it was extremely vicious, he didn't quite understand at the time, why Nangong Jun did this, and now he finally understood, it turned out that Nangong Jun cultivated their junior brother as a vegetable man, in order to raise this green erysipelas.
"Obediently hand over Nangong Youlong, the old man can make you die a little more happily" The old man waved his sleeves, and a puff of green smoke sprayed towards the thin man.
"Nangong Jun Lao'er, you are also too deceitful, we will fight with you" The thin man roared angrily, waving his palm, a large piece of supernatural energy diffused in his palm, and at the same time, the strong man beside him also transformed into a giant.
Just as the poisonous smoke rushed to their side, the thin man's palm suddenly slapped out, but the target was not Nangong Jun, but a strong man.
With a bang, the giant body of the strong man was sandwiched in the middle by two streams of energy, Peng, his body turned out to be a shield, and a gray shadow rushed out of the poisonous smoke, turning into a flash of lightning and rushing towards Lao Xiao's hiding place.
It's so fast, it's so vicious, Lao Xiaotou, as a bystander, naturally clearly understands that the person who rushed towards him is a thin man.
His movements were so fast that Old Xiao Tou didn't have time to react before he was already in front of him.
Old Xiao Tou had no choice but to show up, and hit him with a palm, this palm, he had already used some violent flame power.
With a bang, the gray shadow was hit by Lao Xiao's palm, he spun around in mid-air, spurted out a mouthful of dirty blood, his body remained unchanged, and he actually rushed towards the entrance of the cave.
Only then did Lao Xiao Tou understand the true intentions of the thin man, and he was so vicious that he killed two birds with one stone, and he did not hesitate to take a slap himself, but also dragged himself into the water.
Lao Xiao slapped his head, and then he felt that Nangong Jun's momentum was approaching, and he knew that he was now in the super energy realm, and he couldn't fight against Nangong Jun, so he immediately fled in the opposite direction.
Hey? Nangong Jun let out a cry of surprise, he frowned, sniffed again, and suddenly his expression became extremely excited.
It turned out that Nangong Youlong was on you, he turned his eyes and looked at the figure of the thin man who was about to disappear at the entrance of the cave, and said with a sneer: "Green Toad, your food actually wants to run, you go and chase it back."
The poisonous toad that was originally squatting on his shoulder seemed to understand his words at this time, let out a low croaking sound, jumped off the ground, and locked on Lao Xiao's head with cold eyes, and his body moved, tracking up like a phantom.
