Chapter 30: Meet the Giant Mantis Again
In the silence of the bushes, Wei Siyuan was carefully and vigilantly surveying his surroundings, while putting his hands behind his head, clutching the weapon on his back, ready to deal with any contingencies.
Touching the handle of the Tang knife-style knife on his back, Wei Siyuan couldn't help but think of Wu Qi.
"It's better to be Brother Wu, give me a good knife, the handle of the knife is made of cold mountain wood full of aura, and I can't put it down when I touch it!" Wei Siyuan thought to himself, and he was even more grateful to Wu Qi.
And at this moment, Wu Qi was throwing something in his office, "Damn Wei Siyuan, take away Lao Tzu's good knife, and when it's over, Lao Tzu wants to make your life worse than death!"
It turned out that after Wei Siyuan entered the arsenal, he picked and picked and choked. But he had customized the mantis knife himself before, and he had a certain understanding of the knife, and these knives in front of him were at most a little stronger than the mantis knife he customized, so he began to ask Wu Qi.
"Dude, are these knives all there is to open my eyes better?"
"It's better?" Wu Qi was stunned for a moment, but soon understood that Wei Siyuan couldn't look down on the knives in front of him.
"Doesn't he understand?" ”
Then Wu Qi led Wei Siyuan to a more closely supervised room, entered the door code, and there were only three weapons in the room, a Tang knife, a spear, and a bow.
"Brother, since you dislike Curry's knife, then brother will give you a good knife. How about this knife!"
Wei Siyuan looked at the Tang knife with classical charm hanging on the stand, his eyes lit up instantly, and he walked up, ready to take it off the stand with one hand. The moment the knife was in hand, Wei Siyuan felt that his hand sank, and he never thought that the knife, which was originally not heavy, would leave the bracket, and it would be like a piece of heavy iron, and he thought that he would not be able to flexibly grasp this knife with one hand alone.
Wei Siyuan hurriedly grabbed it with both hands, grabbed the scabbard with one hand and grabbed the handle with the other, and pulled the knife out of the scabbard directly with force.
The mirror-like blade air-cold reflected Wei Siyuan's excited flushed face at the moment, and a cold light condensed on the edge of the blade seemed to be flowing non-stop, which increased the sharpness of the knife.
Looking at the joy in Wei Siyuan's eyes, Wu Qi was a little difficult to ride a tiger, this knife was the best of the three silver-level weapons that Zhang Kui funded him, originally he thought that he would not be able to hold this knife only with the strength of Wei Siyuan's martial arts peak, so he was relieved and bold to take Wei Siyuan to visit, but now Wei Siyuan obviously took a fancy to this knife. After looking for a while, Wu Qi decided to give it a try, if he could persuade Wei Siyuan to keep this knife, it would be best.
"Brother, are you satisfied with this knife? This knife is made entirely of spiritual materials. The blade is made of spiritual iron, the handle is made of cold mountain wood, and even the scabbard is wrapped in bison skin, which is very valuable!"
Wu Qi first gave Wei Siyuan a brief introduction to the knife, and without waiting for Wei Siyuan to speak, he began to explain his purpose.
"Brother, it's not that I won't help you, this kind of weapon made of spiritual materials can only be easily controlled and used by masters above the silver level, but at the martial arts level, it can't be used at all, it's difficult to wield a knife, let alone fight with a knife!" Wu Qi looked bitter and couldn't help it.
"Brother, I feel it! This knife is sinking a little, or I don't want the task reward, how about changing knives with you?"
"Task reward?" Wei Siyuan proposed to exchange the task reward for a knife, which made Wu Qi's heart really hurt, the so-called task reward was just a casual thing he made up, it was purely a fictitious thing, originally thought that Wei Siyuan would just find a reason to prevaricate after completing the task, anyway, Wei Siyuan would be played to death by Zhang Kui sooner or later, but now he had to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.
"Good, good!" Wu Qi had to pay for his lies.
Wei Siyuan carefully moved his steps, the bush in front of him was familiar to him, and it was a place for the giant praying mantis to stay. Wei Siyuan specially asked people to put him in this bush, one because he was most familiar with this bush, and the other was that he wanted to try the Tang knife tied to his back.
After carefully groping in the bushes for almost an hour, there was still no trace of the giant praying mantis, which made Wei Siyuan's originally eager mood to try slowly cool down.
"No! we have to find a way to get the giant mantis to come out on its own!"
Wei Siyuan calmed down and thought slowly for a while, and suddenly thought of a particularly critical question, the reason why he came here was because he knew this, but he forgot that the giant mantis only had the strength of the middle stage of the martial artist at most, and he had reached the peak of the martial artist, and even reached the early stage of silver in terms of speed.
"Praying mantis cubs, come out, come out quickly!" Wei Siyuan thought that his strength had far surpassed that of the giant mantis, and he suddenly stopped being so cautious, grabbed the Tang knife from behind with both hands, and tapped the bush with the scabbard, preparing to make a big noise, and startled the giant mantis out.
Sure enough, Wei Siyuan knocked all the way, and the giant praying mantis really ran out of the bushes. But not one, but four at once.
"I-" Wei Siyuan couldn't say anything in his heart, he was a little powerless in the face of the four praying mantis who were holding the bright sword feet, after all, the four praying mantis had eight knife feet, but he only had one Tang knife, and he was not very flexible.
"If I knew it would be like this, I wouldn't be so arrogant!" he secretly complained.
Suddenly, a violent sound of flapping wings came into Wei Siyuan's ears, and Wei Siyuan hurriedly leaned back to dodge the menacing attack of the first praying mantis.
Then the second praying mantis also rushed over, and the sharp knife foot swept towards Wei Siyuan, making Wei Siyuan involuntarily lean towards the third praying mantis.
"Oops!" Wei Siyuan dared to react, and the third mantis's two knife feet slashed at Wei Siyuan's back, directly tearing the clothes on Wei Siyuan's back, revealing the leather armor worn inside.
Then with the force of the knife foot slashing on his back, Wei Siyuan hurriedly distanced himself from the praying mantis group. Although the leather armor was not cut, Wei Siyuan could still feel the hot pain on his back.
"I can't do it yet, I can't clean up the stinky mantis in the middle of your four mere martial artists!" Wei Siyuan was annoyed by the giant mantis, and directly pulled out the knife and threw the scabbard on the ground.
Seeing the flowing cold light on the blade of Tang's knife, the four praying mantis also felt a chill on their necks, but they still did not show weakness, and raised their two sword feet one after another, lowering their heads and squeaking towards Wei Siyuan.
"What's it called, I think Lao Tzu doesn't understand the language of beasts!" Wei Siyuan understood the squeak of the giant mantis's open mouth, it turned out that it was because he had disturbed them, as long as he retreated, they would no longer hold themselves accountable.
"Hmph! One yard is one yard! Lao Tzu was still cut down by you! Now if you don't let Lao Tzu try the knife, Lao Tzu won't leave!" Wei Siyuan held the Tang knife in both hands and slowly approached the four praying mantises......
