Chapter 177: The Earth Dragon Appears
"What are you doing, even embroidery doesn't need to be so formal?"
Hearing Zhao Kongmeng's shout, Zong Xiuwen explained: "I only know a little bit about the magic circle, and I can only be regarded as half-understood. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf I were to deal with the Earth Dragon alone, maybe I would have to do it in a hurry. But now that we have enough manpower, I think it's better to be a little more detailed. Because this kind of thing is a magic circle, it is originally a skillful technique. The more subtle, the better the results. “
Zhao Kongmeng knew that it was impossible for him to steal the teacher, let alone him, even Xiaolan, who helped set up the formation, could not steal something to learn. Because there is such a thing as a magic circle, without a master leading you into the door, it is impossible to comprehend it by yourself. He simply did his own work directly, and didn't have the ability to pay attention to other people's interests.
Thanks to its proximity to a creek, the soil contains a lot of water and is therefore soft. Although the sapper shovel in Zhao Kongmeng's hand is only more than 40 centimeters long after it is unfolded, it is designed according to ergonomics. So it's easier to get started with, and it's quicker to get started than that big shovel. He kept waving his arms, and it didn't take long for him to dig the pit to a depth of about three or four meters. It's not that he's stingy and reluctant to dig deeper. In fact, if you dig deeper, it will not be easy to throw the soil out of the pit, so you can only do this for the time being.
"Hey, Lao Zhao. Later, you will gather the earthworms dug up in the soil and put them together with the wheat ear fish that Xin'er got back. Earthworms are also fishy, and it is estimated that the earth dragon will like it too. ”
Hearing this request, Zhao Kongmeng felt very strange, so he asked Zong Xiuwen: "Didn't you say that this earth dragon is an earthworm, and it is the one that is left after the earthworms within a radius of several miles kill each other?" Now that you say that those earthworms can be gathered together, doesn't that mean that there are many earthworms here? ”
"Earth dragons are indeed conjured up after earthworms are stained with the breath of real dragons, but since they have incarnated into dragons, they are no longer ordinary earthworms. This will cause it to eat earthworms, and it will not feel like it is eating the same kind at all. What's more, when it was fighting for the bones of the real dragon, it didn't know how many earthworms it had eaten. As for why there are still a lot of earthworms here, it's because this is not a place where real dragon bones exist at all. ”
"What?" Hearing this news, Bai Xinxin, who was standing at the farthest distance, was the first to jump out, "You said that this is not the place where the real dragon bones are, so what are we busy with?" ”
"Bai Xinxin, why do you ask that?" Zong Xiuwen felt very strange, "We are dealing with the real dragon in order to eliminate harm for the people, you are concerned about the bones of the real dragon, isn't it the opposite direction?" ”
"I'm calling it the same way, you tell me where the bones of the real dragon are?"
"I don't know, and no one actually knows. After all, the earth dragon is too lowly from a humble background, so it is difficult to cross the stage from insect to dragon. From the time the earthworm began to contact the bones of the real dragon to the time it was able to turn into an earth dragon, the time experienced in the middle could even be vicissitudes. So after so much time, it is natural that earthworms can reappear in the places where it has been. What's more, after the earthworm turns into an earth dragon, it will choose to open the burial place of the true dragon bones, because it can't absorb more energy. In order to avoid being eaten by the true dragon bones, he could only choose to leave. ”
Zong Xiuwen gave his own explanation, but Bai Xinxin didn't buy it. She came out of the river and lay down on the ground, saying that she was tired. Zong Xiuwen didn't embarrass this little girl, just smiled and continued to do her own work. In this way, two people set up a formation, one dug a trench, and the other lay down to rest. Time passed minute by minute, and finally it transitioned from day to night.
Digging a pit is a physical task, and digging a trench is even more tiring. Fortunately, after Zong Xiuwen finished setting up the magic array, he took turns digging a ditch with Zhao Kongmeng, otherwise he really didn't know when this ditch would be dug well. Even though the two of them had tried hard, the ditch did not end up being more than three and a half meters deep.
"Isn't this ditch too shallow, as long as that earth dragon is not stupid, he will definitely not be fooled."
Hearing Bai Xinxin's words, Zong Xiuwen disagreed: "The earth dragon already has wisdom, of course it is not stupid. However, it has crossed too many steps from a worm to a dragon, which will make it lose its judgment. Now even if it knows that there is a trap ahead, it will be invisible. What's more, a depth of three and a half meters can just allow the magic circle to exert its maximum effectiveness. If this trench is dug deeper, it will cause very bad results.
"How sure are we?" Zhao Kongmeng had never done such a thing, and his heart was somewhat bumpy, "After all, the dragon is a divine object, even if it is an earth dragon, it is not something we can despise." ”
"I'm sure I'm zero, I'm just doing my best to obey the fate of God."
Zong Xiuwen himself didn't have the slightest confidence, and others wouldn't have too many expectations. This will not only be Bai Xinxin lying down to rest, but even Zhao Kongmeng will lie to the ground. Only Xiaolan nervously followed Zong Xiuwen to do this and that, and it seemed that she couldn't finish the work.
"Uh-huh."
Bai Xinxin hummed quietly in a nasal voice, while constantly making eyes in the direction where Xiaolan was. She saw that Zhao Kongmeng had no reaction, so she simply pointed out to him directly: "If you don't make a move, I think your good sister will run away with others." ”
Zhao Kongmeng knocked Bai Xinxin's head with a chestnut: "You guy, why are you so boring." ”
"People are telling the truth, why is it boring. Hmph, it's better to be a dog and meddle with a mouse. Your own wife can't stand it, so you can't blame me. ”
Zhao Kongmeng really couldn't laugh or cry, because he didn't have any bad thoughts about Xiaolan. He was going to knock another pop on Bai Xinxin's little head, so that this guy would not have to think about something that he didn't have. Unexpectedly, at this moment, I heard Zong Xiuwen's shout: "The earth dragon is here." ”
Earth Dragon, how did it come so quickly? Zhao Kongmeng thought that he would have to wait until late at night, or wait for Zong Xiuwen to cast some spell. However, from the beginning to the end, the sect cultivation did not show anything different, but kept fiddling with the objects that had been placed before. It was those objects that made Zhao Kongmeng feel that he was funny. Because these objects are nothing more than copper coins or even goose soft stones fished up from the river. Zhao Kongmeng felt that these things would not have any mana, at most they could play a psychological comfort role. Hearing Zong Xiuwen's shout, he suddenly felt as if he didn't know what to do.
"Stupid, don't run yet."
Bai Xinxin didn't just shout at Zhao Kongmeng to run, she had already crossed the stream and ran away before Zhao Kongmeng could react. Zhao Kongmeng remembered that Zong Xiuwen once said that as long as the earth dragon was attracted, the earth dragon could be captured through the power of the magic circle. Although he didn't know if there would be water in it, he still followed Bai Xinxin's footsteps across the stream.
The earth dragon itself is the most humble earthworm, but once it transforms into a dragon, it is no longer a mortal thing. Even if it's not a real dragon, after all, it also accounts for a dragon character. This will cause it to travel underground, and it will be obvious that there are signs of a bulge on the ground. Zhao Kongmeng just wanted to remind Xiaolan to retreat too, but he couldn't shout. Because before he could shout, the earth dragon spoke first.
Zhao Kongmeng had never heard of the dragon chanting, but if he hadn't known in advance that it was just an earth dragon, he would really think that it was a dragon chanting. For when such a loud noise is heard, it is not from the ear to the heart, but from the heart to the ear. The sound of the earth dragon directly penetrated the hearts of everyone present, making people feel awe from their hearts. Zhao Kongmeng felt that he might have made a wrong choice this time, because the earth dragon was not something they could deal with at all.
Zong Xiuwen was also in a daze like Zhao Kongmeng, and he couldn't see any strategizing posture at all. But he didn't run either, and was still standing still. It's just that why he didn't run, whether he was bold or stupid, it is unknown.
The Earth Dragon continued to move underground, and there were more and more bulges on the ground. However, this phenomenon did not last forever, as the ground bulge was already close to the shallow trench that had just been dug. Zhao Kongmeng saw the bulge suddenly disappear, and then saw a snake head about the size of a giant python leaking out of the ground.
"Hey, look."
Zhao Kongmeng only said three words, but was interrupted by Bai Xinxin: "Hmph, that's not my kind." You see that there are two distinct black spots on his forehead, and that is the infully developed dragon horn. It seems that Zong Xiuwen is right, this big earthworm can really be called a dragon character. But earthworms are earthworms, not to mention dragons, they are not even snakes now. Look at its reddish skin, it looks like an earthworm dug out of the mud. And if you look at its head, there are no eyes on it, and there are no fangs on it. Hey, what a waste of this real dragon bone. ”
After listening to this insight, when Zhao Kongmeng looked at the earth dragon again, he really felt a little low-end. Originally, Dilong's first impression was quite popular, and it was able to form a psychological coercion on Zhao Kongmeng, but this would make Bai Xinxin's words resolved. He carefully watched the tricks of the Earth Dragon's actions to see if he would really be greedy for those earthworms and wheat earfish. But that's not the point, what he wants to see more is whether Zong Xiuwen's magic circle works or not. Although there is no way to steal the teacher, through this close observation, he can still peep into the leopard, which is better than a black eye. However, he soon realized that things did not seem to be as simple as he had thought, for instead of running to the pre-set trap, the earth dragons were swimming swiftly towards where they were standing.
Instead of swimming in a shallow ditch, the dragon came directly to the ground. Looking at the tall body of four or five meters, Zhao Kongmeng really felt a little powerless.
