Volume 2 The Lost Forest Chapter 53 Shelter from the Water Beads
"Yes!" the shrimp ghost paused slightly, then nodded heavily, and continued to eat the crow meat.
"What is it?" Zhou Nian's curiosity intensified.
"Fish of the Red Lake. ”
"Fish of the Red Lake?
The shrimp ghost held a crow meat in one hand, and then pouted at the red lake next to him, and said indifferently, "Oh, it's the fish in this lake." ”
"There are fish under this lake, why didn't you see one just now?" Zhou Nian asked in a deep voice.
"That's because the temperature is not high enough!" the shrimp ghost explained to Zhou Nian as he ate, The so-called Red Lake, is formed by the eruption of the active volcano of the Despicable Forest, the water veins under the lake are connected, can stretch for hundreds of miles, you don't see it is only so little now, it is below, the range can be large, and the closer to the bottom of the lake, the higher the water temperature, some places even reach the temperature of the flame, ordinary monsters, dare not approach, there is only one kind of monster, in the Red Lake water is a special case, called the fish of the Red Lake, this kind of monster beasts are born to love the heat, the higher the temperature, the faster they grow and reproduce, most of the fish of the Red Lake are lurking at the bottom of the Red Lake, except for the occasional surface to the surface to suck the gas, generally will not show up, we just hid on the surface of the lake, which is far from the habitat of the fish of the Red Lake, is naturally impossible to encounter. ”
"Oh, so that's ......" Hearing the description of the shrimp ghost, Zhou Nian nodded lightly, and then asked, "Since you said that the fish of the Red Lake are more powerful than the dark crow, then why are you so calm when you mention the fish of the Red Lake?" Aren't you afraid at all?"
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but it's not necessary. ”
"Why?"
"Although the fish of the Red Lake are powerful, they will not raid from time to time like the crows, their range of activities is limited to the Red Lake, and there is nothing to be afraid of when they get out of the Red Lake, besides, with the hot water temperature of the Red Lake, ordinary monsters can't bear it at all, so fools are willing to go down and provoke those fierce Red Lake fish. ”
"And what if I want to go down?"
"Then you're a fool. ”
"I'm asking if there's any way I can get to the bottom without being attacked by the fish of the Red Lake. ”
"Unless you become a fish in the Red Lake, you can't dive to the bottom of the water. ”
"Nonsense, if I can become a fish in the Red Lake, do I still need you to support me?" Zhou Nian was annoyed, Xu was the purple flare under the water that made him a little anxious, and he actually competed with the shrimp ghost.
After hearing this, the shrimp ghost frowned, and said in a bad voice, "Hey, is this the attitude you should have when asking people questions? Since you have a question that you don't understand, you have to put on a posture of humbly asking for advice, I will give you two choices now, first, call me a shrimp ghost seriously, maybe you can tell you the answer when you call me comfortable; second, don't ask this question again, we have parted ways since then, and I am still in a hurry to rush back to save the old oil head and Xiao Mengbao." ”
After the shrimp ghost finished speaking, he crossed the two big pincers over his chest with a proud face, waiting for Zhou Nian's answer.
Zhou Nian looked at it calmly, he was suppressed by the shrimp ghost like this, but he calmed down a lot, the last thing he was afraid of in his life was the person who was fighting with him, the more good-tempered the other party, he was soft-hearted and couldn't start, if the other party was arrogant, it would be easier to deal with.
The sword eyebrows were slightly raised, Zhou Nian walked slowly towards the shrimp ghost, the majestic aura wrapped his fists, and grabbed the opponent's two big pincers with all his might!
"Ahh
The sudden change, the shrimp ghost never expected Zhou Nian to come to such a hand, and he was just about to break free, but he jumped into the red lake twice in a row just now, his qi was exhausted, his physical strength was overdrawn, and he had no strength to fight back at all.
Zhou Nian looked at it with a smile, and the voice coming out of his mouth was cold and cold, "Then I will give you two choices now, first, I don't have to answer my question, the result is that I will break the two pincers that you are most proud of; The choice is yours. ”
In his own way, he returned his body, and the main move was to oppose the customer, and the shrimp ghost immediately panicked.
Although the young man in front of him seems harmless to humans and animals, once he is ruthless, it makes people feel an unforgettable fear in their hearts!
There is not much qi left in the body, and now resisting is undoubtedly self-defeating, I wanted to play tricks on Zhou Nian, but I didn't expect the other party to play really, it was really playing with fire and self-immolation.
couldn't help but swallow his saliva, the shrimp ghost didn't hesitate at all under Zhou Nian's persecution, and immediately agreed, "I'...... I answer your question. ”
"Well, that's right. Hearing this, Zhou Nian nodded slowly and let go of the shrimp ghost's two big pincers.
"Hu ......" got rid of Zhou Nian's shackles, the shrimp ghost breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "Have you ever heard of avoiding water droplets?"
"What is that?"
"The so-called water-repellent beads are made of the thousand-year-old ice that exists in the world, which is cold and piercing, extremely cold, can resist the heat of the world, and can be controlled by very many people, generally exists in the edge of the ancient extremely cold land, and is crystallized by the purest Shangqi in the world, with scarce stock and extremely powerful ......"
"The qi of the world, there are three stocks, the eternal survivor is called the qi, the remnants of the nine heavens of Fuyao, mortals rush to it, but it is not available, although it cannot be touched, but it can be intermittently touched into the thousand-year-old ice crystallized by the qi, which is also a gift from heaven. ”
Zhou Nian frowned, and then asked, "So this water-repellent bead is a thousand-year-old Xuanbing?"
After hearing this, the shrimp ghost shook his head, and said a little helplessly, "No, although the water beads are powerful, they are far less than one ten-thousandth of the thousand-year-old Xuan Ice, and they are just a cold sphere formed by the condensation of water dripping from the Xuan Ice, which is only a small point, but it is enough to help you resist the heat of the Red Lake." ”
"Then where is the water bead you said now?" Zhou Nian hurriedly asked.
"Well, it's in the hands of our nemesis. The shrimp ghost laughed at himself slightly.
"Who is your rival?"
"Alas, our area belongs to the domain of fire, the five elements are mutually restrictive, water and fire are incompatible, and our sworn enemy is naturally the domain of water. ”
"The Water Domain, is it the hometown of the old turtle from before?"
"That's right. The shrimp ghost nodded, and continued, "The Water Bead exists in the Water Domain, and it is guarded by the demon beasts that have always been very strong. ”
"Which monster is called?"
"I don't know the exact name, I only know one of its titles, the Lord of the Water City. ”
"Water City Lord?" Zhou Nian frowned after hearing this, hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously, "Then what is its strength?"
"Far above me, even, close to the five mountain gods!"
Bang!
In a word, Zhou Nian's body suddenly froze!
Through a simple comparison, the difference in strength is obvious.
The strength of the shrimp ghost is at the peak of the nine-star demon beast, and in such a realm, it can still fight with a five-star great martial artist, and the strength of the demon beast far above it will definitely ......
"Shhh...... It seems tricky. Zhou Nian suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he was just curious about the purple flare under the Red Lake, but he didn't expect to implicate such a powerful character, it seems that there are really a lot of secrets in this despicable forest!
Clenched his fist vigorously, Zhou Nian was by no means the kind of person who was timid and afraid of things, he was once a Star River Martial Saint, and he had experienced countless battles large and small, what kind of demon beast had not been seen?
Since the strength of the other party is comparable to that of himself, hard resistance obviously does not exist, and only outwitting is a good strategy.
Looking at the shrimp ghost again, Zhou Nian said with a serious face, "The demon beast you said, does it have any weaknesses?"
The shrimp ghost was stunned after hearing this, thinking that Zhou Nian would immediately retreat when the opponent's strength was exposed, but he never expected that this little guy not only did not retreat, but became more and more courageous, which was really surprising.
The tiny black eyes couldn't help but blink a few times, and the shrimp ghost took a deep breath, and his voice trembled, "You ask about its weaknesses, do you really want to take the water droplets?" ”
"Of course!" Zhou Nian nodded.
"I advise you not to go!" the shrimp ghost suddenly denied, the expression on his face was very solemn, as if reminding, "That demon beast is not only strong, but also has a very strange temper, and it must not be provoked." ”
"Weird? hehe......." Zhou Nian disagreed, his thirst for power made the fear in his heart disappear, he raised his eyebrows slightly, he said slowly, "I just like that kind of monster with a strange temper, you don't care how strong it is, you just need to take me there." ”
"Huh, I'm going too?" the shrimp ghost was stabbed all over his body after hearing this, and the two big pincers trembled as if they were about to fall off his body, "I heard me right, I actually want to follow?"
"If you don't go, who will show me the way?" Zhou Nian asked rhetorically.
"Hey, I'm a demon beast in the Fire Domain, go to our rivals, they won't stew me to make soup and drink, and I won't go if I kill me!" The shrimp ghost was very resolute, shaking his head like a rattle, obviously frightened by the name of the Water Domain.
"You're so afraid of the monsters of the Water Domain?"
"It's not a question of being scared or not, the key is ......" The shrimp ghost was still dying, rolled his eyes, and then said, "The key is that the five mountain guards have already agreed, and the demon beasts anywhere cannot easily cross the line, and those who violate the order will die!"
"If you don't go with me, you're not afraid that I'll kill you right now?" Zhou Nian said with a playful expression.
"Then you do it, it's a death horizontal, I'd rather die in my hometown!"
Zhou Nian stared at it with a scrutinizing face, looking at it as if it was a broken jar, it really didn't look like it was reckless.
Sighing slightly, Zhou Nian didn't want to force it too tightly, for the sake of today's plan, only to get the water beads as soon as possible is the most important thing.
"Well, well, since you don't want to go, then I'll let you go, remember, you owe me another life. ”
"Huh?" The shrimp ghost was stunned, he didn't expect Zhou Nian to be so arrogant and unreasonable, if he didn't let himself go, he should have his life, what kind of logic is this.
But after thinking about it again, since Zhou Nian was going to avoid the water droplets, and ran into the demon beast, he specified that there was no return, and he said that he owed him a life, so he owed him, anyway, the kindness of the dead did not have to be repaid.
From the moment Zhou Nian decided to snatch the water droplets, he was already a dead man in the eyes of the shrimp ghost.
