Chapter 13: Baby Carp Heart
Qing Fei was about to say the strange scene he saw at that time, Li Kunlun suddenly interrupted him and said, "I still have to prepare something, the task of evacuating unrelated people on the Huxin Pavilion tonight will be handed over to you, and I will go to the Huxin Pavilion at ten o'clock in the evening to listen to you tell ghost stories." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Saying his evil smile, his figure suddenly became transparent, Cheng Ying's eyes widened, and he reached out to touch it, there were only empty tables and chairs, how could anyone be there?
Xiao Han said: "He's gone." ”
Cheng Ying said: "How do you know, maybe he was just hiding." ”
Xiao Han pointed to the ground, and saw a line of shallow footprints on the ground paved with green bricks, embedded in the green bricks, as if the green bricks were originally like this.
Qing Fei said: "It's not difficult to step out of the footprints of the green bricks, the difficulty is silent, just now I have been paying attention to the surrounding situation, but I still haven't noticed it at all." ”
Cheng Ying pouted and said, "If he can repair the green bricks back to their original appearance, it will be really strange." ”
"The bricks have been shattered into powder." Xiao Han stretched out his hand and scratched a few footprints, only to see that his hands were like flour, and each stroke was clearly recognizable.
Qing Fei said: "He did it on purpose, but even so, it was not enough to kill the baby carp king." ”
Cheng Ying said: "What's so powerful about the baby carp king?" ”
Qingfei looked into the distance and sighed leisurely: "The body is like steel, moving like thunder, amphibious and amphibious, and the strength is infinite." ”
Xiao Han said: "If it's just like that, I'll contain it on the side, and with Li Kunlun's sword qi, I will kill with one blow." There is still some certainty of success. ”
Qing Fei said: "I have been paying attention to baby carp for the past two years, and I have also found that baby carp is very sensitive to souls. Li Kunlun can hide from our eyes, which may not work for baby carp. ”
Xiao Han said: "It is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." You don't have to force anything. ”
Mid-Autumn Festival night, on the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Xiao Han and Cheng Ying were already waiting here at dusk, waiting from Jinwuxi to the east of the Jade Rabbit.
During the period, there were also people walking by in twos and threes, but they didn't feel strange, couples are really common in college, not to mention that the two are young like jade and girls are like flowers, and they are also very compatible.
Later, Cheng Ying simply leaned on Xiao Han's shoulder, looking at the sunset, Xiao Han whispered:
"The setting sun caresses the sparkling waves
Your laughter is a sweet song
Stain the immaculate ethereal of the sky
Ethereal is your unbeatable joy
Will you fulfill my fairy tale?
If my steps stop for you
If you would look back,
I stop and smile like a flower for you. ”
Cheng Ying smiled: "This love poem was also written by you?" ”
Xiao Han said: "It was written by Qingfei, and when I saw the sunset at this time, I realized that this cannot be regarded as a love poem." ”
Cheng Ying was a little unhappy and asked, "Why?" ”
Xiao Han said: "Because love poems belong to two people, but there is only one person in this poem." The encounter is beautiful, and if he can catch up, it will be a kind of romance. ”
Cheng Ying said: "I also think that he sometimes thinks too much, happiness is earned, if you don't take the initiative to meet it, you will inevitably live up to this encounter." But sometimes even if you take your heart out, people may not appreciate it. ”
Xiao Han said: "Maybe this is also the most suitable for him, his worries may not be completely unreasonable." Poor couples mourn everything, and it has been the same since ancient times. Except for his Taoism, he is just a useless scholar. ”
Cheng Ying said: "What about you?" ”
Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, and laughed at himself: "I'm just a useless person." ”
Cheng Ying said: "You have at least one advantage, that is, the poems are really average, but they are still read out seriously, and their skin is thick enough to defend against swords, isn't this the biggest benefit." ”
Xiao Han smiled: "In this way, isn't it really a pity that I don't enter the thick black door?" ”
As the night deepened, the yin grew heavier.
Cheng Ying fell asleep leaning on Xiao Han's shoulder.
The cold was in the sky, the evening breeze blew gently, Qingfei did not come, and Li Kunlun never appeared.
At this time, someone outside the pavilion coughed lightly, Xiao Han was startled, and Cheng Ying also woke up.
It was Li Kunlun who came, he saw Cheng Ying leaning on Xiao Han's shoulder, and he was jealous for no reason, thinking that the two must have been here for a long time, and this kind of intimate behavior may have been maintained for a long time, and the jealousy in his heart was even stronger.
Although Xiao Han already knew that Li Kunlun's magic was not herald, he could not detect it in advance anyway, and every time Li Kunlun arrived, Xiao Han was shocked. It's just because Li Kunlun can not only hide from himself and the people present every time, but also come and go freely every time, leaving no flaws.
Li Kunlun said coldly: "It's almost time, we can go down." ”
Xiao Han said: "Qingfei hasn't arrived yet, we don't know the situation below, let's wait a little longer." ”
Li Kunlun said: "Qingfei can't come, he has told me about the situation in the cave." It was not only his voice that was cold, but even his complexion.
Xiao Han asked, "What happened to him?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "He's fine." ”
Cheng Ying asked, "Why can't you come if it's okay?" ”
Li Kunlun's tone was still very cold, and he said, "Because Sun Tingting had an accident." ”
Xiao Han said: "What's wrong?" ”
Li Kunlun said: "Her one soul and one soul have been extinguished, and the remaining two souls and six spirits are also fluctuating, and they may come out of her body at any time." ”
Cheng Ying hurriedly said: "How can this be? ”
Li Kunlun comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Qing Fei has already used the Seven Star Lantern Life Continuation Technique to fix her soul, and there is no danger now." ”
Xiao Han said: "Let's make a quick decision, the Seven Star Lantern Life Continuation Technique is the most taboo for outsiders to disturb." ”
Cheng Ying said: "Then what are you waiting for, did Qing Fei tell you how to open the secret passage?" ”
Li Kunlun turned the stone tablet on the edge of the lower pavilion, and the stone slab in the pavilion suddenly sank, revealing a dark hole.
Li Kunlun walked down the stairs first, and Xiao Han instructed Cheng Yingdao: "You wait here, if we haven't come up in half an hour, you can go find Qingfei first." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Cheng Ying to answer, he had already floated down to the cave.
Xiao Han went down to the cave, Li Kunlun hadn't left yet, Xiao Han said, "Why don't you go forward?" ”
Li Kunlun's tone was not only cold, but also blunt, and said, "Something has changed. ”
Xiao Han said: "What happened? ”
Li Kunlun said: "When Qing flew down, there was only one passage here, but now there are two. ”
Xiao Han stared at it, sure enough, there were two passages, the cave was humid and stuffy, and the two passages were generally wide, and it was not easy which one had existed for a longer time.
Xiao Han thought for a while and said, "Let's choose one each, and once we find something wrong, we will quit immediately and help each other." Similarly, when you see the baby carp king, you don't have to be busy making a move, it's best to wait until both of you are there, and you will have a greater chance of success. With that, he entered the aisle on the left.
Just now he has been in a short moment, he has analyzed two tunnels, there is a faint fishy smell wafting in the hole on the left, since the baby carp is half of the fish, the characteristics of this fish naturally exist in it, so this tunnel has a greater chance of having baby carp, and it is more dangerous, so he picked this tunnel away first.
Behind him, Li Kunlun also slowly disappeared into the gloom.
Li Kunlun hid his body and walked cautiously all the way, now the tunnel is no longer the scene that Qing Fei saw when he first saw it, and no one knows if there are other unknown creatures in the cave except for the baby carp, which undoubtedly adds a lot of danger to this operation.
He remembered what Qing Fei had told him, the Infant Carp King would have a half-hour period of weakness at noon at the beginning of the month, and that was undoubtedly the best time to kill the Infant Carp King, but with Sun Tingting's current state, it seemed that she couldn't wait until half a month later to do it.
On the night of the full moon, the Infant Carp King is many times more fierce than usual, and although it is more dangerous to kill the Infant Carp King, it is not completely out of the question. Because when the baby carp king sucks the power of the moon yin, the baby carp king will come out of the water at that time, and when the baby carp opens its mouth, its eyes will be closed, and that is also the best time to make a sneak attack.
If this opportunity can be grasped, it will be easier to attack the Baby Carp King than at other times.
His heart fluttered at the thought of giving this most rare gift to his most beloved. But thinking that Cheng Ying really didn't know what she wanted for her, there was a sense of loss in my heart. Cheng Ying leaned on Xiao Han's shoulder, the two of them were like a couple in the moonlight, and there was three more points of anger in his heart.
He forcibly calmed down, and there would be a big battle later, and he had to be absolutely distracted.
He had only walked a few dozen steps, and suddenly there was light in front of him, moonlight, and there was a crack in the roof of the cave, and the moonlight shone through the crack in the stone.
In the moonlight was a waterhole, as calm as stagnant water.
Li Kunlun felt slightly strange, what Qing Fei told him was that on the night of the full moon, the infant carp king jumped on the shore alone and sucked the moonlight, and there were more than a dozen infant carp in the waterhole, exhaling a cold breath while arching their hands.
But now, the moonlight has shone into the hole, but there is not even a baby carp.
The moonlight gradually shifted, and the light in the cave also turned, and Li Kunlun was about to quit, when a sound of rushing water sounded, and a child appeared on the water.
His ****'s upper body is no different from that of an ordinary child, and his lower body is immersed in water.
Is this a baby carp? Li Kunlun had some doubts in his heart, although he had used his sword qi to slash a baby carp on the shore of Mochou Lake before, but the baby carp had never jumped out of the water at that time, and he only felt a trace of danger and reacted instinctively. At that time, he didn't know what he was killing, and he didn't even investigate it afterwards.
At this time, the one he saw was clearly a child, maybe the water was too cold, and his face looked a little blue, but he didn't look like a monster made of evil magic.
Li Kunlun endured and hid his body, after all, it is impossible for children to come here to dive now.
I saw the little boy paddling with his arms, swimming a few laps in the pool, and then swimming towards the shore, splashing behind him.
When he swam to the shore, he saw that his arms were propped up, and his body had reached the shore.
Li Kunlun also saw a huge carp tail at this time, and the place where the child originally had two legs suddenly turned into a fish tail.
If you look at any part alone, you won't find it strange, but combining the two into one is not only strange, but also weird.
Li Kunlun had heard Qingfei talk about the appearance of the baby carp before, but it was one thing to hear about it, and it was another thing to see it with his own eyes.
Now he suddenly felt a little heavy in his heart, he only had pity in his heart now, looking at the innocent face of the baby carp, he felt that he really couldn't do it.
Before, he had only heard of the terrible and evil of the baby carp, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't connect these two words with the baby carp in front of him.
"Maybe it's just a rumor from the world." He chuckled inwardly. Not only had he never seen it before, let alone heard of the name of the baby carp, and even now, he had only heard that the baby carp could devour souls, but he still hadn't seen it, and he already had some doubts about whether the baby carp was really that evil.
The pale moonlight was shining on the young carp's blue face, and the huge fishtail swayed gently.
I saw that the baby carp opened its mouth wide in the moonlight, and at this time, his eyes were really closed, and the surrounding evil qi converged towards him.
Now is the best time to make a move, Li Kunlun is sure, the sword qi he emitted can definitely divide the baby carp into two halves.
But he didn't want to make a move, and at this time in his eyes, the baby carp were so pathetic, and their very existence was a tragedy, the product of a despicable experiment.
It's just that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty. For the sake of the nourishment of the soul of the infant carp heart, he caused himself to be killed.
Li Kunlun just wants to quit here now and stay away.
At this time, the baby carp had already devoured the yin qi, and the cave did not feel so cold. The baby carp suddenly looked at Li Kunlun, his two eyes were like two black gems, as if he judged that Li Kunlun had no ill will towards him, he stretched out his arms, his mouth opened slightly, as if to say: "Hug-" but did not make any sound.
Li Kunlun didn't expect the baby carp to see him, and he was shocked in his heart, seeing that the baby carp's movements were clearly an innocent child. Li Kunlun was sad for a while, who was so ruthless as to mutilate an innocent child like this?
Li Kunlun walked over slowly, gently hugged the baby carp, he only felt that his tentacles touched a piece of Xuanbing, he shivered suddenly, and his hand bounced away.
The baby carp opened its mouth wide, as if it was giggling, but it couldn't make the slightest sound, and it danced happily.
Li Kunlun was amused by his cute appearance and laughed.
Li Kunlun hugged the baby carp again, this time he was on guard, and his tentacles no longer felt how cold, but the baby carp was slippery and greasy, this time he still couldn't hold him firmly, and the baby carp slipped away from between his arms.
Li Kunlun knew that this was a means of self-protection for the baby carp, and if the animals that lived in the water were not wrapped in hard scales and exposed skin, they would inevitably secrete a large amount of mucus, forming a mucus layer.
Just as fish scales have a protective effect on fish, mucus has a similar function. Although it cannot block the impact of hard objects, it can prevent the invasion of germs. It is also with the presence of mucus that the skin of the fish can be impermeable to water, which is used to maintain a constant osmotic pressure in the fish, so that they can adapt to changes in the concentration of salt in the water.
Fish swim flexibly in the water, and thanks to this layer of mucus, the resistance of the water to the fish is reduced.
The third time, Li Kunlun finally picked up the baby carp, and the baby carp did not resist at all, opened his black eyes wide, and looked at Li Kunlun quietly.
Li Kunlun only felt that the baby carp was very light, much lighter than a baby of the same size.
