"Shhhh......h ”

The old man of the hundred poisons said so, and Ye Chen couldn't say anything, so he could only follow and turn into the appearance of the "Wangfu Stone", squatting on the ground and waiting for the return of the puppet beast.

With the appearance of the familiar trivial sound, Ye Chen's spirit, which was already a little free, suddenly concentrated, and when he raised his head, he saw that the wooden scorpion had already shaken the double pincers in his hand as if he were showing off his might, and he swayed back with a slick of poisonous scorpion spirit beasts.

"One, two, three, four......" Every time a poisonous scorpion spirit beast burrowed into the porcelain basin, the old man of the hundred poisons would softly write down a number. It's just that Ye Chen found that until the last one, the face of the old man with a hundred poisons didn't show too much joy, as if he had something on his mind.

"The seniors are...... Are you not very satisfied with this batch of poisonous scorpion spirit beasts that have been brought back?" Ye Chen asked tentatively.

"Nothing. The old man shook his head, pretending that nothing had happened, and ran towards the entrance of the cave as usual, carefully picking up the porcelain basin and leaving Ye Chen directly behind.

The old man of the hundred poisons held the porcelain basin and retreated step by step, although his movements looked no different from before, Ye Chen obviously felt a trace of awkwardness. It's just that Ye Chen didn't rush to break it, and kept silently watching the old man of the hundred poisons boil and drink the new pot of "scorpion soup", and he didn't say a word more.

Although he didn't make eye contact with Ye Chen's eyes, the old man seemed to feel that Ye Chen's gaze had been locked on him, and after drinking the last sip of the porcelain basin, he showed an uncomfortable look, and said: "Ouch, my body is really old and useless, and I was sleepy just after eating something, ah......" So, the old man yawned and put the porcelain basin aside, tilted his head and closed his eyes directly.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ye Chen became more and more sure that the old man must have something hidden in his heart. And Ye Chen is not so anxious to go down the mountain now, the old man of the hundred poisons is reluctant to say it at the moment, and he doesn't have to urge, he just needs to wait.

All night, the old man of the hundred poisons slept soundly, barely moved, and Ye Chen was also on the side as usual. It's just that Ye Chen didn't let himself enter a state of cultivation, but while resting, he divided a part of his divine soul power to observe the movements of the old man with a hundred poisons.

It wasn't until the night outside the cave receded and the sunlight reappeared that the old man suddenly opened his eyes, and without making any sound with a light movement, he sat up gently, slowly twisting his neck, and scanning his gaze in the cave, as if he wanted to confirm Ye Chen's situation.

However, although the movements of the old man of the hundred poisons were extremely slight, he still couldn't resist Ye Chen, who had already left a heart. As soon as the old man sat up, Ye Chen had already opened his eyes, and when the old man swept the ray, the eyes of the two undoubtedly converged.

"Well, it's rare to see a hard-working young man like you, who got up as early as my old man. The surprise in the eyes of the old man of the hundred poisons flashed, obviously he didn't expect Ye Chen to wake up, and the expression on his face was inevitably a little embarrassed, "At my age, I don't need to rest for so long, but you, young man, don't you want to rest and rest ......?"

"No need. Ye Chen smiled and moved his gaze to the direction of the entrance of the cave, which made the face of the old man of the hundred poisons more comfortable, and then said: "Although it is just dawn outside, the junior remembers that when the junior got up yesterday, the senior had already brought back a pot full of poisonous scorpions, it seems that the senior should be hungry when he wakes up now, right?"

"Ah, that's right, that's right, I've been a habit I've developed for many years, and I'll wake up naturally when it's time, you young man is really observant. ”

"The seniors have won the prize. The conversation between the two seemed to be harmonious, but in the next sentence, Ye Chen suddenly changed his words and said: "However, the juniors still remember that yesterday the seniors said that they could teach the juniors how to communicate with the puppet beasts. If the juniors can learn it by chance, they can also let the seniors rest and help the seniors bring back the treasures they need. ”

Ye Chen's words made the old man with a hundred poisons, whose face had just eased down, become embarrassed again, and his eyes wandered around the cave evasively, and finally he sighed helplessly, and said, "I won't tell you, old man, I just said this sentence yesterday, and I already regretted it in my heart." Since you've always kept it in mind...... Well, it doesn't hurt to teach you!"

Ye Chen could see that the old man of the hundred poisons had obviously made a lot of determination when he made the final decision, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and then took out the wooden scorpion that he regarded as a heavy treasure, "Silly boy, what are you still doing in a daze, don't you want this thing?" ”

"Huh?" Ye Chen was stunned and stretched out his hand to take the wooden scorpion in the hand of the old man with a hundred poisons, and he didn't react a little, "Didn't the seniors say that they wanted to teach the juniors how to communicate with the puppet beast......s?

"Teach, old man, if I had the ability to teach you, I would have infiltrated the puppet sect a long time ago. This puppet beast is also thanks to the fact that it added my essence blood when it was refining, so that it can listen to me to some extent, and even so, I still can't play many of its uses. The old man pursed his lips, looking a little angry, "Okay, if you kid has that talent, you should be able to establish a connection with this puppet beast when you get it." Otherwise, you're just like the old man and me, and you don't have the talent to practice puppetry. ”

After listening to the words of the old man of the hundred poisons, Ye Chen couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, he thought that the reason why the old man of the hundred poisons twisted was that he didn't want to tell himself this method, but in the end, he had nothing to tell himself at all. Thinking about it like this, Ye Chen suddenly had a feeling of being deceived, and even saw a bit of a scoundrel from the smile on the face of the old man with a hundred poisons.

Ye Chen didn't have time to sigh and think about what to do, only to feel a sudden heart-piercing pain in the palm of his hand, and when he lowered his head, he saw that the wood scorpion had already made a move at some point, and was stabbing its sharp tail thorn in his palm.

Enduring the pain in his palm, Ye Chen didn't dare to shake off the wooden scorpion directly, so he could only change it from his right hand to his left hand, and then observe the wound in his palm for the first time to see if he needed to take any treatment measures.

"Don't worry, although this puppet beast looks like this, it is different from those poisonous scorpion spirit beasts, and it is not poisonous in itself. ”

The old man of the hundred poisons spoke in time, which made Ye Chen breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and for a while, Ye Chen didn't care about the ridicule mixed in the words of the old man of the hundred poisons, and immediately focused his attention on the puppet beast in the left palm, for fear that one would accidentally suffer another loss in the same place.

Fortunately, this time the wood scorpion did not show any abnormal movement, but just held its head high and stared directly at Ye Chen with those dark green eyes.
