Chapter 16: The Five Rats
The fire boy walked along the footprints for three days and three nights, the footprints of the giant ghost suddenly disappeared, a high mountain appeared in front of him, and the sound of wind and thunder faintly came from the top of the mountain, the fire boy did not know what this place was, and did not dare to go up the mountain rashly, so he wanted to find someone to inquire, at this time, an old woman who was chopping wood came to meet her, carrying a bundle of firewood and walking with difficulty.
The fire boy stepped forward and saluted, "Old woman, what kind of place is this? Have you ever seen a tall giant ghost?"
The old woman raised her sleeve and wiped the sweat from the corner of her forehead, and replied, "The old man still has to carry firewood back to cook, you go and ask others!" After speaking, she picked up the firewood again and walked forward.
"Old woman, I'll carry it for you. The fireboy snatched the firewood and carried it on his back.
"Kid, put it down! Don't be tired of you, the mountain road is not easy to walk, be careful not to fall!"
"I'm not tired! I'm so strong, you don't have to worry about me. The fire boy said with a grin.
"What a sensible child!" said the old woman, with an approving smile on her wrinkled face.
After walking for a while, the old woman beckoned to the boy and said, "Son! The boy put the bundle of wood on the ground and helped the old woman to sit down on a large rock.
"What did you just ask me about? Look at my memory. The old woman chattered and said: "This mountain is called Lei Gong Mountain, there is a Lei Gong Cave on the mountain, it is said that there is a Lei Gong living in the cave, the demons and monsters dare not go to the mountain, there is a black mountain three thousand miles to the north here, it is said that there are many ghosts and monsters, is the giant ghost you are looking for live there?
The fire boy took the wooden box, opened the lid, and saw that there was a talisman inside, which was painted with a simple and mysterious pattern, which was exactly the same as the invisibility talisman that Yu'er's sister had used.
When the fire boy just wanted to turn around and thank the old woman, the old woman had disappeared, and knew which golden immortal had come to enlighten him, so he bowed a few times to the air, and prayed: "This golden immortal senior blesses the disciple to find that giant ghost and rescue those captured creatures!" After praying, he wanted to go north around Lei Gong Mountain, but as soon as he walked into the woods, he heard a voice say: "You are here! I'm waiting for you!" The voice was extremely high-pitched, and I didn't know what it was coming from.
"Hey, who is calling me? Could it be the senior sister of the Lihuo Sect? Listening to the voice, this girl should have been scared away by the appearance of the giant ghost. The fireboy looked around, but saw nothing, so he paid no attention to it, and went on his way.
But after walking a few steps, the voice sounded again: "You're here! I'm waiting for you!"
"Are you calling me?" said the fire boy paused, looking around.
Still no one answered. At this time, it was already evening, a gust of night wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the fire boy felt that his scalp was a little explosive, "Could it be that you have encountered a ghost?" He said to himself, "I have the blessing of the Golden Immortal seniors, and I am not afraid of any demons and monsters!" Thinking of this, his courage was strong.
He walked towards the place where the sound had come from, but it seemed to be deliberately guiding him, and every time he stopped, the voice would sound again, leading him all the way up the Lei Gong Mountain.
When the fire boy heard the roar of thunder on the top of the mountain, he couldn't help but be curious, and decided to go to the top of the mountain to meet this Lei Gong senior, so he walked to the mountain.
The sound led him to the top of the hill and disappeared, and as soon as he went up the hill he found a huge cave, from which came the sound of wind and thunder.
"There must be something weird in this hole. The fire boy was intrigued and decided to explore the cave.
Not far into the cave, a strong wind blew out of the cave, blowing his body out of the hole like a leaf, and he fell heavily to the ground, stained with mud and sand.
"How can there be such a strong wind in this cave?" he wiped the sand from his face, and went into the cave again, but before he could go far, he was blown out by the strong wind.
"Could it be that this Lord Lei Gong doesn't want to see me? This senior should also be a senior master of the Golden Immortal Period, right? I have to go in and pay a visit!"
"Nanhai sent a disciple to the fire boy to meet Lord Lei Gong!" The fire boy shouted twice towards the cave, but there was only the sound of whirring wind in the cave, and no one came out.
"It seems that this Lord Lei Gong wants to test my skills!" So he found a stone the size of a grinding plate, raised it above his head with two hands, and slowly walked into the cave, although he was still inevitably blown by the wind, but he barely walked in, and was not blown out by the wind again.
The further he went, the sound of wind and thunder in the cave became quieter, and the fire boy saw a wind gust in front of him, blocking the way, and a huge banana fan was hanging in the air.
The fire boy suddenly understood: "It turns out that this banana fan is doing something wrong! It is the sound of wind and thunder emitted by the mana of this magic weapon blessed by the wind array, this thing is not an ordinary mortal product, if you want to enter the hole, you have to break this wind array first, it seems that you have to try the mini Qimen to this wind array tube does not work." ”
Thinking of this, the fire boy took out the miniature strange door from the storage bag, embedded it in the wind array, a white light flashed, and the person entered the center of the wind array, he jumped up and grabbed the banana fan, pulled it down from mid-air, the wind burst a wail, and immediately collapsed and disappeared, and the banana fan fell into his hand in good shape.
This fan is full of aura, it should be a top-level magic weapon, he looked at this newly obtained treasure very happily, tried to inject a little spiritual power into the fan, it felt like a bottomless pit without end, one-third of the mana on the body was used up, the fan did not react at all, it seems that if he wants to use this fan, he must first refine it, but to refine it requires a lot of mana, because the cave has not been explored, he did not dare to consume all the mana, so he happily collected the mana and carried the fan on his shoulder。 His storage bag was already full, and he couldn't put any extra things anymore, it was just a lowest-level magic weapon, and the capacity couldn't be compared to Yu'er's sister's storage bracelet at all, it was a high-level magic weapon, and the capacity was ten times that of a low-level storage bag, if only he had a magic weapon like that.
After walking for about half a candle of incense, there was a faint light in front of the cave, as if it was coming in through a gap in the roof of the cave. The fire boy put down the fan against the cave wall, took out his burning stick, held it in his hand, and was on full alert, for fear that some demon beast would suddenly come out of it.
Turning a corner, the scene in front of him startled the fire boy: he saw several hideous-looking and extremely ugly monsters squatting in the stone chamber at the bottom of the cave, and they were about to quietly withdraw, but they were discovered by the monsters, roared, and pounced on them with their teeth and claws.
The fire boy hurriedly released a white protective magic shield, clenched the fire stick and prepared to fight, but after waiting for a while, the monsters were still spinning in place, and they didn't really pounce. When I looked closely, I saw that the monsters were locked with iron chains, and the other end of the chains was locked to the stone wall, and no matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't get rid of the restraints.
After seeing it clearly, the fire boy let out a sigh of relief and said, "You monsters play slowly! This immortal official will not accompany you!" After speaking, he turned around and left.
"Master Xianguan, help! We are willing to recognize you as the Lord, and I ask you to be merciful and rescue us. Several monsters knelt on the ground in unison, and they even spoke.
"These monsters can actually talk?" The fire boy was very curious, and when he looked closely, he saw that there were four spirit rats with four layers of Qi refining period: one was a rat spirit with black hair, one was a hedger spirit with long thorns all over his body, like a big thorn ball, one was a mole spirit with gray hair and two big teeth, and one was a flying squirrel spirit with wings under his ribs, all of them were extremely obscene and ugly.
"You want me to rescue you? What a big joke, what's the use of me taking you ugly bastards? I'm scared to death! Don't save you! Don't save you! You are locked here by Lei Gong, you must have done something unseemly bad, let you fend for yourself!" The fire boy put away the protective shield and turned around to get out of the hole.
At this moment, he felt that something was tugging at the corner of his clothes, and when he looked down, he couldn't help but be startled, "、、、、、、Ahhh
