Chapter 59: The Watchdog
"Isn't the kennel just a kennel?"
Xia Ye wanted to laugh a little, who is this so brainless and compares himself to a dog?
On the right side of the courtyard there is a small square pool, beside which there is a loquat tree, and a tall figure sits cross-legged under it.
"Is it really a dog?"
Xia Ye was speechless, with a dog's head and body, and thick golden body hair, but when he looked at each other, he gave people the feeling of talking to humans.
No, people do speak, and it seems to have a bit of a dialect flavor.
The golden retriever had elbows on his knees, half-clenched fists and his cheeks dragged his cheeks, looking lazy, and a wooden chessboard was placed in front of him, and a few black and white pieces had been dropped.
"Tsk, it's not just a dog, it's an alpha dog!"
Xia Ye pondered the wording, but the other party spoke first: "You have two choices now, one, go back the way you came, and two, continue to move forward and enter the maze in front!"
"What's the difference?"
Xia Ye saw the arched gate of a plant labyrinth on the opposite side, which looked unprosperous and quiet, but he estimated that there must be danger inside.
"Choose to return, you will leave this country, although there will be no danger to your life, but you will also completely lose the Great Wilderness Ten Thousand Souls Sutra, and you will no longer be able to use it!"
The Golden Retriever explains.
"If you choose to enter the labyrinth, your divine sense will not only be tempered, but the Great Wilderness All Souls Sutra will also open up more permissions to you, that is, you can use more magical abilities of the scriptures. ”
The golden retriever looked at Xia Ye, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "You don't think that cats and dogs can use this scripture, right?"
"Understood!"
Xia Ye is not surprised, who doesn't want secret magic treasures, but if you get them, you must have the wisdom and force to control them.
"In this way, your so-called kingdom is in the Great Wilderness Ten Thousand Souls Sutra?"
"Human, don't take my word for it!"
The Golden Retriever Man sneered: "But out of the duty of a gatekeeper, I must remind you that this is not an illusion, but a real existence, and in this country, once you die, you are really dead, so don't leave anything to chance." ”
"So, entering the labyrinth is bound to be dangerous?"
Xia Ye wants to laugh, janitor? Obviously it's a watchdog, okay!
"Yes!"
The golden retriever watchdog was a little impatient: "After explaining, you now have three minutes to decide, leave, or move forward, if you don't make a decision in three minutes, I will kill you!"
"What's behind the labyrinth?"
Natsuno asked.
"When you're past the labyrinth, see for yourself!"
The watchdog pinched up a white piece and put it on the chessboard, regardless of whether he could play Go or not, but this posture was quite presentable.
"The danger of the labyrinth is deadly enough?"
Natsuno looked out and wanted to observe the plant maze, but he couldn't see anything.
The watchdog no longer answered.
"There should be a trial level ahead, right? If I make it through the maze and want to quit halfway through, is it okay?"
Xia Ye didn't seem to notice the watchdog's coldness and continued to ask.
The watchdog didn't say a word, and he didn't even sweep Xia Ye's eyelids.
Three minutes was not a long time, and as time passed, the tangled on Xia Ye's face became heavier and heavier, and his brows were almost twisted.
"Okay, when the time comes, what about your decision?"
The watchdog asked.
"Do I have a choice?"
Xia Ye showed a wry smile: "The three ancient psychic scrolls that I finally got are like being smashed by Goddess Luck's underwear, who is willing to give up?"
"Hmph, you humans, one is more greedy than the other!"
The watchdog had already expected this answer, and humans were creatures that did not see the Yellow River and did not die: "Okay, no nonsense, you can enter the maze now, and in half an hour, I will set out to chase and kill, if you can escape from the maze before I bite you to death, you will win!"
"The rules are as simple as that?"
Xia Ye was stunned.
"Tell you, the last guy who said that, at thirty-five minutes, I tore him to rotten flesh!"
The watchdog Luozi: "Don't bother me anymore, go and struggle in the maze, if I have a good time, I can leave you a whole corpse!"
"Do you have a weapon? or armor, you can't let me be a bird walker, can you?"
Xia Ye still has a sense of shame, how is it to always be naked?
"The weapon is under the flower bed over there, dig it yourself, and as for the armor, make your own grass skirt and wear it!"
The watchdog sneered: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, all these wasted hours will be counted in half an hour." ”
Xia Ye rushed towards the flower bed, and without tools, he dug with his hands: "You won't be fooling me, will you?
"Within my duty, I won't lie!"
The watchdog's implication is beyond his duties, and it depends on his mood.
In this country, there is no difference from the real world, injuries will hurt, bleeding will die, Natsuno digging in the dirt, and his nails have a stinging pain that has been torn raw.
In order to save time, Xia Ye tried very hard, so soon blood flowed from the fingernails, but fortunately, the watchdog didn't lie to him.
A bronze sword was dug out.
Xia Ye slashed and tried, the weight was just right, and although it was stained with damp soil, it was extremely sharp, and it was a sharp weapon at first glance.
"It's quite patient!"
The watchdog pursed his lips and praised it, the weapon is buried very deeply, and it is very difficult to dig it out, and some people have asked before, but they can't stand this crime, and they are worried that there is not enough time, so they almost all give up halfway.
"Admire me? Can you tell me the trick out of the labyrinth?"
Xia Ye accompanied a smiling face and walked over quickly.
"Delusional!"
The watchdog was happy: "Labyrinth hunting, biting you alive, watching your painful expressions before death, listening to your miserable wails, is my greatest pleasure!"
"Is there any other way to win?"
Xia Ye didn't give up, and his eyes fell on the chessboard: "For example, winning you in Go?"
"What?"
The watchdog was stunned for a moment, and then it was like seeing a worm trying to challenge the gods, and he couldn't help laughing: "Haha, in this world, no one can beat me on the chessboard!"
"That's not necessarily, I'm not talented, and I still have some confidence in chess. ”
Xia Ye said, showing a smile: "If you are afraid, I can let you have three sons!"
"Okay, I'll make an exception and play against you first!"
The watchdog blonde was furious, it felt that its authority had been challenged, and it was going to teach this outspoken human a hard lesson.
"Sit down, I'll let you have three sons!"
The watchdog spoke in a cold tone, leaned over to clean up the chess pieces, and was obviously angry to the limit, but at this moment, Xia Ye suddenly burst out, grabbed the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand, and slashed at the watchdog.
Soul Slash!
Swish!
A bronze-colored afterimage shone like a midsummer firework, grazing the watchdog's neck.
Multiply!
Blood flashed and sprinkled all over the board, and a dog's head with an expression of disbelief rolled to the ground.
"Right? I'm afraid you're not out of your mind, right?"
Xia Ye sneered, and after the killing, he took advantage of the situation to make up a sword and pierced the guard dog's heart.
The courtyard fell silent, and a light breeze blew, carrying away the smell of blood.
"You didn't even think about playing against me, did you?"
The head on the ground suddenly spoke, and the voice was angry.
"Huh, have you reacted?"
Natsuno teased.
"You scheming dog!"
The watchdog yelled, and it knew it had been fooled: "When did you decide to use this tactic?"
"Just after you've said the two choices!"
Natsuno shrugged his shoulders and stared around, ready for possible surprises.
"Huh?"
The watchdog was surprised, and he didn't expect it at all: "So, in the three minutes you thought about it, your face was full of entanglement and hesitation, and you were acting?
"Ding Dong, answer correctly, add ten points!"
Xia Ye is indeed pretending, jokes, the god-level secret treasure of the Great Wilderness Ten Thousand Souls Sutra is worth fighting with his life.
In order not to attract the attention of the watchdog, he even gave up observing the watchdog out of the corner of his eye, knowing that even if he didn't speak, his expression would reveal some information.
"How do you know you can kill me?"
The watchdog gradually calmed down.
"Step by step!"
Xia Ye smiled and didn't hide it: "Walking birds or something, I don't care, saying that, the focus is to ask about weapons." ”
"What do you mean?"
The watchdog frowned.
"If you have a weapon, it means that I can fight, since there is a fight, there will naturally be victory and defeat and even death, since you are a watchdog, your identity is definitely not important, so attacking you, or even killing you, should not be a big problem. ”
Natsuno's poisonous tongue.
"You're the watchdog, your whole family is a watchdog!"
The golden retrievers on the watchdog's skull exploded.
"Don't get excited!"
Xia Ye smiled: "I just entered this country, and I met you, what do you say are you not a watchdog?"
"Ugh!"
The watchdog was speechless for a moment and almost choked to death, yes, only the watchdog would stand guard in the front courtyard to greet the newcomers.
"Getting out of the maze is a condition for customs clearance, so winning you is considered a customs clearance? Okay, even if it doesn't count, kill you, I don't have to worry about being hunted down, I can comfortably look for clues, and finally get out of the maze, anyway, I don't lose!"
Xia Ye had already calculated.
"Sure enough, you didn't want to play against me, so it's all about distracting me, approaching me, and giving me another fatal blow!"
The watchdog was depressed, and he had fallen for a human trick.
"Oh, I do know how to play Go, or an amateur three-dan Oh, proposing a game, in fact, there is another purpose, that is, to confirm that another way to win you, whether it is considered a clearance! You didn't say no, then it seems that no matter what way, as long as you win you, then killing you will naturally count!"
Natsuno was very thoughtful.
"Haven't you thought about what will happen if you miss?"
The watchdog asked.
"What else? Are you going to let me go if I don't do it?"
Xia Ye pouted: "Anyway, try it, even if I anger you, I can escape into the maze immediately, the big deal is to waste half an hour of running time, but I estimate that even if I run for two hours first, it is unlikely to escape from the maze." ”
