Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Three-Tailed Blood Scorpion
This place is already relatively deep in the swampy forest, to say that just let a delicate princess walk around alone, Xiao Liu is really not so ruthless.
So he opened his mouth to suggest
"Your Royal Highness, you came alone, do you want me to send you back?"
The beautiful Donghuang Xue smiled secretly in her heart, it seemed that the young man in front of her really didn't recognize that she was Xiaoxue who had been saved by him once, she was playful, so at this time she turned straight and replied in a light voice
"Since I'm here to participate in the hunting festival, it's naturally impossible for me to just go back. You said you were going to send me back, but did you look down on me? I'm very good!"
Xiao Liu really didn't think that a princess like a flower could have much ability, but he could only wave his hand awkwardly
"I didn't mean that, absolutely not. In that case, then the princess of this place will use it. I'm going to find another place to stay. ”
Xiaoliu is not familiar with others, so he thinks that he should keep a certain distance, since the other party has said that he is very powerful, then he doesn't want to do much.
Donghuangxue wanted to leave as soon as she saw that Xiao Liu finished speaking, and she immediately became anxious
"Don't go! Princess Ben orders you to hunt with me!"
It seemed that she realized that her tone made Xiao Liu suspicious, and she hurriedly corrected it
"I mean, let's act together, and then the credit for the monsters we killed will be yours, what do you think? Actually, I'm only here to increase my knowledge, and my grades are of no use to me. ”
Xiao Liu just came out of the tree hole, and after hearing this, he nodded and agreed to the princess's suggestion after a little thought.
If he can have one more helper, he can naturally achieve better results, and at the same time, he is really a little relieved to let this girl go alone.
"Great! I knew you'd say yes. So let's get out of here, shall we?"
Donghuangxue successfully concealed her identity, and at the same time successfully persuaded Xiaoliu that she slapped a pair of snow-white hands like a child and died happily.
"That....... Your Highness Princess, I just wanted to rest and spend the night in this tree hole, the forest at night is too dangerous to walk around. Let's go hunting tomorrow. ”
Xiao Liu's words made Donghuangxue disappointed for a while, and she didn't know why, since she entered the forest, she had never encountered any demon beasts, as if all the demon beasts had disappeared.
If it weren't for that, how could she stick to Xiaoliu?
"Alright then, you discovered this tree hole first, so you can rest here. I'll go somewhere else and come back to you at dawn. ”
Donghuangxue had no choice but to speak after being disappointed.
"No, you should stay here, I'll go and rest in the big tree next to me. ”
After that, Xiao Liu jumped up and went directly to a big tree only a dozen meters away from here, and Mo Wu reminded Xiao Liu that he naturally confirmed that there was no danger there before he dared to go up so directly.
Although the treetops are not as comfortable as those in the tree holes, and there are certain risks, in order to be able to take care of Her Royal Highness the princess, Xiaoliu has to sacrifice it.
He sat cross-legged on a tree and began to exercise to recover his expending vitality and physical strength.
Donghuang Xue glanced at Xiao Liu in cultivation again, and then pouted as if she was not satisfied with something, and went into the tree hole by herself.
Although the environment in the tree hole is very bad, it is still very novel for Donghuangxue, who has been pampered since she was a child and has never seen much of the world, and soon she put aside other emotions and curled up in it and fell asleep quietly.
Xiao Liu knew through Mo Wu that the princess below was already asleep, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
A princess is a princess, in this dangerous place, how can she sleep so dead like her?
Here, even if you rest, you must stay awake for three minutes, otherwise you may not know how to die.
After Xiao Liu was helpless, he had to ask Mo Wu to help him pay attention to the surrounding movements in case of accidents.
Three hours passed quickly, and after Xiao Liu's luck was restored, his combat effectiveness had returned to his peak, and at the same time, the physical strength and vitality that had been replenished after consumption had also been slightly improved in this way.
Just when Xiao Liu was planning to continue to improve his cultivation, Mo Wu's warning came to his mind
"Stop cultivating, something is coming. ”
When Xiao Liu heard this, the muscles of his whole body immediately tensed, and he entered a state of imminent battle, although it was pitch black around him, his eyes could see through the falsehood, and he began to look around, trying to find the thing in Mo Wu's mouth.
Knowing that Suosuo's voice came into Xiao Liu's ears, following the source of the sound, Xiao Liu looked over, in the dark swamp, there were scattered leaves and dead branches everywhere, and a body was about half a person tall, and two people were more than two people long, and they were quietly swimming over.
The appearance of this thing is pitch black, so even with Xiao Liu's eyesight, he can't see what kind of monster it is for the time being, but the size of this thing is not an ordinary beast at first glance!
Gradually, the monster got closer and closer, and finally let Xiao Liu see its true face.
A scorpion-like monster beast with two front claws larger than its own body was passing by, and what was most impressive about it was not its black-glowing armor or its huge pair of pincers, but the three scorpion tails that swayed freely behind it.
"This is a three-tailed blood scorpion, a Xuan-rank eight-rank demon beast, its tail contains highly poisonous, and after stabbing the enemy, it will also use its tail to extract the enemy's blood and suck it, which is extremely ferocious. You shouldn't be its opponent right now. However, it seems that it did not notice that there was anyone here, just passing by. You just have to be quiet and wait for it to pass. ”
Mo Wu gave Xiao Liu a suggestion in time, and Xiao Liu nodded silently at the moment, staring at the ugly-looking but dangerous guy slowly crawling past.
The three-tailed blood scorpion is indeed just like what Mo Wu said, he didn't find Xiao Liu at all, and Donghuang Xue was sleeping in the tree hole again, as long as the two of them didn't make any sound, the three-tailed blood scorpion would not find them.
This kind of demon beast doesn't rely on the sense of smell to find enemies, so Xiao Liu and they are very lucky.
After the three-tailed blood scorpion crawled under the big tree where Xiao Liu was, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Donghuang Xue in the tree hole suddenly whispered without warning, "Oops!
The cry was not loud, but it broke the subtle calm in the silence of the night like a *.
"Damn it!"
Xiao Liu scolded in his heart, the broken princess is not too late or sooner, but at this time, she spoke out, is this unclear because she is looking for trouble?
The three-tailed blood scorpion's reaction was faster than Xiao Liu's, it was startled when it heard the sound, and it immediately stopped in place when it was crawling, and at the same time, its two front claws instinctively protected its relatively small body, and at the same time, the three highly venomous tails were raised high, ready to attack.
Xiao Liu knew that the three-tailed blood scorpion would only defend conservatively for the time being because it didn't know who the enemy was and how powerful it was, but once it found out that the princess was just a delicate human, it would definitely launch a thunderous attack.
At the moment, Xiao Liu didn't have time to think about it, and jumped directly to the tree hole before jumping over the three-tailed blood scorpion in the vigilance, he looked into the tree hole, and suddenly became angry, it turned out that the princess was still asleep, and the voice just now seemed to be just a dream she accidentally made!
At that moment, Xiao Liuer didn't say a word, stretched out his two big hands, and picked up Donghuang Xue out of the tree hole with one hand, and then immediately spread his legs and ran.
"Hmm...... what's going on? Oh, you let it go!
Donghuangxue was only woken up by the shaking at this time, she found that she was held by Xiao Liu's two hands across her chest, and immediately shouted reflexively, while her body writhed violently and struggled, and her hands kept slapping Xiao Liu's head and face.
"Holy!"
Xiao Liu couldn't help but burst into a foul language, and directly put the princess underground, if he didn't know that the princess didn't mean to, he really wanted to just throw her on the ground.
After landing on the ground, Donghuang Xueqi's face turned pale, and when she pointed at Xiao Liu, she just wanted to scold him for being well-dressed and beastly, Xiao Liuyi pulled her outstretched arm, dragged her forward and continued to run, and at the same time he said hurriedly
"Stop talking nonsense, look behind you!"
Donghuang Xue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then subconsciously looked in the direction they were passing by, and immediately a hideous-looking demon beast came into her eyes
"Ahh
Donghuangxue is not a fool, at this time she has already understood what happened just now, it seems that Xiao Liu discovered the demon beast in advance, and then saved herself from the monster's mouth before the other party attacked.
Thinking of her actions just now, Dong Huangxue was a little embarrassed, but the three-tailed blood scorpion behind him had already seen them, and chased after them angrily because of the fright just now.
There are five pairs of feet of this demon beast, of which the front foot is the most developed, that is, the front claw that is huge compared to its body, and the rest of the feet are much smaller, but at this time, the eight legs exert force together, and it is extremely fast, it is like a harvester rampage, and the place where it passes by is ploughed out of a long trace.
