The river is on the side, and it is rattling. One person, one cat, relatively speechless. The cat, of course, is Kailas, the black cat who has shown his excellent camouflage skills in Jiefa Town, and sometimes even his companions will accidentally treat him as a normal cat. One person, but not Atta. The swordswoman seems to be more interested in the bustling construction site, she doesn't like to be cold, and no one who has a heart does not like to be cold, because then the heart will come up and disturb her thoughts. So, that man was Kenqi, who was assigned by Cheese to make a trap for hunting river monsters. He seems to be very skilled at doing this kind of thing.

"You seem to be pretty skilled at making traps, and the swordsmith is also a part-time hunter?" the cat fairy paced beside the trap, watching the man stick the sharpened wooden thorn into the earth.

"Hey, don't make fun of me. Jian Qi said and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, "I learned this craft from Orion. I used to travel with hunting parties and they taught me a lot. ”

The cat fairy didn't speak, and leaned over to Jian Qi's side to look at the hidden nails he had buried, "According to the gray robe, that thing is very large, and your wooden nails had better be longer." ”

"It can't be any longer, and it will break if you step on it any longer. Moreover, no matter what kind of animal it is, the soles of the feet are weak parts, and once pierced, the pain will be intense. That's enough. ”

Kairas raised his head and stared at Kenqi, "You're merciful now, and then you might let the others die." That thing is not an opponent that can be handled so casually. There's a reason why the Grey Robe lets you set a trap. ”

"I know. Whether it is a mountain spirit or a river monster, these ghosts have a good resistance to the arts, they can't be burned by fire, they can't be immersed in water, and that Mr. Qi just understood this matter and let me come. Kenqi struck another wooden nail as he spoke, "But I don't think things will be the way you say." As you heard, I have a way to deal with the river monster, and it's no exaggeration to say that I can do this kind of thing alone. ”

"You seem to have a lot of sympathy for the river monster. I'll admit, you're right, that thing is really no match for ordinary magic. But you don't know the means of the gray robe. Besides, without relying on the gray robe, Taran's sword is enough to kill the target. Don't tell me you don't know, you look at Taran's three eyes, both eyes are aimed at her sword, if the sword gate you came from is really like what you said, then you can definitely see it. The cat fairy tilted his head, as if questioning the other party. Unlike his attitude towards Batuu at the beginning, Kairas is obviously quite wary of Jian Qi and looks for trouble with the latter at every turn.

Jian Qi blinked, a nostalgic expression on his face, "To tell you the truth, I do sympathize with her." Maybe it's a different concept, in my hometown, although the spirits are mostly rumors, but in fact, they are not so obvious to distinguish from humans. Not to mention anything else, the famous families in my hometown often provide for great immortals like you at home. Of course, it doesn't have to be a cat, as long as it is willing to be kind to others, we will provide it. Even our Son of Heaven, like the king here, has to sacrifice to the gods of the four directions according to the calendar of the sun and the moon, in order to seek a smooth wind and rain, and the country and the people are safe. Most of the river monsters like this will also build temples and shrines by the water, so that they can live and serve. Because of this, whether they know that gods and monsters really exist, or just regard them as legends, most of them will not kill these things. There is no need, the heavens and the earth are very wide, and they are fighting for him. ”

This time, the cat fairy didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't know much about the hometown in the mouth of the sword, so he couldn't tell if it was the truth or the wishful thinking of the sword seeker. Is this possible? If so, what kind of society should it be? Still, Kailas came back to his senses from the distance that the language depicted, "This is not your hometown. The people here are also not interested in ghost worship. The struggle between man and the sky, and between man and the earth, is the norm here. Just like the spell of the gray robe, everything is just a medium, and only the only self is worth pursuing. ”

"Ten miles of different winds, thousands of miles of different customs. I totally understand and respect it. Just understanding and respecting doesn't mean I have to be 100% of the way I go, right? I can always find a way to satisfy the people here without going against my heart. As long as my recommendations are implemented, no one will have to die. Therefore, I still need Uncle Cat to help me at that time. ”

"Whatever you want, as long as you can achieve your goal, I don't care if that thing dies or not. With that, as if bored, Kairaz jumped onto a nearby tree and climbed down in the shade. It's just that those vertical pupils are still staring at Jian Qi condescendingly. The reason he gave was reasonable, and it would be best if he could do it without harming each other. Only, is this really possible?

"Woo!" the wolf howl in the forest was not as distant as on the grassland, and it was a little more gloomy and unpredictable. The cat fairy in the tree stretched out, and the midday sun had turned the characteristic red of the setting sun. The trap is basically done. Jian Qi was doing the final checks one by one. At this time, hearing the howl of the wolf, the sword-seeker vigilantly untied the stick on his back and brought it to his hand. The voice wasn't too far away.

"Don't be vigilant, it's not coming at us. Jumping directly from the treetops, but landing on all fours unharmed, the black cat also looked in the direction where the voice came from, "The wolves in the mountains will not easily approach human settlements. Especially those with walls like Jiefa Town, they know that they can't bargain. Besides, now that the mountains and forests are dense, there is no worry about having nothing to eat. They are called. ”

"You mean, the river monster brought in the wolves?" Kenqi immediately understood what Kairas meant, and he also understood what he was talking about when he wasn't coming at them. The river monster didn't target them, because there was a bigger goal than this one person and a cat, and in particular, that goal was trying to sabotage the death situation she had carefully arranged, which was unbearable.

"Let's go, go to the construction site. With that, the cat goblin had already turned into a black shadow. He didn't think that the wolves could hurt Atta, but if the river monster could attract wolves, who knew what else she could summon? The looming black shadow in the woods made him feel a strong sense of unease, something was chasing Atta, and those things never gave up, only to be slowed down by the dragon fire that Cheese had on the prairie. After all this time, it's time for new shoots to sprout on the charred tree.

Thinking of this, Kairaz slowed down a little more so that Kenqi could keep up with him. The black cat swept over the latter's shoulder, hanging the Feiyan sword behind Jian Qi in his mouth, and without clothes, he could only hold the sword in this way. The faint smell of charcoal in the air seemed to prove that kind of speculation, the cat fairy simply stopped, took the sword in his hand, and prepared for battle, he glanced at Jian Qi, "Boy, what iron tools do you have on you?"
