Chapter 132: Parting
"I still need to get used to it, and the complexion on my face is also changing, which is too terrifying. Long Yuan looked at the reflection in the water and laughed. His face is half black and half white, and he has become a demonic yin and yang face.
Gathering his mind, Long Yuan tried to open the corner of the seal on the bone, and the corpse poison in the bone suddenly entered the flesh and blood.
This time, Long Yuan did not change as before, except for the two pairs of tiger teeth in his mouth, which grew by three points, and the pupils changed color, the rest of his body did not change.
"This feeling is still zombies. Long Yuan said. He could feel that after unlocking the corpse poison seal, he was equivalent to transforming into a zombie, but it was a more alternative zombie. In this state, there is no need to drink blood for a living, there is no desire to kill, there is no fear of the light of day, and the vitality is relatively tenacious.
As for whether he can live forever, Long Yuan does not know.
"There is a risk in unlocking the corpse poison seal, and if the corpse poison mutates, then you may never be able to go back after becoming a zombie. The scroll said that it still needed to be suppressed by the martial arts that had been cultivated to the point of Gang to Yang before it could be considered complete. There are also risks associated with this martial art. ”
Long Yuan lowered his head, thinking about how to get such a martial art, although Longsheng Jiuzi was his own martial art, it didn't seem to be what he needed the most at the moment, and the master also said not to practice Longsheng Jiuzi now.
Long Yuan didn't want to speak to the rat or the master anymore, he had already gained too much here.
Leaping up from the water stream, Long Yuan could feel that he was many times stronger now than before. The strength possessed by the body, the mastery of strength and the body, and the understanding of the soft and powerful hundred breaks, the dance of the sky, and the shaking of the fist have all improved too much.
Moreover, the injuries in his body have long since healed during this time, and the bones in his body are much stronger than before.
"When I have time to integrate the true qi into my body, I think I will be able to use the Dancing Technique freely after the recuperation. The corners of Long Yuan's mouth raised, and during this time, when he could not bear the pain, he used the Void Dancing Technique to hit the wooden stake, which made him understand the Void Dancing Technique more thoroughly.
Long Yuan collected the true qi in his body and returned to the sea of qi, and the black and white colors on his body also disappeared, revealing a new body of white flesh.
Back in the cave, Long Yuan went to find his baggage and changed into clothes.
"Someone running naked! shameless!" shouted the three rats.
Long Yuan's face flushed, and after putting on his clothes, he chased after the three rats and beat them violently.
Two days later, the master returned.
"Master, has something happened?" The three rats were relieved to see the master returning.
"It's nothing, when I went to explore the clues of the treasure book of mountains and seas, I passed by Chishui, and I was targeted by the drought. I used a trick to take a drop of his essence blood and provoke him. Later, I met an eagle owl king in the Qi Spirit Realm, and he sensed that I had eaten his kind, and chased and killed me for a few months. The master replied.
When the rat and the second rat heard this, their hair stood on end, which was terrible.
"After that, because of the activity of the demons, it took a lot of time, so I only came back now. The master continued.
Then the master asked the second rat to call Long Yuan back, and Long Yuan was soaking up the sun on the top of the mountain outside.
"Master. Long Yuan saluted the master.
"There's something going on in the rat clan, we're leaving here too, and our natural enemy, the eagle owl, has appeared near this cave, so I'm afraid we won't be able to stay. The master smiled kindly at Long Yuan and said.
Long Yuan didn't expect that as soon as the master came back, he would be separated from the master and the others, and his heart would inevitably be a little empty, and it would be a little difficult to leave for a while.
Here Long Yuan and the rat, the two rats and the three rats have a deep relationship, although the four rats do not have much intersection with Long Yuan, but they will greet politely when they see it. Because Long Yuan often went hunting and cooked for them, the three little rats had long lost their mustard to Long Yuan, and regarded Long Yuan as the same as two rats and three rats.
The three little rats are called Da Bing, Xiao Ke, and Xiao Ai. They looked at Long Yuan, and there was some sadness in their pure eyes.
Seeing that Long Yuan was a little lost, the master comforted: "The clear mountains are always there, and the clear water flows forever. We'll meet again. ”
Long Yuan nodded.
"Kid, can you go and help us find some more food, I've got something to do with the rats. ”
"Junior, let's go. Long Yuan answered, and then walked out of the cave.
In the cave, rats, rats, rats, three rats and a few small rats gather in the open space in the cave. The master faced the mountain wall with a solemn expression.
"The demons will have a big plan, and my body can't get out, and now it's a thought body that comes back to see you. The master paused, and continued, "The demons are in a big move, so you all have to go, stay away from this whirlpool." ”
"Master......" the rats shouted in unison.
"I'm not leaving! Sister Jin'er is still in the hands of the demons, I can't just leave. "Two rats said.
"If the second child doesn't leave, I won't leave. "Three rats.
"Don't make a fuss. The second rat scolded.
"Go aside!" the three rats rolled their eyes.
"Master......" The rat is about to speak.
Master Nanmu interrupted with a wave of his cane: "You are the hope of the Shuo Rat clan, stay away from this strife, the clan still needs your strength." ”
The rat was silent for a long time and then said, "Master, if the rat clan loses you, our clan will die." The Shuo Rat Clan has a spiritual intelligence that is not inferior to that of humans, and it also has a longevity that is unattainable by humans, and it is precisely because of this that our clan has become the best choice for cultivators to take over. The disciple's cultivation is shallow, and he cannot protect his clansmen. ”
After a moment of silence, the rat resolutely said, "Please allow the disciples to follow the master!"
The master was silent for a long time.
"Tomorrow, when Long Yuan leaves, we will return to the Demon Clan. The master said.
The three little rats looked at each other with uneasy expressions, they were equivalent to teenage children in the human race, and they were frightened by the words of the master and the rat.
"Shenzhou will be chaotic......" the master muttered.
When Long Yuan returned, it was already evening, and he decided not to bother the master and the others tomorrow. Long Yuan has been living here for a long time, and it is time to continue to find the Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas.
There is no feast in the world. Therefore, Long Yuan deliberately went to the cave to hunt a lot of prey hundreds of miles away, and he gained a lot.
In the evening, there was a burst of incense in the cave, and the pheasants and wild boars that Long Yuan would bring were filled with a burst of incense, and the fragrance spread.
Grunt.
The second and third rats who were meditating and cultivating screamed in their stomachs.
The two rats followed the scent and walked deeper into the fork.
"Second child, it's so fragrant. ”
"The third child, it's so fragrant. ”
"Wow!"
The two rats came to the end of the fork in the road, and the scenery in front of them stunned them, there were two half-zhang long roast wild boars on the empty stone platform, the whole piece of roast pig was golden, the smooth fat has been dripping, and there were at least a few hands of roast chicken and roast goose around the roast pig.
"Errat, are you dazzled? The three rats swallowed.
"The third child is dazzling to you. Saliva flowed out of the mouth of the second rat.
At this time, Long Yuan came out from the side with a gray face, covered with oil stains, very dirty and sloppy.
The second rat pointed to the table and said, "You got these?"
Long Yuan nodded and said, "Yes." I'm leaving tomorrow, your food here has been terrible, hehe. ”
The two rats and the three rats glanced at each other, then looked at Long Yuan together, and said in unison: "It's really too similar to his master." ”
"Huh, what's too similar?"
"When your master left, he also got a lot of food, and that guy directly washed the palace dining room. "Three rats.
Long Yuan felt speechless for a while, the master had actually ransacked the imperial dining room back then.
"You idiot, we won't be able to stay for a few days, how long will you eat when you get so much. The second rat scolded.
"I'll finish it tonight, and I'll keep it for something. You are all tall and big, you eat that little bit every day, where can you do it, and you have a good meal tonight. ”
I have to say that Long Yuan's words made the two rats extremely excited, they had not known what it was like to be full for too long, even if Long Yuan had improved their food during this time, they had not eaten enough.
The innate weakness of the rat clan is that once they are full of food and comfort for a period of time, they are very easy to starve to death when they are short of food. Therefore, for their rats, the abundance of food in front of them is like a hibiscus flower, a very tempting poison.
"I don't care, I'm going to eat a lot, the last time I ate so presumptuously was a hundred years ago. The three rats howled and pounced on the roast pig.
The second rat grabbed the tail of the third rat and scolded, "It's not promising! The master and the boss haven't come yet." Then he threw the three rats out with a drag in his hand.
"Go and call the master to eat. ”
The second rat approached Long Yuan and said with a smile: "Good brother, just rush this big meal, who will bully you outside in the future, let me know that I have to beat him and can't get up." ”
"Good!" Long Yuan said with a smile. Although he and the two rats and the three rats liked to play tricks on each other before, but now when it is time to separate, they all reveal their true feelings.
After a while, the three rats, the rats, and the masters came. The three little rats jumped up excitedly when they saw the feast on the stone platform, in the past, the two rats and the three rats went to the city to steal food, although there was also meat, but they only gave them a part of it to satisfy their hunger, and never let them eat more. Even if Long Yuan came later, the two rats didn't let them eat too much meat, and they had never seen this hot mountain of meat.
The master looked at Long Yuan and smiled with relief, after all, he was a disciple of Ling Jiutian, and he was also a lover.
The rat also sighed for a while, he and Ling Jiutian back then were like today's two rats and Long Yuan, they didn't know each other if they didn't fight. A hundred years have passed in a hurry.
The master smiled at the three little rats and said, "Eat." ”
"Whew~" The three little rats ran over and fell on a roast pig, like three little hungry wolves, ignoring the fact that the hair on their bodies was glued together.
The two rats and the three rats were not polite, and one of them hugged a wild boar leg.
For a while, the sound of laughter in the cave was endless.
"I said Long Yuan, are you in charge of your Longyin Villa, it's too fragrant. The three rats asked, with a chicken leg in their mouths.
"No, this is all taught to me by my senior brother, he is a little food god. Long Yuan said.
"Second child, that roast goose is my favorite. Seeing that the second rat reached out to grab a roast goose, the three rats no longer listened to Long Yuan's words and pounced directly on the three rats.
"Go aside!" the second rat raised his foot and kicked the third rat far away.
"Haha. Long Yuan couldn't help but laugh as he watched the two rats and the three rats compete for food.
"Master also ate and drank happily with them back then, and I also practiced here, when will I be as strong as Master? ”
In fact, Long Yuan didn't know how strong his master was, maybe his master was a towering mountain in his heart, he didn't know how high it was, he only knew that it was very high.
Long Yuan saw that the master was standing in place, just watching his disciples swallow as if they were gluttonous, so he walked over and asked, "Master, why don't you eat?"
"I've lived so long that I've lost my appetite for a tongue, and it's gratifying to see these children so happy. It would be nice if one day all the people in my clan could live in peace like this. The master's eyes narrowed slightly, like a kind old man.
Long Yuan felt sad when he heard this.
The master didn't sigh much, and said to Long Yuan: "Some time ago, I went back to the clan and consulted some classics. The "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas" you are looking for should be in the area of Queshan, and I don't know how much of the scope it is, but this treasure book needs to be destined to be obtained, and you may be a destined person. With that, the master turned and left.
"Magpie Mountain. Long Yuan muttered, "Finally, there is a clue." ”
After a while, there were large and small skeletons near the stone platform, and several big rats were lying on the ground too lazy to move, and their bellies were bulging. The three little rats were groaning, and the three rats shook their heads with their legs crossed and muttered: "Race immortals." ”
"You're all done?" Long Yuan exclaimed as he looked at the bones all over the ground, "I haven't eaten yet." ”
"Hiccup~ You've already eaten most of the wild boar and haven't eaten yet, the hungry ghost is reincarnated. The three rats glanced at Long Yuan.
"Forget it, just six or seven minutes full. Long Yuan touched his stomach and said.
Seeing these rats so happy, Long Yuan's heart also welled up with a burst of warmth.
The second and third rats couldn't walk at all, and slept directly next to the stone platform.
As the sound of pleasant chirping and hiccups faded away, the east outside the cave turned white.
In the afternoon, the master and his entourage sent Long Yuan away.
Outside the entrance of the cave, the master was also a little relieved to see that Long Yuan's cultivation had made some progress over the years, and said to Long Yuan: "Your master asked you to find the "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas", you had better go to Queshan and make a trip." It's a long way, kid, be careful. When I see your master, greet him on my behalf. We can't stop here either. I'm afraid we're going to part ways today. ”
Long Yuan bowed to the master and said, "Thank you master, the juniors will remember it." ”
The second rat put one hand on Long Yuan's shoulder: "Brother, I don't know when we will be able to see each other again, and I won't suppress Xiu Wei when we see each other again." The two eyes of the two rats narrowed again, and a sincere smile appeared that they had not seen for many years.
Long Yuan smiled, he knew that the second rat and the third rat had never shown their true strength because they wanted to protect their clansmen, just like the rat. Then he nodded and said, "When I find that classic book and heal Master's injury, I will come to you again, and I will definitely go and let Sister Jin'er return to you at that time." ”
The eyes of the second rat were a little more moved, Long Yuan really remembered his heart.
The rat stood beside the master and said to Long Yuan: "Your master was better than me back then, he went to Fusang, and I also went to Fusang. That guy was really crazy when he was young, he broke through the three major artifact families of Fusang alone, broke through the interception of the three major artifacts of the Heavenly Cong Cloud Sword, the Eight Mirror and the Eight Qiong Qu Jade, and finally was defeated by the design in the hands of the Jiuju faction, but he still won the treasure of Fusang's town. Since then, your master's reputation has spread in Fusang, which makes your master feel very gratified and fulfills your master and your mother. The three major families of Fusang are too uncompetitive, holding the three major artifacts, and the younger generation is so unbearable. "The rat told a legendary story about Master Long Yuan, and admitted that Ling Jiutian was stronger than him for the first time.
Long Yuan was shocked and envious when he heard this, these things had never been mentioned by the master.
Seeing that Long Yuan was thinking about it, the rat said, "You must not follow your master's example of going to Penglai." ”
"Why?" asked Long Yuan.
The rat glanced at Long Yuan, and said lightly: "If you go, you will definitely break your leg, it's too weak, as long as you dare to say who your master is, you won't be able to come back in Fusang." ”
Long Yuan was embarrassed for a while, he really didn't dare to go to that place now.
"Don't use any strength for three months, and don't use your true qi, let your body return to nature, I made you collapse too tightly before, if you don't recuperate, your potential will be easily exhausted. After that, you can walk ten miles and eight miles a day. After three months, put on the heavy armor again, and then you can carry the heavy weapon on your back. I don't have the martial arts of Zhigang Zhiyang here. The rat said.
"I'll keep it in mind, and I'll figure it out by myself if I learn martial arts. Long Yuan replied respectfully. For the rat, Long Yuan was extremely grateful, although the way he trained himself was extremely cruel, but because of this, his strength had a qualitative leap.
"Don't you want to call me Master? ”
Long Yuan listened to the rat's words, his face was a little embarrassed, and he made a solemn disciple salute to the rat.
"Humph!" the rat blew his beard.
Long Yuan laughed dryly.
"I said young man, when we meet again, sing a song to my grandfather***. The three rats laughed.
Long Yuan smiled helplessly, and he didn't care about these jokes when he was leaving.
After saying goodbye to the master and the rats, Long Yuan stepped forward.
The master looked at Long Yuan's distant back, and felt a feeling of nostalgia in his heart.
"Xiao Jiutian, if we see each other again one day, I hope you don't forget my agreement with you. ”
