Chapter 3: Inhuman
"Strange!"
Bai Xiaolou muttered secretly in his heart, raised his head and glanced in the cave, but did not find any danger. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis inexplicable sense of danger comes a little inexplicably.
As a person born out of phase, although Bai Xiaolou is different from ordinary people, in addition to his sensitive perception and ability to use the power of the void, his body is not strong, although it is stronger than ordinary people, but he can still be stabbed to death with a single knife.
After feeling this dangerous aura, Bai Xiaolou became more cautious.
Carefully advancing all the way, Bai Xiaolou soon reached the bottom of the cave.
The space at the bottom of the cave is very large, almost a hundred feet in circumference. On the left side of the cave is a ten-zhang square pool, and the faintly surging water waves are bottomless, and it seems to be connected with the mirror lake. In the clearing to the right of the cave are more than a dozen large wooden boxes. The box was about six feet long, two feet wide, and one and a half feet high, and the whole box was nailed tightly.
These boxes are Bai Xiaolou's target.
This cave was discovered by Bai Xiaolou by accident. The Void Sense discovered this cave space, and Bai Xiaolou was a little curious at that time, and planned to go in and have a look. Unexpectedly, I found that someone was secretly hiding something inside.
The person who hid the things was named Wang Xian, who was the steward of the Liu family's warehouse on the dock, and he secretly hid things in the cave, which was probably the stolen goods that he stole or greedy for ink in the warehouse. Bai Xiaolou now needs to use money to buy a water avoidance talisman, Wang Xian's ill-gotten gains, and the use of some emergency relief can be regarded as punishing evil and promoting good.
"There are so many? Only four or five boxes were found last time, and now there are so many? I'll talk about it first. ”
Bai Xiaolou walked to the box, intending to take a stone to smash open the box and take out the contents inside. Just as he was about to start, the water pool on the left side of the cave suddenly rolled in the waterhole, and the sound of the water surged, as if something was about to come out of the pool.
Bai Xiaolou was shocked, "Could it be that someone got in from the pool?"
Shocked in his heart, Bai Xiaolou immediately went to the back of the box and hid.
A moment later, the sound of water "roared", and then the fire was lit, and an oil lamp hung on the rock wall.
Two figures appeared in the cave.
"My lord, I have prepared the goods you wanted. ”
A stocky figure pointed to the box and said to another tall, thin figure.
"Well, that's good. ”
The tall and thin figure glanced at the box and nodded, "Wang Xian, you did a good job." ”
This person's voice sounded weird, and there seemed to be a faint "hiss" in the dry voice, as if the tongue was unconsciously expanding and retracting when speaking, which sounded weird.
Bai Xiaolou felt that this sound was a bit like a snake sticking out its tongue.
"......Snakes?"
Bai Xiaolou's face suddenly changed, and his heart was cold, "Damn, Wang Xian is actually making a deal with them?"
At this time, Bai Xiaolou already knew that this tall and thin figure was the reason for his sense of danger.
It's Inhuman.
The so-called alien is different from the person. They look like people and have some unusual features. For example, the head has two horns, the back has two wings, and so on.
Aliens are brutal in nature, and some ethnic groups even have the habit of feeding on people.
Inhumans dwell in the outer lands of Middle-earth. Where can the wilderness compare to the prosperity and wealth of Middle-earth, and the prosperity of Middle-earth coveted by aliens, and they harassed all year round, causing countless tragedies of slaughtering cities and destroying villages in Middle-earth countries. The list of murderers and crimes is too numerous to mention.
"Damn! Damn! Wang Xian, this bastard, actually colluded with strangers, it's really damn terrible. ”
Bai Xiaolou scolded angrily in his heart. No matter what reason Wang Xian had, colluding with the aliens, he would betray the entire human race, and he would die.
"My lord, I have prepared what you wanted. That ......"
Wang Xian glanced up at the tall and thin figure, "My lord, what you promised ......"
"Huh"
The tall and thin figure monster glanced at Wang Xian with a smile, "What I promised you will naturally be fulfilled." We have always had a good reputation. How can you not talk without words?"
"That's!
Wang Xian hurriedly echoed and nodded.
"Look, my lord, it's not too early, and I'm going back too. You see......"
Wang Xian said to the tall and thin figure with a smiling face.
"yes! It's not too early. ”
The tall and thin figure nodded, took out an oilcloth bag from his arms, and handed it to Wang Xian, "Here you go." This is the practice you want. We walk the talk, and we never compromise on what we promise you. ”
"That's!
Wang Xian opened the oilcloth bag, saw the animal skin book inside, and nodded happily, "Okay." Good. It's really a wrestler moving mountains. Good. You are indeed trustworthy. ”
Wang Xian said, and hurriedly rewrapped the book and hid it in his arms. Then he said hello to the tall and thin figure, "My lord, then I'll go first." ”
"Well, let's go, you can go on the road in peace!"
The voice of the tall and thin figure seemed to be a little strange, Wang Xian was shocked when he heard it, and faintly felt that something was wrong, so he quickly turned his head to look.
As soon as he turned around, he saw a tall and thin figure stretch out his hand and point, and a little green light flashed, turning into a fang-shaped shape out of thin air, and hitting Wang Xian's face on the head.
Wang Xian's face turned purple instantly, and then he stretched out his hand with difficulty and pointed at the tall and thin figure, his eyes were full of doubts, as if he was asking why the tall and thin figure wanted to kill him.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaolou sighed in his heart. Dealing with a monster like Inhuman who doesn't know what human nature is, you need at least nine lives.
Wang Xian is naturally damned. Bai Xiaolou would not have any sympathy for his death. But the method by which the tall and thin figure in front of him killed Wang Xian confirmed Bai Xiaolou's guess. The "hissing" sound of speaking before, coupled with the current "poisonous fangs", Bai Xiaolou had already determined the identity of this tall and thin figure.
It's a snake inhuman. Regardless of the strength of this alien, it is likely that the snake bloodline has been exposed to the sensitivity of temperature alone.
Thinking of this, Bai Xiaolou's face became even more ugly.
"Come out!"
Just when Bai Xiaolou was worried in his heart, the tall and thin figure suddenly turned his head to look at the location where Bai Xiaolou was hiding, and directly called out to break the hiding.
Bai Xiaolou's heart tightened, "I was really discovered, the weather is so cold, I am thinly dressed, and my body temperature should not be high, even if it is a snake alien, it is not so easy to find me, ......right?" He's cheating? He didn't actually notice me, but he said it on purpose out of security?"
Thinking of this, Bai Xiaolou was calm and motionless.
"Hey, hey, you're still out yet, you're still lucky, you think I'm cheating on you?"
The tall and thin figure turned around and faced Bai Xiaolou's location. The figure shrouded in the black cloak couldn't see his face at all, but his sneer and disdain could be heard in his tone.
"You stupid mortals, you have no idea of the power of our Ancient Bloodline. ”
With that, the tall, thin figure removed the cloak from his head, revealing his terrifying countenance.
When he saw this face, Bai Xiaolou knew that he was really exposed.
Although there is still a hint of human shape on the overall outline of this face. At least his eyes, nose, mouth, and all those things are there. But his eyes were amber snake eyes, his nose was a protruding two holes, and two inch-long fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth. The entire face was covered with blue-gray scales.
"Mortal, I am the great Ba Serpent Blood. You're a lonely person, and you've probably never heard of what a snake blood is, and I'm not interested in explaining to you what a snake blood is. If you just know, I'd already found you. In the eyes of our Ba Snake Blood, your body temperature is as obvious as a furnace. Do you think you can escape my eyes by hiding like a mouse?
The tall and thin figure sneered, and there seemed to be a hint of banter on its scaly face.
"Do you know why Wang Xian died? It's all because of you! Your appearance means that he has been exposed. Whether you came here unintentionally, or Wang Xian colluded with you, it means that this stronghold has been exposed. Therefore, if Wang Xian wants to die, you will also die. ”
"How bold it is for a stranger to dare to go deep into Middle-earth!"
Bai Xiaolou already knew that there was no point in hiding any longer, so he had to turn out from behind the box.
The so-called Ba snake bloodline in front of him is a snake alien with Ba snake blood.
The practice of Inhumans is different from that of Terrans. The cultivation of the human race is based on qi, manifesting the different phases in the heart lake and the sea of consciousness, and then attracting the spirit into the body and being reborn. The cultivation of the aliens is based on the bloodline, and their alien appearance in the heart lake is the source of their bloodline, and their rebirth is to constantly move themselves closer to the source of the bloodline. The human race practices qi, and the alien practices blood. That's the biggest difference between the two.
The alien of the Ba snake bloodline, Bai Xiaolou has only seen the relevant introduction from books, and has not really come into contact with it. Judging from the face covered with scales, the blood concentration of this Ba snake bloodline is not low, and its strength must be very strong.
The cultivation of the alien is to constantly move oneself closer to the source of the bloodline. Those alien monsters that originate from the bloodline are all physically strong and born with various supernatural powers. As a result, most of the Inhumans are physically strong and proficient in spells.
Although Bai Xiaolou was born out of phase, the void phase did not give him strong strength, at least his physique was not much stronger than that of ordinary people. Facing this snake alien head-on, Bai Xiaolou is definitely not an opponent. But...... Who says it has to be head-on?
"Hehe, the little mouse is finally reluctant?"
Ba Snake Yiren sneered playfully, stared at Bai Xiaolou, and began to comment, "A mortal without a different appearance, in fact, I don't have much interest. You don't have much to do other than take the blood from all over your body to see if you can refine the ancient bloodline. Hehe, who called you unlucky?"
"Sure enough, he can't see my void disappearance. ”
Bai Xiaolou secretly rejoiced in his heart, "Even Mingjian can't see the anomaly, and he naturally can't detect it." In this way......"
With an idea in his heart, Bai Xiaolou became calm.
"Well, excuse me. There's one question I can't help asking. ”
Bai Xiaolou leisurely straightened his clothes and glanced at Ba Snake Yiren with a smile.
"Hmm, what's the problem?"
"As a scaly and armored worm, why do you talk so much nonsense, are you proving to me that you can speak human words too?"
Bai Xiaolou looked disdainful.
