Chapter 107: The Battle of Man and Cat
For Xu Qiuhan's sudden desire to buy the mouse, not only was the mouse furious, but Ling Zheng was also extremely unhappy when he heard this.
He didn't speak, but motioned for the mouse to be quiet, his clear eyes and Xu Qiuhan's somewhat eager gaze, and waited for the next step.
Xu Qiuhan seemed to notice that his actions were a little abrupt, and after coming back to his senses, his face was a little more apologetic: "I'm sorry, I was too excited just now." ā
Ling Zheng shook his head, but didn't speak.
Xu Bule on the side saw Ling Zheng's displeasure, and did not because the three of them were masters of the Jindan Realm, and he underestimated Ling Zheng who only had a foundation building realm, so he quickly explained: "Brother, don't get me wrong, the reason why she is like this is because this ghoul rat beside you is the hope that summons Qingcang from the ghost realm." ā
Xu Qiuhan nodded, his eyes filled with pleading.
Although Ling Zheng is young, he is not the kind of person who has soft legs and soft brains when he sees a beautiful woman, although he will panic if he is too close to a woman, but at this moment, he looked at Xu Qiuhan's charming and pretty face with poignant beauty, full of apologies and pleading, and there was no wave in his heart.
He was just silent, wanting Xu Qiuhan to give him an explanation.
Xu Qiuhan was silent for a while before he said softly: "I'm really sorry, I actually said something like that just now." This ghoul rat should have a strong dependence on you, and it would be an insult to it and to you if you wanted to buy it. ā
"It's not a secret, Qing Cang entered the ghost domain alone back then to find something. Xu Qiuhan looked at Ling Zheng's face that was extremely similar to Ying Qingcang, and said, "But after he disappeared and turned into a Yin soldier, I realized that the thing he was looking for was not in that ghost domain at all." ā
"Not long ago, an ancient ruin appeared in the Northern Regions, and no one knows what the specific situation of the ruins is. But judging from the piece of jade I stumbled upon in the Heavenly Demon Mountain, there is a good chance that the thing Qing Cang was looking for was in that ruins. ā
The displeasure in Ling Zheng's heart decreased slightly, but he was a little curious: "Since you are entering that ruin, what does this have to do with rats?"
Xu Bule took over the conversation: "Brother doesn't know, the ruins appeared, but there are extremely powerful formation prohibitions on the periphery, from the appearance of the ruins to the present, at least thousands of array mages have to go to break the formation, but they are all ineffective." ā
"After that, some cultivators dug up an intact stone statue on the periphery of the ruins, and the stone statue had a formation spirit pattern of the same origin as the formation prohibition, and some old array mages began to speculate that what the stone statue represented might be the key to entering the ruins. ā
Ling Zheng understood, touched the mouse's little head again, and said, "This means that the stone statue is carved with a ghoul rat?"
Zhang Tong, Xu Qiuhan, and Xu Bule all nodded.
"It's a pity that if I hadn't had a mouse before, I wouldn't have been able to get out of the ghost domain alive. Ling Zheng no longer lied, but told the truth: "This little guy's background is very miserable, the reason why I took it out of the ghost domain is because I want to take good care of it, as for selling it, forget it." ā
Although Ling Zheng's tone was flat, the three people present heard the resoluteness of his words, and they suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Zhang Tong patted Ling Zheng's shoulder and explained, "Brother, you misunderstood, my junior sister was too anxious to speak just now. In fact, according to the research of those array mages, if you want to enter the ruins, you only need a drop of ghoul rat blood essence, so my three siblings want to ask my brother for a drop of ghoul rat blood essence, as for buying this ghoul rat, it is a sudden move, and please don't worry about it. ā
When Ling Zheng heard this, his face became slightly better-looking, but he smiled and continued to pat the mouse's head: "This is not up to me, you have to ask the mouse, if the mouse agrees, it will be useless for me to stop it." ā
Ling Zheng knew very well how strong the mouse's body was, if it was just a drop of blood essence, it would not cause any damage to the mouse.
The rat naturally understood Zhang Tong's words, and the slightly reddened mouse eyes quickly returned to normal, and he stood up, holding a front paw on his back, first pointing at Zhang Tong, and then pointing at Xu Bule, rolling on the ground, pointing into the distance. Then, the mouse stood up again and pointed at Xu Qiuhan, and the rat head nodded a few times.
Xu Qiuhan and the three of them looked at each other, not knowing what a mouse meant. Ling Zheng understood it, and said to Zhang Tong and Xu Bule: "Two, rat, let's let the two of you avoid it first." ā
In fact, what is evasion, the meaning of the mouse is clearly to let these two people stay away.
As soon as there was a little more smile on Ling Zheng's face, he saw that the mouse was also pointing at him, and he also rolled and pointed into the distance. That means to keep yourself away.
See the oblivious bastard!
Ling Zheng's face darkened suddenly, and then his eyes slashed at the mouse, and he walked into the distance with Zhang Tong and Xu Bule.
Seeing the three of them leaving, the mouse stretched out his front paw and pointed to his abdomen, and then squeaked at Xu Qiuhan a few times.
Xu Qiuhan was a little puzzled, and asked softly, "Why do you want them to avoid it?"
The mouse pointed at Xu Qiuhan, then at himself, called a few times, and then nodded again.
Xu Qiuhan was stunned, and then smiled and patted the mouse's little head: "Does he know?"
The rat screamed a few times.
On the other hand, Ling Zheng and Zhang Tong, Xu Bule were carrying a wine jar and sitting in the distance chatting, of course, the most involved was the ancient ruins that the three of them were about to go.
Anything that goes with the word "ancient" is not a simple thing. Although Ling Zheng only cultivated to build a foundation realm, he was still very interested in the matter of ancient ruins. After chatting for a while, Zhang Tong and Xu Bule saw what Ling Zheng meant, and simply invited Ling Zheng to explore the ancient ruins together.
Although Ling Zheng's cultivation is low, he is a real formation mage, and if he has a formation mage by his side, no matter what he does, he can increase his grasp a little.
Moreover, Ling Zheng still has no attribute spirit veins, and his body has many unknown characteristics, which may be able to save their lives in a critical moment.
But Ling Zheng was very self-aware, shook his head and smiled: "Forget it, my little cultivation, if I run into an enemy, not only will it not be enough for the other party to stuff his teeth, but it will also cause a drag on you, which is really not worth it." ā
"Besides, I'm going to go to Qixiao Mountain next to find my two friends, they don't even know if I'm dead or alive now, maybe one of them is already burning paper for me. ā
Ling Zheng mentioned Kong Xuan and Dou Bi, and the smile on his face was very warm. Those two were the first two people he met when he came to the Northern Regions, and it was a blessing that they could still have the same interests.
Dou Bi should have arrived at Qixiao Mountain now, how many female monks can he fool in Qixiao Mountain, who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?
Zhang Tong and Xu were not happy to see Ling Zheng refuse, but they did not insist anymore.
After that, the three of them returned to the previous woods, Ling Zheng and Xu Qiuhan, Zhang Tong, and Xu Bule said goodbye briefly, and then let the mouse turn into a cat again, jumped on his shoulder, and after asking the direction of Qixiao Mountain, he slowly left.
After Ling Zheng left, Xu Qiuhan carefully put away a jade bottle in his hand, and then didn't wait for Zhang Tong and Xu Bule to speak, he directly rose into the air, and his figure swept into the distance.
Zhang Tong and Xu Bule glanced at each other, and they both let out a wry smile, and after the latter extinguished the fire with one palm, he also rose in the sky and chased after Xu Qiuhan.
After flying in the sky for a while, Ling Zheng saw that there was a little more tiredness in the mouse's eyes, and quickly stopped and asked, "Hey, mouse, isn't it, just took out a drop of blood essence, and you are so virtuous?"
Seeing that the rat didn't react, Ling Zheng reached out and patted its head, and said, "By the way, I haven't settled accounts with you kid yet, why did you let me get out just now? Our friendship is so iron, do you kid want to take it for himself when he sees a beautiful woman? Why are you like Dou Bi, and forget your righteousness?"
The rat that turned into a flower cat suddenly exploded, jumped directly on Ling Zheng's head, and spread all four paws, scratching for a while.
Although Ling Zheng has an attributeless spirit vein physique and a hard physical body, his body is a rat of the ancient xenomorphic ghoul rat, and he is not a vegetarian in the first place, and it cannot be measured by the common sense of the cultivation realm at all. Its four claws were even sharper than Ling Zheng's Xuanwen pen.
Ling Zheng was caught off guard, and his hair was scratched by the rat, and there were several blood marks on his face.
"Didn't Lao Tzu just say that you forgot your righteousness, what's wrong, you didn't let Lao Tzu say it when it was done?"
Ling Zheng scolded and arranged his hair, and seeing that the mouse sitting in front of him had a tendency to fry his hair again, he hurriedly took out a piece of sauced beef from his storage ring and handed it to it.
Seeing the rat of the sauced beef, his attitude was obviously softened, he stretched out a cat's paw and pointed at Ling Zheng, drew a small circle, and then pointed to himself, and then drew a big circle with his paw.
"You mean, in the future, you will be the boss and I will be the junior?" Ling Zheng thought for a long time before asking.
The mouse nodded, and a sharp claw blade popped out of the cat's paw, dangling in front of Ling Zheng's eyes, like a threat.
"Stinky boy, Lao Tzu has given you face!" Ling Zheng directly reached out and knocked the sauce beef in the mouse's arms away, and then clamped the mouse's neck and pressed it to the ground.
But the strength of the rat was not much smaller than Ling Zheng's, and after a struggle, he almost threw Ling Zheng away.
Then, a man and a cat began to fight in the woods.
"You're a dead mouse, do you want to accept it?!"
"Meow!"
"I'm cĒo, you scratch Lao Tzu's face again?!"
"Meow!"
"This is the eighth and last time to warn you, you scratch Lao Tzu's face again...... Oh I cĒo!"
"Meow!"
......
Half an hour later, the battle between one man and one cat finally ended, and the mouse grabbed Ling Zheng into a big flower face, his hair was scattered, and his clothes were in tatters. And the hair on the mouse's body was also pulled off a lot by Ling Zheng, and the ears of the two cats were completely torn off.
But Ling Zheng and the rat have one thing in common. One is a non-attribute spirit vein physique that has not appeared a few times in the past and present, and the other is an ancient xenomorph demon beast, and the strength and recovery ability of the physical body are not comparable to those of ordinary beings.
A man and a cat stared wide-eyed, and half an hour later, the silent battle ended with a loud cry from the mouse's belly.
"Forget it, don't make a fuss. Ling Zheng reached out and grabbed the rat's cat tail and put it on his shoulder: "It's time to go to Qixiao Mountain to have a look, I don't know if Kong Xuan and Dou Bi have arrived." ā
Since the mouse met Xu Qiuhan, his attitude towards Ling Zheng has become very strange, and when he saw Ling Zheng talking to himself, he didn't even bother to make a cat meow.
In this way, one person and one cat hurried to the direction of Qixiao Mountain.
