Chapter 100: Following
"Childe, Xue Mang is willing to follow Childe to leave Xichuan and enter the world to practice!"
The Snow Giant Bear suddenly knelt on the ground and pleaded in a deep voice, startling Li Xuanji, who was about to leave.
"You...... What do you say?" he asked, stammering with a look of astonishment.
"Childe, I have been suppressed here for more than fifty years, and my former territory may have already been divided and occupied by countless spirit beasts and fierce birds. If I go back now, I won't be able to avoid countless disputes and killings. I don't want to see such a result! And as I said before, I have been practicing in the snow for 500 years, which has caused me to sit on a well and watch the sky. After I get out of trouble, I hope to enter the world and make up for my shortcomings. ”
After listening to the Snow Giant Bear's explanation, Li Xuanji asked strangely, "Then why are you following me?"
The Snow Giant Bear then explained: "Because spirit beasts and humans are not born to live in peace, whether spirit beasts enter the human world or humans enter the spirit animal world, they will be attacked by each other. If I want to enter the human world to practice, I will definitely be attacked by humans as a spirit animal, and if I want to resist, it will go against the original intention of my experience, but I don't have the ability to transform into a human being, and I can't enter the human world alone. So I need a human to be the guide. ”
"But I know that the human heart is sinister, and many of them are treacherous in the pursuit of fame and profit. Childe has a life-saving grace for me, and he doesn't want anything in return, so I can only trust Childe in this world. I hope that Childe can be the guide of my experience in the world, so that I can follow Childe's left and right, and serve Childe as a dog and horse. In this way, I can also repay Childe for saving my life!"
Li Xuanji completely understood.
What it said was not wrong, if a spirit beast ran into the human world alone, this spirit beast was bound to be attacked by a group of humans. Only by choosing a human master can this spirit beast stay in peace in the human world. And how easy is it to choose a master who is willing to follow? The human heart is the most sinister, and if you choose a master casually, you will not be betrayed by your own master and end up in a miserable end.
Li Xuanji looked up at the huge body of the snowfield giant bear like a small mountain, and was a little embarrassed: "I don't mind carrying a spirit beast with me, but ...... But you're so big that you can cause an uproar wherever you go, and you won't be recognized as a snowy bear, and you'll inevitably have a bloody battle and killing!"
The Snow Giant Bear looked down at his body and thick limbs, nodded and said, "Childe is right, my size is indeed not suitable for entering the human world, but don't worry, Childe, I have my own way!"
Li Xuanji couldn't think of any way to solve this. Just as he was thinking about it, the snowfield bear in front of him changed.
I saw that its huge body began to emit a gentle but bright light, making it impossible to see its figure clearly. After this huge light reached enough brightness, it actually began to shrink, and in Li Xuanji's stunned gaze, it shrank until it was more than zhang yu before it stopped. The light on him began to fade until it revealed its true form. At this time, the snowfield bear has become the size of a normal white bear!
"Childe, is this okay?" asked the Snow Giant Bear.
But it did not wait for the latter's answer, thinking that the latter was still not satisfied, and its entire body was once again enveloped in light, and continued to shrink until it was three feet in size. After the light faded, a bear appeared in the open space in front of Li Xuanji.
The bear is only an arm's length, the hair on his body is dusty, and his body is very chubby, and his original fierce appearance has long disappeared, but has become extremely simple and cute. To be precise, it looks more like a fattened puppy now.
"Childe, this should be okay, right? This is already the limit of my change!"
Li Xuanji finally came back to his senses from the shock, looked at the honest bear in front of him, and said incredulously: "It turned out to be the way of change! Have you already stepped into that realm?"
Little Bear shook his head and said, "No, I've just comprehended that realm, and I'm still far from breaking the realm." How easy is it to step into that realm? Even if I am given another 100 years, I will not have a 1 percent chance of breaking into that realm. Even my mother had been waiting for this threshold for more than 300 years. ”
Li Xuanji's face was much better, the shock in his heart faded, and he nodded and said: "I see, if you really step into that realm, you can go to the world! In fact, you don't have to change into the current appearance, the size just now is just right, and it will be much more convenient to rush with us." ”
The little bear nodded, and the light on his body lit up again, transforming into a big bear that was more than a foot long.
"Your name is Xue Mang?"
"Yes, it was the name my mother gave me when she became a human. Xue Mang replied. "Ice and snow are all of our Snow Giant Bear family, our lives, so we all take 'Snow' as our surname, and my mother said that 'Hidden in the snow, sharp but not exposed' is the way of life, so I named it 'Snow Mang'!"
Li Xuanji nodded and praised: "Good name! But, are you really willing to follow a weak human like me into the world to cultivate?"
Xue Mang nodded affirmatively and replied, "I am the Snow Giant Bear, and the decision I have made will never be changed. Childe, please rest assured, I, Xuemang, will definitely obey Childe's arrangement, and will never cause trouble for Childe. ”
Li Xuanji saw that it had made up his mind, so he no longer dissuaded it. There was also a faint joy in his own heart, if there was such a combat power around him in the future, many things would be done much more smoothly.
"Then you will follow me into the world in the future. Although I don't know what kind of experience will be beneficial to your practice, I will try my best to let you know more about the human world, and maybe find an opportunity for you to break through. ”
Xue Mang bowed his head gratefully and said, "Thank you, Childe!"
After saying that, it turned and left, walking towards the iceberg that had frozen before, walking back and forth on the mountain with its head down, not knowing what it was doing. When it finally came back from the iceberg, it came to Li Xuanji again, opened its mouth and spit out several huge yellow bumps, and threw them in front of him, shaking the ground!
Each of these bumps was a foot in size and extremely heavy, and when they fell to the ground, they smashed the hard ground into a pit of dirt. The pimple reflected an earthy yellow metallic luster, which was neither like red copper nor gold, and looked a little weird.
Li Xuanji's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Are these ......?"
"Earth Divine Gold!" Xue Mang replied, "These are the Earth Divine Gold that formed the Great Sealing Array, which was specially used by that old man to suppress me at the beginning. Now that the Great Array has been broken, these Earth Divine Gold have all lost their effect. It's useless for me to take it, so I'll give it all to Childe. I think that as long as I find a strong enough fire source, I will definitely be able to re-smelt these earth divine gold and forge them into a new divine weapon!"
Li Xuanji nodded, without hypocrisy.
He reached out and grabbed a piece of divine gold, and found that it weighed no less than thousands of catties. If these earth gods were to be refined into a weapon, their weight would inevitably exceed 10,000 catties! He simply took out the Qiankun bag directly, and included all these pieces of earth god gold in it, leaving it for later use.
Putting away the Shenjin and turning around, Li Xuanji smiled at Xue Mang: "Xue Mang, welcome to join us! Let me introduce myself first, my name is Li Xuanji, and I am a disciple of Qingzhu Sect." ”
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the white tiger and Jin Ling respectively, and said, "This is the white tiger inside the door, and its name is Big Cat. The girl next to me is called Jin Ling, and she is my partner. This time, I am going to go to the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains to solve some things, which is also my experience in entering the WTO. ”
It was confirmed that Xue Mang's accession had been confirmed, and the white tiger did not look at each other angrily, but stood quietly aside, recovering from the injuries on his body. It's just that when Li Xuanji introduced its name, he roared dissatisfiedly. Jin Ling no longer had the previous fear, but habitually looked at the new partner, his eyes full of curiosity.
Xue Mang bowed his head to the white tiger and said, "Friend, I apologize for the harm I caused to you before. I hope to be able to get your forgiveness. ”
The white tiger didn't make a sound, and flicked his tail to acquiesce to the other party's apology.
Xue Mang turned her head and greeted Jin Ling, "Hello, little girl......!
But before it could finish speaking, it suddenly discovered something, and was shocked to retreat dozens of steps, almost falling to the ground.
"You...... You're not human?!"
Jin Ling touched the top of his head, then his buttocks, and asked strangely, "Ahh
Xue Mang was speechless in shock, her eyes full of fear and awe.
Li Xuanji hurriedly waved his hand and explained to it: "Jin Ling is indeed not a human being, she used to be a little fox. However, she is not what you think, relying on strong cultivation to form a human being, nor did she eat the Transformation Divine Pill, her transformation was an accident. ”
Li Xuanji briefly explained the process of Xue Mang's transformation of Jin Ling, and Xue Mang finally put away the shock in his heart, and his eyes looking at Jin Ling were full of endless envy, and at the same time, his heart was also full of some expectations for the future.
After the four of them fully understood each other, Li Xuanji was ready to set off.
However, when he examined the white tiger's injuries, he found that its limbs were no longer able to be used as a means of transportation. After Li Xuanji applied medicine to it to treat its injuries, he finally decided to send it back to the division in advance. After the white tiger left, Xue Mang took the initiative to act as the mount of Li Xuanji and Jin Ling.
At the beginning, Jin Ling was very opposed to riding on Xue Mang's body, because after it had been sealed for fifty years, its body was covered with dust, and its fur was dirty and greasy, and even Li Xuanji frowned when he saw it. However, after Xue Mang ran into the distance and washed his whole body with a blizzard, Xue Mang who came back again was already a white and flawless white bear. Riding on it again, Li Xuanji and Jin Ling were both conquered by its soft and comfortable snow-white long hair!
All the way straight along the east, it doesn't take a day or two to get out of Xichuan.
At this leisure time, Li Xuanji had time to take out the small burden in the Qiankun bag and take a look. This baggage is said to contain the relics of his parents.
When he solemnly opened the baggage, he was stunned to find that there were only two simple things inside.
A book and an iron card!
