Among the five strange fish, the largest one is always more than three feet long, ranking in the middle of the scroll.

The other four are much smaller, no more than a foot or two long, and surround the larger the fish, and the smaller they are, the closer they are to the edge of the scroll.

Qi Jingzhi raised his eyes and saw that these strange fish were different in size, but their appearance was the same.

Each strange fish has a head like a dragon without horns and spines, and its body is covered with black and yellow scales, with skin and no flesh under the scales, and its four legs are like tiger claws. Chinese Net

Although a pointed tail also has scales on it, the end is not forked, neither like a dragon nor a fish, but more like a tiger's tail.

Four words are clearly written on the right side of the scroll: "Picture of a goby."

There is no seal or date at the end of the volume, only a rather strange name written on it: "Ji Jiu I."

The four characters at the front of the volume are simple and stable, and the knot is rigorous, revealing a strong and ancient meaning, and the three characters at the end of the volume are written with ups and downs, vigorous and vigorous, quite crazy.

The old servant of the Cui family got up from the ground, sat down with his back against the overturned painting pot, and did not forget to hold Zhu'er tightly in his arms.

He took a heavy breath, glanced at Qi Jingzhi who was standing quietly on the side, and then opened his mouth to bite his index finger and squeezed out a red bead of blood downward.

With a tick, the blood beads fell on the yellowed paper, and the strange thing was that it didn't blend with the paper, but instead stopped at the edge of the scroll after a few rolls.

Faintly, there seemed to be an invisible ripple waving across the scroll.

The next moment, the goby, the smallest and closest to the blood beads, flicked its tail like a living thing, and slammed its head upward, poking its nostrils out of the paper.

It sniffed the blood beads close to its nostrils, and became obviously a little restless before it could make a move, but was slammed to the side by another slightly larger one.

Immediately after that, the whole picture scroll was messed up, and the five gobys, which were obviously just drawn on the drawing paper, rolled and collided quickly, stirring up the sea water more and more turbulent.

After a fierce and short battle, the biggest, goby, took the best spot, triumphantly poked out of its nostrils, leaned over to the blood beads and sniffed them.

However, it only sniffed, then shook its head in disappointment, turned and dived back into the paper, and lazily swam back to the center of the scroll, and froze.

Next, the remaining four gobys went up and tried one after another according to the outcome of the battle, but after a few moments, three more were turned into dead creatures one after another, leaving only the shortest and most marginal one.

It swam around the bead of blood twice, and suddenly slammed its body out of the paper, and with great difficulty, it broke free of half of its mouth, and swallowed the bead of blood in one gulp.

Without rushing back to the paper, the goby leaned its mouth against the paper and waited for a few breaths, then suddenly opened its mouth again and spit out a black and yellow bubble.

I only heard a muffled pop, and the bubbles that floated in front of the old servant burst suddenly, dissipating a trace of black and yellow aura, which looked the same as those that enveloped Zhu'er's body at this time.

"You're a water species?"

The ghost boy, who had not spoken for a long time, exclaimed, and even a pair of eyes with Zhu'er widened, and suddenly said, "No wonder I obviously have the secret spell of the master, but I can't break free!"

The old servant of the Cui family didn't pay attention to it, but as soon as he stretched out his hand at random, he pulled this trace of evil qi over, and then slapped it on Zhu'er's body, and the dripping water was hidden in the sea, and the tigers with the same root and origin were no longer separated from each other.

Qi Jingzhi was secretly surprised, and his heart turned out to be the secret method of the Cui family to absorb the tiger in the mouth of the old servant before.

Such a meal is really extraordinary and mysterious.

Looking at the goby again, after swallowing blood and spitting out, it seemed that it was still not satisfied, still exposing its mouth and nose outside the paper, shaking its nose and inhaling constantly, and its mouth opened and closed one by one, without the slightest intention of going back to the painting.

The old servant of the Cui family looked at it for a long time, and suddenly reached over and put the bitten index finger to the goby's mouth.

The next moment, this strange fish like a dragon and tiger inhaled violently, and suddenly it was like crazy, and its mouth full of steel teeth suddenly opened and closed, biting hard

Stayed the index finger of Cui's old servant.

The red blood came out and flowed down its fingers into the goby's mouth, and it swallowed it without any left.

In this process, the old servant of the Cui family did not even frown, but slowly raised his index finger very carefully.

As a result, the goby, which was biting its fingers and refused to let go, was also pulled out little by little, leaving only the long slender tail still on the paper.

After a while, as more and more blood entered the belly of the fish, the greedy goby seemed to have finally eaten enough, and realized that it was about to be fished out of the paper, and immediately released its mouth without hesitation.

It fell straight back to the paper, swam merrily twice, and soon froze as well.

At the same time, a black-and-yellow scale detached from its body, leaving it alone outside the drawing paper.

The old servant of the Cui clan chuckled, looked at the bead in his arms with wide-eyed eyes and a greedy face, and then glanced at Qi Jingzhi, who was silent, and immediately picked up the scale and put it in his mouth, crunched and chewed it to pieces, and then swallowed it all.

Fish eat people, and people eat fish.

Suddenly, the breath around the old servant seemed to add fuel to the fire, and it suddenly became vigorous, and a new pure evil qi came out of the body.

The next moment, Huo Ran, the old servant of the Cui family, raised his head, stared at the young swordsman on the side and sneered, "Have you seen clearly?"

Qi Jingzhi frowned when he heard this, he really didn't know why the other party wanted to show Cui's secret to himself, an outsider, could it be really crazy?

Although it was through the mask of the red ghost, the old servant of the Cui clan seemed to be able to guess what the young man was thinking, and said with a smile: "A goby fish has both the mantis, the tiger and the sea in the water genus, and this branch of the Cui clan in Daqi is the tiger vein, which is not a secret in the Holy Jiang Sect."

"It's this seemingly mysterious "Tigerfish Picture", but it's actually not a great treasure, and the Cui family still has a lot of it in his hands. But if you want to exchange blood for evil qi like me, there must be two conditions!"

"One of them is the unique heart of the Cui family, the cantile bone has to be broken, the tiger bone has to be broken, and the fish bone has been broken by the sea!"

"Second, either it is the authentic bloodline of the Cui family, or it must have the permission of the Cui family to make it happen. Outsiders can't even achieve their hearts and bones without this permission, and they don't even think about exchanging evil spirits, even if they grab this picture in their hands, they can only enjoy it as an ordinary calligraphy and painting."

Hearing this, Qi Jing's heart was already clear.

He didn't covet Cui's secret method in the first place, not to mention that he had already achieved the heart of the angry crane, and Fan Xia chose the qi of pine and cypress armor for his cultivation, which obviously did not blend with Cui's unique water genus tiger, perhaps because of this, the other party would tell him bluntly without care.

At the beginning, Qi Jingzhi also heard Deng Fuqing say that without the permission of the Xuandu Viewer, no one in this world could achieve the backbone of the heart with the "Immortal Feather Sutra".

He only thought it was magical at the time, but he couldn't understand it afterwards.

At this time, when he heard that the Cui clan also had such a mysterious method, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but ask, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, how to do this so-called forbidden outsiders to cultivate their hearts, and how to achieve it when granting permission?"

Hearing this, the old servant of the Cui family immediately sneered, and said in a low voice: "The old man is just a lackey of the Cui family, do you think...... Will anyone tell me the true secrets of the family's survival?"
