Chapter 35: The Bronze Hammer

The copper hammer used his proboscis to suck up a handful of loess and sprinkle it on his body, and the dust raised choked him several times, so he missed the days when he bathed with water! But he also knew that it was just an unrealistic dream, and now that he didn't even have drinking water, let alone the extravagant idea of bathing. Now the elephant herd has to walk dozens of miles every day to find water, and if you are lucky, you can find a little bit, but it is as thick as mud and you can't drink it at all, but this is already a big surprise, but unfortunately even such days are not every day, and drinking water once every two or three days has become a common thing.

"Alas! This painful time will have to go on until the rainy season arrives. The copper hammer sighed, full of helplessness.

Suddenly, two hyenas came out from the front, talking and laughing happily.

"Let's go and drink water in Taoyuan Country."

"What's the hurry? There is plenty of water there, let alone drinking, and you can take a bath if you want. ”

"Then you just walk slowly behind! I'm not waiting for you. One of the hyenas quickly ran away, and the one behind quickly followed, shouting at the top of his voice as he ran: "Wait for me!" ”

"Taoyuan Country? When did you come out of a paradise country? "Copper Hammer is puzzled, I haven't been out for a few days, why is there so much news on the grassland? First the hyena steel tooth died, then the lion god of war hung up, and the black cloud also braided. Hum! These are all small characters, and they dare to call themselves the "Five Tyrants of the Prairie", I just don't like those false names, if I want to go out, how can I have their share? The most ridiculous thing is that big mountain, who claims to be the number one warrior in the herbivorous world, I bah! As far as his little arms and legs are concerned, they are not qualified to lift my shoes.

The copper hammer does have proud capital, more than three meters high, more than six meters long, weighs more than 10,000 catties, stands up with two sharp teeth, and has a flexible and powerful nose, which is simply an invincible existence.

"Let's go to that Taoyuan country first!" The brass hammer quietly followed the hyena. "These guys used to run faster than rabbits, but today they seem to be deliberately leading the way for me?" He was very strange.

The journey is not far, and after walking about ten miles, there is a valley in front of it, and the slopes on both sides are covered with green grass, wildflowers, and hundreds of leafy baobab trees. In the withered yellow grassland, this only green is particularly eye-catching and precious.

"Others are close to the water and get the moon first, but I don't know the blessing in the blessing!" The copper hammer slapped himself in the mouth, and he was as tired as a dog when he ran around on the grassland every day, but he only ate some grass roots and tree bark, and there was such a good place under his nose, why hadn't he found it before? Thankfully, the hyenas inadvertently slipped their mouths, otherwise they would have been kept in the dark. At this moment, he suddenly felt that hyenas were actually quite cute, and they were not as annoying as rumored by the outside world.

The copper hammer ate a large handful of grass, then chewed a few young leaves, and couldn't help but praise: "It's still delicious." He continued to walk, surrounded by a dozen large trees, a pool appeared in front of him, and the breeze blew the water to ripple in circles, exuding a tempting sweetness, and this temptation Copper Hammer could not refuse, and ran over in three steps and two steps.

"Stop, what do you want to do?" Someone above him was shouting loudly.

At this time, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu couldn't stop me, the copper hammer ignored it, and couldn't wait to suck a tube of water through his nose and send it to his mouth, it was so sweet! He was so excited that he almost cried, and quickly opened his mouth and drank several more sips before he burped and lay down against the pool.

"How unreasonable is that you should dare to ignore my warnings." Bolt of lightning was furious, and a swoop descended from the sky, its sharp claws grabbing at the elephant's back.

The copper hammer doesn't care, his skin is thick and thick, so he should tickle it!

"It's fucking thick." Lightning grabbed and shook off a large lump of mud and sand.

The copper hammer smiled, he took a mud bath every day, and a thick layer of soil had already been stuck to his body, which could not only prevent mosquito bites, but also protect the body from injury.

"I don't believe in this evil." Lightning shifted the target and grabbed him in the face.

"Hitting people doesn't slap people in the face, this little guy is so presumptuous, then you can't blame me." The brass hammer burst into flames, sucking a tube of water and shooting at the lightning, fast and accurate, like a cannonball.

The lightning flipped a few times in the air, and fell to the ground with a "snap" and couldn't get up.

"Now you know how powerful I am!" The copper hammer smiled, children should be spanked if they are disobedient, and they must not get used to it.

"Don't you feel ashamed that such a strong elephant actually bullied a bird?" At some point, a bison came up from behind, with a faint smile on his face and a sarcastic expression.

Copper Hammer's face turned red, and he himself felt a little embarrassed, and said curtly: "He did it first, I just defended myself." ”

Tie Ta said coldly: "He is in charge of guarding this pool, and if you come to drink water without his consent, of course he has a reason to stop you." ”

"What? Do I need his permission to drink water? Does this water belong to his family? What right does he have to stop me? The Hammer laughed and said arrogantly, "I don't need to ask anyone for permission to drink water wherever I want, not even the lion." ”

"You're really right, not only this pool, but also these baobab trees, and even those flowers and plants belong to his family." "It used to be a wasteland where birds didn't, but we found the water source with great difficulty, and the pool was built by a few of us all day, and it took all of us to make it what it is now. I also know that everyone is short of food and water these days, and I don't mind letting you drink it, but you can't be so savage. ”

The copper hammer was dumbfounded by these righteous words, as the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is soft, and the hands of people are short, anyway, today is full of food and drink, so what does it matter if he is quick to speak for a while? I don't have anything to lose.

Hum! Don't let me drink water? Don't even think about it! Tomorrow not only will I come, but I will also bring my herd with me to see what you can do to me. The brass hammer snorted coldly and left in a huff.

Tie Ta looked at this self-righteous big guy and couldn't help laughing, there are always some people in this world, relying on a little strength to think that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, don't look at anyone in his eyes, don't worry about him today, if he has to make an inch, think I'm honest and easy to bully, then I'm sorry.

"Brother, are you alright?" The tower picked up the lightning bolt and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, just a little dizzy." Lightning looked aggrieved, "Big brother, why didn't you stop him just now?" ”

"He's really thirsty, what does it matter if you drink some water, forget it this time!"

"What if he comes back tomorrow?"

"If he comes back tomorrow, he will only be allowed to drink once according to our rules."

"What if he doesn't play by our rules?" Lightning does not relent.

"You little devil just talk a lot, when have you ever seen me scared by others?" The tower smiled, he hadn't moved his muscles for a while, and this elephant was a good opponent.

In the evening, the stormtroopers came back, ran vigorously to the iron tower and said excitedly, "Big brother, today we met three cheetahs and more than a dozen wild dogs on the road, and the stormtroopers drove them away as soon as they went up. ”

The young men are all elated, and they haven't been so proud for a long time, which is the demeanor of the first country on the grassland.

"As long as we are united, no enemy can defeat us, and the words of the Iron Tower are true." Teacher Bai stroked his long beard and smiled.

……

"Today, Tong Hammer went to Taoyuan Country to drink water, but the iron tower stopped him, and the two broke up after a quarrel." The scythe reports to the flames of war what he has detected.

Chasing Feng looked frustrated, "Isn't our plan working?" ”

Zhan Huo smiled, "Don't worry, I understand the temper of the copper hammer, they will do a big job sooner or later, let's wait patiently!" ”

Copper Hammer hummed a little song back to the elephant herd, looking at the hungry, thirsty and exhausted family, and his heart couldn't help but feel sour.

"King, Xiao Cong is dead,...... a female elephant said sadly.

"What?" The copper hammer almost fell to the ground with a shake, and the tears suddenly flowed down uncontrollably, Xiao Cong is his favorite son, but it's a pity......

"What now? If this continues, these cubs will not survive this year's dry season. ”

Copper Hammer endured his grief and comforted softly: "Don't worry, today I found a good place with water and grass to bathe, and tomorrow I will take you all to enjoy it."

"You're not lying to me, are you?" The female elephant was incredulous.

"I'll admit I did lie to you before, but not this time."

As soon as the sky was slightly bright, the copper hammer led the elephant herd to set off towards Taoyuan Country.

Lightning saw them from a long distance, and immediately flew to inform the tower, "Big brother, that elephant came again yesterday, and brought a herd of elephants. ”

Looking down the mountain, there were more than a dozen elephants this time, and three of the baby elephants were very weak, stumbling when they walked, and it was estimated that they had not drunk water for a long time. At this moment, he was really embarrassed, the water in the pool was not enough for his own people to drink, how could there be more for them? But if you don't give it, the three little elephants will definitely die, and the master often says that saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and I really can't bear to watch them die like this. Alas! Let's drink less and save it for them! After a fierce ideological struggle, the tower finally made a decision.

The brass hammer led the herd to the edge of the pool, and the elephants scrambled to pounce on them and drank, and the three baby elephants were particularly happy, because they were so eager that they choked and coughed.

Lightning looked at them angrily, wondering to himself, "Do you want to go to Dali and ask him to bring the stormtroopers back to help?" But the eldest brother didn't speak! Alas, it's better to wait. ”

The elephants were finally full, and the water in the pool was half less.

"You can come here if you want to drink water in the future." Tie Ta smiled, "But according to the rules of Taoyuan Country, each person can only drink once a day." ”

The copper hammer looked at the sky and said coldly: "Don't tell me any rules, from now on this pool belongs to us." ”

"Oh? Why? The tower thought it was a little funny.

"That's it." The copper hammer turned and slammed into a baobab tree, accompanied by a "crackling" sound, and the bucket-thick tree was actually knocked down by him, and the lightning on the tree was so frightened that it flew out.

"Whoever has the most strength has the right to decide." Brass Hammer said proudly.

"You're trying to forcibly occupy it, don't you mean that?" Iron Tower's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and those who knew him well knew that he was angry now.

"If it's a man, come out and compete, don't hide behind your mother-in-law." Copper Hammer became impatient, "It's been a long time since I've been fighting, I hope you don't let me down." ”

"Well, I hope you don't regret your stupidity." Tie Ta shook his head helplessly, people are like this, they won't die if they don't suffer a big loss.

Like a moving city wall, the copper hammer slammed into the tower like a sea of mountains. The tower flashed lightly to the side, and the opponent's thunder blow was pounced. The copper hammer couldn't help but rush forward, just hitting the cliff in front of it, and a huge boulder the size of a table top shook and collapsed.

The copper hammer shook the stone chips off his body casually, turned around and crushed towards the iron tower again.

"Good time!" The tower stopped dodging and rushed over at high speed with a loud shout.

Copper Hammer smiled disdainfully, feeling sad for the recklessness and ignorance of his opponent, you and I are not at the same level at all, how can you fight with me? There seemed to be such a picture in front of his eyes, although it was a little bloody, but it was very ornamental: the tower screamed and flew out like a kite, lying on the ground motionless, and the ground beneath him was red with blood, like an incomparably gorgeous flower......

It's a pity that there are some discrepancies between reality and fantasy, the plot did not develop according to the design of the copper hammer, only to hear a loud "bang", a bull and an elephant slammed together, leaving four deep footprints on the ground, the copper hammer was knocked back two or three feet, if it wasn't for his efforts to stabilize his body, it is likely to retreat further.

All the elephants were taken aback, how could it be that the Bronze Hammer King was forced back by this calf?

Lightning stared intently at the battle on the field, his palms were full of sweat, he was ready, if those elephants dared to bully more and less, then he would not stand idly by, even if he couldn't fight, he would fight with them.

Although the iron tower suffered a physical loss, his momentum did not fall in the slightest, and he did not show weakness under the shoulder of the copper hammer, and the blood continued to flow down his forehead.

"Someone is injured, whose blood is this?" The audience has a big question in their hearts.

The answer was immediately revealed, and the tower moved forward step by step, while the copper hammer kept retreating. Suddenly, the iron tower shook its head, and the copper hammer fell to the ground with a "bang", and there was a big hole in the shoulder, and the blood flowed like an infusion.

The lightning flew to the shoulder of the tower with a cheer and said adoringly: "Big brother, you are amazing! ”

The tower smiled slightly, if he told Lightning that he had only used five successes, would it freak him out?

The copper hammer struggled on the ground a few times, but was unable to get up. The elephant herd hurried over to help, and the three elephants lifted hard behind him, and the elephant in front of him hooked his nose and pulled hard, and the copper hammer stood up with difficulty.

"You won, we'll never come to drink water again." The bronze hammer was like dead ashes, and it limped out of the valley.

"Stop!" The tower stepped forward to block his path.

"Are you still going to kill them all?" The copper hammer was expressionless, but he was crying in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that my copper hammer would also be slaughtered one day.

"You just said that you won't come to drink water in the future, so how can the three baby elephants survive this dry season?"

Copper Hammer was pleasantly surprised, "Will you let us drink water?" ”

"I never said that I wouldn't let you drink water, I just said that I wanted you to follow the rules of our Taoyuan country." Eiffel Tower said seriously, "You don't mind letting me see your injuries, do you?" ”

Copper Hammer looked at the tower puzzled, he really didn't understand what this opponent's idea was, he was obviously his defeated subordinate, but not only did he not humiliate himself, but instead gave himself water to drink and heal himself, what did he want to do? After a long silence, the copper hammer finally asked, "Why are you doing this?" ”

"There's no why, I just feel like I'm in love with you." Tie Ta smiled, "I'm a piece of iron, you're a piece of copper, and we're all tough guys." ”

The copper hammer held the iron tower's hand tightly, "Yes! Both of us are tough guys who can't be beaten. ”

Tie Ta came to his own medicine garden, although the place is not big, but the variety is quite complete, these medicinal materials are transplanted from the grassland, vigorously so reckless, often get wounded outside, a variety of herbs in case of emergency, I didn't think that he didn't use it but let the copper hammer pick up a big bargain.

The wound was bandaged, and the copper hammer said gratefully: "Iron Tower, thank you!" In the future, the affairs of Taoyuan Country will be my business, and if you have a place for me, just open your mouth. ”

"Since you've made a statement, then I'm welcome." Tie Ta said solemnly, "Just now you knocked down a tree in Taoyuan Country, and of course you will be punished for destroying public property, so you must compensate us for ten trees." ”

"How can you do that? Actually made me pay for ten trees? Brass Hammer was angry, "This is obviously not enough!" I've decided to pay you twenty. ”

The two warriors looked at each other and laughed in unison.
