Chapter 7: Occupy the Ancient Cave
The rabbit and the rat confronted each other, and the rat said, "It's not right that you don't make friends at will as I ask." You have asked someone to help you pick the fruit, which is even more contrary to my rules. ”
The rabbit snorted angrily, "When did you stipulate that we can't make friends?" And when was it forbidden to ask someone to help pick the fruit? ”
The rat didn't answer, just snorted a few times, but looked at the rabbit with a more vicious look in his eyes, as if he wanted to do it immediately.
When the rabbit saw the appearance of the rat, he was not afraid, and said loudly: "I came here before you, and I don't know which rule you will have after you come here." You still want to fool me. Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, when have I ever been afraid of you! ”
After the rabbit finished speaking, he raised his two front legs high, ready to meet the attack of the big rat.
Huang Ling saw the rat and the rabbit on the tree, although he knew that his combat power was not strong, but as the rabbit's brother, he didn't want the rabbit to fight the rat alone, so he rushed down from the tree, stood beside the rabbit, clenched his two fists, and stared at the rat.
Seeing that Huang Ling only had the cultivation of the second-level Great Perfection of the Divine Infant Realm, the corners of his mouth sneered, and said, "We are at war, you are a second-level cultivator of the Divine Infant Realm, and you still dare to participate in the war?" ”
Huang Ling said: "Brothers are of the same heart, and their benefits are golden. You just have to give it a try. ”
Hearing this, the rabbit glanced at Huang Ling, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Brother said it well!" Today, our brother will call you, the Rat Emperor Overlord, to give it a try. ”
Shuo Rat said: "I got rid of the Rat Emperor today, and it seems that I have to get rid of you too." As he spoke, he jumped to his feet and grabbed the rabbit with his two front paws fiercely.
When the rabbit saw that the rat was caught, he kicked its hind legs, and its two front legs struck the rat with its whole body like a tiger coming out of a mountain. Soon, the rabbit and the rat were fighting together.
They first stand upright on their hind legs, their front legs striking each other, and their bodies colliding with each other. Then they landed on all fours, hitting each other head-to-head and kicking each other's legs, bringing up dirt and dust all over the ground, and the sound was even more banging.
Huang Ling saw them colliding so fiercely, and felt that he couldn't intervene, so he circled around them twice, and suddenly found that there were a lot of stones on the ground, some big and some small, and some with sharp edges and corners, so Huang Ling picked up the largest stone and smashed it hard at the head of the big mouse.
The first stone was smashed, and the rat just shook his head and continued to ram at the rabbit. Huang Ling learned from the previous experience, chose a long stone with sharp edges and corners, looked at the head and eyes of the rat, and stabbed it with all his strength.
The sharp corner of the stone pierced the rat's large eye, causing the rat's head to tilt to one side and blood to shoot out of the eye. The rat was in pain, so he had to take a step back.
The rabbit took advantage of the rat's retreat, rushed forward, knocked the rat over, and pounced on the rat's soft belly and tore it hard, tearing off a large piece of meat from the rat's belly.
Huang Ling saw this opportunity, and smashed the stone in his hand on the lips of the rat, only to hear a click, and one of the sharp teeth of the rat broke in response.
The rat rolled on the ground, hurriedly rolled over, squeaked twice and then turned and fled. The rabbit and Huang Ling saw it and chased after them.
After chasing for more than a dozen breaths, the rabbit called Huang Ling to stop and said, "It's my border, there will be trouble going forward." ”
Huang Ling and the rabbit stopped at the border, watching the rat bleed all the way away. They didn't return until they couldn't see any trace of the rats.
Back at the place where Huang Ling and the rabbit picked the fruit, the rabbit said, "Brother, thanks to you today, otherwise I will be humiliated again." ”
Huang Ling said: "Brother can't say that. Today's incident was caused by me, and it was I who dragged the big brother down. ”
The rabbit said, "It's not your fault. This rat is very domineering, and he is coming for me. He often bullied others and found fault with them. ”
Huang Ling said: "He shouldn't come to find fault for no reason, right? ”
The rabbit glanced at Huang Ling and said, "He just came to find fault for no reason, he often found fault with others, either beating this or bullying that, and the creatures in this forest hate him." ”
Huang Ling asked, "Why is he doing this?" ”
The rabbit said: "Just because his cultivation is higher than others, he is the overlord of this forest. Ever since he called himself the hegemon, he has been like this. He does not allow others to come to this forest casually, and when they come, they must obey his rules, and if they do not obey his rules, they will be driven away by him. You should have heard him say that he had taken the Rat Emperor away today. ”
"Yes, before fighting us, he said he took the Rat Emperor today. Who is the Rat Emperor? Huang Ling asked with some curiosity.
The rabbit said: "The Rat Emperor is a rat that lives on the edge of this forest, and his cultivation speed is very fast, and he has cultivated to the third level of the Divine Infant Realm in less than two thousand years after ascending to the God Realm, and his combat effectiveness is very strong. ”
"Why did this rat chase people away?" Huang Ling continued to ask, wanting to know more about the situation.
The rabbit sat down beside the pile and said, "Brother, let's sit down and talk." Come, let's talk while eating the fruit. "Grab a few fruits and give them to Huang Ling.
Huang Ling took the fruit, sat down next to the rabbit, and listened to the rabbit's explanation while absorbing the energy of the fruit.
The rabbit said, "This rat was originally cultivating in the same place as the Rat Emperor, and it also flew up from one place. It has been more than 10,000 years since this rat ascended to the Divine Realm, and now it is a fourth-level Great Perfection cultivation in the Divine Infant Realm. But it has been less than two thousand years since the Rat Emperor ascended to the God Realm, and he has already reached the third level of the Divine Infant Realm. This rat was afraid that the Rat Emperor's cultivation would surpass him and defeat him, so he often went to drive the Rat Emperor away and prevented the Rat Emperor from cultivating in this forest. ”
Huang Ling asked, "Big brother, how many Rat Emperors are there in this forest?" ”
The rabbit said, "He's the only one." This guy is very domineering, not only often bullying Xiuwei who is lower than him, but also always looking for Xiuwei to approach him to suppress him, either driving away or killing and eating. Therefore, now he is the only one who dominates this forest, and everyone calls him the Rat Emperor. ”
Hearing this, Huang Ling remembered the situation of the two giant rats fighting and chasing on the way, and understood that the rat who fought with them just now was the giant rat that defeated the Rat Emperor, that is, the self-proclaimed Rat Emperor in this big forest.
Huang Ling said: "We defeated the Rat Emperor just now, will he gather others to take revenge on us?" Does he have any companions to help him? ”
The rabbit said, "Don't worry! He reigned as king and hegemon here, and everyone hated him, and far away from him, he had no companions and no one to help him. ”
Huang Ling was relieved when he heard this, and asked again, "Where does he live?" Far from here? ”
Rabbit said: "He lives in the ancient cave, about 6,000 meters away from here, and the past three territories are his place. ”
Huang Ling hurriedly asked, "Ancient Cave? What kind of place is that? ”
The rabbit said: "The ancient cave is very large, it should have a long history, there are murals in it, and there are some quiet rooms and cultivation venues. We used to live in ancient caves, and we only came out when we were gathering fruit. This big rat also lived in the cave with us when he first came here, but after more than 2,000 years, his cultivation surpassed everyone else, and he gradually drove us out of the ancient cave, leaving him alone to live in the cave. In fact, his cultivation improved rapidly in the first two thousand years, and basically did not improve much in the next eight thousand years. But he has always occupied the ancient cave, not allowing anyone to approach, even the three kilometers around the ancient cave are also designated as his exclusive territory, no one is allowed to approach, if anyone steps in, he will kill whom. ”
Huang Ling listened to the rabbit's explanation and knew that the ancient cave was indeed a holy place for cultivation, so he was even more eager to enter and occupy the ancient cave.
