Chapter 17: Not My Brother
The soul ring on the master's body flickered, and with Tang San and Tang Jiulu, he followed behind Luo Sanpao and walked towards the interior of the forest.
"It can only attack three times, and its cry is lo-ro, so I'll call it Luo San Cannon."
The Master explained as he led them forward.
"Luo Sanpao's sense of smell is very sensitive, and he can detect the traces and strength of soul beasts."
"Although it has become weak due to mutation, it is relatively small in terms of soul power consumption, and it can stay outside for a long time."
As he spoke, the master took out a short sword from his bosom and handed it to Tang San.
"This is for you, if you kill the soul beast, the final blow must be completed by yourself, otherwise you won't be able to absorb the soul ring."
Tang San took the dagger, nodded, and held it in his right hand, holding Tang Jiulu tightly with his left hand, carefully following behind the master.
After walking a short distance, Luo Sanpao suddenly stopped, and his big dark blue eyes looked in one direction.
"Hello!"
Its cry made the master and all three of them look at it in unison.
I saw a black soul beast like a cat, lying on the tree, looking at them vigilantly.
"It's a ten-year-old colorful cat, three guns, don't bother it, move on."
The master glanced at the colorful cat faintly, then raised his feet and continued walking.
"Although the colorful cat is a strong animal, as long as you don't take the initiative to attack, it won't attack easily."
Tang San nodded, keeping it in mind.
Tang Jiulu was still very curious about the colorful cat, and his eyes winked at it.
When the colorful cat saw Tang Jiulu, a trace of doubt flashed in its eyes, and then it made a "meow" sound, and fled with its tail between its legs in fright.
Tang Jiulu curled his mouth, hum, it's so boring!
"This is a lone bamboo, a plant-based soul beast, but its height is not more than ten meters, it is ten years, and more than ten meters is a hundred years."
As the master walked, he introduced the soul beasts he saw, which opened the eyes of Tang San and Tang Jiulu.
Although Tang Jiulu had watched anime, he had never known such a delicate knowledge of soul beasts.
Sure enough, the master is a moving encyclopedia, and she is really, very lucky to be able to worship the master as a teacher.
"This lone bamboo is still very suitable for you, but don't hunt it now, if you really can't find a suitable one later, we will come back and hunt it."
"Of course, I don't want you to hunt this lone bamboo, because this lone bamboo is too low-level."
"You know, you can't change it if you absorb the soul ring. And the limit that the first soul ring can withstand should be four hundred and twenty-three years. ”
"I want your first soul ring to get as close to this limit as possible."
The master said solemnly, suddenly thought of something, and turned his head to look at Tang Jiulu, "By the way, Jiulu, what kind of soul beast did your first soul ring hunt, and how many years?" ”
Tang Jiulu was stunned in an instant, how did she answer this question?
Tang San also frowned, he didn't want to lie to the teacher, but this matter could not be said easily, it was related to Jiulu's life safety.
The master looked at the two, one sluggish, the other silent.
Suddenly I felt a little headache.
"Jiulu, you say, where did you get your first soul ring?"
Jiulu scratched his head, looking dazed, "I don't know." ”
"What? I don't know? The master suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to take this little girl in addition.
Tang San pondered his words for a moment and said, "Jiulu means, I don't know what that soul beast is, according to my observation, it should also be a plant-type soul beast." ”
"I wasn't there at the time, I should have been killed by Jiulu by accident, and then I absorbed it."
"Killed by mistake? Can a hundred-year-old soul beast still be killed like this? The master only felt the bruises in his head.
Tang San smiled awkwardly, "That teacher, in fact, Jiulu is not so quiet......"
After listening to what Tang San said, a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, and he turned his head to look at Tang Jiulu.
Tang Jiulu was a little weak for no reason, "That, that, I ......"
"Okay, let's leave this matter aside for now, and I'll ask you when I get back." The master patted Tang Jiulu's head again angrily.
Tang Jiulu's little round face was about to wrinkle into a bun.
It's over, and you're going to be censored when you go back!
She looked at Tang San pitifully, Tang San sighed, and held her hand tightly, saying that he would definitely help find a way.
Tang Jiulu felt the meaning of Tang San's expression, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, she also has an extremely smart third brother.
They continued to move forward, and the master began to introduce the names and characteristics of the various soul beasts one by one, as well as how to distinguish the cultivation years.
Tang San and Tang Jiulu listened very carefully.
After searching for a long time, naturally there were many qualified soul beasts appearing.
However, it is still early, and there is no hurry to do it.
It was getting dark, and the forest was darkening faster than it was outside, because of the many trees.
"Alright, we're going to live in the Soul Hunting Forest tonight, let's find a place to camp first."
The master said, looking around.
The camp site chosen by the master is a depression surrounded by complex terrain and surrounded by many towering trees.
He took out a glass bottle from a stored soul guide on his wrist and handed it to Tang San.
"Sprinkle around, remember, evenly."
"Good!" Tang San took the bottle, and there were some gray powdered medicines in the bottle, which were a little pungent.
Tang San only moved his nose slightly, and he could already tell that this was some insect repellent powder.
He carefully sprinkled it around, and when it was done, he handed the bottle back to the master.
The three of them sat around and began to drink water and eat the dry food they had brought.
Tang San glanced at Tang Jiulu, took out a small piece of square wrapped in lotus leaves, and handed it over.
"Here, your favorite lotus leaf cake."
Tang Jiulu was stunned for a moment, when they walked out of Notting City before, it seemed that they had passed by a shop selling lotus leaf cakes.
But at that time, she was following the master's side, and she didn't notice that Tang San went to buy lotus leaf cakes.
Tang Jiulu opened the lotus leaf wrapped outside, took out two pieces, and handed them to Tang San and the master respectively.
"Teacher, third brother, you also eat."
The master took a bite with a smile, "Little San, you are really good to Jiulu." Jiulu is really blessed to have a brother like you. ”
Tang San glanced at Tang Jiulu silently and did not speak.
It was Tang Jiulu who said with a smile, "Teacher, the third brother is not my own brother, I am my father's adopted daughter." I also don't know where my biological parents are. ”
"I'm sorry." The master was slightly stunned, looking at Tang Jiulu's eyes with even more pity, he didn't expect Tang Jiulu's life experience to be like this.
"It's okay, since I was born, I have followed my father, my third brother and I grew up together, and we are closer than relatives!"
Tang Jiulu looked up at her little face, smiling, there was no sadness on her face at all, and she winked at Tang San playfully.
