Chapter 5 How to grow without taking risks
"I can bear it."
Panda Marimaru's limbs were spread out, and his whole body was embedded in the cliff and stone wall, and he couldn't pull it out, and his face was full of sadness for a while.
The gap is too big......
A moment ago, it was about to teach the red fox a lesson.
The bloodline demon, born with divine power, is like thunder and anger when attacking, and the momentum shakes the mountains.
Marimaru kicked the ground and borrowed his strength, as if a heavy cannon was firing angrily, roaring, and a little black shadow on the ground quickly expanded, and in an instant, it had enveloped the "weak and helpless" red fox.
What catches your eye is a fox face that seems to be smiling but not smiling.
This was followed by a sweeping foxtail.
Marimaru's eyes widened in shock, this tail was obviously not fast, but he couldn't dodge it.
"Oops!"
Its entire body flew upside down, spun uncontrollably in mid-air, and shot backwards at a faster speed, colliding with the hard cliff walls, stirring up sand and gravel in the sky.
Zhu An flicked his tail and looked at the panda deeply embedded in the cliff, his eyes were leisurely, a little nostalgic, and a little lonely.
"Right now, just like that moment."
The last Demon King Ancestor of the Iron Eating Clan, who has a unique magical talent - he can sense the location of all the bamboos around him, and he stumbled upon Zhu'an back then.
It thought it was just a treasure medicine, and was about to pick it, but Zhu An was caught off guard and swept away with a bamboo whip.
The ancestor rubbed his buttocks and got up, not angry but happy: "Interesting, this bamboo actually produced a sanity - what, you can still speak?" ”
"Then don't be in a hurry to fight, let's talk about it first......"
Three thousand years later, the arrow bamboo is still green, but the big demon king who laughed and scolded back then no longer exists.
Poof.
Marimaru struggled to get out, and an upside-down onion fell off the cliff, his round little face sinking into the dirt.
It quickly got up and spat out a mouthful of dirt, its mouth full of bitter taste.
"Okay, you won, and now you're the boss of Qishan."
After saying that, he turned around in frustration and prepared to leave Qishan and look elsewhere for opportunities.
That's how it has come over these years, wandering around, I'm used to it, I thought I would be able to settle down after being promoted to the big demon, but I didn't expect it to be the same.
Fortunately, the resource endowment in this area of Qishan is not good, and there is nothing to be nostalgic about.
"Stop."
Zhu An shouted out to Marimaru, and then said its biggest problem at the moment:
"You have a special bloodline, and you can't grow up for a long time, which is a good thing and a bad thing - if you delay it for a few more years and miss your childhood, the demon king will have no hope in this life."
Marimaru was shocked when he heard this, "How did you know?" ”
"Your ancestor said that."
"......" Marimaru naturally didn't believe the nonsense of this red fox, but he couldn't beat it, so he could only snort coldly, "Farewell." ”
Zhu An stopped it again, "Come with me, only I can raise you." ”
Marimaru pursed his lips when he heard this, and his footsteps did not stop, secretly saying that this dead fox was really hateful, and he used it again and again to make fun.
I still use you to raise it?
The Iron Eaters have always been independent and self-reliant, and they never send people under the fence!
The next moment, there was a rich fragrance coming with the wind, with sweetness in the coolness, Maruman inhaled his nose, and was instantly intoxicated, and saliva unconsciously flowed down from the corners of his mouth.
Is there such a fragrant smell in the world? It must be the best medicine!
It quickly turned, eagerly reaching out to look over.
I saw a leaf as clear as jade and verdant as dripping in the air, and it disappeared in a flash, and its eyes were straight.
It's its favorite bamboo leaf!
Then he saw the red fox smile slightly, and turned his head and ran towards the outside of the valley, extremely fast.
"Wait for me!" Marumaru is going to chase after him.
As soon as it stepped out, it was shocked to realize that something was wrong with its surroundings—
All traces of the battle had disappeared, and the ground had become as smooth as ever, including the holes it had made in the cliffs, and everything was back to its original state.
As for the hundreds of demon beasts around, they all fell into a state of stupor from the time the red fox appeared, and they didn't come back to their senses until this moment.
Was it just a dream?
Marimaru looked into the distance, the back of the red fox gradually faded away, and the wisp of fragrance still lingered in his nose, not like a fake.
"Do you want to follow?"
With the strong combat power of that red fox, it is easy to kill yourself. However, he is still alive and well.
"Could it be that you want to take advantage of me?"
Marimaru shook his head again, what else was it worth utilizing now? The iron-eaters have long since left nothing.
The red fox in front of him has not stopped, and his back is about to disappear into the dense forest.
Marimaru vaguely felt that if he let this mysterious fox go, his chance to change his fate would be completely lost.
It could only wrinkle its nose and sigh old-fashionedly, "Mother, I also want to grow up peacefully." ”
"But, how can you grow up without taking some risks?"
After saying that, he no longer hesitated, and resolutely rushed out of the valley.
As for the hundreds of little demons left in the valley, they blinked, waking up like a dream, and staring blankly at the dwarf back outside the valley.
Didn't you say you were going to take them on the expedition? Why did you leave on your own all of a sudden?
"I can't remember a little, where is this iron-eating beast taking us from what he said before?" A bear demon wondered.
"What kind of mountain does it look like? Or what ridge? I can't remember it, whatever. The other tiger demon yawned and put the matter behind him.
"Shall we ...... Do you want to keep up? The bear demon asked sullenly.
An old wolf glanced at it, "This big demon hasn't spoken yet, what are you doing?" ”
The bear demon nodded, "Yes." ”
Another little demon asked, "But it didn't let us go home either?" ”
Old wolf: "Then wait, it won't forget so many of our monsters." ”
The bear demon nodded, "Yes." ”
……
The sun moves slowly above the valley, from east to west, from early morning to dusk.
"Why don't you disperse?" The old wolf yawned and said, "It should have forgotten us." ”
"Scattered, scattered."
The demons scattered, stamping their numb paws and staggering out of the valley.
Suddenly, a swift wind rose, and a screaming sound was like a steel cone, piercing from a high place, stabbing all the demon beasts' eardrums in severe pain, and their hearts were distracted.
Phew-
A black shadow suddenly descended, and it was an eagle falling straight from the clouds!
The eagle is huge, its wings are three zhang long, its black feathers are like iron scales, its claws are like steel hooks, its sharp beak is slightly open, and its fierce appearance is exposed.
The momentum is far more powerful than the panda pill that has not yet grown up.
The eagle's eyes were like knives, and he glanced around coldly, and the demons were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and crawled back to the valley with their faces crying and crying secretly.
It's a big demon again! And at first glance, it is a hundred times more ferocious than the iron-eating beast.
I can't live this day!
The demons cowered and fell to the ground, hoping that the eagle demon was not here to hunt, otherwise they would be trapped in the valley and would surely suffer heavy casualties.
The eagle was condescending, glanced around coldly, and asked, "Is there an iron-eating beast that has just become a big demon?" Where is it? ”
It turned out that they were looking for that bastard, and the little demons breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied:
"I was still in the valley in the morning, and I left suddenly, and I haven't returned."
Let's go? The eagle's eyes were low, obviously displeased, "In which direction?" ”
The little demons trembled and stretched out their claws, pointing in unison.
On the soft ground outside the valley, there is a very clear series of panda footprints, which are obviously heading due north.
"Hmph, once you find the traces of the iron-eating beast in the future, you must immediately report it to the Black Eagle Cliff, and the offender will be severely punished!" Without delay, the eagle immediately flapped its wings and took off, and left in a hurry.
Leaving the demons looking at each other, the old wolf was the first to react and let out a burst of gloating laughter.
"That iron-eating beast is going to be out of luck!"
Black Eagle Cliff, two thousand miles away, has long been famous. Because there is a powerful eagle king sitting there, entrenched in a dangerous cliff, looking at the sky, and out of the eight directions, making the demons tremble.
Although it is not clear why the Black Eagle Cliff is looking for the Iron Eater, the eagle is murderous at a glance, and the person who came is not good.
The eagle soars for nine days, with extreme speed and a gaze as sharp as lightning, and will not let go of any target on the ground.
The iron-eating beast was chased and killed by the big demon eagle, can it still run?
"Whew—good days are back." The old wolf raised his head and let out a long howl of happiness.
The bear demon also nodded heavily, "Yes." ”
