Chapter 76: Cat and Mouse
Walking into the room where Huangfu Xiong ordered someone to clean up, Gu Qingquan applied a water method to himself, and his dusty clothes immediately became as clean as ever.
Instead of taking out the two silver boxes and origin essence that he got in the Golden Lion Cave, Gu Qingquan sat cross-legged on the bed directly, quietly absorbing the aura and Yuan Force in the air.
As night fell, darkness covered the land. A waning moon hung obliquely in the sky, pouring down the silver light from the ground, sprinkled in the Foggy Valley, adding a bit of fairyland-like beauty to the Foggy Valley.
A black figure quietly submerged into the hazy mist, gradually blending into the night.
Gu Qingquan silently swept out of the window of his room, wrapped himself with his soul power, blessed with a thousand blows of weak water, and looked around cautiously.
As soon as Gu Qingquan blessed the weak water thousand blows on his body, a powerful soul force quietly came to Gu Qingquan's side, and the moment he approached Gu Qingquan, it was skillfully slid away.
In the basement of the ancient castle, an old man in a gray robe sat quietly in front of a quaint stone door, and the word sword mound hung elegantly on the door.
"Huh?" The old man sitting in front of the sword mound suddenly opened his eyes, "I obviously feel that someone is near the ancient castle, why is it gone." Am I delusional?"
The old man was puzzled and released his soul power again, but the result was still nothing, he blinked in confusion, closed his eyes again and entered the cultivation.
The ancient Qingquan here was already dripping with cold sweat. At the moment when the old man's soul power was thrown, Gu Qingquan's body suddenly stiffened there, although this soul power was not particularly powerful, but it contained a terrifying coercion, which made Gu Qingquan feel stunned from the bottom of his heart, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on him from head to toe.
Fortunately, Gu Qingquan was fortunate that the soul power that came to explore was skillfully slid away by the weak water thousand blows, otherwise, even if he was a descendant of the Sword Saint and had a relationship with the Huangfu family, it would be difficult to speak.
Weak Water Thousand Strikes is such a good thing. Grinning lightly, Gu Qingquan had no doubt that he had only mastered a small function of the weak water thousand strikes, and the powerful function was waiting for him to slowly dig into it.
Finding a relatively hidden place, Gu Qingquan sat on the ground, feeling the special induction from the blue beads in his heart and neck, and the huge soul power slowly seeped into the ground, looking for the direction of the heart of the earth.
Suddenly, a lump of brown things appeared in the perception of soul power, and before Gu Qingquan could rejoice, the blob of brown stuff had already run away.
The heart of the earth is the essence of the earth, and it has given birth to spiritual wisdom. As long as there is earth, it is its world, and the heart of the earth has already detected it in the first second when the soul power of the ancient clear spring penetrates into the ground.
Gu Qingquan didn't dare to relax and stare at the brown thing, for fear that if it ran away carelessly, it would be troublesome. After the Heart of the Earth slipped out of the distance, it stopped, and stayed quietly underground.
This little thing is worthy of being the essence of all earths, and the rich and pure earth element power is like a gust of wind, impacting his soul. Gu Qingquan exhaled lightly, and once again commanded his soul power to quietly approach the heart of the earth.
Closer, closer, closer. Gu Qingquan nervously controlled his soul power, and a layer of delicate beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Just when Gu Qingquan's soul power was about to catch the heart of the earth from all around, the heart of the earth swooped again and rushed away from the ground.
Gu Qingquan's mood instantly fell into a trough, and this feeling was even more uncomfortable than watching a cooked duck fly. It's like a person walking in the desert who is extremely short of water, seeing an oasis, running over with extreme excitement, only to find that it is just a mirage, and in an instant, there is no mood left, and all that is left is boundless irritability.
Sitting in place, there was still a cold evening breeze drying the beads of sweat on his forehead, and the weak water trick slowly ran in his body, driving away the boredom in his chest, Gu Qingquan exhaled a big breath of turbidity, and once again infiltrated his soul power into the ground, looking for the location of the heart of the earth.
This time, Gu Qingquan was even more cautious, and his soul power spread towards the heart of the earth at a turtle speed of almost one meter per minute, surrounding it from all directions. The Heart of the Earth silently stopped in place, and the brown glow flickered and flickered, and with each flash, a strong earth elemental power gushed out.
Seeing you flee there now, Gu Qingquan swallowed his saliva, stared at the heart of the earth surrounded by soul power, aimed at the brown thing, and pounced violently, and the net-like soul power instantly contracted.
When the soul power contracted at one point, Gu Qingquan frowned again with a headache, he clearly blocked all the escape routes in the heart of the earth, how could this little thing still run away?
Birds know how to choose good trees to perch on, not to mention the heart of the earth that already has thoughts, such spiritual things in heaven and earth. For the entire night, Heart of the Earth was playing a real-life version of a game of cat and mouse with Gu Qingquan. More than once, Gu Qingquan's soul was about to touch the heart of the earth, and more than once, the heart of the earth slipped at a critical moment. It's just the same as the cat and mouse in the cartoon, Gu Qingquan is the tragic cat, the prey is close at hand, but it has never been successfully caught.
In this chase, Gu Qingquan's heart unconsciously calmed down a lot, and the range between joy and irritability became smaller and smaller. Just like the bamboo basket for water, although not a drop of water can be filled, but in the water again and again, the bamboo basket itself will be washed cleaner and cleaner, and these changes are imperceptibly occurring.
The night gradually faded, the warmth returned to the earth, looking at the white of the fish belly lit up in the east, Gu Qingquan wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead. In the blue beads on the mouth of the heart and neck, the special feeling with the heart of the earth is still there.
I'll do it! Little thing, master, sooner or later, I will catch you, bite you one by one, and swallow your stomach! Gu Qingquan snorted in his heart, Rao is a person with a good temper, and he will be angry after being played all night. But fortunately, as long as this little thing is still in this foggy valley, I will definitely be able to catch it! I'm afraid, I'm afraid, this little thing is naughty, running around the entire Eastern Continent, it will be a tragedy.
Brushing the dust from the corners of his clothes, Gu Qingquan stepped away from his slightly numb feet and quietly swept towards the ancient castle.
Quietly returning to the ancient castle, Gu Qingquan threw himself on the bed in a large shape, intending to rest for a while, grabbing the heart of the earth all night, he was really tired.
At this moment, there was a sharp knock on the door. What's wrong? Gu Qingquan rubbed a carp and bounced up from the bed, walked to the door and pulled it violently.
A cold light happened to shoot into Gu Qingquan's eyes from the crack in the door that had just been opened, and he subconsciously tilted his head, and Gu Qingquan looked at the visitor.
I saw that Huang Fushan was still dressed in white, standing in front of the door heroically, looking at Gu Qingquan, and shaking the scimitar in his hand, with "pick" written on the left face and "provoked" on the right face.
