Chapter 972: Underground Rat Clan
"Mouse-c-m" Bai Xuan said suddenly, his expression was very serious, and he didn't show any action, which made Gou Shen's face can't help but show a look of surprise, and he couldn't help but look at Li Er beside him, but he saw the other party nodding with the same solemn expression.
"Really-a mouse?" Gou Shen asked, a little incredulously, how could a rat be so big, and he could stand up and walk upright, and he could mine with a mine hoe, and even speak, even if the other party - a high-level mysterious beast or a strange beast or something, it would be absolutely impossible to accomplish this thing, could this mouse become a sperm?
The most fundamental difference between humans and beasts is that they make and use tools, no matter how intelligent a beast is, even if it learns the human language, even if it transforms into a human form, the most fundamental difference between it and humans is that the beast can't learn to use all kinds of tools, they don't know how to use tools, they prefer to use their claws and fangs more than tools!
Gou Shen still feels, most of the time, Li Er and Bai Xuan have seen something wrong, but- as if they have seen through Gou Shen's thoughts, Li Er opened his mouth - said:
"As much as I would like to - we may have been mistaken, but- in fact, we are pretty sure that we are absolutely not mistaken, that thing just now is definitely not - a person, although he is clothed on his body, although he walks upright, and can speak, but- there is still a layer of hair all over his body, and the claws are very small, especially the head, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible - it belongs to a human head, this guy absolutely can't - a person, and judging by the characteristics of those details, most of it is - a mouse!"
Gou Shen was - surprised - speechless, pondered for a long time, and did not remember what classics he had read in his mind that recorded such a group of humans.
"What the hell is this? Could it be the orcs of the legend, or really—a mysterious beast, or maybe a human who has become what he is?"
"Okay, don't think about it so much, since these things are all riddles, then let's just follow that person over and have a look, don't we know everything?"
Several people discussed it, and they couldn't suppress the curiosity in their hearts, wanting to know what kind of existence this guy had just appeared.
Gou Shen probably felt the distance between the mouse and himself, as well as the direction, and the mark left by Gou Shen also has an ability, just - can leave a breath along the road that only Gou Shen can feel, so the rest of the problem is simple.
A few people quickly caught up with the mouse in front of them along this road, but - they also kept enough distance from this time, and the road behind them also - suddenly began to become more complicated, but this mouse did not look like - leading everyone in circles, the goal of his walk was very clear, the speed was not hurried, and it was very easy for a few people to follow behind.
When I walked somewhere, the terrain suddenly began to open up, as if I had entered a new world, and when I got out of the hole, the terrain outside became extremely open, and the roof above my head was so high that I couldn't see the border, but there was a lot less cover outside, and if I chased too closely like just now, it was easy to be discovered by the other party.
"Let's wait-here before leaving, and we'll follow when that guy is far away, anyway, there is that imprint, this guy can't be lost, and it's not good if he finds out. ”
Gou Shen and a few people waited at the entrance of the cave for a long time, and then finally left the cave and continued to march towards the depths. And the terrain here is too open, a few people dare not light up the luminous stone, can only move forward in the dark, but- only walked for a while, a short distance forward, then- suddenly felt a few breaths approaching in the direction of this side, the speed is extremely fast, and the number is huge, but in the blink of an eye, everyone has been surrounded, and is approaching, and at the same time, the person who was previously hooked and sunk, the mark on his body - disappeared suddenly.
If the guy lifted the mark himself, Gou Shen would never believe it, this could only be - Ming in this underground world - there is a strong man almost as strong as Gou Shen!
Thinking of this, Gou Shen's heart sank instantly, and he hurriedly shouted:
"Li Er, light up quickly!"
Gou Shen commanded, Li Er directly took out his largest luminous stone from his storage ring, Xuanli seemed to rush directly into it as if he didn't want money, and the powerful Xuanli made this luminous stone emit a dazzling strong light, just like a small sun, everything nearby was instantly illuminated, and the light was as bright as day!
A few people had been in the darkness for a long time—some too long, and they were a little unable to adapt to the light, but -- those who were about to surround Gou Shen and his party -- were even more unbearable, and they all immediately stopped their steps, stopped in place, and even some of the timid ones had begun to retreat, and their little hands were covering their eyes, and the beings who had survived in the darkness for an unknown number of years seemed to have no idea what this light was, and a sharp cry had begun to sound:
"This, this-what? This light is so strong!"
"Ah, my eyes, my eyes are blind!"
"The light is so strong, you can't see anything!"
Of course, the light that a luminous stone can emit is limited, and the space is really a bit wide, and the brightness that can be produced is really limited. It didn't even take long for Gou Shen and his party to get used to the light, but the beings that surrounded Gou Shen seemed to have changed their eyes physiologically, and they could only adapt to the darkness, and in the light it was as if they were in the darkness, seeing nothing, and in an instant they were all blind!
The eyesight of Gou Shen and the others gradually recovered, and only then did they finally see the appearance of these beings in front of them.
Indeed, as Li Er and Bai Xuan described, the beings in front of them were all about three or four feet tall, and they were very short.
The hair, the peculiar shape, the sharp nose, the two sharp incisors among the teeth, the little hands, and the long tails trailing behind them, no matter how you look at them, some mice!
How could it be—a bunch of rats? Why do they all talk like that, and their intelligence is not low? Could it be that they're all some kind of mystical beasts that have turned on their intelligence?
Looking at the dozens or even hundreds of mice in front of him, Gou Shen only felt that his scalp was a little numb, and quickly began to sweep over these mice with his divine sense, and began to probe their cultivation, but - to make Gou Shen even more surprised - these mice did not have much cultivation at all, and the level of cultivation of the Xuan Power on their bodies was probably only equivalent to the level of a human Xuan General, and some of them could reach the level of the Xuan King, but it was only the highest.
However, their bodies are relatively strong, and their qi and blood are obviously very vigorous, and their strength can probably be higher than their cultivation level, but it is not much higher.
Seeing this, Gou Shen breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how many Gou Shen came to this level, he would not be afraid, but he was even more curious about why their spiritual intelligence was so high.
"What the hell are you guys, why are you breaking into our lands!"
I don't know where I heard the voice of the nezumi, shouting loudly.
"We're not going to break into here, we're just going to the underworld, passing through here, and there's absolutely no offense. ”
Although the strength of these guys is not high, but-considering that there may be a strong person whose strength is not below him, and also considering that after all, here is the other party's land card, rashly making the relationship too stiff with the other party is not good for himself, and it is more polite to hook Shen - words are also- more polite.
"Hmph, this is - our territory, without our consent, you came in without permission, this is - provoking us, this - intruding into our territory, you are still - it is better to be caught!"
Although Gou Shen is more polite, it doesn't mean that the other party will appreciate it, these little things obviously don't have a good impression of Gou Shen, - the words are very - you're welcome.
"You foreign intruders, you'd better - hurry up and arrest you, or don't blame us for being rude to you!"
Gou Shen has already said good things, and when he heard them not appreciate it at all, he gradually became angry. Seeing that although those rats wanted to come, they were afraid of the luminous stone in Li Er's hand, and shouted again: "Hurry up and put away the things in your hands, this light is so dazzling that we can't see anything!"
"Hmph!" Gou Shen gave them an answer only - a cold snort, since the other party is not polite to him, then he has no need to be polite to the other party, Gou Shen snorted coldly, and directly released his momentum, and the momentum of the whole body suddenly - made those little mice flee in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, they disappeared.
"Hmph, a group of little rats, they dare to be so polite to me, really-I don't know how thick the sky is!" Gou Shen saw that those guys all fled, and then slowly retracted his momentum.
"These little things, the strength is really - weak can be, but with such weak strength, how can they- have such a powerful spiritual intelligence? I think there should be - there is something wrong here, maybe - there is some treasure inheritance here, or - there is some master here. Li Er also said in a deep voice.
"What should we do? Let's go now-leave, and go over and explore? I think it's already in their land, and I'm sure it's not far from where they live, do you want to go over and have a look?"
"Of course I have to go over, a group of little rats, dare to do this to my Lord Bai Xuan, I want to see, we broke into their land, what can they do with me?" Bai Xuan was the first to stand up and agree, Li Er also nodded, as for Er Niu, he would never be able to deal with Gou Shen's ideas and proposals, Gou Shen wanted to explore, he naturally followed. Bai Xuan's thoughts are nothing more than the thoughts between beasts, the competition for land cards, the weak face between each other, being unceremoniously expelled by a group of little mice, Bai Xuan naturally wants to let the other party know that he knows how powerful he is. Gou Shen and Li Er, on the other hand, had the idea of coming here to explore, the rats here have such a strange thing, maybe there really is some very powerful treasure here.
