Chapter 82: The Old Turtle
A few dozen meters away from the spring pond turned around a naked short old man, carrying half a fish in his right hand and a straw rope in his left hand, on which a struggling toad was tied.
Zhong Kui squatted, and when Fan Wu, who was embarrassed to look at it, turned his head and just saw the old man coming out of the forest, his thin and thin naked body was really a little spicy, and Fan Wu hurriedly reminded the two people on the shore not to look back.
But the two people who heard the movement had already seen the appearance of the old man, and Zixian, who had no concept in his mind, didn't feel anything, Zhong Kui immediately snorted a few times and turned his head away, and blocked Zixian's eyes with his hand, reminding her not to look at indecent things.
The old man with a pair of small mung bean eyes also saw the three of them, and instead of rushing over, he stopped at the edge of the forest and shouted loudly to this side in a tone similar to that of a eunuch.
"Who are you and why are you at my house?"
Fan Wu heard the old man's words and looked back at Zixian, "Zixian, this is what you said about the old turtle that can transform into shapes?"
"Well, yes, Brother Fan Wu, although his appearance is different from before the transformation, I recognize his breath. Zixian reached out and took away Zhong Kui's palm in front of him and said.
The old man saw that no one answered the few uninvited guests here, and he didn't act rashly, but narrowed the mung bean eyes to only a thin slit, and a trace of green light appeared in the slit, and he wanted to use his talent turtle eyes to see where these few were sacred.
The turtle demon is different from other demon races, there is no extraordinary talent, no strong attack skills, the only thing that is stronger than other races is several times longer lifespan and super self-protection awareness.
To put it bluntly, they are cautious, prudence and patience are their greatest talents on the path of cultivation, and all turtle demons believe that the leftover is king, and they are the best at shrinking their heads and pretending to be dead.
But this old turtle on the top of the mountain is a little different from other turtle demons, and the other turtle demons are cautious from the beginning to the end, and they can't wait until they become successful in cultivation to intersect with the outside world, so the turtle demons seen in the world are all old demons with super high strength, and it is very rare to see the turtle demons who have cultivated to half show their faces.
And this turtle demon is a bit deviant in the turtle clan, his caution refers to when facing a strong enemy, once he finds that the opponent's strength is not as good as him, he will immediately kill and steal the cultivation results, otherwise he will not be able to occupy the best cultivation place on the top of the mountain for so many years.
If he can fight, he will be killed, and if he can't fight, he will pretend to be dead, this is his way of survival, so in the past few days, when he felt that the energy required to improve his strength was lacking, he immediately caught and killed the neighbor who was specially kept, and was ready to eat it and then devour the purple python, jumping to a first-order strength in one fell swoop.
When he came back with his two neighbors, he found that the little snake demon who lived on the mountainside actually sent it to the door by himself, and he was a little happy, but he was worried about the two people around her, so he asked politely.
It's just that no one paid attention to him, so he had to squint his turtle eyes to see the strength of the two of them and then decide the attitude of getting along, but how to look at these two people are young people with low strength, and the threat revealed is not as big as the snake demon, the old turtle felt a little entangled.
Fan Wu and Zhong Kui have both been Cheng Wei for a short time, and the power on their bodies is relatively obscure, and the power attribute is relatively obscure, which is not at all something that an ordinary monster can perceive.
What was revealed in the eyes of the old turtle was the level of soul power before the two of them became a dragon, both of them became dragons at a young age, and the soul power on their bodies was not high at that time, so they felt inferior to the level of the purple python.
The old turtle is entangled in the strength of the three people opposite, for him, two are no problem, and the three are a little reluctant to go together, so for a while, I don't know whether to say good things or be ruthless.
But in the past two days, I have received news from the Tao that the outside world has begun to change, and if you don't hurry up to improve your strength, it may be difficult to survive in the troubled times in the future, although there is time for the turtle clan, but this is not the result he wants.
Gritting his teeth, the old turtle swallowed half of the fish in his hand, bolted the straw rope on his left hand to the tree next to him, and summoned a small shield in the shape of a turtle shell out of nowhere.
Slowly walked to the pool and asked, "Who are you and what are you going to do here?"
Fan Wu learned that this old man was the turtle demon occupying this spring, and said to him politely: "Senior, we are just tracing the river to find the source of the spring, and we have no intention of offending, please forgive me." ”
Seeing that Fan Wu said politely, the old turtle didn't think that he was polite, but felt that they must have spoken so politely because they didn't have the strength, and strengthened his determination to give it a go, so he didn't answer, but squinted his eyes and calculated the way and order of the shots.
Fan Wu saw that he didn't speak, so he had to stand by the pool and continue: "Senior, we really have no malicious intentions, we just want to know the source of the spring water, do you know?"
"I don't know. He replied impatiently, and the old turtle gradually approached the three of them, his eyes narrowed even thinner, and he could barely see the seams.
Fan Wu saw him approaching, and naturally blocked in front of Zhong Kui and Zixian, "I don't know, forget it, senior, if you want to come over to talk, please put on your clothes or block it with something, after all, there are two girls here." ”
"Wear a fart, our demon clan is born like this, wearing clothes is your human habit, why should I listen to you?" The old turtle had already come close by talking time, looking for the best angle and opportunity to shoot.
Fan Wu sneered in his heart, "Since it is said to be a bad habit, if you have the ability, you don't want to turn into a human form, or if you are still a turtle, who cares if you wear it or not?"
But he didn't say it, and whispered again to remind the two beauties behind him, "Don't look, it will be more spicy later." ”
"Well, kill this damn pervert. Zhong Kui replied.
"Brother Fan Wu, be careful, his turtle shell defense should be very strong. Zixian also whispered.
"Hehe, okay. Fan Wu smiled heartily, it seemed that he didn't just feel the hostility of the old turtle.
In fact, the three of them all had very sensitive feelings, and they felt his strong hostility from the time the old turtle took out the turtle shell, but Fan Wu began to think that it was the behavior of the three of them who offended each other.
Later, after the words were explained, not only did not reduce the hostility of the old turtle, but became stronger and stronger, and after approaching, it had become a killing intent, and Fan Wu, who didn't want to clash with him, had no choice but to prepare.
In fact, according to his current strength, he is a bit of a bully, but since the old turtle doesn't listen to good words, he can only teach Luo a little lesson.
The old turtle, who didn't know that the three of them had already sensed the killing intent, came to the front, and suddenly threw the turtle shell in his hand forward, and shouted in his mouth, "Go!"
After the turtle shell left his hand, it grew into the wind, and instantly became as big as a door panel, and it collided head-on with the three of them, probably because he wanted to attack the three of them at the same time, he could also block Fan Wu's attack, and he could consider being invincible at any time, which was really the consistent combat style of the turtle demon.
Fan Wu didn't have any evasion, summoned the sand eagle to shoot at the middle of the turtle shell, and found that the turtle clan's defense was really not covered, and it could actually block the soul bullet attack, but it just made the turtle shell pause, and did not shoot through a single shot.
Looking at the turtle shell that was still coming head-on after a pause, he immediately switched angles and fired two shots at the lower right corner of the turtle shell.
"Bang bang, bang bang!"
After two shots, the turtle shell was knocked off the ground, and Fan Wu fired another shot at the tumbling turtle shell, and the huge impact and inertia lifted it up high, and fell to the ground behind them with a bang over the heads of the three people.
"Bang. ”
The old turtle saw that the blow was fruitless, even the turtle shell was blown away, and just about to turn around and run, Fan Wu shot him through his right leg again, and the old turtle suddenly rolled to the ground unconscious.
Fan Wu turned around and took two steps to pick up the turtle shell and came to the injured old turtle who pretended to be dead, and slapped the turtle shell in his hand on him heavily, pressing his whole body and only * exposed.
Then squatted on the turtle shell and pointed a gun at the old * skull, "If you play dead again, your dream will come true." ”
The old turtle who was still pretending to be dead after enduring the pressure of the turtle shell, had to slowly open his eyes and looked at Fan Wu with embarrassment and fear, thinking to himself What kind of little fat sheep are you pretending to be with this strength, and you still have to deal with a little demon like me, is it interesting?
"My lord, spare my life, the little old man confessed to you here that he was wrong, you are strong, you can't bully the small with the big and bully me, the old man. After speaking, he showed a tearful look.
But he didn't want to think that people didn't say that their strength was not good at all, it was always him who thought that people's strength was average, and then he took the initiative to attack to no avail, and was dealt with by someone a few times, and now he is pretending to be pitiful, which is really wonderful.
At this time, Zhong Kui and the others also came to the turtle shell to look at the old turtle, and Zhong Kui said, "Hey, your old turtle is not very good at fighting, but your skin is thick enough." After speaking, he stomped his foot and smiled.
The old turtle screamed like a pig, "Ah, crush me, trample me to death, let the three adults let me go, come down first, okay?"
Zixian was just about to get down from the turtle shell and was pulled by Zhong Kui, Fan Wu and Zhong Kui glanced at each other, with black lines on their faces.
"Damn, old turtle, you call a fart, this shell is your own weapon, how can it crush you? ”
After speaking, Fan Wu put the muzzle of the gun on the forehead of the old turtle, and the old turtle instantly stopped performing and returned to his normal expression, "What do adults want to ask, Xiao Kezhi has nothing to say." ”
There is still the pitiful look on his face just now, and he instantly becomes a slave with low eyebrows and obedient eyes.
Zixian and Zhong Kui were dumbfounded by this face-changing technique, but Fan Wu didn't feel anything, he just felt that it was a waste for this old turtle not to make a movie.
Seeing that the old turtle seemed to be honest at last, Fan Wu put away the pistol, sat directly on the turtle shell and asked him about the spring water, and probably knew the source of the spring water from his answer.
It's just that the old turtle can't feel the dead air in the water, and just tells Fan Wu that this spring leads directly to the underground river at the bottom of the mountain, and he has never been to the underground river, so he doesn't know where it flows, let alone where the source is.
It's just that I once heard an old demon who occupied this place say before leaving, that the underground river connects to the Xuanwu Tomb, one of the four holy places of the demon clan, but I don't know if it's true or not.
For so many years, no one has found the location of the Holy Land at all, so everyone just says that, most of the demon clans will say that their cultivation is inextricably linked to the Holy Land, just to say that they feel high, so no one will take it seriously.
Fan Wu was noncommittal after hearing this, he was not very interested in whether it was the Demon Clan's Holy Land, but he was very persistent about that trace of death, thinking that since it was connected to the underground river, he would find a way to go down and have a look.
I was just curious to follow the dead breath after feeling it in the river before, but when I felt it in the spring just now, I felt a trace of familiarity from the dead air, as if I had encountered it somewhere, or the breath of a familiar person, so I had to ask for an understanding.
After asking all the questions, Fan Wu let go of the old turtle, and the old turtle ran away with a turtle shell on his back in an instant, and he didn't even take the toad tied to the tree, and Zixian went over to untie the toad and let it go.
The toad jumped in front of Fan Wu and said that he wanted to repay the grace of saving his life, of course Fan Wu didn't need anything in return, and he didn't look down on the toad's so-called reward for being by his side to help.
Such a violent and ugly little demon followed him, and he couldn't fight very well, and he didn't look good, so Fan Wu refused at once.
It's just that this toad is very persistent, and has been following the three of them far away, and does not harass them, but does not leave, and finally Fan Wu has to acquiesce to it to follow like this, anyway, it is not troublesome and does not talk much, so it should be more than one sentry.
The three of them left the top of the mountain and went to the foot of the other side of the mountain, and heard from the old turtle that there was a valley behind it, which was the closest ground to the underground river, so Fan Wu was going there to see if he could go underground.
Soon the group came to the bottom of the valley that the old turtle had said, and there was no trace of water flowing here, but there was an entrance to a cave at the very end.
The three people who decided to go into the cave had not yet moved, and the toad, who was still far behind him, jumped all the way over everyone and rushed into the cave first.
