Chapter 42: Slaying the Water Monster
Dongling Villa, also known as Lotus Villa, is a ten-mile water, with sparkling water in the center and fairy mist.
As far as the eye can see, there are green lotus leaves, and pink lotus flowers stand on the branches like a small jasper, and there are long green mountains in the distance surrounding this large lake. Because the midsummer has passed, there are many lotus pods quietly hidden behind the flowers, and a gust of wind blows, frequently nodding in the breeze.
In the middle of the lake, among the lotus leaves, there is a little fairy child in the villa holding a small black wooden boat, stopping and picking lotus pods.
"Do you want to go down the boat to play?" seemed to ask Yebai on the side at the beginning, if it wasn't for Yebai, if it wasn't for the late autumn, she would have already gotten into the water to swim. Picking lotus seeds, picking water chestnuts, if you are lucky, you can also touch the lively brocade lithium. If you really can't do it, dig a few tender lotus root tips in the mud, break it and wash the mud in the water casually, put it in your mouth and bite it, sweet and crunchy, very delicious.
"Yes. Yebai thought it was a good suggestion, and of course there was no reason to refuse.
When the two of them walked to the shore and were about to step on the small wooden boat with a black canopy parked on the side, the senior brother Wuxiu shouted behind them, "Don't go into the water." โ
After shouting them, he continued to call out to the little fairy child who was picking lotus that was drifting away, "Who told you to go into the water today, come back quickly!"
However, the little fairy boy is getting farther and farther away from them, and his voice can still be heard.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?" Wan Ruochu was a little puzzled, why couldn't he go to the water, when did Dongling Villa have such a ban.
"I don't have time to explain, I have to bring that little disciple ashore first. With that, Edgeworth flew away into the middle of the lake.
Unexpectedly, before Wuxiu arrived, the little fairy child's small wooden boat began to swing violently from side to side, and huge waves rolled around the boat, and Wuxiu couldn't even go close to the rescue.
"Ahh
At this critical moment, a white figure pulled the little fairy boy up with one hand from the small wooden boat with lightning speed, and spun and rose rapidly, at the same time, the small wooden boat was split by the powerful waves and scattered on the lake.
As the wooden boat shattered, a black shadow on the water surface could not be avoided, and it was shot by the lotus petals of several petals casting spells, struggled a few times, and then dived into the water again.
It turned out that Wu Xiu propped up a big mahogany boat and came to the middle of the water, and Yebai took the little fairy child from mid-air and slowly fell onto the boat.
"Senior brother, why is there such a water demon in the lake of Lotus Mountain Villa?" It seems that I have lived here for hundreds of years, and I don't know how many times I have shuttled back and forth in this water, and I have never seen such a strange thing.
"I don't know, it seems that I just found out today that a disciple just fell into the water and disappeared, and the master is leading a group of disciples to look for it on the other side. When Wu Xiu and Wan Ruo first explained, they were still cautiously looking at the water, for fear that the water demon would suddenly jump out of the water and attack.
"It's the sparkling monster of the East China Sea. After Yebai stood firm in the bow of the ship, he replied to the words of the beginning.
"But the East China Sea and Dongling Mountain Villa are separated by hundreds of miles, how could the water demon come here for no reason?" asked Wu Xiu puzzled.
Yebai pondered for a while, did not answer Wu Xiu, but thought of a person who might do this, that is the daughter of the god of the East China Sea, Lan You. In this way, Wan Ruochu's whereabouts and true appearance are afraid that she knows.
Thinking of this, he looked at Wan Ruochu standing opposite with some concern. Not only her, but I'm afraid that the entire Dongling Villa will not be peaceful recently. This time it's a sparkling monster, and I don't know what it will be next time.
This Lan You is really not a good type, but the queen likes her so much.
And the latter, seeing Yebai's worried look, asked, "Is this sparkling monster difficult to deal with?"
Yebai came back to his senses slightly, and replied to her words: "If this is on the sea, it is easy to deal with, and you can kill it directly with a sword, but there are lotus flowers in this lake, and these water demons can be cunning, and if they can't beat it, they hide in lotus leaves or water plants, and when people don't pay attention, they come out to attack again." โ
"Then there is no way?" Wu Xiu listened, really feeling a little annoyed. If this is the case, wouldn't Dongling Villa have no peace.
"Of course there is. Yebai blinked and said.
Just kidding, he is the prince of the dignified Heavenly Clan, if a few water monsters can't be subdued, won't he be made fun of by the beings of the Six Realms when he says it.
"Don't sell it, let's talk about your method, how to lure out this sparkling monster?" Of course, Wan Ruochu knew that he would be able to catch these water monsters, but how to attract these water monsters from the bottom of the water, didn't it mean that they were very cunning?
"I'll lend you a necklace around your neck. โ
Yebai pointed to the dragon scale necklace on her chest.
"Okay. Wan Ruochu hurriedly took out the dragon scales that were as white as jade, but as thin as wings, but the golden silk was tied very short, how to take it out, she looked at Yebai with some embarrassment.
"In the future, if someone asks you to borrow this dragon scale necklace, non-parents are not allowed to agree. Yebai doesn't seem to be a little satisfied with her cheerfulness, so she shouldn't be so generous to everyone. You must know that this is a token he gave her, and the blood is connected.
"Of course, except for my mother and father, it's you. As if he had promised at the beginning, he muttered in his heart, big brother, when is this time, let's get back to the topic, it's important to get rid of the water monster.
"Are you sure you want me to take it out for you?" Yebai asked, glancing at Wan Ruochu.
"What do you mean by me being sure, didn't you say you wanted to borrow the dragon scale necklace?"
"It seems like oh, then you have to bear with it. Yebai said and slowly walked towards Wan Ruochu.
"What? What does it mean to endure and endure it?" looked at Yebai who was slowly approaching as if he had no idea at first, and couldn't help but want to step back. This Yebai doesn't know who to learn from lately, he doesn't play cards according to the previous routine at all, he is not elegant at all, and he doesn't look like a prince of the Heavenly Clan at all.
Yebai grabbed her and held her waist to prevent her from falling back into the lake.
After she stood firm, she pulled up her slender jade fingers, stroked them gently, and thenโeven showed a smile somewhat similar to Ziyan's, and bit down.
"Ah, Stinky Night, you're a dog. It was as if he was caught off guard by Yebai and screamed in pain.
However, before she could react, Yebai picked up the finger that had been bitten by him and pressed it against the dragon scales on his chest.
In an instant, the dragon scales turned translucent and glowed with golden light, which was very dazzling.
Then, the golden thread was gone, and the dragon scales fell like feathers in his palm.
"Wow, that's amazing!" said in amazement, as if he had forgotten the pain in his fingertips and looked at the dragon scales he wore every day.
"Try with a wave of your fingers. Yebai said to her with a pampering smile.
As if hearing his words for the first time, he moved his fingers slightly, and the dragon scales actually followed the movement of his fingers.
"Will it be able to do my bidding, shall I let it deal with the water monster?" asked him with some excitement, completely forgetting the revenge of the finger being bitten just now.
"At that time, your spiritual cultivation is strong enough, of course, you can use it as a weapon, but as far as your current cultivation is concerned, you can only rely on the blood on the dragon scales to lure the Radiant Monster out, and then we will kill it together. Yebai said this, on the one hand, it is true that her spiritual cultivation is not enough, if the dragon scales attack, it is very likely to be devoured and absorbed by the water monster, and on the other hand, she also wants to use this radical method to lure her to practice spells diligently in the future.
"Alright then, I'll practice spells, and try to fully control it next time. โ
Sure enough, this method of agitation worked.
"Remember to wait for the sparkling monsters to surface, and then hold on to the dragon scales, don't worry, they won't be able to get close to you. Yebai was worried that she was scared and confessed to her.
"Don't worry. "It's like the beginning is actually not a delicate and pretentious body, and it is not enough to be frightened by these water monsters.
In this way, Yebai and Wuxiu each held their swords, and stood on the bow and stern of the ship on both sides of the boat, observing the situation in the water with their backs to their backs.
As if Chu Chu held dragon scales in his left hand, he raised his bloody fingertips in his right hand and gently smeared the dragon scales, and in an instant, the dragon scales that were originally translucent were actually shining with a translucent red light, shining on the surface of the lake.
The waves in the water surged, light and shadow were everywhere, and many bands of unidentified objects under black pressure gradually approached their red wooden boat.
Yebai glanced at the lake, except for the surrounding wooden boat, the other waters had become clear, and said to Wan Ruochu: "Hold on to the dragon scales!"
As he spoke, Yebai had cast a spell to envelop the ship around it, like a giant net, binding the water monster in it. At the same time, Traceless was like lightning, flying around the ship, and everywhere it went, there was a clattering and slashing sound, and many sparkling dark green corpses in the water floated around the wooden boat.
On the other side, as if he had heard the words for the first time, he hurriedly put away the dragon scales, held them tightly in the palm of his left hand, and then waved his right hand, and the pink lotus weapon hit the water monster fleeing in the water like a meteor.
Of course, Wu Xiu's side was not idle, and as soon as Yebai's magic circle was arranged, he flew in mid-air, and flew with a double sword, and saw a lot of illusionary silver cold swords constantly shuttling in the water, and then, there were constantly screams from the sparkling monsters. Occasionally, one or two wanted to escape from the circle, and one by one they were fatally thrown by the lotus weapon.
In this way, in about half an hour, all the sparkling monsters in the circle were killed, and the red wooden boat was surrounded by a large area of dark green, all of which were the corpses of water monsters.
Yebai's left hand bent slightly, and he recited a mantra, and a large piece of dark green slowly disappeared into the sparkling water, like a ghost, and disappeared.
