A familiar black shadow appeared in front of Yao Chu again.

Yao Chu looked at it and smiled, isn't this the turtle that ran away from his hands, he can still meet it here, he met this turtle twice in one day, this is fate.

"This is providence!" With a malicious smile, Yao Chu approached the turtle again, this time he couldn't let it run anymore!

At this time, the wound on the turtle's body has almost healed, the brown scab has solidified, and even some of it has begun to fall off, presumably it will be completely healed after a while, thanks to this Tianhe with rich aura, otherwise this turtle's injury would not be so fast.

But after a while, the turtle's back began to carry stones again, this time it was not as big as the last time, only a few skull-sized stones, and it was still rolling a few times, which made the turtle's movements and speed slow down.

But the turtle that has just experienced the cycle of life and death is still very vigilant, and any wind and grass will cause it to be alert, and it will stretch out its long neck to observe around at any time. Even the fluctuations in the current caused by a small fish can attract its attention.

It seemed to have eaten at last, and looked around vigilantly, noticing that there were no living creatures. So he dived deeper into the darkness.

The fishing line controlled by Yao Chu slowly followed behind it, waiting for the opportunity.

But this time, the turtle seems to be extra cautious, looking around every once in a while, and no living thing will continue to move forward. And if a creature exists, it will fall silent and motionless, even if it is a small fish and shrimp at the bottom of the food chain.

Yao Chu, who was following it, was even more curious, why was it so cautious? Is it returning to the lair?

Normally, their tortoise shells can withstand most attacks, and there are relatively few predators that can hurt them, so at least they shouldn't be so cautious when protecting their nests.

So what is it trying to hide?

Yao Chu patiently followed behind the turtle, slowly consuming time with it.

Crossing the peaks at the bottom of the river that almost reached the surface of the water, crossing the dark cracks that could not be seen, experiencing the ferocious fish that devoured an area, and encountering a large number of detours, Yao Chu followed the turtle physically and mentally, just to see what secret the turtle was hiding.

Yao Chu had already seriously felt the exhaustion of his mind at this time, although the strength of his soul blessed his mind, after all, it was still a distant area of perception for several hours, which consumed a lot of Yao Chu's energy.

But the worst thing is the fishing line, which takes several hours to detour everywhere, although the turtle is shrinking and shrinking, and the speed is particularly slow, for fear that other creatures will find it, but the time is long, and the distance should not be underestimated. Hundreds of feet of fishing line is about to bottom out!

At most, there will be another half an hour, and if the turtle does not reach its destination, Yao Chu will not be able to hold on.

But in the same way, the tortoise felt tired, and finally stopped, looked around for a long time, and finally swam towards a dark crack.

Yao Chu's spirit was shocked, it should have finally arrived. But when he looked closely, he saw that it was not a crack in the ground that he had passed by a few hours ago, and there was even a stalking fishing line that swayed at the edge of the crack in the ground.

Hey, this old turtle! is like a human spirit, and when I passed by before, I really didn't show my feet at all!

Yao Chu secretly gritted his teeth and followed the turtle into the dark crack.

Suddenly, even if he didn't have a sense of light, Yao Chu, who relied on this spiritual perception, sensed the coming of darkness, and a shadow couldn't be driven away in his perception.

He was shocked in his heart, and immediately knew that this was definitely not an ordinary place, especially after reaching the bottom, the miserable white fish bones all over the ground showed that this place was not a good place.

Yao Chu tried to keep up with the turtle swimming in front of him, but in the gloomy and dark underground space, Yao Chu, who was inexplicably affected, could only barely perceive a little movement of the turtle, and it was difficult to perceive it as clearly as outside.

Finally, not long after, the turtle in front of him stopped, Yao Chu was trying to stretch out a little sense to observe, but he could only vaguely perceive a little chill and a bone-chilling chill, but not only that, the inexplicable despair contained in it made Yao Chu almost lost.

The fishing line is over, Yao Chu can't move forward anymore, and he doesn't dare to move forward anymore.

Finally, after several hours of friction, Yao Chu slowly withdrew his mind from the fishing line and returned to the shore of the waves.

didn't have time to retract the fishing line, and a violent dizziness and brain swelling appeared on Yao Chu's body, leaning crookedly, just being hugged by Xiaoxi behind him.

Yao Chu rested in Xiaoxi's arms for a while before relieving himself, after all, the consumption was still not small.

When he opened his eyes, night was almost falling, and the remaining afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, and there were many fish carcasses around him, and it was obvious that Konishi had protected his safety in the battle of wits and courage with the turtle for several hours.

"Konishi, thank you. Yao Chu stood up with his forehead and thanked Xiao Xi.

Although it is just some fish that are not a big threat, it may be a lot of pressure for the young master Konishi, who has almost no combat experience.

But to be honest, Yao Chu really didn't know what Xiaoxi's strength was, he only remembered the scene when Xiaoxi was scared and cried before...

Forget it, as long as you can protect him, you don't need to know his strength for the time being. Of course, at least today I am protected by the fact that I should not be happening.

"It's fine. Konishi raised his eyebrows in a rare way, smiling.

Today's dinner was very simple, and Yao Chu stewed a fish casually.

But Xiaoxi didn't dislike it, and still ate very deliciously.

"Now, Xiaoxi, how do you say that people can stay in the water for a long time?" Yao Chu suddenly asked an abrupt question.

Konishi raised his head and finally swallowed the food in his bulging cheeks: "Hmm... It seems that some martial arts can make people hold their breath for a long time, and there are other methods, I don't know very well. But the easiest way is to have a water-repellent bead that is completely able to breathe in the water. ”

"After all, if you enter the water, the most dangerous thing is the surprise attack, not the breath. Why do you ask this?"

Yao Chu smiled: "I found a place below today, there may be some good things, I'm going to go down and take a look." ”

He really wanted to go down and see, because the line wasn't long enough for him to see what was going on, but his instincts told him that it was definitely something extraordinary, and that there must be something good!

It may be a rare treasure location in Tianhe.

If you can get something out, maybe you can scrape together enough spirit stones for a sky-high price.

However, the first challenge is how to survive in the water. Although it is not a problem for a warrior to breathe for a while, he cannot go without breathing all the time.

Yao Chu's eyes lit up and he leaned over: "Xiaoxi, what is this water-repellent bead?"

"It is made of the pearl of a certain spirit mussel in the heavenly river, which can provide people with the air they breathe in the water. ”

"Tianhe is still quite dangerous, you haven't gone down to the river in person in the past two days, you may not know much about it, there are really a lot of dangers, do you really want to go?" Xiaoxi put down the dishes and chopsticks, explained, and asked Yao Chu again with a worried face.

"Of course it's true, I think the things in it must be very precious, and I may not be able to encounter them again in the future. Yao Chu said seriously, "So what kind of mussel is that?"

Xiaoxi still sighed and took out a thumb-sized bead: "I also have that water-repellent bead, give it to you, it's not a precious thing anyway." I hope the Tianhe here isn't so dangerous..."

"Uh-huh, Xiaoxi, I love you to death!" Yao Chu picked up Xiaoxi and almost kissed him.

Xiaoxi pushed Yao Chu away with a look of disgust, and then said calmly: "I hope you can come back alive." ”

It's not that he doesn't want to persuade Yao Chu, but he asked Yao Chu a question before, what do you think of inheriting the family?

Yao Chu's answer was that it was a burden.

This shows Yao Chu's attitude, he doesn't want to be restrained, and he doesn't want others to interfere with his decisions. Even though it's dangerous, it has to make sense.

Although Xiao Xi was reluctant to take the risk of Yao Chu, and was even willing to give the precious spirit stone to Yao Chu, Yao Chu still refused. He prefers to risk his own life to earn spirit stones.

Yao Chu will not be a person who dares to be the status quo, he will not spend the spirit stones given by others without any psychological burden, and he is not a stupid person, he will not do dangerous things for no reason.

In short, Xiaoxi had no way to stop Yao Chu, and there was no way to see through his heart and know his uneasiness.

They each lay on one side of the cave and were speechless all night.

The sky was slightly bright, Yao Chu quietly walked out of the cave, looked back at Xiaoxi, and finally left resolutely.

Although last night's words were quite lighthearted, the danger was only known to Yao Chu. Perhaps one of his negligences would have made him one of the many bones at the bottom of the cave.

But he was a little unwilling, unwilling that he hadn't figured out more things in the mysterious exercises, unwilling to let his soul be devoured stronger and stronger, and unwilling to rely on the old dragon to protect himself.

His danger again and again is inseparable from the help of the old dragon, whether it is "Forging Dragon Decision" or inscription forging. What Lao Long said before is very reasonable, he can't rely on him all the time, he needs his own strength, he needs his own recognition. Instead of being protected in times of danger, there are people who are not afraid of anything at any time, and think that they have people in the background.

It has been said that when someone encounters danger, the mental will is the first weapon in the face of danger.

If you have been relying on others, is your spiritual will still your own?

What's more important is that his identity is to impersonate the previous Yao Chu and replace his physical body, so whose will is his will?

He didn't know, he was a little confused, which was difficult for others to understand and couldn't admonish.

So he needed an adventure, a life-threatening adventure, and in the most urgent moment of life, he might be able to figure out the truth hidden in the fog.

Yao Chu arranged a large array of inscriptions for Xiaoxi, hesitated for a moment, left a few words, and left.

Xiaoxi had already woken up when Yao Chu got up, and looking at the back of Yao Chu leaving, his heart throbbed, as if he would never see each other again after leaving this time.

He slowly walked out of the cave and saw a few words carved on the stone wall by Yaochu, silent.

"There is a large array of inscriptions at the entrance of the cave, and if there is danger, you can retreat into it. ”

"There are also some spices and fish in the cave, and the cooking is just as I taught you last night. ”

"If you can't wait for me for a long time, then go back... Hope to see you again!"
