Chapter Twenty-Eight: Dhdhara
What do you want to do with Zhaocai?
Dig up the baby?
Certainly not.
With that thing's timid nature, there's no need to take risks while the giant scorpion is alive.
With doubts in his heart, Ye Ling stepped forward again with his sword.
He originally wanted to wait for the giant scorpion to get tired of tossing before attacking, but now that he took care of the life of the spirit mouse, he could only bite the bullet.
After running for less than ten steps, Ye Ling saw that the giant scorpion suddenly straightened up, as if it was suddenly frozen by a strong cold air, and even its claws were motionless.
"It's- I see!"
In a blink of mind, Ye Ling was all targeted.
Zhaocai didn't go to find the baby, but bit off the spinal meridians of the scorpion!
It's not that the scorpion doesn't want to move, but it's paralyzed, and its body doesn't obey the call!
The dragon elephant knife inserted in the side of the giant scorpion, as well as his own stiff legs, formed a perfect scaffold, so that the abdomen that was originally below was now like a standing target, in front of Ye Ling.
The quicksand beneath it was rapidly deforming, and it didn't last long.
"One word, break the sky!"
Ye Ling stepped forward with his sword and stabbed precisely into the spot of light gathered in his pupils.
For a while, Ye Ling saw the wound of the giant scorpion, and the aura poured into Ye Ling's body like gurgling water.
The scene began to blur, and the desert gradually transformed into a vast starry sky.
He saw that a young man with the same appearance and dress as himself was holding a beam of starlight long sword, flying up into the nine heavens, and cutting off the brilliant galaxy with one blow!
What a power this is?!
The Milky Way opened and burst out with hundreds of millions of lights, but that light could not take away the young man's hands
Ye Ling knew very well in his heart that even in his previous life, a War King at the peak of the Silent Annihilation Realm could only cut off one star with all his might.
Slash the Galaxy......
This power is exaggerated.
He wanted to pursue the figure of the young man, but suddenly felt a burning pain on his face.
"Idiot, what are you doing in a daze? The scorpion is pressed down!"
The gaze shifted again.
Ye Ling saw a black oppressive shadow coming, and the quicksand finally couldn't support the stiff corpse of the giant scorpion, and the heavy carapace collapsed.
Boom ——!
"It's dangerous, thanks to your reminder. Ye Ling patted the spirit mouse with his hand.
"Don't touch me, I'm covered in blood. Ahem...... What were you just wondering about?" asked the spirit mouse.
"It seems to be an illusion brought about by "One Word Breaking Heaven", and the body did not listen to me at that time. ”
The spirit rat Zhao Caiming didn't reply, it wasn't interested in what Ye Ling saw specifically, and it had already begun to peel off the loot at this time.
The tip of the hard giant scorpion's tail took only a few minutes to gnaw it completely.
"Thank you, take the risk and help me get it under control. Ye Ling walked over and said.
"When did you treat us so politely?, okay, don't talk about this, hurry up and help me dismantle this scorpion, the treasure of the whole body, don't waste it." ”
Ye Ling took a few steps back, looked at the huge body of the giant scorpion, and then looked at Zhaocai, who was covered in blood, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.
At this time, there was a melodious camel bell behind him.
After just two battles, Ye Ling habitually became vigilant, and Zhaocai instantly got into Ye Ling's pants pocket.
But soon, he noticed the camel caravan in the distance, the riders were wearing eye-catching orange clothing, and the bells on the camels' chests were also great exaggerations.
Directly below the bell, there is also a wooden sign with a word written in black lacquer: "Patrol".
Ye Ling was overjoyed and shouted at the camel team.
The remains of the giant scorpion were the best guidepost, and the group of people stepped up their speed and quickly rushed to Ye Ling's body.
They looked at Ye Ling, and then at the giant scorpion that had died tragically, with a look of disbelief on their faces.
The rider in the lead rolled down, frowning and stroking the scorpion's carapace.
"Little brother, this giant scorpion ...... You did it all by yourself?"
Strictly speaking, this giant scorpion was solved by Ye Ling and Zhaocai together, but Zhaocai was reluctant to appear in front of outsiders, so Ye Ling hugged his fists and said, "Exactly." ”
"The future is terrifying, it's really terrifying...... the future is terrifying" The team leader was amazed again and again, and respected the young man in front of him, and said, "Dare to ask the name of the little brother?"
Ye Ling smiled slightly and replied, "Under Ye Ling." ”
The simple four words made the team leader frown at first, and then his eyes flashed with a gleam, and he shouted: "You are Ye Ling, the lord of Yuyang City?!"
Ye Ling nodded, and untied his former city lord's waist card from his waist, "It's me, but I'm now stepping down and I'm no longer the city lord." ”
The team leader was excited, turned around and beckoned the other brothers to the ponies, knelt down and arched his hand: "Under the patrol captain Bazier, take a patrol team from Canglong City to participate in the Ye City Lord!"
Ye Ling was flattered, he didn't expect that his name would spread to the western frontier thousands of miles away.
"After the Ye City Lord took office, he carried out extensive cooperation with the cities in our western border area, and now the people of Canglong City are counting on the manufacturing industry, and the days are getting richer and richer, all thanks to your Ye City Lord!"
Bazir is a middle-aged man who is not strong, and he has been cruising in the sand sea all year round, and his face is full of deep ravines.
In his eyes, there was simplicity and perseverance that Ye Ling could not see in Yuyang City.
"Captain Bazil, get up quickly, I am no longer the city lord now, and I can't afford the captain's gift. ”
Ye Ling helped the captain up, and said, "Captain, can you send someone to transport this giant scorpion back?" I will pay, after all, the materials of this giant scorpion can be sold for a lot of money. ”
"Of course, of course, Brother Ye don't talk about money, you went out for a big disaster for our Cangyun City, we can't thank you too late!"
As he spoke, the smile on Bazier's face dissipated by three points, and he rubbed his chin and said, "Cangyun City is far away from the colony of the fishing scorpion, how could it suddenly appear here......
"Oh yes, Captain Bazil, I also found a corpse here. Ye Ling said.
"Corpses?!Show me!"
Ye Ling turned around and led Bazier towards the location of the boy's body.
But when he arrived, he found that the quicksand brought up by the giant scorpion had swallowed the boy's body.
After a few simple explanations, Ye Ling could only use words to describe the strange appearance of the boy's corpse.
At this moment, Bazir's brow furrowed even tighter.
"Dhara, the kind of death you are talking about is poisoned by Dhada. ”
Hearing this answer, Ye Ling nodded silently, the people of Cangyun City had indeed encountered this kind of thing a long time ago.
"Is this 'dhara' you are talking about a poisonous weed, or is it a poison?"
Bazir shook his head, "No, this is a kind of ghost in our Western Frontier legends. ”
He then explained that Dhadra means "vampire bat" in their ancient Western Xinjiang language, because every time the dead are shriveled and shriveled, as if someone has drained their blood, so the folk gave such a name.
Ye Ling never believed in this kind of mythical legend, in his opinion, everything has a cause and effect.
"In other words, the cause of death of these dead is not yet known, right?"
Bazier sighed, "Brother Ye, I'm just a patrol leader, I don't know much, so let's take you to the city lord and ask him to talk to you about this matter in detail, he is worried about this matter." ”
It was now noon, and according to the dead boy's will, he needed to go to the millstone factory in the evening.
This afternoon is just free.
With Ye Ling's consent, Bazier took Ye Ling back to the city first, while the others were responsible for transporting the giant scorpion back to the city.
