Chapter 223: The Imprisoned Ox Koi and the Spirit Tortoise
In the setting sun, Ning Baifeng glanced back, and the barrage was blocked by the mountain cliff and disappeared.
The mountains are far away at dusk, and the light boat crosses the heavy mountains.
The rain boat stopped at a water nest in the bend of the Tianxu River, the spirit turtle Yuantai was floating in the water nest, and Nie Hongzhu was standing on the back of the turtle, confronting several demon spirits.
A black python, a multicolored koi, and a captive cow.
It is far away from the barrage, and it is not too far from the upstream Xilong Beach, and the location is just right for walking the river.
The sudden arrival of the rain boat broke the confrontation between the two sides.
When Nie Hongzhu shouted out to the rain boat, the giant python looked at the two people on the boat with a cold gaze, and his head immediately raised, and then suddenly entered the water and went upstream.
Gong Quan looked at the two demon spirits who did not escape, his eyes fell on the prison cow, and he was extremely surprised and said, "It belongs to the dragon"
Ning Baifeng is not the first time to see Jiaolong, as early as when Lei Peng crossed the boat, Liu Yunlang had slaughtered the dragon in anger, and had a dragon head banquet afterwards, and afterwards he specially found a book about the genus of Jiaolong, so he was not unfamiliar with Jiaolong's appearance.
All dragons in the world today are not true dragons handed down from ancient times, but dragons, that is, they are attached to the meaning of dragons.
But its bloodline is far beyond that of Jiao, and it already has some power of a true dragon.
The appearance of this demon spirit is very similar to the dragon that has been passed down from the world, except that the two horns on its head are black and thick buffalo horns.
Therefore, the palace power will be called a dragon.
There are many things that go to the river in the Tianxu River, but it is extremely rare to belong to the dragon.
Hearing the shout, the prisoner cow looked at Yuzhou with interest, and spit out an extremely clear voice from his huge head, "Qingdu Gongquan"
This time it was Gong Quan's turn to be confused, and he had never met before, how to know his name.
While Ning Baifeng was guarding the prison cow, his eyes did not leave the colorful koi, which was dozens of feet long, and its two golden fish whiskers were no less than its body, constantly shaking like two long whips, stirring the water in all directions, attracting people's attention.
The Prison Ox swam backwards, let go of the persecution of the spirit turtle, and said, "Fortunately, you didn't wait in vain, you are finally here." ”
"Wait for me" Gong Quan was surprised at first, and then locked his eyebrows in contemplation.
He was not surprised by the waiting of a dragon, he fished countless times on the Tianxu River, and even caught Jiao in the Hidden Dragon Abyss, and Qingdu also had two dragons, so he was no stranger to this kind of spiritual creature with high intelligence.
At this time, the dragon is blocking the way, let alone waiting for him, and things must not be so simple.
Gong Quan asked in a low voice, "How did you know I was coming here?"
The Prisoner Bull said, "I first heard the transmission between this spirit turtle and its master, and then I heard your conversation during the Great War, so I am waiting for you here. ”
Ning Baifeng was slightly surprised, and then suddenly realized.
Books record that the prison cow has a good rhythm, and its ears with a dragon head and snake body are very good, and it can distinguish the sound of all things.
But I didn't expect to hear the voices of others on the lake of hearts.
The dragon already has some power of the real dragon, and it is true.
Prisoner Niu continued, "I want to make a deal with you. ”
Gong Quan frowned, looked at the prisoner cow carefully, and said, "Qianlong Yuan"
Prison Niu nodded, "Yes, I have been trapped in the nest for hundreds of years, my aura is almost exhausted, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that I am in this situation now, so I can only seek refuge, and in the territory of Wushan, there is nothing more effective than the shelter of Qingdu." ”
While talking, the colorful koi in the water slowly retreated and dived.
Ning Baifeng waved his hand, and a sword flew out and stuck in the water behind the koi, and the tip of the sword was immersed in the water.
The koi immediately stopped, and the golden whiskers shook gently, spitting blisters in their mouths.
Gong Quan smiled and said, "It's really strange for a dragon to pat on the back, tell me what I have."
Advantage. ”
The prisoner Niu had expected it and said, "After crossing the Dragon Gate, I will live in the Qing capital for a hundred years." ”
The demon things in the world have crossed the dragon gate, and even if they advance, they can only become the genus of the dragon.
It belongs to the Dragon Leap Dragon Gate, obviously wanting to go further.
Ning Baifeng thought to himself that this thing was so ambitious.
Gong Quan laughed and said, "You can't make me a three-year-old child."
The prisoner cow asked rhetorically, "What do you want?"
Gong Quan said, "One egg, three scales live for a hundred years"
The prisoner bull said angrily, "Wishful thinking"
Gong Quan said contemptuously, "It's hard to protect yourself, what qualifications do you have to talk about conditions?"
There was an instant silence on the river.
The conversation between the two was fast and urgent, and although Ning Baifeng was listening, he didn't think much about it, always paying attention to the movements of the red carp.
After a long time, the prisoner cow said a little tiredly, "It's really a strong dragon that doesn't suppress the head snake." ”
When he decided to stay and wait for the people of Qingdu, he was already prepared, the reason why he still had to negotiate was just a fluke, and even the worst plan he had thought about, although the conditions for living for a hundred years were a bit harsh, but after all, they did not exceed the bottom line.
The people of Qingdu acted rightly, and the prisoner cow was secretly relieved.
Gong Quan instantly looked like a general who had won a battle, laughed and said to Ning Baifeng, "Bring the wine"
Ning Baifeng didn't move, stretched out his finger and pointed to the river, and said, "It's not too late to drink later." ”
The multicolored koi carp wagged its whiskers and tails gently, as if they were ready to flee at any time, but there was a sense of struggle in those eyes.
Spirit Tortoise Yuan Tai floated on the surface of the water and did not make a sound, and at this moment the old man's voice sounded, "Spirit Whisker, you really plan to be a good meal on someone else's plate."
The multicolored koi rolled its eyeballs, spit out the bubbles in its mouth, and said, "I don't want to put my life at the cost of others"
Among the demons, those who can speak are already little demons.
Yuan Tai lowered his head slightly and looked at the colorful koi, "Then why didn't you run away with the black python just now?"
The koi fish eye slowly turns.
The imprisoned cow, who had made up his mind, looked at the koi, felt a little sympathetic, and sighed, "It turns out that your name is Lingxuzi, if it weren't for the spirit turtle and the giant python and this girl, you would have been swallowed by me just now." ”
The koi twisted its body, turned to stare at the prison cow, and the golden whiskers at the corners of its mouth twitched like a long whip, and the waves splashed.
The fishtail swing suddenly touched something, and the koi looked back, but it was the sword blank that stopped the retreat.
Yi Prison Niu has just reached an agreement with Qingdu, and he will definitely not be on his side.
At this moment, it is already under siege.
The golden beard on the side of the koi's mouth slowly stopped, and then he looked at the two people on the rain boat, and said, "It stands to reason that I should also cooperate with Qingdu, but what you did just now is really chilling, I am afraid that you will put me in the pot after changing hands, think about it is better to get together with the old turtle to survive." ”
Gong Quan smiled dumbly, thinking that if he could live until now, no one would be stupid.
If this colorful koi is controlled by the Qing capital, it is very likely to become a plaything for raising and cutting whiskers.
The koi shook the golden beard on the side of his mouth, looked at the young man in white, and said, "The old turtle can be a servant for you, presumably your background is not small, let's listen to it, at least let me know if this backer is hard enough." ”
Ning Baifeng was just about to speak, his lips stiffened, then he turned his head to look at the palace power beside him, and only after a moment did he say, "Ding Sword Pavilion disciple, Ning Baifeng." ”
Just now he was about to open his mouth to reject the colorful koi, but Gong Quan Chuanyin stopped him.
The reason for convincing him was simple.
If the colorful koi leaves the city, it is very likely that they will not be able to cross the Dragon Beach, and it is better to be better than to be cheaper than others.
Ning Baifeng didn't speak before, but that didn't mean he didn't think about anything.
The koi didn't flee like a giant python for the first time, probably because they wanted to be with the spirit turtle Yuantai
Cooperation, after all, once in Dongyang Lake, they joined hands to break through the matter of Dongwei Sect.
Secondly, presumably the koi fish also know that if such a big thing happens in the barrage, Xilongtan will become the first pass in Wushan, and they will definitely not let go of this opportunity to eat fatty meat.
That's why Koi's heart struggled so much before.
The atmosphere was frozen for a moment, and the koi didn't wait for the next step, and asked "It's gone"
Ning Baifeng said indifferently: "It's gone." ”
The corners of the koi's mouth immediately trembled, and he said, "Then I'm still"
The voice stopped suddenly, and the koi looked at the spirit turtle, and his whole body stiffened.
Ning Baifeng looked at Spirit Tortoise Yuantai and frowned slightly.
Gong Quan was a little puzzled.
Nie Hongzhu, who was standing on the back of the turtle, was thoughtful.
The prisoner cow, who had already reached an agreement with Gong Quan, suddenly stared at the young man in white with great surprise.
The moonlight is about to rise, the spring breeze is blowing on the river, and there is only the sound of the waves hitting the stone wall.
The prisoner bull lowered his head, stretched out his claws from the back of his neck, peeled off a palm-sized silver scale, and threw it in front of Ning Baifeng, "I see that Your Excellency's sword is not badly damaged, and it needs to be re-polished and opened, the hardness of this scale on my body is acceptable, and it can be used to sharpen the sword, if Your Excellency does not dislike it, it will be my gift to go to the river." ”
The demon spirit belongs to the river, there is a saying of scattering wealth, when I was in the Baimang River of Lizhou, I had encountered the gift of the white python Bai Liang.
The koi came back to his senses and immediately spit out a bead, "The young master is on top, and the spirit beard will obey in the future."
The change before and after is so fast, and even self-serving, is really a bit shameless.
Yuan Tai looked at Ning Baifeng and said, "Please also ask the young master not to blame the old slave for making assertions." ”
Ning Baifeng smiled bitterly and sighed, holding the bead in his hand.
The whole bead is the size of a thumb, and in the bright bead, there is a small koi swimming slowly.
Koi was afraid that the new owner would not know the goods, so he immediately explained, "This is my natal carp bead, when I cross the dragon gate, this thing is Lizhu, the young master only needs to drip blood on it, and we will be linked in the future, and I promise that if you let me go east, I will not dare to go west." ”
The pitch-black sword blank flew up from the surface of the water, swept between Ning Baifeng's fingers, and a red blood bead dripped onto the bead, and then slowly melted into it, and was swallowed by the small koi inside.
After a while, Ning Baifeng threw the beads back to the koi in the water.
As for this scale, Ning Baifeng didn't stretch out his hand.
Gong Quan smiled and said, "It seems that your kid is not just a disciple of Dingjian Pavilion, your kid is very temperamental to me, and he has a great kindness to me, I don't bother to ask about my identity, and making friends is expensive." ”
Then he stretched out his hand and took the scales, stuffed them into Ning Baifeng's hand, and said, "This saves me a trip to Jixian Peak, and it is most suitable to sharpen my sword with it." ”
Ning Baifeng pinched the scales, opened his mouth, and finally reluctantly stuffed the scales into his sleeve.
Seeing that the things were accepted, Gong Quan smiled and said, "Everyone is happy, people are old, they like such scenes, and there should be wine to help them enjoy at this time." ”
Ning Baifeng took off the wine jug on his waist and handed it over, beckoning Nie Hongzhu to get on the boat, and then sat on the side of the boat to catch up with the spirit turtle Yuantai.
This is the first time we have met since the separation outside Dinghai City, and naturally there are many things to talk about.
After Gong Quan drank, he took out a fishing rod and laughed heartily, "Qingliu wine has to be three fresh in the river, now the wine is there, and the moonlight is there, I will catch a few tails and come up with wine, and enjoy the moon with wine"
The koi fish wagged its tail and immediately shouted very doggedly, "No fishing, no fishing, just shout." ”
Gong Quan still threw the fishing rod into the river, and said with a smile, "My old man wants to eat fish, and I still need you to stay there, and the fishing picture is a happy word." ”
The koi fish was bored with themselves and spit out a mouthful of water bubbles.
In the moonlit night river, the spirits go around the boat, fishing, drinking, talking and laughing, like a landscape painting.
