Chapter 19: The Rusty Knife
Because of the age, the handle of the knife was covered with moss, and it was very slippery, and I almost didn't grasp it steadily.
The strong wind behind him was blowing, Lin Ze twisted his body, and with the strength of his body swinging, he pulled out the long knife inserted in the ground, and regardless of whether the blade was sharp or not, he slashed behind him with his backhand.
With a soft sound of the bell, the blade slashed directly on the forehead of the green crocodile, and exploded with strong force, not only chopping the green crocodile back a step, but also making Lin Ze take a few steps back, almost falling directly.
The green-skinned crocodile's forehead was cut open by a long knife, and a little blood oozed out.
The rusty body of the knife was also stained with a little blood, but he didn't see it, the blood was quickly absorbed by the blade, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The green-skinned crocodile seemed to have been slashed by a knife, lying on the spot, his eyes full of horror.
Lin Ze didn't notice this, and raised his knife to slash again.
The green-skinned crocodile didn't react at all, and was slashed again, this time the power of the knife seemed to have increased, and it directly split the opponent's head.
Lin Ze was slightly stunned, and then he was overjoyed.
"I really picked up a treasure this time. ”
Maybe I was too happy to notice a strange place, where the green crocodile was chopped by the long knife, there was no blood flowing out, and the black light emitted by the blade was slowly converging.
Soon, the red light also converged into the blade and disappeared.
At this time, if you look at the long knife, everyone will think that this is just a rusty ordinary stainless steel long knife.
Pulling out the long knife, Lin Ze began to collect the heart blood of the green skin crocodile, but strangely found that the heart blood had long disappeared and disappeared out of thin air.
"What's going on, why is there no blood in the heart?" Lin Ze only noticed at this time that the blood in the body of the green-skinned crocodile, including the blood in the heart, had all disappeared.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with a reason, so Lin Ze had to give up, peel off the skin of the green crocodile, roll it up, and carry it on his back.
Because all the blood was gone, the crocodile skin did not smell bloody.
"Whew, it's time to leave. "After being chased by the green crocodile for so long, once I relaxed, the feeling of exhaustion came to my heart.
Cheering up, he walked back with his long knife, ready to find his way back to the ground.
He didn't look at the ground where the knife had been, and if he did, he would have been shocked, there was a dried corpse, a dried corpse of an animal.
Just about a moment after he left, the originally shriveled corpse suddenly moved.
After another quarter of an hour or so, the dried corpse slowly rose from the ground, like a piece of paper, swayed in the wind to the corpse of the green crocodile, and burrowed through the place where the chest and abdomen were broken.
The next moment, the flesh of the green-skinned crocodile shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just a moment, it turned into a dried corpse, and then with a bang, it turned into flying ashes and dissipated.
At the same time, a staggering figure stepped out of it.
"I am really blessed with a great life, so I don't die......"
Lin Ze naturally didn't know anything about these, and he had already found a way out at this time.
A day later, Lin Ze drilled out of an underground crack and returned to the surface.
After checking his surroundings, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's the periphery of Misty Soul Mountain." ”
The four tasks he took were all completed, and after coming out of the underground crack, he did not stop, and immediately left quickly in the direction of the cave canyon.
The closer he got to the cave canyon, the smaller the probability of a third-order demon beast appearing, so he simply ran all the way, and it only took half a day to come to the vicinity of the corpse of the third-order demon beast back armor lizard.
Just as he was about to get closer to check it out, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
The surrounding traces were very messy, but around the pit where Wang Mian's body was, there were actually a few unfamiliar footprints.
As long as a martial artist's cultivation reaches the strong body realm and walks on the soft soil, he will not leave footprints, and there are only two situations that can leave footprints, one is that the person who has left footprints only has the cultivation of the strong body realm, and the other possibility is that the person stays in place for at least ten breaths.
This made Lin Ze immediately raise his vigilance, and he had a faint bad premonition in his heart.
Just counting the time, Lin Ze turned around and left, not choosing to go back from the direction he came.
When he came, he arranged a large number of formations on the road, and after these days passed, he would definitely capture a lot of demon beasts, and they were all abandoned by him.
No matter who left the footprints, it was a matter of the seventh-level medicinal herb Blood Cherry Fruit, and he was not prepared to take this risk.
Another day later, Lin Ze appeared at the entrance of Longjiao Mountain, looking at the endless grassland in the distance, he exhaled a long breath of turbidity again, as if in another world.
"You're not dead?" An abrupt and startled voice sounded behind Lin Ze.
Lin Ze turned around and looked, five people appeared behind him, his eyes fell on the person who took the lead, he was also stunned for a moment, and said secretly in his heart: "It's such a coincidence." ”
"Hello, big brother!" Lin Ze immediately put on a bright smile, revealing two rows of white teeth.
"Hmph, your life is really hard enough, you actually took the task of the poisonous wolf in the later stage of the strong body realm, and you can come back alive. The man who took the lead said in a cold tone.
This person was none other than the black-faced man Lin Ze had met twice in the mission hall.
Hearing his words, Lin Ze's face showed a wry smile and said, "I met four poisonous wolves, but fortunately, I was lucky and barely completed the task. ”
The man didn't speak, and walked straight past Lin Ze.
The other four, three men and one woman, only the woman smiled at Lin Zewan, her smile was gentle and bright.
"The strength of these people is so strong!" When these people walked out of a distance, Lin Ze thought in his heart.
When I was in the mission hall, I didn't feel that now these people had just come out of the Dragon Horn Mountain Range, and the murderous aura on their bodies had not completely dissipated, and it was especially obvious.
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from a distance, and a horse-drawn carriage came galloping, driven by a strong man about forty years old.
"Boss. The middle-aged strong man driving the car shouted at the black-faced man.
The black-faced man nodded, and when the carriage stopped, everyone got on.
At this moment, a low cry sounded, "What are you doing in a daze? If you don't get into the car, do you want to walk back by yourself?"
Lin Ze was stunned for a moment, and then saw that the woman poked her head out of the carriage, beckoned to him, and motioned for him to come over.
He didn't know what was going on until he boarded the carriage, but he sensed that these people had no ill will towards him.
"Our boss is this temper, cold on the surface, but in fact he is an extremely warm-hearted person. The woman said with a good-looking smile.
"Xiaorou, talk a lot!" the black-faced man snorted coldly, his eyes narrowed, he leaned back in the chair to recuperate, and stopped talking.
