Chapter 80: The Scorpion King
The sword seemed to slash at the scorpion's right claw with a wail.
He didn't hesitate in the slightest, she didn't even have a chance to stop him......
Scorpion's blood is transparent, and the clear liquid is less likely to be noticed or valued than bright red blood, but that doesn't mean they don't have blood.
His sword and body were splashed with transparent blood.
"Hey, you're not afraid to defile your sword!" said Bell.
The moment Dugu Yan turned around, the giant scorpion had fled in panic.
Belltron was still looking at him, she was very happy, she felt that he was going to forget about Ruby for his own sake. But under that smiling face, no one could know the pain in his heart.
"Let's go!"
"Hmm. ”
Bai Ling stepped forward to follow, but before she could grab Dugu Yan's arm, a gust of wind blew and extinguished the torch in Dugu Yan's hand. The sound of messy and scattered footsteps came from the front again.
"What's the sound?" Belltron couldn't help but ask.
"If you hit the big one, the small one will naturally come out for revenge. Dugu Yan said.
"The big ones have all been defeated, but are the small ones more powerful than the big ones?"
"Yes. ”
"Huh?"
"Because there are many small ones, not ten thousand, but eight thousand. Bell, come on my back. ”
With her voice, Bai Ling climbed onto Dugu Yan's back, and Dugu Yan picked her up and rushed forward quickly.
Out of the narrow path, the outside suddenly became wider. Dugu Yan could have thought that if this place was as narrow as the inside, the giant scorpion would have suffocated to death.
It's wide now, but it's still dark. The unevenness of the road surface should be caused by the giant scorpion crawling and breaking the originally smooth stone surface. The ground was full of palm-sized scorpions, and Dugu Yan stepped on their bodies and continued to move forward.
Inadvertently, he was stung in the leg.
The palm-sized scorpion is not small, except for the "old monster", is there a scorpion in this world that can grow as big as the palm of the hand?
Big scorpions have big toxins, or they have more venom than ordinary scorpions, so it will hurt more after being stung by it, and even Dugu Yan, who is not afraid of life and death, is so painful that he "oops".
He didn't stop, because as soon as he stopped, these guys would pounce on him like crazy.
On one side of the road was a swamp, and Dugu Yan couldn't concentrate on the road conditions because of the pain, so he stepped into the quagmire and fell heavily.
He hurriedly put his hands on the ground and got up from the ground. But just as he was about to get up, he received another stitch to his left and right hands and chest. This time he didn't scream because he was used to the pain.
Fortunately, Belltron was not stung, otherwise she would have been hurt to death.
If you look at the proportions, the strength of insects is amazing. These assembled scorpions are only afraid that there are more marching ants in the jungle, and if the strength can be gathered together, they can easily bring down an elephant.
The scorpions gave Dugu Yan great resistance, and they arranged up one by one in a premeditated and organized manner, forcing Dugu Yan to the depths of the bath. Fortunately, Dugu Yan is fast enough, otherwise he will definitely die.
Fortunately, after the giant scorpion was cut off with a claw, it was too frightened to show its head, otherwise if it made a move now, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Brother Dugu, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, it's not that easy to die. ”
He straightened his waist and jumped up, his head pressed against the roof of the cave, and suddenly a hole was made, and blood flowed everywhere.
He didn't even think about it, and continued to walk into the darkness.
The scorpions on the ground were gradually decreasing, and he had jumped out of the encirclement of the scorpions. But he still didn't dare to slack off, the pain in his hands, feet and chest reminded him of the danger all the time.
He groped in the dark, and the torches were long gone.
The breeze blowing in front of them was the morning breeze of the next day's dawn, and they had been in this cave for a day and a night, and the bell's stomach was rumbling. Dugu Yan was never hungry, but he didn't have a choice.
The faint light made them all a little relieved.
"The exit is right in front of you. The pain made Dugu Yan's voice change.
Bai Ling said: "You put me down, there are no scorpions in front of you." ”
Dugu Yan nodded and put her down.
Bai Ling just wanted to say something grateful, and then help him check the wound, but before he could speak, Dugu Yan had already shown his sword again. As the cold light shot out, a terrible laugh came from the opposite side, and an old voice said, "There are no scorpions in front of you?" No, no, no, no, the real big scorpion is still here." ”
At this time, they could already faintly see that less than ten zhang in front of them stood a burly man, who was holding a steel structure in his hand, and behind the hook was a long chain. His body is in the backlight, so his facial features are not very clear.
Dugu Yan said: "You are the King of Medicine Scorpions?"
The burly man on the opposite side said: "Yes, you can come here, it seems that you do have some ability, but having ability does not mean that you can live, it seems that you are not lightly injured!"
Dugu Yansen looked at him coldly, he didn't rush to attack, and he didn't want to make peace. Whether or not to make a move depends on what the Medicine Scorpion King says next.
The Scorpion King also looked at Dugu Yan, and he saw that Dugu Yan's legs were trembling and he was holding a sword, but he was not in a hurry to attack. There may be two reasons for not attacking: first, he wants to see what others mean, whether they are friends or enemies, and second, he is not sure of victory.
The Scorpion King laughed and said, "You call me the Medicine Scorpion King, and everyone here calls me the Scorpion King." If you ask me, you should know the price. ”
Dugu Yan said: "No matter what kind of price, I can afford it." ”
"Yo-he!" the Scorpion King was very surprised when he heard this, and said, "Is that really the case?"
Dugu Yan said: "That's right. ”
The Scorpion King narrowed his eyes, swept his gaze over Bai Ling's body, and nodded: "Well, the goods are not bad, who do you want me to help you kill?"
Dugu Yan said: "I want to know where this cave leads first, and secondly, I want to borrow something from you." ”
The Scorpion King said: "This cave is full of strange things, with moving corpses and scorpions that can understand human speech, I call it the Scorpion Cave. Of course, what I said about the strangeness is the line of defense I have set up, because in this Ten Thousand Poisons Cave in the Western Regions, there are only three roads to the outside world, and one is the Heavenly King Road controlled by Lord Tianchan. The other is the road of the king of the earth guarded by the spider king and the centipede, and the last one is the road of no return for the snake and scorpion. ”
"It seems that this is indeed a good Ten Thousand Poison Cave. ”
"Not bad. ”
"The troublesome medicine scorpion king, take out the treasure of your religion, the Heaven Snatching Technique, and borrow it from the villain to take a look. ”
Dugu Yan's face was kind and moist, with a thick smile on his face. He knew he wouldn't borrow, but he still had to say it.
For the Scorpion King, these words are even worse than scolding his mother. This is disrespectful to him, and it is also disrespectful to the Cult of the Emperor.
But these words, Dugu Yan must say, this is the difference between a gentleman and a villain.
If the Scorpion King really obediently took out the "Heaven Snatching Technique" and gave it to Dugu Yan, he wouldn't have to kill anyone. It's also a good thing not to kill people.
Although he was well aware that the chance of the Scorpion King being obedient was as small as close to zero percent. But there is still a glimmer of hope.
If he suddenly made a black hand and sanctioned the Scorpion King, maybe it would indeed be a lot less troublesome, but this is Dugu Yan's character, he will not use despicable means unless he has no other way.
After hearing this, the Scorpion King was so angry that he scolded: "What? I see that you are fucking looking for death! Wait for Lao Tzu to kill you first, and then slowly enjoy the little girl behind you." ”
He said that the chains in his hands had been folded, and a battle of life and death was inevitable.
