Chapter 4: There is also a rat king
"Wake up!" Wufeng grabbed the rat's neck with one hand and slapped its face with the other.
Soon the mouse was woken up by the lack of wind, and when he opened his eyes and saw the two of them, he seemed to be a little flustered, and he was muttering something in his mouth.
"Senior brother, what is it talking about?" asked Wufeng as he looked up at Bai Xichen.
Bai Xichen glanced at him without wind: "How do I know! I'm not a mouse." ”
"Two brothers, spare your lives!" the mouse suddenly spoke, and the two of them were stunned.
"Yo! It turned out to be a talking mouse. Bai Xichen instantly became interested, squatted down and touched the mouse's head, and said: "I have something to ask you, you'd better answer honestly, otherwise ......" Bai Xichen looked at the mouse and said with a wicked smile, and then motioned to Wufeng to let go of the mouse.
The mouse sat on the ground and trembled: "That little brother's poison was not under me, it really wasn't from me, please let me go!" After the mouse finished speaking, he kowtowed to Bai Xichen a few times.
In fact, Bai Xichen probably guessed that if he really wanted to be poisoned, how could he be so troublesome!
"You don't have to be afraid! If you hadn't done it, we'd have let you go. ”
Hearing Bai Xichen say this, the mouse was much more relieved.
"Tell me first, how he was poisoned. Bai Xichen asked.
"I'm ......" The mouse looked inside the cave, looking hesitant, as if he was afraid of something.
Seeing that the mouse didn't speak for a long time, Bai Xichen smiled evilly and pulled the mouse's ear hard: "Do you say it?" Be careful that I roast you." ”
The mouse patted Bai Xichen's arm: "I...... I say, I say!"
According to the rat's confession, in addition to it, there is a rat king in this cave, the rat king has a cruel temperament, is famous in the demon world, and especially likes to eat human flesh. It's just that a hundred years ago, it was met by an old man who had ascended to the immortal law, so he used the formation to lock it in the cave.
"That means we can't sense your breath outside, that's why this formation?"
"That's right!" the rat continued, "that formation is only useful for the rat king, not for anything else. “
"I see!" Bai Xichen nodded, the person who can set up this kind of special enchantment has at least reached the realm of the earth immortal: "What about the poisoning? And why don't you leave this cave?" Bai Xichen asked again.
The mouse told the two that Liu Yan strayed into the cave that day and walked into the formation, so he was bitten by the rat king. As long as a person is bitten by the Rat King, if he does not detoxify for three days, he will become a half-human and half-rat, that is, the upper body is a rat and the lower body is a human. After becoming half-human and half-rat, after the others are bitten by him, they will become half-human and half-rat after three days, just like the plague.
"Then why did you help him detoxify?" Bai Xichen was a little puzzled.
"Since I was a child, my father and mother have told me that although we are demons, we must live in peace with humans. At this, the mouse suddenly began to cry, as if remembering something sad.
Bai Xichen shook his head and motioned to Wufeng to bring it up, he planned to go in and meet the rat king.
"Brother, can you please not kill it, it has a life-saving grace for me. ”
Bai Xichen waved his hand, but there was no response, he pulled out his sword and walked into the cave. After walking for a while, Bai Xichen entered a small stone gate, and just as he was about to step into the stone gate, a fire suddenly lit up inside, and a mouse the size of a cow was lying on the ground looking at him.
Seeing the Rat King, Bai Xichen was stunned in place, and he didn't dare to take another step forward.
The Rat King slowly stood up and licked his tongue: "I haven't tasted the meat of this immortal cultivator for a long time!"
"That...... Went the wrong way, sorry to bother. Bai Xichen never expected this Rat King to be so big, presumably the Dao Xing should be very high, and he planned to go back to Qianshan to inform his master before making a decision.
But the Rat King didn't give him a chance at all, and just as Bai Xichen was about to withdraw, the Rat King suddenly pounced on him. Seeing the situation, Bai Xichen hurriedly flashed to the side, and then drew his long sword. Maybe the rat king is too big to move, or maybe his path is not very high, and his speed is much slower than the mouse outside.
"Good boy!" the Rat King did not continue to attack, but turned into a human form and turned into a lewd old man.
Seeing the rat king who turned into a human, Bai Xichen's heart was cold. Generally, most of the monsters that can transform into human forms have been in the Tao for more than three hundred years.
"This king will have a good time with you today!" As the words fell, a white bone suddenly appeared in the Rat King's hand, and then flashed towards Bai Xichen. To Bai Xichen's surprise, after the rat king turned into a human form, his speed actually became much faster.
Bai Xichen hurriedly took his footwork to the extreme, landed on a backflip, and was almost hit by the white bone in the hands of the Rat King, but the jade pendant he was wearing fell to the ground and was trampled under the feet of the Rat King.
"What is this?" The Rat King picked up the jade pendant curiously, but when he saw the jade pendant, his face changed instantly, as if he remembered something, smashed the jade pendant to the ground, and said angrily: "The descendants of the Bai family!"
Seeing the jade pendant smashed to the ground, Bai Xichen's anger suddenly rose, this is the heirloom of their Bai family, how can this monster be desecrated.
"Today!, you must die!" As the words fell, Bai Xichen swung his long sword and stabbed at the Rat King.
The Rat King also picked up his bones with a fierce face and greeted Bai Xichen.
When Bai Xichen's sword was about to stab the Rat King, the Rat King suddenly spewed out a foul of stench from his mouth, and then took the opportunity to hit his Heavenly Spirit Gai. Seeing the situation, Bai Xichen hurriedly used his sword to resist the attack of the Rat King, but the Rat King reacted very quickly, and took the opportunity to kick Bai Xichen, directly kicking him out and hitting the stone wall.
Bai Xichen clutched his chest, and when he was about to stand up, the Rat King quickly flashed to his side and kicked him away again.
"Hahaha! The people of the Bai family are nothing more than that!" "The Rat King finally stopped attacking and stood in place and laughed at Bai Xichen.
"You put ......" Bai Xichen was halfway through his words, a mouthful of blood spit out, and he fell to the ground in an instant.
"This is dead?" The Rat King slowly walked to Bai Xichen's side and kicked his body: "Get up!
Seeing that Bai Xichen hadn't moved, the Rat King seemed to be a little panicked, and hurriedly put his hand on Bai Xichen's chest, and when he found that there was still breath, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking that he was locked up by an old man of the Bai family back then, causing him to not see the light of day for so many years, he didn't want Bai Xichen to die like this.
"Ahem!" Bai Xichen suddenly coughed twice and slowly opened his eyes.
"Wake up?" the Rat King was overjoyed, lifted Bai Xichen up, and then withdrew a few steps: "Come on!
Bai Xichen looked at the Rat King like a fool. I thought to myself, this can't be a fool, right? Don't you take the opportunity to kill him, and continue with him, aren't you tired?
Seeing Bai Xichen stunned in place, the Rat King thought that Bai Xichen was afraid, and hurriedly threw away the bones: "How about I let you make a move?"
"Okay!" Bai Xichen nodded, and was overjoyed in his heart: "It is worthy of being the Rat King! I will also admit that I died in your hands." ”
Bai Xichen was afraid that the Rat King would regret it, so he turned on the praise mode. The Rat King seemed to enjoy the Bai family's praise of him, and clasped his hands around: "Count you as acquaintances! ”
"That...... I have a request. ”
"You say!"
"Can you close your eyes? I'm afraid that a sword will stab you to death, and you won't be reconciled!" Bai Xichen said this because he knew that this Rat King must be arrogant.
Sure enough, when the Rat King heard Bai Xichen's words, his face turned white with anger, but he still consciously closed his eyes.
"Then I'm here!" Bai Xichen took out a rune paper from his body, quickly flashed it and pasted it on the Rat King's body, the Rat King instantly became immobile, and at the same time, his dantian was also sealed.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Bai Xichen hurriedly threw the sword in the air, silently reciting the swordsmanship mantra in his mouth, and the sword instantly divided into three swords, and stabbed at the heart, abdomen and heavenly spirit cover of the rat king at the same time.
