Chapter 127: Nature and Instinct
The difference between the two is like a long-distance runner and a young child, and the disparity in strength comes out at once.
On one side is a huge pubic spider with slender limbs, with a string of phantoms with every movement, which looks like it has split into a large number of pubic spiders in an instant, which is dazzling, and on the other hand, there is a dwarf with short legs, who exhausts all his strength every time he runs, and his legs are so short that it looks like a huge meatball rolling around on the ground.
Danger aside, the scene looks a little comical. It's a pity that there is no audience here, otherwise you can make a lot of money just by pulling a big curtain and selling tickets.
Although the spider had a lot of fun, it is unknown how the dwarf cursed in his heart.
Where are ordinary mortals the opponents of strange beasts like Yin spiders, it didn't take long for the dwarf's pace to slow down, and his forehead began to sweat, and he was directly planted by the stone on the ground, and the cloth bag in his hand was thrown far away.
The spider was visibly unhappy with his performance, his mouthparts squirming rapidly, and constantly screaming as if to warn him that if he didn't run faster, he would eat him.
The poor dwarf could not withstand the intimidation of this strange beast, and immediately let out a wail and jumped up from the ground, and was about to run over and pick up the cloth bag and run.
Unexpectedly, a strong wind hit the back of his head, and the spider directly pulled his leg over. It was too late to say that it was too late, and the dwarf immediately rolled on a donkey to avoid the fatal blow, then rolled over and then rushed forward, as for the little beauty in the cloth bag, he could no longer care about it.
Without the drag of the cloth bag, the dwarf's movements were obviously much faster.
Seeing that the enemy began to run wildly again, the yin spider squeaked in excitement. I don't know if I'm tired of playing this routine, this time it didn't directly flash forward to block the other party's way, but waited for it to run out dozens of feet away before screaming and chasing it.
This chase and escape, and soon went far away.
"Thorn-"
The cloth bag was cut open from the inside, and the somewhat embarrassed girl came out of the bag with a hairpin, looking at the empty wilderness with some startaways.
Just now she heard it clearly in the bag, and knew what kind of beast the dwarf named Huo Laosan had encountered, so she concluded that the other party was more likely to be more than lucky. But the dwarf was so rude that she couldn't sympathize with him for his fate.
Li Sheng didn't show up for such a big commotion here, and this place was already some distance away from the place where she had found the Heavenly Spider Fruit before, so Tang Zixi guessed that either she was in other danger, or she had also gone very far. It's a pity that this place is empty everywhere, except for the same pile of rubble and a few small grasses that occasionally sway in the cold wind, there is no other reference, so she can't find the direction to go back.
She glanced up at the gray sky, trying to see something different in it, but it was in vain. Not to mention the common sun, moon and stars, not even a single dark cloud can be seen, and the whole space makes people feel extremely oppressive, but it is somewhat similar to the underworld she went to before.
Just as she was hesitating, an extremely strange voice came, and it didn't sound far away. The smell of danger began to waft through the air, and the faint smell of blood irritated her nerves, reminding her to get out of here.
Miss Tang weighed it for a while, but finally sighed, returned to the broken cloth bag, and took out a dirty little cloth bag from it.
There wasn't much inside, a worn-out string of beads, a talisman with a strange pattern, a dark cyan porcelain vase, and a rusty dagger.
This is the dwarf Huo Laosan who hurriedly threw it into the cloth bag while he was in chaos, and only explained that Tang Zixi had to keep it if he wanted to live, and he didn't say anything else, and he didn't have time to say anything about the situation at that time. Originally, she didn't plan to ask for it, but after thinking about it, she decided that she couldn't act rashly, compared to her own life, this 'yielding' is really not worth mentioning.
"Roarโ"
A deafening roar came from the front left, mixed with human screams and the sound of stumbling footsteps.
Tang Zixi stuffed the cloth bag into a crack in the stone, got up and looked around anxiously, according to her current situation, it was almost impossible to escape, and the only way to do this was to find a place to hide first.
But in the huge place, except for a few bare stone piles, there is not even a place to hide.
Fortunately, just as shadowy shadows began to appear in the mist, she finally found an extremely narrow hole under the rubble, just enough for her to stay. It's also thanks to her petite figure, otherwise she may not be able to get into it if she changes someone casually.
Almost as soon as she held the last stone in front of her, an unidentified object whizzed and flew over, smashing directly into the ground not far away, making a muffled thud. Before she could see what it was, a few more flew over, slamming into the ground not far away. With a roar, a huge figure appeared with a gust of foul wind, grabbed something on the ground and bit it down.
The clattering sound sounds crisp and rhythmic, with the occasional stinging sound. It sounded like she had seen those rough men drinking noodle soup and eating garlic at a roadside stall. It's just that this kind of mixed symphonic sound is a little weird here.
A gust of wind blew, blowing away a lingering gray mist, and also brought a scene not far away to Tang Zixi's eyes. The rich smell of blood was like a powerful catalyst, directly blowing away the doubts in her heart.
She was horrified to find that the beast had eaten a man. She could even see wisps of bright red liquid dripping from the cracks in the stones.
The sound of chewing kept coming, and she felt a churn in her stomach. Fortunately, the desire to win at this time prevailed, and she was not allowed to vomit on the spot. She covered her mouth with her hands, and tears began to appear in her eyes, which were unusually wide in terror.
At that time, Li Sheng specially warned her that those who would come to the depths of the Extreme Yin Land were insatiable, and they would take the blame for any fate, telling her not to do something useless without her own strength. At that time, she also agreed, but it was still a little unbearable to see the same kind being eaten by fierce beasts one by one.
When he saw that the beast had finished eating a man, he began to turn his gaze to a teenager again. Tang Zixi couldn't control it anymore and jumped out of his hiding place, raised the rusty dagger, and roared, "Stop!" It's a pity that she was too scared in her heart, and the sound she made was inevitably a lot weaker, and the chewing sound of the beast was too loud, not to mention the threatened beast, even the young man opposite her didn't hear her roar that she thought was very imposing.
The boy was at most twelve or thirteen years old, with fair skin and gorgeous clothes, and he looked like a son of a family. Perhaps it was because he was specially protected, unlike those who died with missing arms and legs, he was only a thigh bone that was crushed and could not move, but there were no other fatal injuries.
Don't look at this young man's appearance as a noble son, but he is very tough, watching his companion being eaten, he was stunned, neither screaming nor begging for mercy loudly, just biting his lip with a sad and angry face. He clutched a thunderbolt that he had bought with a lot of money in his right palm, intending to throw it out as the beast approached him. He thought with some despair that the operation had completely failed, and even if he could return alive, it would not end well, and it would be better to die here with those loyal subordinates, and maybe he could still give a glimmer of life to those who remained at home.
This young man with a mortal heart never expected that there were other people here, and it was a girl of the same age, at this time the thunder bomb in his hand had been thrown out, and it was too late to take it back, so he had to shout and reprimand the other party for flashing.
It's a pity that there is a tall beast between the two, so many of the movements of the two sides were not seen by the other party, he didn't know about Tang Zixi holding a dagger, and Tang Zixi didn't know about him throwing a thunder bomb, so he desperately gestured to him to stop yelling.
The next scene that stunned the young man appeared, the thunder bomb was indeed thrown into the beast's mouth as he wished, but not only did it not explode, but it was chewed by the beast a few times, as if it was disgusted that the taste was not very good, and then spit it out with a pop.
The young man could see clearly, where was the thunder bomb, it was simply an ordinary iron egg. This dramatic scene made him a little unable to react for a while, and he couldn't help but be stunned! He was stunned and suddenly felt a pain in his neck, which had been lifted up by the beast and stuffed directly into the mouth of the blood basin.
Tang Zixi said badly when he saw it, and he didn't care about anything else, so he directly pounced and stabbed it into the beast's foot, and shouted at the same time: "Poke it in the eye!"
She didn't expect this tattered dagger to hurt such a beast, she only hoped that this moment would give the boy a chance to survive. To her surprise, the tattered dagger pierced the sole of the beast's foot without much effort at all. The beast roared in pain, and directly threw away the young man in his hand and slapped the culprit at his feet.
"Flash!" the young man in mid-air saw clearly, and immediately alerted anxiously, and then fell to the ground and hit a broken leg, causing him to scream in pain.
Tang Zixi had long expected this to happen, and jumped away directly with one blow, so that palm just slapped a big hole in the position she was standing on, but it didn't hurt her at all.
But in this way, it became a situation where Tang Nuxia confronted the beast. The boy wanted to come and help, but his legs were broken, and he couldn't do anything but be anxious.
