Chapter 163: Hibernation

Yan Toto's face was a little ugly, and he said bluntly: "I came today, I'm not here to listen to angry words, did you accept any benefits from the surname Zhu, how can you help him speak?"

Divine Doctor Xiao couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly let out a wry smile, only to feel that the young man in front of him was a child after all, even if he was promising, but after all, emotions were brought about by human beings, and they could not be changed because of cultivation.

"Don't you want a dog to bite Lu Dongbin who doesn't know the hearts of good people, although this surnamed Zhu is a nobleman of the previous dynasty, but now it is a change of dynasty, this is nothing, I accept his benefits to offend you, why? It's just that I live a long time and know more things, so as not to cause trouble for you, and kindly remind you." ”

Doctor Xiao said.

"Hmph! Even if Zhu Dahai's family is really a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, but now the down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, in Huling Village, I said that he is a worm, he can't become a dragon, but a bunch of mud legs, and you still use your cautious reminder, wouldn't it make me look down on my face!"

Yan Tuo said disdainfully.

"I can remind you not to mess around, this Zhu Dahai is the bloodline of Emperor Jianwen, about hundreds of years ago, there was a brother named Zhu Youmu who followed Emperor Jianwen into exile here, this Zhu Youmu later heard that he was taken away by an old monk, it is said that the old monk took a fancy to his extraordinary roots and bones, and took him to practice. If this person hadn't died, he would be an old monster now, if you bullied the family surnamed Zhu ruthlessly, when this person comes back in the future, and calculates the heavenly opportunity, your family will be miserable, you have to know how your father's position as village chief came about!"

Doctor Xiao said coldly.

"And this matter, why haven't I heard of it before, you shouldn't be lying to me!"

Yan Totuo said in surprise.

"What's the good thing about the old man lying to you, it's just that the ancestor used to be the lord of the city, and he left a lot of classics, and I love to read classics, so I know, for the sake of the relationship between you and me, remind you, it's up to you to listen or not!"

Doctor Xiao explained.

"Even so, I'm not afraid, don't say that I'm now a disciple of Chongming Island, and my status is noble, even some famous monks in the East China Sea have to give my master and ancestor face. How can it be so easy to cultivate immortals, hundreds of years have passed, if that person is really successful in cultivation, he must also be a virtual immortal, at least he must be the name of the three immortals and two elders, Zhu Youmu, I really haven't heard of it, if it doesn't turn into a pile of dry bones, it must be a nameless person, what am I afraid of!"

Yan Totu said contemptuously, but a trace of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, which still exposed his weakness. Doctor Xiao is a seasoned person, how can he not see his duplicity, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he didn't break it, and changed the topic and said: "Okay, you can decide for yourself, now let's talk about alchemy, it's still the old rule, you protect the Dharma for me, and half of the Dan will be one and a half after the Dan is completed." ”

Yan Tuotuo nodded, and the two of them left the secret room and came to the Dan room, without mentioning alchemy.

Three hundred miles away from Si Ming Island, there is an archipelago that stretches for hundreds of kilometers.

In fact, the "islands" in these archipelago are not so much islands as larger reefs.

The archipelago, which stretches for hundreds of kilometers, is made up of jagged reefs, without any vegetation on them, and naturally there are no human activities here, and the perennial dense fog is shrouded in extremely barren.

But it has a nice name, called the Conch Islands, because in this archipelago, there is a relatively large, decent island, this island is all composed of coral and conch shells, the area is very large, the diameter is about dozens of miles in size, there is a mountain peak shaped like a conch on this island, it looks like a magnified conch standing from a distance.

This is where the name of the Conch Islands comes from, and this strange-shaped island is naturally called Conch Island.

At this time, on the top of the peak of this conch island, in a hidden crevice, Zhu Dahai was holding his breath, his eyes unblinking and looking at a cave not far from his sight.

This cave is very large, carved along the cliff, about dozens of zhang in diameter, there are some green vegetation growing on both sides of the cave, it seems to extend very deep inward, even if there is sunlight there, you can't see the situation inside, it is dark.

This is the nest of the demon eagle, Zhu Dahai has been dormant here for more than a month, he has basically figured out the law of this demon eagle now, and he only needs to wait for an opportunity to come.

Don't look at his five big and three thick, but his mind is delicate, and he plans before acting.

He risked his life to come to this conch island, and climbed this mountain, found the nest, and did not immediately go in to pick the wisteria root, the demon bird is not comparable to the ordinary bird of prey, this is the existence that can kill the immortals, if it finds itself will die.

This demon bird is extremely intelligent and tyrannical by nature, once it finds some clues that outsiders have invaded, it will keep hovering in the air until it finds the enemy. In this month, he saw that a sea python inadvertently broke into this place, and was immediately discovered by the demon eagle, even if the sea python immediately slipped into the sea, but was still killed by the demon eagle.

Zhu Dahai came by coincidence, when he first came here, the demon eagle went out, due to a heavy rain, Zhu Dahai hid from the rain in the gap in the mountain wall, and the smell of his body was washed away by the heavy rain, so he was not discovered.

Later, when he saw that this demon eagle was so sensitive and vigilant, he became more and more afraid to come out, without being completely sure, he would not enter the cave, and there was only one chance.

However, after dormant here for nearly a month, he really figured out some of the rules of the demon eagle haunting, and the conch islands will have a heavy fog every ten days, and the entire archipelago will be shrouded in fog, and the fog will last for two days.

Usually at this time, the demon eagle will go out to hunt, this flat-haired beast has a great appetite, and every time it comes back, the prey it brings is a huge sea python, seal or jellyfish or the like, and it will take three days to come back, this is his chance.

Zhu Dahai first saw this demon eagle go out, and he didn't dare to act rashly, but then he saw it like this three times in a row, and he knew that this must be its habit, today is the fortieth day of his coming here, if nothing else, the fog will rise in a while.

As soon as the eagle comes out of its lair, he will go into the cave to pick wisteria roots, and then go down the mountain to go home. This time is completely sufficient, and after three days, the demon eagle will come back, and even if it is thunderous, he will not be found.

When it was noon, a heavy fog surged up on the sea, becoming thicker and thicker, and in a short time it covered the entire archipelago, and it was so white that it was impossible to distinguish between the east and the west.

Even if the demon eagle's nest was close at hand, at this moment, Zhu Dahai was blurry when he looked over, and he could only see some outlines. This dense fog contained a great deal of moisture, and in an instant, the cracks in the mountain wall where he was hiding were all wet, and Zhu Dahai's head and clothes were all soaked, and it was extremely uncomfortable to be wet and greasy, but fortunately, he had become accustomed to it in the past dozens of days.

Zhu Dahai held his breath and waited patiently, the more he was at this juncture, the calmer he became.

After about half an hour, I saw that the fog in front of the cave suddenly surged violently, as if there was a strong wind stirring, the fog was instantly dispersed, a loud eagle cry of broken gold and stone resounded through the world, only to see a huge size, about three feet high golden eagle eagle appeared at the entrance of the cave, a pair of golden sharp eyes exuded an invincible momentum, first vigilantly looked around, saw that there was no abnormality, then kicked hard with both claws, spread its wings and flew towards the sky, the eagle cry gradually went away.

Zhu Dahai's heart was excited, but he didn't leave immediately, but continued to hibernate, and after half an hour, he estimated that with the speed of this beast, it should be far away from here, so he climbed out of the gap in the mountain wall without hesitation, and quickly ran towards the cave in front of him, and his heart jumped violently.
