Chapter 6: Little Tom

The insect swarm kept approaching, and with the faint moonlight, Tang Chen gradually saw the whole picture of the black beetle. They have large mouthparts www.biquge.info eight arthropods under their abdomen, the tip of which is as sharp as a knife's edge, which is easily inserted into the trunk of a tree, and a line in the center of their back that divides the carapace in half and protects the relatively weak wings.

"Ding!"

The fork poked out and stabbed it on the back of the black beetle in front, making a sound of gold and iron. The black beetle could no longer keep its balance, fell from the tree to the ground, shook its head a few times, and began to move casually closer to the trunk with the swarm. This was expected by Tang Chen, even if there was a hard stone ground under the tree, and the black beetle protected by a hard shell would most likely not die if it fell.

The sound of "dingding" became more and more urgent, and the battle between Tang Chen and the black beetle swarm became more and more intense.

In order to stop the beetle, Tang Chen clamped the tree body with his legs, the whole person was on his feet, his head and down, and the blood was pressed to the brain. But now that he is in a Jedi, there is no way to retreat, so he can only endure the discomfort, and keep turning his body to knock down the approaching beetle.

His physical strength was losing rapidly, but Tang Chen didn't dare to reduce the frequency of calls slightly.

Despite his best efforts, the swarm continued to slowly approach him.

It can't go on like this!

Tang Chen suddenly put the two baking forks together and handed them to one hand, and the other hand waved out a red spiritual power.

"Fireball!"

The temperature of the fireball inspired by spiritual power was far from that of an ordinary bonfire, and everywhere it went, the black beetles turned into rolling gourds one after another, and more than a dozen beetles fell to the ground. However, the fireballs were only a quick solution, and the void they left behind was quickly filled by the swarm of successors.

Tang Chen continued to cast fireballs with a calm face, seven or eight fireballs in a row, consuming most of the spiritual power in his body.

All fireballs, falling in the same place.

Seeing the fireball burning on the tree, and the nearby insect swarms dodging one after another, Tang Chen's heart was relieved. He guessed correctly, although the fear of fire was not strong, but it was still somewhat intimidating, and the temperature of the flames attached to the trees was far less than that of the fireballs, but the insects had to crawl slowly through the fire if they wanted to pass through, and the black beetles that rushed to the flames obviously did not like to do that, and they all took a detour.

After the flames ignited, Tang Chen's defensive area was reduced by a quarter, and the pressure was greatly reduced.

Tang Chen didn't dare to continue to expand the area of the flames, if the trunk of the tree was burned off and fell under the tree, the situation would be unimaginable.

There is not much spiritual power in the body.

At this time, a baking fork couldn't take care of it, and the black beetle took advantage of the situation to attack again, Tang Chen hurriedly unfolded the two-handed fork technique, and made a sharp dial, only to ease the military situation slightly. In this way, he didn't even have time to replenish his spiritual power with spirit stones, he had to save his spiritual power, and when he saw that the flames on the tree body had become smaller, he had to send a small fireball to try to gain time.

Tang Chen's only thought now is that he hopes to survive until dawn.

Yesterday there was nothing to do during the day, maybe the bugs only came out at night. He needed to hold out for at least three hours, but now it seemed that he might not be able to hold out even half an hour.

"! brother is not afraid of you!" Tang Chen roared angrily, cheering for himself.

The black beetle couldn't attack it, and the sound of the mouthparts became louder.

In his busy schedule, Tang Chen saw out of the corner of his eye that beetles began to appear on nearby trees.

Tang Chen's face suddenly turned pale.

Although the trunks of the trees are not of the same genus, the upper branches and leaves are often intersecting, and even if they are not fully touched, the black beetle can easily fly over the last distance......

"I'm going to outflank it! Brother is going to be eaten meat today...... Retribution!"

He finally understood why there were no other animals in this forest, and the black beetle was simply incomprehensible.

Tang Chen didn't want to sit still, so he looked around to see if he could transfer to other trees.

Just then, he saw a cat.

A kitten.

The blue hair is like the sea, and the four claws are like snow, which is the delicious foodie who was with Tang Chen before. The kitten squatted on a tree branch, tilting its head and looking at Tang Chen curiously, as if unaware of the danger coming.

"Run! It's dangerous here! Run!"

Tang Chen struggled to push away a few black beetles and alerted the kitten. Seeing that the kitten had no intention of leaving, Tang Chen was furious: "Hurry up and run!

The cat stood up, and before Tang Chen could see the movement, the cat had disappeared between the branches, and then appeared in a higher place. The elegant figure jogged on the branches, accelerated, and finally kicked the branches with both legs, and the blue figure drew a graceful arc in the air, and immediately landed lightly beside Tang Chen.

"What are you doing here? Looking for death! Get out! Roll as far as you want!"

Tang Chen roared angrily, blocking the black beetle while driving the kitten away.

Some of the aggrieved kittens finally stopped being silent, "Meow!"

A scene that Tang Chen will never forget for the rest of his life appeared.

The tide of black beetles on the trees under his feet fell to the ground like dumplings, and several nearby trees did the same, as if they had all lost the strength to grasp the trees, and the scene was extremely spectacular. On the ground, the black beetles in the distance desperately fled, and the black beetles in the vicinity also seemed to be drained, lying on their stomachs and not daring to move, and it was obvious that their bodies were trembling. At the same time, the deafening sound of insects in the night sky suddenly weakened, and only black beetles were still chanting in the distance!

"This, this...... What did you do?" Tang Chen stammered.

"Meow!" the kitten's eyes were half-squinted, looking extremely disdainful.

"I'm scared to death!"

Tang Chen lay on the tree, no longer willing to move, let the double fork fall under the tree, he suddenly grinned: "Hero, let's be friends!"

Before dawn, the black beetle burrowed almost entirely into the rotting leaf layer and disappeared without a trace.

The black beetles within five meters of the kitten were not so lucky, they were still trembling, and they didn't even have the strength to escape, and the fierce species last night seemed to have nothing to do with them. The kitten used its front paws to flick the black beetle around it at will, and the black beetle that it dialed never moved again, and was scared to death!

Tang Chen was dumbfounded.

There are only two reasons to explain the current situation: either the kitten is the natural enemy of the black beetle, or it is the absolute suppression of the rank!

Tang Chen didn't know the black beetle, but the strength and aggression shown by the black beetle must not be low, if they didn't dare to move because they were absolutely suppressed by the kitten, how high was the rank of the kitten?

The kitten raised one of its front paws and landed on the back of a dead black beetle, and the carapace that Tang Chen couldn't pry open with a knife was easily scratched by it, revealing the golden flesh inside. The kitten kicked the situation, and the beetle that broke its shell rolled accurately in front of Tang Chen.

"Well done, boy!"

Tang Chen grabbed the beetle, used a knife, quickly picked out the meat in the shell, and put it on the dinner plate next to him. The size of a black beetle's fist, the meat that can be eaten is on the back, and a black beetle can only pick out two pieces of meat the size of a fingernail, but fortunately, there are a lot of black beetles that were scared to death by kittens last night.

"Meow!"

The cat responded, raising its tail triumphantly as it kicked a beetle with a broken shell.

"Let's change the way we eat today, how about boiling?"

"Meow!"

"Against, eating too much barbecue is not good for your health, at a young age, the taste is so heavy!"

"Meow!"

"This place is a desperate valley, and I don't know how long it will take to find my way out, and I don't have much spice with me. Now that the barbecue ingredients have been used up, what should I do if I want to eat them in the future!" Tang Chen was in a rather unhappy mood, not because of the kitten, after dawn, accompanied by the kitten, he spent half a day exploring the rest of the road, and it was initially confirmed that this was a desperate valley surrounded by peaks, and Tang Chen was naturally not happy.

"Meow!" the kitten tilted her head and thought for a moment, and was convinced.

"I don't know how long I'll be here, so I'll give you a name. ”

"Meow!"

"My name is Tang Chen, we are good partners, you have my surname," the young man rolled his eyes, "Let's call Tom." ”

"Meow!" the kitten didn't care, and lazily responded.

"I knew you'd agree. Tom!"

"Meow!"

"Tom!"

"Meow!" Little Tom stopped and looked at Tang Chen in confusion, he didn't understand how Tang Chen could be so happy that he rolled on the ground with joy. From Tom's point of view, Tom's tumbling seemed muddy, neither agile nor aesthetically pleasing, and he almost touched a plate full of beetle meat, which made Tom Jr. worried.

Although it is boiled, Tang Chen still prepared some dipping water, and the beetle meat is also quite delicious to eat, at least Tom is very satisfied, he has lived in the valley for so long, it has been living by eating black beetles, no matter how Tang Chen cooks it, the taste is much stronger than eating it raw. What made little Tom even more satisfied was Tang Chen's care for it, it was too difficult to dip it in the kitten, and it was Tang Chen who helped it complete this step and put the boiled beetle meat on its plate.

Little Tom understood this as kindness, what it didn't know was that Tang Chen was just trying not to waste the spices...... Since then, the kitten has never raised any objections to Tang Chen's food cooking method.

Tang Chen discovered that the black beetle meat contained rich spiritual power.

He didn't deliberately stimulate the spiritual power in the flesh, but after eating the meat, the spiritual power in his body was overflowing and swollen, and he had to meditate and breathe, and after meditating, he found that the spiritual power in his body increased even stronger than three days of meditation. The teenager who did not seriously study the knowledge of food refining did not fully realize how precious such an ingredient was. If it is put outside, such a good ingredient as black beetle meat will make all refiners excited.

Tang Chen loves food and life, he is unwilling to devote his precious time to cultivation, in his opinion, it is a complete waste, and his life will lose its luster from then on. He had always preached that cultivation was useless, but in fact, Tang Chen was still very envious of the long life of a high-level cultivator, and he had dreamed more than once that it would be a wonderful thing if eating spiritual food could quickly improve his cultivation.

If you are promoted, you will live longer.

Live longer, eat more!

Eat more!
