Chapter 301: Ninety Thousand Miles (25)
At this moment, Lao Li didn't know which piece of gravel he crawled out of, he was very embarrassed, and after hearing the words, he returned to the side of a few people dejectedly, bowing his head and saying nothing.
Ding Cong comforted Shuangyue a few times, and when he saw that the little girl was angry, he gave Chi You a look and asked him to watch and deal with it, but he pulled the round turtle towards the gravel beach.
Lao Li knew that he had done something wrong, but he didn't want to miss the opportunity to hunt for treasures, so he had to follow behind the round turtle with a frown.
Looking at the gravel beach under his feet, Ding Cong was actually in a trance, and remembered the scene when he joined forces to deal with Ying Long. The anger at Lao Li was only temporary, but in order to make him have a longer memory, Ding Cong still said to him lightly: "Lao Li, I remember how many keels you still have, right? ”
Lao Li was annoyed when he heard this: "I know that I am blackmailed, it's gone, it's gone, it's already in medicine, and it's in wine." Besides, who will you pay for? The spider? Hey, where did it go? You see, the creditors are gone, and you have to pay a ball!"
Ding Cong didn't look at him either, and said with a smile: "Who said that you paid for it, you want to pay it to me." ”
Lao Li was even more annoyed and said, "You don't have any treasures, why do you want mine?" Besides, why should I compensate you?"
Ding Cong sacrificed the weak water sword, and while repeatedly spinning the circle under him, he said: "You are embarrassed to ask, you have been buried, and you can't dig if you want to find something?"
Lao Li was speechless for a while, and had to nod helplessly and agree to sign this unequal compensation clause.
With the flicker of the long sword, Ding Cong's figure disappeared in place, leaving only a circular hole.
Seeing this, Lao Li admired and said: "Sure enough, it is a professional digger, admire and admire." ”
Seeing this, the round turtle also pinched and chanted a mantra, and its body was gradually enveloped by a layer of earthy yellow light, and then it fled down with force, and its body disappeared into the ground. The landmark also left no other traces, as if no one had existed before.
Lao Li couldn't help but giggle when he saw that the round turtle actually used the earth escape technique.
Shuangyue was comforted by Chi You for a while, her mood has improved a lot, and she doesn't hold a grudge against Lao Li so much. Hearing his laughter at this moment, he asked curiously, "Sister Lizi, what are you laughing at?"
"You'll know right away. Lao Li rubbed his stomach with both hands, and his laughter was about to break out.
It didn't take long for a soft pop to make a soft pop, and the round turtle came out of the ground with sparks on its clothes, and wailed, "Ripe, ripe, ripe...... Burn me~"
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the round turtle, Shuangyue also giggled.
Chi You sealed with one hand, condensed a pool of clear water and poured it on the round turtle, and said with a smile: "It's so hot down there, do you still dare to use the earth escape technique and want to turn into a roasted turtle?"
The round turtle shook off the water traces on his body and muttered: "Lao Tzu's ancestor is a bully, even if it is roasted, it is a tyrant, and it is a dragon species~"
Lao Li heard these words clearly, and couldn't help but burst into laughter again: "What about the dragon species, have you ever seen a dragon?"
The round turtle's face turned red, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to walk to Shuangyue's side and sit on the ground to be secretly angry.
Originally, Lao Li wanted to tease him a few more words, but found that a sharp whistling sound came from the hole dug by Ding Cong. Then there was a bang, and a black shadow flew out at high speed like a bullet out of the muzzle.
The shadow didn't fly far before it began to descend, drawing a perfect parabola in the air, and finally disappearing into the forest.
Lao Li was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked Chi You, "Do you see what it is?"
Chi You hesitated for a moment, and said uncertainly: "It seems to be a pair of dry bones in a trench coat." ”
Shuangyue stared at her big eyes and asked, "Sister Lizi, who is Gengchen?"
Lao Li thought it was funny, and sat on the shoulder on the other side of Chi You with a shaking figure.
Although Chi You frowned and was displeased, he didn't say anything, which was regarded as acquiescing to his unreasonable actions.
Lao Li sat on Chi You's shoulder and twisted a few times, and whispered, "It's not very comfortable." Then he briefly described Gengchen's identity as a dragon.
Shuangyue had long seen the pattern of a dragon, and he had known that it was a divine beast, but the real dragon had never seen it. At this time, when I heard Lao Li recount the scene when he met Ying Long, his eyes were full of envy.
Lao Li knew that there were many things that he couldn't say much, and besides, he was also making the little girl happy, and he exaggerated in many places.
Although Chi You didn't see Shuangyue's adoring eyes, he sensed her shortness of breath and frowned, "Lord Priest, be careful. ”
Lao Li pursed his lips and smiled, gave Shuangyue a look, and motioned for her to speak later. Shuangyue also reached out to cover her small mouth, nodded and smiled.
Chi You naturally knew about the small actions of the two, but now Shuangyue is very childish, and it will not disappear in a while, so she can only let her be happy.
Ding Cong reached into the pool and stirred it a few times, frowned, and said, "This is the first time I've seen this kind of awakening, why don't I have a reaction to spiritual power fluctuations?"
As a well-informed thinker among several people, naturally no one knew about his problems, and everyone else tacitly kept silent.
Ding Cong knew that it was a vain question to ask, so he had to find a comfortable place to sit down and wait for the round turtle to recover.
The four of them were sitting or standing by the pool, Ding Cong and Chi You were silent, while Lao Li and Shuangyue chattered non-stop.
The sky gradually brightened, and Yaochi Jinmu slowly approached the edge of the pool with a few maids, and when she saw that there were only four people, she couldn't help but show surprise.
"Wu Gang, why is there one less person? I don't know if the people who took the entrance examination have already entered the venue?" Yaochi Jin's mother showed some unhappiness in her tone, but the smile on her face did not change in the slightest.
Lao Li didn't have a good impression of this smiling little old lady, and he couldn't say why, but he felt that the way she looked at him was a little strange. So he said in an unkind tone: "Don't you see that there is another person in the pool?"
Yaochi Jinmu has a good identity, and she is not willing to compete with a girl, so she snorted lightly: "Hurry up and call out, there is still a long way to go from here to Kuidou Palace, don't be too late." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a bang, and the pool water gushed out like a fountain.
Ding Cong had already taken precautions, and a translucent light film stretched out like an umbrella, blocking the flow of water.
It's just that Ding Cong's light film did not include Yaochi Jin Mu and the others, so it made them relive the feeling of being washed by the heavy rain.
Before the water in the pond had completely fallen, an earth-shattering roar pierced through the barrier of the Yaochi Palace and spread throughout the heavens.
A behemoth with a body of several feet stepped out of Yaochi and stood behind Chi You.
After all, Yaochi Golden Mother is a profound cultivator, and she is not shocked, and she doesn't feel anything when she encounters such an abnormality. The maid behind her looked frightened, looking up at the black monster on the opposite side with a frightened face. 361 Reading
Shuangyue rubbed her sore ears a few times, and said angrily: "Yuan Turtle, are you sick? Why are you screaming so loudly? My ears are about to be shocked and bleed!"
Yaochi Jin Mu heard that it was a round turtle standing opposite, so she looked carefully for a moment. Then there was a smile between his eyebrows, and he congratulated: "I didn't expect that after the power of the bloodline awakened, the strength actually rose to such a point, and it was not much different from the four heavenly kings. ”
Hearing this, Shuangyue asked with envy, "Really?
Lao Li saw that the round turtle stood in a daze and did not change its human form, and asked in some surprise: "Yuan turtle, what are you doing with the pestle? Don't hurry up and turn into a human form, we should go." ”
The tortoise didn't seem to hear at all, and still stood still. After a while, he spoke: "Now that I feel full of spiritual power, I can't help but cry out, don't be surprised by Shuangyue." ”
Lao Li frowned and said, "What do you say, let's go, didn't you see that the Yaochi Palace Master came to drive people in person?"
Yaochi Jinmu looked at Lao Li when she heard this, her expression was full of disgust, if it weren't for the other party having the title of Nanhua Zhenjun's disciple, I'm afraid she would have slapped her in the face.
The round turtle still turned a deaf ear to Lao Li's words, and after a moment, his godless eyes focused on Lao Li and said, "I'll go back." ”
At this time, everyone could see that the round turtle was unstable and reacted a beat slower.
Lao Li turned his head to look at Ding Cong and asked, "Old Ding, what should I do? What is his situation? The reflex arc has been reset? Why is he still unresponsive?"
Ding Cong had never seen such a situation, and when he didn't know how to answer, Yaochi Jinmu smiled and said: "Young people should read more books if they have time, don't be cowardly in front of outsiders and lose the face of Zhenjun." Teach you to be obedient, when the bloodline awakens, the soul will be affected by the residual memories in the bloodline, and this kind of unresponsiveness will occur. But it doesn't matter, if it's fast, it will take three to five hours, and if it's slow, it will get better in three or five days. ”
Seeing that Lao Li was educated by Yaochi Jinmu, Ding Cong couldn't help but be happy, but he was afraid that Lao Li would be unhappy when he saw it, so he endured it very hard.
The tortoise's body gradually shrinks, the tortoiseshell turns into a shirt, the front hook claws turn into hands, and the back hook claws become feet. The round turtle that had regained its human form was much darker, as if it had just returned from Africa, but its expression was dull and its eyes were a little cloudy.
Ding Cong saw him turn back into a human form and hit a ball of light into his eyebrows, helping him stabilize his soul, so he smiled and said, "Let's go, they all said that there is still a long way to go." After speaking, he saluted the golden mother of Yaochi and left.
The others also saluted and left, and even the round turtle was stunned for a moment and saluted.
Lao Li, who was at the end, wanted to leave directly, but was blocked by the dodge of the golden mother of Yaochi.
Lao Li said coldly: "What are you going to do?"
Yaochi Jin Mu asked with a smile: "At the beginning, Zhenjun promised that I would pay you for completing the special training this time. But I don't know who to talk to about this reward?"
Seeing that Yaochi Jinmu said that she didn't know who to look for, but she kept staring at herself, she immediately became clear in her heart, it must have been what Zhuang Zhou had explained before leaving.
At this time, Lao Li knew why Yaochi Jinmu was very concerned about herself from the beginning, this was because she was afraid that she would come to overlord bubbles!
"Tell me, what kind of remuneration do you want?" Lao Li said helplessly.
Yaochi Jin Mu waved away the maid beside her and said, "I know that Zhenjun is busy, so I have to ask your disciple to do it for me. ”
Lao Li frowned and said, "Just say what you want, don't beat around the bush." ”
Yaochi Jinmu said with a smile: "The girl's family, why is she so anxious." Tell you, I need a spirit grass. ”
When Lao Li heard that it was Lingcao, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It's not that I'm afraid that she will say something difficult, it's just that I'm afraid of trouble. Since the other party asked for spirit grass, it was not a difficult matter, it was a big deal to scavenge it from Ding Cong, anyway, he had saved a lot of good things in his mustard seeds.
The Golden Mother of Yao Chi continued, "The spirit grass I am looking for was born on the top of the spirit vulture, and according to legend, only fire cultivators can pick it. ”
Lao Li suddenly became more relaxed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Well, the first question in this exam should be related to the vulture, and I will get it for you when the time comes." ”
Seeing Lao Li's promise, Yaochi Jinmu smiled even more happily, slowly got out of the way, and said, "Then the palace will wait for the girl's good news." ”
Lao Li giggled and walked over, and when he was about to turn into the stone road, he turned his head and asked, "I forgot to ask, what is the name of the spirit grass you want?"
"That spirit grass is called Feather Protection Grass, and its shape is similar to that of ordinary weeds, and it is indeed pure white. Yaochi Jin Mu paused for a moment and continued: "There is only this kind of spirit grass growing on the top of the Vulture Mountain. ”
Lao Li turned around and said, "I know, I know......"
Not long after leaving, Lao Li saw the backs of Ding Cong and others.
Before he stepped forward, he had already said like a cannon: "You guys are too unrighteous, you don't know how to wait, you used to run alone......, right?
Lao Li's complaining voice naturally couldn't catch up with his style, and he heard it.
Ding Cong turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "Are you left to settle the bill?"
Lao Li snorted twice and said, "Soeasy!"
Shuangyue asked Chi You softly, "Brother Wu Gang, what is she talking about?"
Chi You didn't speak, but Ding Cong let out a meaningful oh.
Soon after the round turtle came out, it returned to normal, and then asked curiously, "What does the Yaochi Palace Master want?"
Lao Li took a few steps first and said, "It's nothing, it's just the feather protection grass on the top of the Vulture Mountain." You're leaving, don't you mean there's still some way to go?"
"Feather Grass!" cried out the tortoise, "Do you know what that is?"
Lao Li didn't expect the round turtle to be so excited, and said in surprise: "Isn't it a spirit grass? What's the matter, what else can't you do?"
Ding Cong looked at Lao Li a few times as if he was mentally retarded, and then said softly: "Haven't you heard Schenk say, there is a Dapeng Goldfinch on the top of Vulture Mountain." ”
Lao Li recalled that he seemed to have really mentioned it once in Netherworld Schenk, but he didn't care about it. At this time, Ding Cong suddenly said it, and he felt that things seemed to be not so simple.
The tortoise continued, "It is said that the goldfinch had an unusual relationship with the Buddha, but it did not obey the Buddha. Because of this relationship, no one has taken it in so far. ”
Lao Li asked, "What does it have to do with the feather protection grass? I don't want to take it." ”
The tortoise shook its head and sighed, "The feather grass is hidden in the feathers under its belly, don't you know?"
Lao Li was puzzled: "Could it be that there is still grass growing on it?"
