Chapter 19: Shen Gong Leopard's Mount (1) (Ask for a recommended collection.)
After Shen Gongbao comforted the fairy Yunhua from Taoshan, he left Taoshan and continued to travel to the mainland alone, traveled all over the country, and enjoyed the various beauties of the Honghuang Continent.
Shen Gongbao didn't know that because of his insertion, he had a big cause and effect with Jade Emperor Haotian and Yunhua Fairy and others, and he still needed to understand this cause and effect in the future.
But it was said that Shen Gongbao came to a small city, went to the restaurant, ordered the most delicious food and a few pots of wine in the restaurant, and tasted it happily.
This small city is close to the periphery of a huge flood forest, although there are many fierce beasts such as tigers, leopards, wolves and jackals in the flood forest, and all kinds of birds of prey are also not a few, but as long as they do not enter the depths of the flood forest, there is no big problem, and these fierce beasts rarely come out of the forest to attack the local residents.
At this time, the aura on the Flood Desolate Continent is still very strong, so even in the periphery of the Flood Desolate Forest, there are many precious medicinal materials, many mortal medicine farmers will enter the periphery of the Flood Desolate Forest to look for medicinal materials, and many hunters will also enter the periphery of the Desolate Forest to hunt.
Due to the large number of medicine farmers and hunters, this place quickly attracted a large number of traders and pawns, and this little-known town is also very lively, with people coming and going between the streets and alleys, and the sound of selling.
Shen Gongbao was leaning on the pavilion, drinking wine, looking at the towering giant trees and verdant mountains not far away, at this time, the content of the chat of several people on the side attracted the attention of Shen Gongbao.
"Hey, have you heard? Several towns on the edge of the city have been attacked by a very terrible beast, which resembles a lion and has a sharp horn on its head, and eats it when it sees it, and many people have already been eaten alive!" said a diner dressed in gray, his face a little frightened.
The man in blue on the opposite side also said in unison: "It's not, but I heard that this beast appears at this time every year, and it will disappear soon, so it is estimated that it is hiding back in the desolate forest!"
The gray-clothed man nodded and said, "Well, it may be that there are many people in our small city, and the beast does not dare to approach, and those small towns are sparsely populated, so they have suffered a disaster, alas"
The man in blue smiled and said, "What's the use of sighing, even the best hunters have no way to make such a fierce beast, I'm afraid that only those rumored immortals can subdue this fierce beast, but the immortals are all dragons who don't see the tail, how can they care about such a trivial matter!"
After speaking, the man in blue also sighed, shook his head, picked up a slice of meat, and ate it, and the man in gray stopped talking, drinking in a muffled voice, obviously not wanting to mention this boring thing again.
When Shen Gong Leopard heard this, his expression moved, and he felt that the beast described by the two was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't think of what it was for a while, and there were so many demon beasts and birds of prey on the Flood Desolate Continent at this time, and Shen Gong Leopard couldn't know the origin of this beast based on this description alone.
"Hehe, when I'm done eating, let's go and see this beast, if I can, get rid of it, it's also a great merit!" Shen Gongbao muttered to himself, and then tasted the wine and food with relish.
After a full meal, Shen Gongbao left the tavern in good spirits, and went up to the clouds when no one found him, all the way to the town that the gray and blue clothes said had been attacked.
Soon, Shen Gongbao came to the nearest town, only to see that there were only a few scattered houses, and two of the houses had been destroyed by the crash, and the traces of it were obviously destroyed not long ago.
At this time, a group of people were packing up their things, and it seemed that they were about to leave, Shen Gongbao couldn't help but step forward and smell an old man with gray hair, and said: "Hello old man, poor Dao Shen Gongbao, is a cultivator in the deep mountains, passing through here and being shocked to hear that there are strange beasts attacking the residents, I came to take a look, to see if I can help!"
When the old man heard this, his expression was shocked, and he immediately trembled and took Shen Gongbao's hand, tears flashed in the old man's eyes, and he said: "Dao Chief, are you a master of the Dao? Please get rid of this evil beast!"
Then he intermittently said the general information about this strange beast, and Shen Gongbao realized that this town had been attacked by this strange beast for three consecutive years, and it was because after being attacked by the strange beast again not long ago, the people in the town had to pack up their things and prepare to leave their hometown where they had lived for many years and go to live elsewhere.
And the old man is the mayor of this place, but his two sons and a grandson were unfortunately killed in the previous attack, hearing that Shen Gong Leopard is actually the legendary master, other residents in the town immediately surrounded him, knelt down in front of Shen Gong Leopard, and all cried loudly: "Dao Chief, I hope to save me!"
"Yes, Dao Chief, slay the strange beast that was slain with a thousand knives!
"Dao Chief, help, we don't want to leave our hometown and be displaced!"
Shen Gongbao looked at the people in front of him, his heart was both shocked and sentimental, the shock was that the strange beast was really fierce, and it actually frightened these people completely, and the sentimental thing was that everyone had no strength to resist the strange beast, so they could only leave their homeland.
Shen Gongbao couldn't help but think of himself under the power of Yuan Shi Tianzun, and secretly reminded himself: "We must quickly improve our strength, otherwise, what is the difference between me and these people in front of me! When the crisis comes, I am afraid that there is no power to resist!"
The thought was fleeting in an instant, and Shen Gongbao cast a spell slightly, helped everyone up, and said, "Everyone, please rest assured, if you are within the power of the poor Dao, you should have made a merit to get rid of this evil beast!"
Everyone had never seen a master, but when Shen Gongbao accidentally revealed his hand, he was even more surprised, and couldn't help but say: "Thank you, Daoist!"
Then Shen Gongbao pulled the old man over, and after asking in detail about the location and some characteristics of the strange beast, he said goodbye to everyone and looked at the desolate forest.
Following the traces that have not disappeared, Shen Gong Leopard came to a valley without any obstacles, standing in the clouds, Shen Gong Leopard's consciousness swept away, and found that there was indeed a strange beast sleeping soundly in the valley.
I saw that this strange beast was slightly ten zhang long, four or five zhang tall, resembling a fierce lion, with a cold and shining horn on its head, and a piece of red scales all over its body, braving the raging fire, protecting the whole body, and a huge copper hammer-like thing at the end of the three-zhang long tail.
Shen Gongbao stroked the goat's beard and stared at the sleeping beast for a long time before he smiled: "It just so happens that I still lack a mount, so I will choose you!"
After careful inspection, Shen Gongbao found that this strange beast had probably only opened its spiritual wisdom for a short time, and he didn't know how to cultivate, and his cultivation was still very low, although he didn't have a powerful magic weapon in his hand, he could also subdue this beast.
Then, Shen Gong Leopard descended from the clouds and descended into the valley, and before Shen Gong Leopard completely descended, the beast had woken up, and saw that there were outsiders in his territory, and immediately roared angrily.
Shen Gongbao was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Evil animal, you dare to go to the public land to hurt the innocent, but now the poor road is here to accept you as my mount, lest you be killed by others later!"
"Hmph, stinky Taoist, why bother to pretend to be righteous like this, if you want to subdue me, it depends on whether you have the ability or not!" the beast roared.
Shen Gongbao was taken aback, and his expression changed slightly: "Your cultivation is so low, the horizontal bone in your throat should be refined, how can you speak?"
"Roar! I am the only year beast in the world, what is the fuss about it, stinky Taoist, you are really lonely and unheard, you don't even know the prestige of my year beast!"
Shen Gongbao patted his forehead, and finally knew why he felt that this strange beast was very familiar before, it turned out to be a year beast!
Seeing this, Shen Gongbao's heart to subdue the year beast is even worse, there is a unique year beast, it must be very popular, at least much stronger than the white-fronted tiger in the record.
And think that when everyone celebrates the New Year, many people will think of the story of the beast in this year, and then they can also collect a lot of incense from the people, and it is necessary to know that the incense of the people is also a thing that can increase luck.
