Then, everyone recounted how Qing Huang and Guan Heng came to search for the nine great beasts and return to the spirit world, preparing to help the Spirit King resurrect Princess Xinxin.
"What, the princess can really be resurrected?!" After hearing these words, the green dragon went crazy with joy: "Great, let's go and return to the spirit world quickly."
"Wait, why are you in a hurry?" Guan Heng hugged his shoulders and smiled: "Don't forget, besides you, there is a divine beast and the pure evil energy in its soul that has not been found."
"Uh, are you talking about Lao Jiu?!" After hearing Guan Heng's words, the green dragon's tone suddenly changed, and it whispered in a low voice: "I, I may know about the whereabouts of Jiu Ying..."
But before Green Jiao could continue, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded not far away, and then someone shouted loudly: "Mr. Guan, Miss Qinghuang, something serious is going wrong——"
"What?!" Guan Heng turned around and found that the man turned out to be a personal follower of the city lord Lai Gu in the West Desert Tucheng. This man was alone and had no relatives, so he decided to stay with Lai Gu and help him by the way. He handles chores.
Ruotao next to her asked loudly: "What happened?"
"Uu uh uh --" The attendant suddenly reined in the horse, not caring to wipe the sweat on his head. He took the time to say: "There was a man coming from the Great Western Desert. He was seriously injured and fell to the ground. At the gate of the city, he claimed to be the master of ghost control, Shi Gong..."
A short while later, Guan Heng and the others hurried back to West Desert Tucheng. When they arrived at Lai Gu's residence, they saw Shi Gong lying on the bed, still unconscious.
"Brother Guan, you are back. At this moment, Laigu is wiping the injured man's forehead with a wet cloth, hoping to cool him down.
Seeing everyone, Lai Gu said: "This ghost master brother fell at the door. Before he fell into unconsciousness, he kept calling your and Ruotao's names, saying that he had something urgent to report. Brother Guan, I think he was not only seriously injured, but also After traveling day and night in the desert to get back, I have already run out of gas and the lamp is dry. This injury..."
That means that Shi Gong's injury is difficult to heal. After hearing this, Guan Heng shook his head: "It doesn't matter, we are here. As long as he has one breath left, he can be saved. Brother Lai, thank you for taking him." Got it back.”
Hearing this, Lai Gu smiled slightly, because when he saw Guan Heng and others actively rescuing the injured, he stopped talking. The Liangsheng ointment in Guan Heng's hand was indeed a holy medicine for healing. After being taken internally and externally, the injury quickly stopped bleeding and Shi Gong woke up after a while.
When he saw Guan Heng, he immediately struggled to sit up and speak. Guan Heng quickly said: "Brother Shi, you are seriously injured, it is better not to..."
Shi Gong shook his head repeatedly and gasped: "No, no, Mr. Guan, listen to me. I have an important discovery that I must tell you."
"Well, if you want to say it, just say it." Guan Heng knew that he couldn't go against the patient at this moment, otherwise the emotional impact would probably cause the wound to burst, making it difficult to heal.
Shi Gong gave a bitter smile: "Mr. Guan, my brother is in a big stumble this time. He volunteered to find out information for you, but he and his friends encountered a strange and ferocious beast. It seems that they are in danger of being in danger. , I was lucky enough to save my life."
"Ferocious beast?! What kind of monster is it?" After hearing this, Guan Heng's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he slowly asked: "Is the other party related to the Nightmare Alliance?"
"I'm not sure about that."
Shi Gong shook his head with a bit of embarrassment and replied: "But at that time we investigated the affairs of the Nightmare Alliance in the Great Western Desert, and when we were preparing to go to Tucheng, we found that the huge ferocious beast was chasing the members of the Nightmare Alliance. Guy, he destroyed them mercilessly and sucked away the evil energy of the other party."
"A ferocious beast that can absorb evil spirits?!" Guan Heng, Ruotao, and Qinghuang were all shocked after hearing his words. Although Xiao Hei met him for the first time, he was childish and asked casually: " Uncle Shi Gong, what does the ferocious beast you mentioned look like, and does it have any special abilities?"
"Well... I just remembered that the ferocious beast had several huge heads." Shi Gong rubbed his forehead and tried to remember.
"Oops, I remembered it. That guy had two heads that could shoot out flames and water jets respectively. This impressed me deeply and I remember it very clearly."
"A head that can spit out water and fire?!" As soon as the other party said these words, Guan Heng and the others seemed to have a sharp flash in their minds, and they shouted in unison: "Could it be Jiu Ying?!"
"I'm not sure if it's the Jiuying you're talking about, but...but this guy is so terrifying. My brothers who were traveling with me just left to protect me, and never came back. Alas..." said At this point, Shi Gong, who was heavily injured and exhausted, was out of breath.
Guan Heng immediately spoke: "Brother Shi, stop talking. No matter how effective our healing medicine is, most of your injuries will be cured after you rest for a night. Let's do this. Now that we have arrived in Tucheng, you are safe. Let's go tomorrow Before we talk in detail, you must rest first.”
Hearing that the other party's tone even contained a hint of command out of concern for him, Shi Ming felt that he could no longer hold on any longer, so he tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes.
Lai Gu next to him said: "Brother Guan, don't worry. I will take good care of Shi Gong tonight. You have been busy in Zhuohe for most of the day and you need to rest. Go back to your room quickly."
"Okay, let's go." After a few breaths, Guan Heng and others walked into a remote room, and the soul of the green dragon suddenly appeared.
"Guan Heng, Guan Heng, and all of you." Green Jiao raised his voice and said, "What I was going to tell you just now has something to do with the Great Western Desert. In my opinion, the eighty percentile that the injured man met was Jiu Ying. !”
Hearing this, Guan Heng frowned slightly and then asked: "Why do you dare to be so sure?"
"That's because I remembered something."
Green Jiao said at this time: "Lao Jiu and I arrived in the territory of the demon clan almost at the same time. Before he was completely evil, Lao Jiu said that if he was infected by evil, in order to avoid harming innocent people and beasts, , it will definitely find an uninhabited area to hide, and the Great Western Desert is close and meets the requirements, so it should be its first choice."
"That's right. Although Jiu Ying looks a little weird, he has a good heart and always thinks about others." Several other mythical beasts were also chatting beside them, and Chisel Tooth added: "Maybe Maybe it’s because of Princess Qianxin’s influence.”
"So, we can basically lock down the whereabouts of the last mythical beast, the Nine Infants, in the Great Western Desert."
Guan Heng hugged his shoulders and said: "I have to say that this is also a good thing, because we can not only go to the Great Western Desert to eliminate those guys from the Nightmare Alliance, but we can also find the whereabouts of Jiu Ying along the way, so we can do both without delay. It’s killing two birds with one stone.”
Qinghuang and Ruotao nodded at the same time: "Yes, we think so too."
"Then it's decided. When Shi Gong's injury improves tomorrow, we will inquire about some specific details, and then set off for the Great Western Desert."
When Guan Heng said this, he clapped his hands and said with a smile: "So, you must eat well and sleep well tonight, so that you will have the energy to continue the new journey tomorrow."
"Okay, we're going to have a rest too..." As soon as the souls of several mythical beasts said this, Guan Heng suddenly slapped the table with his palm: "You guys wait a minute, you have to rest and sleep all day long, and there are only a few left. Jiu Ying has not been found, I say, you should try your best no matter what, right?"
"Hehehe." Upon hearing his words, Qinghuang, Ruotao and Xiaohei all covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
"Uh, do you really want us to contribute?!" Yuqi said with a guilty conscience at this time: "Okay, feel free to mention anything, but I will stop here in advance. Our abilities are limited. If you encounter problems, Just go and chisel them, I won't interfere."
"What?! You damn cunning thing. When it comes to evil ideas, you are the one with the most evil ideas, but you are also the laziest. You shamelessly shirk responsibility and are not ashamed."
"That's right, who claimed to be the 'Wise Divine Beast' in the spiritual world back then, and said that by using his brain, he could throw us dozens of miles away, was it you?"
The other mythical beasts said something to each other, and in an instant they scolded Yuqi until his head was full of blood, and his soul was shaking with anger. When Guan Heng and the others saw this scene, they all burst into laughter, especially Xiao Hei, who fell down laughing. He actually rolled under the desk.
"That's enough, you guys, why do I have to do it every time you use your brain to come up with ideas?" Yuqi said a little unconvinced: "You say I'm lazy, who among you is not lazy? Humph, Crow If you fall into a pile of coal, no one can call you ugly!"
"That's enough. Although it's fun to listen to you two crazy beasts grinding your teeth and trampling on each other, it's more important to do serious things now."
Guan Heng rubbed his stomach, which was already hurting from laughter, and said, "I just want to ask Jiu Ying what his weaknesses are so that we can deal with him easily. You should know this, right?"
"Well..." Hearing his question, Yanqi was a little dazed, and then muttered: "Don't tell me, what are the weaknesses of Lao Jiu? I really don't know, don't say it's me, how many of them... I probably can’t figure it out either.”
Chisel Tooth said: "Yes, speaking of Lao Jiu, his ability to withstand attacks is absolutely strong among us. My serrated spear and heavy shield could not do anything to him before."
Feng Xi also added: "Well, when we were still in the spirit world, I used to play with Lao Jiu and hit it three feet with all my strength, but this guy didn't move at all."
Xiu Snake also said: "Although my body is wrapped and strangled, it is sharp, but there is nothing I can do about it."
Bailong and Green Dragon said in unison: "We brothers only know underwater tricks. Laojiu's water jets are more powerful than ours, and he can also breathe fire."
Seeing Qinghuang, Ruotao and Xiaohei all looking at him eagerly, Yuleiyan said helplessly: "I am also a little scared of Laojiu, because its skin is very special, especially it is not afraid of the power of thunder and lightning... "
"Oh my god, according to what you guys said, Jiuying is made of copper and iron, invulnerable, and can breathe fire and water. Why the hell are we fighting? I just surrender and admit defeat."
Having said this, Guan Heng rolled his eyes angrily. He then thought about it and immediately continued: "By the way, what about Gale? That ferocious bird can soar up to the nine heavens, so it can't be afraid of Jiu Ying, right?"
"I'm not afraid." Yan Qi chuckled: "It's true that the strong wind is not afraid of Jiu Ying, but the two of them can't fight. One of these two guys can fly, and the other can hide in the ground and drill holes. They don't even have a chance to meet."
"Uh, Jiu Ying, Jiu Ying, are you so awesome?" Guan Heng touched his chin and muttered to himself: "Well, you tell me its characteristics and fighting habits first. At least you have to let me know it. That’s all.”
"Okay, this is simple, I'll satisfy you." As he said that, Chisel Teeth swung his soul body and flew down in front of him, and started talking nonstop.
As we all know, Jiuying can control water and fire to attack enemies, and it has nine heads. Its appearance is definitely not much better. Its heads can make baby-like cries. When fighting with strong enemies, it can still Confuse the other person's mind.
As for Jiu Ying's ability to spit out flames and water jets, few people know how he got it. However, the nine mythical beasts are friends with each other, so naturally they can't hide it from the Chisel Teeth.
It was countless years ago that Jiuying had met the Water God Xuanming and the Fire God Zhurong who were traveling together. The two saw that this beast had nine heads. It was really weird, but there was nothing ferocious or cruel about it. tended to, so he praised Jiu Ying as a lucky beast.
The Water God and the Fire God saw that Jiu Ying was young at that time and had no ability to protect himself in the harsh mountains and rivers. They felt pity and gave Jiu Ying several things, including a piece of "Fire Yang Charcoal" and a pool of "Water Spirit Essence". .
Two of the heads swallowed things that could produce water and fire. From then on, Jiuying had the ability to spit out flames and water jets.
"So, Jiu Ying really has something to do with Xuan Ming and Zhu Rong?" After hearing these words, Guan Heng touched his chin and said, "You think, if my relationship with the Five Elements God is about communicating with this guy, , is there any chance for everyone to resolve everything peacefully?”
After hearing this, several mythical beasts said in unison: "We estimate...it shouldn't be possible!"
"Uluru..." Feng Xi snorted and said: "That guy Lao Jiu is now invaded by evil spirits, and his brain must not be very flexible. If you can risk your life to talk to it, then we will not object. When the time comes, If you die, don't complain that we didn't persuade you."
"Bah, it's obviously a dead pig's head, but it has a crow's mouth."
Guan Heng spat at the other party angrily, and then said: "Jiu Ying has the power of water and fire. I'm not afraid of this, but if I want to completely defeat this guy, do I need special tricks or smash all nine heads? Don’t you have a clue?”
Qinghuang also spoke beside him: "That's right, Yuqi, if you think about it again, this is a major matter related to our safety."
"Hey, Miss Qinghuang, you are also the adopted daughter of Lord Spirit King after all. You are delicate and expensive. Just let Guan Heng do those risky and desperate things. We will protect you when the time comes."
Yu Leiyan said, gently falling on her shoulder and whispering: "It's better not to pay attention to that guy."
"Damn it, you guy, stop trying to drive a wedge between me and Qing Huang." Guan Heng shook his fist and threatened, "Get out of the way."
"Hmph, good beasts won't fight with men, so I'll tolerate you." Xiao Yan was a little frightened of him after all, and immediately shrank to Xiao Hei's side.
Suddenly, Xiu She suddenly said: "By the way, there is no need to attack all of Lao Jiu's heads separately."
