Ji Xiaoxi was looking at the big strange rat with a shocked expression. It was obvious that even she, who often traveled deep into Longyin Mountain, had never seen the appearance of the other person.
Hearing Zu An's words, she just woke up from a dream, and hurriedly took out a pill from the small bag she carried with her and handed it to him: "Take this quickly, and you won't have to worry about the poison on me."
Zu An took the little blue pill and was shocked when he heard this: "This medicine can make you immune to the poison. Aren't you afraid that I will do anything wrong to you?"
Ji Xiaoxi's face turned red and her eyes secretly glanced at his belly: "You are different from other men. What's more, we have to stay in the secret realm for ten days. We need to help each other to protect ourselves. You will be poisoned every time we come into contact. It's not that convenient. .”
Zu An naturally knew what her eyes meant, but he didn't expect that his special situation could bring such benefits. No wonder so many people pretended to be gay to get close to their best friends in their previous lives. It turns out that it can lower their guard to the greatest extent, and the effect is so good: " Did your father give you this pill?"
It's strange to say that with the way Ji Dengtu was protecting her, how could he make such pills?
"I developed this myself." Ji Xiaoxi's face turned slightly red, "Dad and I have learned a lot over the years, so we tried to make it."
Zu Anxin thought it was no wonder, but suddenly realized: "There won't be any problem if you eat this thing, right?"
Ji Xiaoxi waved her hands hurriedly: "No, no, the medicinal materials I chose are very mild and won't have any side effects."
Zu An was relieved. After swallowing the pill, the itching and stinging on his hands disappeared quickly. He tried touching the other person's clothes, and sure enough, he no longer had the reaction to the poisoning.
He touched her hair again and pinched her cheek in disbelief. Sure enough, everything was fine from beginning to end.
"Azu, you hurt me." Ji Xiaoxi rubbed her cheek and said with some resentment.
Zu An laughed and said, "The skin is good."
"Zhizhi~zhizhizhi~" At this moment, the angry voice of the strange rat came from not far away.
It didn't understand. Not only were these two guys not afraid when they saw it, they even showed affection there, completely pretending it didn't exist.
Seeing it explode, the two finally came to their senses:
"Xiao Xi, do you recognize this thing?"
"I haven't seen it before, but it doesn't seem to have a strong aura."
"Yeah, I think so too."
Although he didn't understand what the two were talking about, the strange rat felt the contempt in their eyes and became a little angry. He squeaked and rushed towards the two of them, opening his mouth with his huge front teeth and biting.
After all, Zu An and Ji Xiaoxi were both at level 3. Although the strange rat was fast, they still dodged it calmly.
"Almost second-grade." Based on the speed and strength shown by the other party, Zu An made a rough judgment in his mind. Not only was this kind of strength not dangerous to him now, it was not too dangerous when he went to Jackal Valley.
But what happened to those thorns just now?
As if in response to his doubts, the strange rat suddenly arched its body, and its whole body seemed to have swelled by half.
Taking a closer look, it's not that it itself has gotten bigger, but that the hairs on its body are standing up, making it look a bit bigger.
"Be careful!" Ji Xiaoxi suddenly exclaimed at the side.
The hair on the back of the strange rat suddenly shot out, and three hard thorns shot straight towards Zu An.
"It's actually a long-range one!"
Zu An complained while dodging. With his current speed, even if he didn't use Sunflower Phantom, it wouldn't be a big problem.
He noticed that the color of the tuft of hair on the back of the opponent's head was obviously different from the rest. The hair on the strange rat's body was mainly brown, but that tuft of hair looked more yellow, and the hard thorns it shot seemed to be all those yellow hairs.
Seeing that it missed the target, the strange rat became anxious, arched its back again, and shot out several hard thorns.
This time, Zu An drew out his long sword while hiding, and practiced the accuracy of his swordsmanship by flying several of the thorns away.
Why didn't this guy attack Ji Xiaoxi? Did the mice care about his face?
But in terms of looks alone, how am I worse than her?
After a few more rounds of shooting, but seeing that he still missed the opponent, the strange rat's two little eyes rolled around, then turned around and ran away.
But Zu An stopped it with a jump: "Don't go, I haven't had enough yet?"
The strange rat was furious and shot three more shots, but they were still easily avoided by the opponent.
The strange rat tried to escape again, but was stopped again. After several rounds, it had a large bald patch on the back of its head.
The fury value from the Golden-haired Monster Rat is +6+6+6+6...
Zu An was delighted. It turned out that this guy could also provide anger points, so he couldn't stop anymore.
After a while, the golden-haired monster finally became completely bald, and Zu An finally decided to kill it.
"Forget it, it's quite pitiful." Ji Xiaoxi tried to dissuade her. The tearful look in the strange rat's eyes made her feel a little unbearable.
"Okay." Of course, Zu An would not refuse a cute girl's simple request. He waved his hand casually, and the strange rat quickly disappeared into the grass as if he had been granted amnesty.
"I don't think there is much danger in this world." Zu An was a little worried at first, but now after the battle with the strange rat, he suddenly felt confident, "Is the academy overly cautious?"
Ah, bah, bah, after watching so many TV series, I can’t stand the flag.
Ji Xiaoxi shook his head: "This should still be on the outskirts of the secret realm, so the level of the ferocious beasts here is not very high. If you go deeper, you should encounter guys that are more difficult to deal with."
Zu An hummed. At this time, he was more worried about Shi Kun's plan and how the other party planned to deal with him.
Take action personally?
Probably not. How could a superior person like them be willing to dirty their hands?
Hey, why do I use the word dirty?
At this moment, he suddenly heard a rustling sound and subconsciously turned around: "Xiao Xi, did you hear anything?"
"No?" Ji Xiaoxi looked confused.
"Oh." Zu An started to think again. Shi Kun was unwilling to do it himself. This time Xue'er came in again. She was definitely going to take action. However, after what happened last time, she was not afraid to experience pregnancy and childbirth again. Feel.
It seems that she is not the only one.
Xixisuosuo~
At this time, there was another sound, and even Ji Xiaoxi heard it. The two turned around with wary expressions, and then their expressions changed at the same time, because there were more figures of golden-haired monster rats in the grass.
If there were just a few of them, it wouldn't be a big problem, but if you look around, you can see that they are so densely packed with small eyes staring closely at you that you feel really panicked.
"How much is this?" Zu An swallowed.
"Let's say there are hundreds at least. You can't see clearly from behind, but it's not impossible that there are thousands." Ji Xiaoxi was also a little flustered. Girls were relatively more afraid of these things.
Suddenly, a strange golden-haired rat jumped out, squeaking at a companion who was obviously huge, and pointing in the direction of the two of them. Although I couldn't understand what it was saying, I could definitely feel it. It is accusing something with all its sound and color.
"Do you think this one looks familiar?" Zu An's eyes fell on the bare skin on the back of its head.
"It seems to be the one just now." Ji Xiaoxi swallowed, and she could clearly feel her nervousness.
The largest golden-haired strange rat made several harsh calls, and the golden-haired strange rats all arched their bodies.
Zu An's expression changed drastically, he hurriedly grabbed Ji Xiaoxi's hand and ran away.
Are you kidding? Maybe a few spikes shot out can be dealt with, but hundreds or thousands of them are no less than a rain of arrows shot by an army. No matter how you dodge and move, they will be shot for you in minutes. hedgehog.
As soon as they left, the place where they were standing was covered with spikes covering a radius of more than ten feet. Seeing them hiding away, the golden-haired monster rats also became angry. They all squeaked and chased them. Wherever they passed, all the weeds half a person's height fell down. Looking from a distance, it seemed like a tidal wave. It was as if the waves were chasing the two of them.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't been soft-hearted and let one go, it wouldn't be like this." Ji Xiaoxi's tone was full of apology.
"It has nothing to do with you. No one thought there were so many of them." Zu An reminded, "Stop talking, lest you get distracted."
The two ran for a while, and the golden-haired monster rats were still chasing after them tirelessly. Although they could not catch up with them, they could not get rid of them either.
"Then what should we do now?" Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but speak.
"You were fine before going into the depths of Longyin Mountain. Why do these dead rats still dare to chase you now?" Zu An asked curiously.
"I just chatted with you and forgot to take out the medicine. It's too late to take it out now. They have already seen our appearance, and the smell alone cannot scare them." Ji Xiaoxi replied, but she actually didn't finish her sentence. There was a way to make these rats ignore her, but how could she bear to put Zu An in danger alone, so she still ran with him.
Zu An: "..."
He couldn't blame the other party. After all, who could have expected to encounter such a dangerous situation just outside the secret realm. Speaking of which, he didn't know if other passers-by would be as unlucky as them.
Hey, it’s really not good to go all the way west.
Noticing Ji Xiaoxi's worried expression, he comforted her: "Don't worry, maybe they will stop chasing after they get tired after running for a while."
Speaking of which, there was no serious grudge between the two parties. They just beheaded one of the golden-haired monster rats without killing it. Unless this guy was the son of the Rat King, I really couldn't figure out why they would keep chasing me.
However, after running for an hour, Zu An's heart sank. The rats behind him had no intention of stopping, and he already felt a little disturbed.
"Azu, I...I can't run anymore." Ji Xiaoxi was even more exhausted.
"There is a valley ahead. With the barrier and space to dodge, we can slowly deal with these dead rats." Zu An's eyes suddenly lit up and he noticed a quiet valley in the distance.
You must know that there is no shelter at all in the plains. Faced with countless swarms of rats from all directions, no matter how powerful you are, they can gnaw you to the bones in an instant. All you can do is run away.
But it's different in the valley. With all kinds of obstacles, you can slowly deal with the rats. After all, a single strange rat is not that strong.
The valley looked not far away, but it was really hard to see the mountains.
At first, Zu An grabbed Ji Xiaoxi's hand and ran with her. Later, Ji Xiaoxi almost fell down several times and simply picked her up. Fortunately, she was petite and it took no effort to hold her in his arms.
Being held in his arms, Ji Xiaoxi's face suddenly turned red. She had never been in such close contact with a man on weekdays. She could only keep comforting herself. Brother Zu was just trying to save her, and he was different from other men...
Finally, Zu An finally ran into the valley, and a cold breath rushed towards him. You must know that he had been running for so long, and his whole body was extremely hot, but when he was forced by this breath, he even felt a little chilly.
"What's going on?" Zu An was stunned, but he didn't have time to think about the reason. He was looking around, looking for a place to hide.
At this moment, Ji Xiaoxi's surprised voice came to his ears: "Azu, look, those strange rats haven't followed."
Zu An turned around in confusion and noticed that the group of golden-haired monster rats stayed a few feet away from the outside of the canyon, patrolling back and forth at the mouth of the canyon, looking restless but afraid to move forward.
"Is there something terrible in the valley that they are afraid of?" A thought came to mind.
