In the dim corner of the cave, the mountain badger was sleeping soundly on all fours. Near where it slept, various minerals with slightly wavy spiritual energy were scattered around, including metals and crystals. The short round ears facing the door twitched slightly. .
The mountain badger is too lazy to move, and the annoying old donkey comes to disturb its sleep, oh no, its practice.
After receiving a rough kick on the buttocks, it was very powerful, "clang", making a dull sound of metal collision. The mountain badger rolled seven or eight times. It didn't even bother to open its eyelids. When lying down, it maintained the most comfortable and perfect posture. In the sleeping position, it was as if Daddy Donkey was helping him loosen his bones and clean the floor.
"You're pretending to be asleep, right? You didn't even lift your noble tail and wag it when I came in..."
Lu Zijin laughed and scolded him, but before he finished speaking, the mountain badger, who had just been asleep and snoring, closed his eyes and sniffed his nose twice, then stood up and pounced to the side accurately, landing three feet away. On the shoulders of the observer outside.
The mountain badger opened his eyes and grinned strangely. His expression looked very much like a donkey's.
It now stands taller than the viewer.
Zhang Wenfeng stretched out his hand and rubbed the mountain badger's flat forehead, put the heavy big thing on the ground, and said with a smile: "I should have sent you to hang out in the demon clan's territory a long time ago. You are well-fed and have good cultivation."
Lu Zijin raised his foot and pushed aside the mountain badger who was rubbing against the viewer's thigh, begging for a hug. He extended his hand to invite him and led him to the hall on the other side. The kennel where the mountain badger was staying was too messy and dirty, and there was no place to stay. , said: "It's so edible that we can't even feed it if we don't have enough money. It has such a good nose that it pulls out all the crystals and minerals buried in the ground and puts it in its nest. It has to sleep for several days after just one meal." "
After entering the stone hall, which could only be described as simple and flat, Lu Zijin did not have any tea to entertain the guests. He was not used to the taste of tea, so he took out some low-level spiritual fruits and placed them in front of the viewer. He placed a jar of fruit wine in front of the viewer and poured a large amount of it. bowl.
The demon clan has a tribe of long-armed demon monkeys engaged in brewing wine, and the wine brewed by the human race has a very different flavor and uniqueness.
The mountain badger is lying next to the feet of the viewer, with his chin resting on the ground just like he did a long time ago.
While drinking and chatting, Zhang Wenfeng took a sip of the light yellow and slightly turbid wine that exuded a fruity aroma. It tasted okay, not as strong as the human wine, and said, "Lezi and Yang Shuilan will get married on the tenth day of the first lunar month. Do you know that?"
"I've heard it from Xiao Ni'er. After Xiao Ni'er plays for another month, we'll be ready to go back."
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. You and Xiao Ni'er will go to Shuzhou City in Daying around the sixth day of the new year, find Rong Shuzhi of Rong Mansion on Hanmo Street, and invite him to the Xianling Temple for the wedding banquet. If he shirks the excuse, Come, then come tied up."
Zhang Wenfeng said with a smile, reaching out and gently combing the hard hair on the back of the sleeping mountain badger.
Lu Zijin's curiosity was aroused, and there was such a weird way to treat guests. Is it a wedding wine or a penalty wine? Asked: "Where did the Water Goddess make the fuss? The name Rong Shuzhi is unfamiliar. He is not a fourth-level Confucian cultivator from Daying."
Zhang Wenfeng said with a smile: "Don't be careless. You are inviting distinguished guests. The bride's natal brother wants to sit at the banquet. Don't ask so many questions. Just treat people when you see them."
Lu Zijin doesn't even drink anymore. Is there such a way to invite your brother-in-law? I scratched my head and scratched my head to inquire, but the visitor pretended to be mysterious and refused to reveal a word more. He was so angry that he couldn't do anything about it.
He decided to go to Shuzhou City in Daying as he had told Xiao Ni'er years ago to see who the immortals were.
With Xiao Ni'er's impatience, she couldn't stay for half a day after hearing such a magical way of treating guests.
After Lu Zijin settled at the top of the mountain named Juyi Peak, Zhang Wenfeng ordered Mountain Badger to accompany the three girls to hunt for treasures in the territory of the Demon Donkey Clan, so that they could get some benefits and have fun and have something to do at the same time.
Accompanied by Lu Zijin, he walked around and looked around.
He had no interest in ordinary crystals and minerals. When he saw some strange and rare elixirs, he dug them up, pulling out the soil with roots, and used the wood energy to nourish the locust wood that he put in his black cloth bag. in a bottle.
There is a lot of space, and a bottle that can hold living things can come in handy.
After playing for five days, the group was led by Lu Zijin and flew south, passing through the territory of other tribes and arriving at the edge of Wave Waves Lake. The Monster Tribe’s territory was vast, and the current number of fourth-level masters was 30 to 40% less than that of the Human Tribe. Therefore, He is not so repulsive to the outsiders Lu Zijin and Xiao Ni'er. Moreover, Lu Zijin is forthright and righteous, and has outstanding strength. He has made many great demon friends in more than a year.
As they went deeper into Waves of Waves Lake, the blue lake water surged, and a group of fish spirits and shrimp monsters flew out of the water.
"Okay, everyone, please step aside. I'll go find the Qingni Carp King myself."
Lu Zijin waved his hand to a group of eccentric spirits that were unable to transform and saluted to go down. He had been here several times, and the little monsters patrolling the waters knew his identity.
Zhang Wenfeng couldn't understand a word of the water demon's "Gulu Gulu" demonic language. He admired the scenery of the lake and mountains, flew five hundred miles southeast, passed many large and small islands, and looked at a small lake island in the distance.
The lake water swept across, and the waves roared and hit the lake island. Many monsters under the water were making waves and were busy attacking.
"Senior Sister Qingni!"
Lu Zijin said hello in advance.
From time to time, there are loud "croaking" sounds coming from the lake island over there.
A carp several feet tall with green scales and a red tail jumped out of the water, flew into the air and turned into a small piece of mud. She held a three-point water splitter and shouted happily: "Master, when did you come? Wait until I take care of this stubborn carp." After turning into a toad, I invite you to go to your residence to rest." He also specially waved to the little fox demon.
Zhang Wenfeng said with a smile: "You go ahead and take a look at the Monster Clan territory we visited a few days ago."
A dark brown toad covered with yellow pimples rushed out from the lake island. It was two feet in size. It floated in the air and bowed its head. It begged in harsh human words: "Qingni Carp King, please accept my fifth surrender. Please Spare my life, I really don’t want to fight.”
It was so unlucky that the Green Carp King refused to accept any surrender. If it didn't seize the rare opportunity in front of it, it would be stupid to death.
"Qi Shi, do you have some backbone? It's not your fault that you are ugly. If you don't have strong bones, what kind of monster are you? Let's fight one last time. I want to go to a flooded lake island, catch toads alive, and create a story about Waves of Waves Lake. "
Xiao Ni'er was very dissatisfied and shouted that all the guys in the lake were obedient to her, and she had no sense of accomplishment.
"King Qingni Carp, my backbone has been shattered by you and I won't be able to gather myself together for a while. Please accept me as your subordinate and serve you in the waves."
The yellow-spotted toad is not stupid. A few days ago, the third-level green crab Leng Tou Qing accompanied the unreasonable Qing Ni Carp King to achieve success. I heard that he was drowned in the lake and the crab meat was given to other little monsters as trophies. After all the food was eaten, what was left was an empty shell, basking in the sun on an island.
Xiao Ni'er turned around and glanced at the spectator who was looking at her side with a half-smile in the distance. She was so angry that she flew up her tail and pulled the toad that refused to cooperate a hundred feet away. This ugly thing displeased her and she cursed: "Go and patrol by the lake. Don't jump around in front of me. I feel sick when I see those pimples on your body."
The yellow-spotted toad escaped with his life and did not dare to show any joy. He bowed and escaped into the water.
The demon clan's territory is based on strength. Without strength and no backing, one has to be discerning. People like it who are naturally ugly are not welcome anywhere.
Xiao Ni'er dismissed the underwater monsters, flew to the viewer and others, and explained: "That ugly toad used to be the dominant one within a hundred miles of this water area. I don't know how many little monsters that broke into this place were swallowed up. I I want to take the opportunity to get rid of it, but forget it, its life should not be taken away, just spare its life and serve as a patrol."
The little fox demon exclaimed in envy: "Sister Xiao Ni'er, you are so majestic. Is such a big Boiled Lake your territory now?"
"That's about right. The big monster on land doesn't care about the water, so I got an advantage. The lake is full of useless water monsters. There are only four third-level monsters in total. We haven't fought many decent battles. It's boring."
Xiao Ni'er's words were meaningless, and her eyes showed her teeth when she smiled, but it deeply betrayed her.
The sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the water wide enough for fish to leap.
She likes it here so much.
