Mo Qin and Mo Yuan looked at the iron ball with more than a dozen expressions including envy, love, and greed.
Don't get me wrong, the iron ball is not a metal ball, but the pangolin who became Bai Yujun's follower. Because the armor is strong and it bends down when defending, it turns into a ball, so Bai Yujun irresponsibly named it iron ball.
After eating a large amount of monster meat, the two brothers and sisters successfully improved their physique and entered the Qi refining stage. Although their initial cultivation level was not high, it was enough for the two of them. They did not expect that they could become powerful and live for hundreds of years. , this short sentence is enough to live a good life.
With the help of Bai Yujunshe, they bought a house near Chunyang Station and settled down. Bai Yujun would come over to chat and brag whenever he had nothing to do.
Especially when there is an extra follower, he comes to show off whenever he has nothing to do.
Tie Qiu lived a happy life.
Its admiration for the snake boss is as vast as the endless lake in the south. Not only does the boss have everything he wants, but more powerfully, no one dares to mess with him when he enters and exits the human city at will. Even those humans with swords must be polite and have rich and varied food. It's not like eating ants and bees all day long. If you follow the boss, you can eat and drink all kinds of things every day.
Bai Yujun always attracts attention when she takes pangolins shopping every day.
Iron Ball's long nose, slender tail and solid scales all over its body are strange. People from Chunyang Palace said that it is hard to understand why a monster adopts a monster. Anyway, it is not a poisonous and bloodthirsty monster. There are also senior brothers and sisters who secretly come to ask where they can find such a follower.
The days were extremely interesting.
…………
One morning with heavy rain.
The rain did not stop for a day, and the streets in the city turned into small rivers. The rainwater from countless small rivers gathered into the main roads and became large rivers. Then they headed straight to Nanyuan Lake without stopping. The windy and rainy weather became a rare rest day for the sailors.
There weren't many people in the wounded barracks due to the recent decrease in fighting, but Bai Yujun still insisted on coming over to check.
It's a long way to go from Chunyang Station to the Wounded Barracks. It's raining today and the road is difficult to travel. The money-obsessed snake decided to spend some money to hire an ox cart to avoid getting wet in the rain. Only the old scalper didn't care much about the heavy rain.
The wooden wheels rattled as they drove on the paved streets, which made my butt hurt...
Iron Ball was so big that he could only follow the car. He moved his paws and didn't care about the mud and water splashing on him, which made the old coachman who drove the car curiously watch him all the way.
It didn't take long to arrive outside the wounded barracks.
After paying the fare, he led the iron ball to the camp. The magical power to control the wind and rain pushed the rain above his head to both sides. With his own ability to shelter from the rain, he leaned against the wall without water and walked forward. People who live in the countryside We all know that on rainy days, you can only walk on both sides of the dirt road.
Walking to the tent, I turned my head around and found a stone that was slightly sharp like a kitchen knife.
Then……
He raised his little feet and scraped the mud off the soles of his shoes. When he was satisfied, he opened the door curtain and got into the tent. Iron Ball behind him followed suit and carefully scratched his claws on the sharp stones.
The one who came to check was the young boy whose belly was slashed. His father also gave him a small piece of agarwood.
After many days of recuperation, the injury was almost healed. No inflammation or infection occurred under the nourishment of the water spirit power. Bai Yujun took a dagger in his hand and carefully cut open the bandage bit by bit. Under the nervous and anxious gaze of the old man, he peeled off the bandage to reveal the centipede-like wound and sutured it. The threads have long since been removed, leaving only hideous scars.
"Congratulations on your survival. Go home. The government won't embarrass you. You are so sick and you want to leave early."
After wiping his hands, Bai Yujun thought that this kid could be discharged from the hospital.
The old man knelt down again and pulled the older boy to kneel down with him. Pangolin Iron Ball thought this was a human ritual.
"Fairy's great kindness will never be forgotten. I kowtow to you."
I rubbed my head and felt a headache. I knelt down every now and then. I don’t know who I learned it from. If I couldn’t stop them, kowtow was one of the few ways they could repay me.
"If it's okay, I'll leave first. Remember to pretend that you are seriously injured and become disabled, otherwise the government will not let you go."
"Thank you fairy for the reminder."
Waving his hands, Bai Yujun walked out of the tent and continued to visit.
This is the last visit for a while. After that, he will devote himself wholeheartedly to practicing in seclusion and striving to improve his cultivation level. With the support of the dragon energy of the Nanshan Mountains and the vast waters of Nanyuan Lake, Bai Yujun is confident that he can improve his cultivation level to the perfect state of foundation building. After passing through Nanyuan Hu's preparations during this period have already accumulated enough for promotion.
Finally, I finished all the matters that needed to be resolved before the retreat before dinner.
Then he stayed in his hut and used his half-hearted prediction ability to choose an auspicious day for himself. In order to achieve success in retreat, he went to the resident temple, knelt in front of the Sanqing icon, kowtowed three times, and ran away again. He went to the mountains to pick good fruits and offer them to the pangolins. He offered incense and prayed so devoutly that all the Chunyang disciples were confused...
everything's ready.
He reported his whereabouts to a certain elder at the station, and then led the dipping pangolin Iron Ball out without any weapons.
Safety comes first. The reason why I dare to retreat without weapons is because the retreat location is a small island in the lake outside Nanyuan City.
There is a small island not far from the pier, which is not suitable for garrisoning troops or docking boats. There is a natural huge cave on the island. There is a pool in the cave connected to the lake. It is Bai Yujun's choice for retreat.
The island is a rock that protrudes out of the water. People who know Feng Shui can find that this unknown island echoes the dragon head of Nanshan Dragon Vein. It is the remnant of Nanshan Mountain extending from the underground to Nanyuan Lake. It looks like a dragon. The tongue protruding from the mouth is such a precious place, as if it was created for Bai Yujun. It can not only cleanse the meridians with the dragon energy of the earth veins, but also practice with the help of the lake. It is much better than the inlet that was muddle-headedly advanced during the flood control a long time ago.
The island is not very far from Chunyang Station. If the evil spirit approaches, it will definitely alert the elders, so there is no need to worry about safety.
Take a small boat to land on the island with Iron Ball.
He left enough animal meat and a bottle of elixirs for the pangolin, and ordered it to guard the island without being disturbed by others. He also hung a jade talisman unique to Chunyang Palace on its body.
He went into the cave and turned into a white snake coiled up in a coil.
Bai Yujun began to crazily absorb the spiritual energy contained in Nanyuan Lake...
outside the cave.
Pangolin Iron Ball raised his head and looked at the sky. Dark clouds gradually covered the sun in the clear sky just now. The sky and earth were dark, and there were thunder snakes flashing in the dark clouds. Iron Ball, who was afraid of thunder and lightning, dug a small hole and got in.
Not long after, a white curtain of rain enveloped Nanyuan Lake, and the entire lake was immersed in heavy rain. The elders of Chunyang Palace and those evil masters looked at the sudden heavy rain and felt confused. Above the Nascent Soul stage, they could slightly feel what the weather was like, which they had never done before. There was the slightest sign of rain, but there was no trace of human manipulation, which was very strange.
Chunyang Station, on the roof of the attic.
Chu Zhe stood in front of the window and looked out at the vast rain curtain, wondering why.
"Thunder clouds gather but never disperse, strong winds howl, and rain clouds never move. If Master were here, he would definitely answer my questions. How strange."
Nanyuan Lake has entered the weird rainy season...
