Chapter 28 [Seeking Skin from a Tiger]
The robe slowly fit into his figure and became very suitable. Ge Xian stood up slowly, feeling the feeling of putting on a monk's robe for the first time. It must be said that this kind of clothes is simply a high-tech product.
The material of the robe is unclear. The texture is soft and skin-friendly, but it doesn't feel baggy. There was special protection on the chest and abdomen, and a mirror-like device appeared. He tried it and found it was quite hard.
At the same time, the robe has many pockets, which are not visible from the outside, both inside and outside.
In addition, once he boosts his spiritual energy, the entire robe will suddenly take on another form, turning into a silver armor, and its defense power will seem to be greatly increased.
He hid the wishful package and the fat rat's cocoon, and then looked across the bridge. There was a dark hole there, with bursts of white mist coming out. He had an intuition that this place was very dangerous. With his With his current strength, he may not be able to protect himself.
There was a battle between heaven and man in Ge Xian's mind for a while, and then he turned around and left. He decided to ignore it. He had gained enough in the Immortal Cave this time, and there was no need to take any more risks. It was time to leave now.
boom!
The bridge collapsed directly, and then a cloud of mist emerged, followed by a huge shadow slowly emerging. Ge Xian quickly retreated, but was immediately immobilized by a powerful spiritual power, making him extremely anxious.
A head emerged from the clouds and mist. It was... a head that was a hundred meters tall. In front of it, Ge Xian was like an ant.
Big snake, this is the head of a big snake, with black and red scales intertwined on both sides of the face, a pair of vertical eyes tens of meters high, one is bright yellow, the other is dark green, exuding chilling terror breath.
The core was spit out, bringing with it a fishy stench that hit his nostrils. Ge Xian almost fainted from the smoke, but fortunately, a fragrance quickly emerged from his body and suppressed the stinky smell.
"Those fruits?" Ge Xian immediately recalled that the fragrance in his body came from the fruits Fat Rat brought him. There were two kinds in total, and they seemed to be extraordinary.
"Zhizhi..." At the critical moment, the fat rat emerged from the cocoon, but it surprised Ge Xian.
At this moment, the fat mouse no longer looked like the dark house mouse it had been before. It had turned into an...elegant and beautiful mouse. Well, it seemed inappropriate to put it this way, but that was how it felt to Ge Xian.
It turned into an elegant white mouse, retaining only a small short tail, and even a somewhat graceful figure. Moreover, this white mouse is not the kind of experimental white mouse seen in the outside world, but can stand upright. female mouse in humanoid form.
"Master, this is Lord Yunwu. Why did you mess with him? I'll help you leave!" A woman's voice fell in his ears, and Ge Xian took a breath of air.
"Are you really Fat Rat? Why are you talking?" Ge Xian couldn't help but ask. At this time, his body was tapped by Fat Rat, and he was able to move immediately and started running immediately.
The former Fat Rat, now the Rat Girl, couldn't help but said angrily: "That's what I looked like before I transformed. Now I have naturally broken away from the category of monster beasts and become a demon cultivator. Okay, okay, no more nonsense. Come on, master, hold me tight."
"Ah, what are you going to do?" Ge Xian looked at her in confusion and refused to hug her.
The mouse girl was so angry that she pulled him into her arms, and her face was suddenly covered with plumpness, making her somewhat suffocated.
With a whoosh, I felt my body light up, and I actually flew up. It was not like flying in the arms of the mouse girl.
"Amazing, you can actually fly?" Ge Xian finally struggled to free his face from the plumpness and said with a breath.
The mouse girl smiled sweetly and said: "The few monster inner elixirs I swallowed gave me several talents, and flying is one of them. Master, it is a blessing. By the way, master, from now on, you will call me mouse." Rat."
"Butterfly? Hey, you took advantage of me!" Ge Xian glared at her, not satisfied.
Shushu was stunned and didn't react. After all, she had never been in the secular world.
Ouch!
Fortunately, at this time, Lord Yunwu interrupted the chat between the two of them again, and a huge attraction appeared again. Shushu gritted his teeth and flew against the attraction. Perhaps because he was carrying Ge Xian, he was still being sucked towards Yunwu Tianjun's mouth.
"Zhushu, let me go!" Ge Xian showed a determined expression on his face.
But she did not obey, but shook her head equally firmly.
"I have burdened you now. If I drag you on any longer, we will be buried in its mouth together!" Ge Xian said anxiously.
"No, Master, I will not abandon you. I have stayed here for hundreds of years and have been living a life of confusion and precarity. It was the appearance of the Master that changed my destiny. Shushu has decided to serve him for the rest of his life. My lord, even if you die, your Tao will not change." Shushu's unquestionable tone made Ge Xian silent, but seeing her struggling to support herself, her mana constantly draining, and her powerlessness in pain, his heart was also shaken. Touched.
The rat in front of him was originally just a pet, and now he barely regarded it as a partner. However, the loyalty of rat to him could cost his life. This kind of feeling was completely unequal to him, which made him feel uncomfortable. Not thinking deeply but also falling into reflection.
Snapped!
A palm hit Shushu, and Shushu turned back to look at Ge Xian in disbelief. With the help of this reverse force, Shushu instantly got rid of the pull of Yunwu Tianjun.
"Zhushu, I won't die so easily, never!" Ge Xian showed an expression that he would rather die than give in. With a whooshing sound, many stones and some animals such as bats around him were sucked into the mouth of Yunwu Tianjun, and then it He closed his mouth and sank slowly.
"Master...I will never give up on you..." Shushu covered her mouth and tried hard not to make a sound. With the weak spiritual connection she had established with Ge Xian, she could sense that Ge Xian was not dead. , but was temporarily swallowed into the belly of Yunwu Tianjun.
She quickly flew off the bridge and followed the trail of Lord Yunwu.
Ge Xian felt like he was still sinking, as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit, and he didn't know when he would reach the bottom.
"Hahaha... someone finally came to accompany me..." A somewhat familiar voice sounded, and Ge Xian couldn't remember it for a while.
He kept hitting the teeth blades and stones, which fell on the surrounding rock walls, but these rock walls were actually very solid, and neither his magic nor hidden weapons could break the material.
His waist tightened, and he felt like he was being tied up by some rope. Then his body was pulled horizontally by a burst of force, and with a whoosh, he landed in a cave.
The fall was heavy, and Ge Xian immediately coughed up blood. Fortunately, his current physical condition was very good, and he could still withstand this level of internal injuries.
"Why is he just a late-acquired boy? Huh, no, Gen Gu is still very young... How... is this possible..." This was a man's voice, and it sounded a bit older, probably fifty years old.
Ge Xian quickly grabbed a better-quality spiritual stone from the package and quickly refined it to restore his spiritual power. At the same time, he bought time to restore his physical strength. At the same time, he concentrated his spiritual power on his eyes, trying his best to see clearly inside the cave. Case.
It's said to be a cave, but it doesn't really look like it. It's more like a breathing flesh cave, because Ge Xian knew that this was the belly of the big snake.
"Who is the senior and why are you here?" Ge Xian asked calmly. In fact, he recognized that this person was a Zuo Taoist, but he had never dealt with this person head-on, so it was considered his first time. The two met.
Taoist Zuo saw that although this boy Ge Xian was not very advanced, he was quite courageous and dared to ask him about his identity and origin.
"Boy, please tell me how you got in first?" Zuo Daoren slowly walked out of the shadows, showing a powerful spiritual pressure on his body.
This spiritual pressure even overwhelmed the feeling given to him by Chen Churui and Liu Ying, making Ge Xian couldn't help but wonder. He had witnessed the battle in which Zuo Taoist was defeated by the two men. Why did he still appear to be defeated when he was clearly defeated? More powerful?
"Boy, are you just listening to what I said?" Zuo Daoren stretched out his hand and locked it in the direction of Ge Xian's throat. Suddenly Ge Xian felt a huge force fall on his neck, and his whole body was lifted up. The strength gap between the two sides was too great, and Ge Xian had no power to resist.
"Senior, if you have something to say, please speak it carefully. You can't say it well by squeezing my neck like this." Ge Xian still acted rationally.
"Interesting!" Zuo Daoren seemed to be interested in him. He put it down, then looked at him and motioned for him to speak quickly.
Ge Xian coughed and said: "The boy followed Master down the mountain for business. When he arrived in Cangluo County, he stayed for a while and happened to discover a strange phenomenon. Every night at midnight, the spiritual energy would suddenly disappear for a while. Then, I One night, I accidentally saw the strange scene of gas gathering into smoke. I came all the way to Cangluo No. 1 Middle School, and finally found that the smoke came from the fairy cave. I jumped in out of curiosity, and unexpectedly... I couldn't get out. I also experienced fish monsters in rivers and waterways, experienced jungle beast tides, and saw this big snake. Finally, I finally escaped from the barrier and returned to the fairy cave. I planned to leave here, but unexpectedly But I was still sucked in by this beast, and I met the senior unexpectedly. I am truly lucky."
Taoist Zuo twirled his beard and looked at Ge Xian up and down. Surprise and covetousness kept flashing in his eyes. Ge Xian suppressed the discomfort in his heart and thought to himself, would he meet an old immortal with the habit of Longyang?
"What sect are you from?" Zuo Taoist continued to ask.
"I have no family or sect, my master is a casual cultivator, and I call myself a Taoist." Ge Xian immediately pulled out the lie he had made up.
Taoist Zuo frowned, as if he was recalling Taoist Zixu, but there seemed to be no such person, but he still said: "Oh...it turns out he is a disciple of a famous teacher, no wonder he is so good."
"What the hell, is this okay? This old immortal is not lying to me, is he?" Ge Xian pretended to be humble on the surface, but in his heart he was full of curses. The two foxes, one big and one small, were trying to figure each other out.
Afterwards, Zuo Daoren chatted with him for a while as if he was treating his nephew as a junior, and then turned to the main topic: "Good nephew..."
In terms of self-improvement, Ge Xian lamented that he was inferior. In less than an hour, he became the nephew of the left Taoist.
"What do you say to me, senior? As long as I can get out, I will do whatever it takes." Ge Xian knew that if he didn't act more cowardly at this time, the other party might turn against him and show it.
Sure enough, when Taoist Zuo heard this, he immediately showed a satisfied smile, twirled his beard and said: "Originally, I couldn't go out alone, but who knew that God has eyes? After my nephew came here, I had a way. You Don't worry, nephew, let me do the most dangerous work, you just need to stay here to guard this concentration needle."
"What is the Calming Needle?" Ge Xian curiously followed Taoist Zuo and came to a place on the ground in the cave. He found that there was an extra tail end of a nail on it, and most of it had sunk inside.
The nail seemed to contain a powerful force, and its tail was still trembling slightly. With this trembling, the entire cave seemed to be swaying gently.
"This is a magic weapon that I refined. It's called the Calming Needle. It can be used to deal with innate monsters. However, this big snake is the guardian monster of this immortal cave. It is extremely ferocious and is not an ordinary innate monster. Beast. After I was swallowed by it, I used this concentration needle to carve out a cave in its body, which is here." Zuo Taoist pointed at the hole above and said proudly.
Ge Xian also had to admire that although he relied on a magic weapon, a powerful innate magic weapon, it was quite remarkable that he could remain calm in the face of danger and persist until now. If he was swallowed alone, he didn't know how long he could hold on, although he was very firm to Shushu when he was outside just now.
"Senior, do you have any ideas? Tell me, do you just need me to guard this nail?" Ge Xian decided to take a gamble and cooperate with Zuo Taoist. Both of them are trapped here. Only cooperation can hope.
Taoist Zuo nodded approvingly and said: "I will teach you how to control this magic weapon later. However, because your cultivation is still shallow, the time you can use this magic weapon is limited. It is estimated that it can last up to one stick of incense, which is about a moment. Zhong. I will use the out-of-body technique to fight with this beast outside. You stay here to control the concentration needle and take good care of my body at the same time."
Ge Xian couldn't help but nod. Since the other party was willing to leave his body behind, he probably wouldn't abandon him. Besides, since he had the ability to leave, he wouldn't be trapped here.
"When I have injured this beast to a certain extent, you will listen to my order and activate the calming needle, and you will definitely give it a fatal blow. We can get out of trouble as long as we work together inside and outside, but you must remember not to be too early or miss it When it comes to starting, you must listen to my orders, do you understand?" Zuo Daoren warned seriously.
Ge Xian immediately raised three fingers and swore: "Senior, don't worry, this battle is about our life and death. I will never disobey my senior's orders, otherwise I will be punished by heaven and earth."
"Okay, sit down and I'll teach you this control method and give you some spiritual stones. I think the spiritual stones you just had are only at the middle level. When the time comes, it won't be enough to activate this concentration needle. You need to Please add in time, I have some high-grade spiritual stones here, they are not of much use to me anyway, so I will give you some." After saying that, Taoist Zuo flicked his sleeves, and suddenly a stream of spiritual light flew out, turning into more than ten brick-sized spiritual stones. The stone fell in front of Ge Xian.
Ge Xian picked up this high-grade spiritual stone and asked in surprise: "Senior, did you really give me so much?"
"Just take it for you. What nonsense, I have more than this, and a mere high-grade spiritual stone is nothing." Zuo Taoist said with disdain on his face, and Ge Xian was immediately happy to put the high-grade spiritual stones one by one into the package. .
The spiritual stone that he was originally reluctant to use was unexpectedly considered to be just a middle-grade stone in the eyes of Taoist Zuo. As expected, the difference between him and the big brother was too great. He was still a poor monk among monks.
Afterwards, he began to accept the "Calling Needle Control Formula" taught to him by Zuo Taoist. The formula was surprisingly short, only more than thirty words, but Zuo Taoist then spent nearly two hours explaining these more than thirty words. During this period, there was no shortage of quotations from classics, comparable to a combination of Chinese language and history teachers.
"Do you understand?" Seeing Ge Xian's silence, Taoist Zuo was a little worried that he might not understand.
Unexpectedly, Ge Xian raised his head, nodded silently, and said: "Senior has explained it in such detail, but I, the pharmacist, still can't understand it. Isn't he a fool?"
"Haha..." This was the first time that Taoist Zuo saw such a confident "disciple", so he spoke carefully. As a result, Ge Xian answered right, and he could also draw inferences from one instance, which made Taoist Zuo look at him with admiration.
In fact, the key to this concentration needle lies in the word "神", which refers to two things. One is the physical "神" which refers to the nervous tissue of the serpent, and the other "神" is an imaginary existence, which refers to the spirit of the serpent. will.
The control of the Calming Needle requires working on the nervous tissue, manipulating and manipulating the snake's mind and body, so that the spirit and will of the big snake are affected, and even collapses, so that the Taoist can kill it at that time.
But it sounds simple, but in fact it is not easy to do it. After all, once Ge Xian activates the concentration needle, he will be attacked by the big snake. On the one hand, this attack comes from the internal counterattack of the big snake's body.
The other part comes from the slaves who live in the body of the big snake. There are a lot of these slaves. Although their strength is not at the innate level, they are not weaker than Ge Xian.
"I need you to hold on to one stick of incense. As long as you give me one stick of incense time, I will definitely be able to kill this rotten snake." Zuo Taoist said with some ferocity, looking at Ge Xian with a scary look.
Ge Xian said in embarrassment: "Senior, I want to do it too, but you know that my strength is limited. Just controlling this concentration needle is the limit. It also distracts me from dealing with those parasitic monsters. Is it a bit difficult?"
"This..." Zuo Daoren seemed to feel something was wrong and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After a while, Zuo Daoren seemed to have made up his mind, and took out something from his wishful package and handed it to him, saying: "This is a magic weapon I obtained by chance, so I will lend it to you first. This magic weapon is a defensive magic weapon. Once deployed, it is enough to withstand the attacks of innate monks. However, due to your strength, it cannot be used for a long time, so do not use it unless it is absolutely necessary. Once used once, it must be at least half an hour before it can be used again. Activation, do you understand?" Then, he told him how to activate this magic weapon called "Glazed Vajra Cover".
Ge Xian was overjoyed and quickly memorized it. In less than half a day, he mastered its general effects, which made Zuo Daoist astonished.
After everything was ready, Ge Xian thought he would take action immediately, but Zuo Taoist shook his head and asked him to wait, so Ge Xian had no choice but to obey.
