Chapter 24: The Descendants of Zatogurah

 There are many frogs on Phuket Island.

For example, the tail of the white-billed fish has a cry like a hawk. Eating its meat can cure white tinea disease. Another example is the horn on the head, with an alchemy written on the jaw. If it is dried in the shade at noon on May 5th, it can cure the disease. The "Drum" made by hundreds of soldiers; and the "Shrimp" which is two meters long and breathes red gas from its mouth. It feeds on birds, insects, snakes and rats, and turns into red rock when it is quiet, etc.

Of course, the most common ones are those amphibians with yellow-green skin, noisy and annoying, crawling around in puddles and swamps. And the one raised by Iseni can climb in mid-air, move around quickly, and be picked up by it. A little frog that serves as a messenger.

But none of them can be compared with the one in front of Zheng Qing.

It was squatting on the rocks at the end of the river bend. It was five meters tall, with a wide mouth, big eyes, and a big belly. Its whole body was covered with short black fur, which was slowly blowing in the cold wind.

In fact, it is inaccurate to call it a frog - at best, it only has certain characteristics of a frog - but from another perspective, whether it is the low hum coming from its abdomen or its suspected hibernating characteristics, it makes The distance between it and the frog is a little closer.

"Stand where you are and don't move!"

The old man Bernard Shaw's lips moved slightly, but his voice sounded very clearly in the ears of the two young wizards: "The descendants of Tsathogua prefer silence, whether it is itself or its prey... so you'd better stand still now." Don't move where you are."

The descendant of Tsathogua should be the name of that monster.

The two people who originally planned to sneak back to the cabin heard this, but had to freeze on the spot and looked at the towering figure dozens of meters away with fear. It was quiet all around, even the bells hanging on the bow of the ship were ringing. The copper bell also fell silent.

"What is it?" Zheng Qing asked softly.

The sound was extremely clear in the open environment and spread far across the water.

The giant frog, who was originally sitting on the rock with his eyes closed and meditating, turned his eyes toward the boat, revealing his huge, translucent, golden pupils.

The gaze that fell on the boat through his pupils made the young public-sponsored student feel cold all over.

There was no murderous intent, no cruelty, no violence, but there was no trace of good intentions in those eyes. Through those eyes, Zheng Qing seemed to see a world that was falling towards ruins, as if he saw a mess of things intertwined together. Colorful lines.

His temples beat hard, and a sharp tingling sensation penetrated his skull and cerebral cortex, digging deeply into the depths of his soul.

"Well..." The young wizard covered his head, groaned, and knelt down on the deck.

"I'm Ma Xuanhuang!"

A low curse sound came from the direction of the old boatman, and a dark yellow stream of light came first and hit the giant frog's newly opened eyes in an instant.

"Pop!" The crisp sound of a coin hitting an egg shell reached Zheng Qing's ears. His expression suddenly relaxed, and the sting in his mind went away as quickly as it came. In an instant, he went straight from hell to heaven. He had severe heart palpitations.

From the moment Zheng Qing looked into the giant beast's eyes to the moment he got rid of the soul-piercing pain, the whole process didn't even last five seconds.

Only then did Gypsy react. She squatted down in panic, held Zheng Qing's shoulders with both hands, and asked repeatedly, "What happened? Are you okay?!"

"It's okay," Zheng Qing grinned with a nonchalant smile, "I was just bitten by a mosquito..."

Elena knew that Zheng Qing was comforting her, but she couldn't say anything. She could only frown and complained nervously, "What kind of mosquito can bite you directly on the deck!"

Zheng Qing didn't pay attention to the witch's complaints. He suddenly remembered something.

"Look at my eyes, are they red?" He looked at Elena, his tone a little nervous.

After the first few stimulation headaches, the sequelae of red eyes often appear, which makes Zheng Qing very annoying. Moreover, the recovery time after each time the eyes turn red is getting longer and longer - the most recent time was on the day of heavy snow solar term, he accompanied

Elena went to Linzhong Lake to enjoy the snow, and was affected by the tower in the center of the lake, causing her eyes to turn red.

The sequelae didn't really end until the end of winter hunting, which lasted for almost a month.

So Zheng Qing is very sensitive to this point now.

Elena is naturally aware of this situation.

"Black and white are distinct, very healthy." The witch raised the corner of her mouth and said to herself, "It's not like your eyes will turn red every time you accompany me..."

Zheng Qing silently turned his head and said hey twice, but did not dare to answer.

At this time, silence is the best choice.

The silent river gurgled outside the ship's side, carrying the light ferry boat as it passed the tall poplar trees on the shore.

Because there is a huge curve in front, the water flow is a little turbulent here, so the boat speed is a little faster.

After just a few words, the ferry boat crossed the end of the river bend and began to turn. And the huge creature squatting on the reef appeared in the sight of the two young wizards again.

Only then did Zheng Qing see that the old man's spell just now did not directly hit the giant beast's eye - he had thought that the old man's spell had blown out the eyeballs of the frog monster - the spell just hit the eyeball of the frog monster.

A layer of thin gauze was blocked outside the giant beast's eyes, blocking its sight.

Looking back, the old boatman was holding a pole with both hands, his muscles tensed, and he was staring intently at the giant beast that was slowly reviving at the bend of the river.

"What a ghost." The old man murmured softly, holding his long pole fingers and gently rubbing the bamboo joints between his fingers. "This beast has not opened its eyes once in ten years... Why did it open its eyes in the middle of winter..."

"Let's go down." Elena whispered in Zheng Qing's ear.

Her hands were still holding Zheng Qing's shoulders, and a fragrant and familiar fragrance filled the young wizard's nostrils.

Zheng Qing hesitated for a few seconds - he was not a person who was so passionate that he would risk his own life, and he was very self-aware that he might not be able to help the old boatman on the deck. But standing in the old man's position, if the old boatman really did it later

If you need that 'last straw' help, and there's no one around, that's the worst thing.

From another perspective, if the old boatman is defeated by the monster, can this small ferry and the thin deck of the cabin stop the monster's attack?

Zheng Qing felt that he would rather face the monster and be swallowed by it than hide in the cabin and tremble, praying that nothing would happen when the ship was destroyed.

"Just step back a little." Zheng Qing paused and accepted half of the witch's suggestions - the two of them retracted into the cabin, except that half of his body was exposed outside the cabin, holding the long Remington in his hand.

The rune gun was aimed at the monster across the side of the ship.

"Can you hit it from such a distance?" Elena's slightly worried voice sounded from behind the wizard.

Zheng Qing was full of confidence in this.

"Don't worry," he put his fingers into the gray cloth bag and took out a rune bullet that was covered in red light. "I've hit longer distances... not to mention I used special rune bullets."
