Volume 1, Huangquan, December, Chapter 145: Tracks of Dogs and Foxes
The crowd was like a pot of boiling water, and everyone was screaming. Everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs. It seemed that just by shouting, they could earn back their bets exponentially. The louder the voice, the more they earned.
It was so noisy that it almost made Dai Luan deaf, not to mention the two frightened monsters.
The strange bird was still confronting it, retreating around the circular field. It was getting closer and closer to Dai Luan, which allowed her to observe it more carefully. Because of its size, every feather on its body was very large.
It was at least as long as her forearm. If you look closely, there are many depressions on the strange bird's body. They are all hairless, exposing the red flesh. Those should be golden feathers that have been plucked out in the past, plus there are many old ones on its body.
Maybe it had been imprisoned, after all, there were still traces of shackles on its ankles. Dai Luan couldn't imagine where it was imprisoned and what kind of abuse it suffered when it was used as a cash cow.
Looking at the somewhat deformed beak and the thick calloused feet, it must have been old before it was sold here and squeezed out of its last value for people's entertainment.
Dai Luan sighed softly. The sigh was so light that it melted into the roar of the crowd like a drop of water flowing into the ocean.
The strange bird suddenly turned to look at her, which startled her.
Then, something even more bizarre happened - the strange bird suddenly turned around and screamed at Dai Luan like crazy. Shan Hai stood up in an instant, even the chair fell over, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to protect Dai Luan.
, Mu Wan also opened his umbrella. But Shan Hai made no other moves, because after he calmed down a little, he remembered that the boundaries in the field were not decoration.
Yijin Zhentian was facing her and let out a strange roar, as if two rough metals were rubbing together, and golden sparks spurted out. More thick black oil overflowed from its mouth, and it was very bright.
It was about to be ignited. A large amount of thick smoke and some broken flames rushed towards Dai Luan intermittently. She was petrified. Fortunately, there was an invisible barrier, and the dangerous substances were separated by the invisible wall of air.
. As soon as they swarm to the edge, they stop there.
The crowd screamed for a while, and then another one - the water tiger suddenly rushed forward, and the strange bird quickly dodged, with the skill of a veteran on the battlefield. But the water tiger was the same, it just bared its teeth and claws in front of them,
They waved their claws wildly and looked over with bared teeth. There was some rumbling sound underground. They didn't know the reason. It might be that the underground river or pool was a little turbulent under the influence of the water tiger.
No one knew why the two monsters suddenly stopped fighting, and something even more shocking happened. The two monsters attacked the barrier here one after another. Although there was no tacit understanding, each accidentally hurt the other, but it was obvious
It can be seen that the two of them are working together, and Chengxin and Dailuan can't get along with her. Everyone present also looked at them, not knowing their origins. And the people around them dispersed. Although they were protected by the barrier,
But under such an impact, they still felt uneasy.
Water and fire alternated, impacting the barrier in this area. Shanhai grabbed Dai Luan's wrist and prepared to pull her away.
Suddenly, a clear gap opened on the invisible wall.
The continuous tempering of high and low temperatures, coupled with violent blows, actually broke the barrier. At first, no one reacted, but soon, the strange bird pecked at the crack with its huge beak, and it became like a spider web.
It generally spread. The sound was not as crisp as breaking glass. It was indescribable, like an instrument outside the human world, emitting a strange hum.
It was as if a bomb had been dropped in the banquet. The crowd dispersed suddenly, with messy footsteps, the collision of wooden chairs, yelling and crying mixed together. Even the voices of men and women could not be distinguished. For a moment, they were unable to
Got away from here.
Zhou Pan suddenly put his hand on Dai Luan's shoulder.
"Don't worry, Taoist Master Lin." Zhou Pan said easily, "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."
Lin Shanhai drew the peach wood sword from Dai Luan and placed it on Zhou Pan's shoulder.
"What the hell is going on with that dress?"
The crowd had almost dispersed, and his voice sounded particularly loud in the empty venue.
"Okay, you dare to use Aluan!" Mu Wan also changed the direction of the umbrella tip.
"I told you, the wings of a kind of monster cicada...but many monsters like to eat them, which is good for recovery. It also has a pungent smell, but humans can't smell it."
Before Shanhai could react, the water tigers were about to attack. But right in front of them, a line of ground fire shot up from the ground. The color of the flames was cold, blocking them like a giant barrier, and also hindering the attacks of monsters.
.Soon, one after another, pillars of fire appeared in the venue, springing up from the ground like bamboo shoots after rain, and penetrated the roof. Broken bricks and rocks fell one after another, and the air was filled with thick dust, which made it difficult to open one's eyes and made it difficult to breathe.
Uncomfortable.
Between this powerful fox fire, the starlight spilling in looked so dim.
The air waves caused their clothes and heads to fly randomly. Zhou Pan's smile was gone, but it looked extremely strange in the firelight. He said calmly:
"Please calm down first and put down your sword."
The fox fire suddenly went out, and from the zenith that was broken in several places, the stars in the sky became brighter, eclipsing the torches in the field. When those fire pillars disappeared, the strange bird in front of them had fallen to the ground. Dai Luan
She tore off the thin clothing and climbed to the edge of the stand in a few steps. Shanhai failed to hold her and hurriedly stepped over the broken chair and ran over with Mu Wan.
The strange bird was still breathing - even very rapidly. But they all knew that this was just its last gasp. A sharp arrow shot through its neck, and the arrow penetrated deeply into the ground, fixing it on the ground.
It must be a fast arrow, and there wasn't even any blood on the tip. They watched as the sticky blood slowly flowed out and flowed down the clean arrow body. The neck of the strange bird was very long but not thick. It was difficult to hit it.
Such a simple thing.
Dai Luan had only heard of such superb shooting skills from Ye Yuejun. They raised their heads, and Zhang Changgong in the stands put the next arrow back into the quiver without changing his expression.
Then he whistled.
There was another troublesome guy on the field - the water tiger seemed to be shaken, and stood up tremblingly again, shaking off the gravel on its body. Its armor was too thick, and if it were just a mortal, there would be nothing that could be done with a long bow.
Zhou Pan is definitely unreliable. Shan Hai and Mu Wan both looked at it and shook their heads, staring at it again.
Its eyes suddenly straightened, and its movements froze in place. It even took two steps back.
"……Huh?"
The three of them all turned around and saw a woman walking slowly down from the top of the stands. Shanhai recognized her. She was the woman who was at the northeast corner of the venue before. She was about thirty years old. This person had a fierce look in her eyes.
, with a determination like a hunter, each step is extremely light, but also extremely steady. She frowned, her expression was serious, and her whole body revealed a stern and decisive temperament.
She makes them easily think of an animal.
The woman suddenly bared her teeth in the direction of the water tiger, with a ferocious look on her face that even Dai Luan was startled. She made a very strange cry. Although it did come from human mouths and was indeed a sound that humans can make,
Very few people would do this. Although the water tiger was a little scared, it roared in demonstration.
The woman made an even more terrifying sound. At that moment, the animal she reminded them of seemed to materialize, and its silhouette opened up behind her for a moment.
Dog, or wolf.
The water tiger whined in grievance and took several steps back.
"What are you doing standing there, pull it back!" Zhang Changgong shouted from above. The other workers who had not had time to escape and were hiding ran out one after another, hurriedly grabbing tools and dragging it into the passage. Zhang Changgong took a look and walked away with the bow and arrow.
.
The woman walked down and passed by the transparent gauze spread on the ground. She picked it up and smelled it, then walked over with it, crossed her arms, and looked at the boat provocatively.
"Monster? What are you here to do? Save people or destroy things?"
"I'm looking for someone."
"Looking for someone?" The woman raised her eyebrows slightly, "Are you looking for monsters?"
"No, it's a human being." Zhou Dan rolled his eyes slightly as if remembering, "Well, it must be a human being."
"I'm just talking weird things. Are you going to get out by yourself and vow to never leave this place again, or are you going to stay and never think about leaving again?"
The woman did save them once. Judging from the shocking power, she did have the capital to be arrogant. What's more, Zhou Pan also used Dai Luan to cause trouble. Shan Hai and the others had no intention of intervening in this tense conversation.
However, in the face of such provocation, Zhou Dan was unexpectedly shocked.
"I'm looking for someone for a friend. If possible, I want to take that person away. I miss you..."
"Or the third option, I invite you out?" The woman did not listen to him.
Zhou Pan sighed softly: "Girl, if you are like this, we can't talk any more."
"This is not the place you should come to in the first place. Don't fucking ruin the boss's business."
"The boss you are talking about is the one who shot the arrow just now, or is there someone else, or... the original owner of this place?"
"Shut up. There is only one boss in the dog farm!"
"Is that person's name Kari Gyoutaku?"
Dai Luan's long mouth was barely closed.
Shan Hai interrupted in confusion: "What, what did you say..."
"Eh? Didn't I tell you?" Zhou Pan turned around, "The dog farm belongs to the property of the Shadow Pavilion. This matter..."
Mu Wan yelled at him loudly, but he turned back calmly.
"Well... back to the topic just now. I want to find someone, and the girl can definitely help me. And from the looks of it, you are very familiar with that person... I haven't asked for your name yet?"
"There is no need for me to declare my family status to monsters."
"Alas -" Zhou Pan sighed heavily, "You were obviously saved by a monster, but now you are doing this kind of thing in a place like this. If your adoptive mother is still alive, she will definitely be sad... You said so?
Right, Tan Ge?"
The woman's brows furrowed even more tightly. Her expression was ugly, and she bit her lip, but her fangs were still exposed. Such a demonstration was very limited, and Zhou Pan's expression remained unchanged. After all, dogs and foxes are fundamentally the same.
's ancestors.
A white light flashed from Shan Hai's mind.
This name is very familiar, very familiar.
Monster and foster mother...
Tan Ge...
Liangyue-kun......
"You, you are..." Dai Luan stretched out his hand first and pointed at the woman, "You were Mr. Liangyue back then...you were -"
