It is not convenient to speak underwater. If you open your mouth, you will inevitably drink dirty water. You can only communicate with gestures or sounds. When Zhao Zheng heard Zi Huan’s applause, he guessed that he might have discovered something. His heart skipped a beat and he swam over immediately.
past.
Zihua waved to Zhao Zheng, and then pointed to her feet. There was a depression there, which was filled with various aquatic plants. Among them, three plants were the most special. They were shaped like lotuses. They were short and clinging to the ground.
The disk and leaves are both dark.
Zhao Zheng took a closer look and recognized that this was the Ink Jade Nine-seeded Lotus, and he found three of them at once! He was overjoyed, and he quickly rushed forward and got closer to take a look.
Two of these three ink jade lotus plants are very large and have already grown. Each has nine black pearl-like black lotus seeds on the lotus disk. The other one is relatively small, not much bigger than a palm.
Only four black lotus seeds have grown, and they are still a few years away from being fully grown.
The black lotus seeds produced by the Black Lotus are only effective after they have matured. The black lotus seeds that have not grown are not only ineffective, but also toxic and of no value.
Zhao Zheng turned around and gave Zi Hua a thumbs up to express encouragement. Then he turned back and reached out to grab the two grown black jade nine-flowered lotuses. Just as his hand touched the black jade nine-flowered lotus.
When the lotus disk was lifted, two rapid sounds of gold and iron clashing suddenly came from the surroundings, and then an undercurrent with evil intentions surged from the bottom of the lake.
"Ding! Ding!"
The sound echoed far away at the bottom of the lake.
At the same time, the Zichu sword beside Zhao Zheng also behaved strangely. The sword kept shaking and making a buzzing sound.
Zhao Zheng increased his vigilance. He retracted his hand and looked in the direction where the crisp sound came from.
It turned out that the crisp sound was caused by the sword slave touching the blades of two swords. The purpose was to warn Zhao Zheng and the two of them that an uninvited guest was coming.
Deep in the bottom of the lake, an undercurrent moves from far to near, becoming more and more turbulent. In the undercurrent, a fish-shaped black shadow emerges. The exact size is unclear for the time being, but it is at least the size of an old cow!
There shouldn't be any other monsters in this water area. This uninvited guest must be the notorious ghost fish!
I don't know whether it was the noise made by the three people or the applause from Zihua that alerted the ghost-headed fish and attracted it over.
Zhao Zheng was just stunned for a moment, but he was not afraid at all. He calmly grabbed the Zichu sword floating beside him, raised the sword and concentrated, waiting for the ghost fish to come and die.
The ghost-headed fish suddenly accelerated its swimming speed, drew a water line in the water, and rushed towards the nearest sword slave. This was really the wrong choice. After rushing close, everyone finally saw its full picture clearly.
It is worthy of being called a ghost-headed fish. Its head looks like an evil ghost, with pits and pits on it. It suddenly looks thick and thick. Its slightly open mouth is full of sharp teeth, and a scarlet color appears deep in the mouth.
The sword slave was not afraid at all. He made a finger gesture with his hands and pointed hard at the ghost-headed fish. The two swords hanging beside him struck out, turning into two cold rays, and they stabbed the ghost-headed fish on the head.
!
Just two popping sounds were heard, and two balls of blood came out of the head of the ghost fish. It was so painful that it shook its head and tail, shaking the bottom of the lake. Because the skull of the ghost fish was very hard, the two swords could not completely penetrate it.
He didn't wear it, but inserted it hard on it.
The sword slave was a little surprised when he saw that the two swords failed to kill the ghost fish. He turned his hands up and controlled the two swords to pull out the ghost fish's head, and then lowered it again, controlling the two swords.
Stab again.
The two swords increased their strength, but because the ghost-headed fish was tumbling around, they failed to hit the right place. One sword missed the target, and the other sword pierced the ghost-headed fish's head. The ghost-headed fish's head was smaller than
The stone is still somewhat hard, and it is the strongest part of the body. It is very difficult for stabbing to be effective.
Zhao Zheng saw that the sword slave was having trouble fighting, so he held the Zichu sword tightly and swam over to help. He swam all the way to two feet away from the ghost-headed fish, pointed the sword in his hand at the ghost-headed fish, and took aim with his eyes focused on the ghost-headed fish.
The sword on his head tumbled wildly, and suddenly swam in one direction. Zhao Zheng seized the opportunity and thrust out the sword suddenly. A golden sword energy penetrated the bottom of the lake, hit the fish's mouth, and stabbed it in hard.
.
No matter how hard the body surface of the ghost-headed fish is, it must still be soft in the mouth. This sword energy directly penetrated to the bottom and hit its vital part. It suddenly stopped, its body swayed violently twice, and the fish's tail drooped, completely helpless.
Moved.
Seeing that the ghost-headed fish was dead, the sword slave reached out and pulled back the sword stuck in the fish's head.
Zhao Zheng gestured to the sword slave, then swam to the depression at the bottom of the lake again, pulled out the two mature black jade lotus plants, and stuffed them into the big bag he had prepared early in the morning. The one that had not grown yet
The black jade lotus has no medicinal effect and cannot be cultivated artificially, so he did not move it and allowed it to continue to grow at the bottom of the lake to benefit future generations.
There may be other black jade lotus growing around here, and the three of them continued to search at the bottom of the lake. However, the black jade lotus was not found, but more ghost fish were attracted by the bloody smell. First one came
, later two came at once. The first one was killed by the sword slave who imitated Zhao Zheng's technique and stabbed his mouth with two swords. The second two were shared by Zhao Zheng and Zi Huan, and they also shared one with the previous one.
Both of the same kind will be killed.
At this time, Zhao Zheng had run out of air in his stomach and could no longer continue searching. He could only gesture to the two of them to swim up and return to the lake together. He spit out the turbid air in his stomach on the lake.
, I took a few big gulps of new air into my stomach, which finally relieved the feeling of suffocation.
"Zhao Zheng, show me the black jade lotus that you picked. I have only heard of this kind of treasure before, but I have never seen it with my own eyes." Sword Slave flew to stand on the water and pointed towards it.
Zhao Zheng stretched out his hand and said.
Zhao Zheng couldn't levitate in the air yet, so he could only continue to soak in the water. He took off the bag tied around his waist, opened the bag, took out the black jade nine-seed lotus inside, and handed them to the sword slaves respectively.
Follow Zihua and let these two people watch.
The two of them took the black lotus disk and looked left and right, and even raised their noses to smell it twice. They found that this plant was fragrant and smelled very good. It was indeed something extraordinary.
Zihua loves money as much as her life, and she also knows a little about the prices of various treasures. She shook the ink jade nine-seed lotus in her hand and said with a smile: "The price of this medicinal material is not low. Just one black lotus seed is enough."
It can sell for tens of thousands of taels of snowflake silver. And there are many people rushing to buy it."
"There are too many despicable people in the world. These people love to use poison to harm others, so this antidote is so popular." Zhao Zhengdao.
"The devil is as high as the road, and there is an antidote to poison. Things in the world are really wonderful."
"Hopefully we don't need these antidotes one day."
"I hope so." Zihua returned the ink jade lotus to Zhao Zheng, turned his gaze to the bottom of the lake again, and suggested, "Don't miss it if you pass by. These ink jade lotuses are so precious, let's go down and visit them again.
The transfer has been completed, but I haven’t been able to catch a few more plants.”
"The output of the black jade lotus is very small. It's lucky to be able to pick two. It's better not to have too much hope. Not to mention finding a few more. Even if you find one or two more, you're lucky." Zhao Zhengyao
He shook his head.
"I feel like I'm lucky today. It doesn't hurt to go down and have a bump." Zihua took a deep breath and took the lead to dive into the water again.
The three people went into the water for the second time and returned to the vicinity of the previous depression. They started searching the surrounding area.
At this time, the dead ghost fish had sunk to the bottom of the lake, and the blood from the wounds had floated into the lake. This gave the surrounding lake a smell of blood. This smell of blood was very noticeable to other ghost fish.
For fish, it is undoubtedly very tempting.
Not long after the three people searched, the surrounding lake water suddenly became restless, and several undercurrents surged violently, violently impacting the three people's bodies, causing them to deviate from their original swimming direction. The strength of the undercurrent this time was far greater than
The undercurrent set off by the ghost fish swimming just now.
The sword slave controlled the two swords to collide at the bottom of the lake and issued a warning.
Zhao Zheng held the Zichu sword tightly and was on alert. Judging from the strength of the undercurrent, there must be a lot of ghost fish attacking this time, at least three.
This blood-stained lake is not very big and cannot support too many ghost fish. After killing these three, it is estimated that the ghost fish at the bottom of the lake will become extinct. If this is true, it will benefit the people here.
No more people will be eaten by ghost fish.
Just when Zhao Zheng was thinking wildly, the undercurrent became more turbulent. The bottom of the lake was like boiling water, surging and rising and falling. This meant that the danger was getting closer and closer to the three of them.
In the dark water, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared, three times larger than an ox. What's even stranger is that no matter how you look at it, this black shadow is just a whole body, not three ghost-headed fish swimming in parallel.
!
Zhao Zheng looked at the black shadow, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt something was fishy.
Sure enough, when the black shadow got closer, it revealed its true appearance. It turned out that there was only one ghost-headed fish instead of three ghost-headed fish! This one ghost-headed fish was bigger than the three ghost-headed fish put together. No wonder it had the power to turn the world upside down.
.This ghost-headed fish is obviously beyond the normal size of the ghost-headed fish, and it seems to be a strange species in this group.
There must be a difference between this world and the earth. There is a certain chance that wolves, insects, tigers and leopards will have monsters and alien species, which are either larger than usual or more ferocious than usual. This may even happen to people in this world.
, a weirdo suddenly appeared who was very different from a normal person.
Alien species that emerge from beasts and monsters are often much more powerful than their ordinary counterparts. This can be seen from the huge size of this ghost-headed fish.
Even Zhao Zheng didn't know how strong this ghost-headed fish mutant was. Before he was sure, he could only avoid the sharp edge and swam to the side.
The sword slave was highly cultivated and had a magic weapon in his hand. He was not intimidated by the size of the alien fish. He still controlled the two swords and attacked. He stabbed the big mouth of the alien fish with one sword and used
Another sword blocked the path of the alien fish.
The speed of these two swords was fast enough, but just as the ghost-headed fish made a diving action, it could barely avoid the two swords. The sword slave's fingers were wrapped around each other, and he used his internal force to pull the two swords to change direction, and once again
He stabbed the ghost-headed fish, but the head was all stuck on the extremely hard scales, and it had no effect at all.
The ghost-headed fish shook its head and tail, swayed its body, rushed towards the sword slave, and opened its huge mouth. Its mouth was full of yellowed fangs, and the largest tooth was as long as an ivory. If it bites a person, it will
Enough to tear a person in half.
Facing the big mouth, the sword slave's expression remained unchanged. He calmly took off the sword box, pointed it at the big mouth in front of him, slapped the side of the sword box, and released all the swords hidden inside. This time, he used
There were almost all the swords in the sword box, except for the general's sword, which was kept at the bottom of the box.
A sword turned into a rainbow, and shot into the big mouth of the ghost fish. Some of them hit the fangs, and some hit the head. Only three swords successfully pierced the flesh of the mouth.
superior.
If it were an ordinary ghost-headed fish, it would be enough to be pierced by these three swords. But this ghost-headed fish, even the meat in its mouth is hard, and it actually resisted the thrusts of the three swords.
Although he was injured, he did not die on the spot, showing his terrifying vitality.
After being attacked, the ghost-headed fish became more ferocious and continued to sprint towards the sword slave, stirring up undercurrents.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the sword slave kicked the water suddenly with his feet, and two internal forces exploded under his feet, pushing him upwards quickly, narrowly avoiding the terrifying blow of the ghost fish.
Zihua kept holding the keel whip at the side. Seeing that the sword slave was in danger, she swung the whip violently towards the path that the ghost fish must pass. As a result, it was slightly slower than the swimming speed of the ghost fish, and it was only a whip.
It only reached the tail of the ghost-headed fish. This whip knocked off several scales with flesh and blood, each of which was the size of a shell.
The ghost-headed fish flew into the air with one blow, opened and closed its big mouth, and bit the three swords in its mouth to twists and turns. One sword fell from the wound and fell to the bottom of the lake. The other two swords were actually killed by the ghost.
The head fish swallowed it alive!
The sword slave lost his composure just now, and his expression changed slightly. He suddenly clasped his hands together, used his inner strength to hold all the swords at the bottom of the lake, and pulled them all to his side. He put these swords into the sword box one by one, except for the
He grabbed a high-quality sword in his hand.
Using internal strength to wield a sword may look fancy, but its power is very limited. If a warrior wants to exert his maximum strength, he still has to swing the sword with his own hands. The sword slave grabbed the sword with his hand, which means that he dare not underestimate the disturbance at the bottom of the lake.
A beast.
Through the close combat between the Sword Slave and the Ghost-headed Fish mutant just now, Zhao Zheng roughly figured out the strength of this thing and had a good idea of it.
This ghost-headed fish has rough skin and thick flesh. It is almost impossible to kill it in one fell swoop. You can only create more wounds and drain away its life little by little.
Zhao Zheng made up his mind, shook the Zichu Sword in his hand, and let out a clear sound. He used his voice to signal to his two companions, indicating that he planned to rush over to find a bloody fight with the ghost fish, and asked his two companions to weigh it carefully.
Don't accidentally hurt him. Swords have no eyes, let alone at the bottom of this dark lake. This kind of reminder is very necessary.
The other two people heard the sound and glanced at Zhao Zheng, pressed down the weapons in their hands, swam to Zhao Zheng's side, and did not take action rashly again.
Zhao Zheng swung his legs, drew a water line on the bottom of the lake, and boldly rushed towards the ghost fish. (To be continued...)
