Chapter 177: The Rat's Lair
The bamboo forest is as vast as the sea, a gust of wind blows, and there is the sound of rustling bamboo leaves everywhere.
Xiao Roll crawled unhurriedly, and looked at it from time to time, looking at it, and he was cute.
Zhou Shu watched it crawl for a while, and his previous worries were also put down.
In the Cuiyan Bamboo Forest, there are naturally Cuiyan Bamboo everywhere, he is worried that Xiao Roll will not be able to distinguish it, and when he sees materials with aura, he chases and bumps everywhere, but now it doesn't look like this, after Xiao Roll is promoted, he is also very picky about things with aura, and the general materials are not in his eyes at all.
As he walked, a mound suddenly bulged out in front of him, and a gray pointed head and mung bean-sized eyes came out of it, staring at Xiao Roll a few times, and suddenly jumped out and ran towards Xiao Roll.
It is an arrow rat, about three feet long, but its tail is two feet, and its body is round and fast.
Xiao Roll was stunned for a moment, twitched a few times on his back to the sky, and then shrank into a ball and pretended to be dead.
Zhou Shu couldn't help but be amused, "What are you afraid of? ”
The arrow bamboo rat just ran three feet in front of Xiao Roll, as if it had hit a wall, fell on its head, and then was knocked over by a faint sword light, struggled on the spot a few times, squeaked twice, and then disappeared into the earth.
The surrounding area of Xiao Roll has already been arranged by Zhou Shu with a protective shield, and it is impossible for the arrow bamboo rat to break through.
Zhou Shu fiddled with Xiao Roll a few times, Xiao Roll glared at Zhou Shu dissatisfied, turned over and continued to search.
Not long after, Yang Hei's voice came from afar, "Zhou Shu, there's a hole down here!"
"It's coming!"
Zhou Shu agreed, put Xiao Roll back into the spirit beast bag, and ran to Yang Hei's side.
A large chunk of the ground in front of Yang Hei had been cut off. A hole is clearly exposed.
"It must have been dug by arrows and bamboo rats. But it seems a bit wide. ”
Zhou Shu groaned slightly. The hole was a little different from what he remembered, and judging by his notes, it seemed that the arrow rat should not be so big.
"What's there in the wider, since it is, then I'll dig it down. ”
Yang Hei didn't care, and suddenly there was an extra bone awl in his hand, about two feet long, and the bone joints were layer by layer. It's sharp and bizarre.
Seeing Zhou Shu looking at it, he explained, "The white bone awl, most of the magic weapons in Luowang Valley are made of demon beast bones or even human bones, and they are said to be able to cultivate killing intent, but I don't think so. ”
Zhou Shu nodded, "Understood." ”
In Yang Hei's hands, the white bone cone emitted a cold glow, constantly rising and falling. The drill bit is average, and the hole is quickly enlarged. The two of them walked inside.
Along the way, many arrows and bamboo rats ran around and attacked them, but Zhou Shu only did nothing and did not hurt their lives.
Although the arrow bamboo rat is a first-order demon beast, except for that bit of spiritual intelligence, its strength is not worth mentioning.
The passage winded downward, twisting and turning, and I don't know how many bends they made, and the two came to a rather wide cave.
It's like a warehouse for arrows and bamboo rats, and there are a lot of food such as bamboo roots and Linggu tubers piled up in it, like a hill.
Zhou Shu said happily, "This is it." ”
"It stinks. Yang Hei covered his mouth and nose and shook his head involuntarily.
Indeed, there was a foul smell everywhere, and people wanted to vomit.
"It shouldn't stink, the bamboo rat loves to be clean, and the warehouse is even cleaner. ”
Zhou Shu was a little strange, but soon became excited, "No matter, look for it first." ”
However, after checking it for a while, his face was full of disappointment, and there was nothing of value.
He couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "What's the matter? The nest of the arrow bamboo rat will definitely store a lot of natural treasures, and it is too strange to expect to find Bixin bamboo shoots, but there is nothing but food." ”
In the few notebooks I have read, the cultivators who found the nest of arrows and bamboo rats have more or less sent a penny, however......
Yang Hei pointed to the corner, "There is a hole over there, which is blocked by dirt." ”
His divine sense can penetrate a foot of dirt and find a hole in the sky.
"yes, let's go check it out. ”
Zhou Shu had some hope in his heart and walked over there.
Before he could get closer, the dirt in the corner suddenly fell, and soon a hole was revealed, and a sharp squeak was heard, and before long, a huge mouse came out of the hole, standing on the ground with both feet, his eyes glowing, and staring at the two of them viciously.
This mouse, standing up is only eight feet tall, a real giant rat.
The strangest thing is that it is covered in gray, but the tail is yellow, like full of gold, which is particularly eye-catching.
Yang Hei's expression changed slightly, and his divine sense told him that this mouse was extraordinary, far from being comparable to those arrows and bamboo rats outside, at least it was also a second-order demon beast, and it was very dangerous.
He stood in front of Zhou Shu, "Zhou Shu, you stand back." ”
Zhou Shu didn't seem to hear it, and whispered, "Golden-tailed rat, and the tail has all turned golden, no wonder, no wonder ......"
Yang Hei was quite skeptical, "What is the gold-tailed rat?
"No wonder there are no natural treasures, all of them are eaten by it. ”
Zhou Shu's face showed a bit of hatred, "The golden-tailed rat, known as the rat of rats, is shameless, even stealing the same kind of food, and all the treasures saved by the arrow and bamboo rats have entered its stomach." ”
"Uh, that's disgusting!"
Yang Hei looked at the golden bamboo rat, and there was also a fire in his eyes, "After being killed, can you let it spit out everything?"
"No, it's gone...... You see, its tail has all turned golden, at least it has stolen more than thirty second- and third-order spirit grass spirit fruits to become like this. ”
The golden-tailed rat has a pale golden tail at first, but the more good things it eats, the more intense the color will be, and the mouse in front of him is afraid that it will eat up all the savings of the arrow bamboo rat for decades.
It's a pity and hateful when you think about it.
Zhou Shu shook his head again and again, "What's even more odious is that the golden-tailed rat steals something and doesn't say anything, but it will also pee everywhere and release poison, enclosing the territory so that other people of the same kind can't take things back." ”
"No wonder it stinks, and I can't see any other bamboo rats. ”
Yang Hei nodded, "What now?"
"That's for sure. ”
Zhou Shu nodded vigorously, "Although the golden-tailed rat is useless, that tail is okay, rich in aura, it is a good spiritual food material, it has stolen so many heavenly treasures, I am afraid that the aura in this tail is also incredibly large, it must be boiled and eaten." ”
"If I want to eat you, I won't eat mice. ”
Yang Hei frowned, raised his long knife, and slashed towards the golden-tailed rat.
The mouse was extremely flexible, his body moved a few feet away quickly, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he pounced on Zhou Shu behind him.
Lightning-fast speeds.
It also has a bit of intelligence, and it can be seen that Zhou Shu in the back seems to be a little easier to bully.
"Zhou Shu, get out of the way!"
Yang Hei hurriedly shouted, and rushed over in a few steps, trying to block the gold-tailed rat.
"It's fine. ”
Zhou Shu shook his head at Yang Hei, and stood still in the face of the approaching mouse.
Yang Hei reminded loudly, "It's a second-order demon beast!"
"I know. ”
Zhou Shu smiled, his right fist suddenly became extremely black, and when he punched out, the surrounding air seemed to be pulled, making a crackling and popping sound.
Second-order demon beasts, he has killed enough.
