Too Reckless

Vol 13 Chapter 12: river crab

thump--

Along the bright spring sand river, the water splashed, and a few wild ducks that lived in the reeds flew away.

Zuo Lingquan plunged into the river with his head, and his naturally hydrophilic physique made him turn into a raptor crossing the river when he entered the water, and his movements were a bit faster than on land.

It was noon, the sun was overhead, the river more than three feet deep was not dim, and the water plants and rotten trees at the bottom of the river could be seen.

Zuo Lingquan followed the perception and quickly rushed to Jiang Xin, but within two breaths, he found a ghostly shadow wandering more than a hundred feet away.

Zuo Lingquan thought it was an old turtle at the bottom of the river, but when he took a closer look, he found that the shadow in front was crawling horizontally at the bottom of the river, its eight legs were dark red, and two pairs of pliers were faintly visible. With a metallic luster, it is a big river crab that has been practicing for an unknown number of years.

Xie Qiutao is also water-friendly. After entering the river, she moves swiftly and moves smoothly without losing speed, just like a dragon girl strolling leisurely in the Dragon Palace; after seeing the appearance of the monster, she is slightly surprised:

"Gulugulu...cough—what a big crab! No wonder the dumpling couldn't hold back..."

After eating the autumn crabs from Chunchao Lake in Qianqiu Yuefu, the dumplings had no resistance to the big crabs. At this time, they were chasing them on the water, and even rushed in front of the two of them. They were probably thinking about steaming or braised.

"Duanzi, go back."

Zuo Lingquan saw that the crab's movements were too fast and violent. If he didn't know the details, he would still be cautious, let the dumpling return to Jingxing, and then split up with Xie Qiutao. .

The big river crab who escaped at the bottom of the river is not low in intelligence. It seems that he has long thought of being caught by hunters and made some traps at the bottom of the river in advance; but there is no elder to teach him to grow up on his own, and what he can figure out is still in front of the human race. It seems too child's play, just a few feet-bound water plants, a round stone about the size of a river crab, and eight legs placed with wooden sticks as disguise, etc., they can't stop the two at all.

Zuo Lingquan chased at the bottom of the river for about two miles. After confirming that the escaping crab essence was not dangerous, he suddenly increased the speed, only to hear a muffled sound of "Boom", and the bottom of the river was directly rushed out of a hole, and the blink of an eye was over. In front of Jiangdao.

The big crab that fled didn't respond slowly, seeing Zuo Lingquan rushing to him, he raised the crab claws and wanted to fight back.

Zuo Lingquan's eyesight can be described as clumsy in the attack of the crab claws, but to his surprise, at the same time as the black crab claws were lifted, a white streamer lit up on the crab armor, which was visible to the naked eye and converged on the crab claws.

boom -

At the moment when the crab claws closed, the cyan thunder burst at the bottom of the river, instantly hitting Zuo Lingquan who was blocking the way.

Zuo Lingquan was a little surprised, but not too afraid.

Birds, beasts and humans are very different in talent. Turtle spirits in the secluded environment may be difficult for jade-level monks to break defenses; but the Lord of Heaven treats the common people equally. No big difference.

Crabs belong to the genus of scale armor. Like turtles, they take the same route of 'stacking armor', and their combat power is slightly higher, but that's it. It is far inferior to the genus of Jiaolong. If Zuo Lingquan's arrogance of a human race can be brought down, it is impossible for the human race to become the ruler of Jiuzhou.

When he sensed the crab mobilized the power of heaven and earth, Zuo Lingquan was already on guard, and the green thunder with the thickness of his wrist struck, only hitting the Xuanming sword in his hand, and his movements were not even the slightest slowness.

In the back, Xie Qiutao had already jumped up, took the opportunity to smash the crab armor with a hammer, and made a loud noise of 'blocking--'.

The crab armor exploded with sparks on the bottom of the water. The texture was as hard as iron and stone, and there were no cracks. However, the river crab, which was only the size of a grinding disc, was directly smashed into the mud at the bottom of the river by Juli, and a large pit with a radius of more than 10 meters was knocked out at the bottom of the river.

As the water surged, Xie Qiutao took advantage of the victory to pursue and attacked, holding the pipa upside down and wanting to do it again, but Zuo Lingquan, who was holding his sword and encircled, suddenly said:

"etc."

Xie Qiutao stopped in a hurry in the water, guarding the surrounding area, and was about to ask what was wrong, but found that something was wrong with the crab that was smashed into the bottom of the river.

After some hunting, the bottom of the river has become muddy water, but the crabs at the bottom of the pit can still be seen clearly.

The crimson-colored big crab didn't fight back, but lay down on the ground, nodding awkwardly with a clumsy motion. In his black bead-like eyes, he could clearly see the emotion of fear.

Although the crab essence is clumsy and funny, it can be seen that he is learning to kowtow. Xie Qiutao was stunned for a moment. Seeing this, he put down the iron pipa first, and asked in a deep voice:

"Bold evildoer, are you convinced?"

The crab's intelligence has been opened, and it lives near the gathering place of the people.

Zuo Lingquan put away the Xuanming sword and shrugged slightly:

"Looks like it's taken."

Seeing that the storm at the bottom of the river stopped, Tang Jingxuan and Tuanzi also floated over. They didn't like going into the water, so they stood on the water.

The dumpling was very excited, with a posture of 'knocking the bowl and waiting for the rice', on the water: "jijiji~..." Circling in circles.

It was the first time that Tang Jingshen saw such a big crab, and she was a little afraid, and asked:

"What should I do now? I'm afraid I can't find such a big pot after steaming the dumplings..."

Xie Qiutao really wanted to steam the big crab, feed the meat to the dumplings, and sell the crab shells to make armor. It is estimated that he could make a lot of money.

However, according to the rules of the right way to eliminate demons, one must be careful when killing living beings. Birds and beasts have cultivated for thousands of years, which is far more difficult than that of human races. In order to cut off their avenues for the sake of their fur, it violates the concept of 'immortals are precious' and destroys the balance of nature. The birds and beasts that bring disaster to the common people still focus on 'education for good'.

This big crab lives in the Shajiang River and only stole some quirky objects. Obviously, it is not a crime to die. Xie Qiutao hesitated and looked at Zuo Lingquan:

"This is Posuo Continent. There are demons everywhere. If you let it go, no one will teach you, and you will definitely become a demon clan in the future. What should you do now?"

Zuo Lingquan saw that this crab spirit has been learning to kowtow and beg for mercy, and it is not easy to kill, so he shook his head and said:

"According to the rules, first take it to Chunlu Peak to return to life, um... find someone to give it to Wang Rui or Lao Cheng as a spiritual pet, they should not dislike the spirit beasts in the secluded realm."

"Gu..."

The dumpling suddenly became ill, and whispered 'gugu', presumably saying: "What a hassle, why don't you just stew...".

The crab spirit who begged for mercy at the bottom of the river could understand the meaning of the words of the two, and there was a look of reluctance in his eyes, and he moved the crab's legs.

Seeing this, Xie Qiutao brought up the iron pipa again: "You crab, you are in the midst of blessings and do not know your blessings. If it wasn't for us who came today, you would have become a steamed crab. If you go out and study hard in the future, maybe you will be able to get a great road to the sky. …”

The intelligence of the big river crab is estimated to be equivalent to that of a seven or eight-year-old child. Seeing this, he did not dare to run. After being trained for a while, he looked somewhere in Jiang Xin.

Zuo Lingquan and Danzi have been staying for a long time, and can roughly understand the simple meaning of birds and beasts, get out of the way, and signal the crabs to pass.

The crab moved cautiously a few times, and crawled towards the center of the river. The speed was not slow. In about half an hour, it came to a bend in the Shajiang River. There was a hole under the stone cliff on the bank.

Zuo Lingquan followed and entered the hole, and it could be seen that there was a three-zhang-square hollow inside, which was hard chiseled out by crab claws.

Xie Qiutao came in with the purpose to see if this big crab had collected any treasures to give her as a gift, but after scanning around, she was very disappointed:

"Why are you stealing these things? You don't need them. If you honestly confess to practicing in the cave, you won't be discovered..."

The big crab has already opened the wisdom. Like the dumplings, he must have his own hobbies. Even if Xie Qiutao gave him a lesson, he still rummaged through the junk pile and found a wooden box for jewelry, using crab claws. Carefully guard it and put it under the body.

Xie Qiutao blinked, put on a majestic look, and stretched out his right hand:

"Let me see something."

The big crab cared about the wooden box very much and was reluctant, but because of the lustful power of the couple in front of him, he still put the box on the ground.

Xie Qiutao picked up the wooden box and opened it to find four porcelain vases inside.

The porcelain bottle was blue in color and made of a special material. It looked like a bottle containing medicinal herbs, but when the bottle was opened, it was empty inside. Zuo Lingquan couldn't see what it contained before.

"What is this?"

"This is……"

Xie Qiutao picked up the bottle and looked at it carefully, then leaned over to the mouth of the bottle to smell it, pondered for a while, and said thoughtfully:

"It's an elixir, but the medicine has a special taste. It should contain dragon tendons and vines. The role of dragon tendons and vines is to expand qi and blood meridians. I only use this thing as medicine, and it is mostly used when the mirror is broken... This big crab, it should be a coincidence, who stole this medicine pill, carried it over and didn't die, luckily opened the spirit..."

After the spirit beasts accidentally eat the treasures of heaven and earth, they will be very fond of the things they eat, and they will try to collect them in the rest of their lives. Even if they are not needed, they will be kept by their side as patron saints.

The big crab cares so much about these empty bottles, so it is easy to guess the source of his practice.

Zuo Lingquan looked at it a little and found that several bottles were different old and new, and the time difference was probably a hundred years. It must not have been picked up once, but the styles were the same. After thinking about it, he handed the jewelry box to the big crab and asked:

"Where did you find these bottles?"

The big crab hurriedly put away the jewelry box, lifted the crab claws, and pointed to the upper reaches of the Shajiang River.

It is impossible for a cultivator to eat the medicinal pills to assist in breaking the boundary in an unsafe place. The same is true for the demon clan. The place where you can pick up this kind of bottle is most likely near the demon cultivator's lair.

Zuo Lingquan took out the map of Fulin Country from Linglong Pavilion and went upstream along the Shajiang River to look for suspicious locations.

However, the upper reaches of the Shajiang River are within the sphere of influence of the righteous path. If there are monster nests, they have been cleaned up long ago. There is no special mark on the map given by Wangchuan City.

Xie Qiutao leaned over to look at it, and saw the word "Hump Ridge" next to a tributary of the Shajiang River, and was slightly taken aback:

"I came over on the ferry, and I heard that there is something strange on the side of Hump Ridge. It seems that someone bumped into a grave, and then disappeared again..."

Zuo Lingquan had no other clues~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and put away the map:

"Then there is a high probability that it is here, let's go and have a look..."

When I wrote this today, I called my family and said that the blind date was coming to the city and asked Ah Guan to pick it up, so I could only update so much;

I have to ask for a day off tomorrow, and it will be over within the year after this matter is done.

It’s best for everyone to wait until the end of the book. In reality, you have to ask for leave. If you do, you feel sorry for the readers. You hurriedly wrote up the number of words to make up an update. The writing was short and boring, which made the readers and authors feel uncomfortable or2.
