The mole beast fell to the bottom of the ditch, splashing water high up. It was a little confused and quietly stuck its head out. Before it could see what was happening outside, the vampire vines wrapped around it.
It quickly retracted its head and tried to leave, but found itself stuck and unable to move.
The vampire vines had taken the opportunity to wrap around the turtle and reached in through the holes in the shell, entangling the molehill hidden in the shell.
It was so hungry, and driven by its survival instinct, it bit the vampire vine that was reaching out to it, and began to eat it with a crunch, enduring the pain.
Thanks to its good teeth, it can bite the vampire vine which is as tough as steel wire.
The vampire vine is grown from diluted spiritual spring water and can be considered a spiritual plant. It contains spiritual energy. Although it tastes a bit unpalatable, it is nutritious and filling.
The molehill was eating happily.
Although the vampire vine was not intelligent, it knew how to seek benefits and avoid harm. It quickly retracted the vine that it had bitten, and on the other hand, it stepped up its efforts to break through the mole beast's defense and suck its blood.
Of course, the mole beast would not sit still and wait for death. It moved its head flexibly in its shell, biting off the vampire vines wrapped around its body and swallowing them.
The vampire vine is also tenacious. If it can't break through here, it will change direction. In short, it will never let go of the prey that breaks into its territory!
The mole beast continued to eat the vampire vines, which soothed its growling stomach. At the same time, the spiritual energy contained in the vampire vines also restored some of its vitality.
But more and more vampire vines wrapped around it, making it unable to leave. If this continued, it would be trapped here and die sooner or later.
Although the vampire vines surrounded the mole beast layer by layer, they were still unable to break through its defenses.
For a moment, the two were deadlocked.
After a night, the sky became bright.
A few people came into the vegetable garden, they were Xue Huan's family.
They came to pick peppers.
I don’t know if it’s because of the spiritual spring water, but the pepper seedlings grew taller and more lush, almost becoming pepper trees, with peppers growing on them one after another.
Xue's mother and the others had never seen peppers before and had no idea what peppers looked like under normal conditions, so they were very happy about this situation. After all, the more peppers they grew, the greater their harvest would be.
Who doesn’t like a good harvest?
Xue Huan didn't know how to explain, so she let Xue's mother and the others continue to misunderstand.
Even if someone else discovers peppers and successfully grows them in the future, but they grow differently from hers, she can explain that they are different varieties.
Anyway, the right of interpretation is hers.
Xue's mother and Xue Yao picked peppers, while Xue Huan and Pei Ji planted flowers and trees, continuing to enrich their own vegetable garden.
After planting a row of peach saplings, the two went to the canal to fetch water.
"Huanhuan, look over there." Pei Ji pointed not far away.
Xue Huan took a look and saw that the vampire vine seemed to be entangled in something as big as a round table.
She walked over, picked up a branch and knocked on it. The vampire vine shrank back obediently, revealing the big turtle shell inside.
"What a big turtle!" Pei Ji exclaimed.
Xue Huan looked at the tortoise shell with intricate patterns and felt that it looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.
Suddenly, a head emerged from the turtle shell, followed by limbs and a tail.
Seeing this, Xue Huan suddenly remembered!
It’s the monster I saw in the pond yesterday!
How did it get here?
Xue Huan couldn't help but feel terrified when she saw the six or seven-meter-long monster in front of her. She retreated with Pei Ji, "Hurry up and go back to take my mother and the others away."
Pei Ji refused, "Hanhuan, you go, I'll deal with this monster, I'm better than you."
Is this a question of whether I am powerful or not? I have a space where I can hide anytime!
Xue Huan pinched him and said, "Go!"
Pei Ji took a look at the monster and had to leave.
At this time, the mole had freed itself from the ditch. It twitched its nose and looked accurately at Xue Huan.
It remembered this human's breath! The piece of meat containing spiritual energy yesterday was fed to it by her.
The mole beast's red eyes gleamed with excitement.
However, in Xue Huan's eyes, she automatically understood it as his desire for her.
The reason why she didn't escape with Pei Ji immediately after seeing the monster was that she was worried that the monster would destroy her vegetable garden. Of course, this was not the main point. The key was that she was afraid that the monster would rush out of the vegetable garden and eat people everywhere in the village.
Although she is not a selfless person, she can't just do nothing when she knows that the monster may rush out and eat people, right?
What's more, if what she worried about came true, it would definitely attract the attention of the government, and the peppers in their vegetable garden would no longer be hidden.
So whether for public or private reasons, she couldn't just leave this monster alone.
However, just when Xue Huan felt like she was facing a formidable enemy, the monster opened its mouth and spit out a yellow bead that emitted a halo. The bead was about the size of an egg. After it floated out of its mouth, it actually flew straight towards her!
It didn't penetrate into her eyebrows!
This is……
A soft and cute boy's voice sounded in his mind: "Master, this is my inner elixir. If you take my inner elixir, I will be your contracted beast from now on!"
The inner elixir sank into Xue Huan's sea of consciousness and transmitted a piece of information. She naturally understood the origin of the big guy in front of her.
The mole beast is a monster that has existed since ancient times. It has the ability to drill through mountains and split rocks. Although it cannot be compared with those huge monsters that can swallow the sky and split the earth at will, it is not weak either and it also has a place in the monster clan.
However, the one in front of him did not catch up with good times. He was born when the spiritual energy was very low. Because he could not get enough nourishment, he could only fall into a deep sleep to reduce consumption. Now he is more than 500 years old, but in fact he is still a cub.
Xue Huan glanced at the six or seven meter long cub in front of her, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she continued to digest the information in her mind.
There are generally three ways for monsters to recognize their masters.
The first one is that they are defeated by humans and then recognize their master under the power of the contract formation.
The second type is a blood pact, where both the human and the demon beast voluntarily donate a drop of blood essence, jointly carving a blood formation and imprinting it in each other's sea of consciousness. This type requires the demon beast's approval.
Furthermore, once the contract is concluded, it will bind both the demon beast and the human. It can be considered an equal contract.
The third type, which is also the highest rule, is that the monster voluntarily offers its inner elixir and makes a contract with humans.
The inner elixir condenses the monster's cultivation. It can be said that giving up the inner elixir is basically equivalent to handing over one's life and death to others.
Few monsters are willing to sign this type of contract.
Why is the mole willing to do so?
Because this type of contract links the life and cultivation of the monster beast to that of its master, as the master's cultivation level improves, the monster beast's cultivation level also improves. As long as the master survives, the monster beast will also survive. And vice versa.
