Chapter 322: The legendary beast, what does it mean to have thick skin and flesh?
Su Mu practiced his martial arts, and his vast spiritual power transformed into divine fire, which began to burn the stone sculpture of the iron-eating beast.
If this stone sculpture of the iron-eating beast were a living creature, it would definitely be difficult for it to withstand this level of burning.
In just a few seconds, the surface of the stone sculpture was burned red, but there was still no movement.
How can you bear this?
Su Mu burned it for another half an hour and found that there was still no change.
Maybe I have developed an illusion due to my practice?
Then, Su Mu sat back under the tree and began to meditate.
It was late at night.
A slight snoring sound reached Su Mu's ears, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
Oh my god, this is definitely not an illusion!
He came to the stone sculpture and tried several ways to torture it. If it was really a living creature, its endurance would be really strong.
Finally, Su Mu took out an axe, clenched his hands, and poured all his spiritual power into the axe.
He pointed at the iron-eating beast's head and threatened, "If you keep pretending, I'll chop you off and throw you into the river."
After that, there was still no movement.
The next second, Su Mu's axe fell.
Suddenly, the iron-eating beast moved!
He knelt down in front of Su Mu and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
Seeing this, Su Mu's pupils shrank sharply. It could actually move!
He put away his axe.
He folded his arms across his chest, circled it, and looked it up and down.
Even though it moved, Su Mu still didn't feel any fluctuations of life in it, but it gave him the feeling that it was indeed conscious and intelligent.
From the way it raised its hands in surrender, we can tell that it knows fear and it definitely has an intelligence.
That would be strange. If it was really a living creature with intelligence, but its body was made entirely of stone, not only would it not be able to feel any fluctuations of life, it wouldn't even have any fluctuations of spiritual power.
Such a strange and magical life!
"Why are you pretending to be dead?"
Su Mu questioned the iron-eating beast.
After he finished speaking, the iron-eating beast blinked his eyes, looking very innocent. His innocent eyes revealed a clear stupidity, giving people the feeling that he was very simple and not smart, but a very fresh and unworldly kind of simple.
The iron-eating beast waved its hands and began to dance. No one knew what it was dancing with its hands. It kept waving its hands and looking up.
"Can you speak?" Su Mu asked.
Hearing this, the iron-eating beast was stunned for a long time, opened its mouth, and seemed unable to speak.
"That's all."
"Don't make it hard on yourself."
Su Mu waved his hand.
It seems that this guy is really stupid and not just pretending to be stupid.
"You go now."
Su Mu waved at the iron-eating beast.
Because he had looked at this iron-eating beast inside and out. It didn't look strong, and there was no fluctuation of spiritual power. It should not be a special spiritual beast. It also looked a bit stupid. Why should he keep it around?
There are already enough small animals at home, and he doesn't want to add another one.
Although the iron-eating beast could not speak, it understood Su Mu's words. After realizing that Su Mu wanted to drive it away, it immediately hugged Su Mu's thigh.
Seeing this, Su Mu kicked his legs but couldn't get rid of it.
He kicked it hard with his right foot again and again, but he couldn't kick it away. Instead, his foot felt a little painful. This guy's body is too hard!
It was like a piece of dog-skin plaster, stuck to Su Mu's left foot, and no matter how Su Mu kicked it, it didn't move at all.
Su Mu was really forced to do so, so he put his hands on his hips and said, "Forget it, I won't chase you away, you can stay."
After hearing these words, the iron-eating beast let go of Su Mu's legs.
Then it stepped back a few steps, stood up, bowed to Su Mu, and then knelt down and kowtowed to Su Mu. You might say it was stupid, but it still knew some etiquette and behaved like a human being.
The reason why Su Mu planned to keep it was not because it clung to him stubbornly.
Instead, he discovered that this iron-eating beast had a very powerful advantage, which was "durability". To put it simply, its skin was rough and its flesh was thick. Its skin was extremely thick.
Moreover, he has great endurance!
No matter how I tortured it, it just didn't make a sound and didn't move.
Su Mu stroked his chin, thinking about what kind of work to assign to this iron-eating beast.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to let it sleep in your home every day.
"Well, you guard the door for me."
"I'll take you in."
After much thought, Su Mu decided to let the iron-eating beast guard the gate for him. With its thick skin and endurance, the profession of "security guard" is very suitable for it.
Even if one day I'm not at home and an uninvited guest comes to my house, with the iron-eating beast's thick skin and strong body, and its stubbornness like a dog-skin plaster, it might be able to hold the enemy back until I get home.
After understanding, the iron-eating beast walked to the door, remained motionless, and turned into a sculpture again.
Seeing this, Su Mu was also impressed.
Regarding this iron-eating beast, the other Su Mus did not dare to make a conclusion, but he dared to assert that it would definitely live a long time.
At that stop, there is a "stone lion".
Given its timid nature, if it were caught by mortals, it would have to obediently serve as a stone lion at the door for a few years and would not dare to make a sound.
This month, Nannan has practiced the three peerless sword techniques, "Taiyi Sword Technique", "Nine Swords of Qinglian" and "Plum Blossom Soul-Picking Sword Technique", to perfection.
The sword art has also reached the terrifying eighth level!
In terms of sparring, she has already made Little Owl feel exhausted. If she continues like this, she will probably be able to defeat Little Owl in less than a month or two.
During the game between the little owl and Nannan, the little owl imparted all of his understanding of swordsmanship to Nannan without reservation.
From being afraid to play chess with the little master in the beginning, to now being very happy to pass on its things to the little master.
For a master, what he fears most is not a powerful enemy, but that no one can learn his things.
For a girl like Nannan, who can learn things easily and understand everything at once, it makes you want to teach her everything you have learned.
Early in the morning.
Su Mu woke up and stretched.
Nannan hurriedly ran to him, her face flushed as she said, "Daddy, something bad has happened!"
Hearing this, Su Mu turned around and found that the stone sculpture of the iron-eating beast at the door was gone.
Su Mu's heart sank, and he had a bad feeling.
"What's wrong?"
"Daddy, in the backyard!"
Hearing this, Su Mu hurried to the backyard.
Could it be that that stupid iron-eating beast has caused some big trouble again?
My own vegetable garden won't be damaged, right? !
That’s the result of my hard work!
If it dared to destroy his vegetable garden, Su Mu would definitely eat it! !
Su Mu clenched his fists and pushed open the wooden door to the backyard.
