Chapter 198 Crocodile Transforms into Carp
"Such a huge crocodile!"
Chu Runrun looked at the crocodile in surprise. It was seven meters long and had a bloody mouth.
As he was speaking, the crocodile had already broken through Chu Qi's formation and pounced on him with a roar.
"Get out of the way!"
Chu Runrun quickly pushed Zhuo Chi away, and the crocodile's bloody mouth bit down fiercely between them.
Chu Runrun spun around and jumped up, unsheathing the Seven-Star Demon-Subduing Sword and fiercely stabbing it into the crocodile's back.
But the Seven-Star Demon-Subduing Sword, which could usually kill a ghost with one strike, couldn't even pierce the crocodile skin today.
Chu Runrun couldn't help but sigh, no wonder those ladies like crocodile leather bags, they are so sturdy!
Chu Runrun rolled over and away from the crocodile. Then Zhuo Chi took out a gun and shot the crocodile in the eye.
Eyes are the crocodile's weakness, even for crocodiles that have become spirits.
A shot went in, blood splattered, and the crocodile let out a terrible roar.
Immediately afterwards, the huge crocodile's body gradually shrank into the appearance of Yu Rong.
"It's you! Crocodile spirit!" Chu Runrun said coldly.
Yu Rong covered his injured eye, poked his finger into the eye socket, dug out the bullet, and threw it at Zhuo Chi with his bare hands.
Zhuo Chi immediately dodged.
"Damn human, I want you dead!"
Yu Rong roared angrily, and the skin on his face suddenly cracked, revealing a long crocodile mouth and sharp teeth.
Crocodile head, human body, Chu Ruanruan immediately understood.
The first time she saw Yu Rong, she felt that her face was weird. It turned out that her face was really plastic surgery. She wondered if it was uncomfortable to stuff such a long crocodile mouth into it.
Yu Rong rushed towards Zhuo Chi, and Han Liming immediately stepped forward and shot the crocodile in the tail.
Chu Ruanruan and Chu Qi also attacked at the same time, attracting the heavenly thunder and Samadhi True Fire.
As a water-based monster, it is naturally restrained by thunder and fire.
Under the pressure of the two, Yu Rong retreated again and again.
"Damn it! I just wanted to kill Liu Hansheng. I didn't affect your interests. Why are you targeting me like this?" Yu Rong said angrily.
"As a monster, you are doing evil in the human world. How can we just ignore it!" Zhuo Chi said coldly.
"I just wanted Liu Hansheng to have a taste of what he did to me back then. What have I done wrong? You are the ones who are wrong!"
Yu Rong suddenly roared to the sky, and more than a dozen crocodiles crawled over quickly from all directions.
Seeing the crocodiles approaching, Chu Runrun and Chu Qi had no choice but to retract their energy to avoid the crocodiles' attacks.
"Kids, go and bite them to death!" Yu Rong commanded the crocodiles to attack.
Originally, the four of them could handle one big crocodile, but now they are surrounded by more than a dozen crocodiles. Even an ordinary crocodile will drain their energy!
Just as the four of them were struggling to hold on, a dragon roar was heard.
In mid-air, Long Ling swooped down, and its tail swept up the crocodile that was about to attack Chu Runrun and smashed it hard towards Yu Rong.
Yu Rong stared at Long Ling with eyes wide open. It was a water spirit and the dragon was their king. Facing the king, even if it was just a spirit, it had to surrender.
Chu Ruanruan also looked at Long Ling in surprise: "Why is Long Ling here?"
Long Ling glanced at Yu Rong, and a line of words appeared in the air.
"The saltwater crocodile and Liu Hansheng have a feud from a previous life!"
"Old grudge!" Chu Ruanruan was puzzled.
Long Ling looked at Yu Rong, and a trace of dragon energy enveloped him.
Yu Rong's expression turned into horror, and then his bones made crisp sounds, revealing the appearance of a crocodile.
But the crisp sound was not over yet. Its four claws slowly retracted and the crocodile skin on its back cracked in the middle.
Soon, a piece of crocodile skin fell off, revealing a red carp as big as a man.
Everyone was surprised that the crocodile turned into a carp!
Long Ling untied the restraints, and the red carp slowly turned into the upper body of a young man and the lower body of a red fish tail.
He was covered in scars, especially the hideous scar on his stomach which was even more terrifying.
Under the surprised gazes of Chu Ruanruan and the others, the carp spirit spoke.
"Two thousand years ago, I was a small carp in the East China Sea. I practiced for hundreds of years, just waiting to cross the Dragon Gate so that I could transform into a dragon and soar into the sky.
But just as the dragon gate opened, I saw a fisherman fall into the sea, hanging by a thread between life and death.
After much deliberation, I finally decided to rescue the fisherman, but I missed the chance to leap over the Dragon Gate."
At this point, a look of regret flashed in the carp spirit's eyes.
“Although I was disappointed that I couldn’t cross the Dragon Gate, I was able to save one person and it can be considered a blessing.
But who knew that the fisherman was an ungrateful man. When he woke up and saw that I had a human body and a fish tail, he knew that I was a monster.
So, under the pretext of repaying a favor, he tricked me into eating drugged bait, which made me unconscious.
He took me back, cut off my fins, dug out my gills, cut open my stomach and took out my internal organs.
I got a piece of dragon scale when I jumped over the Dragon Gate, which protected me from death. Even so, I didn't die. When the effect of the medicine wore off a little, I escaped.
Later I learned that the fisherman went to the deep sea to search for the fish monster because he had heard that eating the meat of the fish monster could prolong life, and he deliberately fell into the sea to deceive me.
Seriously injured, I dove to the bottom of the sea, relying on that dragon scale to sustain myself. Finally, when the saltwater crocodile failed to survive its tribulation, I borrowed its body and survived until now."
Hearing this, Chu Ruanruan and the others fell silent.
After a long while, the carp spirit gritted its teeth and said:
"I have gone through thousands of years, and every time that fisherman reincarnates, I will make him suffer the same pain I went through.
If it weren't for you this time, he would have been boiled like a fish in a pot."
"Two thousand years, that's at least twenty reincarnations. He has suffered twenty times. Isn't that enough?" Han Liming frowned.
"It's not enough! Even if he experiences that kind of pain a thousand times, it's not enough!" the carp spirit said angrily.
Chu Ruanruan didn't know what to do, so she could only look at Long Ling: "What are you going to do?"
Long Ling shook his head as if confused.
Someone hiding in the dark couldn't help but hold his forehead. He only asked Long Ling to protect Chu Runrun and the others, but forgot to tell him how to deal with the carp spirit.
Long Ling was left with no answer after being questioned by Chu Runrun, and could only secretly look towards the person in the dark for help.
Chu Ruanruan also noticed Long Ling's gaze and followed it.
At this moment, a golden light suddenly appeared in the sky, and the shadow of a green dragon fell.
"Carp Spirit, after a thousand years of reincarnation, the old grudge has been resolved. He has repaid what he owed you. If you stop now, I can help you restore your fish body and return to the seabed to cultivate again. When the Dragon Gate opens again in the future, you can leap through it again."
The carp spirit suddenly looked up: "Really?"
A drop of dragon saliva flew out of the mouth of the green dragon phantom and landed on the carp demon. The next second, the scars on the carp demon's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The surprise in the carp spirit's eyes was gradually replaced by joy:
"Thank you, Dragon King! Thank you, Dragon King!"
"Let's go back to the bottom of the sea!" said the Azure Dragon Shadow in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The carp spirit kowtowed to the Azure Dragon and quickly disappeared from the spot.
Chu Runrun looked at the green dragon shadow and was about to ask something when the shadow quickly flew away, followed by Long Ling.
Chu Runrun frowned, fixed her gaze in the direction of Long Ling's gaze, and took steps forward bit by bit.
There seemed to be a person hiding in the darkness in that corner.
