Chapter 40 News about the Green Wood Lotus Heart Grass
The four mythical beasts are the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise.
Among them, only the basalt has a shell.
The space here is so small, and apart from this tortoise shell, there are no other characteristics that symbolize the mythical beast. That's why Nan Xiao was so sure.
"Xiaoxiao, how did you know that?" Lu Huai touched it twice out of curiosity.
This is the first time in my life that I have seen the legendary beast, even though only a shell was left.
"Junior brother, you forgot. Junior sister just said that she was dragged into a deep abyss by Xiaoya. The old demon spirit there said so." Jiang Xia explained with a smile.
Lu Huai reacted and nodded quickly.
"Big Brother, let's take this back and study it."
Nan Xiao found a stone and smashed it down with all her might. Not only did it not deform, it didn't even leave a scratch. Instead, her hand went numb from the reaction of the force.
Legend has it that the shell of Xuanwu is very hard and has extremely high wear resistance and corrosion resistance, making it invulnerable to swords and guns, and immune to water and fire.
It is very suitable for refining a defensive magic weapon.
"Then put it away."
Nan Xiao stored the tortoise shell in his storage ring, and the others left the cave. The four-eyed fox, left outside by them, had already broken free from the vines and was sneaking away.
Lu Huai moved, and the next second the four-eyed fox's neck was pinched in his hand.
He threatened: "If you don't behave, I will beat you up."
Hearing this, the four-eyed fox stopped struggling, its head and ears drooped, looking pitiful.
Nan Xiao used vines to wrap it into a cicada pupa again and held it in his hand.
Lu Huai said, "Xiao Xiao, if you want this monster, why don't you just contract it so it won't try to escape?"
"I don't want anything half-hearted."
"Oh, I see. It's used to make jerky." Lu Huai suddenly realized, and then thought again, "It's so small, there shouldn't be much meat. Let's catch more."
Nan Xiao: “…”
Jiang Xia reached out and patted his forehead, saying unhappily, "You've already reached the foundation building stage, it's time to practice fasting. Stop thinking about eating all the time."
The four-eyed fox spirit was trembling with fear when listening to their conversation. These people were so scary that they actually wanted to eat animals.
Woo woo woo... It was wrong. It shouldn't have despised this little human.
The four-eyed fox spirit was nervous all the way, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the exit of the secret realm.
There were already quite a few people gathered here, some acquaintances and some strangers. They were all in small groups of three or five, huddled together and on guard against each other.
The people from Tianjian Sect and Huanhai Sect glanced at each other, turned their eyes away, and pretended not to know each other.
The people from the Spirit Beast Sect didn’t see it, so they probably haven’t arrived yet.
Jiang Xia took the two children and found a quiet corner to rest, waiting for the door to open.
Nan Xiao brought the fox spirit to him and said, "I'll give you a chance to live, do you want it?"
The fox spirit screamed madly: "Squeak, squeak, squeak..." I want it, I want it.
Nan Xiao frowned. It was so uncomfortable because of the language barrier. She couldn't understand anything at all.
She said, "I ask questions and you answer. If you agree, blink. If you disagree, close your eyes."
The fox blinked wildly.
"Big Brother, I'm just walking around here. Don't worry, just wait for me here." After Nan Xiao said this to Jiang Xia, he carried the fox spirit and walked towards a less crowded place.
"I'm going too." Lu Huai just stood up when Jiang Xia held him down, "Stay here and behave yourself."
"Oh~"
It was obvious that the Junior Sister had something to say to the demon beast and didn't want others to know. Why was he joining in the fun?
Nan Xiao saw that there was no one around and her position was within Jiang Xia's sight, so she stopped.
"Legend has it that a few of your four-eyed fox clan will awaken a special ability that allows them to find objects from a distance." Nan Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly played with its ears with one hand. "I wonder if you have this ability?"
The four-eyed fox was shocked. How could this little human know such a secret matter?
It was still thinking about what this person was planning when it heard her say slowly: "If you have it, blink. If not, then be my junior brother's meat."
Four-eyed fox spirit: “…”
Threats, naked threats.
It can only blink, because it is just a poor beast.
Nan Xiao's smile deepened, "It's still the same old rules. I ask questions and you answer. If you have an answer, blink. If you don't, close your eyes."
The four-eyed fox spirit could only pray in its heart that this little human would not ask any extremely unreasonable questions, otherwise its cultivation would not be good enough.
It's good that they have this ability, but God is fair. Every time they use this ability, a corresponding amount of cultivation will be deducted. Therefore, they rarely use this ability. It's not easy to cultivate.
"Is there any Green Wood Lotus Heart Grass in the world of cultivation now?"
Mu Ran, the four-eyed fox spirit, opened his eyes wide: "This villain really wants to kill it. Having such a heaven-defying spiritual plant like Deer Living Grass is not enough, he also wants Green Wood Lotus Heart Grass."
Nan Xiao was puzzled. "What do you mean by opening your eyes? There's no such option. If you don't tell me, I'll bleed and skin you first."
It started blinking frantically, 'yes, yes, yes...'
Comparing cultivation and fate, it chose fate.
If you lose your cultivation, you can start practicing again, but if you lose your life, you really have nothing left.
As soon as it finished answering, it felt something falling on its body, directly deducting one hundred years of its cultivation. In other words, it now only had two years of cultivation left.
It was so angry that it spat out blood and fainted.
Nan Xiao: “·····” The side effects are so serious.
After feeding it a spirit-gathering pill, the four-eyed spirit beast slowly opened its eyes, and tears of anger began to fall one after another.
It's a hundred years of cultivation.
Woo woo woo～～
"Don't cry, I haven't finished asking."
The four-eyed fox closed its eyes and tilted its head. It was better to just kill it.
Nan Xiao: “…”
It seems that I can't ask for more details, but at least I know whether it exists in the world of cultivation.
As long as it exists, you can find it.
She shook the fox awake: "Alright, stop pretending, I won't ask anymore."
The fox spirit opened his eyes, as if asking, really?
"I can let you go right now, but I have one condition: you can't make a contract with Shen Chaochao in the future. Otherwise, I will kill you every time I see you. If I can't kill you, I'll let my senior brother do it. You know how powerful he is."
Naturally, the things she doesn't want will not be given to the heroine cheaply.
As for the others, it’s up to you.
Because Shen Chaochao is the heroine, she is luckier than most people, which is why she can awaken the bloodline of the Four-Eyed Fox. This is not necessarily the case for others.
The fox called out twice quickly, afraid that Nan Xiao didn't understand, and blinked frantically, "Okay, okay..."
That lucky being backstabbed it, and this little human wanted to make it into jerky, neither of them were good things. It was going to return to the mountains to cultivate, never to come out again.
Nan Xiao untied the vines on its body, and the fox spirit ran into the depths of the secret realm without looking back, gradually disappearing into the dense forest.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, let the monster go." Lu Huai asked when he saw her coming back empty-handed.
