Chapter 42 Jade Box and Delusion
Chapter 42 Jade Box and Delusion
"If you don't reply to senior sister's message, aren't you afraid of being punished when you return?" Xu Xing asked.
"If anyone is afraid, it will be me after I go back."
And if I don’t do this, I will be punished, Chi Jiuyu added silently in his heart.
"Let's not talk about this, Uncle Master. When I came here, I checked on the spiritual network. There will be a very interesting performance if we go up further. It is said that it is an interaction with the iron-toothed crocodile."
The Iron-toothed Crocodile is a strange beast with amazing bite force. It can bite iron and chew gold. Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator may not be able to withstand its iron teeth and copper fangs.
Continue walking up and when you reach halfway up the mountain, you will see that a very spacious and regular space has been dug out in the belly of the mountain, and the surrounding area is reinforced with formations to prevent collapse.
【Iron Tooth Crocodile Park】
The surroundings and the ground are paved with layers of white tiles, making the overall look very bright. In the middle is an enclosed shallow pool, in which lies a several-meter-long, ferocious-looking crocodile-like beast with shiny black scales.
As it opens its mouth, you can see its sharp, ferocious teeth flashing with metallic color.
This is the iron-toothed crocodile.
Because it was a weekday, there were not many tourists, so the two easily found a location that was most suitable for the performance.
The performance was halfway through.
A staff member wearing a light blue uniform was half-crouching and slowly putting an arm into the open mouth of the iron-toothed crocodile.
The staff member was only at the foundation-building stage. If he were to bite off, his entire arm would be chewed into pieces.
The tourists around stared at it intently and held their breath subconsciously.
Sure enough, no matter what kind of world it is, there are always people seeking excitement.
Chi Jiuyu took a bite of marshmallow and stared at the mouth of the iron-toothed crocodile. She didn't feel excited by what he said, but she thought this kind of suicidal behavior was very interesting.
Suddenly, the staff member seemed to realize something was wrong and quickly pulled his arm out.
Sure enough, the iron-toothed crocodile's big mouth suddenly closed in the next moment, and the iron teeth collided, causing sparks to fly.
"Oh!!"
Many tourists exclaimed in surprise, and a middle-aged man not far away touched his right hand with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
After the staff member stood up, he subconsciously covered his hands, obviously frightened.
Then he looked at the iron-toothed crocodile with a complicated expression.
The man and the beast just stared at each other.
"The Holy Emperor once said, 'If you walk by the river, you will get your feet wet.'"
Chi Jiuyu turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man not far away: "Uncle, you seem very emotional."
"That's right, I used to do this too." The uncle was obviously a talkative person, "This guy is relatively good, I lost a hand at that time."
Fortunately, he had saved some money and went to the hospital to hire a doctor to give him some medicine to help his arm grow back.
"Where is the iron-toothed crocodile that bit you?" Chi Jiuyu was very curious.
What about the iron-toothed crocodile that bit people?
"Here it is." The uncle took out a wallet, which was rarely used by practitioners. "It likes to open and close its mouth, so I'll let it stay with me and close its mouth as much as it wants."
He made the teeth into two boning knives, and now he specializes in iron-tooth crocodile meat.
Chi Jiuyu stared blankly at the wallet in his hand, and smacked his lips after a while.
It seems... quite reasonable.
At this time, another staff member came out and discussed with the staff member who almost became Yang Guo.
"Dear tourists, I am so sorry, today's performance ends here, please leave in an orderly manner!"
There seemed to be a hint of innocence in the iron-toothed crocodile's bean-sized eyes.
Although the tourists really wanted to continue watching, it was understandable, so they walked out one after another.
Chi Jiuyu and Xu Xing also followed the crowd and walked out.
She suddenly remembered what the uncle had said just now: "Uncle Master, do you think that iron-toothed crocodile will perform with the people here in the future?" "Emm...these three things are probably impossible to achieve."
Eh?
Didn’t I just ask a question?
Why are there three things?
…………
On the other side of the viewing garden, a cartoonish Blazing Feather fell from the sky and landed in a secluded corner.
Xiao Fan took off his hood and reached out to catch the flying sword that had lost its power.
"Whoo~"
He let out a long sigh. After flying for a whole morning, his true energy was almost exhausted.
In fact, after the battle test, he went to apply for withdrawal from school. After all, he was a man who had lost his future, and there was no point in continuing his studies.
The dean and the principal knew that his situation was special, so they didn't blame him, for which he was very grateful.
Fortunately, my eldest brother’s treatment was very successful and his injuries have stabilized. Although his cultivation level has dropped a little, his foundation has been repaired.
With big brother's talent, it won't take long for him to recover.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xiao Fan's face.
Walking into the staff lounge, a person wearing the same doll costume as him came out.
"Go and have a rest, Xiaofan, eat something, and drink some more healing liquid."
"Okay, Brother Li."
The man Xiao Fan called Brother Li nodded, walked over to him, put on the hood, and then used the art of controlling objects to fly into the sky.
At this time in the sky, in addition to Chiyu, there were also many cartoon-like strange beasts.
This was the job he found, dressing up as an exotic animal to increase the popularity of the park, mainly to attract young children.
Not only is it relatively easy, the salary is not too low.
In fact, there are quite a few jobs that can be found after building the foundation, but he has not found a suitable one yet, so he can only make do with this for now.
Walking into the staff lounge, the gentle breeze blew away some of my fatigue.
Xiao Fan took off his bulky doll costume and put it aside, then reached out and took a bottle of Hui Yuan Ling Liquid from the shelf.
He drank it all in one gulp, then walked to the table at the inner side, where many lunch boxes were neatly arranged. There was a constant temperature formation engraved on the table top, so there was no need to worry about it getting cold.
He picked up one at random, turned and walked to the door, sat down on the steps, and opened the lid of the lunch box.
The lunch box contains meat and vegetables, which is very rich. Even the rice is a kind of spiritual rice that can replenish vitality to a certain extent.
After taking a few bites, he looked up into the distance and saw two children around seven or eight years old holding wooden swords, shouting something like "I want to be the leader of the Sword Sect when I grow up".
The children's parents followed behind them, talking and laughing.
"..."
When he was a child, he also wanted to be a sword cultivator. However, after his elder brother joined the Dragon Elephant Qingtian Sect, he gradually developed a yearning for physical cultivation.
People are like this. When they are busy, they forget many bad things, but when they sit alone to rest, they become sentimental.
After a long time, he put the lunch box aside and reached out to take out a jade box from his arms.
The jade box is the size of a palm and has a smooth and round surface.
Although it was a bit uncomfortable to carry it with him all the time, for some reason he still kept it with him.
"Ah……"
Xiao Fan smiled self-deprecatingly, and he knew in his heart why this happened.
It was just that he still had some unrealistic fantasies about the salesman's words, or about his current situation.
The reason why I haven't opened it yet is because I'm afraid that this little delusion will turn into a bad joke.
