Chapter 123 Survival Instinct
The bald man was very unhappy. He couldn't watch the fun with everyone. The magic power on the hoop disappeared. He couldn't fly, so he could only stay on the back of the red horse and wandered in the valley. Finally, he had a sudden idea and hid himself.
After feeding the group of erotic horses, Xiaoqiu took out his head from the water grass by the pond. This was once the place where he avoided Yang Qingyin's fireball. He found that the bald man was missing. Xiaoqiu walked around and found this place soon.
The bald man's hair was wet, and he let himself be held in his hand. He sighed and spit out a stream of water from his mouth, "Brother Xiaoqiu, don't worry about me, let me soak here. Anyway, the valley is so big, it's the same wherever I stay."
Xiaoqiu casts a flying technique on the hoop, but the bald man still falls in his hands and refuses to fly.
"Are you angry?" Xiao Qiu walked north and had to clean up the meat-eating site.
"Oh, why am I angry? You have a body, I don't. You can practice, I can't. You can walk everywhere, I can't. Who made me young and never grow up? Oh, I'm not angry, I just want to..." The bald man squeezed his eyes, but he didn't cry, so he had to sigh non-stop.
Xiaoqiu had his own experience in dealing with bald people, and neither persuaded nor catered to them. He just said perfunctory, shook his arms away, and deliberately swayed his head forward and backward.
The bald man had been complaining for a long time this time, and once again, he started talking about the memories of childhood. He stole snacks from the grocery store at home, was scolded, played with the older child next door, was beaten, and finally got involved in the Ershun and was scolded... Halfway through the journey, the bald man who was slapped around finally laughed out loud, "Oh, Brother Xiao Qiu, you shook my head so dizzy."
Xiaoqiu put his head into the air, and the bald man floated up. He flew around Xiaoqiu twice, "Brother Xiaoqiu, you should tell me what the demon king and queen are like, I'm almost anxious to death."
Xiaoqiu began to describe that his language was relatively simple, and the bald man was not satisfied with hearing it at all. He grabbed every detail and asked endlessly. He said more than Xiaoqiu. When he came to the cliff in the north, he finally closed his mouth. He flew up the cliff, stopped at a height of about ten feet, imitating the demon king and looking down, giving out a series of amazement.
Xiaoqiu threw away the stones and buried the ashes on the spot. The remaining meat and bones were difficult to deal with. It was a pity that they would throw them away. If they didn't throw them away, they might cause trouble. After thinking about it, they decided to bury the bones and take the meat back as food. He was a child from a poor family and was really reluctant to throw away the food.
The bald man's head suddenly fell from the sky and stopped less than a foot in front of Xiaoqiu. His eyes widened and he didn't say a word.
Xiaoqiu nodded slightly, bald man turned around and flew slowly westward along the cliff. Xiaoqiu followed behind with a few large pieces of meat, thinking that bald man had discovered animals like hares again.
Bald man's personality is always shocked and treats small things as a huge threat. He will catch up with a fly for half an hour. As long as he has plenty of time, Xiaoqiu often cooperates with bald man's actions to add some realism and happiness to him.
This time the bald man really discovered something abnormal.
There is a relatively gentle hillside to the west, which connects the mountains and drools the grass of the horse valley. Whenever the animals cross the boundary from here, they will be driven away by the brocade-tailed horse if they don’t have a few bites.
The herd of horses was not guarding here tonight, and a bold animal rushed over.
At first, Xiaoqiu felt that it was a sheep, and she was slightly shocked. She thought that the companion of the sheep had been found, but soon found that she was wrong. The animal was similar in size to the sheep, but her body seemed much lighter, but one of the front legs seemed to be unstable when it landed on the ground.
After Xiaoqiu's eyesight was greatly enhanced after condensing the pill, he could see clearly the situation a hundred steps away in the night with a little concentration. He was even more surprised that the animal running towards the Wrangler Valley was actually a brown deer that was degenerated by the demon queen.
The brown deer completely forgot her former identity, walked and stopped on the hillside, attracted by the grass, and got closer and closer to the Hermitage Valley.
The bald man brushed a strand of hair across Xiaoqiu's face and signaled him to look in another direction.
Behind a pile of rocks was a dark shadow, waiting quietly for the brown deer to approach. It was an ordinary beast, and the sound of the Taoist priest approaching was not heard.
The brown deer stopped. Although it only took a few hours to degenerate, its instinct had been completely restored. It raised its head and sniffed it in the air, feeling the danger hidden in the dark.
Xiaoqiu hid in the shadow cast by the cliff and watched quietly. The bald man also imitated Xiaoqiu's appearance, with a serious face and an excited light in his eyes. He liked the excitement, especially the hunting scenes.
The brown deer turned around and was about to leave, and after a circle, it came back. The delicious grass was right in front of her. The temptation was too great, but the danger was just a vague premonition. It chose to run towards the Wrangler Valley on a relatively flat slope.
The black shadow jumped out from behind the rock, cutting off the way out of the prey.
Chasing and running away is a life-and-death game that hunters and prey have played for countless years. Under the pressure of survival, even pets raised by emperors since childhood will show their cruel side.
The demon king and the queen are born in human form, but this does not affect their instinct after degenerating into beast form.
The brown deer accelerated toward the Wrangler Valley at the foot of the mountain, but its short front legs became its fatal flaw. The black wolf, with only one eye, jumped continuously with the help of the mountain, and pounced on the back of its prey for the fifth time.
It has the instinct and power to tear its prey apart, but it still lacks some experience. The brown deer jumped high and threw away the black wolf when it landed on the ground. Several deep scars were caught on its buttocks.
The second round of pursuit began, and the black wolf was faster. This time, attacking from the side, his whole body hit the prey heavily.
The brown deer fell down, and the slightly clumsy black wolf failed to aim at its neck, but opened its mouth and bit one of the prey's front legs, and blood flowed out along its teeth.
It felt unprecedented hunger. It did not remember anything during the Demon King period, but it remembered that it had never been so hungry. Fresh blood flowed into its throat, making it comfortable like the ice water in midsummer. It would rather die than lose this feeling.
"Bite, bite hard!" The bald man whispered and licked his lips constantly. Although he didn't need to suck blood now, his life in chasing prey in Yelin Town still made him feel endlessly aftertaste.
It is the most normal thing for a wolf to eat a deer. Xiaoqiu felt that there was no need to interfere at all. The two Taoists were right. Such ordinary wolves did not threaten the brocade-tailed horse and could not catch prey like the sandal sheep. After eating the venison, it would leave.
The brown deer whined. When she saw her husband suffer the pain of snatching the pill, she did not speak, and when she turned from a human to a beast, she did not speak, but at this time she was struggling and screaming, no different from ordinary animals.
Xiaoqiu rushed over and shouted loudly. The black wolf was just startled, but was not scared away, and let go of the prey that had its mouth. He jumped to the human in one step, revealing his white teeth, and using a low roar to announce that the brown deer behind him belonged to him.
"Let me do it!" The bald man flew past Xiaoqiu with a whistle, pounced directly on the black wolf, revealing his two rows of teeth.
The black wolf was stunned, revealing a hint of retreat.
Xiaoqiu was quick to get his hands, grabbed the bald man's hair and pulled him back.
The black wolf did not understand Pang Shan’s rules, nor did he understand the strength level here. He jumped and attacked humans.
The chanting of the heart spell had little effect on the wild beasts, and Xiaoqiu didn't want to use the routine. He waved a punch to hit the black wolf in the air on the neck. The black wolf fell to the ground, and the scream of a stray dog in his throat. He got up and ran for a few steps, not daring to attack again. However, he couldn't bear to leave another prey.
The brown deer struggled hard and finally stood up, with one of her front legs becoming even more limping.
"Go and find other prey." Xiaoqiu scolded the Black Wolf. Because the mysterious disappearance of the residents of Yelin Town was happening. Xiaoqiu hated demons more than ordinary Pangshan disciples, and did not think that the Demon Pangshan Pang was too much, and even felt that the Taoist throne of Pangshan was too kind. But even so, he still couldn't accept that his husband who had just degenerated into a beast-shaped body bit his wife to death.
He believed that this was not the original intention of Pangshan Taoist priests. Taoists could have let the black wolf bite the brown deer to death at that time, instead of throwing them into the mountains.
The brown deer staggered towards the mountain, and it already knew it was not safe here.
The black wolf retreated step by step, turning his head to stare at the brown deer from time to time, still feeling very reluctant, but he didn't dare to hunt in front of humans.
Xiaoqiu threw the sandalwood meat in his hand over, "Eat these, and then get away."
The black wolf was startled and took a few steps back. However, attracted by the smell of meat, he walked up carefully again and swallowed a large piece of meat in one bite, and immediately made a posture to run. He found that humans had no intention of taking the opportunity to attack, so he began to swallow the second piece of meat.
Xiaoqiu stood there, watching the brown deer climb over the hillside before turning around and leaving. The black wolf had a lot of food. He ate all the sandalwood mutton and was still sniffing it in place, looking for the last bit of meat residue.
The bald man was reluctant to leave, "Just let it go? Wouldn't you play with it for a while?"
"That wolf is the demon king, and that deer is the demon queen."
The bald man turned around and wanted to go back and take a closer look. Xiaoqiu grabbed him, held a strand of hair, and said as he walked, "There is nothing to see, they are just animals now."
"I didn't see the black wolf's one-eye clearly. Let me see how big the hole is. I used my eyeballs to refine the demon pill. It was too stupid. I never thought that I would be caught one day..."
The bald man chattered endlessly, and Xiaoqiu pulled him back to the room. It was already midnight. Xiaoqiu had no intention of practicing boxing or thinking, so he fell on the bed and fell asleep.
Not long after sleeping, Xiaoqiu suddenly opened her eyes and sat up. He found that the bald man was gone, but there were two people standing at the door.
"What are you doing?" Xiaoqiu asked stiffly, then recognized that these were the two Taoist priests looking for the missing Tanyang Sheep everywhere.
"We found the corpse of the sandal sheep in the Wrangler Valley." A Taoist priest said, and a huge sheep's head was lit from behind.
"I met this halfway through." Another Taoist priest picked up the bald man's head.
"Can't I just stroll in the middle of the night?" The bald man flew forward dissatisfiedly. The Taoist priest let go and rushed to Xiaoqiu and hung on Xiaoqiu's shoulder, like a second head. "I recognize you, the two guys who cut the hair on the brocade-tailed horse, sneakily want to steal something, right?"
Someone outside coughed, and two Taoist priests made a move away. A short Taoist priest walked in with his hands on his back, "Killing and injuring spirit beasts is an unforgivable serious crime. Mu Xingqiu, how do you explain this?"
Xiaoqiu was stunned. The person who came was Shen Shang, the most incompetent eldest son of the Shen family. He threatened him half-truely on the Old Ancestor Peak yesterday.
