Volume 1: Questioning the Past Chapter 92: Rod and Hook
The purple-blue thunder fish was two meters long. It turned into a flash of lightning as it swung its tail. It instantly swallowed the man with a pierced shoulder. The man had no time to resist and turned into charcoal in the fish's mouth, and then completely disappeared.
The remaining two people were immediately frightened and fled.
How could Gu Xiaoxing let them succeed? He was about to punch them in the air while retreating. Although he couldn't create a fist mark a thousand feet in size like the one he had done in the Jindan stage, he could still create a fist mark ten feet in size.
"How dare you!" Mo Chongtian shouted. All the changes in the thunder pool happened too fast. He had just used the Soul-Calming Thunder Technique and could only free up his hands to provide support at this time.
However, the next moment, an angry and cold voice sounded.
“You deserve to die!”
Mo Chongtian's heart shuddered, and he turned around suddenly, and saw a big black stick rushing towards him. He never expected that the Soul-Soothing Thunder Method, which had always worked, was not only useless against Gu Xiaoxing, but even the little girl broke free so quickly.
After all, Mo Chongtian had completed his foundation building and reacted quickly. Facing the incoming stick, he simply dragged the drum in front of him to block it.
Boom...!
The sound of drums was deafening. It was actually the soul-calming thunder method again, and it was launched by using the enemy's attack. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be shocked and fascinated. But what horrified Mo Chongtian was that the little girl on the other side just shook her head this time, as if nothing had happened .
The two men started fighting here, and there was no one to support Lei Chi, so the gap gradually closed.
On the other side, Gu Xiaoxing was out of the thunder pool in one step without any obstruction. At the same time, he had already punched out, leaving a fist mark of ten feet in the air. The remaining two people from Bugu Lei Zong were blocked by the fist mark and completely fell into the thunder pool. Thunder and lightning intertwined, and their bodies were immediately paralyzed. Then they saw the Thunder Fish eating them one by one.
"No...!" This scene made Mo Chongtian burst into hysterical roar.
"Hmph, you deserved it!" Seeing that the little brother was fine, Lu Linger breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt that it was not enough, and she suddenly rushed towards Mo Chongtian viciously.
Just when Gu Xiaoxing thought that the big fish was about to rush out, he saw it just glanced at him lightly, then swung its tail and swam back into the thunder pool.
Gu Xiaoxing was stunned, as if he understood the look in the fish's eyes. A warning?
Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxing was furious. How dare a lousy fish warn him? Did he know that the last time such an arrogant fish was in his stomach!
However, he was obviously no match for the fish, so he immediately transferred all his anger to Mo Chongtian. However, when he turned around, he saw an extremely strange scene.
Lu Ling'er had a small body, but she was swinging a long black stick. Although both of them had achieved perfect foundation, Mo Chongtian was chased and beaten by the little girl, and he had almost no ability to fight back. He was in a mess at the moment, and the big drum in his hand had been smashed to pieces .
With a series of stick shadows, Lu Linger's speed was ridiculously fast. Both the stick in her hand and her entire body seemed to have turned into afterimages, hitting Mo Chongtian so hard that he could not resist.
Suddenly, Lu Linger jumped high, holding one end of the stick with both hands, raised it behind her, and smashed it down with all her might.
Mo Chongtian felt a sense of life and death crisis in his heart, and he actually spit out a bolt of thunder, which instantly collided with the falling black stick. This was not real thunder, but an innate magic weapon that he nurtured in his body, and it was also a lower-grade magic weapon. He used it when facing life and death!
Then the next moment, he saw that his thunder magic weapon was cracked by the big black stick. He gritted his teeth, decisively gave up the magic weapon, turned around and flew towards the thundercloud below.
"Want to escape?"
Gu Xiaoxing glared at him. He had been watching him the whole time, how could he possibly succeed!
He immediately snapped his fingers and the green needle shot out. The next moment Mo Chongtian flew down, it pierced through and he died on the spot.
At this moment, Lu Linger had already shattered the thunder. She snorted at Mo Chongtian's body, then felt relieved. Then she put away the big black stick in her hand and jumped towards Gu Xiaoxing.
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless for a while, he couldn't associate her with the crazy girl who was swinging a stick and smashing things around.
"Ahem, Ling'er..." Gu Xiaoxing pretended to cough and was about to say something.
Before he could finish, Lu Linger's eyes lit up and she immediately understood. She turned around and took Mo Chongtian's storage bag, then handed it to the little brother like a treasure, looking like she was waiting for praise.
"Hmm..." Gu Xiaoxing nodded with satisfaction. As he took the storage bag, he said calmly, "Returning lost property is a good behavior, but if what we find is something that has no owner, then it is God's gift. If we don't take what God has given us, we will be blamed! Ling'er, do you understand?"
"Wow...!" Ling'er's eyes were immediately full of stars. She felt that what the little brother said made a lot of sense and nodded vigorously, "Ling'er understands!"
"Well... this boy is teachable!" Gu Xiaoxing nodded slowly with satisfaction again.
“…”
When the coffin inside the body saw this scene, it felt that if it were the little girl's father, it would have rushed out and beat Gu Xiaoxing to death at this moment.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at Mo Chongtian's top-grade magic weapon storage bag in his hand, which fell instantly under his powerful spiritual sense. In fact, there was nothing good in it. The only valuable magic weapon had been smashed by Lu Linger. Ordinary things were no longer in his eyes.
After the two of them divided the food, Gu Xiaoxing became curious about what Lu Linger's big black stick was. It could even smash low-grade magic weapons. Even if he used burning Taoist incense, it might not be that easy.
Lu Linger said that she didn't know either. This was given to her by her master and it should be just an average magic weapon.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxing was even more surprised. Could a medium-level magic weapon be so powerful?
"Although it is only a medium-level magic weapon, it contains a little innate black gold!" The coffin suddenly said at this time.
"No wonder, I thought, it turns out that you have taken over the materials of Coffin Master. No wonder you are so powerful, Coffin Master is so mighty!" Gu Xiaoxing started to flatter him quickly. He has not been treating Coffin Master well since he pissed him off last time.
"Hmph! Don't try that on me! There is one more thing I want to tell you. The burning Taoist incense is the greatest treasure in the world. It cannot be compared to any magical instrument or treasure." Although Guan Gua said this, his tone was obviously much better.
Gu Xiaoxing heard the other meaning in its words and said, "Master Guan, do you know the origin of this burning incense?"
"Of course...but don't ask. You don't deserve to know." said the coffin.
Gu Xiaoxing knew that Guan Gu had such a bad temper, so he didn't get angry. Instead, he licked his face and said, "Yes, Master Guan is right. I am not worthy. Hehe, does Master Guan have any way to deal with the stinky fish in the pond?"
"No!"
Although Gu Xiaoxing spoke in a humble manner and called him "Master Guan" all the time, Guan Gua seemed a little angry and directly refused.
Gu Xiaoxing felt disappointed immediately after hearing this, and was thinking about whether to turn hostile or provoke the other party.
The coffin suddenly spoke, "But...if you are willing to promise my master one thing, then it is not impossible!
Gu Xiaoxing was suspicious for a moment and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The master said that he will tell you personally when the time comes!" said the coffin.
"Master Coffin, can you tell me, is your master a man or a woman, a human or a ghost, or a demon or a monster?" Gu Xiaoxing was extremely curious.
"Such nonsense! Just tell me whether you agree or not." Coffin was extremely impatient.
"Okay, I agree!" Gu Xiaoxing said, but he was thinking in his heart: But I didn't say I must do it!
"Hmph! Don't think that Master Coffin doesn't know what you are thinking. But the master said that as long as you agree, it will be fine, because... you can't refuse!" Master Coffin suddenly said sinisterly.
Although he knew that the broken coffin was trying to scare him again, he still felt a chill in his heart after hearing this. He felt as if he had fallen into a trap. However, when he thought that he was already a prisoner, he had no choice if the other party didn't want to reason. He felt relieved and said, "Let's talk about it later. Anyway, I've agreed. Tell me how to deal with that broken fish?"
"Boy, even if it is transformed from thunder, a fish is still a fish. Have you forgotten what treasure you have obtained recently?" said the coffin.
After Gu Xiaoxingjing mentioned this, he immediately understood and said, "You mean... that Diaotian Remnant Treasure?"
“Yes, although Diaotian claims to be able to catch everything in the world, in the final analysis, it is still a broken fishing rod. It is serious about fishing!”
"But there's no fishing line or hook here! How can I fish with just a broken pole?"
"Just take some spiritual iron and spiritual silk to make up the numbers. After all, they were once top-grade spiritual treasures. If you can't even catch a fish in the foundation-building stage, you can use it as a firewood stick..."
Gu Xiaoxing thought about it and it made sense. He immediately started tinkering with the storage ring. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he swept his spiritual sense across a corner of the storage ring and found something there that had not been used for a long time.
The fishhook that Heimulin got!
The little girl was also pouting and trying to figure out how to get the body-tempering thunder liquid in the thunder pool. The lightning covering the pool was not a problem, but the big thunder fish in it was something even she couldn't do. But at this moment, she suddenly saw the little brother take out a bamboo pole and a hook.
Lu Linger immediately showed a curious look and asked, "What is this?"
Gu Xiaoxing showed a mysterious smile and said, "Ling'er, watch carefully to see how my brother cleans up that broken fish!"
"Yeah!" The little girl was immediately full of anticipation and was very confident in what her little brother said .
But at this moment, the coffin suddenly exclaimed, "Why does your hook look familiar... Hmm? No way? Are you lucky?"
Gu Xiaoxing blinked and asked inside his body, "What do you mean?"
The coffin did not answer directly, but said: "Put the rod and hook together yourself and feel it carefully."
Gu Xiaoxing put the bamboo pole and the big hook together, and then used his spiritual sense to investigate. Suddenly, his heart was shocked. That feeling... was as if the pole and the hook came from the same source, but they were missing the most important line that could connect them!
“What is this...?!” Gu Xiaoxing’s heart was pounding!
"This is the rod and hook for fishing in the sky!" The coffin gave a positive answer.
