Volume 2 Dragon Bird Chapter 5 Hidden Small Sword
After strolling around the boat for a long time without doing anything, the King of Rat from the West touched his belly and felt greedy again.
Lord Rat, I don’t believe that there is not a single decent food on such a big ship. These crew members must have hidden some of it !
Thinking of this, the King of Western Rat rolled his eyes and immediately began searching every cabin on the ship.
Huh?
The Western Rat King, who had gained nothing once again, was about to leave this extremely clean cabin when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a few books casually placed beside the bed from the corner of his eye. What Lu Qingshan said unconsciously emerged in his mind again, and a little thought flashed through his mind.
Without much hesitation, the King of Western Rat immediately jumped onto the bed and started flipping through the books.
On the cover of the first ancient book, there were a few cursive words written in tiny calligraphy.
Although it has not specifically learned human writing, it has been living in human cities for some time since its intelligence was awakened. Through the influence of what it sees and hears, it can more or less recognize some simple characters.
"Um, ... Swordsman's Biography? I don't recognize the first two words, but it looks like a biography of a ranger. I don't know what these humans think. Do they like swords so much? When writing a biography of a ranger, it has to be related to swords. Swords are cold and boring. I thought only Lu Qingshan would be interested."
The King of Western Rat muttered a few words and ignored it. He threw the damn Swordsman's Biography aside and picked up another thinner ancient book beside him.
"Picture of the...Spiritual...Beast...of the South...Sea!" This time, the King of the Western Rat recognized all the five big characters on the cover of the book.
Spiritual beast! ?
After stutteringly reading the title of the book word by word, the eyes of the King of Western Rat suddenly lit up and he began to flip through the book as if he had found a treasure.
As soon as you open the first page, a very finely drawn gray and white picture of a long whale comes into view.
This whale is shaped like a mountain. The blowhole on its head opens like a crater. The tail fin is heart-shaped, wide and flat, and an ancient and vicissitudes of life atmosphere comes to the face.
There was a detailed text description at the bottom of the picture. King Rat of the West guessed and read it word by word with his poor literacy level. "The Immortal Whale... the oldest spiritual beast in the South China Sea... its lifespan... is almost infinite... its body is huge... it sleeps all year round... there is a small world inside the whale's belly..."
Eh? Could this be the whale on Kehua Island that the storyteller mentioned?
So this kind of thing really exists? Is this a spiritual beast?
The King of Western Rat thought for a while, shook his little head, wet his little paw with saliva, and impatiently turned to the next page.
An image of a mighty and ferocious dragon covered in scales, with horns and whiskers on its head and five claws appeared on the pages of the book.
The King of Western Rat was instantly immersed in this bizarre world, unaware of the changes around him.
After a long time, when it carefully turned the last page of this thin ancient book, it still felt a little unsatisfied.
Take it back and savor it slowly!
In an instant, the King of the West Rat made a decision, grabbed the books with his little claws, and prepared to run away.
"You've just finished reading it, but are you still planning to take it away?"
The sudden sound startled the King of Western Rat.
The King of the Western Rat was so absorbed in the picture of the spirit beast that he did not even notice that a young girl appeared in the cabin at some point.
The girl's clear eyes revealed curiosity . She looked up and down at the King of Western Rat and said, "It's strange. There are also rats who like to read books?"
Careless!
The King of Western Rat secretly cried out in dismay.
If it were a mortal, it would be fine. If he was discovered, he would be discovered. It wouldn't be a big deal.
But the girl in front of him happened to be a cultivator, and although she looked very young, her cultivation had actually reached the late stage of foundation building, which was even higher than Lu Qingshan.
The Western Rat King knew his own strengths and weaknesses. Although he was a second-grade monster, he actually did not have any decent means of attack, and his combat power was basically zero. This girl was someone he could not afford to offend!
In his panic, an idea suddenly flashed through the mind of the King of Western Rat.
Squeak—
The King of Western Rat raised his little head and looked at the girl with a confused look in his eyes and made a squeaking sound.
Looking at the Western Rat King squeaking at her, the girl was stunned, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she said, "You don't understand what I'm saying?"
The King of Western Rat was just about to nod his little head, but in a flash, he suddenly reacted, and immediately shook his little head irregularly, followed by a continuous squeaking.
"I must be overthinking it. How could there be a monster on the ship? And a monster that can read books?" Seeing the Western Rat King's attitude, the girl nodded seriously.
Seeing that the girl no longer doubted him, the King of the West's tense nerves finally relaxed.
He was almost exposed, but luckily Mr. Rat was smart and reacted quickly.
The King of Western Rat said in his heart.
"It looks like it's just an ordinary little rat. In that case, you can go." There was a hint of cunning in the girl's tone.
After getting the girl's consent, the King of Western Rats forced himself to suppress the joy in his heart, jumped up his calves, and left the cabin very calmly at the speed of an ordinary rat, without revealing any flaws. At the same time, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to himself for his quick thinking.
As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." After following Lu Qingshan for a long time, my IQ has obviously improved!
However, I always feel like something is wrong?
The King of Western Rat, who had not yet figured out what was wrong, had just slipped to the cabin door when he found a shadow covering him.
When he looked up, he saw the girl blocking the door of the cabin, tilting her head and looking at him with a half-smile, "Oh?"
The King of the Western Rat, who just reacted at this moment, suddenly looked as pale as death.
Humans are so cunning!!!
…
Buckle buckle —
Inside the cabin, Lu Qingshan, who was concentrating on studying sword energy, was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in." Lu Qingshan came back to his senses, put away the jade slip and said.
The cabin door was gently pushed open, and a girl in a light green shirt came in.
The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with curved eyebrows, a slightly upturned nose, occasional dimples on her cheeks, and dark, lively eyes.
In the girl's hand was the Western Rat King, who had a depressed look on his face.
"Um, Lu Qingshan, I'm back." The Western Rat King, who was held by the girl's neck and hung in the air, waved his little paws at Lu Qingshan awkwardly, "By the way, I brought back a fellow Taoist for you..."
After seeing Lu Qingshan, the girl finally let go of the hand that she was holding on the King of the Western Rat.
The Western Rat King, who had escaped from his shackles, quickly flashed back to Lu Qingshan in a panic, and complained aggrievedly: "Lu Qingshan, this is a bad woman, she cheated me..."
The corner of Lu Qingshan's mouth twitched unconsciously.
"My name is Zang Xiaojian." The girl said straight to the point, her voice very clear and sweet.
"Lu Qingshan."
