When the unconscious fish king was picked up by the scruff of his neck and thrown into the car, his body was still covered in thick, cold blood.
Its heart has been torn apart. Except for one part of its body that is still hard and strong after years of hunting, the rest of the body is riddled with holes, and its spiritual power is completely gone.
It is a cat with no talent, and it is impossible for it to form a demon pill in its life.
Back then, it killed Old Yu and took out the ancient scroll. It read it for a long, long time, until Old Fish's body stunk in front of it, and it did not understand a single word in the ancient scroll. The rotten and fishy smell of fish carcasses in the nose stimulated it, and the mixed words on the scroll seemed to be sarcastic. Then, the sound of monsters talking came from a distance. It was so frightened that the cat's hair burst out and he swallowed the ancient scroll in one gulp.
The ancient scroll later became its magic elixir.
That was the closest it came to death.
The fish king who passed out at this moment saw the scene at that time again.
When it swallowed the ancient scroll, his vision went dark, but he could clearly feel that the blackness was not the blackness of fainting, but a black country that oppressed his eyes.
It clearly couldn't see anything, but it could feel that the place was crowded with all kinds of creatures. They clung to the demon eyes like insect shadows, like a black army, kneeling neatly in front of the throne in the distance. The throne is a magnificent divine pillar big enough to support the entire Netherworld. On the divine pillar, entwined is a creature that looks like a dragon or a python. Its scales open and close with its breathing, making a metallic sound. Behind him, the outstretched wings were composed of countless white feathers, glowing with a sacred light, like an envoy from the Kingdom of God.
At this moment, it was once again in that darkness, but it did not die. The pain of tearing its body was still tormenting it. It was like a tangible hand, pulling it back from the netherworld.
After falling asleep and waking up repeatedly, the Fish King finally opened his eyes.
It felt like there was a steel needle stuck in its brain, and the slightest thought would cause severe pain.
"Hey, wake up." Someone pushed it.
The Fish King opened his eyes, and his vision seemed to be covered with a layer of gray. It took a while before he could see the shadow in front of him clearly.
It was a big black dog.
The Fish King got up tremblingly, but was pushed to the ground by the big dog. The big dog stepped on his body and said arrogantly: "I am the boss here, you must bow to me from now on." Stick to your ears, or I will bite you to death."
The Fish King was stepped on by his dog's paws. He looked back and saw that it was a messy circle with chickens, ducks, a few skinny dogs and a few ugly cats.
They are all animals that cannot be sold in the store. If they cannot be sold anymore, they will be sent to the slaughterhouse to be killed.
This big dog also won't be majestic for long.
So it gets more and more irritable every day.
Listening to the tone of its voice, the Fish King felt that it was stupider than the dumbest monster he had ever killed, so he ignored it.
Seeing that the white cat didn't speak, the fish king looked even more fierce: "Bitch cat, do you understand?"
The Fish King said coldly: "Take off your claws."
The big dog was slightly stunned. He never thought that this sick cat would dare to speak like this. He said angrily: "You bitch cat, are you impatient with life? You cats, if your meat is not delicious, you would have been killed long ago." If he was sold to the vegetable market and killed, how can he still be qualified to lie here?"
The fish king didn't move. He knew that cat meat was not delicious. This was what the hostess told him many times when she beat him.
It is precisely because of this that it survives to this day. This is its only thanksgiving to the Creator.
"Take your feet off, wild dog," the fish king repeated again.
Behind the big dog, the chickens, ducks and geese started to boil, their feathers flying all over the sky. Several skinny cats were also staring here with cunning eyes and expressions of mockery.
"Shut up, I'm a wolf!" The big dog barked: "What do you know, a wild cat? Have you ever seen a wolf? I am a wolfdog, the biggest wolfdog here."
Fish King said: "A wolf dog is still a dog."
The big dog sneered: "Is a panda a cat?"
The Fish King knew the creature he was talking about. It was the mount of the Wasteland King in ancient times. The Wasteland King turned into a glutton after his death, and his mount was also suppressed at the foot of Xuanming Mountain.
The Fish King said: "No matter what you are, as long as you are still a dog, you cannot escape the fate of being controlled."
The big dog said: "You look like this, what's your destiny? I can dig out your eyes with one paw, and I can..."
Its words stopped.
The white cat with burnt hair actually broke away from its sharp claws and climbed up from the ground, exuding a wild animal nature. There was an ugly and fatal wound on its chest, and blood was oozing from there.
The big dog felt a little scared.
It had never seen a life that could survive such a serious injury. It even felt that it was taking advantage of the cat's danger by taking action at this moment. It wanted to watch it die and watch its body rot and get maggots bit by bit. That is its greatest torture.
But the white cat got down, intending to attack.
The big dog shouted angrily: "Don't be ungrateful!"
…
When the woman in cotton-padded clothes walked into this earth-gray circle, she smelled the pungent smell of blood.
She frowned and immediately realized that the white cat had been bitten to death by a big wolf dog. This kind of thing had happened before, but she didn't pay too much attention to it. It was just that this wild cat could actually snap its fingers with its flexible claws. If you cut it off, you might be able to sell it for a lot of money...
She came to the pen where the pigs were raised and found that the chickens and ducks were hiding in the corner, shivering as if they had been caught in the rain.
In the middle is a pool of blood.
The big wolf dog was lying in a pool of blood, its body still twitching. On top of it, the white cat whose fur was stained with blood lay lying on its stomach, as if taking a nap.
The woman in earth-colored cotton-padded clothes could not understand the scene in front of her.
Those chickens and ducks also couldn't understand.
They know exactly what happened before.
The big wolf dog was still barking sternly, but the white cat shot out like an arrow. It seemed to be a born hunter, with the wildness and skill of hunting engraved in its bones.
Before the big dog could react, its neck had been bitten by the fish king, and a bloody struggle ensued. The big dog instinctively fought back in pain, its sharp claws tearing into its flesh, but it was indifferent to the pain. He seemed to be unaware, just biting its neck until it suffocated.
The woman poked the white cat with a stick. She thought it had a ferocious nature, but she did not expect that the ferocity had reached such a level.
"It seems that keeping it is a disaster."
The woman looked at the big wolf dog and sighed. This dog was originally intended to be used as a guard, but it was a pity that it was killed like this.
The woman's stick poked its wound, and the Fish King opened his eyes in pain.
It wanted to die, dragging its exhausted body and pounced on the woman.
The woman in cotton-padded clothes frowned. She was not afraid at all and punched the white cat.
She has learned martial arts since she was a child, and the Fish King, who has no training at this moment, is certainly no match for her.
Its face was distorted by the woman's fist, and it fell to the ground with a bang. Its body twitched twice, and the blood that flowed out was mixed with the blood of the wolf dog.
People outside heard the commotion and came in, asking the landlady what happened.
The proprietress pointed at the fish king: "Break its front teeth, wash it, wake it up, and put it on the Clothing Street to sell. If it still can't be sold in seven days, it will be killed."
The man took his life, looked at the cat in a pool of blood, and thought to himself, can he still survive after looking like this
…
Ning Xiaoling was watching her homework in the classroom.
She recited the mental formula on her lips, and practiced the seal formation method of expelling spirits and controlling souls on her hands.
Every time Yu Jin sees this scene, he laments the gap between people.
"How did you develop this dual-purpose skill?" Yu Jin couldn't help but ask.
Ning Xiaoling didn't hear clearly because she was still reviewing some sword movements in her mind.
It's a pity that there is such a gap between the Changshou Realm and the Purple Garden Realm. No matter how hard she tries, she will never be able to cross it in a month or two.
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Yu Jin regretted to himself: "If there hadn't been that bright corridor, Xiaoling would definitely have won the first place."
Ning Xiaoling heard this clearly and said, "Senior brother said, never blame your opponent for being too powerful."
Yu Jin curled his lips and said: "How powerful is your senior brother? Is it possible that he can be as powerful as Minglang?"
Ning Xiaoling said: "My senior brother has even killed big demons in the five realms. Do you think he is powerful?"
Yu Jin didn't believe it at all: "You're lying again, the five realms... Even in a sect as big as ours, there are only two people who have truly entered the five realms."
In Middle-earth, if a sect has two great monks in the five realms, it can be called a divine sect.
This condition is simple but harsh.
There are hundreds of millions of people in the land, and the total number of people who practice Taoism is millions. Most of them will never be able to pass through the Immortal Realm in their lifetime. For most people, a long life of 200 years in the longevity realm is their biggest long-cherished wish on the path to Taoism.
There are no more than thirty people in the entire Middle Earth who can reach such incredible realms as the Five Paths.
They are real people who can rival those ancient gods hidden in the deep mountains and forests.
The era when the ancient gods occupied the world has ended in the human world. The twelve strongest among them are invisibly ruling the world in a new and more powerful posture. And those twelve had great influence on human beings when they first took office. The demon doesn't take it seriously. They regarded their former kind as potential enemies, so the surviving ancient gods were even more oppressed. Some of them were killed by the gods in various names, and some only dared to hibernate in the secret realm of the old forest. This is also one of the reasons why the human race has been able to flourish after the disaster.
Ning Xiaoling had experienced the changes in the Yujian Tianzong and knew how difficult it was to enter the Five Paths. Sometimes, in order to fulfill one person, it would even take a sect's hundreds of years of accumulated knowledge.
"Anyway, senior brother is awesome." Ning Xiaoling wanted to end this topic and review it carefully.
Yu Jin did not let her go, and kept asking some weird questions about her senior brother. In the end, Ning Xiaoling, who had always been very talkative, rolled up her sleeves in anger.
Yu Jin then gave up and said quickly: "Actually, I have something important to tell you."
Ning Xiaoling crossed her arms across her chest and motioned for her to continue.
Yu Jin said, "Come with me to Yishang Street and I'll tell you."
Ning Xiaoling said angrily: "Are you done yet? Didn't you agree to do it after the Linggu Competition?"
Yu Jin looked at her with a fierce look and said in compromise: "Okay, okay, actually, something big happened in Nanzhou. Many teahouses are saying, I think you are from Nanzhou, so you should be very concerned about it." Bar?"
Ning Xiaoling frowned and said, "Nanzhou? Why do they care about Nanzhou's affairs?"
Yu Jin said: "It's not related to the Lei Kingdom. The affairs of the Lei Kingdom made a lot of noise before."
"Lei Guo..." Ning Xiaoling vaguely guessed something.
Yu Jin continued: "At that time, the empress of the Lei Kingdom was killed, and the murderer fled to Nanzhou. It seems that she just couldn't get along with the empress, and she killed another empress in Nanzhou."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Ning Xiaoling shouted sternly: "How could sister Xiang'er die?"
"Sister Xiang'er? It turns out I know her from a young age." Yu Jin had never seen her so fierce before, and said in silence, "How do I know? I just heard about it. If you really want to know, I will accompany you to Yishang Street. Ask?"
Ning Xiaoling looked at her angrily and finally nodded.
Yishang Street is not far from the Ancient Spirit Sect, and it is because of the protection of the Ancient Spirit Sect that it is able to thrive.
Ning Xiaoling walked with her for a while. She was not interested in the colorful flowers on the street and was always absent-minded along the way.
"This dress suits you well. I'll buy it for you."
"No, Zongli's robe is very comfortable."
"This jewelry?"
"don't want."
"There are small animals selling there, do you want to go and have a look?"
"No, I hate cats and dogs the most."
Ning Xiaoling refused one after another.
Yu Jin said: "How can you not be happy when you go out to play?"
Ning Xiaoling said: "You are here to play, not me."
Yu Jin said weakly and took her to the largest teahouse on Yishang Street.
She pulled Ning Xiaoling and sat down happily. The storyteller straightened his clothes, the gavel flapped, and then... the whole building shook.
Ning Xiaoling looked at the storyteller and admired sincerely: "There is indeed a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in Yishang Street."
Then she realized something was wrong.
She turned her head away and saw Yu Jin, whose beauty turned pale, looking out of the window in horror, saying in a trembling voice: "It seems... something happened."
…
What hit the teahouse was a black, huge carriage.
The wooden wall on the side of the tea house was smashed, and the horse was injured and fell to the ground. The iron-wrapped wheels rolled away, and the carriage also fell to the ground. In the dark carriage, a dull sound came out, as if there was a beating heart. Wrapped in it.
The scene caused a lot of chaos in the streets.
The groom driving the horse was trying to help the big horse. He was plainly dressed and average-looking, but his strength was astonishing.
The teahouse owner walked out of the building and when he wanted to discuss the claim, he glanced at him and was startled by his sinister expression.
"You... you..." The shopkeeper looked at the groom. He had lived for many years, and he could tell at a glance that this groom was not a simple man.
The groom raised his head, his face suddenly became much more pleasant. He took out a lot of silver coins from his arms, stuffed them all into the shopkeeper's hand, and apologized several times.
The shopkeeper's expression softened a lot and asked: "What do you do?"
The groom said: "Businessman, I don't know what happened to the horse today. It hit the building like crazy."
As he spoke, his eyes searched around.
He himself was unwilling to admit that the reason why his horse lost control earlier was because a damn white cat rushed up...
The groom quickly helped the horse up, and then took a look at the iron-clad carriage to confirm that there was no leakage. Before his expression could relax, a group of people in official uniforms had already surrounded him and asked him to show his documents for transporting goods. The groom smiled kindly, took out the document and handed it over. Then several officers and soldiers looked at the sealed carriage and asked to check what was inside.
The groom looked embarrassed and said that these things were all belonging to noble people and it was not convenient to dismantle them.
The officials did not give in. They upheld their duties and insisted on investigating.
The groom's eyes wandered, as if he was thinking about some countermeasures. Suddenly, Yu Jin knelt down, pointed under the carriage, and whispered softly: "There seems to be a cat there."
The groom's eyes lit up. He stared fiercely at the location pointed by Yu Jin, whipped it, and said, "It was it, it overturned the car."
Everyone looked around and found a white cat lying under the carriage. The white cat was clasping the iron sheet of the carriage with its paws, looking fierce.
Just a little bit closer... Just a little bit closer... The Fish King was enthusiastic.
It was put in a cage and taken to the Clothing Street to be sold. It thought about running away, but even if its body escaped, it wouldn't be able to survive for long, so it kept lying in the cage to recharge its batteries, thinking about getting out first. Eat for a few days, and then sneak away on the sixth day.
But today, this black carriage passed in front of it, and it could no longer hold back.
It smelled a special smell.
It has been dealing with this kind of breath for thousands of years, and it will never admit it even if it is wrapped in layers of iron sheets.
That's the breath of the ancient god!
There is an embryo of an ancient god hidden in this carriage!
What a rare divine object this is, why is it being paraded around in a carriage
It didn't have time to think too much, it knew that this was its fleeting opportunity... As long as it could eat the embryo of the ancient god, it would have a chance to start over on its path of cultivation.
Its sharp teeth were cut off by pliers, but it still bit the cage with brute force and escaped desperately.
The fish king successfully stopped the car and pretended to disappear into the crowd. After a while, it secretly left and returned, sneaking under the car, trying to scratch the bottom of the car and the shell of the embryo.
But just when he was just a hair away from success, the groom's whip came over.
The groom was a master of concealment. This whip was as fast as lightning, and he whipped it from under the car directly to the ground.
Without waiting for the officials to react, the groom got on his horse in an instant and drove away with his whip neighing.
There are also many masters hiding in the City of Clothes. They have been keeping an eye on this place since the carriage entered the city. When the chaos began, people hiding in the dark appeared one after another, and the lights of swords and swords lit up without warning.
The Fish King's body was whipped over and fell to the ground. It wanted to catch up, but its claws were full of blood, and its body was whipped again. It was difficult to move, and the carriage was surrounded by many people who came secretly. Under the cover of the enemy, they were already running towards the center of the city.
Ning Xiaoling and Yu Jin looked at each other.
None of them realized what happened.
In the distance, a woman wearing cotton clothes saw the Fish King from afar, and came over cursing.
The fish king knew that he would definitely die today, so he ignored the woman in cotton-padded clothes and just stared at Yu Jin fiercely.
It was this woman who destroyed her own hope of resurrection.
It mustered up its strength and rushed towards Yu Jin.
A white shadow flashed.
Its body stopped in the air.
A hand grabbed the back of its neck.
The Fish King looked over angrily.
She was a delicate and petite young girl. She was wearing a white dress. She had red lips, white teeth, and smart almond eyes. Her long black hair fell down from her back as thin as a knife, and her youthful and beautiful body stood upright and pretty.
this…
Why is this temperament so similar to that woman
The Fish King couldn't help but think of Lu Jiaoyou.
The fish king's front paws suddenly stretched forward, scratching non-stop, trying to scratch the pretty little face, but Ning Xiaoling didn't even blink, and just calmly carried the crazy cat and talked with it Keep your distance.
She looked at Yu Jin.
Yu Jin was in shock. She pointed at the cat, but she didn't say any curse words. She just said: "This cat... is so ugly..."
After hearing this, the Fish King screamed in agony, stopped struggling, and dropped his hand.
It feels that its life is a bit ridiculous.
Fortunately, the joke is almost over.
Behind him, the woman in cotton-padded clothes came over.
She angrily carried a broken cage and said, "This is our lost cat."
Ning Xiaoling handed it over: "Then return it to you."
She grabbed the cat and instead of stuffing it back into the cage, she threw it to the ground.
Ning Xiaoling frowned and stopped, "Why do you want to kill it?"
The woman said angrily: "I discipline my own cat and you still want to discipline it? Not only did this wild cat kill my dog, but it ate seven days of food in vain and couldn't sell it. It also bitten the cage to my mother. This is a money-losing thing. I won't fight it." Who will it kill?"
With that said, she stepped on the cat's head again.
No matter how strong the fish king's vitality was, it couldn't withstand such torture. At this moment, it couldn't even recall its own life, and passed out under the woman's dirty shoes.
The breath will be extinguished.
Yu Jin took her hand and said, "Let's go."
Ning Xiaoling thought for a while, hummed, and turned to leave.
The sound of the woman beating the cat kept ringing behind her.
Ning Xiaoling finally stopped: "Stop."
The woman asked: "What's wrong? Little girls don't like blood?"
Ning Xiaoling said seriously: "I want to buy it."
The woman coldly refused: "I won't sell it anymore. Today I'm just going to beat it to death to vent my anger!"
Ning Xiaoling frowned and said, "We are..."
Yu Jin stopped her.
Ning Xiaoling then remembered that Gu Ling Sect had a sect rule that when traveling alone, the name of the sect was not allowed to be revealed unless absolutely necessary. This was to prevent many disciples from using their identity to act as a master.
Yu Jin asked her: "This cat is so vicious, what's so good about it?"
Ning Xiaoling said: "Because when I was a child, my mother also said that I was a money-losing thing."
Yu Jin stared at her for a while, looking at Ning Xiaoling's lonely expression, and suddenly felt a little strange.
"It's that simple?"
"Um."
…
Ning Xiaoling carried the dying white cat back to the sect.
"I didn't expect your family to be so old." Ning Xiaoling said.
Yu Jin sighed and said: "Do you think the door of Gulingzong is so easy to enter? I can come here to eat and wait for death, but my family has spent a lot of money."
Yu Jin had taken out his own waist card earlier, and when the woman saw the Yu family's waist card, she was so frightened that she knelt down and repeatedly said that she was ignorant of Taishan. In Yishang Street, if you offend the Yu family, you won't even have a foothold.
Ning Xiaoling asked: "Does our sect allow cats to be raised?"
Yu Jin said: "Of course I won't."
Ning Xiaoling said: "Let's keep it in the back mountain, where there are few people."
Yu Jin said: "Let's see if it can survive first."
The Fish King didn’t know where his faith came from.
Its teeth were shattered, its ribs were completely broken, its meridians in its limbs were shattered, and its heart was as cracked as a garlic clove.
But it's not dead yet.
At this moment it suddenly understood.
It's definitely not that he is lucky, it must be Master Bai Zang who is controlling something in the dark.
But what is the reason for living
What other value does it have
In its confusion, it heard the conversation between two girls. They seemed to be discussing what to name themselves.
Naming a cat... is such a boring thing that only a little girl can do.
The Fish King sneered and thought
"What should I call it?"
"If your name is Xiaoling, then he'll be called Xiaobai, right?"
"Too casual."
"Hmm... I think it's so strong, why not call it Xiaoqiang?"
“It sounds ugly…”
"This is not good, that is not good, you can take it yourself, hum."
Ning Xiaoling looked at it, thought seriously for a while, and came to an idea.
"We are the Ancient Spirit Sect, and this is the former site of Hades. Why not just call it..."
"Listen!"
This sentence exploded in its ears like a prophecy, making its hair stand on end.
It opened its eyes suddenly and stared at the little girl's face.
At this moment, whether it was an illusion or not, it once again saw the divine pillar in the darkness... and the feathered serpent in charge of the underworld entwined on the divine pillar.
