"How about forgetting about our bet? It was just a joke." Li Xuan said to Dugu Chong.
"What are you kidding? I, Dugu Chong, keep my word. If I can't catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King for you, I, Dugu Chong, will be your apprentice." Dugu Chong blew his beard and stared.
Li Xuan said with a smile: "I have seen your skills before. If there was only one Ice Silkworm Gu King, you would definitely be able to catch it. But now there are two, which is unexpected. No one wins if you lose, that's fair, right?"
"No, a man promises a thousand gold, if I don't catch the ice silkworm, I will recognize you as my master and never break my promise." Having said that, Dugu Chong turned to look at Zhou Wen and said, "If Li Xuan is my master, Zhou Wen you are My uncle, my uncle taught my nephew a little skill, isn't that too much?"
Zhou Wen stared at Dugu Chong dumbfounded. He really couldn't believe it. This guy turned out to be one of the six great heroic families, a member of the Dugu family who dominates the southern district. This is too shameless.
"Okay, did you have this idea from the beginning?" Li Xuan was also stunned, and then realized that he seemed to be fooled.
Dugu Chong laughed and said: "My Dugu Chong's purpose in life is to put practicality first, so what if I recognize you as my master? You still want me to teach you how to cultivate Gu. In name, you are my master, but in fact I am still your master." , It’s just a name, it doesn’t matter. If Zhou Wen can teach me how to raise phoenixes, let me call you Master, let alone Master.”
Zhou Wen and Li Xuan were dumbfounded. It was the first time they had seen someone like Dugu Chong, and it was an eye-opener.
"I really don't know how to raise a phoenix. This stupid bird insists on following me. I usually don't care about it. It eats whatever it has. I can't teach you." Zhou Wen said.
But Dugu Chong immediately shook his head and said: "No, no, I have read about the habits and eating habits of phoenixes in ancient books. If I have a phoenix bird, I will know how to feed it myself. I don't need you to teach me about it. .”
"Then what else are you going to learn from me? You won't let me help you find another phoenix, will you? I don't have that kind of ability." Zhou Wen asked doubtfully.
"I know how to be afraid, but I don't have a phoenix. I just want to learn from you. How can I make the phoenix willingly follow me?" Dugu Chong said.
"I've said it all, this stupid bird is naturally willing to follow me, and there's no trick to it, maybe it's just a better character." Zhou Wen said.
"Old Zhou is right. When the three of us met Little Bird together, only Old Zhou was selected." Li Xuan also said.
"Everything in this world has a cause and effect. It cannot be without a reason. If there is no reason, it can only mean that you have not discovered the reason. It may be that the vitality formula you practice is relatively special, or it may be that you have a hidden secret. Special physique, it may also be something on your body that attracts it, in short, there must be a reason, and all I need to know is this reason."
Dugu Chong just said a few more serious words, and then said to Zhou Wen with a playful smile: "Anyway, I will probably not be able to catch ice silkworms this time. From now on, you will be my Uncle Zhou. If you like it, you can teach it. Teach, let me study by your side..."
Zhou Wen didn't want to talk to Dugu Chong anymore, turned to Li Xuan and said, "Tomorrow I will help you catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King, but after you catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King, you have to lend it to me for two days."
"Borrow? How do you borrow it?" Dugu Chong curled his lips and said, "Gu is something that cannot be changed once you recognize the owner. How can you return it after borrowing it?"
"I don't want the Ice Silkworm Gu King to recognize the master, I just need to borrow it to do one thing, and I'll return it to you when it's done," Zhou Wen said.
"Of course it's no problem, don't say it's a loan, you can take it directly." Li Xuan smiled.
Dugu Chong was a little upset while listening: "If you want to use the myth of the phoenix to catch the ice silkworm Gu king, I advise you not to go. Although the Phoenix bird is powerful, you are only a larva, the ice silkworm Gu The king will not be afraid of it, if one fails, it may kill the divine phoenix, and it will be a big loss."
"Let's go and have a look at the place tomorrow." Zhou Wen also knew that it would be difficult to catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King, but the people from the Xiao family would also go to catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King tomorrow, and this was what he wanted.
He wanted to take away the Ice Silkworm Gu King from the Xiao family, and then exchange the Ice Silkworm Gu King for the Gu girl.
The exchange of two Ice Silkworm Gu Kings for one might cost Xiao Tian his life, Gu Manli, as long as Xiao Tianfang is not a fool, he will definitely change.
After all, he had already planned to erase the spiritual consciousness of the Gu girl. At that time, Gu Manli's ability would be greatly reduced, and she might not even be as good as an ice silkworm. In comparison, everyone knows how to select.
"Okay, tomorrow I'll see how you catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King. If you can catch it, I, Dugu Chong, will immediately pay homage to my master and uncle." Dugu Chong said, obviously he didn't like Zhou Wen.
"Come on, being your master doesn't give you any sense of accomplishment." Li Xuan said.
"You can't say that. You may not have a sense of accomplishment now, but if you are walking in the southern district and meet someone from Dugu's family, who says he is my Dugu Chong's master, how prestigious and respectful you are, you won't feel that there is no sense of accomplishment." A sense of accomplishment." Dugu Chong said with a smile.
Both Zhou Wen and Li Xuan looked at him contemptuously. With his character, I don't know how many masters and uncles he has recognized outside. It's no wonder that the Dugu family would admit it.
Before dawn the next day, Zhou Wen called Li Xuan and Dugu Chong up and told them to go to the place where the Ice Silkworm Gu King was.
He heard the conversation between Xiao Tianfang and Xiao Liuqi before, and he knew that this was the time to go to the Xiao family, if he went late, maybe the Xiao family had already succeeded.
It's not good to go early, the Xiao family didn't arrive, they took the Ice Silkworm Gu King, so the Xiao Family wouldn't know that the Ice Silkworm Gu King was in Zhou Wen's hands.
Although Dugu Chong was a little puzzled and didn't know why Zhou Wen had to go so early, he still took the two of them to Yinfeng Ridge.
When they arrived at the place, they found that someone was already fighting the Ice Silkworm Gu King, and the two leaders were Xiao Liuqi and Xiao Tianfang.
In front of Xiao Tianfang, there was a football-sized silkworm crawling on the ground, where the silkworm crawled, the ground was immediately covered with frost, which showed how low the temperature on its body was.
"No wonder Dugu Chong said that the little bird might not be able to restrain the ice silkworm. With such ice power, the little bird's phoenix flame will definitely have much less effect on it." Zhou Wen thought to himself.
Xiao Liuqi found Zhou Wen and the others, and when he saw Dugu Chong, his expression changed slightly, obviously because he was afraid that Dugu Chong would come to snatch the Ice Silkworm Gu King.
