Originally, the moonlight was very weak, and in the canyon, it was almost pitch black.
Teng Qingshan stood at the bottom of the canyon, standing still in place.
He is listening with his ears!
"Where did this monster go?" Teng Qingshan listened for a long time, except for the sound of the wind and the sound of fallen leaves being blown by the wind, he couldn't detect the monster running.
"This monster should live in the Flame Mountain. It has been here for a long time, so it must be very familiar. It may be difficult to find it." Teng Qingshan settled down, walked in the canyon, carefully observed the surroundings of the canyon, and wanted to find it. Found some traces. However, after searching for a long time in this canyon, Teng Qingshan did not find any trace of the monster.
"Unexpectedly, let this monster escape!" Teng Qingshan was helpless.
As a last resort, Teng Qingshan chose to go back!
…
However, when Teng Qingshan jumped off the cliff and landed above the foothold at the bottom of the canyon, there was a depression on the cliff about twenty feet away, and the four hooves and sharp claws of that monster easily inserted into the rock , the huge body curled up in this sunken area.
From the outside, it is impossible to find this monster hiding here.
The monster's cold eyes with a dark red light occasionally glanced at the canyon below.
This hideout lasted for more than two hours. At the darkest moment before dawn the next day, when the canyon was completely dark, the monster jumped down like lightning, fell into the canyon, and then flew away several times. up the canyon.

In the Jinjiazhuang martial arts training ground, torches were lit, and all the martial artists gathered here.
"What is that monster? It's stronger than a buffalo. I chopped off the dense scales, but it hurt my palm instead."
"That's a monster! Those scales are absolutely invulnerable. In my opinion, even the armor made of black iron materials is far inferior to the scale armor of this monster!" The warriors were admiring.
"If you kill that monster, peel its skin, and make a suit of scales. Haha... that's definitely a treasure."
"Stop dreaming, with your little ability, you also want to kill that monster?"
A group of warriors seemed very excited. For them, seeing a monster was enough. As for whether they could kill monsters, most warriors of average strength never dared to think about it.
The warriors were excited, but the clansmen of Jinjiazhuang were anxious and helpless.
The patriarch of the Jin clan was full of anxiety. Looking at the group of martial artists who were talking wantonly, he couldn't help shouting: "My lords! I don't know if any lords killed that black monster?" He shouted, but The warriors talked and laughed excitedly with each other, ignoring the patriarch at all.
A man next to the patriarch got anxious and shouted: "You warriors! My Jin Family Village is facing a catastrophe! Please help, but you can't kill monsters, and you are still talking and joking here, you still have... "
"Shut up!" the patriarch of the Jin clan yelled.
"Patriarch." The man's eyes were red with anxiety.
The entire Jinjiazhuang clan was tortured by this monster and almost went crazy. Now that the warriors are still proud, of course they feel uncomfortable.
"Hey, boy!" A big man with a long knife on his back and a red birthmark on his face looked at the angry man with a sneer, "Why, you are upset by our brothers talking?" The other warriors in the group also looked at the Jinjiazhuang man with half-smiles.
The man from the Jin family clenched his fists tightly and his face was ugly.
"Damn, have you forgotten my fist?" A frivolous voice sounded, "You don't have the ability to kill monsters and bully ordinary mountain people? What kind of warriors are you? Let me see, buy a tofu, Just hit and die!" That Duan Hou walked over with a smile.
The faces of those martial artists turned red immediately, and they looked at each other without daring to speak out.
Duan Hou's strength, the few of them have personally experienced Duan Hou's strength when they first came to Jinjiazhuang.
"Brother Qin Lang!" Duan Hou was suddenly overjoyed and shouted into the distance.
In the distance, Teng Qingshan had just fallen into the training ground, and when he saw Duan Hou running over, he walked over: "Brother Duan!"
"Seeing that Brother Qin Lang arrived so late, he should be chasing and killing that monster. I wonder if Brother Qin Lang has caught up with him?" Duan Hou asked.
As soon as these words came out, a large number of Jinjiazhuang people gathered in the martial arts training ground looked nervously at Teng Qingshan expectantly.
Being stared at by thousands of people, Teng Qingshan's heart throbbed, and Teng Qingshan could understand those eyes full of expectation. How much these Jinjiazhuang people longed for the monsters to be killed.
"That monster is too cunning! I failed to kill it." Teng Qingshan shook his head.
The eyes of thousands of clansmen in Jinjiazhuang were all darkened, and they were almost desperate.
"However, that monster was also injured by me. With the wisdom of this monster, it is estimated that it will not dare to come to Jinjiazhuang in the near future." Teng Qingshan said again. This sentence made the faces of many clansmen in the surrounding Jinjiazhuang look happy.
"My lord, tell me, that monster doesn't dare to come anytime soon?" The Jin clan chief ran over.
Duan Hou on the side said: "Old man, that monster is as smart as a human! It was injured this time and suffered a loss. It will not dare to come again in the near future!" Duan Hou saw it with his own eyes. Scratched the latch of the residential house and sneaked into the house. It is impossible for such a wise monster to come back the next day after suffering a loss.
"Big brother, big brother!" Suddenly a figure rushed to Teng Qingshan's side and grabbed Teng Qingshan's trouser leg.
Teng Qingshan looked down, it was a child who looked to be only six or seven years old.
The child looked up at Teng Qingshan, with tears in his eyes: "Big brother, I beg you, you must kill that monster and avenge my parents! Please!"
"Second baby, let go quickly." The head of the Jin family said. He dragged the child aside, in fact he was afraid that Teng Qingshan would be dissatisfied and killed the child. After all... Among warriors, there are some who are inhuman.
"I beg you, big brother," the child cried.
The head of the Jin family said, "My lord, many members of our Jin family have died in the past month. Erwa's parents were eaten by that monster in one night. Fortunately, Erwa didn't die." Live in the same room with his parents, otherwise, he will be eaten that day."
When Teng Qingshan saw that child, his heart trembled slightly.
In his previous life, he was an orphan!
So young, there will be no parents!
"Don't worry!" Duan Hou patted his chest at the Jinjiazhuang clansman, "We have a large number of fighters, and there are not enough people today. There will definitely be more and stronger fighters in the future. That monster must die one day .” After hearing this, those members of the Jin Family Village felt a little better in their hearts.
"Brother Qin Lang, do you know what kind of monster that monster is?" Duan Hou asked, "I also know many monsters, but I don't know this kind of monster."
"I don't know him either." Teng Qingshan shook his head.
Teng Qingshan's time in Guiyuanzong was too short, and he never searched for books about monsters and beasts.
"Brother Qin Lang, did you find anything special after chasing that monster, maybe you can determine what kind of monster it is." Duan Hou said.
Teng Qingshan didn't hide it either: "That monster can suddenly turn red all over, and its speed increases sharply, throwing me off all at once."
"The whole body is red?" Duan Hou was startled, then his eyes lit up.
…
On the training ground, the Iron Clothes Sect master "Jin Tao" also heard the conversation between Teng Qingshan and Duan Hou. When he heard 'full body is red', Jin Tao showed a trace of ecstasy: "All body is red? Is this... is this a red-scaled beast? Yes! The records about the red-scaled beast, when the red-scaled beast was young, were Black! When the Red Scaled Beast swallows the "Black Fire Spiritual Fruit" as an adult, the scale armor will turn red all over and become three feet tall!"
"The red-scaled cub." Jin Tao thought to himself, "The matter cannot be spread, otherwise, the black fire spirit fruit will be difficult to seize."
Just then—
"Haha, it's the Red Scale Beast, it's the Red Scale Beast!" A loud laugh rang out. Jin Tao's face changed drastically, and it was Duan Hou who was laughing at the moment.
"Duanhou." Jin Tao even rushed over and glared.
"Why are you staring at me?" Duan Houxuan even laughed, "Haha, I understand, you want your Tieyimen to monopolize that treasure?"
"Stop talking." Jin Tao lowered his voice.
Teng Qingshan was at the side, puzzled in his heart, and asked: "Brother Duan, what are you talking about the red scaled beast?"
Jin Tao glared at Teng Qingshan immediately, but Teng Qingshan ignored him.
Duan Hou smiled and said: "Some people don't want me to say it, but I want to say it! Brother Qin Lang, this red-scaled beast is an extremely powerful monster. Legend has it that it is more than three feet high and five or six feet long. It's like a small mountain, and its whole body is red, even the innately strong can hardly break through its scales! And it can breathe out flames, and the flames can melt gold and iron!"
Teng Qingshan was shocked when he heard this.
How tall is three feet? That's a colossus two or three stories high, and it's hard for a congenitally strong person to break through its scales, and breathe out flames of molten gold? This is indeed a terrifying monster.
Jin Tao next to him secretly hated.
But Duan Hou's strength is clear to him, he was injured when chasing the Red Scaled Beast, and he is definitely not Duan Hou's opponent, not to mention that there is a mysterious master 'Qin Lang' who can hurt the Red Scaled Beast.
"However, that is the adult body of the red-scaled beast. In the book, it is recorded that the red-scaled beast was a child, but the scales are black, and the whole body can turn red in an emergency. These two sentences are too short. I didn't think of it before. This is a red-scaled beast. Now I know, this is a red-scaled cub, a red-scaled beast that hasn't grown up yet!" Duan Hou said in detail.
Teng Qingshan couldn't laugh or cry in his heart.
Such a defensive monster is actually just a cub.
"But no matter how powerful the red-scaled beast is, we can't subdue it. What really moves the warrior's heart is the spirit treasure 'Black Fire Spirit Fruit' that is associated with the red-scaled beast." Duan Hou's eyes lit up, and he kept saying, "Qin Brother Wolf, when the red-scaled beast grows up, it can only transform after eating the "Black Fire Spiritual Fruit". It sheds its black scales and grows red scales! It becomes a terrifying monster! We warriors can grab it Before that, I took the black fire spirit fruit!"
Teng Qingshan's heart skipped a beat.
The red-scaled beast ate the black fire spirit fruit, and turned into a monster that even the innately strong would fear.
What if people eat it
