Tian Gang Chapter 191: Transformation (4)
Compared to this stupid frog, I am more concerned about Jiao Ye's safety. He is lying there, and it seems to be fine. But this is a fetus, and a strange fetus, and no one knows what will go wrong.
However, the funny quack kept clicking, but remained steadfast and kept knocking towards this side desperately...
The old Taoist didn't know where it came from, but he said it had an evil aura. This evil was different from that of a ghost, and was more like the aura of some extremely yin places. It was surprising to see this aura on a living thing.
Everyone around me laughed so hard that they held their bellies. A few minutes later, the frog "knocked" all the way to my feet. Looking at its face full of dust, I suddenly thought that if I took this guy to ask for New Year's money, I might knock the old people into bankruptcy.
It was so close to me, less than half a meter away. Only after such a close observation did I find it was cuter than I had imagined. The single horn on its forehead was a very dreamy purple. The horn was not very long, about the same length as my index finger. Circles of black threads extended upward without interruption.
Next to the horns are two pairs of small wings, mostly black in color, with a purple line outlining them, forming a perfectly parallel line.
It actually looks very cute, but because it has hit the ground too many times, its face hits the ground first every time, and now it is as dirty as a rag doll in the garbage dump.
As soon as I had this thought, it looked at me and suddenly stuck out a wide and big tongue like a palm leaf fan from its mouth. The tongue was purple-red in color, and under my stunned gaze, it "slapped" on my face and then retracted in an instant.
Then, its face was clean...
I broke out in cold sweats as I watched this. This is a creature that is more ferocious than the dragon. Its way of washing its face is very special and unparalleled.
Are you sure it's not dangerous? The little guy in front of me kept looking at me, which made me a little nervous.
Probably not, the old Taoist priest replied.
Should? You can't be sure...
Before I could finish my sentence, I saw it take a few steps forward until it came to my legs. Then, it just stood there, staring at my legs.
Is this... frozen? Or is he thinking? I couldn't help but look at the Taoist priest: Are you sure this guy doesn't eat meat?
The old Taoist did not answer, but stared at the little thing below seriously.
Forget it, you stay here to study. If a strange thing stares at your calves all the time, they will cramp. I'd better go see Master Jiao. After saying this to the Taoist priest, I raised my legs and was about to leave.
The weight on my legs suddenly increased. I lowered my head and was surprised to see that the little thing had hugged my calves with its wings without me noticing.
What are you doing? Are you trying to molest me?
After putting down its legs, it began to rub up along my legs little by little. Now it is certain that it was staring at my legs in a daze, probably thinking about how to climb up.
I have said before, the IQ of new species of frogs will not be very high.
I watched it crawling little by little with its wings, trying very hard. Even if it fell, it would never give up and start over. I suddenly remembered when Jiao Ye was just born. At that time, Jiao Ye was just as silly as it was, and kept trying to crawl onto me. Even if I pushed it away, it would still crawl over without stopping.
Thinking of that scene, I suddenly had an inexplicable liking for this little thing.
Being able to transform with Master Jiao, even if it has an evil aura, it shouldn’t be a monster. At least, it seems to be very kind to me.
I bent down, thought for a moment, then reached out my hands and pinched both sides of its wings, trying to pick it up.
But as soon as I put my hand on it, it started shaking violently as if it had been electrocuted, and then fell to the ground with a "thump".
The big eyes looked at me innocently, the wings flapped, and the two thin claws fluttered.
I couldn't help laughing, so I bent down again, pinched its wings with both hands, and tried to pick it up. But as soon as I put my hands on it, its whole body started shaking violently. When I took my hands away, it looked at me innocently again. When I put my hands on it, I started to get electric shocks again...
After repeating this several times, I was suddenly certain that under the wings of this thing were armpits...
After I bent down again and moved my hands down a little, its body stopped shaking and it allowed me to pick it up from the ground.
This thing's body is very soft, and I applied a little force with my hands, and its waist, well, if its waist and mouth were on the same level... Anyway, as soon as I applied force with my hands, its waist was pinched thinner, and the soft stuff inside its body surged up like water, and its two eyes widened instantly.
At this moment, everything in front of my eyes suddenly went dark, and then became bright again.
Hahahahaha…
Huh? What happened? I looked around and heard earth-shattering laughter.
It licked you. The old Taoist priest replied.
Hahahahahahahahaha…the beautiful girl beside me was almost having cramps from laughing.
I wanted to throw the little thing away immediately, but its eyes were so innocent that I could only use my hands to shrug my shoulders helplessly.
It's so cute, let me play with it! The little beauty laughed and reached out to grab it.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a burning sensation on my hand. The old Taoist grabbed the little beauty's hand and stopped her from doing anything else. And I also saw that the little thing's eyes suddenly became extremely deep, like two small black holes, and the black spiral pattern on the horn on its head lit up with a faint light.
Don't move. The Taoist priest threw the little beauty's hand back.
The little beauty was naturally frightened when she saw the extremely aggressive posture of the new species of frog. She suddenly snorted and said: It's not as fun as that little bastard. I don't want to play anymore!
That’s right, Mr. Jiao!
I didn't bother to continue studying, and quickly ran towards Mr. Jiao with the little thing in my arms. As I was running, I suddenly heard footsteps beside me. I turned around and saw the little beauty following me.
What are you looking at? I'm looking to see if it's healed. If it is, I'll beat it up! The little beauty said.
I rolled my eyes and at this time, I had already run to the side of Mr. Jiao.
It was still lying on the ground, and it looked much more energetic than before. When it saw me coming, it even raised its head and hissed at me twice, then climbed up my legs skillfully.
In the blink of an eye, the dragon climbed onto my arm. It was longer than before, almost two feet long. Even with its head wrapped around my arm, it could still rub against my face.
The cool feeling and gentle touch made me suddenly feel a lump in my throat. This was not sadness, but incomparable happiness and joy.
Mr. Jiao is still my Mr. Jiao, it hasn't changed.
Although it has more golden spots on its body and a bulge on its forehead, it still treats me the same as before and has not changed due to the loss of blood connection.
The little beauty was watching from the side, her arms moved slightly, but then she put them down again.
The dragon turned his head to look at her, and suddenly "hissed" twice, as if to say hello. The little beauty smiled happily and raised her hand quickly, and the dragon crawled over along her arm.
Then, I heard a "pop" sound, and Mr. Jiao's tail hit the little beauty hard in the face.
Ah! You little bastard, I'm going to kill you! The little beauty screamed, but Mr. Jiao had already jumped down and was crawling around. The little beauty spitted and ran after him.
My eyes widened as I watched. Master Jiao must have gotten addicted to spanking her...The little beauty was even more miserable. The man wasn't even saying hello to her. He was basically saying: Put your hand here. I'm going to spank you to satisfy my desire.
Then, she obediently stretched out her hand...
The little thing in his arms struggled a few times, as if trying to get down. Could this guy also want to join in?
I put it on the ground and watched it run towards Mr. Jiao and the little beauty. However, after a few steps, it "clicked" again... I tried to stand up, ran a few more steps, and "clicked" again...
I was sweating profusely watching this. If it continued to go on like this, not only would it not be able to catch up with those two guys, even if it did, it would be knocked dumb... although it was already dumb enough to begin with.
The laughter around them became louder, and the Yuanling elders came over and watched the little thing click back and forth with great interest. Every click brought laughter from the bottom of their hearts.
These people really have the same bad taste.
What a pity, it almost turned into a dragon, the old Taoist priest suddenly said.
I looked at him with a cry, but heard the old man from Yuanling say: It is indeed a pity, but judging from the protruding flesh, it should not take too long. It seems that its transformation is far more complicated and more bizarre than we imagined. It is not easy to get to this point after throwing away so much power.
The old Taoist nodded, then he bowed to the old man from Yuanling and said: Thank you for your help, senior.
The old man from Yuanling smiled and waved his hand, saying: You are just one of the reasons why I came this time. That evil cult is too rampant, and many people in the four provinces have disappeared because of them. Therefore, if we can destroy some of them, it can also be regarded as a vent for those missing people. It’s just that due to the secular rules of decades ago, we can’t be too active and can’t get rid of the evil cult in one fell swoop...
Are you here because of the cult? I looked at the old man from Yuanling in surprise: Are those practitioners also from the cult?
That's not the case, they are just ordinary practitioners. The old man from Yuanling said: It's just that this plan was initiated by the evil cult behind the scenes, and the purpose is unknown, but...
Maybe... I know what they are going to do, I said hesitantly.
Oh? Everyone around me looked at me, even the Taoist priest.
I sorted out my thoughts and told them all about the appearance of Zhou Cheng, the current head of the Zhou family, and what he said, the strange bug that was sent into my stomach, and my mother's angry and astonished words.
Bug? The old man from Yuanling frowned.
Several old witch doctors came up and touched my stomach with their wrinkled hands. After a while, they shook their heads. At this time, the old Taoist priest also came up and put his hand on my stomach. A warm feeling came from his hand, flowing in my stomach like a warm current.
No, your stomach is clean. The old Taoist took back his palm and said: Perhaps you have been deceived.
Cheating? My heart skipped a beat because I had thought of this answer before.
Yes. The old Taoist continued: If you use the Underworld Jade Pendant with your own power, then you are the only one you can see. But if someone else helps you with their power, they can use a special method to share your vision. You should understand this.
I nodded, because when we were in Xishuangbanna, the old Taoist used this to find out the location of the underground corpse.
Seeing me nod, the old Taoist continued: The so-called strange insect that absorbs your blood and flesh essence and transforms it into Taoist power should only absorb your slowly recovering Taoist power and return it to you after transforming it in a special way. In this way, it seems that someone is directly helping you use the Tongming Jade Pendant. Their purpose should be to find out the location of your mother. According to what you said, the golden light may have opened a portal for space travel, just like when we came out of the underworld.
This requires a strong force. Those who want to deal with your mother are not ordinary forces. The old man from Yuanling said: The cult and the Zhou family are only part of what we know. Perhaps there are other more powerful people among them.
How do you know it must be a cult? I asked.
Among the missing people there are members of my Wu Gu tribe. An old man who helped me investigate said: He is my grandson, and he has a clone of my life Gu on him. Before he died, I used my life Gu to investigate there and learned some things.
The old man spoke calmly, not sad about his grandson's death. But the biggest reason these people came here to help me was to disrupt the cult's actions, so his calmness was just a disguise.
However, when other practitioners intended to eradicate the cult, my mother helped them.
For practitioners, mutual assistance and mutual benefit are the most common things. The old man from Yuanling said: Your mother must have a reason for helping them. Just like your grandfather helped me and Master, it was definitely not out of kindness.
The old man from Yuanling was not very polite, perhaps because his mother had helped a cult. But he was telling the truth, and I could not refute him, so I could only continue to listen.
Therefore, if the cult wants to plot against your mother, they must have a surprising purpose. We have not found out the purpose yet. The old man from Yuanling said. But what is certain is that they definitely did not want to kill your mother, because it is almost impossible to kill a complete Eight Ropes inheritance. Therefore, their purpose is more likely to delay your mother.
So they can get other things done without being interrupted? I gave my guess.
That's right. The old man Yuanling nodded: Therefore, protecting you is also for this purpose. Because you are the descendant of Ba Suo, you may understand better why your mother was stopped.
I don't know... I lowered my head in frustration : I only know three Taoist methods, and I am not very proficient in them. All the ancient books at home were burned. Before my grandfather died, he seemed to have left something for Grandpa Shi, but I don't know if it has anything to do with these.
You should go check it out. The old man from Yuanling said: After all, your Ba Suo lineage is connected to the sky, and anything that can involve you is not a trivial matter. The cult captures people to absorb their blood, energy and souls, they are not good people, and what they want to do will not be a good thing. We don't want to take action for the so-called justice, but the cult has reached into the four provinces, so I must take care of it!
When the old man from Yuanling spoke, his tone was firm and resolute. It was obvious that he was determined to destroy the cult.
And I suddenly felt inexplicably worried about my mother. Because the image of her being attacked by countless people suddenly appeared in my mind. That was my mother, a woman, being attacked by countless people. She was the only one who understood everything, and she was the only one who had to bear it.
Perhaps, she really has unspeakable difficulties, or perhaps, her strength is just my imagination.
