Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 37: Tieyiguan
In a private room of a restaurant.
Song Yanbai flipped through the booklet introducing the mission and said with a sad face: "Brother Lu, there are monsters everywhere in Qianxue Mountain, and there are foundation-building monsters in Iron Clothes Temple. How should we act?"
Lu Tong didn't have time to speak.
Holding a bowl of crab noodles, I kept eating.
The east part of the city is the territory of wealthy families. Although this restaurant looks ordinary, its things are very extraordinary.
In the west of the city, Lu Tong had never seen crab noodles.
The translucent water crab is about the size of a fingernail, and is wrapped in a ball of crab meat that is full of charm. One bite will fill your mouth with flavor.
Finished a bowl of noodles.
Song Yanbai immediately asked: "Brother Lu?"
"Brother Song, the mission has a total time limit of one month. I don't care if it takes only half a day. Let's eat first."
We haven’t been together for long, and Lu Tong has already noticed it.
Song Yanbai is not old and not very strong, but he has a high spirit.
As if holding a breath, wanting to prove himself.
But once you encounter trouble, you can't keep calm.
Since entering the tavern, let alone eating, I haven’t even drank.
"There is not a month left. It is now the third day of the twelfth lunar month, and the task must be completed before the end of the year. Otherwise..."
Song Yanbai lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly.
Lu Tong understood that it was not good to ask questions at this time, but he was really curious.
"What would happen otherwise?"
Song Yanbai took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise I will never have the face to face Qiaoer again!"
"Qiaoer?"
Song Yanbai reluctantly said: "My Taoist companion is the Talisman Master of Yiyi Sect Fuluyuan."
"Brother Song is so lucky."
Lu Tong said politely, but various thoughts flashed through his mind one after another.
What's going on?
Song Yanbai's Taoist companion Qiao'er is a talisman master, while Jing Xin is an alchemist. They are obviously not the same person.
What ability does this pretty boy have?
He actually had two female disciples from the Yiyi Sect surrounding him.
Lu Tong shook his head, getting rid of many distracting thoughts and a little bit of jealousy.
"Actually, I already have a solution."
"What can I do!"
Lu Tong took the booklet, opened it and said, "Didn't it say above that there are often monsters and half-demon missing around Tieyi Temple, and they are suspected of cultivating blood beetles."
"So what?"
"As long as you get close to the past, you will naturally be kidnapped. Once you enter the Tieyi Temple, it will be clear to you."
The fire in Song Yanbai's eyes immediately went out.
Under the great joy and sorrow, there was no expression on his face anymore, and he said numbly: "Yes, it's a pity that we have also become fertilizer for the blood beetles."
"It's not us, it's me!"
Song Yanbai's eyes widened and he could hardly believe the sound he heard.
"Brother Lu, you..."
Lu Tong ignored him, slammed the table hard, and shouted: "Waiter, another bowl of crab noodles, double portion of crab noodles!"
Don't go, it's dangerous.
Once the Yiyi Sect disciples get involved, all the bad things Ho Zi has done in the past may be exposed.
It's dangerous to go there.
Tie Yiguan secretly catches monsters and half-demon, and he doesn’t know what he is doing behind the scenes.
One step to the left is dangerous, one step to the right is a trap.
Lu Tong didn't have much fear in his heart, he just wanted to eat another bowl of crab noodles.
It is best to have a double portion of crab larvae.
……
The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and the cold wind is blowing.
Qianxue Mountain stretches for more than a hundred miles, and one of the tops of the mountain is called "Luanya Peak". The mountain is extremely dangerous.
The slender rocks are so abrupt that they stick out diagonally from the mountain peak, like a stone sword.
Somewhere on the mountainside.
A ragged figure flashed past, swung a short stone stick in his hand, and killed a sheep demon hiding under the stone.
The figure quickly ran over, tore open the goat's skin and meat, and put its mouth to it to drink the blood.
A head full of dirty messy hair hangs down, and through the gap between the hair strands, you can vaguely see that the figure is missing half of its right ear.
Five days ago, Lu Tong entered Qianxue Mountain alone.
Except for a piece of firewood and a pair of tattered clothes, he didn't bring anything with him.
Even the iron palms under his feet were removed.
For five days, exposed to the wind and sun, wearing hair and drinking blood, they looked no different from the ordinary monsters in Qianxue Mountain.
After Lu Tong drank his fill, he found a place with leeward wind.
Pull out a handful of dry thorns from the crevices of the rocks and light them with fire fruits.
Then he dragged the sheep demon, tore off the skin, pulled out the bones, and roasted the whole leg of lamb over the flames.
After losing his storage sleeve, he realized how happy it was to have knives, pots, and bowls and chopsticks.
Suffered a night of severe cold.
After dawn, Lu Tong put on a sheepskin, carried two lamb legs, and continued to approach the mountain peak where Tieyi Temple is located.
The weather suddenly changed just after morning, and thick black clouds hung on the top of the mountain.
Lu Tong felt something was wrong.
In such cold weather, once it starts to snow.
If the monster from Tieyi Temple doesn't come out, he will freeze to death.
After walking for a long time, we climbed up a small hill.
Scattered snowflakes began to fall.
Lu Tong found a nearby place that was sheltered from the snow and wind, and prepared to light a fire to keep warm.
"Ang!"
A sharp eagle cry echoed through the mountains.
The sound passed through the flesh and penetrated to the bottom of his heart. Lu Tong couldn't help but feel his heart tightening.
The next moment, two hooks penetrated the shoulders.
Lu Tong resisted the urge to fight back subconsciously, looked up and shouted: "Spare my life! Spare your life!"
After shouting a few words, he was pulled off the ground.
On the other side of Luanya Peak, a huge ravine goes from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
The ravine is full of thorns.
An iron temple is located in a ravine, surrounded by thorns.
A huge harpy landed on the stone slab outside the view and released its talons.
Lu Tong fell to the ground, and a large stream of blood flowed from the blood hole on his shoulder.
He looked up and immediately fell to the ground and begged for mercy: "Master Ying, have mercy on me! Master Ying, have mercy on me!"
The giant eagle's white eyelids rolled up, showing a very contemptuous look.
Then he lay down at the gate of Tieguan, stuck his huge head in and said, "Master, we caught another half-demon. It looks quite clever."
The little girl’s voice sounded high-pitched and thin.
It was completely dark inside the temple, and a sharp and hoarse man's voice came out: "Take him down, or throw him into the pit if you don't obey!"
"Yes, Master."
Lu Tong lay on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
The first life and death hurdle has been passed.
"Follow me."
The hawk demon, which is as tall as a person, walked to the left side of the Taoist temple, squeezed through the thorns and got in.
Lu Tong carefully pushed aside the thorns and followed in.
I walked more than ten feet through the narrow gap, turned two corners, and saw a bright fire in front of my eyes.
There is a furnace in the center of a large grotto.
Beside the furnace, a shirtless monk saw Lu Tong~IndoMTL.com~ and laughed and said: "This is good! It looks strong, one can hold up three!"
"Go down!"
The hawk demon uttered two words coldly, turned around and left.
Lu Tong walked into the grotto obediently.
The shirtless monk's eyes shone, he circled around Lu Tong a few times, and said: "What a good boy! It would be a pity not to go mining!"
He took out an iron pickaxe and a backpack from the furnace, and took an oil lamp and threw it to Lu Tong.
He picked up a green ore with scattered white spots from the side of the furnace and said, "Remember, dig a hundred kilograms a day! If you don't dig enough, you are not allowed to come up!"
After speaking, he pointed to a cave next to the grotto and said: "Go, go down and work!"
Lu Tong complained in his heart.
He thought a lot about it, but never expected that he would become a slave in the mines.
A dignified foundation-building monster actually caught a half-demon stealing mines!
He put the basket on his back, picked up the pickaxe and the oil lamp, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
"Stop!"
The shirtless monk snatched Lu Tong's leaky fruit wrapped around his waist.
"Leaking fire fruit? Tell me where this thing comes from?"
Lu Tong immediately stopped and said with a cringe on his face: "Uncle, I picked it up at the bottom of the mountain!"
"Where can I find it?"
"Just outside the mountain, so far away, someone was fighting and the carriage overturned. I picked one up."
The shirtless monk stared wide-eyed and asked: "Where outside the mountain?"
"Just, just...I don't know, Grandma Eagle caught me from the sky, I don't know where this is."
The shirtless monk stood there for a while, waved his hands and said: "Go away! Go down and dig!"
Lu Tong immediately got into the cave.
It was completely dark inside the cave, and the fear on Lu Tong's face disappeared instantly.
It turned into a bitter face.
