Chapter Fifty-Seven: Stealing Eggs
Jinbi tossed the coin, but Yueyang didn't catch it.
Fell on the ground, the side of the great summer founding emperor 'Huangdi' faces upwards, this is the front.
"It's only fair if we win two out of three rounds!" Yuyang's classmate saw that it wasn't a bad idea, but he felt a bit unhappy in his heart. Obviously, they could have gone to kill the nine-headed monster on one side while waiting for Yue Bing on the other. Otherwise, by the time she arrived, the nine-headed monster might not be able to be killed.
Although she is her own sister, it's okay to let her know some things, but if she can keep a secret, it's better to let her not know anything! Although Yueling is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's important and speaks carelessly everywhere, she's too young, with a pure heart and soul. If the enemy uses deceit, it would be easy for her to fall into their trap... Moreover, there are many powerful people in this Dragon Continent, with all sorts of talents, if there is someone who can see through other people's thoughts, Yueling doesn't have this disguise talent, nor is she good at lying. If someone were to discover from her that she is the newly promoted First Heaven strong person, then Meiwu and her family would be in danger!
The coin was flipped again and it's still heads.
"Dizzy, this doesn't count, one last time, make a real decision!" Yuyang classmate decided to throw out a counteroffer.
The third time it was tossed high, after falling to the ground, it miraculously sank into the mud and stood upright. The probability of this happening left Yuyang stunned, but he quickly flipped the coin over and picked it up: "So heaven's will is for me to go chop the nine-headed monster while waiting! Alright, I'll follow heaven's will then!"
On one side, Hui Tai Lang stared at his master with a dazed expression, suddenly he felt that he had learned many things from his master!
Yue Yang kicked it with one foot: "If you're afraid of death, stay and wait. When the time comes, watch me roast the nine-headed monster. There's no place for you!"
The grey wolf hastily showed its loyalty and fawned on him by wagging its tail.
Although he didn't stay to wait for Yue Bing, the time-traveling man still moved a large stone over and placed it in front of the crystal pillar. He wrote "Yue Bing, wait for me to come back" in bold letters on it. Although this brother wasn't very qualified, at least he hadn't forgotten his sister completely, but his curiosity was too heavy, and he had to go see the Nine-Headed Serpent.
Of course, Yueyang is going to challenge Jiu Tou Guai now. The main force has only Xiao Wenli, which is still a bit less.
The Barbarian's Shadow can't be summoned for the time being, and the Giant's Shadow will need several more days of accumulation. The Gray Wolf is indeed Bronze 4, but even the weakest adult Nine-Headed Beast is Bronze 7, the gap isn't small at all.
To say nothing of the fact that the nine-headed monster is not afraid of being surrounded... Unlike the three-headed Chimera of the White Sheep Palace, how are we going to fight this battle against the nine-headed monster today?
"Do you think I'm out of options just because of this?" For the shameless transmigrator, going to the Blood Water Demon Swamp to fight the Nine-Headed Monster was like going to a neighboring school to pick a fight during school days. It's their turf, and no matter how powerful you are, they'll easily use their numbers to take you down. Yang Yue wouldn't do something so stupid. He didn't hard fight, but that doesn't mean he didn't have any tricks up his sleeve. The Five Elements Golden Mouse, which seemed completely useless in other people's eyes, was actually five cheating devices in Yang Yue's hands!
The bloody waters of the demon swamp stretched out before me, a sea of crimson as far as the eye could see.
A faintly pungent smell wafted through the air.
It wasn't a bloody smell, Yueyang estimated that this was a strange body odor emitted from Jiu Tou Guai's body.
The nine-headed monster had been living in this bloody swamp for an unknown period of time, and the entire vast expanse of crimson marsh was filled with their stench. There were hardly any magical insects here, and wild beasts had long since disappeared; all that could be seen were large and small swamp snakes slithering in and out of the rotting mud.
"Alright, get a good sense of the lair of the nine-headed monster for me. If they're not home, then steal their eggs back for me!"
Yueyang had read a comic book when he was young, it was about two little mice stealing eggs. One mouse held the egg and the other pulled its tail, they stole the egg smoothly. This left a deep impression on him. Now there are five treasure-hunting mice, of course, he will use them. In the swamp, the water attribute and earth attribute mice can move freely, Yueyang decided to send them out to steal back the nine-headed monster's egg.
The Water-type Sandshrew moves fastest in marshes, advancing at a speed similar to that of swimming fish.
The action of the earth attribute will be slightly slower, but it's not much different either.
Yueyang controls them with his mind, feeling as if he's playing with remote control toys. It's truly a masterpiece of the genius Yue Gong. These five-line golden mice are awesome! Convenient operation, complete functions, waterproof and fireproof, maintenance-free, no need to recharge, three guarantees for quality...
It's really a must-have artifact for home travel and adventure treasure hunting!
After more than an hour of exploration, the two little golden mice had explored two-thirds of the Bloodwater Swamp and discovered six nine-headed monsters. Two were half-grown juveniles with only three heads each; two were nearly adult and already had six heads. The remaining two, a male and female, were hibernating in their massive nest, completely unresponsive to the approach of the golden mice. The golden mice were first-level puppet mice, without combat power or vitality. Even if the nine-headed monsters saw them, they would only think they were moving stones... If the nine-headed monsters had human-like intelligence, they might have wondered how these two 'stone lumps' could move?
But the nine-headed monster hadn't evolved such a clever brain yet, and the movements of the gold-seeking mouse were extremely light and stealthy, not drawing attention to itself.
In the nest, there were indeed eggs.
However, the nine-headed monster's eggs were unusually large, and the little golden mouse couldn't steal them back no matter what.
"Don't think I'm helpless, there's something in this world called the internet!" Yuyang classmate used the dense and long black reeds on the edge of the swamp to weave a simple net bag. This broken net may not look good, but it can hold a large stone, it's sturdy enough.
The grey wolf looked at this broken web named 'Zhong Lian Tong' by Yue Yang and felt a little excited, thinking it was time for itself to show off its skills.
Yueyang kicked it with one foot, this 'Zhonglian Tong' is not for catching fish, but for stealing eggs. The nine-headed monster's egg, what if it's a golden grade? Once hatched, it would be a golden cub, and at an auction, it could sell for thousands of gold coins, how much money is that? Yueyang, who was obsessed with wealth, felt that with this 'Zhonglian Tong', he wouldn't have to worry about not having enough money.
Of course, with just two treasure-hunting mice and a tattered 'China Unicom' net bag, it's impossible to steal the eggs from the nine-headed monster's nest.
The two nine-headed birds must be lured away from their nest.
At this time, the wolf bait came in handy.
The grey wolf is usually very capable on land, but when it comes to luring the nine-headed monster into the muddy waters, it gets a bit weak in the knees!
"Useless guy, think about the good side, if we succeed in stealing the Nine-Headed Beast's egg, then there will be Golden Cubs, glittering gold coins and many meat bones, got it? The Nine-Headed Beast is nothing, later I'll get rid of them all, and make a barbecue out of them! Stop shivering, set off immediately, or else I'll roast your wolf legs!" Yuyang kicked Hu Tai Lang into the mud with one foot.
Hui Tai Lang had only swum a hundred meters in the Blood Water Demon Marsh when it startled those two nine-headed monsters that were almost fully grown, frightening it into hastily swimming back to shore and fleeing for its life.
Fortunately, the nine-headed monster seemed to have no interest in wolf meat and did not chase after it.
Yueyang was furious and warned the gray wolf that if it dared to swim back, it would be tied up and dried... The gray wolf was so scared that it rolled and crawled into the mud, barking non-stop. The howling sound echoed throughout the entire Blood Water Demon Swamp, startling all the nine-headed monsters. The gray wolf didn't dare to swim back and fled desperately in the other direction, fortunately, some places had relatively hard mud, allowing it to run with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Otherwise, it would have been caught up by the nine-headed monster and swallowed alive in one mouthful.
In the treasure mouse's detection, the nine-headed monster family did not all go out to chase, and one of the largest female nine-headed monsters guarded the nest without leaving.
Yueyang didn't want to let little Wenli, this little loli, get stuck in the mud.
He gritted his teeth, took off his clothes and jumped into the mud pit himself.
If it were before crossing, one hundred of him would not be enough to fill the gap between the teeth of the nine-headed monster. However, now that he has become a pre-heavenly strong practitioner and learned the mysterious three styles, although he can't achieve the Lingbo Micro Step, he can't walk on the water surface, but stepping on some muddy ground, walking is still quite smooth, with a bit of an 'iron leg mud' feeling. It's just that the original sword spirit sister's wonderful sword dance technique, now performed by him, looks a bit too awkward!
His appearance enraged the female nine-headed monster guarding the nest, and its nine necks emerged from the rotting mud at the bottom of the water, dancing wildly, spitting out several mouths of black acidic liquid at Yueyang who was flying rapidly through the mud...
Those black acid-like cannonballs shot over, making classmate Yueyang so flustered that he was scared and quickly ran back.
Just as Yueyang ran far away, the female nine-headed monster returned to guard its nest and did not want to pursue it relentlessly. It cursed the male in a low voice, then ran after him, shouting loudly, drawing attention, provoking to the end!
In order to steal eggs, Yueyang and Hui Tailang, one master and one servant, repeatedly lure the nine-headed monster group.
Under the bloody waters of Moze, two golden mice were using a broken net called "Zhong Lian Tong" to drag a huge egg, slowly and steadily swimming back and forth. At their speed, it's estimated that they would be able to return to shore in about two hours.
"My kidneys are gone! It's too hard to earn some small money!" Yueyang classmate ran back and forth in the muddy field, almost dying of exhaustion.
However, now he is reluctant to give up the egg that he almost got his hands on and persists with gritted teeth.
That's the egg of the nine-headed monster!
