big dream master

However, this creature is timid and cautious by nature, and it is dormant underground all year round, so it is difficult for ordinary monks to find it.

Only during the rainy season every year, the sky is covered by dark clouds for a long time, the moonlight cannot shine on the ground, and the golden toad cannot absorb the moon soul, so during this time, it will fall into a dormant period.

When the rainy season is over, there will be a thunderstorm. At that time, the golden toad will wake up again, and boldly leave the hiding place, exposed to the moonlight to replenish the previously consumed moon soul.

And this time is the best time to catch it. If you miss it, you have to wait at least another year.

This is also an important reason why Shen Luo decided to look for this thing first.

After looking at it for a while, Shen Luo put the talisman paper on the table into his sleeve, blew out the oil lamp on the table, returned to the bed and sat cross-legged to meditate, and continued to practice. Although his practice speed is not fast now, he can't stop.

……

In the early morning of the second day, Shen Luo pushed open the window, glanced at the cloud-covered sky, frowned slightly for a moment, then suddenly supported the table next to the window with one hand, flipped his body deftly, and jumped out of the window, facing the outside Fly down.

His window was close to the cliffs of the Tiankeng, and he didn't even have a place to stay, and his body fell directly into the Tiankeng.

It wasn't until he fell more than ten feet that he clasped a raised rock with one hand and hung himself on the cliff.

Shen Luo turned around and saw a row of towering ancient trees more than ten feet away from him.

Immediately, he released his grip on the stone wall, kicked off the cliff with both legs, and turned over in a semicircle in mid-air, before falling silently to the top of an ancient tree not far away.

After approaching, he stretched out his arms and grabbed the top of an ancient tree, buffered the force of the fall a little, then deftly slid towards the lower branch, and after a few repetitions, he landed on the ground smoothly.

After landing, he didn't rush to move, but took out a mountain crossing talisman from his sleeve, shook it around, and put it back into his arms after seeing that there was nothing unusual on it.

The tiankeng in the early morning is quite quiet, except for the buzzing of insects, there is only the sound of wind passing through the forest.

Shen Luo remembered that the place where the golden toad was caught was mentioned in the travel note, which was beside a crescent-shaped lake in the center of the tiankeng, so he went straight to the center through the dense forest without stopping.

Walking in the dense forest, Shen Luo found that the temperature at the bottom of the tiankeng was much lower than outside, and there was still a thin layer of hoarfrost on the branches and leaves of plants and trees beside the road.

He took off a leaf and rubbed it lightly, and the frost on it melted immediately.

Shen Luo frowned slightly, dropped the leaves in his hands, wrapped his hands in his sleeves, and walked forward slowly.

He had a relaxed attitude, looking left and right along the way, it seemed that he really came to visit the mountains and rivers.

Not long after, he came to the center of the tiankeng, and saw the crescent-shaped lake from a distance.

The water quality of the lake is clear and the color is blue, reflecting the clouds in the sky.

And beside the lake, there was a familiar figure, bending over to scoop up a handful of water from the lake, bringing it to his mouth and taking a sip.

"Brother Ao..." Shen Luo whispered, and quickly walked towards the man.

"Brother Shen, good morning." Standing by the lake, Ao Hong didn't show any surprise, he straightened up and greeted Shen Luo with a smile.

It's just that when he looked at Shen Luo, his eyes seemed to pass him in a trance, looking at the dense forest farther behind.

Shen Luo noticed something, but still pretended not to notice anything.

In fact, when he took off the leaf earlier, he had already noticed that someone was following him secretly.

He exchanged some polite words with Ao Hong, and they walked side by side, chatting while walking towards the other side of the tiankeng.

The cliff wall on the other side of the tiankeng is convex and concave, and looks like a naturally formed eaves from a distance, covered with slippery green moss.

Shen Luo looked from a distance, and saw three ropes hanging down from the cliff, and three figures were hanging on them, each with a huge bamboo basket tied around their waists, hanging from the protruding cliff. Under the flying rock.

The three of them were the swallow pickers that Shen Luo met in the inn lobby yesterday, except for the masked woman.

The three of them fell together on the cliff, adjusted their postures and positions up and down, and skillfully peeled off the bright white bird's nests shaped like bowls from the cliff.

Shen Luo and the two stopped at the foot of the cliff, looking up at the movements of the three of them.

The old man with a short beard among the three seemed to have a feeling. He looked down at the two people at the bottom of the cliff, and said hello with a smile: "The two young masters are so elegant. Come here early in the morning to enjoy the scenery."

"Seeing how skillfully picking bird's nests is so enjoyable." Shen Luo laughed.

After all, they were not really familiar with each other, after exchanging a few pleasantries, Shen Luo and the two said goodbye and left.

After returning to the inn from the stone ladder on the cliff, Ao Hong went back to his room first, while Shen Luo had breakfast in the lobby before going back.

After returning to the house, Shen Luo sat down in front of the table, and was about to close the window and start meditating, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a two-finger-wide note on the table.

With his eyes fixed slightly, he glanced at the note, and there were eight large characters written on it: "Don't be greedy for the golden toad, you may hurt your life."

Shen Luo frowned, showing hesitation.

This sentence looked like a reminder, but also a threat. For a moment, he couldn't figure out who left it.

"Could it be Ao Hong? Seeing that I also went to the Tiankeng to search today, I want to stop it but it's inconvenient to explain it, so I left a letter to warn me?" Shen Luo was puzzled, shaking his head and pondering.

He didn't touch it with his hands, but just swept it casually, and the note flew into the air, and was crushed by a stream of water.

"Could it be that masked woman? She should have been the one who followed me secretly in the forest, but why did she leave me a letter?" Shen Luo rubbed his chin and thought again.

After a while, he couldn't think of a reason, so he could only give up.

In short, no matter who it is, no matter if it is persuasion with good intentions or malicious warning, it is impossible for him to give up.

Chapter 0371 Capture the Dragon

According to the shopkeeper Chen of this inn, the climate here in Tiankeng is weird, as long as the rainy season is over, there will definitely be a thunderstorm at night within three to five days, which can be regarded as a unique landscape here.

Therefore, no matter whether it is Shen Luo, Ao Hong, or those swallow pickers, they are all waiting for this thunderstorm.

But this year, for some unknown reason, a thick layer of cloudy clouds had been accumulating over Dali Mountain for several days. It seemed that it was almost the beginning of May, but the thunderstorm that everyone was looking forward to never came down.

Everyone was anxiously waiting, especially Shen Luo, who was already short on time, so he couldn't spend it here all the time.

That night, Shen Luo was sitting alone in the room, thinking about whether to use one or two Thunder Falling Talismans to see if he could shake the blue-eyed golden toad out, when suddenly he heard a dull "boom" sound from outside .

Shen Luo only felt that the whole room shook violently with this roar.

He rushed to the window, pushed the window open, looked outside, and saw faint traces of light flickering in the clouds above the tiankeng, as if a bigger thunderstorm was still brewing.

"Is it finally coming?" Shen Luo's eyes flickered slightly, and his heart was a little excited.

But at this moment, a trace of light suddenly flashed in the high-altitude clouds, and Shen Luo immediately caught a glimpse of a huge figure hovering in the cloud, but it disappeared into the cloud in a flash, making it impossible to see clearly.

He frowned slightly, immediately turned over and left the room, and fell towards the sinkhole.

With the sound of thunder, the blue-eyed golden toad will wake up, and will definitely show up beside the crescent lake to absorb the moon soul, Shen Luo must rush there as soon as possible.

However, just as he landed on the ground, he suddenly heard a roar of the vast dragon, stopped in his steps, and looked up at the sky again.

I saw a hundred-foot-long golden dragon emerging from the cloudy clouds in the sky, its body undulating, spinning and galloping in the clouds, stirring the sea of ​​clouds violently.

Seeing this situation, Shen Luo immediately understood that the thunder just now was probably not caused by nature, but Ao Hong waited for the thunderstorm so hard that he could only use some kind of magical power of his own to arouse the thunder.

"Boom"

The roaring and violently churning dark clouds in the high sky began to be torn apart under the influence of Ao Hong's huge body, and a huge hollow like a funnel began to emerge in the middle.

As soon as the void appeared, the long-lost moonlight finally shone through here.

Shen Luo looked from a distance, and saw that a window seemed to be opened in the sky, and a white skylight was cast from it, falling straight to the center of the tiankeng.

I don't know if it's the reflection of the crescent lake, a snow-bright light reflected from the center of the tiankeng, lighting up the entire dense forest in front of it.

Shen Luo didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately took out two Shenxing Armored Horse Talismans, and stuck them on his legs.

I saw the talisman paper burning with a "wow", but the ashes flying out of it did not disperse, but were wrapped by an invisible force, entwined around the two lower legs of the sinking.

In an instant, Shen Luo only felt his legs lighten up for a while, and he took a slight step forward, and he was already several feet away.

With his eyes fixed, his legs ran wildly up, and his figure drew a blurred shadow in the forest, and he jumped out suddenly.

However, after ten breaths, Shen Luo kicked his feet on the ground violently, and his body was still under the influence of inertia, and rushed out ten feet suddenly, and finally stopped abruptly by the Crescent Lake.

However, the moment he stopped, he saw a golden toad the size of a palm in the sky high above his head, dancing wildly with its four claws and struggling to soar upwards.

Above it, a fish basket woven by unknown vines hangs upside down in the air, and a golden vortex swirls around the mouth of the basket, and bursts of pulling force are emitted from it, enveloping the golden toad in it.

Shen Luo was anxious, and immediately waved his palm.

A blue water rope protruded from the center of the lake and shot straight up towards the blue-eyed golden toad, trying to pull it back.

However, just as the water rope approached the golden toad, a golden halo suddenly swept down from the sky.

There was only a soft "poof", and the water rope broke directly.

Immediately afterwards, a figure descended from the sky and landed next to the hanging fish basket. When he picked it up with both hands, the fish basket fell into his hands, and the blue-eyed golden toad was also taken into it.

"Brother Shen, I'm sorry, this golden toad is very important to me, so I accept it." Ao Hong said to Shen Luo with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Shen Luo had already caught the flying talisman in his sleeve, and was about to catch up.

This blue-eyed golden toad is equally important to him, whether he can get it depends on his wealth and life, although this Ao Hong's cultivation level is obviously much higher than his own, it is impossible for him to just give it up.

It's a pity that Ao Hong didn't give him a chance to fight for it. He hung the golden fish basket on his waist, stretched his body, and turned into a golden dragon again soaring into the sky and flying towards the distance.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Suddenly there was a "crash" in the sky, and a huge black curtain flew from nowhere, covering the sky above the tiankeng, directly blocking Ao Hong's way.

At the same time, on the mountain wall on the other side of the tiankeng, white light suddenly exploded, and huge runes emerged out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, the entire Tiankeng land began to shake violently.

Shen Luo lowered his head to look, and saw huge array patterns appearing under his feet, his heart tightened suddenly, he hurriedly urged the armored horse talisman with all his strength, turned around and ran towards the distance.

While running, he only felt the coldness rising from the ground under his feet. When he looked down, he realized that the ground was freezing rapidly. As long as he slowed down a little, he would be frozen by ice and snow.

Shen Luo ran nearly a hundred feet in one breath, and the aggressive Bingshuang finally stopped.

He stopped, turned his head and looked towards the center of the tiankeng, and saw that the black curtain was still covering the sky, and it was undulating. It seemed that Ao Hong was constantly crashing under it, and there were bursts of dragon chant sounds.

At this time, another ray of light flew up high in the sky, and the short-bearded old man named Tong Guan appeared, and laughed loudly:

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. Not only did I catch the blue-eyed golden toad this time, but I also captured a real dragon alive. Tsk tsk, the real dragon is not like a dragon, anaconda, or python, haha..."

After all, he pressed down with one hand, and the black curtain flashed with a black light, and it began to shrink rapidly.

Only then did Shen Luo see clearly that there was a black wooden pole on the other side of the black curtain, which was a big black flag.

When the flag shrunk to Zhang Xulai's height, Tong Guan suddenly pinched the formula with one hand, and the surface of the flag made a "huhu" sound, and it rolled up by itself, directly wrapping Ao Hong in it.

He grabbed the flagpole, threw it over his shoulder, and fell towards the ground.

On the ground, there were already three figures waiting, they were Yu Xin and Feng Shan Feng Shui brothers.

Chapter 0372

"Congratulations to Mr. Tong, you killed two birds with one stone. Not only did you catch the blue-eyed golden toad, but you also got a real dragon. This time it can be regarded as a great achievement. The Holy Master should appoint you as the envoy of the main altar." With a smile on Shan's face, he complimented him.

The old man with short beard also had a smile on his face when he heard the words, which was very helpful.

It's just that his eyes swept around the three people, his brows suddenly raised, and he asked in a cold voice: "What about the kid?"

"Old Tong, that kid used the Armored Horse Talisman and ran too fast. The ice array couldn't trap him, so he slipped away." Feng Shui clasped his fists with both hands, bowed his head and said.

"It's just a mere cultivator at the early stage of Bigu, and he can't make any waves." Feng Shan said indifferently.

"Idiot, if we just caught the golden toad, it would be nothing if we ran away with a Bigu cultivator, but right now we have caught a real dragon, if any news leaks out, do you think the Dragon Palace will let us go?" At that moment, Yu Xin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up and scolded.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tong, I'll go and catch that kid right away." Feng Shan understood after hearing the words, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Yu Xin, you go after him together." Tong Guan said, frowning.

"Yes."

The masked woman responded, turned around with Feng Shan, and chased after Shen Luo in the direction where Shen Luo was fleeing.

"Then what about those people in the inn?" Feng Shui asked with his eyes darkened.

"Kill them all, not a single one can be left alive." Tong Guan didn't hesitate at all, and directly wiped his neck across his neck.

Feng Shui nodded, turned and left.

As Shen Luo ran quickly in the forest, he became more and more puzzled.

According to the normal course of history, even if this blue-eyed golden toad is discovered this time, it shouldn't be taken away, otherwise it would not be the turn of that Taoist Yunyou.

And the only factor to change this process can only be your own participation.

But judging from the previous situation, he did not have time to directly intervene in the arrest of Jin Chan.

"Maybe this means that the Blue-eyed Golden Toad won't be captured by them this time?" A thought came to Shen Luo's mind, he stopped abruptly, and turned around to look deep into the dense forest.

He rubbed his hands together, a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
