Chapter 206: The battle between auspicious beasts, Queque will never admit defeat!
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. The female Fiery Eagle looked at Lu Zhan. She didn’t think Lu Zhan was an honest man…
Why did Lu Zhan take her casual polite remark seriously?
The male flaming eagle tried to smooth things over and asked, "What can I do for you?"
"I heard that the Fiery Eagle tribe is so large that it can cover most of the island. I am currently looking for someone. Can I ask the Fiery Eagle tribe to help find him? Of course, I won't let your help be in vain. If you can find this person, I am willing to give you ten top-grade fire spiritual herbs." The person Lu Zhan wanted to find was naturally the young marquis.
The Twelve Earth Alliance is an organization with crazy brains and is already a public enemy of the imperial court. He can just let the Demon Suppression Bureau deal with it. There is no need for him to fight to the death with the other party alone.
But it’s different for the young marquis. Once he safely leaves the fairy island, it will not be easy to take action again.
Originally, Lu Zhan wanted to learn the Confucian art of calling the roll from Lao Shi in order to track down the young marquis, but he found that Shi Qingquan had become autistic.
In layman's terms, perhaps it was because the last time he learned how to speak and act, it hit Lao Shi hard, and the old man's consciousness fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Zhan did not disturb him. After all, although the Confucian roll call technique could be used for tracking, it was not so powerful that it could be blocked by magic weapons.
It would be better to ask the Fire Eagle tribe for help. The Fire Eagles are all local eagles and they must be well-informed.
The male Fiery Eagle hesitated for a moment and said, "We should be grateful that you let the auspicious beast teach our children. However, my husband and I do not have much say in the tribe. If we want the tribe to help us, we really need to offer enough chips. Although the Fiery Eagle is a fire element, not all fire element spiritual herbs are needed. If you can offer ten Fiery Ganoderma, perhaps things will be easier to handle."
The Fire Eagle tribe is unwilling to get involved in human affairs unless they are offered something that excites them.
Although the fairy island is vast and rich in resources, the more precious elixirs are, the harder they are to obtain, and there are often ferocious beasts guarding them.
Although the Fire Eagle tribe is large, they have no leader and everyone works in their own camp.
Normally, the Fire Eagle tribe will not form groups to look for elixirs, because this will lead to problems with uneven distribution, thus causing tribal conflicts. Even if they go to look for elixirs, they will go in groups of two or three, never in large groups. This makes it impossible to concentrate their fighting power, making it difficult to find elixirs.
"But the Fiery Ganoderma prefers dry environments and mostly grows in deserts. The island environment is humid and there are rarely any Fiery Ganoderma." Ling Jiaoyue felt that the Fiery Eagle was making excuses, so he deliberately made things difficult for them.
"Yes." The male Fiery Eagle said seriously, "It is said that deep in the island hundreds of miles away from here, there is an extremely evil red land, in which Fiery Ganoderma grows, but it is very dangerous. Our people have explored it many times, but they never came back. If you think you are sure, you can go there and take a look. Of course, I don't recommend it unless the person you are looking for is really worth the price."
This was a pertinent suggestion. Lu Zhan thought for a moment and said, "If it exists, we will try our best to find it. But if it doesn't exist, we can only trade it with spiritual herbs."
Whether the young marquis is worth the price is another matter, but they came to the fairy island to explore and hone themselves. Even if it is not for the young marquis, they will continue to explore deeper.
The female Fiery Eagle said, "In that case, the deal is done. I hope you can find the Fiery Ganoderma. It's not that my husband and I are greedy, but the Fiery Ganoderma is very beneficial to our tribe. If we use this trade, the tribe will work harder."
"I understand." Lu Zhan naturally understood this. If he wanted people to work hard, he had to feed them.
The male Fiery Eagle said, "Then leave a portrait of the person you are looking for and a wisp of your own aura. When we find that person, we will let you know through the aura you left behind."
"Portraits are easy." Lu Zhan turned and looked at Fairy Ling: "You can draw, right? Show us your skills!"
Ling Jiaoyue's eyelids jumped. Seeing Lu Zhan's confident look, she thought that Lu Zhan himself was an excellent painter, but she didn't expect that he was planning to let her do it.
……
Fairy Ling showed off her skills to everyone, allowing them to see what it means to be a disciple of a great immortal sect, and she painted the portraits so vividly.
It’s just that the painter himself was extremely dissatisfied with the young marquis, so the young marquis in the portrait had hideous features and obscene eyes.
"It doesn't look like the real thing..." Lu Zhan picked it up and took a look. The painting was indeed well done. It didn't look like the sanctimonious young marquis, but more like an old rogue.
Ling Jiaoyue said calmly: "He is like this in front of me."
"This bastard is really lecherous." Lu Zhan looked down on him and said, "But we should still make some changes, otherwise it will be difficult for Brother Fiery Eagle to do his job."
The Fiery Eagles also agreed and felt that it was necessary to make some changes.
The people in the portrait are so ugly, they look just like the white apes in the valley.
Based on Lu Zhan's description, Fairy Ling drew another picture. Although it was still full of prejudice and discrimination, at least it could be seen that it was the dog-like appearance of the young marquis.
"It's right this time." Lu Zhan took a closer look and expressed his appreciation: "No wonder the talisman is so well drawn, and the painting skills are so strong. Big brother and sister-in-law, I'll trouble you now."
The other day they were fellow Taoists, and today they are elder brother and sister-in-law. Talking is a profound art. It can bring people closer together when necessary, but it can also confuse people's minds.
For example, when meeting the young marquis, calling him son would definitely make him blush instantly and become furious.
The Fiery Eagle couple observed it and said, "Now I can see it clearly, but please draw a few more."
Fairy Ling was forced to show off her skills dozens of times and reluctantly painted dozens of portraits.
"Leave this matter to us. I hope you have a safe journey." The male Fire Eagle said, patting his chest.
Lu Zhan bowed and said, "Thank you. We'll take our leave now."
Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue took their respective little goblins away. The two Fire Eagle cubs were reluctant to leave and insisted on going with Lu Zhan. They were beaten up by the Fire Eagle couple on the spot, and their crying sounds filled the entire valley.
……
In the forest outside the valley, Lu Zhan did not set out immediately, but sat beside a big rock and wrote a letter to his colleagues.
According to his original idea, Lu Zhan wanted to meet up with his colleagues and exchange information with each other.
But think about it, now the Twelve Land Alliance and the young marquis are targeting him, if he reunites with his colleagues at this time, he will also implicate his colleagues.
What's more, Fairy Ling was traveling with him. If Chun Ge saw them, rumors would definitely spread everywhere.
After much thought, Lu Zhan decided to send a message to his colleagues to report his safety, omitting the matter of the young marquis and simply saying that he was being targeted by others, so as to avoid implicating his teammates and would not be joining them for the time being.
After writing the letter, Lu Zhan used the Taoist telepathy technique to send the letter, and then he saw the little Pegasus biting the hem of Ling Jiaoyue's skirt.
Lu Zhan immediately taught her a lesson: "Why are you so young and not learning your lesson? Why are you biting the hem of a girl's skirt? Luckily she's a little mare, otherwise she'd be a pervert when she grows up."
"Hmm..." The little Pegasus couldn't speak. He tried hard to stare at Lu Zhan, protesting to him with his eyes.
Fairy Ling's beautiful eyes were filled with anger as she glared at him: "She is inviting me to ride her!"
The little Pegasus is a auspicious beast with a strong will. Since it has recognized Ling Jiaoyue as its master, it is willing to be her mount.
But Ling Jiaoyue was afraid of tiring her out and refused to ride her, which made the little Pegasus unhappy. It was clear that she looked down on their Pegasus clan. Although she was small in size, she was still very fast while carrying someone. Although she could not fly high at present, she could jump at low altitude with ease.
Lu Zhan was extremely envious, and looked at Que Que and complained: "Look at him, and then look at you. He took the initiative to invite me to ride, but you are not aware of it at all."
"Hmph! What's so good about it? You're so small, can you even walk?" Queque and the little Pegasus don't get along well. There seems to be a chain of contempt between the two of them. The arrogant little Pegasus looks down on the greedy Queque.
The sparrow refused to admit defeat, and immediately transformed into a large sparrow. It patted its back with its wings and said menacingly, "Xiao Lu, come up and ride on me!"
This was the first time Lu Zhan saw Queque being so proactive. It turned out that there was no progress without competition. He smiled triumphantly and sat on Queque's back.
"Hmm..." The little Pegasus suddenly let out a tender laugh, and she poked around with her two hooves to express her excitement, and gestured with her hands and feet.
As she gestured, Lu Zhan clearly felt the temperature around Queque getting lower, and he couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean, little Pegasus?"
"..." Ling Jiaoyue was a little embarrassed. She pretended to be calm and said calmly: "It's nothing. It's just that the little Pegasus thinks that Queque has become so fat. If she doesn't use the true Qi, can she walk..."
"How dare you, little Pegasus, say that to me!" Queque instantly got furious and started performing without saying a word. Even if she didn't rely on her true Qi to fly, she could still carry Lu Zhan and move briskly on land.
Queque fluttered his wings and walked confidently through the forest, saying as he walked: "Look! Isn't this great king majestic?!"
Ling Jiaoyue: "..."
Fairy Ling suddenly felt a little confused. She and Lu Zhan had been getting along very well these past few days, but she didn't expect that her mount didn't get along well with Lu Zhan's mount.
They actually got into a fight over something like this.
"Alright, alright, you're the best, stop!" Lu Zhan ordered the car to stop. Queque was too fat, and when he didn't rely on his true Qi to walk, his speed was no different from that of an eighty-year-old man, and he felt quite uncomfortable with the bumps.
Que Que refused to give in, staring at the little Pegasus in front of her and said, "Who made this girl look down on me? I am afraid of myself when I run, but she said I run too slowly!"
After saying that, Queque flapped its wings twice, kicked its two little feet, and continued to run forward with its butt twisted.
Lu Zhan was so shaken that he stopped her pace and taught her a lesson: "Why are you fighting with a horse? She can't even talk!"
"Yes..." The little fairy was immediately excited. She threw Lu Zhan out and neatly transformed into a little girl. She proudly made faces at the little Pegasus: "Not only can I talk, I can also transform into a human. I can even take human form and let little Lu ride on me for fun. Little Pegasus, can you do that?"
The little Pegasus was immediately furious.
Lu Zhan's mouth twitched fiercely: "That's not something you can say!"
There is nothing wrong with riding a bird, but if he goes out riding a loli, he will be on the headlines of Da Zhou tomorrow.
Fairy Ling was also quite helpless. Seeing the angry look of the little Pegasus, she soothed him softly, "Little Pegasus, you are an extremely intelligent auspicious beast. How can you be so fussy about Queque?"
"That's right." Que Que didn't understand what Fairy Ling meant at all, and said with a proud shake of her legs: "Can you compete with me? When I give an order, all the birds within a ten-mile radius must obey it. Can you do it?"
The little Pegasus instantly understood what Ling Jiaoyue meant. Queque was indeed stupid, and she shouldn't bother with a stupid bird.
In order to take care of the bird with low IQ, the little Pegasus even lowered his head and looked apologetic.
“Hehe…” Que Que was very proud to see the little Pegasus give in. She didn’t continue to nag and followed Lu Zhan obediently: “Let’s go, Xiao Lu!”
Lu Zhan shook his head helplessly. Queque was really a bird with low IQ. This reminded him of Jiang Jiang, who always suffered defeat in front of Ling Jiaoyue.
"Let's go." After the relationship between the two auspicious beasts became harmonious, Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue set out side by side, continuing to explore deeper into the island, tracking the young marquis's whereabouts while searching for the Fiery Ganoderma.
The area around the Fire Eagle's nest had already been explored, so Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue did not waste any time and left the forest in a quick tour.
Ling Jiaoyue used Taoist tracking techniques to try to track the location of the Twelve Earth Alliance and the young marquis, but the other party obviously also had Taoist masters, so Ling Jiaoyue's tracking did not work.
Compared to them, the Fire Eagle tribe is large and good at observation, making them better reconnaissance aircraft.
For the two of them, what they need to do now is to explore inside and look for the Fiery Ganoderma.
Fairy Ling has a cold body and does not have much need for Fiery Ganoderma, but she can exchange it for other supplies at the mountain gate.
No one would complain about having too much of natural treasures.
"It is said that the fire mushroom is like a fire, and it likes drought very much. It grows mostly in dry deserts, and the surrounding land is dry and cracked and no grass grows."
Fairy Ling sat on the back of the little Pegasus and asked softly, "You grew up on the fairy island. Have you ever encountered a place like this?"
Although the Fiery Eagle couple gave a rough location, they had not been there in person, so it was difficult to determine whether the location was accurate.
The little Pegasus came from the depths of the island. Although it is young, it has much more experience than the monsters on the periphery.
Now that they have left the familiar mountains and forests, the next direction is very important.
"Mmmmm..." The little Pegasus was a whimpering monster. She hummed twice and fell into deep thought.
Ling Jiaoyue thought about it, then took out a booklet and showed it to the little Pegasus. There was a picture of the Fiery Ganoderma on the booklet.
The little Pegasus' watery eyes rolled around, and then he gestured with his hands, as if expressing something.
Lu Zhan couldn't understand what the little Pegasus was doing, so he looked down at Que Que and asked, "Can you understand?"
"King Queque cannot understand what an idiot is saying." Queque was extremely arrogant, but he did not want to be outdone, so he frowned and said, "Xiao Lu, show me what the Fiery Ganoderma looks like. My hometown is also in the East China Sea, so maybe I can find it!"
Seeing her aggressive look, Lu Zhan rubbed her dog head mercilessly. His relationship with Ling Jiaoyue was harmonious, but their mounts were fighting openly and secretly, which could not promote productivity.
Lu Zhan ruffled Queque's hair, then took out the booklet and showed it to her: "Look!"
Queque looked at the image of the Fiery Ganoderma, pondered for a long time, and then said confidently: "Forget it, let the little idiot take us there. This king is very kind, give her a chance to show herself."
Lu Zhan: “…”
