Chapter 7 Tiger's Den
The ‘Burning Lord Devouring Veins’ was refined.
Of course, it was just an introduction, not even a small success, but for Xu Mo, this was also a big breakthrough since he came to this world.
Guo Xie said that after cultivating internal strength, one can have abundant qi and blood, sharp ears and eyes, and a clear and clear spiritual platform.
Translated, it means faster, stronger, and smarter.
My memory has also improved a lot.
For example, Xu Mo can recall most of the content in "Piaoyun Essays". Even those that he had not specifically memorized before, just glanced at them once or twice, can still remember them now.
The etiquette Xu Mo performed towards the demon tiger was the 'Taoist etiquette' recorded in Piaoyun's essays.
It's quite complicated and ordinary people don't know it.
There are detailed records in the essay. After Xu Mo completed the 'Burning Lord and Devouring Veins', he carefully recalled the details and painted a tiger like a cat. Although it was not standard, it was not possible to see the demonic tiger.
Mainly because Xu Mo behaved calmly and without fear.
Temperament cannot be faked.
Xu Mo is really not afraid.
For him, the worst possible outcome is death, restarting, and doing it all over again.
Yaohu still knows the goods, or Xu Mo made the right bet.
He greeted the demon tiger with a door ceremony, but he didn't know that he just scratched the itch of the demon tiger.
In the past, Demon Tiger has also encountered Taoist cultivators, but they all regarded them as aliens and would never use Taoist rituals. If they did, it would be equivalent to acknowledging that they are the same Taoist.
If you follow the same path as an animal, wouldn’t you also be an animal?
The demon tiger has been practicing cultivation for nearly a hundred years, and he hates being looked down upon by others. He always eats up such people.
In the past, there were many people with certain abilities who wanted to kill it, but they all fell into the trap.
But at this moment, the demon tiger saw that Xu Mo had lost energy and blood before and was about to die, but he improved in a moment, as if he was reborn. This was the first time he had seen this kind of thing, and he thought it was some kind of Taoist secret method.
I also saw that although this man was dressed simply and seemed to be young, he was quite magnanimous and his actions were calm and measured.
The most important thing is that the demon tiger can tell whether a person is really afraid of it.
After practicing it for so long, it can detect the aura of fear and eat it.
Although this man was nervous when facing himself, he had no fear.
In addition, it had seen Taoist rituals, so it naturally regarded Xu Mo as a cultivator.
At this moment, Xu Mo introduced himself to his family after receiving the courtesy.
Xu Mo, who calls himself a casual cultivator, has made up his ancestral home.
Now that we know that the demon tiger has intelligence, we should not take it lightly and treat it as an adult. Moreover, we know from Chen He in Yijing Village and Guo Xie in the prison that the demon tiger has been entrenched in Zao Mountain for decades, and it may be even more.
Long.
As the saying goes, people are old, horses are slippery, and rabbits are hard to catch when they are old. A tiger that has lived for such a long time is definitely not stupid.
So when Xu Mo talked about his origin, he also chose a famous mountain and river in Piaoyun's essay.
I don't know if I can fool him.
At this moment, the demon tiger opened its mouth and spit out human words.
"Why did you come to Zao Mountain to look for me?"
I'm going!
Xu Mo's scalp felt numb.
This thing can actually talk?
This incident was not mentioned in Piaoyun's essays.
Xu Mo's mind was racing, but his face remained as still as a mountain. His ability to accept new things was naturally much stronger than the ancients here.
Monsters, cultivators, warriors, infinite loop.
Having encountered such outrageous things, it seems that there is nothing surprising about seeing a talking tiger.
"Discuss Taoism with the tiger, seek advice... and resolve doubts"
Xu Mo blurted out.
The last sentence was added temporarily as he had a sudden thought.
It is recorded in the essay that this big tiger is eager to ask questions and is extremely sincere, so as long as it involves cultivation, Taoism, etc., it can attract its attention.
Secondly, since the other party is regarded as a "human" existence, it may also have the weaknesses that "humans" have.
For example, if you flatter it, it will feel comfortable.
Xu Mo lowered his attitude and asked for advice humbly, and maybe he would get something unexpected.
The big tiger opposite stared at Xu Mo.
Whenever the other party shows any flaw, it will eat this guy without hesitation.
"You are not good at cultivation, you have no way to talk about, and you are of no use to me. It's okay to eat it!"
This is what the demon tiger said.
It means that it sees that Xu Mo is not good enough and is not worthy of discussing with it. In this case, it is naturally useless to it, and it is better to eat well.
Most people will definitely panic when they hear this.
At this time, Xu Mo asked a question that surprised Yaohu.
"I can eat it, but I have two questions I want to ask the tiger."
"speak!"
"I know that the tiger is sincere in his pursuit of the Tao, and has been practicing hard at Zao Mountain for decades, but I don't know if there will be a breakthrough. What is his state of mind?"
Xu Mo searched his mind and came up with this question.
Just ask Yaohu, have you achieved anything over the years?
The demon tiger is silent.
Maybe you don’t know how to answer, or you may be embarrassed to answer.
Xu Mo guessed that there shouldn't be much progress.
"Second question, is Tiger hungry now?"
"good."
"That means you're not too hungry. In that case, why not eat me when you're still hungry."
Yaohu looked at Xu Mo and wondered what made this guy so brave?
Listen to what I just said. Is that human language?
"The long night is long and I have no intention of sleeping. The tiger lives alone in the mountains. He must be very lonely. He must have troubles and doubts in his heart and there is nowhere to talk about them. Since he wants to eat me, he might as well tell them to me. It's so uncomfortable to hold them in his heart. Anyway, when the time comes, he will take a bite
If you go down there, you don’t have to worry about your inner thoughts being leaked."
Xu Mo started to talk.
He thought clearly, since this demon tiger wanted to eat him, he had to find a way to get something out of his mouth before he died this time.
I won't need it this time, but it might come in handy next time I reboot.
It depends on whether this big tiger takes the bait or not.
Xu Mo thought about it, if this guy didn't say anything and just wanted to eat him, then he would not be able to communicate with this demon tiger next time.
Although there is intelligence, a beast is a beast, and it will eat people when its animal nature is unleashed. Who can bear it?
If there is no harvest this time, I will have to go to the mountain temple next time, borrow mummies to contain the demon tiger, and then escape by myself. When I get out of Zao Mountain, I will find a secluded place to concentrate on practicing my kung fu until I have the strength to protect myself.
Say it again.
Just as he was thinking about it, the demon tiger over there suddenly jumped over and bit Xu Mo with its mouth open.
Although Xu Mo used life-betting methods to practice the 'Burning Lord's Veins' to the basics and strengthened his physique, it was still limited and he was still far from being able to compete head-on with the demon tiger.
So I didn’t resist.
Accept death in stride.
But Xu Mo discovered that the demon tiger was not trying to eat him, but was holding him in its mouth and started running wildly in the forest.
The speed was like riding a roller coaster, with the feeling of ups and downs and the sound of wind whistling in my ears.
After a while, Xu Mo was put down by the demon tiger. Looking around, he saw that the terrain here was dangerous, and a dark hole was exposed under a broken wall in front.
