The Great Escape of Martial Arts

Chapter 88 The Unpalatable Appetizers
The divine eagle's footsteps were exceptionally fast, walking among the mountains, rocks and grass as fast as a galloping horse, the two of them caught up with light kung fu, secretly amazed in their hearts.

The two of them walked lower and lower, straight into a deep valley.

After walking for a long time, they came to a big cave. The divine sculpture nodded three times in front of the cave, yelled three times, and looked back at the two of them.

Seeing that it seemed to be saluting to the cave, Wu Zhai whispered to the little dragon girl:
"I'm afraid this is the place where senior Dugu's bones are buried. He tamed this giant sculpture, but we must have a few copies."

So he took her hand, knelt down in front of the cave, bowed a few times, and said:
"Senior Dugu, junior Yin Zhiping and Xiao Longnv kowtowed to senior, please forgive the crime of trespassing."

After waiting for a while, there was no answer in the cave.

The divine eagle came over, grabbed the corner of Wu Zhai's clothes with its huge beak and pulled it a few times, made a low cry, as if inviting him to enter the cave, then turned its head and stepped into the cave first.

Wu Zhai and Xiao Longnu followed up and saw that although the opening of the cave was wide, it was actually very shallow. It was less than three feet long and had reached the end. There was nothing else in the cave except a stone table and a stone bench. It's like being in an ancient tomb.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then heard the divine eagle call out to the corner of the cave a few times.

Wu Zhai turned his head and saw a pile of rocks rising up from the corner of the cave, which looked like a tomb, but there was no other mark. It is expected that after the death of this strange man, the stones were piled on top of his body by a divine sculpture, so there was no tombstone in front of him. up.

Thinking of how majestic he was in the world when he was alive, but after his death, there was only a divine sculpture by his side, I feel quite embarrassed.

When I looked up, I saw that there seemed to be words written on the cave wall.

It's just covered in dust and moss, so you can't see clearly in the dark, Wu Zhai lit a dead branch, stretched out his hand to wipe off the moss on the cave wall, and sure enough, three lines of characters appeared, the handwriting was very thin, but it penetrated extremely deep into the stone. , It was obviously drawn with a very sharp weapon.

Look at those three lines:

"Across the rivers and lakes for more than [-] years, killing all enemies and defeating all heroes, there is no defense in the world, no choice but to live in seclusion in the deep valley, and take the eagle as a friend. Woohoo, I can't find an opponent in my life, and I am really lonely and embarrassing."

The inscription is as follows:
"Sword Demon Dugu seeks defeat."

Xiao Longnu said in surprise:

"I didn't expect that Senior Dugu would travel all over the world to find someone who could defeat him, but he was never able to do so. He finally died here in depression. How profound and exquisite is his martial arts?"

Remembering the predecessor Feng Lie in my heart, I can't help but be fascinated.

She was lost in thought for a while, and Wu Zhai said:
"Dugu Qiubai is so charming, he must have used his sword to shake the sky and shake the world, which is really admirable, but now he is buried here, unknown, let's kowtow!"

So he took Xiao Longnu and bowed four times in front of the stone tomb.

Seeing that the two people were very respectful to the stone tomb, the divine sculpture seemed to be happy in his heart, and stretched out his wings to pat the two people's shoulders a few times.

Wu Zhai held the lit dead branch and inspected the cave for a week, but couldn't find any other relics. Thinking that Dugu Qiubai died in a hurry, but he didn't even leave the sword manual, so he clasped his fists and said:
"Brother Diao, we met by chance, it's fate, how about going for a drink together?"

The divine eagle croaked a few times as an answer.

Wu Zhai didn't know whether it agreed or not, so he took Xiaolongnv out of the cave and walked all the way to the thatched hut where he lived these days.

When he turned around, he saw Shen Diao following behind, who seemed to want to drink.

Overjoyed in his heart, he started lightness kung fu with Xiao Longnv and ran all the way, and arrived in front of the thatched shed in a short while.

Wu Zhai opened a jar of fine wine, poured himself a bowl, and put the rest in front of the divine sculpture.

But Xiao Longnv took out a few pieces of snacks from her bag, held them in her palm, and said:

"Senior Divine Condor, why don't you have some snacks first?"

But Shen Diao took a step back, shook his head slowly, looked around for a while, then nodded to the two, and called out a few times, the voice was very peculiar.

Wu Zhai laughed and said:

"Brother Diao doesn't like snacks, but drinks!"

The divine eagle whistled a few more times, then suddenly gave a long cry, turned around and ran away. It had a heavy body and short wings and could not fly, but it ran as fast as a horse and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Longnu said in astonishment:

"Smelly Taoist priest, I'll give it some snacks, is Senior Shendiao angry?"

Wu Zhai laughed and said:

"I call it Brother Diao, but you call it Senior. Why don't you call me Master Yin?"

Xiao Longnu glared at him and said:
"Smelly Taoist priest, you have a good idea!"

Wu Zhai chuckled, drank the fine wine in the bowl, and said:
"Brother Diao isn't angry with you, I guess it's just going to get some delicacies for drinking!"

After a while, the divine eagle really flew back.

However, it was holding something in its mouth, shaped like a goose egg, about the size of a fist, but it was dark purple, with a faint golden light flowing, and it smelled very fishy from a distance.

The divine eagle nodded to the two of them, suddenly stepped forward, and actually fed the smelly thing into Xiao Longnu's mouth.

Xiao Longnv was shocked, and hurriedly dodged backwards.

The divine eagle stepped forward to catch up, its wings were threatening with the strong wind, its mouth whispered, and its eyes seemed to have a look of responsibility.

Xiao Longnv couldn't dodge, turned her head to ask Wu Zhai for help, and shouted:

"Smelly Taoist priest, come and save me!"

Wu Zhai hurriedly jumped over, stood in front of the little dragon girl, pressed against the wings of the divine eagle and said:
"Brother Diao wait a minute, I'll persuade her first!"

Then he turned to Xiao Longnu and said:

"Silly girl, this is the guts of the snake, it can increase your skill, eat it quickly!"

Xiao Longnu just shook her head and called:

"I don't eat, I don't want to increase my skill, let it go away!"

Hearing the words, the divine eagle did not press anymore, folded its wings, took another two steps back, whispered in its mouth, and seemed extremely disappointed in its eyes.

Xiao Longnv breathed a sigh of relief, hid behind Wu Zhai, and said apologetically:
"Senior Shen Diao, I accept your kindness, but I really can't swallow this thing, so don't be angry, okay?"

The divine eagle let out a long cry, shook his head slightly, and looked very helpless, just like the parents at home seeing that naughty child who is picky about food.

After a little delay, he sent the snake gall to Wu Zhai's mouth again.

Wu Zhai couldn't get what he wanted, he opened his mouth to catch the snake's gall, the stench immediately hit his nostrils, he wanted to gag, and the snake's gall was so great that he couldn't hold it in!

I had to spit it out and hold it in my hand.

The divine eagle hummed in low tones, with a stern expression on its face, as if urging it.

Wu Zhai smiled bitterly and said:
"Brother Eagle, please don't rush me. This snake is too brave, so you must enjoy it slowly."

The divine eagle ignored him, walked to the wine jar, drank by himself, and occasionally glanced sideways, seemingly cunning, but quickly covered it up.

Wu Zhai sat down cross-legged, frowning and holding the snake gall in his hand.

Xiao Longnv covered her mouth and nose, and said worriedly:
"Smelly Taoist priest, do you really want to eat?"

Wu Zhai said solemnly:

"Must eat!"

With his eyes closed, he slowly brought the snake gall to his mouth.

After just one bite, the skin burst and the bitter juice flowed out. The juice was very fishy and bitter. Although Wu Zhai was mentally prepared, he still retched...

The divine eagle suddenly opened its huge beak, raised its head and let out a long cry, as if it was laughing, which was extremely weird.

Wu Zhai thought to himself:

"This eagle has really become a master, and it knows how to laugh at others!"
