Chapter 19 Monsters in the Rainy Night
It had been sunny for a long time, but that night, the weather suddenly changed, and dark clouds gathered in large pieces. It was finally going to rain.
Li Shiyin was soaking in the bathtub. There was thunder outside, and she felt it was a kind of enjoyment to soak in the warm and comfortable medicinal bath. She was so comfortable that her toes were loose, and listening to the thunder was like listening to a very beautiful piece of music, and she responded by humming a song.
The medicinal soup now no longer has the pungent smell of herbs. When the master was refining the medicinal soup, he added some vanilla to it. The medicinal soup now smells fragrant, and after soaking, the body will also smell good;
The bathtub has been modified by the master, providing a depression for the head to rest and a soft cushion to support the waist and back, so that she can sleep while taking a bath without worrying about slipping into the water and drowning;
The room has also been paved with a heating array, so the water will not cool down over time, and taking a medicinal bath is like taking a hot spring bath.
In short, her medicinal bath is a kind of enjoyment.
The heat brought the medicinal power into the body, massaging the muscles and relieving the muscle soreness caused by digging the lake during the day. At the same time, the medicinal power settled and was absorbed by the muscles, making the body stronger.
Li Shiyin would sometimes think about how much money such a bucket of medicinal soup would cost, but she couldn't even remember how many herbs Qin Ran used, let alone understand the value of the prescription. However, one thing she could be sure of was that this medicinal soup was very expensive.
I can only say that he is worthy of being a stupid apprentice.
The thunder outside gradually became smaller, and rain came. The rain came from a long distance. At first, it was a few drops. After calming down, it was a heavy downpour.
The sound of rain came in from the window. In the hot medicinal bath, Li Shiyin fell asleep in a daze after a while.
But just when she fell into a dream...
"Boom!"
A huge thunder suddenly sounded outside the house, waking her up suddenly.
She opened her eyes and looked outside. Just then, a bolt of lightning struck down. Then, there was a "split" sound. A fierce light pierced into the house from the closed window, making her eyes go white, as if the lightning was right in front of her.
"Huh..." She exhaled lightly, patted her chest, and eased the shock in her heart.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, another tiger roar came.
The tiger roar calmed the soul. This sound frightened her and made her tense up again. It took a while for her to recover.
Heavy rain, late at night, thunder, tiger roar...
Li Shiyin frowned. Something seemed to have happened outside.
Thinking of this, she came out of the bathtub, dried her body, put on a piece of clothes and went to the corridor outside.
The night was very dark and the rain was heavy. The darkness oppressed the light. The light in the corridor struggled to support and protect the wooden house. But further away, nothing could be seen.
It was against this background that Li Shiyin looked up and saw that in the distant sky, under the clouds, lightning split the darkness and illuminated two huge shadows, facing each other.
The two shadows, one is in the shape of an ox, with a horn on its head, containing divine thunder, and under its four hooves, stepping on lightning; the other is in the shape of a tiger, with its feet stepping on darkness, looking up and roaring. It can be imagined that the tiger roar just now was made by it.
"This..." Li Shiyin widened her eyes, "The battle between demon kings?!"
"That ox is called the Thunder-controlling Unicorn, and that tiger should be the Mysterious Spirit Tiger." Suddenly, the master's gentle voice came from the side. Li Shiyin looked over and saw the master leaning against the door frame of his own room, with his hands on his chest, also looking over there, "The heavy rain tonight was caused by them."
The master really knows everything! Li Shiyin secretly praised and asked, "Why are they fighting?"
"Tigers and cows, why do you say they fight?" Qin Ran retracted his gaze to look at Li Shiyin, and saw that his apprentice was wearing a coat, with spring light looming, and hurriedly looked into the distance, "Predators and prey... that is, they can fight in front of the human sect, which is indeed rare. Both of them are demon beasts above the Nascent Soul stage, and they should know to avoid human forces."
"Is the tiger going to eat the cow?" Li Shiyin's focus was different. She pointed to the relative position of the two demon kings and said, "But why can't the tiger seem to beat the cow? Is it a defensive posture?"
"Who says that tigers can definitely beat cows? The relationship between hunters and prey is never absolute." Qin Ran said, "Besides, the Thunder-controlling Unicorn feeds on lightning, can control lightning, and can use lightning. Look at its four hooves, are they still stepping on lightning? And its horns can also shoot divine thunder. How is it weaker than the Mysterious Nether Spirit Tiger?"
"Oh!" Li Shiyin nodded.
As they were talking, the Thunder Controlling Unicorn and the Mysterious Spirit Tiger were fighting again under the clouds. The tigers roared and the cows mooed continuously. The silhouette of the giant tiger was looming in the clouds. The winding lightning flashed randomly...
This scene was really scary. Li Shiyin subconsciously blocked it with her hands in front of her body, but still felt that it was useless, so she leaned towards Qin Ran and couldn't help asking, "Master, they won't attack us?!"
"No!" Li Shiyin leaned over, and the woman Xiang also rushed over. Qin Ran felt uncomfortable all over. He stared at the battle scene over there and shook his head, assuring, "It looks like they are close, but they are actually far away. Besides, the supreme elders of Daojianmen must be watching them, and there is also the mountain protection formation..."
"Kucha!!"
However, as he was talking here, before his voice fell, a dazzling lightning suddenly lit up over there. It was the Thunder Controlling Unicorn using its horn to cast a divine thunder.
Then the Xuanming Spirit Tiger suddenly disappeared, and then the roar of the Xuanming Spirit Tiger and the scream of the Yulei Unicorn sounded together.
At the same time, a small lightning flash also came from the other side.
From the Yulei Unicorn opening up, to the Xuanming Spirit Tiger disappearing, to the Yulei Unicorn screaming, and then to the lightning flash coming over, it was actually a flash, almost at the same time.
Before Qin Ran finished speaking, the divine thunder was in front of him, and he couldn't help but cursed: "Fuck!"
At the same time, he formed seals with both hands and performed the water shield technique. A layer of water film spread out to protect him and the stupid apprentice beside him.
As soon as the water film spread out, there was a snap, and the lightning struck the water shield. Then the water shield shattered and turned into water mist, dispersing the lightning.
This water shield is amazing.
Qin Ran was determined to follow the path of alchemy, and he was determined to follow the path of survival to the end. He practiced the art of escape and shield very well, and it might be better than alchemy.
This divine lightning, if it were an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, it would not be possible to defend against it...
Well, Qin Ran didn't defend it completely, and a little lightning was still missed, and it struck him.
This struck him so hard that he was shocked and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Master? Master!" Li Shiyin shouted, and reached out to help Qin Ran again, but her hand was immediately numbed by the residual divine lightning on Qin Ran's body, so she didn't dare to reach out again, and just shouted stupidly beside her.
Qin Ran slowly came back to his senses, still in shock, and replied: "I... I'm fine..."
He took two deep breaths again, then reached into his arms and took out a burnt amulet.
The trump card of survival, minus one.
"What an unexpected disaster!" He couldn't help but curse, "I'm so unlucky!"
"Master... Master!" At this time, Li Shiyin next to him suddenly said, "Well, it doesn't seem to be completely an unexpected disaster..."
Qin Ran turned his head to see what his apprentice was doing stupidly, only to see that she was pointing at a place downstairs. He looked over there and saw a faint glowing thing in the open space over there.
He looked over carefully and found that it was a kitten-sized... little tiger!
"Xuanming Spirit Tiger... cub?!!"
