C279 Golden Ginseng Child

"What are you doing?" Chen Tianming was shocked and angry. He raised his sword and was about to stab at the Black Water Serpent. The Black Water Serpent's violent impact on the wall could cause a violent collapse. If the entire snowy peak collapsed, it was estimated that the cave would be destroyed in an instant. With Chen Tianming's current Early Period of Core Transformation Stage cultivation base, he didn't dare to say that he could escape.

"The Black Water Serpent swallowed and swallowed the dark red snake tongue. Its huge head shook violently, and its single eye revealed a deep fear.

When the sword finger reached seven inches away from the Black Water Serpent, Chen Tianming immediately raised his sword. The Black Water Serpent's entire body began to tremble. It was estimated that it had been frightened quite badly by Chen Tianming's Jizhan Spell.

Only when Chen Tianming got closer did he realize that there was a big hole in the place where the Black Water Serpent had collided with its head. It was just that he didn't find it in the darkness just now.

Now that he had discovered it, Chen Tianming knew that he had misunderstood the Black Water Serpent. He lightly tapped the Black Water Serpent's head with his sword. Chen Tianming took two steps forward and dived into the big hole like a cunning rabbit.

The huge snake body of the Black Water Serpent shrank back and entrenched itself in a corner. Traces of viscous liquid flowed out of its body and adhered to the wounds on its body. A thick layer of membrane was formed, and a faint rotting smell was emitted from it. It was not like the Nine-Headed Bird that had underworld magic to treat its injuries. Even primordial species like the Black Water Serpent had their own unique healing methods.

Chen Tianming rushed into the cave. The cave extended from the bottom to the top, reaching a height of a thousand meters. The inside was dry and comfortable, and it was pitch black inside. The cave was not big, and the space was only about the size of a hundred square meters house. From a rough estimate, this cave was completely a hollow belly of the mountain. However, this small cave frightened Chen Tianming. He was stunned by the huge pile of items in front of him. These items were absolutely priceless in the outside world.

The things inside were all piled up together like a small mountain. However, there were at least a dozen Nine Leaf Lingzhi on this small mountain. There were also those 10,000 year old ginseng with roots, which were all piled up in the middle of the cave. Of course, this was only the tip of the iceberg.

There were also some unknown stones piled up into a small mountain that was three meters tall. In order to look more closely, Chen Tianming's Genuine Qi penetrated into the smoke, and the smoke immediately emitted a bright silver light.

However, in an instant, the small hill that was three meters tall emitted a treasure light that soared to the sky. Under the silver light of the smoke, the colorful light immediately illuminated this small space. It seemed that these stones were mainly made up of various kinds of gemstones, each of which was as big as a fist. There was no light before, but now that it was illuminated by the light, instantly, the light was refracted and refracted into an incomparably bright light.

Chen Tianming couldn't even close half of his mouth.

There were some strange things among them. There were even some extremely good refining materials. Even with Chen Tianming's experience, he could only distinguish a few of them, and most of them were not recognized.

"Wuwuwu..."

Suddenly, a cry entered Chen Tianming's ears.

Chen Tianming looked in the direction of the cry and saw a child squatting in the corner. The little boy was only the size of a newborn, but he was squatting there and crying while covering his head. His golden hair had nine red plant balls growing on his head.

"Where did the baby come from?" Chen Tianming was puzzled. His purpose of coming here was to find the golden ginseng, but it was not easy to find the golden ginseng among all the items in the cave.

Although these things could be considered as treasures of the first grade, they were merely worldly possessions in Chen Tianming's eyes. Although he was surprised in his heart, it didn't matter after he recovered from his shock. What he was most concerned about was the golden ginseng. It was the whereabouts of the golden ginseng.

But now that he suddenly saw such a child here, Chen Tianming was at a loss for what to do for a moment.

He walked a few steps to the child's side, and a fresh smell came from the child's body. Chen Tianming's spirit was immediately lifted, and he squatted down. He reached out to touch the child's head and coaxed, "Little child, Don't cry. Tell me, why are you here?" Chen Tianming was a little angry in his heart. This Black Water Serpent didn't even let go of a child.

As for the little turtle lying on Chen Tianming's left shoulder, at this time, it excitedly cried out to the child. Its two little eyes were even shining. "Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"

"Don't be noisy! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!" Chen Tianming turned to the little turtle on his shoulder and shouted at it. He was afraid that the little turtle would scare the child.

The little turtle was silent after being scolded by Chen Tianming, but the child was shocked. He raised his head and blinked his big eyes. He looked at Chen Tianming pitifully, tears rolling in his eyes.

Chen Tianming looked at the pain in his heart and picked up the child. His skin was smooth like ice, and his skin was surprisingly good.

Although Chen Tianming felt strange in his heart, he didn't think too much about it. After all, when faced with such a young child, everyone would have sympathy.

At this moment, the Nine-Headed Bird, which had been resting on Chen Tianming's right shoulder, flew up like a ray of dark light. Its target was the pile of strange things. After a while, it found a gray egg the size of two fists in the pile of strange things.

"Argh... Keke..." The Nine-Headed Bird happily cried out.

Chen Tianming saw that it was strange. In a few steps, he arrived at the place where the Nine-Headed Bird landed and asked, "What's wrong? What's the matter with this egg?"

"Ao Jie! ... This... this is my child! " The Nine-Headed Bird was so excited that it began to squeak. It used its wings to hug the gray egg. It continuously used its bald head to rub against the egg shell. It was so excited that even its eyes became wet.

"Didn't the Black Water Serpent already devour your child? Why is it still left behind?" Chen Tianming held the child and squatted down in puzzlement. He reached out and touched the grey egg. He believed that if the Nine-Headed Bird could say that, then this egg must be the child of the Nine-Headed Bird.

"I don't know either. I saw with my own eyes that that bastard swallowed my child into his stomach. But, but this is really my child! When I entered this cave, i sensed something. At that time, I still didn't believe it. But now..." Nine-Headed Bird couldn't continue. He kept rubbing his bald head against the eggshell.

Chen Tianming looked out of the cave, puzzled. The Black Water Serpent was entrenched there with a very dispirited expression. The green eye stared unblinkingly at Chen Tianming, who was inside the cave!

"It's time to talk to this guy!" Chen Tianming thought to himself. He carried the child and strode towards the cave entrance.

There was a large pool of sticky black liquid on the ground at the cave entrance. It gave off an unpleasant rotting smell. When he had just entered the cave, Chen Tianming had jumped in, so he did not notice it. Now it seemed that the large pool of black sticky liquid at the cave entrance was definitely the poison used by the Black Water Serpent to prevent others from entering the cave.

Chen Tianming didn't even think about it and directly stepped over. He didn't even step on the pool of black sticky liquid.

In the distance, the green eye of the Black Water Serpent narrowed. It was obvious that it was a little disappointed that Chen Tianming didn't step on the pool of black sticky liquid.

"Do you wish for me to step on the black liquid that you have placed at the cave entrance?" Chen Tianming sneered as he looked at the Black Water Serpent and said.

The huge snake body of the Black Water Serpent trembled violently. After that, the huge snake head shook violently, as if it was denying it to Chen Tianming.

It was unknown whether it was intentional or not, but the Black Water Serpent's single eye would occasionally glance at the child in Chen Tianming's arms, scaring the child so much that the child would start swallowing again.

Chen Tianming lightly patted the child's slippery back twice to comfort him. He looked at the Black Water Serpent and said, "Tell me, where is the golden ginseng? Otherwise,i will tear your bones apart!"

The Black Water Serpent blinked twice with its dark green eyes. It looked at the child in Chen Tianming's arms. Its huge head leaned towards Chen Tianming, and its dark red snake tongue kept flicking and flicking in and out of its mouth.

Seeing the Black Water Serpent's big mouth reach out, the child was so scared that he buried his head in Chen Tianming's arms and cried. Chen Tianming immediately took two steps back and angrily scolded, "Get lost! Are you challenging my patience?"

The huge head of the Black Water Serpent quickly shrank back. Its green eyes seemed to be filled with grievance.

"Heh! I forgot that you don't know how to speak. Now,i'm asking you a question. If you're right, nod your head. If not, shake your head. Got it?" Chen Tianming patted his forehead and laughed self-deprecatingly. When he saw that Nine-Headed Bird knew how to speak, he thought that the Black Water Serpent also knew how to speak!

The Black Water Serpent nodded its huge head and carefully looked at Chen Tianming, waiting for Chen Tianming to ask a question.

Chen Tianming nodded his head in satisfaction. "Is the golden ginseng in that cave?"

The Black Water Serpent shook its head first, then nodded its head.

"My Sun, are you shaking your head or nodding?" Chen Tianming was also confused by the Black Water Serpent.

The Black Water Serpent swallowed and swallowed its snake tongue. The one-eyed man intentionally glanced at the child in Chen Tianming's hand. Seeing that Chen Tianming was a little angry, the Black Water Serpent retracted its eyes and tilted its head.

Chen Tianming realized that it was really difficult to talk to the Black Water Serpent, so he could not help but miss this topic and ask, "Is the grey egg in the cave the Nine-Headed Bird's egg?"

The Black Water Serpent answered very quickly this time, and it nodded its head vigorously.

Chen Tianming slightly nodded his head. "Is that thing in the cave your collection from all these years?"

When he asked this question, the eye of the Black Water Serpent contracted. Even the huge snake's body seemed to twitch for a while before it nodded its head.

Chen Tianming found it funny in his heart. Legends had it that dragons all liked treasures, especially shiny things. Basically, every dragon had its own treasure. He never thought that the Black Water Serpent would be the same.

Chen Tianming smiled and said, "Don't worry. I don't care about the things you hid in the cave, but you have to tell me where the golden ginseng is!" Indeed, although there were many ten-thousand-year-old ginseng and Nine Leaf Lingzhi in the cave, they were all rare treasures in the eyes of mortals. But to a cultivator like Chen Tianming, they were just worldly possessions. At most, they could only be regarded as better healing herbs.

After listening to Chen Tianming's words, the Black Water Serpent completely relaxed. As its tongue flicked, its single eye was filled with quite a bit of excitement. However, its eyes were still glancing at the child in Chen Tianming's arms from time to time.

There was a faint fragrance on the child's body. This kind of fragrance was different from ordinary ones. It made people feel very comfortable smelling it, and it made Chen Tianming very happy.

Seeing the Black Water Serpent constantly looking at the child in his arms, Chen Tianming felt strange. He took a deep breath and raised the child in front of his eyes to carefully examine it.

Suddenly, Chen Tianming thought of a legend. It was said that the ginseng that had turned into a spirit had facial features. Furthermore, if it advanced another level, it would transform into a human.

"Could it be...?" Chen Tianming also did not dare to believe it. His eyes stared blankly at the child in his hand. He said in disbelief, "Could it be that you are the golden ginseng?"

The child was probably frightened by the Black Water Serpent. Now that he saw Chen Tianming looking at him like that again, he immediately started crying loudly again.

As for the Black Water Serpent, its huge head was about to fall off.

Chen Tianming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling that his throat was somewhat dry. He looked at the Black Water Serpent, which was still nodding vigorously, and finally confirmed in his heart that no wonder the little turtle would cry out so excitedly when it saw the child...

Chen Tianming looked at the crying child and smiled bitterly in his heart. "After searching for half a day, the golden ginseng turned out to be a child? F * ck!" He felt a little aggrieved. If it was just a ginseng, there was nothing much to eat. But now, the golden ginseng had already become a spirit, and it had even taken the form of a human child. How was he supposed to eat it? Could it be that he was going to eat it?

"No wonder Senior Apprentice Brother said that the golden ginseng would run!" Chen Tianming remembered what Guiguzi had said at that time. He guessed that Guiguzi had already known that the golden ginseng was a child.

"Being able to stay in this map for ten thousand years without being caught, perhaps you have some ability as well!" Chen Tianming held the child in his arms and patted him on the back to comfort him. Now that things had come to this, he gave up on the idea of eating the golden ginseng. Now that he wanted to repair the Core in his dantian, he could only find another way.

The child was comforted by Chen Tianming, and his crying gradually died down. Chen Tianming turned around and walked into the cave. He randomly picked a few ten-thousand-year-old ginseng and nine-leaf ganoderma from a large pile of items. Since he did not need them, those who could use them would naturally enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed. This was something that did not make sense.

Chen Tianming thought of his gan-grandfather, Xu Zuyuan. This time, he had to go and visit him. When the time came, he would have to ask Xu Zuyuan if he wanted to cultivate. If he didn't cultivate, he would give this ten-thousand-year-old ginseng to Xu Zuyuan, which could extend his life by a few hundred years.

Chen Tianming turned his hand and put the few ten-thousand-year-old ginseng and Nine Leaf Lingzhi into his bracelet. He then turned to the Nine-Headed Bird and shouted, "Let's go out. It's uncomfortable to stay in the cave!" Since they had found the golden ginseng and the Nine-Headed Bird had also found its child, everyone was naturally happy and did not have any regrets.

The Nine-Headed Bird turned its head around and looked at Chen Tianming with gratitude. The bald bird nodded its head twice, and a cloud of Dark Qi immediately wrapped around its body. Its body also gradually began to grow bigger.

It used its claws to grab the gray egg, and then flew out briskly.
