Chapter 696 The wonderful golden finger
[……]
[This month’s golden finger: Traveling Frog]
[……]
Looking Zhou Qing was stunned by the information in front of him, a little confused.
The other information is not worth paying much attention to. It is the same as before. It is this month’s golden finger...
Traveling Frog?
Not to mention, Zhou Qing has actually heard of this name before.
To be precise, he had heard of it in his previous life...
“Quack!”
At this time, a frog sound sounded in Zhou Qing's mind, and then he "saw" a frog jumping out of the gray mist at the edge of Soul Township and coming to his soul.
The frog has big eyes and very healthy colors all over its body. It is a very cute type and can be called a cute pet. It also carries a small lotus leaf behind its back.
Obviously, this is Zhou Qing’s golden finger this month.
Is it really a frog? Frog boy?
Unlike [Alien Beast Clone (Kun)], although Zhou Qing can also feel the connection between himself and the frog in front of him, the other party is not his clone, so he cannot have some information passed down in the blood. .
Looking at the frog, Zhou Qing asked: "What is your role?"
From the smart eyes of the traveling frog, Zhou Qing judged that it should have some wisdom.
“Quack!”
“Going on a trip?”
Inexplicably, Zhou Qing understood what the frog in front of him said.
It's not the kind of spiritual communication where you can ignore the language barrier and understand the other party's meaning directly.
But he really understood the frog's language.
“What about after the trip?”
“Quack!”
“Can you bring something back to me?”
Full marks, full marks for frog language!
“What can you bring me back?”
“Quack!”
The frog said it didn’t know either.
“Where are you going to travel?”
"Quack!"
It's still the answer I don't know.
"What race are you? How did you appear here?"
"Quack!"
"..."
Zhou Qing asked a lot of questions, and most of the frog's answers were that he didn't know. It could only give two answers to Zhou Qing's questions, namely:
I can travel, and I can bring things back.
I don’t know anything about any other questions.
It can only be said that this traveling frog has some wisdom, but not much.
Looking at the traveling frog squatting in front of him, Zhou Qing fell into deep thought.
This golden finger is the same as the [Alien Beast Clone]. They are both living creatures and life-type golden fingers, but they are also very different.
Goldfinger is life, Zhou Qing is not surprised. Whether it is the [Alien Beast Clone] or the green and white snake demon dropped by Brother Shu, aren't they all living entities.
The old man with the ring is also a very classic golden finger type. Zhou Qing has a little frog, which is not a big problem.
【Should I use life points to extract the golden fingers I have? 】
Goldfinger’s question appeared, Zhou Qing thought about it and refused.
This month's golden finger is interesting. He probably guessed what the frog would bring back to him after traveling.
It must be a treasure anyway.
So he decided to keep the [Traveling Frog] and study it carefully.
The inquiry prompt disappears, and this month’s golden finger is confirmed.
Looking at the little frog, Zhou Qing said again:
"Can you go outside?"
"Quack!"
This was a meaningless frog cry, and then the traveling frog disappeared into Zhou Qing's soul hometown and appeared outside. world.
It’s really okay.
The frog croaked, then became quiet and motionless.
Zhou Qing called An Lang out of the ghost house.
In order to prevent An Lang from disturbing him and Bai Ruoyue, he allowed An Lang to sleep in the ghost house today.
“Sir, what are you doing?”
An Lang stretched out, with a look of relief on his face.
“You can sleep to death.”
Zhou Qing glanced at An Lang, then pointed at the traveling frog.
"What's there?"
An Lang glanced there and asked doubtfully:
"What's there? It's empty and nothing."
Huh?
Zhou Qing's heart moved, he raised his foot and touched the frog lightly, causing it to cry out.
But An Lang still had no reaction.
Does anyone else see the Traveling Frog or hear it?
"Sir, are you confused? And, where is Sister Bai?"
"You are just confused. The senior sister is practicing in the next room."
As Zhou Qing spoke, he drove the traveling frog to jump towards An Lang, and then saw it pass directly through An Lang's leg, as if passing through a shadow, and the two did not intersect at all.
I guess, what a ghost frog.
No, An Lang is the ghost.
But it’s really amazing.
“You can reconnect with Senior Sister after her training is over. You can practice outside first... and you are not allowed to sleep in the ghost house again!”
"Oh, I won't sleep if I don't sleep."
Zhou Qing took the traveling frog out of the room and went to Bai Ruoyue. The frog called again, but she didn't respond.
It seems that no one can see it except myself.
I have to say, this is quite convenient and very safe.
Let the traveling frog return to the Soul Country again, Zhou Qing gave it an order.
"Let's go on a trip."
"Quack!"
"You still want to bring food?"
Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect to hear it from the frog's mouth. The third answer besides knowing.
Bringing food when traveling... is indeed reasonable.
Frogboy had no money, so what if he went too far and got hungry, so he had to bring his own dry food.
It’s so reasonable!
"What is your food?"
After asking, under Zhou Qing's gaze, the traveling frog jumped directly and landed on his spiritual sea.
Then... a full 90% of his mental power was absorbed. There was also a strange movement in his physical body, and 90% of his true energy and blood were also absorbed by the frog.
After doing all this, three thin lines of blue, black and red appeared on the frog's abdomen, and there seemed to be liquid flowing inside.
It turned its head and glanced at Zhou Qing, giving Zhou Qing a wise look.
“Quack!”
With a single bound, the Traveling Frog jumped into the gray mist at the edge of the Soul Country again, never to be seen again.
Let’s travel!
The soul town was empty, and there was no other living being except Zhou Qing.
Feeling his own weakness, Zhou Qing took a long time to come back to his senses and sighed.
“Such a small frog has quite a big appetite.”
How huge is his spirit, blood, and true energy?
It is so profound that most practitioners in the same realm cannot imagine it. They did not expect that 90% of it would be eaten by a traveling frog and used as dry food on the road.
Of course, this can be restored, which is equivalent to consuming 90% of the strength in the battle. It does not mean that Zhou Qing's upper limit of strength has been permanently weakened by 90%. The traveling frog is a golden finger and is here to help Zhou Qing, but not To harm him.
After absorbing the energy of refining the world, you can naturally recover this consumption.
With Zhou Qing's recovery speed, his spiritual sea, which was already close to drying up, has now accumulated a lot of spiritual power.
“Fortunately, the frog will not travel until it gets my instructions, otherwise I won’t be able to fight with people this month or go to some dangerous place.”
If traveling The frog can decide by himself when to travel. At that time, Zhou Qing happens to be fighting someone again, and 90% of his energy, vitality, and blood will disappear directly...
That's just like delivering food to others.
Fortunately, the traveling frog listened to Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing waited for a while, but there was no sign of the traveling frog.
“I don’t know when the frog will come back.”
He had asked the frog this question before, but unfortunately it fell into the category of asking three questions and not knowing.
Could he have absconded with the food?
However, this month’s golden finger is indeed very interesting. I don’t know how useful it is, but it is indeed unique.
I just don’t know whether this traveling frog was created by Goldfinger, or whether it already existed in heaven and earth. Where did Goldfinger catch the working frog...
Next, Zhou Qing While practicing on his own, he was watching over Bai Ruoyue to ensure that she would not be in danger.
One night passed, and when the morning light fell on the earth, the sound of frogs croaked again in Zhou Qing's ears and mind.
In the soul town, the traveling frog jumped out of the gray mist and came to Zhou Qing.
"The trip is over?"
It was just one night, not long, and Zhou Qing was curious about where the frog went.
He saw again that the three lines on the frog's abdomen were still there, but they were much shorter.
You came back before you finished eating the dry food?
But when he looked at the frog's face, it actually gave people a sense of joy and satisfaction. As if to say: I went out and had a great time.
“Quack!”
At this time, the frog turned around and showed Zhou Qing the lotus leaf on its back.
On the lotus leaf, there are three small things, namely a bug, a jade bottle, and a red fruit.
"Is this the treasure you brought me?"
Zhou Qing picked up these three things, and they instantly changed from pocket-sized to normal size.
But what are these three things?
Zhou Qing took a look at the insect first. It was very beautiful and crystal clear. There was still liquid flowing inside the insect's body. Zhou Qing seemed to smell the aroma of wine vaguely.
Seeing no problem, Zhou Qing used his spiritual power to touch the insect, and sudden changes occurred.
A young voice sounded in his ear.
"Master, is this the wine bug?"
Immediately, an old voice appeared.
“Yes, the fifth-level wine bug can temper the true essence of a Marrow Cleansing Realm warrior, making his true essence a little higher than his actual cultivation level.”
“Marrow Cleansing Level A warrior who has reached the level of marrow cleansing will be able to possess the true essence of the marrow cleansing level in advance. If it exceeds the marrow cleansing level, it will lose its effect.”
The young voice sounded again, "It's amazing. If you have a level of true energy that is a little higher than your own cultivation level in advance, wouldn't it be able to get twice the result with half the effort when you practice?"
"Of course."
The old voice replied: "Liquor worm, this is the unique treasure of my divine court. Give it to my divine court." It has brought great help.”
“Okay, put this wine worm away and refine nine more fifth-level wine worms. My mission for this year will be completed. You don’t need five yet. Liquor Worm, I will prepare it for you when you reach the Marrow Cleansing Realm.”
“Thank you, Master!”
The two voices disappeared and never sounded again.
"Fifth-level wine bug? Improve true energy?"
Zhou Qing looked at the crystal bug in his hand, with a strong look of surprise in his eyes.
He basically figured out what happened.
The conversation just now most likely happened when this fifth-order wine insect was being refined.
The traveling frog not only brought back the fifth-level wine worm, but also brought back this dialogue. As long as Zhou Qing's mental power touches the wine worm, this dialogue can be triggered and he will understand the role of this treasure.
Quite considerate.
This should be a hidden mechanism of this month’s Goldfinger. It is to reproduce a conversation. It is very simple and has no difficulty.
“Interesting, really interesting.”
Looking at the traveling frog and the fifth-order wine worm, Zhou Qing suddenly thought of a question and asked quickly:
< br>
"Did you bring back someone else's refined wine worm? Did the other party lose a wine worm?"
That old voice said, it will take ten fifth-level wine worms to be refined before it is complete. The mission of the Divine Court.
Now a traveling frog has strayed away...
Zhou Qing felt guilty for some reason, as if he had tricked an old man unknowingly.
The behavior of the traveling frog also made Zhou Qing not sure what to say.
Bring other people's treasures back to him?
It turns out you are on such a trip.
“Quack, quack, quack!”
Zhou Qing was slightly startled. The frog’s words probably meant that this was not the other party’s wine bug, but it was passing by. After seeing the wine bug, it It grows on the luggage.
The lotus leaf is its luggage.
"The wine bug grew out of the bag without taking the opponent's..."
Zhou Qing was surprised, what is the principle of this?
Can I copy a treasure just by looking at it?
Zhou Qing took out something of his own and asked:
"Can your luggage grow with this treasure?"
"Quack!"
Going on a trip!
Zhou Qing understood this meaning. Only the treasures he saw during the trip could grow on the luggage.
It is a traveling frog after all, not a replicating frog.
However, after learning this information, Zhou Qing felt a little more relaxed.
The person who is seen by the frog will not lose a treasure inexplicably, causing various accidents. He can also get the same treasure, a win-win situation.
At the same time, Zhou Qing also discovered that the frog seemed to have become smarter after returning from this trip.
Able to answer more of his questions.
Zhou Qing touched the jade bottle with his spiritual power again, and the conversation rang out again, but this time the voice was different.
A majestic male voice said:
"Ju Ke, you have made great achievements this time. This bottle of divine fluid is the reward from the divine court."
"You are practicing for the third transformation of the gods. The divine fluid can help you in the third transformation." Within days, you can directly complete the transformation into a god, and your soul and body will benefit, helping you to condense the Yin Shen and True Blood faster!"
"Ju Ke thanks God General Hui Tuo!"
The sound fades away and never appears again.
"Soul-tong liquid? Ascending to the third transformation of the gods?"
Zhou Qing looked at the jade bottle in his hand, feeling confused.
What is the cultivation of the three divine transformations? He had never heard of it, but judging from what the general said, it was something helpful in condensing Yin Shen and True Blood.
Dengshen Sanhua, does it refer to the three condensations and three powders?
Also, this divine liquid is also related to Shenting. What kind of force is this?
Never heard of it, really never heard of it.
Zhou Qing's eyes looked at the last bright red fruit, and his spiritual power came into contact. This time, a young voice appeared.
"Do you want to learn martial arts?"
"The Divine Court divides the talents of all living beings in the world into fools, mediocrities, talents, geniuses, wizards and other talents. Not to mention wizards are even stronger Your talent, you are not even a talented person, you are just He is a mediocre person. Even if he practices martial arts, he will not achieve anything in this life. It will take you ten years or even more to make progress in one year."
"Do you still want to practice martial arts?"< br>
Another boy’s voice sounded.
"I want to practice martial arts at all costs, even my life!"
"Okay, I'll satisfy you. This is the body-changing fruit, a rare treasure in the world. After taking it, it can transform a fool's talent into a genius. ! ”
“But after taking the body-changing effect, it will take a full period of time. Chen's body is eaten by thousands of ants, the flesh is cut and the bones are broken, and the pain is severe. If you can't stand it, everything will be over. "
"Do you dare?"
"Why don't you dare? If I can’t become a strong man and avenge my parents and sister, I would rather die now!”
The voice disappeared, but Zhou Qing also understood everything he should understand.
“The body-changing fruit turns a fool into a genius, and it’s the divine court.”
Looking at the three treasures in front of him, Zhou Qing’s eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Shengting, what kind of force is this? Where is it again?
From the dialogue carried by these three treasures, Zhou Qing can judge that this divine court is definitely not a simple force.
Liquor worms and psychic liquid are both first-class treasures.
What's more, the last paragraph also revealed that the Divine Court divides the cultivation qualifications of all living beings in the world, which is not something ordinary forces are qualified to do.
"Where is the Divine Court? Where did you find these things?"
"Quack!"
In the place where I traveled.
Zhou Qing was speechless, he was just talking nonsense.
“Where are you traveling?”
“Quack!”
That’s where you travel.
Well, although it seems that the wisdom has increased, it is still not much.
Zhou Qing looked at the gray fog at the edge of Soul Village, and jumped into it.
These gray fogs are incidental to the appearance of the Soul Country. As the Soul Country grows, the gray fog will dissolve to fill the Soul Country and strengthen the spirit, but the gray fog will never disappear.
Zhou Qing's soul cannot pass through the gray fog. It seems that there is gray fog there, but it is the boundary of the soul land and the soul cannot enter.
Basically every monk has tried and failed to cross the border.
Zhou Qing asked the master of Shuiyue Peak and also checked the relevant classics in Xuandu Temple. There are many opinions about the gray fog of Soul Township.
Some people say that this is the embodiment of the human body's own potential, because every time the soul improves, the gray mist will become the material for the soul to grow.
Some people say that this is a gift from heaven and earth to living beings.
There are also theories that this is the barrier between the soul and the real world, or it may be the impact of the death of a certain mythological figure.
There are various opinions, and there is no final conclusion at all.
The traveling frog entered the gray fog and brought back three treasures to Zhou Qing from nowhere.
Is there really a way to other places in the gray fog?
Or is this just the magic of Goldfinger? The traveling frog entering the gray fog is just a way for it to disappear. It does not travel through the gray fog. Traveling and bringing back treasures have nothing to do with the gray fog?
Zhou Qing fell into doubts, and the thing that puzzled him the most was Shenting.
He is convinced that no matter in Qi, Zhou, Jin, or even other regions, there is no force called Shenting.
This refers to the forces that are qualified to be recorded by Xuandu Temple. Those forces that are like little shrimps are not counted.
Even if they are called Shenting, it is absolutely impossible to take out these treasures. They are not the source of these treasures, and it is impossible to grade the qualifications of people in the world.
Zhou Qing thought about the golden finger of [Drifting Wish Bottle] again, about Emperor Sui.
That time, Goldfinger crossed time.
So this force called Shenting was also an orthodoxy from a certain era in the past, but it no longer exists now?
Or...
Shenting is not the orthodoxy of Zhou Qing's world at all, but exists in other worlds? !
Either it’s a matter of time or space.
Zhou Qing was startled, looked down at the traveling frog, thought for a moment, and said:
“Let’s continue traveling.”
“Quack!”
The frog replenished its food reserves again, this time draining 90% of Zhou Qing's strength.
Then it jumped into the gray fog, and Zhou Qing followed it. Following the frog's route, he tried to enter the gray fog, but failed.
Goldfinger... really hides a lot of secrets.
