Chapter 232 The Emperor Goes to the Sea
Each ethnic group has its own epic stories.

Although they are all bragging, they are also mutually authenticating.

For example, the story of the Human Emperor patrolling the sea.

In the epic of the barbarians, the two stinky brothers, the Human Emperor and the Demon Lord, were driven into the sea by his barbarian king.

In the historical story of the demon race, our Demon Lord invited the Human Emperor to swim in the sea.

According to the ancient books of the human race, the Human Emperor ignored the Barbarian King and went to the sea only to chase the Demon Lord.

Although the three parties have different opinions, one thing is certain.

That was the last time the Human Emperor went to the sea.

When he went to the sea, the Human Emperor was accompanied by a group of followers, including not only his companions, but also a group of loyal hunting dogs.

Its name is Xunhai.

It looks like a dog, good at leaping forward, has red eyes and a golden tail, smiles when it sees people, and patrols the water, illuminating all directions.

There are many stories about patrolling sea hounds in "Miscellaneous Notes of the Human Emperor Overseas".

It can be summed up in four words.

Loyalty cannot be expressed in words.

In the story, the endings of these patrolling sea hounds are different. Some get lost, some protect the emperor from disaster, some go to the sea to fish, and some bite the enemy's heels.
Anyway, loyalty cannot be expressed in words!

Heiqu likes this story very much. Every once in a while, he would come to the library to read it again, refine the spirit, and use it as a role model for himself.

At this moment, Heiqu was squatting on the ground and reading "Legend of the Human Emperor".

Li Yueqi recalled Maomao's appearance. She couldn't remember whether he was kind or not, but it was true that he smiled at everyone he saw.

If Maomao is really the descendant of a patrol hound, then Heiqu has seen his idol, but...
Should I tell it?

The idol filter of our own Heiqu seems a bit heavy.

Li Yueqi has read her own reading notes on Heiquji. Heiqu has his own understanding and comments on some details of this story.

For example, the statement that it looks like a dog should be interpreted as it looks like a wolf according to Heiqu's unilateral unofficial historical research.

In Heiqu's understanding, the phrase "smile when you see someone" has a very complex meaning.

Not an ordinary smile.

It is three parts arrogance, three parts indifference, three parts wisdom, and one part nonchalant smile.

Heiqu is currently practicing this look, and has gotten pretty good at it.

Li Yueqi stepped forward and slapped Heiqu, which made her own wolf's eyes clear again. "Stop looking at me and go out for a walk with me."

After careful consideration, Li Yueqi did not tell Heiqu that Maomao was her idol. She was afraid that Heiqu's idol filter would be broken and he would not be able to accept the reality.

Although Zhang Ze's statement that Maomao was a patrol hound was one-sided, Li Yueqi always felt that Zhang Ze was right.

I don't know why, just a gut feeling.

Qianji Pavilion.

Zhang Ze looked at the information sent back by Li Yueqi, holding a copy of the Human Emperor Biography kept by the Sword Sect in his hand, and compared it repeatedly, then looked up at Maomao who was squatting in front of him.

The tail was indeed golden, but the eyes were a normal brown, not a weird red.

"Furry jump!"

Maomao tilted his head, then jumped perfunctorily.
Like a lump of iron, it doesn't look like it's good at jumping.

But Zhang Ze didn't give up. He took out a sausage and tempted Maomao, "Come on, Maomao, suck it."

Leading Maomao, Zhang Ze brought him to a new building.

Junior sister’s big villa.

Chen Qin used the large room given to her by her second sister as a base and expanded it into a large courtyard with all necessary facilities. She even reserved a specially designed experimental field for Lily.

That room was isolated using the cave-heaven technique and equipped with a variety of secret methods to ensure soundproofing and noise reduction, making it extremely safe.

A large pool was left next to the rockery in the yard for A'li, Rongrong and the others to play in the water.

Or play with magma.

As a sea patrol hound, Maomao should be a dog that is agile in water.

However, it is not.

Zhang Ze used sausages to lure Maomao to the middle of the pool, and then after finding the mechanism set by Lily, he activated the magic circle and released water into the pool.

You know what, Lily is really talented at making these useless things.

This array not only regulates the water temperature, but also the salinity and spiritual energy concentration. It would be a waste not to use it for your aquarium.

As the water level slowly rose, Maomao didn't care at first.

When the water level rose to its ankles, Maomao was still chewing the sausage quietly.

When the water level rose to its belly, Maomao frowned, feeling that things were not simple, and it chewed the sausage much faster.

When the water level reached its back, Maomao raised its head and began to flutter around.
It seems that it can't water?

But just as Zhang Ze was about to reach out to save the dog, Maomao finally swallowed the sausage, then let out a howl with a changed tone.

Then the whole dog jumped high out of the pool and flew into the sky.

You know what, he jumped really high.

Hearing this commotion, Lily and Chen Qin also walked out of the room. Just as they were about to ask, Maomao had already fallen down.

Maomao, whose fur was blown off, landed smoothly on the ground and then jumped into Lily's arms again.

At this time, Maomao had changed into another appearance. Except for the tail, the soft fur on its body had all turned from yellow to white, and it glowed with colorful light under the reflection of the sunlight.

Scared.

The eyes also turned red.

Stung by salt water.

Lily carried Maomao and coaxed her big dog like a child, "Be good, don't cry."

While coaxing him, he looked at Zhang Ze angrily, "Oi! Boss, why are you bullying my Maomao?"

Zhang Ze felt very wronged. Who would have thought that the patrol hound couldn't swim!

[Ruoshui, the patrolling sea hound, remember this—"A New Interpretation of the Legend of Dongzhou"]

There was obviously a huge discrepancy between the legend and the facts, but when Zhang Ze thought about it carefully, it seemed that Maomao really did not touch water.
As a good dog, Maomao has three good qualities: he doesn't bark randomly, he doesn't shed hair, and he keeps himself clean.

No cleaning is required, and no matter how dirty the place is, just shake it and the dog's hair will become clean and soft again.

It feels silky smooth to the touch and smells like sunshine.

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Zhang Ze could only explain the whole story. Fortunately, Maomao was also a good dog. After a brief consultation between Zhang Ze and Maomao, they finally reached a series of consensus.

Zhang Zefang, in accordance with the principles of honesty, trustworthiness, friendship and mutual assistance, compensated Mao Maofang with 500 kilograms of pork elbows, 800 sausages, and played with him for ten hours.
After the contract was signed, Zhang Ze and Maomao both put their fingerprints on it, and Zhang Ze also delivered the first batch of sausages ahead of schedule.

After getting the sausage, Maomao became heartless again. The white hair on his body turned golden again and circled around Zhang Ze.

While rubbing Maomao's belly, Zhang Ze took out the small walnut. He planned to tell Li Yueqi about his new discovery, but he received a call from Li Yueqi first.

Li Yueqi: Where is the strange beast you're talking about in Jishan? Do you have any more detailed clues?

After asking, another picture was sent, which showed lush green mountains.

To be honest, just like he didn't expect Maomao to be able to swim, Zhang Ze didn't expect Li Yueqi to move so quickly.
【Zhang Ze: Wait a minute, let me take a look.】

Jishan.

Li Yueqi directly skipped all the tedious procedures and used her own privileges to send and receive Zhang Ze's tasks in the mission hall in seconds.

Then he took his two natal spirit beasts, the shadow wolf Heiqu, and the spirit snake Qinghe, on a flying boat to Jishan near the Beast Taming Sect.

The beast Zhang Ze is looking for is called "蓑衣". [It has a body like a dead tree, hides in Jishan, has four arms and eight legs, and has a crocodile head and a horse tail.]

It sounds like a very magical thing, but Jishan is very big, and it would be troublesome to look for it by wandering around in the mountains, so I asked Zhang Ze if he had any more detailed clues.

After Zhang Ze unlocked the detailed settings of Maomao and Nightmare Lord, the system's clues about other strange beasts also became more detailed.

There is an additional paragraph under the description of the straw raincoat.

[The straw raincoat likes the sun during the day, seeks the cold at night, and hates fire]

After Zhang Ze sent out the new clue, Li Yueqi had to wait for a long time before receiving a new reply.

[Li Yueqi: Please wait a moment. I will help you test your Qianji Pavilion's new magical weapon.]

After that, there was silence for a long time, until the small walnut in Zhang Ze's hand became slightly hot, and then a new scene appeared again.

Little Walnut can now watch videos.

"Hi! Can you see it?" asked the spirit snake Qinghe.

The magic weapon was controlled by Qinghe and floated around it, broadcasting the surrounding scenes in real time like a camera, but it seemed that the other side could not see here. The video was one-way, and only Zhang Ze's voice could be heard from Li Yueqi's side.

It is obvious that this thing was made by Dandan, who is still in the Beast Taming Sect. It should be an improvement on the video transmission box that Lily made before.

A direct connection with Xiaohetao was completed without changing the cost.

At this time, Zhang Ze could already foresee the future application scenarios of Xiaohetao Live.

"My fellow Daoists, please pay attention! I'm going to show you how to bite a thousand machine thunder. If you like it, please click on the little red heart. I love you all."

"Live broadcast of secret places, real experience, what secrets does the ancient immortal tomb hold? Let's follow Xiao Chen to find out today."

"No need for 998, no need for 138, today I'm in charge, the new Manifestation Set is only 98! Take it home today!"

In short, Zhang Ze's mind went astray again, but this time it was not Li Yueqi's voice from Xiao Hetao that brought her back, but the softness behind her.

The little junior sister was lying on his back, her face close to his, looking at the small walnut in Zhang Ze's hand.

Lily stood on tiptoe, Maomao stood on his hind legs, and the man and the dog held Zhang Ze's arms on both sides like door gods, staring straight at the screen.

"Come to my room." Chen Qin said, who also felt that this posture was awkward.

After a while, three people and a dog sat on the ground. Each of them held a big soft pillow, and used their spiritual energy to control the objects, bringing the drinks to their mouths and slurping them.

Maomao lay on the ground, chewing on the sausage that Zhang Ze gave him as compensation, wagging his tail.

A crystal was floating in front of the few people. After Lily's simple operation, the image of the little walnut was transferred to the crystal.

It’s more comfortable to watch live broadcast on a big screen.

"What were you doing just now?"

Although Li Yueqi couldn't see what was happening in Jishan, her intuition told her that those people were definitely up to no good.

"We are looking up information and analyzing it for you." Zhang Ze took a bite of the peach and got down to business.

Jishan wasn't exactly the Beastmaster Sect's backyard, but more like their parking lot. Ever since the Beastmaster Sect was founded, it had been one of the Beastmaster Sect's team-building locations.

It has been explored countless times. Logically, there shouldn't be any unknown monsters that haven't been discovered, especially something like a straw raincoat that sounds so magical.

Just like there's no Loch Ness Monster in the toilet.

So if the system is not messing with people, there are only two possibilities.

One is related to the village. The dragon energy scattered outside Linglu Valley caused some monsters to revert to their ancestral form.

The second one is similar to the Nightmare Lord. They had been hiding before and only recently appeared near Jishan.

"Is there any place like a cave or underground cave in Jishan? It would be best if it is connected to a ground vein or underground river, and the area outside the cave is open or has tall trees."

"Yes, let me see."

The spirit snake Qinghe floated around Li Yueqi, and those silver magic weapons were also spinning in circles.

Now the spirit snake Qinghe has completely adapted to these magic weapons, and will not feel comfortable for a day without them. As for Heiqu, as a stubborn dog (wolf), he is a traditionalist, and believes that one must rely on oneself to cultivate immortality, so he does not have any magic weapons around him, and is squatting on the ground with a big sword in his mouth.

Ever since Heiqu learned to turn his shadow into hands, it has become difficult for Qinghe to bully Heiqu. But now with the help of the Qianji magic weapon, it has a new way to tease the wolf.

This is technological advancement.

But I won’t tease the wolf today because I have important things to do.

As Qinghe operated, the map of Jishan appeared in front of it. It rose into the air and compared the map in its mind.

After reading it, Qinghe came down and put his hand on Li Yueqi's shoulder and said.

"There's only one similar location. There's a cave on the southern slope of Jishan Mountain. Because of the underground river that nourishes the cave, the forest there is very lush."

Capturing monsters is different from fighting. The first thing required is caution and carefulness. Li Yueqi did not fly directly to the cave, but used the stealth method of the black channel to sneak towards there.

The communication between Zhang Ze and others was also changed from magic tools to more covert telepathic communication.

It should be good in theory, but it is a bit annoying to operate.

It was mainly because Zhang Ze and Lily kept whispering in their heads.

"Hey, do you think it might be hidden under that rock? Lily, give me the fruit."

"Here, I don't think so. Judging from the description of the straw raincoat, it must be quite large. I guess it might be lying on the mountain, or disguising itself as a tree."

"Brother, this is not delicious. By the way, where did you get all this information?"

"Uh, the Hundred Demon Sect, all the information is from that side. They are the ones causing trouble."

"What on earth are they doing?"

"Who knows? Maybe he's up to something again. Our Sect Master is watching right there, so he'll be fine."

"Yeah, my dad is the best."

"Hey, Boss Xiaoqin, look, isn't it right there?"

This was the first time Li Yueqi discovered that these three people could be so noisy when they got together.

"So annoying. I have to go back and ask Dandan to improve this magic weapon. At least it can be used to mute the microphone."

Walking out from the shadows, Li Yueqi concealed her cultivation and aura, and carefully observed her surroundings.

It was just past noon, and the warm sunshine made people feel very comfortable. The surroundings were quiet and there was nothing unusual.

There were no extra living creatures on the cliffs around the cave. Heiqu held the sword in his mouth and turned into a shadow, swimming around the cliffs, but found nothing.

Qinghe slowly released a drowsy poisonous fog, controlling the Thousand Machine Magical Instruments around him to illuminate the surroundings, and asked Zhang Ze and others to help with the advice.

Li Yueqi placed her hand on the tree trunk beside her and spread her spiritual sense, but found nothing. There was no sign of any living creature around.

But the next moment, the hand that was stroking the book cover stopped, and she noticed something strange.

Li Yueqi felt two identical depressions on the bark.

But before she could think about it, Zhang Ze's voice suddenly came to her mind.

"Overlord Body!"

Overlord Body, the Beast Taming Sect's physical training method, can slay evil and break the evil, Overlord's Golden Body.

The spiritual energy around Li Yueqi suddenly condensed and then released in an instant. The next moment, she disappeared from the spot and appeared on the rock wall.

Above where she had just stood, a "raincoat" was slowly falling, silently.

This 'straw raincoat' does not have any outward aura. If one closes one's eyes and scans it with spiritual sense, one cannot even detect its existence.

The pressure generated when using the Overlord Body just now did not have any effect on this thing.

This "蓑衣" is not a piece of clothing.

Looking closely, one can see that the gray-brown beasts, only the size of a thumb, with crocodile heads and horse tails, are pulling each other, with their claws connected, forming a gray "raincoat".

If she had been a step slower, this "raincoat" would have been draped over her.
