Lord of Puro

Chapter 660 Let’s Count Together
There was a white crane perched on Bai Miaosheng's head, and his crown had been pierced by one of the crane's feet.

Zhang Mankeng was shocked. He didn't know when this white crane came and whether it had any connection with the White Crane Gang.

After all, Bai Miaosheng is a cultivator on the cloud, and his physique should be very strong. He may not die even if his skull is scratched by someone.

Zhang Mankeng was still hoping that Bai Miaosheng could hold on a little longer, when suddenly the white crane leaped up, grabbed Bai Miaosheng's crown and flew up.

Bai Miaosheng, who had lost his crown, was still standing there, with three white crane feathers stuck in his head.

Zhang Mankeng no longer had any illusions. Bai Miao was in dire straits.

These feathers are the White Crane Gang's special weapon. If the feathers are inserted into the brain, it proves that the brain has been crushed into a pulp by the feathers. The feathers will continue to take root downwards, from the spine to the internal organs, penetrating one by one, leaving no part untouched.

The white crane was hovering above Zhang Mankeng's head. Zhang Mankeng didn't know whether he should guard against the white crane or Tan Jinxiao.

She wanted to make a mud ball to protect herself, but she felt it was futile. The mud ball was useful for Tan Jinxiao's technique, but it was useless for Bai He's technique.

She wanted to turn her body into mud so that she could be able to withstand the attacks of the white crane. Even if she was grabbed on the top of her head by the white crane, she could recover with her own skills.

But this trick cannot be used easily in front of Tan Jinxiao.

Once she turned herself into mud, Tan Jinxiao's golden juice and jade liquid might mix into her body. Once mixed with these things, it would be hard to say what she would look like after she recovered.

While Zhang Mankeng was still hesitating, Tan Jinxiao spoke up, "Mankeng, we have known each other for so many years. Although we are not close friends, it is fate that we met. Please listen to my advice.
Today, no matter how hard you fight, you can't survive. If you really want to save your life, quickly put away all your skills and surrender honestly, and I will spare your life."

Zhang Mankeng was silent for a moment and put away his technique.

The mud on the ground receded, and Tan Jinxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

If he and Bai Wusong join forces, they will definitely be able to take down Zhang Mankeng. But if Zhang Mankeng really fights hard, Liang Wucai will be standing under the mud waves, and Xiao Yeci and Juanzi will also be trapped in the mud and unable to get out. It is uncertain whether these people can survive.

Zhang Mankeng, who had learned the technique, lowered his head and knelt on the ground obediently: "Old Tan, I admit that I fell into your hands today. You decide how to deal with me!"

Tan Jinxiao shook his head and said, "Don't flatter me. You didn't lose to me, you lost to a master.
Good fellow, Bai Miaosheng asked you to come, and you came, and you came so quickly. If it weren't for the guidance of an expert, I would have really caught you off guard today!"

Bai Wusong transformed into a human form and came to Tan Jinxiao: "Old Tan, you should also put away your skills. It is really inconvenient to talk with such a huge gold mountain here."

Tan Jinxiao took Jinshan away. Hongjiao and Lanqiao knelt on the ground with the Daomaying. "Master Tan, we are willing to follow you in the future. You can do anything you ask us to do."

"Really? You're giving me face? Then I can't neglect you." Tan Jinxiao waved his hand, and a piece of golden juice fell from the sky.

The Jiaoqiao Daomaying Camp, Lanqiao, Hongjiao and a dozen other members were all wrapped in the golden juice. None of them escaped and in an instant, they were corroded into a mass of meat paste.

Tan Jinxiao took a handkerchief, wiped his hands, looked at the blood and flesh on the ground, sneered and said: "You have done all kinds of evil in the underground and on the ground. How come Tiesunping has produced scum like you!"

Bai Wusong sighed and said, "Old Tan, next time you encounter something like this, don't waste your money. I have another way."

Tan Jinxiao looked at Zhang Mankeng and said, "Mankeng, you saw it just now. Not everyone can surrender. I will spare your life, but you have to do something serious for me.

Bai Miaosheng has a deep foundation in Tu City and has a lot of power inside and outside the underground city. I plan to clean up this group of people. Let's see how much effort you can give?"

Zhang Mankeng knew clearly that if he didn't agree to this, he would die, and the incident of Daomaying was a ready-made example.

"I promise. I'll do whatever you ask me to do. I just want to ask you for something."

Tan Jinxiao nodded and said, "You talk, I'm listening."

Zhang Mankeng looked at Bai Miaosheng and said, "Let me bury him. No need for a tombstone or a coffin. Just bury him."

Tan Jinxiao sighed, "You really have no memory. How many times have you suffered at his hands? Have you forgotten?"

Zhang Mankeng lowered his head and said, "I am cheap. I will be cheap to him for the last time."

She found a secluded place, dug a hole with mud, and buried Bai Miao alive.

Tan Jinxiao asked Bai Wusong privately: "Xiaosongzi, I heard from Miss Xiao that you sent some good things to the friend of Master Qi."

Bai Wusong nodded and said, "The things were delivered, but they were not sent by me. I didn't see what they were."

Tan Jinxiao said: "The things are not important, the key is the person. What does Qi Ye's friend look like? Have you seen him?"

Bai Wusong shook his head: "I didn't see her. This friend never showed up, but we heard her voice. Although she was a woman, she spoke in a domineering manner and ordered a lot of things. We had to do them."

Tan Jinxiao said with a serious expression: "It's not called being overbearing, it's called being naturally majestic! I'm not an ordinary person. There are a thousand benefits to being able to work for her. There is absolutely no loss at all. Just be happy."

Bai Wusong was startled: "Do you know her?"

"I don't know her. I just heard her talk and act and thought she was amazing. Xiaosongzi, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you came too late today. I almost lost my life because of this."

Bai Wusong was also helpless: "What can I do? This is what the friend of Master Qi told me. She said that if I came too early, Bai Miaosheng would definitely leave. If I had shown up near Yuxiang Island one step ahead of time, today's battle would not have been fought."

"That's right, you have to listen to the words of the master, Songzi, what are you going to do next?"

"I have to go clean up the White Crane Gang's inner gate. You go to Tushi, and it happens to be on my way. I'm just worried that the boss will come back, and I'm afraid we can't defeat him if we rely on just a few of us."

Tan Jinxiao didn't care too much: "If the boss had seen Qi Ye's friend, he might not dare to come back."

……

The record player transferred the soul to Zhao Xiaowan's puppet and completed the final few steps of debugging with his dexterous ten fingers.

The hidden bridge gun was repaired, and Zhao Xiaowan quickly called Li Banfeng: "My dear husband, please come back quickly, I have fixed it here."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before the man said, "My dear, wait two more days."

Zhao Xiaowan vaguely heard some music and asked, "Husband, where are you?"

"I'm on White Peach Island."

White Peach Island?
I seem to have heard of this place before, but I can't remember where it is at the moment.

"My husband, what are you doing on the island? Why are you panting so hard?"

"My lady, I am dancing. It is a strenuous activity."

"What kind of dance do you do?"

"White Peach Dance!"

"Is the peach white?"

"It's white, with thin skin and tender meat, so white and sweet! Madam, wait for me for two days, I will be back soon."

"It's white and sweet. Do you eat it with your mouth?"

"My lady, I'm talking about the real peach..."

The record player hung up the phone, turned around in anger and kicked Ban Fengbing away: "This heartless lunatic, if you have the guts, don't come back for the rest of your life!"

Ban Feng Yi pulled Ban Feng Bing out from the wall and said, "How many times have I told you to stay away from that crazy woman?"

……

Li Banfeng was really dancing on Baitao Island, he didn't do anything else.

There are five islands in Baishuan County, namely White Peach, Yellow Peach, Flat Peach, Nectarine and Water Peach.

These days, Li Banfeng traveled to all five islands and ate all five kinds of peaches.

These five types of peaches have different tastes. Yellow peaches are juicy, flat peaches are firm, nectarines are delicate, nectarines are sweet, and white peaches are the best, with a plump and pleasing shape and a fragrant and varied taste.

These five kinds of peaches are often transported back and forth among the five islands in order to change the taste of the islanders.

Normally they only have peaches to eat. This does not refer to fruits, but food. In Baishun County, which has five islands, the only food produced is peaches.

The soil here is not suitable for growing anything except peaches. They tried many seeds, but none of them survived.

There are no fish in the sea around here, not even a piece of kelp to be found.

Some people wanted to raise livestock here, but were rejected by the islanders.

Because peaches are for human consumption and cannot be fed to animals.

The peaches are delicious, but after eating them for so many days in a row, Li Banfeng is really tired of them. It is hard to imagine that the people on these five islands have been eating them for their entire lives.

Li Banfeng asked them if they had ever considered going somewhere else to have a look. Even going out to fish was better than eating peaches all the time. There were no fish here, but maybe there were some somewhere else. After all, the sea was so big.

Ling Baitao was still wearing the loose white shirt. While tidying up the peach tree, she answered Li Banfeng: "You are right, there are indeed fish, but they will not come out at this time."

“When will it come out?”

"When the entrance to Neizhou opens," Ling Baitao handed Li Banfeng a pot of Baitao wine, "you will see fish then. Unfortunately, we don't have time to fish then."

They saw the fish but had no time to catch them, so what were they doing?
When asked further, Ling Baitao did not answer.

The residents of the five islands all have similar characteristics. They are reluctant to talk much to people they are not familiar with. And because of their isolation, their way of expression and language habits are also very different from Li Banfeng's.

The music started, and it was time for the White Peach Conference again.

Old man Chen played the huqin very loudly and with great vigor. With the bow, he managed to pull out the instrument with the momentum of putting an arrow on the string.

The girl and the boy walked to the fire in the middle of the open space with smiles on their faces.

A young man named A Quan walked up to Li Banfeng and asked for some wine.

Li Banfeng took out a wine gourd. The wine in the gourd was not brewed from white peaches, but a good wine from Yaowanggou. To A Quan, the taste was very fresh.

He took a big sip, returned the gourd to Li Banfeng, gave Li Banfeng a pot of white peach wine, and smiled at Li Banfeng.

He brought a girl named Aju, stretched out her hand to Li Banfeng and invited him to dance with her.

This dance is not easy to perform. Shaking the peach requires technical skills. Whether it is the peach in the hand or the peach under the waist, if you really want to shake it, it requires a lot of skills.

Li Banfeng has a good foundation in dancing, but compared with the smooth and natural movements of the islanders, his movements are always a little sluggish and exaggerated.

Just like the residents of these five islands all knew that a stranger had come. This stranger was quite friendly and they regarded Li Banfeng as a friend, but there was still a gap between them and their own people.

After dancing for half an hour, Ling Baitao asked Li Banfeng: "We have a friend from another place here who comes here often.
He told us that a friend named Li Qi went to the underground city. If he comes to White Falcon County one day, we should try to be kind to him. Is that person he was talking about you?"

"It's me." Li Banfeng nodded.

"Since it's you, then drink a few more glasses." Ling Baitao poured another glass of wine for Li Banfeng.

After the White Peach Conference ended, the residents of White Peach Island returned to their homes.

Their home is on the trees. The peach trees are very thick, but they have died. They use branches and trunks to weave into a house. There is not much space in the house. Li Banfeng went there once and found that the family lived in a very crowded house, which was obviously not suitable for outsiders to stay overnight.

Li Banfeng didn't need them to arrange accommodation for him. He usually slept in his personal residence. Tonight he drank too much white peach wine and felt a little hot, so Li Banfeng wandered around the island.

Based on his experience over the past few days, Li Banfeng used peach trees to divide Baitao Island into three areas.

One is a residential area, which is full of dead peach trees.

One is the grain area, where there are large areas of living peach trees.

There is also an activity area, where there are no peach trees.

Other islands follow the same pattern, with slight differences in size and distribution.

Walking into the grain area, the peach trees were lush and leafy, and the refreshing peach fragrance made Li Banfeng dizzy.

Li Banfeng sat down against a peach tree. He wanted to rest for a while, but suddenly he felt a slight pain on his back.

what?
Li Banfeng turned around and looked at the bark carefully for a moment.

He saw a stick embedded in the bark.

It's not uncommon to see wooden sticks growing out of the bark. It might be an extra branch. But why are these wooden sticks growing so neatly?

Is this a wooden stick?
There are actually small holes on this wooden stick.

Is this a flute?
Why does a flute grow on the peach tree bark?
This thing is not that new. Li Banfeng had seen bamboos that could play the flute in Xindi.

He looked at the bark of the peach tree carefully. The patterns on the bark looked somewhat special, as fine and dense as feathers.

This tree was so strange that Li Banfeng found an open space, lay on the ground and looked up at the mottled rocks above the tree canopy.

There is endless sea all around, but if you look up not far away, you can see the rocks on the top of the cave. This is the most difficult thing for Li Banfeng to adapt to. Under the cover of the rocks, no matter how vast the ocean is, Li Banfeng will have an indescribable sense of oppression.

Fortunately, the shapes of these rocks are not monotonous. After years of erosion by water vapor, they present a variety of shapes and appearances.

There is a stalactite in front, like icicles in early spring, as if it will fall from the top of the cave at any time.

This is not a joke. Lao Tan said that this kind of thing really happened in the sea market. Stalactites suddenly fell from the roof and pierced the entire ship.

These stalactites are about to reach my head. Should I hide?
There's no need to hide. I'm a travel cultivator on the second level of the cloud. How could I be hit by a stalactite?
It seems that there are bats flying around in this stalactite.

It doesn't look like a bat, but a fish, like a manta ray.

I have seen this thing on my phone and on TV. This kind of fish is very common in the sea...

So, is this kind of fish also common in caves?

Li Banfeng sat up, half sober.

Why do fish swim in the stalactites in the cave? Li Banfeng felt that this needed a relatively reasonable explanation. In the new land, Li Banfeng had seen fish that could live on dry land, and these fish were considered strange, but it was the first time he had seen a fish flying in the air.

Li Banfeng explained to himself that the stalactites just now passed by too quickly and he did not see some details clearly.

The stalactites passed by too fast...

Li Banfeng was completely sober.

Stalactites did pass overhead, and there were a lot of rocks at the top of the cave that were constantly moving overhead.

These stones are the ceiling of the cave. Why did the cave ceiling move? This question also needs a reasonable explanation.

After some thought, Li Banfeng decided to first determine one question: is it the cave that is moving, or is it the island that is moving?

Li Banfeng ran to the beach. Before he could find the answer to the question, he saw the entrance of the cave.

From the time Li Banfeng entered the underground city, until today, this was the first time he saw the cave entrance.

The cave entrance was just ahead, approaching Li Banfeng.

At first, Li Banfeng was not sure that this was the entrance to the cave, because he could not see the edge of the cave and could only see the light outside the cave.

The moment the island passed through the hole, he saw the sky he had not seen for a long time.

Judging from the brightness of the light, it should be night time now, but he had been in the dark for so long that even the light of the night was blinding to him.

Li Banfeng did not see any stars in the sky, he only saw schools of fish swimming in the sky.

He remembered Ling Baitao's words. The moment he saw the fish, it meant that the entrance to Neizhou was opened.

Li Banfeng ran to the residential area, whistling all the way. He had to remind the islanders.

Many residents on the island have woken up. They squat on the trees and look up at the sky.

The island owner Ling Baitao was not on the tree. He squatted on the ground, looked up at the sky, and asked Li Banfeng: "My friend from another place, do you really want to go to Neizhou?"

Li Banfeng nodded: "I do."

"You have to be prepared. When a vortex appears in the sky, you have to fly as deep as possible into the vortex. That is the entrance to Neizhou."

The school of fish swimming in the sky became more and more agitated. Ling Baitao reminded Li Banfeng: "The vortex is coming."

A gust of cold wind blew in his face, and the school of fish swam rapidly in a clockwise direction. Through their swimming trajectory, Li Banfeng basically determined the location of the whirlpool.

Ling Baitao said: "Now that you have found the center of the vortex, just fly up. We will definitely send you our blessings, but we don't have time to send you wine, singing and dancing now."

In the residential area, all the residents on the island took out their weapons and were ready.

Li Banfeng asked Ling Baitao: "What are you going to do?"

Ling Baitao said: "Fight."

"Who to fight with."

"I'm from Nevada."

"You have to fight every time Neizhou opens an entrance?"

Ling Baitao shook her head: "Nine times out of ten, there is no need to fight, but the remaining time may be a fight to the death."

As he spoke, something was slowly falling from the center of the vortex.

The center of the vortex was very far away, which gave Li Banfeng a visual illusion. He thought that the thing was very small, probably a creature like a shell or clam.

From far to near, from small to large, Li Banfeng gradually saw the shape of the thing.

A round ball, a very regular khaki ball.

The thing kept getting closer, and in less than a minute, the fist-sized sphere turned into a behemoth with a diameter of more than ten meters.

"It's a hornet's nest!" Ling Baitao looked solemn. This was obviously not the result he wanted to see. He warned Li Banfeng, "Avoid this hornet's nest and fly upwards, then you can enter Neizhou. Be careful!"

As Ling Baitao spoke, her back gradually bulged, and a pair of wings with white feathers stretched out from her wide clothes.

At the same time, a worm with a metallic luster fell out of the sphere, twisting its body and falling to the ground.

Ling Baitao flapped its wings and took off into the air.

The worm was several times larger than an adult's body. It had just emerged from a hornet's nest and seemed not to have adapted to the environment yet. Its body twisted and squirmed in the air.

Ling Baitao caught the worm in mid-air, grabbed the worm's body with both hands, and tore it apart with all her might.

In the blink of an eye, the worm's body was torn into pieces by the Lingbai Tao, and the remains that fell to the ground were still wriggling, emitting clouds of hot white mist.

Hundreds and thousands of worms fell into the sphere.

The inhabitants of the tree spread their white wings and flew into the air like white falcons to attack the worms.

The remains of the worm kept falling to the ground. A complete worm avoided the islanders' obstruction and landed near Li Banfeng.

Whoosh!

The worm raised its body and spit out a cloud of steam towards Li Banfeng.

Where did this ball of steam come from? Li Banfeng looked for a long time but couldn't find the exit of the steam.

It had no mouth, and Li Banfeng couldn't even find its face because it had no ears, eyes, mouth or nose.

The worm quickly crawled towards Li Banfeng, moving at an astonishing speed.

Li Banfeng dodged the worm's trajectory, and the worm twisted its body and made a sharp sound towards Li Banfeng.

"Squeak!"

The sharp sound caused Li Banfeng's eardrum to hurt severely and his body felt numb.

Is this a sound repair technique?

What if I'm afraid of you?

"Hua Ya Ya!" Li Banfeng also roared at the worm. The worm was not affected at all. It turned around and continued to attack Li Banfeng.

It’s amazing that he can actually withstand the wife’s voice repair skills.

But then he thought, his wife was not at home, and Li Banfeng could not use the deep courtyard to practice his skills.

That shout just now was pure nonsense.

The worm rushed over again, and this time, it had eyes, but they were not on its head but on its body.

On his fat body, more than a hundred eyelids opened at the same time, and the eyeballs rolled and locked onto Li Banfeng.

Iron hooks and iron rods stretched out from the pupils of some eyeballs and pounced towards Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng had no intention of fighting with it. He simply drew out his Tang sword and chopped at the worm's head.

"Every strike of the sword will take the enemy's head!" Tang Dao was unambiguous and chopped off the worm's head with one strike.

But the worm's body was still moving. It could still accurately sense Li Banfeng's position and continuously attack Li Banfeng with an iron rod and an iron hook.

The head is not the vital part of this insect.

The hook caught on the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.

Taking advantage of the mud blurring his eyes, dozens of iron spikes in the worm's eyes stabbed towards Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng dodged the iron spike and swung the Tang sword again, splitting the worm vertically along the midline of its body.

The two halves of the body squirmed for a moment and then stopped making any sound, with hot steam splashing everywhere.

Boom!

Li Banfeng turned around with his Tang sword in hand and saw dozens of complete worms falling to the ground.

While the residents of the island were still trying to intercept the worms in mid-air, the worms that fell to the ground began to attack the peach trees on the ground.

The branches and leaves of the peach tree grew rapidly, and the ends of the branches fell to the ground, forming a barrier to resist the attack of the worms.

The islanders had no time to pay attention to the worms that fell to the ground. They tried their best to intercept them in the air.

This tactic is correct. These worms can exert powerful combat power after landing. The best way to deal with them is to try to intercept them in the air and prevent them from landing. If people are dispersed to fight on the ground, the number of worms landing will only increase.

But the cost of doing so is also obvious. The worms that fall to the ground will attack the peach trees, and these peach trees are the only source of food in Baishou County.

This was the choice that Baishun County had to make when facing a powerful enemy, but the situation was different today, as there was Li Banfeng on the ground.

He was not in a hurry to go up to the sky, but fought with the worms directly on the ground.

A worm tore open the branches and leaves of the peach tree and was about to attack the trunk, but was chopped in half by Li Banfeng with a knife.

After three slashes with the Tang sword, he took a break. The projector appeared from his pocket, hovering in the air, and used the withering technique to kill a worm.

The pendulum and sickle worked together to shred a worm into pieces.

A man fell heavily to the ground holding a worm.

The man's wings were broken and his body was covered with scars from the iron hooks.

Li Banfeng rushed forward and chopped the worm with a broken path, and the seriously injured man stood up from the ground.

Li Banfeng recognized him.

His name is A Quan. Just now, he invited Li Banfeng to dance with him at the Baitao Conference.

He likes the wine from Yaowanggou very much.

Li Banfeng pulled off the wine gourd to treat his injury and brought the medicinal wine to A Quan's mouth. A Quan wanted to drink it, but he didn't.

Jiuhulu said to Li Banfeng: "Little brother, he is no longer viable."

A Quan stood upright and smiled at Li Banfeng.

His feet dug into the mud and his skin cracked inch by inch.

The broken wings wrapped around his body, and the messy feathers were embedded in his torso one by one.

His hair grew rapidly and soon covered his face.

Two worms fell behind Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng turned around and used Tapo Wanchuan to kick the two worms into meat paste.

When he turned around to look again, A Quan had disappeared, and a lush fruit tree appeared where he had just stood.

boom!
A girl fell from the sky, her body covered in blood, but she still struggled to stand up.

Her name was A'ru. She had a great figure and Li Banfeng remembered that she was always the lead dancer in the group of girls.

An old man fell to the ground and not only broke his wing, but also his leg.

The old man's surname was Chen. He was very strong when playing the erhu. He took the erhu from his back, supported himself on the ground, and stood up with difficulty.

After he turned into a tree, the huqin was embedded in the trunk, with the strings exposed outside the bark.

boom!Boom!

From time to time, people fell from the sky.

Li Banfeng killed all the worms that fell on the ground as quickly as possible, flew into the air, and killed the worms together with everyone else.

After more than ten minutes, most of the worms were killed in the air, and the worms that fell on the ground were also cleaned up.

The huge "hornet's nest" was silent, and Li Banfeng asked Ling Baitao: "Is this battle over?"

Ling Baitao shook her head: "It's still early. We don't know when the next batch of insects will come out, and we don't know how many insects there are in this hive.
If you want to enter Neizhou, you can fly in now, but since Neizhou has sent troops, you must be more careful after entering."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "This matter is not urgent. Right now, I have something urgent to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Ling Baitao was stunned. He heard a hint of coldness in Li Banfeng's tone, but Li Banfeng's expression was very calm.

Li Banfeng looked at the "hornet's nest" and said, "I'll go in and count how many bugs there are. You guys help me count from outside."

Ling Baitao's eyes widened: "Are you crazy?"

"No, I have a medical certificate. The doctor says I'm not crazy. You must remember this and count carefully."

Li Banfeng lowered the brim of his hat and flew towards the "hornet's nest".

The moment he entered the hive, he cut his palm and summoned the shadow.
