At the sight of the heavy metal crossbow in Zhang Tie's hand, he wanted to walk towards him.
Zhang Tie pointed at a place over 10 m away with the heavy metal crossbow in his hand. "If you're a pioneer, you should know the rules of pioneers. Where do you sleep? There's some dry firewood in the mountain cave. You can light a fire by yourself. We don't know each other. Additionally, it's in the wild. In case of any accident, you'd better not be too close to me. I'm timid and would even sleepwalk when I'm asleep. It would be bad if I did something extreme!"
Hearing Zhang Tie's words, that man's smile became slightly stiff. Closely after that, he revealed a smile once again, "You're right. That's what I should do!" After saying this, that man picked up some dry firewood and licorice over 10 m away from Zhang Tie. After that, he took out a windproof lighter and started to light a fire.
Although that man was far away from Zhang Tie, he faintly blocked the entrance of the mountain cave. If Zhang Tie wanted to leave the mountain cave, he had to pass by him.
When that man started to light a fire, the meat of the huge deep-sea monster that Zhang Tie had skewered with the metal crossbow had already turned golden. Drops of oil flew out of the meat and dripped onto the fire, causing the flames to rise and causing a sizzling sound.
The alluring aroma in the mountain cave grew stronger.
During this process, Zhang Tie and that man just looked at each other, causing the atmosphere in the mountain cave to be a bit weird.
After the meat was roasted, Zhang Tie picked it up and slightly blew it before starting to eat it. Even though he was eating the meat, he didn't put down the heavy metal crossbow; instead, he just put it on his knees and legs. The muzzle of the metal crossbow was still pointing at that place 10 m away.
"Little brother. What meat are you roasting? It smells good! "That man licked his lips.
"Hmm, it's a kind of fish that I got from the river outside today. It looks good!" Zhang Tie casually made up a story. While talking, he ate until his mouth was covered with grease. The meat of a huge deep-sea monster was really delicious. Zhang Tie felt that his stomach was warm and comfortable. His tiredness and hunger gradually faded away in the warmth. It seemed that the head chef on the Aurora Airboat was right. The qi and blood contained in the meat of the huge deep-sea monster were very beneficial to human bodies.
"I haven't eaten anything today. Little brother, can you share some of your roasted meat with me?" that man with golden teeth asked with a smile.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, the roasted meat is just enough for me. I don't have any spare meat for you. If you want to eat, you could get some food outside. As a pioneer, it should not be difficult for you to get some food! "Zhang Tie lowered his head and started to chew. He didn't show any respect to her at all. Zhang Tie didn't even throw a glance at that guy.
Hearing Zhang Tie's words, the corner of the golden-toothed guy's eye twitched. Closely after that, he revealed a smile as he took out a piece of jerky and started to roast it above the fire. At the same time, he sighed with emotions, "Alas, I have to eat what I've brought! But my food doesn't smell as good as yours. Your meat smells like a top-quality cuttlefish that could only be found in the deep sea! It's my first time to hear about cuttlefish in the freshwater river! "
Zhang Tie also revealed a smile as he rapidly ate up the last piece of meat. After that, he wiped his mouth and put away the metal crossbow bolt, "It's nothing strange. Perhaps some stupid cuttlefish swam up from the sea and was encountered by me! It's not far from the sea... "
"Cuttlefish are not stupid. Actually, they are the fiercest and smartest hunters in the sea, especially those cuttlefish that have completed mutation and evolution. If they really swam up from the sea to this river, then in most cases, they must be chasing after their prey... " They must be chasing after their prey... "Golden Teeth smiled as he watched Zhang Tie. His teeth reflected a metallic light in the flames, making Zhang Tie feel chilly." Do you know what those smart and powerful squids would do when they catch their prey? Hehe, they rarely kill their prey immediately. Instead, they enjoy the whole process of killing their prey. First, they wrap the prey tightly with their tentacles so that they can't move. Little by little, they use their stomach acid to corrode the prey's limbs. Then, they swallow the prey bit by bit. Some prey can be eaten by a squid for a whole week without dying! "
"Oh, really..." Zhang Tie also revealed a smile, "Besides being disgusting and shameful, I don't think those cuttlefish are as sharp as you described. Although some cuttlefish look huge and powerful, as long as their tentacles are chopped off, they would not be able to jump up anymore. Take this time, I saw a sword sage chopping off the tentacles of a huge deep-sea monster one after another on the liner. Finally, that huge monster became a pile of dead flesh floating in the sea!"
"You mean Samaranth, the Stars and Moons Sword Sage?"
"Yes! At that moment, as I fought the sea monster together with him, I helped him by shooting the sea monster with the crossbow bolt at the critical moment. Therefore, I got acquainted with him! Mr. Samaranth felt that I was very brave. But to be honest, I'm really audacious... "Zhang Tie said with a relaxed and honored look.
"You know Samaranth?" When he said this, the golden tooth didn't smile anymore as he gazed at Zhang Tie tightly. It seemed that he was trying to identify whether Zhang Tie was lying or not.
Zhang Tie just watched the golden tooth calmly. He even broke off a small wooden thorn from a dry seabuckthorn twig beside him and started to pick his teeth casually. Squinting at the golden tooth, Zhang Tie said, "Is it strange? You will see him soon. When you see him, you can tell him about the story about cuttlefish. Mr. Samaranth hates cuttlefish the most. I think he would be interested in such a story!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the golden tooth rolled his eyes at once as he glanced at the entrance of the cave, "Hoho, your story is very interesting. Pitifully, everybody knows that the Stars and Moons Sword Sage is going to the Haidela Glacier Crack in the south of Ice and Snow Wilderness for the piece of God's Star!" He's going to the Haidela Glacier Crack in the south of Ice and Snow Wilderness! "
"Really? Then let's make a bet!" Zhang Tie's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Golden Tooth in disdain. "If a Sword Sage's whereabouts could be known by everyone, is he still a Sword Sage? Zhang Tie just watched the golden tooth with a despising look, "If the trace of a sword sage could be known by everybody, is he still a sword sage? Mr. Samaranth is going to the Haidela Glacier Crack. However, before that, he needs to prepare something in Grey Hill.
"What?" the golden tooth asked unconsciously.
"You don't need to know that! Perhaps, if you think that Mr. Samaranth would treat you politely, you can ask him right now! "Zhang Tie said as he took out his pocket watch and threw a glance at it. "It's almost time. The sword sage will arrive at any time. Just wait here for a short while!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the golden tooth's face turned blue and white. He completely lost his composure as he looked at the entrance of the cave, then at Zhang Tie. A brutal and vicious light flashed across his eyes. However, he became a bit hesitant as he lost his composure at once.
The golden tooth suddenly sprung up from the ground as he stared at Zhang Tie with a murderous look, "How do you know that I came from Demon Snake Island?"
"Nonsense, please use your squid-like brain. Look at the current situation, will pioneers still stay on Grey Hill?" Zhang Tie stared at "Golden Tooth" as if he was looking at an idiot. Zhang Tie's words were very sharp as he pointed at the golden tooth with the heavy metal crossbow, "If not because I could help Mr. Samaranth here and Mr. Samaranth promised to take me to the Haidela Glacier Crack, I would not stay in this sh * tty place. As a pioneer, I want to flatter the sword sage. What the f * ck are you doing here? Is there a sword sage who needs your help? "
"That's all?"
"I told you that you're as stupid as a squid-like brain..." Zhang Tie sneered, "Any pioneer below LV 7 would not dare to ask for a night's stay in a mountain cave after seeing a stranger with such a heavy metal crossbow in his hand. However, you still dare to come in. It means that you think that you're more powerful than me and this heavy metal crossbow is not threatening to you at all. It's impossible for a pioneer with such a level and battle strength not to go to the Haidela Glacier Crack at this moment! "
"It doesn't mean anything. Perhaps I'm a pioneer. Even if I don't go to the Haidela Glacier Crack, I might stay here for other reasons!" The golden tooth didn't believe in Zhang Tie's words.
"Even if you think that you're more powerful than me, what about after you lie down and fall asleep? As long as you fall asleep, no matter how powerful you are, I only need to pull the trigger to kill you when you fall asleep. You would not have a chance to respond at all. Therefore, when you said that you wanted to stay in the mountain cave for one night with a stranger with a heavy metal crossbow, you were lying! "Zhang Tie sneered," Nobody with a normal mind could rest one night in such an environment. Perhaps you really wanted to stay here for one night, but you had to kill me or confirm that I had no ability to resist you.
Zhang Tie sneered, "Nobody in his right mind could rest one night in such an environment. Perhaps you would really rest one night here; however, you have to kill me or confirm that I have no ability to resist you; instead, you have to point a crossbow at me and ask you to rest one night here. Therefore, since you entered the mountain cave and said that you wanted to stay one night here, I've got two unspoken meanings: first, you've confirmed that I could not threaten you tonight; second, you've already known my general battle strength. Therefore, you're definitely here to harm me and don't plan to let me live past tonight. Besides the b * stards in Demon Snake Island, I have no other enemy here at all. The others don't know my situation as well as you do. Who else but members of Demon Snake Island could confirm that you want to harm me the moment you meet me without worrying about my revenge? You just wanted to kill a person, why did you make it so troublesome? "
Gritting his teeth, Golden Teeth stared at Zhang Tie. He had not imagined that Zhang Tie's performance was full of loopholes from the beginning. It's just like the sky above my head! " Saying this, Zhang Tie revealed a smile, "Oh, guess whether I'm delaying time or not. Am I striving for the second result? "
Dawson became scared. He instantly understood something. He instantly flew back to the entrance of the mountain cave. After throwing a glare at Zhang Tie, he turned around and wanted to escape. However, Zhang Tie directly pulled the trigger towards him and started to attack him. Watching Zhang Tie's bolts flying towards him, Dawson twisted his body in a weird way and dodged the first wave of bolts.
Zhang Tie kept chasing after him as he kept shooting with his heavy metal crossbow. It seemed that he wanted to keep Dawson here or entangle him.
The bolts shot by the heavy metal crossbow could barely reach the speed of sound. Of course, they could not threaten a LV 10 strong fighter. Only after a few flashes, Dawson had already been dozens of meters away. Closely after that, a furious voice drifted over, "Wait for me, brat..."
"Pah..." Zhang Tie, who had chased him out of the cave, spat a mouthful of saliva towards Dawson's back as he stomped his feet and swore, "You b * stards who only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong. If you're not a coward, come and kill me. How could you be scared off by a crossbow?
In the distance, Dawson was so furious that he almost spat out blood. However, he didn't stop; instead, he disappeared into the woods hundreds of meters away.
Not until Dawson disappeared into the woods in the distance did Zhang Tie feel a bit wet and cold on his back after being blown by the evening wind.
Zhang Tie recognized that Dawson came from Demon Snake Island at once. As for the words "Stars and Moons Sword Sage", they were all fabricated by him.
Actually, since Dawson entered the mountain cave, Zhang Tie's back had been covered with cold sweat. He had not imagined that he could be blocked by a member of Demon Snake Island in such a short time. A guy whose overall strength was slightly higher than common LV 9 was blocked by a LV 10 guy in a place where there was little space for him to move. Zhang Tie knew that he might not stand 2 minutes if he really started a fight with Dawson.
When he was in Dragon Cave, Zhang Tie had already experienced the gap between him and a LV 10 strong fighter. Although he had made some progress during this period and had even eaten a seven-strength fruit of iron-teeth hyena, his overall strength was still too different. Therefore, he had no chance to win the fight.
At that time, when these whims flashed across Zhang Tie's mind, Zhang Tie determined to take the initiative; otherwise, he would die tonight. When he couldn't rely on his fighting strength, he could only rely on his brain.
Thankfully, Zhang Tie won. He fabricated a story about Stars and Moons Sword Sage. Even he himself believed it. Plus his calm and perfect performance, he finally scared Dawson away.
Of course, Dawson didn't leave completely. Zhang Tie knew that such a figure would never be scared away by his words. He just watched from afar, hiding his qi somewhere in the woods in the distance to confirm whether he was telling the truth or not. If he found that Stars and Moons Sword Sage didn't show up or Zhang Tie intended to escape, he would show up right away.
Watching the broad river outside the mountain cave, Zhang Tie revealed a smile. Now that he knew that he was being chased, of course, he had made some preparations. Choosing such a riverside as his foothold was the best guarantee for his safety.
Before leaving, Zhang Tie determined to give that guy a heavy blow. This blow was not related to his body; however, it could influence that guy's spirit and psychological state. As a result, he could not remain calm in front of Zhang Tie in the future. All in all, the more crazy that guy was, the more likely Zhang Tie would defeat him.
Watching the direction where Dawson left, Zhang Tie burst out into laughter on purpose. He even rocked his chest and stamped his feet...
In such a night, Zhang Tie's laughter could be heard from miles away. Zhang Tie knew that Dawson could hear his laughter and see what he was going to do.
"B * stard from Demon Snake Island, you're called Dawson, right? You're even more timid than a mouse. I fabricated a bullsh * t about Stars and Moons Sword Sage. How could you be a killer? Hurry back to your mom's breast for a few more days, hahahaha..." Zhang Tie shouted towards the surroundings, "I know you're nearby. You must not have left. You trash, coward and coward. Besides your golden teeth, can you find another hard part on your body? Your brain is like that of a squid. However, even the most common squid is 10,000 times bolder and 10 times smarter than you. I really don't know whether your brain is filled with sh * t or paste. Remember to be smarter next time. Don't be an idiot and believe in what others say. Just wait here for the Stars and Moons Sword Sage. This uncle will not accompany you anymore. Just wait, I will chop off your head before long!"
After saying this, Zhang Tie jumped into the river. Besides a splash, Zhang Tie didn't hear any more sound.
The river flowed slowly, and only the two bright moons in the sky looked like two smiling faces, watching everything with a mocking expression …
After more than 10 seconds, a roar drifted from the woods in the distance. Dawson reappeared. He rushed to the place where Zhang Tie jumped into the water. After observing it carefully, he wanted to jump in too; however, he hesitated for a second. After a short while, he uttered a furious roar, "Peter, I will peel off your skin..."
...
Half an hour later, Zhang Tie came to the bank of the river which was covered with cobblestones 7/0 km away from where he jumped into the river. At this moment, even if Dawson was here, he might not believe that someone could swim 70 km in the river in half an hour against the current. This was Zhang Tie's greatest reliance.
The river was also full of dangers; especially in the evening. On the way, Zhang Tie had met over 10 huge crocodiles longer than 5 m and some huge carnivorous fish. Those crocodiles and carnivorous fish were agile in water. At the sight of Zhang Tie, they wanted to swim over and have a close contact with Zhang Tie; however, they were easily thrown off by Zhang Tie. In order to not leave any clues for Dawson, Zhang Tie didn't kill them; instead, he just left them behind by his speed and agility in water. Although they were agile in water, compared to Zhang Tie, they were like tortoises and rabbits.
After coming to the bank, Zhang Tie found a tree hole of a huge red willow and drilled into it. Closely after that, he entered Castle of Black Iron...
