Gu Xuan's gaze landed on a larger Earth-Drilling Mouse.
The Earth-Drilling Mouse's eyes shone brightly. It hid among the other Earth-Drilling Mice as if it was trying its best to conceal itself.
Unfortunately, its body was more than half the size of an ordinary Earth-Drilling Mouse. It couldn't hide at all.
As if it felt Gu Xuan's gaze, the Earth-Drilling Mouse stuck close to the ground and quickly ran toward a corner of the cave. Obviously, it wanted to take advantage of the chaos to go deeper into the cave.
"Stop!"
Gu Xuan suddenly shouted. His body turned into a phantom. He took a step forward and then took another step back. His speed was extremely fast.
"Did you find something?"
Big Stone looked at Gu Xuan in confusion.
Dong!
Gu Xuan threw down a Earth-Drilling Mouse.
The Earth-Drilling Mouse was obviously greatly frightened. It wanted to run toward the group of Earth-Drilling Mice as soon as it landed. However, Gu Xuan caught it again and threw it to the ground.
"If you run again, I'll break all four of your legs."
Gu Xuan threatened.
Big Stone laughed and said, "Don't joke around. How can a Earth-Drilling Mouse understand human language? The ferocious beasts in Little Purgatory have low intelligence. At least a Great Emperor level ferocious beast can understand. Don't tell me you want to eat a Earth-Drilling Mouse … "
Before Big Stone could finish his words, he stopped abruptly.
Because that Earth-Drilling Mouse actually seemed to understand Gu Xuan's words. It lay on the ground motionlessly and trembled.
In the distance, the group of Earth-Drilling Mice looked at all this with fear. As a group of Earth-Drilling Mice, they didn't even dare to come to the rescue. Obviously, they were extremely afraid of Gu Xuan and the other two.
It couldn't be helped. If two of them couldn't bite, their teeth would break. If one of them didn't dare to bite, it was simply their natural enemy.
"Oh my god, even a Earth-Drilling Mouse can understand human language. What's wrong with this world?"
Big Stone, who was laughing loudly just now, was greatly affected.
Li Xieyun narrowed his eyes and sized up the Earth-Drilling Mouse. He also felt strange.
If his master specially picked out a Earth-Drilling Mouse, then this Earth-Drilling Mouse was definitely not simple.
"Very well, stop pretending. Just lie there obediently. Do you think I can't find you if you hide? It's useless. Your fat body is like a firefly in the dark, so bright and outstanding. So, hurry up and tell me, are you an Earth-drilling Mouse? "
Gu Xuan stared at the Earth-Drilling Mouse, as if he wanted to see through it.
Big Stone laughed again. "Lord Gu Xuan, although this Earth-Drilling Mouse can understand human language, you're overestimating it if you want it to speak human language. Between the various species of Direbeasts, it can be said that the hierarchy is very strict. Even the Burrowing Rats can't speak. It … "
At this point, Big Stone's voice stopped abruptly.
That was because this plump Earth-drilling Mouse had already started to speak.
"Reporting to my lord, this lowly one is indeed a Burrowing Mouse. Actually, I don't know why I'm so fat. If you don't like it, I'll work hard to lose weight from today onwards! "
Big Stone and Li Xieyun were both stunned by Burrowing Mouse's words.
Of course, they weren't shocked that a Burrowing Mouse actually knew the concept of losing weight. Instead, it was that this Burrowing Mouse, the lowest species in the Little Purgatory, actually spoke!
The shock it brought to the two of them was as if they were walking by the roadside and saw a slightly stronger ant that actually spoke.
"Oh my god, even a Burrowing Mouse can speak. Has the end of the world arrived?"
Big Stone exclaimed. He couldn't believe his ears at all.
Although he was already prepared, Gu Xuan was actually also a little surprised. However, he had already put on a look of foresight. He smiled faintly and stared at the Burrowing Mouse.
"Let's put the matter of losing weight aside for now. What I'm most interested in now is, why can you speak?"
Gu Xuan was very curious.
The Burrowing Mouse's eyes darted around a few times and it squeaked a few times. Its voice was very flattering.
"Reporting to my lord, this is a long story. I have to start from when I was young."
"Then let's make it short."
"Yes! This lowly one can suddenly speak when he was young. "
"…"
Not only Gu Xuan, but Li Xieyun and the stone man were also speechless.
"I've seen people bluffing, but I've never seen someone bluffing like you. Do you know that you're courting death?"
Big Stone threatened the Burrowing Mouse fiercely.
"This lowly one isn't lying. I can speak for as long as I can remember. I don't know why either. It's probably because I was born with a talent! "
The Burrowing Mouse's eyes darted around quickly.
Big Stone was angry. "Little mouse, I think you're refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Do you know the Thirteen Gangsters of the Stone Man Canyon? I'm the boss!
Back then, I held two big bricks in my hands and chased a group of Biting Mice from Stone Man East Road to Stone Man West Road! I flattened them with one brick, one brick after another, for a whole six hours without even blinking! "
The Burrowing Mouse was scared out of its wits and shivered.
"You didn't even blink for six hours. That's too scary!"
Big Stone was so angry that he looked everywhere for bricks.
"I said that I didn't even blink when killing mice. What you're scared of is that you didn't blink for six hours. Can't you tell what's important when you're scared?"
The corner of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched. He really wanted to use a brick to flatten Big Stone. Apart from burying its head like an ostrich when it was in danger and trying its best to show off when there was no danger, it was useless.
Smack!
Gu Xuan slapped Big Stone into the group of Burrowing Mice. The Burrowing Mice shrieked and fled in all directions, afraid that Big Stone would flatten them.
"That's enough, fat mouse. Put away your tricks. No one can fool me, Gu Xuan. If you really can speak from a young age, then you're only three months old. But obviously, that's not the case. "
Gu Xuan's eyes turned black and white as he stared at the Burrowing Mouse.
The Burrowing Mouse suddenly widened its eyes. An extremely human-like expression of shock appeared on its face.
"How is that possible? How can you tell? "
Gu Xuan smiled faintly. Obviously, his guess was right.
"Looking at your body, you're at least a hundred years old. Without a hundred years of evolution, it's impossible for your intelligence to reach such a high level. If I'm an ordinary Great Emperor, I'm afraid I'll be fooled by you.
Unfortunately, I'm not. According to the information and description in my memory, the fact that you can develop such intelligence and grow to such a large size can only mean one thing. You've advanced. And it's not just once.
The first time should have been a hundred years ago. The second time should have been three months ago. The evolution a hundred years ago allowed your intelligence to increase greatly. The evolution three months ago allowed you to speak the human language. "
The Burrowing Mouse smiled bitterly. It knew that there was no point in continuing to hide it.
