In the vast white forest, the Wolf King carried Zhao Qian on his back and ran wildly through the forest.
The Wolf King is very fast and can run a hundred meters in the blink of an eye. This speed can only be described as terrifying.
Moreover, the amazing thing is that when the Wolf King was running, Zhao Qian could not feel any cold wind or air resistance, as if the wind stopped flowing around the Wolf King.
Zhao Qian was glad that this was the case, otherwise his physical condition would not have been able to withstand the damage caused by the cold air when moving at high speed.
Soon, the Wolf King took Zhao Qian to the forest, next to an inconspicuous but weird lake.
It is inconspicuous because this lake is not big, just like the artificial lake in the park.
The strange thing is that in such cold weather, there is an area one meter in diameter in the center of the lake that is not frozen.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhao Qian would never have believed that there were still unfrozen lakes in such cold conditions.
Zhao Qian asked: "Lord Guardian, what is this situation?"
As if worried about being exposed, the Wolf King lay on the ground and explained: "There is a fire lotus in this lake. The fire lotus emits heat all year round, so it will not freeze even in the cold winter."
This is a treasure!
You know, even the fire bed in the cave cannot withstand the cold.
And this fire lotus, in the wild, is much colder than in the cave, but it can still rely on the heat it emits to melt into a cave entrance.
So, Zhao Qian immediately said: "I'm going to pick the fire lotus."
"Wait a moment!"
The Wolf King bit Zhao Qian's trouser leg and said, "If you go to pick the fire lotus now, you will probably be killed by the Yuan Beast as soon as you enter the water."
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows and asked: "The Yuan beast in this lake is so powerful? I am a fifth-level Tanluo."
"Fifth level Tan Luo is nothing!"
The Wolf King said contemptuously, and then said: "The fifth-level Tanluo is only equivalent to a more powerful barbarian Yuan Beast, and the one in this lake is a barbarian Yuan Beast."
Zhao Qian said: "It's just right, I can kill it."
The Wolf King continued: "I'm talking about on land. Don't forget that you have to enter the water. By then, your strength will be weakened a lot."
"Well……"
Zhao Qian was a little embarrassed. He was only thinking about picking fire lotus and forgot about this.
Moreover, if the Wolf King had not stopped him just now, almost all of the three points he reminded himself before would have been violated.
Let yourself be covered with water...
Not thinking before acting…
Entering the water will speed up the consumption of source power...
Zhao Qian asked: "Then what should I do?"
The Wolf King said: "You lie down first, and I will slowly explain the situation to you."
Zhao Qian hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to lie down next to the Wolf King, "You can talk now!"
The Wolf King said: "The Yuan beast in the lake is called the Swollen Horse. It looks chubby and has no offensive power, but in fact it has a very bad temper. Any animal that enters its territory will be attacked crazily..."
Stallion?
Who the hell named this?
The scale is too big!
Zhao Qian complained crazily in his heart, and then asked: "With my strength, am I its opponent?"
The Wolf King said: "On land, it can't beat you, but in the water, even three of you are no match for it, so I asked you to lie down and wait for the opportunity."
Zhao Qian asked: "Wait until it comes out of the lake?"
The Wolf King nodded and said: "That's right!"
Zhao Qian asked again: "What if it never comes out?"
The Wolf King shook his head and said: "Impossible, it must come out once a day."
Zhao Qian was puzzled and asked: "Why?"
The Wolf King explained: "The swollen horse is a beast that can eat, so it poops a lot every day. If there is no fire lotus, it will poop directly in the area where it lives, but strange flowers and fruits like the fire lotus,
The requirements for water quality are very high, so Zhuangma will take action every time and travel to far away places to prevent pollution of the lake."
When Zhao Qian heard this, he suddenly realized, and then said: "Should I kill the swollen horse when it comes out to pull it?"
"no!"
The Wolf King shook his head and said: "Although the bloated horse is not as powerful as you on land, it is not easy for you to kill it. If it escapes back to the lake, you will never be able to get the fire lotus again. It will eat the fire lotus immediately."
lotus."
"Therefore, if you want to get the fire lotus, you must sneak into the water when the swollen horse is out to pull, and pick away the lotus seeds...you are only allowed to pick one."
Zhao Qian rolled his eyes at the Wolf King and asked again, do you think it is possible?
On such a cold day, I have to lie down on the ground and wait, and I have to go into the water. You tell me to just pick one lotus seed?
Or don’t do it!
If you want to do it, there will be no one left!
"OK!"
Zhao Qian showed a sincere smile towards the Wolf King, and then asked: "Master Guardian, won't you help me later?"
"No help!"
The Wolf King shook his head firmly and said, "I have already taken great risks by bringing you here. How can I help you? Don't push yourself too far."
Zhao Qian chuckled and said hurriedly: "I understand, I understand..."
Click!
Click!
Click!
At this moment, a sound of glass being crushed suddenly came from the lake.
Then, there was an endless stream of sounds, as if some creature was crawling out from the bottom of the water.
"Come on, don't release any breath."
The Wolf King quickly reminded Zhao Qian to prevent Zhao Qian from being exposed.
"Um!"
Zhao Qian nodded, his eyes fixed on the lake.
At this time, the ice on the lake had already swelled high, and the Yuan beast inside was about to break through the ice.
Wow!
Finally, when the ice layer was pushed to its limit, it could no longer bear it, and a large hole was opened. The Yuan Beast named Swollen Horse finally revealed its true face in Mount Lu.
"Hippopotamus? Red hippopotamus!"
Zhao Qian looked at the swollen horse and his eyes suddenly widened because he discovered that the so-called swollen horse was actually a hippopotamus.
Of course, the swollen horse is much larger than the hippopotamus, and its whole body exudes a magma-like red color, and its neck is supported by triceratops-like tissue.
However, overall, it is still more like a hippopotamus.
After the swollen horse climbed out of the lake, the water droplets on its body were instantly frozen, and the ice coat completely wrapped the swollen horse.
However, the ice coat was so thin that the swollen horse didn't take it seriously at all. When he took a step forward, the ice coat fell from his body like broken glass.
Bang...
Bang bang...
The swollen horse walked step by step into the distance.
Seeing this, the Wolf King quickly reminded: "You don't have much time, you must hurry up, go ahead!"
"Well, I know!"
Zhao Qian did not dare to hesitate and quickly took off all his clothes and came to the water where the swollen horse was broken.
Although it was only for a short time, the water surface had begun to freeze at this time, so Zhao Qian used a dagger to cut through the ice, gritted his teeth and dived into the water.
