Entering the Tianzhu Mountains, Qin Chu could feel that the air had become much thicker and even filled with mist. There were sounds of beast roars and bursts of cold wind coming from nowhere. Those who are timid may really want to
Turn around and run.
Most of the people who entered earlier have already formed a group and headed a little deeper. There are still a few people here, all in groups of three or five, looking around, discussing, and probably formulating a battle plan.
"Seven days." Qin Chu thought about this time silently in his heart, and secretly swore in his heart that he would be benevolent if he didn't succeed.
Looking around, there was no trace of the Tang family's team. Qin Chu felt a little calmer in his heart: "I'm afraid everyone in the Tang family is eager to hunt down the beast soldiers now. I have to hurry up."
After choosing a direction, Qin Chu started walking in.
The jungle is lush and green, with towering trees everywhere. From time to time, a few birds fly by, chirping sharply.
Qin Chu walked cautiously. In the Tianzhu Mountains, even on the outermost edge, there might be powerful beasts.
"Pah! Cah!"
Qin Chu sat down on a huge tree root and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It's almost dark, and I didn't even see Tuo beast dung, let alone a wild beast. I really don't know if I'm lucky or not.
Unlucky."
He took out the pancakes carefully prepared by his mother from his arms, and Qin Chu, who had not eaten since morning, started to eat them.
Every martial artist who enters the mountain will be given enough dry food for seven days at home. Qin Xiaoxiao, a kind mother, also prepares seven days of dry food and noodles for Qin Chu.
After eating the whole pancake, Qin Chu burped and looked around: "I seem to hear the sound of running water. I'm so thirsty. I need to find some water to drink."
After determining the direction from which the sound of water came, Qin Chu walked quickly and passed through the dense bushes. The vision in front of him suddenly became clear, and he saw a small stream flowing down from the mountain in the distance towards the foot of the mountain.
Qin Chu was overjoyed and hurriedly ran up.
"Hey, that's it?"
Suddenly, Qin Chu glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a lotus flower emitting a faint blue glow, standing tall and graceful in the stream. It was only swaying slightly despite the impact of the flowing water.
Searching the memory in his head, pictures and introductions passed through Qin Chu's mind, and finally settled on a piece of information.
Qin Chu's pupils suddenly widened, his heart couldn't stop being ecstatic, and his voice started to tremble with excitement.
People in Tianwu Continent divide spiritual grass into grades one to ten according to its strength. The higher the grade, the rarer it is and the higher the price. Even such a blue heart lotus is worth at least 0 gold!
In Tuoyan Town, a large town adjacent to the Tianzhu Mountains, a low-level first-grade spiritual grass can be sold for dozens to hundreds of gold coins depending on its performance and use, and some people in the town have an annual income of 500 gold coins.
The family is considered relatively wealthy. Even the Tang family, which owns these four markets and many other industries in the town, only has an annual income of more than 100,000.
Blue Heart Lotus is undoubtedly a huge temptation for the poor Qin Chu.
"We must get the Blue Heart Lotus!" Qin Chu suddenly straightened up and was about to run towards the Blue Heart Lotus.
"Go over there and have a look."
"Leopard, there is the sound of running water over there, go and have a look."
"I heard that too. Come on, there's water. Let's eat some dry food first."
…
At this moment, several comments came from the jungle opposite.
"This is Tang Zewen's voice! Oops, is the Tang family's team coming here too? No, I can't run into the Tang family now. I'm afraid I won't be able to capture Lan Xinlian."
Qin Chu stroked his right hand, feeling a wave of pain. He made a quick decision, suppressed the greed in his heart, stopped, gave up on Lan Xinlian, looked around, and hid in the jungle on the side.
After a while, four figures were seen walking out of the jungle on the other side of the stream, three men and one woman.
"Sure enough, there is a stream, great, leopard, let's go get water quickly!" The person who spoke, short in stature and with a thick body, was none other than Tang Zeqiang's cousin Tang Zewen.
"Okay." The other person was very slender and frail. It was Zhang Bao. Zhang Bao responded to Tang Zewen, turned to look at the girl, and said with a flattering smile: "Juanjuan, I will help you get some water. Please sit down and rest for a while.
.”
"Um."
The girl was wearing a light blue dress, with delicate facial features, white and tender skin, and quite a bit of beauty. She responded softly and sat down against the thick tree trunk nearby, feeling very peaceful. Beside the girl, there was a big man standing,
He looks very honest and has a kind face.
Qin Chu looked through the gaps in the leaves and felt relieved: "Tang Zewen, Zhang Bao, Yu Juanjuan, Cao Hu. Fortunately, they are not the Tang family's team. I guess Tang Zewen's status in the Tang family is too low and he is not qualified to be with Tang Zeqiang."
"Grass, mosquito, look, what is that!" At this time, Zhang Bao suddenly shouted.
"What's all the fuss about?" Tang Zewen looked at Zhang Bao, then looked in the direction Zhang Bao pointed, and was stunned for a moment.
"Blue Heart Lily!!"
Hearing the two people's exclamations, Cao Hu and Yu Juanjuan both ran over and looked at the graceful blue heart lotus in the water, their eyes became a little excited.
"It's great! It's great! Blue Heart Lotus is a low-level first-grade spiritual grass. It can be sold for at least 0 gold coins outside. Each of the four of us can get 50 gold coins!" Zhang Bao said excitedly.
"Go and get it quickly." Tang Zewen was extremely anxious and ran towards the stream.
"Wait." Yu Juanjuan quickly called to Tang Zewen, with a worried look on her face: "I heard my father once said that spiritual grass is necessary for the advancement of barbarian beasts, so generally wherever the spiritual grass is, there will be barbarian beasts.
Beast Guardian, we’d better be careful.”
Yu Juanjuan's father is the chief martial artist of the Mu family, the most powerful family in Tuoyan Town. His strength has reached the fifth level of Ningxuan. He leads the Mu family's martial artists into the mountains several times every year. He often talks to Yu Juanjuan about things in the mountains.
, so Yu Juanjuan knows more than Tang Zewen and Zhang Bao.
"Savage beast?" Tang Zewen was stunned for a moment, then looked around and saw nothing was wrong. He laughed loudly and said, "It's okay. Juanjuan, look, it's very peaceful here. It doesn't seem like there are wild beasts at all. Look at me.
Go get it."
After saying that, Tang Zewen turned around and walked towards the stream, slowly approaching Blue Heart Lotus.
"Hiss, hiss..."
Before Tang Zewen got close to Blue Heart Lotus, he saw a huge python suddenly leaping out of the water, raising its triangular head, and staring at Tang Zeqiang with a pair of snake eyes, emitting a hint of cold light.
"Water Bamboo Snake!"
As soon as Tang Zeqiang saw this water bamboo snake, he was so frightened that his feet went weak. He couldn't even pull out his feet. Even the long sword he held in his hand clattered and fell on the exposed rocks in the stream.
The Water Bamboo Snake is a fourth-level beast that likes to live in the water. Its teeth are sharp and highly venomous, making people cautious, and its habits are even more vicious. Once a fight occurs, it will cross the entire Tianzhu Mountains.
Chasing you is so difficult that even the peak Tongxuan martial artist who is about to become a martial artist would not dare to offend you easily. No wonder Tang Zewen is frightened.
At this moment, Tang Zewen's intestines were so wet that he was stunned and didn't dare to move.
"Tang Zewen, move back slowly. As soon as you get to the shore, the water bamboo snake's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced." Yu Juanjuan calmed down slightly and shouted to Tang Zewen: "Zhang Bao, Cao Hu, prepare to fight. Don't be afraid, water bamboo snake."
Although the snake is a fourth-level beast, the only thing that is deadly is its venom. My father said that after a water bamboo snake sprays venom, it cannot spray it again for a while, so as long as we trick it into spraying once, we can hunt it!"
"Okay, got it!"
Cao Hu and Zhang Bao drew their swords from their waists at the same time. Tang Zewen, according to what Yu Juanjuan said, moved back step by step.
"Hiss!"
Although the water bamboo snake did not have spiritual intelligence, it could still see that Tang Zewen wanted to escape. The snake vomited loudly and rushed towards Tang Zewen quickly.
"Get ashore quickly!" Yu Juanjuan immediately pulled out her rapier and rushed towards Tang Zewen: "Cao Hu, Zhang Bao, go to meet him. Be careful of the venom."
Tang Zewen was so frightened that he crawled to the ground before landing. The Water Bamboo Snake was chasing after him. Fortunately, Zhang Bao and Cao Hu, one on the left and the other on the right, swung their swords to stop the Water Bamboo.
snake.
"Come back, the water bamboo snake is coming ashore." Yu Juanjuan acted very calmly at the moment and her command was very accurate.
Cao Hu and Zhang Bao picked up Tang Zewen and ran back. Sure enough, the Water Bamboo Snake had a difficult personality and went directly to the shore and chased after Tang Zewen.
"I'm going to trick the venom out of it!"
Although Yu Juanjuan only had the third level of Tongxuan strength and was only a girl, she was not afraid at all. She used the rapier very flexibly and stabbed the water bamboo snake's vitals.
"Whoosh!"
The powerful tail of the Water Bamboo Snake swung hard like a whip. Yu Juanjuan had no time to react and hurriedly blocked it with her sword.
"boom!"
After all, the Water Bamboo Snake is a fourth-level beast soldier, and its strength is far beyond what Yu Juanjuan can match. Yu Juanjuan was thrown back by the snake's tail for several meters before landing on the ground.
"Go and help!" Tang Zewen came to his senses and shouted anxiously.
Cao Hu and Zhang Bao also came to their senses and rushed forward with their long swords in hand.
"Chi chi chi chi!"
Suddenly, the neighing sound of the water bamboo snake became extremely sharp.
"Be careful, this beast is going to spray venom!" Seeing this, Yu Juanjuan's expression changed.
Zhang Bao and Cao Hu's expressions suddenly changed and they hid to the left and right respectively.
"Whoosh!"
The Water Bamboo Snake was seen shaking its head, and a mouthful of green liquid spurted out from the Water Bamboo Snake's mouth, covering an arc-shaped area.
"ah!"
The bodies of Cao Hu and Zhang Bao were immediately splashed with venom, which began to corrode. Fortunately, it only splashed on a small area on their hands, so it was not fatal.
"The beast elixir of the Water Bamboo Snake should be in the abdominal cavity, and the key point is in the eyes. I will blind its eyes. You quickly pick up your sword, and when I succeed, you can have a disembowelment!" Yu Juanjuan's face looked a little pale.
Bai Bai said to Tang Zewen.
After saying that, he held a thin sword and rushed towards the Water Bamboo Snake.
"Flowers in the Mirror and Moon in the Water!"
Yu Juanjuan let out a sweet cry, and the thin sword suddenly seemed to have evolved into thousands of strikes, stabbing at the water bamboo snake.
"Martial skills!!" Qin Chu, who was hiding in the jungle, was shocked when he saw this scene. After a moment, he sighed: "No, it's just a move, it's not formed. This Yu Juanjuan is really not simple, she is only a third-level master of Tongxuan."
Then you can evolve martial arts moves."
Martial skills are moves that can only be performed by those who have reached the realm of condensation. According to strength, martial arts are divided into several levels, and each level is divided into low, middle and high levels. In Tuoyan Town, ordinary families can at most
There are only one or two battle-level martial arts, and as far as Qin Chu knows, the most powerful low-level martial arts in Tuoyan Town is one level higher than the battle-level martial arts, but it is infinitely more powerful than the battle-level martial arts. It is the Yanwu Academy
The dean spent more than one million gold coins to buy it from outside. Qin Chu didn't know about the level of martial arts more powerful than this.
The Jing Hua Shui Yue performed by Yu Juanjuan just now is a mid-level martial arts skill, which is the secret skill of her father Yu Zhan. Yu Zhan serves as the chief martial artist of the Mu family in Tuoyan Town, and is a strong man who is even more powerful than Shangguan Xiong.
When Tang Yuankong saw Yu Zhan, he had to call out "Brother Yu".
"puff!"
The rapier accurately pierced the water bamboo snake's eyes as big as copper bells. Yu Juanjuan turned her right hand and applied force again, and the rapier immediately penetrated the water bamboo snake's eyes.
"Chi! Chi! Chi!"
The water bamboo snake was in pain, and the snake's body suddenly rolled around randomly, and the snake's tail swung around.
Yu Juanjuan was unable to retreat in time, and in an instant she was swung four or five times by the powerful tail of the water bamboo snake. She was thrown several meters away and fell to the ground unable to get up.
Tang Zewen, who went to get his sword, was slapped several times by the water bamboo snakes that were swarming around, and was thrown away.
"thump!"
The water bamboo snake fell back into the water, stabilized itself, and swam towards the blue heart lotus.
"Juanjuan, the water bamboo snake is going to run away."
"Cao Hu, Zhang Bao, you..."
"Our hands are poisoned and we can't do anything."
"It's over. I hope the Water Bamboo Snake hasn't recovered before we regain our strength."
The four people fell around, staring helplessly at the blue-heart lotuses with a faint blue glow in the stream, and the red stream water.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, I saw a figure jumping out of the jungle and quickly rushing into the stream. The man held a dagger in his left hand and stabbed the water bamboo snake into the abdomen. The water bamboo snake struggled for a while.
The whole body was stiff.
The man groped for a while from the belly of the water bamboo snake, took out a round bead with a faint green light, hid it in his arms, then pulled the blue heart lotus in the stream with one hand, and ran to the jungle on the other side.
It disappeared from the eyes of the four people in a few seconds.
"That's Qin Chu!"
Tang Ze roared angrily, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
