Zhang Ping followed Liu Sishan on a small road in Yanshan District.
Both sides of the road are covered with a salt-tolerant plant called hydrochloric acid grass. The fruits of this plant are rich in hydrochloric acid and are extremely corrosive. When mature, they will explode into the sky, and then explode in the sky, scattering the seeds.
All around.
Once the fruit ripening season arrives, hydrochloric acid grass is very dangerous within a radius of hundreds of miles, and you will often face sudden hydrochloric acid rain.
In addition to the fruits, the leaves of hydrochloric acid grass are also very sharp and secrete a special grass liquid. If you are cut by the leaves and the wound is stained with this grass liquid, the pain will be amplified hundreds of times, and it may even cause biological diseases.
Died from shock.
This hydrochloric acid grass liquid is both a medicinal material and a poison in Pearl City.
After Zhang Ping identified the hydrochloric acid grass, he walked very carefully along the way. On the contrary, Liu Sishan, who was walking in front, still took his time and didn't care about the hydrochloric acid grass around him at all.
"It is your opponent, just go ahead and prepare yourself."
Liu Sishan stopped halfway, pointed to Zhang Ping the white rabbit eating hydrochloric acid grass not far away, and whispered.
Although this rabbit is a mutated beast, its size has not changed and is still the size of a rabbit.
Zhang Ping looked at the rabbit and appraised it without saying anything.

Water erosion?
Zhang Ping carefully observed the ears of the Water-Erosion Bullet Rabbit, but did not find anything special.
He couldn't imagine how this rabbit would fight, and the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit was eating hydrochloric acid grass. The surrounding hydrochloric acid grass also provided it with excellent protection, so he couldn't even get close.
"How to solve it?"
Zhang Ping frowned and thought, he really didn't have the means to target long-distance targets now.
The flames provided by the Fire Eater can only attack targets at close or medium distances at most, and cannot reach targets exceeding two meters.
Liu Sishan's choice of Water Eclipse Bullet Rabbit as his opponent was definitely not without purpose. He might actually have some means to restrain Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit.
"I don't have any long-range means. If I get close, my hands and feet will be restricted by the hydrochloric acid grass. The problem must be the hydrochloric acid grass."
Zhang Ping simply squatted down and carefully observed the hydrochloric acid grass.
The leaves of the hydrochloric acid grass have jagged edges and are much harder than ordinary leaves. Zhang Ping raised his head and glanced at the Erosion Bullet Rabbit that was grazing not far away. His fingers slightly released a little flame. The leaves of the hydrochloric acid grass met the flames.
It softens immediately and the feel becomes completely different.
"I see!"
Zhang Ping suddenly understood.
Hydrochloric acid grass is afraid of fire and will become soft once it encounters fire.
He probably knows how to pass this level.
Then he stood up, first took off his shoes, then used a dagger to cut his trousers into shorts, and finally took off his shirt.
After putting away his clothes, he rushed towards the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit with a dagger in hand.
He stepped into the hydrochloric acid grass. When he was about to touch the hydrochloric acid grass, flames burst out from the soles of his feet. The hydrochloric acid grass immediately softened and it felt great to touch.
Then there were flashes of fire on his body.
Whenever it almost touches the hydrochloric acid grass, flames will erupt from the corresponding position on the body.
Although he had the Nightwalker talent to weaken his presence, Zhang Ping's body continued to emit flames, which still alarmed the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit. The rabbit flicked its long ears, and drops of black liquid spurted out from the tips of its ears.
This black liquid was like a shotgun, and it shot extremely fast. Zhang Ping had no way to avoid it. The moment it came into contact with the liquid, various parts of his body burst into flames, and the liquid was evaporated in the blink of an eye.
But the dagger in his hand was hit by the black liquid, and numerous tiny holes appeared.
At this moment, he didn't care about his heartache. He moved closer to the Water-Erosion Bullet Rabbit with his feet, holding the dagger and stabbed it hard. Unexpectedly, the Water-Erosion Bullet Rabbit curled up into a ball, and a large amount of green liquid came out of its hair.
Hydrochloric acid grass liquid!
But it was too late.
The dagger stabbed down, and when he lifted it up, it was completely corroded, leaving only the handle in his hand.
"Grass!"
Zhang Ping couldn't help but cursed, and simply threw the handle away, his hands ignited with flames, and he directly hit the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit.
But the Bullet Rabbit is not stupid either.
Before Zhang Ping's fist came, he jumped his legs and quickly avoided the attack.
Even after avoiding the attack, it quickly twisted its body, its ears fluttered in the wind, and drops of black liquid shot towards Zhang Ping again.
boom!
Zhang Ping swept his left arm, and flames spurted out, forming a wall of flames in an instant to block all the black liquid.
When the fire light dissipated, Zhang Ping looked around, only to find that the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit was nowhere to be found.
He was dumbfounded.
The rabbit actually ran away?
But he soon realized that rabbits would run away from predators.
At best, the Water Erosion Bullet Rabbit only has some more defense and attack methods, but in essence it is still a rabbit that eats grass.
Since it doesn't need to eat Zhang Ping, why fight with Zhang Ping? Of course it will run away as soon as it gets the chance.
Zhang Ping looked at Liu Sishan and said helplessly: "Sister Sisi, what should we do now? The rabbit ran away."
"If you run away, then chase." Liu Sishan said calmly.
She picked up Zhang Ping's clothes and walked directly towards Zhang Ping. All the hydrochloric acid grass she passed was instantly frozen and then crushed to pieces by her.
"Looking for it, where should I look for it?" Zhang Ping said with a bitter smile.
Liu Sishan did not answer, but continued walking past Zhang Ping. Zhang Ping had no choice but to follow. After walking for a while, they came to the edge of the hydrochloric acid grassland. In front of them was a piece of dry land, and there was even a thin layer of hoarfrost on the ground.
It's salt.
The two continued to walk forward, and Zhang Ping gradually smelled the smell of rotting corpses.
【Chirp!】
…
【Hiss!】
…
【Click, click!】
Zhang Ping began to hear some strange sounds through the wind whisperer.
He frowned and said, "Sister Sisi, something is wrong. I heard the sounds of many creatures."
"There is an alienated plant in the deepest part of the Salt Mountain, called the Salt Frost Tree. Every year when it bears fruit, a large number of alienated creatures gather to fight, and the winner in the end gets the Salt Frost Fruit.
Although the Salt Frost Fruit is extremely salty and requires a large amount of water to be consumed, eating the Salt Frost Fruit for the first time can increase the potential of the awakened ones and the alienated beasts, so every year there are many alienated beasts competing with the awakened ones." Liu Sishan
Said slowly.
Zhang Ping's eyes widened and he asked, "Isn't it tonight?"
"Calculate the time, if there is no accident, it will be tonight." Liu Sishan said calmly.
Zhang Ping stopped and frowned: "It's too dangerous. With my current strength, Sister Sisi, do you think I can get involved in such a thing?"
This time he refused firmly.
He owns the Contract Gem and does not lack potential at all. What he lacks is the time to convert potential into strength, so he really has no idea about Yan Shuang.
"If I'm not wrong, your wind whisperer ability should have been awakened after coming into contact with the Wind Gem, right?" Liu Sishan said suddenly.
Zhang Ping's eyes widened suddenly. He looked at Liu Sishan in surprise and asked, "Sister Sisi, how do you know my abilities?"
"Don't you think you are the only one in the world who has the ability to identify? In fact, we have known about your ability for a long time, but you seemed to want to keep it secret, so I didn't reveal it." Liu Sishan said with a smile.
In fact, after Zhang Ping showed his ability as a fire eater, she realized that Zhang Ping's ability was not simple, so she asked the appraiser in the organization to evaluate Zhang Ping's attributes.
Zhang Ping was speechless after hearing this.
He can identify other people, why does he think that others can't identify him?
This is a normal thing. No wonder most awakened people in Pearl City don't care about others knowing their abilities.
"We have studied your abilities, especially when you suddenly gained the ability of Wind Talker. We can be sure that your abilities should also have some hidden mechanism to stimulate abilities, such as coming into contact with some heavenly and earthly treasures, or encountering special
environment, so Salt Frost Fruit may allow you to awaken other abilities." Liu Sishan said.
After all, Zhang Ping is not a real young man. Although he was a little embarrassed to have his inner thoughts revealed by Liu Sishan, he quickly calmed down and said with a frown: "Sister Sisi, since you know my abilities, you should understand that as long as I live, I will become something like this sooner or later.
It’s very strong, so why take the risk?”
"In fact, there have been many examples like yours in the past. For example, there was an awakened person whose ability was extraordinary adaptability. In different environments, he could awaken different abilities to adapt to the environment. However, as he grew older, the strength of his abilities declined.
It declined rapidly. After the age of 70, he never awakened new abilities. Finally, when he was 90, he decided to take a risk and died in the magma layer with no bones left." Liu Sishan looked at Zhang Ping and said.
Seeing that Zhang Ping had listened to his words, Liu Sishan continued: "Awakened people are not gods, they are just humans after all. Although some awakened people can live hundreds of years and even maintain their peak physical condition, most awakened people age with age.
Growth, once it passes its peak period, not only will its strength not improve, but it will decline rapidly.
Not all potential can be converted into strength. You should seize every opportunity to become stronger, instead of thinking about getting stronger in the future, because there will be a future, when do you want to wait?"
"..."
Zhang Ping was silent. This was the first time he knew about this kind of thing.
He had known before that the strength of awakened people would decline as they grew older, but he did not expect that even their superpowers would also decline.
In fact, he did have many unrealistic ideas in the past, such as awakening the ability of "eternal life" and "immortality", living happily ever after, and becoming an immortal and an ancestor.
But Liu Sishan was hit by a basin of cold water at this moment, and he finally realized that his thoughts were too wonderful.
"Sister Sisi, have you been here before?" He looked at Liu Sishan and asked.
Liu Sishan looked into the distance and answered after a while: "I came here when I was a member of the investigation team. At that time, I could only use my abilities for defense, and I almost escaped death."
"Then let's go." Zhang Ping nodded.
Liu Sishan smiled slightly and immediately followed Zhang Ping.
