Chapter 33: Leaps and Bounds

On the surface of the river, a strange fish jumps out and splashes as it falls.

Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whether it's a python or an octopus monster, it's a big guy, in such a dark river, it's already very rare for two to appear at the same time, and then a third head appears, it's a little abnormal!"

Thinking to himself, he quickly picked up the willow heart.

As soon as he held it in his hand, Qin Ming felt that the cells in his whole body, from the inside out, from the smallest mitochondria to the organs and viscera, all issued a greedy desire, wanting to absorb and digest the heart of the tree.

It's instinct.

"O spirit of plants and trees, the purest life force!" Qin Ming sighed, his eyes flashed one after another, and in the end, he didn't take it, but put it into his mind.

There's a meter in circumference, that's enough.

After looking at the two corpses, without much hesitation, the autopsy began.

Whether it is an octopus monster or a python, they are all high-level monsters, and once they are shipped back, any one of them is worth hundreds of millions. Now that the danger has passed, he naturally will not waste it.

After a while, Qin Ming got the main materials down, cleaned them a little and put them in his backpack.

In the belly of the python, he also found the undigested body of the rat king, which was dissected together.

Unfortunately, the corpses of the other gray rats have sunk to the bottom of the river and been devoured by strange fish, and there is no value for recycling.

Syllable......!

There was a voice from above, Qin Ming raised his head, and saw a drop of water falling, his heart moved, and he hurriedly spread out his palm to catch it.

In the palm of the hand, the liquid is white, rolling like a bead.

Qin Ming also felt that there was a feeling of hunger coming from his entire palm.

"The essence of stalactites?"

He remembered that the willow tree had absorbed the liquid next to the roots of the tree at a critical moment, and finally broke out in a wave, almost turning the situation around.

"Could it be that the spirit of plants and trees was born here, because of this?"

While Qin Ming was thinking, he stretched out his tongue and licked it.

The sweet and greasy taste instantly spreads from the tip of the tongue to the chest and abdomen, and then spreads throughout the body, making the cells in the body boil.

"Good stuff!"

Without further hesitation, swallow the drop whole.

Suddenly, a body cell seemed to open its small mouth, plundering the things of creation.

The blood is rushing, and the muscles are trembling.

Qin Ming put on a posture and took the opportunity to cultivate the Xuandao diagram.

A quarter of an hour later, he got up and smiled.

"Before I left home, I cultivated to twenty-four pictures, and in the past few days of fighting, as long as I hone my body and sword skills, my cultivation will naturally slow down!"

"But just now, with a drop, I easily succeeded in cultivating the twenty-fifth picture!"

"This is a treasure of heaven and earth!"

Qin Ming was excited and began to search around half of the stump, but found nothing.

He dug out the roots of the tree without giving up, and in the center of the roots, there was still a lump left, obviously the willow tree had not completely absorbed it.

"Good luck!"

Qin Ming was overjoyed and hurriedly put it away.

Looking at the two willow trees, he shook his head, not interested in collecting. This kind of thing can't see the light of day, otherwise, he will definitely not be able to live in peace.

"This willow tree should only be equivalent to the early stage of the God of War, otherwise, it would not have allowed the Rat King to tear the trunk!"

With a sigh of emotion, he raised his head, looked at the stone stalactites hanging upside down on it, and carefully observed it for a moment, but found nothing.

"Do you want to?"

Qin Ming was eager to try, but in the end he didn't act.

"The essence of stone stalactites, also known as the essence of earth milk, is a peculiar structure of the mountain, condensed in one place, and finally formed!"

He vaguely remembered that there was an introduction to this kind of thing on the Internet, and he just glanced at it at the time.

Circle around.

"It should be safe here for the time being, since that's ......!"

Qin Ming looked at the stone stalactite in the cup in his hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

Rumble......!

In an instant, a rolling torrent exploded in his body.

The blood marrow is shaken, and the cells tremble.

Even the tiniest mitochondria send out voracious swallowing.

Qin Ming hurriedly put on a posture and cultivated the Xuandao Diagram again.

Even if you don't cultivate, your body will absorb all the stalactites and improve your physical fitness, but just cultivating the Xuandao Diagram will accelerate the absorption, and it can strengthen the bones and skin.

Otherwise, it will only improve the quality, but it will lack the strengthening of this aspect.

In the blink of an eye, the twenty-sixth picture was successfully cultivated.

A quarter of an hour later, the twenty-seventh drawing was completed.

Half a day later, Qin Ming completed his cultivation of the thirtieth diagram of the Xuan Dao.

The boiling heat in the body has finally disappeared.

"The thirtieth picture is equivalent to the peak limit of an intermediate warrior!"

"With my current physical fitness, I am no weaker than a martial artist who has just stepped into the high-level general!"

"If it's the four-layer power technique of urging punching!"

"Senior generals, I have the confidence to cut them with one sword!"

Qin Ming's confidence doubled.

After resting, packing up, putting on his backpack, holding a shield in his left hand and a war knife in his right hand, he jumped into the river without hesitation.

As for going upstream?

But he didn't think about it.

Through the original passage, he prepared to return to the valley.

However, in the river, because of the corpse of the gray mouse, a large number of strange fish were attracted, Qin Ming rushed left and right, separated the corpse torrent, and finally escaped from the waterhole in the valley.

His presence broke the silence of the valley.

The remaining twenty or thirty gray rats around heard the movement and flew forward.

"There are still any?" Qin Ming grinded his teeth, revealing a calm look.

With a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right, he rushed into the group of gray rats and went on a killing spree.

In just a few moments, they were slaughtered.

With a sigh of relief, Qin Ming quickly walked out of the valley.

At this time, there is already a touch of red light in the eastern sky, and it will not be long before the sun will leap out of the sea, shining on the earth and warming all things, just as it was eons ago.

The Qin and Ming dynasties moved rapidly towards the ruined capital.

Stepping on the arrow step, one step is fifty or sixty meters away, and you can run a thousand kilometers in four or five seconds, this kind of speed is a real gallop.

At the same time, he turned on the smartwatch, and a lot of beeps immediately appeared on it.

When escaping from the Ruined Capital, he turned off all kinds of beeps to prevent movement and attract fierce beasts.

In the underground cave, the mind is nervous, where is that opportunity?

"Is Xiao Qin here?"

"Qin Ming, answer, answer!"

"You're not going to die, are you?"

"Qin Ming, if you don't die, just say a word!"

"Your smartwatch is still on, it shouldn't be dead!"

"Qin Ming, is it not even you, even you, ......!"

A series of voices, from anxious, to worried, and finally choked up.

"Sister Niu, I'm here, are you okay?"

Qin Ming just dialed over, and the other party immediately connected.

"Qin Ming, you, are you still alive, that's good, that's good!" Niu Piaopiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Where are you, I'll look for you!"

"Sister Niu, Brother Ma, where is Brother Yang?"

"Their watches can't be connected, they should be ......!" Niu Piaopiao took a deep breath and said, "It should be dead!"

"Dead?" Qin Ming's heart trembled.

"It should be dead, otherwise, the watch will not be broken!" Niu Piaopiao sighed, "The gray rat rioted all over the city, and the hunters in the city are probably sixty or seventy percent dead, but fortunately, in the end, the gray rat left the city completely for some reason, and I was able to escape." ”

As for the reason, Qin Ming already knew, but he couldn't say it.

Following the other party's instructions, he turned around and headed towards the south of the ruined city.

As soon as the sun appeared, he found Niu Piaopiao more than twenty miles outside the city.

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" The moment she saw Qin Ming, this resolute woman couldn't help but have red eyes.

"Sister Niu, it's all because of me!" Qin Ming said gloomily.

"Hunting in the wild, nine times out of ten, it is difficult to get out of the whole body, I have been mentally prepared, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly, so suddenly!" Niu Piaopiao shook his head, "Xiao Qin, even if there is no you, we will go out, you must not feel guilty." Outside the city, life and death are too normal. ”

"There were six people when we came, but now, there are still two of us left!" Qin Ming said bitterly, "Sister Niu, I will take care of Brother Ma, Brother Yang and Brother Xiong's families in the future!"

"I'll take care of it!" Niu Piaopiao said, "After returning to the base this time, I won't come out again, and I'm going to find a job in the martial arts hall and settle down." With my savings over the years, there is no problem in taking care of my family. Xiao Qin, your future is not here, but in a higher place, don't be distracted by these things. ”

"It's okay to leave it to you!" Qin Ming nodded, took off the backpack, and handed it over, "Sister Niu, there are three high-level beast generals in it, and they can be sold for more than a billion, so you can divide it then!"

"Three high-level beast generals?" Niu Piaopiao was shocked.

Qin Ming nodded: "Sister Niu, you must not refuse, if there is any trouble in the future, notify me immediately! You should know that after this time, it won't be long before I go to the headquarters for training, and when I return, I am sure that I will reach the God of War level." ”

"Good, good, good!" Niu Piaopiao cried with joy, "If there is really a problem that can't be solved in the future, I must look for you, if you don't care, I will go to Lao Qin!"

"Heaven is not afraid of the earth, I am definitely afraid of my family!" Qin Ming said, "Sister Niu, do you know Hou Chong's situation?"

"Hou Chong?" Niu Piaopiao flashed a fierce color, "At dawn, I saw him and a teammate heading south in embarrassment, probably returning to the military region's station. ”

"To the south, only one teammate?"

"Well, the rest of his teammates are also dead!"

As for Hou Chong, it's time to settle the account with him!"
