Chapter 17: The Tiger and Leopard Beast
Ou Feng and the four of them walked out of Yong'an Town, climbed over two mountains, and after walking for almost an hour, a vast green mountain range appeared in front of Ou Feng.
Looking at the mountains in front of him where one or two beast roars could be heard from time to time, Ou Feng felt a mysterious and wild aura coming to his face.
"Ou Feng, further ahead is the Xingyue Mountain Range, we will be active on the edge of the Xingyue Mountain Range later, pay attention to safety. The monkey turned to Ou Feng beside him and said.
The golden lotus on the side also described the appearance characteristics of purple salvia, Jizo flower, and living qi fruit to Ou Feng in turn, and after Ou Feng nodded and understood, everyone began to gradually look around.
Ou Feng searched carefully in a jungle, surrounded by flowers and plants that he had never seen before, and after searching for a while, he did not find the three herbs that Jin Lian described to him.
Ou Feng looked around, ready to change places and continue his search. Suddenly, Ou Feng noticed that the bushes not far ahead were shaking, and there was a sound of rustling.
Ou Feng's expression tightened, his eyes stared at the bushes in front of him, and his body slowly retreated.
The Xingyue Mountains are inaccessible, and the bushes are overgrown with weeds, and it is impossible to see the situation in the bushes at all. As the sound got closer and closer, Ou Feng's body was slowly moving, and a thunderball in his right hand quietly appeared, staring solemnly ahead.
"Meow"
A petite figure jumped out of the bushes, and when he saw Ou Feng outside the bushes, he seemed to be very scared, screamed, and ran into the bushes again.
Looking at the unknown little beast that suddenly appeared in front of him and disappeared in an instant, Ou Feng's heart hanging in the air slowly fell, wiped the dense sweat that appeared in front of his forehead at some point, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
After the episode just now, Ou Feng began to look around again, but he always maintained a vigilance in his heart. But I don't know if it's bad luck or what's the reason, I can't find a single herb I want.
"Come on, everybody, let's discuss. ”
Ou Feng heard a shout not far behind him, glanced back at the words that were standing in a clearing, and turned and walked over.
Looking at the few people who had gathered, he said with a bitter face: "How many herbs did you find the boss said? ”
"Me too. Ou Feng immediately replied.
"I only found one purple salvia. ”
"I found a living fruit, but it didn't seem to have been ripe for long. ”
Looking at the harvest in their hands, everyone was a little depressed, these two herbs were completely insufficient.
"Or ...... Shall we go inside?" said the chatter tentatively.
Hearing the chattering proposal, everyone was a little hesitant. On one side is the herb necessary for Saiyun to break through the Xuandan Realm, and on the other hand, there is an unknown danger in the depths of the Xingyue Mountain Range.
"Then let's go inside, although the edge of the Star-Moon Mountain Range is relatively safe, almost all the herbs have been picked by the mercenary team in the town. ”
Hearing the monkey speak, the four of them all nodded, and then no longer hesitated, slowly detached from the edge and walked towards the depths of the Xingyue Mountain Range.
After the four of them walked for about half an hour, they were already surrounded by towering trees, and their dense branches rose to the sky, only sparse sunlight penetrated into the forest, and the temperature dropped a little.
Noticing the changes around him, the leading monkey looked at the gradually increasing footprints of the mysterious beast on the ground, and said with a wary face: "Everyone stay vigilant, let's look around here." ”
The expressions of the four of them were slightly tense, and the Xuan Qi in their bodies was running slowly, so that they could react quickly when there was an emergency. Once everything was ready, they gradually separated and searched for it.
"Wow, here are three purple salvia......"
"I've also found a living fruit here......
As everyone had harvested, Ou Feng finally found two Jizo flowers, carefully picked them and put them away.
"There are so many herbs in this inaccessible place, and they really support the bold and starve the faint-hearted. The chatter looked at the five or six herbs in his hand and couldn't help but speak.
As more and more medicinal herbs were in everyone's hands, they inadvertently walked more and more towards the depths of the Xingyue Mountain Range.
Suddenly, Ou Feng, who was seriously searching, suddenly stopped, and looked at a flower not far in front of him with a somewhat puzzled expression.
This flower has all the characteristics of Jizo flowers, except that the only difference is that there is a bright and clear fruit growing on the flower, and there is a faint fragrance.
Just when Ou Feng was puzzled, his shoulder was slapped by a pair of hands, and Ou Feng, who was caught off guard, trembled all over his body, and turned his head to see that Jin Lian was looking at him with a smile on his face.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing Jin Lian's inquiry, Ou Feng pointed to the herb in front of him that resembled a Jizo flower.
Looking in the direction of Ou Feng's finger, Jin Lian's smiling face suddenly turned to the side, and exclaimed, "Jizo Fruit!"
Hearing Jin Lian's exclamation, the words of searching for medicinal herbs around and the monkey's expression tightened, thinking that something was wrong, and hurriedly galloped over.
When he saw the herbs not far ahead, he was also surprised: "My obedient, Jizo Fruit." He patted Ou Feng on the shoulder: "Good guy, you are really a lucky star." ”
"Look at this condition, it's been at least twenty years old. The monkey on the side also spoke, and as he spoke, he couldn't wait to go over and pick it. You must know that the Jizo flower is pregnant for at least ten years before it has a chance to grow Jizo fruit, and there are still twenty years of Jizo fruit in front of you, and one is enough to cover hundreds of Jizo flowers.
Just as everyone was excitedly following the monkey towards the Jizo Fruit, suddenly a fishy wind blew, and a beast shadow suddenly jumped out of the weeds on the side, so fast that it couldn't see clearly, and in the blink of an eye, it had rushed to the monkey.
The three people in the rear were frightened by this sudden scene and were about to shout. I saw that the monkey's speed was also dissatisfied, and he suddenly rolled back to the side, narrowly avoiding the claws of the beast shadow.
When the beast shadow landed, everyone saw the appearance of the beast shadow clearly, the body was about two zhang long, the whole body was black, there were countless small spots on the body, the body was like a leopard, and there were faint king-shaped stripes on the head like a tiger.
"Tiger and leopard!"
Everyone exclaimed in unison and gasped. After the tiger and leopard beast becomes an adult, it is equivalent to the terrifying existence of the late stage of the human Xuandan Realm, because it is a mysterious beast, so it can not fall behind in the slightest when fighting against the powerhouse at the peak of the Xuandan Realm, and the tiger and leopard beast in front of him is obviously an adult.
Everyone looked at the tiger and leopard beast in front of them, and the body slowly retreated, while the tiger and leopard beast in front of them just stared at them deadly, and its body kept spinning around beside the Jizo Fruit, but it didn't chase everyone again, as if it was guarding the Jizo Fruit.
Everyone took a few steps back, looking at the tiger and leopard beast that was still in place, and the heart hanging in their hearts slowly fell, it seemed that this tiger and leopard beast just wanted to protect this Jizo fruit. But looking at the Jizo Fruit behind the tiger and leopard beast, everyone became sad again, there is a tiger and leopard beast guarding this Jizo fruit, how can they not get it.
"If I were a spirit master, this tiger and leopard beast, watch me cut it in half with a knife, never drag mud and water, and then take the Jizo fruit and leave. The words on the side couldn't help but fantasize in the face of the unsolvable situation in front of him.
"What can we do about this, if we can get the Dizang Fruit, Saiyun will have a good chance of breaking through to the Xuandan Realm in two months. ”
"It seems that no one has discovered this Jizo fruit, but that it is guarded by this tiger and leopard beast. ”
Just when several people were helpless in the face of the current situation, only Ou Feng did not speak on the side, bowed his head and groped the thunderball on his body, as if thinking about something.
"Let's go......"
Everyone thought for a long time to no avail, and the monkey spoke lightly. The two of them also shook their heads helplessly, glanced at the Jizo Fruit that was close at hand, and wanted to turn around and leave.
"Wait, I have a solution. Ou Feng suddenly stopped the three of them.
Looking at the three people who turned around and looked at him suspiciously, Ou Feng said: "Later, I will find a way to lure away the tiger and leopard beast, you find a chance to take the hidden fruit and run, don't wait for me, I will find a way to get out, and then go back to Yong'an Town to find you." ”
As soon as the words fell, the chatter raised his hand and touched Ou Feng's forehead, and sighed: "I don't have a fever." ”
Jin Lian on the side also spoke anxiously: "Ou Feng, this is a mysterious beast equivalent to the Xuandan realm, you are still just a Xuan Master, and you are also a Heavy Xuan Master." ”
Only the monkey did not speak, but looked at Ou Feng with the same puzzlement.
Seeing everyone's reaction like this, Ou Feng didn't explain much, just slowly took out a thunderball from his arms.
When the three of them saw the thunderball in Ou Feng's hand, their pupils shrank, although they didn't know what it was, but when Ou Feng took it out of his arms, an extremely dangerous aura appeared in their hearts, if this thunderball exploded, they couldn't resist it no matter what, only one died.
"Now you can trust me. ”
Looking at the thunderball in Ou Feng's hand, the monkey glanced deeply at Ou Feng again and nodded.
Jin Lian still wanted to open her mouth to persuade, but was gently pulled by the monkey: "We believe him, if Ou Feng is in any danger at that time, we will take action immediately." ”
Jin Lian looked at Ou Feng with a firm face and did not speak. Just took out a piece of rune paper, and the soul power worked, slowly outlining on the rune paper.
After about a stick of incense, it seemed that a lot of physical strength was consumed, Jin Lian wiped the sweat beads on her face, and handed the talisman paper to Ou Feng: "This is a first-order high-grade talisman light spirit talisman, if you are caught up by the tiger and leopard beast at that time, you can crush this talisman, which can provide you with double the speed in a short time." ”
As soon as he spoke, an angry roar came out of the mouth of the tiger and leopard beast, and everyone was shocked again, as if the tiger and leopard beast had become a little impatient with the people who had not left for a long time.
After everything was ready, Ou Feng let the three of them leave, hiding behind a hill not far away, while he took a deep breath, looked at the tiger and leopard beast in front of him, and clenched the thunderball in his hand.
Watching the three of them gradually leave, only Ou Feng remained motionless in place, the tiger and leopard beast stared at Ou Feng deadly, grinning and roaring, as if warning Ou Feng for the last time. But Ou Feng's face did not change at this time, and he sat down slowly.
Watching Ou Feng sit down slowly, the tiger and leopard beast was also stunned, and after a while, the speed of wandering around the Dizang Fruit increased significantly, and it continued to roar towards Ou Feng, looking extremely annoyed.
After about ten breaths, it seemed that he finally couldn't resist Ou Feng's provocation, roared, jumped up like lightning, and pounced on Ou Feng.
