Qiyun Village, located in the eastern part of the Chaoyun Empire, is surrounded by mountains in the northeast, the sea in the south, and a large forest in the west.

The people in the village with a population of about four or five hundred live by fishing and hunting, and the people are simple, and the unique geographical location makes the people here rarely attacked by monsters and monsters, so although it is on the border of the Chaoyun Empire, it can be as peaceful as a paradise.

As soon as the sky dawned, the birds in the Great Forest of Hoshino began to chirp around as if they were afraid that they would not be able to grab insects to eat.

The Great Forest of Hoshino is the largest forest in the eastern part of the Chaoyun Empire, and there are countless beasts and monsters in it, strange flowers and plants, poisonous insects, birds and beasts can be seen everywhere, if people who do not often enter the forest enter here by mistake, I am afraid that if they are not lost here, they will also be eaten by beasts and monsters.

At this time, behind a small hill bag, two figures shuttled flexibly through the forest, both of which looked like one meter five or six.

The two of them each carried a one-meter-tall bamboo basket, and the two of them were not much bigger than this basket, but they could carry a basket full of medicinal herbs to skillfully shuttle through the forest, as if they were looking for something in the forest.

"Brother Yun, is it true that you can find the spirit of the grass here, we have picked so many grass grasses, but we still haven't seen the spirit of the grass grass, I'm hungry, I can't find it anymore, I'm going home for dinner, my mother made me braised pork." ”

One of the smaller figures said after the other.

"Hurry up, it's almost there, you know how to eat, after you find the spirit of the grass, you will have the money to go to the academy in the town, don't you want to become a strong man admired by the village flowers, hehe." ”

The slightly larger figure in front of him spoke, and his feet were a little faster.

"Hehe, Brother Yun, our Qiyun Village, let alone the strong, there is not even a spirit master, just rely on our qualifications, let's forget it. The figure behind said with a smile.

"You lazy, I knew I wouldn't bring you here, I will swallow the spirit of the grass by myself, and I can go to the town to eat a special meal with the money from the sale. The figure in front of him walked a little faster, and at the same time looked back at the figure behind him with a playful expression.

"Don't Brother Yun, didn't I look for you all night, it's dawn this day, the spirit of the grass likes the night, we can't find it, so we can only come back at night." The figure behind said.

"Shhhh ”

The figure in front suddenly stopped, and the figure behind it reacted quickly, otherwise it would have crashed into the young man in front.

These two figures, the one in the back is called Zhou Liang, and the one in front is called Guanyun, they are both from Qiyun Village, most of the people in Qiyun Village are surnamed Zhou Heguan, and Guan Yun is the son of the village chief of Qiyun Village.

The two of them often pick some herbs and wild fruits in the forest and take them to the vendors in the town to sell, of course, the money will not be handed over to the family, most of them keep a part of the sugar gourd, Guan Yun is an old money fan, and he doesn't know what to do with the money.

The village chief's father didn't give him much pocket money, so he often sneaked into the forest to pick some herbs and sell them.

Just a few days ago, Guan Yun accidentally found traces of the spirit of the grass in the forest, so he hurriedly asked his friend Zhou Liang to come to the mountain to look for it.

"What's wrong, Brother Yun. Zhou Liang looked at Guan Yun with a solemn expression and said in a low voice.

"Look what's under the banyan tree in front of you. Guan Yun pointed to a big tree in front of him where two people hugged each other, and said in a low voice.

I saw a green grass swaying in the wind, and at the top was a dandelion-like round white fluff, which was shining with a faint fluorescence, growing quietly under the tree.

"Spirit of Pucao?!!" Zhou Liang shouted in surprise, the tiredness on his face was completely covered by surprise, he swallowed his saliva, and prepared to pick it up.

As soon as he stepped out of his leg, he was suddenly grabbed by Guan Yun and quickly hid behind a boulder.

"Brother Yun, what are you doing, that's the spirit of the grass, hurry up and pick it down." Zhou Liang asked suspiciously.

I saw Guan Yun's face solemn, and he said in a low voice: "Shh, look at what is on that tree." ”

Zhou Liang wanted to see what made Brother Yun so nervous, just poked his head out to take a look, his pupils constricted instantly, and he quickly retracted his head, he didn't dare to breathe, his hand couldn't stop patting his chest, and he was almost so frightened that he peed his pants.

"What a big fire-streaked snake". Zhou Liang didn't dare to speak loudly, his eyes were full of fear, and he tiptoed and shrank his head.

I saw a snake lying on the banyan tree as thick as a small tree, five or six meters long, the snake has fiery red lines, and there are two small protrusions on the head of the inverted triangle snake, as if something is going to grow, the snake hyacinth spit out white gas, and the lines on the snake's body seem to be more red every time you exhale.

"If you had run over just now, there was a good chance that you would have entered the belly of this snake, and the spirit of the grass would not have been paught, and you yourself would have turned it into breakfast. Guan Yun looked at the fire-patterned snake and immediately said to Zhou Liang.

"Brother Yun, let's go, this fire-streaked snake is a demon beast that has accepted the spirit, once the village lost a lot of sheep, many adults went to look for it, only to find some wool in front of the mouth of a fire-streaked snake cave, for the safety of the village, spent a lot of money to invite the soul of the town to be the soul of the spirit, only to solve it, the two of us, even the teeth of this snake are not enough to stuff, at most it is a pre-dinner dessert. ”

Zhou Liang spat out a cold breath and said stupidly.

"Alas, the spirit of the grass that I finally found, it's no fun now, hurry, while the fire stripe snake is sleeping, let's !! quickly"

Guan Yun thought about it and sighed, he could only forget it, of course the spirit of this herb was valuable, but it was still his own life that was valuable, Guan Yun spared his life more than anyone else, and he would definitely not take this risk.

But today, the two of them were so unlucky that they stuffed their teeth when they drank cold water.

Chirp!!!

Suddenly, a bird on the banyan tree fluttered its wings and landed on the fire-streaked snake, taking the fiery red lines as a red worm and pecking hard.

Whoa, whoa

The leaves on the banyan tree fell like chaff, and I saw the fire-streaked snake stretch out suddenly, and its two scarlet eyes searched around to see if it was the one who didn't want to live to disturb his cultivation breakthrough.

"It's not good, it's been discovered, it's slippery. Zhou Liang saw the fire pattern snake wake up, thought he had found them, and shouted loudly.

"You stupid, run !!" Guan Yun really wanted to beat Zhou Liang, obviously the fire stripe snake didn't find them, this scream, it's hard to find out, pull Zhou Liang up, pull out his legs and run, nonsense, if you don't run at this time, your life will not be guaranteed.

The fire snake was at the critical moment of the breakthrough, and was interrupted to break through, of course, angry, when he heard that scream, he suddenly burst out and rushed over with a roar.

Don't look at the huge size of this fire pattern snake, the speed of this rush out is unusually fast, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed to a place less than ten meters away from Guan Yun and them.

Suddenly, a red light flashed on the snake's scales, and the fire streak snake opened its bloody mouth, and a wave of heat erupted from its mouth, mixed with sparks, towards Guanyun and them, and the high heat made the air distort for a while.

"Ahh

The violent impact pushed Zhou Liang out at once, not to mention the road in this mountain, not even flat land, this push just pushed Zhou Liang to a depression, the center of gravity suddenly unstable, and plunged into the soil.

"Zhou Liang !!!" Guan Yun saw that Zhou Liang was tripped, the fire stripe snake opened its big mouth and bit towards Zhou Liang fiercely, Guan Yun was shocked into a cold sweat, seeing that his dead friend was about to be eaten by the fire stripe snake, Guan Yun randomly picked up an arm-thick branch under his feet and swung towards the fire stripe snake...
