Zhongzhou covers an extremely wide area, and the monks of the Zhongzhou cultivation circle call the places outside of Middle Earth and the nine major sects guarding the border of Middle Earth as the wild land, and the Taishang Sect is in the north of Middle Earth, and the places outside the sect are called Northern Frontier, of course, most people habitually call Northern Frontier the Northern Wilderness.

The Northern Wilderness is inaccessible, but it is definitely not desolate, on the contrary, it is full of various medicinal materials and demon beasts, and it is a rare place for Taishang Sect to experience near the sect. The medicinal materials collected by Changning are all used by monks below the foundation to quench their bodies, so naturally they will not be too precious, before she came, she didn't take this sect task seriously at all, and felt that with her current strength, it should be no problem to pick these herbs, but when she really started collecting, she realized that she was too naïve!

Picking herbs here is completely different from her picking herbs in the secret realm, she has no purpose in picking herbs in the secret realm, she picks the herbs she knows when she sees them, and the aura is rich in the secret realm, and there are elixirs everywhere, the most on the ground here are weeds, and the herbs are sandwiched in the weeds if there is a slight omission, and most of the medicinal materials that the sect lacks are not plants, after all, the plants required for these pills are ordinary medicinal herbs, and most of the sects can be planted.

Changning looked at the list she wanted to collect, Immortal Crane Grass, Wuling Huangjing, Psoralen, September Snow, and Flying Snake Horn, she just swept it away and didn't pay much attention to it, and when she recalled the true identity of the five flavor medicines, she had the urge to immediately rush back to the sect to give up the task, but fortunately, reason stopped her from this humiliating move. Among these five flavor medicines, only the crane grass is a real herb, the flying snake horn is the horn of the flying snake as the name suggests, and the remaining three medicinal materials -

Psoralen is a bone paste made from fiery tiger bones; September snow is a kind of small insect that will turn white after hatching in September, and a large area looks like white snow when it is gathered together. Changning knows the habits of these two creatures, and can find a place according to their preferences. But these are all on paper, and when she really puts it into practice, she often gets lost in the mountains and forests, and then goes to the sky, finds the right route against the compass and lands, and then continues to get lost......

I haven't sent it this day! When Changning went to heaven for the twelfth time, she finally made up her mind that she would go to pick the Flying Snake Horn and the Five Spirits Yellow Essence first, and the Flying Snake Horn would go to the Snake Cave, except for the slippery and fishy smell, everything else could be endured. What made Changning unbearable was the Five Spirits Yellow Essence, and she was very strange at first what kind of medicinal herb the Five Spirits Yellow Essence was? Could it be the yellow essence that contains the power of the five elements? Why hadn't she heard of this spirit plant? Later, after flipping through the medicine spectrum, she learned that the so-called Wuling Yellow Essence is the same principle as the civet cat coffee in the previous life, that is, the yellow essence fermented in the stomach of the Wuling rabbit.

But it's not her personality to retreat without a fight, isn't it disgusting, she lets the puppet collect it for herself. Changning sat on the red silk that turned into a cloud water pocket, and compared this map to find the Flying Snake Horn first, the other four medicinal materials were too difficult to find! Shen Baobao turned into the size of a thumb, sat on Changning's ear rings with his calves dangling, pretending to be a big round pearl, its two small leaves stood up, and raised his little fat arm, "Auntie, Lingling-"

"There's a spirit plant down there?" Changning asked, she would let Shen Baobao come out in this kind of nobody, but it was too ostentatious to hold a ginseng doll, so she let Shen Baobao disguise it.

"Yes." Shen Baobao nodded vigorously.

There are spirit plants here too? Changning was quite surprised, and pressed the red silk to walk in the direction that Shen Baobao pointed, the spiritual energy here is not too abundant, there are many spiritual medicinal materials, and spiritual plants are rare, in fact, the spiritual plants in the cultivation world are basically raised in the cave blessed land closed by the major environments, and it is very difficult to collect spiritual plants in the wild.

First, the spiritual veins in Middle-earth are almost all artificially removed, and secondly, even if the spiritual veins are not removed, the outside world is also scattered because the place is too wide, and the sect often has defensive formations to maintain, and the spiritual plants that grow in the sect are maintained by special personnel, and the spiritual energy and spiritual plants complement each other, and the spiritual plants in the wild are not to mention being artificially removed, and any insect pests and natural disasters can make the spiritual plants die halfway.

Changning let Hongya land on a mountain, and with a sweep of his senses, he saw a bush with small white flowers growing behind a boulder halfway up the mountain, which looked ordinary at first glance, but Changning's eyes lit up, isn't this a southern candle? The southern candle is a kind of spiritual plant, its rhizome is the best gold sore medicine, Changning's favorite is its berries, sweet and sour are very delicious, and can also be used to brew spiritual wine that warms and nourishes the meridians.

"Baby is amazing!" Changning took out the jade shovel and was about to step forward to dig up the entire southern candle by the roots, when a red shadow flashed and landed steadily on the boulder, and the sword light in his hand flashed, and the southern candle was uprooted.

"Well done." The young man's clear voice sounded, the red shadow was a young man in red, the young man looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, his expression was indifferent, his slender hand touched a golden retriever mouse between his palms, and gave it a pill, the mouse squeaked happily, and the young man's eyebrows were slightly bent.

From beginning to end, he didn't glance at Changning, Changning frowned slightly, she didn't go out to collect medicine much, but she also knew that when she encountered this kind of spiritual vegetation that the two of them discovered at the same time, if she didn't want to meet each other, she would usually discuss it first and then assign it. This young man's behavior was a little excessive, but it was just a southern candle, and Changning didn't want to care about it, so she raised her cloud and water pocket and left. Shen Baobao was so aggrieved that the pearls were a little deflated, and the two leaves drooped down, obviously the baby found Lingling first and was snatched away by the villains.

Changning raised his hand and touched the little pearl, "It's okay, let's go find Lingling again." ”

"Okay." Shen Baobao vowed to find a better one.

Under the guidance of Shen Baobao, Changning quickly found another spirit plant, as soon as she landed, the red-clothed young man reappeared, Changning's right hand was on the sword, looking at the red-clothed young man coldly, she was too lazy to quarrel with others for these not uncommon spirit plants, but it didn't mean that she could tolerate others stepping on her head again and again.

"Why are you again?" The young man in red saw that it was the masked woman he had just seen again, and his eyebrows showed disgust, "You guys are not finished!" I've told you a long time ago, I'm not interested in you! "Fun following him all day? It's better to fight for your own chance.

Where did the wonder come from? Changning looked at this red-clothed young man with too much self-confidence in disbelief, she couldn't help but look him up and down for a while, and felt that he didn't look scary, where did he get so much confidence?

But Shen Baobao couldn't help it, it didn't understand the meaning of the words of the young man in red, but it knew that those who spoke loudly to their aunt were bad guys! I'm going to die! It clenched its small fist, and the vines on the boy's side skewered up and attacked the boy. It couldn't tell the level of the young man's cultivation, but it knew that if the situation was dangerous, the aunt would definitely put herself in Qingwuju a long time ago, and the little ginseng's brain was sometimes very good.

The red-clothed young man flicked the sword in his hand, and the vines were shattered by his sword qi, and he raised his eyebrows and looked at the pearls on Changning's bun, "Grass and wood elves? You think stealing a spiritual object will make me look the other way? "Another sect disciple! The young man in red looked at the masked woman's gaze and became more and more disgusted, these women are simply crazy, even the grass and tree elves raised by the sect dare to steal out, they are not afraid of the sect being held accountable?

Most of the people who can raise grass and wood elves are above the middle level, or they are families with profound backgrounds, and the grass and wood elves have a long lifespan and slow practice, if they want them to open their minds as soon as possible, they must feed more spiritual fluid, ordinary monks themselves are not enough spiritual liquid, how can they be used to raise grass and wood elves, after the red-clothed young man reprimanded, he stepped forward to collect spiritual plants.

It can be considered a coincidence that this person robbed himself of a spirit plant once, but the second time it was all deliberate, right? Forget about these, he still dares to slander himself for stealing things! looks like he thinks he has a crush on him, how can a normal person be so inexplicable? Is he pretending to be crazy and stupid, trying to rob his spirit plant or is he deliberately provoking?

Changning raised his hand and raised a clear light towards the young man, Qingguang was fierce, Changning was not sure what this person meant, and wanted to capture him and ask carefully. She remembered that the master had told her thousands of times to beware of evil cultivators seeking money and killing people in the wilderness, and the actions of evil cultivators harming people were not fixed, and it was okay to pretend to be crazy and stupid to lower people's vigilance. Of course, if he is really sick, she will not compare with the patient, and if he is an evil cultivator, he will be captured and returned to the sect as a coolie.

"What do you do!" The young man in red was startled and jumped away, he didn't want this woman to do it without saying a word, he suddenly realized, "Demon girl, you want to make money and kill yourself!" He didn't want Changning to find the spirit plant twice, but he took it for granted, and his words were rude, ordinary monks would definitely think that he was plotting wrong, who would leave his hand in this kind of wilderness? I must kill it first. It is also Changning's reluctance to hurt people's lives without authorization, otherwise where would he have a way to live.

Where will Changning answer his words, and what is there in him that is worth killing for his own money? She annoyed that the young man had no virtue in his mouth, and the sword light under her hands became more and more fierce. Changning has a lot of magic weapons on her body, she is worried about the danger of her life when she is in the secret realm, and she always uses the magic weapon when fighting, this time she sees that this person is only a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, and intends to use him to feed the sword, in addition to summoning the red silk to protect herself, she is not even useful for the giant sword, and she has gathered her strength to fight with the young man in red.

Both of them are people with exquisite swordsmanship, the young man in red flew up and down with a sword, weaving a secret net, Changning's sword moves opened and closed, calm and vigorous, seemingly flawed everywhere, but in fact it was exquisite, the young man attacked left and right, and he couldn't find a breakthrough. His expression turned solemn, and he slapped it in his arms, and several fist-sized black balls rolled out of his waist, and the black balls turned into several fierce beasts and swooped towards Changning when they fell into the air.

These fierce beasts seem to be carved from a whole piece of wood, looking bulky, but in fact they are flexible, just like real beasts, Changning can't help but be a little curious, what is this? It doesn't look like a puppet, the joints of the puppet are very finely made, like the Baiming puppet that Yunhuang gave to Changning, and there are more than a thousand parts in one wing. This kind of sculpture carved from a whole piece of material, if you want to move freely, you usually have to put the spirit of the beast in it, but these wood carvings do not seem to have a spirit.

What is this? Changning was very curious, her hand shook, the Baiming puppet given by Yunhuang flew out, Baiming flapped his wings and flew, and the two fierce beasts were shattered at once, and the young man hurriedly took back the remaining few fierce beasts, these fierce beasts were carefully refined by him, but they couldn't be so damaged, he took back the fierce beasts, and a pair of black flags appeared in his hands, and as soon as he raised his hand, hundreds of golden insects the size of a human head rushed towards Changning violently.

With a little Changning's hand, the twelve flaminous cranes not only burned the golden insects clean, but also pounced on the red-clothed young man. The red-clothed young man's face was slightly pale, and he was scrambling to resist these real fires that he couldn't extinguish, and Changning didn't give him any chance to react, and the long sword slashed towards him, the sword light was like a golden rainbow, dazzling.

"Be merciful to your fellow Daoists!" A water dragon descended from the sky, firmly blocking Changning's sword light, and the red-clothed young man turned around and fled, avoiding the flaming crane from a distance.
