Chapter 588: The Mysterious Three Lions
The purpose of this trip to the secret realm has been made clear before entering, who is looking for the most spiritual herbs and elixirs in the competition, and who has the best value, if they encounter a magical beast, who can kill and who can accept it, these are all counted in the final competition.
Although the numbers on both sides are not the same, in the end it is the average that is compared, and it is nothing.
Lei Tiancheng, who was masked, walked over and stared at Gu Xiaotian with a little provocation: "Don't worry, our Southern Regions team will definitely win, do you believe it or not?"
As soon as Gu Xiaotian saw the red spots on his forehead, he couldn't help but want to laugh: "Prince Lei, your face is really out of the way, right?"
"You ......" I can't tell which pot Gu Xiaotian is pot can't be opened, and the angry Lei Tiancheng snorted.
A young man dressed in a moon-white costume walked over and said lightly: "Little prince, don't worry about them, as long as we show them the results, we will know who is strong and who is weak." ”
This is the little son of General Zuo under Chizun in the Southern Regions, called Song Chen, although what he said was very reasonable, but the tone was strange, as if he looked down on Gu Xiaotian and the others.
Immediately, the Lanting County Lord of the Southern Regions walked up, she was wearing a pink palace dress, with a double bun on her head, and a jade lock inlaid with gold and jade around her neck, exuding a faint aura.
She is only eight years old, similar to the little princess Lei Qingyun, and the relationship between the two is also good, and she also has some say in the team in the Southern Regions. She spoke: "The trial time is only three days, if you want to waste time, this county lord will not accompany you." ”
Glancing at Song Chen lightly, she walked forward, very cold.
Immediately, three young men followed behind her, only arching their hands at Lei Tiancheng: "Little prince, let's go refuel first, you also refuel." ”
Such a relationship is a little strange for Gu Xiaotian to watch.
It seems that the imperial power in the Southern Regions is not very heavy, even if Lei Tiancheng is a little prince, other noble children will not be too respectful to him, at most respectful. As for that girl, she seems to be even more arrogant, which is rare in the Eastern Wilderness.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, Little Prince Gu, the trial starts now, and in three days, let's compete again to see who gains the most! If you lose, hehe......" He didn't say the rest of the words, turned around and walked towards a dense forest on the right.
The rest of the aristocratic children followed him and faded away.
Gu Xiaotian turned around and said to Shangguan Zuodong and the others: "Okay, let's confirm it here, do you still have any questions about what Wang Taifu said last night?"
Zuo Dong, Shangguan Zixu and the others were already eager to try, and immediately said, "No, let's start!"
Everyone's goal - to find all the spirit grass spirit beasts here!
Everyone walked towards a field on the left, where nature and the Southern Regions team were separated, and they could see a vast expanse in the distance, with all kinds of wildflowers blooming and lush vegetation, as if all kinds of precious spiritual grasses were hidden in it.
Gu Xiaotian looked at everyone and said, "Let's go our separate ways, a day later, with the bell as the signal, each will return and check the harvest, do you have any opinions?" As he spoke, he shook a silver bell in his hand.
This is given to them by Wang Changzhi, one for each person, as long as they shake the bell, they can detect the fluctuations of the Dao through its resonance, so as to find the location of the other person holding the bell. Although it can't talk, it's also a rare communication artifact.
"Okay, let's split up. When Zuo Dong heard this, he immediately glanced at Shangguan Zixu, turned around and ran forward.
I didn't expect them to be so fast, and then it was Hu Yu'er and Wen Changsheng, who also chose a direction to leave, leaving only Gu Sheng, the little son of the ancient family.
Gu Sheng is nine years old this year, he seems to be a little taciturn, he basically doesn't talk much along the way, even at the palace banquet, he didn't play those Rubik's cubes, and he was not interested at all.
At a young age, he looks extremely old, which does not match his age at all.
"Or, Gu Sheng, you ...... with me and Xiaoshuai"
Before Gu Xiaotian's words were finished, Gu Sheng turned around and left, ignoring him.
Shaking his head, Gu Xiaotian was too lazy to do much, since he wanted to act on his own, it would be up to him. Anyway, there are fifty guards in the Southern Regions nearby, and if something really happens, people nearby will rush to the rescue.
This is just a trial, not a life-and-death fight, as long as you are careful, it is not dangerous.
Nodding at Sikong Shuai, Gu Xiaotian finally released the Spirit Rhino Rabbit that had been sleeping in his pocket and started to act.
"Wow, little master, is this the secret realm? As soon as the spirit rhino rabbit came out, its ears were cocked, and it seemed very energetic and curious.
With a flick of its wings, it flew up and flew towards a bush in the distance.
Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai followed, and began to look for them in the nearby grass as they walked.
"Little master, look, this is a spirit grass, right?" the spirit rhino rabbit shouted.
Did you find it so quickly?
Gu Xiaotian's eyes lit up, and he ran over, only to see the spirit rhino rabbit squatting next to the shrub, pointing to the root of the bush full of small white flowers and saying, "Look, this spirit grass is Phalaenopsis!"
Phalaenopsis is indeed a spiritual grass, but it is the most ordinary second-order spiritual grass, except for those who have just entered the cultivation can use it, there are also some low-level demonic beasts that can eat it, and it is generally regarded as a weed by people.
Sikong Shuai laughed: "Maomao, we are here to find good things, don't care about this worthless spirit grass." ”
"What's valuable?" the Spirit Rhino flapped his ears.
It's just a pet, and it doesn't understand what the value is in the mouth of the little master.
"Value is ......" Gu Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "It's Maomao, you also like to eat, it's valuable, understand?"
Because the Spirit Rhino Rabbit only eats things rich in a lot of spiritual energy, whether it is a spirit weapon, a spirit fruit, a spirit flower, or even a spirit stone, it eats it correctly, so it should understand it best.
The spirit rhino rabbit cracked open its three-petaled mouth: "I understand, although this spirit grass is beautiful, I don't like to eat it, I understand." ”
"Little master, let's go on. So saying, it flew up again and headed for a grove in front of it.
The farther away from the entrance of the secret realm, Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai began to discover good spirit grass.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the edge of a lake, the clear water surface was full of white flowers, the two of them washed their hands by the lake, and suddenly found a clump of spiritual grass growing by the lake.
The four-grade white blue grass can refine the Qingxin Pill, which is still of some value.
This was the first time that the two of them had come out alone to look for the spirit grass, although the spirit grass of the fourth grade was much worse than the one in Gu Xiaotian's space ring, but after all, they had found it themselves.
"Come on, Sikong Shuai, these white orchids are not bad, pick a little. ”
As Gu Xiaotian spoke, he began to use a small shovel to pick the roots, and after a while, he picked more than a dozen plants, as if they were in a jade box where the spirit grass was preserved. Sikong Shuai also picked more than a dozen plants, and the two stopped.
Just as he was about to leave and continue to move forward, Gu Xiaotian saw the Spirit Rhino Rabbit squatting by the lake, staring at the water, not knowing what he was doing.
"Little master, there are fish in this water. ”
"Of course there are fish in the water. Gu Xiaotian beckoned Mao Mao to leave quickly.
"Xiaoyu, then I'll leave, maybe I won't have a chance to talk to you in the future...... Uh? what...... Ah, you say it again?" Suddenly, the spirit rhino rabbit's beard curled up and looked a little surprised.
After it finished talking to the fish swimming in the water, it ran over and grabbed Gu Xiaotian's trouser leg: "Little master, it's not good, the fish told me that there is danger ahead." ”
What, dangerous?
Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai glanced at each other and frowned.
They all know the ability of the Spirit Rhino, not only can they detect the thoughts of others, but they can also communicate with many spirit beasts and monsters. What do the little fish in this lake mean by what they say?
"Ask again, what is the danger?" Gu Xiaotian and the others returned to the lake and asked the Spirit Rhino Rabbit to ask again.
The spirit rhino rabbit squeaked in the water for a while, gesturing with his hands and feet, and finally finished speaking, and said to Gu Xiaotian: "Little master, what the fish said, the danger is a kind of big bird, specializing in eating them, every time they encounter this kind of big bird, they can only hide, otherwise they will be caught and eaten." ”
Hearing this, Gu Xiaotian almost laughed: "I see, it's a big bird that eats fish! Then let's just be careful, how can there be no magical beasts in this secret realm, pay attention." ”
Sikong Shuai is still a little eager to try, if you really encounter the magic bird, hit one to barbecue, maybe it tastes good.
Without much thought, the two of them continued to move forward.
This secret realm is indeed quiet, like a natural back garden, in just half a day, Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai found twelve fifth-grade spirit grasses, two six-grade spirit grasses, and the rest have more than fifty fourth-grade spirit grasses.
But the higher-grade ones didn't find out, and they didn't know if they had any.
Suddenly, there was a voice in a dense forest in front of them, Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai were about to rest, when they suddenly saw a spotted purple leopard rushing out, and a spirit beast like a roe deer was running for their lives.
"Xiaotian!" shouted Sikong Shuai.
It is not uncommon for a spirit beast to escape for its life, but that spotted purple leopard is a six-grade demonic beast, and for ordinary spirit master-level cultivators, it is basically a dead end.
But Gu Xiaotian and they ...... is already at the peak of a saint, and for a six-grade demonic beast, it is simply handy.
Sikong Shuai rushed over directly, and with a wave of his hand, he killed the spotted purple leopard, but the spirit beast that fled for his life was gone.
"Six-grade Warcraft, it's a bit useful, put it away. "Gu Xiaotian perfectly inherited the picky character of his mother Gu Lanyi, although he didn't look down on it, he wouldn't let it go.
Put it into the space ring, the two of them also felt tired, and were about to rest for a while to eat something, when they just sat down, and suddenly felt a slight vibration from the ground, and heavy footsteps came.
An indescribable momentum came out of the dense forest, and the two of them suddenly became alert and turned their heads to look at the dense forest.
A white, lion-like monster walked out slowly.
It had three heads, the fur on its body was golden and shiny, and there were three eyes on one of its heads in the middle, and this vertical pupil was staring at Gu Xiaotian and Sikong Shuai, full of dangerous eyes.
Neither of them had ever seen this kind of demonic beast, and the mysterious and powerful momentum also made the two of them vigilant.
"What kind of demonic beast is this?" Gu Xiaotian took a step back.
"I haven't seen it, is there still a divine beast in this secret realm?" Sikong Shuai was surprised.
The three lions walked over slowly, their eyes fell on the spirit rhino rabbit, slightly strange, and then looked at Gu Xiaotian and the others, and actually spoke: "It's been tens of thousands of years, and finally someone is here again." Kid, do you want to die or live?"
