Chapter 1396: Dangerous Pool
Looking at the elixir in front of them, everyone's eyes were hot, such a temptation was not so easy to resist.
Their faces struggled, but in the end they forcibly held back and did not go to collect the elixir on the other side of the river.
The short man asked, "Sir, I'm sure those people will reappear, but are you sure you can catch them?" ”
"Even if I say yes, I'm afraid you won't be at ease, right?" Qin Shi said lightly.
Hearing this, he nodded slightly: "That's true, so, we will immediately go back to Kongming Mountain to find someone to help, you shouldn't mind, right?" ”
"No, you can go find someone, but you'd better be careful not to leak the news. At this time, those people may be staring at Kongming Mountain, if they are aware of it, they will startle the snake, but don't blame me for not reminding you. Qin Shi shook his head, he hadn't planned to pay attention to this medicine field, and naturally he wouldn't stop them from finding someone to help.
Moreover, it's good that the people from Kongmingshan are here, after all, there are only three people in the Qin Dynasty, and if there are too many opponents, it will be difficult for them to take care of them.
Seeing Qin Shi agreeing so readily, and his attitude was calm, several people were immediately relieved. At the same time, they were also secretly grateful to Qin Shi.
After all, not everyone can face so many elixirs without being moved.
The short man thought for a while, this time the matter was very important to Kong Mingshan, and he couldn't be sloppy, so he said: "Sixth brother, you are the most powerful person here, so you can go back and inform the master of them." ”
"No problem, be careful."
The sixth brother nodded, and then said to the three of Qin Shi: "I'll go back to Kongming Mountain first, and I'll bother the three of you to take care of my friends." ”
"Let's go back quickly." Qin Shi nodded.
Although everyone has already made a decision, they will not collect the elixir from the opposite side for the time being.
However, standing by the river and looking at it like this still made them feel a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Qin Shi said: "This is a canyon, and there is actually a small river, and I checked it just now, the space is not small, and we haven't reached the end in some places." It's nothing now, we're going to walk around, what about you? ”
"Let's stay here, if the people from Kongmingshan come, it's not good if they can't see us." The short man said.
"It's fine for you to stay here, but it's too obvious to just stand here. When I came here just now, I saw a cave, not far from here, you can go over there, and you can see the situation on the other side of the river on the other side of the cave. ”
As he spoke, Qin Shi pointed to a bush behind him.
There were traces of someone turning it over, and some branches were piled up on top of each other, just enough to block the hole. If it weren't for Qin Shi's reminder, they wouldn't have been able to notice.
"Thank you." A few people thanked each other, and without hesitation, quickly went to the direction of the cave.
And Qin Shi walked down the river.
The water of the river is so clear that you can clearly see the stones inside. The stones were polished to a very smooth surface, like delicate marbles.
If it hadn't been for a long time, it wouldn't have had such an effect.
The Moon Protector asked curiously, "Qin Shi, where are we going?" ”
"Just take a look." Qin Shi said.
"You think there's something wrong with the river?" Song Guangming suddenly asked.
Qin Shi smiled: "In this place, there is a small river, which is not a strange thing. It's just that the elixir here grows so well, what do you think is the reason? ”
"You mean, the reason why so many elixirs can grow here is because of the river?" Song Guangming was stunned for a moment and looked at Xiaohe again.
It's just that, in his opinion, this small river is not special except for being relatively clear.
Qin Shi smiled: "The growth of elixir also needs to absorb nutrients, under this canyon, after such a long time, even if the geology here is special, it can't support it for such a long time." However, this small river is enduring, and I am afraid that there is some connection between the two. ”
"You have a point, but shouldn't we go upstream in that case?" Song Guangming said strangely.
"Don't worry, the upstream naturally has to look at it. However, this source may not be too easy to find, so let's see where the river flows first. Qin Shi said lightly.
Whether it's the source or the destination of the water, there must be something peculiar.
Others couldn't feel it, but Qin Shi knew that this river contained powerful spiritual power, just like the spring water in Qingling Mountain, which was very helpful for cultivation.
However, the spring water of Qingling Mountain is very soft and can be absorbed directly, while the spiritual power of the river here is more chaotic and needs to be refined.
And the elixir is automatically absorbed and slowly refined, and it naturally grows very fast.
The river flows downward, and if it gathers in one place, it will surely be a treasure land.
Now, Qin Shi has reached the eighth layer of True Qi, and it is very difficult to enter the ninth layer of True Qi, if he can find a cultivation treasure land, it will be very important for him.
Moreover, instead of waiting here and not knowing how long it will take, it is better to investigate first. But they couldn't stay away for too long, so they chose to explore it more simply.
The river meandered down, and the fish in it were very active, and when the three of them were hungry, they caught a few small fish in the river and roasted them.
There are many types of fish here, but the most common one is a slender swordfish with a snow-white body.
This fish has a long mouth, like a sharp sword, and swims very quickly in the water, and the impact formed is not weak.
Qin Shi saw with his own eyes that this swordfish smashed a stone through.
However, it is not difficult to catch this fish, Song Guangming is a master of fishing, a wooden thorn, interspersed in the water continuously, and caught seven or eight.
Wear it in a string and put it on the fire for a while, and the aroma will overflow.
Although the size of the swordfish is not large, the meat is delicious, and it is a rare and excellent product.
Qin Shi and Song Guangming feasted on it, so happy; The Moon Protector is to gently tear off a piece of shark fin, put it in your mouth and chew it slowly, which looks a lot more elegant.
After eating, Moon Protector and Song Guangming were full of intoxication, and said with a smile: "This fish is good, after eating it, the internal qi has increased a lot, it is like taking a big tonic." ”
"This swordfish lives in this river full of spiritual power, which is naturally not ordinary, the elixir can absorb spiritual power, but more of it is absorbed by these fish. Therefore, in comparison, perhaps the value of this fish is more precious than those elixirs. Qin Shi smiled, but he was not surprised at all.
However, it is a pity that the spiritual power contained in this swordfish, after being absorbed by him, did not enhance too much true qi.
In comparison, the effect is far inferior to that of Song Guangming and Yue Protector, the two ancient warriors.
As soon as Song Guangming heard that this fish was a treasure, he immediately said, "When you leave, you must catch a few more and go back." ”
In this regard, Qin Shi had no opinion.
The trio then continued along the riverbank, down the river.
It wasn't long before the river entered a small pond and there was no trace of it.
"Huh? How come there is only one pool here? Song Guangming was shocked, so much river water poured in, and all of them actually entered the pool.
However, there was no sign of any growth in the pond.
Qin Shi's eyes lit up: "This place must not be simple, maybe this pool is connected to other places, but we can't see it." ”
"Yes, the water must have gone somewhere else through the pool." The Moon Protector also nodded and said, "Perhaps, there is a passage to other places under this pool. ”
"That's what I thought too." Qin Shi nodded.
"Since you're here, let's go down and have a look." Song Guangming said suddenly.
This river is full of spiritual power, just eating a few fish just now made his internal qi grow a lot, if he finds any more treasures, it will also be a big opportunity for him, naturally he doesn't want to miss it.
Qin Shi also had this idea, however, he didn't act immediately, but looked around.
In front of this pool, there is no road, there is a high-rise cliff.
He reached out and touched the cliff, and suddenly felt a cold breath coming from it.
Obviously, the cliff is very humid due to the influence of the river all year round.
Other than that, there is no other special place here, Qin Shi thought for a while, and said: "The people from Kongming Mountain shouldn't come so quickly, let's go first and have a look, but we still have to be careful." ”
Song Guangming had already had this plan, and suddenly said, "I'll go down and have a look first." ”
As soon as the words fell, he had already jumped into the pool, and then quickly dived.
After a while, he was nowhere to be seen.
Although the pool is clear, I don't know how deep it is.
At first, there were some ripples on the water, but soon calm returned.
The Moon Protector frowned slightly: "It's been so long, he hasn't come out yet, I'll go down and take a look." ”
"Or wait a little longer, in case there's danger?" Qin Shi hurriedly shook his head.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the pool to churn suddenly, and then Song Guangming rushed out of it, jumped to the shore, and gasped for breath.
Qin Shi turned his head to look, secretly frightened in his heart.
Because, at this time, Song Guangming's body was covered with blood, mixed with the pool water flowing out, and he looked very miserable.
"What's going on?" Qin Shi stared at him and found that there were many wounds on his body, and those wounds were very irregular, looking like they had been bitten by something.
Song Guangming's face was pale, and he said with palpitations: "This pool is very deep, but there is indeed a passage to other places below. I wanted to swim over to have a look, but I didn't expect that there were many black plants in the passage, and I accidentally got entangled in a seaweed, and the wound on my body was cut out by the black algae. ”
"Is there anything else besides that black algae?" Qin Shi asked.
"I didn't find it, I thought there would be a beast in the water like a swordfish, but luckily it wasn't, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to quit." Song Guangming shook his head and sighed.
At this moment, the Moon Protector was also secretly glad that Qin Shi had stopped her, if she went down, it was likely that she would end up with a similar fate as Song Guangming.
