Chapter 33: The Stars

"You're so stupid, after we dig deep, we will block the cave for a while, and then continue to dig and dig a tunnel, and we can get rid of this group of star wolf beasts by surprise. ”

Tao Yuyan had already guessed Ji Fan's intentions, so she glanced at Qu Yu angrily.

"Miss Yu Yan is really smart. ”

Ji Fan praised Tao Yuyan, but he still stared at the wolves around him who were waiting quietly.

Just a cup of tea time passed, and when the cave was dug out three feet deep, a large number of star wolf beasts finally rushed over.

Ji Fan didn't wait for the other party's attack, and retreated directly into the cave.

The entrance of this cave was only one person high and two feet wide, and Ji Fan hid in it, so he only had to face the attack of a star wolf beast, and the situation became much safer.

Whew!

The wolves attacked again, and they could easily rush to the mouth of the cave, but only one could get into the cave, and then the narrow cave made it impossible for them to dodge Ji Fan's sword.

If one is killed, the corpse will be dragged out by the Star Wolf Beast behind, and then the second one will be killed......

After losing four more companions in quick succession, the wolves finally stopped this senseless suicidal assault and just stared viciously outside at the mouth of the cave.

No matter how provocative Ji Fan was, the wolves no longer attacked, but the cave was still being dug deeper and deeper.

The stones piled up in the cave were thrown out by Ji Fan piece by piece.

More and more wolves gathered, and finally, a second-level star wolf beast that could spit out star-striped demon light arrived, and the wolves also launched a new round of attacks.

The star-patterned demon light of the second-level star wolf beast continued to shoot into the cave from the outside, blasting into the debris and splashing.

Ji Fan and the three of them had already prepared for this, and they threw pieces of gravel in front of them, and soon blocked a section of the cave.

Bang bang bang......

The explosion kept coming, and the whole cave was shaking slightly.

"Keep digging!"

Ji Fan also swung his long sword and dug hard.

With the three of them working together, the cave grew deeper and longer, and the stones they dug up were blocked behind them.

As a result, the cave is getting more and more blocked, and the three of them are getting safer and safer.

"It's just a hill, we can't dig it through, maybe the wolves have surrounded it. ”

Ji Fan stopped and said, "Let's start digging down now, digging ten zhang deep, and then continue to dig horizontally." ”

"Hurry up, I'm feeling a little stuffy. ”

Qu Yu said worriedly: "If we delay here for too long, I'm afraid that we will be suffocated to death." ”

"I did ignore this problem, so let's just dig three feet deep!"

Ji Fan nodded and began to swing his sword downward.

He knew that even though he was not under attack at the moment, the wolves could not be idle.

They can dig caves, and wolves can scratch a cave with their claws.

The earth and rocks dug out by digging the ground happened to block the section of the cave that was still empty above the heads of the three people, and there was no place to put extra stones above their heads, so the three of them began to dig horizontally.

After digging horizontally for nearly half an hour, digging about 300 zhang, Qu Yu and Tao Yuyan were really uncomfortable, and Ji Fan shouted to stop.

Then the three of them dug more than four feet above their heads, and finally returned to the ground.

They were more than a hundred feet away from the small cliff at this time, and when they came out, they heard a wolf howl.

If it weren't for the lush vegetation in this foggy forest and the fog, they might still be able to clearly see the white wolf shadows.

Call!

A demonic wind is coming.

Ji Fan swept away with a wave of his hand, killing a weaker star wolf beast on the spot.

"Let's go, there's a star wolf beast patrolling nearby!"

Ji Fan reminded in a whisper, and ran quickly with Qu Yu and the others.

It took more than half an hour to travel, and when midnight came, the three of them stopped.

All three were tired enough, and when they sat down, they were all out of breath and looked tired.

"Brother Ji Fan, we didn't run in the wrong direction, right?"

Qu Yu asked as he gasped.

Ji Fan looked up at the night sky, nodded and said, "That's right, we're heading deeper into the forest." ”

In the foggy forest, it is extremely easy to get lost, and it is unreliable to rely on the sun and vision during the day, and to look at the stars at night.

"I'm tired, let's eat and drink first. ”

Qu Yu took out some food from the package, as well as a bottle of fruit syrup.

"It seems to be a stream over there, and I went to wash it, and it was all dust, and it was really uncomfortable. ”

Tao Yuyan didn't eat or drink, but quietly got up and walked to the side.

"Sister Yuyan, it's very dangerous to take a bath here, you have to be careful. ”

Qu Yu reminded first, and then jokingly said: "I think you should eat and drink first, and then we will wash together, so that it will be safe and secure." ”

"Think beautifully!"

Tao Yuyan replied, and she had already arrived at the edge of the stream.

The creek was only one zhang wide, the stream didn't look deep, and it was only five or six zhang away from Ji Fan and Qu Yu, so she didn't have to worry about her safety.

She gently unfastened her clothes and slowly stepped into the stream.

She wasn't worried about being peeked at, because she knew that Ji Fan Gongzi was not that kind of villain, and with Ji Fan Gongzi watching, Qu Yu naturally didn't dare to sneak here.

"Brother Ji Fan, what are you going to do with this little girl?

After Tao Yuyan left, Qu Yu asked in a low voice while eating and drinking.

"I plan to take her to practice together, her cultivation qualifications are good, and she may be able to become a heroine in the future. ”

Ji Fan poured himself a big mouthful of fruit pulp, and after smacking his lips, he replied with a light smile.

"Since your cultivation qualifications are good, and you look beautiful like a flower, brother, you might as well accept it directly. ”

Qu Yu's eyebrows flew and danced.

"You're thinking too much. ”

Ji Fan shook his head and didn't express much of his thoughts.

"By the way, Brother Ji Fan, it seems very unusual for me to see your star-striped glow these days, it is half red and half white, it is really strange, what is the situation?"

Qu Yu actually wanted to ask this question all along, so he first used other topics to adjust the atmosphere between the two, and then asked it without a trace, so that it would not seem too deliberate.

"This is the reason for cultivating the exercises, and I can't say too much about the specifics, because it's a secret. ”

Ji Fan said perfunctorily, and while he was speaking, he had been on guard, especially paying attention to the movement on the other side of the stream.

"Since it's your secret, I won't ask for it anymore. ”

Qu Yu continued to eat and drink, and did not speak again.

"Ji Gongzi, come here!"

Tao Yuyan had only one tea time to leave, and she suddenly heard a shout on the other side of the stream.

Ji Fan Huoran got up, and with a flash, he rushed to the edge of the stream.

At this time, Tao Yuyan did not encounter any danger, she was still in the stream, and she was not even wearing clothes, but she looked down at the stream with a surprised face.

"Miss Yuyan, what's wrong?"

Ji Fan didn't notice any dangerous qi around him, and asked very puzzled.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Qu Yu only ran over at this time, he hid behind Ji Fan, and looked around nervously.

"Look what this is!"

Tao Yuyan squatted in the water at this time, only revealing her snow neck and head, and she raised an arm as white as a lotus root, pointing at her feet.

Ji Fan and Qu Yu looked over, and then they saw that something seemed to be flickering at the bottom of the stream.

Because the stream reflected the starlight in the night sky, the glimmer was not eye-catching, and Ji Fan and the others did not quickly find it.

Mo said that it was Ji Fan and the others who had just arrived, and Tao Yuyan bathed here for a cup of tea, and she had just discovered that glimmer.

Before she called out to Ji Fan, she carefully observed the faint light, and touched it with her toes, so that she was sure that it was not the starlight reflected in the stream, but a stone that would glow.

Ji Fan slowly stepped into the stream and came to Tao Yuyan's side.

He didn't look at Tao Yuyan's graceful body, but bent down very seriously and picked up the stone.

The glowing stone was not large, only the size of a walnut, with sharp edges and no regular shape, but it was flooded throughout, and faintly visible star patterns.

"Hehe, this is a star crystal, judging from its star power fluctuations, it should be just a low-grade star crystal. ”

There is no need to identify it very carefully, Ji Fan can recognize at a glance what this glowing stone is, he has never seen star crystals in this life, but he has seen a lot in his previous life.

"Wow! It's a star crystal!

Qu Yu said happily.

"The value of a low-grade star crystal is only more than a thousand star coins, what kind of fortune do you make?"

Ji Fan glanced at Qu Yu and said angrily.

"Oh, yes. ”

Qu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the exchange ratio of the lower grade star crystal and star coin, and could only smile awkwardly.

"How can there be a low-grade star crystal here?"

Tao Yuyan said puzzledly: "This creek is not hidden, there should be star beasts passing by from time to time, and the star beasts are very fond of star crystals, it is impossible for them not to find this star crystal?"

"I don't know. ”

Ji Fan was actually very puzzled, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Let's look upstream again, maybe there will be some gains." ”

Ji Fan and Qu Yu took the first step, and Tao Yuyan then went ashore and changed into a set of clean clothes before following behind.

The three of them walked along the bank of the creek all the way upstream, staring at the bottom of the creek, slowly moving forward, searching carefully.

Not long after, they found several more star crystals in a row, and happily, one of them was identified by Ji Fan as a medium-grade star crystal.

Medium-grade star crystals are more valuable than low-grade star crystals, and generally speaking, more than a hundred low-grade star crystals can be exchanged for a medium-grade star crystal.

If you exchange a medium-grade star crystal for star coins, you can also exchange it for at least 200,000 star coins.

"Let's wait. ”

Suddenly, Ji Fan stopped, frowned, and said, "Could this be a trick, someone or a star beast deliberately arranged these star crystals to lure a greedy person or star beast into a trap?"

"It's not impossible!"

Qu Yu also calmed down from the surprise, he thought that Ji Fan's worries were not unreasonable.

"But what if it's not a ruse?"

Tao Yuyan said loudly.

"Well, let's wait until daylight before moving on. ”

Ji Fan thought for a while and said: "If it weren't for some conspiracy, the star crystals here wouldn't have run away, if it's really a trap, we would be better able to deal with and watch out for it during the day." "Peerless Star Soul
