Chapter 12: Flowerworms

"If the elixir is so easy to find, it won't be so valuable, we haven't reached the Sun Never Setting Mountain Range, but in the outer layer, there are many monks who come to the mountain range every day, and most of the medicinal herbs have been dug up, leaving only those medicinal herbs that the demon beasts take care of, or those that grow in some hidden places, you can only try your luck," Meng Huanran didn't mind Chen Xin's identity that he couldn't cultivate, and patiently explained to Chen Xin, which made Chen Xin can't help but look at Meng Huanran a few times in his heart.

The three of them carefully observed everything around them, and after half an hour passed, Chen Xin suddenly discovered the abnormality in front of him, and shouted: "Be careful of your step,"

He stepped forward and grabbed Meng Huanran and Li Yi in time, the two of them were shocked and stopped, only to find that there was a dark deep hole in front of them, but it was covered with weeds, so it was not obvious, and the two almost fell into the hole, but fortunately they were pulled by Chen Xin.

In this mountain range, falling into an unknown hole, the danger is unpredictable, and the two of them looked at Chen Xin gratefully.

After a while, Meng Huanran squatted down with a solemn expression, looked at the cave, and threw a stone, which made a crisp sound when it landed.

Meng Huanran nodded, and said to Chen Xin and Li Yi: "This cave is full of aura, we have to go down and take a look, there may be spiritual grass, you two follow behind me, don't go far," instructed Chen Xin and the two, Meng Huanran jumped in first, and from the sound of stones falling to the ground, the two of them also judged that the hole was about ten meters high.

During this period of time, although Chen Xin kept strengthening his body every day, but at a distance of ten meters, he was estimated to break his leg if he jumped, and his face was a little embarrassed, Li Yi smiled mysteriously and patted Chen Xin's shoulder, and before the latter could react, Li Yi directly pulled Chen Xin's arm and jumped down.

Chen Xin, who was weightless in an instant, grabbed Li Yi's arm stubbornly, for fear of falling, but in the blink of an eye, the two fell into the cave, Chen Xin whispered: "Thank you, Brother Li!"

Meng Huanran waited for the two of them to come down, then took out the night pearl and groped into the dark hole in front of him, the hole could not see five fingers, the night pearl could shine up to five meters in front, the black hole in front was like an abyss, dark and seeping, so that Chen Xin, who had never seen the world, was full of fear.

He subconsciously looked at Meng Huanran's huge body in front of him, and his heart was strangely relieved, the two hurriedly followed, the passage became more and more narrow, twists and turns, and could only accommodate the next person, the three of them had to bow their heads to move forward now, walked for about half an hour, and finally saw a glimmer of light in front, Meng Huanran in the front slowed down, and made a silent gesture to the two people behind, and the two of them lightened their steps and saw the end of the hole.

The deepest part of the cave entrance is actually a basin, there is a hole dozens of meters above, the bright light is shining down from above, and in the middle of the basin directly illuminated by the cave entrance, there is a purple bewitching flower, budding to be released, the eyes of the three people, at once attracted by this mysterious and bewitching flower, can not be removed for a long time.

Li Yi was the first to exclaim: "Purple Xuanhua! It turned out to be a second-level spirit grass purple Xuanhua!" Chen Xin also recognized it at the moment, this second-level spirit grass purple daylily is very precious, among the other second-level spirit grasses, the ranking is high, its petals are said to have the effect of washing the marrow, it is an indispensable taste of spirit grass in the marrow washing pill, even Li Fu has only three plants, and the color of the petals is far less bright than this one.

Li Yi's eyes were very hot, and he was about to jump down to pick it up, but when he was about to act, he was stopped by Meng Huanran in front, "Don't be reckless, you look underground." ”

After hearing this, the two looked carefully at the ground in the basin, and found that in the soil within a kilometer radius of Zixuanhua, there were many black worms wriggling, but the light here was dim, and it was difficult to find if you didn't look carefully.

These worms are two feet long, five fingers wide, black-red in their bodies, and have only a large mouth on their heads, which are covered with antennae, and it can be seen that they rely on the antennae on their mouths to identify directions.

"These insects are called five-flowered earthworms, they are first-class demon beasts, they move forward by wriggling, they move slowly, they can spew poisonous smoke from their mouths, and they will festering when they get on their skin, if they are alone, they are easy to deal with, but these insects generally go out in groups," Meng Huanran explained to the two of them with a lot of knowledge.

"If it's a group battle, there is usually a leader, if we kill this leading demon beast first, will the rest scatter and flee?" Chen Xin said what he thought in his heart.

Meng Huanran glanced at Chen Xin appreciatively and nodded: "You're right, as long as you kill the leading five-flowered earthworm, the rest is not enough to worry about, but I carefully observed, there is no trace of the five-flowered earthworm, presumably the leading five-flowered earthworm must have hid underground, and now there is only one way to startle the snake!"

Chen Xin looked at her puzzled, and was about to ask how to startle the snake.

I saw her pull out her long sword, and a sword qi swept to the ground, and the five-flowered earthworm underground was suddenly frightened and furious, Chen Xin's face was shocked, and he retreated in a hurry, and suddenly, a five-meter-long five-flowered earthworm drilled out of the ground in front of him, this five-flowered earthworm is different from others, and has colorful colors on its body, red, yellow, black, and green, and its mouth is also dark red, which is obviously the leader of the five-flowered earthworm.

The four-colored five-flowered earthworm squirmed its huge body, and it stood upright, opened its huge mouth, and spewed out a five-colored smoke at Chen Xin and the three of them, Rao is Chen Xin, who had no practice, also secretly said in his heart that it was not good, at this time, Meng Huanran took out three white pills unhurriedly, took one for himself first, and gave the remaining two to the two,

"This is the Closed Poison Pill, you eat it, within half an hour, don't be afraid of this poisonous smoke, I will slaughter this monster, you two be more careful," After finishing speaking, Meng Huanran stomped his feet on the spot, jumped into the air with his strength, and fought with the four-colored five-flowered earthworm, "Bang, bang, bang," the three swords went down and slashed at the body of the five-flowered earthworm, and the body of this demon beast was unscathed, leaving only three pale white traces.

Chen Xin and the others had no time to pay attention to Meng Huanran's battle, because the first-level five-flower earthworms underground were all squirming towards the two of them at this moment, and they were already close at hand, Li Yi pulled out the big knife on his waist and slashed down at the insects below, the knife was bloody, after all, the five-flowered earthworms of this level were different from the four-colored ones, relying on poisonous smoke, and the body's defense was weak, Chen Xin saw this, pulled out the dagger in his arms, and aimed at the insects below.

This dagger is worthy of Meng Huanran's treasure, with one blow, the five worms were cut in two, but it was much easier than Li Yi who practiced the third layer of the qi realm next to him, but Chen Xin did not cultivate in the end, more than a dozen knives went down, he felt that the strength in his body had been squeezed out, his arm was sore, he gritted his teeth and persevered, and continued to fight, time passed minute by minute, at this time, one more second, the situation was dangerous, and it was very difficult.

I don't know how long it took, just when Chen Xin felt weakly and fell, Meng Huanran's battle next to him finally came to an end. I saw her shout: "The Sword of Robbery" rose and fell, and the leader of the five-flowered earthworm was cut into two knots by the sword, fell to the ground and twitched twice, and then ran out of breath. The remaining five-flowered earthworms, knowing that they had lost their backbone, were in chaos in an instant, twisted their bodies, no longer entangled Chen Xin and the others, and hurriedly fled in all directions, and they all went underground.
