Chapter 542: White Orchid Fruit
Xiao Bao squinted slightly, his gaze swept over the young man, and finally rested on a badge on his chest, in which a grinning dog's head was carved.
Looking over the young man, looking at the thirty or so mercenaries wearing the same badge on their chests, Xiaobao blinked, it seems that these people should be the fierce dog mercenary group, one of the three major mercenary groups in Black Mountain City.
Looking at the mercenaries of these fierce dog mercenary groups, the degree of protection of the medicine collection team, it is obvious that they are also specially hired guards by Bafangzhai, and it seems that Bafangzhai's trust in the fierce dog mercenary group is much stronger than that of the guerrillas in front of them, otherwise, they would not have been allowed to be personal guards.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Xiao Bao didn't have much interest in the relationship between the young man and the fairy sister, so he shook his head and walked towards the Warcraft Forest with heavy steps again.
In the depths of the Warcraft Forest, everything was relatively calm, but not long after the team entered the Warcraft Forest, a small-scale Warcraft attack happened brutally in front of Xiaobao.
The attacker is a three-headed first-order demonic beast, named Bloodthirsty Wolf, this kind of demonic beast, distributed on the edge of the demonic beast forest, has fire attributes, sharp claws, strong physique, and even more deadly is that their bodies are extremely agile, and they can tear people's throats in the blink of an eye.
Due to the suddenness of the incident, several careless mercenaries, almost with piercing kung fu, lost their lives, one mercenary was bitten off his arm, one mercenary's neck was torn off alive, and there were three obvious scratches on the cowhide armor on the chest of one mercenary. And the internal organs and blood were constantly gushing out of the cracks in the leather armor, and the bloody state was unbearable.
Under attack. Everyone immediately shot out angrily, and in a moment, the three-headed first-order demonic beast was unexpectedly beaten to death by the group, and after killing the three-headed demonic beast, they did not find any trace of the magic crystal nucleus from their bodies, and in this regard, the mercenaries only sighed with a little regret. It is not uncommon to kill a demonic beast in the wild and return home at a high cost of casualties. So, they weren't too disappointed.
Killed three bloodthirsty wolves, lost four mercenaries, and wounded two mercenaries. The wounded mercenaries were sent to the medicine collection team in the rear. The fairy sister personally took action and carefully treated their wounds for them to stop the bleeding.
After the attack of the bloodthirsty wolf, the mercenary team that had suffered a loss became more cautious, however, in the Warcraft forest densely populated with Warcraft, they wanted to completely avoid Warcraft. Obviously impossible.
The team walked less than 500 meters away, and everyone was attacked by three waves of demonic beasts. However, fortunately, the mercenaries were outnumbered, and at the cost of a dozen mercenaries being slightly injured, they repelled all the attacks of the three waves of demonic beasts.
In the exploration team that followed ahead, Xiao Bao, who was unavoidable, also directly participated in a battle, but in the head-on battle with a first-order demonic beast, he narrowly forced it back with a slight advantage.
Looking at the monster that escaped cunningly after the attack was fruitless, Xiaobao gritted his teeth hatefully, if it weren't for the power of writing in his body being bound by the huge pen on his back, he was confident that he would definitely be able to kill the monster on the spot, but unfortunately...
However, Rao let the monster escape, but the strength shown by Xiaobao still impressed the surrounding mercenaries.
"Little brother, it's amazing, you can actually resist the Amethyst Golden Leopard, which is known for its strength."
"Tsk, you're so tough at a young age, and you'll be able to pay it back in the future?"
"Haha, this little guy is the youngest five-star boy in the team, right? Look at this strength, it's really true. ”
The cheers of the surrounding mercenaries caused a small commotion in the ranks, and everyone automatically omitted to question when they looked at the young man with a huge pen on his back.
In this kind of mercenary team that distinguishes status by strength, as long as you show admirable strength, you can gain the awe of others, which is a very simple and direct rule!
For these cheers, Xiaobao just smiled casually, and in his smile, he was neither pretentious nor smug, but just followed the team and continued to walk silently towards the medicine collection site.
"Everyone, it's close to the place where the medicine was collected, please take a break, everyone is tired after walking for so long." After walking some distance again, the woman's soft voice suddenly sounded in the quiet procession.
The pace of progress paused slightly, and the whole team stopped at the same time, turned around, looked at the woman in the white dress who did not have the slightest impurity in her smile, and nodded her head very honestly.
After a short discussion, more than a dozen mercenaries scattered around to stand on guard, while the others, sitting in place, regained the energy they had consumed a lot of because they were in a hurry.
Sitting on the ground, Xiaobao exhaled slowly, flicked his fingers, and a pale cyan Huili Pill appeared in the palm of his hand again, his eyes swept around, Xiaobao turned his head slightly, looked up and yawned, patted his mouth with his palm, and the pill was also thrown into his stomach without a trace at this time.
The pill entered the body, and the medicinal power was quickly exerted, Xiaobao leaned against the trunk of the tree, squinted his eyes slightly, and let the medicinal power quickly replenish the almost exhausted writing power in his body.
Because of the help of Hui Li Dan, when Xiaobao returned to his peak state again, the mercenaries around him were still whispering, waiting for the slow recovery of his physical strength.
After muttering in his heart, "Having an elixir is cool", Xiaobao stood up and said to the mercenary beside him that he wanted to go to Xiaojie, and then turned around and walked slowly towards Xiaolinzi on the side.
Walking into the small forest, the light was dim, but this was the area that the mercenaries had scouted before, so Xiaobao didn't have to worry about being suddenly attacked by the demonic beasts, his eyes swept around, carefully looking for the most suitable place for cultivation.
With Xiaobao's search, he also went deeper and deeper into the small dense forest, walked a distance again, the dim sight, suddenly brightened, raised his eyes to see, it turned out that he had passed through the small dense forest, appeared in front of him, is a somewhat steep cliff, under the cliff, covered with lush woods, it is quite beautiful.
His eyes swept over the edge of the cliff, but his eyes suddenly paused, Xiaobao touched his nose, and then stopped in front of a plant with pale white flowers blooming on the edge of the cliff.
This plant has light white flowers, faintly blooming flowers, with pink fruits, looming, a faint grass fragrance, faintly pouring out of it, very pleasant.
Eyes carefully swept over the plant, Xiaobao raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then squatted down slightly, stretching out his palm to the plant, wanting to pluck it.
Just when Xiaobao touched the plant, a small hand as white as jade suddenly stretched out from the cliff in front of him, and also grabbed the plant, but it was grabbed on Xiaobao's palm.
The jade hand just touched Xiaobao's palm, and after a slight sluggishness, it shrank back like an electric shock, but in an instant, a soft and pretty face with an ethereal aura emerged from under the cliff, and looked at the stunned young man squatting in front of him with a little panic.
……
Looking at the beautiful cheeks that suddenly emerged from under the cliff, Xiaobao was also startled at first, but when he quickly came back to his senses, he found that this woman seemed to be the fairy sister in the medicine collection team.
On the cliff, two pairs of eyes looked at each other in such a daze, and the scene was quite subtle.
"Can you give me a hand?"
After looking at each other for a moment again, the fairy sister finally took the lead in breaking the embarrassment, and asked in a soft voice.
In the blink of an eye, Xiaobao nodded casually, grabbed the little hand that was as cool as jade stretched out by the fairy sister, and used a slight force, and at the same time, the fairy sister jumped up under the cliff with a pair of small feet, and her delicate body crossed a wonderful arc in mid-air, and jumped to the top of the mountain lightly.
"Thank you."
The footsteps touched the ground, the fairy sister whispered a thank you, and quickly broke free of Xiaobao's palm, and then swept over the edge of the cliff without a trace, and the slender jade fingers swept over a few strands of green silk in front of the forehead, and the eyes swept over Xiaobao's face, and said softly: "You... You're the mercenary guard hired by Bafangzhai this time, right? ”
"Yes." Xiaobao recalled the softness in his hand before, nodded with a smile, and then continued to shift his gaze to the endless green mountains beyond the cliff, although this woman's appearance is not extremely beautiful, but that soft temperament is quite exciting.
Seeing that Xiaobao agreed casually, and didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, the fairy sister Dai frowned slightly, her dark eyes rolled, and the slender jade pointed to the white plant on the edge of the cliff, and chuckled: "I see that you seem to want to pick this herb before, do you know?" ”
Hearing this, Xiaobao touched his nose and smiled: "This should be a white orchid, right?" Intermediate herbs, generally only grow on the edge of the cliff, although the yield is a lot, but because this herb is the favorite food of flying monsters, it is generally just grown, and it will be eaten by monsters, so it can also be regarded as a rare thing in medium-grade medicinal materials, if this ripe white orchid fruit is taken back to the pharmacy, it should be worth a few thousand gold coins, right? ”
Looking at the pair of young men in front of Bai Languo who were talking eloquently, a touch of surprise flashed in the fairy sister's beautiful eyes, and she said with some surprise: "You have also learned to distinguish medicinal herbs?" ”
"I've learned a little bit of fur." Shrugging his shoulders, Xiaobao said vaguely.
After following Ge Lao for so long, Xiao Bao has also made a lot of progress in the identification of medicinal herbs in addition to learning to refine medicines, after all, with Ge Lao's knowledge, what cherished herbs he has not seen? As his only personal disciple, he naturally put everything into Xiaobao's head. (To be continued......)
