44. Treasure hunting

After leaving the Black Forest with doubts and regrets, Jiang Xiaomiao did not dare to go to the place that had been trampled into a road by the medicine customers, for fear of encountering people who should not be met and bringing unnecessary trouble. She could only walk in a place where there was a lot of vegetation, where her little body was hidden without difficulty.

Xiaoqiu felt that he couldn't help Jiang Xiaomiao find treasure for a long time, so he took the initiative to find a few spirit fruits and a few good medicinal herbs on the road to give to Jiang Xiaomiao. Jiang Xiaomiao put these into the grape ball, and casually dug up a few slightly valuable medicinal herbs on the road and threw them in his back basket. She also put away the shiny bamboo, and she was also worried about the people in the Xu family's team, if something happened to these people, she would feel very uncomfortable.

Jiang Xiaomiao's body has changed, and it was supposed to take an hour, but it took less than half an hour to get there. The Treasure Eater stopped after taking her two mountain packs and said to her, "Lord Guardian, do you see the Thorn Forest ahead?" If you can drill through it, you can go directly to the back of the hole, otherwise you will have to walk for half an hour to touch the hole. ”

Jiang Xiaomiao looked at the thorn forest in front of him, and it seemed that as long as he was a little person who paid attention, he could crawl through the rolling belt. She immediately said: "Okay, don't be imaged, I'll choose this path." I want to go home early."

When Xiaoqiu heard Jiang Xiaomiao say this, he jumped in front of him to indicate the direction. Jiang Xiaomiao covered his head with a furoshi, put on his gauntlets, and began to climb or roll through the thorn forest of about 300 meters. Fortunately, it was late autumn, and the vines had begun to wither and turn yellow, revealing some paths that could be traversed, otherwise even a child would not be able to pass through.

Seeing that a crack in the mountain appeared not far ahead, Jiang Xiaomiao knew that he was about to reach the place, so he accelerated his crawling speed. At this time, Xiaoqiu suddenly spoke: "Lord Guardian, I saw something like silver on the edge of the cliff in the distance, would I like to check it for you." Gold and silver have no aura, and I can't say for sure. ”

As soon as Jiang Xiaomiao heard the silver, the smile on her face became thick, and she said to Xiaoqiu: "If you don't pick up any silver, you will be struck by thunder and thunder, you hurry up and take a look." There are so many medicine customers on this mountain, if someone accidentally drops the silver, I won't waste it! ”

Xiaoqiu was defeated by Jiang Xiaomiao's shamelessness, but he always remembered that he was bought by Jiang Xiaomiao for twenty taels of silver, and he wanted to return the real silver to Jiang Xiaomiao, otherwise it would not have been so idle to pay attention to such a mundane thing.

Jiang Xiaomiao continued to drill into the thorn forest, and the hillock jumped away, and when it came back, it had a piece of metal in its mouth. Jiang Xiaomiao was already sitting outside the thorn forest to rest, and when she took the piece of metal from Xiaoqiu's mouth, she smiled as soon as she saw it. Is this silver? No, it's gold. The hillock is so stupid that gold can be recognized as silver.

Xiaoqiu felt funny when he saw Jiang Xiaomiao's appearance, and he said to Jiang Xiaomiao: "This is gold, I know." I also knew before gold was silver that it was supposed to be the relic of a dead man. There are two small pieces of gold on the side of a skeleton, five or six pieces of silver that are quite large, and I will pick up the gold first to make you happy. I haven't even entered the cave before I see the dead man again, little Miao girl, you have to be careful after a while, I'm afraid that there are some monsters and ghosts in the cave. ”

When Jiang Xiaomiao heard that the gold was a dead man, she suddenly felt a little nauseous, and she accidentally activated the dead air bag on her arm when she was not in a good mood. As soon as the dead air was released, the surrounding grass and thorn forests immediately withered and turned yellow, and then turned into gray-black slag. Jiang Xiaomiao was speechless, she knew that the dead qi in the zĂ i dead air bag could be used like this, why did she even crawl with a roll.

Xiaoqiu also became happy when he saw this scene, and he showed Jiang Xiaomiao the direction, Jiang Xiaomiao let off his breath all the way, and after a while, he stepped on the ashes of the grass and trees to the entrance of the cave. Finally arrived at the place, Jiang Xiaomiao recited the spell, raised her hand and sucked hard with the dead air bag, until Xiaoqiu shouted, she retracted her arm. The black fog at the entrance of the cave was completely gone, and by the daylight, Jiang Xiaomiao saw the bones in the cave.

There were at least a dozen bones in the cave, some lying and some standing, their mouths open, and the fresh bag that the hill said was on the corpse in the most conspicuous place at the entrance of the cave. According to the location of the corpse, Jiang Xiaomiao could guess that this person should be only one cloth away from escaping from Ascension.

Xiaoqiu is a spirit beast with thousands of years of experience, he didn't let Jiang Xiaomiao touch those bones, he turned around the cave a few times, and then untied the fresh bag and threw it to Jiang Xiaomiao and said: "You can't just stay here, this hole extends to the ground, there must be something wrong underground." These are mortals who have been drained of their blood, so you better leave quickly. I'll send you to the edge of the Black Forest, and you should hurry back to the Jade Pavilion, and don't come out these days. ”

Jiang Xiaomiao took the fresh bag and dropped a drop of essence blood before checking that this fresh bag was really small, but it was only half a square capacity. Maybe the original owner of this bag should have been a relatively powerful medicine guest, otherwise how could he afford such a treasure. He had been dead for at least ten years, and the herbs in the bag had dried up and completely lost their medicinal properties. Fresh bags generally can maintain the medicinal properties for three years, and the herbs become this kind of process, which means that they have been collected for at least ten years.

got the treasure left by others, Jiang Xiaomiao kowtowed to the dry bones respectfully and thanked him. Xiaoqiu watched from the sidelines, and said with his divine sense and the Emperor of the Heavens: "Senior, the guardian of Lord Fairy Cat is really strange, and no one can compare to him when he is shameless when he is greedy for money. At this time, I felt that she was still good. ”

The Emperor of the Heavens pursed his lips and said: "That's the case, this little girl is such a virtue, my old man can see through it." Her nature is very kind, and the fairy cat that we are all attached to has a chance to follow such a talent. I quietly tell you, this girl's luck is given by heaven, and if you follow us in the future, you will definitely have great luck. ”

When Xiaoqiu heard such a secret thing, he couldn't help but nod his head. It escorted Jiang Xiaomiao all the way into the Black Forest before returning to the mountain range and choosing a hidden tree cave to cultivate, at least half a year before it came out, and from then on it was at least a fifth-level Qi cultivation cultivator, and it also had the ability to protect itself in this mountain range. It can also hunt for treasures on its own, and maybe it is possible to rush all the way to the Great Perfection of Qi Training.

With the dead air bag to open the way, Jiang Xiaomiao crossed the Black Forest in half an hour, and then she chose a straight and dangerous, less crowded path back to the foot of the mountain. When she reached the foot of the mountain, it was getting dark. Jiang Xiaomiao saw her partner under a big tree and immediately stepped forward to join in the purchase and sale of medicinal herbs.
