Chapter 36: The Bee Beast's Nest
Although Lu Hongwei was at a loss, fortunately, her brother Zheng was not a straw bag, and he knew that the fire aura in the desert was so strong that it was not suitable to fight a protracted battle with bees and beasts.
Immediately took out a free hand, sacrificed a paper crane, blew lightly, the paper crane suddenly became huge, pulled up Lu Hong's skirt and flew towards Yuan Shan's location, Yuan Shan immediately understood what Hua Zheng meant, jumped on the paper crane, and the three of them quickly flew away from the desert.
After flying away from the desert, Hua Zheng lowered the altitude of the fly, and it was not suitable to fly at high altitude. ”
Therefore, after leaving the desert, Hua Zheng took the paper crane and landed from a mountain, and the three of them immediately found a cave where no one was.
When he arrived at the cave, Hua Zheng put away the paper crane, and Yuan Shan took a serious look at the male cultivator in front of him, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a clear face and a warm smile.
Hua Zheng glanced at Lu Hong's skirt, and then respectfully saluted Yuan Shan, presumably the two of them continued to transmit sound along the way, and Hua Zheng also knew some things about Yuan Shan, because at first Yuan Shan noticed that Hua Zheng was a little defensive when she looked at her.
After all, she has been taking care of Lu Hongskirt for no reason and for no reason, it is very unusual in this world of immortal cultivation that is full of betrayal and murder, although Hua Zheng seems to be easy to speak, she is not an ignorant girl like Lu Hongskirt. As for what Lu Hongskirt said to him, he had changed his opinion of Yuan Shan, and Yuan Shan didn't know.
"Thank you Daoyou for taking care of your sister along the way, and I am grateful to Xia Huazheng." Hearing Hua Zheng say this, Lu Hongskirt pursed her red lips with some dissatisfaction, but she didn't say anything, Yuan Shan secretly laughed in her heart.
But he didn't show it on his face, and hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Daoyou don't have to be polite, Daoyou and I are both female cultivators, so we should take care of each other." ”
Although Yuan Shan's reason is far-fetched, it can't be said bluntly that I can't bear to see your sister being hit by that, so I had to make a move, right? After a few words of secret slander in her heart, Yuan Shan found that since she had gone through the Heart Demon Tribulation and officially entered the immortal cultivation realm, she had the potential to be black-bellied.
Hua Zheng is also a smart person, the girl in front of her has a cold face, but judging from what the red skirt said to herself along the way, she is a rare cold and hot-hearted person, if she and the red skirt grasp this point and thank others unrelentingly, it will be hypocritical, so she will no longer say these kind words to Yuan Shan.
Instead, he solemnly said that if there is anything to help in the future, don't be polite, and go to the Lu family in Suiyuan City to find them at any time. Yuan Shan, who was extremely unfamiliar with the immortal cultivation world, naturally didn't know where Suiyuan City was, and she didn't think about really going to them, so she didn't ask.
Hua Zheng and Lu Hongskirt didn't even think that the girl in front of them who was not good at mental means was a rookie who had just entered the world of cultivating immortals, although Suiyuan City was not a big city, but it was the border between Zhou and Jiang, and the immortal cultivators of the two countries had a lot of trade, so it was also prosperous.
"Hua Daoyou can gain something in the Fire Crystal Desert this time?" When Hua Zheng met Yuan Shan and the others, Yuan Shan noticed that he was driven out of the desert by the bee beast all the way, and he must not be empty-handed, otherwise the bee beast would not have chased him relentlessly.
It would be hypocritical to say that he didn't want fire crystals, and to say that none of the monks who entered the sea of cloud cliffs went for the fire crystals and the elixir in the sea of cloud cliffs? But Yuan Shan was really curious about the famous Cloud Cliff Fire Crystal, so he also put aside his usual indifference and took the initiative to ask.
When Hua Zheng heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, but seeing that Yuan Shan's eyes were pure, and the two of them joined forces, the girl in front of him was far from being an opponent, so he felt that he was the heart of a villain.
What a rich fire spiritual power! As long as you add a little bit when refining the weapon, you can make the ordinary magic weapon have some unique properties of the spirit weapon, which is really a good treasure.
"I'm ashamed...... "I have already put the fire crystal back into his storage bag.
Hua Zheng briefly said his experience of entering the sea of cloud cliffs, it turned out that this guy didn't know whether he was unlucky or lucky, he was passed to the nest of the crystal-eating bee as soon as he teleported in, and Hua Zheng was naturally overjoyed to see so many fire crystals, but he was depressed, because of greed, he wanted to pick up more fire crystals, and it would be easier for him and Lu Hongskirt to enter their favorite sect when the time came.
So he stayed for a while, and then he was caught by a group of worker bees, but fortunately the queen bee did not go out, otherwise it would be over, Hua Zheng was chased by a group of crystal-eating bees, scurrying around like a headless fly, and as a result, he entered the fire crystal desert, and along the way, in order to attract the attention of crystal-eating bees and avoid being targeted by more crystal-eating bees, the fire crystal on his body had been thrown by him and only this piece was left.
Later, the crystal-eating bee slowly retreated, but there was no hiding place in the desert and was soon discovered by other bee colonies, perhaps the bee colony smelled the smell of fire crystals on his body, so he was chased for most of the day, until he met Yuan Shan and Lu Hongskirt.
"So Hua Daoyou knows about the nest of the crystal-eating bee?" Yuan Shan's eyes lit up when she heard this, she was playing this idea, and she had to say that it was too opportune for this Hua Zheng to appear.
was amazed by the elegance under Yuan Shan's eyes, and when Hua Zheng came back to his senses, he realized that although the girl in front of him had exquisite facial features, her complexion was yellow, and she was actually an ordinary female cultivator who could no longer be ordinary. However, he still nodded and said, "Although I was chased by the bee beast, I can still find it in a hurry." ”
"Great! Hua Daoyou! So how about going to the bee nest another day? "In fact, Ruan Yuanshan herself didn't know, in her previous life, she had a weak temperament, and she was killed in vain, but now after her transformation, she is not only black-bellied, but also a robber.
Thinking of the large number of fire crystals in the bee beast's nest, Yuan Shan's face was slightly excited, and feeling Lu Hong's strange gaze, Yuan Shan coughed lightly and gathered her mind. In any case, she was determined to obtain that fire crystal, not to mention the necessity of entry, even such a strange refining material was worth her collection.
Hua Zheng's face changed slightly, he escaped all the way from the nest, although he didn't suffer any big losses, but he couldn't help but change color when he thought of the fiery red crystal-eating bees all over the sky, but he also knew that with a fire crystal, even if he could get in, Yuan Shan and Lu Hongskirt couldn't.
So after a little hesitation, he agreed, after all, Yuan Shan is a great favor to Lu Hongskirt, and now people just put forward a small request to lead the way, and they refuse, what else to talk about, "If you need help, don't be polite"?
The three of them rested in the cave for the night and set off the next day.
"Hua Daoyou, is it really here?" Yuan Shan's face was a little strange, because there was an ordinary small slope in front of him, which looked a little barren, and not even a single grass grew. Not far away is a grove of low trees, less than three miles to the east is the desert, there is no shadow of a cave at all, how could the crystal-eating bee build its nest here?
Hua Zheng smiled slightly, "Daoist friends believe that I am." At this time, I saw him take out three talismans from the storage bag and hand them to Yuan Shan and Lu Hongskirt, Yuan Shan looked at it, but it was the earth escape talisman, could it be that the crystal-eating bee built the nest underground?
Sure enough, seeing that Yuan Shan seemed to have an understanding, Hua Zheng turned his head, smiled slightly, slapped the earth escape charm on his body, and suddenly disappeared in place, at this time, a head suddenly appeared in front of the soil slope, "Skirt, Ruan Daoyou, follow quickly." ”
Lu Hongskirt naturally obeyed Hua Zheng's words, and immediately slapped the earth escape charm on her body and followed, Yuan Shan did not hesitate immediately, and did not make mistakes.
After walking about three or four miles, I felt something unusual. "Boom" twice, and the figures of the three appeared in a huge cave underground. Yuan Shan was already stunned by the scene in front of her, and saw a huge underground palace standing in front of her, was it really the nest of crystal-eating bees?
The huge plaque is empty, there is not a word, the walls on both sides are inlaid with all kinds of ores, which seems a little disorganized, but in a trance, it looks like some strange character, but Yuan Shan is only slightly distracted and doesn't pay too much attention to it, but at a glance, these ores Yuan Shan doesn't know, but Yuan Shan doesn't know it, but Yuan Shan doesn't know it doesn't mean that Hua Zheng and Lu Hongskirt don't know each other.
"Brother Zheng, do you think it's a golden essence stone?" Following the girl's hand, Hua Zheng's eyes really lit up, "Sure enough, it is a golden essence stone, but it is not very pure, if it is a pure golden essence stone, then a small piece can be exchanged for a thousand lower-grade spirit stones." ”
Lu Hongwei's eyes couldn't help but light up when she heard the previous sentence, and she was a little disappointed when she heard the latter sentence. Hua Zheng's face was obviously disappointed, he didn't pay so much attention when he escaped from the crystal-eating bee's nest, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he thought about it, presumably there were still a lot of good things in the crystal-eating bee's nest.
It seems that this time it is the right time, let it go out.
Yuan Shan had a conjecture in her heart, could it be that this palace was not built by crystal-eating bees, could it be that this palace was built by someone, and then it was abandoned for some reason or what, and then it was occupied by the queen bee with a group of crystal-eating bees?
As she went deeper and deeper into the palace, Yuan Shan became more and more sure of this idea in her heart.
"Buzz." A buzzing sound sounded in their ears, and the three of them looked at each other a few times, and they had already thought of a countermeasure. The crystal-eating bee is extremely sensitive to the smell of fire crystals, and it is almost invincible in the fire crystal desert, nothing more than with the help of a physique that can automatically recover, and the earth aura here is strong, and the fire aura is general, obviously in the cave, except for the place where the fire crystals are piled up, the bee beasts are still relatively easy to deal with.
Sure enough, just when the three of them were ready, several crystal-eating bees flew out of one of the holes, their fiery red bodies were particularly conspicuous, but when they saw a few flashes of silver light, they saw that the crystal-eating bees were all nailed to the wall with a small needle, and they died almost without any struggle.
"Ruan Daoyou's magic weapon is like a pocket bow and crossbow in the world, but it is appropriate to use it here." A hint of thoughtfulness flashed in Hua Zheng's eyes, but he praised it.
Yuan Shan nodded slightly, this is naturally the magic weapon that Yuan Shan selected in the Thousand Faces last night, it is a small box-shaped magic weapon, injected with spiritual power, and can shoot out a steel needle about a foot long, Hua Zheng said it is right, this magic weapon is called Bihua crossbow, it is a high-grade middle-level magic weapon, which is refined by immortal cultivators to simulate the bow and crossbow of the secular world. However, the steel needles are all transformed by spiritual power, and Yuan Shan's current cultivation can only be used for life-saving sneak attacks, and if you want to fight a protracted war, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it.
Fortunately, Bihua's crossbow control is extremely simple, otherwise Yuan Shan would not be able to do it overnight. With a body the size of a bee beast's fist, this Bihua crossbow is indeed an excellent attack weapon. Almost lightning speed, he took down these bee beasts. The corridor of the palace narrowed as you walked to the back, and at last there were three holes of the same size.
This made the three of them suddenly a little embarrassed. Lu Hongwei naturally wanted to go with Hua Zheng, the two chose a hole, but when they turned around, they saw Yuan Shan with a pensive face, Hua Zheng was silent for a moment and said: "This is the bee beast's nest, if it is discovered by the bee beast, I'm afraid Ruan Daoyou can't deal with it alone, so let's go with us." ”
When Lu Hongwei heard this, she also said, "Come with us." ”
Originally, Yuan Shan wanted to enter another cave, but since the two of them were kindly invited, she couldn't refuse, so she agreed, but as soon as she walked into that cave, she felt that the scene in front of her suddenly changed dramatically......
