Chapter 91: The Golden Fruit
After listening to Jian Qing's words, Zhu Chongying put away his anger and turned to carefully sense the hidden spirit array that had been laid back then. Xunxian Pavilion is also very strange, every time the ten-year period changes, it is the danger of each place, but it turns out that things in this place will not move for no reason, and those who can move will only be those demon beasts.
That's why he and Jian Qing were able to find this place, and he was so sure that the golden fruit was in this forest.
The last time he was in the ten-year period, he was still a nobody, and he came here to seek immortal pavilions just to try his luck and pick up some good things and cultivate here for three months. But he stumbled upon the golden fruit tree in the woods, which was not yet ripe, and he was overjoyed, and tried to make a note of the location before anyone was going out at last.
He thought that by the time of the next ten years, the golden fruit should be ripe. However, he came to find the woods this time, but where did the golden fruit tree go?
"Huh? That's ......" Suddenly, Zhu Chongying sensed a very faint aura fluctuation, if it weren't for the fact that the aura was the same qi as his cultivation, he might not have been able to sense it.
Gesturing to Jian Qing and motioning for her to follow, Zhu Chongying cautiously went to the place he sensed. Not long after, Zhu Chongying looked down at the big hole in front of him, was it in here? He turned his head to look at Jian Qing and raised his eyebrows at her helplessly, he didn't know why this golden fruit tree had run into this hunter's trap.
Jian Qing stared at the entrance of the cave thoughtfully, there are clouds in ancient books, and some heavenly and earthly treasures can produce spirits when they reach a certain level. Although most of them are as intelligent as children. Could it be that the golden fruit tree that Zhu Chongying encountered had already produced a spirit? That's why you moved your own position?
Zhu Chongying touched his head in annoyance, is this still a good man? No matter, let's get it first. Just in case, he looked at Jian Qing, nodded at her and jumped down. Seeing him jump down like this, Jian Qing raised his eyebrows, looked around, and jumped down as well.
I just entered the cave and found that it was not a hunter's cave. Before, they thought it was a monk who had brought it to hunt low-level demon beasts. Unexpectedly, when they entered it, they found that the hole was bottomless, and the two of them each took a flashlight and walked forward carefully.
Jian Qing listened to her and Zhu Chongying's footsteps. Walking forward slowly, the inside of the cave was not wet, but dry and ventilated. The further she went, the more she felt her aura slowly become stronger. And there seems to be a fragrance in the air. Jian Qing sniffed. I feel refreshed physically and mentally, and in an instant, where does the fragrance come from in the cave.
She hurriedly held her breath, called Zhu Chongying, and told him about the situation, but after Zhu Chongying heard it, he took a heavy breath in the air. Jian Qing saw his intoxicated look, and really wanted to slap him to death. But the next moment, when I saw Zhu Chongying, I was surprised and said, "This is it, the golden fruit is here." The same aroma I smelled when I first saw it. Zhu Chongying's eyes widened, and he looked at Jian Qing with joy and said.
A hint of surprise flashed in Jian Qing's eyes, "Really? Zhu Chongying nodded heavily. smiled at Jian Qing and said, "Let's go." ”
Zhu Chongying walked forward first, and Jian Qing followed him closely. Following the scent, they turned around for an hour before they reached the foot of a stone wall.
Jian Qing and Zhu Chongying looked up at the towering steep stone wall in front of them in a daze, they were originally in that cave, who knew that after walking along the aroma of the golden fruit for so long, they had already left that cave. And as soon as you come out of the hole, you will find this huge steep stone wall in front of you, and the most conspicuous thing on the stone wall is a small shining tree.
Zhu Chongying swallowed his saliva, that is the golden fruit tree, and the golden fruit is the legendary golden fruit.
Jian Qing also noticed the fruit tree, if it was a tree, it was actually only about a meter high, standing high on the stone wall. There were four golden round fruits growing on the tree, shimmering charmingly and swaying slightly in the breeze. When Jian Qing saw the appearance of the golden fruit, he was overjoyed, it was time to ripen, and it seemed that it should be ripe in the next few days.
The sign of the ripeness of the golden fruit is that the body of the fruit is golden in color, and all the leaves of the fruit tree have fallen, and the fruit must be picked within 24 hours of all the leaves falling, otherwise the fruit will automatically fall and melt into the ground.
Jian Qing and Zhu Chongying looked at each other and smiled, they came at the right time.
Jian Qing turned around and looked around, they had just come out of the hole, and there was this stone wall opposite, and there was a small valley between the two. There are also some natural treasures here, which are also very good spirit grasses, anyway, the golden fruit will not mature in a few days, they will pick these spirit grasses first, just wait here.
However, generally there will be demon beasts guarding treasures like Golden Fruit, and they have to deal with this demon beast first. It's just that she didn't know what kind of demon beast was guarding the golden fruit, she looked at Zhu Chongying inquiringly, but unfortunately he didn't know at all.
Suddenly, Jian Qing was stunned, and she realized that something was wrong. They have been here for so long, but there is still no movement, and the demon beast that guards the golden fruit has not appeared, and this small valley is also terrifyingly quiet. Ordinary demon beasts, especially high-level demon beasts, have a very strong sense of exclusivity for their own territory, and there is no reason why strangers will be indifferent when their own territory suddenly comes in.
She looked around vigilantly, and Zhu Chongying also woke up from a moment of joy, and he cautiously walked next to Jian Qing and looked around.
"Sister Jian Qing, have you found anything?"
"It's so weird here, was it here the last time you saw the Golden Fruit?" Jian Qing shook his head and looked at Zhu Chongying suspiciously.
"No, I saw it on a flat ground, definitely not on a cliff." Zhu Chongying said with great certainty. Just now, he was just happy to find the golden fruit, but now that he thinks about it, the golden fruit he saw back then was not in this ghost place. He suddenly felt a chill behind him, and a chill rose in his heart, something was wrong here.
"Strange, isn't this the golden fruit tree you saw back then?" Jian Qing looked up at the golden fruit tree again in confusion.
"It's the one back then, and the Hidden Spirit Array I planted back then is still there." Zhu Chongying also looked up at the golden fruit.
"Oh no, someone's coming." Just as they looked up, they suddenly noticed movement on the stone wall, and they quickly gathered their breath and hid it.
Zhu Chongying's face was very ugly, I didn't expect that there would be anyone who knew about the Golden Fruit, it seems that there is a tough battle to fight this time. He turned his head to look at Jian Qing, who was staring at the golden fruit tree next to him, and hurriedly gathered his mind and focused on listening to the movement on the top of the stone wall.
Just as Jian Qing was carefully hiding to avoid the comers, Jian Ning was dealing with Qin Mo and them against a group of difficult macaques. I heard from Senior Brother that they had also encountered a group of macaques before, and there was also an eighth-order monkey king, but it was not this batch.
After Jian Ning knocked down a late-stage seventh-order macaque in front of him, he looked at his companions who were fighting in the group of monkeys, and even Simple was fighting some early-stage sixth-order macaques on the periphery. Seeing that it was easy to deal with the simple situation, Jian Ning breathed a sigh of relief and let him deal with it, while he turned around and continued his monkey killing career.
If they want to say that they will encounter this group of difficult monkeys, it is because they saw a very good plantain in the woods and wanted to pick and eat it. Who knew that this plantain was the food of the macaques living in this wood, and it was not so easy to walk away after robbing them of their food.
So, before they could stuff the plantain into their mouths, a large number of macaques suddenly appeared, both high-level and low-level. And there was also an eighth-order macaque, Jian Ning really wanted to suspect that this group of macaques was the batch that the senior brother had encountered. People are reluctant to him, thousands of miles to find the king, this is not the eighth-order demon beast who is looking for the senior brother without anyone looking for it, one person and one beast have already beaten and don't know where to go.
Although one of the most powerful ones went, and they still had Qin Mo's big Buddha here, there were too many of these macaques, at least more than a hundred. And it's good, most of them are demon beasts above the seventh order, and just dealing with these is enough for them to be busy.
Although everyone was not injured, and they could also give simple Qin Fei and them experience, but if the wheel battle went on like this, not to mention that they were a little unbearable, and they consumed too much spiritual power. Those macaques are really a little clever, and if they come up in batches, they can also save some spiritual power consumption.
Jian Ning moved to Qin Mo's side and shouted at him. "No, we're going to get rid of these monkeys."
Qin Mo obviously thought the same way, with a wave of his hand, a macaque fell to the ground, and when Jian Ning saw this, the corners of her mouth twitched, she waved half a hand, and the others overwhelmed one with a wave of their hand. People are more popular than dead people, and they don't bring people here to stimulate people.
"Call them together, I'll hold them back, you go first." Qin Mo said in a deep voice without looking back.
"Okay, let's leave a mark along the road." Jian Ning didn't say much, she knew that Qin Mo didn't want to sacrifice herself to buy them time, but believed that Qin Mo really had the ability to lure away this group of monkeys.
After saying that, Jian Ning moved towards Qin Yu and told him about the plan, but Qin Yu didn't say much and nodded to indicate that he knew. It didn't take long for them all to gather together, and Qin Mo nodded at Jian Ning after seeing it.
Seeing this, Jian Ning took a deep look at him, turned around and ran back quickly with everyone, and the group of macaques saw Jian Ning and they ran away and wanted to catch up. But how could Qin Mo give them a chance, luck and spiritual power waved to stop them.
Jian Ning and the others ran for an hour before stopping, they found a place to sit down and rest, and waited for Qin Mo and Senior Brother by the way. They had already left marks along the way, believing that with the speed of Qin Mo and Senior Brother, it wouldn't be long before they could find it.
Jian Ning looked at the time, it was already evening, and decided to simply rest here tonight. Soon they had tidied up the grounds, set up a fire, and prepared for the evening's meals. (To be continued......)
