Looking at the girl serving tea in front of him, Wang Teng thanked him.

The other party looks about the same age as him, maybe even smaller, dressed simply and plainly, not as glamorous as an urban girl, with a thin body and a small face, but he did not show timidity when facing him, and his face was quite calm.

Her home is the kind of self-built house, and in fact, when I walked over just now, I saw that other houses in the village were like this.

Wang Teng looked at the situation in the house without a trace, a little shabby, and he knew her family background well in his heart.

He took a sip of water, scrubbed the cup in his hand and asked, "See you're about the same age as me, didn't go to school?"

"My family is in a special situation and I dropped out of school. ”

Bai Xiaocao sat down opposite Wang Teng, shook his head, didn't want to say more, and asked instead, "Aunt Li said you want to enter the mountain?"

"Yes. Wang Teng nodded, and then asked, "I heard that your father also went into the mountain with other people?"

"Yes, three young men. Bai Xiaocao said.

"Are they here to find this?" Wang Teng took out his mobile phone and showed her the picture of the Phantom Flame Grass.

"Phantom Flame Grass, you're also here for this?" Bai Xiaocao said in surprise.

"You know. Wang Teng was surprised, nodded and said: "Yes, I am here for this, it seems that those people have the same goal as me, do you know where to find it?"

"Yes, yes, my dad told me, but I haven't been. Bai Xiaocao said.

Wang Teng frowned and muttered, "Then do you have a map on the mountain?"

"No, we went into the mountains based on experience. Bai Xiaocao shook his head and said.

Wang Teng suddenly had a headache, if he was allowed to go into the mountain by himself and search aimlessly, the danger would not be great, but it would definitely waste a lot of time.

At this time, Bai Xiaocao said, "Although I haven't been there, I know the way, and I can take you there." ”

"Oh!" Wang Teng couldn't help but glance at the girl, he didn't expect that she would offer to take him into the mountain, Wang Teng had no reason to refuse, but he knew that this girl was by no means simply kind, so he asked quietly: "What do you want?"

"I need money, and I'm going to go to my dad, they went into the mountains for a day and a night and didn't come back, with my dad's experience, they couldn't have gone for so long, they must have had some accident. Bai Xiaocao bit her lip and said.

Fair and reasonable.

Wang Teng bowed his head and said, "Yes, you make a price." ”

"Three...... Five thousand!" Bai Xiaocao gritted his teeth, the three thousand that he was originally going to export became five thousand, and then he looked at Wang Teng with some apprehension.

If she hadn't opened her mouth like this before, but now the mountains are getting more and more dangerous, and entering the mountains is no joke, and she has to take a certain risk.

Moreover, the place where the Phantom Flame Grass is located is relatively deep, if it weren't for the fact that their family was really in urgent need of money, his father would not have agreed to those people before to go into the mountains to help them find the Phantom Flame Grass.

Wang Teng thought that Bai Xiaocao would offer a high price, but he didn't expect it to be only five thousand, so he was slightly stunned.

Bai Xiaocao thought that he thought it was too expensive, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he hesitated: "Otherwise, three thousand is fine." ”

"It's five thousand, and if you bring me to the place before noon, I can give me a little more. Wang Teng waved his hand and said indifferently.

Bai Xiaocao showed a trace of astonishment on his face, and then said in surprise: "No problem, I know a shortcut, I will definitely be able to get there before noon." ”

"Okay, let's go now?" Wang Teng said.

"Wait for me, I'll change my clothes and get some tools. Bai Xiaocao immediately got up and ran into the back room.

......

After a while, Wang Teng heard a faint sound of conversation coming from the inner room, and one of the voices was a little weak, if it weren't for the strong hearing of the martial artists, he really couldn't hear what they were saying.

"Mom, I have something to do when I go out with my friends, and I will ask Aunt Li to bring you something to eat at noon. ”

"Don't worry, you can do your business, don't worry about me, don't trouble Aunt Li, I can make something simple to eat. ”

"That'...... Okay, I should be back in the evening. ”

Bai Xiaocao was very fast, and in a few minutes he changed into a smart outfit, held a firewood knife in his hand, and walked out of the house with a basket on his back.

"Let's go. ”

Wang Teng glanced at her, got up and followed her out of the door, and walked out of the village.

In the ridges outside the village, the previous middle-aged woman was busy working, and Bai Xiaocao shouted at her from afar: "Auntie, I want to take him into the mountain, my mother is alone at home, please help take care of it." ”

"Oh, good. The middle-aged woman raised her head and shouted, "You should pay attention to safety when you enter the mountain." ”

"Okay. Bai Xiaocao replied.

......

Walking through the road, Bai Xiaocao took Wang Teng and turned into a trail next to him, and after walking for a long time, the two went up the mountain.

Chunhua Mountain still retains a relatively good wild form, and after the baptism of the Force, it has returned to the primitive, and there are more wild animals in it.

The surrounding trees are tall and lush, and there are many dead branches and fallen leaves piled up on the ground, and there are not many traces of man-made.

It seems that the nearby villagers do not enter the mountain very often.

However, Wang Teng has seen the primeval forest of the other world, and this Chunhua Mountain is too much worse than it, and there is nothing to make a fuss about.

"Be careful, there are poisonous snakes and poisonous insects in the mountains. Bai Xiaocao walked ahead, chopping the bushes and thorns on both sides with a firewood knife in his hand, and soon cleared a path for people to pass.

"Just pay attention to yourself. Wang Teng said indifferently.

Bai Xiaocao frowned, sighed in her heart, but didn't say anything more, just distracted from Wang Teng's side.

The two walked for more than an hour, during which they did not encounter any accidents, and Bai Xiaocao skillfully avoided some places that might be dangerous.

At this time, Bai Xiaocao stopped and rested, took a sip of water, pointed to the left and said: "Wait a minute, let's go from here, my dad took me through before, although it was a little difficult to walk, but the distance was a lot shorter, we can definitely arrive before noon." ”

"Hmm. Wang Teng nodded, sat down on the stone next to him, and said, "Let's rest first." ”

Bai Xiaocao sat down on another stone, took out something that looked like jerky, and asked, "Do you want it?"

"I'm not hungry, you can eat. Wang Teng shook his head and said.

Bai Xiaocao didn't force it, and ate it by herself, and at the same time looked at Wang Teng with some curiosity.

She was suddenly shocked in her heart, and found that Wang Teng didn't look tired at all along the way, neither sweating nor panting, just like walking.

"Could this guy be a martial arts practitioner?" Bai Xiaocao secretly guessed.

"Then again, they all came to look for the Phantom Flame Grass, and that Phantom Flame Grass must be very valuable, if only they could pick two plants. Bai Xiaocao thought hopefully.

After a ten-minute break, the two continued on their way.

"My dad doesn't seem to be going this way. Bai Xiaocao said as he cleared the road.

"I felt a little strange when I went up the mountain just now, and I didn't see any other traces of man-made along the way. Wang Teng said.

"They must have gone the other way. Bai Xiaocao was a little puzzled and said, "I haven't entered the mountain with my dad for a long time, could it be that he has found another route." ”

A white light suddenly flashed in Wang Teng's mind, and Bai Xiaocao also turned his head at this time, and both of them saw the same idea from each other's expressions.

"Unless the road is dangerous!!"

"Be careful, your dad can't give up this familiar path for no reason. Wang Teng reminded.

Bai Xiaocao nodded, and immediately raised her vigilance and became more cautious.

They walked for more than half an hour, but they never encountered the imaginary danger, and Bai Xiaocao quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Click!

Suddenly, it was as if she had stepped on something.

Bai Xiaocao's whole person slammed suddenly, didn't dare to act rashly, and slowly looked down.

I saw that she was stepping on an anthill like a haystack under her feet, almost blending with the dead branches and leaves on the ground, which was extremely inconspicuous, so she relaxed for a while, didn't notice, and stepped on it.

Of course, Wang Teng also saw this scene, and saw that she was still stunned, so he hurriedly pulled her back.

Buzz Buzz......

The next moment, a dense buzzing sound sounded, and a group of black flying ants instantly flew out of the anthill, rushing towards Wang Teng and the others.

Not only that, but there are also a bunch of black reptile ants on the ground, much larger than ordinary ants, and if you look closely, you will find that their heads are particularly large, and their mouthparts are hideous.

"It's over, it's a strange beast!"

Bai Xiaocao's face turned pale, she was cautious all the way, thinking of many possible dangers, but she didn't expect it to be a nest of ant beasts.

Ant beasts don't have much attack power individually, but they are all in groups, and there are hundreds of thousands or millions of terrifying numbers in a litter, and there is basically no way to survive.

At this time, a group in the sky and a group on the ground, a black oppressive piece rushed towards the two of them, making people's scalps numb.

"I'm sorry, I hurt you. Bai Xiaocao said guiltily.

"It's not dead yet, what an apology, it's just a nest of ants. Wang Teng said flatly.

Seeing that she was frightened like this, the fire force in her body gushed out, and a scorching breath greeted the ants in the sky and on the ground.

Rumble!

The black-pressed ants immediately turned into two seas of fire, and they were burned clean in an instant, leaving only a pile of ashes.

Under Wang Teng's control, the fire did not spread to the surrounding trees, and was extinguished in a blink of an eye.

Bai Xiaocao stared at him with wide glasses.

"Wu ...... Warrior!"

She thought that Wang Teng was a martial artist at most, but she never thought that he would be a martial artist!

Such a young warrior!

Bai Xiaocao felt that she had really gained knowledge.

"Gone!"

Wang Teng's voice pulled her back to reality from shock, and she subconsciously walked forward, but she was still absent-minded.

"Come back to your senses, don't step on anything that shouldn't be stepped on, in case it's a poisonous snake or something, bite you directly, I can't save you. Wang Teng said.

Bai Xiaocao suddenly came back to his senses, cheered up his spirit, and no longer dared to take it lightly.

Finally, at almost twelve o'clock, the two arrived at a cliff.

"This is it. Bai Xiaocao stopped, observed the surrounding environment, and said, "My dad has seen it here before, you can look for it." ”

Wang Teng's eyes swept around, but he didn't see any trace of the Phantom Flame Grass, so he couldn't help frowning, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked down.

"It turned out to be here. ”

He smiled and jumped down.

The cliff face is covered with all kinds of plants and vines, and more than a dozen of the plants growing in the grass are none other than Phantom Flame Grass.

At the same time that Wang Teng jumped down, he reached out and grabbed a vine, picked the three closest Phantom Flame Grasses, and then gently swung to the place where several other Phantom Flame Grasses grew, and was about to pick them, when suddenly a green shadow flew out of the grass and attacked Wang Teng.

"Be careful!" exclaimed Bai Xiaocao above.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

The corners of Wang Teng's mouth hooked, his palm waved, and the fire force gushed out, and the green shadow burned all over the body, and fell off the cliff with a hiss.

This is a small green snake, because the color is similar to the surrounding vegetation, it is difficult to find it in the grass.

"It's just a strange beast, but it's not too threatening. ”

Wang Teng thought to himself.

Suddenly, a few small green snakes rushed out, and they opened their mouths in mid-air and bit Wang Teng.

Wang Teng easily solved it, and then picked more than a dozen Phantom Flame Grasses.

As for the so-called psychedelic effect, in terms of his mental power, it is like a mosquito bite, and it cannot confuse him at all.

Wang Teng's left foot kicked on the protrusion of the stone wall, and then returned to the cliff, landing lightly beside Bai Xiaocao.

"That's it, let's go back. Wang Teng put away the Phantom Flame Grass and turned his head to Bai Xiaocao.

"That's the end of it. Bai Xiaocao hasn't come to his senses yet.

That's too fast, isn't it?

She thought she was going through a bitter battle, but Wang Teng killed several snake beasts that were very dangerous to them in two clicks.

"This guy seems to be really strong!" Bai Xiaocao was surprised in his heart, and thought with some envy: "If only I were as strong as him, I would make a lot of money in minutes." ”

"Or what do you think? Wang Teng smiled and returned the same way.

But he stopped suddenly.

"Why don't you leave again?" Bai Xiaocao said in surprise.

"Someone's coming!" Wang Teng said.

"Someone is coming, is it my dad and them? Bai Xiaocao's heart moved, and he was surprised.

Soon several figures came from the other direction, and one of the middle-aged men saw Bai Xiaocao, obviously stunned for a moment, and exclaimed, "Xiaocao?"

"Dad, it's me, it's good that you're okay, it made me and my mother worry all night. Bai Xiaocao said happily.

"You girl, didn't I not let you into the mountains? The middle-aged man reproached.

"Hehe, someone paid me to lead the way, and I accompanied him. Bai Xiaocao laughed, pointed at Wang Teng and said, "But don't worry, he's very strong, don't you see that I'm not at all." ”

"You show the way!" The middle-aged man's face changed slightly: "What is he here for?"

"It's also the Phantom Flame Grass, we just finished picking it, and you're too late. Bai Xiaocao said proudly.

After all, she was ahead of her father this time, although it was all Wang Teng's credit.

However, when the middle-aged man heard this, his face was a little unsightly, and he cautiously turned his head to look at the three people who came with him, and quickly apologized: "Everyone, I'm really sorry, the little girl is not sensible......"

"Hmph!" The three of them snorted coldly, they didn't even hear him finish speaking, their brows furrowed, and they looked at Wang Teng and said, "You picked the Phantom Flame Grass?"
