Chapter 11: Topaz Washing the Pulp

After a night, Luo Changning opened his eyes and found that the internal force in his body had increased a lot, much faster than his usual cultivation speed, which made him very happy.

When he went to the hall for breakfast, he didn't see Su Meng, Luo Changning asked Qinggu, "Where is my aunt?" ”

"The young lady is sleeping in the house and has not yet risen."

Luo Changning nodded, wrapped more than a dozen meat buns in oiled paper and put them in his arms, picked up the knifeless on the table and went out to Mo Cheng Mountain.

Along the way, the shouts of small traders are continuous, and they are full of market atmosphere.

The economy of Annam Province as a whole is relatively backward, mostly hilly areas and islands, with many bandits and pirates, and agriculture is not developed.

Without the support of second-rate sects and families, many cultivation resources that were sold as bargains in other regions did not even have a place to buy.

Sigh, although there are many mountains here, there are not many precious medicinal materials, even if there are, they are in the deep mountains, Qingyang County does not dare to go if the force value is low, and those with slightly better martial arts do not bother to go, and would rather go to Heishui County to spend a lot of money to buy.

Heishui County is no more than Qingyang County, and there is a Mozhi Mountain Range that runs east and west to block the way, as long as you cross the Heishui River, you can go to the border of the wild jungle and trade poisons and herbs with the primitive tribes there.

Well, Heishui County, Luo Changning decided that he must go shopping if he has the opportunity to see if he can find some treasures.

On Mo Cheng Mountain, Luo Changning first went to Su Qinqin's tomb to kneel quietly for half an hour, and then walked to the deep mountain.

Passing through a cedar forest, a cliff appeared in front of him, Luo Changning was like a monkey, but he had to climb to the top of the cliff after a few ups and downs. Suddenly, his gaze fixed on the cliff face in the upper left, where a chestnut-yellow marrow washing grass grew.

There are five kinds of marrow washing grass, from high to low are green, white, ink, yellow and red, according to the color of the plant, the higher the condition, the better the marrow washing effect. Because its leaves are delicate and the tentacles are warm, like beautiful jade, it is named after jade. For example, now this chestnut yellow plant is also called topaz marrow washing grass.

Luo Changning was secretly happy in his heart, sure enough, opportunities and dangers coexist, if the topaz marrow washing grass is refined into a pill, there is a seventy percent chance of refining it into a medium-grade pill!

Moved to the upper left, Luo Changning poured internal force into his feet, fixed his body, and carefully picked up the soil and stones with his free hands, and soon the herbs were exposed, and he used his skill to pull out the marrow washing grass and put it in his arms.

On the top of the cliff, Luo Changning walked deeper for half a cup of tea, and suddenly his eyes widened, and a small river separated the two sides of the woods. Since the master left, no one brought him wine up the mountain, and he drank a few large sips of the river water, which was cool and sweet.

took out the oil paper in his arms and gnawed seven meat buns in a row, he was a little suspicious of life. Looking at the river, I thought: this water is so clear, the fish in it must be delicious, why do I always chew this cold bun, why should I catch a few fish and grill them.

As soon as he thought of it, Luo Changning put the bun on the clean stone on the bank, took off his coat, rolled up his trouser legs and went down to the river.

He has excellent water skills, and he has a lot of work under his hands, and he soon caught a grass carp weighing three or four catties.

After clearing a place, he took out the dagger he carried with him to remove the scales, cheeks, bloodletting, and gallbladder of the fish. After washing, he found some dry grass and lit it with a fire breaker, and soon the fire was lit.

The fish is threaded up with sharpened branches and roasted over the fire, and soon the fish is full of aroma and blends with the herbaceous aroma to whet your appetite.

Luo Changning licked the corners of his mouth, threw the salt-skinned wood fruit and peppercorns that he had picked by the way when he picked up the branches into the belly of the fish, and roasted them for a while, and when the fragrance of the seasoning came out, the fish was also grilled just enough.

When you bite into it, the skin is elastic and charred, and the meat is fragrant and delicate, with a hint of salt and pepper, as well as a hint of sourness. The only thing that is not perfect is that the head and tail of the fish still have an earthy smell.

Luo Changning regretted while eating, it would be nice if he could have a few sips of the wine brewed by his aunt at this time, no, it would be better to have a whole gourd of wine.

After eating, washing his face, and splashing the pyre, he was about to leave, when he heard a roar behind him.

Roar –

He was startled, and looked at the place where the sound came from, and saw a big brown bear seven feet tall, with shiny fur, weighing about eight hundred pounds, roaring at him with its mouth wide open, no more than thirty paces away from it.

Brown bears are large, fanged, and vicious.

Luo Changning pondered: "Now although I have internal strength, I can't show it, I am not the opponent of this big bear at all, and there is no way to survive if I fight hard." If I escaped by water, the river was so shallow that even if I could breathe in the water, I would not be able to match my speed, but I would be easily pinned down. You can't climb a tree, a bear can climb faster than a human. ”

"Well, it's all my fault for being negligent that I stayed by the water's edge for so long, even if the beast was not attracted by the smell of blood, it would have to go to the river to drink. If so, it will be a big joke, and the blood will not be avenged, but I will die at the hands of a brute! ”

"Yes, although the bear is extremely fast, if I rush into the dense forest and escape from the dense trees, I may be able to fight for a chance to survive."

Although he thought a lot, it took a few moments for Luo Changning to make up his mind to run into the forest.

It's not that he is timid and cowardly, and he doesn't even have the courage to fight, but that his husband can do something and not do something, and he can bend and stretch. You must know how to judge the situation, and you can't afford to fight a wild bear and put yourself in danger for the sake of the courage of the moment. That kind of behavior is no different from suicide.

Although Luo Changning had died once, he spared his life, and the scene of being starved to death in his previous life is still vivid.

What's more, how could he die willingly in front of Dugu Bancheng, how could a good man die before he succeeded, became famous, and avenged?

Suddenly, I heard a girl's coquettish voice in the forest: "Big stupid bear, what are you doing so fast, I can't catch up with you!" ”

Soon, a girl in a pink dress trotted out of the forest and headed for the brown bear.

The brown bear smiled when he saw the girl's wide mouth, looking silly, as if he was not aggressive at all, and stretched out a hairy fat bear arm to pick the girl up and let her sit on it.

The girl looked even more petite on the behemoth's body, wrapped her arms around its neck, and arched the brown bear's neck affectionately, and the two looked like friends who had known each other for many years.

Luo Changning looked blankly at the pink-clothed girl and the big brown bear who were playing around as if no one was around, what is the situation, just now he showed his mouth full of fangs and looked like he was going to eat people, but now he licked the little girl's face with a flattering face?

"Little girl, that bear is your pet?" Luo Changning asked loudly.

Although both of them seem to be just little children, Luo Changning's soul is a fourteen-year-old boy after all, and it is not an exaggeration to see a girl about the same age as himself calling a little girl.

"Ah, someone!"

The girl tightened the brown bear tighter, looked up at Luo Changning with a vigilant gaze, and then blushed and whispered: "What a beautiful person......"

"Haha, you girl is so interesting, I'm not afraid of bears but afraid of people." Looking at the girl's startled cute appearance, Luo Changning couldn't help but quip.

"Hmph, what's so terrible about bears, people are the most terrible. My brother said that the people outside the mountain are all bad people and villains, and besides, the beasts in the mountain will not hurt me, like this big stupid bear will help catch fish and pick fruits. He pursed his lips and retorted, with a proud face.

After speaking, he wrinkled his nose, took a few breaths, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he looked at the woodpile that had been extinguished: "Wow, did you just grill fish here?" It smells so good......"

"No wonder you big stupid bear suddenly left me and ran away, it turned out that I smelled something delicious, and my nose was really smart." The girl pinched the brown bear's face and laughed.

The brown bear carried the girl to the river, and Luo Changning looked at the approaching behemoth no longer felt dangerous, but thought that this silly bear was as cute as its owner.

"My fish has long since been eaten, and even the bones have sunk to the bottom of the river, so it's hard for you two to still smell it." For some reason, he looked at the girl in pink and felt inexplicably close.

Is it because I want a sister? Luo Changning slandered in his heart.
