Chapter 148: Black Bear

Leng Xingyun still looked calm and nodded, looking like he was full of confidence in this aspect.

However, they still did a little trimming here, saying that it was trimming, but in fact it was like three people sitting there, emptying their brains for a while, and gagging each other.

After they finished repairing, the three of them went to the bear cave they had seen earlier.

The three of them stood at the door of the warehouse, looking at the monsters around the warehouse, and wanted to kill them all the way out with their weapons, but they didn't expect those monsters to just stand dumbfounded, without any obvious aggressive behavior towards them like before.

This made them very puzzled, because they had never encountered anything like this before, and it was the first time they had seen such a novel experience.

However, they did not stop and walked back in the direction of the top of the mountain.

They were lucky enough to have more stamina to deal with the somewhat mutated black bear, which was good news, because no one knew what kind of strength the black bear would be.

On the way back, there were no monsters to harass, and they just had to deal with the sudden start of the blizzard so that they wouldn't have any problems due to the cold temperature and even bigger snowflakes.

However, walking in the thick snow requires twice as much physical strength as usual.

But after staying for the past ten days, you have to get used to the things you should get used to, and this kind of road that is just a hard walk is also a good environment.

It was only a short time to go back, and then they saw the cave that had been driven by the wolves when they came, and Leng Xingyun first surveyed around the cave.

Zhang Fan and Qian Lang vigilantly paid attention to their surroundings, and they wanted to make sure that the wolves would not lurk around and become the profiteers of the last clam and crane to compete for.

After making sure that there was no problem, Zhang Fan looked at Leng Xingyun, and the two nodded silently to each other, telling each other that they had checked their safety.

So, Leng Xingyun stepped into the cave first. Zhang Fan and Qian Lang, who were outside, both understood what it meant, the space in the cave was too narrow, and they would always be the ones who would have the upper hand in a fight, and now Leng Xingyun went in alone, and the intention was no more obvious than that person to lure the black bear out.

I don't know what Leng Xingyun did, a rumbling cry came from the depths of the cave, followed by a wave of shaking movements.

The black bear woke up and was already coming out. Zhang Fan and Qian Lang were ready, holding their weapons with the smoothest hand, and the blade was facing the direction of the hole.

It's out!

The black bear, which was more than two meters tall, came out of the hole in a rage, with the cold nebula that he had just walked in, and the bronze dagger on the bear's back.

Zhang Fan and Qian Lang gave a look, and directly rushed over and stabbed the bear in the leg.

The angry voice directly resounded throughout the snow-capped mountains, and Leng Xingyun seized the opportunity at this time, pulled out the dagger and stabbed it deeply in the bear's neck, and the artery was cut. The animal's blood began to flow out rapidly, spreading on the white ground.

They have food.

"That's enough for us to eat for days!" The three of them who survived the catastrophe all found joy on each other's faces.

The flowers were about to bloom, and the three of them cheered each other up and rested in the cave.

The road to the summit was as steep as ever, and the fresh snow from the previous blizzard had solidified over the past few days in the sunshine and the cooling of the cold winds, almost indistinguishable from the perennial snow in other places. The cold wind hit the faces of the three people, but it was not like the previous knife cut.

Today is a rare good weather on the top of the snowy mountain, and the interest of the three of them is also higher, and they think that they can pick snow lotus flowers and go home after a while, and they can finally leave this snow-breaking mountain that has been staying for more than ten days, and they even have a lot of strength to climb the mountain.

happened to walk near the big rock before, and the scene where he almost lost his life before appeared in front of Zhang Fan's eyes again, Qian Lang's sad roar and Leng Xingyun's eyes after rescuing them from the catastrophe swept through Zhang Fan's mind one by one.

"Zhang Fan, hurry up, there is no snow or rain today." Qian Lang saw Zhang Fan in a daze and teased.

Zhang Fan came back to his senses, scolded Qian Lang with a smile, and quickened the pace of his feet.

Perhaps it was really God's favor today, and the whole way up the mountain was very smooth, and soon the three of them re-climbed to the top of the mountain.

Zhang Fan took a deep breath and took the lead in walking towards the place where he had previously explored the snow lotus.

"Why is Snow Lotus gone??" Zhang Fan exclaimed.

The other two listened to Zhang Fan's words and hurriedly walked a few steps to follow.

What catches your eye is still the cliff before, and the root system of the snow lotus can already be seen to be much more developed than before, thinking that it is already mature. But on the calyx, the delicate and delicate spiritual creature that should have grown on it was gone.

Just when everyone was dumbfounded, Leng Xingyun suddenly stepped forward and said, "Zhang Fan, hand me the jade knife used to collect medicinal materials." ”

Zhang Fan was very puzzled by the fact that the snow lotus was gone, but Leng Xingyun still asked for tools, but he didn't ask much, took out a small box from his bag and handed it to Leng Xingyun.

Leng Xingyun took the box and opened it, and Qian Lang next to him exclaimed:

"Good jade!"

I saw a warm white jade knife lying quietly in the box, the white jade knife was an inch and a half long, but the handle was a naturally growing texture and color, which looked very valuable, no wonder Qian Lang shouted. The ribbon used to wrap the white jade knife automatically spread out when Leng Xingyun opened the box just now, and the white jade knife lined with red silk became more and more flawless.

"This is the jade knife I specially prepared to use to pick lotus flowers." Zhang Fan explained.

Because the snow lotus is a spiritual object, if it is collected with ordinary metal, it will cause the flower to survive for a shorter time, so the employer may find trouble after bringing it back. Therefore, Zhang Fan deliberately found the jade knife he used to collect medicinal materials before, and the flawless jade knife would keep the roots of the medicinal materials from rotting as much as possible.

Leng Xingyun motioned for the two of them not to speak yet, carefully picked up the white jade knife, connected it with a sealed box underneath, and cut off the calyx quickly and accurately.

Although this calyx is not as useful as the snow lotus, it is better than nothing.

The three of them all knew the rules of the industry for collecting and keeping roots, and Leng Xingyun's hands did not hurt the rest of the plant at all.

"What now?" Qian Lang frowned and looked at the other two people, and at the same time saw the solemnity in the eyes of the other two people.

The snow lotus has been picked, and it can be seen in the diary of the explorer who could not be saved that none of their team survived. So it's definitely not them who did it.

Of course, it's not entirely certain that there are no survivors of that group of explorers, so where the snow lotus went is still a mystery.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the surrounding fog looked like the weather was about to change.

"Anyway, let's go back to the cave and take shelter." Zhang Fan suggested.

Looking at this weather, the three of them thought of the violent snowstorm again, and couldn't help but shiver, and they all saw fear in each other's eyes.

The three of them hurried slowly, and finally returned to the small cave where they had lived before with the calyx.

The cave was the same as before, dim and tight, Leng Xingyun re-lit the fire on the branches that had not been burned before, and the other two rubbed their hands together and quickly walked to the side of the fire and sat down.

"I really don't want to spend any more time in this place." Qian Lang complained while wiping the switchblade he used to borrow power during the previous climb.

"But the snow lotus is gone. I really want to complete the task and go back quickly. Zhang Fan said dejectedly.

"Zhang Fan, show me the explorer's diary again." Leng Xingyun didn't pick up the stubble of the two of them, took the diary handed over by Zhang Fan and looked through it carefully.

When the other two saw Leng Xingyun's actions, they also knew that it was useless to complain now, and they could only reduce their morale in vain. So the three of them began to seriously discuss the whereabouts of the snow lotus.

"I still wonder if there are still survivors of that expedition and finally got the snow lotus." Unconsciously staring at Leng Xingyun's action of flipping through the diary, Zhang Fan expressed his thoughts.

Leng Xingyun's diary over there had just turned to the last page, and with a snap, the diary was closed.

"I don't think so, there's no flaw in the diary, and it's ......" All three thought of the explorer's final appearance, and a hint of sadness and sympathy appeared on their faces.

"It's not going to be fake, it's not necessary, it's really not necessary." Leng Nebula made a decision.

"Who the hell sent this task, and sent threatening letters and demanded so much." Qian Lang was very irritable and gave up on himself. With a sonorous thud, he thrust the switchblade in his hand into a crack in the stone in the cave wall.

Dragged it and found that it couldn't be pulled out, Qian Lang felt a little embarrassed in hindsight, and felt that he shouldn't be so irritable.

"Calm down," Zhang Fan patted Qian Lang's shoulder to comfort, "Since it wasn't the expedition team that took the flowers, there is a high probability that the flowers are still on the mountain." We still have a chance. ”

Leng Xingyun helped Qian Lang pull the switchblade out of the cave.

"What's going on?!" Qian Lang exclaimed, and Zhang Fan on the side also came over when he heard it.

What appeared in front of the three of them was a crack caused by the switchblade being pulled out, and as soon as this crack appeared, it was as if it was connected, and a wind blew through the crack.

The three of them looked at each other, all shocked.

There is wind here, and there is also a space next door to the cave wall!

Thinking that they had been living in this cave for the past few days, and there was still space next door, and they didn't know what was in it, even on the cold snowy mountain, the three of them couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

The cool breeze whistled out of the crack, quickly drying the sweat of the three of them, and the bone-chilling chill crept up the skin of the three of them.

And the fissure, pitch black, without a trace of light in it, is like a black eye, peeking at everything here.

Leng Xingyun's eyes widened suddenly, because he found that the wind in the gap brought out a trace of snoring, and at the same time, the size of the wind was also rhythmic.

There are living creatures!
