Chapter 244 Qier Mountain
Lian's words not only did not scare Chu Jing, but made him sympathize with Bai Lan, a poor woman herself, her mother was poisoned a lot, and she even had to choose to die alone and obtain Blood Eagle eggs from the protection of the Blood Eagle.
And for Chu Jing, the Blood Eagle Egg is not difficult to obtain, he is a powerhouse in the Void Realm himself.
Chu Jing looked at Xu Qian and saw that although she was a little afraid of the blood eagle, her eyes were still firm.
Hehe, there seem to be very few martial artists on the Continent of Leaving God who are willing to pay for others.
"Well, as the leader of the Wave Adventure Troupe, I have decided to accept the task of Blood Eagle Egg for free. Well...... Members of the adventuring party who are willing to follow can get five taels of gold each. ”
Xu Qian and Lian were not as rich as Chu Jing, in order to increase their enthusiasm, Chu Jing had to take out sponsorship from his private money, anyway, gold and silver were worthless to him.
"This ......"
Bai Lan stood there embarrassed, she wanted to say something, but her money was used to buy materials and offer rewards to adventurers, and she couldn't get anything else except this small building.
The most important thing is that Chu Jing is really too angry, the value of five taels of gold is very high, and it is really not a price she can afford.
Xu Qian didn't feel sorry for Chu Jing's money bag in the slightest, but was a little happy, there were too many good things on the Blood Bones, she had always hoped to have an excuse to get some to fill her empty pockets, and now Chu Jing was willing to take out the gold to share, she naturally agreed with ten thousand.
"It's decided, I'll go!"
Chu Jing looked at Lian again, although it didn't matter if she went or not, but the alchemist's methods were varied, and maybe there would be a shortcut.
Lian said lightly: "I will naturally go, I have already seen this kind of monster like the Blood Eagle, and there are relatively few alchemists on other islands, I am afraid it will be more difficult to buy ready-made alchemy powder, and five taels of gold is exactly what I need." ”
Bai Lan looked at Chu Jing and the three of them gratefully, she didn't expect that a simple misunderstanding would be exchanged for such a return, these people are really good people.
“...... Thank you!"
A thousand words were finally turned into two simple words, but Bai Lan's gratitude was all in plain sight.
In the end, the four of them set off together, as for Bai Lan's mother, Lian gave her some tranquilizers, she didn't need to eat or drink for three days, and she wouldn't wake up, which was a means to deal with the captives, but it was also simple and practical to use here.
Three days later, Bai Lan had to go to the Adventurer's Guild to hand over the task, hoping that the adventurers could find other materials.
The nest of the Blood Eagle is not difficult to find, the Blood Eagle lives on the cliffs of the highest mountain ranges, and there are many mountains in Qianlong Island, and there are many such places.
Blood Eagle eggs are not very valuable materials, Juggernauts are not interested in them, and it is difficult for other adventurers to fight against the flying Blood Eagle, so Blood Eagle lives happily all over Qianlong Island.
Bai Lan chose a place called Qier Mountain, which was not far from the orchard, and it was sure that it would be possible to make a round trip in three days, and the mountain peak was steep enough to be an ideal place for the Blood Eagle to live.
When Chu Jing and the others came to Qianlong Island for the first time, they were extremely surprised by the scene on Qianlong Island, which was full of high mountains and dense forests, which was completely different from ordinary islands.
You must know that the other islands are either a large mountain or flat terrain, but Qianlong Island is looking intricate.
"That's probably why the red dragon has been hiding here all along. Chu Jing said with emotion.
The overseas islands are really different from the Lishen Continent, and there are wonders everywhere.
Chu Jing and the three of them enjoyed the scenery of Qianlong Island, but under the leadership of the anxious Bai Lan, it only took half a day to come to Qier Mountain. 、
As its name suggests, the wind blows in the mountains, and for some reason, it makes a terrible sound.
Bai Lan, a local, explained to Chu Jing and the others: "There is a strange stone on Qier Mountain, how empty, when the wind blows on it, there will be a sound, it is not something to be afraid of. ”
"Of course we won't be afraid, don't look at us as an adventure party of just three people, we are also a powerful adventure group that has killed trolls, cyclops, and manticores!"
Xu Qian was very proud of her achievements, an ordinary adventure group would not be able to hunt any of these monsters in a lifetime, but they did it, it was enough to upgrade to a gold-level adventurer.
The Silver Rank is the basic Adventurer Rank, which can be achieved by spending a little more Beso, and it is not much stronger than the Black Iron Tier.
Bai Lan did not doubt Xu Qian's words, after all, there was an alchemist in their adventure group, and in the outside world, the alchemist was omnipotent, and even he couldn't get rid of his mother's illness if he hired many doctors, and the alchemist gave a cure, which was magical.
"The Blood Eagle definitely exists here, and there are many adventurers who can prove that they have seen traces of the Blood Eagle in Qier Mountain, but we want to find them, and the nest happens to have unhatched Blood Eagle eggs, so we can only find them in person. ”
In the end, the four of them chose to act separately, which saved more time.
Everyone had a whistle with them, and whenever they noticed a situation or was in danger, they blew it vigorously to inform the others.
Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not dark, the four of them began to climb Qier Mountain.
Qier Mountain is not high, nor is it short, it is about four thousand meters, if it is a straight line, it will definitely not take much time, but climbing the mountain itself is a physically demanding thing, even if it is a small peak of several hundred meters, ordinary people need an hour or two to climb to the top of the mountain.
The steep mountain of Qier is even more difficult for the four people.
Fortunately, Xu Qian is a ranger, flexible and flexible, climbing is just a daily training item for her, and she starts to climb the steepest side with a rope on her back.
Bai Lan is a local, even if he has never been to Qier Mountain, he still has a lot of experience in mountaineering, so he chose the second difficulty.
After that, Chu Jing casually found an inaccessible road to climb to the top of the mountain.
Only the lotus is walking on the mountain road, the reputation of the strange stone of Qier Mountain is still very loud, there are many tourists who come here, but there is a small mountain road that is simply made for pedestrians.
Lian is an alchemist, and she still has the ability to protect herself, which is why she can become an adventurer.
Alchemists who focus on research and have no actual combat experience dare not go to the place where monsters gather to take risks at will.
Chu Jing walked on the barren mountain road, and he was sometimes interested in climbing the mountain, especially when the weather was fine, such as now, where the winter was not only not cold, but more suitable.
In the distance, there were birds soaring in the air, and as the altitude climbed, the bird's position was even lower than that of Chu Jing.
Chu Jing hadn't flown in the sky for a long time, and such a scene was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
At this time, the birds are all returning to their nests, but they have not seen the blood eagle yet, and it is not known whether the blood eagle will lay eggs in winter.
The season away from the God Continent is not suitable for the overseas islands, and Chu Jing can't judge.
There are really not many monsters on Qier Mountain, maybe the monsters also hate the noise made by the rocks on the mountain, and they have moved.
Chu Jing didn't find any other monsters along the way, but there were quite a lot of hares and pheasants, which didn't look like demon beasts at all. The world of monsters crisscrosses the world, and there is a feeling of paradise.
Chu Jing's speed is not slow, and he doesn't know where the others have arrived.
Suddenly, there was a whistle from Gao.
The whistle spreads very widely, and it is one of the necessary tools for distress on the sea.
Listening to the whistle, Chu Jing knew that someone else had discovered something, or encountered a certain situation.
The others should also hurry towards the place where the whistle sounded at this time, Chu Jing no longer hid leisurely, and immediately quickened his pace and rushed over.
The sound of the whistle continued, and the sound was very rapid and the position was also very biased, Chu Jing knew that someone might be in danger.
There was no one else around, Chu Jing simply no longer cared about the exposure of his strength, flew up in the air, and quickly rushed over.
On the cliff, Xu Qian was being entangled by a blood eagle.
The reason why Chu Jing knew that it was a blood eagle was because this eagle had blood-red feathers that covered its whole body, and its wings were two and a half meters, which was considered large in the category of eagles.
The Blood Eagle is not much different from a normal eagle in other aspects, except that the beak is sharper, the claws are sharper, and the power is greater.
With these attributes alone, the Blood Eagle is a very difficult monster to deal with.
I don't know how Xu Qian found the blood eagle and how she was attacked by this blood eagle, maybe this blood eagle's nest is nearby, it found Xu Qian and took the initiative to provoke.
Xu Qian didn't have much adventure experience, but she still learned a lot in the academy, and she knew that in this case, fighting against a flying monster on the cliff would definitely require 100,000 points of caution.
Xu Qian tied the rope she was carrying to her waist, and the other end was tied to the raised rock, pulled out the dagger hidden in her boots, and kept attacking the blood eagle, and the whistle in her mouth kept ringing.
From the time she was attacked by the Blood Eagle, Xu Qian didn't even have a chance to draw a bow and shoot arrows, so she had to defend herself to ensure that she would not be killed by the Blood Eagle, let alone fall off the cliff.
At this height, except for the Sword Master, even the Great Sword Master is definitely dead or alive.
Xu Qian's body had already been scratched by the blood eagle with many wounds, bright red blood flowed out, and the leather armor was even more damaged.
Perhaps at this time, Xu Qian began to regret why she was greedy for Besso instead of using troll skin to create a stronger leather armor.
Suddenly, the claws of the blood eagle attacked, Xu Qian's body flashed to the side, but the rope behind him had no way to dodge, and was suddenly torn off by the claws, and Xu Qian's body began to fall.
Chu Jing arrived just in time at this time, and when he saw the scene of Xu Qian's fall, he didn't hesitate, and immediately flew down and held Xu Qian in his arms.
"Chu Jing ......"
Chu Jing did not fly up or land directly at the foot of the mountain, but pulled out his sword and inserted it into the rock wall like cutting tofu at once.
The force of the slide cut a huge hole in the rock wall, and the speed of the descent slowed until it stopped.
The quality of the long sword is completely unable to reach this kind of operation, and it is completely dependent on the blessing of Chu Jing's internal force, so that the long sword does not break due to the huge force.
At this time, Chu Jing's tall figure was deeply reflected in Xu Qian's eyes, she thought she was going to die just now, but she didn't expect that it was Chu Jing who arrived in time and saved her.
"Chu Jing ......" Xu Qian, who was held in her arms, was just about to say something, when she suddenly saw the blood eagle that fell behind, and flew down and pounced.
"Be careful!"
Xu Qian struggled, wanting to resist the claws of the Blood Eagle for Chu Jing.
Chu Jing frowned, the entanglement of the blood eagle made him feel impatient, but he was just a monster, and he dared to sneak attack him from behind.
Chu Jing gently threw Xu Qian upwards with his left hand, took out an arrow from Xu Qian's quiver as fast as lightning, and threw it hard.
When Chu Jing re-caught Xu Qian, who had fallen back, the blood eagle let out a terrible cry, fell suddenly, flapped its wings in the air a few times and flew away.
He didn't die, Chu Jing couldn't believe that he couldn't kill the Blood Eagle with one arrow with all his strength, was it because he was on the wrong side, or because the Blood Eagle was too flexible.
"Ah......h
This shout was made by Xu Qian, who had just been thrown up by Chu Jing, which startled her, and was suddenly caught again, this one fell together, it really challenged her heart.
However, the Blood Eagle was injured and fled, which gave her a new understanding of Chu Jing's strength.
"Chu Jing, you are a great sword master. ”
Chu Jing didn't expect Xu Qian to ask such a question first after calming down, he looked around, if he didn't have to fly, it would be quite difficult to take a person up like this.
Xu Qian still has a lot of wounds on her body that are bleeding, and her leather armor is damaged, revealing slightly whiter skin, which is quite fair compared to places that are often exposed to the sun, and places that are not exposed to direct sunlight.
"Can you still move now?"
Xu Qian tried it, she didn't feel it in the face of the crisis just now, but now she felt pain in her body, and she didn't have the strength at all, the most important thing was that she wanted to stay in Chu Jing's arms for a while.
Xu Qian shook her head and rested her head lightly on Chu Jing's shoulder.
Chu Jing didn't care, even if he hung here for a whole day, he wouldn't feel tired, this was the powerful physical fitness of a Ling Xuan Realm martial artist.
Xu Qian's whistle had sounded a long time before, and at this time, the whistle had already fallen down the cliff when Xu Qian was shouting, and Lian and Bai Lan should have known that someone was in trouble here, so they should hurry up.
After a while, Bai Lan found the two people who were still hanging on the rock wall.
They were far away from the place where the whistle sounded, and they could be found, or because Chu Jing faintly heard someone above shouting his name and responded loudly, so that Bai Lan knew their exact location.
"Don't move, I'll come and save you now!"
Bai Lan shouted with an eager face, Xu Qian and Chu Jing were both here for her, and now that they were in danger, she naturally felt very guilty in her heart.
Hearing Bai Lan's words, Xu Qian said, "Don't come first, there is a blood eagle nearby, it's very dangerous for you to come here." ”
Perhaps it was their shouting that Lian also heard, she walked on a small mountain road, not steep, and the speed of climbing was also the slowest, she was still halfway up the mountain when the whistle sounded, knowing that she couldn't catch up, so she simply continued to walk slowly.
However, fortunately, when she passed by here, she heard Bai Lan and Chu Jing talking loudly.
"Wait, let me do it. ”
Lian trotted over quickly, took out a small packet of alchemy powder from her backpack, and sprinkled it on the rope that Bai Lan was about to go down.
"The soul of the snake, the snake shadow accompanies you, the rope turns into a snake!"
The rope instantly seemed to have life, and it actually climbed up with a twist and twist.
"This way. ”
Lian grabbed the rope that came to life and ran in one direction.
While Bai Lan was surprised, she also followed closely behind.
Finally, Bai Lan chased after Lian's meaning, she came to a place parallel to Chu Jing and Xu Qian, and wrapped one end of the rope around the tree.
"Go!"
With Lian's command, the other end of the rope quickly crawled towards Chu Jing.
Chu Jing watched inexplicably as the rope crawled over like a snake, completely unaware of Lian's plans.
"Did she let us hold on to the rope?" Xu Qian lost too much blood from her wound, her face was pale, and she was very weak.
Soon, Chu Jing understood the role of this rope, and saw the rope crawling everywhere in the stone crevices of the rock wall, especially the hole where Chu Jing's long sword was torn, but it didn't come over for the long sword, as if it was afraid that it would be cut by the sharp blade.
After many times of winding various rock bulges, cracks, and ropes have been tied very strongly.
"Looks like we need to use the rope to get over on our own. ”
Chu Jing let go of the long sword with his right hand and let Xu Qian hug him tightly, then the long sword was returned to its sheath and began to climb the rope.
Because it is directly connected to the side, the distance is very short, and it does not take half a minute.
Bai Lan hurriedly took Xu Qian, then took out the wound medicine, and immediately bandaged the wound for Xu Qian to stop the bleeding.
Lian's gaze was looking into the distance, Chu Jing followed her gaze, and saw a red figure hovering in mid-air.
This should be the Blood Eagle, but I don't know if it is the same as the Blood Eagle that was just shot and injured by Chu Jing.
Listening to the cry of the blood eagle, the injury should be very serious.
"It seems that the Blood Eagle has an extremely strong sense of territory, and even if it is just climbing the cliff, it is very likely to be attacked by them. ”
Lian's tone was not lighthearted, in fact, the Blood Eagle Egg was a little rarer than she believed.
If there is a Sword Saint to make a move, then the Blood Eagle Egg is still quite easy, but it is just that the Sword Saint cannot be found to be willing to do this kind of thing in a short period of time, for the strong, the general money and things, they don't pay much attention to it.
Even if you are an adventurer, when you reach the level of Juggernaut, you are no longer simply doing tasks, but taking risks for your interests.
There are not even many adventurers at the level of a great swordsman, and the swordsman is the core of the adventurer team.
"How many Blood Eagles will there be?" Chu Jing asked.
Lian replied, "Blood Eagle has at least one female and one male, and a few have brothers and sisters living together, which is very troublesome. ”
At least two?
It was hard for Chu Jing to imagine that he couldn't use the flying situation if he dealt with the plural blood eagles.
Chu Jing asked again, "At this time, can you really find the Blood Eagle Egg?"
"I don't know, we have to find the nest of the blood eagle to be sure, fortunately, the nest of the blood eagle during the incubation period is different from the nest of the ordinary blood eagle, and it can be easily identified. ”
Xu Qian was bandaged and still a little weak, but the injury was not serious.
Adventurers are found to be injured, and the effect of the wound medicine used by adventurers has long evolved to be so powerful that it will not even leave any scars.
