Chapter 239: Extremely sour
With the thick smoke billowing out, the monsters scattered and fled, and Lu Li soon entered the center of the giant beast graveyard unimpeded, and just as he was privately looking for the sea buckthorn fruit tree, he suddenly heard a violent cough in front of him, and at the same time there were various complaints.

"Ahem, ahem, bastard, what the hell is all this black smoke? My throat is so sad! And my eyes keep watering water!"
"Idiot! Hold your breath! Didn't you notice that those monsters were all smoked away? Bear with it! Every time you collect one now, you get a hundred and fifty gold pagodas!"
"That's right! I think this must be some kind of expensive magic item! It's better than picking and guarding against sneak attacks!"
"Damn, but the smell is too strong, isn't it? I can't hold on anymore! cough cough cough ......."
"Hold on! You know, it's not easy to come to the center of the giant beast graveyard once! I have to hide from some! I still want to take a few back to my mother to cure my old stomach pain. ”
"Shut up! Concentrate on me! Remember, don't break the skin, or the fruit will wither in ten minutes, and the withered fruit will have no value!"
......
Seeing everyone embarrassed in the smoke, Meow Lori covered her mouth and laughed secretly, her eyes were even more dripping, and she knew that she must be gloating.
Cat Man's original personality was a bit naughty and mischievous, and a group of adults with snot and tears were really a bit of a comedy, so she couldn't control her emotions at all.
Lu Li was afraid that the girl couldn't help laughing, so he hurriedly pulled her around to the side, and found the legendary golden sea buckthorn fruit around a sandy area surrounded by white bones.
Outwardly, these stout and spiky plants resemble the shrubs of the earth, most of them between one and a half to three meters, and a few of them are particularly tall, tightly wrapped around a huge skeleton, more than ten meters high, covered with slender green leaves, and the fruit is basically concentrated in the branches, which at first glance look like a bunch of golden grapes, with slightly larger grains than cherries.
"Uncle Meow, this is a magical magic plant that claims to be able to alleviate all ailments?" Meow Lori blinked curiously.
Lu Li took one out of his hand, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and immediately nodded: "That's right! It should be it, I don't know how it tastes." ”
With that, he gently wiped it with his hand and threw it directly into his mouth.
Moment!
An unbelievably sour smell fills the mouth!
It's a hundred times more sour than lemon and vinegar!
Lu Li didn't even hold back, he shivered several times on the spot, and finally swallowed it in a hurry, not daring to chew much. He couldn't believe that there was such an extreme sour taste in the world.
Meow Lori subconsciously swallowed her saliva and asked cautiously, "Big ...... Uncle, good ...... Is it delicious?
"Hmmm! It tastes great! Didn't you see that I couldn't help but shiver twice?"
In line with the principle that the guinea pig must not let me be alone, Lu Li pretended to be indifferent, and the bewitching girl also tasted it.
Not only the girl, but he also picked one for Xiu Xiu and Squeak.
Meow Lori, who has never been defenseless, didn't think much about it at all, grabbed one and threw it in her mouth, and Xiu Xiu also rolled it into her mouth with her tongue, only Squeak was more vigilant, holding the sea buckthorn fruit and sweeping the other two people's faces suspiciously.
Facts have proved that gerbil beasts can thrive and survive for tens of thousands of years in the vast sand sea, which is not unreasonable, and this vigilance alone is worth learning.
As soon as she took a bite, Meow Lori let out a miserable cry: "Ah! Meow Meow! It's so sour! It's sour! Uncle! You liar! Bad guy!"
"Boil!Woowoo......"
Xiuxiu's whole face twisted together, and it also let out a howl of condemnation, and its taste was very sensitive, and it was even soured to tears.
"Hahahaha! I'm going to teach you both a lesson today, be careful when you eat in the future, and don't stuff anything in your mouth. Look at how smart Squeak is, it understands that it must not easily eat something it does not recognize. With that, Lu Li rubbed the gerbil beast's little head with his fingers.
The latter stuck out his tongue triumphantly, followed by the sea buckthorn fruit, and forced it to gnaw on the sour taste.
The little monster's intelligence is very high, almost the same as that of a human child, so it knows that this fruit is good for its body, and as for the taste, it doesn't matter at all.
"Huh, bad guy!meow!" Meow Lori pursed her mouth indignantly.
Lu Li held back a smile, pinched the girl's face and said, "Yo, I'm still angry." Okay, I'll promise to bring you something fun as an apology next time I come, how about it?"
"Really?"
As soon as she heard the word gift, Meow Lori's attention was quickly diverted, and her eyes showed undisguised anticipation.
"Of course it's true! Except for the joke just now, when have I ever lied to you. Now let's quickly find a plant about one meter tall, dig it up by the roots and take it away. As he spoke, Lu Li kissed the other party on the forehead affectionately, stood up and began to look around for a suitable transplant partner.
After about a few seconds, he found a small tree under a large tree, a little over a meter long, which was very short, but it was already fruitful, and it should fit in a woven bag just enough to fit in the roots.
Without hesitation, he immediately approached and began to dig up the sand with the lid of the kettle.
Realizing this, Xiu Xiu ran over to help without saying a word, its claws were large and sharp, and it took less than thirty seconds or so to see the thick rhizome.
It may be that it grows in the desert and the water source is scarce, and the root system of the golden sea buckthorn fruit is too large, and after digging it out thoroughly, Lu Li was surprised to find that the underground part is far more lush than the aboveground part, but fortunately, most of them are small roots and can't occupy too much space.
In order to maximize the survival rate, he also dug a lot of deep sand, and finally wrapped it with duct paper and stuffed it into the magic backpack.
After doing all this, the two of them began to pick those ripe sea buckthorn fruits, until a bright red fireball appeared in the distant sky, and then stopped and followed the large army to retreat.
Because the appearance of red fireballs in the sky means that the giant lizards that have been lured away have returned.
"Let's go, let's go, don't pick it up, leave if you don't want to die, the monitor lizards are coming back!" Ignatius waved his thick arms and shouted to everyone.
But unfortunately, before everyone could retreat, they saw a spectacular saloon emerging from the large sand dunes in the distance, which rushed down the hundred-meter high slope at a great speed and charged straight towards the adventurers.
The first of these is a leader who reminds him of being three times larger than a normal monitor lizard, which is not only stronger and more powerful than its peers, but also has an orange-red fire in its mouth...... (To be continued.) )
