Chapter 321: No Risk
"Don't have to go? Why? Qin Ruyan asked, not only her, but also others didn't understand that Hou Jiangong would suddenly say such a sentence.
Hou Jiangong said: "I think the spirit monkey I raised should have gotten the spirit wine." ”
After Hou Jiangong reminded him of this, everyone remembered that this Hou Jiangong raised a spirit monkey, which is the same species as the iron-armed spirit monkey of the wild monkey slope. It's just that this demon monkey didn't act with everyone along the way, and then after a series of changes, everyone forgot about this stubble, and now that I think about it, Hou Jiangong must have taken the spirit monkey, but it was used as a backhand.
Qin Ruyan asked, "Did your spirit monkey get the spirit wine?" ”
Hou Jiangong said: "Because the demon beast has different habits from us, I have always asked him to follow in the dark and act when the opportunity arises. After the monkey king was trapped, the demon monkey in the demon monkey cave was also lured out by us, and the spirit monkey took advantage of the chaos to enter the cave and steal a jar of spirit wine. ”
The Monkey King is so powerful that everyone still has palpitations when they think about it, even if they are injured, they have the ability to kill a few of them, so no one wants to fight each other again, if the spirit monkey really steals the spirit wine, everyone doesn't have to take any more risks.
"Really? That's great, so we don't have to take any risks. But where's your monkey? Why don't you join us all the time? Qin Ruyan said in surprise.
"Later, the umbrella was killed in battle, we were chased and killed by the monkey king, I didn't want the umbrella corpse to be in the wilderness, so I asked the spirit monkey to snatch the corpse of the umbrella back, but we met the three evils of Nanling, I was captured, and temporarily lost contact with the spirit monkey. However, I have a sense that he is not too far away from us, and if we look around, we should be able to find him. Hou Jiangong said.
The monk is connected to the spirit insects and spirit beasts under his control, and can not only communicate with each other, but also feel the approximate location of the other party, but this connection has a distance limit, and once this distance is exceeded, the contact will be broken.
After Hou Jiangong was captured by the three evils of Nanling, he was directly taken to Nanling Cottage, which was dozens of miles away from the wild monkey slope, and it was normal for the spirit monkey to not find him for a while. Now that a day or two has passed, it's almost time for the spirit monkey to come and find it.
Qin Ruyan thought that Hou Jiangong was spending the spirit beast he raised to prevent everyone, but now he knew that it was actually to help him get the spirit wine, and then he sent him to retrieve the body of the umbrella for himself, but he didn't expect that an outsider would do it better than her, the master.
The umbrella has been with Qin Ruyan for more than ten years, after all, there is some affection between the two, Qin Ruyan's eyes turned red, and he said to Hou Jiangong: "Senior Brother Hou, thank you very much." ”
Being so solemnly thanked by Qin Ruyan, Hou Jiangong was not used to it, and hurriedly said: "No, no, in fact, I haven't done anything, compared to Senior Brother Qingyang." ”
This is true, if there is no Qingyang this time, I am afraid that they will be wiped out, it was Qingyang who first found a way to kill the rolling gopher, and then united with Tian Shengcai, Cui Yu'an and others to kill one ear, and the comparison of strength between the two sides has changed.
After that, Qingyang resisted the one-eyed dragon Leng Yu at a critical moment, and sacrificed his spirit insect to bite the one-eyed dragon Leng Yu, which can be described as a high degree of hard work and a life-saving grace for everyone.
Everyone has already discussed, the loot this time is considered Qingyang's, and when they go back, they hand over the corpse of one ear of the rolling gopher, and the rewards they get will be given to Qingyang.
Qin Ruyan also cashed in the reward she promised before she came, ten spirit stones per person, although these ten spirit stones cannot be compared with the dangers encountered by everyone, but it is not a small amount, ten spirit stones in two months, it is much better than staying in Qingfeng Hall to do tasks.
Qin Ruyan's talisman was still retrieved by Qingyang, if it weren't for Qingyang, she wouldn't even be able to afford this little spirit stone. Not only that, Qingyang also returned the other two talismans to Hou Jiangong and Deng Changting, there are not many things in them, there is no need to make others unhappy because of this little thing, Qingyang subdued the Monkey King this time, obtained a large amount of spirit wine, and the harvest is still very large.
Now that there is spirit wine, there is no need to take any more risks, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief. Although Hou Jiangong's injuries to his limbs were not all healed, they did not affect his walking, so Deng Changting accompanied him to the bottom of the mountain to look for the lost spirit monkey, while the others continued to repair in Nanling Cottage.
The two went out for most of the day, and in the middle of the afternoon, the spirit monkey with Hou Jiangong returned to the cottage, not only bringing back a jar of monkey spirit wine, but also the corpse of the umbrella. The nine people who set out from the Breeze Hall were finally together, but two of them were corpses.
Everyone is a monk, and they have seen a lot of life and death, but they are not so sad, only Qin Ruyan, Shi Jian and Deng Changting stood in front of the two corpses for a while.
The umbrella and Deng Changzhu had no relatives in the sect, so there was no need to bring the corpses back, so everyone buried the two corpses directly in the Nanling cottage.
By the third day, everyone's injuries had recovered by six or seven percent, and the injuries were relatively light, such as Cui Yu'an and Shi Jian's external injuries had all healed, and the injuries were more serious, and the wounds were basically healed. Internal injuries need to be recuperated slowly, but the overall strength has recovered seventy or eighty percent, and there is no problem with self-preservation.
Qingyang's blood-burning postoperative sequelae have long since receded, and most of his internal injuries have healed, the only pity is that the dragon armor on his body, which was repeatedly injured during the melee with the demon monkey, and was finally slapped coldly by the one-eyed dragon, almost completely scrapped.
With the improvement of Qingyang's strength, the mid-grade defensive magic weapon-level dragon armor is no longer practical for him, and it is just right to scrap it, and he can change it to a better one when he turns around.
The matter has been done, there is no need to continue to delay here, on the morning of the third day, everyone packed up and left the Nanling cottage together, heading in the direction of Qingfeng Palace.
Everyone stayed overnight along the way, rushed during the day, temporarily found a place to rest at night, drank some mountain stream water directly when thirsty, ate a little dry food when hungry, and occasionally beat a beast to improve their lives, and the road was smooth and smooth, and there was no more danger.
Qin Ruyan would set up her tent every night, and would ask the sword to cook a delicious dinner for her, and in the morning, she would continue to go to the river to freshen up, and most of the journey would also require the spotted deer to walk. However, compared to the time, Qin Ruyan had already done things a lot neatly, and he didn't delay everyone's time too much, so the return trip was very fast, and it only took twenty days.
After this incident, Qin Ruyan seems to have grown, although there are still many small problems, but at least he is not as hypocritical as before, and he no longer commands others, but there seems to be a trace of inexplicable things in his eyes towards Qingyang.
