Volume 2 Ice Age Chapter 206 Ethereal Swamp (1)

Chapter 206: Ethereal Swamp (1)

The Ethereal Swamp has existed since before the arrival of human beings, at that time it was not called the Ethereal Swamp, but the Hidden Spirit Valley, which means the valley where the Xuan Qi is hidden, in this area, there is no trace of Xuan Qi in the air, and some people have tried to bring a large number of spirit stones here to change the environment here, but when the spirit stone is exposed, the spirit stone instantly turns pale gray from pale yellow, and the Xuan Qi contained in the spirit stone dissipates without a trace in an instant, and there is not even a trace of clues.

And the cultivator's own Xuan Power was also suppressed to the death, and it could not overflow half a point, because the dense fog filled the land and the land was damp for nearly half of the year, so this place was renamed the Ethereal Swamp from then on.

Occasionally, a few swiftlets passed by in the sky, and in the canopy of the forest, a figure moved quickly on the treetops.

"This place is really big, I have searched so many places and tried so many trees, but there is no trace of the forbidden spirit cloud tree."

This person is naturally Chen Cao, the ethereal swamp is the paradise of all kinds of low-level demonic beasts, because of the swamp, so there is no existence of Xuan Qi here, and all the creatures here have no Xuan power, only pure power.

Chen Cao raised his right hand to run the Xuan Li, only attached a very light layer to his fist, raised his head and looked ahead, his face was full of solemnity.

"The space here is very strange, as if there is an invisible shackle that suppresses my mystical power, it is better to be careful when looking for treasures here."

Jumping hard, jumping to the distant tree, the branches shook and the leaves fell, Chen Cao looked around, and from time to time in the forest where the beast roared continuously, a frightened bird flew out of the black press.

"Although the demonic beasts here do not have the support of Xuanli, their physical strength is extremely strong, and they may only be stronger than the demonic beasts outside."

Chen Cao's sigh of emotion is not alarmist, just yesterday, he fought hard with a demon wolf for a long time, because the power of the Xuan Force was suppressed, he could only use the strength of the flesh to fight with him, but it was extremely unfavorable to him here, fighting for an hour, he did not kill the second-order demon wolf, and even suffered a little injury himself, but fortunately, the demon wolf found that he was not a master to mess with, so he retreated.

For Warcraft, breaking out into a fight to the death is a taboo in itself, Warcraft is different from humans, human injuries can be healed, and low-level Warcraft once it is seriously injured, waiting for it is nothing more than three endings.

First, it was attacked by other monsters and became its beast rations.

Second, during the period of recuperation, his ability to hunt was greatly reduced, and he starved to death.

Even if you are lucky enough to survive, your combat power will definitely be greatly reduced, and no matter which outcome is very fatal for Warcraft.

Suddenly, Chencao stopped and hid, because he heard someone talking in front of him and brushed away the leaves in front of him.

Through the gap between the leaves, he saw two middle-aged black-robed men sitting around the fire eating barbecue, it seemed that the two did not notice him, one of them tore off a piece of meat and chewed it in his mouth, while complaining:

"Big brother, it's been more than ten days since we came to this ghost place, not to mention that there are treasures, even a slightly better jade stone has not been seen." As he spoke, he took out a piece of jade with cracks from his arms, checked it and took a bite of barbecue: "How many spirit stones is worth this?" It's not enough for Lao Tzu to pay for a pot of wine! Big brother, you said that stinky old man wouldn't lie to us, right? ”

The other person was also worried, and his face was very ugly.

"Mr. Wang won't lie to me, besides, we still have to pay off the debt, if we weren't deceived by the grandson surnamed Gou, how would I borrow money to buy such a thing."

"Big brother, don't talk about it, I'll be angry when I talk about that dog! Damn it! That dog thing! looks kind, but in fact he is an unscrupulous profiteer! That's obviously a tattered high-level exercise, not to mention that it must be manifested with something special! It's better to say than to sing! Uncle Grass! ”

As he spoke, he stood up and rolled up his sleeves.

"Big brother! We've tried countless treasures in the past few months to make that exercise manifest, but it's just a piece of waste paper! It's all that hook skin! Let Lao Tzu catch him and pick his skin! ”

The eldest brother who was on the side said bitterly with a sad face:

"Second brother, don't say it, it's better to find a few more places to complain, in case we find a valuable treasure, we can also sell it as soon as possible to pay off the debt, those creditors in the province chase their butts every day to ask for debts, you must know that those people are people from the great sect of the Wind Shadow Empire, and we can't afford to provoke them."

The man was immediately furious, and then blew his beard and glared and scolded.

"It's a fart! Eldest brother! I think those people must be in the same group as that profiteer, and they just gang up to deceive us honest people! ”

As he spoke, the faces of the two became more and more ugly, and the more they talked, the more angry they became, the second brother threw the barbecue in his hand to the side, he sat aside angrily, I don't know if he was angry with his naivety, or angry with an unscrupulous businessman, the other shook his head and sighed, and his regret could also be seen from his expression.

Hearing this, Chen Cao also understood most of it, and secretly said in his heart: These two people don't look like good stubble, their faces look very vicious, Chen Cao thought it was a local snake or a robber somewhere, it turned out that these two people were deceived into coming here to find treasure.

Because the Xuanli was suppressed here, but he couldn't explore the realm of people at a distance of seven or eight zhang, Chen Cao thought about it, and it was not a good way to look for it aimlessly here, since these two people had been here for more than ten days, they must have gained something, so he decided to test it.

After that, Chen Cao jumped down from the treetops, and the two of them were startled, and then the cold blade came out of the sheath and spoke in unison.

"Who!"

The two glanced at each other and clenched the cold blade in their hands a little tighter, the second child's expression was obviously unnatural, he looked a little nervous, and he had almost no confidence in speaking.

"You... Who are you! Get your name in! Say! You... You, you! Isn't it rushing... Debt collection! I'm telling you! When my eldest brother and I find the treasure, we will return it to you! ”

He turned his head to glance at the other person beside him, as if he had taken a reassuring pill, only to see him swallow a mouthful of saliva, but his steps were still not listening and retreating.

Chen Cao shook his head lightly, and secretly said that people are not good-looking, this person who looks very vicious is so daring, he stepped forward and said with pleasure: "You don't need to panic, I'm not a debt collector." ”

"Not here to collect debts?

The two spoke in unison, looked at each other again, and the second child said, "Is this true?" ”

"Of course." Chen Cao smiled faintly with his back hand.

Chen Cao's words seemed to give the two of them confidence, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm scared to death."

The second child patted his chest and wiped the sweat beads from his forehead, and the other person looked bolder, and the eldest took a step forward and hugged his hand and said, "I don't know what this little brother is called?" ”

Chen Cao stepped forward and straightened his waist and said: "My surname is Chen, and my single name is Cao, if you don't dislike it, call me by my name." ”

The two looked at each other and silently recited his name in their hearts, Chen Cao glanced at the two of them, and said, "I don't know what the two brothers call them." ”

At this time, the two finally confirmed that this person was not here to collect debts, and even the mood was a little better, the second child smiled and patted his chest and said: "My name is Zhao Hu, I am a cheerful person, since Brother Chencao is not here to ask for debts, then we are buddies." ”

The other person was more calm: "My name is Zhao Long, I am Zhao Hu's eldest brother, our family lives in Zhaojiazhuang, East County of the Wind Shadow Empire, I don't know what the little brother is looking for the two of us?" If we can help my little brother, our two brothers will tell him the truth. ”

Through this conversation, Chen Cao understood that this Zhao Long should be an honest person, and that Zhao Hu was straightforward and fast-talking, and if he didn't know how to go around the corner, he would definitely offend many people, and it didn't seem so difficult to understand that the two of them were pitted.

Chen Cao smiled.

"Hehe, it's not a big deal, I just think it's more dangerous for a person in this swamp to partner with two brothers, and it will be a little more safe, as for the treasures found, we will divide them equally, even if I don't find it, I will give you a gift, and it will all be a thank you gift."

"Good! As long as it's not a debt collector! I Zhao Hu agreed! ”

"Second brother, you!" Zhao Long's eyes widened, and then he sighed helplessly.

"Big brother! What's wrong with me! As long as it's not a debt collector! I'm afraid he'll do much! Besides, how dangerous it is for such a little brother to be alone in this swamp! Don't talk about it! And so it was decided! ”

Zhao Hu's face was full of joy, and he walked quickly to Chen Cao, and his two rough hands patted Chen Cao's shoulders.

"Oops! Brother! Great, we have another company, let's go, my brother invites you to drink. ”

Saying that, Zhao Hu pulled him and walked to the place where he was sitting just now, Chen Cao was made his scalp numb by Zhao Hu's sudden enthusiasm, and kept waving his hand and repeating that I don't drink.

But Zhao Hu couldn't help but say to Chen Cao, picked up the wine jug from the ground and stuffed it into Chen Cao's mobile phone, and said with an ugly face: "Alas! Brother Chencao! This is your fault, I Zhao Hu invited you to drink because I looked up to you, but I really treat you as a brother! Brother, don't refuse, if you refuse, you will look down on me Zhao Hu! I'm going to be angry! ”

This sentence instantly made Chen Cao speechless, he just wanted to say a few words, when did he look down on him?

Zhao Long opened his mouth and persuaded:

"Second brother, if Brother Chencao doesn't drink, don't force others to drink."

Zhao Hu immediately replied: "Alas! Eldest brother! Why don't you help him talk? No way! He must drink this wine! If you don't drink it, you look down on me! I'm going to beat him! ”

Chen Cao suddenly felt a buzzing in his head and his scalp was numb, and he was speechless for a while when he recalled the amount of alcohol he had, but if he didn't drink this wine like this, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to say anything, took a deep breath, and then exhaled, gritted his teeth and heart, and said secretly! Get out!

snatched the wine jug from Zhao Hu's hand.

"Okay, good, I'll drink, I'll drink."

Zhao Hu suddenly smiled.

"Alas! That's right! Leave me some! ”

snatched back the wine gourd from Chencao's hand and drank it in a big gulp.
