72. Vermilion fruit

Xiao Changsheng pointed to the little brown fur beast that floated past in the river holding a log, turned his head and shouted to the mute girl who was cooking milk for Xiao Changsheng, "Cub? ”

Yu Yao heard the sound of the boat, so he turned his head and saw a familiar creature.

A small otter cub.

Yu Yao glanced at the cub, who was a little familiar and a little unfamiliar, and got up and flew towards the pile of rotten wood.

It took Yu Yao a few seconds to free the little creature from the rotten wood, and just as she was about to leave, Yu Yao saw another adult female otter appear in the river.

The adult female otter saw the little otter in Yu Yao's hand and began to cry out excitedly, "Huh!! ”

The voice of the adult female otter was very high-pitched, and the little otter cub who heard the sound turned its head in the direction of the female otter and shouted, "Boom! ”

They look like a mother and daughter?

The adult female otter struggled a little strangely, and when Yu Yao looked at it, she found that she was stuck in a pile of twisted wires.

Seeing Yu Yao come to save her, the little otter still knew how to bow her hands, and half of her body bent down.

"You're clever ......"

Yu Yao looked at the spiritual female adult otter, and a thin sword appeared between her hands, and then cut the barbed wire that trapped her, and carried her out.

The adult female otter had her leg cut by barbed wire, and the wound had festered, and if she stayed in the water for half a day, she was afraid that even the gods would not be able to save her, but fortunately she met Yuyao.

Yu Yao dug up the carrion on the otter's body, and the mute girl helped the female otter to bandage her wounds, and the idle little Changsheng approached the little otter sleeping on the big leaves.

Xiao Changsheng had never seen such a fluffy creature that could scream, and for him, who had always developed later than other children, this small otter was still very big for him.

The little otter held the bottle that the mute girl gave her and purred through the milk that should have belonged to Xiao Changsheng, drinking it, and gently patting its fluffy tail.

After cutting the otter's flesh, Yuyao went to inspect a river, and found no other animals, so he returned.

As soon as I came back, I saw Xiao Changsheng holding a little otter cub in his arms. The little otter didn't resist, and Xiao Changsheng touched her from head to tail.

The female otter is holding the corn cob that the mute girl gave her, and is gnawing on it.

It seems that they get along quite harmoniously.

But here's the question, isn't it possible that she wants to take these two guys with her, although there are not many places on the ship, but it's not impossible to put these two again.

Yu Yao looked at Xiao Changsheng and seemed to like this little otter very much, more than he liked civets, and he couldn't put it down until he hugged it directly.

Faced with the pitiful eyes of Xiao Changsheng who wanted to take them in and the little otter begged to take them in, Yu Yao hesitated for a moment, and took these two with him with a soft heart.

Yu Yao looked at Xiao Changsheng, who was holding a bottle and drinking milk with the little otter, turned his head and called the mute girl over, "Yawen, come here." ”

When the dumb girl heard Yu Yao's call, she hurriedly stepped aside, and heard Yu Yao ask, "Tomorrow I will go to that valley to pick vermilion fruits, will you go in with me, or will you wait for me on the boat?" ”

The mute girl hesitated for a moment before writing, "If you go in, will it cause you trouble?" ”

The place where Vermilion Fruit lives is too hot, and it is really uncomfortable for them with mermaid blood, if there is no danger in the outside world, it is better to stay outside.

"It's not bothersome, it's just outside. I'm not sure when it's coming out? Yu Yao pointed to the little white crane eating grass on the top of the mountain, "When the time comes, if I go in, I will put away the boat, and you and the little white crane may have to stay outside in the next few days." ”

The little white crane has no way to drive this boat with a beast, if someone really wants to come, it is not safe for this boat to be placed outside, not only will a weapon be given to others for nothing, but there may be no one at that time.

Once in danger, the little white crane carries the mute girl and the little Changsheng and two otters, and there is still a chance to escape if they rise directly into the air, but this is only when there are few people.

The mute girl understood Yu Yao's words, and finally chose to stay outside. Once someone wants to come here, follow Yu Yao inside, maybe Yu Yao won't be able to get anything, maybe he will have to take care of the four of them, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The dumb girl felt that she was already too troublesome for Yuyao, and as a Jindan monk, she could shelter two mortals like this, and the dumb girl was already very content.

Yu Yao was not reluctant, and said directly, "Tomorrow we will go to that valley, I will let Baihe go next door, you will stay on that side for a few days, and I will come back to you when I come out." ”

So it was settled, and early in the morning the rain made the little white crane stop at the hill next to the valley, prepared a convenient tent for the mute girls, and then put the boat away.

The mute girl has a treasure bag given by Yu Yao, but she has too little aura and can only open it once a day, so most of the food is directly taken outside.

Yu Yao said goodbye to the mute girl and dived directly into the valley where there was a vermilion tree.

The valley was originally a crater, but it was an extinct volcano, and it had been dead for many years, and the outside of the valley was covered with greenery, except for the bare boulder in the middle.

This valley is fortunately not in the range of flooding, because it is cold outside these days, and the temperature of the valley is relatively high, so there are many small animals gathered on the periphery, and the vermilion fruit she is looking for is under the boulder in the middle of the valley.

Why is it so hot?

Yu Yao, who had landed on the boulder in the center of the crater, only felt that his feet were about to be burned red.

Running away from the boulder in embarrassment, Yu Yao looked at the boulder a little uncertainly, and said, "Fire Spirit Stone? ”

It seems that where there is a volcano, there are fire spirit stone veins underneath, and generally the fire spirit stone veins of an extinct volcano like this have long been hollowed out. But after stepping here, she found that there should be a lot of fire spirit stones underneath here, otherwise how could she raise such a big vermilion fruit.

However, the quality of this fire spirit stone should be a bit high......

Yu Yao was thoughtful.

Shouldn't this vermilion fruit have a master?

That old man lied to her?

Yu Yao hesitated, but decided to go down, come and come, don't take a look?

Yu Yao silently raised his Wanjia talisman, holding the rainstorm pear flower talisman in his hand, and finally felt that it was still a little unsafe, and took out the heavenly thunder talisman again.

Under the boulder in the center of the valley, there was a very empty cave, and Yu Yao saw the vermilion fruit standing in the center of the cave as soon as he went there.

I don't know when the seeds of this vermilion fruit fell, but now it occupies a tenth of the hole, and the dense red fruit hangs from the treetops, which is more festive than the red lantern of the New Year.

Yu Yao was pleasantly surprised to see the fruit of the tree, and just as she was about to go over, there was movement on the ground above her head.

Someone!
