Chapter 9 Pear Water Stream
After hearing this crisp and pleasant voice, Zhou Huan turned his head to look at the sound. I saw a young girl standing not far behind.
The girl was dressed in a goose-yellow gown, embroidered with moire on the placket, and tied with this lilac belt around her waist, which lined her waist and slender body. And the girl has a good face, skin is better than snow, there is a shallow smile on her face, and she has a pair of big eyes that make people want to take a few more looks.
"Girl?" Zhou Huan was stunned for a moment, looking at the girl with some doubts, he didn't know how the girl in front of him knew that the two of them were going to Lishuijian.
"Two fellow Daoists, but I wonder why I know where you are going?" The girl approached, and then said with a smile, "When you asked the uncle, I happened to pass by, and I heard it. ”
"I see, girl, why do you want to go there, the Taoist friend said before, there are many demon beasts near the pear water stream." Zhou Huan said faintly refused.
"This girl also has the strength of the third layer of qi refining, and she is not afraid of some demon beasts, if she can go with two Taoist friends, the risk is not much smaller, isn't it?"
Zhou Huan looked at the girl again, feeling that she shouldn't be very old, and then asked: "The girl doesn't look very old, doesn't she have the support of elders when she goes out?" ”
"Uh, I slipped out on my own, what about you?"
The girl said a little shyly.
"The two of us just came out to see for a long time, and we can be considered to have some self-preservation."
"I'm the same, don't worry, this girl is just curious to take a look."
"Okay, don't be too far away when the girl arrives, so that you can take care of each other." Zhou Huan and the others couldn't help the girl's soft grinding and hard foaming, so they had to agree. "Haven't asked the girl's name yet?"
"Liu Ruling. You guys? ”
"Zhou Huan." "Founder." After informing each other of their names, the three of them walked together towards the Lishui Stream in the northwest direction.
While the three of them were talking, they didn't notice a tall figure in the distance of Fang City, looking at them silently.
Walking all the way to Lishuijian, Liu Ruling and Zhou Huan talked and laughed on the way, looking around from time to time, Zhou Huan didn't feel like she was going to kill demon beasts, but after thinking about it, since she didn't say it, Zhou Huan was not convenient to ask more.
After more than an hour, the three of them arrived at Lishui Stream, probably because it was still early, and there were no other monks around.
The mountain stream in front of you has a crystal clear stream, trickling endlessly. Above the mountain stream is a waterfall from which the water hangs down and gathers to form a pool below, in which the water flows along the stream into the distance. The aura between the mountain streams is very abundant, the trees are tall and flourishing, and the call of birds can be heard not far away.
"Now let's look for the demon beasts separately, and gather here when Shen Shi comes." Zhou Huan glanced at the foreground and said, then looked at Liu Ruling beside him, "If Liu Daoyou encounters a critical situation, remember not to run faster." ”
"Okay, you go find the demon beast, and I'll go walk around." Liu Ruling replied happily, but she didn't look at Zhou Huan and the others at this time, but looked around between the mountains and forests.
"Okay." Zhou Huan smiled a little helplessly, then winked at Fang Zheng and said, "Then, Brother Fang, how about you and I go our separate ways to find demon beasts?" ”
"Brother Zhou, then I'll go over there." Fang Zheng also said to Zhou Huan with some cooperation, and then looked for the direction he was pointing.
After the three separated, Zhou Huan began to walk north, looking for the first-order demon beasts in this place to collect materials in exchange for spirit stones.
After a stick of incense, Zhou Huan found a few old friends. Scattered in front of Zhou Huan were several iron-eating rats, different from those in the hematite area, these iron-eating rats were pale cyan, probably the ore here was different, but Zhou Huan didn't delve into it.
Zhou Huan took out the previously spare red iron sword from the storage bag, held it in his right hand, attached the wood attribute aura to the sword body, and slashed forward. After a while, a few iron-devouring rats became the rat skins that Zhou Huan was carrying in his hands and put them in the storage bag.
Not long after leaving, a different first-order demon beast appeared in front of Zhou Huan's eyes, the green songbird. The blue songbird is a small bird monster with a snow-white body, two pale red masses on the sides of its cheeks, and a cyan feather on the top of its head, which is very low aggressive but extremely fast.
The monks mostly collect the green feathers on their heads to weave speed magic weapons, and the legend says that the green songbird is the descendant of the legendary true spirit Qingluan in the human world, but the truth is unknown, after all, this demon beast is so weak that it cannot be connected with the legendary true spirit.
Zhou Huan quietly walked around from behind the green songbird, and grabbed the bird in his hand with a quick grasp of it. The green songbird was still chirping, and the green feather above its head was taken into Zhou Huan's hand.
The green songbird will not be too damaged after losing its green feathers, but the speed will slow down, just wait for the green feathers to grow again, Zhou Huan let go of the little bird and let it fly away.
Later, Zhou Huan found many green songbirds, some of which did not have green feathers on their heads, and it seemed that they were taken away by other monks before, but Zhou Huan still collected dozens of green feathers.
As time gradually passed, Zhou Huan noticed that several purple-faced monkeys appeared in the mountains and forests not far away, and his heart moved, and he began to think in place.
The purple-faced monkey has gray hair, purple cheeks, and great strength, but its body is a little bulky, and it is usually a first-order demon beast, but the purple-faced monkey king among them is a second-order and even higher level demon beast. There are not many materials worth collecting, but there are still many monks looking for them.
The reason for this is that most monkey monsters will brew a kind of spirit wine called monkey wine, which is mainly made from various spirit fruits, and the monk has the effect of improving mana cultivation after drinking. However, monkey wine is often found in the cave nest where the monkey king is located in the monkey group, and it is very difficult to obtain.
Zhou Huan gritted his teeth, ready to take a risk, if he could get the monkey wine, his cultivation would be able to go to a higher level and speed up a lot of time.
Zhou Huan crouched down and slowly moved to the direction where the monkeys were, and after a while, he found a small cave in front of him, thinking that this might be where the monkey wine was. Then Zhou Huan tiptoed slowly close to the entrance of the cave. With bursts of clear and sweet smell, Zhou Huan took a few sips, and then felt that the true qi in his body was slightly faster, and he knew that it was monkey wine inside.
Just wanted to go in and get some monkey wine out, only to hear a long howl, the purple-faced monkeys around him found him, and Zhou Huan secretly said in his heart that it was not good. Not far away, I saw a huge purple-faced monkey running towards the cave with several monkeys. Zhou Huan looked at the Monkey King who was getting closer, glanced at the cave reluctantly, and then turned his head and ran.
"Huhuhu, the maze of secular martial arts still has some effect." Zhou Huanyun took a lost step, ran wildly for several miles, and finally got rid of the pursuit of the monkeys.
Sitting under a big tree to rest, Zhou Huan said to himself: "This monkey king seems to have at least the power of the second-order peak, but fortunately he runs slowly. It seems that there is a reason why the monkey wine was not snatched away by the other monks. Silently noting the location of this place in his heart, Zhou Huan stood up and walked back.
On the way, Zhou Huan also encountered some other first-order demon beasts, such as the web wind spider and the green python, all of which turned them into materials in the storage bag. Seeing that it was almost time to arrive, Zhou Huan returned to the vicinity of the waterhole where he had just set off.
"Zhou Daoyou, you came back earlier than me." Liu Ruling said, walked over from a distance, and judging from her smiling face, the harvest was good.
"Liu Daoyou said with a smile, I just arrived." Zhou Huan also responded with a smile.
Then the two of them chatted with each other.
After a while, Fang Zheng also arrived at the waterhole, only to see many holes in his clothes, thinking that he had encountered some danger.
"Brother Fang, what danger have you encountered?" Zhou Huan asked with some concern, and Liu Ruling on the side also looked over.
"It's okay, a little bit of a little injury." Fang was cleaning up the wounds on his body by the waterhole.
"That's fine, let's take a break, and we'll go back to Fang City."
After that, the three of them hurried back to the market before the night came.
"Two Taoist friends, see you next time." After Liu Ruling finished speaking, she left in the distance.
Zhou Huan and the others replied to take care, and then returned to the inn, rested in their respective guest rooms, and prepared to discuss other things tomorrow.
