Chapter 19 Causes of the Accident

Night.

Travel diary, simulated in the formation of time and space.

The fluffy red-haired beast crouched in the grass, its eyes alert, looking out over the volcano with black smoke in the distance.

The two white spots above its eyes like eyebrows twitch slightly, slowly spitting out its small tongue, using the "sensory organs" of the tongue to sense whether there is a hostile breath.

After making sure it was safe, the little one suddenly disappeared from the grass.

When it reappeared, the red panda with a food bag tied to its back was already wagging its fluffy tail and walking on the path to the volcano.

The volcanic trail is narrow, difficult to climb, and there are faint charcoal marks left behind by charring.

Luo Xiaojiu cautiously moved forward, and suddenly stood up alertly, his beard trembled slightly, and he stared at the "uninvited guest" in front of him with a slight ferocity.

It was a small lizard, bubbling magma-red all over, 'hissing' and spitting out flame-laden letters

Awaken a level 10 creature, a volcanic lizard.

A common pet beast in the volcanic environment, the evolved form is the "Fire Lizard" of the 'Lower Commander' Race Level, and is the pet beast favored by many fire trainers.

As soon as they met, the volcanic lizard opened its big mouth and spewed out a blazing fireball, flying towards Luo Xiaojiu head-on.

Intermediate move, "Fire Bomb".

Xiao Jiu's body was vigorously dodging, and the fireball smashed to the side, splashing a large number of sparks.

"Huh!" Xiao Jiu saw that the other party's strength was good, so he decisively unpacked his bags behind his back and took out a can.

The volcano lizard was stunned for a moment, looking at the other party's movements in confusion.

But I saw the nine-section wolf unscrew the cap of the bottle, throw it aside, and raise his head to drink the canned Buddha peach.

Immediately, the nine-section wolf was like a popeye eating canned spinach, his little round face puffed out, his feet stood up, his eyes were cold, and his palms were condensed with majestic white mangs!

The flames on the volcanic lizard were obviously a little weaker, and its eyes were glazed, as if it was saying something.

You're obviously drugged!

Rumble!!

The volcanic lizard was directly smashed into the air by the giant palm.

Behind him, he revealed the strange plant he was guarding.

The rhizomes and leaves of this plant are reddish-brown, with bright red, pointy fruits that exude an abundance of fire energy.

"Huh~" Xiao Jiu approached the red-colored plant, curiously picked a fruit, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Gradually, Xiao Jiu's small round face began to turn red, and he opened his mouth 'wow' and spat out a ball of flames.

"Little Pepper: Secondary Resource. The spicy taste of chili peppers grown on sunny hillsides and in places with abundant fire energy has the effect of promoting the power of fire."

It's spicy, but it seems to be a little fragrant!

Xiao Jiu sucked his saliva and stuffed the string of red peppers into the bag.

It feels like it's edible...... Let's bring it back to the master first.

As we continue deeper into the volcano, the surface temperature gets higher and higher, and it gradually starts to burn my feet. Xiao Jiu's plush tail is slightly shiny, using fire energy to dissolve the high temperature.

And near the crater, there was a group of fire lizards that were significantly larger, many of which already had low-level commander-level strength.

Fortunately, Xiao Jiu's strength was low, his breath was weak, and he carefully hid his figure, hiding next to a piece of volcanic rock, and through the cracks, he secretly looked inside the volcano.

At this time, a spicy but refreshing peculiar fragrance wafted into the tip of its nose, exuding an incomparably mellow spicy taste.

Just smelling this smell, Xiao Jiu was spicy and saliva.

The nine-section wolf haunted his tongue and lay on his stomach in the crater, looking down to see a behemoth.

It was a long-tailed lizard covered in flames, crouched on all fours on the black land, its back emitting a thick white smoke from the heat of steam.

Around it, bright red magma gushes.

In the midst of the bubbling magma, a beautiful plant covered with red peppers grows and sways slightly.

The rhizomes are fresh and green, as if they can drip water; The emerald green leaves rolled up slightly, and a drop of magma followed the leaves and fell into the churning sea of fire; The pointed fruit is red and bright, like a red-hot piece of iron, and it is constantly shining.

There were about a dozen peppers, and strangely enough, one of them was bitten.

The strange fragrance that Xiao Jiu smelled just now was emanating from the bitten pepper.

At this time, this monarch-level creature slowly raised its head, opened its mouth of churning flames, its eyes were red and hideous, and it silently confronted Xiao Jiu.

"Huh!" Xiao Jiu was taken aback.

The Flame King Lizard's royal power struck, and he was not qualified to fight against it at all, and Xiao Jiu's journey was forced to be interrupted.

【End of this tour】

【Your Nine-Section Wolf Brings Back: A Small Amount of Growth Experience, Small Pepper*2】

……

The sky was bright.

Luo He rubbed his head, woke up from the bed, recalled the fragments in his mind, and frowned slightly.

I was like, I had a strange dream.

In my dream, I experienced this journey through Xiao Jiu's first-hand perspective, just like watching an immersive movie.

Whether it is the details of the dream or the key information, I remember it very clearly.

Luo He secretly wondered: "This may be...... It's one of my natural abilities. ”

The same "talent" of a trainer can develop different abilities.

Therefore, even if two trainers have the same talent, ability, and strength, they may be very different.

In Luo He's opinion, the reason why he had this kind of dream was because he was very interested in this trip before going to bed.

It is precisely because of his obsession with the Xuanwu Volcano that this ability takes effect and substitutes Xiao Jiu's first perspective.

Luo He said: "From this point of view, [Travel Diary] currently has three abilities. ”

"The first is 'Collection', which allows you to bring into life the props and moves obtained in simulated time and space."

"The second type is "precognitive dreams", which can obtain clues about the future in advance through dreams.

"And then there's this third one, the first perspective of Xiao Jiu."

Luo He named this third ability "Dreaming", which comes from the story of 'Zhuang Zhou fell into a dream and turned into a butterfly'.

After summarizing your natural abilities.

Luo He's attention turned back to that dream again.

"The lizard I saw in my dream, which was full of fire, should be the Flame King Lizard."

Luo He pondered: "And the plant it guards, it seems, is a chili pepper. ”

Peppers grown out of magma?

Luo He couldn't help but feel extremely excited.

This chili pepper is of the highest quality, and judging by its aroma and color, it is an excellent ingredient.

It grows in the depths of volcanoes and can withstand the high temperature of magma, and the fire energy contained in it can be called furious.

I don't know, the spiciness will be hundreds of times that of small peppers!

Wait a minute.

Luo He's mind flashed through his mind, and he remembered the red pepper that was bitten by the Flame King Lizard in his dream, and his face gradually became strange.

Could it be that the "magma pepper" of amazing quality happened to ripen recently.

The Flame King Lizard only took a bite of the chili pepper, and it was so spicy that it breathed fire and smoke, causing volcanic activity to stop.

This triggered the beast tide incident in the Yunling Mountain Range?

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

And, the possibilities are huge!

"That's how it works."

Luo He touched his chin with his hand, and his expression was complicated:

"The cause of the accident in which I died was actually a chili pepper?!"

What a cheat!

Luo He took a deep breath, held back his strong desire to complain, and muttered:

"It's just speculation after all."

"But the pepper that grows in the magma is really tempting."

Luo He is a chef who has mastered the essence of ingredients.

Even if it is a magical ingredient from another world, he has the confidence to cook it into a dish.

Therefore, this pepper plant completely aroused his idea of collecting ingredients.

It's just that as soon as the thought caught fire, it was calmly extinguished by Luo He.

"Xiao Jiu and I alone have no qualifications to covet that string of chili peppers at all."

Luo He said secretly: "It's too dangerous to snatch food from the Flame King Lizard, so don't make this calculation." ”

Unless......

Seeking help from outsiders is the slightest possibility of obtaining ingredients.

Luo He shook his head.

Forget it, it's still too reluctant.

I've never dreamed of that pepper plant!

"Little pepper, let's be a small pepper."

Luo He took out the second-level "Little Pepper" brought back by Xiao Jiu, compared it with the "Dream Love Pepper", and muttered:

"A small chili pepper can also be very delicious."

"Huh~" Xiao Jiu looked at Xiao Shanjiao, his expression was hesitant and wanted to eat.

Luo He understands this kind of psychology of 'being afraid of spicy and wanting to eat spicy', and said with a smile:

"I will make it spicy, mainly fragrant, spicy to enhance the fragrance......"

"Little Pepper, rich in fire-based energy, can be used to train your fire-based moves."

Luo He swore and said, "Let's try to rely on spicy food and learn that mid-level move "Fire Bomb"!" ”

Xiao Jiu blinked his eyes, a little skeptical, but in line with his belief that "the master's cooking is the most delicious in the world", he nodded his little head seriously.

Whoa.

At this time, Luo He's work walkie-talkie made a movement.

Due to the high price of mobile phones, the penetration rate of smart phones is less, and most of Cangcheng uses walkie-talkies.

"Hey, Luo He, can you hear me?"

On the intercom, a slightly noisy voice came out.

"Yes, Brother Qiang." Luo He said: "What's wrong?" ”

"That's right, our task of drawing a map is complete! It has been handed in, and it has been clearly approved by the leadership! ”

Zhao Daqiang's voice was full of obvious joy: "There will be a bonus in two days, thanks to you for doing it beautifully!" ”

"This matter mainly depends on everyone's efforts." Luo He said with a smile.

"Hahaha, let's not talk about it yet, you hurry up to the forest ranger compound, take Xiao Jiu, and everyone have a meal together!"

Eating together means that the workers set up a table in the open air in the forest ranger compound, and each person cooks one or two good dishes, which can be served.

"I'll come now."

"Wait for you, wait for you!"

Hang up.

Luo He glanced at the red panda who was a little confused, and said happily:

"Let's go, Xiao Jiu, I'll take you to the banquet, and then I'll show you my hands in person!"
