Chapter 256: Underground Dark River

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Yuling asked, tilting her head.

Hearing this, Ye Sisi smiled mysteriously and whispered, "I have long heard that calendula chrysanthemum can not only be refined, but also a rare condiment, and the taste of food made with it is unforgettable, I have long wanted to try it, but I have never had the opportunity before." ”

After all, calendula chrysanthemum is precious, even if one is lucky, it will be taken to alchemy, how can it be used as a spice to cook food.

Jiang Yuling looked at Ye Sisi's salivating eyes, and couldn't help but recall the introduction of the medicinal properties of calendula she had seen.

Calendula chrysanthemum, the medicinal properties are violent, because its medicinal properties are extremely unstable, so when refining the elixir, it is necessary to add a mild medicine to balance, and the most important thing is that the taste of calendula chrysanthemum is spicy and abnormal.

Even with the addition of a variety of mild herbs to balance, the elixir refined from calendula still has a slight pungency, and one of them is the most spicy.

So......

Jiang Yuling watched Ye Sisi pick up the barbecue coated with marigold chrysanthemum juice and took a hard bite, but soon, the expression of enjoyment turned red and painful, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead.

"It's so spicy!!"

A burst of flame erupted from Ye Sisi's mouth with a spicy question.

Jiang Yuling handed over a pot of water in time, however, calendula chrysanthemum is not an ordinary chili pepper, and its spiciness, where is it so easy to solve.

Not surprisingly, Ye Sisi paid a heavy price for her gluttony, and her two lips were swollen high and turned into two sausages.

When Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue saw this scene, their lips pursed, and the expressions on their faces trembled slightly, as if they were trying their best to hide something.

In fact, it was exactly like this, Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue just glanced at Ye Sisi, and then tacitly looked away, looked at other places, looked at the sky, looked at the earth, but didn't look at Ye Sisi, for fear that they couldn't help laughing.

Luo Mian, by contrast, was unabashedly gloating. "You deserve it, you will be greedy."

Ye Sisi glared at Luo Mian viciously, her mouth and throat were hot and painful, she couldn't say a word at this time, if her eyes could kill, she would have cut Luo Mian with a thousand knives at this time.

In this case, it is definitely not possible to take pills, not to mention that there is no pill that is specifically designed to relieve spiciness.

Jiang Yuling searched and searched for the mustard flower, and finally turned out an ointment that could reduce swelling from a corner, at least the sausage mouth was solved first.

She had forgotten when the ointment was made, but the canola flower could keep it fresh, and what it looked like when it was put in and what it was when it was taken out, there was no such thing as an expiration of the ointment.

It turns out that the ginger and grapefruit ointment still works, although Ye Sisi still feels that the inside of her mouth and throat are hot, like a fire burning in it, but at least her lips are swollen.

Ye Sisi pointed to the ointment, then pointed to her mouth, and then looked at Jiang Yuling with an expectant expression.

"No, this ointment is applied externally, what's the matter with wiping it on your mouth." Jiang Yuling decisively refused.

"Woo woo woo no time."

Jiang Yuling listened to her whining for a long time, and then she understood what she said was that I promised not to eat it, "That's not good, I really can't stand it, drink more water, eat more fruits, or ask Qiu Yue to get you a piece of ice in your mouth." ”

Because of this incident, for the next period of time, Ye Sisi couldn't be honest, and because she couldn't beat Luo Mian, she simply vented all her anger on those mysterious beasts she met.

After another three days, Jiang Yuling and the others finally found their first Fire Spirit Crystal.

"It's not easy." Ye Sisi said.

After three days of cultivation, Ye Sisi has improved a lot, but she is still a little unfavorable when she speaks, but she is basically fine.

With the first good start, the luck of Jiang Yuling and the others seemed to be much better, and soon the three fire spirit crystals were collected, and now it has only been five days since the test.

At this point, half of the task was completed at once, and as long as they were able to survive the remaining five days safely, they would be able to pass the test without any problems.

But there is a saying, as long as people are idle, they can't help but want to do things, especially Jiang Yuling and the others are not peaceful.

At this time, Jiang Yuling suddenly closed his eyes, as if he was feeling something, and after a while, his eyes opened again.

"Yuzu, did you find anything?"

With Luo Mian's understanding of Jiang Yuling, it was obvious that he had discovered something in his actions just now.

As soon as his words fell, Qiu Yue and Ye Sisi also looked over, looking at her without blinking.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuling coughed lightly, "I found that there seems to be an underground river under our feet. ”

"Really, a few hundred meters away is a volcano ready to erupt at any time, and there is an underground river in this kind of place?" Qiu Yue said in disbelief.

"Yuzu, are you perceiving it wrong?" Luo Mian didn't believe that if there was really an underground river at their feet, there should be greenery around.

Only Ye Sisi blindly trusted Jiang Yuling, "Luo Mian, what nonsense are you talking about, how could Yuzu Ling be wrong." ”

Jiang Yuling shrugged his shoulders, "It's true or not, I'll know soon after looking for it, anyway, there are still five full days to go, and I'm idle." ”

Luo Mian and the three nodded, then look for it, anyway, they have nothing else to do now, after collecting the three living spirit crystals, the pressure on their bodies was instantly reduced by half.

In fact, Jiang Yuling was also skeptical about the existence of the underground dark river, not that she doubted her own judgment, because she could clearly feel that the moisture in the air was dozens of times richer than that in other places.

But as Luo Mian suspected, there was enough moisture in the air to support plants to take root and survive here, but as far as the eye could see, there were still huge red rocks around, and there was no green at all.

Moreover, Jiang Yuling can feel that the moisture in the air is actually very unstable, high and low, like breathing.

The group followed the path of the underground river and eventually found the entrance under a boulder on the outskirts of the lava mountains.

There were red stones all around, but this cave was surrounded by a circle of green, which looked particularly conspicuous from a distance, and it was difficult for them not to notice it.

"It's really an underground river."

Listening to the sound of gurgling water coming from inside the cave, although it was a little faint, you can't hear it at all if you don't listen carefully, but it is the real sound of running water.
