Chapter 262: Furry Spirit Beast
The huge snake gall of the Heavenly Spirit Snake released an unbearable fishy smell the moment it landed.
Zhao Qi frowned, and his eyes revealed a deep fear of this snake gall.
He knew very well that the snake gall of this Heavenly Spirit Snake contained extremely poisonous, and even a cultivator could not take it rashly.
Yi Wuxiao held a trident in his hand and was about to step forward to divide the snake gallbladder into three, but was stopped by a gesture from Zhao Qi.
"Wait!" Zhao Qi's voice revealed an unquestionable majesty, "This snake gall is poisonous, if you cut it open now, the toxin will immediately spread into the air, and all three of us will be poisoned." ”
Yi Wuxiao was stunned for a moment, then put down the trident in his hand and looked at Zhao Qi with some puzzlement.
He has always been known for his bravery, but at this moment, in front of Zhao Qi, he looks like an obedient primary school student. Zhao Qi's words, he is always unconditionally convinced.
Zhao Qi didn't explain much, he quickly took off a ring from his finger and carefully put the snake gall into it.
Na Ring shimmered slightly, as if she was also nervous about this poisonous thing.
"After returning to Tianyang Gate, I will find a way to refine this Heavenly Spirit Snake Gall." Zhao Qi put the ring back on his finger and said with a solemn expression, "After the refining is successful, we will distribute it again." Lan Lingling, what do you think? ”
Lan Lingling nodded, she was full of confidence in Zhao Qi. In her opinion, Zhao Qi is always able to turn danger into disaster and find a solution to the problem.
Zhao Qi took out a sharp dagger from the ring and began to cut the snake skin of the Heavenly Spirit Snake.
The snakeskin was extremely tough, but in Zhao Qi's hands, it was easily cut like a cloth.
Yi Wuxiao and Lan Lingling were both watching quietly from the sidelines, they knew that this snake skin was also a rare treasure.
However, just as Zhao Qi was concentrating on cutting the snakeskin, Yi Wuxiao's expression suddenly changed, and he turned his head sharply to look into the distance, with a solemn look on his face.
"Zhao Qi, hurry up! Snake Styx: They may be coming back soon! ”
Zhao Qi's movements in his hand paused, he looked up at Yi Wuxiao, and his face also showed a solemn look.
He knew that time was running out and they had to get out of here as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the snake and the others come back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the three of them to get out.
Thinking of this, Zhao Qi sped up the movements in his hand and quickly finished cutting the snakeskin. He also put the snake skin into the ring, then stood up and said to Yi Wuxiao and Lan Lingling, "Let's go!" ”
The trio quickly left the scene and disappeared into the dense jungle.
What they didn't know was that not long after they left, Snake Ming and the others returned here in a menacing manner.
The entire jungle seemed to have become silent because of this killing intent.
At a glance, the snake saw the remaining traces on the ground and the fishy smell in the air, and his face instantly turned iron-blue.
"It's . The snake gall of the Celestial Spirit Snake? He looked down at the puddle of viscous liquid on the ground, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Blacktail and Rattletail also followed, looking at the corpse of the Heavenly Spirit Snake on the ground, both of them showing expressions of disbelief. The snakeskin was neatly cut and taken away, leaving them with no benefit.
"Who the hell did this?" Blacktail asked angrily. His voice echoed through the jungle, and it was particularly harsh.
Snake Ming said with a confident face: "It must have been Zhao Qi and them who did it!" Who else has such courage and ability besides them? ”
Ringtail didn't speak, he crouched down to carefully observe the footprints on the ground.
These are the footprints of three people, one of whom is still a little small.
He pointed in one direction and said, "They're going that way, we're chasing!" ”
The three of them immediately chased forward. The snake was the fastest, and he almost sped through the jungle. Blacktail and Rattytail followed, knowing who they were targeting this time, and knowing that they must not let each other escape.
However, Zhao Qi and others are not idle. They had been walking through the jungle for a long time, and they were already familiar with the terrain and routes.
They deliberately made some detours in an attempt to confuse the snake and the others to track.
After chasing for a while, Snake Ming and the others found that there was a fork in the road ahead. They stopped, hesitating for a moment not knowing which way to go.
"Separate chase!" The snake said decisively, "Blacktail, you chase to the left; Rattle the tail and chase it to the right. I'm in the middle, and no matter which way they run, they can't escape the palm of our hand! ”
Blacktail and Rattletail nodded in understanding, and then chased after each other to the left and right. The snake stood in the middle of the intersection waiting for their news.
However, Zhao Qi and the others did not flee as the snake imagined, they found a hidden place to hide, and prepared to ambush the pursuing enemy.
Yi Wuxiao hid behind a big tree with a trident in hand, Lan Lingling hid in a bush, and Zhao Qi quietly climbed a tall tree, condescendingly observing the situation around him.
After a while, Blacktail came running out of breath. He looked around for the traces of Zhao Qi and the others, but did not find any clues.
Just as he was about to continue chasing, he suddenly felt a weakness under his feet, as if he had stepped on some trap.
He secretly screamed in his heart, and just wanted to jump up and dodge, but it was too late. There was only a "whoosh" sound, and a thick vine bounced up from the ground, binding the black tail tightly.
"Ahh Blacktail let out a scream, struggling to break free from the vines. However, the vine seemed to be alive, and the more it became tighter, so that he could not move at all.
At this moment, Yi Wuxiao jumped out from behind the tree, holding a trident and looking at Heiwei coldly.
"Don't struggle, you've been caught by us." While he spoke, he didn't forget to joke: "It seems that your luck is not very good, and you were the first to be hit." ”
Heiwei looked at Yi Wuxiao in shock and anger, and wanted to speak but found that he had been strangled by vines and couldn't speak.
He could only watch as Yi Wuxiao tied herself to a big tree and walked away.
At the same time, Rattle Tail suffered a similar situation. He was trapped by a trap laid by Lan Lingling, and he was also tied to a big tree.
He roared angrily, wanting to break free and chase after Zhao Qi and the others. However, no matter how much he struggled, he could only watch his opponent flee from his eyes.
The snake waited for a while, but did not wait for news of the black tail and rattletail, and his heart began to feel a little uneasy.
He returned along the same path to check the situation, but found that he had been toyed with by Zhao Qi and others.
He understood everything when he saw the two men tied to the tree, Black Tail and Rattletail, and their angry and helpless eyes.
"Damn!" The snake gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you tease me like this!" I'm going to make you pay! ”
However, at this moment, he was helpless, because Zhao Qi and the others had already disappeared without a trace.
In a fit of rage, he cut off the vines tied to the black tail and rattletail to free them, and the three of them left the jungle in disgrace.
And Zhao Qi and the others were already watching all this from a distance, and let out a victorious laugh.
"Haha! Look at their mess! Yi Wuxiao laughed and said, "This time it's really relieving!" ”
Lan Lingling also showed a happy smile and said, "Thanks to Zhao Qi's ingenuity, we can successfully get rid of them. ”
At this moment, Zhao Qi and the three of them have stayed away from the dangerous place. They shuttled through the jungle for a long time, and it was only after they were sure that the snake and the others had not caught up with them that they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Zhao Qi, you were really amazing just now!" Yi Wuxiao patted Zhao Qi's shoulder and exclaimed, "Not only do you know that snake gall is poisonous, but you can also think of using a ring to contain it." I really admire it! ”
Zhao Qi smiled and did not speak. He knew that it was not just because of his wisdom and courage that he was able to successfully escape the pursuit of Snake Ming and the others this time.
What's more, the trust and cooperation between the three of them.
Lan Lingling also walked over, she looked at Zhao Qi and Yi Wuxiao, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
"We should be safe now. However, Zhao Qi, can you really find a way to refine the Heavenly Spirit Snake Gall? ”
Zhao Qi nodded, a confident smile on his face.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way. After the refining is successful, we will distribute the snake gall and snake skin together. ”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and the joy and expectation in their hearts were indescribable. They knew that although they experienced thrills and dangers this time, they also gained rare treasures and deeper friendships. That's enough for them.
In the Heavenly Demon Wasteland, in addition to those crazy demon beasts, there were indeed many precious spirit grasses and ores hidden, which were all treasures that cultivators coveted.
However, finding their traces in this vast wasteland is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is even more difficult.
At this moment, Lan Lingling was lighting a wonderful incense in his hand.
The incense was green all over, exuding a faint fragrance, which gradually spread with the light breeze.
Yi Wuxiao stood aside, looking at the incense curiously, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was a little puzzled.
"Lan Lingling, isn't the smell of your aromatherapy too strong? What if they attract snakes? ”
Yi Wuxiao said with some concern. After all, in this dangerous Heavenly Demon Wasteland, any slightest negligence could lead to fatal consequences.
However, Zhao Qi seemed quite calm. He smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "It's okay." Although the smell of this aroma is strong, it has a limited spread and will not easily attract enemies. ”
When Yi Wuxiao heard this, he was still a little skeptical. He turned his head to look at Zhao Qi and asked suspiciously, "What is the effect of this aromatherapy?" Why are we igniting it here? ”
Zhao Qi smiled slightly and explained: "This kind of fragrance is called 'Seeking Spirit Incense', and it is refined from more than a dozen high-grade spirit herbs. The prices on the market are quite high, and they are often only bought by those who are looking for treasure. After lighting this incense, it can replace us cultivators to find nearby spiritual herbs, saving us a lot of time and energy. ”
Yi Wuxiao listened to Zhao Qi's explanation, and then suddenly realized.
He looked up at the dense woods in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: In this Heavenly Demon Wasteland, it is indeed difficult to find a top-grade or even a superb spirit grass with the naked eye. Fortunately, there was this "Soul Seeking Incense" in Lan Lingling's hand, otherwise they would probably have to run around like headless flies.
Thinking of this, Yi Wuxiao couldn't help but admire Lan Lingling's carefulness and thoughtfulness.
He turned his head to look at Lan Lingling and said with a smile, "Lan Lingling, you have really made a great contribution this time. When I find the spirit grass, I must thank you very much. ”
When Lan Lingling heard this, he just smiled faintly and didn't speak.
She knew very well that in this Heavenly Demon Wasteland, which was full of unknowns and dangers, any little help could become a lifesaver.
And all of this she did was just to make it safer and smoother for everyone to complete their tasks.
As time passed, the smell of "Lingxiang" became more and more intense. The three of them followed the guidance of the aroma and shuttled through the woods for a long time, and finally came to an open area.
The terrain here is high and surrounded by all kinds of exotic flowers and plants.
Those spirit grasses shimmered in the sunlight, exuding bursts of refreshing fragrance.
Yi Wuxiao and Zhao Qi looked at the spiritual grass garden in front of them, and their eyes showed a look of surprise. They knew they were in the right place.
However, just as they were about to start picking the spirit grass, they suddenly heard a rustling sound.
The three of them immediately looked up vigilantly, and saw that something seemed to be moving rapidly in the surrounding woods.
"Not good! A monster is approaching! Zhao Qi's expression froze, and he said in a low voice, "Everyone be careful!" ”
When Yi Wuxiao and Lan Lingling heard this, they also immediately entered the battle state.
The three of them stood back to back, vigilantly observing the movements around them.
The sounds of rustling were getting closer and closer, and soon they were coming to their side. However, when the three of them saw the true face of those so-called "demon beasts", they couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw that those "demon beasts" turned out to be a group of cute little beasts! They have snow-white hair, round eyes, and a fluffy tail as cute as a cotton ball.
They didn't seem to be afraid of people, but curiously circled and sniffed around the trio.
One of the little beasts also boldly jumped onto Lan Lingling's shoulder, rubbing her cheek affectionately.
"This ......," Yi Wuxiao said with a little cry and laughter as she looked at the group of cute little beasts in front of her, "These guys don't seem to be very fierce." ”
Zhao Qi couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that we misunderstood them." These little beasts should be the guardians living in this spiritual grass garden. They didn't mean anything, they just wondered why we were here. ”
Lan Lingling gently stroked the soft fur of the little beast on her shoulder, and said with a smile.
"Since they don't have malicious intent, then we don't have to worry. We can pick the spirit grass and play with these little ones at the same time. ”
