Shan Heyuan received a communication letter from Zhong Shuran and asked him to hurry over and introduce the captain of the hunting team to him.

When he saw it, it had been an hour and a half since the messenger arrived.

I don't know if Zhong Shuran is still at home?

Hurriedly running to the door of Zhong Shuran's house, Shan Heyuan knocked on the door with a nervous mood.

The door was open, and with a slight knock, it opened.

The sound of talking in the courtyard stopped instantly, and the two men who were talking turned to look at Shan Heyuan in unison.

Among these two people, one is his friend Zhong Shuran from the same village, and the other is the talisman he has never met at all, presumably the talisman that Zhong Shuran wants to introduce to him.

The man was at least two meters tall, resembling an iron tower, with a dark face and a thick beard.

What a big man!

Shan Heyuan's hand that wanted to say hello paused, and his expression became a little cramped.

Zhong Shuran beckoned him to come over: "Shan Heyuan, this is Zhao Changming, the captain of our hunting team, and he is also my classmate, and he has already achieved the Great Consummation of Qi Refining." ”

Shan Heyuan: "Zhao Daoyou." ”

Zhao Changming's sharp eyes stared at Shan Heyuan, and he seemed to be able to directly see through his internal organs.

Shan Heyuan's scalp was numb, and he subconsciously deviated his body to block the position of the dantian.

It seemed that after a long while, Zhao Changming greeted him in a deep voice: "Shan Daoyou." ”

Zhong Shuran patted Zhao Changming's arm and motioned for him to restrain his fierce appearance: "He Yuan is a very talented planter, isn't the loss of spiritual plants always high when we go out?" Take him along, and it might be better. ”

Zhao Changming nodded: "I have an eye relationship with a single daoyou, if a single daoyou wants to go, we can cooperate and try it once." ”

Shan Heyuan immediately said: "Trouble Zhao Daoyou, I'm free at any time." ”

Zhao Changming: "We will go to Zhangjia Mountain tomorrow, and we will come back in about three days, will you go?" ”

Shan Heyuan: "Go!" ”

Zhao Changming: "Single-way friendly and refreshing, in this case, we will buy all the supplies this afternoon, and gather here at Senior Brother Zhong early tomorrow morning, and we will set off." ”

Shan Heyuan has never officially gone out with the hunting team.

After Zhao Changming knew about his situation, he gave him a list, and explained some precautions to him with Zhong Shuran.

Shan Heyuan drank a belly of tea at Zhong Shuran's house, and went home dizzy when it was almost noon.

After entering his yard, Shan Heyuan found that his home was extremely quiet.

He looked around inside and outside the house, but there was no trace of Shen Duheng: "Strange, where did you go?" I wasn't at home, and I didn't leave a note. ”

After making sure that Shen Duheng was not at home, he was too lazy to cook, went into the kitchen, opened the air-conditioning cabinet, and planned to get something to eat.

He found two loaves and a small jar of pickled gourd, stacked them together, and planned to take them to the living room to eat.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a tall dark red figure standing at the door out of his eyes, and he was immediately startled: "Brother Shen?!" Where have you been in the morning? Have you eaten? ”

Shen Duheng looked at him: "No, aren't you still at home?" ”

Shan Heyuan explained: "I just went to Shuran's house, and he contacted his senior brother and said that their hunting team could take me to try it once. ”

Shen Duheng: "So fast?"

Shan Heyuan said excitedly: "Yes! Zhao Daoyou said that when I look at me, I have an eye - Zhong Shuran's senior brother is called Zhao Changming. ”

Shen Duheng stood at the door and looked at him: "Oh? ”

Shan Heyuan: "I decided to go with them to try, and in the afternoon I have to go to the town to buy hunting supplies." Zhao Daoyou: They suggested that I prepare personal utensils such as Bigu Dan, Healing Pill, and sleeping tents, and they will buy materials for public use. Are you going or not? ”

Shen Duheng raised his hand and threw something at him: "I won't go, you go to Zangling to watch and buy it." ”

"You're not going?" Shan Heyuan subconsciously caught the thing, and only to find that it was heavy and cold, "What is this?" ”

Shan Heyuan let go of his hand and looked at the brass-colored plain ring in his palm, feeling that it was very familiar, and he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.

Shen Duheng said lazily: "Storage ring, it's inconvenient to go out with a big bag and a small bag, so I bought a small storage ring for you." ”

It's actually a storage ring!

Shan Heyuan opened his mouth wide, and then his mouth was about to grin to the root of his ear: "Storage ring!" Brother Shen, you bought me a storage ring?! No, where did you get the spirit beads? ”

Shen Duheng: "Sword cultivation still lacks spirit beads?" ”

Shan Heyuan pinched the storage ring and looked at it again: "This is too precious!" ”

Shen Duheng: "When I borrow you, I will return the spirit beads after I have them." ”

Shan Heyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Thank you, Brother Shen!" When I earn the spirit beads, I will give you flowers! ”

Shen Duheng didn't take his words to heart at all, waved his hand, and turned back to the living room.

Shan Heyuan looked at the storage ring in his hand and shouted at his back: "Brother Shen, you wait a while, I'll cook two big dishes, and you can eat right away!" ”

Shan Heyuan stood in the kitchen.

The light in the kitchen is not very good, because it is a tiled house, even at noon, it is cool and dim.

But the brass-colored ring in his palm shone with a tiny glow, and it was completely impossible to ignore.

He pinched the ring and looked at it for a while, scooped water and washed his hands with cleaning cream, and then carefully placed the ring on the index finger of his right hand.

The ring is smooth and slender, and it looks good on his slender finger.

He admired it for a moment before touching the storage ring with his senses.

When the consciousness touches the storage ring, it looks like a wall.

Only then did he realize that the ring had not yet been recognized.

According to the common sense he had learned, most of the storage artifacts could be treated with blood and recognize the owner.

Shan Heyuan looked around, took off the kitchen knife on the shelf, cut a small cut on the back of his hand, squeezed out the blood and smeared it on the storage ring.

The storage ring absorbs blood and becomes smooth and shiny again.

Shan Heyuan probed again, and found a small space.

The space was about four meters wide, five meters long, and three meters high, and it looked gray under the detection of his divine sense.

This is a different dimension that is obviously different from reality, a bit similar to the dantian, but much larger than the dantian.

Shan Heyuan "stared" at this space without blinking, and stuffed the kitchen knife in his hand into it.

Kitchen knives are suspended in space.

The whole space is like a gravity-free environment, the kitchen knife will not move in it at all, and he can't feel the weight while wearing a storage ring.

Shan Heyuan used his divine sense to adjust the position of the kitchen knife and moved the kitchen knife to the corner.

The process of moving was smooth, and his consciousness was like an arm, as if it were his third hand.

After playing for a while, Shan Heyuan remembered that they hadn't eaten lunch yet.

He quickly took out the kitchen knife and turned out the lean meat that had been dried before for lunch.

At noon today, he was really moved, and specially made four dishes and one soup.

After lunch, Shan Heyuan went to the town to buy supplies.

He had too few spirit beads in his hand, so he didn't want to "hide the spirit", so he only went to the second-hand shop he frequented to buy some things that he had to bring.

Let's deal with it first, and then talk about it when we have spirit beads.

Going out hunting with the hunting team tomorrow, Shan Heyuan was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night, and when he got up, the dark circles under his eyes were about to fall to his mouth.

Rao is like this, he is still so excited, he doesn't count making breakfast early in the morning, and he repeatedly explained the things at home to Shen Duheng several times before going out to find Zhong Shuran.

With the storage ring, he didn't take anything, empty-handed, and went to find Zhong Shuran in high spirits.

Zhao Changming was already waiting at Zhong Shuran's house.

In addition to Zhao Changming, there is another team member named Li Jiamu.

Li Jiamu and Zhao Changming are both sword cultivators, and Zhong Shuran is a Fu cultivator, a part-time formation cultivator.

When they go out, they have no problem hunting, but they are weaker in gathering.

This is also the reason why Zhao Changming, as the captain, is willing to accept a planter, and their hunting process needs to be more efficient, so as to save costs and increase income.

Zhao Changming and the three of them, as classmates, often cooperated to go out hunting when they were still in the school, and they were very familiar with the situation nearby.

Shan Heyuan followed the middle of the team, the whole person was excited and nervous, and he looked like a novice.

After entering Zhangjia Mountain, the road gradually disappeared, and low-level spirit grass and small spirit beasts could be seen all around.

Zhao Changming explained, in principle, they don't want spirit grasses and spirit beasts that are lower than the third order of qi refining.

In the process of gathering and hunting, time and spiritual power will be wasted, and if you get too many low-level goods, you will not have enough energy to get high-level goods.

If the spirit grass is at their feet, or the spirit beast takes the initiative to bump into it, it will not take much time and energy.

As he walked, Shan Heyuan recognized a spirit grass on the side of the road, which should be a second-order jade void of qi refining.

This is a spiritual grass that does not dig white and does not dig.

He stopped the team, took a nail rake from the storage ring, dug and pried, and directly dug up the spirit grass.

The roots of the spirit grass dug up in this way will be broken more, and you need to take it back and raise it for a period of time to recover your vitality.

However, the speed of this digging method is very fast, it can be dug out in a few seconds, and it is very cost-effective, and they all use this excavation method for spirit grasses below the third order of qi refining.

The jade void scatter of the second order of qi refining is not of high value, and it cannot be treated in a jade box.

In order to maintain its vitality, Shan Heyuan specially dug up a ball of soil and pinched it at its roots, and then put it in the storage ring.

In this way, it should not be a problem for it to survive for two or three days.

Zhao Changming and the three of them were not planters, so they couldn't help, so they were on guard.

Li Jiamu: "The luck of the novice is good, Shan Daoyou has come all the way and dug up seventeen spirit grasses above the second order of qi refining, right?" ”

Zhong Shuran shook his head: "This is not a matter of luck, the planter has this strength." ”

Li Jiamu smiled: "It's not that I haven't seen other planters before, and they don't have as many spiritual grasses as single friends. ”

Zhong Shuran said proudly: "Is the person I introduced a person with mediocre talent? ”

Li Jiamu agreed: "Shan Daoyou's talent is indeed very good, and he works very neatly. ”

Shan Heyuan had already put the jade void into the storage ring, and was standing in the middle listening to them, with a very good attitude.

Zhao Changming also liked this new team member very much, and pressed the sword on his waist and said, "Since we have dug up the spirit grass, we will continue to set off." ”

Shan Heyuan saw Zhao Changming raising his feet to leave, and hurriedly stopped him: "Zhao Daoyou, wait, there should be two good-grade Wuding grasses in the northwest, I feel their spiritual power." ”

Zhao Changming glanced at him in surprise and took the lead to walk northwest: "Let's go over and have a look." ”

Under the command of Shan Heyuan, several people walked more than ten meters to the northwest, and sure enough, they saw two indefinite grasses, one of which was the seventh order of qi refining, and the other was of the ninth order of qi refining.

The value of the spirit grass of this grade is already relatively high, and it cannot be directly pried up with a nail rake, which will affect the selling price.

Zhao Changming and Li Jiamu had good physical strength, and each took a hoe and dug carefully.

Zhong Shuran and Shan Heyuan were on guard, and they also took a break.

Li Jiamu dug the spirit grass and chatted vigorously: "I'll just say that the luck of the single Taoist friend is good, you still don't believe it." ”

Zhong Shuran: "Believe in a fart, it's obviously strength!" If they were to be replaced by other novice planters, even if they put the spirit grass at their feet, they might not be able to find it. ”

Zhao Changming spoke: "Shan Daoyou is more sensitive to the spiritual power of the spirit grass than ordinary people? ”

Shan Heyuan admitted with a smile: "The professional skills of the planter are specialized. ”

Shan Heyuan didn't know how other planters were, but he was indeed very sensitive to the spiritual power of spiritual plants, especially those spiritual plants that he had put into the dantian, and from a distance, he could capture that little difference from the chaotic spiritual power.

However, this is his secret, so it is difficult to tell anyone other than Shen Duheng.

After a short time, they dug up two adventitious grasses and set off again.

The process of going out to hunt was very hard, they set off when the sun had just risen, and they did not rest much at noon, only drank some water, ate some Bigu pills, sat down in the shade of the trees for a while, and continued to walk deep into the mountains.

Every time you go out to hunt, you need to consume a batch of fixed materials, such as pills to prevent poisonous insects and snakes, talismans for vigilance, spirit wine to restore physical strength, etc., which cannot be stopped and stopped like playing.

They have to get to their predetermined destination within the planned time, otherwise there will be insufficient supplies and the trip will not be safe.

When Zhao Changming was making a plan, he didn't expect that Shan Heyuan, a third-order Qi refining planter, would be able to discover so many things, so the time left on the road was shorter.

Later, in order to get to the right camping spot, they had to speed up.

Therefore, the back section is particularly tiring.

Not to mention Shan Heyuan, a fledgling planter, even Zhong Shuran, a person who comes out to hunt all year round, is tired enough.

In the evening, they finally arrived at their destination, and Shan Heyuan and Zhong Shuran were almost tired.

As soon as Zhao Changming said that he was camping, the two of them didn't care about anything, so they just lay down on the slightly thick grass and rolled into a ball.

Zhao Changming and Li Jiamu didn't care about them, they only took swords to cut trees and grass and set up camps.

Zhong Shuran took out two small Hui Pills from the storage bracelet to recover his strength, and divided one from Shan Heyuan: "Tired, right?" ”

Shan Heyuan nodded weakly, he didn't even bother to take the water, he directly swallowed it and continued to lie down.

Zhong Shuran stroked his hair with his backhand: "I've never been so tired, you planters are really good, you will definitely make a lot of money this time." ”

Shan Heyuan: "Definitely can, I've counted, today we dug up thirty-seven spiritual grasses above the fifth order alone." ”

Zhong Shuran: "Yes, we'll make persistent efforts tomorrow." ”

Zhong Shuran didn't know if he was motivated by his income, so he struggled to get up after lying down for a while, and felt out the talisman to set up a protective array in this temporary camp.

After arranging the formation, he counted the remaining runes.

During the day, they used a lot of talismans, and Shan Heyuan looked at the talismans lined up on the grass by Zhong Shuran, feeling that the talismans they brought this time might not be enough for three days.

Zhao Changming and Li Jiamu were in the other corner of the camp to deal with the spirit beasts they had hit today.

There are very few spirit beasts in the Qi refining period, and if there is, they must be dug out in time and sealed in the jade box with a special technique to ensure that the spiritual power will not escape.

In addition, the fur of the spirit beast should be tanned in time, and the meat of the beast with a lot of spiritual power content also needs to be divided out and properly preserved.

As for those meats with relatively little spiritual power content or not so good, choose those with good taste and eat them, and throw away those that you really can't eat, so as not to squeeze the space of the storage artifact.

Seeing that everyone was working, Shan Heyuan was embarrassed to continue lying down, and also got up to clean up the spirit grass he had dug during the day.

The spirit grasses above the fifth order of qi refining were properly placed in the jade box.

The jade box is engraved with runes and inlaid with broken spirit stones, and the inside is cool, dry and rich in spiritual power, which can maintain the state of spirit grass to the greatest extent.

In the end, it can't be connected to the outside world, it's not a complete small world, and the spirit grass will inevitably wilt.

Shan Heyuan gave these spirit grasses a "fresh breeze and a slow breeze" to return the spirit grass to its best state, and then stored it.

The spirit grass in the jade box began to wilt, and the spirit grass wrapped in dirt and placed in the storage ring wilted even more.

Shan Heyuan guessed that the storage ring was the same as the dantian, and the alien space inside was not suitable for the survival of spirit grass, and they could only survive for a short period of time.

However, the spirit grass will release spiritual power in the dantian, and it will be in a state of accelerated consumption, and the survival time will be greatly shortened.

The spirit grass in the storage ring is simply stored, and it can last for a few more days.

It is also inevitable that the spirit grass put into the storage artifact will hurt the vitality, and it will have to be raised for a period of time to recover.

Shan Heyuan was thinking crankily while combing the wilted spiritual grass with spiritual power.

Zhao Changming and the others had already dealt with the spirit beast almost completely, and the cut spirit beast meat was marinated, and it was roasted on the bonfire, and after a while, it exuded a strong aroma.

Shan Heyuan was doing his work, and his stomach began to growl.

Li Jiamu took a few skewers of beast meat that had been roasted first, half for Zhong Shuran, and half for Shan Heyuan: "I've worked hard today, come, taste this fresh spirit beast meat, and see if it suits the taste." ”

Shan Heyuan raised his head and smiled: "Everyone works the same. ”

Li Jiamu: "Usually we don't really have to work so hard, the main thing is that we don't have so much gain, and we don't have the place to work hard if we want to." ”

Zhong Shuran sat on the side with his hands and feet open, and took a big bite on the barbecue: "He Yuan is really the most powerful planter I have ever seen. ”

Li Jiamu: "It's also the most powerful grower I've ever met, if only we had cooperated earlier." ”

Shan Heyuan: "Li Daoyou, I am only at the third order of qi refining, and I guess it won't be early." ”

Li Jiamu smiled: "That's right." There was no way before, but more cooperation in the future? ”

Shan Heyuan nodded: "As long as you don't dislike it." ”
