Chapter 46: Entering the Spirit Mountain
Jin Ling was slightly disappointed, but this kind of thing is not reluctant, so he looked around at everyone and asked, "Who else doesn't want to go?" It's still too late to quit. ”
A few more people retreated, all of them were those junior immortals. Even Chen Feng retreated. They do have their reasons, the immortal power is low, the equipment is average, the immortal skills are not refined, and even the most basic "immortal power base" has not been cultivated much. The strength at this stage, to kill the Warcraft, even the lowest-level Warcraft, is also dangerous and abnormal.
Now, it is only Shanran, Zhao Peng, Yang Xuan, Yang Lisheng and Yang Lixuan who agree with Jin Ling's proposition.
Jin Ling understood very well those few people who didn't go. He didn't force it, and agreed that they would stay in the camp for now. However, they were still a little worried, afraid that they and those children would be bullied by Feng Yuelan and others in the camp, so Zhao Peng and Sun Yuan were also left behind to take care of.
Zhao Peng stayed because he was the deputy village master of Xian Village, and Feng Yuelan had to give him some face in some things. Moreover, he is able to command the service team well. And Sun Yuan stayed, firstly, because he had poor combat ability against the enemy, and secondly, he needed to continue to manage the money and materials of the camp, as well as intelligence.
One of the two is in charge of people and the other is in charge of money, and they can effectively coerce Feng Yuelan to do wrong.
After all, the camp changes hands temporarily. He believed that in the future, after Feng Yuandao knew about this, he would definitely return it to Zhao.
Zhao Peng was not worried about Jin Ling, "You can only enter the Lingshan Deep Forest with just four of you?"
Jin Ling snorted, "Don't worry." We're not the ones who suffer! King Kong Demon Ape, and that Ye Xiao, haven't they all fought with me? Which one has the advantage? Didn't you yourself see my skills in Juying Building. Invincible at the same level, hey, you think it's blown out?"
Zhao Peng thought about it too. This kid's comprehension of martial arts and basic immortal skills is completely beyond that of his peers, and he belongs to the kind of outstanding category. Moreover, his brain is extremely smart and flexible, and his ability is unparalleled, as long as he does not go deep into the deep forests of Lingshan, he should not encounter any danger to his life.
After handing over the affairs of the camp, Jin Ling took Shan Ran and the other four people to leave the camp and go to the nearest guard point. They only took the detailed map and the two tents that they had painstakingly collected, and folded them all and placed them in Shan Ran's green jade space bracelet.
The horses were not strapped. Jin Ling knew that in the forest, the smell of horses would attract the peeps of many more powerful demonic beasts.
The group walked along the path on the outskirts of the forest and slowly advanced towards the warning point. Yang Lixuan held two giant axes to explore the way in front, and Yang Lisheng held a bow and arrow behind him. Two ladies, Yang Xuan and Shan Ran, are in the center. Jin Ling took the beans to press the formation at the end of the team.
Jin Ling learned this when he was working as a hired hand for the demon hunting team, the demonic beasts in the forest are very cunning, they often do not attack the human team head-on, but like to suddenly come out from behind, catching people off guard. Therefore, when marching through the forest, the rear of the team must have stronger defenses than the front.
Beans have a particularly sensitive sense of smell and can detect danger in advance, providing early warning time for the team.
"It's really breathtaking to think about it, Ling Zi. Yang Lixuan muttered dissatisfiedly, he had been depressed all the way, "We worked hard to collect intelligence, used Shan Ran's relationship to requisition this camp, and then spent so much time, effort, and money to prepare it, but as a result, he Feng Yuelan said a few words with empty teeth, and this camp became hers!"
"Otherwise, let's stop going to Lingshan, go to Xiancun to find the village owner, and let her go to Xianxiang to complain. Yang Xuan said.
"That's right. Yang Lisheng also agreed.
"All those things I told you were in vain. Jin Ling snorted, "From now on, we are not allowed to say anything about the camp! We must concentrate on doing what we want to do! If you don't want to come, then you go back and go to complain! I'll go to the Spirit Mountain alone to have a look!"
This time, everyone was silent.
"Everyone, relax, the god of fate will not treat those who work hard!" Jin Ling said, "Now everyone keep your voice down and talk less!"
The periphery of the forest at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, which has not yet officially entered Lingshan, is the junction of grassland and forest, with mostly shrubs and occasional clusters of deep forests. The climate here is cool and humid, and there is a wide variety of plants, especially rattans, which grow very luxuriantly. These bushes stretch for dozens of miles, and there are all kinds of grinding beasts and beasts that like to live in the open field.
After only entering the two-mile road, Jin Ling and the others encountered a big blue scorpion, which was the size of a basin when it was opened back and forth. Fortunately, it's just an ordinary giant scorpion, not a Warcraft.
It jumped out of the darkness of the jungle, ready to catch a prey by surprise, but Yang Lisheng's eyes were sharp, and he nailed it to the ground far away with an arrow at the first time.
Scorpion tail hooks are poisonous, but when cooked, they are delicious. The hunters in the village once caught scorpions, and they tasted delicious and abnormal after cooking, and Jin Ling also ate them, and he still remembers them vividly. Jin Ling picked the leaves of some huge plants, carefully wrapped the scorpion corpse, and threw it in the space of the bracelet to feast on it in his spare time.
On the way, two clumps of hemostatic grass were also found, which are important raw materials for refining blood-stopping ointment. Yang Xuan was almost familiar with the various varieties of the daily medicinal herbs of the immortals, and he recognized this common hemostatic herb at a glance. immediately called Yang Lisheng and the others and carefully picked them clean.
These are all easy gains along the way.
They also encountered some wild beasts, but they did not fight each other, and they did not want to make trouble. Jin Ling was especially afraid that he would be full of blood and attract powerful demonic beasts.
It is fifty miles from the first warning point. The five-man squad advanced slowly, trying to hide the sounds of the march, only talking in whispers when necessary.
Finally, I saw the first magical beast since I traveled all the way, a lizard as big as an ordinary crocodile. He has blue skin, bulging yellow eyes, a half-foot-long tail, and a mouth full of fangs. It also had the stump of a hare hanging between its teeth, and blood was constantly flowing from between its teeth.
This lizard exuded a faint white light, as if it had shrouded itself in a light veil, and it seemed that its strength was equivalent to the level of a human junior immortal. Maybe it's because they've just eaten enough, and their willingness to attack is not strong, but they just stare at their every move with great vigilance.
With the strength of Jin Ling's team, it would not be a problem to kill such a demonic beast. Yang Lixuan was a little excited and eager to try: "Captain, let me go." I'll see if it has fairy crystals. ”
"No, don't do it. Jin Ling stopped softly.
"Why? Aren't we here to test?" asked Yang Lixuan, puzzled.
"We're here to try, but not to die. Jin Ling said.
Shan Ran stared at her big beautiful eyes: "What do you say?"
"Why are we delayed in Xianxiang for so many days, because we have to collect information about Lingshan and know who we are. Similarly, when we entered the periphery of Lingshan, we had to gather enough intelligence before we could carry out the operation. Jin Ling said, "Our strength is still relatively poor, we can't act rashly, and it is the best policy to meet at the nearest warning point first." If they are not attacked, there is no need to provoke them. ”
"You know, such a magical beast is no problem for us, but the sound of the fight, as well as the blood behind, will attract powerful magical beasts. ”
Although I didn't understand what he meant, he was the captain, and everyone had to obey.
The group quietly walked past the giant lizard. Fortunately, during this process, the lizard just watched vigilantly in place and did not take any action.
Along the way, everyone was under the command of Jin Ling, and those who could not provoke the Demon Beast tried not to provoke it. A total of six demonic beasts were encountered, most of them were not fierce beasts, they were all rabbits, roe deer rats and the like, and they were very timid, seeing that they were so powerful, they didn't fight at all, and fled directly.
Two hours later, they were only five miles away from the nearest third guard point.
The bean who had hit the head suddenly stopped, looked up and sniffed vigorously in the air. Then the hair on his body stood upside down, and he looked very vigilant. You know, even if you have encountered all kinds of Warcraft before,
That's right, there was a faint smell of blood in the air.
"Everyone, be careful, there is a situation. "Benefiting from the Fairy Bracelet, his perception is much more sensitive than others. The others were still dazed, and he had noticed the anomaly.
The team members all nervously clutched their weapons in their hands, and unconsciously got closer. Beanzi took the lead and jumped forward first. Everyone followed. Jin Ling has been with Douzi for a long time and knows its habits. It is willing to move forward so quickly now, and there must be no danger ahead.
The bloody qi came from the corpse of a demonic beast. It is a demon gopher the size of a raccoon cat, this is a common magical beast in the forest, there are many of them, but the strength of the single body is not strong, and the main means of attack is by relying on its sharp teeth. When attacking an opponent, dozens or hundreds of them rush up, each bite can bite off a large piece of the opponent's meat, and in a matter of seconds, the opponent who is unresponsive can be turned into a skeleton.
However, this kind of monster is relatively timid, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and if the opponent shows a strength far beyond himself, it is often difficult to unite together. On the other hand, if the opponent shows signs of timidity or appears to be weak, he is often more courageous and desperate.
The gopher had apparently been slain by a human weapon, and the wound was neatly and smoothly cut from the neck to the chest and abdomen. Someone opened a hole in the brain, probably someone dug out the fairy crystal. The corpse was not yet decomposed, and the blood was still gurgling out.
"Not far ahead, there are human immortals!" Jin Ling said.
