The soup is boiled with dry food powder, although it can relieve satiety, but the taste is not flattering, but fortunately, with the salt water that Meng Li has just filtered, it can be reluctantly accepted.

The two shared lunch and rested under the stone platform. Within a moment, Lee's gravity exhaustion improved.

Meng Li looked at Li Chong, whose face had recovered, and asked, "Are you better?"

Although Li Chong was no longer hostile to Meng Li, he would not bow his head, twisted his head to the side, and snorted coldly: "Don't think that if you help me, I will be grateful to you." ”

Meng Li looked at Li Chong, who wanted to save face, and couldn't cry or laugh.

"Don't worry, I didn't intend to make you grateful, it's just a pity for my pot of chicken soup. ”

Li Chongsheng blushed and said, "Isn't it just a pot of chicken soup! I'll catch a bunch of pheasants for you in a while, so that you can cook enough." ”

Grab a flock of pheasants to cook?

Meng Li was stunned, pointed to his head and said, "Has anyone said that you have a problem here?"

"You mean I'm stupid?" Li Chong's eyes widened, and he couldn't wait to get up immediately and fight Meng Li for three hundred rounds. Ever since he was a child, except for his father and uncle, no one has ever said that he was stupid.

"Don't get excited, can't you count me wrong?"

Seeing that Li Zheng was playing with him, Meng Li immediately raised his hands and confessed.

It's really not necessary to be honest with this fool.

"You're interested. ”

Li Chong's chin was raised, as if he had finally won Meng Li, and he was triumphant.

Meng Li, who rolled his eyes in his heart, really didn't want to dwell on this topic, so he changed the question and asked, "Didn't you leave before, why did you suddenly come back?"

Hearing Meng Li ask about this, Li Chong's expression changed, and he said solemnly: "We are in big trouble!"

Got into big trouble?

Meng Li frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

You must know that Li Chong is a martial artist who refines the body and forges seven times, and it will not be easy for him to call it a big trouble.

Li Chong returned to the three forks, he must have been blocked by something, and there didn't seem to be many such things in the Unbounded Stone Forest.

Thinking of yesterday's experience, Meng Li hesitated: "You won't have encountered a fierce beast, right?"

"You guessed it. Li Zhong pointed to the road in front of him and said with a wry smile: "In front of this road, there is a night cat, this beast has amazing strength and speed, I fought with it before, but it was not its opponent, so I had no choice but to retreat here." ”

"Night cat?" Meng Li thought of the big black cat in his mind.

It turned out to be a night owl!

Night cats are one of the most famous beasts, and Meng Li had also learned about fierce beasts and spirit beasts when he was studying martial arts with Yan Xingguan before.

Among them is the introduction of night cats.

The night cat is transformed from an ordinary wild cat, and the bloodline level itself is not high, but this fierce beast has the ability to absorb the essence of moonlight, and its growth potential is huge.

Among the known heaven-level fierce beasts today, there is a Night Elvis King who was transformed from a night cat, and his strength is very terrifying.

Since it is a night cat with great growth potential, it is even more difficult to stay.

Meng Li groaned, "What level do you think that night cat is?"

Li Chong said without thinking: "Seven forging peak, when I fought with it before, it wasn't completely powerless......

At least it can be done by escaping! Li Zhong silently added in his heart.

The Night Cat's specialty is his speed, which is slightly lacking in strength.

Meng Li fought with the night cat before, and this beast retreated without a fight, not without this reason.

Li Chong said thoughtfully: "By the way, we seem to have something here that beast is afraid of, it was already about to chase me before, but when I retreated here, it gave up the pursuit. ”

Beasts have far more intuition than humans, and are particularly sensitive to danger.

When Li Chong returned to the fork in the road, he saw the hesitation of the night cat, so there was such a guess.

Something to be afraid of?

Meng Li touched his chin and said frankly: "I can't hide it, I also met that night cat once before. ”

Li Chong was surprised: "Have you ever met?"

"Nope. Meng Li shook his head and said, "I stabbed it, and then it ran away." ”

"Did you hurt it? No, it didn't have any injuries on its body!" Li Chong's eyes lit up, and then quickly dimmed, he lowered his head, thought for a moment, and then clapped his hands violently and said, "I understand?"

Meng Li was taken aback by his sudden move and asked, "Understand what?"

Li Chongdao: "That night cat must be afraid of your power, so he didn't dare to enter." ”

"No, I've seen that night cat, not to mention its agility, and its strength is so great that it shouldn't be afraid of me. Meng Li was a little unconvinced, when he met the night cat before, he just waved a knife, and it shouldn't have scared the other party.

"Maybe it's cautious enough!"

The two couldn't figure it out, so they had to give up.

Because of the existence of the night cat, the two decided to cooperate temporarily for the rest of the way.

After resting under the stone platform for a while, when Li Zhong fully recovered, the two buried the fire and set out on the road.

The road after the convergence is more complicated than the previous one.

The stone road is rugged and twists and turns.

Invisibly, it hindered the speed of the two of them.

The two of them stopped as they circled through the stone paths until a huge throne-like rock appeared in front of them.

"Be careful, night cats are nearby. ”

Li Zhong grabbed Meng Li and pointed to the huge stone seat in front of him, with a solemn expression.

Before he walked to this place, the night cat suddenly jumped out, almost scared him half to death, and the subsequent pursuit made him even more painful.

I still have lingering palpitations.

"Let's go and see. ”

Unlike Li Chong's palpitations, Meng Li was eager to try, not only was he not afraid, but he was a little excited.

Although Li Chong was a little uneasy, he still forced his scalp to follow.

The two of them circled around the stone seat, but found nothing. Don't say it's the cat, and you can't find a single cat hair.

Instead, they found some beast scratches on the surrounding rocks.

"Looks like the cat is gone!"

Meng Li sighed, his tone revealing loss.

"If you want me to see, that beast must have known that you and I were working together, and ran away from it. Li Chong, who breathed a sigh of relief, laughed, not without pride, and couldn't associate it with Fang Cai's frightened appearance at all.

Really ran away?

Meng Li frowned, expressing puzzlement.

Fierce beasts are called fierce beasts because they are extremely harmful to humans. Fierce beasts are like flies that see blood and flock to them, and they have never heard of the existence of respectful and distant beings.

The night cat met Li Chong here before, and he should continue to wait for the rabbit, but how long has it been, why is it gone?

After all, there is no other "prey" in this passage except them.

As for what Li Chong just said about being scared away by them, in Meng Li's opinion, it is even more nonsense.

What now?

Do you want to leave here?

Meng Li didn't want to give up, you must know that the number of fierce beasts hunted is also an important criterion for evaluating task rewards.

Each time you get rid of a ferocious beast, you can add an additional second-class mission reward.

What a reward for the second-class mission!

The tattoo is five hundred taels of silver, and the value of the martial arts is one hundred points.

Meng Li was unwilling to say: "The night cat is likely to be hiding nearby, so it's better for us to look for it again." ”

Regarding Meng Li's persistence, Li Zhong was quite speechless.

"There's no need for this! I want to see that it's better not to meet it, and it saves a lot of trouble. ”

Meng Li asked rhetorically, "Can you guarantee that it is not hiding in the shadows and preparing for a sneak attack?"

Meng Li hit the nail on the head and hit Li Chong's vital point, only to see his body stiffen, and his face gradually turned blue.

That's right, with the speed of the other side, they really can't parry.

"Alright then, let's look for it again!"

Then, the two walked side by side. Centered on the stone seat, gradually expand to the surrounding area.

Half an hour later, the two returned to their original places.

"How's it going? You're going to die this time, aren't you?" Li shrugged, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he really didn't want to face that terrifying night cat again.

"Looks like the night cat really isn't here!"

Meng Li smiled bitterly, his tone full of disappointment.

This guy looks polite, but he can't imagine that he is still a martial arts madman!

Li Chong looked at Meng Li and was secretly frightened, he hesitated: "This night cat is likely to have completed its second transformation, and its IQ is not weaker than that of humans, so we can't treat it as an ordinary fierce beast." ”

Meng Li nodded and agreed: "Indeed, ordinary fierce beasts would not be so cunning. After that, he turned his head and asked, "What do you think we should do now?"

Li Zhong smiled bitterly: "It's better for you to decide!"

Now Li Chong has recognized a reality, and with Meng Li, his decision has almost no effect.

"Keep going. Meng Li made a very crisp decision without thinking.

Li Chong said darkly, "Sure enough", and echoed: "Although there is no time limit for the beast removal task, the competition between the major martial arts halls is a race against time. We have to get to the final meeting point as soon as possible. After all, the Inner Domain is our main goal. ”

There is no doubt that there are more fierce beasts living in the interior of the Unbounded Stone Forest. At the same time, the level of danger there is much greater than that of the outside area.

To be honest, Li Chong already regretted participating in this mission after seeing the night cat.

If you encounter such a powerful beast in the outer realm, you may not know what kind of existence you will encounter when you reach the inner realm.

At the same time, he felt strange in his heart.

According to the experience of previous years, the strongest fierce beast in the stone forest was only equivalent to a martial artist at the peak of the Seven Forgings, why did they encounter it before they entered the inner domain?

"There's the second meeting point ahead, so let's get there. ”

Just as the two were about to move on, a strange change occurred in the stone forest that caught their attention.

I only heard the front of the stone forest, and suddenly there was a roar of a beast!

Meow ......

The voice was poignant, with a hint of warning and fear.

The voice...... It's a cat meow!" Li was shocked, and his expression changed suddenly.

Meng Li's face was equally solemn, and he nodded: "Well, it's indeed like the roar of that night cat, let's go over and have a look." ”

In case of special circumstances, Meng Li can naturally let it go.
