"Gollum~~" The toad chirped again, but this time it was not directed at Shan Liang, but at Zang Xiangrong beside Shan Liang, and there was a hint of shame in the scream.

"You're saying that this stone is your compensation for him?" asked Shan Liang as he looked at the toad, pondering the meaning of its cry.

"Quack~~" The toad chirped again, but it was in response to the question of the single beam.

Shan Liang walked to the toad and bent down to pick up the stone that was suspected to be a spirit stone, feeling the stone carefully, this time Shan Liang could confirm that this stone was a spirit stone.

The spirit stone is a unique stone that appeared in the late stage of the flood famine, this kind of stone contains a large number of heaven and earth spirit qi, and it is extremely docile, it is the best auxiliary when cultivating, no one can say how the spirit stone is produced, and why this spirit stone appears.

Although some good quality jade will also contain some heaven and earth Lingqi, but first, it is cost-effective, jade has been relatively expensive from ancient times to the present, and secondly, the amount of Lingqi contained in jade of the same volume is far less than that of Lingqi, so in the later stage of the flood famine, people will only increase their cultivation speed by absorbing the Lingqi in the spirit stone.

"How many of these stones do you have in that cold pool, if there is a surplus, we can exchange it for blood food for you. Shan Liang didn't care whether to coax it or not at this time, and directly took out a bloody thigh wrapped in a plastic bag from his backpack, which was the hind leg of the badger he killed.

The appearance of the spirit stone can be said to be of great significance, the earth has not found a little spirit stone since the return of the spirit qi, if you can bring some back, not to mention auxiliary cultivation, even if you take it for research, this is definitely a good thing worth studying for Director Qi.

"Gollum~~" The toad heard Shan Liang's words and then looked at the blood food in his hand, and after chirping again, he jumped into the cold pool, for it, this kind of stone paving the ground in the cold pool is just comfortable lying on it, and it is definitely not more tempting than the blood food in Shan Liang's hand.

"Director Shan, what the hell is this stone?" Seeing Shan Liang suddenly holding a thing on the ground with an unknown leg, talking to the toad here and almost coaxing, Zang Xiangrong walked over and asked curiously, it was the first time he had seen Shan Liang like this.

"This stone is called a spirit stone, and it is something you can't use, but for cultivators, this stone is a good thing, and it can speed up cultivation. Shan Liang looked at the water surface of the cold pool that was rippling because the toad jumped into it and said, after awakening the ability, you can't cultivate, and naturally you can't use spirit stones, so Shan Liang said this.

"Spirit stone, I don't understand. Zang Xiangrong heard that this thing called a spirit stone was something he couldn't use, so he shook his head without interest and didn't ask any more.

Shan Liang took out all the dog badger thighs in the backpack when the toad had not come up, and he didn't know how long it would take to get out when he entered this small world, and no one knew if the supplies he brought were enough to go out, so he cut off all four of his legs after killing the dog badger as a backup supply, but he didn't expect it to come in handy here.

After waiting for ten minutes, the toad jumped out of the water again, its mouth bulging, as if it was full of things, and after the toad saw the single beam and the thighs of the four dog badgers on the ground, he spit out the spirit stones in his mouth with satisfaction, and there were more than a dozen, each of which was the size of a baby's fist.

"What's more, as long as you take out some more, all this blood food will be yours. After Shan Liang saw these dozen spirit stones, he couldn't help urging the toad excitedly and said.

The toad glanced at Shan Liang a little strangely, it really didn't understand, what was so good about these stones, it would make this human so excited, but just like Shan Liang coveted these stones, the toad was also very interested in those blood food, so he jumped into the cold pool again.

In this way, after several deliveries, the toad finally transported most of the spirit stones in the cold pool, and the reason why most of them was because these spirit stones were very comfortable to lie on it, so it still left some as a bed for sleeping, and then jumped into the cold pool with the blood food in his mouth in Shan Liang's surprised expression.

Seeing this situation, Shan Liang still agreed with the toad's performance of handing stones and taking meat in one mouth, but after seeing the toad take the meat away, he knew that it would not come up again, so he began to count this small pile of spirit stones like a wealth fan.

This toad has transported a total of five times, each trip will pull out more than a dozen spirit stones, Shan Liang found through the inventory, this small pile of spirit stones is full of more than seventy, Shan Liang looked at these spirit stones and was full of satisfaction, and then put these spirit stones into the backpack like a baby, as for some of the empty things in the backpack, Shan Liang put some unimportant things into Zang Xiangrong's backpack.

Although these spirit stones weighed down the backpack extremely heavy, but Shan Liang was still extremely happy to carry these things, he couldn't wait for this backpack to be full of spirit stones, since the matter here was over, Shan Liang took Zang Xiangrong and began to continue to set off towards the depths of the bush jungle in the direction that had been chosen.

On the way, Shan Liang remembered what happened to Zang Xiangrong in Hantan, and couldn't help but wonder why he was so embarrassed, it stands to reason that with his second-order fire elemental ability, he should not be afraid of that toad, how could he be controlled by it instead.

Through Zang Xiangrong's narration, Shan Liang knew that there were two reasons why he was so embarrassed, one was the ground factor in Hantan, where the lingering fog had a congenital disadvantage for him to be close to the fire element, and second, because he was not very skilled in the manifestation of abilities.

Thinking about it, it is only a short month for Shan Liang and Yu Jianhua to promote the manifestation of the ability in the ability group, and it is very reluctant to be able to skillfully learn the full-form Yiquan and then memorize the method of internal force transfer in this month, let alone build the method of ability simulation operation outside the body.

Since the encounter is fate, in this kind of place full of crises, the early grasp of the ability manifestation will have more means of self-preservation, so Shan Liang began to teach Zang Xiangrong the method of ability manifestation, anyway, idle is idle.

Just as the two were talking while walking, Shan Liang suddenly stopped and stretched out his hand to stop Zang Xiangrong, who was still walking forward, "What's the matter, Director Shan?" Zang Xiangrong asked with a still ignorant look.

"Don't you notice that it's a little too quiet here?" said Shan Liang with a heavy face, the two of them had walked out of three or four miles, although they didn't encounter any living creatures along the way, but the insects and birds could still be heard, but in the past few minutes, they didn't hear the slightest similar sound, only the sound of the wind rolling the branches and leaves.

"Is there any danger?" Hearing Shan Liang's words, Zang Xiangrong subconsciously wanted to drill behind Shan Liang, and finally walked to Shan Liang's side and stood in a row with him in Shan Liang's scrutinizing eyes.

Shan Liang looked at Zang Xiangrong's subconscious reaction and shook his head speechlessly, the danger consciousness and combat awareness of these new team members are too weak, and they still have to strengthen their training.

In fact, Shan Liang's idea is correct, although the number of the current action team has increased a lot with the excavation and cultivation of the special bureau, but these people are some rookies, even if they are discovered from the army with a certain amount of training and even combat experience, more often they are still dominated by the previous concepts, and they don't pay much attention to the ability and the internal force of cultivation.

Even the group of people who followed Shan Liang to encircle and suppress the alien beasts at the beginning were only involved in the work of auxiliary containment at that time, and they did not really fight in this regard, so they are no different from rookies, at most, they don't panic when they see some strange things, but their combat effectiveness still needs to be strengthened.

Thinking of this, Shan Liang shook his head and put these thoughts on the back of his mind for the time being, it is still necessary to deal with the situation in front of him first, "Generally speaking, in the forest, insects and birds are indispensable, unless there is a big insect or some danger is about to approach, but in this small world, there will be this possibility when encountering any form of danger, and you must be wary of anything inconspicuous." ”

Is a mosquito dangerous? Everyone who hears this sentence will scoff, what danger can there be in slapping something to death, even if it can't be slapped to death and let it bite and suck some blood, it won't be able to suck much anyway, at most itchy.

But there is such a mosquito, because it took advantage of people's unpreparedness, sucked away a quarter of a saint's innate spirit treasure and sucked away all the cultivation of a Da Luo Jin Immortal as a primordial god, leaving only a skin, although in the end it was slapped to death by another saint in a rage, but the result could not be reversed, so everything is possible on the path of cultivation.

"The only way to deal with this is to be more prepared and wait for danger to come. Shan Liang said solemnly, completely no longer the ease when he coaxed the toad.

"Then what should we do now?" Hearing Shan Liang's solemnity, Zang Xiangrong also began to get nervous, looking around expectantly, like a headless fly.

"Walk to the clearing in front of us, the forest is deep and dense, and even if there is any situation, we can't find out at the first time. Shan Liang said and walked forward slowly, and Zang Xiangrong hurriedly kept up with Shan Liang's pace when he saw this.

Just as they were slowly moving to the clearing in front of them, they suddenly saw the grass on their left begin to move, as if something was lying in ambush there, and then a black shadow sprang out of the grass and swooped down on the place where Shan Liang was standing.

Shan Liang, who had long been on guard, saw this scene, reached out and grabbed Zang Xiangrong's shoulder, and with a heavy thud under his feet, he took him to dodge the black shadow's attack, and then rushed to the open space in front of him, until the black shadow pounced on the ground and fell to the ground, and then they had time to see the black shadow that attacked them.

It was a giant black wolf with a body length of four meters, the height of the shoulders was one meter four or five, and there was no variegated black fur all over the body, and there were dense scars on this black miscellaneous hair, some of which had scabbed off and left only a shallow mark, but in some places it was scabbed and broken away, and there were traces of blood flowing out of the wound.

"It's good that it's just a lone wolf. Shan Liang listened to the surrounding environment with his ears, looked at the giant black wolf in front of him and whispered to Zang Xiangrong.
