"Yan Ran, where have you been?" Seeing Yan Ran coming back, Du Lingling hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"Went out for a spin. Yan Ran looked around and saw that Jiang Yifan and the monks of the elite team had returned, and now they were gathering together to discuss something.

"I tell you, it looks like your mission is about to run aground. Du Lingling said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Yan Ran was not surprised, she had this premonition when she saw the green light shrouded in the deep mountains.

"Team Chiang, they're going to be sent on a new mission. ”

"Oh!" Yan Ran nodded indifferently.

"Aren't you weird?"

"What's so strange about this, by the way, we are not on a mission, so what are you going to do? When will we leave for Yicheng?"

Du Lingling turned her head to look at Du Tianyu and Ma Siyuan, who were whispering something, and sighed, "I estimate that we won't leave Mucheng for a while." ”

Yan Ran nodded clearly, this place clearly has an organic fate, and no one will easily leave if they encounter it.

For the next half a month, Yan Ran was cultivating in Mucheng, during which the elite team monks all went out early and returned late, and sometimes, they could only see it once every few days.

During this period, Wu Kai came to Yan Ran several times and told her that the monks of the military department and the major forces had entered the mountains to investigate, but they didn't seem to have gained much.

One night, the monk of the elite team returned with his wounds.

"Gu Liang, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Gu Liang and the others coming back covered in blood, Lei Li was startled.

"Don't mention it, when I went deep into the mountain, I got started with the demon inside. Gu Liang sat directly on the spot and said a little tiredly.

"The demon beasts in the mountains are so powerful?" Du Tianyu looked a little surprised, he knew that the monks from other forces in Shu City who went in with the elite team were not weak.

"It's not powerful, it's a lot of it, ants can bite and kill elephants, we were beaten by hundreds of demon beasts, it's a big fate to escape alive!" Gu Liang sighed, when they were in the city, they could still rely on the city wall to resist, but when they entered the deep mountains, that was the territory of demon beasts.

"Where's Captain Jiang?" didn't see Jiang Yifan come back, Lei Li thought that something had happened to him, and his expression was a little sad.

"What do you want?" Gu Liang glared at Lei Li speechlessly, Jiang Yifan was the strongest among them, they were all fine, how could he have something to do, "He went to a meeting, and he will be back later." ”

Lei Li quietly moved to Yan Ran's side and said in a low voice, "Sister Yan Ran, you say, is there any treasure in this mountain? Otherwise, why did Team Jiang go in again and again?"

"Moreover, have you noticed that there are more and more monks in Mucheng!" "When Mucheng was attacked by demon beasts before, there were not so many monks coming.

"It should be!" Yan Ran glanced at Gu Liang and the others who were meditating and pranayama, it seemed that the things in the deep mountains were very extraordinary, and they attracted humans and demon beasts to match each other so quickly.

At this moment, Wu Kai took Wu Yong and Wu Mou to find him again and called Yan Ran out.

"What's the matter?"

"It has been determined that the green light shrouded in the deep mountains is emitted by a hundred-meter-high green bamboo. ”

"Bamboo?" Yan Ran was stunned, "Can one bamboo lure away so many demon beasts?"

"The bamboo is very unusual, and the vitality it exudes is amazing. ”

"Now that Cuizhu is surrounded by demon beasts, if humans want to seize it, they will inevitably have to fight a big battle with the demon beasts in the mountains, if my guess is right, tomorrow, the monks in Mucheng should be able to enter the mountain. ”

"Sister, look, do you want to go in with us to have a look?" Wu Kai looked at Yan Ran expectantly, as if he wanted her to agree.

"I'm on the same team with Jiang Yifan now. ”

"What's this, after entering the deep mountains, Jiang Yifan and they will definitely be with the martial monks, and they won't be able to take care of you at all. ”

Yan Ran pondered for a moment, she didn't like too many people, too many people meant trouble, and if she could, she didn't really want to be with the martial monks, "I have to ask about this matter first." ”

"Okay, you ask first, I'll be here tomorrow morning. ”

"Hmm!"

------

By the time Yan Ran returned to the station, Jiang Yifan had already returned.

"Alright, everyone's here, I have something to say. Jiang Yifan's gaze stayed on Yan Ran for a moment, and then continued, "I think everyone should have noticed the abnormal movement in the deep mountains outside Mu City. ”

"Team Jiang, what happened in the mountains?" asked Lei Li impatiently.

"There is a strange treasure in the deep mountains, it is a green bamboo, according to the information we have detected, this green bamboo is condensing bamboo shoots at this time. This bamboo shoot is not only rich in aura, but also contains abundant vitality power, which can help us quickly improve our cultivation. ”

"The scholars of the Dao Alliance Alchemy Department have preliminarily predicted that taking a bamboo shoot the size of a fist can at least make the early stage of foundation building directly advance to the middle stage of foundation building. ”

"Suck ~"

Everyone gasped.

After entering the foundation building realm, everyone's cultivation is very slow, and just by meditating, one or two months may not be able to increase a trace of cultivation.

Now that they heard that there was a strange treasure that could help them advance quickly, how could they not surprise and excite everyone.

Even Yan Ran was a little nervous after hearing it, she needed too much aura to advance, although she still had spirit peaches on her body, but who would have too many such treasures, of course, the more the merrier.

"However, now Cuizhu has been surrounded by demon beasts. Jiang Yifan said with a serious expression, "If we want to get bamboo shoots, we must first break through the encirclement of demon beasts." ”

"Team Jiang, what do you need us to do?" asked Lei Li directly.

"I hope that from tomorrow onwards, everyone will be able to follow us into the mountains to hunt the demon beasts inside. Jiang Yifan quickly looked at Du Lingling and the four of them, these four people are very strong, especially Du Lingling, her divine sense can be released, and after entering the mountain, she can check whether there is danger around her in advance.

When Du Tianyu saw Jiang Yifan looking at it, he didn't hesitate much, and said directly, "It is our duty to hunt demon beasts." "After knowing that there is a treasure in the deep mountains, they discussed it, with Du Lingling here, they have a great opportunity to seize it, so naturally they will not miss it.

Jiang Yifan looked at Yan Ran again, but before Yan Ran could speak, Xiao Yue on the side spoke weakly.

"That... Captain Jiang, can I participate? I am also a peak Qi cultivation cultivator, and I can also help hunt demon beasts. ”

Jiang Yifan wanted to refuse, but seeing Xiao Yue's cautious look, thinking of her care for everyone during this time, she pondered for a while, and nodded.

Seeing that Jiang Yifan agreed, Xiao Yue immediately showed a smile on her face, "Captain Jiang, don't worry, I won't drag everyone down." If you're in danger, you don't care about me. ”

"Xiao Yue, what do you say, we are a team, if you are in danger, how can we ignore you!" Sun Dong said loudly.

"That's it, Xiao Yue, you can't have this idea again in the future. ”

"Hmmm... Thank you!" Xiao Yue looked at everyone with a touched face.

was inserted by her like this, and when Jiang Yifan looked at Yan Ran, he found that Yan Ran had already sat aside to meditate and cultivate.

When Gu Liang saw it, he immediately came to Yan Ran's side with a smile and sat down naturally, "Yan Ran, you have to go into the mountain with us tomorrow!"

Yan Ran opened his eyes, looked at Gu Liang, and said seriously, "There are already so many of you, I'll forget it." ”

Hearing Yan Ran's refusal, Gu Liang looked anxious, "Don't, at this time, naturally, the more people there are, the better." ”

The two didn't lower their voices, and everyone else heard.

"Yan Ran, aren't you with us?" Du Lingling also hurriedly walked over.

Yan Ran shook his head with a smile, and was about to explain a few sentences, when he heard Sun Dong's slightly mocking voice.

"Hmph, people, we've already found a good home, where can we still be seen!"

Hearing this, the smile on Yan Ran's face instantly converged.

"Sun Dong, what did you say! If you can't speak, shut up for me!" Gu Liang knew that it was not good when he heard it, and hurriedly scolded Sun Dong, and was about to appease Yan Ran when he saw her stand up.

"Captain Jiang, I heard that our mission to pick up people in Gongcheng has been canceled?" Yan Ran looked at Jiang Yifan and asked.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yifan nodded, wanting to say something, but Yan Ran didn't give him this opportunity.

"Now that the mission has been canceled, then I don't need to stay here anymore, let's go!" Yan Ran said, and turned around and walked towards the gate.

"Yan Ran... ”

Seeing that Yan Ran left without hesitation, Du Lingling and Gu Liang hurriedly chased out.

"Let's go, let's go, these days, whoever is without him can't live!" Sun Dong muttered quietly, but when he saw Jiang Yifan staring at him, he immediately lowered his head weakly.

"Yan Ran, are you really not with us?"

Yan Ran looked back at Gu Liang and Du Lingling who were chasing after him, and said meaningfully, "I don't want to be chased by demon beasts all over the mountains anymore, last time it was my fate, and next time I may not be so lucky." ”

Without waiting for the two of them to speak, Yan Ran continued, "Lingling, be careful when you go back, you must be careful. ”

After saying that, Yan Ran turned around and left, although she was not 100% sure that the last time she was chased by the demon beast was Xiao Yue's ghost, but Xiao Yue was strange and not as harmless as it seemed, she knew it.

She has already said what she should say, and whether they listen or not is not something she can control.

------

The next day, the city gate of Mucheng.

Wu Kai took Wu Yong and Wu Mou to wait here early in the morning, and when he saw Yan Ran walking out alone, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Looking at the appearance of Wu Kai and others with large bags and small bags, Yan Ran was a little strange.

"Sister, we have to be prepared for a long-term struggle when we enter the mountain this time. Don't worry, I've got you covered!"

"Why is that?"

"I received news last night that bamboo shoots cannot be picked during the condensation of bamboo shoots, otherwise it will destroy the function of bamboo shoots, which is why those demon beasts surrounded Cuizhu, but they were reluctant to do it. ”

"Won't we have to wait a long time in the mountains?"

"No, do you see that the green mangs shrouded in the deep mountains are a little weaker than before?

“。。。。。。 ”

Seeing Yan Ran chatting vigorously with Wu Kai and his party, Jiang Yifan and the others not far away had a little fluctuating expressions.

"I'll just say that she has already found a home, but you still don't believe it, and think she left because of me. Sun Dong muttered.

"If you don't say that, Yan Ran may not leave. Gu Liang glanced at Sun Dong obliquely, his expression was a little unsightly.

"Brother Gu, I found that you are a little too good to that Yan Ran!"

"Hmph... Gu Liang snorted coldly, "Aren't you a little too good to be nice to Xiao Yue?"

"People have taken care of us for so long, and besides, she is a weak woman... ”

"Weak women? How many of those who dare to run outside these years are weak women?"

"Okay, let's not say a word. Jiang Yifan impatiently interrupted the-for-tat confrontation between the two.

By this time, the monks had almost gathered, and some of the groups had already left and set out for the mountain.

"Girl, let's go too!"

There are not many people brought by Wu Kai, but their strength is good, they are all foundation building realm monks, and the group has not gone far when they hear an urgent cry.

"Sister Yan Ran, wait for me!"

"Brother Lei, why are you here?" Yan Ran looked at Lei Li who was running out of breath in surprise.

"I don't like a lot of people, girl, don't mind if I'm on a team with you, right?" Lei Li looked at Yan Ran with a smile.

"You're here, do I mind if it's useful?" Yan Ran shook his head and continued on his way.

Wu Kai took a step behind, looked at Lei Li with a smile, and a trace of shrewdness crossed his eyes, "Brother, it's okay, your eyesight is good!"

Lei Li smiled honestly, "The hero sees the same!" After speaking, he hurried to chase Yan Ran.

Wu Kai did not choose to join the large army, but chose a relatively remote route into the mountains.

"I've gone into the mountains to explore before, and the route we're taking now is the shortest route into the inner perimeter of the deep mountains, and it's also the route with the fewest demon beasts. Wu Kai explained as he walked.

They don't have the manpower and material resources of the Dao Alliance and the major forces, if they want to capture the bamboo shoots, they have to outwit them, which is essential to enter the mountains first, and then it depends on luck.

Yan Ran glanced at Wu Kai, who was full of seriousness and seriousness, and said curiously, "Why don't you join the Wu family monks?"

"With them, I'm afraid I'll die too soon!" Wu Kai's tone was a little gloomy.

Seeing him like this, Yan Ran shut up in recognition of each other.

In the next few days, under the leadership of Wu Kai, Yan Ran and others calmly entered the inner circle of the deep mountain, and as soon as everyone looked up, they could see the rich green light in the distance, and they could also feel the powerful coercion emanating from it.

"There's a Jindan Realm demon beast inside!" Yan Ran said in a deep voice.

"Well, as far as I know, the Dao Alliance has already sent three Jindan monks over. Wu Kai's expression was also very serious, three Jindan monks, that means that there are at least three Jindan Realm demon beasts inside.

Wu Kai looked around for a week, and finally gritted his teeth and chose the direction where the green mangs were the most intense.

"Wait!" Yan Ran said.

"Girl, what's wrong?"

"By going this route, do you want to die?"

"At this time, no matter where we go, it is inevitable to encounter demon beasts! In this case, it is better to take a route that is easiest to grow bamboo shoots. In the eyes of Wu Kai and others, the more intense the green mang, the easier it is to find bamboo shoots.

Yan Ran rolled his eyes back at Wu Kai, this person's typical gambler's thinking, "Who said that this direction is the easiest to grow bamboo shoots?

After speaking, Yan Ran turned around and walked in another direction.

Except for Lei Li, who followed without saying a word, Wu Yong, Wu Mou and the others all looked at Wu Kai, waiting for him to come up with an idea.

"Go, follow. Wu Kai was not angry at all, but happily beckoned his brothers to hurry up.
