Chapter 14, Talking Ginseng
As soon as the morning dawned, everyone began to continue to climb to the Jade Bead Peak, and then after several days of hard crawling, and countless small battles with animals, the group climbed up to the half-waist of the Jade Bead Peak in embarrassment!
During this period, thanks to Luo Xuan, Sun Haonan, and Li Feng, since they got the cultivation exercises, the strength of the three of them has been rising.
When they were attacked by animals, the three of them went from being nervous and struggling at the beginning to being able to play with ease later, and everyone was extremely envious!
"With the same exercises, we were still cultivating a while earlier than the three of them, so why did they make so much progress than us?" a monk with a spiritual root muttered with a depressed face.
In fact, he is not the only one who is depressed, most of the people brought by Xu Zhengyuan have spiritual roots, and they are also depressed!
They can only send out a few spiritual powers now, and the spiritual energy in their bodies will be consumed, but the three of Luo Xuan, after a fierce battle, there will still be some spiritual energy left in their bodies!
It's really more human than human, and it's infuriating!
"yes, that's a big difference!"
"Professor Xu, what do you say is going on?"
"This can only show that the spirit fruit they eat is very unusual!" Xu Zhengyuan said with a twinkle in his eyes.
Then, before everyone could catch their breath, the group heard the sound of fierce fighting coming down from the top of the mountain, the roaring gods of animals, the screams of humans, and the loud sound of rocks cracking and giant trees collapsing!
Luo Xuan's face changed, and someone screamed for help, that is, people from other teams went up, judging from the tragedy of the sound, the people above encountered a very tricky animal.
After pondering for a while, Luo Xuan said to Xu Zhengyuan, "There are other teams fighting above, and we have to go up to support, but the situation above is unknown, so Professor Xu, you stay here and wait first, and I will take the people of the dragon team to go up first to have a look, if there is no danger, I will come to pick you up!"
"Everything is up to Captain Luo!" In terms of commanding operations, Xu Zhengyuan is not involved at all, he knows very well that there is a specialization in the art industry.
After arranging the defense of the soldiers, Luo Xuan and the six of them quickly ran towards the mountain, and after a short while, the figure disappeared!
"Captain Luo, they deserve to be the best special forces in China, it's a pity... ”
"Professor, what is the pity?" Jiang Wenyan looked at Xu Zhengyuan in confusion.
"It's a pity that there are three special forces who don't have a spiritual root!"
"Doesn't the government have a reserve of Shaping Spirit Fruits?
"Hehe, isn't it enough to take out three? Do you think the Spirit Fruit is so good, although the government has some, it is impossible to take care of everyone!" Xu Zhengyuan shook his head with a smile, as if he was laughing at Jiang Wenyan's innocence.
"That... It's really a pity!" Jiang Wenyan pulled the corners of her mouth in embarrassment.
Luo Xuan and the three of them walked for several days, during which the fighting on the peak never stopped, but there was a trend of getting more and more intense!
At the edge of the team, Yan Ran frowned and looked at the direction of the peak, the situation above seemed to be a little unoptimistic!
In the past few days, Yan Ran and Wu Kai's situation has become more and more embarrassing, and when distributing food, they are always ignored intentionally or unintentionally!
"Let's go!" Yan Ran tilted his head at Wu Kai.
"Ah, where?"
"Of course you're looking for food, aren't you hungry?" Yan Ran took the lead in walking out, in the past few days, she had cultivated once, not because she didn't want to, but because after every time she cultivated, she would feel extremely hungry.
They were halfway up the Jade Bead Peak, and they couldn't go up or down, so she had to control the number of cultivations.
As soon as the two of them left, Qian Mingrong, who had been secretly staring at them, immediately reported to Xu Zhengyuan, and then, Xu Zhengyuan, Jiang Wenyan and Qian Mingrong also left the team and quietly followed behind Yan Ran.
"Professor Qian, are you sure that girl named Yan Ran can find the spirit fruit?" Xu Zhengyuan looked at Qian Mingrong with a serious face.
"Professor Xu, the spirit fruits of Captain Luo's three people were all found by her, and it is a coincidence that there are two in everything, but she found three spirit fruits in a row, which is enough to show that she is outstanding in finding spirit fruits!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhengyuan nodded and did not continue to ask.
Dozens of meters away from them, Yan Ran, who was watching left and right, suddenly paused, and then a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
"Girl, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, go on, I seem to hear the sound of running water, let's go over and have a look!"
Wu Kaihu looked at Yan Ran who was walking in front suspiciously, was there a sound of running water? Why didn't he hear it? But when he followed Yan Ran out of this maze forest and saw a river two or three meters wide, he began to believe in his heart that Yan Ran was coming!
"Sister, do you want to go over?" Seeing Yan Ran walking towards the river, Wu Kai hurriedly grabbed her, the shadow area left by the anaconda he met in the river before was too big!
"If you don't go there, how can you find something to eat?"
"But aren't you afraid of another monster like a water snake flying out of the river?"
"This river should be safe, let's be careful!" Yan Ran carefully probed the river, and did not feel any danger.
After a while, Yan Ran used a cow bone knife to insert three silver fish more than one meter long from the river, Wu Kai saw that there was indeed no danger by the river, and immediately found some firewood nearby and began to grill the fish.
Half an hour later, the two burped contentedly, then caught a few more fish, this time turning and walking towards the team.
When he returned to the team, Yan Ran glanced at Xu Zhengyuan and Qian Mingrong, who were a little ugly, and the corners of his mouth went up!
When the sun was about to set, there was a commotion in the team, and as soon as Yan Ran turned his head, he saw Luo Xuan and several people covered in blood, supporting each other and walking into the campsite!
"Captain Luo, what's wrong with you?" Xu Zhengyuan and the others hurriedly surrounded him.
After some inquiry, everyone knew how dangerous the situation on the Jade Bead Peak was, there were powerful animals everywhere, and the team that went up before them was almost wiped out!
Fortunately, the government dispatched hot weapons in time to stop the casualties on this side!
"What, animals can speak?" An extremely surprised voice sounded, which directly shocked everyone!
"Hmph, I don't know, but I just open my mouth to speak, do you need to be so surprised?" A young voice with a milky sound came into everyone's ears.
Everyone searched for the voice, and finally their eyes stayed on Li Feng's shoulder.
At this time, Li Feng was hanging a one-foot-long, yellow and tender ginseng on his shoulder!
The moment they saw the ginseng, some scholars screamed in shock, which was beyond their previous understanding!
What did they see, the ginseng on Li Feng's shoulder could not only speak, but what was even more terrifying was that it also had a face, two roots were wrapped around his chest as if his arms were around, and the other two roots were like people crossing Erlang's legs.
Ginseng sat on Li Feng's shoulder like this, looking at them with disdain!
"What's the ghost called, haven't you seen ginseng?" Ginseng looked at the screaming people with disdain, and shook his head as he spoke.
"Ginseng treasure!" Li Feng was a little helpless to stop the ginseng he wanted to say, and when he saw Xu Zhengyuan, they all looked at him with puzzled eyes, and explained, "This ginseng is the demon pet I received!"
Hearing Li Feng introduce himself like this, Ginseng pursed his lips, looking a little dissatisfied, if it wasn't for this person being injured, he just happened to be unlucky enough to swallow his essence and blood, and completed the master-servant contract with him, how could it find such a weak master!
Ginseng quickly looked around the crowd, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he slipped off Li Feng's shoulder and ran towards the periphery of the crowd.
"Little sister, Shenbao is polite!" said and made a very gentlemanly bending motion.
Yan Ran's face was a little stiff and he looked at the ginseng standing at his feet.
"Little sister, why didn't you go to the peak before, if you go, they will be yours!"
Hearing these complaining words, Yan Ran couldn't help but shudder, and Li Feng, who had just come over, twitched several times on his face.
On the way back, Ginseng complained and disliked, and he and the members of the Wyvern Team were calloused!
After a while, Yan Ran organized his language and asked, "Little ginseng, how can you speak?"
"Shen Bao is not talented, I am fortunate to be blessed by the holy mountain, and I got a drop of Ganlin essence, which is why I opened my spiritual wisdom in advance!" When he said this, Ginseng looked respectful and serious, and bowed to Yuzhu Peak.
"What Ganlin Essence?"
"Ganlin essence is a gift from the holy mountain, it is very rare, generally only demons with extraordinary qualifications and outstanding talents like me can get it, and on the Jade Pearl, there are only a few old guys who have been blessed by the holy mountain like me!"
"Then can we get that essence of the rain?" a scholar hurriedly asked, what can make ginseng speak, must be very precious!
"You guys?" Ginseng squinted at the scholar, and his speaking attitude directly changed one hundred and eighty degrees compared to Yan Ran, "Don't daydream!"
"Shenbao, why is the strength of the animals on the Jade Pearl Peak so powerful?" Luo Xuan also came over at this time, when he was with them before, this ginseng was losing his temper together, and he refused to say anything.
"Don't you feel it? The aura on the Jade Bead Peak is much richer than in other places, and there are still a lot of precious elixir and spirit fruits on it, and there is also a spiritual liquid pool on the peak! Those old guys have lived on the peak for thousands of years, can their strength not be strong?"
Ginseng said angrily, then turned around quickly, and immediately raised a smile on his face, and said to Yan Ran, "Little sister, Shenbao knows a lot about Yuzhu Peak, if the young lady needs it... ”
"I don't need it!" Yan Ran directly interrupted Ginseng's words, and quickly dodged away!
"Hey, young lady, don't go, the people haven't finished talking yet!" Ginseng wanted to chase after him, but he was twisted up by Li Feng...
