......

Looking at Ou Chuyang's thoughtful appearance, Qi Ling suddenly smiled: "What's the matter?"

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang glanced at Qi Ling: "Nonsense, who can not be tempted, that is a high-level martial art." Ou Chuyang replied, and then, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he sighed and said: "However, it is useless to be tempted, there is no strength, and it is useless to participate." ”

In fact, Ou Chuyang has already been moved by Qi Ling's words, however, Ou Chuyang knows his own situation, his body is highly poisonous, at present, whether his life can be saved, it is difficult to say, Qi Ling, who does not know Ou Chuyang's situation, saw that Ou Chuyang was not said by himself with a sense of excitement, so he shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and then felt that he didn't say enough, and suddenly laughed evilly, and said mysteriously: "Actually, if you can become a strong person on the holy list, there is a big benefit." ”

"And what's good? What's good?"

"Hey, hey. Qi Ling sneered, leaned in Ou Chuyang's ear and whispered: "You know, the higher the ranking on the holy list, the easier it is to be favored by the beauties on the beauty list, and this benefit is not weaker than the Tibetan canon on the martial arts pavilion." ”

"Dizzy. After Ou Chuyang heard this, he immediately grinned, and said in his heart: I thought it was a benefit, but it turned out that this kid was talking about this aspect.

Disdainful, Ou Chuyang glared at Qi Ling and did not answer. And Qi Ling saw that Ou Chuyang was not only not touched by his words, but had a look of disdain, and said in surprise at the moment: "Ah~? You must know that all the beauties on this beauty list are all from the heavens and the country. ”

Glaring at Qi Ling again, Ou Chuyang said speechlessly: "Could it be that you have learned these things after two years of coming to the Holy Land?" I think you should put your mind on cultivation when you have time. Where is this, this is the Shangwu Academy, compared to the Yongwu Continent, it is too small. ”

It didn't seem to fully understand what Ou Chuyang meant, Qi Ling was stunned on the spot, he didn't understand very much, his "bombshell" was put in the past to talk about any new students, it would attract a lot of admiration, but now, the young man in front of him, who was a lot younger than himself, was not half distracted. Inevitably, Qi Ling's gaze towards Ou Chuyang began to change slightly, and this change made this young man who had been in the academy for two years also have an incredible feeling.

Ignoring Qi Ling, Ou Chuyang was still as plain as before after listening to the former's introduction, and sat on the ground without saying a word, and at this time, the time was still far away from the sunset, so he didn't plan to go back. After carefully checking the few pills he had left, Ou Chuyang decided to sell all the pills before leaving, he didn't want to sit here and waste time the next day. According to Ou Chuyang's thoughts, it is better to go to the vitality pool to cultivate well if there is such time, and the most important thing is to improve as soon as possible.

As time passed, the red sun finally descended to the western horizon, and after reluctantly releasing its last red rays, darkness finally descended on the earth. At this time, Ou Chuyang had already returned to the medicine garden.

On the simple wooden table, there were dozens of glittering spirit beast crystal nuclei, and Ou Chuyang stood in front of the table, the essence in his eyes was brighter than when he was at the strongest, his fists were clenched, and the sweat had already been densely covered in his palms at some point, perhaps because he was too hard, but the dense sweat slipped down the gap in his fist, and in the hut, with the "crackling" sound of a residual red candle burning on the table, echoing even more Ou Chuyang's whispers.

"Holy List, Martial Arts Pavilion. ”

Yuan Ming. One is an old man who is about sixty years old, this person has obtained the qualification to enter the Holy Land at the age of fifteen with the strength of a junior martial guard, and in the five years of cultivation in the Holy Land, Yuan Ming's strength has increased by leaps and bounds, until he has advanced to the realm of a fourth-level martial artist, and because he has the same transcendent talent as martial arts cultivation in alchemy, he was retained by the dean of the Holy Land at that time and became one of the mentors of the Holy Land.

Since then, Yuan Ming has lived in the Holy Land for thirty-two years, and he has not gone out of the Holy Land for half a step. Although he lived in the same place, the old man did not feel bored, and it was also because of Yuan Ming's resolute heart that he was appreciated by the old dean, so that his status rose all the way in the Holy Land, and finally sat in the position of the elder, and began to manage the Holy Land Medicine Garden.

This is the eighth year after Yuan Ming became an elder, and he has slept with medicine for decades, so that this resolute old man has already fallen in love with this hundred hectares of medicine field full of herbal aromas.

Yuan Ming has a habit, he will come out of his residence every morning and go for a walk in the medicine garden, and in this process, he will take care of almost every herb planted in the medicine garden as if he is taking care of his own children, in his eyes, even if there are some rare and rare high-grade herbs that are on the mainland, any Dan master will be crazy and obsessed with them, and those ordinary low-level herbs are the same as those ordinary low-level herbs, they are the objects of love in his heart, in Yuan Ming's heart, herbs have no grade, they are the same as spirit animals or people, they are all life-rich spiritual creatures。

As long as he walked in the medicine garden filled with the rich medicinal fragrance, Yuan Ming's heart would have an indescribable sense of tranquility and peace. But today is very different. The reason is that when he walked to a place in the medicine garden, Yuan Ming found that most of the large pieces of wind grass planted here had disappeared.

This situation, in the previous period of time, Yuan Ming had already discovered something, but at that time, it was only a few fewer plants a day. But recently, Yuan Ming discovered that this wind grass is decreasing day by day, until today, more than half of the wind grass in this large area of planting land has disappeared strangely for some reason.

This discovery made this old man who loved flowers very indignant, and after frowning and observing for a while, Yuan Ming finally found that in this area planted with wind grass, the soil actually had traces of being excavated.

"Who's on duty today? In anger, Yuan Ming stood up and raised his head to the sky and shouted. Then, I saw a thin young man running over in panic.

Seeing the young man's face clearly, Yuan Ming asked sharply: "Qiling, it's your turn to be on duty today." ”

The young man was Qi Ling, and after hearing Yuan Ming's question, the former immediately gave a respectful salute: "Elder Hui, it's me." ”

Yuan Ming's face was slightly angry, and he pointed to a piece of ground that had been vacated by the disappearance of the wind grass, and scolded sharply: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Listening to Yuan Ming's loud shout, Qi Ling hurriedly looked in the direction of his finger, and when he saw the empty ground with only dirt, he immediately sweated like rain.

"This..."

Seeing the strange spirit's hesitant and seemingly speechless demeanor, Yuan Ming couldn't help but be furious: "Where is the wind and grass gone, take a good look, this is obviously excavated, and it is a large amount of excavation, how are you on duty?"

Maybe it was because he saw that a large number of herbs were dug up, Yuan Ming was not lightly angry, and the angry words were mixed with a slight internal strength, and he spit out vigorously, which frightened Qi Ling back a few steps.

"Actually... , yes..."

"Don't ramble, say it. ”

"Yes. Qi Ling trembled, didn't dare to hide it anymore, and immediately replied truthfully: "Actually, this was done by Ou Chuyang, and he also dug it with your permission." ”

"Ou Chuyang?" Hearing this, Yuan Ming was stunned for a moment, and then became even more angry, but when Qi Ling waited for the former's angry rebuke, Yuan Ming did not follow.

His eyes flickered frequently, and after a while, Yuan Ming did not let out an earth-shattering anger as Qi Ling expected, but gradually calmed down.

After relenting a little, Yuan Ming asked, "Where is he now?" Let him come to see me immediately. ”

"Elder Hui, Ou Chuyang went out hunting with a group of new students this morning, and it is estimated that it will take two days to come back. ”

"Not here?" Yuan Ming was stunned.

"Yes, he's not in the medicine garden right now. Qi Ling replied slightly.

"Huh! He scolded angrily in his heart, and then Yuan Ming instructed Qi Ling: "No matter when he is, as long as he comes back, let him come to see me immediately." After speaking, Yuan Ming shook his sleeve robe and left.

Seeing Yuan Ming leaving, Qi Ling didn't even move, watching Yuan Ming's departure in horror, until the old and tall back disappeared from his sight, Qi Ling let out a sigh, looked at the empty ground, and muttered: "Ou Chuyang, you can get into trouble now." ”

The thick black mist, like the dead air of hell, lingers in the dark mountains all year round, and in this strange belt of extremely oppressive atmosphere, a team of men and horses are carefully pulling out the dense weeds, slowly moving forward.

"Be careful, there is a third-level zone in front, and I don't know why, I heard from the old student that recently, the spirit beasts in this dark mountain range seem to have spiritual intelligence, and they are not at all like before, they appear alone, and now they are actually perched in groups in the woods. Therefore, we must be more careful, if we encounter a particularly large group of spirit beasts, we must not act rashly. After all, with our strength, it's okay to deal with a small number of spirit beasts, but if there are too many, the danger is too great. ”

As she walked cautiously, a young girl in a white dress reminded the rest of the group as she walked.

"Ou Chuyang, this is your first time coming out, some places are not familiar, don't walk around. The girl in white reminded the young man beside her.

The young man is Ou Chuyang, and it is Dongfang Xue who reminded him.

Hearing Dongfang Xue's reminder, Ou Chuyang did not answer, but just nodded heavily, his expression extremely solemn.

"Hey. It seemed to be a low and inaudible cry squeezed out of his throat, Xu Jie'er in the team slowly approached Ou Chuyang and asked, "Why do you have to come here? The wind wolf here is a group of spirit beasts, and it is difficult to deal with." ”

Turning his head slightly, Ou Chuyang did not hide it, and replied in a low voice: "Because there is only Wugen here, and there are a lot of them." ”

"Are you going to refine the elixir?" asked Xu Jie'er tentatively.

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang stopped talking, just nodded and gave the other party affirmation.

It turned out that Ou Chuyang had been reluctant to drag Xu Jie'er and the others down, and he was reluctant to go out of the holy land to hunt, but what he didn't expect was that the Wugen refining Swift Pill in the medicine garden was very rare, and after a few days of excavation, he found that the maturity period of this Wugen was very long. In this way, there is no guarantee that the Swift Pill will be handed over to Xiao Jingling on time. So in desperation, Ou Chuyang looked at the Baicao Gang, and after some research, he finally decided to ask Xu Jie'er and others for help, and came to this area rich in Wugen, but what he didn't expect was that there were not only Wugens here, but also many third-level spirit beasts: Wind Wolf.

The dark mountains, which are shrouded in black fog all year round, are extremely gray and gloomy, even at noon when the red sun is in the sky.

Through the thorny weeds, several faint rays of light were projected from it, directly hitting a canine spirit beast in the dense forest that was larger than a wolf dog.

Lying in the weeds, sniffing the damp and rancid smell coming from the soil under him, Ou Chuyang subconsciously frowned: "It's too unpleasant, the environment here is much worse than the Suncurtain Forest, although it is also a scene of an ancient jungle, but after all, there is still daylight there." But here..."Raising his head with difficulty, Ou Chuyang looked at the sky above his head that was covered by black mist, and he didn't notice the blue color that should be there.

"It's probably the worst natural area on the continent. Beside her, Xu Jie'er, who was also in the same posture as Ou Chuyang, sighed, but her voice was low and unheard, if it weren't for Ou Chuyang's proximity, she wouldn't have been able to hear what Xu Jie'er said.

Ou Chuyang looked at Xu Jie'er, who was on guard all over her body and didn't even look at herself when she spoke, and asked, "You guys should have some understanding of the environment here, why haven't I seen Ugan until now?"

"Don't worry, that's what should be ahead. However, there's a level 3 Wind Wolf there, so we need to be careful. Xu Jie'er hadn't answered yet, but Dongfang Xue behind Ou Chuyang spoke.

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang nodded, then turned his head cautiously, looked at Dongfang Xue and Xiao Ling'er beside her, and asked, "Where did Owen go?" Seeing that there was no Owen among the five people in the party, Ou Chuyang subconsciously asked.

He went to check the surroundings. Feeling Ou Chuyang's eyes, Dongfang Xue replied.

"I can't stand it, when will it take to keep looking at it like this? I'm going to kill it. While waiting, Xiao Ling'er suddenly complained, and then, her figure lying on the ground was about to rise. Obviously, this girl who is cold on the outside, but hot on the inside, has begun to lose the unbearable smell around her, and is about to take action.

"Calm down. Seeing Xiao Ling'er's figure about to move, Dongfang Xue pressed on the former's shoulder and hurriedly stopped: "Have you forgotten, the last time we came, wasn't it because a student alarmed a wind wolf, how many came in the end? If it weren't for Owen's sister, I'm afraid we would have been buried in the Dark Mountain Range that time."

Listening to Dongfang Xue's persuasion, Xiao Ling'er's imminent body finally had no next move, and lay on the ground steadily, but the disgust on her delicate cheeks did not decrease by half a point.

At this time, Xu Jie'er also moved over slowly, looked at Xiao Ling'er and said, "Xue'er is right, don't worry, wait until Owen comes back." ”
