Chapter 220: Spirit Fruit Demon Beast
Chapter 220: Spirit Fruit Demon Beast
"Huh?" Shen Shi was taken aback, glanced at Zhong Qingzhu in some surprise, just wanted to ask a question, but then seemed to think of something, looked down, and saw the corpse of the dead remnant gold bear lying on the ground, and the blood flowing from the wound had stained the surrounding land. The original purple-black soil looked more and more strange at the moment, deep and dark, and the red blood was constantly seeping into the soil, as if there was a hungry demon swallowing it under the land, and at the same time, the originally thin strange aura in the surrounding forest suddenly became a little stronger.
Shen Shi frowned, gently pulled Zhong Qingzhu, and said, "It's not good to stay here for a long time, let's go out first, and talk slowly on the way." ”
Zhong Qinglu glanced at the situation underground, nodded, the two cleaned up a little, and left here, Xiao Hei followed behind them, and took one last look back when leaving this glade, but when its gaze swept over the blood-soaked and blackened dirt land, it quickly showed a trace of disgust, and then strode towards Shen Shi without looking back.
After walking a little outside the woods, a little farther away from the place just now, the disgusting and boring breath faded and made people feel a lot more comfortable. Shen Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he arrived here, and said to Zhong Qingzhu beside him: "Qingzhu, where are you going to Black Crow Ridge just now?"
Zhong Qingzhu thought about it, but he was a little cautious, and after carefully looking around to make sure that there was no one, he said softly to Shen Shi: "This Black Crow Ridge has a complex terrain, vast mountains, and a lot of demon beasts and spirit grass, but in general, the grade is not too high, and it is generally only at the third order. Like the red Buddha cia we got earlier, it is quite a good harvest here in Black Crow Ridge. Of course, higher-level spirit grasses and demon beasts are not absent, but they are very rare, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they can be encountered but not sought. ”
Shen Shi frowned, then raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Zhong Qingzhu, and said with a little surprise: "How do you know so much about Black Crow Ridge?" After a pause, his heart moved slightly, and he looked at her and said, "Could it be that you have been here before?"
Zhong Qingzhu smiled and said, "Yes." ”
Shen Shi suddenly realized, thinking that it was no wonder that she was so familiar with the situation here, and at the same time, she heard Zhong Qingzhu say to him: "I have been here several times in the past when I came to the Hundred Mountains Realm to practice, and during one of my expeditions, I accidentally discovered a secret cave, guess what's inside?"
Shen Shi glanced at Zhong Qingzhu's expression, and saw a hint of a smile on her fair and beautiful face, as if she had a little tenderness that she had never seen before, her heart beat a little, and she subconsciously looked away slightly, but she still thought about it in her heart, and after a while, she took a little temptation and said, "Is it a rare and rare high-grade spirit grass?" No, if it is just a spirit grass, you must have taken it away, and it will not remain in its place. In this way, could it be a high-level demon beast with a demon pill?"
High-grade spirit grass, high-level demon beasts, no matter which one of them is, is an existence that can make the monk's heart flutter, and specifically in this Lingxiao Sect's Hundred Mountains Realm trial, no matter which one of them is, if it can be obtained, it will definitely stand out among the many trial disciples. You must know that the spiritual material resources of the cultivation realm have always been heavy on quality rather than quantity, and high-level spiritual materials are precious and rare, and examples of one to a hundred, one to a thousand can be seen everywhere, and even sometimes when encountering extremely precious heavenly and earthly treasures, one to ten thousand is priceless.
So when Shen Shi heard this, he thought of Zhong Qingzhu's expression again, and couldn't help but think about it.
Zhong Qingzhu smiled slightly, looked at him quietly, and then said softly: "Actually, it's both." ”
Shen Shi was startled, and said in a lost voice: "What?"
Zhong Qingzhu seemed to have anticipated Shen Shi's reaction, her face did not show any strange expression, she just smiled and looked at the man in front of her, for a moment, she suddenly thought of the days in the underground cave where he and herself were as silent and desperate as death a long time ago.
The tenderness in her eyes was a little more, and she said, "After I saw that cave that day, I found that there was a 'Heavenly Mist Vermilion Fruit' growing in the depths of this cave during my investigation. ”
Shen Shi's body was shocked, and he exclaimed: "Tianqi Zhuguo, that is the extremely precious elixir of the sixth grade!"
Zhong Qingzhu nodded and said, "Exactly, but in addition, there is an extremely powerful 'Iron Winged Black Scorpion' in that cave." ”
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, but he gasped and said, "Fifth-order demon beast, iron-winged black scorpion?"
Zhong Qingzhu also had a layer of melancholy on his face, and said with his chin bowed: "Exactly." When I found them that day, the Iron-Winged Black Scorpion was guarding the side of the Heavenly Mist Zhuguo, and I couldn't lure it away even if I tried my best, and the Iron-Winged Black Scorpion itself was also a fifth-order demon beast that had formed a demon pill, so I had no chance of winning at all. In fact, if it weren't for the iron-winged black scorpion that day that refused to stay too far away from the Tianqi Zhuguo, I was afraid that it would be difficult to say whether I could escape with my life, in short, in the end, I could only have no choice but to retreat. ”
Shen Shi's face changed, he glanced at her, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "The cave you said shouldn't be around here, isn't it in the most dangerous area of the Black Crow Ridge?"
Zhong Qingzhu lowered his head slightly, and after being silent for a moment, he nodded lightly.
Shen Shi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he still wanted to say something, and after a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Qingzhu, why do you have to take such a big risk alone, in case, in case ......"
In the latter words, he shook his head and kept silent, but Zhong Qingzhu rolled his eyes, raised his eyes and stared at him deeply, and even his voice seemed to be a little ethereal, and he said softly: "What do you want to say, what if I do?"
Shen Shi shook his head and said, "In such a wild and dangerous place, it is too dangerous for you to come alone, if you really encounter any powerful demon beasts or poisonous dangerous places, there is not even a person to help you." Best...... It's better to find a companion or two, or at least one to take care of. ”
Zhong Qingzhu lowered his eyes slightly, and said softly: "But I can't imagine that on Jinhong Mountain, there is the kind of person I can entrust my life with." ”
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but his heart immediately moved, but he thought of chatting with Zhong Qingzhu again the day before yesterday, and the two half-jokingly said an agreement, if there is a chance in the future, they will come together to explore and travel to the Hundred Mountains Realm.
At that time, she smiled and nodded gently, as if she did not hesitate, and finally said the word "good".
Is there no one who can entrust his life......
Shen Shi was at a loss for a moment in his heart, and subconsciously looked up at her, only to see Zhong Qingzhu standing quietly beside him, his bright and clear eyes looking at him quietly.
The bright sky light in the forest fell on her face, which had never been so gentle and beautiful, as if reflecting a dazzling halo, just like the dazzling rainbow on the top of the legendary golden rainbow mountain, and she was the beautiful woman in the rainbow.
Shen Shi's heart shook suddenly, and at this moment he seemed to suddenly feel something, and there was a sudden paleness on his face.
Zhong Qingzhu, on the other hand, smiled slightly, his eyes were gentle but without the slightest remorse, staring at him, with a faint satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth.

Liuyun City, the mansion of the Xu family.
When the sun was on the third pole, Liuyun City was already a prosperous and noisy scene, but in the Xu family, which has been inherited for many years, the courtyard is deep, but it seems to be isolated from the hustle and bustle outside, and it seems to be a little quiet.
In the Xiyuan wing, in a somewhat dim room, Ling Chunni was still lying on the bed, and the warm bedding seemed to have infinite magic, which made her reluctant to get up, and even her eyes were so sleepy that she was a little reluctant to open them.
In a shadow, on her plump chest, the strange black crystal clinged to her skin, and a little silver light slowly rotated and flickered on the surface of the black crystal, some like stars in the night, and like strange eyes, quietly peeking into the world outside the crystal.
"Knock knock, knock knock. ”
Suddenly, a loud knock came from the door, breaking the silence in the room, and the silver light on the black crystal instantly dimmed a lot, and Ling Chunni seemed to be startled when he looked at it, and a spirit sat up from the bed.
Outside the door, a pleasant and cheerful girl's laughter came, and said, "Sister Chunni, I'm Snow Shadow, I'm coming to see you, open the door quickly." ”
Ling Chunni sat in the dim shadows for a moment, as if he had woken up from that trace of fatigue, and then quickly got out of bed, tidied up his clothes a little, and then went over to open the door, and at the same time opened the window next to him.
Bright light shone into the room through the doors and windows, dispelling the originally dim atmosphere and brightening up the whole room. At a young age, she had already seen the beautiful Xu Xueying for the first time, walked in with a smile, and said to Ling Chunni: "Sister, it's so late, why haven't you gotten up yet?"
Ling Chunni's cheeks were slightly red, a little embarrassed, he stuck out his tongue lightly, and said with a smile: "I'...... I don't know why, I've been very sleepy lately, and I don't want to get up all the time, so that my sister can make you smile. ”
Saying that, Xu Xueying sat down at the round table in the room first, and then freshened up a little before coming over.
Although she looked a little hurried, and she didn't dress up seriously, but when Ling Chunni sat in front of Xu Xueying, Xu Xueying was still shocked, the woman in front of her seemed to be charming and beautiful from the bones deep in her body, and she seemed to have a charming power without any decoration, almost not like a mortal, and the charm seemed to be everywhere, even if Xu Xueying herself was a woman and only in her early teens, she was a little stunned at this moment, and God took it.
Ling Chunni saw that Xu Xueying didn't speak for a long time, just looked at herself in a daze, couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, with a little amusement, reached over and gently twisted her white and tender little cheeks, and said with a smile: "What are you doing in a daze?"
Xu Xueying's body trembled, as if she had just woken up, she was surprised and a little shy for no reason, her cheeks were a little flushed, and she said a little embarrassedly: "Well, sister, you are so beautiful, even if I am a woman, I am stunned." ”
Ling Chunni smiled, these days she has temporarily lived in the Xu family, only Xu Xueying is good friends with her on weekdays, and often comes to chat with her, she is the best person to have a good relationship with her here, and she also loves this smart and beautiful little girl very much. At this moment, looking at Xue Ying's beautiful little face that was white and red and slightly shy, her heart was also soft, and she couldn't help but smile and hugged her, and suddenly kissed Xu Xueying's cheek, with a little bit of narrowness, and said with a smile:
"Good sister, you are also so beautiful, but I don't know which man will be lucky enough to be with you for a lifetime. ”
