Chapter 25: Danger Comes
On the eve of departure, a person suddenly visited, which really made Zhang Xu make up his mind to lead the team to Lonely Mountain. Because he knew he had to go.
"Ah Xi, who is looking for me?" Zhang Xu asked with a smile, and when he was about to go to bed, Xiao Lori suddenly came in from outside, took Zhang Xu's hand and walked out.
"Hee-hee, you'll know when you get there. Little Lori smiled as if she had encountered a happy event, looking at the smile on her face, Zhang Xu understood something.
Less than half a mile out of the camp, after a big tree, Zhang Xu really saw the old guy Xiong Xian.
"It turned out to be Elder Xiong, it's been a long time. For the sake of the sky-destroying crossbow that this guy gave himself, Zhang Xu gave a big smile.
"Master," Xiong Xian arched his hand, "The old man came this time to tell the head to be careful when going to Gushan." ”
"Oh, can't you not go? I heard that Elder Xiong is now a celebrity next to the big shopkeeper, why don't you talk to the big shopkeeper and avoid the errand of our Iron Sword Gate. ”
Xiong Xian shook his head: "Master, we don't have to go around in circles, let's be honest, the big shopkeeper is very annoyed about the assassin, Lao Zhu and I begged each other hard, and he promised not to blame the past, so we can't say anything more." ”
Zhang Xu's heart tightened, but he was still discovered......
"In this way, the big shopkeeper sent my Iron Sword Sect to Lonely Mountain to punish me for waiting?" Zhang Xu said lightly.
"It can't be said that punishment, the lonely mountain is the only commanding height in the grassland, it is extremely important for the development, and someone must go there. The Iron Sword Gate has a large number of people, but the good and the bad are mixed, and it is the best person to go to the Lonely Mountain. Xiong Xian frowned.
Little Lori also heard something, her little face showed worry, and she looked at Xiong Xian expectantly and said, "Elder Xiong, are you going with us?"
Xiong Xian shook his head: "I'm afraid not, Lao Zhu and I are now employed by the Chamber of Commerce, and we can't return to the Iron Sword Gate before the hunt is over." I'm here to tell the boss that you must be careful when you go to Gushan and pay attention to your own safety. Obtaining merit is secondary, as long as you are alive, my Iron Sword Sect will have hope. “
......
It's a wild grassland, where the grass reaches knee-high and colorful wildflowers dot the green landscape.
It is a grassland full of life, with countless butterflies flying among the flowers, shrubs and hares everywhere in the meadows, hundreds of yellow sheep whistling through the meadows, and wild horses faintly gliding in the distance.
Walking on the grass and smelling the fragrance of flowers and plants made the monks from the Flying Yellow Realm feel particularly relaxed. The beauty of such a pristine state is not often seen in the overcrowded Flying Yellow Realm.
However, such a beautiful scenery, Tiejianmen and his party had no intention of appreciating it, and everyone was tense, as if walking on the grassland facing a great enemy.
Yesterday's battle made everyone's hearts palpitate, the crazy demon beast was too dangerous, and although the monks of the Flying Yellow Realm won the victory, they also suffered a lot of losses. Not to mention the two Jindan were seriously injured, and the monks were also killed and injured more than two hundred. At that time, the Iron Sword Gate was attacked by a large group of fierce wolves, and although he killed one hundred and ten fierce wolves, he also killed and injured nearly twenty people.
And now the Iron Sword Gate and his party are walking alone on the empty grassland, not knowing what danger awaits them in front of them, and everyone can't help but feel a sense of fear in their hearts.
Maybe it was yesterday's battle, the nearby demon beasts were scared away, and along the way, nothing happened in the first half of the journey, and everyone's hearts gradually settled down.
Thinking about it, even the Demon King Flying Snake was cut off by Li Pingbo's big shopkeeper, and the other demon beasts and demon cultivators fought and killed hundreds, I'm afraid that these demon beasts had already been killed, how could they dare to attack the huge team of nearly two hundred people?
At present, there are still six foundation building monks in the Iron Sword Gate, more than forty high-level Qi cultivation monks, and the rest are all middle-level Qi training, and their strength is not strong, as long as they don't encounter a powerful demon beast like the flying snake, ordinary demon beasts should be enough to deal with it.
Thinking like this, everyone's hearts gradually relaxed, and they began to be in the mood to shoot rabbits and sheep and collect spiritual grass on the grassland.
There are a lot of strange flowers and plants in the wild grassland, and from time to time you can find some low-level spirit grass, such as clover, which is a taste of spirit grass for refining the spirit pill, and the price in the Feihuang realm is one hundred low-grade spirit stones, although the price is not very high, but looking at this vast grassland, it will hardly take long to see one, which is almost the same as picking up spirit stones. When the mood was relaxed, the monks began to be in the mood to pick spiritual grass.
And among the grasses, from time to time, you can also find second-order spirit grasses such as Broken Love Flowers, each plant is worth a spirit stone, and every time one is collected, the monk will let out an excited cry.
"Haha, the entire grassland is ours, and we will make a fortune just by picking spiritual grass!" a monk exclaimed excitedly.
"That's it, the demon beasts on this grassland can't be hidden at all, not to mention the demon beasts, there are so many spiritual flowers and plants, haha, I'm really rich!"
"Brother Boss, look, clover!" Little Lori shouted as she held a freshly picked spirit grass in her hand.
Looking at the elated little Lori, Zhang Xu frowned slightly.
"What's the matter, little master?" asked Su Man in surprise, she saw Zhang Xu's expression.
"It's too quiet. Zhang Xu said softly.
"Too quiet?"
Zhang Xu nodded, his tone was a little heavy: "This is the beast spirit world, a place full of demon birds and monsters, how dangerous it was when we first came here yesterday when we faced the attack of thousands of demon beasts?
"You mean?" said Suman's tone.
"The covenant may seem calm, but there may be great danger. Zhang Xu said in a solemn tone, "You go and call your senior brother and them." ”
For some reason, when Zhang Xu felt some inexplicable palpitations in the calm of the grassland, he looked at the messy team of scattered cultivators, each busy looking for and picking spirit grass to catch sheep and rabbits, Zhang Xu even felt a sense of fear.
This is an otherworldly hunt, not a spring!
However, just as Ma Chuang and the other monks who were also the captains of the teams were rushing here, suddenly, a monk pointed to the sky and let out an exclamation.
"Look, what's that?"
Everyone looked at the sky, and they saw that in the direction of the lonely mountain, a large group of big birds covered the sky and were flying towards this side.
"It looks like a vulture!" cried the discerning monk.
By this time, most of the monks had already seen clearly that the big birds flying towards this place were very large, and their wings were more than ten zhang wide, and they were not eagles?
However, in the Flying Yellow Realm, the Grey Feather Eagle has been domesticated into the mounts of the monks, and in this Otherworld, this Eagle Eagle is an out-and-out demon bird!
"Everyone be careful!" Zhang Xu shouted, raised the turtle spirit shield and put it in front of him, and raised the sky-destroying crossbow in his right hand.
