Chapter 35: Convergence

This guy must have encountered a pack of bubble rats.

Hearing Duanmu Ze's scream, Chen Xi was not surprised at all, because just a hundred zhang in front of him, there was a soft swamp, and a group of rat monsters the size of a fist lived under the ground.

The bubble rat walks underground, coming and going like the wind, its body is like a blowing bubble, and its body is full of foul-smelling green venom, although it is not very toxic, but when sprayed on people, the smell can definitely make people maddened.

What's especially important is that the bubble rat is very short-tempered, and when it encounters a strange enemy, these disgusting and ugly little things will collectively choose to explode themselves, and the miserable green liquid that explodes from the belly is like a rainstorm, overwhelming, and there is no way to hide.

"This ......"

When he saw Duanmu Ze, Du Qingxi couldn't believe his eyes, only to see that he seemed to have been thrown into a dye vat and soaked, with hair, skin, and clothes as white as snow...... They were all coated in a miserable green liquid, and they looked like an ugly toad demon.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to imagine that the person in front of you was the handsome and dashing Duanmuze in white clothes.

A gust of wind blew, and a disgusting fishy stench instantly filled every corner of the space.

"It's disgusting. Song Lin was so sleepy by the stench in the air that he covered his nose and retreated.

"He's not in danger, is he?" Du Qingxi asked with a frown.

Chen Xi shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a stinky spot." ”

Vomit~

Du Qingxi was so smoked that he almost vomited, and immediately left here far away without hesitation, and said in his mouth: "Duanmu, you quickly change your clothes and leave here." ”

"You ...... How can this be!"

Duanmu Ze's eyes widened, and he looked at Du Qingxi and Song Lin who were far away in despair, and there was a thick pathos in his voice, like an abandoned resentful woman.

"Duanmu Gongzi, I have already reminded you just now, but you don't listen...... Alas, you better hurry up and change your clothes, it really stinks. Chen Xi shook his head and turned to leave.

Duanmu Ze was stunned for a moment as if he had been struck by lightning, and let out a low roar of grief and indignation from his mouth.

Chen Xi, you definitely did it on purpose, on purpose!

I must kill you!

Duanmu Ze gasped for breath in anger, but as soon as he smelled the stench on his body, he almost fainted, and there was a burst of anger in his heart, completely hating Chen Xi to the bone.

When Duanmu Ze reappeared, he had already returned to his white-clothed appearance, but his face was gloomy as water, staring at Chen Xi's gaze, as if he wanted to kill.

"It seems that I have offended this guy miserably, but as long as Du Qingxi is here, he must not dare to attack him secretly. ”

Chen Xi shook his head, ignored Duanmu Ze's gaze, turned around and walked forward.

Along the way, Duanmuze was silent, and under the leadership of Chen Xi, there were no more accidents.

Du Qingxi followed behind, but the surprise in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he would encounter some powerful demon beasts more than once along the way, but Chen Xi seemed to be a prophet, and led the team to carefully bypass it, and every time there was no danger.

She had to admit that she did underestimate Chen Xi, because even she occasionally found it difficult to find those demon beasts that were extremely good at concealment.

And in Duanmu Ze's heart, Chen Xi's performance of knowing the surrounding environment inside out made him think more and more that everything before was deliberately made ugly by Chen Xi, and for a while, his hatred for Chen Xi was simply to the point that it was difficult to calm down, if it weren't for Du Qingxi's presence, he would definitely kill Chen Xi at the first time.

Near dawn, Chen Xi and the others finally passed through the forest that seemed to be a natural barrier, entered the Nanban Forbidden Land, and appeared in front of a huge lake.

This boundless lake is called Linggang Lake, and Chen Xi naturally recognizes that the first innate realm demon he killed with his own hands was the double-headed purple rhinoceros that had been practicing for more than 2,000 years in the middle of the lake.

At this moment, there are no less than tens of thousands of monks gathered next to Linggang Lake, and there are dense heads of people everywhere in sight, and noisy conversations are sounding one after another, which seems to be extremely lively.

"The entrance to the Nanban Underworld Realm can't be above Linggang Lake, right?" Chen Xi looked at the crowd in the distance, feeling a little surprised.

"You don't know?" Du Qingxi seemed to be more surprised than Chen Xi.

Chen Xi shook his head: "I have never participated in the Nanban Netherworld Trial, and I have never paid attention to the news in this regard. ”

"Ha, as a disciple of Songyan City, you haven't even participated in the Nanban Netherworld Trial, you are really bad enough. Duanmuze interjected on the side, his tone revealing strong disdain.

Chen Xi glanced at this product and said lightly: "Although I have never entered the Nanban Underworld, I know how to go in the Nanban Mountains and Forests. ”

How to walk in the Nanban Mountains and Forests......

Duanmu Ze was stunned, thinking of the ice-tailed poisonous bee and bubble mouse he encountered before, as if the scar on his heart had been revealed, his face instantly became extremely gloomy, and he said word by word: "I hope your mouth is as powerful as your cultivation, don't die in the Nanban Underworld." ”

This sentence is equivalent to completely tearing your face with Chen Xi.

Du Qingxi frowned and glanced at the two of them, and said coldly: "Enough! If you are still like this when you enter the Nanban Underworld, please leave now!"

Duanmuze pursed his lips and said no more, obviously afraid that Du Qingxi would really drive him away.

Chen Xi couldn't wait to leave, but when he saw Du Qingxi's extremely cold expression, he remembered the three-year contract signed with her, but he couldn't open this mouth for a long time.

The group quickened their pace, and dozens of minutes later, they appeared in the open space by Linggang Lake.

After getting closer, Chen Xi found that most of these monks were gathered together in groups of three or five, holding swords in their arms, and their expressions were alert. Obviously, in this dangerous Southern Barbarian Forbidden Land, although they are all competitors, in order to prevent those powerful demon beasts from rushing out, everyone has gathered together.

After all, the Nanban Underworld has not yet appeared, and it is not the time to tear your face and snatch the evil beads.

The appearance of Chen Xi and his party attracted the attention of most of the people around. The reason is very simple, Duanmu Ze, who is fluttering in white, is like a banner when he goes to that station, as long as he has been a monk in Longyuan City, how can he not recognize this young man with excellent demeanor as Duanmu Ze, a young generation leader from the Duanmu family?

"It turned out to be Duanmu Gongzi!"

"Ah, Duanmu Gongzi is here too!"

"Duanmu Gongzi, I didn't expect to see you here!"

......

Along the way, the greetings to Duanmu Ze were endless, and the eyes that were still slightly hostile to Chen Xi and his party shrank back, the Duanmu family is so famous, and it can be regarded as a behemoth in the entire southern Xinjiang, and ordinary monks don't have the courage to provoke.

At this time, Duanmu Ze showed the usual smile on his face again, with enough pride in his reserve, with the dazzling halo above his head, the group of four people chose an excellent position very smoothly.

Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, reputation alone can play such a big role, and those ancient families can survive to this day, it is indeed not in vain.

After being sought after by everyone around him, Duanmu Ze's mood seemed to be much better, he glanced at Chen Xi who was sitting on the ground, frowned, and said, "Hey, you are too unqualified as a cook, didn't you see everyone walking all night?"

Chen Xi directly ignored this guy and looked at Du Qingxi: "Do you need to eat something?"

Du Qingxi thought about it and nodded. When she came out of the forest, she wore a black veil on her head that could block the spied eyes of the divine spirit, obscuring her face and making it impossible to see her expression.

Only then did Chen Xi get up, take out some ingredients from the storage ring, raise the spiritual fire, and start cooking.

This storage ring was handed over to him by Du Qingxi when he left Qingxi Restaurant, there is enough space in it, and the piled up ingredients are like piles of hills, if you save some food, it is enough for several people to eat for two or three years.

Ignored by Chen Xi, Duanmu Ze didn't care at all, being able to make Chen Xi cook meals in front of everyone had already achieved his goal.

He wants everyone to know that Chen Xi is just a lowly cook who follows him, not a friend who can be made on the surface as he can be equal.

At this time, seeing Chen Xi cooking the meal, Duanmuze couldn't help but start looking forward to it, this guy's mood at this time must be very uncomfortable, right?

However, to Duanmuze's disappointment, although there were surprise, doubt, abruptness, and disdain from time to time, Chen Xi, who was the person concerned, had never changed his expression from beginning to end.

Soon, a pot of Baizhen porridge made of hundreds of spiritual fruits mixed with five grains and spiritual grains was boiled, and the tempting aroma of the porridge with the smell of fresh fruit and wood wafted around.

Gollum ~ Gollum ~

There was a sound of stomach screaming all around, most of the monks here are around the innate realm, and they can't survive like the monks of Zifu, and they also carry dry food when they come here, but when they smell the delicious porridge that comes out of the pot, they don't salivate?

"Duanmu Gongzi is really very comparable, and he also takes a spirit chef with him when he travels, and this kind of quality of life is really enviable. ”

"That's not it, just smelling the porridge, you definitely know that the young man must at least have the level of a chef of Erye Ling!"

......

When Duanmu Ze heard this, his heart became more and more comfortable, and he picked up a white tablecloth to cover his legs with a reserved expression, and then ordered: "Give me a bowl of porridge." ”

Chen Xi was drinking a bowl of porridge, and replied vaguely when he heard the words: "It's gone." ”

It's really gone, I put a bowl for Du Qingxi, a bowl for myself, and a big bowl for Song Lin, who was reincarnated like a starving ghost, and the bottom of the pot has been scraped clean.

Duanmuze looked down at the haode dinner cloth prepared on his lap, and then at the empty rice pot, his expression changed uncertainly, and it was very exciting.

"Well, this porridge is delicious, and it is rare that it has a different taste, not inferior to the chief spirit chef of my family. Song Lin gulped down the porridge, looking intoxicated and satisfied, and from time to time he made a piercing sound.

"This kind of porridge must have been groped out by itself, the taste is sweet and soft and glutinous, very different, and the aura is also condensed but not dispersed, pure and continuous, it is indeed good. Du Qingxi commented.

Seeing that the two of them didn't mean to help themselves at all, but instead commented on the taste of Baizhen porridge with relish, Duanmu Ze's face became more and more difficult to look at.

"Huh, that's ......."

At this moment, there was a stirring in the crowd, and all eyes were looking into the distance.

Du Qingxi looked up, then withdrew his gaze, and said calmly: "It turned out to be the girl from the Su family, I knew that she would not miss this opportunity." ”

The Su family?

Chen Xi's heart suddenly shook violently, and Huo Ran raised his head.
