No, what should be the most surprising thing should be the fact that Ji Ran can actually come here alive, right? Mo Chong was shocked, and Ji Ran and the two had already fallen to the lake. I only heard the bald old man say: "Well!?not quite right! There seems to be traces of a fight here!" The traces of the fight that the bald old man said were naturally left by Mo Chong's spell just now in order to break free from the shackles of the water-dissolving beast. As for the water-dissolved beast, it has long since re-hidden in the lake.

Ji Ran nodded and said, "I found out too." Moreover, these traces of the fight seem to be very new, and the time for the fight has definitely not exceeded half a day......" Ji Ran was halfway through his words, and suddenly stopped abruptly and became dumbfounded.

"What did Brother Ji find!?" The bald old man was startled when he saw this, and immediately spoke in a low voice, looking around vigilantly as he spoke.

"Haha!" Ji Ran laughed at first, and then stretched out his hand, pointed to the lake not far away, and said, "Brother Feng, look, what are those!"

The bald old man looked in the direction of Ji Ran's right hand with some surprise, and immediately became dumbfounded. What Ji Ran was referring to was what Mo Chong took out of Qiankun Na and scattered all over the bottom of the lake.

"This ...... What's going on!?" was shocked for a long time before the bald old man swallowed his saliva and stuttered a little.

Ji Ran said with a smile: "This still needs to be asked, naturally the people who fight here will lose both sides and die together." And their goods were scattered about. ”

The bald old man had gradually calmed down at this time, his eyes flashed when he heard the words, and suddenly his lips moved slightly, and the secret words were transmitted. After Ji Ran listened to the bald old man's words, his expression suddenly froze. Mo Chong didn't know what the two of them were talking about. However, looking at the situation of the two, it is known that it is not good. Hurriedly shrunk his neck. Stomped behind the tree again.

Besides, Ji Ran and the others, after some secret whispering, immediately opened their protective shields, took out magic weapons, and searched along the lake. It seems that they were suspicious of the trap set by someone in the lake, so they began to search for possible traces of monks.

After so many life-and-death battles, Mo Chong was a little confident that he would conceal his aura from a monk of the same rank. Immediately, he just cowered in the dense foliage of the trees, motionless. Sure enough, Ji Ran and the others carefully searched all the way along the lake, and after half a day, the two returned to the lakeside. Except for Mo Chong, there were no traps or anything like that around the lake, and of course they wouldn't have found anything.

"It doesn't seem like a trap. Ji Ran spoke again.

The bald old man said, "It doesn't seem to be." However, there is still one place we haven't checked. ”

Of course, Ji Ran understood what the bald old man was referring to. Immediately, the two turned their attention to the lake again. If there was any ambush that they didn't find, it was in the lake.

"Oh no, there's someone over there!" Ji Ran exclaimed.

Mo Chong had just poked his head out at this time, and he was startled when he heard this. Secretly said: "What, I was discovered!?" Thinking so in his heart, Mo Chong immediately flipped his palm, and the Fire Phoenix Sword was in his hand.

But what happened next was a big surprise. I saw that the bald old man had just looked in the direction that Ji Ran was looking at, but Ji Ran beside him suddenly stabbed the long sword in his hand at the bald old man's neck. At this time, the two were so close, and Ji Ran made a move without warning, only hearing a 'flutter'. The long sword in Ji Ran's hand had already pierced the throat of the bald old man.

The reason for Ji Ran's move is self-evident, naturally he wants to swallow the things scattered at the bottom of the lake alone, but why didn't he wait to confirm whether the lake was safe before starting?

The bald old man's reaction was also fast enough, and at the same time that Ji Ran's long sword pierced his throat, a hideous look flashed on his face, and the five fingers of his right hand suddenly grabbed Ji Ran's chest. Ji Ran hit it and immediately retreated, and he also guarded against the bald old man's deathly counterattack. However, the distance between the two was too close, Ji Ran's long sword stabbed and retracted, and the bald old man's right hand had already grabbed his chest.

"Bang! ”

There was a muffled thud, followed by the sound of bones breaking. Ji Ran's body was actually wearing armor with strong defensive power. The bald old man's grasp not only did not hurt Ji Ran, but caused his finger to be broken because he used it too much.

"Haha! I can't think of ......"

At this time, Ji Ran was naturally very proud, and couldn't help laughing loudly, who knows, his laughter was only halfway through, and the bald old man suddenly 'fluttered' again, and squirted out two black and shining steel needles from his mouth, shooting towards Ji Ran's eyes. At this time, Ji Ran's body method has made him old, and his mana has just been exhausted, and the steel needle of the bald old man is coming quickly. I only heard two 'flutter and flutter' sounds, and two steel needles had been inserted into Ji Ran's eyes.

"Ahh

Ji Ran let out a terrible scream, and he couldn't care about the bald old man anymore, so he hurriedly stretched out his hands to cover his face. He seemed to want to pull out the steel needle, but he didn't dare. Blood was oozing from between the fingers.

The bald old man was already seriously injured and died, and he was able to make a move completely by relying on a breath of resentment in his chest, at this time, when he saw that Ji Ran had been tricked, the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a sneer, and his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but before the words came out, the person had already 'banged' and fell straight to the ground. Blood was gushing from the wound in his throat.

"You...... You old horseman!" Ji Ran, who was in the miserable scream, finally thought of the bald old man again at this time, immediately bent down, touched the ground with both hands, touched the long sword he had just thrown, and immediately took two steps, came to the vicinity of the place where the bald old man fell to the ground, slashed the ground indiscriminately, slashed a few times, and finally cut the body of the bald old man, he was naturally not polite, the long sword in his hand fell quickly, and the body of the bald old man was quickly chopped into minced meat.

At this time, of course, Mo Chong didn't have to stomp anymore. Anyway, Ji Ran couldn't see him anymore. Standing on top of the treetops, Mo Chong looked coldly at Ji Ran in the field. I saw that Ji Ran's face was dripping with blood, both his own and those splashed from the bald old man. And the blood flowing from Ji Ran's injured eyes had suddenly begun to turn black.

The two black steel needles stuck in his eyes turned out to be poisonous. It's just that for some reason, the toxicity is only revealed at this time. Mo Chong was naturally stunned when he saw this. The bald old man had kept these two poisonous needles in his mouth before, and if the poisonous needles were poisonous, how could he avoid that he had not been poisoned first. Is it to take the antidote first? In the case of not knowing when the poison needle will be used. Is it still impossible to take the antidote all year round?

"Whew, whew. ”

Ji Ran, who had chopped up the body of the bald old man, bent over, panting, and suddenly, his complexion changed. Suddenly tore off two pieces of clothing that were not soaked in blood and wrapped them around his fingers, quickly pulled out the two steel needles inserted in his eyes, threw them far away, and then leaned down. Quickly groped for the body of the bald old man. When he touched the storage bag on the bald old man's waist, he immediately opened the bottom of the storage bag, poured the bottom upside down, and grabbed the bottles and cans among the items on the ground.

It seems that Ji Ran also felt that he had been poisoned, and looked for an antidote in the bald old man. One by one, the Dan bottles were constantly grabbed by Ji Ran in his hands, and each Dan bottle was thrown aside as soon as he pulled out the stopper and smelled it. When he smelled the seventh pill bottle, Ji Ran was overjoyed, raised his head, and swallowed the entire jar of pills. Then throw the bottle and sit down cross-legged. Began to refine the medicinal power of the elixir.

Seeing Mo Chong here, he slowly fell from the tree, and came to Ji Ran's side not far step by step, leaned down, and wrapped his right hand with mana. Gently picked up a small black steel needle on the ground. As for the toxicity of energy on steel needles, ink punch is somewhat interested.

After a closer look, Mo Chong quickly saw the clues. The black steel needles were dull, black with blue in color, and a sweet smell emanated from above. A discerning person only needs to look at the color of the black steel needle or smell the smell on it to immediately know that the thing is poisonous. And when the bald old man spewed out the poisonous needle before, the black steel needle was clearly bright.

The method used by the bald old man was far simpler than Mo Chong thought. He just used mana to temporarily wrap the poison needle to prevent the poison on the poison needle from leaking out, and when he hit the enemy and cut off the mana output, the mana protective film outside the poison needle suddenly disappeared, and the poison also seeped out. The method is very simple, but this kind of poison that can be isolated with just one layer of mana, Mo Chong has seen it for the first time.

'What type of poison could it be?'

Mo Chong frowned slightly, took a few steps forward, and picked up an empty pill bottle under his feet. This pill bottle is the pill that Ji Ran took just now. If you know the antidote, you may be able to deduce the origin and variety of the poison. However, when Mo Chong saw the handwriting on the Dan bottle clearly, he sighed lightly. The label on the Dan bottle reads 'Deer Turtle Pill', which is a healing medicine that has a good tonic effect on excessive blood loss, but where is the antidote?

"Who is it!?" Mo Chong's soft sigh naturally couldn't hide from Ji Ran's ears. Ji Ran immediately let out a low cry and jumped up from the ground, and at the same time, the cold light flashed in his hand, and the long sword was in his hand.

Mo Chong's expression was faint, and he said, "Captain Ji, don't you remember when you are down?"

When Ji Ran heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he was shocked: "You...... Are you Mo Chong!?Are you still alive!?" Through Mo Chong's voice and mana breath, Ji Ran recognized Mo Chong.

Mo Chong nodded and said, "Not bad." Under is still alive. According to Zaixia's observations, the insects and beasts that attacked at that time were really overwhelming, and even those who escaped first were almost buried in them, and you were ignorant, how could you escape in such a situation?"

The muscles on Ji Ran's face twitched, and said, "Hmph, it turns out that you have already discovered that there are demon insects coming around, and you only care about running for your life!" Speaking of this, Ji Ran changed his words and said: "The matter has come to this, it is useless to blame you." There are a lot of good things at the bottom of the lake, enough for you and me to divide equally...... No, as long as you send me back to Demon Abyss City safely, I only need thirty percent of the items in it, and the remaining seventy percent will be yours. You haven't forgotten the contract you signed before you left, have you?"

Mo Chong smiled and said, "This matter will naturally not be forgotten in the future." However, Captain Ji doesn't seem to have answered the next question. How did you survive the onslaught of insects and beasts, and where are the others?"

Ji Ran sighed and said, "How to save your life? It's not all about luck. At that time, I was fighting all the way, and I was about to be devoured by the insects, and suddenly I met another group of monks. With these people distracting the demon insects, I was able to get out. As for the others, they are not as lucky as me. ”

Mo Chong nodded and said, "I see. Next, ask Captain Ji to go to the lake to salvage some items. ”

Ji Ran's complexion changed. Mo Chong: This is obviously difficult for a strong man. He couldn't see anything with his eyes now, and although he was able to release his divine sense, it wasn't as fast and accurate as what he could see. What's more, he is now highly poisonous, and although he has already taken the antidote, it is always inappropriate not to refine it in time.

Mo Chong saw that Ji Ran's face was cloudy, and sighed and said, "If Captain Ji is unwilling, ......"

"Okay! I'll go salvage the items! Mo Daoyou will be in charge of guarding to prevent other monks from approaching. Ji Ran understood his situation very well, and without waiting for Mo Chong to finish speaking, he immediately nodded in agreement, and his face returned to normal. As long as Mo Chong didn't kill him, he had a chance. Rather, Mo Chong sent him so with his intentions, as long as he waited until Mo Chong let his guard down......

Looking at Ji Ran, who was gradually walking to the lake, Mo Chong's eyes flashed, and he muttered: "A poisonous person, it should be enough to deal with you, right?" But speaking of which, I really don't know if the poison is effective against water-soluble beasts......

"Mo Daoyou, what are you talking about?" Ji Ran's ear power in the distance was good, and he actually heard Mo Chong's murmuring.

"Oh, nothing. Just let you be careful of the lake, maybe there are some monsters. Mo Chong said lightly.

Ji Ran smiled: "This Mo Daoyou can rest assured. I had been here once before the second half of the month, and there were no monsters in the lake. In a short period of time, there are no monsters to derive. As for the monks, it is even more impossible, because there is ...... in the lake."

Before Ji Ran finished speaking, there was a sudden 'whoosh!' in the lake, and two transparent tentacles stretched out, wrapping Ji Ran's left hand and right foot respectively, and dragging him violently into the lake.

Ji Ran exclaimed, and before he could react, he was already dragged away by the water-dissolving beast, and the next moment, his whole person was trapped in the transparent body of the dissolving beast.

Mo Chong's eyes flashed, no wonder Ji Ran immediately attacked the bald old man after inspecting the lakeside with the bald old man and finding that there were no suspicious traces. It turned out that he had been here half a month ago, and he didn't find any demon beasts in the lake. He probably never imagined that in just half a month, such an uninvited guest would come to the lake. But what about the fact that there could be no monks in the lake? (To be continued......
