Text: Chapter 26 Cutting the Crane

As soon as they entered the Qianyuan Gorge, the scene was no different from the ordinary jungle, and the two of them went deeper, the terrain became strange and complicated, and the vegetation became more dense. The grass and trees at the entrance are all green, but inside, there are plants of various colors.

The two of them leaned against a big red tree to eat dry food, and Kazekawa asked, "Why do you stop here to rest?" I think the red tree is too eye-catching. Shi Juezhao: "I saw that you were very interested in this tree, so I stopped here, in fact, this is just an ordinary tree, but the color is red!" Feng Chuan listened, climbed up the tree a few times, looked around and said to Shi Juezhao: "It is indeed an ordinary tree, but in front of you, there is a leopard peeping at us." After hearing this, Shi Jue also climbed the tree and looked at Feng Chuan's gaze, only to see a leopard's head looking at him behind a tree. The leopard saw Feng Chuan and Shi Juezhao, both of whom were looking at it and didn't move, still watching and watching.

Seeing this, Shi Jue said: "We should have met the hunting team of the Qu family, and the hunting team of the Qu family will bring two leopards as eyes and ears every time. Feng Chuan: "Then what should we do?" Shi Juezhao: "The Qu family's hunting team entered the Qianyuan Gorge just for some valuable treasures, we don't provoke them, let's leave now, so we can reach the destination early." ”

Green moss, fiery trees, and white grass begin to glow, reflecting the beauty of the jungle. With a "boom", a lizard on the trunk swallowed a small dark green snake. Feng Chuan grabbed Shi Jue Zhao, who was moving forward, Shi Jue Zhao turned his head and said: "Why, you want to ask me how that tree shines, right, you have a lot of questions!" Feng Chuan didn't reply, his finger pointed ahead, Shi Jue Zhao turned his head back and glanced at Feng Chuan and said, "A tree, what's so beautiful." The sound of a heavy object moving on the fallen leaves came, and the master turned his head to make a sword.

A bucket-thick python, but pierced through the jaw by a sword, the tip of which peeked out of the top of its head. Shi Juezhao stabbed out a sword, but the sword was not drawn, and he immediately shouted "Run". Feng Chuan heard it and immediately ran, Shi Jue Zhao followed closely behind Feng Chuan, the snake was stabbed to the point, did not die immediately, only to see the python's body strangely twisted, the huge snake tail flung everywhere, kept hitting the trunk, the ground, and made a rumbling sound.

Shi Juezhao and Feng Chuan hid a few feet away, until the sound of the python was gone, and the two of them passed. The python's corpse lay on the ground, surrounded by a mess, and it took a lot of effort for the master to find his sword from the pile of rotting leaves.

The two of them continued to walk, and all the way to a thorny forest without danger, wisps of fragrance filled the air. Shi Juezhao: "Take an antidote, this fragrance is emitted by the fruit on the thorns, after smelling for a long time, you will be desperate to pick the fruit, and those thorns will puncture your skin, but you will not feel the pain, and soon you will run out of blood and die!" Feng Chuan: "It turns out that the Lost God Fragrant Fruit is here, let's pick some fruit and sell it back to Linyuan Town!" "Shi Juezhao: "The Lost God Fragrant Fruit is mainly used to relieve pain, it is not worth much, and the cost of collecting is too great, many medicine pickers don't like it." If you are short of money, it is worth some money to peel off the skin of the python I killed on the way back and take it to Linyuan Town. Feng Chuan: "There are swarms of insects and beasts here, and the python has probably been devoured by the insects and beasts so long ago that there are no bones left!" ”

As soon as the glowing plant appeared, Shi Juezhao and Feng Chuan could no longer distinguish between day and night, and after Feng Chuan and they rested twice, the crane that Shi Jue Zhao said appeared in Feng Chuan's eyes. Seeing that the crane raised its head and was more than a foot taller than himself, Feng Chuan said, "That crane is too big, isn't it?" Watching the crane easily catch a small snake from the grass and swallow it, Feng Chuan sighed in his heart that the crane's beak was like the sword of Shi Juezhao. Shi Jue watched the crane swallow the snake and said, "The crane is not afraid of poison, and many insects and beasts in this abyss gorge have strong resistance to poison. ”

It wasn't until they became familiar with some of the crane's habits that Feng Chuan and Shijizhao decided to do it, and as soon as the crane left the nest, the two of them crossed the lake and ran to the big rock where the crane's nest was located.

As soon as he stepped on the boulder, Shi Juezhao said, "Fengchuan, you have a treasure." When Kazekawa looked at it, he saw a fruit on a small tree a foot high, half the size of a fist, oval, with a thick shell like crystal on the outside, and a flowing fiery red liquid at the core. Feng Chuan didn't know what this was, so he asked Shi Juezhao: "What is this?" Shi Juezhao: "This is the Jade Shell Fire Heart Fruit, it has a price, there is no market, you take it to the Qu family, the Qu family will definitely give you a satisfactory reward, of course, we still have to kill the crane first." Kazekawa: "Hearing you say this, this fruit belongs to me." Shi Juezhao: "Didn't I say before, I just want that crane." Kazekawa: "Okay." ”

Shijue slowly sank into the water, and Kazekawa sat alone on the stone, waiting for the crane's return. The figure of the crane appeared in Fengchuan's eyes, and a crane roared, like gold and iron striking each other.

The crane fluttered its wings and landed in front of Kazekawa, taking two steps forward like a swordsman, and Kazekawa moved back with one foot, but his eyes were focused on the crane's head. Feng Chuan's backward foot had not yet landed, and with a "snort", the crane's beak pierced Feng Chuan like a fast sword, and he didn't see Feng Chuan move, so he moved the distance of more than a foot backward out of thin air and avoided the crane beak.

The water was splashing, and the crane wanted to spread its wings and take off, but a black net fell from the sky and landed on the crane, and then Fengchuan stepped on the ground and quickly retreated, falling straight into the lake.

The net fell on the crane, and the crane kept flapping its wings but could not fly. A sword came from behind the crane and pierced the crane's slender neck.

Feng Chuan watched the crane fall on the water before returning to the stone, and saw that Shi Juezhao was removing the net from the crane's corpse and asked, "When will you return to Linyuan Town?" Shi Juezhao: "Wait for about two more days to go back, I will be here during this time, don't come and disturb me." Kazekawa: "Okay, then I'll wait for you around here." ”

The crane's nest is a pile of branches, after the crane died, Feng Chuan sat on the pile of branches to rest, suddenly Feng Chuan found that there was a touch of green between the dry branches, Feng Chuan took out the green thing to see, it was a jade hairpin, the jade hairpin has been worn in many places, but the jade hairpin looks green and transparent, Feng Chuan thinks it is good, so he put it away. Found a jade hairpin, and then the crane's nest was turned over by Feng Chuan, Feng Chuan had a finger-sized piece of jasper in his hand, looking at the green in the jasper in his hand slowly flowing, Feng Chuan took a deep breath, and felt into the jasper.

One by one, words appeared in Feng Chuan's mind, and they converged into a "Heart of Grass and Trees" exercise, and in Feng Chuan's hands, the green in the jasper no longer flowed.
