"I'm afraid it's not a good thing!"
Someone hurriedly shouted, "Zhang He! Hurry up, there is a monster approaching!"
Zhang He in the purple mist was immersed in the excitement of picking white dragon buds. If he picked more, he could sell the rest to them at a higher price and make a fortune!
Hearing the roar, he was startled and climbed up the rope without caring about anything else.
Money is worth spending if you have a life!
After all, he is a cultivator. Although he cannot fly, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and Zhang He climbs very quickly.
Just when Zhang He was halfway up, a huge black fish suddenly jumped out from the swamp, opened its huge mouth and bit towards Zhang He!
Zhang He tried desperately to climb up, but was almost swallowed by the big black fish!
The big fish failed and fell into the swamp again, disappearing in an instant, returning to calm and without a trace, as if it had never existed.
Seeing this, everyone was also worried and terrified.
"What kind of monster is that! It can move freely in the suffocating swamp?"
"The body in the swamp must have been killed by this fish!"
"There is indeed a great danger..."
"Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Zhang reacted quickly, otherwise it would be over."
Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly said, "It's the Black Swamp Demon Fish... a catfish that specializes in lurking in various swamps and attacking humans."
"Due to the natural factors of the swamp, the movement can be done silently..."
"This Black Swamp Demon Fish has fins growing on its back. It must have been cultivating for at least a hundred years and is extremely ferocious!"
Everyone was terrified after hearing this.
This swamp is too dangerous!
If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.
But White Dragon Sprout is a necessary ingredient for the Foundation Building Pill, and it cannot be without...
A monk named Yang Jie rolled his eyes, went to the tree first to wait for Zhang He, and pulled him up, showing concern for Zhang He.
"Friend Zhang, are you okay? You scared me to death just now."
"Fortunately, I reacted quickly and reminded you..."
Zhang He said gratefully, "Thank you, fellow Taoist. I am very grateful."
He was indeed frightened.
If you get bitten by that big fish, at least you’ll lose your hands and feet and become disabled. It’s better to die!
Fortunately, I escaped death!
Those who survive a great disaster will surely be blessed in the future, and this time the foundation building will definitely be successful.
Yang Jie nodded and said calmly, "I wonder how many white dragon buds did Fellow Daoist Zhang pick this time?"
The foundation-building pill only requires five white dragon buds. Zhang He has been picking them for so long, there must be more...
Zhang He became alert when he heard this, "Not many, only eight."
Just as Yang Jie was about to take them, Zhang He said, "I will keep five for myself to make foundation-building pills, and the remaining three can be sold to fellow Taoist for your convenience."
Yang Jie curled his lips, somewhat dissatisfied, but it was okay to be able to sell it first.
Unlike outside, White Dragon Bud is in short supply.
But before he could say anything, Deng Xuan's voice rang out from behind him again, "Wait a moment for the sale, where is my half of the share?"
Zhang He immediately became anxious when he heard this, "Fellow Daoist Deng! This is inappropriate, isn't it? I almost lost my life for this White Dragon Bud!"
Deng Xuan raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Isn't it still there?"
"Or do you want to throw it away now?"
Deng Xuan exudes the aura of a Foundation Establishment Stage person and is likely to take action at any time.
Zhang He felt extremely aggrieved, gritting his teeth with an extremely ugly expression.
Forget about the poisonous grass, it is dangerous, but the degree of danger cannot be compared with that of the white dragon bud.
Besides, he only had eight white dragon buds. If he gave half of them to Deng Xuan, he wouldn't be able to make the foundation-building pill himself!
Didn’t Deng Xuan want to kill him
Even if Deng Xuan used his foundation-building cultivation to suppress him, he couldn't swallow this!
If you can't beat him, can't you just run away
Zhang He planned to escape. Although he would be hunted down in the future, he did not want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build his foundation!
The others also had different expressions.
This Deng Xuan is too unreasonable...
Even if they avoided the threat of the Black Swamp Demon Fish and got the White Dragon Bud, they still had to face his oppression...
But at this moment, Deng Xuan spoke again.
"Forget it, I only want three, you can keep the other five for yourself."
Zhang He relaxed instantly and agreed without even thinking, "Okay! Three white dragon buds for you!"
Zhou Yu watched Zhang He hand over the three white dragon buds to Deng Xuan and shook his head and sighed.
What a jerk.
It's like Deng Xuan wanted to drill a skylight in his house, and Zhang He disagreed. But Deng Xuan took a step back and wanted to open a window, so Zhang He agreed...
No matter what, it is Zhang He's house that suffers, right
Deng Xuan collected Zhang He's white dragon buds, and then said to the others, "Let me make it clear that I am not an unreasonable person. Pick as many white dragon buds as you can. Keep five for yourselves to make foundation-building pills. If you pick more than five and less than ten, the rest will belong to me."
"If there are more than ten white dragon buds, we'll split them in half."
Yang Jie and the others also relaxed. That was fine. They just had to try their best to get five white dragon buds.
Most of the time, I work for Deng Xuan.
Zhou Yu was speechless...
Is the foundation-building stage that scary
Xia Xian'er on the side asked, "Zhou Huoyu, is there any way to avoid the Black Swamp Demon Fish?"
"I'll be more careful later..."
She also needs white dragon buds.
There was no way she would accept Deng Xuan's gift, and she didn't even want to buy from him.
Besides, she had never taken Deng Xuan's things for nothing before, so she was clear about this.
Can't owe anyone.
When everyone heard Xia Xianer's words, they also looked at Zhou Yu.
Since he knows that fish, maybe he knows how to deal with the Black Swamp Demon Fish...
Zhou Yu shook his head, "I don't know."
Everyone was disappointed and prepared ropes to pick the white dragon buds.
Zhou Yu saw Xia Xian'er also preparing, thought for a moment and said, "Let me help you pick them, you don't have to go down..."
Xia Xian'er was stunned, and her heart was touched, but she still refused, "Forget it, what if you meet the Black Swamp Demon Fish?"
Zhou Yu wanted to say that he had a way to deal with the Black Swamp Demon Fish, but he didn't say it.
The Black Swamp Demon Fish is also mentioned in the book on elixirs. Although it mainly records its medicinal uses, there are also rough records of what the Black Swamp Demon Fish is afraid of.
But this is not his main purpose...
Zhou Yu thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go first, and you follow me."
This time Xia Xian'er did not refuse, "Okay, then you should be careful."
As she spoke, she took out a jade talisman from her storage bag and handed it to Zhou Yu, "This is a golden talisman. If that dead fish attacks you, crush it!"
Zhou Yu took the jade talisman, which had an obscure inscription on it, which was quite extraordinary.
"Okay, I'll return it to you when I come up."
Zhou Yu was confident that nothing would go wrong, but he still accepted it to put Xia Xian'er at ease.
The others found out that Zhou Yu was going down to the swamp first, so they all stopped what they were doing and wanted to wait until he came up...
After all, Zhou Yu is not afraid of Deng Xuan and is very powerful.
If they brought more white dragon sprouts, perhaps they wouldn't have to go down.
Deng Xuan narrowed his eyes and watched Zhou Yu go down the rope, unable to suppress a smile on his face.
Haha, isn’t the opportunity here
Xia Xian'er nervously watched Zhou Yu slowly enter the purple mist, her palms sweating...
"Zhou Yu, please don't be in any trouble..."
At this time, an accident occurred!
A cold light flashed, and a dagger slashed through the rope and pierced into the tree trunk, and the rope broke with a sound!
Zhou Yu's figure fell rapidly and landed in the Death Swamp!
