Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 680: Cloudy Valley and Bloodflame Tree

Views:

The girl will travel far the next day, leaving the mountain village where she has lived for more than ten years, with longing, yearning and a bit of anxiety to pursue her dream of cultivation.

The mother-in-law packed her luggage for her, while calling "ah" with gestures, telling her to be careful and protect herself after going out.

The old man took Qin Yu to drink tea in the courtyard, and it was indeed the best tea in his collection, "Qin boy, Ah Li owes you a lot for this matter, I asked her to promise one thing, no matter whether Ah Li has anything in the future. What success, as long as you ask, she will be your wife."

Qin Yu waved his hands again and again, "No, no, sir, you are thinking too much..."

"Hmph! It's settled, otherwise the old man won't let her use this gray thread grass." The old man warned seriously, "The men and women who are initially in love will beautify each other in their hearts, and are willing to give everything to each other. , but this emotion will gradually subside, I just gave you a chance to salvage in the future, at least... "

The old man didn't finish his sentence, but Qin Yu understood what he meant. At least even if A Li refused, he would compensate him enough.

This is a really kind old man, Qin Yu's heart is warm, he no longer refuses to smile and nod, "Then I will thank you for being old!"

The old man showed satisfaction.

Silent for a night, when A Li was about to leave the next day, he came to Qin Yu, "After I leave, I will trouble you to take care of this family." She bit her lip, "Grandpa should have told you, as long as you are willing. , I will promise anytime!"

After talking and hugging the old man and mother-in-law, the girl jumped on the ox cart that the village went out to buy, and walked farther and farther in the bright sunlight in the morning.

Watching the ox cart go away, Qin Yu smiled and didn't take the girl's words to heart. Old Master Zhou understood the truth, and his heart was more transparent - when people make promises, they always think that they can do it, but As time goes by, everything will change.

Of course, Qin Yu had no intention of getting close to the girl from the very beginning, so his heart was peaceful and calm.

When A Li walked out of the mountain, the young people in the surrounding villages became depressed, but when they saw Qin Yu, they felt a little more comforted in their hearts.

The most uncomfortable thing should be this kid. The bamboo basket is empty, and he is much more miserable than us... Thinking of this, I feel a lot more comfortable in my heart. Sure enough, there is an undeniable inferiority in people's hearts.

Chasing a large number of black-horned sheep, Qin Yu, who went into the mountains to graze again under the watchful eyes of the young people in the mountain village, could vaguely perceive the strange emotions in their eyes, and his expression was calm.

After A Li left, the heavy responsibility of the Zhou family's herding fell on Qin Yu. Perhaps because the two old couples had already regarded Qin Yu as their grandson-in-law and their own family, they accepted it as a matter of course.

In the words of the old man, after the couple left, everything in this family will be handed over to Qin Yu.

Perhaps this is also a subconscious compensation move, Qin Yu stood on the edge of the grass field, looked up at the Mangmang Mountains, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the world of practitioners, it has been difficult to move forward so far, and I don't know how many bloody killings have been experienced. A warmth like this is more and more precious.

As soon as his mind moved, a small group of purple-backed green-winged ants flew with their wings. Qin Yu could clearly sense the surrender and closeness conveyed by them.

"Look at the sheep and don't get lost."

After giving an order, the group of purple-backed green-winged ants dispersed with a "hum" sound and landed around the grassland. There would be basically no problems with them taking care of them.

After kicking Pig Dagang, Qin Yu smiled and said, "Let's go, we're going into the mountain."

The ancient trees support the sky. Because of the strong spiritual power of heaven and earth, the tree canopy grows extraordinarily huge, intertwined with each other, like a large net with the sunlight occasionally falling from it, and the environment is slightly dark.

Among the thick, wet branches and fallen leaves on the ground, Zhu Dagang swelled a few times, carrying Qin Yu on his back and moving forward quickly. clean.

The nose kept twitching, and the pig had just climbed the ditch and passed the stone, obviously very purposeful. When it stopped, there was a cliff in front of it.

The cliff is very high, the whole body is dark blue, and the top breaks through the canopy blockade, and it is exposed to the bright sunlight, making the honeycomb, which looks like a glass crystal, even more dazzling.

There was a look of infatuation in the small eyes, and Zhu Dagang's face was intoxicated, "Although I don't know what kind of bee this bee is, the honey they make is definitely a good thing..." The corner of his mouth showed a glittering sparkle.

Qin Yu agreed with its judgment, and his eyes fell on the beehive that was several miles in size, showing some anticipation.

"Let's step back a little."

Hearing this, Zhu Dagang turned his head and left. He didn't want to wait and be involved in the battle. When he arrived at the safe area, Qin Yu clapped his hands, and the surrounding silence was suddenly broken by the sound of "hum" and "hum", and the overwhelming ant colonies gathered from all directions.

On the cliff, the hive seemed to feel the threat from the outside world, and the busy bee colony flew into it quickly, and then from the hive, a large number of black battle bees flew out.

Each of them has the size of an adult forearm, and its black wings flash with a metallic halo in the sunlight.

Qin Yu gave an order in his mind, "Pick the beehive!"

The ant colony rose into the sky and came to the top of the cliff in the blink of an eye. The battle bees guarding outside the hive rushed up without any hesitation.

Compared with the palm-sized purple-backed green-winged ants, these fighting bees are much larger, but their actual combat power is much weaker than that of the ant colony. Their sturdy iron bodies were easily torn apart in front of the ant colony, and within a few hours of meeting, the battle bees had suffered heavy casualties.

Suddenly, a scream came from the hive, and a rich black-purple aperture erupted from it, sweeping across the battlefield in an instant.

The battle bee covered by the black-purple aperture suddenly increased in breath, and the ant colony was obviously suppressed, and its speed and strength were weakened to varying degrees.

Queen bee

Qin Yu frowned slightly. He didn't expect the hive to have such power, but it is normal to think about it. If there is no self-protection, the exposed hive would have been divided up by various monsters and beasts, and it is impossible to survive to this day.

But this alone is not enough to resist the attack of the ant colony. The purple-backed blue-winged ants who have completed a transformation are far from comparable to ordinary monsters in terms of strength and spiritual awareness.

hum—

hum—

I saw that the speed of the wings of the ant colony suddenly accelerated, and what was even more amazing was that the frequency of their wings was quickly synchronized.

The texture on the surface of the purple-backed blue-winged ant body gradually lights up, forming an impact that can be detected by the naked eye, like a big wave in the sea swept in all directions.

The black-purple aperture was shattered as soon as it competed, and the screams in the hive sounded again, full of panic and pain, and the battle bees suddenly fell into chaos.

At this moment, a weak voice sounded in Qin Yu's ear, "Respected and powerful Beast Master, according to the ancient agreement between you and me, I am willing to surrender to you and offer half of the savings in the hive and a treasure. The secrets of my life, please be kind and let me and my people survive."

Qin Yu didn't know what the so-called agreement was, but he cared about the treasure that the queen bee said, and he couldn't get it with the strength of the hive. This treasure must be guarded by a powerful force, which means it is precious.

His eyes flickered slightly, and Qin Yu said solemnly: "Tell me the information about the treasure and see if it has enough value to exchange your life."

The queen bee has no room for refusal, "As you wish."

A wave of spiritual sense passed over, and after confirming that there was no threat, Qin Yu stretched out his hand and accepted the information inside. Countless pictures flashed through my mind, and finally settled in one place, in a valley shrouded in clouds and mist.

The wind blew the fog, revealing a special plant that grows against the mountain wall. It is about three or four feet tall, with a red body and a few red fruits on its branches.

Looking further down, it became a little blurry, and I could only vaguely see that all kinds of bones were piled up around this flame-like plant.

Snapped-

The screen is now over.

The queen bee's voice sounded, "Your Excellency the powerful beastmaster, if my inheritance information is correct, this is a legendary blood flame fruit tree. Its condensed fruit is a treasure that strengthens the flesh and blood. , and eventually all buried in the clouds."

"In that valley, there are not only all kinds of powerful monsters, but also natural formations, which can be said to be very dangerous. But the fruit of the blood flame fruit tree is enough to make people take risks. If you are satisfied with this news, please accept my opinion. surrender."

Qin Yu's thoughts turned quickly, and he said solemnly: "Eighty percent! I want eighty percent of the savings in the hive!"

The queen bee's voice suddenly sharp, "This does not conform to the ancient agreement, I have shown enough sincerity..."

"Jiucheng!" Qin Yu's expression was grim, his eyes were cold, "Remember your current situation, if you don't accept it, then start fighting!"

The queen bee was silent for a while, then said sullenly: "The hive follows your will."

The man is the knife and I am the fish, and the result is unexpected.

There are pigs who have personally scoured it. It is impossible for the beehive to hide its belongings. In addition to the barrels of honey, there are all kinds of rare treasures.

Qin Yu even found a simple ring, which was completely dark and unremarkable. After asking the queen bee about its function, Qin Yu's face showed a strange look, but he put the ring firmly on his finger.

The Ring of Liars, after admitting the Lord with blood, he can release different levels of aura according to the changes in the cultivator's mind - to put it bluntly, if a first-level monk fantasizes that he is a second-level monk, he can release a second-level aura. If the fantasy is a third-level aura. level and so on.

Of course, the Ring of Liars requires that the cultivator's fantasy must be complete and accurate, but the closer the real effect is, the better. This is not difficult for Qin Yu. He temporarily lost his cultivation, but the realm still exists. At a critical moment, this powerless bluffing ring may have an unexpected effect.

After searching back and forth three times to make sure that nothing was missed, Zhu Dagang hummed a cheerful little song, tore a space crack with his fangs, and put the harvest into it.

This made Qin Yu discover that it has a special hidden identity - the space controller. According to Zhu Dagang, this is the ability he acquired after accepting the inheritance of the king in the pig clan. He has an independent storage space and can Switch it on and off anywhere.

"The space controller?" Qin Yu murmured, looking at Zhu Dagang, his dark eyes filled with loneliness, causing the latter to subconsciously clamp his legs, giving rise to inexplicable unease.

The harvest of taking away the honeycomb is amazing, especially the identification result of honey, which makes Qin Yu smile, it actually has the dual effect of nourishing the body and soul.

Although the effect is weak, it can't stand the amazing amount, especially after being strengthened by the small blue light, the honey color is like the best liquid amber, and you can clearly feel it after taking a sip. .

Lying in the small courtyard room of the Zhou family, Qin Yu subconsciously came up with the picture that the queen bee passed to him, the valley covered with clouds and mist, and the blood flame fruit trees in the valley.

The queen bee should not dare to lie, so once you get the blood flame fruit, with its powerful effect, you will be able to restore part of the physical strength.

With the strength of Qin Yu's ancient clan's body, he can completely smash the fairyland head-on, and even part of his strength is enough to protect himself.

Taking a deep breath, he rolled his mind under the air pressure, "Don't worry, I'm in a state of recovery every day now, and I'll grab the Blood Flame Fruit after a while, and I'll be more confident."

Since the hive discovered the secret in the valley, the blood flame fruit has not been picked, which is enough to show that it will not be taken away for the time being, and Qin Yu has enough time to prepare.

The next day, when he came back from grazing, Qin Yu put a bottle of honey that was not strengthened by a small blue lamp on the table. "I was lucky today. I found a hive. The honey in it tastes very good. Mother-in-law, you can try it with the old man."

The potency of the enhanced honey is too strong, and the two old people are weak and may not be able to bear it. Qin Yu is very clear about the reason why it is too much.

The mother-in-law smiled and accepted it, and made a few gestures.

"The old man went out to help people work again?" Qin Yu showed helplessness.

Since Ah Li left, Mr. Zhou worked harder and harder, and with his good skills, he soon became a well-known master carpenter in the surrounding villages... I am afraid that there is some accumulation of wealth here to compensate Qin Yu.

"You tell the old man that you should rest when you are old, you don't have to work so hard!"

The mother-in-law made an "ah" gesture, saying that this time the old man was out of the mountains and went to Kuncheng, three hundred miles away, to work for a wealthy family, and he would definitely make a lot of money.

When she said this, her mother-in-law looked proud.

Five days later, Qin Yu, who was rushing back to the village with the sheep, found that outside the small courtyard of Zhou's house, there were people standing on the third floor and the third floor.

Seeing Qin Yu coming back, the crowd gave in one after another, revealing an ox cart at the gate of the courtyard, and Mr. Zhou lying on the board.

His face was covered with black gas, and he was wriggling under the flesh and blood like a living thing. The gas was like a gossamer. It was obvious that he had reached the point where the oil was exhausted.

The mother-in-law was lying on the side crying heartbreakingly.

Qin Yu quickly figured out what was going on in the midst of everyone's chatter. A moment ago, he asked Mr. Zhou to go out and work in the Liu family, and he led a few people to leave the ox cart here. Liu's forbidden land was bitten by poison, and he threw down some money and walked away.

Looking at the appearance of the old man Zhou at this time, Qin Yu felt a chill in his heart, and he threw his hands together.

When everyone exclaimed, he bent down and hugged the old man Zhou, and strode into the yard.

Putting the old man on the bed, Qin Yu said to his mother-in-law: "Don't worry, I have learned some ways to treat poison, so I won't be contaminated. Mother-in-law, go and burn some hot water, I will use it later."

The mother-in-law, who has no masters, seems to have caught the last straw, holding back her tears and hurriedly turned to go out.

Qin Yu raised his hand and tapped the old man with the finger of the avenue condensed by the poison.

A wave of black energy gathered and penetrated into the fingertips, and the old man's face quickly became better.

But Qin Yu's face did not relax, because the reason why the old man was in a coma was not these poisonous gas, but a cold force entrenched in his body.

Although the inspection is not thorough, if there is no accident, it should be the power of the curse!

The power of this curse is not strong, but the old man is old and frail, coupled with the delay of the Liu family, it has already penetrated into the bone marrow, and if it cannot be removed, he may die at any time.

"Kuncheng, Liu family!"

Qin Yu looked cold, but he knew very well that saving people was the most important thing now.

After kicking the pig, Qin Yu took out a bottle of enhanced honey from the crack in the space and fed it to the old man. On his pale face, a faint blood color quickly appeared, and his breathing became stronger, but this was only an appearance.

Taking the fortified honey with amazing potency is a kind of harm to the old man, but in this state, Qin Yu has no choice but to prolong his life.

When the old man's breath stabilized a little, Qin Yu checked it again and exhaled lightly.

With the help of the power of honey, the erosion of the curse power is temporarily eased. If there is no accident, Mr. Zhou can last for a few days.

But this method can only be used once, otherwise the old man's body will not be able to bear it, and he will die directly.

The mother-in-law who had boiled the water pushed open the door and came in. Seeing the good-looking old man, she looked surprised, almost thinking it was a hallucination, and pulled Qin Yu "ah" to ask.

Qin Yu hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, the old man is fine, it's just because of the residual poison, he has to sleep for a few days. I can completely cure the old man, but I am missing an herb in my hand, and I need to go into the mountains to find it. The old man will wait for me to come back."

Concealment is the best choice, Qin Yu didn't delay much, and went straight out after a little preparation.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the sky was full of bloody sunsets. Seeing that Qin Yu had no hesitation, he walked steadily into the depths of the mountain, and the villagers who had not dispersed were shocked.

Is this boy surnamed Qin enough to live? He didn't know that no one dared to enter the mountain covered by the night

A few young people who had thought about teaching Qin Yu a lesson all showed shame. Compared with the person in front of him who walked towards the mountains without fear, they were indeed not worthy of Ah Li.

When Qin Yu stepped through the grazing area, the sky was already dark, and Zhu Dagang spit out, "Master, you must think clearly, that place is deep in the mountains, there are absolutely many dangers, for an ordinary person, are you worth it? ?"

"worth!"

Qin Yu was decisive, and the ant colony roared, holding him and Zhu Dagang up, and swiftly flew towards the mountain amid the latter's wailing.
