"You're welcome. Where are you going?" Zuo Xiaoduo asked.
"Let's go to the university to report." Ji Weiran was confused by Zuo Xiaoduo's question.
"Then why don't you take a plane or something?" Zuo Xiaoduo was puzzled; ordinary people running around in this meteorite plain? Aren't you afraid of being eaten
"Ahem..."
Ji Weiran looked at the dozen or so companions around him with an embarrassed look on his face, and most of the others were embarrassed as well.
"Ahem, the classmates discussed and decided to leave a few days earlier. We pooled our money and hired a bodyguard team, and then... we'll just treat it as a trip... Besides, although we don't have the aptitude to practice, we also yearn for the kind of sword-fighting martial arts world... ahem... we also want to see it."
Ji Weiran felt very embarrassed when he spoke.
"… "
Zuo Xiaoduo was speechless.
This, what is there to know
The price of seeing this once could be your life, okay? !
"Everyone, have you seen the different scenery of Meteorite Plain now?" Zuo Xiaoduo asked with a smile.
"I've seen it... cough cough cough..."
"Would you like to continue seeing me next time?"
"No, no..."
Ji Weiran's face flushed red.
"Hahahaha." Zuo Xiaoduo laughed: "Where is your school?"
"Fenghai." Ji Weiran said with some hope, "Master Zuo, you should also go there to register, right? I wonder which school you are targeting?"
"It's a coincidence that my target school is also in Fenghai."
"Then we..."
"I'm afraid not."
Zuo Xiaoduo shook his head regretfully: "But you guys are too slow. If we go with you, we will definitely miss the start of school."
"That's really... such a pity." Ji Weiran's face was full of disappointment.
"It's okay, it's okay. You can continue traveling along the trade route slowly. The trade route is still very protective. But in the future, it's better to have less such experience." Zuo Xiaoduo advised with a smile.
After exchanging contact information with Ji Weiran, Zuo Xiaoduo said hello to everyone else and continued on his way.
"Old Ji, contact me again when we get to Fenghai."
After running forward for more than 500 miles, I unexpectedly didn't see Li Chenglong. I didn't know where this guy had gone and why he didn't reach the agreed destination.
However, Zuo Xiaoduo was not worried that Li Chenglong would end up in the star beast's stomach. With this guy's extensive knowledge, his means of saving his life might not be inferior to his own.
After a while, Zuo Xiaoduo finally found Li Chenglong on a hillside, hiding in a deep pit like a groundhog.
"Boss Zuo!"
Li Chenglong shouted excitedly: "Come here quickly, there are good things here!"
Zuo Xiaoduo squatted at the entrance of the cave and asked, "What good stuff is there?"
“I don’t know yet.”
Li Chenglong climbed out of the cave, took a breath, and said, "Those star beasts followed me all the way. I was afraid that if I got close, they would run back. So I simply took the Star Soul Jade you gave me and ran more than a hundred miles before putting it away. My spiritual energy suddenly disappeared, and most of the star beasts fled in all directions. After running for a while, there were no star beasts following me."
"To be on the safe side, I saw a hole nearby, so I hid in it. Guess what happened?"
Li Chenglong looked excited.
Zuo Xiaoduo sighed, raised his eyelids, and said listlessly with a fake shocked expression: "There's soil in the hole?!"
"You uncle!"
Li Chenglong laughed and scolded: "There is a Star Soul Stone in the cave, which is very large. Of course, this is nothing. But when I looked carefully, I found that next to the Star Soul Stone, there is another hole, a very deep hole."
"That is to say, there was originally only one hole here, but the Star Soul Stone fell from the sky and smashed into it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have smashed so deep... I just explored this deep hole and found a faint fragrance coming out of it. If my inference is correct, this should be an extremely rare Star Soul Musk Cave."
"Because of the destruction caused by the meteorite, the original native Star Soul Musk must have left long ago. However, where the Star Soul Musk lived, there must be Orchid Vanilla. This thing has no feet and cannot walk."
Star Soul Musk
Zuo Xiaoduo turned his head and looked. The hillside was full of potholes and patches of fiery red soil, and he could vaguely feel that the temperature underground was even higher!
There were bursts of hot breath rushing out of the cave entrance, and it seemed that the Star Soul Musk Deer might have lived there in the past.
Li Chenglong said: "Now you understand why I have been busy with this. What a coincidence, I just cleared the hole and you arrived."
Zuo Xiaoduo looked carefully and found that Li Chenglong had already cleared a depth of nearly twenty meters. It was not just like he had just cleared the entrance of the hole. It was clear that the work was almost completed.
"What's the use of vanilla? It's just worth a little money... not much, at most a few hundred thousand, what's the value of it?"
Zuo Xiaoduo said disdainfully: "It's just such a small amount of money, and you still care about it? I really look down on you. Get out of the way and let me do it."
Li Chenglong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Brother, this is not about money. Although the market price of orchid vanilla is not too high, it is really rare because of its special picking conditions. It is difficult for ordinary people to pick it. But I heard that... the vice president of Qianlong High School was splashed with the water of the River of Oblivion during the battle with the Wu League... Since then, the strange odor on his body cannot be eliminated. Every time he goes out, he will spray an extremely strong perfume, but it still can't cover it up..."
"So this vice-president rarely comes out... And the way to solve his problem is to use orchid vanilla. All we need is orchid vanilla and some medicine to eliminate the stench... Do you understand?"
Li Chenglong said, "If it weren't for this matter, the hundreds of thousands of dollars alone would not be enough for my hard-earned money. I wanted to find a backer for both of us at school. Now that I have found one, it would be a waste if I didn't take it. It would be a waste if I took it."
"I see."
Zuo Xiaoduo, who knew the whole story, was still a little disappointed.
Zuo Ye really felt it was meaningless to pick this orchid just to curry favor.
It's actually for gift giving.
Not sending me!!
snort!
Money that can’t go into your own pocket…
Can that still be called money
That's called shit!
"Then go ahead and pick them. I won't stop you."
Zuo Xiaoduo sat down weakly. He was really tired now. He was worried about Li Chenglong just now and looked for him quickly, but he was exhausted.
At this moment, my mind will slacken, especially the feeling of disappointment will overwhelm me, and I will suddenly feel tired, and everything I do will become boring.
Li Chenglong said, "Generally, where the Star Soul Musk Deer has lived, more than one orchid will grow... But what Vice President Xiang needs is only one, or at most two... If there is a whole orchid growing in this cave, what do you think will happen..."
one slice?!
Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly sat up straight, his eyes burning, as if all the fatigue in his body had disappeared without a trace.
"If there really is a piece of vanilla that is all bluegrass, we will be rich..."
Li Chenglong bewitched, "Look at the situation inside this cave... I'm afraid this cave has existed for at least hundreds of years... The number of orchids and herbs in here, at the most conservative estimate, should not be less than ten."
"Ten trees? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Zuo Xiaoduo immediately perked up: "You're too slow, let me do it."
"good."
Li Chenglong jumped up and said, "If you see orchid grass, remember to pick it up in the right way. You must dig up the soil together with it, and then use your burning skill to keep the temperature of the soil above 60 degrees..."
"I see! You're too long-winded."
Zuo Xiaoduo started working very actively.
Li Chenglong took out a bottle of water and started drinking it. He stretched his legs and took a leisurely rest.
Finally, this thing has arrived.
Can I go in
If I go in, I can only kill Lan Xiangcao, and I don’t know how to use this burning skill... I have been standing here all this time, just to wait for you...
Do you think I'm not tired? I'm almost dying of exhaustion!
Humph.
After a moment.
Zuo Xiaoduo crawled out holding a big lump of earth, the soil underneath was steaming from the heat he had burned.
But Zuo Xiaoduo looked very unhappy, as unhappy as it could be: "Didn't they say there were at least ten trees? How come I only found one after searching everywhere?"
Zuo Ye felt like he was being cheated. He had gone down smoothly, found the orchid grass smoothly, and dug it smoothly...
The only thing that didn't meet expectations was: where is the large area that Li Chenglong mentioned? Where are the at least ten trees
Just on a small piece of warm soil, there grew a bean sprout-like plant!
I was tricked by this bastard!
"Only one? No way?"
Li Chenglong was extremely surprised, and then he beat his chest and stamped his feet: "I worked so hard, but only got one tree?"
Zuo Xiaoduo watched this guy acting coldly.
"But one is enough."
Li Chenglong immediately consoled him, "It's enough for us to find someone to lean on at school. Boss Zuo, your hard work is worth it."
Zuo Xiaoduo threw the thing into the space ring angrily and rolled his eyes, saying, "Zhongzhong, I've made a note of this. Now the thing is in my ring, I want to see how you take it out of my ring!"
"hey-hey… "
Li Chenglong's eyes rolled around.
As long as you get the things, it's fine. As for how to take them out...
The mountain man has his own clever plan.
"Boss, should we continue on our way or take a break? Come on, have a drink of water."
Li Chenglong looked very servile.
"snort."
The more Zuo Xiaoduo thought about it, the more he felt suffocated. He was not careful enough and was treated as a long-term worker by this guy...
I'm so angry!
I always feel that this guy has other intentions, but I can't figure out his real purpose for the moment.
"Where's my Star Soul Jade?" Zuo Xiaoduo stretched out his hand: "Give it back."
"What Star Soul Jade?" Zhongzhong looked surprised.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Zuo Xiaoduo glared with his eyes, looking ferocious.
"The black one you threw to me to lure away the star beast?"
Li Chenglong sighed: "I ran wildly with the star beasts for a long time. It was fine at first, but then I consumed too much spiritual power too quickly... I had no choice but to absorb it while persisting..."
"But I didn't expect... it was absorbed in a short time..."
Zhongzhong laughed and said, "Boss Zuo, it's just a piece of Star Soul Jade. Why are you so nervous? I will compensate you with ten pieces of medium-quality jade later. Isn't that generous of a brother?"
"Li Chenglong!"
Zuo Xiaoduo shouted loudly and rushed forward in rage.
