Not long after Jiang Youning and others left on the sled, the mercenary team they met in Ice City appeared where they had just been.
"Look, there are traces left by the snow wolf here!"
The local who had a brief conversation with Jiang Youning shook his head regretfully, "This is the end of being young and energetic."
I just don’t know whether those beasts ate the corpse directly or hid it.
Every year, these mercenary teams can make a lot of money by collecting the bodies of dead adventurers.
On the other side, with the help of three snow wolves, Jiang Youning and others soon arrived at their first destination, Wind Stone Valley.
"You Ning, you are still smart. I didn't expect that these snow wolves can not only pull the sled, but also help us lead the way." Ye Sisi praised.
Jiang Youning jumped off the sled leisurely and said, "In order to catch enough prey, the snow wolves usually go to very far places, so they know the terrain of the Ice Plains best. .”
The map given to them by Dean Feng Hongyue could only point them in a general direction, but with the help of the three snow wolves, this problem was perfectly solved.
She patted the three snow wolves who were panting with their tongues hanging out because they were running so fast, and took out the food promised to them.
While the three snow wolves were busy eating, Luo Mian came over.
"You Ning, the Wind Stone Beast is in the Wind Stone Valley. This time we have to collect at least two thousand stones from the Wind Stone Beast's back."
Hearing this, Jiang Youning's eyes widened in surprise, "How come there are so many? I remember I only accepted one task to collect the wind stone beast stones?" She clearly remembered that the amount required for that task was five hundred. Why? So it becomes two thousand?
"Later I discovered that some tasks could be taken repeatedly, so I took them a few more times," Luo Mian said.
In this way, four people and three snow wolves entered the Wind Stone Valley.
As the saying goes, man-eating people have short mouths. Under the temptation of Jiang Youning's late night snack, the three snow wolves also began to look for traces of the wind stone beast.
The wind stone beast is a medium-sized mysterious beast. The adult wind stone beast is only about half a meter in size, but their bodies secrete a body fluid that turns yellow-brown after drying and is called a wind stone.
As the body fluids continue to be secreted and dried, secreted again, and dried again, the body of the wind stone beast will become larger and larger.
The goal of Jiang Youning and others is the priceless wind stones on these wind stone beasts.
Wind stones have always been in short supply in the market and are deeply loved by alchemists, weapon refiners and even talisman masters.
Because the wind stone on the wind stone beast can not only be used to make elixirs, but also to refine weapons. After grinding it and adding plant fibers, it can be made into special talisman paper, which is deeply loved by talisman masters.
After several people entered the Wind Stone Valley, what appeared in front of them was densely packed and countless stones.
Some of these stones are disguised by wind stone beasts, and some are real stones. Ordinary people can only break them one by one to look at them.
But once he does this, he will definitely anger the wind stone beast.
The temperament of the wind stone beasts is very lazy. They spend 11 and a half of the twelve hours a day sleeping, but this does not mean that they have no temper.
The wind stone is an important piece of armor for the wind stone beasts, and they will hunt down the thieves who destroy their armor.
The three snow wolves relied on their sensitivity to easily distinguish among the many stones which one was a stone and which one was a wind stone beast disguised as a stone.
Jiang Youning and the others took the tools they had prepared, and once Snow Wolf found the target, they began to knock on it.
They are not greedy and will only take the wind stone on the surface of the wind stone beast, because the longer it exists, the higher the value of the wind stone.
There were constant sounds of knocking in the Wind Stone Valley, which lasted until late at night. Only then did Jiang Youning and the others collect all two thousand wind stones.
The four people and the three wolves were panting and sitting on the ground without any image. The hands holding the chisels and hammers were still shaking.
"I'm so tired. I'm so tired that I don't even want to move." Ye Sisi complained.
Jiang Youning and the others just glanced at her lightly and said nothing because they were too tired to speak.
The three snow wolves were so tired that they fell asleep. They didn't even want the supper promised to them, and slept like three dead wolves.
Fortunately, several of them are cultivators. No matter how tired they are, there is nothing serious after a night's rest. The three snow wolves have also regained their energy and are chasing after Jiang Youning to ask for yesterday's reward. remuneration.
The reason why they were able to collect two thousand wind stones in one day was largely due to the three snow wolves. Jiang Youning readily took out the prey promised to them, and even asked Ye Sisi and Qiu Yue to Someone helped bake it.
Brushing on barbecue sauce and various seasonings, the three snow wolves tasted this taste for the first time, and suddenly felt that those days in the past were really in vain.
"Awwww" There is such delicious food in this world. You two idiots, eat slowly. Have you forgotten who is the boss?
After eating and drinking, Jiang Youning took out the sled and the group set out on the road again. Their destination this time was a bit far away and they needed to pass through the territory of the snow wolves.
Jiang Youning and others knew that the three snow wolves were expelled by the snow wolves. They thought that they did not dare to set foot in the territory of the snow wolves, but they did not expect that they were overly worried. Being expelled did not seem to have any impact on them. At night, they even stayed in the territory of the snow wolves.
Half a day after Jiang Youning and his party entered the territory of the snow wolves, another group of people also came to the edge of the territory of the snow wolves.
"Why do we have to take a detour? Can't we just go through here?" A well-dressed girl complained.
"No!" Li Zhengdao, a local, said decisively, "This is the edge of the Snow Wolf Pack's territory. If you don't want to die, just be obedient and take a detour."
In the Ice Plains, being targeted by snow wolves is undoubtedly the worst thing, let alone crossing directly through the territory of snow wolves. This is simply a naked provocation.
At the same time, Jiang Youning and others had built an igloo in the territory of the snow wolves.
"You Ning, is it really okay for us to rest here?" Ye Sisi swallowed her saliva. She had been frightened ever since she knew that this was the territory of the Snow Wolf Pack. She always felt that there were countless pairs of eyes around them staring at them. .
Then he turned around and saw that Luo Mian had already set up the barbecue grill.
"You're crazy. Are you afraid that the snow wolves can't find us?" Ye Sisi's expression was exaggerated, but she didn't dare to make too much noise.
"It's no problem. Don't worry. I've arranged an isolation formation around the igloo. Let alone the barbecue. Even if you sing a song, you won't be able to wear it out." Jiang Youning patted her. shoulders to calm her down.
