After some looking around.
Qiu Fei activated the flying talisman and drove into the Yangxi Valley area, flying among the high mountains.
He was looking for a safe place to live.
In such a harsh and unfamiliar environment, unpredictable events may happen at any time, and he needs to take precautions in advance.
The residence must be safe, stable and able to withstand sandstorms.
And the only choice for such an ideal residence is a cave.
After flying for a long distance in the Yangxi Valley with the Flying Talisman, Qiu Fei finally discovered a natural cave in a canyon.
This is a natural cave, but the entrance is on a cliff more than thirty feet above the ground.
It looks narrow, small, and irregular. There are many edges and corners of rocks protruding from the cave wall, making it easy to get knocked.
On the ground inside the cave, there was a layer of rough gravel and sand piled up in a mess, which looked like it had been swept in by the storm.
Qiu Fei looked at it and found that the cave was a little small, with a depth of only more than one foot, and a width and height of less than five feet.
It does feel a bit cramped and narrow when you move in. If you turn around, you will hit the wall of the cave accidentally.
However, Qiu Fei didn't care.
As long as they can protect themselves from wind and rain, since when did workers care about their living environment?
Qiu Fei activated the flying talisman and drove to the cave, then jumped in with the two little guys in his arms.
The cave is very dry and has no peculiar smell. Obviously, no flying monsters live here.
Qiu Fei was very satisfied and could live in it after simply tidying it up.
"Brother Hei" looked at this simple cave and then at the straight cliff on the other side of the canyon, with endless disappointment in his eyes. "Master, living in such a ghost place, it is very inconvenient for the baby to go out to play with the black girl." ah."
The Ghost Faced Ape is best at climbing, but the two little guys haven't grown up yet, so they are still very scared when they see such a high cliff.
"Still want to play?"
Qiu Fei warned the two little guys, "There are very powerful monsters in the Yangxi Valley. If you don't want to be treated as delicious food by them, just stay in the cave."
The master will complete the task as soon as possible and take you home early, so that you can play to your heart's content. "
After that, he ignored the two little guys and packed up the cave.
Qiu Fei only picked up the larger gravels, but the sand grains were not swept away.
Qiu Fei laid them out in the cave and put a layer of blanket on top. They felt very soft whether he was lying down, sitting or walking.
At this time, I could only hear "Brother Hei" calling out: "Master, look, what is that thing?"
Qiu Fei raised his head curiously and looked out of the cave.
I saw a fist-sized stone cave on the cliff opposite the canyon. At this moment, after hearing the movement here, a furry little head popped out of it.
It was rolling its bony eyes and looking here curiously. At the same time, the hair on its body stood like needles, making it look very alert.
Judging from its appearance, it should be a wasteland badger, not even a monster.
After Qiu Fei explained to the two little guys, he ignored them and continued to clean the cave.
At this time, he heard the voice of the "little black girl" at the entrance of the cave, "Master, can you make this lamb a roasted whole lamb?"
"sheep?"
Qiu Fei was stunned for a moment, stopped what he was doing, and followed the gaze of the "little black girl" to look at the cliff opposite.
On the cliff opposite, there was really a three-foot-sized sheep-like animal with a pair of crescent horns, looking at them curiously.
Isn’t this the black-bellied sheep?
Qiu Fei's heart moved.
Before he even started hunting, the prey came right in front of him. This was extraordinary luck!
Black-bellied sheep are small in size and have long brown hair growing on their bodies, but the hair on their abdomen is very conspicuous.
It is pure black.
This is why the black-bellied sheep got its name.
It was seen standing firmly on the steep cliff with all four feet, staring at Qiu Fei and the two little guys in the cave opposite with a pair of curious eyes.
It's like admiring a plate of delicious food.
The distance was a bit far and Qiu Fei couldn't take action.
When he saw the prey, Qiu Fei stopped cleaning the cave and immediately took out his flying talisman and prepared to hunt.
At this moment, the black-bellied sheep on the opposite side moved.
It jumped up, and its thin body ran nimbly on the steep cliff. Every time it landed, it accurately stepped on the protruding parts of the cliff.
The black-bellied sheep has a strong body and agile movements. After several leaps, it reaches the top of the cliff lightly.
Before leaving, it actually looked back at Qiu Fei and the others, casting a mocking look.
Then it climbed over the hill and disappeared from sight.
There was a "whoosh" sound.
Qiu Fei jumped onto the flying talisman and quickly chased after him.
When he flew to the top of the cliff opposite, where could he find the black-bellied sheep?
However, this was not possible for Qiu Fei, who immediately used his spiritual consciousness.
In a moment, the figure of the black-bellied sheep appeared in his sea of consciousness.
It turned out that the black-bellied sheep jumped into a narrow and long valley gully, and then left along this gully that was washed and weathered by rain, wind and sand.
Such ditches are very common in the mountain peaks in the Sheep Creek Valley area. Qiu Fei was not in a hurry to chase and kill them, but only used his spiritual sense to explore the direction in which the black-bellied sheep were escaping.
He hoped that the black-bellied sheep could lead him to find their group, so that he would not have to blindly search for prey in this deserted valley.
The grooves go all the way down the mountain.
After a while, the gap in the ditch disappeared, and the black-bellied sheep jumped out of the gap and continued to jump on the hillside, running into the depths of the mountain.
Qiu Fei activated the flying talisman and flew high in the sky, following leisurely.
Black-bellied sheep are small and thin, and a single individual can easily lose its trace in the ravine-ridden valleys.
Fortunately, Qiu Fei's spiritual sense was so good that he could detect the area as far as ten miles away, and he knew every move of this black-bellied sheep.
In this way, Qiu Fei followed the black-bellied sheep to a rocky beach deep in the mountains.
The rocky beach is very wide and deep. After the black-bellied sheep came here, they would occasionally push away some rocks with their heads and stick out their tongues to lick them.
Qiu Fei was puzzled and didn't know what the black-bellied sheep was doing.
After it went away, he landed on the rocky beach and found a stone that had been licked by a black-bellied sheep.
I saw some yellow-white crystal particles remaining on it.
Sand salt!
Qiu Fei understood that the black-bellied sheep were looking for sand salt.
The black-bellied sheep, which had eaten the sand and salt, quickened its pace now and went deeper along the rocky beach. When it was near the end, it got into a pile of rocks and lost its trace.
At first, Qiu Fei didn't care.
But after waiting for a long time and not seeing the black-bellied sheep emerging from the rocks, I realized something was wrong.
He hurried forward.
This is a pile of rubble that is more than ten feet wide, with hundreds or even thousands of rocks of uneven sizes.
They are stacked irregularly, with certain gaps between them.
These gaps can be large or small, the big ones can allow a person to get into, and the small ones can't even fit a fist.
Qiu Fei tried to get into a slightly larger gap, but after taking a few steps in, he had to retreat.
Because the gap is over.
The way ahead has been blocked by another boulder, making it impossible to pass.
Qiu Fei surrounded the pile of rocks and kept looking up, down, left, and right, but he couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Even if he used his spiritual consciousness to investigate, he still had no clue.
If he had not witnessed the black-bellied sheep getting into the pile of rocks with his own eyes, he would not have believed that this pile of ordinary rocks could be so weird.
Where did the black-bellied sheep go?
This is a question that Qiu Fei is puzzled by.
It was nearly noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was unusually hot.
Thinking that I had wasted too much time here and left the two little guys in the cave for too long, it was ultimately wrong.
So Qiu Fei put aside his doubts and returned to the cave.
Seeing Qiu Fei coming back, "Brother Hei" and "Little Black Girl" threw themselves into his arms, feeling miserable.
"Master, do you know? There was a magic eagle flying over the top of the mountain just now. Fortunately, I was alert and took the black girl to hide in."
Lying on his shoulder, "Black Brother" kept asking Qiu Fei for credit.
"Magic Eagle" is a unique magical beast in the wasteland. It makes a living by hunting carnivorous animals and magical beasts. It is very ferocious.
Qiu Fei stroked the "little black girl"'s little head to express comfort.
Taking out food and water, one person and two animals had a simple meal.
That afternoon, Qiu Fei continued to clean the cave. He placed "Brother Black" and "Little Black Girl" inside the cave while he lived outside.
Then, he moved a huge stone and placed it at the entrance of the cave, leaving only a slightly narrow gap for him and the two little guys to enter and exit.
This is done to prevent the danger caused by aerial monsters like the Demon Eagle to the two little guys, and also to prevent other cultivators from discovering the existence of this cave at a glance.
Although Yangxi Valley is desolate and inaccessible, it cannot withstand the high rewards of sect missions. There will always be some cultivators who take risks and break in.
Qiu Fei understands the fierce competition in the world of cultivation.
The evil of human nature will be infinitely magnified in such an environment. In order to seize the cultivation resources of other cultivators, there are many people who stab them in the back.
Qiu Fei had to guard against it.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Qiu Fei took "Black Brother" and "Little Black Girl" and set off.
He went straight to the pile of rocks.
Qiu Fei immediately asked the two little guys, "Do you two see anything wrong with this pile of rocks?"
"It's just a pile of rocks."
"Brother Hei" said carelessly.
The "little black girl" twitched her nose, sniffed around, and replied: "Master, I smell the scent of a monster."
"Where?"
Qiu Fei is overjoyed.
He specially brought two little guys here today, just to use their keen sense of smell to find traces of black-bellied sheep.
It is said that the passing geese leave behind their voices and the passing people leave behind their photos.
Whenever you walk through, there will be traces.
Qiu Fei never believed that a living monster would disappear out of thin air for no reason.
This thing itself is weird.
The "little black girl" walked towards the pile of rocks.
To prevent an accident from happening, Qiu Fei tightened his grip on the rope holding the "little black girl".
Coming to a not very wide gap, the "little black girl" stood still, put her head to the gap, and sniffed gently.
The black-bellied sheep got into this gap yesterday?
impossible!
This gap is less than one foot long and about two feet high.
Qiu Fei used his spiritual consciousness to inspect it yesterday. At that time, there was no black-bellied sheep inside.
Just when Qiu Fei was thinking wildly, the "little black girl" raised her head and said, "Master, the smell has disappeared from here."
