Lao Huo carefully climbed to the ginseng and slowly tied the red rope with the copper coins to the branches of the ginseng, with a fiery gaze in his eyes.
The soil spirit ginseng was so drowsy by the intoxicating fragrance that it suddenly woke up and found that someone was holding a red rope. She was shocked and turned pale. She changed her mind and hurriedly abandoned the branches and leaves. The soil spirit power around her body rotated and she escaped into the earth.
Lao Huo on the ground hadn't noticed that the soil spirit ginseng had escaped and was still busy there: "Big boy, come here quickly. I've tied up the wild ginseng and took out the deer bone needle to dig it out."
"Okay!" Da Wa hurriedly ran over with her backpack.
In the cave, as soon as the earth spirit ginseng emerged and escaped, it was held by Lin Feng's hand that was using the earth spirit power.
Tu Ling Shen was shocked and hurriedly twisted her body, trying to escape, but was pulled out by Lin Feng and off the ground.
Leaving the ground, the Earth Spirit Ginseng's ability to escape from the ground could not be used. Lin Feng took off the red bracelet, tied it to the Earth Spirit Ginseng stem, and used the Spirit Binding Technique to condense a force of Earth Spirit to wrap the Earth Spirit Ginseng. Due to his unskilled spell, It took several times in a row to succeed, and then it was wrapped with a piece of cowhide and put into the backpack.
This bracelet was made of red rope by Qing'er and given to Lin Feng. At that time, Lin Feng felt that the red color was too bright and he was very reluctant to wear it. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, it was just used to tie the soil ginseng.
Putting on his backpack and not stopping any longer, Lin Feng used the Earth Escape Technique and followed the east direction for a hundred meters before coming out.
When Dawa and Lao Huo carefully dug up the soil and found only one branch and leaf, they thought the ginseng had escaped, and they secretly regretted it. They would never have thought that there would be immortal cultivators who had already used the Earth Escape Technique to capture the ginseng.
After escaping from the ground, Lin Feng continued to walk into the mountains, near Tu'er Ridge, looking for Old Uncle Li.
Dawa and Lao Huo took the spiritual ginseng branches and leaves and continued to search around unwillingly, completely unaware that a black figure appeared behind them.
The man in black punched Da Wa on the back, and Da Wa was knocked to the ground by the huge force. Blood spurted out of his mouth, and his cry of "ah" was weak.
Lao Huo was extremely frightened. When he looked back, his neck was instantly grabbed by the man in black and he could not break free.
"You two losers! How dare you scare the spiritual ginseng away, damn it!" The man in black looked at the spiritual ginseng branches and leaves in Lao Huo's hands and was furious.
"Sir, have mercy on me." An old man ran out from behind the man in black and fell to his knees, his whole body trembling. It was obvious that he did not expect that the man in black would kill again.
"Yang Shenke, you..." Lao Huo recognized the old man, it was Yang Shenke who dug out more than seven taels of mountain ginseng.
"You are still useful, I won't kill you!" The man in black looked at Yang Canke who was kneeling down and said coldly.
"Spare my life!" Lao Huo's neck was pinched until his face turned red, and he begged in a hoarse voice.
"Trash!" The man in black remained unmoved and used his five fingers to twist Lao Huo's neck.
"You dig a hole and bury their bodies!" the man in black ordered.
"Yes, Mr. Wu!" Yang Shenke replied and hurriedly handled the body. In the process, his stomach turned and he vomited.
The man in black sat nearby and watched Yang Canke finish everything before they all stood up.
"Old Yang, the branches and leaves have been broken, and the ginseng has escaped. Is it possible to find and catch it?" the man in black asked sharply.
"Sir, please calm down. Wild ginseng likes to grow in the shade of the mountains and will not hide in the soil forever. In a few days, we will come back and search everywhere, and we can still catch it." Yang Shenke replied hurriedly, even though he knew that he had found the ginseng. The ginseng may have been very small, but I was afraid of angering the man in black and losing my life, so I said against my will that I could still find it.
"It won't work in a few days. The news that you dug up wild ginseng has already spread. It is estimated that there will be people looking for the ginseng. If someone gets caught, the loss will outweigh the gain." The man in black obviously didn't want to give up.
"Okay, sir, let's continue searching." Yang Shenke nodded in agreement.
How did Yang Canke know that the Qiliang mountain ginseng he picked was not an ordinary ginseng, but an earth ginseng with spiritual power that only those who cultivated immortality could recognize.
The man in black is a disciple of the Wu family, Wuchang Long, an outer disciple of the Beast Control Sect. He is at the third level of Qi training. This time he went back to the family. Yang Shenke's wild ginseng was bought at a high price by a core disciple of the Wu family and dedicated to Wuchang Long.
As a cultivator of immortality, Wuchang Long immediately discovered that this wild ginseng tree had earth spiritual power. He was overjoyed and sent someone to bring Yang Canke to the Wu family for questioning.
When Yang Canke learned that wild ginseng usually appears in a male and a female form, he only caught the female ginseng. The male ginseng was huge and escaped.
Wuchang Long hurriedly asked Yang Canke to lead the way and search in the mountains, and promised that if he caught the public counselor, he would be rewarded heavily.
…
Until the sun set and the sky became dark, no one was found, and Lin Feng was worried. However, beside a leeward rock, there was a pile of extinguished fire, and there was also a personal name next to it, which was the mark left by old Uncle Li. Lin Feng tried it with his hands and found that there was still heat. It had been extinguished about two or three hours ago.
After walking all afternoon, Lin Feng was exhausted both physically and mentally. He found some dry firewood and lit a fire in the fire. He took out two pieces of bread and a few pieces of dried meat, put them on branches and put them next to the fire to bake.
Lin Feng sat cross-legged, concentrating and holding his breath, practicing the Thick Earth Technique. As the spiritual power circulated for several large cycles, the physical strength of the exhausted body was quickly restored.
"There's someone!" Lin Feng's ears twitched slightly, and he thought to himself. After finishing his training, he restrained his spiritual power, picked up a piece of baked dough, and ate it.
A young man in black clothes walked out of the woods first, carrying a long sword on his back, with a gleam in his eyes and an extraordinary aura. Behind him was an old man wearing a bamboo hat. The old man was extremely respectful to the young man in gray and followed suit.
"Little brother, we are pilgrims in the mountains. This is my uncle. When I saw the fire here, I stopped by to take a look." The young man in black said very politely.
"It's easy to say that we are destined to meet each other. If you two don't dislike it, let's sit down and have a meal together!" Lin Feng said, secretly wary in his heart. The old man looked like a ginseng digger in the mountains all year round. This black man The young man in clothes knew that he was not a visitor just by looking at his words and demeanor.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Uncle Yang, please bring out the food we brought." The young man in black ordered.
"Yes, yes!" the old man in the bamboo hat replied hurriedly, took off the cloth bag from behind, took out a piece of silk cloth and spread it on the ground, then put the white flour steamed buns, two pots of good wine, one package of roast chicken, and one package Sauce beef and other foods are placed on silk cloth.
Since practicing the Thick Earth Technique, Lin Feng's five senses have become extremely sensitive. He smelled a faint smell of blood on the young man in black, which made Lin Feng feel that this person was not a good person. At the same time, he felt uneasy inside, fearing that Old Uncle Li had been poisoned by this person.
"You two came to collect ginseng in the mountains. Have you ever met a tall hunter who is about forty years old, has a long and slender scar on the left side of his face, and is carrying a long bow?" Lin Feng took a bite of the fragrant dried meat and asked for a test. With.
"You are talking about Li Orion. I know him. Who are you? You..." Yang Shenke heard Ye Feng's description and did not answer. Instead, he asked.
"We haven't met him." The young man in black interrupted Yang Canke and said first.
"I am Li Orion's neighbor. He went hunting in the mountains and did not come home on time yesterday. My family asked me to go into the mountains to look for him," Lin Feng explained.
"The mountains are deep and the roads are long. It is possible that when hunting, I only focus on tracking the prey. The longer the journey, the longer the journey home!" Yang Shenke's eyes were a little dodgey, his expression was unnatural, and he replied with a guilty conscience.
These subtle expressions and movements were all seen by Lin Feng. Lin Feng judged that Yang Shenke must have met Uncle Li. The fact that the other party lied like this showed that Uncle Li's situation was not optimistic.
The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Lin Feng stopped talking and concentrated on eating. Soon the noodles and dried meat were all eaten up. Lin Feng took out the water bag, drank a few sips of water, and put it in his backpack.
Standing up, Lin Feng said: "Go on, you two, I still need to find someone, so I'll go ahead."
"You can't leave. We have important things on this trip. If you wander around in the mountains, it will affect us." The boy in black took a sip of wine and pointed at Lin Feng.
"This friend's request is too much. Tu'erling does not belong to your family. I don't need your consent to do anything I want to do." Lin Feng responded rudely.
"Little brother, you should do as Young Master asks and don't anger him." Yang Shenke said hurriedly, fearing that Lin Feng's life would be in danger. After all, Young Master Wu is a murderer who kills without blinking an eye.
"You are so brave, you dare to talk to me like this. Let me tell you the truth, there is no need to look for the hunter you mentioned. I have already knocked him off the cliff with one punch. If you are sensible and work under me, I will spare you." One life." The young man in black looked proud. If the spiritual ginseng hadn't escaped and he needed manpower, Lin Feng was still useful and could help some search for the spiritual ginseng. He would have been killed with one punch.
