"Senior Sister, should we go to Wutuo Ridge in Soul Burial Mountain this time?" Xiao Ding, who was sitting in the spaceship's magic weapon, asked Cheng Yaowa, who was piloting the spaceship.
"No, this time we are going to Qingluan Peak." Senior Sister replied without looking back.
"Qingluan Peak?" Xiao Ding had obviously never heard of this place name.
"Yes, Qingluan Peak is also a peak in the Soul Burying Mountains. I have found the wood spiritual plant Greenwood Purple Fruit there before. Let's go there to try our luck today." Senior Sister explained.
Xiao Ding knew that the purpose of Senior Sister's trip to Soul Burial Mountain this time was to find several main ingredients for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
These main medicinal materials are all high-grade purple spiritual plants, and are divided into five series according to the attributes of the five elements. These include the water spiritual plant Blue Water Purple Lotus, the wood spiritual plant Green Wood Purple Fruit, the fire spiritual plant Red Fire Purple Ganoderma, the gold spiritual plant Lou Jin Purple Sword Bamboo, and the earth spiritual plant Black Soil Purple Ginseng.
Although Xiao Ding knew the names of the five main ingredients for refining the Foundation Building Pill, he didn't know where to find them. But the senior sister was different. She had collected the materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill before, but unfortunately the furnace exploded during the refining process and she could not succeed. Since she was able to gather these medicinal materials before, she can naturally know where to look for them.
The speed of the spaceship magic weapon was very fast, but it still flew from morning to almost dusk before arriving within the scope of Soul Burial Mountain.
This time the two people flew in a different direction than last time, but headed towards another peak.
Qingluan Peak stands among the vast soul-burial mountains, peerless and independent. The mountain is green, the breeze blows, and the forest moves slightly, like a charming beauty wearing a green gauze skirt, dancing gracefully among the mountains.
The senior sister still parked the spacecraft's magical weapon at the foot of Qingluan Peak instead of flying the spacecraft to the top of the peak.
"Today, it's getting late. Let's find a place to rest first, and then go up the mountain to look for purple fruits tomorrow." Cheng Yaowei looked at the sun that was gradually setting and said.
Xiao Ding naturally had no objections. He was originally a follower and obeyed the arrangements of his senior sister.
So, the two found a relatively hidden cave at the foot of Qingluan Peak. After checking, they found no other animals living in the cave, so they decided to stay in the cave tonight.
As night fell, the two of them gathered dry wood and started a bonfire. The elder sister was eager to cook dinner herself, but Xiao Ding persuaded her in time.
The last time he came to Soul Burial Mountain, Xiao Ding had already learned the cooking skills of his senior sister. How could he dare to try it again this time?
So, Xiao Ding took matters into his own hands and roasted two unknown birds they had caught, cooked some rice stored in Xiao Ding's space, and added two wild eggs left over from last time.
The two of them were tall and strong, and they were both good eaters. Although the dinner seemed to be a lot, they still ate it up.
After eating and drinking, senior sister Cheng Yaowen burped and said, "Not to mention, your cooking skills are pretty good. You seem to be a little better than me."
When Xiao Ding heard this, he thought to himself, is that just a little bit stronger? Isn't that a huge difference between heaven and earth?
After the meal, the two got into the cave and prepared to rest. However, the space inside this cave is not large, only less than half the size of a room.
The eldest sister didn't care too much. She found a branch, cleaned the cave, then took out a blanket from the storage bag, spread it in the middle of the cave, and then lay down in the center of the cave, getting ready to sleep.
When Xiao Ding saw it, his heart twitched.
Although the senior sister usually has a carefree personality, she is also a woman! There wasn't much space in the cave, and she was so big. As soon as she lay down on the ground in the center of the cave, Xiao Ding would be right next to the senior sister, no matter whether she slept inside or outside.
Although people who practice martial arts are usually informal, Xiao Ding still has to worry about the reputation of his senior sister. How could he sleep next to the senior sister?
Just as he was about to say something to remind the senior sister, he heard the senior sister snoring and already fell asleep.
Xiao Ding frowned and had no choice but to take out a blanket from the space, spread it at the entrance of the cave, and lay down at the entrance of the cave. There is a few feet away from the senior sister here, so it is not right next to the senior sister.
Fortunately, it was early summer and the weather was getting warmer. Even at night it was not very cold. On the contrary, there was a cool breeze blowing at the entrance of the cave, which made it more comfortable.
However, not long after Xiao Ding lay down and closed his eyes, he was awakened by a buzzing sound. When he opened his eyes, he saw a swarm of mosquitoes as big as dragonflies on Earth flying around his face.
OMG! How come the mosquitoes on Kunlun are so big today?
If you are bitten, it will not be as simple as giving a red envelope. This is simply a small blood drawing machine! If all the mosquitoes sucked blood, 400cc of blood would be lost. Even if it is a voluntary blood donation, it cannot be given to mosquitoes!
Without thinking, Xiao Ding waved his sleeves and used his spiritual power to sweep towards the group of mosquitoes.
Although these mosquitoes are not small in size, they are all ordinary mosquitoes and cannot resist Xiao Ding's sweep. They were all swept to the ground by Xiao Ding's sleeves, causing them to curl up.
Looking at the mosquitoes falling on the ground, Xiao Ding felt a chill in his heart. Fortunately, he was not asleep yet. If he was sucked by these mosquitoes at night, he would have to suck his own blood dry!
Turning to look outside the cave, his eyes fell on the bonfire used for cooking during dinner. It seems that the only way to prevent mosquitoes from entering is by moving the bonfire to the entrance of the cave.
Thinking of this, he got up and took action immediately. He first moved the dry firewood he had collected to the entrance of the cave, and then used the burning stick in the fire to light the dry firewood at the entrance of the cave.
Later, Xiao Ding got into the cave again.
This time, although the mosquitoes were blocked, a fire was blocked at the entrance of the cave, and there was no longer the cool breeze.
Xiao Ding lay down back to where he was before, thinking that he should make some insect repellent medicine when he had time and take it with him so that he would not attract mosquitoes.
Without the harassment of mosquitoes, Xiao Ding soon fell asleep.
However, people who practice martial arts have sensitive five senses, and even if they sleep, they will be a little more alert than ordinary people.
After sleeping late at night, Xiao Ding suddenly felt a chill out of thin air in his sleep. He immediately opened his eyes and saw that the temperature of the bonfire at the entrance of the cave seemed to have dropped a lot. There were blue flames jumping on the flames, and it seemed that it was not as burning as before.
How is this going?
While he was doubting, Xiao Ding suddenly felt a shadow on his body flash, and a figure stepped over him, jumped out of the cave, and then disappeared into the darkness.
This dead woman! Don't you know it's rude to step over a man?
Xiao Ding secretly cursed in his heart and looked at the place where the senior sister had slept. At this time, only the blanket was left.
It seems that she must have discovered something wrong outside the cave, and without saying hello, she just stepped over her and chased him out of the cave.
As the senior sister chased him out, the chill that Xiao Ding felt just now gradually went away.
Xiao Ding also got up and came outside the cave. He opened his eyes and looked around, but found nothing unusual. He took a few steps forward and found that the bonfire he had lit for dinner had burned out, leaving a pile of ashes on the ground. And there was actually a pair of large footprints printed on the ashes.
It can be vaguely seen that these are the footprints of a pair of people, but they are much larger than ordinary people's footprints.
Xiao Ding was observing the pair of footprints on the ashes, when the senior sister returned.
"I didn't catch up." The senior sister saw Xiao Ding standing outside the cave and said.
"Who is he?" Xiao Ding asked.
"Human? Not human." The senior sister was stunned for a moment and said.
"If it's not a human being, what is it?" Xiao Ding wondered.
"It should be a ghost from the Netherworld." Senior Sister replied.
Xiao Ding was shocked. He didn't know where the Netherworld was, but he knew something about ghosts.
When he was on earth, before he traveled to the ancient Song Dynasty, he was a soldier. At that time, he never believed that there were ghosts and monsters in the world. Later, after he traveled to the Song Dynasty and witnessed with his own eyes the ghosts raised by the evil sect Lingyou Castle at that time, he had to believe that there were indeed some fantasy things in this world that could not be explained by science.
Therefore, he didn't feel surprised when he heard the senior sister say there was a ghost today, but he didn't expect to encounter a ghost here.
Xiao Ding pointed to the big footprints in the ashes on the ground and said, "Sister, look, it stood here just now."
After taking a look at the footprints, the senior sister said: "It's possible, but unfortunately it had already escaped when I came out. I just chased it along its cold breath for a while, but I didn't catch anything, so I came back."
"Sister, what is the Netherworld?" Xiao Ding asked curiously.
"The Nether Realm is where ghosts gather. There are four main continents on our Tiankun planet, namely Fengluan Continent in the west, Huaxuan Continent in the east, Xuewang Continent in the north, and Yueshuo Continent in the south. Among them, The Fengluan Continent and the Huaxuan Continent in the east where we live are mainly populated by humans; while the Yueshuo Continent in the south is dominated by demon cultivators; and the Xuewang Continent in the north is dominated by demon cultivators and ghost cultivators. The main gathering place. But this does not mean that there is a single subject on each continent, but on the four main continents, there will be people, demons, demons and ghosts existing at the same time, but the number is different." Senior Sister explained road.
"So, there are ghost cultivators on our Fengluan Continent?" Xiao Ding then asked.
"Yes, the Netherworld I am talking about is on our Fengluan Continent. It is said that this Netherworld is connected to Beiwangzhou. However, I heard that the Netherworld is in the northernmost part of Fengluan Continent, but I didn't Been there." Senior Sister replied.
"That's it." Xiao Ding also frowned after hearing this.
The two continued to return to the cave to sleep. The senior sister still lay down in the original position, and Xiao Ding had no choice but to continue sleeping at the entrance of the cave.
Seeing Xiao Ding sleeping at the entrance of the cave, Senior Sister asked strangely: "Junior Brother Tian, why don't you sleep inside?"
Xiao Ding glanced at the small place inside, shook his head, and said, "I'll just sleep at the entrance of the cave."
The senior sister looked at Xiao Ding with strange eyes and said, "What are you afraid of? If you sleep next to me, are you afraid that I will eat you? Hahaha!"
Xiao Ding smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't tell me, I'm really afraid that the senior sister will eat me." He continued secretly in his heart, I have a wife, I can't let such a strong woman like you It’s eaten.
After the two joked for a while, they both fell asleep one after another.
But not long after sleeping, Xiao Ding was startled awake again by the same chill as before.
He quietly opened his eyes, opened his eyes, and looked out through the firelight at the entrance of the cave. He saw a tall, scary-looking ghost figure, stretching his neck and looking towards the entrance of the cave...
