Chapter 1229, Picking Zidai Flowers
Lu Feng thought that Xue Zi'er cared about his brother, so he couldn't bear to order him to leave, so he let her follow him.
The three of them followed the direction pointed by Li Weiyun and quickly arrived at the mountain col.
Indeed, as Li Weiyun said, a large-scale melee took place here.
The rocks are rugged, the vegetation is messy, and all kinds of traces of battles are everywhere.
The mottled blood stains here and there have dried up.
Lu Feng's soul consciousness was running, and after he didn't sense anyone's breath near the mountain col, he motioned for the two girls to approach.
Although Lu Feng was a little surprised that he couldn't see a single figure, seeing Chu Youwei running eagerly towards the col and carefully rummaging through the gravel and the edge of the mountain wall, he couldn't help but turn his attention to looking for Zidaihua.
After Chu Youwei came to this mountain col, she saw that the aura of the place was moderate, the soil was moist and sticky, the terrain was stable and the light was sufficient, and she was looking for a relatively easterly area along the way. She couldn't help but become more convinced of the possibility of the existence of Zidaihua. .
After some searching, we found quite a lot of camellias, azaleas and peonies from various types, but there was no sign of any daisy flowers.
This made Chu Youwei feel a little anxious.
Seeing this, Xue Zier comforted her: "This mountain col is quite big. This is just the outer part. Maybe if you want to find flowers, you have to go inside. Tell me what are the characteristics of the flowers? I'll go over there and help you look for them." .”
Chu Youwei thought for a while and said: "From the appearance, Zidai flowers are somewhat similar to ordinary iris flowers, but in most cases, they are pink in color. From a distance, they look like flying iris flowers. The pink butterfly among the green grass is very easy to identify.”
Xue Zier secretly made a note and carefully leaned towards the other side of the col.
Not long after, I heard a sudden exclamation.
Lu Feng and Chu Youwei were surprised and quickly stopped searching and rushed towards him.
As Lu Feng approached, he faintly sensed slight movement passing deep in the mountain col. He secretly thought that Xue Zi'er was in some kind of danger, but when he got closer and saw the scene around him, he couldn't help but gasp. Cool air.
A series of charred shadows, horizontal and vertical 'imprints' were carved on the soil, and all kinds of weapons, packages, portable swords, jade pendants, etc. were scattered around messily.
When Xue Zi'er saw Lu Feng coming, her nervous and frightened heartstrings were relieved a little. She pointed at the black shadow not far away and said in a trembling voice: "They, what were they burned alive like this?"
Chu Youwei was also so frightened by the scene in front of her that her pretty face turned pale and she was speechless for a moment.
Lu Feng secretly sensed the lingering aura in the charred shadows, and couldn't help but feel solemnity on his face.
The death appearance of the people in front of them was somewhat similar to that of the two Linghuze brothers. They were all injured by techniques such as the Bone Phosphorus Divine Palm, and were burned alive until not even ashes were left.
But from this aura, Lu Feng sensed an aura that was even colder than death from the Bone Phosphorus God's Palm. Even with the fire energy flowing, he couldn't help but shudder at the aura.
It seems that its quality should be comparable to that of the Southern God's Fire. Even if it is slightly inferior, it will not be too far away, and it is definitely not comparable to the Bone Phosphorus Fire.
Look at the scorched black shadows on the ground. They are very regular and show no signs of struggle at all. It seems that they were all killed instantly.
Chu Youwei calmed down and said in surprise: "Did they encounter a powerful moon corpse?"
Xue Zi'er looked at the objects scattered around, pointed at one of the dark swords, and added: "I know that sword, it is the Tengjiao sword of Zhou Bubai of the Chicha Sword Sect. He was also a figure on the Qingban. , after so many years, even if the strength is not in the Heavenly Soul realm, it should not be far away. Even he was killed so easily. If it was really the moon zombie, they may have encountered the most powerful red-robed moon zombie. "
"It's not a moon corpse," Lu Feng's face became more solemn, "I'm afraid they encountered a fire-type soul beast."
"Soul beast?" Both women were shocked.
Lu Feng nodded solemnly, and he caught a hint of vague animal aura from the remaining aura of the burnt black shadow.
Chu Youwei suppressed the panic in her heart and quietly observed and sensed it. The original intention was to see what kind of soul beast it was and to see if it was still nearby, but she suddenly smelled a wisp of misty fragrance, intermittent Floating from the depths of the mountain col.
The thought of sensing the soul beast was interrupted instantly.
Chu Youwei looked into the distance and said in surprise: "The fragrance of Zidai flowers..."
After hearing this, Lu Feng also came back to his senses, thought for a moment and said, "There are dangers here. If you go deeper, you can't guarantee that you won't encounter this evil fire-type soul beast."
The surprise on Chu Youwei's face suddenly froze.
Lu Feng continued: "You stay here, I will go over and pick the Zidai flowers."
Chu Youwei said awkwardly: "The picking method of Zidaihua is special, so I have to go there myself. Otherwise, even if I pick it back, it will be difficult to cultivate it."
Lu Feng showed hesitation. Although he had learned some Zidai flower picking techniques from Lin Xiaowan, those techniques were unique to the Chu family and were not passed on to outsiders. Given his current status, he rashly claimed that he knew how to do it. , inevitably breeds suspicion.
Chu Youwei said timidly: "Let's be careful and pick some and leave. We shouldn't disturb those spirit beasts."
Lu Feng had no choice but to agree, and looked at Xue Zi'er, seeing that she was packing up the objects scattered around by the charred shadow when she was alive, including a few valuable treasures.
Xue Zi'er felt Lu Feng's gaze, smiled coquettishly, and raised the Air Holding Token in her hand, "It just so happens that we have this shortcoming. It would be a waste not to take it after seeing it."
After handing over those Heavenly Swords to Lu Feng, Xue Zier's hands could be said to be empty-handed. Now that she was packing them, they were not burdensome at all and were still very light.
The three of them followed the ethereal fragrance and moved deeper.
After walking about dozens of steps, they rounded a corner.
Chu Youwei suddenly came from behind Lu Feng and gently grabbed his arm.
Lu Feng also stopped at the same time, looking forward with a shocked gaze. Looking back, he suddenly saw Chu Youwei pointing at a cluster of flowers in the southeast corner with a face full of surprise.
The flower cluster is half a meter wide and consists of strange-shaped flowers. Each flower is thirty or forty centimeters in height. Outside the green flower stems, crisp and elegant long leaves stand from bottom to top like sharp swords. Holding it, holding the gorgeous pink-and-daisy flowers on the top, from a distance, it really looks like beautiful pink-and-daisy butterflies flying gracefully among the green and pink flowers.
Zidaihua! Finally found it!
Chu Youwei's excited words condensed. She originally gently grabbed Lu Feng's hand to stop it, but at this moment, due to the excitement in her heart, she strangled Lu Feng's arm tightly.
It wasn't until Lu Feng was struggling in pain that Chu Youwei came back to her senses. She secretly felt that she was losing her composure, and her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
In excitement, he stepped towards the group of Daihua flowers.
However, Lu Feng and Xue Zier stopped him at the same time.
Chu Youwei was shocked and confused.
Xue Zier whispered two words: "East."
Chu Youwei was startled and looked deeper into the col. His face suddenly turned from red to white. There was a giant lion with a red mane, a domineering shape and a fierce look resting there.
The lion was only a few dozen meters away from the flowers. If it was disturbed rashly, it would be difficult to escape.
Chu Youwei broke into a cold sweat and suddenly felt that she was too careless. She only noticed the appearance of Zi Daihua and ignored the danger of the environment for a moment.
"Is it Zhou Bubai and his party who were burned to death by the soul beast?"
Xue Zier lowered her voice nervously. She vaguely sensed a burst of fire energy from the red lion, which reminded her of the deaths of those people before.
Lu Feng shook his head and said solemnly: "This is the Hongyan Demon Lion."
Xue Zier was startled, recalling what Li Weiyun mentioned, "Are the people from Beast Valley still here?"
Lu Feng secretly felt his surroundings. Although the appearance of the Hongyan Demonic Lion did not completely indicate that the people from Beast Valley were nearby, it could at least indicate that the disciples from Beast Valley should not be among the group of people who were burned to death. Otherwise, this one was burned to death. The tamed Hongyan Demonic Lion would never rest here so peacefully. It must have gone crazy and started fighting with the burning soul beast.
After some sensing, Lu Feng did not sense any aura appearing.
At the moment, they protected Chu Youwei and slowly moved towards Zi Daihua, concealing each other's breath and trying their best not to disturb the Hongyan Demon Lion in the distance.
Although the aura at the late stage of Hongyan Demon Lion Earth Soul Realm is not enough to pose a big threat, if it takes action and its explosive fire energy is raging, there is no chance that it will be hard-won and has been sought for a long time. The Zidaihua was destroyed.
As he got closer, it became clear that everything was going smoothly, but Lu Feng's eyelids twitched inadvertently, and a faint feeling of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
He looked towards the Zidai flower cluster.
As she got closer, Lu Feng couldn't help but be even more shocked by Zi Daihua's beauty.
The leaves are green and crisp, and the flowers are lively and beautiful.
Each flower stem is wrapped by two long sword leaves, protecting the long stem from bottom to top.
One stem is matched with one flower. The flowers on the top of each stem are composed of regular four-wheeled and three-numbered petals. The four petals at the bottom are spread out at the four corners, like the tail of a kite, pulling slightly, like Four small hands hold the three petals standing upright on it.
The surrounding air is filled with an elegant floral fragrance, which gathers together but never disperses, does not intrude or disturb, and smells very natural and comfortable.
Only when the breeze blows by, will such wisps of fragrance drift out. It also lasts for a long time, flying freely in the sky with the wind.
At this time, Chu Youwei's hands have gathered a gentle and gentle aura, and she is slowly touching one of the daisy flowers, gently caressing it along its stem, penetrating the mud layer, and looking for the bottom of it. Thin and very fragile fibrous roots.
"Roar~"
Just when Chu Youwei sensed the distribution of fibrous roots underneath, the Hongyan Demon Lion in the distance seemed to sense something and suddenly let out a mournful roar.
Disturbed by this, Chu Youwei became unsteady in panic, and the Zidaihua in her hand broke.
The first picking ended in failure.
