With Xu Tiezhu's head dangling on its own, the three of them embarked on a journey to find the monster based on its falling direction.
Xu Tiezhu thought that this trip might take months or even years, but who knew that in the afternoon, he had already roughly locked the direction of the spirit.
It turned out to be a barren mountain, a place Xu Tiezhu had visited in the past few years.
Seeing this, Xu Tiezhu looked a little ugly and was terrified. If he encountered that spirit again when he came here before, how would he survive?
This barren mountain is neither big nor small. It is not easy to find it in half a day.
Moreover, neither Xu Tiezhu nor Cheng Baiyu dared to leave Ye Ming, so the three of them could only search together.
However, Ye Ming was completely unserious, crazy and looked very unreliable.
Seeing this, Cheng Baiyu felt a little frightened. He didn't want his neck to soften and his head to fall to the ground and die.
"Brother Shanyuan, the spirit is in the mountain. You should quickly cast a spell to capture this spirit!"
Hearing this, Ye Ming pointed at the two of them and smiled:
"I've done all the work, what else do you need to do?"
"We also want to help, but we don't have the ability!"
Xu Tiezhu was a little helpless. As a witness, he was very afraid of the monster.
Ye Ming smiled, pointed to a tree not far away and said:
"Then let you have some skills in dealing with monsters."
After saying that, he asked Xu Tiezhu to cut the tree open.
Xu Tiezhu was very good at this job and could cut the tree open in just a few strokes.
There is something strange about this tree. After it is cut open, juice flows out.
Ye Ming pointed to the juice flowing out of the heart of the tree and said:
"Why are you still standing there? Pick it up!"
When Xu Tiezhu heard this, he felt like he was waking up from a dream, and immediately used a water bottle to collect the sap from the heart of the tree.
When Cheng Baiyu saw this, for the sake of his own safety, he also used a water belt to pick it up.
After the two of them were filled, Ye Ming smiled and said:
"Smear this on your body and weapons, and you can deal with the monster."
When the two heard this, they quickly took action.
For safety reasons, Cheng Bai also painted a lot of paint on the old slingshot and specially prepared a bag of stones to hang on his body.
Also drizzle some juice on the stones.
After everything was ready, both of them felt confident.
Xu Tiezhu said:
"After entering this barren mountain, my head started to move. I thought the spirit was moving. How should I look for it?"
"Now that we are here, it is unreasonable for the other party not to receive guests. There is no need to look for them, just wait here."
Ye Ming said, already lying next to a tree to rest.
The two of them felt quite helpless when they saw this, but they had no choice but to wait here.
After walking for a long time, the two of them were tired, so they took out dry food to eat to replenish their strength.
Since the water belt was full of sap from the tree, they did not dare to drink it randomly. When they saw a pond not far away, they took knives and sticks and went to the pond to drink water.
Xu Tiezhu was careful and first tested the water with a silver needle. After seeing that there was no problem, he and Cheng Baiyu took turns drinking water.
Xu Tiezhu saw that there were many lotus leaves in the pond. They were still very green in this season and showed no signs of withering. He picked a larger one, held some water, and brought it to Ye Ming.
"God, please drink some water."
"Well, okay!"
Ye Ming reached out to take it, but couldn't hold it firmly. All the water in the lotus leaf spilled on the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Tiezhu wanted to help Ye Ming get water again.
But Ye Ming just waved his hands like crying and laughing, indicating that he didn't need to get water.
Seeing this, Xu Tiezhu thought that the god was angry with him, so he felt a little resentful and blamed himself.
As the night fell, Ye Ming rested leisurely by the tree, covered with a wool blanket provided by Xu Tiezhu.
Cheng Baiyu and Xu Tiezhu couldn't sleep here, they kept looking around.
But from the time they arrived until now, everything has been business as usual.
Many times, the waiting before something happens is the most irritating.
Both of them, who were highly stressed, felt quite tired in the second half of the night. They felt a little overwhelmed and wanted to sleep.
But they both knew that they might be in danger, so they tried their best not to sleep.
Holding on, holding on, Cheng Baiyu suddenly smelled a little fragrance, like the fresh fragrance of lotus.
No, in this season, how can there be... floral fragrance.
After Cheng Baiyu smelled the fragrance of the flowers, his whole body relaxed. Fatigue came over him. He sat down on the ground and was about to lie down and fall asleep.
The same was true for Xu Tiezhu on the side, but when he sat down, his chin was hit by the wooden board around his neck.
In pain, Xu Tiezhu suddenly woke up and slapped Cheng Baiyu on the face.
"Scholar, wake up quickly, there is a problem!"
After being slapped, Cheng Baiyu also woke up, stood up and looked around.
The two of them looked at it and found that the lotus flowers in the small pond were blooming, exuding bursts of fragrance, which made people feel quite comfortable.
In the middle of the pond, there is a white lotus flower as big as one person. Its buds are closed and tend to open gradually.
When the two of them saw this, they were both shocked and looked over together.
At this moment, an old dwarf man less than four feet tall suddenly emerged from behind a tree not far away.
As soon as the old man appeared, he let out a strange laugh, opened his mouth and exhaled, and shot it at Cheng Baiyu.
Cheng Baiyu didn't have time to react. He only had time to face the dwarf old man and was shot in the chest by that breath.
The old dwarf man laughed proudly when he saw this.
But then, he couldn't help but laugh.
Because Cheng Baiyu was obviously shot, but nothing happened and he was fine.
Cheng Baiyu was also startled and subconsciously touched his chest.
Only then did he realize that the dwarf old man's breath actually hit the ebony plate on his chest.
For some reason, the ebony plate that was shot was slightly warm.
But there was no time to think too much at this time, Cheng Baiyu quickly raised the slingshot in his hand and took out the stones from the bag of stones at his waist.
I took out the stone and was about to launch it when I suddenly felt something was wrong in my hand.
Taking a closer look, he saw what kind of stone he was holding in his hand. It turned out to be the "elixir" he had taken before.
Glancing at Ye Ming, who was sleeping soundly under the tree from the corner of his eye, Cheng Baiyu swallowed the "elixir" in one gulp.
After taking the elixir into my stomach, I immediately felt powerful and confident.
Seeing that the attack was ineffective, the dwarf's expression changed and he stepped back.
Seeing this, Cheng Baiyu rushed forward, trying to catch the dwarf old man.
As soon as Fang rushed into the bushes, he heard a crash, and Cheng Baiyu was knocked out.
Looking carefully, a strong buffalo burst out of the bushes.
This means that Cheng Baiyu took the elixir, otherwise the collision just now would definitely have killed him.
After Cheng Baiyu fell, he didn't feel hurt. He immediately got up. When he saw the buffalo running towards him, he grabbed the buffalo's horns with both hands and wrestled with it.
At this time, the dwarf old man emerged from the forest again and wanted to sneak attack Cheng Baiyu.
Although Xu Tiezhu was a little scared when he saw the dwarf old man, his background in the military was still there. He drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot out an arrow.
The dwarf old man turned sideways and dodged the arrow.
But Xu Tiezhu shot the arrow very quickly and immediately added another arrow.
The old dwarf man failed to escape this time and was shot in the shoulder by an arrow. The juice on the arrow burned him in great pain. He screamed and hid in the nearby bushes, disappearing without a trace.
Cheng Baiyu, who had the strength of nine cows and two tigers, knocked the buffalo down and pinned it to the ground. The buffalo struggled, but to no avail.
Seeing this, Xu Tiezhu pulled out the knife from his waist and wanted to help kill the cow.
At this time, the fragrance of the lotus in the small pond became stronger. Both of them felt that they had lost their fighting spirit and just wanted to sleep peacefully.
Looking again at the small pond, the largest lotus bud was gradually opening, and there seemed to be a young woman appearing inside.
Xu Tiezhu was so shocked when he saw this that he didn't bother to kill the cow. He drew his bow and arrow and shot at the flower bud.
The arrow flew out and entered the small pond. Many water vines grew out of the pond and entangled the arrow.
Seeing that the bud was about to fully unfold, Xu Tiezhu kept shooting arrows.
But all the arrows were entangled in water vines and failed to work.
Cheng Baiyu, who was a little confused, realized that the situation was not good. He used all his strength to pick up the buffalo and threw it towards the small pond. The water vines flew out and entangled the buffalo, which weighed several hundred kilograms, and placed it steadily on the ground. .
After throwing the buffalo, Cheng Baiyu immediately used his slingshot to flick stones and attack the flower buds.
At this time, the flower bud just opened, and a young woman wearing a maid's uniform from hundreds of years ago appeared.
The water vine failed to catch the flying pebbles. The maid, who originally looked quiet and beautiful, was standing on the lotus. She was about to open her eyes with great temperament, but the pebble hit her between the eyebrows.
"ah!"
The maid let out a very humiliating cry of pain, her eyes suddenly opened, and she looked at Cheng Baiyu.
Cheng Baiyu saw that the other party was not scary looking, and could even be said to be good-looking, so he felt no psychological pressure at all.
As a person who has no eyes for other women, he is unambiguous in his attacks and continuously provokes stone attacks.
Mizuto was unable to stop the stone, causing the maid to be hit several times in succession.
The maid screamed, looking very angry. The surrounding water rippled and countless water vines appeared and fell directly towards the two people opposite.
Xu Tiezhu's face turned pale when he saw so many water vines. At the critical moment, he squeezed out the juice from the water belt and poured it on the many water vines.
The water vine was splashed with juice, making bursts of "sizzling" sounds and white smoke rising.
Seeing this, the maid whipped the buffalo on the butt with a water cane.
Some of the buffaloes who were afraid of being forced by Cheng Baiyu kicked their hooves on the ground, made a cow cry, and rushed towards Xu Tiezhu.
Seeing this, Cheng Baiyu quickly stepped forward, stopped the buffalo, and overturned it to the ground.
At this time, the dwarf old man who had not dealt with the arrows suddenly appeared again and breathed on Cheng Baiyu's neck.
Cheng Baiyu failed to escape and was hit in the neck.
Then, he discovered that the energy was directly absorbed by the ebony disk on his chest, and he was fine with it.
When the dwarf old man saw this, he burst into tears and looked like he had been greatly wronged.
The maid on the lotus saw that the buffalo and the dwarf old man were both indifferent, and her face darkened. She touched her cheek that was swollen from the stones, and her expression looked a little distorted.
The next moment, the water in the small pond began to bubble, and the water surface quickly turned black.
Seeing this, Cheng Baiyu didn't want to see the other party succeed and hit the stone again to attack the maid.
But this time, just as the pebbles flew into the air, a broad-bladed sword suddenly appeared in the water, blocking the way.
The stone hit the broadsword and was bounced aside.
Then a skeleton monster holding a big knife stood out from the pond.
As this monster stood up, one skeleton monster after another stood up in the black water of the pond.
These monsters are all made of various bones, both human and animal.
The skeleton monsters all hold weapons of various styles.
Each one exudes a strong Yin Qi and looks particularly terrifying.
Cheng Baiyu and Xu Tiezhu couldn't help but vomited when they saw that the pond was full of such things.
They all drank water from this pond before...
When the maid standing on the lotus saw the two of them like this, a sneer appeared on her lips. She stretched out her hand and saw a group of skeleton monsters heading towards the two of them with weapons.
The two people, who were feeling nauseated and vomiting, turned pale and despaired when they saw so many monsters.
At this time, I suddenly heard Ye Ming’s voice:
"You guys are so noisy if you don't sleep at night!"
The maid heard the sound and looked towards Ye Ming.
For some reason, she had been "ignoring" this sleeping person for such a long time.
This is very abnormal.
