The tall man was already afraid of Qin Mian, but seeing him act so cruelly, he became even more panicked. When Qin Mian stabbed him, he swung his knife and shouted, "Qin Mian, I'm not afraid of you!"
Yelling is to build up courage and to get rid of fear in the heart.
His strength is still relatively strong. Qin Mian stabbed him with a spear, and he slashed him with his sword, using his strength to retreat.
At this time, the civet cat rushed towards Qin Mian, clawing at his face with both claws.
Qin Mian had no way to dodge, so he could only punch him and knock him away.
The tall man was overjoyed when he saw this, turned around and jumped, trying to escape as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, he was also attacked... Another tanuki rushed towards him, also scratching his face with its front paws.
He slashed with his broadsword and chopped off both of its claws.
Taking this opportunity, Qin Mian jumped up again and shot him.
Tarts!
Its momentum is urgent, whirring with wind.
The tall man turned around and raised the knife with both hands to block.
Then he exclaimed.
The force was so great that his hands were numb from the shock, and his whole body was hit and fell to the ground, sinking into the soil.
He stretched out his hand and patted the person, and he quickly ran backward...His head hit the body of Zai Zhi, who had just landed on the ground. He flew more than 10 meters with the civet cat on his head and hit a tree.
He jumped up, then fell back to the sky.
In an extremely tense situation, a Houtian monk was knocked unconscious.
Qin Mian stepped forward, shot across his neck, quickly took off his storage ring, grabbed the big knife, and ran outside.
When checking the surroundings last night, he also detected the storage rings of the two of them, but there was nothing worthy of his taking action; the only ones of some value were their weapons, which were all medium-grade magic weapons.
Buji is currently using a low-grade magic weapon, and this broadsword is very suitable for him.
It's a pity that the short man's long stick has fallen into the territory of the ferocious beast. He doesn't want to take it back, otherwise he will be happy for a while if he gives it to Song Ming...
After running out of Xiao Wang, they saw Buji jumping into the air from a peak and waving their hands, then flew towards them with a smile.
What surprised Qin Mian was that Kan Qi was with them.
Seeing his surprised look, Song Ming smiled and said, "Brother Kanqi was looking for medicinal materials along the ridge, and we happened to meet him here."
Qin Mian asked curiously, "Brother Kanqi, there are level three ferocious beasts in the small dangerous area, and there are also a lot of level two beasts. Why are there no unique medicinal materials?"
Kan Qi smiled and said, "You are not the only one who is confused about this question, many people are like this. Someone once entered the Innate Realm or even the Mortal Realm. It can be said that they conducted an inch-by-inch search, and indeed they only saw some very common medicinal materials."
"They entered not only because of the medicinal materials, but also wanted to understand a phenomenon. There are no large forests for thousands of miles around the small dangerous place, and there are no dangerous areas, which means that there will be no second-level or third-level ferocious beasts entering. Why are there second-level ones here? Where are the level three ferocious beasts?”
"More than three hundred years ago, there was an innate realm that killed the third-level ferocious beasts inside, but within a hundred years, new third-level ferocious beasts appeared. There were no medicinal materials, and they didn't come out to eat people, but there were ferocious beasts. Do you think it’s strange to advance to the third level?”
Qin Mian suddenly remembered that the system showed that the energy of the five elements in the small dangerous area and on the ridge was more intense than that of the sect. Is there any energy source here?
Without energy, it is impossible for ferocious beasts to advance, just like humans. Now that there are level three ferocious beasts here, it means there is an energy source here.
If this is the case, should we take a risk inside and dig out that energy source?
After feeling a little excited for a moment, he asked, "I can't find the reason for the innate realm and the transcendental realm. Isn't there anyone in the Nascent Soul realm who is looking for me?"
Then he explained to himself, "That's right. For Nascent Soul, it's not worth spending time here."
I want to find some time to go on an adventure and see if I can discover anything.
Yuanying doesn't care, he does.
Not to mention the wood element, the earth element is what I need very much, and supplementing it is the same.
Kan Qi nodded in agreement, "The fart is bigger and there is nothing special about it, so there is really no need to spend that time."
Then he asked casually, "Where are the two of them?"
Qin Mian shook his head, "I didn't see the short man. The tall man probably couldn't bear it. Two level three spotted tigers and a large group of level two and level one ferocious beasts. It's hard to escape even if you want to escape."
Anyway, it can’t be said that he took action.
There are so many ferocious beasts, let them take the blame.
Not only do they have to take the blame for those two, but they also have to take the blame for the members of the Du family.
Kanqi sighed softly, "Actually, the two of them were relatively responsible. Once they were robbed and almost killed. Unexpectedly, they changed after that time and did everything."
Qin Mian chuckled, "This shows that they have that kind of talent in their bones, but they just haven't stimulated it before."
Song Ming laughed and said, "Indeed. Human nature, if it weren't for lack of strength, and if it weren't for the suppression of external rules, 99% of people would be the same as them."
Unexpectedly, Kan Qi shook his head and said, "Monk, what you pursue is to do whatever you want, and what you pursue is to improve your realm. Everything else is empty talk. However, some people can stick to some bottom lines, and some people will be addicted to certain foreign objects. Those who are addicted to foreign objects will basically have no future.”
This is obviously something that can only be said by someone with a certain amount of experience and accumulation.
Qin Mian smiled and said, "I wonder what kind of ferocious beast they found, and they actually ventured in to kill it. Now it's good, they risked their own lives."
Then he turned to Kan Qi and asked, "Brother Kan, where are you going next?"
Kan Qi pointed to the front, "Just look for medicinal materials around here."
The person from the front asked, "We're going to the swamp to get eels and go for a walk together?"
He shook his head, "You are from the Zhenyuan Sect, so the risk is relatively small. I am a casual cultivator and I don't want to take risks."
Song Ming asked in surprise, "Is it complicated there?"
Kan Qi laughed and said, "Not only the people of Zhenyuan Sect can eat it, but others can also eat it. You will know how lively it is when you go there."
This question was something Qin Mian had never thought about.
He believed that since it was released as a mission, it should be in a remote place. Although it was more dangerous, there wouldn't be many people... It seemed that Gong Zili had mentioned it at the time, but he didn't pay attention.
Thinking about it this way, I am a little worried about the prospects of this dragon eel hunting operation.
Kan Qi said with a smile, "Don't be pessimistic. Although there are a lot of people, and there may even be Xiantian monks appearing, dragon eels are not so easy to find, otherwise most people will not return empty-handed. With luck, , maybe it’s just a nest...someone found it a few years ago.”
Qin Mian's mood became even worse when he heard that most of the people returned empty-handed, and that some people from the Xiantian realm might appear.
No wonder each article has 20 merit points, so co-authoring can only be done by chance.
He looked at the three of them and asked, "Are you going yet?"
All three of them were a little dull.
After a while, Song Ming muttered, "We are already here, so we have to give it a try. Even if we don't get it, we still have to see the swamp."
Kan Qi smiled and said, "The sect has the benefits of being a sect, but it is also troublesome to complete the task. Although our practice may not be systematic and we have to find our own resources, we are very free."
Qin Mian said, "Brother Kan, let me tell you something. The secret realm of Medicine Valley will be opened within a year, and you can take risks then."
Just because he could come forward and scold those two people, Qin Mian felt that he could tell him this information.
Kanqi's eyes lit up, "You can definitely go there."
After saying goodbye to him, the four of them moved forward at full speed, and finally arrived at the top of a mountain outside Xiqi Marsh at the end of the day. The planned three-day journey was completed in two days.
Looking at the small town more than 30 miles away, the four of them felt their hearts heavy.
Although the town's buildings are simple, they cannot support more than a thousand houses, forming three streets. Both sides of the street were brightly lit and bustling with people.
Song Ming swallowed, "Mom, how come there are so many people in a swamp with a radius of 3,300 miles?"
Turning to look at Qin Mian, "Mianzi, are we still going?"
Qin Mian laughed, "Since you're here, let's go in and take a look. Let's go, find a room to rest for a few hours, or find a restaurant to sit for a while."
There are either wine shops or inns on both sides of the street.
Song Xing chuckled and said, "Looking for a wine shop!"
When he said this, Buji and Gou Sheng agreed...
Walking into the simple streets, someone immediately shouted and asked for business, and they were also ridiculed.
"Would you like the four Zhenyuan Sect geniuses to stay in a hotel? One room costs 100 low-grade Yuanshi."
"Four little brothers, come in and have a meal. Once you're full, you can go into the swamp to catch eels."
"Haha, four rookies dare to come to the swamp. Do you think that catching dragon eels is to pick up dragon eels? Do you think they belong to the Zhenyuan Sect and they will let you pick up the dragon eels?"
"Little brothers, if you want to enter the swamp, you need to know enough about it. We have a map here with detailed notes on where eels have appeared, which caves have eels, and which pools have the possibility of eels. maximum."
"..."
Walking halfway along the street, I found more than 80 small buildings on both sides, either wine shops or inns. I actually saw two Xiantianjing drinking.
When he walked to a wine shop, Qin Mian didn't want to leave and raised his chin, "How about we eat something here and go in in two hours?"
Gou Sheng agreed, "It's good to eat something. Not only do we need to eat the food next to the swamp, but we also need to go in and take a look around, so we can say we have been here in the future."
Four people walked into this restaurant called "Dragon Hunter", and the waiter immediately greeted him, "Welcome the genius of Zhenyuan Zong, our restaurant has braised dragon eel, stir-fried dragon eel, steamed dragon eel, simmered dragon eel, stir-fried dragon eel, stir-fried dragon eel with sausage" Dragon eel liver...and the green lotus tips unique to Xiqi Swamp. What do you four want to eat?"
There are at least 40 names of this Changliucai.
Qin Mian listened attentively at first, but after listening for a few times, his mind wandered.
There are only two people in this restaurant: the boss and the waiter. The boss is in the Houtian realm and cooks in the kitchen; the waiter is in the Qiao realm and welcomes guests in the hall. There are 8 tables in the hall, but now there are only 3 tables with 11 people eating.
No matter the hardware or software, it is impossible to make more than 40 dishes.
After he finished speaking, Qin Mian asked, "How many things are you good at?"
Gou Sheng said disdainfully, "Huan Long Eel, is he the grandson of Long Eel? You can cook so many dishes, but you won't open a shop here."
The waiter smiled awkwardly, but naturally named the six dishes.
Qin Mian asked for them all, and each person asked for a pot of wine weighing one kilogram.
While eating and drinking, Qin Mian asked the waiter about the situation in the swamp. The waiter told him everything he heard, and people from the three tables next to him also added...
After hearing that the maps they sold were basically accurate, Song Ming went out to buy one and studied it while eating...
