Chapter 588: Black Mud Swamp

In less than a day, Xi Bai rushed to the black mud swamp, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he was a little dumbfounded, unlike the gorgeous scenery of the Star Sea, this black mud swamp is definitely worthy of his name!

It's all dark here! The black mud, the black water, even the grass looks so dirty! Xi Bai's brows are tightly locked, in this kind of place, there will be a plant like Fengminghua? The name Fengminghua, no matter how you look at it, is associated with the black mud swamp!

Xi Bai looked at it, this black mud swamp was very large, it looked endless, and there were no animals in it, only mosquitoes! He frowned suddenly, wondering how could this scene feel so familiar? But he had never been to the Sea of Stars, and he had never been to another swamp, let alone such a special place as the Black Mud Swamp.

"Chase after it, don't let that little thing run away!"

Just when Xi Bai was stunned, an eager voice suddenly sounded in the distance, and before he could react, he saw a white shadow rushing past him, directly into the black mud swamp, and when he looked again, he found that it was a snow-white little fox, which was in stark contrast to the surrounding black environment.

The snow-white little fox was fast, and it was like walking on the ground in this black mud swamp, and it disappeared in a moment.

"Alas! Let that little thing run away again! A chagrined voice sounded behind Xi Bai, and before he could turn around, he heard the man continue: "Kid over there, you obviously saw that little thing just now, why didn't you catch it?" ”

Xi Bai frowned, this was obviously talking to him, but why did he catch the little fox? Does it have anything to do with him?

Xi Bai turned around and saw five people standing behind him, all dressed in animal skins, one of them had big shoulders and a round waist, just what he said, and the other was as pale as paper, and at first glance he had suffered internal injuries.

Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, and a lightning bolt crossed his brain, which ...... Isn't this the Shi family brothers! He glanced at the Black Muddy Swamp again, could this be the Black Dragon Pool? Where does Aunt Ying live? How did you change your name? No wonder he just felt familiar, it turned out to be a scene from a novel.

Just looking at the expressions of the Shi brothers, I don't remember him at all at this moment, you must know that when they were guarding Xiangyang, they fought side by side together! He frowned, but for a moment he was relieved, thinking that guarding Xiangyang was just a systematic activity, and the NPCs that appeared there were isolated and had no effect on the overall game background.

So now the Shi brothers don't know him, and it's purely normal. Xi Bai smiled slightly and said, "Are you brothers of the Shi family?" ”

The big man with a big waist and a round waist was stunned when he heard this, and said, "You know us?" ”

Xi Bai nodded and said, "Your name has naturally been heard before, this must be Brother Shi, right?" ”

"Haha, I can't imagine the names of the five of us, even outsiders know it?" Brother Shi laughed.

"I don't know if this is Uncle Shi and the third brother of Shi? I don't know if Third Brother Shi has suffered internal injuries? Xi Bai didn't want to talk to them, looking at their appearance, it should be that Uncle Shi had just been injured by Huo Du and was looking for the blood of the nine-tailed spirit fox to heal, he knew this plot, so he asked directly to see if he could receive the task.

It's just that Xi Bai doesn't know if this is because he is just in time for this time, or whether everyone who comes here for the first time will trigger this plot, of course, whether he can receive the task or not, that is the most important thing.

"Hello little brother, it's Shi Shugang below, can you see my injury? I wonder if it can be cured? Shi Shugang's voice was a little weak, obviously not lightly injured.

Xi Bai shook his head slightly, in fact, he knew that he only needed to catch the nine-tailed spirit fox, but the other party also knew about this matter, and it was useless for him to say it, so it was better to pretend not to know.

Xi Bai shook his head, the Shi brothers were suddenly disappointed, and Brother Shi said, "Hey! We have found a way to heal the third brother's injury, we only need to catch the nine-tailed spirit fox, but that little thing is cunning and suspicious by nature, and it is fast, we were about to catch it just now, but we didn't expect it to run away! Now that little thing ran into the black mud swamp, and now I'm afraid it's hard to catch it! ”

"Big brother doesn't need to say it, maybe this is fate, my fate should be like this!" Uncle Shi shook his head and said.

Xi Bai raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said secretly, this is really not Black Dragon Pond? And a black mud swamp? So is there any Aunt Ying here? This plot seems to be a little different from what he thought!

"Third Brother Shi, do you know that there are people living in this black mud swamp?" Xi Bai asked tentatively.

"It is impossible for anyone to live in it, the periphery of this black mud swamp is fine, but the environment is too poor, but the further inside, the more poison there is, and the poisonous miasma drifts from time to time, and it is a swamp that is easy to fall into, how can anyone live in it." Uncle Shi just shook his head again and again and said.

Hearing what the other party said, Xi Bai was basically sure that this was really not Black Dragon Pond, and there would be no Aunt Ying, he originally thought that he would go to Baihua Valley directly to invite the old naughty boy Zhou Botong according to the plot, and this matter would be solved, but now it seems that it is not so easy.

Xi Bai pondered for a moment, now he has no news of Feng Minghua, he just doesn't know if there is any news from the Shi brothers, but looking at their appearance, they are all focused on the nine-tailed spirit fox, I am afraid that they can't ask, it seems that they still have to heal Shi Shugang's injuries first.

"Third Brother Shi, I don't know if there is any other way to catch the nine-tailed spirit fox? Just now, I was also careless, so I let the nine-tailed spirit fox go, and I wanted to make up for it. "There is no way, Xi Bai can only take the initiative to seek tasks by himself.

Uncle Shi shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, even if we don't have you, we won't be able to catch the nine-tailed spirit fox, it's just ...... When it comes to catching the nine-tailed spirit fox, you still have to enter the black mud swamp. ”

Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, knowing that the key was coming, and hurriedly asked, "Oh, in that case, I don't know how to enter this black mud swamp?" ”

"The periphery of this black mud swamp is basically impossible to set foot in, the wood chips can't float, and there are a lot of poisons inside, and there must be a person who knows a lot about poisons and knows how to detoxify them, so that it is possible to enter it safely." Brother Shi explained.

Xi Bai frowned obediently, this peripheral matter is easy to solve, after all, it is in the plot of the novel! However, this poison matter, since the other party has brought it up, he has to deal with it carefully, although his poison resistance is not low now, and he has a chance to be immune to poisons with cold and heat attributes, but he does not dare to enter it easily.

Xi Bai sighed and said that he was good at using poison to detoxify, he really knew one, and the other party was definitely not afraid of this small black mud swamp, but he really didn't want to find the other party, that's right, this person was the "Yin Queen" Yin Nine Candle who had just separated from him!

"Third Brother Shi, do you know that there is a plant like Fengming Flower in this black mud swamp?" Xi Bai tentatively asked for news of Feng Minghua.

Uncle Shi just frowned, thought hard, for a while, suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "You say that, I really remember, I once accidentally entered the black mud swamp, of course, I didn't go deep into it, just on the periphery, but at that time, I seemed to hear the sound of a phoenix chirping from the black mud swamp, my heart jumped at the time, and I thought it was some rare beast." Little brother, you also know that we live by domesticating beasts, how can we miss this rare beast when we encounter it! ”

"In the end, as soon as I gritted my teeth, I decided to go inside and have a look, but what I didn't expect was that I had just stepped into the inner circle of the black mud swamp and was poisoned! I fought hard to resist, but it was still to no avail, I thought I was just going to die there, but it turned out that my eldest brother came and rescued me, and hired a famous doctor, and treated me for three months, so that the poison was removed, and when I was about to fall into a coma after being poisoned, I seemed to see a bright orange-yellow flower in the black mud swamp, and I thought it was the phoenix flower you were looking for. ”

"Oh! Then does Third Brother Shi remember where that place is? Xi Bai didn't expect the other party to really know the news, so he hurriedly asked again.

But seeing Uncle Shi just sighed, shook his head and said, "It's a pity, I just ran in chaos at the beginning, and I didn't remember the route at all, big brother, do you remember?" ”

"I don't remember either, speaking of which, I was also dizzy that day, and I was also poisoned, and it was pure luck to be able to rescue the third brother." Brother Shi also shook his head.

Xi Bai's face was full of disappointment, he originally thought that he had found a clue, but the clue suddenly broke again! Of course, it's not that there is no news at all, at least he knows now that there is indeed a phoenix in this black mud swamp.

Just when Xi Bai was thinking about how to enter the Black Mud Swamp, he heard Shi Shugang say: "Although I don't remember where that place is, I just don't remember how to get there, if I can enter the Black Mud Swamp again, maybe I can still remember, but unfortunately I am injured now and can't enter it, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you, little brother." ”

Xi Bai was stunned when he heard this, didn't he know what this meant? This obviously means that you have to heal Shi Shugang first before you can get the news! After going around like this, it turns out that you still have to complete this task!

Xi Bai suddenly said: "Third Brother Shi is polite, let's do it, I'll see if I can enter the black mud swamp and catch the nine-tailed spirit fox." ”

"Oh? If you can catch it, thank you so much, little brother! In this way, if Zaixia's injuries can be cured, he will fight for his life, and he will accompany his little brother into the black mud swamp again to find the phoenix flower! Uncle Shi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said categorically.

At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Xi Bai's ears: "Ding! Uncle Shi just issued a task to you, please go to the black mud swamp to capture the nine-tailed spirit fox, and if you succeed, you can get Uncle Shi's favor, and the other party is willing to do something for you. Do you accept it? ”
