287 Pick the jade from the fire fern

(287 Picking Jade Flame Ferns)

Although Mu Luo disdains the use of various foreign objects made by humans, she is not an ordinary dryad, and she has learned a lot from various human Xuanmen classics, so she is also quite familiar with the names of these rare treasures among humans.

Glancing at the hot lava lake below, Wood was terrified. In his opinion, even if he goes down a little bit, he can't stand it, and he actually has to go to the lake to pick some scorching fire ferns?

But if she doesn't care about this person, she has no eyes left, and she stays in this cave and walks around, not to mention the countless hungry ghosts and wandering ghosts outside, I'm afraid that she will fall into the crater by herself after only a few steps.

"But down there...... ...... will heat people to death."

"Come here, give me back the sword. Mu Luo beckoned gently. Although she can't get up, her hands can move.

As the wood approached, he could only smell the smell of burnt flesh. Mu Luo took back the short sword, grabbed the little hair she had left, cut it in a small piece, and said, "Take this in your mouth." ”

Wood obediently shoved this handful of hair in his mouth. Although it smelled of burning, it didn't resemble hair, but rather some kind of cool young plant leaf. Suddenly, a feeling of clear spring spread throughout the body, and even the hot air around him seemed to cool down.

"That's right, my green radish leaves contain water and wood aura, and water can overcome fire, which is enough for you to support when you go down. As long as you don't fall into the lava lake, you can't die. ”

Mu Luo had just been hit head-on by the lava fire smoke on the crater, and it was also because of the abundant water and wood aura in the blood in her body that she survived proudly. Otherwise, it would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Mu was quite surprised, it was the first time he had seen someone actually keep plants on their heads as a cultivation method for hair.

"But I don't recognize ...... That kind of grass. ”

"It's simple. The fire fern has a light, shining on my body, and I can feel it. You carry me on your back and walk around the lake, and I'll tell you to stop wherever it is. ”

"This ......"

It doesn't sound like a lot of trouble. In a place like Golden State, it's impossible to find a crater in the outside world, and there are lava lakes that have been around for years. But now that the lava lake was in sight, he only had to go down and pick two seeds to help the man regain his sight.

But the question is, why did he do this? He didn't do anything, but halfway through to save the next person......

It would be nice if Gou Zhu was here, or Song Ruhai would be here. Mu Tou usually has no idea of his own, just listen to the two senior brothers in everything. As long as they have an idea, he will do it steadfastly. But this time, no one gave him an idea.

He finally carried the man on his back and walked down the edge of the cliff step by step. In his mind, this person was a mass of charred heavy charcoal, not a woman at all. But she could still speak, and he couldn't talk to her.

Although Mu Luo is heavy, fortunately, Mu Tou has a lot of strength, and he is also a monk who builds a fourfold foundation. The true qi in the body is running, and it is not very difficult to carry this heavy object on its back.

"It's a good bow. "The wood had a huge wooden flying bow on his back. Mu Luo stroked the wooden bow and vaguely felt a familiar aura. But before she could understand it in detail, the wood had already snatched the bow, took it off, and held it in her own hand.

"Don't touch my stuff!"

Ever since the ancestral hunting bow was cut by Minoru Kakura, Mu has used the wooden flying bow as a substitute and cherishes it very much.

"Hmph, it's just a broken bow!"

The crater was huge, and the lava lake alone was four or five miles in radius. Where they were, there was a very steep cliff, and a hundred feet below was boiling lava, and every now and then bubbles burst, and black smoke filled with fire poison rose into the sky. Climbing down from here is almost impossible.

But a mile or two further on, some of the rocky slopes are gentle. Walk the wood to a gentle place, and then carefully descend along the crevices of the rocks.

The closer you get to the lava lake, the more intense the choking fire poison in the air. And the temperature is getting higher and higher. Even the rocks on which they were stepping on were getting hotter and hotter. Everywhere he passed, there were black rocks, like a black hot mire, but it had just solidified.

After a while, the ground became flatter and flatter. As far as the eye can see, the wood is a dark plain. The ground was filled with lava like a gentle wave, frozen here like molten sugar. Ahead, a fiery red fog swept in, and the images seen in the air distorted and fluttered with the heat.

If it weren't for the magical green radish leaves in his mouth, there was always a cool aura of water and wood flowing in his body, and the wood really couldn't reach here. It's just that to what extent this water and wood aura can resist this heat wave, he can't be sure.

Wood stubbornly walked a mile or so into the fire mist, and found that the rocks on the ground were softening. Not only that, but under the dark exterior, there is a faint red light. The thick cloth shoes on the soles of his feet seemed to have begun to smoke.

At this time, he looked up and saw that the entire sky in front of him was already a boiling fire mist. Clouds of fire, like silk, floated in the air. Black smoke appeared out of nowhere above the cloud of fire, then thickened and rolled high into the air. The blazing red light shone on his face, so hot that he almost smelled the smell of the meat coming from his face.

"Moving forward...... Just die...... It's dead!"

"I don't have to go, I feel it. Mu Luo stretched out her black arm and pointed at it. Although she couldn't see it, she could still feel the spiritual light of the bright sun and fire fern shining on her face.

And the wood, which has long been roasted to the point of dizziness, has not noticed anything.

Looking in the direction that Mu Luo was pointing, the wood really noticed something unusual. The fire fern does not stand upright like grass and trees, but crawls on the half-soft and half-congealed lava, and its whole body is bright and fiery red. At first glance, it looks like a crack in a pitch-black solidified rock filled with fiery red lava. If it weren't for Mu Luo's fingers, he would have missed it at a glance.

"The fire fern is so hot that you can't pick it by hand. But the seeds of the fire fern were wrapped in the aura of water and wood, but they were cold. You can take it off with your hands. ”

The wood is too hot to stand here. I had already trotted all the way over, and I wanted to quickly pick it up and pull it down.

The scorching fire fern was only about a foot long, and its main trunk was divided into three branches, and its whole body was shimmering with firelight, like a red-hot wire. At the end of each branch there are remnants of fallen petals. The rest of the pedicle was as large as a jujube, but it was dark black and there was no fire.

The wood peeled off the flower pedicle, revealing a crystal bead like jade, which was cold to the hand and green throughout. But there was a red fiery light in it, swimming among the turquoise beads. There are three pedicles and three seeds on the three branches.

He quickly peeled them off and put them in the palm of his hand, then quickly retreated, and ran for more than a mile with Mu Luo on his back before he reached a slightly safe place.

At this time, Mu Luo knocked him twice in the back and said, "Give it to me." Wood didn't even think about it, and handed over the three flame beads. Mu Luo smiled, "Fool, do you think I'm a three-eyed monster? Today you have done a good job in protecting the Lord, and the Lord will reward you with this one left. With that, he handed out the smallest of them.

The wood took it, and suddenly I felt inexplicable. This thing was obviously picked up by himself at the risk of running to this lava lake, how did it become something that others rewarded him?

He didn't have time to be depressed, but he saw that under the red light behind him, three pitch-black humanoid shadows appeared on the hillside in front of him. The men stood motionless, not looking like ghosts. But Mu also knew that they were not Gou Zhu and others.

"Finally someone!" Wood was overjoyed and ran over.

All three were dressed in black, with hats and a wide black cape. If it weren't for the red light of the lake of fire at this moment, the wood would have seen them as three black rocks.

Seeing the wood coming, one of them raised his face, but it was a man with a white face and a scholar's face. When he saw the arrival of the wood, he made a joke and said with a smile: "This fellow Daoist, I don't know what you have to do when you visit my Zongyu from the Fire Lake?"

These three people turned out to be monks with a five-fold foundation!

Mu Tou thought to himself: Not good, this lava lake originally belonged to their family? The Xuanmen Sect attaches great importance to the territory, and it is already very dangerous to enter his sect's territory by mistake, not to mention that he also picked other people's spiritual grass. He was nervous for a moment, and he didn't know what to say, but he heard another big man among the three laugh wildly:

"Senior Brother Mu, our brothers have been patrolling here for more than two years, and we are looking at the scorching sun and fire ferns below, but none of us have the ability to pick them. They picked it for us, and you didn't take it generously?"

Senior Brother Mu, who had a white scholar's face, ignored him, but said to Mu: "This Taoist friend must have entered my realm by mistake. If you take anything here, please return it here. We are also ordered to act here, please don't embarrass us. ”

Mu Tou secretly thought, the so-called melon field and plum is not right, not to mention that he really took other people's things. But those two flame beads have already been given to the person on his back, and there is no reason to come back. At this time, he also had an idea, took out the flame bead in his hand and threw it over, and said:

"Take it...... Excuse me. Then he bowed and walked away.

The other of the three was quite short and thin, with two beards on his mouth, and a thin voice, but he reminded him on the side: "This person has built a fourfold foundation like us, but he can go down to the lake to collect fire beads, and he is not afraid of the heat and fire poison below, so he must have some secret treasure here." When we do it, we must be careful not to hurt his life first, and we must torture this secret treasure first. ”

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the other two showed fire. You know, I don't know how many scorching sun and fire ferns are on the edge of this lava lake, and they have been watching it for two years. If they had picked a few more, they would have made a fortune!

When Mu heard him say this, he secretly screamed in his heart. When he looked up again, he realized that the three of them had already occupied one direction, and their eyes were all greedy and smiling, surrounding him in the middle.
