The group left the hut and walked along a mountain road.

On the way, Yu Chu and the two miscellaneous servants did not speak, only Bai Suxin and the other two people talked in a whisper. From their conversation, Yu Chu learned that the pock-faced man's name was Zhou Chong, and he was a disciple of Changkong Gate. The thin bamboo pole is named He Yuanyi, and he is a disciple of the Baiyang faction.

Changkong Gate and Baiyang Sect are both sects near Baitou Mountain, and in the Yunhui City, one hundred and thirty miles west of Baitou Mountain, the strength of the sect is slightly inferior to that of Baixuanmen. Zhou Chong and He Yuanyi are both personal disciples in their respective sects, and like Bai Suxin, they have the strength of the innate realm.

As for the two handymen, they are also very skilled. At first glance, it was clear that they were all masters among the martial artists, at least not weaker than Xiaoping.

After some time, I walked outside a valley that was shrouded in fog and I couldn't see what was inside.

Everyone stopped outside the valley, and Zhou Chong introduced, "Senior Sister Bai, this is the Poisonous Mist Valley. The mist at the mouth of the valley contains a highly poisonous substance, which can erode the internal strength of the warrior and the true qi of the monk. If you are not careful, the poisonous mist will penetrate the skin and enter the body. Once the poisonous mist enters the body, the true qi is eroded, and it will become a waste. Therefore, we must first disperse the fog at the mouth of the valley before we can enter. ”

Bai Suxin said: "There is Senior Brother Lao Zhou." ”

Zhou Chong said: "Senior Sister Bai is too polite. ”

Then he turned to one of the servants, whom he had brought, named Zhou Fu, and cried, "Zhou Fu, take out the orchid herbs and smoke away the mist." ”

&Childe. Zhou Fu agreed, put down the bag on his back, and then looked at Yu Chu, "The orchid herb is in your bag, take it out quickly." ”

Yu Chu put down the bag and opened the bag, he didn't know the orchid vanilla, and said to Zhou Fu: "You come to find it." ”

Zhou Fu came up, reached into the bag, and grabbed two handfuls of hay out. The grass is fragrant and has the aroma of orchids.

Zhou Fu took out the fire fold, shook it casually, and lit the two handfuls of hay. He took a handful in one hand, then brought it to his mouth and blew hard to extinguish the flames. The two handfuls of orchid herbs emitted a thick white smoke, and the smoke also exuded a rich orchid aroma.

Zhou Fu took the orchid herb and walked directly to the valley, and the smoke of the orchid herb was released, driving the mist away.

Zhou Chong waved his hand, "The smoke of the orchid herb is strong, and it can expel the mist at the mouth of the Poisonous Fog Valley in a short time, let's keep up." ”

Bai Suxin and He Yuanyi followed, and Yu Chu also followed. Another servant, He Kang, picked up Zhou Fu's bag and followed.

The group continued to walk inward, and walked for about half a mile before they came out of the range of the poisonous fog.

Yu Chu looked around, and at this time he had already reached the valley, the valley was very deep, with extremely high cliffs on both sides, and the valley was full of rocks. Occasionally, you can see some strange low trees, shrubs, and waterlogged swamps, which exude a desolate atmosphere everywhere.

Everyone did not stop, walked for a while, and when they reached a waterhole, Zhou Chong waved his hand, and everyone stopped.

Zhou Chong turned his head with a solemn expression, and introduced: "The waterhole is where the chalcedony fungus is located." But inside the waterhole, there is a red line snake guarding it. This red-line snake has at least the strength of the late congenital stage, no less than triple or even quadruple, and if you want to get the chalcedony fungus, you must first lure this red-line snake away. ”

Bai Su thought for a moment and said, "Chalcedony mushrooms transform qi and replenish the yuan, and cleanse the marrow and refine the body, which is an excellent thing for our monks. Being able to speed up cultivation and break through quickly can't be avoided. Taking a large amount of chalcedony mushrooms at one time can improve cultivation in a short period of time. However, after the potency, the side effects are also powerful, and the strength is damaged at the least, and the cultivation is reduced at the worst. It can't be used lightly, and when you encounter a strong enemy of similar strength, it's not bad to save your life. ”

He Yuanyi shook his head and said, "What the white girl said is true." But the three of us are all congenital. The white girl's cultivation is the highest, and it is only a late stage. With only the three of us, trying to snatch the chalcedony fungus from the hands of the red thread snake that is equivalent to the late congenital stage, triple or quadruple, is tantamount to a fool's dream. ”

Zhou Chong interjected: "So you have to lure the red thread snake away first." ”

He Yuanyi asked, "Do you have a way?"

Zhou Chong said worriedly: "There is a way, but it has never worked, and I don't know if it will work." ”

He Yuanyi was overjoyed and said busily: "If there is a way, it's good to try." ”

Bai Suxin suddenly asked, "Where is the chalcedony fungus, why didn't I see it?"

Zhou Chong stretched out his hand and pointed at the pool, "It's right there." ”

Bai Suxin stared at the past.

Yu Chu also followed. The waterhole is a waterfall that falls from the top of a mountain and gathers water. Directly above the waterhole, next to the cliff face, about five or six meters high, there is a large protruding rock.

The large stone is round, like a tray, facing the sun. The stone face is smooth, with some small protruding foreign bodies.

But Zhou Chong introduced: "The chalcedony fungus is the essence that grows from the stone by the aura of heaven and earth, shining by the sun and the moon. This stone, where it is located, is relatively special, the aura of heaven and earth is rich, and it can be directly exposed to sunlight and moonlight, and every once in a while, on the stone, some chalcedony bacteria will grow. ”

& A red snake stays here, and when the chalcedony fungus gathers to a certain amount, it eats it, about once a year. We came by coincidence, the chalcedony fungus produced this year, the red line snake has not had time to eat. You see, the tiny protrusions on the stone are chalcedony. As long as we lure the red snake away and buy a certain amount of time, we can climb to the stone and scrape the chalcedony fungus off. There are so many chalcedony fungi, according to my estimate, even if there is no one or two, three or four dollars are still available. Three people get a point, and each person gets at least a penny. With this money chalcedony fungus, even if it can't break through to the innate double, there will definitely be a substantial increase in cultivation. ”

Bai Suxin pondered for a moment, obviously moved. Her cultivation has reached the late stage of the congenital double, and she is about to break through to the innate double, if she has a penny of chalcedony fungus, maybe it won't take a month to break through to the innate double.

Immediately asked, "How to lead away?"

Zhou Chong said with a smile: "Among the three of us, Senior Sister Bai is learning the kamikaze finger, and Senior Brother He is the mountain breaking knife. There is only one younger brother, who has a long-range attack method, and he practices triple arrows. To lure the red snake away, the little brother asked himself, it's better to leave it to me. Of course, if you have other ideas, you can also say it. ”

Bai Suxin thought for a while before nodding and saying, "I agree with Senior Brother Zhou's proposal. ”

He Yuanyi echoed: "I also agree." ”

Zhou Chong said: "Then it's decided." However, to lure away the red snake is tantamount to risking your own life. This is an extremely dangerous task, and I want to get an extra share of the chalcedony fungus. If the two of them have different opinions, they can also put it forward, if which one is willing to lure away the red snake and let him take one more percent, I Zhou Chong has no objection. ”

Bai Suxin and He Yuanyi fell silent, and they felt a little too much in the form of chalcedony fungus. But what Zhou Chong said is also good, luring away the red snake is equivalent to risking his own life. Therefore, from this point of view, it is reasonable for the other party to ask for more than one percent.

The two thought for several minutes before reluctantly agreeing.

Zhou Chongxi said: "Let's just say it, I'll lure away the red snake, and the chalcedony fungus I get, I want forty percent, two of them and three percent each." ”

He Yuanyi didn't talk nonsense, and urged: "Senior Brother Zhou, please." ”

Zhou Chong said: "Wait a minute, I will go to the other side first, and then lead the red snake away." ”

Bai Suxin said: "Please, Senior Brother Zhou." ”

> said. Zhou Chong took off the longbow, then went to his arms and touched it, touched a leather bag and came out, poured it into his hand, and poured out a handful of iron beads.

His longbow does not shoot arrows, but beads of iron. Even if it is an iron bead, which condenses the true qi of an innate master, and shoots out, it is not inferior to a feather arrow.

What's more, what Zhou Chong used was not an ordinary archery technique, but a secret triple arrow. One arrow is shot out, plus the secret technique, which is equivalent to three arrows in a row.

Of these three arrows, only the first one is real. The last two arrows are condensed through the luck method of the triple arrow secret technique, using the innate true qi. Although it is false, it is no less powerful than a real arrow.

In addition, the iron beads shot out by Zhou Chong as feather arrows are not ordinary iron beads, but dark iron beads made of meteorite black iron. The weight is heavy, the power is powerful, and when an arrow is shot, it has the amazing power of destroying the withering and decaying.

Yu Chu quietly stared at this person. He has seen a lot of innate masters, but he still doesn't know how strong the strength of innate masters is. As for the use of secret arts, I have never seen it before.

But seeing Zhou Chong stand up from the spot, his body shook, and he floated towards the other side of the pool.

Yu Chu only felt a flower in front of him, and Zhou Chong had already floated out more than ten zhang away.

>> Hurry!" Yu Chu was taken aback.

He could see that Zhou Chong did not use any light body exercises, but simply relied on his own movement to reach that speed. And this speed is at least several times faster than his Qingyun step.

This is the strength of the innate master, the embodiment of the strength of the innate one-fold realm - the light body realm. At this point, the acquired true qi turns into innate true qi, breaks through the ** mortal fetus, eliminates the turbidity of the body, and the body is light, almost no weight.

Without the weight of the body, it is much faster to move.

Bai Suxin stretched out his hand and took the lead to hide behind a big rock.

Zhou Chong's feet did not stop, far away, until he reached the other side of the waterhole. Suddenly, he bent down, picked up a stone from the ground, aimed it at the pool, and threw it hard.

&

The stone fell into the water and splashed in layers.

But when a commotion was heard, a gray-black strange snake jumped out of the water. The gray-black strange snake had a pair of small white horns on its head, about two meters long, and red lines on its body, which were connected from the neck to the tail.

Yu Chu knew that this was what Bai Suxin called the red line snake. Such an inconspicuous little snake has the strength of three or even four innate times, if it weren't for Bai Suxin and them, it would be hard for Yu Chu to believe it.

Bai Suxin made a gesture, and everyone held their breath, not daring to make any sound, just staring at Zhou Chong's movements from behind the stone.

But seeing that Zhou Chong took out a dark iron bead, bent his bow and set up an arrow, aimed at the red-line snake, and shot it with an arrow. After the arrow was fired, he did not dare to stop, and turned and fled.

This time, he used the light body technique, and his speed was even faster.
