Mystery Leaks

Chapter 615 Monster Beast
"Is this vermillion fruit useful to uncle?" I asked Huang Mao in a low voice.

"It's useful, but it can't save lives." Huang Mao said, and then explained: "There is a difference between spiritual fruit and precious medicine. Spiritual fruit mainly replenishes spiritual energy and is mainly used for cultivation; while precious medicine focuses on medicinal properties, and its effects are more diverse. , my father has been imprisoned in a dark secret room for more than ten years, and the essence and oil are exhausted, so we must find precious medicines that strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence."

I nodded. Precious medicines are equivalent to medicinal herbs. Generally speaking, they have the dual attributes of spiritual fruits and medicines, which are rarer than pure spiritual fruits.

Some legendary medicines can be called flesh and bones of the living dead. They can bring the dead back to life, and can make the bones regenerate flesh, which is unimaginable.

Zhu Guo was taken away by Liang Song, Guanghua disappeared in a blink of an eye, obviously wearing a ring in his hand.

I shook my head, it seems that unless we get the precious medicine ourselves, we have to rob once.

Successfully and relatively easily picked a vermilion fruit, the morale of the team has improved a lot, picking a vermilion fruit so quickly proves that Liang Song is not lying, this is a treasure land.

Don't talk about them, even Huangmao and I are happy.

We were not disappointed here.

But at the same time, I am also worried, the bat demon can slaughter so many people, what will happen if I encounter a more powerful monster?
More importantly, is this the secret place where the monster race lives in seclusion?If so, the risk is not so high.

Once encountering the siege of the monster clan, the casualties will be heavy, and the entire army may be wiped out.

Afterwards, the team continued to move forward and collected a few more good-looking spirit fruits. Although they were not as good as vermilion fruits, they did not have guardian beasts, and the picking was safe and smooth.

Liang Song who came here obviously had no direction, he just walked straight in one direction, and then spread the people out a little, searching forward.

After about half an hour of touching, the first precious medicine appeared.

It was a whole body white plant, some precious medicine like cockscomb, about two feet high, without leaves, under the slightly dim moonlight, it emitted a dense white light, and white air floated upwards, The breeze blows, accompanied by a faint fragrance.

It is a medicinal fragrance, which is relatively strong, and it will be mature soon.

It is in a slightly dark forest, about 20 meters away from the edge, and the dense white light illuminates the surroundings.The crowd became commotion, and a large part of the spiritual materials and precious medicines could know its approximate grade just by looking at its appearance.

This thing is more eye-catching than Zhu Guo before.

Even Liang Song's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly waved his hands to tell everyone to get down and not stand up.

Everyone squatted down hurriedly, staring at the woods.

"What kind of medicine is this?" I asked Huang Mao in a low voice. I only read a part of Faxing's pharmacopoeia, and I haven't accumulated enough.

"This should be Phoenix Coronet. The medicine is at least 300 years old. Judging by its color, it will be fully mature in three to five months." Huang Mao said.

I nodded, precious medicine and spiritual fruit both have a maturity period.

The effect after maturity is naturally the best, and the goodness is not just a little bit, but twice the difference.

That is to say, when the precious medicine and spiritual fruit are fully ripe, the effect will be more than double that of when it is not ripe, only a little more.

Even if it is only one stick of incense short of being fully ripe, the efficacy of the medicine will be half that of a stick of incense.

This is also the reason why there are guardian beasts easily lurking next to the spiritual fruit and the precious medicine. They wait for the precious medicine and spiritual fruit to ripen. Once they are ripe, they will swallow them without hesitation.

Generally speaking, the more advanced the guardian beasts with spiritual materials, the stronger they are, because the lower guardian beasts will be expelled by the more powerful guardian beasts. After the screening, the strong ones will naturally remain.

Moreover, after the elixir and the precious medicine are mature, they will soon wither and wither, just like the epiphyllum, and maturity is the last bloom of its life.

However, as herb pickers, we naturally cannot wait until the spiritual fruits and precious medicines are fully mature, as long as there are more than seven to half ripe.

The effect is almost there, and that is something that can't be helped. You can't spend three to five months waiting here.

"Is there a Guardian Beast?" Huangmao asked me.

I nodded. The phoenix crown flower emits such a dense light that it will definitely attract the guardian beast. More importantly, in the dark part of the forest where the phoenix crown flower's brilliance cannot shine, I clearly sense a dangerous aura.

"Is it very strong?" Huangmao asked again.

I nodded again, the first to send up, nine out of ten will be unlucky.

But how powerful it is, I'm not sure, I can only watch, this secret place has raised something, there is nothing wrong with being wretched, I can't rush up and volunteer.

I'm not a bad guy, but I'm not a bad guy either.

Soon, Liang Song sent a group of people, and the two unlucky guys were unfortunately caught on the wheel. They approached the edge of the forest cautiously, picked up a small stone and threw it there, asking for directions as before.

The stone fell to the ground, and the forest was quiet, without causing any changes.

But I noticed that the breath inside was obviously fluctuating.

Without realizing it, the two looked at each other, picked up another fist-sized stone, and threw it into it forcefully.

This time the movement was much stronger than that of a small stone, with a muffled "boom".

Suddenly there was a flash of green light in the forest, it was the light from the pupils of the eyes, it disappeared in a flash, and soon disappeared.

At the same time, there was a soft sound of "噗嗤", and there was a sound of sharp piercing into the flesh. The two guys didn't even have time to scream, and fell to the ground, twitching all over.

"Damn it, instant kill!" Huang Mao exclaimed in shock.

"Long-range attack." I also said, this thing was too fast, and it disappeared in a flash, even I only saw a faint black shadow, which can only be judged to be a four-horned monster.

"Big master, I have encountered a hard idea." Hu Sandao said to Liang Song at this time.

Liang Song frowned and didn't speak. The monster disappeared with one blow. This is the most troublesome situation. The death of the two people sent by the representative is almost meaningless.

"Pull the corpse back first and see what it is." Wu Chengqiu said.

Immediately, there were three or five people who responded, took out their claws and ran forward and threw them at the two fallen people. The aim was very good, but only one person's claws missed, two hooks and one person dragged the two corpses away. return.

Everyone gasped when they saw it.

I saw that the two of them were covered with green spikes, each of which was like a steel needle, and they almost didn't fall anywhere.Green venom also flowed out from the stab wound, with a strong fishy smell, which made the scalp tingle.

"What the hell?" Hu Sandao's expression changed slightly.

Everyone was amazed, no one could answer his question, this secret land was unfamiliar to everyone.

"It should be a monster similar to a porcupine, except that its spikes can be shot from a long distance. It is fast and can be aimed high at the head. It is also very concealed and has a large coverage area. It is a bit difficult to deal with." After a long time, Wu Chengqiu said.

This Wu Chengqiu looked like a think-tank, and he was highly valued by Liang Song. He was able to sit in the second place not only because of his strength.

Liang Song nodded and said, "Turn on the light and see what the hell it is."

The group nodded, and immediately turned on the strong flashlight, shooting it into the forest, illuminating the darkness beside the precious medicine.

At first glance, there were indeed several bulging small dirt bags next to it.

Obviously, this monster will have a big hole.

I just don’t know if it’s a single animal that has made several holes, or it lives in groups. The flashlight only illuminates one side, so I can’t see the thing.

"Wow, come on, get a better shot, and throw me a firecracker." Liang Song gritted his teeth and said, "Be careful, don't blow up the precious medicine."

"Liu Xiaohu, you go." Hu Sandao immediately pointed to a very short person beside him.

"Yes." The man responded, took out a black "cantaloupe" from the bag, estimated the distance, ran forward for a while, and threw the ring.

After "Cantaloupe" fell into the mound with incomparable precision, he turned around and fled without even looking at it.

"Oh!"

The fire was accompanied by a loud noise, and the mound collapsed instantly.

"Roar!"

Immediately afterwards, a furious roar came from behind the mound, and a black figure leaped onto the mound, staring at the crowd, with cold killing intent in its green eyes.

This is really a porcupine monster, its whole body is covered with dense spikes like steel needles.

It's just that it's much bigger than a porcupine, strictly speaking, it looks like a black bear.
