"Eh? Why is this man's hair black?" Hua Xiaolu saw Lin Fei's true appearance and was immediately attracted to Lin Fei's black hair.
Lin Fei noticed Hua Xiaolu's curious eyes and said calmly, "I am a businessman from a distant place. The people there all have hair of this color."
"So he's a foreigner!" Hua Xiaolu nodded and accepted Lin Fei's explanation. After all, everyone has the same parents, only the color of their hair is different.
Moreover, in Hua Xiaolu's opinion, blue hair and black hair look equally good.
After resting for ten minutes, the two continued to move forward.
"My father doesn't seem to have gone this way." Hua Xiaolu said while clearing the road.
"When I went up the mountain just now, I felt a little strange. I didn't see any other man-made traces along the way." Lin Fei said.
"My father must have walked another way!" Hua Xiaolu said with some confusion, "I haven't gone into the mountains with my father for a long time. Could it be that he found another route."
An idea suddenly flashed through Lin Fei's mind. Hua Xiaolu also turned her head at this time, and both of them saw the same idea from each other's expressions.
"Unless the road is dangerous."
"Be careful, your father cannot give up this familiar road for no reason." Lin Fei reminded Hua Xiaolu who was leading the way.
Hua Xiaolu nodded and immediately became more vigilant and cautious.
The two of them walked for more than half an hour, but they still encountered no danger as they imagined. Hua Xiaolu breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, just when Hua Xiaolu relaxed her vigilance, her feet seemed to step on something.
Hua Xiaolu's whole body froze, and she did not dare to act rashly. She slowly lowered her head and looked down.
She saw an insect nest that looked like a haystack under her feet, almost blending in with the dead branches and leaves on the ground. It was very inconspicuous, so she relaxed for a moment and stepped on it without noticing.
Of course Lin Fei also saw this scene. Seeing that she was still stunned, he quickly pulled her back.
"Buzz buzz..."
The next moment, a dense buzzing sound began, and a group of brown flying insects the size of fingernails flew out of the insect nest and rushed towards Lin Fei and Hua Xiaolu with a splash.
Not only that, but a bunch of flightless bugs appeared on the ground, which were much larger than those flying bugs.
If you observe carefully, you will find that these reptiles have big heads and ferocious mouthparts. They are very fast and swarm toward Lin Fei and Hua Xiaolu like a swarm of swarms.
"It's over, these are saw-toothed flying insects and alien beasts!" Hua Xiaolu's face turned pale. She was cautious all the way, thinking of many possible dangers, but she didn't expect that it would be a nest of saw-toothed flying insects and alien beasts.
These saw-toothed flying insects and alien beasts do not have much attack power individually, but they come in groups, with a terrifying number of tens or hundreds of thousands in one nest, and there is basically no way to survive in an encounter.
She heard her father mention it, saying that when he was a child and went hunting with others in the mountains, he saw this kind of strange beast surrounding and killing large animals. The scene was very tragic.
Later, this strange beast was exterminated by the city guards, but unexpectedly it appeared in the mountains again.
At this time, saw-toothed flying insects and beasts came out in full force, a group in the sky, a group on the ground, and the black mass rushed towards the two people, which made people feel numb.
"Boss Lin, I'm sorry, it was me who hurt you." Hua Xiaolu said with a tearful tone and guilt.
"What are you apologizing for? It's just a nest of bugs, and it can't kill anyone." Lin Fei said calmly.
Seeing that Hua Xiaolu was so frightened, spiritual energy surged out of her body, and scorching breaths appeared around the two of them out of thin air.
"Peng."
Clusters of small flames divided into two teams and faced the saw-toothed flying insects and beasts in the sky and below.
"boom!"
The black, saw-toothed flying insects and beasts immediately turned into two seas of fire, and were burned completely in an instant, leaving only a pile of ashes.
Under Lin Fei's control, the fire did not spread to the surrounding vegetation and was extinguished in an instant.
"Practitioner, what an amazing practitioner!" Hua Xiaolu stared at Lin Fei with wide eyes. She thought Lin Fei was just an ordinary businessman, but she never expected that he was actually a practitioner who had awakened his superpower.
In the blink of an eye, a large group of saw-toothed flying insects and alien beasts were eliminated. Hua Xiaolu felt that she had gained a lot of knowledge.
"Let's go!" Lin Fei's voice brought Hua Xiaolu back to reality from the shock, and she subconsciously walked forward, but she was still absent-minded.
"Cheer up and don't step on anything you shouldn't step on. If it's a poisonous snake or the like, it bites you and I can't save you." Lin Fei reminded.
Hua Xiaolu suddenly came back to her senses, roused herself, and no longer dared to take things lightly. At the same time, she said in a very admiring tone, "Boss Lin, you are so awesome."
"It's not bad! As a businessman who travels all over the world, it won't work if he doesn't have some strength." Lin Fei said casually.
…………
The sun rises higher and higher in the sky.
Finally, at almost eleven o'clock, the two of them arrived at a cliff.
"This is it." Hua Xiaolu stopped, looked at the surrounding environment, and said, "My father has seen it here before. Look for it."
Lin Fei glanced around and saw no trace of Lingzhi. He launched a sensory inspection, then walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.
"It's true." He smiled slightly and jumped down amidst Hua Xiaolu's exclamation.
The cliff is covered with various grasses, trees and vines. Among them, there is a plant growing in the grass that exudes a pale golden spiritual light. It is the spiritual plant that Hua Xiaolu was talking about.
Although this spiritual plant does not seem to be very high-end, it is at least a genuine spiritual plant that can bear spiritual fruits. This can be confirmed by the few small green fruits hanging on its branches.
As Lin Fei jumped down, he reached out to grab a vine, uprooted the spiritual plant, and then swung it gently. When he was about to go up, a black shadow suddenly flew out from the grass and attacked Lin Fei.
"Be careful!" Hua Xiaolu from above exclaimed.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time." Lin Fei, who had discovered the opponent from the beginning through previous sensory exploration, curled his lips, waved his palm, and hot flames poured out, and the black shadow burned with flames all over his body and screamed.
Went down the cliff.
This is clearly a black snake-like beast. Because the color is similar to the surrounding vegetation, it is difficult to find it hidden in the grass.
"Stop hiding, hurry up if you want to come out!" Lin Fei said to the grass in front of him.
As soon as he finished speaking, several black snake-like beasts sprang out from the grass, opening their mouths and biting Lin Fei in mid-air.
"boom."
Lin Fei used his fire attack again and easily eliminated these snake-like beasts that were seeking their own death.
These snake-like beasts all use spiritual attack powers. If ordinary people are attacked by them when picking spiritual plants, the result will be disastrous without exception.
It's a pity that their enemy is Lin Fei. Those mental attack powers are like mosquito bites against Lin Fei's strong mental power, unable to shake him at all.
Lin Fei kicked his left foot on the bulge of the cliff and returned to the cliff, landing lightly next to Hua Xiaolu.
"It's done, let's go back." Lin Fei took out a flower pot from the dimensional space, planted the spiritual plant in the pot, and turned to Hua Xiaolu and said.
"It's over!" Hua Xiaolu hadn't recovered yet.
This was too fast! She thought she was going to have to go through a hard battle, but in the end, Lin Fei killed several snake-like beasts that were very dangerous to her in just a few seconds.
"This Boss Lin is really strong!" Hua Xiaolu was surprised and thought with some envy, "If only I were as strong as him, I could make a lot of money in minutes.
Also, he took out a flowerpot out of thin air, and he should have the space spiritual weapon that my father told me about. I heard that that thing is very expensive, and most people can't afford it."
"Otherwise, what do you think? Let's go! I'll take you back to the Forging City." Lin Fei smiled and prepared to fly back, but he suddenly stopped again.
"Boss Lin, what's wrong?" Hua Xiaolu asked in surprise.
"Someone is coming." Lin Fei said, looking at the grass beside him.
"Someone is here, could it be my father?" Hua Xiaolu's heart moved and she said in surprise.
Soon, several figures came from the other direction. One of them, a middle-aged man in hunter's clothing, was obviously stunned when he saw Hua Xiaolu and exclaimed, "Xiao Lu?"
"Dad, it's me. It's great that you're okay. You made me worry all night." Hua Xiaolu said happily.
"You kid, didn't I let you go into the mountain? Why did you run in?" the middle-aged man scolded.
"Haven't you always wanted to find a buyer? I found it for you." Hua Xiaolu laughed dryly, pointed at Lin Fei and said, "And don't worry, this buyer is very strong, don't you see?
Nothing happened at all?"
"Buyer?" When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression changed slightly.
"That's right! Didn't you say you wanted to find a buyer of spiritual plants? I found it for you. We just finished picking it and you guys are late." Hua Xiaolu said with some pride.
After all, she was ahead of her father this time, even though it was all Lin Fei's fault.
However, when the middle-aged man heard this, his expression became a little ugly. He turned carefully to look at the three people who came with him, and apologized quickly, "Everyone, I'm really sorry, my daughter is not sensible..."
"Huh!" The three people snorted coldly. They didn't even hear what he said. They frowned and looked at the flowerpot in Lin Fei's hand and said, "Is this the spiritual plant you picked just now?"
When Lin Fei heard this, he looked at the three men opposite. These three men were around thirty-six or seventeen years old. They were dressed in fancy clothes and each held weapons in their hands. They looked at Lin Fei eagerly.
Judging from their tired appearance, they must have encountered attacks from strange beasts along the way.
"Well, you're late." Lin Fei responded calmly.
Hua Xiaolu and his daughter suddenly felt the tense atmosphere between the two parties, and felt a little uneasy. They were just making some money, who knew it would lead to such a trouble?
"Dad, am I in trouble?" Hua Xiaolu asked anxiously, her face turned pale.
"Oh, it's my fault that I didn't warn you in advance. It's useless to say anything now. It seems that both sides are not easy to mess with. I wonder if they will anger us later?" Hua Xiaolu's father whispered worriedly.
"Friend, can you give us this spiritual plant in your hand?"
What were these people thinking? How could they give up what they got... Lin Fei rolled his eyes at the other party and didn't want to say anything more, "If there's nothing else, please give me a moment, I'm in a hurry."
Lin Fei was really in a hurry. The meal was almost here and he had to go home quickly to prepare lunch!
"Wait a minute, Your Excellency, our boss asked us to take this spiritual plant back. Now that you have picked it, we won't be able to explain it when we get back." The leader of the braided man said.
"It's none of my business that you have to complete the task assigned by the boss." Lin Fei looked at the three people standing in front of him, stopped and frowned, "And things like this without an owner, according to the rules, always come first
Come first served.”
Indeed, unowned things in the wild are always first come, first served. This is an unwritten rule. Lin Fei said that the man with braids was speechless.
"Gee, there are three of us, and he is the only one. Are you afraid that we can't rob him? If you encounter this kind of thing, just be tough, there is no other way." Another man with a hot temper couldn't help it, and directly swore.
, the sword in his hand pointed at Lin Fei.
Seeing this, the man with the braid and the last man knew that things were getting worse, and they were ready to rob him.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and a battle between the two sides was about to break out. But the next moment, Lin Fei suddenly looked behind the three of them in surprise.
"Don't use such little tricks! We are not newcomers, and your expressions are not good enough." When the three men saw this, they said with great disdain.
Suddenly, a shadow was cast from above.
The three men slowly raised their heads and saw a python spiraling up from the cliff. Its body was as thick as a bucket, and its scarlet snake eyes looked down at everyone present coldly.
At this moment, the three of them were closest to the python and the beast, and they were the first to bear the brunt.
"Gee, there is actually a second-stage and early-stage alien beast here." The three men exclaimed, and then fled quickly.
It was the first time for Hua Xiaolu and her daughter, as ordinary people, to see such a huge python. They turned pale with fright and collapsed to the ground.
After the three men distanced themselves, they looked at the python with solemn expressions, thinking about what to do next.
Among the three of them, the strongest braided man is only at the beginning of the second stage. If they go together, even if they can kill this python beast, the three of them will still suffer some injuries. If it is serious, there may be casualties.
.
"Hiss!" The python beast looked up to the sky and hissed, swooping down. Its first target was Lin Fei, who was closest to him and stood motionless.
A vicious aura with a fishy stench hit him instantly. Not far away, Hua Xiaolu mustered up her courage, gritted her teeth and shouted to Lin Fei, "Boss Lin, run away!"
Lin Fei did not move, just stood there, looking at the python and beast swooping down, shaking his head and sighing.
It has to be said that this python is really not very lucky.
Among the people present, no one provoked by this python beast would be killed immediately, except Lin Fei... Wasn't it thinking that he would ascend to heaven immediately?
