Gu Zheng started to eat. He used a stone knife to pick up a piece of softened fruit pulp that looked like cotton wool and put it into his mouth. Brother Hantan and his son stared at him with wide eyes, imagining what it would be like.
tasty.
It looks like cotton wool, and it seems to have a bad taste, but when it is actually eaten in the mouth, the first thing Gu Zheng feels is a fragrant and sweet juice, and then he sucks it hard, and the cotton-like pulp is immediately in his mouth.
It melted in his mouth and became completely free of residue, which also made the original fragrance in his mouth upgrade again.
"Well, that's really good!"
The deliciousness of the food finally made Gu Zheng feel better. It can be said that after entering this space world, apart from the natural treasures he ate at the beginning, the fragrance of this mouthful of fruit pulp was the best fruity experience.
"Gudong!"
Following Gu Zheng's comments, Brother Hantan and his son swallowed their saliva together. When Gu Zheng used a stone knife to pick up a piece of fried and slightly curly meat and put it into his mouth, Brother Hantan and his son couldn't help but open their mouths.
, stretched their necks, as if they could taste the meat when it was delivered to Gu Zheng's mouth.
The unique aroma of meat food blooms in the mouth as Gu Zheng chews it. Moreover, because the ingredients are of high quality and have been cooked by Gu Zheng, the umami flavor is really unparalleled, even without salt for seasoning.
, it is still a wonderful taste experience.
After eating a piece of firm and tender scorpion tail meat, Gu Zheng used a stone knife to pick up a piece of the flower petal, put it in his mouth and started chewing it.
The quality of the petals' ingredients is only medium, and the taste is naturally not as good as the other two ingredients. However, after all, it is cooked together with the other two ingredients, so the taste is not much different.
After carefully tasting the same ingredients, Gu Zheng began to devour the food in the stone pot. Although he enjoyed tasting the food, in fact, the pain in his body was always present.
The food in the stone pot was quickly eaten by Gu Zheng, who immediately entered the phantom crystal and sat up cross-legged.
Gu Zheng's current body is only a mortal body. If he wants to adapt to the natal true fire spirit in his body, he must upgrade his strength to the late stage of Qi Transformation within three days.
Although when looking for ingredients on the road, Gu Zheng was very irritable because he couldn't find them. But once he found the ingredients and could cook and eat them, his urgency would immediately be reduced a lot.
For example, now, according to Gu Zheng's speculation, the immortal energy that the food can convert this time will definitely allow him to enter the early stage of Qi transformation. Once he enters the early stage of Qi transformation, then his ability to withstand the spirit of true fire will be
In other words, it will be stronger, and the three days will be extended by then, and the pain he usually has to endure will be weakened due to the improvement of his own strength.
Although Gu Zheng's current body is a mortal body, its internal structure is not the same as that of mortals in the prehistoric times. The cultivation techniques he used before are of no use to this body. The only thing that makes him feel
A useful basic skill cannot be used until he has reached the early stage of Qi transformation.
Then the situation before Gu Zheng became that Gu Zheng did not need to do too many things. He only needed to guide the effect of the medicine and impact and strengthen the meridians of his body. This was not a difficult task.
The feeling of pain became more and more intense, and the effect of the medicine appeared in Gu Zheng's body in the form of another kind of warm current that made Gu Zheng painful. This warm current was changing Gu Zheng's meridians and body, and the meridians and body changed, causing pain.
Naturally, it is inevitable.
Gu Zheng in the Phantom Crystal was sweating profusely, and this situation lasted for a full stick of incense. When he finally finished, Gu Zheng breathed out a breath of unrecognizable relief, and a look of relief appeared on his face.
Gu Zheng entered the early stage of Qi transformation. One moment, his body was tortured by double pain. The next moment, the pain of body changes was eliminated, and the original pain caused by the true fire spirit of his life was also alleviated. The feeling after this comparison could not be better.
"Let's go to the next fruit tree!"
Hearing Gu Zheng's voice coming from the phantom crystal, Brother Hantan and his son immediately let out a cheer. For them, it was great that Gu Zheng was safe and sound.
There was also a monster on the third fruit tree. The monster looked like a big lizard, but it had six legs and barbs on its back.
Although it looked very fierce, the lizard monster was no match for Brother Hantan, and it was quickly beaten to death by Brother Hantan with a soul-power stick.
After the Hantan monk killed the lizard monster, Gu Zheng also got the fruit from the tree. However, the only drawback was that the lizard monster's ingredients were too low-grade, which did not allow Gu Zheng to reap the double benefits like the scorpion monster.
Without wasting any time, Brother Hantan and his son followed Gu Zheng's guidance and immediately ran towards the fourth fruit tree. Through Gu Zheng's previous information, Brother Hantan already knew that the monster living on the fourth fruit tree was a monster.
A big bird.
However, the situation changed. When Brother Hantan and his son arrived near the fruit tree, they found that the person guarding the fruit was no longer a big bird, but a tree man who was ten meters tall!
Gu Zheng saw a tree man in the forest. That was when he first entered the forest. He also made a deal with the tree man and got information about chipmunks from the tree man. This is what happened next.
.
However, the tree man this time was not the one Gu Zheng had seen before. Its appearance looked more fierce than the tree man Gu Zheng had seen before. Standing next to the fruit tree, its mouth was not idle at all.
, and unlike the tree man before, it ate meat. It actually ate the trees next to it. It grabbed a lot of leaves and stuffed them into its mouth for chewing. It uprooted smaller trees, like
It tastes like eating sugar cane.
"Hey, can you talk?"
Gu Zheng's voice came from the phantom crystal. Due to the relationship with the previous tree man, Gu Zheng wanted to see if he could get any useful information from the current tree man.
"Ouch!"
Gu Zheng responded with a roar. The tree man who had not noticed the Hantan monk and his son originally discovered them because of Gu Zheng's voice. It smashed the unfinished small tree in its hand at the Hantan monk and his son from a distance.
go.
It is said to be a small tree, but that is only compared to the tree man's huge body. The tree that was hit by the tree man is actually a big tree in the eyes of Hantan monks and his son!
"Master, what should I do?"
Dodging the flying tree, Brother Hantan asked about Guzheng.
"Lead it to a place where it won't harm the fruit and kill it. It has no intelligence and cannot communicate."
With Gu Zheng's words, Brother Hantan and his son immediately became excited. In their opinion, this huge tree man should be a very challenging opponent.
Brother Hantan and his son first led the tree man away from a certain area of the fruit tree, then turned around and rushed towards the tall tree man. They all held sticks transformed by soul power in their hands.
When the tree man saw Brother Hantan and his son rushing towards them, it stopped pursuing and shook its arms. Countless vines shot out from its arms and rolled towards Brother Hantan and his son like spiritual snakes.
The bodies of Brother Hantan and his son are very flexible, but the vines are also very flexible. Even if Brother Hantan and his son try to avoid them, they still cannot escape their entanglement. What makes Brother Hantan and his son even more helpless is that their soul power
The attack has no effect on this tree man!
Soul attack is currently the strongest attack method used by Hantan monks and his son. If this attack method does not work, then they will not be able to harm the tree people at all.
"Go ahead, as long as you get within a certain range of it, I will deal with this tree man!"
Gu Zheng had already seen the situation of Brother Hantan and his son. He did not ask Brother Hantan and his son to take down the tree man, so he was ready to do it himself.
After receiving Gu Zheng's order, Brother Hantan immediately ran to the other side. In this situation, the only way to break through the blockade of the treant vines and run to it was to take a roundabout way.
means.
Brother Hantan's tactics were effective. When he ran to the side, the vines that were still attacking him all swept towards his son because he was out of attack range.
Originally, he only had to deal with half of the vines, but now the number of vines has doubled. The pressure on Brother Hantan's son suddenly doubled, and he was in danger of being restrained by the vines at any time. However, Brother Hantan's son was not stupid and knew the current situation.
It was not suitable for him to get entangled with vines anymore, so he simply stopped trying to get closer to the tree people while entangled with the vines like before. This time he simply ran around the trees in the forest. Anyway, the trees in the forest
There were more vines, and the vines were connected to the tree man's body. As long as he could hide safely for a while, his father could get close to the tree man within a certain range.
Brother Hantan's son was right. His peek-a-boo was a provocation to the tree people. The angry tree people only focused on dealing with him, not caring about Brother Hantan who was already approaching him from behind.
After the monk Hantan got close to a certain range of the tree people, Gu Zheng decisively used the magic crystal. The huge tree people were no exception, and he was directly absorbed into the magic crystal.
After putting the tree man into the phantom crystal, Gu Zheng ordered the Hantan monks and his son to continue picking fruits. After picking the fruits, they marched towards the barrier that would only appear at night. As for the tree man who was said to be contained in the phantom crystal, Gu Zheng
Try to torture it through illusions.
The thing that the tree man fears most is fire. When the overwhelming flames appeared in the phantom crystal, the tree man struggled in it, and its will gradually disappeared in the burning flames.
Tortured to destroy the tree man's will, Gu Zheng used the magic crystal to check its memory. However, the tree man only woke up after Gu Zheng entered this space world. Its memory only lasted a few days, and it was basically useless.
Of little use.
Although the tree man's memory is useless, the tree man itself is extremely useful to Gu Zheng! This does not mean that the tree man itself is a food, but its body.
The tree man's body is very tall, but this body can stretch and contract freely. When it is the highest, it can reach a height of ten meters, but when it is the shortest, it can become more than one meter. Although it is a wood-type creature, it is naturally afraid.
Fire, however, is more resistant to flames than ordinary plants. More importantly, invisible attacks like soul power are of no use to tree people. Although they cannot fly, they can
After it grows in size, the power of its vines has already been seen by Brother Hantan and his son.
Precisely because of the extraordinary nature of the tree man, Gu Zheng decided to let the son of the monk Hantan take possession of the body of the tree man, thus strengthening the strength of the entire team.
Brother Hantan and his son are still in the bodies of monkey monsters. They have encountered other monsters before, but those monsters are not as strong as Brother Hantan and his son. Gu Zheng did not bother to give them a new body.
, now it is worth his trouble.
After torturing the tree man into a suitable state, Gu Zheng took the son of the monk Hantan into the phantom crystal.
The son of monk Hantan was very excited. He thanked Gu Zheng repeatedly. He was naturally very happy to have a more powerful tree body.
Abandoning his original monkey monster body, Brother Hantan's son used his soul to seize the tree man's body. After being released by Gu Zheng, he immediately started to destroy the forest in excitement, which shocked his father, Brother Hantan.
That's so enviable.
Knowing that Brother Hantan was envious, Gu Zheng promised that if he encountered a suitable monster again, he would help Brother Hantan find a more powerful body.
At this time, there was still some time before night. Although he had not harvested any useful ingredients, Gu Zheng was in a good mood. After eating a meal, he was now in the early stage of Qi transformation. He was tortured all the time.
It has been controlled within the range he can bear.
"Come on! Give you a treat."
Seeing Gu Zheng walk out of the phantom crystal and take out the corpse of a rhinoceros-like monster, Brother Hantan and his son burst into cheers.
A monster like a rhinoceros, it was something that Brother Hantan and his son hunted on their way from the wasteland into the forest. Although this guy was huge, the quality of its ingredients was mid-level, and it also exuded a strange fragrance. Although this guy was
The scent smelled like musk. Gu Zheng was not interested in this scent, but this did not affect the Hantan monks and his son who found the scent to be very overpowering. This also made them obsessed with the meat of the rhinoceros monster.
Now that Guzheng wanted to reward Brother Hantan and his son, he naturally wanted to make barbecue with this rhinoceros monster and give it to Brother Hantan and his son to feast on.
However, the size of the rhinoceros monster is too large. With the current strength of Gu Zheng, it is not enough to completely use the true fire to barbecue. They can only let the Hantan monks and his son gather firewood and process the ingredients.
Just take care of the waiting barbecue.
The huge rhinoceros monster was processed by Brother Hantan. According to the requirements of Gu Zheng, only two huge steaks were left in the end. And these cool steaks were cut into pieces by Brother Hantan and skewered into meat skewers.
, has been placed on the blazing grill at this moment. In fact, if it was just Brother Hantan, he wouldn't be able to eat so much barbecue, but the key point is that Brother Hantan's son is now the body of a tree man.
Okay, even though this body is more powerful, it still requires more food to be full than the body of the monkey monster.
As Gu Zheng barbecued, the aroma of barbecue mixed with a smell like musk became stronger and stronger in the air. This smell was not attractive to Gu Zheng, but it attracted the Hantan monks and his son to drool.
It seems that the Hantan monk is not the only one who feels the aroma of barbecue. Even some other monsters think so. This also makes the process of fighting for barbecue in ancient times not peaceful. A total of four groups of monsters were killed before and after.
Attracted by the smell of barbecue. However, these monsters were not strong enough. Before they could rush to the vicinity, they were killed by Hantan monks and his son.
The two big meat skewers were finally grilled, and Brother Hantan and his son ate them deliciously. After they were full, the sky gradually became dark.
The forest at night is a completely different world from the daytime. The sky has just turned dark, and the forest has become overflowing with light. Many trees and flowers that look ordinary during the day actually emit a faint glow at night.
Bright lights, and even monsters like chipmunks that would not appear during the day but would suddenly appear at night, appeared beside the Hantan monks and his son.
There were three monsters that appeared next to Hantan monk and his son. One looked like a wolf but had two heads, the other looked like a big centipede, and the third one was similar to the one from Gu Zheng before.
It looks like a chipmunk.
The three monsters that suddenly appeared immediately launched an attack on the Hantan monk. They rushed forward and sprayed poison. However, although the three monsters launched attacks on the Hantan monk, they did not deal with Hantan.
It's not that they don't want to deal with Brother Tan's son, but that as long as Brother Hantan's son stands there and stays still, he will look like a big tree, and they won't be idle with nothing to do.
Launch an attack on a large tree.
The three monsters did not attack Brother Hantan's son, but Brother Hantan's son would not let them go. Seeing that Brother Hantan's son was short, he immediately turned on the two-meter-long monster that was spraying poison.
The centipede monster was caught in his hands.
The contrast between the bodies made Brother Hantan's son look like a naughty boy grabbing a small centipede. With a slight push of his hands, the centipede monster's body was suddenly torn into two pieces by him.
Although the body of the centipede monster was torn into two parts, the part with the head not only did not die, but actually bit the hand of the Hantan monk's son.
However, the son of Brother Hantan is now in the body of a tree man. Tree men have good immunity to toxins. To him, this kind of damage is almost like being bitten by an ant. He directly kills the centipede monster.
His head was crushed.
Seeing that there was a tree man next to them, the other two monsters immediately wanted to escape, but because the two-headed wolf monster escaped relatively slowly, both of its heads were beaten by the soul power stick of the Hantan monk.
