In the valley, the mist is hazy, and dozens of kinds of herbs, large and small, are available. The rich vitality of heaven and earth gathers in the valley, making people feel refreshed and refreshed.
"So many herbs." Each member of the herb collection team's eyes shone and their breathing quickened, especially Yin Wuwei, whose expression was even more excited.
So many people had died in the mountains and forests before. If the harvest this time was not much and the income could not be made ends meet, although the patriarch of the family would not blame it, Yin Wuwei could not give himself an explanation in his heart. But after seeing these herbs, his
My heart was immediately relieved.
There are a lot of herbs here. Although most of them are not of high value, once the alchemist in the family prepares the elixir and sells it to the family, the profit can be considerable.
"Everyone takes action and picks all the ripe herbs before evening."
Yin Wuwei spoke to the fifteen members of the herb collection team. At the same time, he was not dazzled by the joy of the herb. He ordered the remaining twelve family guards: "You guys spread out and protect this place."
Members of the herb collection team, if anything happens, don’t panic and report it to me immediately.”
"yes!"
The members of the escort team responded and spread out in the valley to protect the members of the herb collection team.
Yin Wuwei smiled and said to Lin Xiao and others: "Guys, you can take a rest when you get to the valley, but if there are any special circumstances, I hope you can help me."
"That's natural." Lin Xiao and others nodded.
After giving the instructions, Yin Wuwei himself joined in the process of collecting herbs.
"The four of you are each responsible for patrolling in one direction." Chen Fei ordered the four disciples of Marulong Castle.
The disciples nodded, and without any further ado, they immediately took up their own direction and started patrolling.
Lin Xiao and Chen Fei felt at ease. This was a good training ground, but it could only be regarded as good. Lin Xiao rarely practiced and was patrolling back and forth in the valley.
Although the valley seems quite quiet and there is no danger, no one dares to take it lightly in the Lianyun Mountains.
"Wow!"
From time to time, the crowd collecting herbs would let out one or two exclamations of exclamation, apparently because they had discovered some rare herb with relatively high value.
At the same time, some monsters would appear from time to time in the valley, but these monsters were all low-level monsters. Without Lin Xiao and the others, several members of the escort team would have rushed up immediately.
After getting rid of these monsters in a few attempts, it was considered a near miss.
"Director Yin, come here quickly." Suddenly, someone in the herb collection team exclaimed, his voice full of surprise.
The crowd was immediately attracted.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but be surprised when he walked over and saw that there were actually many first-level elixirs growing in the valley, with hundreds of them in total.
"So many first-level elixirs? Hurry and collect them." Yin Wuwei said excitedly.
The value of nearly a hundred first-grade elixirs in the market may not be high, but once they are harvested and refined into a large number of first-grade elixirs by the family, the value will immediately increase ten or dozens of times.
"Why are there so many first-order elixirs here?" Looking at the first-order elixirs everywhere, Lin Xiao couldn't help but frown slightly, feeling something was wrong in his heart.
He is not jealous. No matter how valuable these first-level elixirs are, one plant is worth dozens of taels at most, and hundreds of plants are worth thousands of taels. It is nothing at all. Only after they are formulated into elixirs can these elixirs reflect their power.
Value. Although the price of those ordinary herbs is low, they cannot support the large quantity. The value is actually higher than these first-order elixirs. However, for a family like the Yin family, first-order elixirs are still needed.
After all, high-grade elixirs are not only expensive, but also allow the Yin family to make friends with many forces in New Acropolis, while ordinary elixirs can only be sold to some ordinary warriors and quasi-martialists.
"Generally, wherever there are elixirs, there will be monsters. Although some elixirs cannot be swallowed directly by monsters, the vitality will be relatively strong in places where there are elixirs. Monsters are very sensitive to vitality, but there is nothing particularly powerful here.
There are only some one-star and two-star monster beasts out there, so something is obviously wrong." Lin Xiao pondered and looked around carefully.
In fact, the team has encountered some low-level monsters in this valley before. Generally, it is normal for first-level elixirs to be guarded by one-star and two-star monsters. But with so many first-level elixirs, if there are only a few
With a little monster guarding you, something is inevitably wrong.
Moreover, they have only reached half of the valley at this moment, and there are still many places deep in the valley that they have not yet explored. Depending on the situation, there may be even higher-quality elixirs inside.
"Everyone, please be careful. If you find anything wrong, don't take any action without authorization." Yin Wuwei seemed to feel something was wrong and reminded him again.
This valley was discovered by the Yin family's alchemist more than ten years ago. Although there were some medicinal herbs here, the number of elixirs was not large. The family's alchemist felt that this valley was very suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs, so he wrote down the location.
They come here to collect every one or two years. The last time their team, the Yin family's team, came to collect was two years ago. They collected thousands of common herbs and dozens of first-level elixirs here.
But this time, the herb collection team only reached half of the valley, and actually collected thousands of common herbs and nearly a hundred first-level elixirs. This data made Yin Wuwei excited, but also felt a little confused.
While Yin Wuwei and others were collecting elixirs...
Outside the valley, a group of three warriors wearing bloody warrior robes suddenly appeared.
"Huh? How come someone enters our valley?"
"Why are all the herbs on the outside of the valley gone? Who picked them?"
"Who, who dares to come to the medicine valley of our Blood Demon Horse Thieves Group to collect herbs!"
"Looking at the footprints are still fresh, and there are only those entering and not exiting, it seems that this team has not left yet."
"We just walked away for a while, and someone unexpectedly entered the medicine valley of our Blood Demon Horse Thieves Group. It is really a crime worthy of death. If the boss finds out, we will all be punished."
"Oops, there is also the elixir inside. If it is taken away, we will all be killed by the boss."
"Come on, let's get there quickly."
Seeing a large number of messy footprints and collected herbs outside the valley, the expressions of the three warriors instantly became extremely ferocious and terrifying.
Whoosh whoosh!
Without hesitation, the three of them transformed into three red figures and rushed into the valley like lightning. The speed was incredibly fast and they disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Right ahead."
Not long after advancing, the three of them saw the Yin family's herb collection team and others who were collecting elixirs in the valley.
"It's a herb collection team. Judging from their clothes, they don't seem to be from the major forces in the New Acropolis, so they must be a team from a certain family."
"Fortunately, they have only collected in the middle of the valley and have not yet entered the deepest part of the valley."
"If you dare to steal the medicinal grains of our Blood Demon Horse Thieves, they will all die, no one will be spared."
The three warriors were extremely ferocious.
One of the four disciples of Jiulong Fort was patrolling outside the valley. Suddenly, the fog outside the valley seemed to shake slightly. The disciple looked at it intently and was about to speak.
"call out!"
A sharp blade suddenly broke through the light fog and came to the disciple like lightning, and struck him directly before the disciple had time to react.
"Ah!" A shrill scream suddenly echoed in the valley. The disciple was cut in half by the huge sword light. Blood and flesh flew everywhere. The huge sound suddenly shocked everyone present.
Everyone.
"Junior brother Ning."
Chen Fei, who was paying close attention inside the valley, saw this scene, and his eyes immediately turned red.
The five of them often completed missions together and were very familiar with each other. None of their companions had been killed by such a crazy attack by the Scorpion-tailed Wasp before. He did not expect that such an accident would happen in this valley, which made him extremely angry.
Whoosh whoosh!
Chen Fei and the other four remaining Nine Dragons Fort disciples gathered together. Looking at Junior Brother Ning who was divided into two parts, his eyes were red, while Lin Xiao and many guards from the herb collection team also quickly caught up.
Although Lin Xiao always dispersed his mental power to pay attention to his surroundings, the three blood-robed warriors were too far away and could not be noticed for a moment. By the time they attacked, it was already too late.
"Who are you and why do you want to kill our people?"
"No matter who you are, if you dare to attack our Jiulongbao disciples, you three will die today."
"Blood debt must be paid with blood. We want the three of you to go down and bury our Junior Brother Ning with him.
Several disciples from Jiulong Fort yelled crazily.
The man in the blood robe at the head had brown hair that stuck tightly to his forehead. His withered face smiled coldly, revealing his black teeth: "It turns out that he is a disciple of Jiulong Fort. With this strength, he can also learn from others to do tasks.
It is a waste to die, not only him, but none of you can leave today, you are all dying here."
"hey-hey!"
"Hahaha!"
The other two men in blood robes also laughed ferociously.
"Are you... from the Blood Demon Horse Thieves?" Lin Xiao's eyes fell on the bloody robes of the three of them. This bloody warrior robe was very similar to the standard attire of the Blood Demon Horse Thieves on the mission.
"Hey, kid, you have some insight. Now that you know our identities, why not put down your weapons and cut off an arm? Maybe I can give you a way to live." The leading brown-haired man smiled sinisterly, with a look in his eyes.
Full of banter.
"It turns out to be the Blood Demon Horse Thieves."
"Not good."
"How did we meet them here?"
The faces of all the guards present became very ugly. The Blood Demon Horse Thieves were lawless and extremely vicious. They intercepted and killed many caravans and killed many disciples of powerful forces. They were extremely cruel.
Even Lin Xiao and Chen Fei's expressions changed. The Blood Demon Horse Thieves Group is famous for its ferocious reputation. There are many third-level masters in the group. What they are worried about is whether there are other Blood Demon Horse Thieves around besides these three people.
