The bamboo rat-like spiritual beast raised its short paws high and shook them continuously, as if to persuade him not to be sad.
Zhihe stared at it blankly for a moment, and a warm smile from the bottom of his heart suddenly appeared on his ugly face.
"Thank you eighteen, I'm not complaining. To be honest, Lingyunfeng Upper Court treated me well.
My companions are dragons and rats like you with extremely poor fighting ability. I am dragging my feet in assessment after assessment, but my training qualifications are not short of even the slightest every year.
Although my brothers and sisters often make fun of me, if I have any questions, they will always answer them, and I am satisfied!"
It could be seen that Zhihe really meant what he said at this time, and his eyes were slightly red.
"Okay, Shiba, you'd better go back first, otherwise the other brothers will be worried!"
Zhihe carefully placed the dragon rat on the ground and gave it a gentle push.
The dragon rat subconsciously rolled towards the bamboo forest, but after running a few steps, he looked back, as if he was still worried about him.
Zhihe burst into laughter and waved his hand.
"Go back quickly. Remember to be alert when sleeping. Don't let the brothers from other peaks in the Upper Academy sneak into our Lone Star Peak. That will make the leader of Jinghai furious!"
The dragon mouse climbed towards the bamboo forest very obediently, but it still turned around every step of the way, and Zhihe immediately became angry.
"Obey, I have taken over the night watch duty this month, so I don't have time to play with you!"
Hearing his stern tone, the dragon rat swooped and disappeared. Even Xu Luo, who was hiding in the dark, was startled by the speed.
But he immediately realized that the night patrol that Zhihe mentioned should mean patrolling the mountains. If this doesn't help him lead the way?
The best thing is that this supreme peace is nothing but the realm of Ningsha.
Even though everyone who came to Lingyun Peak was a proud man with talents and abilities, Xu Luo really didn't scare anyone at the same level!
Zhihe watched the bamboo rat disappear and return to the bamboo house. After a while, he carried a white lantern and walked out of the bamboo forest.
This lantern is obviously a special spiritual object. The flames it emits will automatically avoid obstacles as if it is spiritual.
A small lantern allowed Zhihe to have no blind spots for dozens of feet around him.
Xu Luo followed him quietly, walking in circles out of the bamboo forest.
To Xu Luo's expectation, this place was halfway up a tall mountain. He couldn't figure out how he could appear halfway up the mountain when he had obviously sneaked in from the foot of the mountain.
Emerging from the bamboo forest, Xu Luo's vision suddenly widened, and the rolling peaks came into view instantly.
The tallest one, which reaches straight into the sky, is the Lingyun Peak that everyone in Black Turtle City can see every day.
There are also a series of undulating peaks next to it, among which there are five steepest and most conspicuous ones. At first glance, they look like a giant palm of a god grasping the sky, which is extremely spectacular.
At this moment, Xu Luo and the two were standing on the peak at the little finger at the end of the giant palm, which should be the Lone Star Peak mentioned by Zhi He.
In the middle of the mountain peak is a huge valley, with large and small waterfalls roaring down like the Milky Way.
What shocked Xu Luo even more was that countless crystal-clear and transparent rainbow bridges were crossing over the valley. From a distance, they looked like spider webs connecting various mountain peaks.
Even though it was late at night, Hongqiao still glowed with a hazy white light, like countless white streamers circling and interweaving among the mountain peaks...
Well, white light, Xu Luo suddenly thought of something extremely incredible, raised his head and looked towards the sky.
What did he see?
A bright moon is hanging high in the sky, shining out the white moonlight. The bright moon here is not scarlet, and there is only one round!
But before Xu Luo could take a closer look, Zhihe had already stepped onto a rainbow bridge extending towards Lone Star Peak.
Xu Luo hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth for the last time, and suddenly disappeared like a ghost, hanging silently at the hem of Zhihe's clothes.
If he wants to follow Zhihe, this is the only way.
Because this Hongqiao is crystal clear and the light is looming, not to mention that he is still an inch long, even a hair falling from it is clearly visible.
Zhihe took a step forward, but his whole body instantly moved to a fork in the Hongqiao road.
He took a familiar step to the left, and with just one step, he had already appeared at the foot of the mountain along the Hongqiao Bridge.
Xu Luo was really dumbfounded when he saw this kind of coquettish operation. Wow, this is teleportation!
When they got here, Hongqiao disappeared, but Zhihe calmly whistled towards the dense forest ahead.
Just a moment later, a seven-colored stag appeared in front of him with a few leaps, extending its tongue and licking Zhihe's face in an affectionate manner.
Zhi He angrily slapped its head aside.
"I call you Qise, but I don't mean to call you a pervert. Where did you get into this bad habit of smearing your saliva on every meeting?"
The stag shook his head angrily and bounced on the spot a few times, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with him pushing away like this.
Zhihe smiled helplessly and hugged its neck, feeling very affectionate.
"Okay, okay, let's run around the mountains with me first..."
Before he finished speaking, the seven-colored stag had already bumped into him, almost knocking him to the ground. Zhihe didn't get angry and showed a resentful look.
"Don't worry, I won't call you in vain, three spirit-gathering grasses."
Seeing him bargaining with the Seven-Colored Stag, Xu Luo understood a little bit in his heart, why was this man admitted to the Upper Academy for cultivation?
Putting aside Zhihe's cultivation qualifications, his ability to communicate with various spiritual beasts and monsters is worthy of everyone's admiration.
I don’t know what exactly Zhihe deceived Qise. After a while, it was about to come and rush forward with it on its back.
While Xu Luo took the free ride, he carefully sensed the traces of the Qingniu cart and the slaves.
Unfortunately, time passed by and he still couldn't find anything.
Could it be that my guess was wrong, or that the slave slaves and the others didn't come to beg for a living alliance at all?
Thinking of the terrible consequences, Xu Luo's always proud character almost completely collapsed.
But even with Wu Shengzhu suppressing his mind, Xu Luo still felt as if his heart had sunk into an abyss, and the violent and anxious thoughts that surged wildly from his heart were almost destroying all his calmness.
Zhihe was still babbled on, but the seven-colored stag that was turning into a stream of light and running at full speed suddenly stopped and looked around suspiciously.
Spiritual beasts and monsters are naturally wary and vigilant, and are especially sensitive to things like murderous intent.
Xu Luo's mood fluctuated slightly, and he immediately realized something was wrong.
"Qise, stop what you are doing, speed up, and send me to Lingyun Peak later!"
Zhihe was stunned at first, but after his spiritual sense scanned the surroundings for a few times and found nothing unusual, he scolded him angrily.
Qise's smooth, satin-like fur trembled, almost throwing him off, and Zhihe hurriedly hugged its neck tightly.
"Okay, okay, you are the master, so Master Qi, can you leave now?"
Qise's nostrils twitched a few times, and finally she walked forward quickly again, but this time the direction was towards the longest middle finger, which was Lingyun Peak House.
Xu Luo didn't pay too much attention to all this. He just sensed it with his mind over and over again, and even almost alarmed the mountain guarding formation several times because of the unbridled extension of his spiritual consciousness.
Qise was extremely fast and reached the foot of Lingyun Peak in just one stick of incense.
Zhihe jumped off the deer's back and pretended to sway his waist and hips, and taught him an old-fashioned lesson.
"Qise, when you run, you can't just run fast, you have to pay more attention to whether you feel comfortable...ah..."
But before He finished pretending, Qise didn't show any intention of getting used to him, and just kicked him to the ground, and then disappeared into the dense forest with a few triumphant neighs.
Zhihe got up from the ground in embarrassment, still cursing.
But he didn't notice that behind him under the white moonlight, there was a huge figure twisting like a ghost.
Xu Luo was already in a daze at this moment, using his spiritual sense to frantically explore all the places he could reach.
Unknowingly, countless murderous and vicious auras mixed with Qi and blood gradually flowed out from various acupoints. Fortunately, there was a fushengzhu to cover his aura, otherwise he would have been exposed long ago.
But even so, Qi and blood still subconsciously condensed around Xu Luo to form the true form of the vicious ape.
After all, Wu Sheng Bamboo cannot reveal its true form now, and all kinds of magical powers are suddenly greatly reduced.
Zhihe, who was feeling an inexplicable chill all over his body, looked around a few times suspiciously, and then sneaked towards the front.
Soon a valley shrouded in miasma appeared in front, and the light of the forbidden rune was clearly shining at the mouth of the valley.
Zhihe looked around guiltily like a thief, and finally quickly took out a jade plate in the shape of a palm print and pressed it on the rune.
The rune's light dimmed and disappeared directly. Zhihe's chubby body seemed particularly agile at this time, and he rushed into the valley almost instantly, and the rune appeared again behind him.
The moment Zhihe rushed through the runes, Xu Luo felt a strange, yet familiar consciousness suddenly appear in his perception.
Send a slave!
Xu Luo's mind, which was almost going crazy, suddenly cleared up, and the rich redness in his pupils quickly dissipated.
But before he could react, the familiar feeling disappeared immediately. Xu Luo subconsciously looked at the runes that glowed again behind him. In addition to endless ecstasy, his eyes also regained some calmness.
It seems that I was wrong. Jinu and the others were probably isolated in Lingyun Peak by some kind of talisman formation, so they were not sensed by me in time.
Xu Luo almost collapsed to the ground when he thought of this. Fortunately, he was still hanging on Zhihe's clothes, so he didn't make much noise.
Now that it was confirmed that Ji Nu and the others were at Lingyun Peak, Xu Luo suddenly lost the anxiety he had in the past. Only then did he have the intention to look at Zhi He, curious about what he wanted to do.
This valley was shrouded in mist, and all the surrounding scenery looked hazy, but it was obviously not the first time for Zhihe. He walked around the familiar road for a few times before he appeared in front of a small tree about three feet high.
This tree looks very strange, with a fan-shaped crown but no leaves. There are two or three red fruits on each branch, as crystal clear as fine agate and jade, and fragrant.
Zhihe stood in front of the tree, the look of envy and longing in his eyes flashed away, but he immediately reacted and lay down in front of the small tree to search.
Not a moment later, he let out a faint cheer and pounced on a grass stem that was an inch long. The grass stems were scattered on the ground like cut transparent fishing lines, and you couldn't find them unless you looked carefully.
A bamboo shovel suddenly appeared in Zhihe's hand, and he carefully collected all the grass stems.
His purpose in coming to the valley was obviously these grass stems, and as soon as he finished picking them, he immediately ran towards the valley entrance.
But Xu Luo, who was still watching the show just now, suddenly changed his expression. With the blessing of the Netherworld Technique, a tall figure suddenly appeared in the fog in front of him, but Zhihe still rushed toward him with excitement on his face without noticing it.
Taniguchi.
"Hmph! Why do the fragrant green fruits mature so slowly these days? It turns out that you are the one who is doing this."
The cold voice was clearly filled with anger, and it suddenly sounded in Zhihe's ears.
His rushing figure suddenly stopped as if pressing a brake button. His ugly face was full of disbelief as he looked towards the place where the sound came from. As soon as he saw the tall figure appearing, he immediately blurted out and shouted.
"Senior Sister Zhiyu, aren't you going to listen to Uncle Jingfeng's comments at this time..."
Before he finished speaking, his face was already as pale as a sheet of paper. This time, Zhiyu, who has always been the most disciplined person, caught him in the act. He was afraid that his skin would peel off even if he didn't die!
Zhihe was originally a bit inferior and timid, but now that he was at fault first, he felt even more ashamed.
Zhiyu didn't even say a harsh word, he had already lowered his head deeply, and kept rubbing his hands without knowing where to put them.
At this time, Zhiyu had slowly walked up to her. She was already taller than a man, and her brows were as sharp as a knife.
At this moment, her eyebrows were furrowed, and she looked even more imposing. Seeing Zhihe's timid appearance, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and she scolded him mercilessly.
"Among our senior disciples, you are considered to be one who understands pharmacology. Don't you know the importance of Yuxincao to Xiangqingguo?"
Zhihe secretly raised his head to glance at her, and quickly lowered his head before she could look over.
"Senior sister is right, junior brother is wrong this time!"
Hearing that he admitted his mistake without any explanation, Zhiyu's expression softened slightly, but she still stretched out her hand.
"This is the critical moment for the fragrant green fruit to mature. If there is no jade heart grass, its maturity date will be at least one month later. By then, Master Jingxiang of Lingyun Peak will not be able to start the alchemy furnace. Who should be responsible for this?"
Zhihe honestly handed over the Yuxincao that had not yet awakened the heat from his arms. When only the last two were left, he finally couldn't hold back his begging.
"Senior sister, can you leave these two to your junior brother, even if I buy them with spiritual dew from Shangyuan?"
Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, but his eyebrows stood up straight, and his palms were like eagle claws, grabbing him straight.
"You bastard, if you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink as a fine! Hand it all over to me, and then go to the Discipline Peak to take the blame yourself!"
Zhihe subconsciously moved his palms, but in the end he still did not dare to resist Ren. Zhiyu grabbed the remaining two jade heart grasses with a bitter look on his face.
"Senior sister, please show your respect. Junior brother can go to Discipline Peak to accept the punishment by himself, but my companion dragon rat is about to be promoted. As long as I have two jade heart grasses, I can save it at least two years. Junior brother, I don't want to be at the bottom every time.
