After half an hour's rest, Liu Qi and Zhang Jie had replenished their physical strength and recharged their batteries.
Zhang Jie gently pushed Yang Fan and said, "Let's go."
Yang Fan opened his eyes, stood up with Liu Qi and Zhang Jie, and walked northwest.
At this time, Yang Fan no longer had the mentality that it had nothing to do with him. He had secretly opened his five senses to the extreme and observed secretly.
During the march, both Liu Qi and Zhang Jie appeared more cautious than before.
When the three of them walked a hundred or two hundred meters, Yang Fan was the first to smell a sweet fruity aroma.
Is it the Tianxiang fruit tree?!
What a pure taste!
After walking for tens of meters, Liu Qi and Zhang Jie stopped at the same time under a towering tree with an enchanting posture.
This tree is about 20 meters long. It is not the tallest among the surrounding trees. The trunk is quite thick, with mixed branches and luxuriant leaves. It is like a giant open umbrella. In terms of "body", it is actually larger than
The surrounding trees are even larger.
The tree is full of purple-red fruits, one after another, each one is as big as a fist.
Standing under the tree, you can smell the sweet and refreshing smell!
Zhang Jie looked at Liu Qi, and both of them looked a little surprised.
"Tianxiang Fruit Tree?!" Zhang Jie seemed a little worried, so he checked on his wrist screen and got a consistent answer.
In fact, although the Tianxiang fruit tree is rare, the three of them trekked in the mountains and seas for a day and a half, so this was by no means the first time they saw it.
But both Yang Fan and Liu Qi and Zhang Jie were surprised when they saw this leafy Tianxiang fruit tree.
Now is the season when the Tianxiang fruit trees are bearing fruit. The aroma of the Tianxiang fruit on the tree is overwhelming, and the clear fruits are purple with red, which is very attractive.
But the three of them knew very well that they would not be blessed to enjoy that kind of fruit.
Tianxiang fruit contains a variety of paralyzing toxins. Human consumption may cause muscle paralysis, difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, even cardiac arrest.
But this toxin is ineffective against exotic animals. Not only that, many exotic animals like to eat this fruit, and they have to look for it everywhere.
Under this situation, almost all the Tianxiang fruit trees they had seen were bald, not to mention the Tianxiang fruit, there were not even many leaves left.
And the Tianxiang fruit tree in front of them was so lush and full of fruits that it was really abnormal.
Looking up at the bunches of tempting fruits, Liu Qi nodded for a moment in confusion, with a solemn expression on his face, and whispered, "How come even the Tianxiang fruit tree is so well preserved?!"
As he spoke, Liu Qi stopped, raised his head and looked to the northwest with a thoughtful look, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a moment, Liu Qi came back to his senses and said to Zhang Jie, "Wait while I pick a few bunches of Tianxiang fruits."
Zhang Jie asked strangely, "Why did you pick that? We can't eat it, and it has no effect on strange animals. It's still so big."
Liu Qi smiled, "It's useless against strange beasts, but it's useful for him." As he said that, he looked at Yang Fan.
"Not only for him, but also for other people, this thing will work wonders."
Now that he and Liu Qi had advanced and retreated together, Zhang Jie said nothing more.
Yang Fan glared at Liu Qi, who was looking at him with a smile but not a smile, completely unafraid of Yang Fan's anger.
This Liu Qi is no ordinary despicable person!
Yang Fan suppressed the anger in his heart, after all, eyes can't kill.
What he needs is rational thinking.
Liu Qi was talking to himself under the tree just now. He thought no one heard him, but he heard it himself!
"Even the Tianxiang Fruit Tree is so completely preserved"... It seems that the Tianxiang Fruit Tree was not the first piece of information he got!
Zhang Jie's silly Baitian hadn't reacted yet, but Yang Fan had already gotten some other information through smell and vision.
The vegetation here is so complete that there is no trace of being trampled or trampled on!
Plus this Tianxiang fruit tree loaded with fruits...
It seems that this guy just came to the same conclusion as himself.
He could not rule out that all strange beasts were like this, but ordinary strange beasts might not even dare to approach the Qilin Cave!
The black energy should be emitted from the Qilin Cave. What on earth could make all the animals and plants here so fearful?!
What on earth is in Qilin Cave!
What is intriguing is that Liu Qi, who has always "respected" Zhang Jie, did not share this information with Zhang Jie this time...
"Finally showing his true colors? Liu Qi seems to be ready to use Zhang Jie as a stepping stone when necessary!" Yang Fan snorted coldly in his heart.
Liu Qi picked a large bunch of Tianxiang fruits and asked Zhang Jie to pierce the fruits with arrows and coat them all with Tianxiang juice.
After using more than 20 pills, there were still four or five pills left. Liu Qi put them into the Iron Spider Mansilk backpack he had compiled. He didn't forget to look back at Yang Fan and said, "It's so delicious. Maybe you have a chance to try this."
gourmet food."
After taking care of the Tianxiang Fruit, the three of them continued to move forward.
At this time, Liu Qi was obviously much faster than Zhang Jie. He moved forward without much inspection of the environment. Zhang Jie could only give up careful observation and follow Liu Qi closely.
"Sure enough, he also guessed that most strange beasts would not dare to approach this place!" Yang Fan was even more certain of his guess.
After walking another two to three hundred meters, Yang Fan looked through the gaps in the branches and grass and saw black mist shrouding the rocky mountain not far ahead.
At the edge of the black air, the trees seemed to have grown to an end. Wherever the mist reached, not a single blade of grass grew. You could clearly see the clear distinction between the exposed black soil in that area and the surrounding ground covered with fallen leaves and branches and covered with vegetation.
The hazy black air almost surrounded the lonely rocky mountain. Directly facing them, there was a huge black hole, seven or eight meters high and four or five meters wide!
"Kilin Cave!" Yang Fan took a deep breath.
Liu Qi and the others later discovered the black mist and the cave.
"Liu Qi, the Qilin Cave should be in front of us." Zhang Jie said in a deep voice, staring at the entrance of the cave.
The pitch-black hole appeared even darker in the thin black air, like a large open mouth.
The three of them came to the edge of the black energy. Liu Qi stopped, turned around and walked to Yang Fan. He looked at Yang Fan and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "It's quite fun to follow us. You don't have to do anything. You have lived for so long."
"Zhang Jie, untie him and take out the things in his mouth."
Zhang Jie did as he was told.
Just when he was helping Yang Fan untie the rope from his hand, Liu Qi suddenly came from behind Yang Fan, held a bow in both hands, and punched Yang Fan's calf!
This time Liu Qi was stronger, but Yang Fan didn't have any defense yet.
Severe pain occurred, and Yang Fan immediately fell to the ground.
Liu Qi didn't give Yang Fan a chance to breathe at all, and lifted him up with one hand, "Don't blame me for being cruel, everything is just to survive! I'm just worried that you are playing tricks. In this kind of life and death situation, you must be cautious enough."
"You have a lame leg, now you can't run away."
"It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it takes a while to use it. Now it's time for you to play your role."
Liu Qi's smile cooled down and he revealed a sinister expression, "You go to the front! You must act according to our instructions. If you dare to play tricks, I am sure you will never be able to outrun my arrows!"
This guy Liu Qi doesn't regard himself as a human being at all!
Yang Fan suppressed his anger and turned to look at Zhang Jie.
While Zhang Jie was hesitating, Yang Fan felt uneasy.
The current situation was worse than he had expected. His left leg was in excruciating pain, and he couldn't walk normally even if he endured it.
He needs that ash pine gun more than ever!
Zhang Jie has completely become Liu Qi's tool. Can he still keep his promise?
Looking at Yang Fan's eyes, Zhang Jie finally decided.
He took a step forward and quickly put the gray pine gun into Yang Fan's hand. Then, without waiting for Liu Qi to speak, he pushed Yang Fan hard and said, "Quickly go!"
Yang Fan looked back at Zhang Jie and nodded gently to him as a thank you.
Looking back, Yang Fan looked at the cave entrance ahead.
The abyss is ahead, the devil is behind!
Taking a deep breath, Yang Fan leaned on the ground with his gray pine gun and limped toward the entrance of Qilin Cave.
