Chen Ronghuo rubbed the fat cat who was sleeping comfortably on the stool.
"Meow~"
Sha Mao glanced at him, wondering what he was going to do.
Chen Ronghuo picked up the fat cat, touched it twice, and said with a flash of eyes: "I have something to go out for, and I should be back tomorrow. You will be at home by yourself tonight, you know?"
Meow!
Fat Mao suddenly jumped out of Chen Ronghuo's arms, jumped onto a stool nearby, and looked at him seriously with his eyes.
It seemed like he wanted to see if he was joking with him.
"Yeah?" Seeing the fat cat's appearance, Chen Ronghuo smiled, rubbed its head and said, "You guys, you can't understand human speech, right?"
Meow!
Sha Mao turned his head to avoid Chen Ronghuo's hand.
Meow meow!
Then it looked at Chen Ronghuo twice, turned its head and barked twice, as if to tell him that he must come back.
"Don't worry, I should be back in one night."
Chen Ronghuo said with a smile.
He panicked.
The blood tea tree will not bloom until four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. After he gets the blood tea tree, he will probably have to come out of the mountains. It is impossible to return to Xiahe Village on the same day.
And even if he could return, he would not return.
Because his purpose is to make the fat cat feel his long absence.
Although this may be a bit painful for the fat cat, in order to subdue it as soon as possible, Chen Ronghuo could only use some small tricks.
Fat Cat finally agreed.
In other words, it has no reason or right to disagree.
It just lay back on the stool, but couldn't fall asleep again.
It remembered clearly that the last time its owner abandoned it, the child said that he would come looking for him in the future. However, after such a long time, it has not seen its former little master once.
After thinking about it, it raised a cat's paw and looked at it a few times.
It's just one night, it should be easy to get over, right?
But, be sure to come back!
Never abandon me!
I could actually eat less...
After lunch, Huang Tiesheng took Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin to Chen Ronghuo's yard.
Both Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin each brought a black baggage and handy weapons.
Zhu Dapeng's weapon is a thick-backed sword, while Huang Lin's weapon is a short sword.
"Are you all ready?"
Chen Ronghuo asked.
"Don't worry, sir, we are ready!"
Zhu Dapeng looked a little excited.
Chen Ronghuo didn't mention the guards.
But he is not really stupid. He knows that Chen Ronghuo has something to ask him this time. If he does a good job, the guarding matter will definitely be much easier.
Chen Ronghuo rubbed the fat cat in his arms, put it on the stool, stood up and said to the two of them: "Since everything is ready, let's set off now."
As he spoke, he took the first step and walked out of the small courtyard.
The fat cat lay on the stool and glanced at him, then curled his head into his soft and fat belly.
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin quickly followed.
"You two remember this." Huang Tiesheng also followed the three of them, and after sending them to the entrance of the village, he told Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin, "When you leave the village, no matter what happens, you must listen to the young master.
!”
"Uncle Huang (Dad), don't worry."
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin said almost in unison.
They are not children anymore, so they naturally know what to do.
After Chen Ronghuo also reassured Huang Tiesheng, he took Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin all the way to the northwest.
On the house in Chen Ronghuo's courtyard, the fat cat climbed up at some point.
It stood on the highest point of the roof, looking at Chen Ronghuo from a distance, watching his back go away little by little and disappear. After a while, it suddenly lay down in despair, its eyes dull.
And its orange fur, under the sunlight, seemed to blend with the earthy color of the roof, and it seemed that it was no longer as shiny as before.
After leaving the village, Chen Ronghuo suddenly said: "I am practicing a special secret technique now, and it is not suitable to start it before I complete it.
So if you encounter any danger when you go out this time, you can do your best to block it, you know?"
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin were both startled when they heard Chen Ronghuo's words.
However, the two of them reacted quickly. Huang Lin solemnly said: "Don't worry, young master. I will be with you this time when we go out. I will never let you take action."
"And me too!"
Zhu Dapeng also patted his chest and followed up: "If you want to do anything, Master, just ask me.
My strength is not comparable to that of Young Master, but I am still somewhat useful in this area."
Chen Ronghuo smiled when he heard this.
He said: "Don't be so nervous. I went out this time just to find some materials. Although I will need your help, the danger is not great."
The mountain where the Blood Camellia is located is dozens of miles away from Xiahe Village.
That big mountain is actually the big mountain where the hunting team often hunts.
Huang Lin was attacked by the Shadow Leopard there last time.
Because he had enough time, and because Chen Ronghuo was afraid that he would go too fast and his body would not be able to bear it, he deliberately slowed down along the way.
The group of three people walked slowly, even if the speed was not fast, and at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, they arrived at the dividing line between Hongyu Village and Qingyan Village.
When crossing the border of Hongyu Village, Chen Ronghuo glanced in the direction of Hongyu Village from a distance. At this time, there was not a single idle person in Hongyu Village.
However, he could see soldiers wearing helmets and armors in Red Fish Village.
Further west from Hongyu Village is the territory of Hongsha Town.
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin looked slightly solemn when they saw the scene in Red Fish Village.
"Let's go."
Chen Ronghuo glanced at the two of them and spoke calmly.
This place is very close to Red Fish Village, and he doesn't want to cause trouble here.
As for detouring through Qingyan Village, it is unreasonable.
Qingyan Village is not big, but there are many hills in it. If you take a detour, you don’t know how far it will take.
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin nodded and quickly followed Chen Ronghuo's footsteps.
The three of them walked like this for another hour or so, and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The mountain in front of us is not actually very high, it just looks high because of the high terrain.
At the same time, mountains here are connected with mountains, stretching for hundreds of miles.
In the deep mountains and ancient forests, there is a lot of poisonous miasma and haze. Unless they are very powerful people, few people will go too deep into this mountain.
"Sir, is this our goal?"
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Zhu Dapeng asked curiously.
He has been to this mountain many times and is quite familiar with it. He wonders what Chen Ronghuo is doing here.
"Yes, it's right here." Chen Ronghuo nodded, "Our target is a blood-threaded snake that became a second-level demon not long ago. Follow me."
As he spoke, Chen Ronghuo led the way around the foot of the mountain and followed the guidance of the ancient book.
What the hell?
Second level demon?
But after hearing Chen Ronghuo's words, Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin's expressions suddenly froze.
The level of second-level demons is equivalent to that of earth warriors. If Chen Ronghui doesn't take action, given their strength, they may only die.
Of course Chen Ronghuo knew what the two were thinking. He shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the demon shed its skin once when it broke through, and its strength was seriously damaged.
Although it is at the second level, its strength is currently only at the mid-level of the first level.
Taking it down with your strength is not a problem."
Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin were relieved.
Zhu Dapeng himself can handle the mid-level first-order strength.
Moreover, if such a second-level monster with reduced strength could be killed, it could be sold for tens of thousands of copper coins, which would definitely be a huge fortune.
Although this wealth will definitely belong to Chen Ronghuo in the end, they are still excited.
They had never seen a second-level demon, let alone had the chance to kill it this time.
However, as Chen Ronghuo led the way, the group gradually arrived at a mist-rich valley at the foot of the mountain. The expressions of Zhu Dapeng and Huang Lin froze again.
"Misty Valley? Young Master, the blood-threaded snake you mentioned is not in the Misty Valley, right?"
Zhu Dapeng and other people who often enter this mountain know that this valley is absolutely inaccessible.
Because almost no one who enters here can come out.
