Gu Qing discovered that on the bank of Daze in Longze Mountain, in addition to monks forming teams everywhere, there were also many stalls selling things.
This made him very interested. If he could buy a bunch of dendrobium from these monks, even just one plant, he would not have to go into the mountains to look for it.
So Gu Qing said hello to the team leader, Old Man Guo, and strolled to the monks setting up stalls.
Zhang Qiuyun became more and more suspicious the more she looked at him. She glanced at Meng Yan and said through her spiritual consciousness: "Let's go! Let's follow him and take a closer look to see how many spiritual stones he is carrying."
Meng Yan had no choice but to compose her face with her second senior sister, forced a smile and stepped forward to catch up with Gu Qing, and said with a smile: "We are also walking around, I wonder what brother Gu has to buy? Maybe our sisters do!"
"Dendrobium officinalis! This herb has been lacking in alchemy recently." Gu Qing did not intend to hide it from them. This was just a herb used to prepare the Hundred Meridians Elixir. Although it was precious, it may not be needed by everyone.
The two women looked confused, as if they had never heard of dendrobium.
At this time, a yellow-faced man setting up a stall said casually: "Hey, Dendrobium is a precious medicinal material. Whenever monks get it, it is used to refine the Hundred Meridians Pill. How can they sell it at will? You can't buy it!"
Gu Qing felt a chill in her heart and looked back.
This big yellow-faced man with six levels of physical cultivation had a proud look on his face, and he talked eloquently: "At first glance, you look like a fledgling boy. You dare to explore Longze Mountain after only one level of physical cultivation. Hehe, I often listen.
People say that there are bunches of dendrobium growing on Longze Mountain, but can you pick them?"
Gu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and his emotions and anger were invisible. He finally got a clue, but how could he let it go so easily? Even if the other party said something that was not thoughtful, Gu Qing just pretended not to hear it, and it was still the same.
He cupped his hands and asked politely: "It turns out that Brother Tao is a well-informed person. Where can I pick Dendrobium officinalis? Please give me some advice."
The yellow-faced man looked Gu Qing up and down, and said coldly: "Do you have any spiritual stones? As long as you can afford ten middle-grade spiritual stones, I will print a jade slip of the map of Longze Mountain for you.
Remember where Dendrobium is distributed."
Gu Qing smiled slightly, grabbed a handful of middle-grade spiritual stones from the storage bag with his right hand, and threw it to him.
The yellow-faced man showed a satisfied smile on his face. He closed his sleeves and handed a jade slip to Gu Qing. He chuckled and said: "Little brother, don't blame me for not reminding you. The distribution of dendrobium from entering the mountain to bunching flowers."
The path marked on the map is absolutely accurate, but the road is very dangerous. Whether you can get there or not is your business and has nothing to do with me!"
Zhang Qiuyun and Meng Yan were both dumbfounded. Gu Qing was willing to spend thousands of spirit stones to buy just a jade map slip. This was not an ordinary wealthy person!
Now, not only Zhang Qiuyun, but even Meng Yan couldn't help but become more enthusiastic towards Gu Qing. She pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Brother Gu's bold move is impressive! Let's do this. Our sisters can go back and talk to Mr. Guo for you.
, after entering Longze Mountain, go to the direction marked on the map to help you pick the dendrobium, how about it? Just give us some spiritual stones!"
Zhang Qiuyun's face darkened after hearing this, and she hurriedly looked at Meng Yan, and said through her spiritual consciousness: "You are stupid! This boy is a stupid young man, and he will die in my hands sooner or later! You ask the team to help him collect medicine, and then go away
If I get his spiritual stone and wait for the opportunity to kill people and seize the treasure, how can I make any profit?"
Seeing that the second senior sister was still thinking about this, Meng Yan could only smile bitterly, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
Gu Qing pretended not to know and smiled calmly: "Okay! Sister Meng's suggestion is good. With the map and jade slip in my hand, our team can go directly after entering the mountain."
"I don't agree!" Zhang Qiuyun was anxious and stopped for her junior sister. She said displeasedly: "Since it is a team training and everything is subject to the captain's orders, how can you be allowed to do whatever you want? Why should the team go with you to find Dendrobium sibiricum?
, what if you get into danger on the way? You can only leave the team at any time after entering the mountain and pick it yourself!"
Meng Yan secretly sighed in her heart: "Second Senior Sister is really vicious and scheming! It seems that she is determined to win, and it is not convenient for me to block Second Senior Sister's financial path."
Therefore, Meng Yan also nodded her head lightly and said bitterly: "Well, what Second Senior Sister said makes sense!"
Gu Qing's cold eyes swept over the two women, and the corners of his mouth curled up, but without showing it on his face, he said calmly: "Since both of you don't agree, let's just drop this matter and treat it as if I didn't say anything. I still want to do it."
I'm going to go somewhere else, sorry."
Gu Qing went around the various stalls again, asking about bunches of dendrobium and buying map jade slips from monks who had been to Longze Mountain. After comparing several jade slips, he knew whether they were genuine or fake.
However, in the jade slips of maps he bought later, there were very few words marked with the words "Dendrobium officinale" on them. Even if they were, it was a rough direction, far less detailed than the one the yellow-faced man sold to him.
Finally, Gu Qing returned to meditate under the ancient trees beside Daze, waiting for the opportunity to enter the mountains.
During this period, two monks arrived one after another. They were all old acquaintances of the captain, the hunchbacked old man Guo. One of the monks in green robes carried a fifth-level giant sword with golden light on his back. He was obviously a swordsman.
build,
The other one was a burly man, carrying a big earth spirit stick as thick as the mouth of a bowl in his hand. He looked like a ferocious god. Although he was in the middle stage of cultivation, he didn't know how to restrain his aura, giving Gu Qing
It brings a lot of spiritual pressure.
When the green-shirted swordsman saw an extra person in the team for the first time, he frowned and asked the captain: "Where did this kid come from? How could you bring up a weakling who is at the first level of cultivation?"
"He's a stupid boy, don't pay attention to him! I took him into the mountain just for the sake of Qian Huan Sect."
Guo Lao'er obviously regarded Gu Qing as a young and foolish boy. When the green-shirted swordsman heard that it was Zhang Qiuyun and Meng Yan who brought him, he didn't say anything more. Instead, he started teasing the two girls, but was often rolled back.
As for the burly man with a fierce look, he only said hello to Mr. Guo and didn't say a word again. He ignored everyone, let alone Gu Qing.
When it came to the night of looking at the moon, all the monks who had formed a team in Dashepan became nervous and looked straight at the rising moon.
Mr. Guo held the spirit wood crutch and ordered: "Everything is ready! Zhang Qiuyun, Meng Yan, you two must keep your magic power at its peak and be ready to help me and Shuiyin!"
Gu Qing had a clear understanding in his heart. No wonder he had seen many teams recruiting Narcissus Yuan monks before, and those who knew the intermediate water concealment technique were given priority. It turned out that they wanted to sneak their teammates across Daze under the eyes of Nielong.
He saw Mr. Guo, the green-shirted swordsman and Zhang Qiuyun standing together. But Meng Yan called him and the burly man to stand together, and repeatedly warned: "You two should stay close to me, my water concealment skills are not as good as
Second Senior Sister, you can only cover a distance of one foot, and you will enter the water later. If you get too far away, the evil dragon will notice you, but don't blame me for not warning you."
Gu Qing nodded. In fact, he also knew the Water Hidden Technique, but it could only cover himself. Shuiyin's blue water bubbles could not cover others. However, he did not say anything and secretly thought: "So many Shuixianyuan monks are capable of intermediate levels."
Water Hidden Technique! Even Zhang and Meng can know it. It doesn’t seem to be a precious Taoist technique. It is probably sold in many markets. Hehe, why should I sacrifice the near and seek the far? "
Immediately, Gu Qing cast his eyes on Zhang Qiuyun's storage bag, and sneered in his heart.
Everyone waited until the second watch, when the bright moon rose into the sky. In the humid atmosphere emanating from the vast swamp, the fishy smell gradually reached its peak!
Gu Qing paid close attention to all the movements in Daze.
Suddenly, the evil dragon emerged from the water! On the huge seventh-order evil dragon, countless dragon scales flashed with brilliance, and the big waves it brought out were so strong that they hit the shore hard, making all the monks change their colors.
"This is much more ferocious than the seventh-level ice dragon guarding Songyang Cave!" Gu Qing's eyes narrowed, and he saw that all the monks on the shore were holding their breath and concentrating, not even daring to take a breath, so he remained silent.
Watching.
After a short time, several evil dragons emerged from the water one after another. There were three seventh-level evil dragons, and the rest were all smaller sixth-level evil dragons. They were all following the seventh-level evil dragons. They were obviously the three seventh-level evil dragons.
The dragon's sons and grandsons.
These evil dragons, without exception, spit out red demon elixirs to absorb the brilliance of the moon on the moon-gazing night.
What shocked Gu Qing even more was that, except for where they were, from a distance, the swamp was shining with the brilliance of dragon scales, and there were scenes of evil dragons emerging from the water everywhere. There were more than just these three evil dragons above the seventh level!
"No wonder hundreds of cultivators are so silent and dare not go into the water. It turns out that the great swamp surrounding Longze Mountain is worthy of its name, and there are too many evil dragons living in it!"
Gu Qing felt bitter in his heart. At the same time, he also thought that if he wanted to come out once he entered Longze Mountain, he would have to wait until a month later on the night of looking at the moon, when Shuiyin came out across the water. If he directly drove the sword light across the sky of Daze,
The evil dragon who sacrificed the demon pill must have seen it and swallowed it in one gulp! No matter how fast his fifth-level demon dragon is, it is not as fast as these big seventh-level evil dragons!
Everyone waited until midnight, when the bright moon gradually turned behind Longze Mountain. Meng Yan, Gu Qing and the burly man followed Guo Lao and others and hurried to the shore of Daze.
Old Man Guo said in a deep voice: "Let's wait a little longer! When the evil dragon goes away facing the moonlight, let's go into the water again!"
Gu Qing and others nodded in agreement. In any case, Old Man Guo's experience was of great importance, so he was right to listen to him.
Sure enough, some of the monk team couldn't keep their composure and jumped into the water first before the nearby evil dragon could fly away in pursuit of the moonlight. What they encountered was the seventh-level evil dragon turning around with its huge dragon head, its lantern-like dragon eyes glowing fiercely, and its mouth filled with blood.
A water column spurted out!
"Ah!" There was a shrill scream, and the monks who were the first to enter the water were all wiped out by the water column, turned into a ball of pus, and sank to the bottom of the swamp.
Gu Qing was greatly shocked when he saw it, and was quite afraid of the water arrow skills of the seventh-level evil dragon.
The monks on the shore of Daze shivered and stepped back one after another. When the seventh-level evil dragon swung its tail, flew towards the moonlight and disappeared completely, they all groped their way to the shore of Daze.
In twos and threes, they sneaked into the swamp under the shroud of the water concealment technique of their Narcissus Yuan teammates.
