"What a hellish place. It's harder to walk than in the snow, and the temperature is much higher than outside. It feels like early summer." Halfway up the mountain, Miao Jue changed out of his thick cotton robe and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The soil was as sticky as glue, and it took more strength to lift her feet. She complained unhappily.
Tie Heng had no reaction to her nagging, and watched the movements around him vigilantly. Before the evil spirit contained in this dirty land dissipates, the winter snow and cold will not have much impact on the vegetation and creatures here. Tie Heng could see that the plants around him were growing very well. Although the animals and plants in the demon world were all alien-like things in human eyes, their strong vitality was obvious to all.
There were also some demons and monsters scurrying out from time to time on the ground and in mid-air. At first, everyone was wary of them, but soon found that these ugly, weird, or gorgeous little things were not much of a threat, so they let go and caught them. Many monsters and monsters. Even the two military attaches carried some equipment for collecting animals. These little things are of no use to them, but they can be sold to merchants or magicians with special needs. Especially since the demons and insects here are rare species, each one can be sold for a good price.
Only halfway up the mountain, everyone had learned something, and everyone's mood became high. Even Professor Jiang no longer kept a straight face and started talking and laughing. And the rugged and obstructed mountain road doesn't seem so difficult.
"Look there!" Ye Nan, who was walking at the end of the team, suddenly exclaimed. Everyone turned around and followed his directions. They saw an open area under a towering mushroom, with a circle of strange flowers with sword-like leaves growing in the center. They have no stems, their flowers and leaves are close to the ground, and they are about the size of a dinner plate. If the team hadn't walked up a higher steep slope, Ye Nan looked back and happened to spot them through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and probably would have missed them.
"Sword-leaf orchid?" Miao Jue seemed to recognize this demonic plant. He was a little unsure when he first spoke, but he immediately became convinced. "The long and narrow purple-red leaves are really sword-leaf orchids!"
"Jian Ye Lan!" Several warriors were startled at first, and then they all showed expressions of shock and ecstasy. Not knowing who took the first step, the whole group rushed over.
"Wait, be careful of being attacked, don't come any closer." Tie Heng shouted. Only he, Yang Huaiyuan and Zhang Jiaoyu remained where they were.
Everyone stopped and turned around to look at Tie Heng doubtfully, waiting for his explanation.
Tie Heng said calmly while strolling: "The sword-leaf orchid is very sensitive. Once it detects danger approaching, it will launch the sword-shaped leaves to repel the enemy and protect itself. Many demonic plants and spiritual grasses have similar properties. The self-defense mechanism is nothing to us. But the most useful thing about sword-leaf orchids is the juice in the leaves. If these leaves are shot out, the juice in them will quickly turn into highly poisonous, and we will get nothing."
"Oh!" The faces of several warriors who rushed to the front turned red. Although their knowledge of demonic plants is limited, they still have rich adventure experience. Just now, I was so excited that I got carried away and ran over recklessly, ignoring the possible dangers. Now that I was reminded by Tie Hengyi, I felt a little stunned!
"How could I forget this!" Miao Jue hit his head, seeming to blame himself for being careless. She cast an appreciative look at Tie Heng. If he hadn't stopped, the loss would have been huge!
"Don't worry, everyone. I will bless you with the fifteen green breaths of the Wood Technique, so that you will exude a breath similar to that of plants, and you will not be rejected." Miao Jue said, then he kneaded his hand and chanted a mantra, and green breaths appeared one after another. Abundant spiritual light poured into everyone's bodies. Professor Xi and Ye Nan also quickly came to help and cast the same spell. However, the evil spirit here was so strong that the effect of the spell was inevitably affected, so the three of them went back and forth and brushed each one again.
Yang Huaiyuan came over protecting Zhang Jiaoyu. He looked at Tie Heng and secretly nodded at his calm performance just now. Looking at his son again, he is inevitably a little disappointed. "It seems that he won't really understand the true meaning of calmness and calmness in everything unless he suffers some hardships."
After blessing the spell, everyone slowly approached the open space. People with keen eyesight could see that when they approached, the leaves of the circle of sword orchids were shaking slightly. Fortunately, the spell was indeed effective, and they finally returned to normal and did not attack. Then Miao Jue and Professor Xi inserted several special magic weapons into the mud around the sword orchid. The magic acted on their well-developed root systems, completely paralyzing them. Even if they were injured, they could no longer do anything.Fight back!
"It is indeed a sword-leaf orchid. Each flower has seven or forty-nine leaves." Professor Jiang squatted next to a sword-leaf orchid and counted them carefully. He could not hide his joy when he spoke.
¡°They are growing very well and are mature, which is when the medicine is most effective.¡± Zhang Jiao¡¯s words meant that it was time to collect them.
"Hey, it's so sharp, even comparable to weapons made by famous masters!" Professor Qiao stretched out his hand and touched the edge of the blade. Although it was protected by Zhenqi, his finger was almost cut, which surprised him.
"How to collect them?" Yang Zhenbei rubbed his palms and asked impatiently: "Can I take their juice now?"
"Why are you anxious! The effect of making the elixir will be better when you go back, can't you wait?" Yang Huaiyuan pulled his son to his side and scolded him: "It seems that I really need to temper your temper when you go back, you are so irritable. , how to do big things in the future."
"Yes, father." Yang Zhenbei could only bow his head and admit his mistake in front of his father. His strong body shrank and he did not dare to say anything anymore.
"Get out of the way, don't get in the way. Every drop of this juice is very precious. If there is any loss, you can't afford it." Professor Xi here finally found an opportunity to suppress his opponent and deliberately ran over to drive Professor Qiao away. .
Professor Qiao felt his teeth itch with hatred when he saw the other party's triumphant expression, but he had nothing to do with him for the time being. This work of collecting demonic plants can only be completed by four magicians using spells and various special tools. The few warriors can only stand by and stare.
"It's a pity that this sword-leaf orchid cannot be transplanted, otherwise we would have made a lot of money this time." Miao Jue said with some regret.
"This is already very good. If I can get a few pills refined with them when I go back, I will be satisfied." Professor Jiang on one side was very satisfied.
Every part of the sword orchid has value for pharmacists and alchemists, among which the juice in the leaves is the most precious. It can be taken directly, or it can be refined into several kinds of elixirs, all of which are Xuanzi-level elixirs. The main function is to enhance the martial arts practitioner's skills, making the true energy more pure and condensed, which is very helpful for the future practice of returning the energy to liquid and breaking through the realm of fifth level or above. Such a good thing, no wonder everyone was so excited. Unfortunately, the sword-leaf orchid is domineering by nature. Its root system goes deep into the ground and spreads over a wide area. It has a huge demand for nutrients. Apart from a circle of sword-leaf orchids, there are no other plants in this open space on the ground. This is because it is They robbed them of nutrients and they all withered away. This also makes them unable to be transplanted. Once the root system is damaged or leaves the land, their vitality will be quickly lost!
According to the rules, the circle of sword-leaf orchids here was divided into four parts. Miao Jue and Professor Xi were responsible for collecting the larger quantities, while Tie Heng and Ye Nan naturally received smaller quantities. Tie Heng didn't raise any questions, took out a few tools he brought, and started to get busy. He first collected the sap from the leaves. Each leaf contained only one or two drops. A sword-leaf orchid could only collect the amount of a wine cup. After the juice is drained, the remaining leaves, buds in the center and roots in the soil will not be spared. Cut them off one by one and put them into a storage container. These tasks are not tedious and the workload is not large. They just require careful and steady operation. This is not a problem for Tie Heng. He quickly collected the few sword-leaf orchids assigned to him and looked at The efficiency of the three Miao Jue lags far behind him.
Miao Jue, Professor Xi, Yang Huaiyuan and others were surprised by Tie Heng's skillful and quick movements, which also showed how profound Tie Heng's skills in collecting and decomposing raw materials were. They felt that they should re-examine the young man in front of them and not treat him with contempt like other apprentices.
Now that Tie Heng is the first to finish the work, there are still a lot of sword orchids left by the others. However, Tie Heng did not show any desire to fight for it. He just wiped the dirt off his hands and stepped aside with a calm expression. He is convinced that what he has done is enough. If he encounters something good again later, he will definitely be assigned more points.
Miao Jue and the others naturally felt the pressure and couldn't help but speed up. But this cannot be done in a hurry, and it is easy to make mistakes if you are in a hurry, and the three of them became in a hurry again. Tie Heng averted his eyes and pretended not to see the situation here. He had nothing to do, walking slowly along the edge of the open space, his eyes wandering among the strange and strange demonic plants around him, looking for some potentially valuable targets.
A cool breeze blew by, bringing with it a strange aroma. Tie Heng suddenly focused his eyes, and his eyes were completely attracted to a plant with a twisted shape like coral. The plant was about five feet tall and was hidden among the dense vegetation. Fortunately, its color was very bright, as red as blood, as smooth as jade, and interspersed with white spots. Tie Heng found a branch and distinguished it from the surrounding environment.
Tie Heng walked over quickly and separated to block the road.There are weeds and vines. When I came closer and took a closer look, my heartbeat couldn't help but beat two beats faster. Looking down again, there are several clusters of fist-sized flowers growing on the ground. They are blooming one after another, with colorful and purple colors, and many demonic insects are circling and flying around them.
"This is the blood jade tree, and these are the accompanying ghost-faced flowers on the ground. It's unmistakable, it must be them. Hey, even though it's still a seedling, it's still something." Tie Heng thought to himself.
The blood jade tree is a demonic plant more precious than the sword leaf orchid. Even its seedlings can be used to refine earth-level elixirs, which can enhance a person's essence, which is equivalent to improving his innate qualifications. If it were a mature blood jade tree, it would definitely make people fight to the death!
Tie Heng took two more steps forward. Perhaps to protect itself, the blood jade tree in the seedling stage does not emit an aura that would reveal its position, except for its light fragrance. But if you get closer, you can feel that the vitality it contains is frightening. Just standing next to it, a strong vitality rushes towards your face, wrapping Tie Heng in it. After taking two deep breaths, the gentle fragrance penetrated into Tie Heng's body. The fatigue of the past few days immediately dissipated, and the flow of Qi seemed to be a little faster.
"Classmate Tie Heng, have you made any new discoveries?" Professor Jiang came from behind and asked hurriedly when he saw Tie Heng's focused look.
"Yes." Tie Heng stepped aside so that Professor Jiang could see the seedlings of the Blood Jade Tree clearly.
"This is it?" Professor Jiang blinked and turned to look at Tie Heng in confusion, obviously not knowing the value of the demonic plant in front of him. But there seemed to be a light flashing across her eyes, and it was fleeting.
Tie Heng did not answer immediately, nor was he surprised. It is normal for most people not to recognize a divine item like the Blood Jade Tree. Sure enough, Professor Jiang called the others over, and most of them had blank faces. When Miao Jue and the others came over after finishing their work, they had no reaction, but they just thought it was beautiful. Only Zhang Jiaoyu, who was following Yang Huaiyuan, couldn't look away the moment he saw the blood jade tree seedlings. The expression on his face could only be described as dumbfounded.
"Bloodblood jade tree!" Zhang Jiaoyu stuttered when he spoke.
"Blood Jade Tree!?" No one recognized the appearance of the Blood Jade Tree, but they had all heard of its name. At this moment, everyone's eyes began to shine when they heard Zhang Jiaoyu's words. Even Yang Huaiyuan was no exception. You know, there was nothing that could attract his too much attention along the way.
"Is it really a blood jade tree?" Miao Jue was curious when he saw that Tie Heng was the only one who could still remain calm, so he came over and asked him in a low voice: "Do you know what a blood jade tree is?"
She had two contradictory questions, and Tie Heng laughed when she heard it: "Of course I know, what Zhang Jiaoyu said is right, it is the blood jade tree, but it is still a seedling."
"Then how can you still be so calm?" Miao Jue said and murmured to himself: "This time our luck seems to be too much."
Tie Heng smiled and said nothing. He had seen blood jade trees all over the mountains and plains, as well as countless sacred treasures. Such a seedling made his heart beat faster and passed away. It was not enough to surprise him!
Miao Jue was a little unhappy seeing his indifferent expression and wanted to ask further. But at this moment, across the seedlings of the blood jade tree, there was a sound of branches breaking and the sound of someone talking behind the grass more than ten feet away. Immediately afterwards, more than thirty people came out from the opposite side. When they saw Tie Heng and others, they immediately stopped and froze on the spot.
Because of the influence of the evil spirit and dense vegetation, the two parties did not notice each other until they were face to face. Neither party expected to meet other people in such a place. You stared at me and froze there for a while.
