The fiery dragon, who had a big half of his body hidden in the fiery cloud, flicked his tail and stirred up a cloud of red smoke.
He stared at Ji Hao with his large eyes and murmured, "Hm, my master is looking for you. Hm, do you have any wine to drink? I've been rushing all the way here, but I haven't even had the time to take a breath, not even a sip of water! "
Ji Zhuo and a group of Gold Crow Clan's muscular men were busy serving the fiery dragon. Vats of rice wine were served to the fiery dragon one after another. The fiery dragon opened his mouth and gulped down thousands of vats of wine, which were brewed by the Gold Crow Clan.
Seizing the opportunity, Ji Hao hurriedly returned to his own home.
The small building was still the same small building, but the small yard had expanded a lot. The yard was paved with bluestone, and was filled with rattan baskets, which were filled with different kinds of herbs.
Some of the herbs had already been dried by the sun, while some were freshly picked. Fresh juices were constantly oozing out from their roots, filling the yard with a slightly bitter aroma.
Qing Fu was sitting in the yard, with a few nimble and pretty young girls helping her with the chores. In front of her was a large black jade bowl, with a few dim spell symbols sparkling on its surface. Qing Fu was holding a black jade pestle, carefully grinding a 'Raging Flame Thunder Vine'.
The Raging Flame Thunder Vine was hard and flexible, Qing Fu had to use a lot of strength to grind it. The pestle had been emitting beams of black light from time to time, sealing the power contained in the liquid, so that the power of the herb wouldn't dissipate too much.
Ji Hao walked into the yard with big steps. Seeing that Qing Fu was busy, he lightened his steps and quietly walked up to her. He squatted down, picked up a flaming red grass fruit from a basket beside him, and put it into his mouth.
The fruit of the Raging Flame Grass was especially spicy, but had a sweet aftertaste. The longer it was eaten, the stronger the aftertaste would be, and the sweetness would eventually reach all the way from the tip of the tongue to the heart. Raging Flame Grass was unique to the Southern Wasteland, and Ji Hao had never seen it in other places.
However, the fire power contained in the fruit of the flaming red grass was extremely strong. If an ordinary Southern Wasteland child ate too much of it, he or she would definitely have a nosebleed. Therefore, if Qing Fu saw Ji Hao secretly eating the fruit of the flaming red grass, she would definitely …
Qing Fu gently slapped on Ji Hao's head, just like when Ji Hao was still a kid. Qing Fu then said to Ji Hao in a low voice, "Look at you! The fruit of this Red Flame Grass is great for dispelling the cold and moist air, but you can't eat it as a fruit!"
Qing Fu stared at Ji Hao with her sparkling eyes. She raised the pestle, seeming to smash Ji Hao's head.
Ji Hao chuckled, took over the pestle and started pounding hard on the fiery thunder rattan, which had already been mostly crushed. His strength was much greater than Qing Fu's. The spell symbols on the black jade bowl shone brightly, and along with a series of clanging noise, the thunder vine was smashed into a puddle of sticky red liquid by Qing Fu within a few moves.
"Amma, I'm back. Eh, nothing changed in the Gold Black Mountain. "Ji Hao said blandly while pounding the herbs.
"There are a lot of brats." Qing Fu narrowed her eyes and laughed happily, "The few large clans around here are more than happy to marry their daughters to our Gold Crow Clan. These years, more and more young people are getting married, and more and more kids are coming out of our clan."
Qing Fu stood up and pulled Ji Hao up.
Ji Hao straightened his body. Qing Fu used her hand to measure the height difference between Ji Hao and herself, and found that the top of her head couldn't even reach the height of Ji Hao's armpit. Qing Fu was both surprised and sighed, "Eh, my Ji Hao has grown up. He's an adult now, not a kid anymore... hm, tell me, do you know any nice girls out there? How close are you with them? When will I be able to hold my Ji Hao's baby? "
Ji Hao's face suddenly twisted. Why did the topic suddenly change to this?
"Amma..."
Ji Hao let out a weak snort.
"Do you know any pretty girls? If you do, bring them back for me to see... If not, the little girl named Man Man you know is not bad. She's from a good family, and has a strong body. She's good at giving birth. "
Qing Fu looked at Ji Hao with her sparkling eyes and said seriously, "Forget it, you men are always unreliable. I know quite a few girls who are suitable for you, later you can go..."
Ji Hao turned around and walked out of his yard, leaving a few shreds of afterimages in the air.
"Amma, Lord Zhu Rong wants to see me. If it's nothing serious, I'll come back for dinner. I'll cook a few boar ribs and roast some sweet potatoes!"
Ji Hao ran as fast as he could. Qing Fu paused for a second, then laughed and said, "Leave the pestle, why are you running so fast?"
Ding! The black pestle accurately landed in the bowl, leaving a beam of cold light in the air. Qing Fu narrowed her eyes, smilingly raised her head, looked at the fire dragon, who was lying on the ground, gulping the wine, and nodded.
Po and Gui Ling stayed in the Gold Crow Clan, while the fire dragon rose into the air and carried Ji Hao, flying towards the south.
Less than three hundred miles south of the Gold Black Mountain, a hundred miles in radius volcano crater appeared in the mountain range. Ji Hao clearly remembered that this place used to be a towering mountain range, but now, it was a volcano crater, filled with boiling lava. A few relatively small fiery dragons had been comfortably taking a nap in the lava.
Above the volcano crater, a dragon-scale-shaped mirror, decorated with flame patterns, floated in the middle of the fire. From time to time, the mirror would release beams of red light to illuminate the surrounding area. Ji Hao clearly saw countless familiar mountains and rivers flashing across the mirror. This mirror had been monitoring the Gold Black Mountain all the time. Anyone who approached the Gold Black Mountain would be discovered by this mirror.
"My master sent me and a few little ones to guard this place all year round. This volcano was also created by Master's divine ability. "
The fire dragon continued, "And this mirror, hehe, my master will know anything that happens within a million miles around the Gold Black Mountain, and he will tell us to take precautions. Ah, I heard that Man Man is going to marry you? "
Ji Hao was stunned. He looked at the fire dragon, gave a bitter smile and said, "Who said that?"
The fire dragon looked at Ji Hao confidently and said, "My master said it! Come on, it's good that Man Man is married. A married woman can't come back to make trouble, in case she would tear off our scales and make some strange things every few days! "
Ji Hao remained silent.
From the volcano crater, a stream of scorching lava rose thousands of zhang high. On top of the lava, a fiery gate suddenly opened.
The fire dragon took Ji Hao through the fiery gate. Ji Hao saw Zhu Rong, who was wearing a red cloak and had a deathly pale face, coughing ceaselessly.
