The lake was calm, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.
Having just escaped the frenzy needle bees' pursuit, Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing's mood was heavy.
In front of them, there was a trace indicating that someone had started a fire to roast meat at this location.
Earth Communication Ear Grass!
Fang Yuan willed, and ginseng roots grew out of his ears. The ginseng roots dropped down and rooted into the ground, causing Fang Yuan's hearing to increase sharply.
After listening for a while, his expression relaxed, not discovering anyone hiding in the surroundings.
Then, he walked up to the remains of the bonfire and reached out to rub the ashes. He did not let go of any other clues.
"This bonfire was started half a month ago, the person was alone and should not be nearby." After a while, Fang Yuan reported the results of his investigation.
"Alone? Clan Gu Masters travel in groups of at least five people. It seems this person is a demonic Gu Master. "Bai Ning Bing frowned, sighing.
If it was a clan Gu Master, they were all righteous, and there was a possibility of interaction. If it was a demonic Gu Master, once they met, it would be a battle.
Such a scene was not because 'righteous people are usually kind, while demonic people are evil'.
But when they are alone, they would show their true nature. In the wilderness, there were no restrictions, so they could act without worries.
Righteous Gu Masters usually travel in groups. Thus, when dealing with matters, they would consider the opinions of the people around them, and act closer to the normal social norms.
Demonic Gu Masters usually travel alone, with high vigilance and a strong sense of danger. Without anyone to rely on, they would first ensure their own safety.
This was not good news for Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing.
If they met a righteous clan Gu Master, they could still avoid fighting. But if they met a demonic Gu Master, a battle was unavoidable. Unless they showed great strength, causing the demonic Gu Master to cower in fear.
However, Gu Masters who could travel alone in the wilderness were mostly Rank four, and had special methods. How many weaklings could there be?
But Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing, one was a Rank three rookie, while the other was a Rank one initial stage. Without sufficient comprehensive Gu worms, walking in the forest could be said to be difficult, with dangers everywhere.
If he met a demonic Gu Master, he would definitely be in trouble.
"Fortunately, we discovered the traces of this bonfire in advance. Next, don't rush blindly. Take a rest first. At the very least, treat the injuries on your body, "Fang Yuan said.
Bai Ning Bing nodded. With his reminder, she felt a dull pain in her back.
Fang Yuan summoned the Tusita Flower, took out some bandages and herbs, and gave most of them to Bai Ning Bing.
The Carapace Gu's defensive area was small, and its practicality was barely satisfactory. But this time, it was a great help to Fang Yuan.
Because Bai Ning Bing attracted the majority of the attacks, the wounds on Fang Yuan's body were negligible.
Fang Yuan quickly took care of his own matters and rushed over to help Bai Ning Bing.
Bai Ning Bing took off her clothes, revealing finger-sized bloody holes all over her back. It was a ghastly sight.
Frenzy needle bee Gu was a Rank three Gu, they were numerous and had the ability to penetrate. It countered the Sky Canopy Gu, but fortunately Bai Ning Bing had used the Ice Muscles Gu before. The two layers of defense combined to protect her life.
Hiss hiss …
Bai Ning Bing gritted her teeth, taking in a deep breath from time to time, enduring the pain of treating her injuries.
After a while, the injuries were treated.
Fang Yuan placed the empty medicine jar and the remaining bandages back into the tusita flower.
"There isn't much medicine left, and so are the bandages. Even though we have been frugal, we have reused the bandages as much as possible. It seems we need to find a healing Gu as soon as possible. "Fang Yuan stood up, his expression solemn.
Medicine would be used up eventually, and it was difficult to concoct them, so collecting them took time. If there was a healing Gu, not only would the effects be much better, it would also consume primeval essence. Primeval essence could be recovered naturally.
Comparing the two, it was clear which was better.
But an ideal Gu worm was hard to find.
In fact, in this half a month, they had encountered many opportunities. But it was either they were not strong enough, or the environment did not allow it, and the conditions to capture it were not sufficient.
"We need to get a healing Gu! But before that, I have a problem here. "Bai Ning Bing suddenly said.
"What problem?" Fang Yuan slightly raised his eyebrows.
Bai Ning Bing was naked from the waist up, she turned around and pointed at her chest: "Here, it's these two lumps of rotten meat. They are too much of a hindrance, when I run, they are bouncing. When I fight, they are also a burden. I want to cut them off, but I am worried that the wound is too big, and without a healing Gu, it will be even more troublesome. "
She was a genius of Bai clan, and had always been focused on cultivation, ignorant of other aspects, and did not pay attention to women.
Although she had turned into a female body, she had been a male since young. Psychologically, she did not care, and did not treat this body as something important.
Anyway, she knew that the Yang Gu in Fang Yuan's hands could help her, and she felt that she would return to a male body sooner or later.
Thus, Bai Ning Bing had never treated herself as a woman.
Fang Yuan expressionlessly glanced at her: "It will be troublesome to cut it off, you can bind your chest."
"What is binding my chest?" Bai Ning Bing asked.
"It is using a bandage to wrap the chest, treating it like a wound, and fixing it in place." Fang Yuan said.
Bai Ning Bing's expression was vexed and helpless, sighing: "Sigh, I can only do this for now."
The sun gradually set in the west, and night fell.
Wild beasts continuously came to the lake to drink water, and the two did not dare to stay by the lake for long.
Not far away, Fang Yuan found a natural cave on the precipitous rock wall. Although the space was small, it was safe enough. After getting rid of the birds, this became their temporary residence.
A few days later, Bai Ning Bing's injuries gradually recovered.
The two set off again, heading towards Bai Gu mountain.
But considering that mysterious demonic Gu Master, along the way, Fang Yuan was extremely careful, constantly stopping and using the Earth Communication Ear Grass to scout the surroundings.
On the second day of their journey, his cautiousness reaped him some rewards.
Under the tree, he found firewood that had been burnt to ashes. Evidently, it was done by that demonic Gu Master.
On the third day, they found traces of an intense battle beside a stream.
The corpse of a huge green python lay there. The python meat on its body had been devoured clean by other beasts, leaving only its bones.
The ground was filled with its scales, and the stream had changed its course. The surrounding trees were all broken and fallen.
Fang Yuan observed carefully, and his tone relaxed: "That demonic Gu Master once fought with the green python here. This is a hundred beast king level green python, and such an intense battle, it seems that this demonic Gu Master's cultivation is only Rank three. "
But even so, Fang Yuan did not want to meet this demonic Gu Master. He would rather deal with those unintelligent wild beasts or Gu worms.
An intelligent Gu Master would make full use of every bit of strength. A Rank three demonic Gu Master, to Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing, was much more threatening than frenzy needle bees.
But things did not go according to plan, and on that afternoon, the two found traces of the demonic Gu Master again.
"This demonic Gu Master is injured, there are pieces of flesh on the ground. It seems he was poisoned. "Fang Yuan said.
On Earth, there were no pythons with poison. But in this world, it was extremely common.
Bai Ning Bing heard this, and her eyes brightened.
No doubt, this was good news. The weaker the demonic Gu Master, the more advantageous it was for them.
In the next few days, the traces left behind by the demonic Gu Master increased.
With his five hundred years of experience, Fang Yuan deduced that they were getting closer to the injured demonic Gu Master.
"Be extra careful. We can deduce that the demonic Gu Master's injuries are getting worse, and the green python's poison has already corroded his/her body. But because of this, the demonic Gu Master's mentality is unstable, and it is easy for them to go to extremes. "Fang Yuan reminded Bai Ning Bing.
If they were to fight, Bai Ning Bing would be the leader. Fang Yuan's Rank one initial stage cultivation was not enough.
Their biggest advantage now was that the enemy was in the open while they were in the dark.
As the two moved forward, they became even more careful.
Their speed became slower, and the distance they travelled became shorter and shorter.
Finally, one afternoon, Fang Yuan opened his eyes, the ginseng whiskers on his ears shrunk to nothing, "I found that demonic Gu Master! She is in that cave, on her last breath. "
Just now, he heard the faint sound of human breathing in the cave.
"Take advantage of the enemy's weakness!" Bai Ning Bing wanted to fight, her eyes showing a fierce light.
But she was stopped by Fang Yuan.
"Don't be impatient. Why do you need to fight, from the looks of it, in a few days, she will die from the poison. "
"I see." Bai Ning Bing's killing intent lessened.
But at this time.
"The two of you outside, why are you still hiding? I've found you. "A weak voice came from the cave.
Hearing this voice, the demonic Gu Master inside was a woman.
Fang Yuan's expression changed, and he immediately retreated.
"Don't you want my Yuan stone and Gu worms?" The voice came from the cave again.
Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing retreated even faster.
Although the other party was weak, there was a sense of certainty in her tone. She must have made some arrangements in the cave, setting up a trap, and had no fear.
Moreover, no one would be stupid enough to fight with a dying person.
"You want to leave after coming? Hmph, how can there be such a good thing. Stay behind! "Suddenly, a figure shot out from the cave.
"It's up to you." Fang Yuan's figure flickered, and he hid himself.
Bai Ning Bing snorted, activating the Sky Canopy Gu and summoning the Chainsaw Golden Centipede, facing the person.
The two fought for three rounds, and the demonic female Gu Master was at a disadvantage.
She was a middle-aged woman, not wearing shoes, and had a pair of big bare feet. Thick black hair grew on the soles and back of her feet. Her face and arms were covered in a strange green color. It was caused by the green python's poison.
After a while, the demonic female Gu Master was slowly losing. She suddenly stepped on the ground, and shot back into the cave.
Bai Ning Bing chased closely.
"Don't chase a cornered enemy!" Fang Yuan quickly reminded, but it was too late.
Bam!
A loud sound, and the ground under Bai Ning Bing's feet suddenly exploded. Her whole body was blown away. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to Yisou.
