Xiong Nan Mountain was located in the northwest of Tian Gang Continent. It was more than 20,000 miles long, but no one knew how wide it was. Furthermore, there were many demonic beasts running amok in the mountain. Since ancient times, there had been a saying that millions of soldiers should not enter the mountain. This was one of the origins of Xiong Nan Mountain's name.
However, because of this danger, Xiong Nan Mountain had been in a semi-closed state for thousands of years. If an ordinary person entered Xiong Nan Mountain, it would not take long for them to become food for the demonic beasts. The saying of relying on the mountain to live off the mountain did not work here.
Xiong Nan Mountain had become a place for Xiantian Realm martial artists to make a fortune. The herbs that grew in the remote mountains and forests, the fur and blood of the low-level demonic beasts in the periphery, and even the Monster Cores of the demonic beasts were all sources of income for Xiantian Realm martial artists.
Ling Dong and the other two had been in Xiong Nan Mountain for three days. The Chai brothers were quite experienced. The few demonic beasts that they encountered along the way were all taken care of by the Chai brothers. They did not even let Ling Dong do anything. Most importantly, the Chai brothers knew the way and were very familiar with the terrain!
The three of them were wearing long felt hats. Chai Dingshan walked in front with a machete in his right hand and a wooden stick in his left. He walked in front of them and explored the snow in front of them to prevent them from missing anything. Chai Dingyue walked behind them with an iron spear in his hand, sandwiching Ling Dong in the middle.
Ling Dong, who was sandwiched in the middle, also held a wooden stick in his hand. At a glance, other than the cliffs in the distance, everything was white. Under the tall trees in the distance, there was also a thick layer of snow. When the wind blew, it would rustle and snow would fall continuously.
As soon as they entered Xiong Nan Mountain, Ling Dong changed into the Chasing Cloud Boots that he had obtained last time. After stepping on the snow, the bright Chasing Cloud Boots were covered in mud and did not attract any attention.
Before the sun set, the Chai brothers found a place to camp. They cleared the snow and set up their tents. Ling Dong did not need to do anything. Today, the Chai brothers were no different from usual.
After exchanging glances, the second brother, Chai Dingyue, quietly left the camp like two days ago. Boss Chai Dingshan was the same as usual. He was silently gnawing on his dried meat in the snow. From time to time, he would cast a cold glance at Ling Dong.
Ling Dong's behavior surprised Chai Dingshan a little. He didn't expect that the third son of the Ling family, who was famous for being a playboy, would be able to swallow the meat jerky that was as hard as a rock with the cold snow water. This made Chai Dingshan think more highly of Ling Dong.
"Boss Chai, where are we right now?" Ling Dong chewed hard and swallowed a mouthful of dried meat with some difficulty. In his previous life, not to mention snow water and dried meat, he had even eaten snow water and raw meat. However, his body was obviously not used to it. After all, he had been living a pampered life.
"It's hard to tell. The snow is too thick. It should be the Horned Wolf Cove!" Boss Chai replied in a muffled voice. Once again, he lowered his head and began to destroy the jerky in front of him.
"Oh? How many more days are there to the Hundred Herb Peak? "Ling Dong asked again. Ling Dong entered the Xiong Nan Mountain and set his first stop at the Hundred Herb Peak. There were countless herbs there. As long as it was a famous herb, one could find a few of them there. However, the number of herbs there had decreased over the years due to the patronage of the warriors.
However, the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass that Ling Dong needed had not been recognized by the alchemists and purchased in large quantities. It should not be difficult to find.
Chai Dingshan looked up at the dark sky and said, "It will take another six or seven days. However, there are not many herbs left in the Hundred Herb Peak. I don't know what kind of herbs the third young master wants. If they are old, you should look elsewhere. "
"This herb is called the Three-Leaved Flame Extinguishing Grass. It is very similar to another three-leaved herb called the Sunwheel Flower. The Sunwheel Flower is light yellow in color, while the newborn Three-Leaved Flame Extinguishing Grass is light red." Ling Dong said.
"Light red Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass?" Chai Dingshan pondered for a moment, as if he was recalling, "I seem to have seen a lot of it. However, there is no record of this herb in the medicine book, so I have never paid attention to it." The medicine book was a must-have for warriors entering the mountain. It recorded common herbs and rare materials to prevent warriors from missing the opportunity to make a fortune.
"Where have you seen it? Have you seen a Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass with two red leaves and one purple leaf? Or a Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass with one red leaf, one purple leaf, and one black leaf? "Ling Dong asked with some surprise.
"Oh, this kind of Three-leaved Flame Extinguishing Grass changes color every hundred years. If it's a hundred years old, one of its leaves will turn purple. If it's two hundred years old, aside from one leaf turning purple, one leaf will turn black. The Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass I need is at least a hundred years old. "Seeing Chai Dingshan frown, Ling Dong quickly explained.
To Ling Dong's disappointment, Chai Dingshan shook his head. "I have not seen the three colors of the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass you mentioned. In the three seasons of spring, autumn, and summer on this mountain, the flowers are in full bloom and the herbs are in full bloom. However, the light red Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass you mentioned, I have seen a large patch on Hundred Herb Peak. "
"A large patch? Where is the specific location? Have you seen the three colors of purple, red, and black? "Ling Dong asked. Ling Dong was full of confidence in his search for the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass, but he did not expect to have specific information so quickly. Moreover, it seemed that the Three Leaf Flame Extinguishing Grass had not been discovered by the world.
"The specific location …" Chai Dingshan was about to speak when the sound of footsteps on snow suddenly came from afar. A black shadow rushed toward Ling Dong and Chai Dingshan with the sound of the wind. The cold wind caused the bonfire in front of Ling Dong to flicker.
"Brother, it's me!" The low voice made Chai Dingshan, who had suddenly stood up and gripped his machete, relax. Ling Dong, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes. Chai Dingyue's speed was very fast just now, completely unlike the tortoise speed during the day.
Zi Dingshan was stunned. After taking a closer look, he gestured with his right hand to indicate that Ling Dong was fine. Then he asked in a low voice, "Is it done?"
The second son of the Chai Family, Chai Dingyue, nodded vigorously. Then he said to the confused Ling Dong, "Third Young Master Ling, did you offend someone?"
Ling Dong frowned. "What do you mean?" He did not offend many people, but it was not few either.
"Someone is following us!" Chai Dingyue's face was a little gloomy. "I went back to investigate just now and found footprints that were not covered by the snow. There are many people, no less than ten."
"How can you be sure that they are following us? Maybe it's on the way?" Ling Dong's eyes flashed, and he moved his body slightly.
Just as Ling Dong was moving his body, Chai Dingshan and Chai Dingyue stared at Ling Dong, as if they were afraid of any unusual movements. Chai Dingyue said again, "It can't be on the way. Yesterday, I felt like I was being watched, so I deliberately changed to a remote path. I didn't expect that group of people to still follow us."
"Oh, both of you felt like you were being watched?" Ling Dong asked coldly.
"Of course, both of us have been making a living in the mountains for five to six years. If we don't even have this little bit of vigilance, how can we survive? Third Young Master Ling, what do you think we should do now? There are at least ten people following us. Every one of them is a master of the Innate Realm. Just now, I've already fought with them! "
"So what did they say?" Chai Dingshan, the eldest son, suddenly asked.
"They said that they want …" Chai Dingyue suddenly stared at Ling Dong and laughed eerily. "Third Young Master Ling's head!"
"My head? What should we do? What should we do? Then let's quickly escape, quickly escape! "Ling Dong suddenly became panicked.
"Run? How do we run? I think there's only one way now! "Chai Dingyue said eerily.
"What way?"
"That is to hand you over!"
Chai Dingyue laughed eerily. Chai Dingshan, the eldest son, who was standing behind Ling Dong, suddenly waved his machete silently and placed it on Ling Dong's shoulder. "Third Young Master Ling, if you know what's good for you, don't move!"
Awoo!
In the distance, there was a mournful howl of a wolf …
