Chapter 84 Siege
When Wei Qinglan heard her mention An Ruxu, she looked at her and said nothing.
This secret realm is different from any secret realm he has visited before. If Jiang Lisheng’s guess is correct, then this secret realm is probably not just a secret realm.
There are ancient teleportation arrays preserved, high-level beasts, and many uncertainties. The disciples of various sects may not be able to cope with it. After all, even Zhu Wenyin, an inner disciple, was injured like this. If Jiang Lisheng hadn't sent Shan Gao to rescue her, she might have fallen into Wu Luo's mouth.
Zhu Wenyin was in the middle stage of foundation building and had originally learned the sword technique of taming beasts. If she had not encountered more than one powerful monsters, she would not have been unable to protect herself now.
It can be seen that there should be many high-level ferocious beasts in this secret realm, and only cultivators at the foundation-building stage and below are allowed to enter. However, there are so many higher-level monsters alive. This is inconsistent with the restrictions and common sense of this secret realm.
After walking for a while, Jiang Lisheng indeed picked two more sedges. She happily picked a fruit and was about to put it in her mouth, but then she remembered that Wei Qinglan had just recovered 50% and reluctantly handed it to him, "Brother Wei, you should eat it!"
Wei Qinglan took it and ate it without any hesitation.
Jiang Lisheng handed him another one.
Wei Qinglan still ate it.
Jiang Lisheng looked at the remaining two grass stems and silently handed them to him.
Wei Qinglan said disdainfully, "No, it's not tasty."
Jiang Lisheng pouted, picked up a leaf and threw it into her mouth, chewed it, and spit it out with a bitter face, "Why is it so unpalatable, bitter and astringent." She asked Shan Gao unhappily, "Didn't you say it had no taste?"
Shan Gao opened his eyes wide and said, "I didn't taste anything. This small grass was not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. I swallowed it."
Jiang Lisheng was speechless. She spat out a breath, but it was still too bitter. She admired Wei Qinglan for chewing and eating both stalks. At that time, she saw him chewing with relish and thought it was delicious. She looked at Wei Qinglan and said with a bitter face: "Brother Wei, I want to drink water."
"After turning around this mountain, we should reach the Jinshui River."
Jiang Lisheng quickened his pace, "Then hurry up."
She put away the two stalks of Xun grass with disgust. Since they were not tasty, she would use them for making pills in the future. There was no way she would throw them away.
Sure enough, after turning the mountain, they saw a river. The water flowed northward and was quite turbulent. Jiang Lisheng took out a cup from his storage ring and threw it back in disgust. Who knows if the old man used it to drink water.
She carefully walked to the river, scooped up water with both hands, and rinsed her mouth in the river. After rinsing it several times, the taste in her mouth finally dissipated.
She squatted by the river, drank two more sips of water, washed her face, and saw Wei Qinglan standing there motionless. She said greedily, "Brother Wei, I saw some fish in the water. They look like crucian carp, or silver crucian carp. If I catch them and roast them, they should be delicious. After all, the water is very clear and sweet."
As soon as she finished speaking, a bird suddenly jumped out of the water and pecked at her. The bird had a sharp beak. If it pecked her, there would probably be a bloody hole on her forehead. Jiang Lisheng dodged quickly. She thought she was dodging quickly, but she was not faster than the bird. When she was about to be pecked by it, Wei Qinglan waved her sleeve and pushed the bird into the water.
With a "splash", a splash of water appeared on the water surface.
Jiang Lisheng was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. "Doesn't this bird live in the mountains? It actually lives in the water? Ancient books don't say that the duck's beak is so sharp."
Wei Qinglan glanced at her and said nothing, because he noticed that there were many monsters approaching. As expected, he turned around and saw a group of four-horned beasts led by a human-faced beast coming silently from behind, surrounding them with the river bank as a blind spot. At the same time, one, two, three... countless water birds with sharp beaks appeared in the water.
Jiang Lisheng was so frightened, "Wuluo, Fuzhu, and E? So many..."
Ancient books record that there is a beast in Ao'an Mountain, which looks like a white deer with four horns on its head. Its name is Fuzhu. Ao'an Mountain is ten miles away from Qingyao Mountain, so it is not surprising that Fuzhu appears here, but there are too many of them.
She was a little panicked, "Brother Wei, what should we do? Can you handle these things?"
Wei Qinglan drew out the Xiantian Sword, "Protect yourself and wake Zhu Wenyin up."
After saying this, he swung his sword and faced the human-faced beast and a group of men.
Shan Gao spat out the sword in his mouth, threw Zhu Wenyin to the ground with a "bang", and rushed over to deal with the duck that rushed out of the water.
One man and one beast had to deal with a large group. Wei Qinglan swung his sword and the beasts could not get close to him. The mountain monster spewed fire and for a while even the ducks could not get close to him.
Jiang Lisheng stretched out his hand and pushed Zhu Wenyin, "Hey, wake up, wake up quickly."
Zhu Wenyin was unconscious and she pushed her several times, but she still didn't wake up.
Jiang Lisheng was anxious. He scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on her face. "If you don't wake up, I'll throw you into the water and make you a meal for these birds."
This sentence worked, and Zhu Wenyin finally opened her eyes.
Jiang Lisheng breathed a sigh of relief, handed her the sword, and urged, "Hurry, take your sword and help Brother Wei and Shan Gao, otherwise we will all be doomed."
Zhu Wenyin then saw the situation around her clearly and her face changed with horror, but she didn't have time to think about it and swung her sword to help Wei Qinglan.
Jiang Lisheng saw that she was not awake and ran away when she saw danger, so she could still be saved. She had no spiritual power and could not kill with a sword, so she could only take out magic weapons. High-level magic weapons could not be used here. She was not familiar with other magic weapons and was afraid that they were not accurate enough and would accidentally hurt Wei Qinglan. She picked and chose and only picked out a rope, thinking that this one could still be used.
She studied the rope for a while, then swung it out and with a "snap" she tied up two four-horned beasts. She immediately got excited and swung the other end of the rope out and with a "snap" she tied up two more.
She was so happy all of a sudden. Isn’t this too useful?
She wondered what to do with the four Fuzhu. Should she lock them up in the magic weapon first? But looking at the sharp corners of the Fuzhu, she was really afraid that if she let them go, they would poke the magic weapon apart.
It is said that the meat of Fuzhu is edible and has sharp horns, making it a good material for refining weapons.
She decided to go all out and took out a knife from her storage ring. The knife was very sharp. She tried to cut Fu Zhu's horn. With a "click", the knife was bent. She was stunned. "Is it so strong? Is Senior Brother Wei's flying boat only this strong?"
If this is used to refine weapons, it will definitely be extremely strong.
Jiang Lisheng pondered and dug with a knife. After a while, her hands were covered with blood and sweat. It took her a while to dig out a horn. However, she was not discouraged at all and continued to dig. Using Fuzhu's horn to deal with its own horn was indeed more useful than a knife.
There was too much blood here, and for a moment, even if there were some fish that had escaped, no one would come over, and even the ducks did not dare to fly over.
