Chapter 1743: Firefly Grass at Night
On the way, Fang Xuan and the others asked Feng Xi all kinds of questions.
Fengxi quickly guessed from their words why they felt pity for her.
It turned out that the charlatan master was biased towards boys and not girls, and not only did he ignore her, but he was also a bit harsh on her.
Feng Xi: "..."
Let’s just say, how did you figure that out?
There was someone who was indeed ignored and criticized, but it was not her, but her senior brother Li Ze who had a broken mouth.
Although Feng Xi repeatedly explained that Elder Gu Liang treated her very well, Fang Xuan and the others had preconceived ideas and thought that she did not dare to say anything bad about Elder Gu Liang.
I couldn't help but feel a little more pity.
Pitiful!
It's so frightening that it has left a psychological trauma!
Seeing this, Fengxi was too lazy to explain.
It's better to be pitiful than to attract hatred.
She immediately changed the subject: "Senior Sister Fang, I have just started learning alchemy not long ago, and I have never heard of Yelan Liuying Grass before. Please tell me about it!"
Commander Liu: “…”
Clearly, there is an introduction to Yelan Firefly Grass in your sea of consciousness jade slips, and you even complained to me before that this herb has too high requirements for the growing environment!
Complaints are complaints, but he thought that sometimes showing weakness is also a strategy and means.
You can tell from the performance of Fang Xuan and others!
They were all smiling and had no hostility towards Fengxi.
Who would be hostile to a poor little thing?
Especially since this poor little thing will provide plenty of emotional value!
At this time, Fang Xuan was introducing the Night Firefly Grass.
"The Night Firefly Grass only grows on the edge of the cold pond, and will produce ears of grain after a certain number of years.
However, on ordinary days the ears of grain are hidden among the stalks and only emerge on full-moon nights.
What we want to collect are the ears of grain, but we need to pay attention that the ears of grain are covered with fluorescent powder. Even if you take the antidote in advance, you will fall into an illusion if you are not determined.
In addition, there is a Netherworld Ice Crocodile in the cold pond, which is the companion beast of the Night Firefly Grass. Although it has been domesticated for several years and is usually quite docile, it will become very irritable on full moon nights and will occasionally attack people.
Therefore, every time we come to pick the Night Firefly Grass, we go together, so that we can protect ourselves even if the Nether Ice Crocodile goes crazy.
Your cultivation is low, so for safety's sake, you can just watch from the side while we collect the materials."
When Fengxi heard this, her face turned pale and she quickly nodded in agreement.
Fang Xuan thought, it was no wonder that Liu Yiyi was not taken seriously by Elder Gu Liang since she was so cowardly.
This is understandable. It is very promising for a person who practices cultivation to be so timid.
Fang Xuan and the others led Feng Xi through many twists and turns and finally arrived near the cold pond.
Fengxi saw a fluorescent light from afar, as if starlight was scattered in the grass. This should be the firefly grass.
Pretty good looking.
Fengxi suddenly had an idea. If he collected some firefly powder and smeared it on Fifth Senior Brother's bald head, would he not need to turn on the lamp at night?
Commander Liu: You are so mean!
After walking a distance forward, Fang Xuan handed Feng Xi a fluorescent powder antidote and asked her to take it.
Fengxi took it and ate it without saying a word.
Fang Xuan and others saw this and thought, this Junior Sister Liu is too naive. Isn’t she afraid that the elixir may be poisonous?
That is to say, if you meet them, if you meet bad people, you will probably be sold and have to help them count the money.
Fang Xuan asked Fengxi to stand still and not move forward, and gave him some more instructions. Then she and the others started picking the ears of Ye Lan Liuying grass.
Fengxi watched with great interest.
She was not looking at the Night Firefly Grass, but Fang Xuan and others.
Under the moonlight, their movements of picking ears of grain looked like dancing, which was quite beautiful.
However, no matter how beautiful something is, one will get tired of it. After looking at it for a while, she felt it was boring and started chatting with Commander Liu.
"Master, have you always been alone when you were alive? Didn't you find me a mistress?"
Commander Liu: "If you really have nothing to do, just sit and meditate, and stop talking about these nonsense!"
Seeing that Commander Liu ignored her, Feng Xi couldn't help but miss the dormant Xue Shi Huan.
Commander Liu is too rigid. Only her cheap grandfather can talk to her.
Fang Xuan and the others were busy, Feng Xi felt that it would not be good for her to practice, so she began to review what had happened recently...
Suddenly, she heard a few screams coming from Fang Xuan and the others. When she looked closely, she saw an aquatic monster crawling out of the cold pond.
It looks somewhat similar to a crocodile, with its entire body covered with blue ice-like scales. Wherever it crawls over, a layer of frost forms.
As its tail swung, several ice cones shot towards Fang Xuan and others.
Fang Xuan and others were obviously well prepared. Fang Xuan led two people to deal with the Netherworld Ice Crocodile, while the others continued to pick ears of grain.
Seeing that they handled the situation with ease, Fengxi did not move and just watched with interest.
Just when Fang Xuan and the others had the absolute upper hand, two Netherworld Ice Crocodiles crawled out of the cold pond.
Fang Xuan and the others had to give up picking ears of grain temporarily and threw themselves into the battle, intending to force the three Netherworld Ice Crocodiles back into the cold pond before continuing to pick grains.
Because these Netherworld Ice Crocodiles are the companion beasts of the Night Firefly Grass, Fang Xuan and her team would not kill them unless they had no other choice, and would just force them to retreat.
About half an hour later, the three Netherworld Ice Crocodiles were forced back into the cold pond.
While Fang Xuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but raise their chins when they saw Feng Xi's pale face.
The sense of superiority is stronger!
Fengxi didn't care about it at all and continued to consolidate his image as a poor little guy.
Just when she was wondering whether she should act out the scene of collapsing with weak legs, the pool of water suddenly churned, and huge waves were more than ten feet high!
The next moment, waves suddenly surged towards Fang Xuan and others.
Before Fang Xuan and others could react, they were frozen by the waves!
That's right, frozen.
The original waves had now turned into dark blue solid ice, freezing Fang Xuan and the others inside.
The next moment, a blood-red crocodile monster crawled out of the cold pond.
Commander Liu was surprised:
"Not good! This is not the Netherworld Ice Crocodile, but the Frost Abyss Blood Crocodile. Not only is its body extremely strong, but it can also draw water and control ice from a distance. What's even more difficult is that the ice it controls can absorb human blood!"
Almost as soon as Commander Liu finished speaking, Feng Xi discovered strands of blood appearing in the ice around Fang Xuan and the others. Apparently, as Commander Liu said, the Frost Abyss Blood Crocodile was absorbing the blood of Fang Xuan and the others through the solid ice.
Although Fang Xuan and others tried their best to struggle, it was in vain.
They suddenly felt desperate.
Although Liu Yiyi was not trapped, even if she immediately sent a message to Elder Gu Liang, it would be too late to save them.
Besides, there is no way that strange monster would let Liu Yiyi go.
If I had known this would happen, I would have rather not invited her to come along, instead I ended up harming her.
Just when they thought they were doomed, they saw Fengxi running towards them carrying a turtle shell covered with green algae!
"Senior sisters, your strength is here!"
