Beasts become gods

Chapter 281 Verifying the guess

The contract ceremony between Jiao Yutong and the colorful thorn-backed pig went very smoothly. Before the sun on the horizon touched the top of the mountain, Jiao Yutong had already absorbed the colorful thorn-backed pig into the spiritual knot, and the colorful thorn-backed pig also

For a moment, he turned into a spirit body and was released by Jiao Yutong. His size suddenly shrunk nearly ten times, but it looked much better than the initial impression. It was clean and tidy, with no peculiar smell, and it was a big, fragrant sow.

During the contract ceremony, Principal Hu Sigui continued to release spiritual pressure. There was no trace of a spiritual beast around, and several spiritual plants that could be uprooted also left the area very slowly. Qiao Bang, Ding

Lin Youxin took Lin Xinrui and Yang Liu to check out the appearance of the spiritual plant, and found that it was not suitable for her, so she gave up the idea of ​​absorbing the spiritual knot, and returned to the four teachers to sit quietly, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and restore her body.

After the contract was completed, the four teachers did not hesitate and directly tore a space crack. The four of them jumped over the space gap and left, making the students look envious and looking forward to using the ability of space teleportation like the teachers in the future.

.

Undoubtedly, this was a demonstration of skills by the college teachers to the eight students, which left a deep impression on the students. They hope that the eight students can perform at a higher level.

Qiao Bang raised his arms and asked the seven students to adjust and continue to move towards the mine. He was a little confused about the mine. In addition to the extremely territorial antelope clan above the mine, there was also the habitat inside the mine.

The black-clawed bats and sharp-clawed magic bats all gave Qiao Bang a feeling that there must be some treasure or a spiritual eye that gathers spiritual energy in the mine, so that all the spiritual beasts gathered here to form a large scale.

Judging from previous observations, there are still countless rare ores in the mine, but the mining team no longer comes here to mine. Judging from the geographical location, the mining team must be under the jurisdiction of Dinghai Province. Presumably, the city lord Feng Muyang should be handling it, but

Mining has not continued. Judging from Qiao Bang's impression of Feng Muyang, there are only two possibilities for Feng Muyang, who is good at generating income from sources, to give up his ore interests. One is that there are unmanageable spiritual beasts entrenched inside. Continuing construction will cause unforeseen consequences.

The influence of containment destroyed its foundation. The second is that the mine has the mother stone that can breed ore. Feng Muyang deliberately left the mine alone in order to obtain greater profits in the future.

Qiao Bang thought about the first possibility and felt that it was not very likely. The overlord of the entire Wanfeng Valley was the Demon-hating Howling Tiger. If there was someone in the Wanfeng Valley who could affect its status, the Demon-hating Howling Tiger would have already fought against him.

Win or lose. The ferocious and brutal appearance was vivid in Qiao Bang's mind and was unforgettable. He did not think that the Demon-hating Roaring Tiger could tolerate other powerful spiritual beasts sleeping soundly beside it, so Qiao Bang reasonably judged that there was no such thing in the mine.

Too powerful a spiritual beast.

The second possibility, which Qiao Bang has already guessed, is that soldiers will be born from time to time in this mine. Judging from Qiao Bang's behavior towards Feng Muyang in recent years, the supplies given to the Southern Territory Legion are all in plain sight.

The value of the gift is very high, but it has not actually damaged the foundation of Wanfeng City. With Feng Muyang's behavior, he will not suffer too much. The gift is fake to win over Qiao Anguo, but Yang Chengfu's heart is true, and he can maintain it with small conveniences.

In interpersonal relationships, verbal care is not as practical as these small favors.

There must be soldiers in this mine, which is why the mining team did not start work all the time. Maybe they have a fixed time to collect here, and there are few people in Wanfeng Valley, so ordinary people will not think about what is going on in the mine.

Of course, these are just Qiao Bang's conjectures, which are judged based on his understanding of Feng Muyang and his behavior. Otherwise, if you buy these batches of soldiers in the market, you will have to spend more money to buy them, and the quality will not be high.

Soldier spirits. With Feng Muyang's behavior, Wanfeng Valley Mine may really be a hotbed for breeding soldiers spirits.

Qiao Bang read a large number of ancient books and modern research in the stone tower. These obscure books are placed on the top of the stone tower and are usually borrowed by college teachers. The first floor of the stone tower is the popular literature for students. Qiao Bang has already placed the relevant books in the stone tower.

I have read the records of the soldier spirits all over, and I will not be blinded when I encounter the soldier spirits in the wild. I also have some thoughts on how to transport the soldier spirits. For this purpose, I specially prepared a dozen containers of different materials to carry the soldier spirits.

Just put it into the corresponding container and it will be stored by the space storage device, so you don't have to go through a lot of trouble to carry it back and forth.

Qiao Bang strode in front, and the seven students behind him staggered forward in a long snake formation. After Feng Wentao and Wen Keliang stopped, they walked through the gravel road to the broad-leaved forest area that was not very dense.

Then he gradually slowed down and lowered his body, observing the densely packed pan-tailed crows that were making calls on the tree branches.

These Pan-tailed Crows have eccentric personalities and like to hunt and forage in groups, but internal disputes are also very frequent, and leaders often change. However, most of the time, the male Pan-tailed Crow is the leader, and the female Pan-tailed Crow becomes the leader due to the change of leader.

Frequently pregnant, it is difficult to have the energy to compete for the power of racial command. Most of the time is spent near the nest taking care of the young. The male pan-tailed crow is responsible for picking spiritual plants, collecting tree fruits, and hunting weak spiritual beasts.

Qiao Bang remained vigilant and did not rush forward. Although the task of killing the eight-headed spiritual beast was urgent, using the strength of eight people to fight against the entire Pan-tailed Crow tribe was really out of his mind. He simply gave up the idea of ​​hitting the stone with an egg and kept his body as low as possible.

He hid his figure and used the lush grass blades as a cover to carefully pass through the sphere of influence of the Pan-tailed Crow. The sunset shone through the gaps in the leaves. The beams of light fell on the faces of the eight people, revealing a mixture of light and dark.

Miscellaneous light markings.

When the eight people walked out of the broad-leaved forest, their hanging hearts were really relieved. Just above their heads, a plate-tailed crow, which was obviously larger than the others, flew over the canopy of the tree and filled the sky.

Most of it was covered, and its tail feathers were dragging on the tree crown. Countless leaves were stirred and scattered, making a harsh whistle. The sound was so ear-catching that it caused other pan-tailed crows in the forest to flap their wings and fly away in the direction where the leader left.

, mighty, through the gaps in the leaves, they saw dense gray-brown figures passing overhead. The eight of them all felt how stupid their bending and sneaking action just now was. In the eyes of these pan-tailed crows, they might

Not even prey.

The sun sets over the west mountain, and the light reflects on the mine, creating a layer of gold with varying thicknesses. Above the mine, the snail-horned antelope is jumping excitedly, and the clanging sound of the successive collisions of the horns is like the dull sound of a hammer hitting the ground.

, the snail-horned antelope tirelessly turned around and continued to charge forward. It was a battle for the right to mate with the opposite sex, constantly consuming the opponent's physical strength.

Qiao Bang briefly explained his next actions, but his steps were even faster than before. He walked to the outskirts of the mine with three steps and two steps at a time. His speed increased but his concentration did not relax. The Colt system had been assisting him in identifying the people in front of him.

The spiritual beast, Qiao Bang, turned around to avoid the sleeping shield bear in front of him, and moved forward to the right, slowing down and observing the terrain ahead.

The more you look at it, the more it looks like the winding stone road that you walked through when you were hiding from the snail-horned antelope. Although the vegetation has changed, it should be the same road you walked before. Qiao Bang has an idea. He will not take action tonight and let Qi

The person hid in the tree hole and entered the tunnel of the mine alone to explore and investigate the situation inside. The tree hole was relatively hidden, and the spirit beasts would not detect it if they hid in it. There should be no risk for the seven people to alternately observe the entrance of the hole.

And with Ding Lin and Zhu Hankun here, it was very easy for the two of them to fly out of the tree hole and pull the others out.

In this huge Wanfeng Valley, there are very few places that can be truly considered safe. Strength is the basis for survival. Previously, I only spent one night with the help of a dove occupying the magpie's nest on a rainy night. It is no longer realistic to find that cave, even if it is a cave.

His host has not returned. After such a long time, new spiritual beasts will also occupy the cave and regard it as their own territory. It is unwise to try their luck again. However, the tree hole that trapped him before is an excellent hiding place.

Beasts rarely pay attention to the situation in tree holes. The previous skeleton has not been destroyed by other spirit beasts. The overall decoration is still complete, indicating that the spirit beasts have not visited. There are many tree holes there, so you can rest assured to sleep for a night.

, there shouldn’t be much risk.

Qiao Bang, who had been moving forward cautiously and looking around, was not ashamed of his caution. On the way forward, he encountered a group of rosewood rock rats carrying rocks on their backs. There were a lot of them, and they were passing through the gaps between tree roots and stone roads.

Running to the right, with four small paws constantly touching the ground, it looks really interesting. Among these rosewood rock rats, the one with darker fur has entered the mature stage, while the one with sparse hair and no carrying rocks on its back is smaller.

The one in the upper circle is the juvenile rock rat.

Rosewood rock rats are very weak, and no spiritual warrior will absorb them as contracted spiritual beasts. They are also fierce in nature and do not want to get close to spiritual warriors. They will dig holes as soon as they sense danger. Although their bodies are light, their four claws are very hard.

, thick and disappear without a trace in a few blinks of an eye, which is why the rosewood rock rat can survive and thrive. Their role in ecology is obvious. The spiritual plants that cannot be digested by gastric acid will be excreted from the body.

Vegetation has grown in many wilderness or rocky areas. This is the biggest contribution of the rock rat. They are the humblest but most beneficial part of the ecological environment.

"Chopin, how long will it take to arrive?" Behind her, Lin Xinrui suddenly spoke and licked her dry lips. The rock rats were startled when they heard the sound. They quickly dug holes and dived into the soil, throwing away the rocks without having time to clean them up.

At the same spot, a strange sight appeared in front of me. A thin and curved ravine was filled with earthen holes dug by rock rats. The road ahead was unreachable and had to be taken in a detour.

"It's almost time. Be patient. We can rest for a night when we get to the destination. We don't have to go back and forth to search for it." Qiao Bang responded in a low voice using his spiritual power. He did not blame his companions. He was not their parents, so there was no need.

Educate them, and if they alarm other spiritual beasts, reality will teach them a lesson.

After hearing this, Ding Lin reacted very quickly. She directly mobilized her spiritual power to gather the water elemental aura, removed the impurities and formed a water ball. She divided the water mass into seven streams and mobilized her spiritual power in front of everyone. Everyone mobilized their spiritual power.

He caught the water ball and introduced it into his mouth, quenching his thirst and admiring Ding Lin's spiritual power control.

After there was no sign of the rosewood rat and there was no movement on the ground, Qiao Bang led everyone around the ravine and continued forward. After a while, he saw a few spiritual trees with tree holes among the sparse spiritual trees, and the surrounding area was quiet.

, the sky was getting dark, Qiao Bang stopped, signaled everyone to be silent, leaned down to observe the situation in front of him, behind him Wen Keliang and Feng Wentao were still talking about something, Qiao Bang turned around and put a finger on his lips, saying

A gesture to stop speaking.

Seeing Qiao Bang's face sinking and his brows furrowed, the seven of them all realized that something was wrong. Qiao Bang had the same expression when he encountered the giant-jawed poisonous weasel. It looked like he was about to face a battle.

Qiao Bang dragged Zhu Hankun behind him behind the nearest tree and stuck half of his head out. The Colt system operated quietly, trying his best to observe everything that might appear in front of him. The six people behind him followed suit and looked for cover to cover their bodies.

, Wen Keliang and Feng Wentao, who were at the back, did not relax. They turned sideways and pressed their backs against the tree, observing whether there were any spiritual beasts or insects nearby on the top of the tree and behind them.

Zhu Hankun's arm was sore from being pulled by Qiao Bang, but he knew that the matter was urgent and did not show off. He waited with bated breath for Qiao Bang's next instructions.

There is no abnormality that can be seen in front of the naked eye. If it were not for the assistance of the Cort system, Qiao Bang would not be able to discover that there is a swamp in front of him, which is covered by patches of shrubs. The moonlight is thick and it is difficult to focus his sight, but Cole

The special system actually marked two spiritual beasts below the swamp.

"They are the Mud Dragon Snail and the Swamp Dragon Snail. There are no other spiritual beasts nearby, but there is a swamp ahead. It is impossible to tell whether they are mature or soul-condensing spiritual beasts. I will leave it to your decision whether you want to kill them or not." Confirmation.

There were no spiritual beasts around, so Qiao Bang became more courageous, and the voice directly reached the ears of the seven people. This time he did not decide to make the decision himself, leaving the choice to his classmates.

"Chopin, are you sure there is no poisonous dragon snail in front of you?" Ding Lin asked. Under the two full moons, her chubby face was clearly illuminated. Her mouth was slightly open, which made Qiao Bang a little dazed. She did not do it after a few seconds.

A response indicates that there is no poisonous dragon snail.

Everyone is no longer surprised by Qiao Bang's observation ability. Facts have proved that whatever he said is what it is, it is more effective than the scrawled hand-drawn paper handed out by the academy. At least the finger-armed mantis active in this area is stated on the drawing.

I didn't see it, but other spiritual beasts appeared.

"The mud dragon snail evolves into the marsh dragon snail and then evolves into the poisonous dragon snail. The evolution conditions of this race are not harsh. When it enters the mature stage, it will evolve into the marsh dragon snail. When it enters the soul condensation stage, it will evolve into the poisonous dragon snail. It evolves through observation.

The final state can tell its cultivation level. Poisonous dragon snails that have not been contracted by spirit warriors rarely break through the soul condensation stage and enter the soul shaping stage. If there is no poisonous dragon snail here, you can consider taking action. But..."

Ding Lin paused for a moment, and the taciturn Yang Liu behind him couldn't hold himself back and asked urgently.

"It's just what? Don't show off~!"

"It's just that both mud dragon snails and marsh dragon snails forage during the day and sneak into the swamp at night. It is very difficult to capture them out of the swamp and kill them. Moreover, the dragon snail family has natural advantages in the swamp, and their racial characteristics are

It has the ability to throw sand, throw mud, and sticky mud. The volute on the back stores a large amount of compressed swamp mud. If you really want to kill them, you have to choose tomorrow morning."

"That makes sense. It's easy to scare off the enemy when attacking now, and the sight at night is not as good as those of nocturnal beasts. If we have a fierce fight and a few beasts attack behind us, there will be casualties easily." Jiao Yutong spoke at the right time. She was actually a little tired. Today

She contracted the colorful thorn-backed pig, and she still feels that her energy is sluggish. She wants to find a stable place to stay and rest for a while, but she doesn't want to do it now. She is in a bad state and takes this opportunity to express her position.

"Then go to the tree hole in front to rest first. I have stayed in this tree hole before. It is difficult to be discovered by spiritual beasts. As long as you don't make a sound and hide your presence as much as possible, it is difficult to encounter danger."

After listening to Qiao Bang's suggestion, everyone also agreed. This forest is not dense, and there are not many spiritual beasts nearby. No trace of the finger-armed mantis has been found yet, so it is considered safe. The seven of them are still satisfied with the location Qiao Bang selected.

Although they were satisfied, this area was not very familiar. Since Qiao Bang had escaped danger here, the seven of them followed him and got into the tree hole to rest. Everyone showed a relaxed look, and the tree

The cave was filled with fallen leaves, green and yellow, and some fallen fruits. Lin Xinrui and Yangliu knew a lot about spiritual plants, and they could tell at a glance that this was a fire taro fruit. It was edible, but the taste was spicy and the taste was lingering.

It persists in the mouth for a long time and requires drinking a lot of water to relieve it. It is very popular in winter, but the fruit will gradually ripen in autumn and is difficult to preserve. A knowledgeable chef will prepare some in advance to squeeze out the juice and store it properly.

When it's frozen in the cold, take it out and smear it on the marinated spirit animal meat. The taste will be surprisingly good. Of course, it must also be paired with some other sweet fruits cut into pieces to relieve the salty taste of the marinated meat.

Everyone looked up at the stars in the sky through the tree hole, and looked at the two full moons above their heads. Qiao Bang thought of the bloodthirsty wolves of the Southern Territory Legion. Every time the moon was full, he could not contain his inner desires, and at the same time he became crazy.

The strength also increased several times than usual.

I don’t know what’s going on with the Southern Territory Legion. Speaking of training so hard recently, I don’t even have time to go back to the house in Wanfeng City. I wonder if Captain Tianye has solved the hidden dangers in the team, and whether Grandpa and Grandpa are still there.

She was worried and couldn't calm down her thoughts. Listening to Wen Keliang saying that she wanted to grow up quickly and become a strong man, Yang Liu wanted to return to her grandma's house to continue taking care of the spiritual garden, and Ding Lin wanted to go to Yongyao Capital to see the prosperity of the capital.

Jiao Yutong wanted to study hard and help the folks in the mountains take care of crops in the future. He had no higher pursuit. Qiao Bang recalled a sentence he had seen in his previous life.

There is no easy word in the world of adults, and the world of children does not seem to be easy either. These children carry the expectations of their parents and the high hopes of their families. They are so sensible at the age of eight, and their ideals and ambitions have been arranged. They have all been arranged.

Are you living as an independent self in this world, or are you living in the world in the shape expected by your parents, striving to cater to the world when you are still in love and your body and mind are not yet rebellious.

Maybe the troubles have always existed, and it has nothing to do with age. It’s just that when you become an adult, you realize it later, lamenting that the world is unpredictable, and thinking about the simple happiness in the past in your dreams...

In other words, people with ideals in their hearts will not feel pain, and love will make them persist, remember their original intentions, and live their best selves.

Everyone swallowed the ** nourishing pills, adjusted themselves, accumulated spiritual power in their spiritual veins, and arranged to take turns on duty at night. In order to prevent those on duty from falling asleep, they arranged for two people to work in pairs to ensure that everyone could sleep.

It was enough, and it also played a role in mutual supervision. Qiao Bang made it clear to the seven people that he would go to the mine to observe the situation first, and said that he had understood Yong Ye's heart and there was no need to worry about his safety. He would leave early and come back early.

It would delay the time on duty. After a lot of explanations, I finally managed to scare the seven people. After turning over and kicking several times, they rolled out of the tree hole, activated the light-hiding phantom to hide their figures, and walked slowly towards

Walk to the mine.

The effect of the invisible phantom is not very good at night, but it can also hide most of itself. He knows that his whereabouts cannot escape the teacher's perception. He did not intend to be a lone warrior in the first place, but just wanted to verify his inference and see.

Is it as I expected, that there is mother stone in this mine, or that soldiers can be born?

If the situation is true, he will report this information to Qiao Anguo personally. There are many powerful soldiers in the Southern Territory Army. There may be good profits from using this mine.

I avoided the spirit beasts who were looking for prey at night. The effect of the light-hiding phantom was quite good, and the spirit beasts did not notice it. I continued northward along the stone road, and soon I saw the mine. The entrance to the tunnel was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.

, the mine is like a living creature, and the irregular tunnel mouth is like the slightly opened mouth of the mine, waiting for you to explore.

The Colter system confirmed that there were no spiritual beasts in the tunnel, but there was dense overlapping information on spiritual beasts deep in the tunnel. Black-clawed bats and sharp-clawed magic bats were among them. The Colter system alone could not identify whether the black-clawed bats were active.

A trace of anxiety arose in his heart, and he hesitated whether to enter the tunnel.

After thinking for a long time about twenty meters in front of the cave entrance, I finally made up my mind and sneaked into the tunnel quietly. While activating the heart of eternal night, I also used the beast suction method to the extreme, and judged whether I was good or bad by feeling the breathing around me.

Safety.

My cultivation level is close to the spirit realm, but I still feel that the speed of spiritual power consumption is too fast when I activate the Heart of Eternal Night. If I don't secretly activate the beast suction method, my body's spiritual veins will be depleted in less than twenty seconds.

He could no longer move forward into the tunnel. Based on his previous experience, Qiao Bang was determined not to use the spiritual power of the light element. If he alerted the group of magic bats in front of him, he would not be able to survive alone.

I was thinking randomly in my mind, and suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder, and then my shoulder was locked by a strong force. I couldn't move at all. I felt cold all over, and I was confused in my mind. I only looked at the road ahead without caring about it.

later.

He quickly calculated in his mind, wondering what was going on behind him, and whether it might be a nocturnal spirit beast following him. He considered the worst possibilities, and when he was about to turn around and attack, he heard a familiar voice.
