Drunk Immortal Gourd

"No need to go? Why?" Qin Ruyan asked. Not only she, but others also didn't understand that Hou Jiangong would suddenly say such a sentence.

Hou Jiangong said: "I think the spirit monkey I raised should have obtained the spirit wine."

After Hou Jiangong reminded them, everyone remembered that Hou Jiangong raised a monkey, which was the same species as the iron-armed monkey in Yehoupo. It's just that the demon monkey didn't act with everyone along the way. After a series of changes, everyone forgot about it. Now that I think about it, Hou Jiangong must have brought the monkey with him, but he was just using it as a back-up. .

Qin Ruyan asked: "Did your spirit monkey get the spirit wine?"

Hou Jiangong said: "Because the monster has different habits from us, I have always let him follow me secretly and act according to the situation. After that, the monkey king was trapped, and we also lured the monster monkey out of the monster monkey cave, and the spirit monkey Taking advantage of the chaos, he entered the cave and stole a jar of spiritual wine."

The monkey king is so powerful that everyone is still frightened when they think of it. Even if he is injured, he is still capable of killing a few of them, so no one wants to confront the other party head-on. If the monkey really steals When we get to Lingjiu, everyone no longer has to take risks.

"Really? That's great. Then we don't have to take risks. But where is your monkey? Why hasn't it joined us?" Qin Ruyan said in surprise.

"Later, Shi Umbrella died in battle, and we were chased by the Monkey King. I didn't want Shi Umbrella's corpse to be exposed in the wilderness, so I asked the monkey to snatch Shi Umbrella's body back. As a result, we encountered the Three Evils of Nanling, and I was captured by mistake. Temporarily We have lost contact with the monkey, but I feel that he is not too far away from us. If we look around more, we should be able to find him." Hou Jiangong said.

The monks are mentally connected to the spirit insects and spirit beasts they control. Not only can they communicate with each other, but they can also feel the approximate location of the other party. However, this connection has a distance limit. Once this distance is exceeded, the connection will be interrupted.

After Hou Jiangong was captured by Nanling Sanxie, he was taken directly to Nanling Mountain Village. It was dozens of miles away from the wild monkey slope, so it was normal for the monkey to not be able to find him for a while. Now that a day or two has passed, it's almost time for the monkey to come over.

Qin Ruyan thought that Hou Jiangong sent out the spiritual beast he had raised to guard against everyone, but now he found out that it was actually to get the spiritual wine for herself, and later she sent him to retrieve the body of the umbrella for herself. Unexpectedly, an outsider could do better than her, the master.

Shi Xian has been with Qin Ruyan for more than ten years. After all, there is some affection between the two. Qin Ruyan's eyes turned red and he said to Hou Jiangong: "Junior Brother Hou, thank you very much."

Being so solemnly thanked by Qin Ruyan, Hou Jiangong did not adapt and said quickly: "No, no, no, actually I didn't do anything. Compared with Junior Brother Qingyang, I'm far behind."

This is true. If it weren't for Qingyang this time, they might have been wiped out. It was Qingyang who first found a way to kill the ground rat, and then joined forces with Tian Shengcai, Cui Yu'an and others to kill an ear. , it is the balance of strength between the two sides that has changed.

After that, Qingyang resisted the one-eyed dragon Lengyu at a critical moment, sacrificing his own spiritual insect to bite the one-eyed dragon Lengyu. It can be said that hard work is a great achievement and it is life-saving for everyone.

Everyone has already agreed that the loot this time will be considered Qingyang's. When they return, they will hand over the body of one ear of the ground rat and all the rewards will be given to Qingyang.

Qin Ruyan also cashed in on the spot the reward she had promised before coming, ten spirit stones for each person. Although these ten spirit stones were not comparable to the dangers everyone encountered, it was not a small amount. Two months and ten A piece of spiritual stone is much better than staying in Qingfeng Palace to do tasks.

Qin Ruyan's talisman was found by Qingyang. If it weren't for Qingyang, she wouldn't be able to afford even this little spiritual stone. Not only that, Qingyang also returned the other two talismans to Hou Jiangong and Deng Changting. There were not many things inside, so there was no need to make others unhappy because of this trivial matter. Qingyang conquered the Monkey King this time and obtained With a large amount of spiritual wine, the harvest is still huge.

Now that we have spiritual wine, there is no need to take risks anymore, and everyone is relieved. Although the injuries to Hou Jiangong's limbs were not completely healed, they no longer affected his ability to walk. So Deng Changting accompanied him to the foot of the mountain to look for the lost monkey, while the others continued to make repairs at the Nanling Mountain Village.

The two of them went out for most of the day, and in the middle of the afternoon, they returned to the village with Hou Jiangong's monkey. Not only did they bring back a jar of monkey spirit wine, but also the body of Shi Umbrella. The nine people who set out from Qingfeng Palace were finally gathered together, but two of them became corpses.

Everyone was a monk and had seen a lot of life and death, so they were not very sad. Only Qin Ruyan, Shi Jian and Deng Changting stood in front of the two corpses for a while.

Shi Umbrella and Deng Changzhu had no relatives in the sect, so there was no need to bring the bodies back, so everyone buried the two bodies directly in Nanling Mountain Village.

By the third day, everyone's injuries had recovered by 60 to 70%. The minor injuries, such as Cui Yu'an and Shi Jian's, were all healed, and the wounds of the more serious injuries were basically healed. Internal injuries need to be healed slowly, but the overall strength has recovered to 70% to 80%, and self-preservation is no problem.

The sequelae of Qingyang's blood-burning surgery have long since receded, and most of his internal injuries have healed. The only pity is that the dragon armor he is wearing was repeatedly damaged during the melee with the monster monkey, and was finally slapped hard by the one-eyed dragon Leng Yu. , almost completely scrapped.

As Qingyang's strength increases, the medium-grade defensive weapon-level Dragon Armor is no longer practical for him. It's just a good idea to scrap it and replace it with a better one when he has the opportunity.

The matter was settled and there was no need to delay here any longer. On the morning of the third day, everyone packed up their belongings and left Nanling Mountain Village together, heading towards the Qingfeng Palace.

Everyone stayed overnight in Xiaoxing along the way. During the day, they were focused on the journey. At night, they found a temporary place to rest. When they were thirsty, they drank some mountain and stream water. When they were hungry, they ate some dry food. Occasionally, they would hunt a wild beast to improve their lives. The journey was smooth. Fortunately, no more dangers were encountered.

Qin Ruyan would set up her own tent every night and ask Shi Jian to cook her a delicious dinner. She would also go to the river to wash up and dress up in the morning, and the spotted deer would cover most of the journey. However, in comparison, Qin Ruyan did things much more neatly and did not waste too much time on everyone, so the return trip was very quick, only taking twenty days.

After this incident, Qin Ruyan seems to have grown up. Although there are still many minor problems, at least he is not as pretentious as before, and he no longer bosses other people around. He just looks at Qingyang, and there seems to be more A trace of something inexplicable.
