Big man

As the night gradually rises, a dazzling bonfire rises on the quiet river bank.

Xiao Fan and Chu Jiu sat next to each other.

Chu Jiu used a small sharp sword to slowly cut the roasted roast meat on the legs of the beast, then grabbed it with his big oily hands, put it in his mouth unsightly, and started to chew.

If there were other monks here, they would turn pale with shock and stare out their eyes, because the small sword that Chu Jiu used to cut flesh was full of aura, and it turned out to be his own magic weapon.For any other monk, he must love his natal magic weapon, and he would sacrifice it every once in a while on weekdays to further strengthen the power of the treasure.

As a result, the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Lord used his own talisman to cut and eat barbecued meat, which was simply unreasonable.

However, sitting next to him, Master Xiao, who has always been known for his elegance and grace, is in no better condition than Chu Jiu. He holds a dark red long knife in his hand, which has a strange shape and shocking fluctuations in aura. It is Yan Ling blade.

Master Xiao was cutting the barbecue with the blade of Yan Ling, just like Chu Jiu, his hands were oily, he cut off a piece, grabbed it with his oily fingers and put it into his mouth, he ate it with great joy.

"It's delicious, I haven't eaten such a delicious barbecue for a long time... Unfortunately, there is no wine!"

Chu Jiu shook his head and said, his face full of regret.

With his status and status, even if he is a prisoner of Old Monster Sha, if he wants to eat barbecue, it is a matter of words.But there is no doubt that Chu Jiu's good mood now is definitely not because of eating barbecue, but because of making a friend like Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Ninth brother. What you eat depends on your mood, whether you have wine or not. It doesn't matter."

"That's right. Brother Xiao, you are very fond of me. I, Chu Jiu, haven't met a brother who likes me so much for many years... Oh, if you hadn't descended from the sky and killed those coyotes earlier , I'm really in trouble."

Xiao Fan asked, "Why is Ninth Brother going there?"

Chu Jiu smiled and said: "I went for Tu Jingzhi, and the map showed that hyenas and beasts appeared there. I didn't really care about it at first, but I didn't expect that the sealing power of the big formation suddenly moved there. I can’t even control the Escaping Light.”

If there was no restriction of the big seal, he would have defeated those hyenas and fled away.If they were too far away from the earth essence, the hyena beast's immortal power would be useless, and it would never pursue him closely.

"However, as the saying goes, man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation. Everything is arranged in the dark. If it wasn't for this, you and I are destined to pass by each other. Brother will not get that piece of earth essence, haha..."

The Earth Essence Mushroom he obtained, although it is a second-class target, is compared with the Earth Origin Essence.That's a far cry.Now that the Earth Essence Essence is taken away by Xiao Fan, there should be no more Earth Essence Mushroom growing there.

Xiao Fan swallowed a mouthful of roast meat.He smiled and asked, "Ninth brother, you weren't from Yuexi originally? How did you come here?"

Chu Jiu is this person.No matter in terms of breadth of mind or skills and treasures, he is not an ordinary monk.It should be a person with a lot of status.How could such a person be exiled to the land of Yuexi and become the prisoner of Old Monster Sha?

When Chu Jiu heard this, the smile on his face suddenly became gloomy, and then he waved his oily hands and said, "Brother Xiao, it's really embarrassing to talk about it, it's not that I can't trust you brother, it's really embarrassing." There is no light on the top. I never thought that I, Chu Jiu, would be reduced to this point, and it would be unreasonable for me to be used as a tool for gambling games..."

Having said this, Chu Jiu suddenly became angry.

Xiao Fan can fully understand this, his current mood is actually similar to that of Chu Jiu.One can imagine the depression and aggrieved feeling in the heart of the dignified Promise Sect's current head teacher, who was actually arrested and forced to participate in some kind of gambling competition like a "gladiator".

"Brother Xiao, if I can return to the Nanzhou Continent in the future and regain those lost things, I will definitely treat you to a drunken feast."

Chu Jiu put a piece of barbecue into his mouth and chewed heavily, not knowing who he was venting his anger to.

Xiao Fan shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it will not be easy to return to the Nanzhou Continent? We may not be able to pass the current hurdle."

"Why, Brother Xiao, are you worried that even if you and I join forces, we won't be able to get out of this Fierce Beast Wilderness alive?"

Chu Jiu raised her head slightly and asked proudly.

Except for the black and white evil spirits of the Black Demon Sect, Chu Jiu believes that he is not weaker than any of the contestants who entered the wasteland this time. Although Xiao Fan's cultivation is the lowest, he has the earth demon puppet equivalent to the peak monks in the late Jindan period to help him , the three joined forces, there are really not many people and monsters in the Fierce Beast Wasteland who can compete with them.

Of course, after teaming up, you must get double the subject matter in order to inspire the transfer tokens on both sides.

"Brother Xiao, don't worry, activate your token first, and then activate mine... Brother, take this soil essence first, and gather together to see if you can activate your token first."

Chu Jiu flipped his wrist, a white jade box emerged from his oily hand, and handed it to Xiao Fan.

It turned out to be the Earth Essence Zhizhi he had just obtained through hardships, the second-level target, and he gave it to Xiao Fan without hesitation.Tu Jingzhi ranks high among the second-level targets, and as long as a few second-level targets or a dozen third-level targets are added, one side can be activated to send tokens.

This person's aura is really not just pretending, since he recognized Xiao Fan as a friend, he treated each other sincerely.

Xiao Fan smiled, and he was not polite, he took the jade box with his hand, opened it, and a stream of pure earth spirit gushed out, inside the jade box lay quietly a few inches tall ganoderma lucidum.

"Since it is a gift from the ninth brother, I will not be polite to you little brother. There is a red heart fruit here, and my brother will also accept it."

Xiao Fan said with a smile, flipped his wrist, and handed over a fruit the size of a fist. This fruit is as white as jade, full of wood spirit, with little red glow coming out from the center of the fruit from time to time, like a small lantern generally.

Red heart fruit is also a secondary target, even ranking ahead of Tujingzhi.However, there was no earth essence in Xiao Fan's elixir garden, so he exchanged red heart fruit with Chu Jiu.Although Chu Jiu is arrogant, Xiao Fan will not take advantage of him.

Chu Jiu couldn't help laughing, shook his head, and took the red heart fruit without saying anything.

He could see that Xiao Fan was the same kind of person as him, and the arrogance deep in his heart was not inferior to his at all, and he would never accept his gift for no reason.

"Ninth brother, before coming in here, what should Old Monster Sha have left behind?"

Xiao Fan asked, his tone became more and more cordial.After such a round of seemingly equivalent exchange, the relationship between the two has taken another level.

Chu Jiu's expression darkened immediately, and he snorted, "Heartbreaker!"

Xiao Fan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he pondered: "Sure enough, it's also heartbroken grass?"

Chu Jiu nodded, and said: "That's true. As far as I know, all monks like us who are forced to participate in the gambling competition will take a elixir mixed with heartbroken grass. Yizhi, these old monsters, can be said to be omnipotent."

Xiao Fan thought for a while and said, "Ninth brother, how about I feel your pulse?"

Chu Jiu asked in surprise, "Brother or doctor?"

"My little brother has a little understanding of the art of diverging yellow."

"Haha, brother, you don't need to be humble. With your temperament, you either don't study medicine. Once you study medicine, you will definitely have a lot of attainments."

Chu Jiu laughed, and stretched out his wrist in front of Xiao Fan, without any intention of guarding at all.

Xiao Fan calmly stretched out his middle and second fingers, put them on his pulse wrist, closed his eyes slightly, and began to take the pulse seriously. Soon, his brows were slightly frowned. Immediately, he also showed a look of apprehension.

After a full cup of tea, Xiao Fan raised his finger, pondered, and remained silent for a while.

Chu Jiu didn't urge him, but just waited quietly.

After a while, Xiao Fan said in a deep voice: "Ninth Brother, besides the poison of the Heartbroken Grass, there seems to be another kind of poison in your body. If I read correctly, it should be Tianyin Poison, but..."

Before Xiao Fan finished speaking, Chu Jiu stared at him, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Brother, the pulse is as good as the gods, no matter how accurate the words are. Back then, I was treated as silent and tasteless. The Heavenly Yin Poison, known as one of the Seven Absolute Poisons, is undermining, otherwise, how could I have fallen to this point?"

Speaking of which, Chu Jiu was far less surprised than Xiao Fan.This person was poisoned by the heavenly yin, and not only did he not die, he was able to cultivate to the peak stage of the Jindan late stage, which was only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage.It is incredible.

As Chu Jiu said, Tianyin Poison is known as one of the Seven Absolute Poisons. Although it ranks last among the Seven Absolute Poisons, it is irreversible if the antidote is not taken immediately.

"Brother, don't be surprised. Speaking of which, I was able to escape with my life. It was thanks to a small piece of Diminggen that happened to be beside me at that time. , I finally got rid of the toxicity. Now there is still a little bit of the root cause of the disease... Just because of this remaining Tianyin toxicity, I have been trapped in the Jindan stage for so many years, and I can't make any progress. Otherwise, I would have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage How can Old Monster Sha be my opponent?"

Chu Jiu said bitterly, gnashing her teeth a little bit.

But I don't know what kind of powerful character he offended back then, and actually used Tianyin poison to assassinate him.

Xiao Fan was a little puzzled, and Chu Jiu said bitterly: "Brother, in today's world, the word profit is the most feared thing. For the sake of profit, husband and wife turned against each other, brothers became enemies, countless. Back then...cough, this is shameful." It’s okay not to mention it.”

As he spoke, he shook his head again and again.

It seems that the person who assassinated him back then had an extremely close relationship with him.

Xiao Fan didn't explore the grievances he had with others back then, he frowned slightly, and said, "Whether it's Tianyin Poison or Broken Heart Grass, it's not without a cure. It's just that the cure is too hard to find..." (To be continued. .)
