Ke'er's appearance was originally beautiful, but she had just come out of the bath at this moment, and her body was covered with water vapor, like a lotus emerging from water, and besides being beautiful, she also exuded a heart-pounding charm.
"Junior Sister Ke, I didn't intend to take a peek. I just happened to pass by here and heard voices. I thought there were enemies coming and going, so that's why..." Shi Mu explained with some embarrassment.
"I have been hiding in the stronghold these days, and I haven't bathed for a while, so I came here to wash my body while it was still dark." Ke'er blushed pretty, and said quickly shyly.
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the black vines quickly burrowed into the ground.
Shi Mu glanced at the black vine, the thoughtful look in his eyes flashed away.
The two looked at each other for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
"Cough...it will be dawn soon, let's go back quickly." Shi Mu coughed dryly, sheathed his knife, and broke the silence first.
Ke'er's face was reddish, she didn't object, she straightened her hair a little, and followed Shi Mu towards the stronghold.
In the forest in the early morning, the warm sunlight slanted down from the trees and fell on a man and a woman walking forward one after the other.
The man is tall and burly, with arms swinging like the wind, but the woman is exquisite and looks like a small bird.
"Senior Brother Shi is outside at this time, did you come out to practice again last night?" Ke'er's beautiful eyes flashed, and she suddenly accelerated a few steps, walking forward with Shi Mu, and asked.
"Exactly." Shi Mu nodded and said.
"Senior brother Shi is really hardworking. No wonder he is so powerful and can also practice magic arts at the same time. My little sister is far behind. As far as I know, among the young disciples of the Miaoyin Sect, there are very few people who can compete with senior brother Shi. They are on a par." Ke'er said softly with gentle eyes.
"Junior Sister Ke has won the prize, and your wood-type spells are also extremely good. That vine just now must be something unusual, right?" Shi Mu asked casually.
"That's just an ordinary wood-type spell. How can it compare with Senior Brother Shi? By the way, my little sister doesn't have many talismans. I want to ask Senior Brother Shi to help refine a few Fireball Talismans. I don't know if Senior Brother Shi is free. ?” Ke’er asked abruptly.
"As long as my junior sister provides the materials, there will be no problem." Shi Mu fully agreed.
The two people chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. Soon they arrived near the big tree stronghold under the cliff.
At this moment, there was a "crash" from the bushes ahead, and a man came out.
The girl was startled, and when she saw that it was Bai Yuxiu, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Mu frowned slightly.
"you……"
Bai Yuxiu looked at the two of them. His face suddenly turned livid, and he looked at Shi Mu viciously.
Shi Mu glanced at Ke'er beside him, and then at his own body, feeling a bit dazed in his heart.
Ke'er's shawl hair is still wet at the moment, and it is obvious that there are traces of water coming out of the bath just now, and because he himself sat outside all night, his body is covered with dew, as if he has just taken a bath.
The situation between the two of them is indeed easy to be misunderstood at first glance.
Ke'er obviously also thought of this at the moment, but recalled that Shi Mu saw her bathing body before. His face couldn't help getting a little hot again.
Seeing Ke'er's shy expression, Bai Yuxiu felt even more jealous.
"What's the matter, Senior Brother Bai? If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first." Shi Mu said lightly, and walked towards the big tree.
He is very clear that it is useless to explain anything at this moment, and he has no intention of explaining anything at all.
Ke'er then also slightly bowed towards Bai Yuxiu, walked around him, and followed Shi Mu lightly with lotus steps.
Bai Yuxiu watched the back of the two walking towards the big tree on the edge of the cliff, a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes.
Shi Mu returned to the mine residence and sat down. His face showed a pensive look.
Bai Yuxiu has always been hostile to him, and has often tripped him up in the past few months, but he didn't go too far because of his status as a talisman master.
It just happened again today. The two of them may have completely turned their faces, and they need to be more careful with Bai Yuxiu in the future.
However, in front of other people in this stronghold, he habitually hides most of his strength, and he has all kinds of talismans on his body, and there are so many killers, I believe even if Bai Yuxiu has some conspiracy. There are also enough self-confidence to protect themselves.
Of course, if this person uses some vicious methods against him, he will naturally not be lenient.
In the following time, Shi Mu sat down cross-legged, groped in his bosom for a while, and took out a black bone fragment, which was the bone fragment of the Great Evil Ape Birthless Art.
There was a trace of regret on his face.
He is still unable to practice this powerful magic ape bodiless formula.
After the Tianxiang Kungfu advanced to the fourth level, Shi Mu exchanged a bottle of evil spirit energy and some ape essence blood in a stronghold of the Human Race Alliance. Too weak to withstand the attack of evil spirit.
It is estimated that it will be possible to start practicing the Vigorous Demon Ape Birthless Art after the Celestial Phenomena Art has advanced to the fifth level.
Shi Mu sighed, carefully put away the bone fragments, and immersed himself in the cultivation of astronomical skills again.
According to the usual practice, you can rest for a few days after going out to perform a mission.
Two days passed in a flash.
Shi Mu practiced astronomical skills in the mine during the day, and went out to practice the moon-swallowing pose at night, but Bai Yuxiu never found fault.
But in the early morning of the third day, when Shi Mu came back from practicing the Moon Swallowing Pose, his expression changed slightly as soon as he stepped into the mine.
I saw more than a dozen people in the stronghold, all sitting solemnly beside the stone table.
"Junior Brother Shi, I'll be waiting for you, come and sit down." The young Taoist priest who asked Shi Mu to refine the golden armor talisman before stood up and greeted Shi Mu.
"Why are they all gathered here, but what happened?" Shi Mu asked slowly.
At this time, Ke'er in the crowd smiled at Shi Mu, and pointed to a stone bench beside him.
Shi Mu had a thought, then walked over and sat down.
A shadow flashed in the depths of Bai Yuxiu's eyes, and the veins on his neck disappeared as soon as they appeared.
"Since everyone is here, I don't want to talk nonsense. Let's take a look at this first." He took a deep breath, and without looking at Shi Mu and Ke'er, he turned his hand and took out the white disc, and the white light flashed. Condensed into a white light curtain in mid-air, a line of missions in red text appeared on it.
Shi Mu's face changed slightly.
There are certain standards for the colors used in missions issued by the alliance. Common missions are white, special missions are black, and only particularly important missions will be displayed in blood-colored text.
Others were shocked when they saw the red text.
"This is the alliance mission we just received this morning. We are asked to sneak attack a barbarian food and grass stronghold fifty miles away from the mountains and burn all the food and grass there." Bai Yuxiu looked around and said.
"The food and grass stronghold near the mountains... Could it be the barbarian stronghold near Yingchoujian?" A disciple of Fenghuomen asked in shock.
"That's right, it's right there." Bai Yuxiu nodded expressionlessly.
"How could this be possible? I have gone to investigate the stronghold in Yingshoujian. The terrain there is dangerous, there are hundreds of barbarians guarding it, and there are many totem warriors. How can the dozen of us be able to deal with it?" Feng Huo The disciple said anxiously.
"No matter how dangerous the blood-letter mission issued by the alliance is, we can only carry it out." Bai Yuxiu glanced at the man and said calmly.
When the other people present heard this, their hearts sank, but no one said anything.
The alliance punished disobedient disciples extremely severely, ranging from sealing their cultivation bases and dispatching them to various places to perform hard labor, or directly abolishing their cultivation bases, demoting them to handymen, and banning them from leaving the mountain gate for life.
"Although this task is difficult, the merit point reward after completion is also extremely generous. There are a total of 800 points. Of course, it will be distributed fairly according to the amount of effort you make." Bai Yuxiu glanced at everyone and said slowly.
When everyone heard this, their faces became a little better.
"Since no one has any objections, let's discuss the specific arrangements first." Seeing this, Bai Yuxiu took out a piece of plain paper from his bosom, on which he drew a topographic map of a valley.
"I have been to Yingshoujian before. It was originally a mountain stronghold occupied by bandits and robbers. The location is quite secret. After the barbarians invaded, those robbers abandoned the village and fled, so the barbarians used it as a stronghold for food storage. I roughly remember the terrain there, and I have drawn it for your reference." He said, spreading the paper on the table.
Shi Mu raised his eyes and looked over. Bai Yuxiu had drawn the map of Yingchoujian in great detail, and the terrain around the valley was clearly marked.
Some buildings are simply outlined in the gourd-shaped valley, which looks like a fortress, and it can be roughly seen that it is divided into two layers.
He took a look at the Fenghuomen disciple who had been to Yingchoujian, and saw that there was nothing unusual about him, so he felt relieved.
It seems that the terrain drawing should be a big problem.
"As Junior Brother Zheng said, there are many barbarians stationed at Yingchoujian and their strength is strong, but it is absolutely impossible for a dozen of us to fight recklessly." Bai Yuxiu said solemnly.
"What clever plan did Senior Brother Bai come up with?" Ke'er asked with a crisp and clear voice.
"Hehe, I don't dare to take a clever plan. After discussing with a few juniors, I decided to divide the troops into two groups. One of them pretended to attack the stronghold to lure the enemy, trying to attract the attention of the garrison barbarians, while the other team took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the eagle Sorrow stream, waiting for an opportunity to burn barbarian food and grass." Bai Yuxiu smiled at Ke'er, and explained slowly.
As soon as Bai Yuxiu said this, everyone around the stone table fell silent.
Many people frowned, while some showed thoughtful expressions on their faces.
This strategy is not a clever one, but it is quite satisfactory. If there are no accidents, there are still many opportunities to complete the task.
After thinking about it for a while, no objection was raised.
"Since everyone has no objections, let's discuss the distribution plan next." Seeing this, Bai Yuxiu showed a rare smile on his face. (To be continued.)
