Chapter 3987: Pressure on the Mountaintop
Su Chen was speechless, and put the little gecko in Luo'er's arms, saying: "Since you think it's cute and beautiful, then you take care of it."
Luo'er smiled, holding the little gecko, with a maternal look.
Su Chen picked up a fragrant roasted rabbit, tore off a piece and started eating.
The little gecko saw this, and it bared its teeth and claws again, as if it wanted to eat it too.
Luo'er saw this, picked up her own roasted rabbit, tore the rabbit meat into small pieces and fed it to the little gecko.
At first, she only took a little bit, because the little gecko was really small. But soon, she found that she took too little, and the appetite of this little gecko seemed to be disproportionate to its body size.
Luo'er continued to feed the little gecko meat, and the little gecko had clearly eaten a rabbit leg just now, and now it continued to eat meat in large mouthfuls, but there was no sign of its stomach swelling at all, as if it was a bottomless pit.
Soon, the two rabbits were divided up. Su Chen was still not satisfied, so he got up and went for a walk. He hunted a goat and also gave it to Luo'er to deal with.
Soon, the fragrance came again, and Su Chen's appetite was aroused, and he started to eat again.
Luo'er also ate while feeding the little gecko. Because there was a lot of mutton, she did not restrict the little gecko from eating.
When the last piece of mutton was finished, Su Chen and Luo'er had only eaten about half of it, and the other half went into the little gecko's stomach.
The little gecko was satisfied, and when it was time to sleep at night, it did not come to Su Chen, but lay on Luo'er's shoulder and took a nap.
After a night's rest, Su Chen and Luo'er continued on the road the next day and went to the middle of the mountain.
There was no formation like the last time, but the natural dangerous mountains and bad waters were also full of dangers. Moreover, there were powerful monsters here, and there were all the initial stage of Tonglijing everywhere, and there were also some intermediate stage of Tonglijing.
There is no way. Although the four camps often come to Cangjin Mountains to sweep the monsters, this area is an exception. The terrain is too dangerous and it is difficult for the four camps to enter.
The reason why the spiritual medicine was found here was due to a coincidence. As early as when Chijiao City was established, a large number of masters were dispatched to sweep the surrounding areas, and someone found spiritual medicine in this area.
However, after so many years, the spiritual medicine in this area has become less and less due to the picking of herbalists. Even in recent decades, few people come here to pick medicine.
This area is also very large. Although Su Chen and Luo'er are fast, they can't go around this area to find Xuanyin vines without ten days and half a month.
This time is a bit too long. It is not enough for the half-month limit mentioned by the old man.
Luo'er saw Su Chen frowning and silent, and was also a little worried about Su Chen. He said to the little gecko on his shoulder: "Little gecko, the young master wants to find Xuanyin vines. Do you know where it is?"
Su Chen also shook his head. How could this guy know? Not to mention that it has been living in the mustard seed space, even if it lives in the outside world, it is still just a gecko.
Surprisingly, the little gecko really showed a thoughtful look. After a while, it cried "Woo", jumped out of Luo'er's arms, and ran in one direction.
Could it be that this guy really knows where the Xuanyin vine is?
Su Chen and Luo'er followed the little gecko, but after a few steps, the little gecko stopped moving, spread its limbs, and lay on the ground.
"What is this?"
Su Chen asked.
"It should be tired."
Luo'er explained for the little gecko, then picked up the little gecko, put it on her shoulders, and continued to walk forward in the direction pointed by the little gecko's front paws.
Su Chen was also speechless. Why didn't he find this little gecko so mean before?
Could it be that as the body grows bigger, the mind also grows?
Following the direction pointed by the little gecko, the road goes left and right for a while, and it is very difficult to walk.
After about two hours, the little gecko finally stopped and stopped pointing the direction.
"Huh?"
Su Chen found that there was a towering tree in front of him, and on the branches of this tree, there was a gray-brown vine wrapped around it. It was hard to find it without careful observation.
"Xuan Yin vine!"
Su Chen immediately recognized the vine. He didn't expect that he could really find Xuan Yin vine here.
Moreover, it was the little gecko who found it? I didn't expect that this guy could really be useful.
"Are there any other precious natural treasures nearby? Take us to find them again."
Su Chen was excited and said to the little gecko.
The little gecko thought about it, then jumped onto Luo'er's shoulder again, and pointed a direction as before, and Su Chen and Luo'er walked in that direction.
Not long after, they really found a blood-red dragon blood ginseng, which is a natural treasure for warriors to strengthen their bodies. It is a priceless treasure for warriors who practice physical cultivation.
Su Chen was also very happy to have collected the dragon blood ginseng, and said to the little gecko: "It seems that you are quite familiar with this area."
In fact, Su Chen was also wondering why the little gecko knew where the natural treasures in this area were. Did it come here before? Or did it evolve the ability to sniff treasures?
At the request of Su Chen and Luo'er, the little gecko once again pointed the direction, but this time, it guided the two to the top of the mountain.
Su Chen and Luo'er went up all the way, and when they passed halfway up the mountain, Su Chen suddenly frowned.
An obvious pressure came, and it was a double pressure of the body and the mind. Luo'er on the side was even more unbearable, with cold sweat all over her body and shivering constantly.
"Luo'er, don't go."
Su Chen said that the little maidservant could not bear such pressure at all.
Luo'er stopped as he said. She really could not go forward. She could only walk here because of the belief that she had to follow the young master, which supported her to come here.
"You wait here, I will take it up."
Su Chen grabbed the little gecko from Luo'er's shoulder, put it on his shoulder, and then continued to walk to the top of the mountain.
The higher he went, the more obvious the double pressure of body and mind became. Su Chen could still resolve the pressure of the mind, but the pressure of the body was real.
"Crack, crack, crack!"
Su Chen's joints all over his body made explosions, and cold sweat flowed on his forehead.
"This should not be a formation, but the breath left by the former strong man, so there is no way to crack it."
Su Chen said secretly that such pressure can only be carried hard. If you can bear it, you can bear it. If you can't bear it, you can only give up.
However, the little gecko was completely fine. It lay on Su Chen's shoulder with half-closed eyes and dozed off, as if this kind of pressure did not exist for it.
He didn't know how long he had been walking. Just when Su Chen's vision began to blur due to the high intensity pressure, he seemed to see a row of steps appearing not far away.
