Chapter 188 It's rare to find a young man as outstanding as you

The next day, a group of eight people set out to do another mission, to find the luminous grass.

As the name suggests, Noctilucent Grass can glow at night. Only the Noctilucent Grass picked when it glows at night can have the best effect in making elixirs, but Noctilucent Grass is extremely difficult to find.

It is said that the Noctilucent Grass grows in snake caves. Night, snake caves, and the inner area of the Fuming Mountains all represent danger.

However, if it is not dangerous, the reward for the mission will not be generous, so there is no need to do it. This time, they must get the luminous grass.

Mu Qi glanced at the space and found that there was no Noctilucent Grass. This was really a big failure. This time she had to work hard to get a few plants for herself.

She sent a telepathic message to the dog and the little dragon who had been playing outside since she entered the mountains, "Hey, hey, hey, if you hear me, please reply. Are you two safe now?"

Mu Baibai immediately replied, "Master, it's safe. I have a keen sense of smell and I avoided any monsters that came near me."

Mu Jinjin said, "Master, Brother Baibai is very good and can always find delicious food."

"Very good. If you have any delicious food, remember to save some for me, your master. Also, don't eat all the spiritual plants. We will bring them back and plant them in the space. When they multiply, we can eat them later. Then you will have an endless supply of spiritual plants to eat."

Mu Baibai: "...I understand, Master."

Mu Qi was very satisfied with Mu Baibai's cleverness. She asked, "Baibai, since you have such a sensitive nose, can you help me smell which direction the snake cave is in?"

Mu Baibai sighed, "Master, I will go back and show you the way."

“So good!”

Because they were just searching during the day and had no other actions, they decided to disperse, in groups of two, and then gather at the original place in the evening.

As a new teammate, Mu Qi was assigned to work with captain Nan Que.

Mu Qi found an excuse to leave for a while, then brought back the dog that had transformed into a little tiger, with the little dragon wrapped around his wrist and hidden by his sleeves.

She explained to Nanque: "I let my pet smell where the snake smell is stronger so that I can walk less."

Nan Que glanced at the little tiger in her arms and raised her eyebrows, "Can a tiger cub smell it?"

"Let's try it."

Nan Que said no more and left Muqi holding the little beast to lead the way.

Mu Baibai rubbed Mu Qi's hand and whispered to her for directions.

Soon, the two came to the entrance of a cave.

Mu Baibai shouted: "Master, I want to enter the space, these snakes are so disgusting."

Mu Jinjin always agreed with Mu Baibai: "Master, I want one too. Snakes are so disgusting."

"Okay." Mu Qi just responded and the two little beasts teleported into the space by themselves. She shrugged helplessly.

She pointed at the cave entrance and said to Nanque, "My little beast smelled the stench of a snake in there..."

Before he could finish his words, several snakes came out of the cave. Mu Qi quickly pulled Nan Que away.

Nan Que looked at Mu Qi in surprise, "Your little tiger is really powerful."

"Fortunately, animals' sense of smell is always more sensitive than humans'." Mu Qi said.

"That's right." Nan Que nodded.

After confirming the location, the two of them moved away. Mu Qi asked, "What was your original plan? How could you get the luminous grass without alerting the snakes?"

Nan Que: "Liu Meng's pet is an iron-bone snake. You can let her pet try it."

Mu Qi paused, "Is there no other solution besides this method?"

Nan Que shook his head, "I can't think of any other solution for now."

Mu Qi nodded.

Considering that this snake cave might not have luminous grass, Mu Qi carried Mu Baibai out again. Baibai said that this was the only snake cave within a hundred miles. Mu Qi had to give up. After saying something to Nanque, the two returned to the cave and waited for people to gather.

Mu Baibai was free and took Xiaolong out to play again.

In the evening, several people came back and found that there was only one snake cave nearby as Mu Baibai said. Others who went in other directions did not find any other ones.

While there was still daylight, the group decided to let Liu Meng's Iron-Bone Snake go to the snake cave first to see if it would alert other snakes.

According to their understanding, with so many snakes, they shouldn't be able to tell one from the outside, right?

As a result, the fantasy was shattered. Liu Meng's snake was bitten as soon as it went in. Fortunately, it didn't go too deep. When it came out, there were not many snakes chasing it, probably because they were of the same species and showed mercy.

Liu Meng held her snake in her arms, feeling so distressed that she carefully applied medicine to the snake's wound.

A group of people gathered together and watched, unable to help but sigh.

Nan Que said, "Everyone, think about it carefully and see if there are any other solutions."

Zheng Xiao asked, "Is there any medicine that can stun the snakes in the snake cave?"

"Snakes are highly poisonous, and the properties of the sleeping pills are completely useless. The poison will also kill the luminous grass. It's a difficult situation." Zuo Liang shook his head to dispel Zheng Xiao's idea.

The others were also concerned about the Noctilucent Plant inside, so many of their methods were unavailable and they were all scratching their heads in a state of headache.

"Why not lure the snake out of its hole?" Mu Qi suggested.

Chongyu immediately snorted, "How can you attract so many snakes? You talk so nicely."

Mu Qi glanced at her and asked, "Do you know rat poison?"

"What?" Not to mention Chongyu, everyone else was also confused. What does this have to do with rat poison?

Mu Qi said, "Snakes are hard to lure out, but if there are delicious mice outside that they love to eat, will they not come out?"

"Powders that attract snakes can be a little complicated, but powders that attract rats are pretty easy to come by."

Everyone suddenly realized, "Beifeng! You are so smart!"

Mu Qi smiled and said, "I just provided an idea. I can't guarantee whether it can be implemented."

Nan Que smiled, "There are many rats in the entire mountain range. It shouldn't be difficult to attract a group of rats. I think this method is feasible."

"It sounds reliable, but, if we get too close to the snake cave, will rats come?" another female cultivator, Jiang Yuan, hesitated.

Mu Qi thought for a moment and said, "We can get away from being too close. We can stun some rats and line them up in a line extending from the entrance of the snake cave. Then we can let the snakes run along the rat meat."

"Good! This is good! Brother Beifeng, you are so smart!" Zheng Xiao was the first to praise.

Mu Qi bowed hypocritically, "No, no, I just provided a theory. Whether it is feasible depends on everyone's joint action."

Nan Que glanced at Mu Qi and said with a smile, "If it works, you will be credited as the first one, and I will give you more spirit crystals when the time comes."

Mu Qi said happily, "Then don't blame me for being greedy."

“Hahaha…” Everyone was amused by her little appearance, even Chongyu, who hated her, couldn’t help but curl his eyes.

After some discussion, the few people assigned the tasks.

I was thinking that it would take some time to go back to the city to buy rat poison, so I might have to wait until tomorrow night.

Then Mu Qi said, "There are often rats in my hometown. I know how to make rat poison. Let's go and look for these spiritual plants, stone bud grass, rainbow feather root..."

Everyone felt like they had found a treasure, and they cooperated very well and quickly went out separately.

Nan Que smiled and patted Mu Qi on the shoulder before leaving. "Yes, it's rare to find such an outstanding young man like you. This makes me think of..."

After a pause, he stopped talking, smiled, and turned away.
