The next afternoon, several secret guards sent out said that Shen Junze had gone to the back mountain to collect herbs.
After hearing this, Wanwan packed her bags and hurried to the back mountain with her second brother Xiao Moqing.
The vegetation on the back mountain was dense, and Wanwan was carried up a tree by her second brother. The two of them hid in the tree like thieves.
Because of the obstruction of view caused by the green leaves in the dense forest, even if the people under the tree raised their heads, they might not be able to see the two of them.
Xiao Moqing and the little milk ball were squatting on the tree, watching over. They were looking around for the male protagonist Shen Junze when they heard the little milk ball beside them suddenly mutter:
【Here they come, someone is coming】
Hearing this, Xiao Moqing instantly perked up. He looked in the direction the little kid was looking and saw Shen Junze walking towards him not far away.
Shen Junze was seen wearing a green robe, carrying a basket on his back, dressed as if he was collecting herbs.
Wanwan, who was squatting stealthily on a branch with her second brother, looked at Shen Junze below and couldn't help but complain in her heart:
[The male protagonist is worthy of being the male protagonist. He looks good even with a sack on his body.]
Hearing this, Xiao Moqing couldn't help but sneer as he looked at Shen Junze, who was squatting down and concentrating on digging herbs with a shovel in his hand.
His sister was right. Shen Junze was worthy of being the male lead. He did have a good appearance.
With a face that can be described as a disaster, it's no wonder that so many women fall in love with him.
Shen Junze didn't know martial arts, so naturally he didn't know that he was being watched at the moment.
And the person who was monitoring him was exactly Xiao Moqing, whom he wanted to use in the future.
"hiss--"
Shen Junze was digging herbs when he suddenly felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand.
He looked down and saw a cut on the back of his hand caused by branches and leaves.
Shen Junze looked at the conspicuous bloodstain on the back of his hand, frowned, and suddenly threw the spatula in his hand aside.
When Tianming saw this, he was about to say something when he heard the man ask him.
[Shen Junze: Can the Phoenix Inner Pill really help me grow spiritual roots?]
[Tian Ming: This is natural. With that inner elixir, not only can I reshape your body, Your Highness, but it will also be easy for me to cultivate and become an immortal in the future.]
[Shen Junze: Cultivating Taoism to Become an Immortal…]
If it were a year ago, he would hardly dare to even think about it, but now he can not only avenge the destruction of his country, but also practice Taoism and become an immortal.
Everyone wants to become stronger, and he is no exception.
Thinking of this, Shen Junze clenched his fists and his fighting spirit returned to his heart.
He picked up the medicine shovel beside him and continued to dig the herbs that Master Changyu asked him to dig.
Time flies and an hour has passed.
Shen Junze had been digging herbs for a long time, and he had been looking at the big and small creatures on the branch for too long.
Xiao Moqing's eyes were sore and red from staring so hard, and he couldn't help but yawn as he felt sleepy. He moved closer to the little kid beside him and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Sister, when will that monster show up to mess with him?"
They had been on this branch for so long that his legs were almost numb.
"Shen Junze is truly terrifying. He spent over an hour digging herbs and didn't even stop to catch his breath. He's truly terrifying."
Wan Wan whispered to the side, "Second brother, you don't understand this. After all, he has the Destiny System. With the system cheering him on, how could he possibly be tired?"
Xiao Moqing said, "This system is really overbearing. Was it because of that system that I couldn't kill that guy last time?"
Wanwan nodded her little head.
Yes, yes, yes.
While the two were talking, there was suddenly a noise in the woods not far away.
Noticing the movement, Wanwan's eyes immediately lit up, "Here it comes."
【The monster is coming! 】
Hearing this, Xiao Moqing immediately held his breath, and indeed he saw the branches and leaves swaying in the forest in the distance.
[Tian Ming: Your Highness, be careful, there is an evil spirit! ]
[Shen Junze: What? Demonic energy?]
After hearing Tianming's words, Shen Junze heard an extremely arrogant voice coming from not far away:
"Hahahahahahahahaha, I'm out, I'm finally out! It's been fifty years! I'm finally out! Hahahahahahaha."
Shen Junze listened to the arrogant laughter and had not yet reacted to what was happening when a sudden gust of wind blew towards him and knocked him to the ground.
The herbs that were dug out with great difficulty and placed in the bamboo basket were scattered all over the ground.
The strong wind not only harmed Shen Junze below, but also Wanwan, who was standing on the tree. She was so small that if her second brother hadn't reached out and grabbed her in time, she would have almost fallen off the tree.
[Oh my god, I was scared]
Following the sound, they saw a ball of black gas flying towards them from a distance.
[Tian Ming: Your Highness, please get out of the way! Such a strong demonic aura!]
As soon as Tianming finished speaking, Shen Junze, who was knocked to the ground by the gust of wind, had not yet gotten up when he saw the black gas flying towards him.
When the black gas passed through his body, Shen Junze only felt a sharp pain all over his body.
The severe pain was unbearable for him and he fell to the ground with a thud.
At this moment, the black gas that had originally passed through his body seemed to sense something, changed direction, and flashed in front of him in an instant.
It was at this moment that the people present saw clearly the appearance of the man in the black air.
The man had long hair and a pale complexion that contrasted with his blood-red eyes. He was shirtless and his chest was covered with snake scales that had not yet faded, looking somewhat scary.
[A snake demon named Xue Wu has appeared, and is here to give the hero some money.]
[He was originally sealed in the back mountain for many years because of his many evil deeds. Today he broke through the seal and met the male protagonist as soon as he came out.]
[Because it had been sealed for many years and had not eaten, it wanted to eat the male protagonist the first time it saw him. But the male protagonist is the male protagonist after all, how could it be eaten so easily?]
Xue Wu stood in front of Shen Junze, looking down at him, and said in a cold voice: "Human?"
As Xue Wu spoke, he stared at the pale-faced Shen Junze lying on the ground. When he saw his face, his Adam's apple rolled and the snake's tongue in his mouth slid across his lips and licked them lightly.
"I've been sealed for many years and haven't eaten for a long time."
Looking at the snake demon's excited red eyes, Tianming secretly cried out that something was wrong.
[Tian Ming: Your Highness, this snake demon wants to eat you.]
"Although I have never eaten a man before, I will make an exception today." As soon as the snake demon finished speaking, it opened its bloody mouth and attacked Shen Junze.
[Tianming: Your Highness! Run!]
The moment the snake demon attacked, Shen Junze grabbed a handful of dirt from the side and threw it at the snake demon.
