Chapter 389 Harvest
When A-bao shouted, Fang Yuxin also found the monster in A-bao's eyes. In fact, it was not a monster, but a mutant venomous snake. Fang Yuxin didn't see it when he searched with his spiritual sense before. It was not until it suddenly appeared that Fang Yuxin found that there was a long and narrow passage underneath. This passage was very irregular, and it seemed that the mutant venomous snake should have drilled out by itself.
It didn't know where it had gone before, but now it came back along the narrow corridor and happened to bump into the conversation between A-Bao and the mutant wild ginseng. However, A-Bao's fear was actually unnecessary. In order to trap the mutant wild ginseng, Fang Yuxin had set up a spherical barrier that completely covered the mutant wild ginseng.
The mutant snake appeared later, so it was actually isolated outside the barrier. It was only because the barrier was colorless and transparent, and the mutant snake was quite close and had a larger body after mutation, that Po felt a strong sense of fear that the other party was so close.
After it screamed, it used its mind to contact Fang Yuxin: "Ahhh! There's a snake! There's a snake! Save me! No, save us!" Even when in danger, Po never thought of abandoning the same kind he had finally met and running away.
Fang Yuxin found that the mutant wild ginseng seemed to be quite scared, and its leaves and red seeds were shaking constantly. So she thought about it and sent out a spiritual light to cover the mutant wild ginseng and A Bao, and put them into the Qingmu Spiritual Palace.
The mutant wild ginseng was not expecting this sudden change and was so frightened that it started to struggle madly. A-Bao had been clinging to it and saw this and quickly said, "Don't be nervous, the master is taking you to a good place!"
Perhaps with A Bao's comfort, the mutant wild ginseng finally stopped struggling and was successfully collected by Fang Yuxin into the space. Fang Yuxin directly put them into the medicinal field. The mutant wild ginseng was a little dumbfounded when it entered the medicinal field - where on earth is this?
It was Po who showed his seniority and helped the mutant wild ginseng find a secluded spot in the medicinal field. He then said to it, "Quick! This is it! Put down roots and bury yourself."
The mutant wild ginseng did not refuse. Although its intelligence was not high, it could tell which place was more suitable for plant growth. This could be said to be the instinct of plants. This medicinal field was much better than the place where it had grown before, and it could certainly see it. So as soon as A-Bao opened his mouth, it unceremoniously dug its roots deep into it. At the same time, outside the Qingmu Spiritual Mansion, as A-Bao and the mutant wild ginseng suddenly disappeared, the mutant venomous snake that discovered them was instantly enraged!
It sensed the direction in which Po and the others disappeared, and its body instantly stretched straight, shooting out from the ground like an arrow, attacking Fang Yuxin!
However, before it could get close to Fang Yuxin, a black sword light flashed. As the sword light flashed, a black light instantly appeared on the snake's body. The black light flashed and blocked Bai Ye's sword light. However, the mutant venomous snake was also seriously injured, with a sword wound deep enough to see the bone.
Then, it shrank into the bushes and disappeared in the blink of an eye, hiding in the low grass. It hid very well, and even a superpower user of the same level as it would not be able to find it. Unfortunately, it encountered Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye, a pair of evil spirits.
The two of them only used their spiritual sense to quickly determine its location!
Before Fang Yuxin could speak, Bai Ye had already thrust out the dragon scale sword in his hand! However, the cunning mutant snake dodged again! Then, it suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a large cloud of black mist from its mouth. The color of the mist was very strange, and it was accompanied by a strong fishy smell.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye watched the fog spreading towards them, and hurriedly retreated with Angela and Bai Er. At the same time, Bai Ye's eyes turned cold, and he flew into the air, slashing fiercely with the dragon scale sword in his hand!
This sword was quite powerful, and the dragon-scale sword in Bai Ye's hand even made a dragon roar. As the dragon roared, the mutant venomous snake suddenly stiffened. It was originally very fast, and it was able to avoid Bai Ye's sword light before because of its speed. However, this time, as it stiffened, it could no longer avoid Bai Ye's sword.
Bai Ye's sword strike was ruthless to begin with, and he didn't expect that he would actually chop the mutant snake into pieces. The snake's head, as big as an adult man's fist, fell to the ground, its mouth still wide open, but unfortunately it could no longer spray out poisonous mist.
As for the remaining poisonous fog, the two were not worried. Fang Yuxin used a cleaning technique, and a breeze blew away the scattered poisonous fog. Fang Yuxin thought about it, found a jade box to collect the snake body and snake head, and planned to find someone to study it after returning to the base.
Then, she and Fang Yuyang continued to look for their own prey in the forest. In addition to mutant plants, there were many mutant beasts and birds in the forest, and even zombies occasionally appeared. However, the forest was very large and the terrain was quite complex. Although the two occasionally encountered zombies and mutant beasts, they were not to be feared, and the two easily dealt with each other. Fang Yuxin kept all the corpses of the mutant beasts, and as for the corpses of the zombies, they were left to Lan Ruo and Hong Fen.
The two of them had no danger along the way and had a great harvest. Not only did they harvest a lot of mutant plants, including various mutant medicinal plants, but they also harvested a lot of mutant beast corpses. If they took them back to the research institute, they might be able to research out something useful.
The two of them went deeper and deeper. The deeper they went, the more they could find some strange mutant plants or precious mutant medicinal plants. Fang Yuxin had a good harvest along the way. Time passed very quickly and it was evening in the blink of an eye.
Bai Ye looked at the sky and found that it was getting late, so he patted Fang Yuxin's shoulder and reminded her: "Xinxin, it's getting late, it's time for us to go back."
Fang Yuxin saw that it was indeed the case, but just as she was about to leave with Bai Ye, she discovered a forest of mutant pine trees. These pine trees had grown abnormally tall due to the mutation, reaching hundreds of meters. The branches were straight, thick and hard, and there were many pine cones between the needle-shaped leaves, which made Fang Yuxin very envious.
She hesitated for a moment, picked up a stone and threw it at a mutant pine tree. As soon as the stone was thrown into the air, the needle-like leaves instantly shot out and turned into long hard thorns, which pierced the stone and turned it into a hedgehog.
Fang Yuxin was even more envious when he saw this. The attack power of these mutant pine trees seemed quite good. If they could plant a circle outside the base, they wouldn't have to worry about zombies or mutant creatures coming!
The more Fang Yuxin thought about it, the more she felt that this was a good idea. The only problem was how to convince these mutant pine trees. She thought about it and simply tried to send out a thought, trying to communicate with these mutant pine trees. Fortunately, she was a pure wood spirit, and with the help of her thoughts and the enchantment of the wood essence, she finally negotiated terms with these mutant pine trees.
The mutant pine trees also have some intelligence, but not very high. Their requirements are also quite simple, that is, they need wood energy and zombie corpses as nutrients. In return, they are willing to obey Fang Yuxin's orders and protect the base.
Once the conditions were agreed upon, these huge mutant pine trees were all transformed into miniature shapes and collected by Fang Yuxin. After she collected these mutant pine trees, she did not stay any longer and followed Bai Ye out of the forest. They ran all the way out, and Fang Yuxin even used her spiritual sense to avoid trouble on the way, so it didn't take much time at all.
Even so, when they returned to the base, it was already around seven in the evening. When they returned, Fang Yuxin did not deliberately shrink Angela, and still rode it back to the base. Bai Ye also rode on Bai Er, attracting countless people's attention along the way.
Everyone looked at how majestic they were riding on the mutant beasts, and couldn't help but start to think about owning a mutant beast themselves.
When the two returned home, dinner was already ready and everyone was waiting for them, which made them feel bad. Because the two families were close, although they lived next door to each other, they usually ate together to get closer.
When Fang Yuxin entered the dining room, she subconsciously glanced at Fang Yuyang first. Seeing that he looked normal and didn't look like he was injured, she felt relieved - as expected, she knew that with Fang Yuyang's strength, he would be fine.
But even though she knew it, she still asked, "Brother, is the mission going well? Is there any problem?"
Fang Yuyang nodded: "Don't worry, the mission went smoothly and nothing happened. But Xinxin, where did you go today? Why didn't you stay in the base?"
There were no outsiders here, so Fang Yuxin didn't hide it and said, "Oh, I saw that I had some free time, so I went to the nearby woods with Bai Ye and found a lot of good things. I'll show them to you after dinner."
When the others saw her smiling and looking very happy, they knew that they must have made a good harvest this time, and their mood also improved. Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang had been busy with the base's affairs all day these days, and now they were able to relax for a rare time.
Bai Zhengli even joked with Fang Yuxin: "Oh? Really? Then I'll have to take a good look at it later."
As they were talking, Shui Rou and Qu Qianhe brought out the dishes from the kitchen. Fang Yuxin saw this and hurried to help. Soon, all the dishes were on the table. With Fang Yuxin there, they had plenty of food and fuel, so they didn't deliberately wrong themselves and had a very hearty meal.
Fang Yuxin was eating and suddenly remembered the small river she encountered in the forest. She began to think about it and decided to take some fish, shrimps and crabs out and say that they were caught in the river. Thinking of this, she turned her head and looked at Bai Ye, thinking that he would not dare to betray her!
Bai Ye was eating with big mouthfuls, but Fang Yuxin suddenly glared at him. He was a little confused and a little nervous - why was Xinxin staring at him?
