Chapter 206 Flying Beasts
Upon seeing this message, Lou Xiaoyu first became serious, then smiled and tapped Gu Qing's head with her finger.
"You still dare to run forward like this? Every treasure has a guardian. But it's alright, this can only be considered a lack of experience, not stupidity."
Gu Qing knew that the second half of his sentence meant that Gu Qing hadn't casually mentioned it.
Lou Xiaoyu didn't wait for her to finish her sentence before pointing to a few people who followed her. Among them were Qi Bai and Ma Ming.
Putting everything else aside, Bo Chuan's choice to bring two people along made sense. One was skilled in jungle warfare and movement, while the other served as a human shield.
This perfectly complements the shortcomings of the people he brought.
As soon as he left the group, Bamboo Slip strode over. When he first saw this, he thought Gu Qing was going to the toilet, but then he saw that several people had released their spiritual bodies.
He quickly looked at Lou Xiaoyu with a questioning gaze.
Lou Xiaoyu simply shook her head slightly, and Zhu Jian didn't ask any questions. Instead, she beckoned Liu Lin over and said, "I'm going over there. You keep an eye on the team."
Without saying a word, he quickly jogged to follow Gu Qing and the others. As Gang Yi approached the bamboo forest, everyone tensed up.
The further you go in, the larger the bright spot becomes. From a distance, you can see that the light is actually a particularly thick bamboo stalk.
There were many other bamboo stalks around this one, some with a dull, light sheen. She pinched the bridge of her nose, then closed her eyes and opened them again.
Confirming she wasn't mistaken, Gu Qing held up something resembling a laser pointer and shone it on the bamboo. "This is it."
Upon hearing Gu Qing's words, everyone carefully observed the bamboo. It was about a foot in diameter and looked no different from the other bamboo in the grove.
On the contrary, the bamboo is a darker color, which is a sign of severe pollution.
This left everyone wondering why Gu Qing would choose such a heavily polluted bamboo. However, the others didn't care; they were just following orders.
Lou Xiaoyu didn't hesitate at all. She pushed Gu Qing back and said to Qi Bai, "Protect her."
Qi Bai nodded solemnly, and the rat snake appeared, coiling around Gu Qing. Its huge head and body stood upright behind Gu Qing.
Always on guard to prevent any danger from approaching, Gu Qing couldn't help but reach out and touch its cold body.
Lou Xiaoyu flipped her hand and a blue whip appeared in her hand. Then she winked at Lou Qing and Lou Zi, and the two of them also took out their weapons.
Then the three of them formed a triangle and slowly approached the bamboo. Just when they were about a meter away from the bamboo, a series of birdsongs suddenly rang out from the bamboo forest.
"Ma Ming informed the bamboo slips."
"I'm here, what's going on?" The question had barely left his lips.
Before Lou Xiaoyu could answer, a bird with a brown body, black edges on its head, and grayish-white tail feathers flew towards them.
Lou Xiaoyu flicked his wrist, and the whip seemed to extend infinitely, striking the flying bird directly. The mutated bird was instantly whipped into a bloody mist.
The whip returned but instead carried back a crystal core. He put the crystal core back into his spatial storage and said directly, "This is the territory of the bamboo birds, and the leader of this flock should be of a very high level."
"Can we not disturb them?" Bamboo slip didn't want to cause trouble and just wanted to reach the destination as soon as possible, since collecting things by the sea also required a certain amount of time.
"No, Qingqing wants that bamboo." Lou Xiaoyu's tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jian frowned even more deeply.
"There should be a purifying exotic plant or beast inside that bamboo stalk, and there should also be something in the bamboo stalks next to it, at the very least, a pure exotic plant or beast."
There's no need to keep it a secret, because once a battle starts, the people on the other side will be drawn over, since they're too close.
Therefore, there's no need to remain silent and allow the two people to misunderstand each other.
Bamboo Slip suddenly turned to look at Gu Qing, who raised one hand as if to swear, "I have a sense for these things. I've tried it before, and although I wasn't 100% sure, there's an 80% chance this time."
At this point, the birdsong became more urgent and noisy.
Zhu Jian glanced at her, raised his wrist and said, "Liao Wenfen, send a small team over here. Don't let your guard down over there."
Liao Wen's team was perfect for dealing with the flying beast, but since the team was always on the road and on reconnaissance missions during rest periods, he couldn't help but give them some instructions.
"Okay, the captain will be right there."
