"What's wrong?" Although confused, Fourteen still walked back obediently.
Twelve slapped him in anger. "What's wrong? Have you forgotten what Miss Xue said before? A treasure like the Red Scaled Ganoderma must be guarded by a strange beast. What if you rashly walk over there and get attacked by a strange beast?"
Fourteen covered his head and muttered, "This cave is clear at a glance. There's nothing but magma. Where can there be any strange beasts? There's no way that strange beast is lurking under the magma, right?"
Xue Huan asked calmly, "Why not?"
Fourteen was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and opened his mouth wide: "You mean, there are strange beasts hiding under the magma?"
The others also had slightly changed expressions and looked horrified.
How strong must the defense of a strange beast that can live in magma be?
Xue Huan shook her head: "I'm not sure either, but it's better to be cautious."
Her spiritual sense is now greatly weakened, and she cannot explore deep into the magma, so she is not clear about the situation below. However, according to common sense, there cannot be no strange beasts guarding such a rare treasure as the Red Scale Ganoderma.
"But it's not difficult to confirm. Just throw something into the magma and test it."
Yuan Xi looked at Eighteen. After receiving the instructions, Eighteen took out a fire rat he had collected before from the storage bag and threw it towards the lava.
Just as the Fire Rat was thrown above the lava, a huge monster covered with crimson armor jumped out of the lava, opened its big mouth and bit the Fire Rat.
The huge creature looked very similar to a crocodile, but it was definitely not an ordinary crocodile. It was much larger and more ferocious. The part exposed from the magma alone was five or six meters long. When it rushed out, the magma slid down its shell and could not hurt it at all.
Magma is like water to it.
Its eyeballs were also red, as big as fists, and the look it gave me was cold and cruel, making people feel terrified.
Several people couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He only showed up once, for a short time, probably less than half a second, and even this brief appearance caused a huge shock to the people present.
Of course, Xue Huan doesn't count. In her previous life, she had seen monsters that were even bigger and more ferocious than this one. The largest one was even as big as a mountain or an island, and could shake the heavens and the earth, and turn the rivers and the seas upside down. That was a true behemoth.
The red dragon crocodile just now - let's call it that for now, is just a small insect in front of those monsters.
However, she was no longer the powerful person in the Spirit Transformation Stage who had stirred up blood and gore in the entire world of cultivation in her previous life. She couldn't even deal with such a "little bug".
If she were bitten by the red dragon crocodile, she would probably be bitten in two on the spot and swallowed by it as a snack.
The appearance of the Red Dragon Crocodile verified Xue Huan's words.
Fourteen couldn't help but feel a little scared. If he hadn't listened to Miss Xue and retreated in time, he would have been killed by the red dragon crocodile by now.
After this incident, he became more determined that "what Miss Xue said is right". If he did not listen to Miss Xue, the consequences would be dire.
There is a red dragon crocodile lurking in the magma. How can they get past it and pick the red scale ganoderma?
They had just seen that the Red Dragon Crocodile was extremely fast and had a strong jumping ability. It could jump out of the magma in an instant and bite the objects above it.
The height above the magma pool is limited, only more than three meters. With such a short distance, the Red Dragon Crocodile can probably reach it with a light leap.
Even if they could use their lightness skills to fly over, they could not escape the red dragon crocodile below.
In fact, it is not difficult to get there. Just like before, throw a bait over first. When the red dragon crocodile jumps out and bites the bait, seize the time and quickly cross the lava pool, reach the stone on the opposite side, and pick up the red scale ganoderma.
But after taking it off, when I come back, I definitely can't use the same method to deal with the Red Dragon Crocodile. After all, it has a brain and will definitely not be fooled three times in the same place.
It would be best to disable the Red Dragon Crocodile at once, so that they can safely pick the Red Scale Ganoderma.
Xue Huan thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea, but before that, let's take a good rest, get enough energy, eat something, and then deal with that big guy."
After walking all the way, they had consumed a lot of energy and were already hungry.
When they heard her words, several people expressed their agreement.
The temperature in this cave was too high. They were sweating profusely after standing for a while. Their bodies were soaked in sweat, and the water in their bodies evaporated rapidly. They were very thirsty. If they stayed any longer, they would probably become dehydrated.
So they left the cave and set up camp a little further away to rest and settle down.
I collected a lot of fire rat meat before, and now it's a good time to take it out and try it.
Xue Huan asked Shi Ba for two, along with some other ingredients, and marinated them. She sliced the meat into thin slices and roasted them directly on a flattened volcanic rock.
We are deep inside the volcano here. The temperature of the rocks themselves is very high and there is no need to heat them. The meat slices will sizzle when you put them on and will be cooked in no time.
Xue Huan rolled up the meat slices with the tender leaves of wild vegetables she picked on the road, dipped them in sauce and stuffed them into her mouth. Hmm, it tasted amazing.
The meat was well marinated and tender, and paired with fresh and tender vegetable leaves, it was not greasy at all. She could eat several slices in one go.
Gulp!
Fourteen swallowed hard.
Seeing how Xue Huan ate, he felt greedy. The others couldn't help but glance at Xue Huan.
But even the prince didn't get to eat, and they dared to speak.
Eighteen was also grilling meat, but he just used an iron skewer to skewer a whole fire rat and roasted it over the fire. Not only was the process slow, but the color was also incomparable to the barbecue made by Xue Huan.
Xue Huan is naturally not the kind of person who eats alone. Besides, these fire rats were hunted by everyone together. There is no reason for her to eat here and let others drool.
Isn't this conducive to team unity and harmony?
So after eating two slices, she rolled up a piece of meat and handed it to Yuan Xi: "Try it."
Yuan Xi's originally resentful expression suddenly brightened. He didn't take it, but leaned closer to Xue Huan and took the piece of barbecue from her hand.
He looked at her while chewing the meat in his mouth and praised, "It's delicious."
At the end, he added: "It's the best barbecue I've ever eaten."
Xue Huan raised an eyebrow. "How bad was your food before? The conditions here are very simple, and I haven't shown my true skills yet. When I'm fully prepared, I'll make barbecue for you again. Then you'll know that what I'm doing now is nothing."
Eighteen, who was diligently grilling meat: "..."
Feeling hurt.
"You guys come and try it too." Xue Huan called the eleven or so people.
It was impossible to feed them enough. After all, she only made two, and there were more than eleven people who were warriors and had a great demand for food, so she could only let them have a taste.
