Led by Special Service Group 3, Sumu and his six companions flew deep into the snow-capped mountains and landed in a valley.
Inside and outside the valley are simply two different worlds.
It was pitch black outside, with nothing but the biting cold wind and thick white snow.
The inside of the valley was as bright as day and as warm as spring, without any chill at all. It felt as if one had suddenly walked from an icy day into a heated room, and the heat instantly caused a layer of fine sweat to form.
In addition, everyone also found that after entering the valley, the fatigue from flying all the way in the wind and snow was actually reduced a lot.
"Brother Luo, is there a talisman formation in the valley?" Su Mu asked.
He also discovered that as soon as the wind and snow outside approached the valley, they would be blocked and bounced back by an invisible force.
Luo Yu, who was walking in front and leading the way, turned around and said, "Of course there is a talisman formation. This is the rear base, the second line of defense of the Snow Mountain Fierce Land! The talisman formation here not only has the effect of resisting foreign enemies, but also can improve the harsh environment, providing a relatively comfortable rest and recuperation environment for the brothers who are out of the ferocious land to perform missions or to be replaced."
At this time, Kevin and his friends made a new discovery: "Look over there, there are people setting up stalls to do business. Brother Luo, are stalls still allowed here?"
Before they came, they all thought that the Snow Mountain Base should be strictly disciplined and fully managed in a military manner. But after arriving, they found that it was not the case at all.
After hearing their questions, everyone in Special Service Group 3 laughed.
Luo Yu explained: "This is the rear base. When there is no war, it is relatively relaxed. After all, people can't be so tense all the time, otherwise there will be problems. As for setting up stalls to do business, it is strictly prohibited in the front-line base, but it is allowed in the rear base, so many people will come here to sell their harvests in the dangerous land of the snowy mountains."
"So that's how it is." Sumu and the other six understood, and when they passed by the stall, they looked at it curiously.
It is called a stall, but in fact it is just a mat on the ground with the things to be sold placed on it. It is very simple.
Merchants either sit aside or simply sit on mats.
I don’t know if it was because it was night, but they didn’t shout. Instead, they released their spiritual energy, which transformed into large characters above the stalls. Some of them wrote down what they were selling, such as snow wolf skin, wind and snow ginseng, etc.
Some even simply marked it with a sentence: "The boss ran off with his sister-in-law, don't miss it if you pass by!"
I don’t know what the boss running away with his sister-in-law has to do with not missing it, but this stall is very popular. Whether you want to buy something or not, you like to go and take a look.
Su Mu also discovered that not only were there various elixirs for sale here, but there were also several stalls selling tiger-skin peppers.
Wuling pepper is a spiritual plant of the genus Capsicum, which contains very strong fire spiritual energy.
Su Mu also prepared a lot of spiritual dishes such as tiger skin five-spirit pepper, because it can enhance the properties of resistance to cold and frost, and it is a must-eat spiritual dish when entering the dangerous area of snowy mountains.
The boss who sells tiger skin peppers was playing a game on his phone. He saw someone coming over from the corner of his eye. He was busy trying to grab his teammates’ troops while saying, “Want to buy tiger skin peppers? I’m not bragging, but the tiger skin peppers I have are the best quality in the entire rear base. They are basically above 80! You won’t find any better ones in the entire rear base!”
Just 80? Su Mu had an idea in his mind.
"Thank you, I'm just looking at it, I don't plan to buy it."
Seeing that he was not buying, the boss lost interest in selling and continued to control his jungler to steal his teammates' troops, completely ignoring his teammates' protests.
Luo Yu asked the team members to go back and hand in their tasks first. He personally sent the six people from Sumu to the accommodation area of the base. He found a lieutenant officer, gave him a few instructions, and then said to the six people from Sumu: "Lao Sun will help you arrange accommodation. You can rest tonight and report to the Operations Department tomorrow to receive your tasks. If you want to go around, that's fine, but remember, don't cause trouble, otherwise no one can protect you."
"I understand. Thank you, Brother Luo." Su Mu, Gu Ranxi and others expressed their gratitude.
"No need to thank me. I have to go back to hand in a mission. I'm leaving first." Luo Yu waved his hand and turned to leave.
On the way here, they had already made detailed inquiries about the process of eliminating the Nine-tailed Snake. Now, he was going to report the matter to his superiors.
The Nine-tailed Snake is a level four or five evil monster. If Sumu and his six companions can kill it, they will definitely get a huge reward.
After seeing Luo Yu off, Lieutenant Sun asked Su Mu and the other six to follow him. As they walked, he introduced: "In recent days, because the number of reinforcements sent by various cultivation universities is a bit large, the original barracks are simply not enough, so we can only inconvenience you to live in tents."
Lin Junjie smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. This valley is very comfortable. Not only can we live in a tent, we can even sleep on the ground. We can also watch the wind and snow whistling outside the talisman formation. It's very poetic."
Kevin looked up at the sky, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.
What does this have to do with poetry and painting?
Compared to the poetic and picturesque things, he was more concerned about something else: "Lieutenant Sun, is that tent... for men and women to live together?"
Lin Junjie's eyes lit up and his ears stood up.
Su Mu didn't say anything, but just rolled his eyes at the two of them: What are you thinking about?
Lieutenant Sun seemed to have been asked this question many times and was no longer surprised. He did not even change his tone when he answered, "Men and women live separately."
Kevin and Lin Junjie couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Gu Ranxi pinched her fingers until they made a "crackling" sound, grinning and saying, "Stop daydreaming, you two. Even if we live in the same tent, you still want to take advantage of us? Aren't you afraid of having your arms broken or your legs twisted off?"
"That's right!" Xun Ling agreed, and the flying sword flew out, forming a sword shadow in front of her. "To tell you the truth, although I have only studied beast taming for a short time, I have helped the teacher castrate many beasts, but I have never castrated a human. This sword of mine has been thirsty for a long time, who of you wants to try it?"
What the hell?!
Lin Junjie and Kevin squeezed their legs subconsciously.
Why are all my female teammates so scary? They always want to cut off people's limbs and make them childless... Don't mess with me!
They couldn't help but think: Is it possible that living separately for men and women is to protect our safety? Boys must protect themselves when they go out!
There is a main avenue in the middle of the accommodation area, with male and female tent camps on both sides. It is just like the separate male and female dormitory buildings in ordinary universities, except that there are no dormitory managers here.
Even so, few boys dared to enter and leave the girls' tent camp at will.
After all, those who live here are not ordinary girls, but female cultivators. Once they take out their treasures, they may be much more powerful than the boys and can knock the boys to the ground in seconds.
For example, if Lin Junjie faced Gu Ranxi, he would definitely be beaten badly.
How can a support fight against a meat tank and deal damage?
The boys dared not to enter and leave the girls' tent camp at will, but the girls could enter and leave the boys' tent camp freely. Not only did no one object, but they were also very welcome...
"Boys go to tent 307 on the left, and girls go to tent 401 on the right," Lieutenant Sun arranged.
Everyone thanked him, and Su Mu entrusted Xiao Ye to Gu Ranxi and Xun Ling. He believed that with two sisters taking care of her, plus the vegetable cat and two rune figurines, no one could bully her.
After finishing, Su Mucai, Lin Junjie and Kevin walked into the boys' tent camp and quickly found tent No. 307.
As soon as I opened the tent door, I saw several bald heads.
The other party also saw them and called out, "Are you also living in this tent? Come in, which school are you from?"
Su Mu and the other two introduced themselves: "We are from Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University." Then they asked: "Which school are you from?"
"Oh, we are from Emeishan Xiuzhen University." Several bald heads answered.
"Emei Mountain Cultivation University? Isn't this a coincidence?"
Sumu was happy. The senior brothers from Mount Emei were really nice and quick to buy things. He hoped that they could also maintain the fine traditions of Mount Emei Cultivation University.
"I know quite a few brothers from Mount Emei, such as Brother Nalanchu, with whom I have a pretty good relationship. Is he coming this time?"
"Do you know Senior Brother Nalan Chu? He didn't come this time." Upon hearing this, several people from Emei Mountain Cultivation University immediately became much more enthusiastic.
After chatting for a while and making the bed, Su Mu found the people from Mount Emei Cultivation University again and asked curiously, "Are you practicing Buddhism?"
Their captain, a bald man named Guo Qiu, raised his hand and pointed at two teammates next to him: "Not all of them, only these two are Buddhists."
The two people he pointed at put their hands together and saluted Su Mu.
Su Mu hurriedly returned the greeting, then asked in confusion: "Then...didn't you use Peiyuan Lingjiu on your hair?"
Guo Qiu sighed and said with a bitter face: "We would like to use it, but we didn't get it, right?"
Su Mu lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, fellow brothers. I heard from a friend that it won't be long before the Pei Yuan Ling wine will be available!"
Guo Qiu perked up: "Is this true? Is your friend reliable?"
Su Mu said: "Absolutely reliable! He has someone in the krypton shop!"
"That's great!" Guo Qiu was overjoyed, and several other people from Emei Mountain Cultivation University were also smiling.
Su Mu then asked, "Oh, by the way, Senior Brother Guo, did you eat Tiger Skin Five Spirit Peppers this time?"
Guo Qiu shook his head: "Not yet. We plan to buy some more tomorrow when we receive the mission. I saw that the tiger skin five-spirit peppers sold here are all of 80 to 85 quality, which is very good."
Su Mu laughed and said, "Don't wait until tomorrow. I have some with a quality of 90 or above. Not only is it more resistant to cold and frost, it also has a chance to give the attack a fire attribute. Do you want some?"
"Is it true? 90 quality? It can also enchant attacks?" Guo Qiu couldn't believe it.
Su Mu patted his chest and said, "It's absolutely genuine. If you don't see the effect after taking it, I'll pay you ten times the compensation!"
Before Guo Qiu could speak again, his teammates looked at him expectantly.
"Captain, I want to eat tiger skin peppers!"
"I want to eat, too."
Guo Qiu was also very tempted. It was of 90 quality and had enchantments. If they ate it, they would not only suffer less in the dangerous place of the snowy mountains, but also increase the success rate of the mission. He immediately made up his mind and slapped his thigh and said, "Eat! Eat the large portion. Are two portions enough?"
"That's enough, thank you captain, the captain is so nice!" The team members were all smiling.
