Chapter 22022 Mao Rongrong, I will protect you from now on.
It is impossible to be well-behaved.
The little spirit beast, having just woken up, was now squatting beside the fire, licking its fur gracefully, without even looking at Lu Qingqing.
"I finally found a sheltered place for you to heal your wounds, and you're so cold to me right after you woke up?"
Lu Qingqing added more wood to the fire and joked.
The Shura Secret Realm is quite humane in some ways. There is a stone house less than 500 meters away from the mountain pass. This is probably the last safe house.
There was still some dry firewood left inside, which looked quite old and covered with cobwebs and dust. It was probably left by the last person who came for the trial.
——This is enough to prove that there are very few people coming to the Shura Secret Realm, and even fewer who are randomly teleported to the ice field.
"I just applied some wound medicine on you, and the scar on your stomach has completely healed." Lu Qingqing didn't mind the other person's cold and arrogant attitude. She took out a cowhide water bottle, opened it, and moistened her throat. "You should be fine after a little rest. Don't worry, I really don't mean you any harm, otherwise why would I save you?"
Upon hearing this, the little spirit beast finally raised its head and looked at her. Its emerald eyes sparkled even more beautifully in the firelight.
Its injuries had obviously improved a lot, its beautiful fur was much smoother and softer than before, and its eyes were more lively, as if they could express a myriad of emotions.
"Before you fought the Level 4 monster, you also fought an even more powerful monster, right? That's when you got injured." Lu Qingqing held her chin up and looked at it, speaking softly, "Otherwise, with your skills, that monster would be no match for you."
Maorongrong showed a surprised expression, although it was only for a moment, she still caught it.
"The Shura Secret Realm is said to contain only magical beasts and spiritual herbs. You must have come from outside, just like me." Resisting the urge to rub the other person's head, Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "A spiritual beast that single-handedly found the entrance and successfully made it here must be quite capable."
There is a gleam in the furry eyes.
This is also the reason why Lu Qingqing did not feed the little thing the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill. She guessed that the little spirit beast must have a cultivation level above the Golden Core level, and feeding it this would be useless.
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Did you find what you wanted?"
The little spirit beast ignored her, stretched, yawned softly, and continued to lick its fur.
"So you can't speak?" Lu Qingqing was a little surprised. "I thought spirit beasts could communicate with humans."
Fluffy: ...
"It doesn't matter if you can't speak. You're still a very beautiful and powerful spirit beast."
Fluffy: ...
Lu Qingqing smiled, her eyes curved. "Just heal your wounds here for the next two days. No more monsters will attack you."
Mao Rongrong, who had originally ignored her, looked at her again after hearing her words, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Lu Qingqing read out its meaning and hummed softly, "I have to leave soon. I need more experience to advance my cultivation, and I promised someone to help him find spiritual herbs."
Thinking of the spiritual herbs that Uncle Gui needs, maybe I can really find them here - after all, the name contains the word "ice", so it makes sense for them to exist in the ice field, right?
This old man is really too amazing. How did he know that she would be teleported here?
While Lu Qingqing's thoughts were drifting into the sky, Mao Runrong was looking at her quietly, as if he wanted to stare a flower out of her face.
"Why are you acting like a little adult?" Lu Qingqing came back to her senses.
It's a cute little thing, but it can make a serious expression, which makes it even more adorable. I endured it again and again, but when I couldn't help it anymore, I reached out and rubbed its head, "I'll sit for a while, you should rest and recuperate."
After saying that, he pretended not to notice the other person's angry look, suppressed his smile, sat down cross-legged, and began to practice qigong and regulate his breathing.
…
The true qi circulated in the body for several cycles, and the dantian felt extremely warm, like a huge energy field, integrating the absorbed true qi and transporting them to various parts of the body in a more vigorous manner.
Lu Qingqing gathered her breath and ended her meditation. At that moment, she felt an immense joy in her heart, a sense of happiness emanating from every pore, a feeling that could not be adequately described in words.
She had a strong premonition that she was not far from her goal of forming a pill.
Looking at the dagger placed beside him, the rust on it had disappeared a lot, and some parts revealed the cold white sword body.
Shura Secret Realm is indeed a great place.
Of course, it was also a very dangerous place. Even a small spirit beast with a higher level of cultivation than her was seriously injured and its spiritual power was drained, and it almost died at the hands of a fourth-level magic beast.
At this moment, the little creature was sitting in a posture that looked a bit strange from a human perspective. Its two hind legs were crossed, and its front paws tried to rest on its hind legs, but because they were too short to reach, they could only hang in the air.
How should I put it, it's both ridiculous and cute.
The spirit beast was so sharp that it immediately noticed Lu Qingqing's gaze and suddenly opened its eyes. Its charming eyes seemed to glare at her.
"Did I disturb your practice?" Lu Qingqing couldn't help laughing, "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
The little spirit beast looked at her, its pupils growing and shrinking, and no one knew what it was thinking.
"You're strong, I understand." Lu Qingqing put away her smile and said as she packed her bag, "But you still have to be careful while you're recovering here. If there's real danger, fight if you can, run if you can't. Staying alive is more important than anything else."
Mao Runrun was stunned for a moment, then stopped meditating, squatted on all fours, and looked up at her.
"I'm very happy to meet you." Lu Qingqing knew that the other party was better than her, and she also knew that he might think she was nagging, but she didn't care.
She looked at Mao Rongrong tenderly, the image of the little spirit beast reflected in her sparkling eyes. "I hope your cultivation goes smoothly, you will understand the heart of Tao, and step onto the great path."
After giving her most heartfelt blessings, she picked up her bag, put on her cone hat, and prepared to leave.
The law of once in a lifetime exists among all things in the world.
Maybe she will never see this little cutie again, but all experiences are fate, and she does not regret saving it.
"etc."
Before Lu Qingqing stepped out of the stone house, she heard these two words in her mind.
It's very calm, even a little cold, but its voice is as sweet as its roar, fierce and cute.
She turned around and asked in surprise, "Can you speak?"
It turns out that talking to spirit beasts is similar to talking to the system, and it is all done in the consciousness.
Mao Rongrong sat by the fire and glanced at Lu Qingqing, "Of course."
...It turns out that you didn't want to pay attention to me before. What a cold little thing.
"Excuse me, Lord Mao Rongrong, do you have any instructions?" Lu Qingqing smiled with eyes like crescent moons, and even through the veil of the cone hat, she could see clearly.
The little spirit beast stood up and stretched.
"I'll go with you."
This time Lu Qingqing was really shocked, and her eyes widened unconsciously.
The arrogant and lonely Fluffy, do you want to be with her?
I'm afraid I heard it wrong?
Soon the little spirit beast let her know that there was nothing wrong with her ears.
"Your cultivation is too shallow, and you don't know the way. If you encounter a high-level monster, you will die."
"..." Such a cute face, such a sweet voice, could actually say such cold words.
But Lu Qingqing was powerless to refute. The other party was right, she was just a rookie.
When you meet a good spiritual beast, you will naturally feel happy, but you will also worry about its health.
As if seeing through Lu Qingqing's inner thoughts, the little spirit beast opened its mouth and said, "My injury is no longer serious."
"Okay." Lu Qingqing wasn't the pretentious type. Since the other party was willing to go with her, she was naturally happy to go on a journey with such a cute little spirit beast. "Then take me to a place where there are more intermediate-level magical beasts. You won't have to fight, and you don't have to be afraid. I'll protect you."
When she patted her chest and made the promise, she looked into the distance with a heroic look and did not notice the moment when Mao Runrun's mouth twitched.
…
Without further ado, let’s set off immediately.
Since the little spirit beast was awake, it naturally refused to be held in Lu Qingqing's arms. However, it had not yet fully recovered, and Lu Qingqing was worried that walking in the snow would be a burden on its body. So after a while of bargaining, they finally compromised by letting it squat on Lu Qingqing's shoulders.
Before entering the house, heavy snow was falling and the sky was chaotic; now it was clear after the snowfall and the sky and the earth were bright and clear.
White clouds float in the blue sky, and towering mountains are standing not far away. The rising spiritual energy merges with the clouds, creating a spectacular sight.
"It's so beautiful..." Lu Qingqing couldn't help but sigh.
The little spirit beast's milky yet cold voice said, "It's also very dangerous."
Lu Qingqing: ...
I was speechless.
When the weather gets better, even walking on the ice that never melts will make you feel much better.
What's more, there is a fluffy and warm little spirit beast on his shoulder.
My pace quickened unknowingly, and the mountain pass was just around the corner.
The eternal snow-capped mountains stand silently, and it is unknown how many tens of thousands of years they have existed.
The wind and snow in the mountains had not stopped. The sound of the wind was as sharp as a scream, mixed with ice chips, sweeping over and hitting the face painfully.
In stark contrast to the bright sunshine in the safe zone, the harsh environment here seems to be warning visitors: unless you are a brave man who is ready to face death, do not step into this dangerous place.
Lu Qingqing took out the dagger, held it in her hand, and lifted the little spirit beast onto her shoulder. She strode forward against the wind and snow.
The wind at the mountain pass was getting stronger and stronger, making my ears ring and the veil of my cone hat was lifted onto my head. If I were a mortal, I would probably be unable to move an inch.
Lu Qingqing mobilized her true energy and moved forward against the wind.
The remaining snow and broken ice automatically avoided her as if they had encountered a transparent barrier.
Even the fluffy little body lying on her shoulder was stable, even though its hair was blown all over the place by the wind, it was not as stable as before.
Elegant and beautiful, yet still calm and composed.
After passing the mountain pass, a towering and steep mountain appears in front of you. Under the cover of snow, lush green can be vaguely seen.
With every breath, spiritual energy flows into the body, bringing healing.
In contrast, Lu Qingqing also felt the silent murderous aura in the air.
There are four ways into the mountain.
