Sheng He thought of the little yellow dog she used to raise in the countryside. Every time the little yellow dog did something wrong, it would look at her pitifully like this.

Sheng He sighed helplessly: "Okay, you can follow me, but I don't have any extra spirit stones to give you."

Song Jinzhi's eyes lit up again instantly, and he nodded quickly, "Fairy Sheng, don't worry, I will never cause you any trouble!"

Sheng He nodded, and the two of them walked towards the swamp forest together.

At this time, Zhao Yanran was waiting confidently near Lingquan Waterfall.

…

Five months later.

Zhao Yanran was still waiting near Lingquan Waterfall.

"Junior sister, the person you are waiting for hasn't arrived yet?"

Zhao Yanran waved her hand irritably to drive away the little bugs that were buzzing around her. She also wanted to know why Song Jinzhi hadn't come after half a year.

If she asked the system, it would only ask her to wait a little longer, maybe a few more days.

But I've been waiting for several months.

Zhao Yanran was extremely upset, but she still had a gentle smile on her face.

"Yes, brother, let's wait a little longer. Maybe he was delayed on the way."

Chu Heng nodded, as if he wanted to say something else but didn't know how to start.

Zhao Yanran asked caringly: "Brother, is there anything else?"

Chu Heng's expression was a little strange. He took out a dry branch from his arms and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't doubt Junior Sister Yanran.

At that time, he was ambushed by a man in black and was seriously injured. It was Yanran who used all her magic weapons to rescue him. Not only did she take good care of him, she also risked her life to pick spiritual herbs for him to detoxify. Junior Sister Yanran had a deep affection for him.

but……

Chu Heng scratched his head in confusion, but this green vine was indeed useless.

At first, Chu Heng thought that his injury had not yet fully healed, so he was unable to absorb the spiritual energy in the green wood vine.

But now his body has recovered a lot, not only is he still unable to refine this green wood vine, but he feels that the spiritual energy of the green wood vine is weakening day by day.

Until this morning, the spiritual energy on the green wood vine completely disappeared and it turned into a dead branch.

Zhao Yanran looked at the dead branch in Chu Heng's hand in confusion and asked, "Brother, what's wrong? But you have already refined the green wood vine?"

Looking at the joy in Zhao Yanran's eyes, Chu Heng really couldn't tell the truth.

No matter what, Junior Sister Yanran saved his life. Besides, Junior Sister Yanran had fire spiritual roots and did not need Qingmu vine. How could she deliberately lie to him?

Maybe the man in black secretly replaced the Aoki vine when they were not paying attention.

Chu Heng forced a smile and put away the green wood vine.

"Let's not talk about this for now, Junior Sister. If that person doesn't come, do we have to keep waiting?"

"Wait, he will definitely come."

The other side.

Sheng He put away his sword and looked up at the blue sky.

In the past six months, she has practiced sword skills day and night, and finally mastered the eighth move of Qingyun Sword Technique. The six-month appointment with Yuehan Mountain is about to expire.

It’s time to set off to look for Senior Sister Mu and Senior Sister Yun. I don’t know how they have been doing in the past six months.

Sheng He looked at Song Jinzhi who was squatting on the side studying the formation and waved at him.

"Song Jinzhi, let's go, we are going to Yuehan Mountain."

Song Jinzhi raised his head from the simple battle formations of all sizes scattered all over the floor. He showed no displeasure at being disturbed and smiled faintly, "Okay, Fairy Sheng, let's go then."

He waved his hand casually, and a breeze blew up the dust on the ground, instantly covering the formation diagram on the ground.

Yuehan Mountain is in the central area of ​​the secret realm. The two flew eastward along the swamp forest on their swords, and in just two or three days they arrived at the foot of Yuehan Mountain.

Sheng He set out ten days in advance and thought he would be the first one to arrive, but he never expected that two hardworking figures were already squatting at the foot of Yuehan Mountain.

Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan each held a hoe and were squatting on the ground, looking like they were digging something.

"Senior Sister Mu! Senior Sister Yun! Why are you here so early!"

Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan looked at each other, tacitly took out a new hoe from the storage bag, and waved to Sheng He.

"Come here, Junior Sister, there are good things here!"

It was not until Sheng He and Song Jinzhi came closer that they knew what the "good stuff" that Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan were talking about was.

In front of them was a large cave several feet wide, with dozens of gems scattered sparsely on the rock walls of the cave.

Yun Qianshan used a small hoe to carefully pry one of the purple gems from the rock wall, and then hurriedly caught it with his hands.

Under the sunlight, the purple gem reflects dazzling light.

"Is this... a crystal?"

"Yes!" Yun Qianshan put the purple gem into the storage bag with a smile, and pointed to several large pits dug around him.

"We're going to make a fortune! There are high-quality crystals everywhere here. When we get out of the secret realm, we can sell them in the pawn shop. At least one crystal can be exchanged for a medium-quality spirit stone! Then we will make a fortune!"

Song Jinzhi admired the few crystals still embedded in the rock wall and shook his head gently: "No, a crystal of such good quality should be worth at least ten mid-grade spirit stones."

Yun Qianshan smiled so hard that his eyes curved, and quickly handed the hoe in his hand to Sheng He.

"Oh, this fellow Taoist has a good eye. Xiaohe and the others should not be idle either. Come and dig quickly. We are going to make a fortune now, hahaha!"

Sheng He took the small hoe from Yun Qianshan, and imitated Yun Qianshan, using the corner of the hoe to gently press against the crystal, then applying a little force.

With a "click", a green crystal fell off the rock wall.

Sheng He took the crystal in his hand and looked at it carefully. This fist-sized crystal exuded a light green light and was pure and flawless without a trace of impurities.

"How about it, beautiful, right?"

Yun Qianshan gently nudged Sheng He and raised his eyebrows and said, "There are more beautiful ones."

As Yun Qianshan spoke, he took out a dozen crystals of various colors from his storage bag.

A whole row of crystals lay quietly on the grass. The evening sunlight fell on these crystals, refracting colorful light.

"This is a set of crystal stones that I have been digging for several months. It is very difficult to collect them. Isn't your birthday coming soon? This is my birthday gift for you. Why don't you thank me, Senior Sister?"

Yun Qianshan held his head high, with an expression that looked like he was begging for praise.

Seeing this, Sheng He quickly covered his eyes and said with emotion: "Wow, thank you, Senior Sister Yun, this gift is so beautiful, I want to be the best in the world with Senior Sister Yun!"

Yun Qianshan was obviously enjoying it very much. He gently tapped Sheng He's forehead with his finger and said coquettishly, "Don't sell it!"

Sheng He held the crystal in his arms and said with a money-grubber smile: "Hey, I won't sell it, I definitely won't sell it!"
