Chapter 57 Invitation
Li Qingzhou heard footsteps, like human footsteps.
It was too coincidental that someone came just after he found the resources.
He immediately became alert.
The forest in the wild is not as orderly as in the city. Murder and resource grabbing happen from time to time. Although Li Qingzhou did not have much experience in the wild, he had seen many cases in news reports.
Ping An also raised three tails and looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound.
Pulling aside the leaves, a middle-aged man's face appeared. It was a square face, and two small eyes looked at Li Qingzhou cunningly.
"Little brother, you are lucky! You can find the wood-related resource Mu Ling Er. Mu Ling Er can be used as an evolution material for pets and can also be used as medicine. It is helpful to improve the strength of pets and beast masters." The man said.
Li Qingzhou looked at him vigilantly and did not speak. Behind him followed a ferocious beast that looked like a wild boar.
[Name: Powerful Porcupine]
[Attribute: Gold]
[Level: Bronze 9]
[Qualification: Bronze]
[Skills: Powerful Charge, Petrifying Fangs]
[Weakness: Fire]
[Evolutionary Route: 1]
[Introduction: The whole body is covered with sharp thorns, which have the function of protecting against enemies. When encountering enemies, the thorns stand upright and shake. It has great power, and the sharp fangs will petrify the enemies it touches. ]
"Little brother, don't be afraid, I'm not here to steal resources." The man waved his hand with a smile and continued, "My name is Qian San, and I'm also a beastmaster who comes to do a mission."
"Li Qingzhou." Li Qingzhou reported his name.
"Little brother, you have just become a beastmaster not long ago!" Qian San looked at Li Qingzhou and said. Li Qingzhou looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he still had a scholarly aura.
"Yes." Li Qingzhou said concisely.
"Just now I saw your pet take action, and its strength is not bad. I wonder if you can help me?" Qian San asked with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I have something else to do and can't help you." Li Qingzhou refused directly.
"I will pay the corresponding reward." Qian San saw that Li Qingzhou didn't agree, and immediately said.
Li Qingzhou shook his head and didn't agree.
There are too many dangers in the forest. Who knows how dangerous Qian San's help will be.
Seeing Li Qingzhou's firm attitude, Qian San showed a slightly unhappy look on his face, but immediately covered it up and put on a warm smile.
"You seem to be wary of me. In this case, I won't hide it. I found a major opportunity in the forest. If I can get it, the value is several times that of the wood spirit ear."
Qian San said.
"What opportunity?" Li Qingzhou put his backpack on his back and asked casually.
"I have been to this forest many times and am quite familiar with the situation inside. Some time ago, I found a treasure land in the forest, which has several kinds of precious resources."
"You also know that where there are many resources, there are also many fierce beasts. I can't handle it alone. My little brother's pet is quite powerful. Why don't we join forces and share the resources equally? What do you think?"
Qian San stared at Li Qingzhou, speaking with certainty.
This is Li Qingzhou's first time in Lingshi Forest and he is not familiar with the situation in the forest.
It took him half a day and good luck to pick the wooden ear.
In addition to the mission, he came to Lingshi Forest today for a second purpose, to see if there are any suitable wild fierce beasts such as stone monkeys that can be contracted.
It is too troublesome to search aimlessly by yourself. If there is someone familiar with the environment to lead the way, it may be easier and save a lot of time.
The treasure land that Qian San mentioned may be dangerous, but Ping An is powerful, so as long as he is careful, it should not be a problem.
With the bronze-level powerful porcupine, Qian San dared to try to obtain resources, and the degree of danger would not be too high.
Moreover, Ping An's strength is one level higher than Qian San's powerful porcupine, so even if he plays any tricks, he is not to be feared.
Thinking of this, Li Qingzhou had an idea in his mind.
"Where is the treasure land?" Li Qingzhou asked calmly.
Seeing Li Qingzhou's agreement, Qian San was delighted and immediately said, "Come with me, it's not far ahead, I'll take you there."
The two walked through the forest one after the other.
They encountered several black iron-level beasts on the road, but they were easily dealt with.
There were no dangers along the way.
Soon the two arrived at a stream.
The stream flowed quietly, whispering, and the water surface was like oil, with charming water ripples.
"We're here, the treasure land I'm talking about is here."
Qian San pointed to the stream in front and said.
Li Qingzhou looked at the stream in front. The stream was not deep and could be easily waded through.
There was a small tree growing by the stream, and the tree was full of bright red fruits.
That was the fire spirit fruit.
Li Qingzhou was not unfamiliar with this kind of fruit. One of the auxiliary materials for Ping An to evolve into a two-tailed demon fox was the Fire Spirit Fruit.
He roughly estimated that there were about 7 or 8 fruits on the small tree.
It was indeed valuable!
No wonder Qian San only expressed a slight surprise at picking the wood spirit ears, and did not have too many other greedy emotions. It turned out that his goal had long been on this Fire Spirit Fruit tree.
However, where there are precious materials, there are often hidden dangers.
Li Qingzhou's eyes swept around the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree and found several ferocious beasts lingering.
[Name: Sawtooth Crocodile]
[Attributes: Gold, Water]
[Level: Bronze 7]
[Qualification: Bronze]
[Skills: Water Tail, Bite]
[Weakness: Earth]
[Evolutionary route: 1]
[Introduction: The body of the sawtooth crocodile is blue, it has a developed jaw, and a rough personality. As long as there is something moving in front of it, it will go up and bite it first, no matter what it is, it can bite it to pieces]
By the stream, several sawtooth crocodiles are leisurely basking in the sun. They lie on the ground, their eyes slightly closed, and their mouths wide open.
They are all at the bronze level.
Several birds are flying in their mouths, and some land in the sawtooth crocodile's big mouth, pecking at something with their beaks. It is a fierce beast that coexists with the sawtooth crocodile, the toothpick bird.
[Name: Toothpick Bird]
[Attribute: Gold]
[Level: Black Iron Level 5]
[Qualification: Black Iron]
[Skill: Pecking]
[Weakness: Fire]
[Evolutionary route: 1]
[Introduction: The toothpick bird has a sharp and long beak. It is a bird that specializes in helping sawtooth crocodiles remove residual materials on their teeth. The toothpick bird dared to wake up the sawtooth crocodile during its lunch break, and then crawled into the crocodile's mouth to look for residual food. 】
The toothpick birds were only at the black iron level, not very strong, and basically posed no threat.
Li Qingzhou roughly understood the surrounding situation. This place was indeed a treasure land as Qian San said.
If the fire spirit fruit of the fire spirit fruit tree was divided equally between the two, each person could get three or four. The money from selling these fire spirit fruits exceeded his task reward for picking wood spirit ears.
This trip was not in vain.
