Chapter 29: Occasionally Be Innocent

Hundreds of bones, as the name suggests, are buried with hundreds of skeletons, among which monsters are rampant and dangerous. Every day, people who come to hunt monsters or look for elixir die here.

According to rumors, there are even terrifying monsters that are equivalent to the soul-repelling realm in the center of Baiku Mountain.

In order to prevent mortals from entering Baizhai Mountain by mistake, the three major sects, including Tianyun Pavilion, joined forces to set up a great formation of clouds and mists, making it difficult for people without spiritual power to enter Baizhai Mountain half a step.

About two hours later, the three of Jiang Zhige appeared above Baiku Mountain.

"Brother, these mountains look like bones."

Nangong Rou hugged Jiang Zhige tightly behind her back, looking curiously at Baiku Mountain.

Looking down from the three people's perspectives, the continuous Hundred Bone Mountains looked like a corpse.

"Rouer, that's why Baiku Mountain got its name back then. There are countless monsters inhabiting it. You have to follow us when you enter the mountain."

"Brother, you are not allowed to underestimate me, I am in the Spirit Martial Realm!"

Nangong Rou pouted, if she was protected by Jiang Zhige all her life, she would be a sister all her life.

Jiang Zhige was secretly helpless, but he hoped that Nangong Rou could deal with the monsters alone.

Ning Qiushui, who was not far away, smiled and said nothing. If there was a real battle, she didn't expect the two brothers and sisters to come in handy.

Jiang Zhige is still young, and his cultivation is only in the Dirty Refinement Realm. Although Nangong Rou has just entered the Spiritual Martial Realm, he has been growing up under the protection of Jiang Zhige and his master, and his actual fighting ability may not be as good as Jiang Zhi in the Dirty Refinement Realm. Go.

After a while, the three people and the two cranes slowly stopped on a certain slope of Baiku Mountain.

Ning Qiushui jumped off the cranes, overlooking the vibrant Baizhai Mountain jungle, and asked, "Junior Brother, do you know what environment the illusory spirit grass generally grows in?"

"Dark, damp place, and the environment must have a certain spiritual energy, there are usually monsters such as Zhengjiao and black blood bats entrenched nearby."

Jiang Zhige had already learned the knowledge of elixir, and Lingxu Grass was a commonly used elixir in the sect, so he would naturally understand.

Ning Qiushui nodded, with a look of approval for Jiang Zhige.

In fact, she just said a mission casually before, and wanted Jiang Zhige to accompany her justifiably, but she had never understood the growth environment of Lingxu grass.

If Jiang Zhige didn't know about Lingxu Grass, the three of them could only stroll around Baizhai Mountain today.

"Zhenjiao, black blood bats... They are all monsters that are equivalent to the early and middle stages of Lingwu realm in adulthood. It shouldn't be difficult for me to deal with them."

Ning Qiushui pondered to herself, although her purpose was not to complete the sect mission, she had to act like she did.

After confirming the direction to look for, Ning Qiushui let the two cranes leave first, and the three of them crossed the hillside and began to go deep into Baiku Mountain.

There are only low-level monsters in the body-refining stage in the peripheral area of ​​Baizhai Mountain. To find the Lingxu grass with the spirit-martial-level monsters entrenched in it, the three of them have to go deep into the Baizhe Mountains at least one mile.

After walking for a while, Ning Qiushui suddenly stopped, turned to look at Jiang Zhige and said, "Junior Brother, we definitely won't be able to find Lingxu Grass for a while, so why don't we act separately?"

"But..."

Jiang Zhige glanced at Nangong Rou and hesitated.

How could he be assured of letting Nangong Rou act alone in the perilous Baizhan Mountains?

Ning Qiushui waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have three soul-penetrating stones. As long as I don't leave too far, I can notify other people in time in case of danger."

As she spoke, she took out two light blue crystals from the storage ring and handed them to Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou.

Through the soul stone, it can sense the specific location of the other party within ten miles, and can conduct voice transmission conversations at any time.

"It turns out that the senior sister was already prepared, and the junior brother was stupid."

Jiang Zhige cupped his hands, took two soul-penetrating stones, and handed one of them to Nangong Rou.

Noticing his movements, Ning Qiushui couldn't help but frown.

"I said, Junior Brother, I'm a few years older than you, but I'm also a person of the same generation as you. Can you stop being so outspoken all the time?"

Jiang Zhige's politeness was like a direct statement that Nangong Rou was his relative, while Ning Qiushui was just an outsider.

For a woman with a heart, this kind of unintentional life is too hurtful.

Jiang Zhige was stunned for a while, but he didn't realize what made Ning Qiushui feel alienated.

Nangong Rou shrugged and said helplessly: "My brother is like this, he is very polite to everyone. My master is so unserious, he will still treat him with courtesy."

Ning Qiushui's expression was slightly stagnant when he heard the words, and a loneliness flashed in his eyes.

The three came together on a crane, and she could see the harmony between Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou.

So Jiang Zhige wasn't sympathetic to Ning Qiu, just polite.

However, Nangong Rou was an exception. Ning Qiushui would naturally feel unwilling to use her as a comparison object.

Ning Qiushui did not feel discouraged because of this, after all, today is just the beginning, and she still has a long way to go.

Ning Qiushui quickly adjusted her state. She looked up at Jiang Zhige, and said earnestly, "Junior brother, junior brother, you are a teenager, don't always be old-fashioned, and it's not a bad thing to be innocent occasionally?"

Ning Qiushui suddenly stretched out his hands and squeezed Jiang Zhige's face.

Jiang Zhige froze all over, not knowing what to do for a while.

He didn't expect that Fairy Ning, who was unsullied in the eyes of others, would have such a casual side.

Looking at Jiang Zhige, who was stunned and allowed himself to squeeze his face, Ning Qiushui couldn't help but chuckle.

Judging from his appearance alone, Jiang Zhige is clearly a childish young man, but his words and deeds are like an experienced veteran.

"Let go! Let go! Bad Senior Sister, how can you pinch my brother's face!"

Nangong Rou next to her was angry and anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and separated the two.

Ning Qiushui blinked and pretended to be innocent: "Stingy, I just squeezed it lightly."

For some reason, seeing Jiang Zhige, who was usually serious, looked overwhelmed, she actually felt a little joy in her heart as if she had won.

"you!"

Nangong Rou's face flushed with anger, and she had the urge to fight with Ning Qiushui.

If Jiang Zhige was really a naive young man and Ning Qiushui pinched his cheeks, others would only think it was his sister's intimacy with his younger brother.

But Jiang Zhige has always been a mature and stable type of person. Ning Qiushui suddenly made such an intimate gesture, and the atmosphere instantly became ambiguous, right?

Ning Qiushui didn't care about Nangong Rou's anger, he waved at Jiang Zhige and said, "Junior Brother, if you encounter danger, remember to notify me in time."

She said with brisk steps and quickly disappeared from the sight of the two of them.

Nangong Rouyin clenched her teeth tightly. As soon as Ning Qiushui left, she really had nowhere to shed her anger.

"Bad! It's all bad!"

Nangong Rou held back for a long time, and finally could only stomp her feet to let out her breath.

After she finished speaking, she glared at Jiang Zhige and left without saying hello.

Jiang Zhige couldn't help feeling helpless. He didn't say a word the whole time, but he still made Nangong Rou angry.
