On the other side, Ye Xian paused in his chic steps and patted his forehead in annoyance, "It's a loss, it's a big loss this time."

Blue tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I forgot to take away Barton's storage items, which gave them an advantage."

Blue has followed Ye Xian these days and has been deeply influenced by her. He puffed up his face and said, "Then let's go back now and get the storage items back. "

Ye Xian was a little moved, but after a while he still shook his head and objected, "Forget it, it's better to avoid dealing with those people."

Ye Xian grew up in an aristocratic family and was ostracized by her clan, especially what her brother and sister Ye Pianran did to her, which made her naturally feel alienated from the children of the aristocratic family.

She didn't want to have too much contact with those people, so she reluctantly gave up Barton's storage props, returned the same way, plundered all the belongings carried by the other members of the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group, and left.

She did not dispose of the body because she knew that after she and Blue left, the expelled monsters would return to this place, and they would destroy her body and eliminate all traces of it.

Blue was still held in Ye Xian's arms. Seeing that Ye Xian didn't remember to put him down or remind him, he shook his head and pointed to the north with his little finger, "Let's go there, I feel the smell of herbs there.

!”

Ye Xian's eyes widened, and he immediately put all the worries behind him, and walked away quickly with the wind blowing under his feet.

Under Blue's guidance, Ye Xian walked through a winding neighborhood and came to the foot of a high mountain.

Ye Xian raised his head and looked at the mountains with no boundaries at a glance, "Is that herb growing on the mountain wall?"

Blue closed his eyes for a moment, then opened his eyes in confusion and scratched his soft blond hair. "It's strange. The herb should be nearby, but I can't determine its specific location. Let's look around first."

.”

Ye Xian was surprised. In the past, Blue could accurately tell where the herbs were hidden, but this was the first time he encountered a situation where he couldn't be sure.

She didn't ask any more questions and followed her instructions, searching the area inch by inch.

The search lasted two hours.

Blue also started to get anxious. He jumped down from Ye Xian's arms and kept spinning around a place at the foot of the mountain, muttering to himself, "No, it should be right here."

Ye Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, scanning the position where Blue stood inch by inch with his sharp eyes, and then suddenly stopped.

"Bru, I think I found it, you come here first."

Upon hearing this, Blue ran to Ye Xian's side, raised his little head and asked, "Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"

Ye Xian couldn't help but reached out and touched his head, "Don't worry, you'll see it soon."

She walked to where Blue was standing just now, moved her wrist, and then punched out under Blue's surprised gaze.

Bang!

First there was a muffled sound, and then there was a fine cracking sound.

Crash--

A large hole opened in the ground in an instant, and countless broken stones and soil fell down. When the movement subsided, a dark, bottomless hole was revealed.

Blue ran to the entrance of the cave and looked down, "I said I couldn't find it. It turns out it's underground!"

He raised his head and said happily, "The herbs are down there, let's go down now."

Unexpectedly, Ye Xian shook his head at him, "You stay here, I'll go down alone."

"Why! I want to be with you!" Blue pouted and looked at Ye Xian angrily.

Ye Xian frowned slightly, "Bru, this place doesn't feel good to me. I don't feel at ease. Can you just wait for me here?"

When the entrance to the cave was revealed, the nerves in Ye Xian's brain suddenly became tense.

The cave is deep and there is no light, which makes people feel fearful.

Ye Xian does not want to involve Blue in danger.

But Blue's attitude was very firm, "Don't try to leave me behind, I will stay with you, or I won't tell you where the herbs are next time!"

This threat was very effective. Ye Xian had no choice but to make a three-part agreement with him, "I can take you down, but you have to be quiet and don't make any noise. If you encounter danger, you will run away immediately if I tell you. Do you understand?"

?”

"Yeah!" Blue nodded vigorously.

Ye Xian picked up Blue with one arm again, took out a large robe from the storage bracelet and wrapped it around him, and then jumped into the black hole with him.

The wind howled, and the strong wind hit my face like a knife.

Ye Xian protected Blue's head with his hands, his mental energy clinging to his feet, and his eyes tried their best to discern the surrounding environment.

I don't know how long it took, but she heard a thud as her feet finally landed.

Under the influence of mental power, Ye Xian was not greatly affected. She took out the fire and lit it, illuminating the surroundings. She found that they were in a bare cave, with only an endless road ahead.

"The herbs are just ahead."

"Um."

Ye Xian nodded slightly and walked forward along that road.

As we walked further in, the faint sound of the wind became clearer, and from time to time we could still see residual excrement on the ground. I thought this place must be the lair of some kind of monster.

The cave was winding and twisting, rising and falling at times, and Ye Xian almost hit the mountain wall several times.

Blue was very quiet along the way. He hugged Ye Xian's neck obediently and could only hear his shallow breathing.

After turning another corner, a faint light appeared at the end of the line of sight.

Ye Xian's eyes brightened slightly, he finally arrived.

Not only did her pace not speed up, but she began to slow down, holding the boning knife in her hand.

The field of vision gradually broadened, and the panoramic view of the cave was completely revealed in front of Ye Xian.

The interior of the cave, which is dozens of meters high, is empty and simple, with a lotus-shaped stone platform placed in the middle.

There is a green blade of grass in the center of the lotus platform, swaying with the breeze.

"It's the Stem of the Stone." Blue suppressed his voice, "The top-level herb among the fourth-level herbs, its value is even comparable to that of ordinary fifth-level herbs."

Ye Xian's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he instantly made up his mind to take this herb away.

"What are the growth habits of the stem in the stone? Are there accompanying monsters?"

"The stem in the stone likes silence and will only grow in the heart of the stone. As for its accompanying monster..." Bruce thought for a moment before continuing, "It should be the rolling stone beast."

The Rolling Stone Beast is a special kind of monster. It feeds on stones, doesn't like light, and stays in the dark underground all year round. It looks like a stone, and its physical defense is terrifying.

"Is Rolling Stone nearby?"

"Not here."

Ye Xian's heart relaxed slightly, he held his breath and approached the stem in the stone.

One step, two steps...

In the quiet cave, only the sound of footsteps can be heard.

Ye Xian came to the front of the lotus platform, and there was a strange fragrance lingering at the tip of her nose. She got lucky, and then she stretched out her palm as fast as lightning, grabbed the stem in the stone, and pulled it outward with force.

Bo!

The stem in the stone was uprooted. Before Ye Xian could be happy, a loud banging sound suddenly came from under his feet.

Then the ground shook.

Ye Xian's expression suddenly changed.

No, the cave is going to collapse.
Chapter completed!
