Chapter 4080: Not in vain

Ma Yuan's crying gradually became quieter, and she looked at Zhao Xu with a look of admiration.

That big water snake is at least seven or eight meters long.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xu could actually kill the big water snake.

Zhao Xu's clothes were soaked with water.

He stood on the raft and looked far into the distance, already vaguely able to see the other side of the lake.

Said: "We are almost there!"

After saying that, he took the wood pulp from Xu Zhi's hand and said, "Xuzhi, just rest! I'll paddle."

"Akun, follow me!"

I saw Zhao Xu moving the oar like flying, and the raft quickly rowed towards the other side like an arrow off the string.

Yin Kun followed closely behind, paddling the wood pulp.

The two rafts are extremely fast.

Ni Jing and Ma Yuan looked at each other, their eyes filled with incredible looks.

The paddling speed of this raft is almost as fast as that of a speedboat.

The key is that Zhao Xu and Yin Kun have always maintained such a constant speed.

Although the two girls did not understand martial arts, they also knew that Zhao Xu's arm strength was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

When we reached the other side, we were greeted by a scene of birds singing and flowers fragrant.

This is a completely different season from the other side, just like spring, the sun is shining warmly on you.

Zhao Xu saw two rafts parked on the shore and walked closer to take a closer look.

Ni Jing came over and said to Zhao Xu: "There is a raft here. Is your friend already here?"

"Probably!" Zhao Xu nodded. "However, there should be others here."

"other people?"

"Yes! My friend is just one person, and it is impossible to row two rafts together."

Ni Jing thought that Zhao Xu's words were reasonable and said: "Who could be coming over then?"

"I don't know!" Zhao Xu shook his head.

After taking a look, Zhao Xu saw that the sun had tilted to the west.

If the sun goes down, it will be very cold here.

In addition, Ma Yuan, Sun Weifeng, Xu Sheng and Xu Zhi, as well as his clothes, were all soaked with water. If the clothes were not dried, they would be easily infected by wind and cold.

Zhao Xu found an open place and suggested resting there.

He asked Xu Sheng and Xu Zhi to pick up some dry firewood nearby.

Zhao Xu took out the fire folder from his body and lit a bonfire.

Then, I found some branches and set them up as a clothes drying rack.

A few people whose clothes were wet took off their coats and placed them on the branches to dry the clothes.

Fortunately, Ni Jing still has a coat in her backpack.

She found a coat and asked Ma Yuan to put it on. Otherwise, Ma Yuan would be exposed.

Everyone sat around the bonfire.

Zhao Xu said: "You guys wait here, I'll go take a look around!"

After saying that, he went out wearing a vest.

Within ten minutes, Zhao Xu came back.

He said that it was very safe here, so that everyone could rest at ease.

Cai Wenhan said: "I didn't expect that there are water snakes in Tianshui Lake."

Zhao Xu replied: "There must be unknown and dangerous things in such deep waters. Fortunately, everyone is safe."

"Mr. Zhao, do you know where the land of Kunxu is?" Cai Wenhan asked.

Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "I don't know! But I believe it's not far from here."

Ni Jing asked in confusion: "What kind of place is the land of Kunxu?"

Zhao Xu explained: "It is a place with particularly abundant spiritual energy. People who practice martial arts, especially those who practice internal martial arts, need to practice Qi in order to increase their skills. The more abundant the spiritual energy in a place, the speed of practicing will be significantly increased."

It can be said that this is a place that martial arts people dream of."

"Does your friend come here to practice martial arts?"

"She's here to help me find a rare medicinal ingredient."

"What medicinal materials?" Cai Wenhan asked curiously.

Zhao Xu did not hide anything and replied: "It's Jade Toad! My master once saw Jade Toad here. So, my friend came here to help me find Jade Toad."

Ni Jing asked in confusion: "Mr. Zhao, why are you looking for the medicinal material Yu Chan? Is someone in the family sick?"

"No! I can't tell you about this."

Seeing that Zhao Xu didn't say the reason, Ni Jing didn't ask any more questions.

In about two hours, everyone's clothes were almost baked.

Zhao Xu suggested to everyone: "Shall we look for the land of Kunxu? If we don't find it, just find a place to spend the night."

Everyone had a quick bite to eat, replenished some energy, and then set out again.

Along the way, I heard Cai Wenhan shouting in surprise.

"This is morning glory!"

"It's morning glory."

Zhao Xu picked some "morning glory" and put them in his bag.

Cai Wenhan said: "Morning glory is an endangered herb in China. I didn't expect there to be so many morning glory here."

Zhao Xu is an alchemist and often discusses traditional Chinese medicine with Hua Yi. Therefore, he knows the names of some medicinal materials very well.

As Cai Wenhan said, the herb "morning glory" is on the verge of extinction outside. I didn't expect there to be so many morning glory here.

"Mr. Zhao, what are you doing with these herbs?" Ni Jing asked.

Zhao Xu said: "This morning glory is a top-quality medicinal material. If you don't harvest it, wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources?"

"Is the price high?"

"One pound costs almost 100,000 yuan, but it's still expensive but not marketable."

"So valuable?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Jing took out a bag from the package she carried with her and picked a lot of morning glory.

It’s a hard time to come here, and there will almost never be another time. Of course, you can’t leave empty-handed.

When other people heard that morning glory was valuable, they also picked some.

With a click, Sun Weifeng suddenly stepped on something.

Sun Weifeng was so frightened that he shouted "Ah!"

"What's wrong, Weifeng?" Everyone looked at Sun Weifeng.

Sun Weifeng looked down and saw that it was a human leg bone.

He exclaimed: "It's a human leg bone!"

Everyone immediately gathered around Sun Weifeng.

Zhao Xu saw that the bones that were trampled by Sun Weifeng were indeed human leg bones.

However, this bone must have been here for a long time.

It had been weathered by the wind and sun. Therefore, Sun Weifeng was able to crush it with one kick.

Zhao Xu looked around.

It was discovered that there were many bones in the surrounding area not far away.

In addition to human bones, there are also some animal bones.

Among them are the bones of several large animals.

After Cai Wenhan looked at it, he said: "This is a bear bone, this is a yak bone. This seems to be a sheep bone..."

Zhao Xu was very impressed by Cai Wenhan's ability to identify animals through their bones.

Cai Wenhan asked Zhao Xu: "Mr. Zhao, have you read The Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

"I haven't seen it!" Zhao Xu shook his head.

Cai Wenhan explained: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas is the earliest heterogeneous material in my country. It records that the soil cricket is in the Kunlun Mountains."

"What is a soil cricket?" Zhao Xu asked puzzledly.

"It's a sheep with four horns. Legend has it that earth crickets can eat people."
