Yun Chujiu took advantage of the break in the afternoon to climb to the top of a big tree again and looked around.
This demon beast forest was boundless and there was no end to it at all. Yun chujiu originally planned to see if there were any bird nests on the surrounding trees, but she found nothing. This meant that there were no flying demon birds here.
Yun chujiu could only climb down the tree in disappointment. “How about this, we won’t go forward for the time being. Everyone dig more of those roots and wait for your stamina to recover a little. We’ll continue to move forward tomorrow morning.”
The three of them couldn’t have hoped for more. Now, they felt so hungry that their forehearts were sticking to their backs. Moreover, they didn’t even dare to drink too much of the Vine’s juice, afraid that they would die of thirst after drinking it all.
Jin Zhi and the other two went to look for the roots of that plant. Yun chujiu looked around, trying to find a new source of food. She was not afraid of any poison, but Jin Zhi and the others were not. Therefore, the range of food choices was very small.
Yun chujiu wandered around looking for food. Perhaps because she was absent-minded, she stumbled and almost fell on the ground.
This guy was so angry that he cursed while kicking the dried leaves on the ground. Suddenly, he found a fist-sized cave under the dried leaves.
This guy was delighted. A cave meant that there was an animal. No matter what it was, as long as it could fill his stomach, it was fine.
Therefore, this guy took the dagger and started digging. After digging for a long time, he finally reached the bottom of the cave. There was an animal skeleton and some rotten fruits in the cave.
Yun chujiu saw that the skeleton was green, so she judged that the little thing either died from poisoning from eating the fruit, or it was bitten by something because it was stealing the fruit, and that thing was poisonous.
Yun chujiu called Xue Wuji and the others over and told them her guess.
Although they were worried, they were still very excited. If they had the fruit, not only could they fill their stomachs, but they could also quench their thirst. This would kill two birds with one stone.
The four of them were afraid of encountering demonic beasts, so they did not dare to split up. They began to search for wild fruits together.
Finally, they found a small piece of wild fruit a few miles away. These wild fruits did not grow on trees. Instead, they were a small patch of shrubs. The fruits were embellished within, and they were red and very tempting.
Ye Bingyu was so excited that she was about to pounce over, but she was grabbed by Yun Chujiu. She shook her head slightly, signaling everyone to be careful. Then, she picked up a small rock on the ground and threw it over.
There was a hissing sound coming from within the bushes. Then, everyone felt their scalps go numb when they realized that three snake heads had actually appeared from within.
Yun chujiu waved her hand, and everyone carefully retreated a distance away.
“That’s a level four iron-skinned venomous snake. Its skin is extremely tough and extremely poisonous. When we had spiritual power, we could easily kill it with a flick of our little fingers. But now, it’s not so easy to deal with! There are three of them!”Xue Wuji said with a frown.
To be honest, Yun chujiu was not afraid of that Bullsh * t snake venom at all. If she risked the price of being bitten a few times, she could totally catch the three poisonous snakes alone.
However, she knew that someone must be secretly watching their test. If she did that, the fact that she was not afraid of the venom would be exposed. It was not worth it. She had to think of another way.
Yun chujiu rolled her eyes. “Do you want to eat snake meat?”
The three of them swallowed their saliva. Although they used to stay away from snake meat, their eyes were blue with hunger now. They did not care about it as long as it could fill their stomachs.
