The Almighty Princess just wants to farm

There was no light in the cave. In order to make it easier for everyone to search for the blood dead wood, Dongfang Li could only let a small number of people stay outside the cave while everyone else entered the cave to help search.

"Master, do you think the blood dead wood grows on the ground like grass, or does it grow on the wall like branches?"

Yan Jun raised his head and looked at the top of the cave. There was a plant there that seemed to have dried up due to lack of water.

"It's hard to say. There is no detailed record of it in any book."

Dongfang Li's eyes searched everywhere, and he would look at the people who came in looking for him from time to time to prevent them from touching something they shouldn't touch.

"Owner, I think you should come over and take a look. From what I've seen, this thing looks a bit like the bloody dead wood you mentioned?"

As soon as Yan Jun's voice fell, Dongfang Li's figure appeared beside him.

"where?"

"Then...look up..."

Dongfang Li looked in the direction Yan Jun pointed, with an increasingly obvious smile on his face.

"Nangong Xu...quick! Take me up!"

Dongfang Li excitedly patted Nangong Xu with her hand, but the latter didn't say anything. He just hugged her waist silently, and with a tap of his toes, the two of them landed directly on the "dry" plant. In front of.

"Yes, that's it. I finally found it."

"How do I get it?"

Nangong Xu listened to her confirmation that this plant was the blood dead tree they were looking for, and a rare smile appeared on his face in front of outsiders.

"Since we discovered it, we naturally have to take them all away. Let's get closer. There... there should be its roots..."

He wanted to uproot it. Nangong Xu shook his head helplessly, but moved his body obediently towards the root.

Dongfang Li took out his dagger and carefully broke down the earth and rocks around the roots.

"No wonder everyone wants a dagger made of cold iron. It's really easy to use."

"You are the only one who is willing to use a cold iron dagger to dig out rocks. If it had been anyone else, who knows what the treasure would have been like..."

Yan Jun avoided the spot where the gravel fell, folding his arms and looking at the two people above.

"You like it? Then I can give it to you when I finish using it later."

As he was talking, several screams suddenly came from the entrance of the cave.

"Go and see!"

Dongfang Li said something to Yan Jun, and the movements of his hands became much faster.

"what's up?"

"There's a ghost!"

When the people guarding the door saw Yan Jun coming out, they couldn't help but hide behind him, looking in horror at the place where the bones were buried not far ahead.

"Where did it come from... I cao..."

I stayed in the cave for a long time, and when I came out, it was already dark outside.

Not far away, where the bones were buried, clusters of faint blue firelight were dancing. This cluster went out, and the next cluster lit up, and more and more...

Crack...Crack...

A strange sound coming from far away directly caught Yan Jun's attention.

"Who is he? He's pretending to be a ghost, come out!"

"what happened?"

Dongfang Li and Nangong Xu appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"Owner, someone must be pretending to be a ghost. Look..."

Dongfang Li looked at the "will-o'-the-wisp" not far away.

"This is a natural phenomenon. Human bones contain a lot of calcium phosphate. When human or animal corpses decompose, they will decompose phosphine. The ignition point of phosphine is very low, so as long as the temperature is enough, it will A natural phenomenon will occur, the flame will be blue-green, floating in the air, which is the 'will-o'-the-wisp' you see now."

"There should be something else here."

Nangong Xu grabbed Dongfang Li, who wanted to go over to check, and listened carefully.

ga~ga~ga~

A burst of eerie laughter came from all directions, and then, white skeletons walked out from the back of the mountain, trapping everyone at the entrance of the cave.

"Is this a bone that has become a spirit?"

Yan Jun also had goosebumps aroused by the scene in front of him.

"Your sperm bones will not become sperm. There is something wrong with these bones. Someone must have done it deliberately. The purpose may be the same as ours..."

Dongfang Li frowned and looked at the bones walking towards them bit by bit.

"There is only one possibility I can think of to make the bones useful to others..."

Nangong Xu also looked at these bones with a heavy expression.

"puppet."

"puppet."

The two looked at each other and saw the solemn look in each other's eyes.

"The puppet has no pain and will inherit the power of the corpse. If the person who refines the puppet uses medicine to assist it, the combat effectiveness of the puppet will be several times what it was during life."

Dongfang Li looked at a white skeleton glowing with blue fluorescence with a headache.

"It's really rare to have such insight at such a young age..."

A man in black robes with a hoarse voice appeared in mid-air.

"I think so."

Dongfang Li stood in front of everyone with his arms folded.

"Little girl, if you are willing to become my teacher, I can not only teach you what I have learned throughout my life, but I can also let your friends leave safely."

"So good? I'm afraid there are other reasons besides thinking I'm excellent..."

"You are worthy of being my successor. You are indeed thoughtful. I won't talk around in circles with you. Whatever you just took from the cave, hand it over and treat it as your apprenticeship ceremony."

The man in black robe moved his fingers, and the white bones emitting blue fluorescence obviously accelerated their speed.

"He's running a puppet."

Nangong Xu whispered in Dongfang Li's ear.

Just now, if Dongfang Li hadn't signaled him not to take action, Nangong Xu would have been fighting with the man in black robe by now.

"This man is dangerous and I'm not sure if there's anything else on him."

"Yan Jun, take the people and hide in the cave first. Leave the affairs here to us."

Dongfang Li turned around and told Yan Jun.

"The owner..."

Yan Jun wanted to stay, but was stopped by Dongfang Li.

"You are no match for him, and there are so many people, it is easy to distract me."

"Yes."

"It seems like we can't reach an agreement?"

The man in black robe suddenly came closer.

Nangong Xu waved his hand and struck it with a palm, and the man in black robe quickly moved a white bone to block it in front of him.

Snapped……

The white bones immediately fell into pieces, showing how much force Nangong Xu used in this palm.

"Who are you? You can crush my puppet with one palm?"

The man in black robe fell to the ground, about a foot away from Nangong Xu.

"Who are you? What do you want to do by staying here and making a puppet out of bones?"

Nangong Xu turned sideways to block Dongfang Li from behind.

"It's useless to talk more. Today, you just need to give me the things you got in the cave, and I will be lenient and let you leave. Otherwise..."

"Then it depends on whether you have this ability..."
