Chapter 685 Monkey Spirit Wine Ingredients
This time, Jingtian and Jiuxiao found their destination not far to the south.
Although they had never been there and the macaque did not tell the exact location, when they saw a towering mountain, Jingtian and Jiuxiao were certain that this mountain must be Monkey King Mountain.
The mountain has a unique shape, and looks like a standing monkey.
The height of this mountain is more than 4,000 meters, which is much higher than the surrounding mountains.
There are only scattered low trees on the mountain, and some of them are obviously withered. The rest are strange rocks. The whole mountain looks like it is built with huge stones .
Jiuxiao landed directly on the top of the mountain.
"It seems there are no living creatures."
Jiuxiao looked around and searched, frowning slightly and said to Jingtian.
Jingtian did not find any signs of any living creatures, but standing on the top of the mountain, his perception was limited to 500 meters, so even the halfway point was a long way off.
The two men searched down the mountain. The rugged and steep mountain was naturally no problem for Jingtian and Jiuxiao.
"Jingtian, you see these trees are a little special."
A distance down, Jiuxiao suddenly stood in front of a twisted and short tree and called Jingtian.
Jingtian also saw this kind of tree, but he didn't pay attention to it at first. After all, there were too many plants in Shennong Mountain that he didn't recognize.
After hearing what Jiuxiao said, Jingtian carefully observed the tree.
It should be a fruit tree, but there are no fruits on the tree at this time, and even the leaves are only a few leaves, as if it is close to death.
The more Jingtian looked at it, the more he realized something was wrong. There was a faint scent emanating from the tree.
"This is... the kind of fruit tree used to brew Monkey Spirit Wine!!" Jingtian suddenly reacted.
The scent from the tree was very faint, but after careful identification, Jingtian was sure.
Jiuxiao nodded, but then felt a little regretful, as the tree was obviously going to die.
Jingtian's eyebrows twitched. This tree was definitely a spiritual plant, otherwise it would not be possible to produce that kind of fruit.
Looking around, I soon discovered that there were still a lot of these trees, sparsely extending all the way down the mountain. The further down the mountain I went, the more severely withered the trees became.
"Now that spiritual energy has revived, other plants and spiritual medicines are becoming more and more luxuriant. Why is this tree like this? Is it sick?" Jingtian looked at the fruit tree with a frown.
Jingtian felt sorry for these trees and was eager to find out the reason.
Unfortunately, he had a letter left by a miracle doctor, and his medical skills were absolutely good. He could even try to treat humans and spiritual beasts, but he was really powerless when it came to plants.
Jiuxiao had no choice.
Suddenly Jingtian's eyes lit up, and he pulled out a fruit tree and put it into the dimensional space, letting the wood demon study it. It was definitely an expert in this field.
After doing this, Jing Tiancai and Jiuxiao continued to search for the fruit monkey downwards.
This kind of fruit tree basically proves that fruit monkeys must live nearby.
However, what made Jingtian feel that he had miscalculated was that he and Jiuxiao went all the way to the foot of the mountain and even searched a certain distance in radius, but they did not find any trace of a monkey.
Soon, the two noticed more strange problems. All the plants on the mountain were sick, but they were fine once they got down the mountain, and the surrounding plants were still full of vitality.
Another strange thing is that the animals that could be seen occasionally along the way disappeared in this area, and not even a flying bird could be seen.
This animal-free area is centered on the huge Monkey King Mountain and spreads out for about fifty kilometers.
"Strange, there is definitely something strange here . The problem must be on this mountain. Let's search carefully again. I will call Ao Shui out as well!"
Jingtian was sure that there was something wrong here, so he decided to search the mountain again carefully and also summoned Aoshui, who had a stronger perception.
Of course Jingtian also thought of releasing the Ares, but this idea was quickly abandoned. It was not absolutely necessary, and Jingtian was not willing to always rely on the Ares.
After Ao Shui came out and saw that there was nothing unusual, he felt relieved and then learned about the current situation.
After listening to Jingtian's introduction, Ao Shui nodded, and went up the mountain again with Jingtian Jiuxiao to search carefully.
Ao Shui's perception range is as wide as five kilometers, which means he can basically include the entire Monkey King Mountain within his perception range.
However, Ao Shui did not see the monkey at first.
"Sir, there is something wrong with this mountain. There is a special smell emanating from the mountain."
When Ao Shui reached halfway up the mountain, he suddenly spoke to Jingtian.
"Special aura? Why don't I feel it?"
Jingtian was stunned. He and Jiuxiao studied it for a long time but still couldn't find anything.
"Because it's very faint, and it's the same in the entire environment, it would be hard to spot if you don't compare it carefully with other places." Ao Shui said with certainty.
I have to say that beings who have lived for tens of thousands of years are different, with rich experience and delicate thoughts.
"Is it emitted from the mountain?" Jingtian asked again.
"That's right. It's a poisonous smell that caused all the spiritual trees on the mountain to wither. It also affected the surrounding mountains and forests. Other animals dared not approach." Ao Shui said with certainty.
"Poisonous? Then can we... wait a moment." Jingtian raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, when suddenly he heard the wood demon's voice asking for instructions in his consciousness.
As a slave, if you want to contact someone for something, you must ask for permission first.
Jingtian's consciousness directly entered the dimensional space and came to the location of the wood monster. The message from the wood monster must have been a discovery in its research on the fruit tree.
"No need to be so polite. What's going on?" As soon as Jingtian's consciousness appeared, the wood demon was about to salute, but was stopped by Jingtian directly.
"Yes, Master. This tree is poisoned."
The wood demon also felt that Jingtian didn't want to waste time, so he simply told him his discovery.
"Sure enough, Ao Shui is right."
Jingtian raised his eyebrows and then asked, "Do you have a way to detoxify this fruit tree? Can you keep it growing and bearing fruit?"
"This... I, your little slave, am useless and I don't know how to detoxify the tree. But if you put it here and water it with spiritual energy, it should recover in a few years. I can guarantee that it will not die." The wood demon said with a hint of helplessness.
Jingtian frowned. How many years? He didn't have the patience to wait for a few years. The wood demon couldn't detoxify, but he could.
"Then can you be sure what kind of poison it is?" Jingtian asked again.
"Hmm...it seems to be snake venom. I'm not absolutely sure, but it is definitely not a plant toxin. Otherwise, I, your little servant, would have a way to deal with it." The wood demon said.
Jingtian pondered for a moment, then took out a small bottle of liquid and handed it to Mu Yao, saying, "Try to see if this can help detoxify you, and report back to me later when I come back."
After Jingtian finished explaining, his consciousness left the space.
