"There's no need to discuss. I'll team up with Shen Xiaobao !" Chu Jun said indifferently.

Ruan Fang had some intentions. He had thought that Chu Jun would compete with him for the same team as Zhao Yu, but he didn't expect that he would actually agree to team up with Shen Xiaobao . He was secretly delighted and said calmly, "Since Chu Jun proposed to team up with Xiaobao himself, then it's settled. We'll set off tomorrow morning and return to the camp later."

In this place, Ruan Fang was nominally everyone's senior brother, and his words still had a kind of authority. Zhao Yu glanced at Chu Jun and nodded, "Alright, everyone, pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, send out a signal!"

After discussing, everyone rested and sat down.

After a night of silence, that strange snake had never appeared again, and it was safe until dawn. When Chu Jun opened his eyes, he happened to meet Zhao Yushui's blurry eyes. Obviously, he had been staring at him for a while. Chu Jun grinned, but Zhao Yu turned around and gave him the back of his head. Chu Jun was slightly stunned for a moment before he thought to himself, "Is Senior Sister Zhao angry about last night's grouping?"

Originally, Chu Jun intended to give the thunderfluorite to Zhao Yu directly, but after thinking about it, he still felt that he would give her a surprise after returning this time, so he never mentioned that he had the thunderfluorite . Since Ruan Fang was competing with Zhao Yu, then let him team up. In any case, he had thunderfluorite in his hands.

"Tie Shi, you guys guard the camp. If there's any danger, send out a signal!" Zhao Yu handed a signal to Tie Shi.

Xiaoxiao pulled Chu Jun's hand and looked at him hopefully. She actually wanted to follow him. Chu Jun smiled and said, "Don't look at me. I really can't bring you with me this time!"

Xiaoxiao's face revealed a look of disappointment, but she still obediently nodded and walked back to Tie Shi's side.

" Chu Jun , what did you give Xiaoxiao?" Ning Yun said unhappily.

Chu Jun ignored her and let out his flying mount to jump up. Shen Xiaobao had one leg and grinned as he jumped onto the back of the crane. He said hehe, "Chu Jun and I might not lose to you in three legs. We might not be able to find Lei Yingshi!"

Chu Jun couldn't help but sweat. What two people with three legs sounded extremely awkward!

The trio left the valley on their flying mounts and quickly disappeared from the mountain peaks. Tie Shi touched Xiaoxiao's withered hair and suddenly said, "Xiaoxiao, do you think Big Brother Chu Jun is nice?"

The little fellow nodded his head forcefully. His eyes turned into two crescent moons and he said, "Good, I like it!"

Tie Shi squatted down and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why don't we follow Big Brother Chu Jun in the future?"

The little fellow was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head and threw himself into Tie Shi's embrace. He hugged his neck tightly and said, "I want father!" Tears flashed in his eyes!

Back then, Tie Shi had picked up Xiao Xiao who had suffered a head injury near the Dead Soul Ghost Forest. He had always treated her like his own daughter. In fact, he had even spent all of his savings to treat her illness. Every day, he fought desperately to earn spirit beans. The two of them were dependent on each other and had established a deep relationship.

Although Tie Shi was extremely reluctant to part ways, he understood that he could not afford to raise Xiaoxiao by himself alone. Moreover, he only had one hand left now, and the days in the future would be even more difficult. To cure Xiaoxiao was even more foolish. Chu Jun , on the other hand, was completely capable of taking better care of Xiaoxiao. Moreover, he was kind-hearted. He was very relieved to hand Xiaoxiao over to Tie Shi. The most important point was that Xiaoxiao did not reject Chu Jun .

"Xiaoxiao, daddy is crippled now. I can't take good care of you anymore. Big brother Chu Jun has a good heart and is capable. You can rest assured to follow his daddy!" Tie Shi gently patted the back of the small family, the curtain hanging on his face and reluctance to part.

Xiaoxiao hugged Tie Shi's neck even tighter, tears flowing down her cheeks. She sniffed and said, "Take care of Daddy!"

Seeing this, Qi Qin and Liu Liu's eyes were a little wet. They advised, "Big Brother Tie Shi, since Little Xiao is unwilling, then forget it. Moreover, Senior Brother Chu may not agree to take care of Little Xiao!"

Hearing this, Tie Shi also felt that it was reasonable. He sighed and nodded, "Alright, let's talk about this later!"

Divide

Chu Jun and Shen Xiaobao landed at the foot of Xue Lao Peak in the center of the Five Elders Peak. Shen Xiaobao found a mountain rock and sat down. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you brat, go up the mountain to find the ore yourself. I'll wait for you here!"

Chu Jun said speechlessly, "Wait here?"

Shen Xiaobao nodded his head as a matter of course and asked, "Please, I'm an injured man. Do you have the nerve to let me jump up the mountain to look for mines?"

"Then why don't you just stay in the camp?" Chu Jun couldn't help but laugh and cry.

Shen Xiaobao chuckled and said, "How can I be so shameless if Yours Truly doesn't exert a little bit of strength? Besides, if you find the Thunderfluorite, I'll be able to get some credit for it!"

Chu Jun couldn't help but speak as he turned around and walked towards Old Snow Peak. Shen Xiaobao loudly said, "Be careful when you walk. Don't fall off. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself to Senior Sister Zhao !"

"Hey hey, wait a moment!"

Chu Jun unhappily stopped, turned around, and said, "What have you said over and over again?"

"Aiyo, you really don't have the patience. Yours Truly is doing it for your own good!"

Chu Jun turned around and continued walking. As soon as he replied to him, he would definitely talk endlessly. Chu Jun had finally figured out his temperament.

"Remember to send out a signal if you are in danger. Yours Truly will immediately save you!"

"Well … this mountain peak mainly produces moonstones and Ice Drawing Stones. If you look carefully, there might be Profound Iron Stones!"

"Hey, fuck … running so fast, this daddy hasn't finished yet!" Shen Xiaobao looked at Chu Jun 's back that quickly disappeared from the mountain rocks and trees. He scolded resentfully. He glanced sideways at the gray crane that was standing beside him combing its feathers. He scolded again, "Damn it, what a beautiful fart! Combing it around all day, isn't it grey? It's ugly to the point of being deathly ugly!"

Gray Crane seemed to be used to Shen Xiaobao's scolding. After glancing at him, he continued to comb his feathers leisurely. Shen Xiaobao scolded again, "What are you looking at? You're still unconvinced when you say you're ugly. You comb that bird feather all day long, but you can't even get a girl. You're embarrassing Yours Truly!"

"Ah lao, is this person a fool?" A crisp child's voice suddenly sounded.

Shen Xiaobao was shocked and flew away. He saw an old man and a young man standing on a rock not far from him at some unknown time. The old woman bent down, her face wrinkled, her cheeks caved in, as if she had lost all her teeth. A cold aura was emitted from her body. Ordinary people would probably get sick if they were stared at by her pair of muddy eyes. The old woman held a grass-green cane in her hand. There was a small green snake wrapped around the cane, and the messenger could not swallow it. It was very unsightly. Beside the old woman stood an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. She wore two braids and a green skirt, revealing two white and tender thighs. Her small face was carved out of jade. It was extremely cute.

Shen Xiaobao 's grey crane trembled slightly as it crouched softly on the ground, its eyes filled with fear. Shen Xiaobao 's heart trembled. The sudden appearance of such a strange combination in the mountains was truly chilling.

"Fool, have you ever seen a seven or eight year old girl with a green crystal hanging around her neck?" The old woman suddenly opened her mouth and asked. That voice was like washing the bottom of a pot in the middle of the night. It was extremely ear-piercing and humiliating.

Shen Xiaobao felt the blood in his entire body freeze. He shook his head honestly and said, "Never seen it before!"

The old woman leaned on her walking stick and turned around without saying a word. The little girl in the short green skirt turned around and said to Shen Xiaobao with a grimace, "Fool, chat with the bird!"

Only when the two of them walked away did Shen Xiaobao let out a sigh of relief. He patted his chest and said, "His grandmother is scared to death. Where did the mountain spirit-water monster come from? I was scared to death!" "This chick is quite cute. If she gets older a few more years, I will definitely let the bird chat with you!"

The frightened Gray Crane also stood up and continued to comb its feathers. Hearing Shen Xiaobao mention "birds", it habitually responded with a glance. Shen Xiaobao curled his lips and said, "What the hell, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the bird in my crotch!"

Chu Jun followed the rugged mountain range and searched upwards. Occasionally, he would dig through the rocks with his Mysterious Iron Sword. Before coming out this time, Chu Jun had earnestly done his homework. He had memorized all the ores used to forge the sword in his heart. As long as he encountered them, he would definitely be able to recognize them.

The sun gradually rose. Chu Jun had been searching for nearly two hours, and he had obtained a moonstone and two Ice Drawing Stones. Refining a flying sword with moonstone would automatically shine at night. It had no practical use, but it was very popular with female immortal cultivators. Ice Drawing Stones could increase the affinity of magic treasures with ice attributes. They were suitable for cultivators of ice attribute techniques. Both stones belonged to the first-grade artifact forging materials, and their value was not high. Chu Jun's thunderfluorite was a third-grade material, and it was not marketed. If it was sold, it would be worth at least 50,000 to 60,000 spirit beans. If it was auctioned, it could fetch close to 100,000 spirit beans.

Chu Jun raised his head and looked at the sky. He discovered that it was already noon. The sun was shining directly, and the snow on the summit of Old Snow Peak reflected a dazzling light.

"Such a large mountain peak, I'm afraid we won't be able to search for it in ten or eight days!" Chu Jun said to himself.

At this moment, a large snow-white bird circled above the Old Snow Peak for a few rounds before landing on the summit. It seemed that there was still a person sitting on top of it. Due to the obstruction of the trees, Chu Jun could only vaguely see that the person seemed to be dressed in white.

Chu Jun continued to search the surrounding mountains and stones in a state of mind that one more matter was inferior to one less matter.

Sure enough, Chu Jun had not failed in his efforts. He had found a mystic iron ore, and a radius of more than ten meters was filled with naked mystic iron ore.

Chu Jun dug out a large piece of Xuan Iron Stone and put it into the Hundred Treasures Pouch. It should probably be enough to forge a Xuan Iron Sword.

The sun was setting in the west, and Chu Jun was satisfied with the fact that he was going down the mountain, preparing to search for another mountain peak tomorrow. At this moment, a clear bird cry came from the top of the mountain. A large snow-white bird soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye. The person on the bird's back seemed to look back, but because it was too far away, he could not see it clearly.

When Chu Jun returned to the foot of the mountain, he saw Shen Xiaobao lying lazily on the rocks and sleeping.

"I'm back. How's the harvest?" Shen Xiaobao did not wait for Chu Jun to approach before he sat up smartly and asked with a smile.

"Let's talk when we get back!" Chu Jun released his mount and the two of them returned to the camp one after the other.
