When I was supposed to be slaying the dragon, I accidentally started cultivating immortality - Chapter 172 Language Barrier and Herbal Medicine in Nibelung Roots

The teacher told Lu Mingfei since he was a child that it was very important to learn a foreign language. Now Lu Mingfei wants to go back to his childhood and pay high respect to the teacher’s foresight.

Although the teacher would never have imagined that what he needs now is another foreign language.

Facing the girl who was still standing not far away, making gestures with her hands and spitting out a series of words he didn’t understand, Lu Mingfei rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Language barrier…

Lu Mingfei sensed the girl’s aura when she started shooting arrows. Although he didn’t understand why there were creatures in the Nibelung roots, known as the “Kingdom of the Dead”, judging from the aura, the dragon’s blood in the girl’s body was The content was quite high and very unstable, almost as good as the Deadpool he had seen.

This can also be seen from the girl’s bright golden eyes and the fine cyan scales next to her cheeks. This is the first time he has seen a hybrid with dragon-like characteristics on his body, but still retains his human form and sanity.

Although the previous patriarch on Mount Aconcagua maintained his sanity in the human state, he could only change his state between a human and a pure deadpool. There was no such human appearance with some microdragon-like characteristics.

It stands to reason that Lu Mingfei should be extremely vigilant when faced with someone whose aura is as chaotic as Deadpool’s.

But as a Xuanzhao monk, Lu Mingfei had clearly predicted that the target of the arrow was the strange fish when the girl shot the arrow at it.

In other words, at least at that moment, the girl wanted to help him, so they were on the same side.

Although he couldn’t let down his guard against this girl whose aura was close to that of Deadpool just because of a short helping, he was not prepared to take action directly when the girl took the initiative to show kindness, so he still chose to negotiate with her.

And as expected, he couldn’t understand the girl’s language.

Of course, the girl obviously didn’t understand what he was talking about.

Although both people can speak, in terms of communication, they are no different from two deaf-mute people, or even worse than a deaf-mute person.

After all, deaf-mute people still use sign language to communicate, but the communication between Lu Mingfei and the girl can only use some messy gestures and guesswork.

The girl stood in front of Lu Mingfei and gestured, and Lu Mingfei looked at her – the rough linen clothes were obviously from ancient times, but it was not possible to tell which dynasty it was from. It could only be seen that the style was very ancient, and the outer mask was It is wearing animal skin, and there are fine scales under the hair of the animal skin. It is probably from Deadpool or a dragon subspecies.

After confirming that Lu Mingfei could not understand what she was saying, the girl took two steps sideways, then faced Lu Mingfei and pointed diagonally forward. Lu Mingfei focused part of his attention on the girl to prepare for her sneak attack. , while turning his head to look in the direction pointed by the girl.

What the girl was pointing to was the end of the cliff and waterfall behind him. There was a herb growing there. It was about a foot long. Its body was green, but there were thin and sparse gold and silver threads. It had dark purple flowers and petals like stems. The gold and silver threads are like leaves, but they are much denser.

This flower looks quite conspicuous. The bright sunshine shines on it. The stems and leaves are as green as jade. The gold and silver threads clinging to it seem to be real metal threads, shining brightly in the sun. Especially the threads are most densely distributed. The flowers even have a hazy halo.

Lu Mingfei was very sure that this herb had never existed on the cliff before. It was impossible for him not to notice such a dazzling plant growing at a high place. This was probably a herb that existed inside the Nibelung root.

The girl took two steps back, bent down and took out a rolled thick hemp rope from the grass and placed it on the ground where Lu Mingfei could see it.

Under Lu Mingfei’s puzzled gaze, she casually picked up a piece of grass from the ground, then pointed at the bundle of hemp rope on the ground, then at herself and Lu Mingfei, and finally at the herbs at the end of the road. .

Lu Mingfei roughly understood what she meant. She seemed to want to join hands with him to collect herbs on the cliff, and the bundle of rope seemed to be a tool.

Although he roughly guessed what the girl meant, Lu Mingfei was even more puzzled – why did she seem to trust him?

Although she did help him just now, it was at most a rescue in a critical moment. If he saw someone in danger and he had the ability to solve it without endangering himself, he would also help.

But saving people is one thing, and cooperation is another. This is not an online game team. How can you find someone to cooperate with as soon as you meet?

Seeing that Lu Mingfei didn’t respond, the girl pointed to the herb at the end of the head again, then pointed to the grass pulled out from the ground in her hand, split it in two in the middle, and then gently threw it into Lu Mingfei’s head.

Does this mean cutting the herbs in half when the matter is done?

Although there was a language barrier, the girl obviously had the expressive ability of an adult, which made communication between Lu Mingfei and her not difficult.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Mingfei nodded.

Although he didn’t know why the girl took the initiative to seek cooperation with him, he didn’t have any clues about how to get out now. If he could establish a good relationship with this girl from the Nibelungs, he might gain something unexpected.

After making up his mind, Lu Mingfei pointed at himself and the herbs on the cliff, pulled out a piece of grass from the ground, tore it in half, and threw one half to the girl.

What he meant was that he went up to pick the medicine, and then gave half of it to the girl, as a thank you to her for her previous help – even though he didn’t need help.

The girl waved her hands repeatedly and made a picking motion towards the war bow. Seeing that Lu Mingfei had no reaction, she walked over and picked up the war bow, and then took out a quiver made of bamboo strips from the dense grass behind her. The quiver revealed several wooden arrow shafts and an iron arrow shaft.

The girl took out a wooden shaft and a stone arrow, nocked the bow and shot an arrow at the lake behind Lu Mingfei. The arrow tore through the air and sank into the lake, causing large splashes of water. Then the lake churned more violently and could be vaguely penetrated. I saw some dark shadows on the water.

Lu Mingfei knew that the girl was reminding him that there was that kind of strange fish in the lake, but he had already noticed that there were other strange fish under the water when the previous strange fish burst out.

Condensing one’s breath is not a monopoly of monks. It is a skill that can be honed. Most carnivores will restrain their breath when hunting. This is developed during long periods of hunting in order not to disturb the prey. The same principle applies. , humans can do it too.

However, this technique that was discovered after all is not as effective as the breath concentration method specially summarized by the monks. The effect is still inferior. The key is that it is not stable enough, and the breath will leak out if there is a slight mood swing.

When Lu Mingfei first entered the Nibelungen, both the girl and the strange fish in the lake restrained their auras, and he was unable to notice it. However, when the strange fish that attacked him suddenly exploded, it affected other strange fish in the lake. This caused their aura to leak out a little, and although it quickly calmed down, it was still noticed by Lu Mingfei.

However, these strange fish are not a threat to him. He can crush these strange fish with his physical fitness alone, not to mention that he still has Qi and magic.

In a place like the Nibelung, Lu Mingfei had no intention of concealing his magic – if he dared to hide his clumsiness in such a crisis-ridden dragon nest, then he really didn’t know how to write the word “death”.

Waving to the girl, Lu Mingfei turned around and ran towards the waterfall on the opposite side of the lake under her anxious gaze. Then, under the shocked gaze of the girl, he stepped on the lake and ran elegantly.

Monk Xuanzhao is somewhat similar to the martial arts masters in martial arts novels in this world. With his cultivation and the blessing of Suzaku from the Four Directions, it is not difficult to walk on water for short distances.

As Lu Mingfei ran on the lake, several black shadows quickly appeared and expanded under the water. The girl shouted something to Lu Mingfei anxiously, and Lu Mingfei had already felt the approach of the strange underwater fish.

Then with a thought in his mind, the Zhi Ming Zhen Yue Xuan Zhong shrouded his body and turned into a vague bell-shaped energy. Ming Guang Yan spread from the bell-shaped energy and completely wrapped him in it. After suppressing part of the power, Ming Guang Yan’s The strong light is not very noticeable during the day, especially when there is dense forest blocking it.

As soon as the bright light flame came out, the lake surface under Lu Mingfei’s feet suddenly boiled and exploded. A large amount of water vapor erupted, turning into high-temperature steam within the temperature range of the bright light flame, and turning into diffuse water mist when exposed to the air outside the range. The golden light of Mingguangyan is a little more hazy.

Some of the black shadows under the water dived quickly, but there were still a few that rushed towards Lu Mingfei stubbornly, breaking through the boiling water layer with their fearless ferocity, and then entered the range of the bright light flame, and were captured by Lu Mingfei. The head was burned directly to ashes, and then the body with a blackened neck slowly sank into the water. The blue and black scales that had been scalded by the boiling water were scattered during the sinking process.

The girl on the shore rubbed her eyes vigorously, watching Lu Mingfei run to the edge of the cliff opposite, restraining the bright golden flames, and then clinging to the rock wall. He rose quickly, and he climbed up in just a few seconds. Yatou, then carefully observed the herbs, and picked them using a correct but not very skillful technique.

Just when the girl was wondering how he was going to come back if he couldn’t ignite the fire with the herbs, Lu Mingfei at the top of the cliff took two steps, jumped down, spread his arms, looked like a flying crane, and glided all the way down from the top of the cliff to the In front of the girl, he smiled and waved the herbs in his hand to her.

Girl: (⊙⊙)
