Chapter 131 Bai Ze wakes up
"Na, try it and see if it's spicy!"
Bai Chen picked up Zhuzhu from his tail and immediately turned into a human form. He asked anxiously, just wanting to quickly confirm whether this sea water was one of the five flavors.
Mona pressed her fingers on the wet catkins, then put her hand into her mouth and savored the flavor with the tip of her tongue.
"Yes, it's spicy, very good!"
Mona cried with joy. She had gathered four of the five flavors of divine water, except for the bitter tears.
"Everyone has worked hard. Return to the East Continent immediately!"
Mona squeezed the water out of the Xuxu flower, then used a ceramic bottle to collect the sea water, and couldn't stop smiling.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. Then Longsha stepped forward and asked:
"Mona, we've only collected seawater so far. The other four kinds of sacred water are still missing. You're so anxious to return to the East Continent. Do you have any plans? Also, Long Ying was so anxious to leave here, he must have been seriously injured. We should find him first, that's the best strategy!"
"Well, don't worry. We've found Long Ying, and he's in a safe place now. I have my reasons for rushing back to Dongda Road. Just listen to me, I won't explain everything here."
Mona rolled her eyes at everyone, unable to suppress a small chuckle in her heart. Soon, the Sea Demon would be separated and Brother Ying would be rescued!
"Bai Chen, take the others and protect the little cub. Okay. Now, set off immediately!"
All the beastmen, each holding a cub, followed Mona to the outskirts of the Lost Land.
Longsha felt that he was asking for trouble, so he touched the tip of his nose with his hand, shrugged, and followed closely behind. Then he bumped Baichen with his shoulder:
"Hey, brother. Your Mona? Has she always been like this? How could that aloof Long Ying stand it?"
"Get away from me. Our Na has always been a good person. If you continue to slander her, be careful that everyone will beat you up!"
"Tsk. As if everyone doesn't have a female. What are you showing off for? I don't want to be in a relationship either. If I wanted to, I could have used a female to circle around your Eastern Continent!"
"Hey there! Then why don't you find one? Don't brag in front of us who have partners! That cow is even blown into a flying beast! Hahahaha...!"
Jin Jue once again teased Long Sha with his unconventional manner. The group laughed and joked as they reached the poisonous fog at the edge of Lost.
"Everyone, stop for a moment. The poisonous fog here has changed. Let's eat a fruit first."
Bai Chen took out a few transparent crystal fruits from his animal hide bag and distributed them to everyone. Long Sha also got one.
"What kind of spiritual fruit is this? The skin is so thin that you can see the juice inside!"
Longsha weighed the fruit up and down, but no one paid any attention to him. Well, he had just made himself look bad again! Seeing that everyone was enjoying the fruit, he took a nibble. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he finished it in a few bites, not forgetting to lick his fingers!
After eating the crystal fruit, everyone felt their whole body became smoother and more comfortable.
"This poisonous fog is getting thicker and thicker. Everyone should tie their wrists with dragon tendons!"
Mona tied up the dragon tendons and passed them down! She repeatedly reminded him,
"The poisonous fog here is very strong. Prevent everyone from getting separated. Everyone, get closer and follow closely. Cover your mouths and noses with animal skins!"
After a while, everyone walked out of the poisonous fog forest and returned to the place where Longying was first injured.
"Finally out! I'm exhausted after all this day's hard work. Let's sit down and rest for a while."
Mona pounded her feet, looking exhausted!
"Na, take some Green Crystal first to replenish your energy. Everyone has worked hard, so let's take a break now. Bixi, Wushuang, go see if there's anything edible nearby."
"Oh, I miss Bai Ze so much. When he was here, he was the overlord here. He knew where there were wild animals, water, and aquatic products."
Jin Jue started again, Chi Yan also put down the cute cub and asked Mona:
"Oh, Na. Bai Ze, how's it going?"
"Don't worry, he's recovering well. When we get to East Road, he'll show up naturally and give everyone a big gift!" After hearing what Mona said, everyone sat down and rested with peace of mind.
Soon, Bixi and Wushuang found some wild fruits.
"Sorry, Na! This is Bai Ze's territory. There are no wild animals here, only some wild fruits!"
"It's okay. You won't starve to death even if you skip a meal or two. After everyone has a simple meal, we'll continue on our way."
Mona gestured to Bixi to share the wild fruit. They ate as they walked eastward, where the terrain gradually flattened and widened. In the distance, a shimmering surface could be seen, perhaps reflecting a body of water.
"Look, it's water!" Jin Jue pointed ahead excitedly.
The group quickened their pace and arrived at the lake. The water was crystal clear, and fish were frolicking in it. Bixi dove into the lake.
"Haha, I can have an extra meal tonight!" Chi Yan showed a look of joy.
At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of the lake, and a huge turtle's back appeared faintly.
"Tourmaline! Be careful," Mona said in horror.
Tourmaline slowly surfaced and swam towards the crowd. Behind him followed a big turtle, which was carrying some packages on its back.
"It seems that Tourmaline has brought us gifts." Mona said with a smile.
Everyone stepped forward, took the package from the turtle's back, opened it, and found various foods and replacement animal skins inside.
"Tourmaline, well done!" everyone said in unison.
"Nothing much. I just felt dusty and went downstairs to take a nice shower. I didn't expect to run into this fearless guy!"
"You robbed everyone of their belongings?"
"No, we just took what we needed. I'm not that domineering and would rob him of all his property. After all, Uncle Turtle also has to make a living. I'm a good person and I'll leave some space for us so we can meet again in the future! Isn't that right?"
Uncle Turtle was busy today, and he just wanted to get away from these guys as soon as possible. They robbed his property and acted like robbers, yet they still spoke so righteously.
As night fell, everyone lit a bonfire by the lake, grilled fish, and enjoyed this rare quiet time.
Mona suddenly sensed the system's call:
"Host, Bai Ze is awake, get him out quickly!"
Mona stood up with a smile, walked to the lake, turned her back to everyone, and quietly released Bai Ze.
"Bai Ze, you're okay, that's great!"
"Mom, I'm fine now. Put me in the lake and soak. I stink all over. I need to wash myself properly!"
"Okay, there are turtles in the water, be careful!"
After Mona put Bai Ze into the water, she returned to the campfire. At this time, Jin Jue looked up at the starry sky and said with emotion:
"I really hope Long Ying and Bai Ze can recover soon and join us on this adventure."
Chi Yan patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, they will be fine."
At this moment, a ray of light suddenly flashed across the lake. Everyone looked closely and saw Bai Ze stepping out from the lake, his body emitting a dazzling light.
"White Pond!"
Everyone cheered in surprise. Bai Ze walked in front of them with a smile, his eyes full of power.
"Thank you for your care during this time, mother. I have fully recovered."
He took out a crystal clear bead from his arms and handed it to Mona:
"This is a gift I give to everyone. It contains powerful spiritual power that can help us in our upcoming journey of trials."
"Did you just dig this out from the river?" Mona asked Bai Ze with a smile.
"Well, I listened to the voices of underwater animals while taking a bath, and unexpectedly found this spiritual power bead!"
Mona took the bead gratefully and put it away.
"Have you all finished eating? Let's get some rest, we have to travel tomorrow!"
