As Xiao Feng and his team continued to go deeper into the Monster Mountain Range, the frequency with which they encountered monsters increased a lot.
Under the joint siege of dozens of mercenaries, although most of the monsters were killed instantly, some unlucky mercenaries were still injured by the sudden attacks of the monsters.
For example, two mercenaries walking in front were bitten by red ice snakes hiding on the branches.
The red ice snake is a relatively common first-level magical beast with ice attribute and cold poison in its body.
If a person bitten by a red ice snake does not receive treatment within half a day, the cold poison will freeze the blood in the body and cause death.
After everyone joined forces to kill the two red ice snakes, the two unlucky guys who were bitten by the red ice snakes were promptly sent to the herb-collecting team and handed over to the Little Medical Fairy to treat them personally.
But what surprised everyone was that just when the Little Medical Fairy was about to remove the cold poison from the two mercenaries, Xiao Feng suddenly came over, took out two first-grade detoxification pills, and stuffed them into the mouths of the two mercenaries.
Although the first-grade detoxification pill is not a particularly precious pill, it can be sold for hundreds of gold coins on the market.
Under normal circumstances, no one would be stupid enough to give such a precious pill to a stranger for free.
But when everyone saw with their own eyes that the two mercenaries who were poisoned by the cold, after taking the first-grade detoxification pills given by Xiao Feng, looked full of energy, they had to admit that there really was such a fool who was willing to sacrifice himself for others!
Originally, Mu Li was a little worried. Was Xiao Feng pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger?
As a result, seeing Xiao Feng's soft-heartedness, Mu Li immediately relaxed his vigilance.
"Are you stupid? I really admire you. Don't you know that wealth should not be exposed?"
Even Xiao Yixian was defeated by Xiao Feng's naivety. She secretly kicked him and reminded him in a weak voice: "I'm telling you~ Before we return to Qingshan Town, you'd better not leave my side, otherwise I can't protect you."
If Xiao Feng was a selfish villain, Xiao Yixian would definitely not risk offending the Wolf Head Mercenary Group to remind him.
Unfortunately, Xiao Feng is a pushover. Such people are already endangered species. Xiao Yixiang really couldn't bear to see him being cheated to death.
"…"
Hearing what Little Medical Fairy said, Xiao Feng was stunned at first, then nodded calmly.
In fact, Xiao Feng fed the two unlucky guys the detoxification pills not out of kindness, but to earn merit.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!
Just now, after Xiao Feng cured the two mercenaries of the cold poison, his merit points increased by more than a hundred points.
Xiao Feng felt that it was a good deal to exchange detoxification pills worth hundreds of gold coins for hundreds of merit points.
As for the fact that Xiao Yixiang and the others thought he was a naive and kind-hearted goody-goody, Xiao Feng could only say that it was a beautiful misunderstanding.
After traveling through the Monster Mountain Range for several hours, Xiao Feng and his companions finally arrived at the herb-collecting area designated by Wanyaozhai. During this time, more than a dozen mercenaries were attacked by monsters and suffered some injuries.
Whenever he saw someone injured, Xiao Feng would immediately offer healing medicine and detoxification pills, and he also earned hundreds of merit points.
Everyone didn't know that Xiao Feng was trying to earn merit, they just thought he was a kind-hearted person who would sacrifice himself for others.
At the beginning, most of the mercenaries were dismissive of Xiao Feng, thinking that a goody-goody like him was too naive and would not survive long in the Warcraft Mountains.
However, as more and more mercenaries were cured by Xiao Feng, everyone's attitude towards him gradually changed.
Except for a few mercenaries who were cold-hearted by nature, most of the mercenaries who were rescued by Xiao Feng were very grateful to him, but at the same time they felt ashamed of themselves for having the idea of killing people for treasure.
Although those mercenaries who had not been treated by Xiao Feng still thought that he was a hopeless goody-goody, they couldn't help but feel some respect for him.
After all, a goody-goody like Xiao Feng is the good teammate that every mercenary dreams of.
Only Mu Li's hatred for Xiao Feng is deepening with the passage of time.
Because in Mu Li's eyes, Xiao Feng has already become his possession, so Xiao Feng's treasure is his treasure.
Whenever Xiao Feng took out healing medicine and detoxification pills to treat the injured mercenaries, Mu Li felt that he was wasting his money and felt heartbroken!
If it weren't for the Xiao family behind Xiao Feng, and it was not easy to kill him in public, Mu Li really wanted to kill this prodigal right now.
That's all my money!
My money!
"Okay, we have arrived at the herb-collecting area. Everyone can take a rest first. Only after a rest will you have the strength to collect herbs~"
The manager of Wanyaozhai took the herb-collecting team to rest for about ten minutes, and then took Xiao Yixian and the others to collect herbs.
The mercenaries responsible for protecting the herb-picking team were divided into two groups, some to patrol and guard the surroundings, while others set up tents on the spot.
It is already noon, and by the time the people from Wanyaozhai finish picking herbs, it will probably be dark.
The Warcraft Mountains will be more dangerous at night, and traveling overnight is not a smart choice. It is better to rest where you are for one night and then set off back to Qingshan Town tomorrow morning.
In order to prevent Xiao Feng from being killed by someone, Xiao Yixian deliberately asked him to help her collect herbs under the pretext of keeping him by her side.
Looking at Xiao Feng who was inseparable from Xiao Yixiang, Mu Li could not help but frown. He had to find a way to separate the two, otherwise it would be inconvenient for him to kill people and steal the treasure.
Time passed slowly, the sky gradually darkened, and the entire Warcraft Mountain Range fell into darkness.
The people in Wanyaozhai had finished picking herbs, and they began to gather in groups of three or five, sitting around the campfire to eat dinner.
"Miss, the rice balls are ready."
The maid who was in charge of serving Little Medical Fairy simply heated up the meat-stuffed rice ball she carried with her and handed it to her with a respectful look on her face.
After receiving the two meat-stuffed rice balls from the maid, Xiao Yixian directly handed one of the meat-stuffed rice balls to Xiao Feng and said with a smile: "You have been busy collecting herbs for me for half a day. I will treat you to a rice ball."
"Aren't you too stingy?"
Xiao Feng pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "You just sent me away with a rice ball?"
"Don't underestimate this rice ball. I made it myself. The rice inside is steamed with soft, sweet and fragrant purple crystal rice, and the meat filling is made from the best Warcraft pork belly. It's fatty but not greasy and very delicious."
"Yeah?"
Hearing this, Xiao Feng smiled and said, "Then I'd better try your cooking skills."
After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he peeled off the leaves wrapping the meat-stuffed rice ball, opened his mouth and took a big bite.
"Mmm~ delicious!"
Feeling the aroma of rice and meat bursting in his mouth, Xiao Feng felt that the more he chewed, the more delicious it became, and nodded with satisfaction.
