呜呜！
木制围墙上的守卫者吹响号角，城墙外面的虚空中闪亮出一阵光芒涌动，那是一个巨大的法术蛋罩，也是高级术士建立起来的保护机制，类式于傅小蛙曾经接触过的宝塔，只不过这个法术罩更庞大，保护起空间通道不会有魔物传输回去。
“晶壁开启，我们动身！”熟知这里流程的孙文超道。
“好，收早工，还赶得上晚餐时间烤鸡翅！”张强盛搓搓手道。
众多的队伍开始出发，今天阳光明媚，是个历练的好天气。
有几个院生小队，还随行着院师带领，所朝的方向是深入金鸡山的北方。薛凌香所跟随的院士小组，也是那个方向，这是一个让人羡慕的方向，只不过充满危险，让很多小组望而却步。大多数的人还是选择西方，南方这些比较简单一点的区域。
魔物，其实在大息王朝非常稀有，像是在白云山这样异宝存在的地方，还有可能催生一点。要知道，这是一个充满天地之气的世界，不止是人类可以领悟，就连花花草草都可以在吸收成为灵药。那么动物在这样天地之气的浸下，经常采食山上生长的灵药，身体也变得奇异，进化速度也比平时见到的动物快上数万倍，变得更强壮也更危险。
金鸡山的名字，并不是因为这里的鸡多，而是其主峰形如报晓的雄鸡而得名。具说越往金鸡山群峰的深处，天地之气越是浓烈。里面的危险与异宝也越多。
在这样的自然环境，能收取的也就是灵药。异兽皮骨，矿石。去海底遗迹这些地方，就能接触到人工物品的痕迹。
众多的小组走出要塞之后，便分散向四周而去，这些地方经过长时间的探索，资源依然丰富，异兽会不断生长，灵药也会不断生长。地下矿藏也采之不尽。
一般到这里来的小组，都是为这些东西，矿所含的天地之气可以炼法宝，给术士的玩意提供动力，异兽身上的材料可以给术士制作各种东西，灵药用来制丹。
金鸡山，景色独好。群山连绵不绝往远处展去。像是初冬的季节，地上有一点溥雪，踩在上面咯滋作响。傅小蛙一直在皇城，好久没回归野外，感觉特别好。呼吸的空气有些清冷，四周是台原。金鸡山非常大。这么多队的小组分散开，基本上都不可能遇到。
孙文超等人自有熟悉的地方，他们来到山群边缘就停落下来。
“再前面，就是金鸡山区，非常危险。我们不进去，就在山区边缘找寻一些矿石灵药。傅小蛙这里很安全，一般的异兽都不是很强，你做为一个院生，应该完全能够应付，你在四周留意一下，这里有很多雪鸡，烤鸡的上选品种！”
“哦！”傅小蛙点点头，接受安排。
“你就在这一带，记得不要乱跑太远，我们会分散去收集，最后在这里集中，你要是跑远了，我们可是找不着你！”孙文超交待道。
张强盛咧嘴笑道：“找不着就找不着憋，让他在这里喂狼好了！”
“知道了，你们去！”
李清风也强加交待道：“千万记得，不可跑太远，这里非常安全，没有异兽，就算偶尔有一两只，也是初级兽，连院徒都可以解决！”
“别叨了，你们快去采集，一路来我也看到些人参灵芝什么的，这里应该不少！”
几个人也只是笑笑，在这个地方人参灵芝就跟草一样，没什么奇稀的，这家伙还当成宝。不过他们也不打算说，让他有些事情做做就好。
“重要的是雪鸡，千万可别忘了，还有万一见到异兽不要怕，长得很吓人，其实就是个瓜菜，三两下就宰掉了！”
“噢噢，好好！”
在这些人交待安妥之后，就分散离去，因为采集不是冒险，分散而行收获更多。同时他们也知道附近这一带能遇见的异兽，都是在单人可以解决的范围，相当来说很安全。
在孙文超等人离开之后，傅小蛙轻松下来，长吐出一口气。望望四周，山峦边缘，景色秀丽，让人心旷神怡。
他摸摸旁边的树干，真实感传来，入手粗糙，还有一种樟木的香味。
这着着实实的是来到十数万里之外，让人想想就觉得很兴奋，这算是他出过最远的一次远门。
傅小蛙漫步在这十数万里之外的地方，感受着异域风情，这里的植物跟树种就已经跟大息王朝的不一样，像一些杂草类的植物，在这里长得却比树高。
正如同孙文超等人所说那样，这里的雪鸡果然暴多，一身雪白，扭动着肥屁股在林子里奔跑寻食。
咯咯咯咯！！！
傅小蛙追赶着一只重达十数斤的大雪鸡，大雪鸡没命地跑着，还没三两下，就被傅小蛙抓住。傅小蛙满意地将雪鸡装进百宝囊，里面装的冰块，可以保鲜很久。
（拖欠半章，一下子补上！）
