Zhang Yun looked at the manuscript of "Secrets of the World of Immortal Cultivation" and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's really a mixture of love and hate!"
What I love is that it allows me to peek into the knowledge of the world of immortality, learn unknown formulas, and thus practice unparalleled martial arts;
What I hate is: I had too much hope in cultivating immortality and the nameless formula, and later I just thought it was just a fairy tale!
So he kept this book on the shelf and put it in the corner of the study as a collection.
It wasn't until he discovered the "Purple Flame Orchid" and some poisonous insects and beasts during this trip to the Emperor's Pit that he became interested in this book again, and it also sparked his hope of cultivating immortality again! "Secrets of the World of Immortal Cultivation"
-The manuscript can finally be seen again!
Zhang Yun first turned to the page at the back that introduced immortal treasures, immortal materials, spiritual fruits, and spiritual objects, and quickly found an introduction to "Purple Flame Orchid":
"Purple Flame Orchid" is an orchid fairy grass; it likes shade and generally grows thousands of meters below the surface;
Once it blooms every ten thousand years, it will bloom on a full moon night, and the flowers will be in the shape of flames. The first time they bloom, the flowers will be a deep red flame. Each time they bloom after that, the color of the flowers will gradually change from red to purple, until fifty thousand years later,
The color of the flowers will turn pure purple;
The medicinal effect of this flower is mainly to heal and detoxify, and secondly to improve physical fitness and increase longevity. It is said that as long as the soul is not dispersed and the limbs are basically healthy, it can be revived, and it can even regenerate human flesh and bones, and the limbs can be reborn. It is a healing medicine that is coveted in the world of immortality.
!
This flower can detoxify all kinds of poisons. In addition to several fatal poisons in the legends of the immortal world, it can also detoxify other animal and plant poisons;
Combining this flower with several ten thousand-year-old herbs and using it as medicine for a long time can improve the body's physical condition, activate cell functions, and thus increase the lifespan of the human body. A mortal's lifespan will generally increase by eight to ten years depending on his or her physical condition.
This flower is used in the world of immortality for healing and detoxification, and few people would use it to increase longevity at the expense of the essentials!
This flower is combined with ten thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old Poria cocos...refined over slow fire for sixty-six and thirty-six days...it is best to refine it into an elixir and take it directly, or you can take it directly.
"Holy medicine for healing... cures all poisons... has a lifespan of eight to ten years!" He couldn't help but be so happy that he started dancing!
No matter how mature Zhang Yun's mind is, he is still just a child of just over nine years old after all!
After regaining his composure, he continued to look down. Suddenly a name caught his attention:
Yubinglong Yanguo: mostly grows in the ten thousand-year cold pond. It is moistened by the cold for a long time and matures for ten thousand years. When mature, the petals will be ru white, and the fruit is the size of a walnut, and it is so bright...
Seeing this, Zhang Yun couldn't help but exclaimed: "Could it be it?"
A picture emerged in my mind: Beside the cold pool... red fruits... ice monsters... golden giant eagles... transparent beads...
Suppressing the surprise in my heart, I continued to look down:
Although the Ice-Dragon Flame Fruit is grown in the cold pond, it is of fire nature. Before the fruit matures, it is highly poisonous and there is no cure for it if eaten by accident. It is also often accompanied by alien animals with cold attributes. After the fruit matures, it contains rich
With the fire-attribute spiritual power, monks using the Fire Spirit Root can save more than ten years of hard work, and ordinary people can get rid of all stubborn diseases by taking it...
Seeing this, Zhang Yun breathed a long sigh of relief: "It seems that the spiritual fruit I picked by the cold pool when I was four years old is undoubtedly the Ice-Drying Dragon Flame Fruit. It is also because it cured my grandfather's disease. Over the past few years,
The doubts in my heart are finally solved!”
"But why did I, who was only four years old at the time, believe that this fruit could cure my grandfather's disease?" Zhang Yun couldn't help but frowned again, and after a moment he suddenly smiled bitterly: "When I was a child, I was always a witch in the eyes of the villagers.
Little monster, it’s no wonder…”
After he memorized the forms and medicinal effects of dozens of other immortal treasures, immortal materials, spiritual fruits, and spiritual objects in his mind, he turned the brocade book to the part about strange beasts.
I couldn't help but think: "What exactly is the 'monster' guarding the 'Purple Flame Orchid'? I hope I can find some clues from this book!" Then I read it carefully.
……*……*……
"Jiuyou Gopher": It likes shade and mostly lives underground or on cliffs. It lives in groups and has strong reproductive ability. It mainly feeds on rocks and minerals.
The adult body is as big as a calf, extremely intelligent, moves as fast as the wind, and has teeth as hard as steel...
Seeing this, Zhang Yun nodded secretly. The giant rats he saw in the "Emperor's Pit" should undoubtedly be the "Nine Nether Rats"!
……*……*……
"Human-Faced Demon Spider": It likes shade and mostly lives in deep mountains and old forests or on cliffs. It lives alone or in pairs and uses spider silk to catch various small animals for food.
The adult body is huge. When born, there is a figure similar to the outline of a human face on the abdomen, which gradually becomes clearer as it grows older.
It is said that the human-faced pattern on the abdomen of the "Human-Faced Demon Spider" can shape the facial features, and then it can transform into a human form!
It mainly relies on spider silk and sharp claws to attack. The spider silk contains extremely strong anesthetic toxins...
It seems that the giant spider that injured himself in the "Emperor's Pit" was the "Human-Faced Demon Spider", but the shape of its abdomen was vague at the time, so it should be underage. "If it becomes an adult, or it transforms...",
Zhang Yun couldn't help but feel the goosebumps on his body when he thought of this!
……*……*……
"Nine-Tailed Scorpion of the Heavenly King": It likes shade and mostly lives in the cracks of rocks or dark holes; it relies on the poisonous tail of the scorpion to prey on small animals; it is born with twelve "Heavenly King Spots" on its back, which are round and fluoresce at night;
When born, there is only one scorpion tail on its tail, which is extremely poisonous. As it grows older, the number of scorpion tails also increases, and there are nine tails in adulthood;
Mainly rely on scorpion tail attack, use poison to defeat the enemy...
It seems that the "Nine-Tailed Scorpion" that fought the monsters was still underage and could kill six monsters at the same time when the monsters swarmed up. The one at that time should have had three to six tails.
……*……*……
Continuing to read on, the spiritual birds and strange beasts described in the brocade book are all kinds of strange, which extremely tests people's imagination!
Zhang Yun sometimes exclaimed, sometimes sighed, and sometimes thought deeply!
In the process of reading, he found three kinds of strange beasts that resembled "monsters". It was not easy to make a judgment for a while. He could only confirm it when he saw the monster again. These three strange beasts were: the fire-eyed ghost cat, the golden cat, and the golden cat.
The beetle-eyed ant and the golden-backed beetle.
"Fire Eyes Nether Cat": A yin-loving, gregarious feline animal with a pair of eyes like golden flames, flexible speed, and tough skin. It is good at attacking with sharp claws and tearing the enemy apart...
"Golden-Eyed Iron-clad Ant": It likes shade, is a social animal like ants, has a pair of golden eyes, is fast and flexible, and has a carapace as hard as iron. It is good at defense and can injure enemies with the serrations on its legs...
"Golden-backed Tan Beetle": It is a yin-loving crustacean that lives in groups. Its appearance is similar to that of a dung beetle. There is a golden dot on each side of the carapace on its back. It has many legs and is fast and flexible, and can fly short distances. Its carapace is as hard as metal, and its head is
It carries a sharp thorn, which is extremely sharp. It can cut or sprint to attack the enemy, both offensively and defensively...
Zhang Yun looked at the characteristics of the three strange beasts he picked out several times, analyzing them silently in his heart:
The Fire-Eyed Nether Cat, the Golden-Eyed Armored Ant, and the Golden-backed Tanker. What these three strange beasts and monsters have in common is that they live in groups, have golden "eyes", and are agile in speed; the differences are:
The "Fire-Eyed Nether Cat" is good at attacking but weak in defense. Seeing the "Nine-Tailed Scorpion" being torn into pieces looks very similar to the tearing attack of the Fire-Eyed Nether Cat. It is just a group attack of the "Nine Nether Rats"
You can clearly hear the sound of teeth rubbing against metal. The "Fire-Eyed Nether Cat"'s fur and teeth will never make such a sound.
The "Golden-Eyed Iron Armored Ant" is good at defense rather than attack, and the armor vividly interprets the sound of metal. However, the book does not describe the attack method of the serrated teeth on its legs, so I am not sure.
The "Golden-backed Tankailang" is both offensive and defensive. The carapace's defense is not inferior to that of the "Golden-eyed Iron Armored Ant". Of course, it should also have a metallic texture. The sharp blade on its head can cut and stab. It is very similar to the one guarding the "Purple Flame Orchid".
"The monster next to you!"
But intuitively, he felt that the pair of golden dots on the monster were more like a pair of eyes, and he didn't feel that the monster had ever flown up. Maybe it was too far away and the vision was not accurate!
Or maybe Zhang Yun subconsciously rejects monsters as "golden-backed tanks"! Who wouldn't have a headache when encountering such a monster that is both offensive and defensive and can fly!
Since the identity of the monster cannot be determined, we need to make more preparations. As the saying goes: Be prepared!
Be sure to take into account all three possible strange beasts, as well as possible attacks from other monsters...
Zhang Yun did not meditate as usual tonight. He felt tired while lying on the bed and fell asleep naturally.
After sleeping until I woke up naturally, I opened my eyes and saw that it was already dawn outside the window. I got up and stretched myself, sighing secretly: "I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time!"
I turned around and opened the door to go outside to fetch water and wash up. After opening the door, I suddenly saw a group of people standing in the yard.
Suddenly I thought of what I had said yesterday about guiding the villagers to practice Qigong. I patted my head and said to myself: "Maybe I was too tired from reading yesterday and I forgot all about it!"
He hurriedly opened the door and walked out, saying apologetically: "Brothers, I'm sorry, I fell asleep and kept everyone waiting for a long time."
Everyone quickly smiled and shook their heads.
He didn't care so much anymore. He took a basin of water and wiped some water on his face. After drying his face, he walked into the crowd and taught everyone about their martial arts.
Among this group of people, there are only five people who need Zhang Yun's guidance. The fourth uncle arranged it yesterday. At the same time, the fourth uncle also arranged for ten people to observe.
After all, he doesn’t have many opportunities to give personal guidance, and Fourth Uncle doesn’t want to waste it, so he simply sends ten more people every day. Sometimes the problems that occur in others are also the areas that he needs to improve! You can also omit some repetitive things when giving guidance.
question.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yun couldn't help but smile knowingly: "It seems that Fourth Uncle really has good intentions!"
As soon as he thought of his fourth uncle, he came over, holding a half-person tall wooden box in his arms. The wooden box looked simple and old, and it looked like an old object at first glance.
The fourth uncle saw that he was instructing everyone on martial arts, so he did not interrupt him. After nodding, he walked into his cabin on his own with the small wooden box in his arms.
When I saw the box in my fourth uncle's arms, I couldn't help but feel happy, and I naturally guessed that what he was holding should be the "Gongshu Divine Crossbow".
There was still one last disciple waiting for advice. He pointed out a few shortcomings and then told him to go back to practice and let everyone disperse.
Zhang Yun walked into the cabin with anticipation, said hello to his fourth uncle, and had already glanced at the wooden box on the table.
All I saw was that the wooden box was three feet long and one foot wide. It was made of small-leaf red sandalwood. The outside was carved with extremely fine patterns. One look at the wooden box and you knew that the things inside were extraordinary and extremely precious!
When the fourth uncle saw his expression, he smiled slightly and said, "Yun'er, inside the box is the 'Gongshu Divine Crossbow'. Your grandma asked me to bring it over and hand it over to you!"
"She said: I'm sorry for you as a grandma. I haven't taken care of you since you were a child. I hope you don't hate her. You will be satisfied if you can recognize her as your grandma in the future!"
"She also said that she was wrong to be prejudiced against you before. She is getting old, and she hopes that you will visit her often during the New Year and holidays. She originally wanted to pass this 'Gongshu Divine Crossbow' to your father, but now you can give it to her if you need it.
I just want you to cherish it!"
After the fourth uncle finished speaking, he patted Zhang Yun on the shoulder.
After a pause, he then said: "Yun'er, there is another good news I want to tell you. The Xiao family has an ancestral sword called the 'Qilin sword'. It is said that it can cut gold and cut jade, but Mr. Xiao is very stubborn.
, and regard it as life, Fourth Uncle will try to find a way to see if he can borrow it for you."
Zhang Yun couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and thought to himself: "My fourth uncle not only sent the "Gongshu Divine Crossbow", but also brought such exciting good news. Today can be said to be a double happiness!"
He quickly said: "Fourth Uncle, let me figure out how to borrow the sword from Mr. Xiao. How dare you bother Fourth Uncle all the time!"
Zhang Heng smiled bitterly after hearing this and said: "Yun'er, when did you learn to be so glib? Let's do this! I'll go over and talk to the old man about borrowing the sword first. If we can't come to an agreement, you can think of a way!"
Seeing him nodding, he continued: "Yun'er, you'd better take a look at the 'Gongshu Divine Crossbow' first!"
In fact, Zhang Yun couldn't wait for a long time, and when he heard his fourth uncle talking about the "Kilin Sword", his attention was temporarily diverted.
At this moment, I immediately reached out and opened the wooden box, and saw four or five wooden structural parts placed in the wooden box. The wood was very hard, and I didn't know what kind of wood it was made of.
There are also three iron arrows placed horizontally at the bottom of the box. They are all dark and made entirely of fine iron. When measured with your hand, they are no more than no less than eight inches.
There was a piece of yellowed brocade underneath the iron arrow. I reached out and took out the brocade, and looked at it carefully. It turned out to be a crossbow arrow assembly diagram and instructions for use.
Zhang Yun quickly understood the principle: the internal structure of this divine crossbow is very complicated and cannot be disassembled and placed in its entirety. It is simply divided into several pieces.
It only took a moment to assemble, and a bulky thing made of several rectangular pieces of wood appeared in front of the two of them. The two of them looked at each other with doubts in their eyes: "This thing is really the 'Gongshu Divine Crossbow'"
?”
Looking at it with the same question, I saw that the main body of the "Gongshu Shennu" is a rectangular wooden block two inches square and two feet long. It is hollow in the middle and installed with precision wooden structural parts. There is a movable tail at the end.
The handle has a straight and small groove in the middle of the upper plane of the wooden cube for aiming;
The two wings are two curved pieces of wood one inch square and one foot long, about the thickness of a thumb. A non-metallic bow string passes through the wooden side of the main body and connects the tops of the two wings. It looks like the muscles of some kind of animal.
He grabbed a bow string that was about an inch long and pulled it up to both sides. He exerted a huge force of several thousand kilograms and spent a lot of effort to pull it open to a length of about one meter.
Unable to continue, he quickly let go of his hand.
I saw that the pulled bow string quickly returned to its original state, and I couldn't help but secretly thought: "What a magical bow string. It seems that it is not surprising that the iron arrows fired from it are powerful!"
Zhang Yun was surprised and couldn't help but continue to observe. Underneath the main body was a piece of wood stuck parallel to the bottom. It was five inches wide, one inch thick, one foot long. Looking close to the handle, there were nine round holes evenly distributed, which should be for loading iron arrows.
The quiver is tightly connected under the main body.
The main body and the quiver are two completely enclosed parts. Only the middle slot is connected. There are several gear-like parts that snap together. There is also a small wooden block protruding from the middle of the quiver and the handle. It should be used for launching.
The trigger was used.
Seeing this, Zhang Yun's doubts disappeared and he began to study the method of use based on the drawings.
