According to Zhong Ling, her prescription is miraculous in attracting poisonous insects and is much better than the Shennong Gang's prescription.
But one disadvantage is that the recipe is very complicated and requires very high requirements for medicinal materials.
Not only does it require some rare and precious herbs, but there are also special requirements for the year and place of production of the medicine, which is almost impossible.
Fortunately, there are many pharmacies and drug dealers in the Dali Imperial City. They pieced together everything here and there, but in the end, they were able to scrape it together bit by bit.
Originally, in order to save time, Meng Xiuyuan wanted Zhong Ling to write down the herbs one by one and he would buy them by himself.
But Zhong Ling, a kid with a childish personality, insisted on joining in the fun and wanted to go with Meng Xiuyuan. Meng Xiuyuan persuaded her, and she deliberately said that Meng Xiuyuan wanted to deny it and was unwilling to give her half of the powder, so she wanted to run away with the prescription.
Helpless, Meng Xiuyuan could only drag such a small burden around the city of Dali.
Zhong Ling jumped up and down behind Meng Xiuyuan, trying to get a look at whatever he was looking at in the market. It was like a puppy that had been kept at home for a long time and was suddenly let out for a walk.
Presumably, her life in the valley was too boring on weekdays, but now that she came out, she found everything she saw interesting.
After just such a long time, the little girl became familiar with Meng Xiuyuan. Behind Meng Xiuyuan, he was always shouting "Brother Meng" and "Brother Meng", dragging him around.
Meng Xiuyuan was helpless. Seeing her childish look, he couldn't push her too much. He had to buy her a lot of interesting gadgets and coaxed her to leave quickly. Finally, he bought all the medicines before dark.
together.
The two stayed in the inn for one night. When they left the city early the next morning, they found a secluded forest. Meng Xiuyuan took off the big bag on his back, took out the medicinal materials, and smiled at Zhong Ling:
"Miss Zhong, prepare the medicinal powder here.
Don’t worry, I won’t peek at your exclusive secret recipe. I’ll come back in half an hour.”
Meng Xiuyuan heard Zhong Ling say before that this prescription requires special methods to prepare, and the dosage of each medicinal ingredient must be very precise.
Therefore, in order not to take advantage of the little girl, Meng Xiuyuan turned around and left to avoid suspicion.
However, after hearing this, Zhong Ling hurriedly chased Meng Xiuyuan and reached out to stop him:
"Brother Meng, don't leave."
Meng Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this, and asked Zhong Ling in confusion:
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Zhong Ling's face was slightly red, and he said with some guilt:
"I'm sorry, Brother Meng, I lied to you..."
Meng Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this, frowned slightly, and asked Zhong Ling:
"Could it be that the prescription you mentioned for attracting poisons is fake?"
Zhong Ling quickly waved his hand and explained to Meng Xiuyuan:
"No, no. The prescription is real and I guarantee it will be effective.
Just yesterday, I was afraid that you wouldn't want to buy me these medicinal materials, so I didn't tell you something.
It's okay to leave these medicinal materials like this, but once they are mixed, their efficacy will quickly decay.
Therefore, it is most effective when it is deployed on the spot when it is used.
If I mix it for you now and you take it elsewhere and use it again, although it will still work, I'm afraid the effect will be much worse."
While Zhong Ling was talking, he kept looking down at his toes. Yuandudu had a red glow on his face, as if he was very embarrassed.
Meng Xiuyuan was a little helpless towards such a little girl, but according to her, even if this medicine lost part of its medicinal properties over time, it should still be more effective than the medicine from the Shennong Gang, so it was not a waste of effort.
Just when Meng Xiuyuan was about to open his mouth to comfort him, Zhong Ling suddenly said before him:
"Let's do this, Brother Meng.
Anyway, you mixed this medicine to catch some poison, so just take me with you.
I grew up with scorpions, centipedes, poisonous snakes and toads, and I am the best at dealing with them.
We will adjust the medicine when we get to the place, and the natural effect will be the best."
Meng Xiuyuan heard what Zhong Ling said, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that this was indeed a way. In all his three lives combined, he might not know as much about poisons as this little girl. With her help, it might be smoother.
However, after all, the matter was somewhat dangerous, so Meng Xiuyuan still asked Zhong Ling in advance:
"Miss Zhong, my purpose on this trip is to go to Wuliang Mountain to find a highly poisonous thing called 'Manggu Zhu Clam'.
I heard that this red clam is called the King of Poisons and is quite fierce.
If you want to go with me, I'm afraid it might be a little dangerous."
Zhong Ling was stunned when he heard this and asked Meng Xiuyuan:
“I’ve only heard people talk about the ‘Manggu Zhu Clam’, but I haven’t seen anyone actually catch it.
Since it’s so powerful, aren’t you afraid of Brother Meng?”
Meng Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head when he heard this:
"Don't be afraid. It's just a toad after all. No matter how poisonous it is, it's not as poisonous as a bad person. Just be more prepared."
When Zhong Ling heard this, he only found Meng Xiuyuan interesting. He raised his head and smiled brightly, then lowered his head and helped Meng Xiuyuan pick up the baggage filled with medicine:
"Haha, Brother Meng, you are so brave.
Since you are not afraid, then I am not afraid either!
Let's go quickly, I also want to see what this King of Poisons is like and whether he is more powerful than my mink."
While she was talking, she had already grabbed Meng Xiuyuan's sleeve and dragged him towards Wuliang Mountain with great interest.
…
From Dali City to Wuliang Mountain, Meng Xiu traveled on his own using Qinggong. It was only about a day's journey. However, with the addition of a bell, the two of them rode on horseback and arrived nearby on the evening of the second day.
Before entering Wuliang Mountain, I saw a group of people from all walks of life wearing long gray clothes and carrying slender swords patrolling around the foot of the mountain.
As a local, Zhong Ling recognized their identities:
"They are from the Wuliang Sword Sect. They have always been very stingy and do not allow others to enter the mountain behind Wuliang Mountain.
Brother Meng, let's hide a little and sneak in quietly."
Meng Xiuyuan nodded when he heard the words, and said "Okay," then he and Zhong Ling dismounted and found a remote road to go around to the back mountain of Wuliang Mountain.
But not long after walking, Meng Xiuyuan suddenly stopped in the middle of the road and frowned slightly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What's wrong, Brother Meng?"
Seeing Meng Xiuyuan acting like this, Zhong Ling subconsciously asked.
"Don't say anything, there are people coming on the road ahead."
As Meng Xiuyuan spoke, he put his hand on Zhong Ling's arm, pointed his toes, and then jumped up with the little girl and flew away to the side.
For a moment, Zhong Ling only felt that his body was light and airy, as if he was flying in the clouds and mist. When he realized it again, he and Meng Xiuyuan were already standing between the branches of a big tree. And the mountain path where the two of them were walking was nowhere to be found.
Can't find it.
Zhong Ling took a deep breath, waited for a long time, and then asked Meng Xiuyuan:
"Brother Meng, it turns out your kung fu is so powerful.
Even my father and mother would never be able to use your Qinggong like this.
Why didn't you show off your skills just now? How convenient would it be for us to fly directly into the mountains in a whoosh?"
Meng Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head when he heard this, but did not answer.
In fact, he was afraid that a venomous snake, mink or something like that would suddenly emerge from the little girl's body and bite him.
This is human nature, and it has nothing to do with whether the skill is high or not. He doesn't want to touch this little girl unless he has to.
However, Xu was approaching the Wuliang Sword Sect's five-year sword fighting competition, and the security in the mountain was quite tight, and Meng Xiuyuan did not want to get into trouble by arguing with them.
Helpless, Meng Xiuyuan had no choice but to grab Zhong Ling's arm again, boost his energy, and float towards the back mountain on the branches and leaves of the trees.
And this little girl was indeed interesting. At first, the strong wind hit her face, and the experience of flying above the trees made her a little nervous. But after a while, she felt like a child riding a roller coaster in the future. She opened her hands carelessly and was excited.
Experience this feeling that is almost like flying.
If Meng Xiuyuan hadn't given her a warning look, she might have shouted happily at this time, attracting the attention of the patrolling disciples.
After such a tea time, the two of them had entered the depths of the Wuliang Mountain. They saw only mountain peaks and dense trees, and no one patrolling anymore.
After landing, Zhong Ling, who was having fun, became much more well-behaved, and took the initiative to drag Meng Xiuyuan to search for shady and moist places where poisonous insects breed in the forest.
The two of them walked for a while, and finally stopped behind a hillside. According to Zhong Ling's plan, they began to go about their business.
Meng Xiuyuan whittled a wooden shovel, filled it with his true energy, and dug a large deep hole in the ground. Zhong Ling took advantage of this time to mix the poison-attracting powder and threw it to the bottom of the hole.
.
"Brother Meng, hurry up, let's go up the tree and wait.
The amount of medicine I used is very large, so it should be very effective. In addition, there are many poisonous insects in Wuliang Mountain, so it will definitely attract a lot of them."
While she was talking, she had already climbed to the top of a nearby tree.
When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he believed what the "expert" said, so he jumped up, chose a big tree next to Zhong Ling, and quietly observed what was going on below.
Facts have proved that the little girl was indeed not bluffing. It didn't take long before poisonous creatures were gradually gathered from all directions. They seemed to be attracted by some irresistible force and rushed towards the pit.
Although the quantity is not too much, it is not too small either.
Looking down from a high place, there are many kinds of centipedes, scorpions, spiders and venomous snakes, which are very eye-catching.
When Meng Xiu saw the situation, he felt a little numb on his body and couldn't help but get goosebumps. However, Zhong Ling beside him was filled with joy when he saw this situation and he released the lightning ferret from his waist.
The little white ferret immediately turned into a phantom and rushed down, rushed into the poisonous snakes, simply grabbed the poisonous snakes, and ate the buffet.
This continued until it got dark. A lot of poison had gathered at the bottom of the pit, and the lightning marten's belly was already bulging with food. Unfortunately, the giant red clam was never seen.
"Brother Meng, I'm sorry..."
Zhong Ling had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and was very anxious when he saw that the mango red clam that Meng Xiuyuan was looking for never showed up.
She boasted in front of Meng Xiuyuan how effective her medicinal powder was, but when she actually used it, she was unable to help Meng Xiuyuan find the poison she wanted, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he shook his head indifferently, smiled at Zhong Ling and replied:
"How can the Manggu Zhu Clam be so easy to find? It's normal for it to disappear for a while.
I just wonder if you, Miss Zhong, would like to suffer with me for a few days in the mountains and wilderness?"
Hearing this, Zhong Ling nodded quickly and said sincerely:
"Of course I do. Wandering around alone is not as fun as playing with you, Brother Meng.
Don't worry, Brother Meng, I will definitely help you catch that toad.
I am the most serious person when I speak and will never go back on my words."
Meng Xiuyuan's heart warmed when he heard this, and he immediately took Zhong Ling's arm and took her away from the poisonous place here to find another place to spend the night.
Under the hazy moonlight, the two of them looked like immortals from this world, flying past rows of dense trees. Every time Meng Xiu used the force of his hiking tip, he would float several feet away.
Zhong Ling felt the strong wind whistling in his ears and looked at the trees passing by his feet. He felt extremely excited and happy in his heart. He couldn't help shouting "Ah~~~~" excitedly, adding up what he had not been able to enjoy during the day.
It's a pity that it was made up for.
When Meng Xiu saw her like this, he couldn't help but secretly shake his head and smile. He immediately used his true energy to deliberately increase his speed.
The strong wind poured into Zhong Ling's mouth, which made her excited. She wanted to scream but couldn't. She couldn't help but feel a little depressed for a moment. She finally calmed down and looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a complaining face.
At this time, what echoed in the mountains was Meng Xiuyuan's hearty laughter of "hahaha".
…
For several days, Meng Xiuyuan and Zhong Ling searched for traces of the wild red clam in Wuliang Mountain.
Whenever they went to a place where poisons might breed more, the two of them would repeat the process of digging holes and burying poisons, attracting nearby poisons to gather.
Unfortunately, there has been no harvest in the past few days, and I have not even heard the cry of the giant clam.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing that most of the large bag of medicine he brought has been used, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but wonder whether such an adventure could not be forced after all, and he felt a little bit relieved for a while.
Lost.
On the contrary, Zhong Ling was having a lot of fun these days. She laughed and laughed with Meng Xiuyuan every day, catching pheasants, roasting hares, and eating like the mink she raised, making her feel like she was camping.
.
Moreover, Zhong Ling is happiest every time she gathers the poisons in one place and moves to another location. Flying above the forest sea with Meng Xiuyuan, she is always shouting with excitement, as if she is going to an amusement park.
It’s like a roller coaster, and I still don’t get tired of it even after so many times.
Meng Xiuyuan thought she was innocent and cute, and was grateful that she had helped him a lot, so he allowed her to be happy as she pleased.
Until that evening, the two of them went straight to the bottom of a hillside. Zhong Ling took out the remaining herbs in the medicine bag and found that there seemed to be only enough for two or three times, so he couldn't help but start to feel a little sad.
She was worried that this happy life was coming to an end, and she was also ashamed that she had not been able to find the giant clam for Meng Xiuyuan for so many days.
But by this time, Meng Xiuyuan's mentality had calmed down. He thought that if he used up the medicine and it still didn't work, then he didn't have the opportunity, so there was no need to force it.
In the future, when traveling around the world and dealing with Ding Chunqiu, as long as he is careful, there will be no major problems in the end.
But that evening, things suddenly took a turn for the better.
Just as the two of them had prepared the pit and medicinal powder and jumped onto the big tree nearby, they suddenly heard several shouts of "Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang" not far away. The sound sounded like the crowing of a cow.
, but it has a bit more sad meaning.
"Brother Meng, it's Manggu Zhuha!"
Zhong Ling was very surprised when he heard the sound. He immediately released the lightning marten from his pocket and wanted to help Meng Xiuyuan catch the toad.
Meng Xiuyuan nodded, but stretched out his hand to stop her:
"I know, but don't move and stay here.
That toad is so powerful that I can deal with it alone."
After a while, another three loud roars of "Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang" were heard, and a small toad jumped out from the grass, no more than two inches long, its body was red as blood, and its eyes were shining with golden light. It opened its mouth
Zhang, the thin skin under the neck vibrated, and it was "Jiang Ang", a roar like a cow's roar.
Thinking about it, there is no doubt that it is the King of Poisons, Manggu Zhuha.
I saw this little toad spitting out a stream of faint red mist as soon as it appeared. No matter what poison is around, as soon as it touches the red mist, it will immediately twitch a few times and die on the spot. And this mango red toad is
They take the opportunity to feast and select the poisonous glands of these poisons to eat.
Meng Xiu had a vision that it was so powerful, so naturally he didn't dare to be careless. He first clapped his palm from a distance and used the wind of his palm to blow away all the red mist around the giant red clam. Then he picked a leaf from the tree next to him and waved his hand.
He swung it towards the toad.
This leaf was filled with Meng Xiuyuan's Beiming Qi, and it was as fast as lightning. Even the top masters in the world could not resist it. Although the Manggu Zhu Clam was powerful, it was only powerful in terms of toxicity. After all, it was just a poison.
Just a toad.
The leaves flew over and with one blow, the red clam was thrown up with its legs in the air, its belly exposed, and it was unclear whether it was dead or unconscious.
Seeing the sight, Meng Xiu immediately sealed all his energy veins with his true energy, then jumped down from the big tree and walked carefully towards the wild red clam.
"Brother Meng, great, we finally succeeded!"
Seeing this, Zhong Ling was much more optimistic than Meng Xiuyuan. She was already excited and wanted to celebrate with Meng Xiuyuan. When she saw Meng Xiuyuan cautiously picking up the immobile red clam with a branch, she couldn't help but ask:
"By the way, Brother Meng, I haven't even asked yet.
What do you want this toad for?
Is it going to be used to make the most amazing poison in the world? Or is it going to be sold for money?
I have a medicine bag here, you can put it in...ah!!"
As Zhong Lingzheng was speaking, she couldn't help but scream, because she saw Meng Xiuyuan throw up the giant clam like lightning, then raise his head and swallow it whole.
"Brother Meng, are you okay?!"
When Zhong Lingji saw that Meng Xiuyuan had eaten something so poisonous, he couldn't help but be very worried. He rushed to him and looked up and down carefully.
But Meng Xiuyuan's brows were furrowed, as if he was in some pain. After a moment, his expression suddenly relaxed, and his face turned to reveal an unconcealable joy:
"I'm fine, but you little girl, don't follow my example and swallow the toad alive.
Other toads have parasites in their bodies."
When Zhong Ling heard this, he was a little confused for a moment. He didn't understand what Meng Xiuyuan meant, nor why he suddenly swallowed the toad alive.
On the contrary, the lightning ferret on her shoulder, which had always been fearless of the sky and the earth, looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a flinching look.
The little guy only looked at Meng Xiuyuan for a moment, then trembled all over and hurriedly hid in Zhong Ling's pocket.
