"...It's much better, it doesn't hurt anymore." I said stupidly, and then I realized that my mouth was full of sweet juice, which felt a little sticky to the touch. I wiped it with the back of my hand and took a look.
, and found that it was actually scarlet blood.
I was so shocked that I suddenly woke up completely and stood up quickly. Although there was still some faint pain in my body, it was nothing compared to before. Having experienced previous encounters, I knew that the most painful and difficult period was already over.
In the past, it was just different from the last time I used Buddhism to fight against the golden silkworm Gu's energy. This time I had almost no active consciousness. I seemed to just keep chewing the fruit and got through this disaster.
As for what that fruit is, now that I am conscious, I have already remembered it. It was the Blood Dragon Fruit that grew on the mosaic tree in the forest where red-headed red-chained snakes were rampant.
Wan Lin and I both felt before that these Blood Dragon Fruits grow in places where no dragon veins pass through, and are also loved and eaten by monsters. They seem to be different from the normal varieties. We both found it very strange and hope not to go there casually.
Eat it and only use it as an emergency backup.
I just didn’t expect that this time, because my golden silkworm attack came so suddenly, I almost went into shock and died of pain. Wanlin had no choice but to feed me the Xuelong fruit. The supernatural effect of this fruit is indeed well-deserved. I really feel that my whole body is now covered with blood.
Filled with a warm and overflowing feeling.
It was as if I had not experienced that kind of life-and-death torment before, but rather as if I had been passed down my skills for many years by some senior master. I felt an unprecedented sense of fullness in every move I made.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong with this Xuelong Fruit. I was worried before that it might have some evil qualities. Now you look rosy, the sky is full, and the earth is round. It is a blessing that you have achieved success. It is exactly
Ancient books talk about the facial symptoms after eating the Xuelong fruit." Wanlin said happily, I almost clapped my hands when I saw her, obviously she felt that she had found a way for me to overcome the golden silkworm Gu.
"Well, yes, I feel very full and warm in the Qi Sea now. It seems that this is indeed a rare treasure." I replied with a smile, but even though I said so, I always felt something was wrong in my heart.
taste.
Yes, I have noticed something is not right. This Xuelong Fruit is said to be condensed from the earth's Kunyuan spiritual energy. It is the essence and blood of the dragon's veins. If you eat it in your stomach, you should have a sense of great righteousness and vastness.
A sense of righteousness.
But on the contrary, although from the outside, I don't seem to have anything strange about me, and I look very energetic, I can smell a faint scent of blood coming from the air.
In other words, the smell of blood was a bit inappropriate. The feeling was very light, and could only be described as a wisp of unusual fishy sweetness. Although it was only a wisp that was extremely elusive and difficult to capture, it was enough to cause alarm.
Because a spiritual fruit truly created by heaven and earth would never have even a trace of such a strange smell.
It's just that this feeling is still very subtle, like magma buried deep in the ground. It may be able to capture a little bit of feeling and heat, but it cannot penetrate the thick soil to see what's underneath.
the truth.
What will happen to those weak bloody odors left in the body? Now I don’t have the ability or conditions to know. The only thing I can do is not to waste the fruit I took the risk to eat, and quickly get rid of the gold in my body.
All the essence of the silkworm Gu was released and transformed into the limbs and bones for his own use.
"Great, now you have survived two attacks. Generally speaking, after three catastrophes, the golden silkworm Gu has basically settled down in your body, and there will be no more violent attacks. The next one
As time goes by, as long as you slowly master how to use and mobilize its power, and use it to absorb spiritual energy from the world, your skill will improve rapidly." Wan Lin said happily.
"Is there one more time... But now I can feel the pain for the second time far more than the first time. I don't even have time to mobilize my own Dharma to resist. So what will it feel like the last time?
What?" I couldn't help but mutter to myself with some fear.
"Well...this is indeed a problem, but the golden silkworm Gu is almost extinct in my era, and the seven-point golden silkworm Gu was only cultivated recently, so most of the information I know is hearsay.
..." Wan Lin suddenly showed a worried look on her face after listening to my words, "I don't know how painful the last attack will be. This is terrible. What if I can't even eat the Xuelong Fruit?
manage."
"It's okay, I didn't think it would be to this extent. Didn't I almost lose consciousness just now, but my survival instinct still made me swallow the fruit." I said comfortingly, but I was thinking in my heart.
As a last resort, I still don’t want to eat more of that weird bloody fruit.
As the saying goes, there must be a ghost when there is evil. Not only does this Blood Dragon Fruit not grow near the dragon veins where it is supposed to reproduce, but what kind of food does it rely on as nutrients to grow and mature? It even has the same level of effects as the original product. This thing itself
It's very scary to think about.
"By the way, even if you really can't chew it by then, can't you still drink the juice directly?" Wan Lin said excitedly, "I will help you press these Xuelong fruits into juice and store them in bamboo tubes.
, if the attack really happens and you can't even chew for a while, you can at least drink the juice, and the effect should not be much different!"
Seeing Wanlin's excited face, I was embarrassed to stop her again, although I always thought it would be better not to touch the juice of the Xuelong Fruit, especially when I noticed that there was an elusive feeling in my body.
After the smell of blood, I felt that the juice of this fruit looked like blood.
I don’t know if I’m being too pretentious. After eating the fruit, my strength increases greatly. This kind of thing always makes me think of vampires in Western fantasy. I feel like a monster who must drink human blood. As long as I
Relying on this blood-like juice, you can relieve the pain and allow you to continue living.
Wanlin was busy for a while, and then she squeezed the juice from the remaining fruits, filled three or four bamboo tubes, and let me hang them on my body. Because it was getting late, we were both a little tired, and we were picked up at dawn today.
The saha bugs disturbed our rest, so we didn’t rush on any further and decided to rest here for a while, and soon fell asleep.
