Chapter 703: Bones of the Secret Room

Spirit beasts and demon beasts are actually the same thing, but spirit beasts have been domesticated, their wildness has weakened, and they are willing to be driven by people, while demon beasts do not obey discipline and prefer to be alone.

Demon beasts can also cultivate, but the method of cultivation is different, by devouring the earth aura and mountain herbs, so as to achieve the purpose of cultivation. It's just that the herbs have not been refined, and swallowing them raw will cause the medicinal properties to pass away, which is not as pure as the pills, and the demon beasts themselves do not have corresponding exercises to cultivate, so their progress is slow.

But no matter what, demon beasts are born with a love for medicinal herbs, because they can sense the benefits of medicinal herbs to themselves, so they will instinctively devour them.

Jin Jinghu smelled the aroma of the elixir and couldn't help but come over, which was an instinct in itself, which reminded Zhang Yunfan of an elixir specially created for spirit beasts, this elixir is called "Beast Feeding Pill", which can play a role in assisting cultivation for lower-grade spirit beasts.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunfan rummaged through the alchemy room, found the herbs needed for the beast feeding pill, and refined them into pills. The grade of the Beast Feeding Pill is not too high, there is only a second grade, which is suitable for first-class spirit beasts to eat, so it is not too difficult to refine.

At the moment of Cheng Dan, bursts of aroma wafted out of the Dan furnace, Jin Jinghu's eyes lit up, and he hung on his lips, looking salivating.

"You foodie, the pill still needs to be warmed for a while, and you can eat it later, you wait a while." Zhang Yunfan scolded with a smile. After a while, when the temperature of the Dan furnace subsided, Zhang Yunfan slapped his palm, and the lid of the furnace flew up, and the pill also flew out, raising his hand to grab the pill, a total of six pills.

Zhang Yunfan divided the pill into two parts, one for Jin Jinghu and the other for Hei, and the two spirit beasts both showed intoxicated expressions after eating the pill, and their looks were ridiculous. Seeing their expressions, Zhang Yunfan said to himself, "Have they never taken pills?" ”

The situation is really the same as Zhang Yunfan guessed, in this otherworldly continent, the elixir is already scarce, the monks are not enough to eat, and few people will use the elixir to feed the spirit beasts, unless it is those super families, the lord who is not bad for money, ordinary people can't afford this consumption at all, and there are even animal trainers, in order to cut off the ** of the spirit beast greedy for pills, they have thought of various ways to deal with it.

For example, when the spirit beast was young, he deliberately refined a kind of bitter pill, this kind of pill is refined with hundreds of strange herbs, the weird taste should only be there, it is rare to smell it a few times in the world, it is not a spirit animal, that is, people will be disgusted for several years when they smell it. After the spirit beasts took this elixir, the vast majority of them would hide far away when they saw the elixir from now on, and they were reluctant to approach.

The Hundred Bitter Pill is one of all the damage tricks, and the other one is more cruel, the monk will remove the taste buds of the spirit beast when it is young, so that the spirit beast will not feel the smell for the rest of its life, even if the fragrant pill is in their eyes, it is all a weed, but the shape is more unique.

Either way, in short, the monk wanted to spend a lot of money.

With doubts, Zhang Yunfan searched for the answer in Zhang Xuan's memory, and learned that in order to save money, the monk actually came up with all kinds of strange ways to deal with spirit beasts, and he was immediately indignant in his heart, and secretly scolded: "These grandsons are so cruel, this is fucking animal cruelty." ”

Zhang Yunfan's inner atmosphere, but helpless, in the Otherworldly Continent, it is not uncommon to deal with spirit beasts with such strange means, and it has become a common phenomenon, just with his little bit of Taoism, it is wishful thinking to change this situation, and it will not work at all.

Sighing secretly, Zhang Yunfan fed the Beast Feeding Pill to Hei Hehua, then stroked their heads, and warned, "You have to remember, next time you are not allowed to enter the alchemy room casually, otherwise there will be no pills to eat, you know?" ”

Under Zhang Yunfan's careful teaching, the eyes of the two spirit beasts widened, revealing a satisfied expression, Zhang Yunfan estimated that it should still be the medicinal properties of the pill, and then waved their hands and asked them to refine the pill.

The way spirit beasts refine the pill is more special, unlike people who refine it by urging exercises, they just need to sleep, because the spirit beast's physique is much stronger than that of people, and it can withstand the ravages of medicinal properties in the body. This ability is innate, which is incomparable to people, and it is not enviable.

After pacifying the two spirit beasts, Zhang Yunfan returned to the alchemy room, stood at the door of the alchemy room and glanced at the door frame, and had an idea in his heart, planning to install a door for the alchemy room.

Although he has just told Hei Hehua, as a senior foodie, Zhang Yunfan knows that the temptation of food is infinite, it can make it difficult for people to control themselves, and animals can make any unexpected moves in the face of food, so he chooses to believe in the guarantee of animals, which is a very stupid idea.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfan thought about installing a door, so as to completely prevent the occurrence of being suddenly disturbed again. Zhang Yunfan is a resolute person, since he thought of it, he had to do it immediately, but he soon fell into a new trouble, thinking about whether to make a stone door or a wooden door.

The reason why I am entangled in this is because it is more time-consuming and laborious to build a wooden door, and the wooden door is not strong enough, so with the strong body of Jin Jinghu, it is estimated that the wooden door can be smashed in just one stroke. In comparison, making a stone door is much simpler, just find a large enough stone, polish it, and install it.

However, the stone door is heavy, and it is necessary to set up a mechanism to open it conveniently, which is a technical job, Zhang Yunfan has never learned the art of mechanism, and he does not know how to design a mechanism at all.

After struggling for half a while, Zhang Yunfan made a decision, planning to dig another secret room under the alchemy room, and seal it with a stone slab, so that no one would know that he was below, and completely put an end to the trouble of being disturbed.

But to do the work to do a full set, it is still necessary to install a door at the door of the alchemy room, it is regarded as a decoration, and it is a big deal to set the exit somewhere else, this door can be regarded as a decoration. After making up his mind, Zhang Yunfan left the cave, came to a stone wall outside, cut off a large piece of stone with a sword, made it into a stone slab, and carried it back to the cave.

A ditch was dug on the ground and the top of the cave, and then the stone slab was inserted vertically, and the left and right were pushed and pulled, although the friction was relatively strong, but it was quite convenient to use. Entering the alchemy room, Zhang Yunfan closed the stone door, glanced left and right, selected a corner, and then began construction.

First of all, a square opening was made in the ground, about one meter long and wide, allowing only one person to pass through, and then digging down the steps along the opening, and the other side of the steps was forty-five degrees down, so that the passage became the shape of being inserted diagonally into the ground. After going down about seven or eight meters, the basement was opened.

The amount of work this time is not too large, according to the plan, Zhang Yunfan plans to open a secret room of about fifty square meters, compared to the cave above, it is much more. It took an hour or so, and the secret room had begun to take shape, and the efficiency was so high, mainly because Zhang Yunfan had experience, and he was not as restrained as yesterday, and he took a drastic approach when digging, just like cutting a watermelon, and cutting a large stone with a sword.

Putting aside the excavated stones, Zhang Yunfan chose a location and continued to open a tunnel to the outside.

Digging deeply, after a long while, the stones in front of him suddenly collapsed, Zhang Yunfan thought that he had dug out of the mountain, he was relieved in his heart, and he was happy, only to find that something was wrong, but the other end of the open hole was not bright, and it was still pitch black.

"Is it obscured by trees?" With doubts, Zhang Yunfan stabbed the spirit snake sword in his hand forward, but the long sword stabbed into the air, there was no obstruction in front of him, there was nothing, Zhang Yunfan was suddenly puzzled, urged the divine dragon to refine the pill, and conjured up the Danhuo and threw it into the empty space in front.

Under the illumination of the Danhuo, the scene ahead was clear at a glance, and it was a stone room, which was empty and exuded a musty smell. Zhang Yunfan was a little surprised, he never expected that in this deserted Tiezhufeng Mountain, there was actually a secret room hidden, and for a while, he thought about it in his mind.

Stepping into the secret room, Zhang Yunfan glanced left and right, and found that the tables, chairs and benches in the secret room were complete, and in the corner of the left front wall, there was a stone couch, and a tall skeleton sat on the top of it, and in the open space below the skeleton, there was a one-meter-high alchemy furnace, which was full of dust.

There are a lot of spaces on the other three walls of the stone room, and medicinal herbs are placed in the stone grid on the front wall, and medicine bottles are stacked in the stone grid on the wall of the hole where Zhang Yunfan came out, and then look at the wall opposite the stone couch, a large number of books are placed in the stone grid on the wall.

The layout of the whole stone room is regular, but the dust is more serious, and the silence is a little long.

"I didn't want to disturb, I just passed through here, don't be surprised!" Entering the room, Zhang Yunfan first bowed to the bones on the stone couch, muttered in his mouth, and then came to the table, where an oil lamp was placed, and half of the lamp oil was still left in it.

Lighting the lamp, Zhang Yunfan walked around the stone room with an oil lamp, looked around, and found that the stone grid was full of warm god herbs, which were used to warm the divine sense. I looked at the medicine bottle on the other side, opened a few and took a look, and it was full of elixirs that warmed and nourished my sense.

Zhang Yunfan was puzzled, his footsteps did not stop, he wandered to the stone wall where the ancient books were placed, and after checking it, he found that even the books were related to divine consciousness, and there were a small number of medical books and classics.

"How is it that everything here has to do with consciousness? Could it be that the person who died was a cultivator who specialized in cultivating divine consciousness? Chang Zhang Yunfan had a bold thought in his heart, and turned to the bones.

The skeleton is very tall, looking at its clothing, although it is dilapidated, it can be vaguely distinguished, it is a man's clothing, it can be seen that the owner of the skeleton should have been a tall man before his death. It's just that what makes Zhang Yunfan feel strange is that this person died for some reason, and he died in this dark place.

"He should also be a member of Canglu Academy, he knows alchemy, is he a disciple under the elixir elder?" After some thought, Zhang Yunfan mentally generated a series of guesses. At the same time, he looked at it and found a black shadow in the skull of the skeleton, and was greatly surprised, Zhang Yunfan leaned his head closer, wanting to see what was going on.

After taking a closer look at Zhang Yunfan, he found that the black shadow in the skeleton brain turned out to be a black lotus flower the size of a thumb, "What is this?" Zhang Yunfan was puzzled, the black lotus suddenly flew out, and before he could react, it slammed into the door in front of him.
