Chapter 069 Wood Spirit
Running around in Liangzhou City for a few days in the white night, crossing dozens of cities to find the dense woodland in the Liangzhou Prefecture area, fortunately I found two pieces of Huang Stone, so I only need to find the vine wood essence to ensure that the spar core refining materials are smoothly gathered.
Liangzhou has a vast territory but there are not enough people to live, when you enter the dense forest at night, you can still look at the surrounding households who rely on hunting for a living, the further back you go, the more uninhabited, and the dense forests that cover the sky and the sun are all over the field.
The white night in the woodland is like the past year, returning to the life in the forest in the southwest of Zhongzhou, happily passing through the branches and stones, returning to the forest, and the white night can better smell the strong fragrance of rattan essence.
As the name suggests, the vine wood essence is the product of the withering of the vine tree, which does not die for a thousand years, does not fall down after a thousand years of death, and is immortal for a thousand years after the fall, which is almost talking about the characteristics of the vine tree.
Most of the vine trees that grow well are grown in the middle of the forest, and the solid trunk of the vine tree will gradually become brittle and collapse after decay, leaving a piece of vine wood essence near the root of the tree after wind and rain, if it is not polished and used, it can completely maintain its form for hundreds of years.
After only a few quarters of an hour, Bai Ye stood in front of a dead vine tree, the coiled and cracked bark had already been brittle for many years, and there were still a few green vine trees growing around, looking at the age of the tree as if it was the seed left by the dead old tree.
Bai Ye raised his claws and grabbed the lower half of the bark, the weak and fragile bark was simply vulnerable, the sawdust was flying, and Bai Ye just tore off a few pieces of dead wood and suddenly froze still, erecting his ears to listen to the movement in the grass not far away.
There was a movement in the grass in the distance, and in the blink of an eye, Bai Ye had jumped on the trunk of the tree and looked down at the grass, and it was a python with a thick bowl mouth spitting out the core.
Bai Ye watched vigilantly as the python slowly moved towards the vine where it was, Bai Ye did not dare to touch the python when it was too large, it was confident and agile but did not dare to underestimate this huge predator.
The python twisted its body around the trunk and began to climb upward, but when it approached, the python crossed the branch and moved to another tree, the python seemed to have used the white night as easy food, and after the white night escaped, the python accelerated sharply, and actually attacked the white night around the vine branch next to the root.
Between the lightning and flint, Bai Ye's waist twisted to avoid the python's sharp teeth, the snake's movements were already outrageously fast, but without claws and feet, he still couldn't move and jump as flexibly as Bai Ye, and after a few fell to the ground, he quickly ran away, and chose a tree branch that was more convenient to leave to watch how the python moved.
During the day, the python has to endure the stuffiness when it comes out of the hole, and it is not as energetic as the white night, but the python also seems to know that the white night is not something it can easily capture, so it relies on the vine forest to find a tree hole and recuperate in it, which gives the tree a white night problem that is ready to wait for the python to leave.
Bai Ye's thoughts flashed countless times, and he wanted to attract some large carnivorous beasts to dare to walk or devour this python, and after jumping off the tree, Bai Yejing looked for the thin beast territory mark in the air.
Carnivorous beasts, jackals, tigers and leopards are very territorial, so it is an excellent means to smell the smell in the white night, and sure enough, after walking only a thousand steps, he smelled a fishy smell of urine, and the white night who was born in the forest knew that this was the territory of the bear blind, and if he walked less than 100 meters forward, it would inevitably attract the attack of the behemoth.
Fortunately, the blind bear was so large that he didn't run as fast as he could, and after walking around lightly, Bai Ye encountered a black bear, and the thick bear paw was enough to slap it to death, even the trunk of the thick arm could not withstand this heavy blow.
White Night is provocative, and even deliberately shows fearlessness in front of the black bear, which is also irritable and irritable, and its bulky body moves no less than a hill.
"Whew!"
The black bear chased Bai Ye for a few hundred meters, and in the face of Bai Ye's constant provocation and trouble, the bear blind man in this forest was fearless and the strong man would not give up easily, and he traveled dozens of meters and Bai Ye jumped on the brittle old dead vine tree.
"Boom!" the black bear slapped his palm on the dead wood and knocked the dead wood away a few feet away, and the white night rolled lightly on the ground and ran towards the tree hole where the python lived, the python listened to the loud noise and probed out to investigate the situation, who knew that he saw a majestic black bear running over, and the python was frightened and wanted to run away.
The blind bear focused on the route of the white night's escape and did not see the python under his feet, and stepped on the tail of Juling with a heavy palm, and the whole body of the giant python curled up and rolled up on the black bear's legs, and the instinctive reaction attack actually buried the python's good life, and the black bear was very angry after wrapping up the python, and was stunned to shake off the python.
The python tightened its body and wanted to hang the black bear in a winding and hunting way, but the size difference was too big, and the kung fu python stepped on the soles of the black bear into a puddle of mud for a quarter of an hour, and the black bear ravaged the python without breathing.
Bai Ye didn't expect to attract a black bear to interrupt Fujiki by the way, which is to save effort and solve the damn python, this thing is smart but is clever and mistaken, and the death can be described as miserable.
Bai Ye squatted on the tree and waited for the black bear to leave without hunger, although Bai Ye could also wipe out the black bear by sacrificing the blue blood magic bead, but Bai Ye's aura was to be used when transforming in the future, and if it could be saved, it would not kill it if it followed the bear blind man without grievances.
By the time the black bear left, it was already dusk, so he dug up the dead wood and wrapped the vine in the green cloth he had brought in beforehand, and then hurried to the place where the stone was hidden at the edge of the woods.
Bai Ye relied on the green cloth to return to Jiangcheng with two pieces of Huang Shi and Fuji Mu Jing, and he couldn't move easily according to the time he came, and he had to avoid pedestrians on the way and could only take the wild path, so the journey back went intermittently for more than ten days, and the time to look for Huang Shi and Fuji Mu Jing when he came had already left Xie Tu for a month.
After returning to Jiangcheng, Bai Ye went to Jiangcheng Taoist Temple with the collected materials, not only did he not clear it because of his hard work for many days, but Bai Ye smoothly derived five tails, although there was no obvious increase in body shape compared with before, and now there is no gap with the average young cat.
"White Night Daoist, long time no see!" The purple robe was already waiting at the door of the attic, seeing that Bai Ye was carrying a green cloth burden, knowing that it had already collected some of its materials for refining the spar heart, and only needed to take the blood jade that was not so difficult to obtain in the next step to start refining the puppet into a gargoyle.
"Aim!"
Bai Ye entered the door and put the burden on the ground, jumped on the bench and rested, and after opening the purple robe, he smiled and said: "Well, I only need a piece of blood jade to start refining, "Tu Bao "I have already sent someone to fetch it, as for the rest of the blood jade, I guess it will come soon." ”
The purple robe put all the materials on the table and mashed them, took the rune mold for refining the spar heart and filled it neatly, and then only needed to wait for the remaining piece of blood jade to arrive.
It turned out that the purple robe had planned the time for the return of the white night in advance and invited Dehou's father-in-law to go to Xu's house to grab the blood jade, and according to the skills of Dehou's father-in-law, he gave Xu Gong a flat and took the blood jade, not to mention that no one in the Xu family found out in the process, even Xu Gong himself did not see the face of Dehou's father-in-law.
As soon as the purple robe sat down after mashing the materials, he heard the old voice outside laugh and said, "The blood jade is in hand, and I will also see how this gargoyle crystal heart is refined." ”
When Bai Ye opened his eyes, Father-in-law Dehou had already floated into the room and put the blood jade on the table, and it was only a short half-pillar of incense inside and outside Jiangcheng, and Father-in-law Dehou's light body kung fu was not as good as the purple robe.
After crushing the remaining piece of spar heart, the purple robe poured all the crumbs into the mold, and then the seal was attached to the seal to press the mold, and half a bowl of mountain spring water taken from the back mountain spring was soaked in the mold.
The so-called spar heart is a five-colored spar, which is only used as the core of the gargoyle's manipulation, because the main body of the gargoyle has been integrated into the essence blood of the white night, and when refining the spar heart, it does not need the fusion blessing of the essence blood.
The combination of crushed material and debris is unique, and it looks more like some colored broken stones poured into lava to join each other, but ordinary mountain spring water entering the mold can make the Huang stone, blood jade, earth dumpling, and rattan wood essence condense together.
With the sigil bonus of the purple robe, it is also necessary to ensure that there are no flaws in the process of condensing the spar heart due to lack of water, so the purple robe continues to inject water into it through the holes and gaps left in the mold in advance, and Bai Ye also dispels fatigue and looks at the operation of the purple robe.
The prototype of the spar heart has been expressed by the mold, which is roughly a multi-faceted translucent spar, and the transparent spar heart can be seen to see the glazed color inside, and the purple robe constantly presses the mold to make the mold fit more closely with the stone crystal inside.
After the interior was finalized, the purple robe tied up and fixed the mold, and then the white night manipulator Huangquan puppet stood in the center of the room, and the purple robe looked at the white night and asked, "The gargoyle is in human form, do you want to make it a woman or a man?"
