Chapter 21: The Carp
Finally, after a few rounds, Song Tao finally grabbed a task, looking for ten empty grasses on the grassland outside the west gate of the city, and the reward was five low-level wood spirit stones. Song Tao couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he was fortunate to have read the Lingcao Sutra, this hollow grass is shaped like a leek, no more than a few inches high, the color is green, and the body can be as light as a swallow when eaten, and the volley is empty...... Of course, that's for mortals, and for monks, it's just a common medicinal herb!
It's just that it's not easy to see the empty grass mixed in the weeds! After Song Tao ran to the west of the city, he worked the grass, and kept turning over the weeds on the ground with his hands and looking for them carefully.
One, two...... Nine, ten! Finally, I found it, and I finally found it after lying on my stomach for a long time. Song Tao was just about to get up, but he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a black hole the size of a fist under a clump of weeds on the ground. Curiosity sparked! "What is this?" Song Tao muttered to himself, while reaching out and gently brushing away a tuft of weeds at the entrance of the cave!
Suddenly, an unknown object suddenly shot out of the black hole, and when the yellow light flashed, Song Tao felt a pain in his fingers!
"Ahh He screamed, and when he looked closely, he saw a small rodent hanging from his hand, with yellow fur and flowers, two large ears, and a slender tail hanging behind him like a spring.
"Whirling rats!" Song Tao immediately thought of the content of the spirit beast book, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was really careless. This whirling rat loves to eat the creepy grass and often lives together.
Why did I forget this, and stupidly stretched out my hand to ask it to gnaw!
As soon as he was lucky, the whirling rat was immediately shocked out of his fingers by Song Tao, fell to the ground and let out a wail!
Song Tao smiled bitterly and wiped the blood between his fingers, this is a lesson!
In the Golden Radiance Realm, there must be a spirit beast that accompanies the spirit grass, also known as the grass protection beast.
Today, this Empty Grass is a low-grade very common medicinal herb, so the level of the accompanying spirit beast is also very low, and it has no attack power! However, if it is a thousand-year-old or 10,000-year-old spirit grass, then the grass protection beast will be difficult to deal with! There are many monks who accidentally lost their lives! Song Tao also has a long memory today! Be careful in the future......
After handing in the task, I exchanged for five low-level wood-based spirit stones, which is still far from the number of alchemy materials purchased! Song Tao can only continue to take on the task and strive to save enough spirit stones as soon as possible!
The days passed like this, Song Tao was busy every day, and unconsciously touched this piece of terrain very familiarly, and he would not go the wrong way when he closed his eyes!
Finally, Song Tao also grabbed the task of killing Yunxi bloodthirsty crabs, so alive! The bloodthirsty crab is just a very low-level demon beast, bloodthirsty, gregarious, eight inches long, and its weapon is a pair of large pincers. You can easily get a reward of a hundred low-grade water spirit stones, why not!
Song Tao was very happy at the moment, and rushed to Yunxi with a flying sword as soon as he slipped away.
Not to mention that this cloud stream is really worthy of its name, a silver-white stream looks like clouds and mist from a distance, quietly winding out of the two mountains. The water vapor lingers all year round, like a dream like a white cloud in the sky!
Song Tao's luck was really good, just around Yunxi, he saw a big bloodthirsty crab crawling slowly onto the grass, as if he wanted to bask in the sun.
Song Tao didn't say a word at the moment, but read the mantra, only to see the wind-chasing sword like a white lightning bolt towards the bloodthirsty crab. Cut it in half without any suspense. There was a faint hint of red light in the snow-white crab meat, and Song Tao couldn't help but be surprised, could it be a demon pill? This bloodthirsty crab has actually cultivated into a demon pill? Impossible! How could a demon beast with a demon pill be hacked to death so easily? He stretched out his hand curiously, and just wanted to pinch it to see it clearly, only to see a white water arrow suddenly shoot out of the cloud stream, menacing and demonic......
Song Tao was not slow to react, he immediately retracted his hand, and with a slight movement under his feet, he took three steps back.
When it was too late, I saw the mist in the cloud stream splashing violently, and in the mist, something about the size of a person jumped out!
What is this? How could there be such a big demon beast in Yunxi? Song Tao couldn't help but be secretly surprised, pushed with both hands, and a piece of true qi cleared the mist, and only then did he see the true face of the demon beast in Lushan!
Song Tao was taken aback, "Human-faced carp? I saw a big golden carp about a meter long suddenly appear in front of him, and the strange thing was that its head resembled a human face, or a dull face without any expression! It looks really uncomfortable!
Song Tao clearly remembered that it was written in the spirit beast book that the human-faced carp is a monster beast that mostly lives in the deep mountains, and the cultivation is based on the human face and eyes as the standard, with no eyes for a hundred years, closed eyes for a thousand years, and open eyes for ten thousand years! And the human-faced carp in front of him does indeed have a pair of closed eyes, it seems to be a thousand-year-old demon beast!
Song Tao was overjoyed, the thousand-year-old demon beasts have often cultivated the Inner Dan, commonly known as the Demon Pill! This demon pill is a good treasure for a monk! Not only can you refine pills but also refine weapons, but you can also increase your own cultivation in raw clothes! It's just that it's not an easy task to deal with a thousand-year-old demon beast! Song Tao was overjoyed, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.
I saw that the human-faced carp had a standard fish leap, and he was actually lying on the corpse of the bloodthirsty crab, making a sucking sound from time to time! It turned out to be eating the flesh of the bloodthirsty crab.
Golden opportunity! Song Tao didn't say a word at the moment, and immediately sacrificed the Wind Chasing Sword and turned into a white light and shot towards the human-faced carp!
I saw that the human-faced carp was really difficult to deal with, and a cyan brilliance suddenly burst out on its body, and suddenly the demonic aura was great, and the scales on its body were erected, looking like a large hedgehog with a strange shape, and the invincible wind chasing sword was actually blocked outside.
Song Tao gritted his teeth, constantly injecting a large amount of true qi into the Wind Chasing Sword, trying to control it to press down towards the human-faced carp little by little!
Finally! The human-faced carp can't seem to support it! I saw that it actually shook its body, "Whoosh! Suddenly turned into a blue light and jumped back into the cloud stream, shook his head and tail upstream, and fled......
How could Song Tao let go of this and saw the fat in his mouth slip away like this, he hurriedly chased after it, and watched the fluctuations on the water surface with all his attention!
Fortunately, Yunxi is crystal clear, and the huge body of the human-faced carp is exposed!
As soon as Song Tao caught up, he immediately controlled the wind chasing sword and stabbed it towards the human-faced carp.
This time, right in the middle of his body, the human-faced carp shook its head and tail in pain, and a trace of blue-black blood slowly spread in Yunxi!
Song Tao was about to manipulate the wind chasing sword to chop once, only to see that the human-faced carp suddenly opened his lips and spit out a bead the size of a pale cyan egg yolk that was round and round.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning burst out from the cyan demon pill and hit Song Tao, Song Tao was startled, and subconsciously his luck formed a true qi shield in front of him, only to see that the cyan lightning actually crawled all over the true qi shield in an instant, "Crackling!" It writhed like a silver snake before it subsided......
"It's amazing!" Song Tao said with a straight face, but he also knew that he couldn't attack that human-faced carp with such strength a few times! As soon as the demon pill came out, it proved that it was already at the end of the strong crossbow at the moment, and at that moment he pinched a magic trick in his right hand, only to see that his true qi actually turned into thousands of sharp silver needles, and it just whistled and stabbed straight towards the human-faced carp......
