Chapter 131: A Treasure (Part I) (Happy June 1st!)
The red-scaled snake demon lay on the ground, its scales shattered, and its head rolled aside, bloody and dead.
Yu Xiu walked up to the long snake's body, glanced at the human head, casually covered it with a piece of cloth, and then crouched in front of the snake demon, thinking about what was good about the snake.
Seeing that Yu Xiu ignored herself, the female corpse stood in place and hesitated for a moment, she picked up the snake eyes that were knocked down on the ground, and then lowered her head and silently followed Yu Xiu's side.
At this time, the sound on the street stopped, and the people in the snake catcher village gradually realized that the fight had stopped, and some bold people poked their heads out and found the corpse of the green snake demon, and they were suddenly so frightened that they couldn't help themselves and couldn't speak.
"The snake and the snake demon are dead!"
"The monsters are dead!" a cry resounded in the snake catching village, more intense than before, and the whole village was filled with the ecstasy of the rest of the disaster.
The old woman rushed out of the house and looked in disbelief at the two long snake corpses on the street.
As the shouts of joy became louder and louder, the people in the village beat gongs and drums, and the village was full of enthusiasm, and one after another men walked out of the house, all of them were discouraged and cowered.
When these men saw the snake corpse, their two swollen eyes tried their best to open them, as if they were trying to squeeze them out of their sockets, and they hissed one by one, pointing and stomping at the snake corpse on the street, like a madman through and through.
They still smell of a foul smell and look like they've been soaked in a dung pit. However, the people in the surrounding village did not pay attention to this, and they were all immersed in ecstasy.
Yu Xiu was stimulated by the stench that permeated the street, and couldn't help covering his nose with his sleeves, frowning at the people in the village.
"Dead, dead, all dead!" a man in the village was barefoot, in a circle, screaming to the sky beside Yu Xiu. There are not a few people in the village like each other around.
Yu Xiu glanced around and realized that this was the snake catcher man that the old man of the inn said.
These men avoided the snake demon by hiding from the stench place, defiling themselves, eating, drinking, and lazing in one place, so as not to be devoured by the snake demon first.
Although this means is to survive, this scene still makes him disdainful when it falls in Yu Xiu's eyes.
There are two or three hundred strong people in the whole village, and none of them are men.
Covering his nose, Yu Xiu just wanted to quickly choose a clean place and sort out the harvest this time. He held the red knife in his hand, looked at a certain place on the body of the severed snake, and then estimated, stabbed the tip of the knife half an inch, and slashed down hard.
There was a stabbing sound, and the snakeskin was peeled away, revealing the internal organs.
Yu Xiu didn't care about the filth, he directly stretched out his hand, rubbed it inside, and took out something the size of a baby's fist.
He stared at the object in his hand with a slight joy in his eyes. At this time, a voice sounded on the side: "Young man! Such snake gall, but rare!"
An old man walked out of the crowd of onlookers, and it was the old man of the inn. His eyes were red, there were cloudy tears in the corners of his eyes, and his eyes were surprised and sad.
However, seeing Yu Xiu following the voice, the old man in the inn immediately squeezed out a smile and bowed down.
"I don't know if the young man has a way to concoct this thing? If not, you might as well hand over the snake gall to our village...... "The old man said hesitantly.
When Yu Xiu heard this, he suddenly remembered that the snake catching village is famous for catching snakes and making snakes, and is very good at using snakes and insects to make medicines.
"Snake gall bladder has the effect of dispelling wind and dampness, cooling and brightening eyes, detoxification and disease, the ancestors of our village once caught a strange snake, the ancestors used different snakes to make medicines, quite miraculous, so that this village was established. ”
The old man of the inn chattered in his mouth: "The recipe of the ancestors has been passed down, if you use the old recipe to concoct this snake, it will definitely satisfy the young man......"
After listening to this, Yu Xiu made a slightly muttering gesture, and then nodded: "Yes." ”
He has no special method of concocting snake gall in his hands, he can only steam or mix it with wine, so it is too wasteful of the effect of snake gall, so he might as well hand it over to the snake catcher village directly.
Yu Xiu looked around, and suddenly pointed to a woman who was relatively cleanly dressed, and said:
"Come here, find someone to help my husband. The other party trembled and took the snake gall in Yu Xiu's hand, held it with both hands, and then respectfully knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times.
Immediately, the old man gathered a bunch of people, surrounded the corpse of the red-scaled snake demon, and discussed it one after another, from beginning to end, from scales to skin, and arranged the snake demon clearly.
However, Yu Xiu interrupted them and said, "All the scales and bones on the snake demon's body are your own, but the snake meat and snake meat are not moved, and they are collected by the poor dao." ”
The people in the village who were talking about it were slightly stunned, and Yu Xiu said: "Please burn another blast furnace, put the utensils for striking iron on the furnace, and the poor Dao wants to use snake meat and snake blood to make alchemy." ”
After saying that, Yu Xiu was not worried that the corpse of the snake demon was greedy for ink by the people in the village, he carried the red knife, flicked his sleeves, and walked to the old man's hotel.
"The night is not over, so let's go to sleep. Yawning, Yu Xiu threw down the last sentence.
"Thank you, Chief!" "Thank you, Shaoxia!"
"Shaoxia sleep well, if anyone dares to disturb him, I will not spare him!" ...... The crowded half of the street, noisy people, everyone is resting and agreeing.
After Yu Xiu returned to the hotel, he found a new room, and really lay down in it, closing his eyes, as if he had just gotten up and drank a cup of tea from the fight with the snake just now.
The female corpse followed him into the inn, and was standing beside the bed, looking at him motionlessly.
Yu Xiu stayed on the back of his left hand with his right hand, and fell asleep after a while.
Suddenly, after a moment of trance, he suddenly realized that he had become a long snake, dwelling in the shadows, with dead branches and rotten leaves.
Scene after scene flashed intermittently, although the residual memories of the red-scaled snake demon were not systematic, the perspective of the snake and insect still surprised Yu Xiu.
Half an hour later, Yu Xiu woke up from his dream.
As soon as he opened his eyes, there was a trace of pity in his eyes,
As he had been worried, this obsession did not bring him a complete set of exercises or skills, but only gave him a glimpse of the life of the Red Phosphorus Snake Demon, and it was too brief.
"Snakes and insects, although they become demons, they are not human after all, and it can be said that they are not good at exercises. Sitting up, Yu Xiu sat cross-legged on the bed, silently combing through the dream scene.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, "But this time it's not for nothing......
Speaking of exercises alone, although he didn't get any exercises from the soul of the Red Phosphorus Snake Demon, he could experience the snake-like posture, and once he practiced exercises such as Snake Fist in the future, it would definitely be of great benefit.
Yu Xiu sat cross-legged, immediately closed his eyes, his mind sank into the jade cicada, and selectively absorbed the memory of the snake demon.
After opening his eyes again, it was still dark, and Yu Xiu did not choose to continue sleeping, but pushed the door and walked out.
During the fight, the green snake demon once said that there was a treasure to offer, and Yu Xiu thought that this was just a word used by the other party to delay.
But judging from the traces in the memory of the red-scaled snake demon, this statement turned out to be true......
