Chapter 33: Blood Temptation Jasper Toad
"You actually know everything, it's rare" Qing Xuanzi nodded and smiled, seeing that he recognized more than thirty kinds of herbs in this fish basket, but he didn't expect that Ye Hanyan had been influenced by the alchemy at home since he was a child, and he had to be read by his grandfather to find the grass scriptures, unless it was a rare medicine that had not been born for a long time, the general medicinal materials were basically known, but he heard Ye Hanyan say again,
"The master is trying to heal my wounds, but my wounds are almost healed, don't be so troublesome"
"Now the first thing to solve is your meridian problem, these are all auxiliary medicines, there is still a lack of a pair of main medicines, make a potion soaked for 7749 days, or can melt away the medicinal power of the fire yang fruit in the meridians, you can know if you try it or not, there will be no surprises when the time comes" Qing Xuanzi said with anticipation,
"Really" Ye Hanyan was also pleasantly surprised, if it could really be like this, it would be even better, "What medicine is still missing?"
Qing Xuanzi smiled slightly, feeling Ye Hanyan's joy, and sighed very emotionally in his heart, the child can be taught, "there is a lack of a jasper toad"
Ye Hanyan was shocked when he heard the jasper toad, this is very rare, it has a miraculous effect on the meridians, and it is the best among the toads, and there are two kinds of white jade toads, which have the effect of driving away evil spirits, and there is another kind of ice toad, which is the best in poisoning and detoxification, and cannot be used in medicine, but can only be kept around, and if this jasper toad is not a unique problem like Ye Hanyan, it can be solved by taking some toad blood for general meridian problems.
"This jasper toad is not an ordinary thing, you need a fate to see it, the jade toad has a spirit, see it sincerely" Ye Hanyan muttered, he was already a little relentless.
"Don't worry, there is one in this lake, see me catch it tomorrow" Qing Xuanzi laughed, feeling comfortable, this is an unexpected joy, this kid actually knows medicinal materials, isn't it even more rare, monks walk the world, hoe the strong and help the weak, kill demons and demons, these are all means to have.
The next day, Qing Xuanzi took out a long sword from the house, came to the edge of the pool, and put a big stone on the side of the pool, on top of three stones, sharpened the stone with a long sword, dug up the stones, made a stone tripod, soaked the medicinal materials picked yesterday into it, and made a wooden cover, covered it, and then carried the fishing rod and fish basket, and did not forget to tell Ye Hanyan when he left, to be well realized, and then start to practice after understanding the heart method, Qing Xuanzi said that this is called sharpening the knife and not cutting wood.
Ye Hanyan, as always, practiced the soul method first, and then danced the folding fan, this time he found that he could use the attack method, although he still defended more and attacked less, after all, the progress was not small, and he had to have a time to understand this set of fan methods again, last night he asked Qing Xuanzi for the method of expelling, Qing Xuanzi simply taught the method of expelling things, the art of the sword, and asked him to understand it on his own, if he didn't understand, he could ask, but it is estimated that he will not be able to reach the exorcism for a period of time.
However, Qing Xuanzi obviously underestimated Ye Hanyan, his folding fan was unintentionally made of blood, and he communicated closely with himself, so he had an innate advantage over others. When Qing Xuanzi taught him the exorcism, he began to comprehend, he obviously felt that he was different from Xu Chenfeng when he practiced, when his soul was scattered, the heart method followed, and there was a sense of spiritual connection between himself and the folding fan, but it was intermittent, and it could not be done in one go, it was obvious that it was his own mental method, and the soul method was not yet mature, so he would continue to comprehend the mental method, and at the same time practice the soul method, both of which moved at the same time, shocking the world, this is a method of one heart and two uses, but it can also be understood, because his soul method and the heart method can simply be mixed together, the two complement each other, move all at once, no need to deliberately, it is natural。
In the evening, Qing Xuanzi returned to the house with a calm face without saying a word, it was obvious that there was no trace of the jasper toad, Qing Xuanzi found all kinds of flying insects, spirit fruits, and did not catch them, and was sitting in the room drinking wine, Ye Hanyan smiled slightly when he saw this, and did not speak, he came to the kitchen to bite his fingers, only put about half a bowl of blood, Ye Hanyan's face was pale, one was standing unsteadily, holding his forehead, sitting for a while, before coming to Qing Xuanzi's room, Qing Xuanzi saw Ye Hanyan like this, startled, and quickly took the pulse, found that nothing was caused by blood loss, and his heart was a little settled, and he scolded, "Little brute, what are you doing here?"
"Master, this jasper toad is not interested in the general flying insect spirit fruit, you take this blood, find a little finger-thick earthworm with a crystal clear and slightly blood-red body, put it in the blood, soak it for twelve hours, wait for all the blood to enter the earthworm's body, I will go to the lake with you at the third watch at night, and then use the blood to attract it, or it can be fished out" Ye Hanyan was already injured and lost too much blood, which released so much blood, and he collapsed after saying a word.
"Why didn't you say this earlier, hey, how did you know?" Qing Xuanzi said in surprise while helping him onto his bed, "Have a good night's rest, let's go tomorrow night" Ye Hanyan smiled dismally, unable to speak, Qing Xuanzi settled Ye Hanyan properly, and went out to find the earthworm that Ye Hanyan said.
In fact, Ye Hanyan heard Xuanzi say that it was a jasper toad, and he knew that the general method could not be eliminated, and it was recorded in the Grass Hunting Book that the jasper toad was a rare spiritual thing, usually feeding on flying insects and spiritual fruits, and occasionally eating gray toads and snakes larger than his own size, but there was a fatal flaw that could not be stopped by blood earthworms, especially earthworms that had drunk human blood, and swallowed them when they opened their mouths, and spiritual objects became stupid in an instant. I didn't want the master to do this for myself, so I put this small half bowl of blood by myself.
At the third watch, the two tiptoed to a stone in the lake, Qing Xuanzi nodded to Ye Hanyan, and put the blood earthworm in his hand in front of the stone one foot away from the water surface, Ye Hanyan will drip a few points of blood during the period, and also drop a drop in the water, the two of them hid behind the stone, only half of their heads were exposed, looking at the movement, the blood earthworm was full of blood in Xi, although it was not dead, it could not escape, only stretched its body in place, touched back and forth, and kept for a moment, what I wanted was this effect, if it was a dead jasper toad and did not look at it, even if it was a blood earthworm, this was the best effect。
About a stick of incense in the world, the blood droplets on the ground are about to dry up, and the blood earthworm is not moving, at this time the blood has been completely dispersed, if there is really a jasper toad in the lake, it should come out at this time, Ye Hanyan thought of this, and when he was puzzled, he saw the water surface about two zhang away from the blood earthworm, scattering a ripple, but there was no sound at all, and he saw a green dot, which came out, Qing Xuanzi was surprised, and took a look, it was a jasper toad, this method was really feasible.
This jasper toad is worthy of being a spiritual thing, it came out, half silent, thinking that it was also observing, Ye Hanyan was vigilant in his heart, and did not dare to move, for fear of disturbing it. But when he blinked, he found that the jasper toad was gone, and he was wondering to himself, but he saw a small green toad head popping up at a distance of a zhang from the water surface, but it was the same as just now, motionless, but when the jasper toad came, he didn't see the water surface shaking, how did this come over?
Qing Xuanzi was also surprised, he had only seen it once thirty years ago, and he was not sure if it was still there, when he was fighting with the fish demon, the spirit beasts in the water all ran away, and he saw such a glance on the water, but he was sure that it was this jasper toad, but he didn't expect it to be so cunning.
When he was thinking, his eyes condensed, and he saw a green light flying ashore, straight to the blood earthworm, this jasper toad finally couldn't stop the temptation of the blood earthworm, Ye Hanyan was also a sudden in his heart, staring at it, he saw that the jasper toad in this green light poked out a foot-long tongue, rolled up the blood earthworm, and saw that he was about to succeed, between the lightning and stone fire, Qing Xuanzi's true qi was released, and he suddenly pressed the jasper toad that was half a fist big, and at the same time the figure flew out, stepped on the void, and one step behind the jasper toad, Qing Xuanzi's right hand reached out, and three fingers clamped the back of the jasper toad, until then the jasper toad's tongue stretched out fell back into his mouth, and the middle section of the blood earthworm had been bitten in his mouth, only exposing the two sides in that turmoil.
Qing Xuanzi landed gently, returned to Ye Hanyan's side, looked at the jasper toad in his hand, and his joy gradually revealed, obviously he didn't expect it to be so easy, but this jasper toad was held in his hand, but it was motionless, only two raised eyeballs were rotating there, very smart, look at Ye Hanyan in that look, and then look at Qing Xuanzi, and then suddenly swallowed the two blood earthworms that were still outside into his stomach.
"Haha" Qing Xuanzi raised his head and laughed, obviously he didn't expect this jasper toad to be so greedy, but what he didn't expect was that when this jasper toad took advantage of his head to look up, he actually kicked his legs, flashed green light, and walked away.
"I want to run" Ye Hanyan was also a greedy scene of the Taoist just now, and he was funny in his heart, but his eyes did not leave this jasper toad, this is seeing this, he snorted lightly, his eyes were full of surprise, it was really not an ordinary thing, and it could not be treated as usual.
"Huh" but seeing this jasper toad kicking out of Qing Xuanzi's hand, it was a green light that wanted to run into the lake, just when there was still a foot distance from the water, a big hand, grabbed it, it turned out that Qing Xuanzi did not relax his vigilance, but this jasper toad escaped just now, but it was not Qing Xuanzi's hand slippery, but the jasper toad himself was really angry, and broke three fingers, obviously he did not expect that this little jasper toad had begun to practice.
"What's the matter, master?" Ye Hanyan saw the jasper toad in Qing Xuanzi's hand escape, and he was shocked when he let go,
"This jasper toad has been around for a long time, and it has already learned how to absorb the aura of heaven and earth and transform it into its own true qi" Qing Xuanzi said softly, "I'm afraid it's been more than three hundred years."
Ye Hanyan was shocked in his heart, this was indeed unexpected, but it was also understandable that this kind of spiritual creature was already endowed by nature, coupled with the special environment, it was difficult to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and it was difficult to think about it, and he stared at this jasper toad for a long time, and he couldn't see a difference.
The two returned to the house after a while, Qing Xuanzi put the jasper toad in the fish basket, pressed it with a stone slab, and nailed his long sword to the side of the fish basket to shock, the long sword was blue and light, and the light was soft, as gorgeous as the moon in the dark night.
Early in the morning, Ye Hanyan got up, came outside, and saw that the blue light of the long sword was still there, and the jasper toad in the fish basket was motionless, lying there, as if closing his eyes to recuperate, smiling slightly, and then walked under the tree and began the day's practice.
