fairy cage

Chapter 161
In the cave, the smell of blood appeared, causing Yu Lie's eyelids to twitch slightly.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw She Shuangbai staring straight at the lump of flesh and blood in front of him, and immediately understood that the other party probably had the same ideas as him, and he also planned to try to break through to the eighth-rank Taoist realm directly in the wild up!
Sure enough, She Shuangbai murmured:

"Brother Yu, if you and I continue to walk like this, if there is a slight mistake, we may become the prey of a monster. Even if we are lucky, if we don't lose our life or suffer a little serious injury, you and I have worked hard The basic physique of many years may be lost in one day, and it will be wasted for several years, it is even more difficult to break through..."

She spoke, looked at Yu Lie calmly, and said:
"Qianjun, Pindao plans not to go, and plans to collect some useful medicinal materials in this barren mountain and wild ridge to replace them and complete the transformation and promotion. I don't know if Brother Yu has any suggestions?"

Yu Lie listened, knowing that the other party's decision had already been made, but he just hoped that he could help to check for omissions and fill in the gaps, as well as collect some medicinal materials and lend a helping hand.

Without thinking too much, Yu Lie also nodded, and said in a deep voice:
"Yes. Even if you don't say it, the poor Taoist will mention it. You and I have been walking in the wild for more than a month. Although we haven't run out of food, but it will be soon. If we don't take advantage of it now When you have something, you start to prepare for transformation, and when the resources are exhausted, it will be even more troublesome."

He cupped his hands: "Brother She, just tell me. But if there is a need for Yu to take action, just say it."

After a pause, Yu Lie added: "I have been with you for dozens of days, and I am quite familiar with it. At this important juncture, don't be polite and rude."

Hearing Yu Lie's words, She Shuangbai's eyes also showed meaning. She stood up and sincerely thanked Yu Lie:

"Thank you brother Yu."

Yu Lie also stood up and bowed in return.

In the two people's words, there was actually one thing that was not clearly stated, but both sides knew each other well.

More than a month ago, the reason why they left for Qianjun was that they hoped to rent an aura quiet room in Qianjun to assist in their transformation.

This is not only because the conditions in the field are too difficult, and the aura quiet room will indeed help the transformation of the Taoist, but the more important reason is that neither of them dare to transform in front of each other.

Because no matter who transforms first, both parties have to worry about the other party, who may make a move during the transformation process, affecting its transformation, or even killing people.

And if the transformed person succeeds, the person who has not yet completed the transformation has to worry that the former will attack him and snatch the other half of the dinosaur flesh in his pocket.

It must be known that the environment the two of them are in now is completely wild, there is no law at all, and there are fierce beasts and monsters around them.

Here, no matter how good your talent is and how mysterious your background is, once you die, it will be like a dead dog, there is no difference, no one will know.

And if the two separate first and go to find a place to transform, then they have to worry that they will be hunted by ferocious beasts and spirits during the transformation, and become the belly of monsters.

After all, this place is no better than the "wilderness" within the range of the three towns of Heihe. This is a naked no-man's land, where fierce beasts run rampant, ghosts haunt, and there are all kinds of strange monsters, especially recently, creatures from the world of dinosaurs have descended. It's all fighting and fighting, and all kinds of beasts and monsters have already played their heads.

The reason why the two of Yu Lie were able to cross the field for more than a month without being seriously injured so far is that the two of them helped each other, and each had its own benefits.

Fortunately, after dozens of days of getting along day and night, sharing weal and woe, the relationship between the two has deepened, and they have somewhat understood what the other person is like. Coupled with the previous friendship, it can be regarded as a basis for trust.

Otherwise, without the mutual help and hardships along the way, the two of them really wouldn't dare to take the risk of trying to transform.

Among them, Yu Lie looked at the firm and fiery look in the opponent's eyes, and secretly thought in his heart:
"This person is undergoing transformation first, and I help him to watch, and I can also learn some lessons from it, which is convenient for me to use when I am promoted."

Breaking through from a ninth-rank Taoist boy to an eighth-rank Taoist, although it only needs to complete another change, the same as the previous few times.But this level is the transformation that determines the level of a Taoist's life. It is a transformation of a large realm, and its significance and difficulty are not comparable to transformation of a small realm.

If it succeeds, the Taoist will jump from a ninth-grade creature to an eighth-grade creature, condense his true energy, and then he can learn spells, completely transcend the vulgarity, become a person in the immortal way, live a little bit like a human in the mountains and seas, and have some privileges .

And if it fails, the loss and sequelae will be much more serious than the transformation of the small realm. An ordinary person basically only has three attempts in a lifetime.

Therefore, in the face of this kind of transformation, Yu Lie can't be too cautious, and he can witness others complete a transformation with his own eyes. For his own transformation, the harvest will undoubtedly be huge.

In the cave, the two spoke a few more words.

In the following time, the two of Yu Lie rested for a while and left the cave.

Since they were going to eat and transform, the two of them had to stay in a certain place for at least ten days and a half a month, so that they could easily arrange the cave and find out the situation of the monsters around them. They couldn't just find a place to live.

Under Yu Lie's suggestion, they finally used the few land-sinking talismans and stone-opening talismans in their bags to dig a cave by themselves on a straight and steep rocky cliff, and arranged the escape exits from the Three Caves of the Rabbit. .

After having a fixed residence, the situation of the two of them in the wild has improved a lot for a while. They don't have to eat and sleep in the open, exposed to the sun and rain, and live like savages.

It was another half a month, the two traveled in the morning, and returned to the cave at dusk, gathering herbs, cutting ganoderma, looking for wild animals, looking for all kinds of things that can help in taking food and transforming, and concocting them into medicine.

During the period, She Shuangbai saw Yu Lie's proficient alchemy skills with her own eyes, and she was even more impressed by Yu Lie.

And Yu Lie also saw She Shuangbai's alchemy skills for the first time, and fully understood why this person was in charge of the concocting hall in the alchemy room, and the alchemy path he chose was also the dragon's vein.

There is no other reason, this woman's alchemy skills are really stinky, and it is more suitable for her to make alchemy and medicine. If she is asked to refine alchemy, it will be a waste both for the medicinal materials and for her personally.

Twenty or thirty days later, there was a faint fragrance in the cavern on the cliff.

Yu Lie did not go out with She Shuangbai that day, but sat cross-legged in the cave alone.

The fluorite on his head shimmered, and he closed his eyes, patiently watching the furnace burn.

After a while, at the entrance of the cave, the rope swayed, and a vigorous figure, like an eagle returning to its nest, landed lightly on the entrance of the cave, holding the food it had found in its hand.

She Shuangbai walked back, glanced at Yu Lie, and saw that Yu Lie was just looking at the stove without other movements, so she walked into the cave familiarly, hung a live fish in her hand on the rock wall, and took off the fish. Hang up the coat on your body together.

In front of Yu Lie, she untied her hair, wiped her hands and neck, and changed into a comfortable Taoist robe, while muttering:
"You have been in the cave for three days, and you live like a little daughter-in-law without leaving the gate. Let me stay in the cave for a few days at any time, and you can go out to find food..."

In order to ensure that the two of them had enough blood energy and enough pills when they took Metamorphosis, they had quit pills for a long time, including Bigu Pills, and would never waste any pills unless necessary.

Yu Lie heard the other party's muttering, and the old god was still sitting cross-legged in front of the copper furnace, and just replied:
"Very good, then tomorrow I'll let you watch Lu Pharmaceutical, and I'll go out to look for food."

Hearing Yu Lie's ridicule, She Shuangbai was already very familiar with it, so she didn't care. She stretched her body, folded her sleeves, and walked to the front of the copper furnace, her eyes sparkling and she said:
"That's all it takes, isn't it?"

Yu Lie nodded, opened his eyes to look at the other party, glanced at the weakened figure and the wide robe of the other party, then closed his eyes again, and just said:
"Go kill the fish. You seem to have caught a spirit fish today. Call me when you finish it. Don't waste it."

"The dog's nose is really good!"

She Shuangbai clasped her hands together and muttered, "That's right, that's what Master Yu taught me."

She turned around and spat secretly: "Yu Bapi."

Yu Lie just hummed, and in response, he didn't even bother to open his eyes to look at the other party.

After these days settled down, their natures were exposed.

One is lazy and not particular, and the other likes to eat and open his mouth, but is poor and fastidious, bathing at least three times a day, both of them are a bit disgusted by each other.

Fortunately, Yu Lie is in charge of the power of refining medicine, and he is not used to the other party, so he just has the upper hand.

Not long after, charcoal was lit again in the cave, and after the spirit fish was roasted, the two held their teeth for sacrifice, and suddenly a more intense medicinal aroma rose in the cave.

Yu Lie suddenly got up and walked quickly towards the copper stove. She Shuangbai was biting the grilled fish, her eyes were also bright, staring straight at Yu Lie's back.

But she really didn't have confidence in her alchemy skills, and she didn't dare to make judgments, so she swallowed her throat and asked with some apprehension:
"All right?"

Yu Lie flapped the copper furnace, lifted the furnace cover, turned his back, secretly put the fire bugs in the furnace into his sleeves, and then looked into the copper furnace.

Amidst the smoke, his muffled voice sounded in the copper furnace: "Okay."

Upon receiving this answer, She Shuangbai stood up abruptly, twirling her sleeves, walking towards Yu Lie and Tonglu with a look of joy on her face.

When she squeezed out the rest of the row and looked at the thick layer of bright red ointment in the copper furnace, the surprise in her heart could not be suppressed:

"Very good, very good!"

This stove red powder is exactly what Yu Lie used five kinds of metal stones, cinnabar, realgar, alum, Zengqing, and cishi, and picked ganoderma lucidum and lingering grass from the mountains as a primer, mixed with a variety of fierce beasts and demon blood, and six grades of dinosaur lizards. The blood, the ointment made by banburying.

Its name is "Five Stone Powder", and it is the key medicine for a ninth-rank Taoist boy to be promoted to an eighth-rank Taoist!

The first change of the eighth-rank Taoist is called "swallowing gold and serving jade". In short, Taoists rely on their powerful internal organs to swallow gold and iron, eat jade, and squeeze oil from stones to maintain their health. vitality.

Only the viscera have such effects, and Taoists are qualified to swallow the spirit stone, chew it, and actively absorb all the spirit energy in the spirit stone, without wasting a single bit, so as to promote cultivation.

The function of the five stone powder is to weaken the five metal and stone materials, so that the viscera of the Taoist are as familiar as possible with the gold and iron things, and slowly change until the quality becomes the level of swallowing gold and jade.

The refining of this kind of medicine is not very difficult, Dao Tong can refine it.

But the key is that different people often refine the five stone powder with different toxicity, how to weaken or neutralize the toxicity of the five metal stones as much as possible is the key.

Originally, with the rest of the alchemy level, although he could refine the five stone powder, the toxicity of the obtained five stone powder could not be guaranteed. It is very likely that after Daotong took it, the viscera were tempered, but the toxicity was too much and it was difficult to get rid of it. It will greatly reduce the Taoist's lifespan, and he may die suddenly or be paralyzed the next day, and the breakthrough will fail.

Fortunately, the two of them now have sixth-grade flesh and blood as medicinal materials, and they can use the pure flesh and blood to neutralize the poisonous metal stones in the five stone powder, giving the human organs a chance to recover. Even life with death, no side effects.

This is why the two of Yu Lie were quite happy after getting the flesh and blood of the sixth-grade dinosaur.

Because for ordinary Taoist boys, it is better to use the blood essence of seventh-rank monsters to neutralize the medicinal properties of Wushisan, and it is almost impossible to use the blood of eighth-rank beasts to neutralize, even if it is the person who refines Wushisan. No matter how good the craftsmanship is, it is definitely no match for the two who use the flesh and blood of the sixth-grade dinosaur as medicine.

Five stones are scattered and refined.

Yu Lie stood in front of the copper stove, hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand, scraped off a little bit with his fingernail, and put it on the tip of his tongue to taste.

Immediately, a strong bloody smell rose from his mouth, shaking his spirits, his eyes lit up slightly, and the blood in his body became active.

She Shuangbai saw that there was nothing wrong with Yu Liepin's smacking, and there was no sign of poisoning at all. She was delighted, and she also stepped forward, touched some with her fingernails, and stuck out the tip of her red and tender tongue to taste.

After the effect of the medicine dissipated, She Shuangbai's complexion turned slightly crimson, and the turbulence of Qi and blood in her body was also stronger than that of Yu Lie.

This made Yu Lie, who was sucking on the medicine, vigilant, and quickly took out the detoxified milk of condensed cow and goat, and said:

"Is there a problem? Didn't practice well?"

She Shuangbai hesitated, didn't take the cow's and goat's milk, but used her fingernail to scoop out a large piece of ointment from the copper stove, and put it in her mouth to taste.

She closed her eyes slightly, her face became more and more crimson, almost bright and hot, and she inadvertently tugged at the skirt of her clothes, exhaling hot air, as if she had a fever.

This made Yu Lie, who was looking at it, feel even more drummed in his heart and lost confidence.

But She Shuangbai looked at Yu Lie with bright eyes, and said happily: "It's no problem, very good!"

She walked quickly around the copper furnace, moving like the wind, and chanted:
"Five Stone Powder has hot and strong medicinal properties. After taking it, it will cause people's whole body to heat up, and the qi and blood will be agitated. It has a faint effect of confusing people's hearts, and the medicine is half mixed with poison. But it is in this state of qi and blood boiling that Taoist people take it. Only by eating it can one have the opportunity to condense the 'true energy' from the blood of the whole body and step into the eighth rank..."

She Shuangbai's alchemy skills are not very high, but she can be regarded as a person in the alchemy way after all, she knows all kinds of alchemy classics clearly, and she is more proficient in reciting than Yu Lie.

Yu Lie looked at the other party walking with wind and vigor, and asked doubtfully, "Really?"

She Shuangbai was refreshed and replied in a loud voice:

"Exactly. With brother Yu's alchemy skills and the flesh and blood of a sixth-grade dinosaur, is it possible that he can also obtain Wushi powder, which is more toxic than medicine? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Pointing at herself, she continued to say excitedly:
"Brother Yu, don't think that Pindao is going mad right now. Wushi San is also known as 'Han Shi San'. After taking it, you must get 'Xing San'. That is, eat cold food, drink warm wine, pour cold water on your body, and take off your clothes to generate heat. If it wasn't for Yu My brother is still here, so the poor have to be like this."

Yu Lie heard this, and suddenly thought of this.

He took out the medicine book from his sleeve and looked at it, and found that this point was indeed recorded in detail in the book, and felt his body carefully, and found that there was nothing wrong with him except for a slight fever, so he completely Take it easy.

After closing the medicine book, Yu Lie touched the copper furnace and said reservedly:
"That's right, Pindao still has some talent in alchemy and medicine."
