The years when I explored the fairyland

After half an hour,

On the back of the mountain.

A bigger bonfire was lit, and the firewood burned with a crackling sound, emitting sparks.

Chu Zhou sat by the bonfire again, his face slightly pale, as if he had lost too much blood, but his demeanor was calm and composed.

A large pot was placed on the bonfire, and another pot of medicine was boiled, emitting a strong herbal smell.

The King of the Power Hammer Cao Bao had already left. He had recognized Chu Zhou, the new worshiper, and came here just to get to know him again, talk a few words, and make an appointment to meet next time and drink together.

It was also during the brief chat that Chu Zhou realized that the reason why this Black Mountain leader was able to establish a bandit name and set rules in this green forest was that Wen Xiangguan Zhou Wu had also made great efforts.

Especially in the government, Zhou Wu had established connections and spent a lot of favors, which also made the Black Mountain people safe.

It is worth mentioning that this big boss does have a lot of talents under his command. The eight or nine people he brought with him are either tough, or good at martial arts, or good at tracking, or excellent at light work, or good at medicine. Almost everyone has their own expertise.

The poison in Yi Huai's body was the antidote picked out by one of them from a bunch of bottles and jars collected from the big head cutter.

And Chu Zhou also learned about their whole experience from Wei Fangjie.

At first, Yi Huai and Wei Fangjie were in full force, risking their lives to attack, and they were still able to hold on.

But they were facing a marrow-training warrior after all. After opening the meridians, the internal qi trained the marrow, and the Yijing cut the marrow, and they were reborn.

Even if they were not as strong as Chu Zhou, they were far better than ordinary warriors.

After a long time, they could not resist.

Especially on Yi Huai's side, the poison of the little head cutter entered his body, and he became more and more shaky.

At the critical moment, the drunken old man Feng Yan took action, using one hand to seal and the other to spit fire, and he was able to hold off the big and small head cutters.

Until the masters under Cao Bao came forward, a group of black-clothed men rushed up to fight, not only with tacit cooperation, but also with good strength.

It also stunned the big and small head cutters and the tattooed swordsman.

The tattooed swordsman was cunning. Seeing that the situation was not right, he turned around and ran after a fierce attack. Several black-clothed men chased him. As for the final result, it is still unknown.

As for the big and small head cutters, their movement was purely dependent on the strong man, but they were wearing triple armor, and what they sacrificed was speed and agility.

With the drunken old man in the front, and three or two black-clothed men cooperating, they finally took down the killer of Tingfeng Tower.

Their heads had been cut off, which could be used as vouchers to exchange for a lot of silver and good things at the government office.

These were not exactly the same as what Chu Zhou had learned from the drunkard old man, but Chu Zhou had to accept Cao Bao's kindness.

After all, he had saved the two junior brothers, so when Cao Bao came again, Chu Zhou was also a little enthusiastic, which led to the later happy conversation.

It was also from Cao Bao that Chu Zhou roughly knew that the several worshippers of Wenxiang Temple were basically the same as him.

Each of them had their own industries and careers, but they also received Zhou Wu's help and settled many things. They were considered to have a share, which was a bit like a partner.

But there is no doubt that they stood together in the matter of overthrowing the Yunya Sword Sect.

After Cao Bao left, the drunkard old man Feng Yan also left soon.

He did not return to Hongtu City, but rushed to Wenxiang Temple overnight to report the things here to Zhou Wu.

Blood Bell Meng Gongyi was really not a small figure. As the senior brother of old man Yun Lie, even in the Yunya Sword Sect, he was one of the top leaders.

His death would definitely cause quite a stir, so he would report the news in time to give Wenxiang Temple time to react.

Of course, before leaving, they also made an appointment to meet next time to drink and eat meat.

You see, even in a society where martial arts are respected, human relations are equally important.

As for Wei Jinkui, Ada and Aer, he sent them out to pick up the bodies.

To be precise, the body of Meng Gongyi, the blood bell, was nothing, but the blood sword and the bell that almost took his life were not vulgar things, so they naturally could not be thrown away.

After they all left, the campfire was naturally quiet, leaving only Chu Zhou, who squinted his eyes, watching the flames jump and weighing the gains and losses.

Before coming, Chu Zhou actually had some calculations, thinking about the reaction of Yunya Sword Sect and anticipating assassination.

However, he really didn't expect that the other party would actually send such a congenital martial artist.

In other words, his strength grew fast enough. If he still maintained the level when Zhou Wu tested him, he would probably have fallen here.

It can be seen that there is no peace in Anyue City.

I just hope that it can be delayed for a little longer, so that he can have more time to grow and accumulate.

Thinking back, he turned his head slightly, looked at the person next to him, and asked: "Okay, tell me, tell me about yourself?"

Beside the campfire, in addition to Chu Zhou, there was also a lame young man, and there was a backpack next to him.

Although he was sitting, he looked uneasy. From time to time, he would steal a glance at Chu Zhou and bury his head lower.

Until Chu Zhou asked him a question, he was relieved and explained the situation like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

"My name is Gu Chuanping, my father is Gu Hua, the head of Xiangyun Hall, one of the three major sects in Hongtu City.

I used to be a top playboy in Hongtu City and a frequent visitor to the brothel. Although I was scolded by my father for being unlearned, I lived a free and easy life.

But just a few days ago, everything changed overnight.

I only remember shouts of death, wailing, and all kinds of noisy footsteps everywhere...

Before I could react, I was arrested by my father. My third uncle and fourth uncle protected me as I fled. They took me away from a secret passage.

But we were discovered when we were leaving the city. My third and fourth uncles were all killed to cover me. They gave me this backpack before they died.

Then, I kept hiding and fleeing in this mountain, running from one place to another like a mouse crossing the street. I only dared to ask for some dry food and clothes when passers-by passed by. "

“However, the Iron Horse Hall and the Foundry Sect are still unwilling to let me go.

They sent people to search everywhere, chasing me with no way to the sky or to the earth. Even if I wanted to leave here, they blocked the mountain road. "

Chu Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "You mean, they have been blocking you here for several days?"

"Yes!"

"There was no large-scale mountain search?"

"That's not true. We sent some elite disciples to constantly search and hunt."

"That is to say, they don't want to make a fuss known to everyone, but they don't want to let you go. No, in other words, they actually don't care about you as a person, but they care about the things in your hands."

Thinking of this, Chu Zhou tilted his head slightly, looked at the backpack, and asked, "What on earth do you have here?"

"Oh, here it is, let me show it to you."

The lame young man quickly dragged the basket over, took out a few herbs on it, and then took out a square object wrapped in oil paper.

He opened the oil paper and wiped his hands to make sure they were clean before taking out the items inside and handing them to Chu Zhou.

Chu Zhou lowered his head and looked down. By the light of the fire, he could see that it was a very thick book, with three words on it that were extremely eye-catching.

——"The Gathering of Auspicious Clouds"

After casually flipping through a few pages, Chu Zhou found that there were many descriptions of various diseases and prescriptions for the symptoms.

This is actually a medical book? !

Chu Zhou tilted his head and asked, "What does Xiangyuntang do? Aren't you blacksmiths?"

"Who told you that I, Xiangyuntang, am a blacksmith?"

The lame young man had a question mark on his forehead and quickly explained: "Although Red Earth City has many blacksmiths, our Xiangyuntang is a medical and martial arts sect.

The ancestors of my Gu family started their careers with medical skills, and later acquired a lot of martial arts. After mutual verification, their martial arts advanced greatly and opened this Xiangyundang. "

"The first half of this book "Xiang Yun Ji" is about treating diseases and saving people, and records many treatment methods for difficult and complicated diseases.

But the most important part is actually the second half, which is mainly about medicine for warriors, and there are many elixirs suitable for warriors at different stages of practice.

Even innate warriors have everything they can use, but the materials are hard to find, so making them is naturally not easy. "

"However, just taking two or three of the elixirs can meet the needs of some warriors, and Xiangyuntang can gain a firm foothold in Red Earth City.

After all, even here, warriors have to practice and get various kinds of powerful medicines to nourish themselves. "

After hearing this, Chu Zhou flipped through the pages again and saw that there were indeed many prescriptions recorded on it, and even the medicines were extremely expensive.

Chu Zhou had heard of things like century-old ginseng, thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, Polygonum multiflorum, Iron tree flower, etc.

But there were more, such as Xianxia flowers, Xinghui fruit, silver rattan bamboo, pearl crocodile dragon liquid, earth Yan wood, etc. Not only did he know them, they all felt magical just looking at them.

However, what was even more magical was that he saw a material, the blood of spiritual beasts!

Chu Zhou asked again: "What is this spiritual beast?"

"Spiritual beasts are naturally not things, but beasts with enlightened intelligence. People like to call them monsters."

"Is this really possible?"

"Of course, these spiritual beasts have developed wisdom, and each of them hides in the mountains and swamps, easily not showing up.

However, getting one is a great benefit. The skin, flesh, bones, and blood can almost be used as medicine, and they are all great tonics. "

Chu Zhou remained skeptical and said, "I've seen a lot of this recipe, but why haven't I seen it anywhere else? It's only in your book?"

Isn't it a lie? "

"I've never seen this before. However, when my grandfather was still alive, he seemed to have prescribed a batch of elixirs using the blood of spiritual beasts. It is said that it became the best elixir."

The lame young man Gu Pingchuan paused and then said: "As for the viewer not hearing it, I think there are two main reasons.

First, it’s not that there were no previous prescriptions, but ordinary animals were enough, such as tiger bones and bear bile.

Secondly, I remember that the blood of this spirit beast can be used as medicine. It seems that you need to be innate to be able to use it. If you are innate or below, you can't catch the spirit beast at all, so needless to say. "

"As for more specific details, I, a prodigal son, really don't know much."

As if he was afraid that Chu Zhou would ask again, he quickly turned the basket over and rolled out a stone with a cold metallic light.

"This is?"

"Meteorite is said to be an iron ore that fell from the sky. It is of extremely high quality and is the best material for forging weapons.

This piece was acquired accidentally by my father and has been collected for several years. "

After a pause, the lame young man continued: "Those people are chasing me. If it wasn't for this medical book, it would be for this piece of meteorite."

The first update is sent...
