Bai Yue jumped out of bed and pointed at the paper on the table with her paw: "I'll tell you, you write."
Looking at Bai Yue's serious look, Zhou Rui felt a lot less suspicious of Bai Yue. He picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table and waited for Bai Yue.
Bai Yue squinted her eyes and said with a swaying head: "Three qian for Andrographis paniculata, five qian for peach leaves, and one prunella vulgaris..." Bai Yue said while Zhou Rui was busy remembering it. After a while, Bai Yue said
Yue named more than a dozen medicinal materials.
Bai Yue saw that Zhou Rui was still writing, and then said: "These dozen herbal medicines are auxiliary medicines, that is, ministerial medicines. This elixir also contains the most important monarch medicine." Zhou Rui's eyes widened as he listened.
Bai Yue said the name.
Bai Yue said: "The inner elixir of a rat with a white head and a black body."
"Inner elixir?" Zhou Rui didn't understand what Bai Yue said.
"The inner elixir is formed by the inner energy in the body of a demon beast that has been cultivated into a spirit. The inner elixir turns golden yellow after a thousand years. The color of the inner elixir will also be different depending on the power of the demon."
"So that's it." Zhou Rui looked at what was written on the list again, scratched his head, and said: "The herbs you mentioned are all common medicinal materials. You only need to buy them in the drugstore. But..."
"But what?" Bai Yue asked.
"But... I don't have that much money." Zhou Rui spread his hands and made a helpless gesture.
"..." Bai Yue didn't know what to say this time. She took out a recipe for elixir, but she didn't expect that this kid was still a poor man.
Zhou Rui threw the pen aside and asked: "Is there any other way? It's best not to spend money. You can also spend money. It's best not to exceed ten taels of silver." As he spoke, Zhou Rui put his pen aside.
He took out the money bag he was carrying and dumped it all on the table. "You see, that's all."
"It's enough for me to buy fish." Bai Yue looked at the money on the table, thought for a while and said, "It depends on your luck. There will be some bitter cold grass growing where we catch white-headed and black-bodied rats.
Herbs are hard to find. There are so many people here to compete. If you just find someone rich and sell them, you should be able to get a lot of money back. But whether you can find them depends on your luck."
The two of them walked quickly and slowly, and arrived before dark, on a mountain peak near the Dongjian Sect. Bai Yue pointed to a cave entrance and said, "When I lived on this mountain, I knew everything about it. Bai Shou
The black rat is in this hole."
Zhou Rui pulled out the sword on his body and said, "Hmph, stay with me and let you see my strength."
Seeing Zhou Rui's confidence, Bai Yue said, "Be careful when you go in. This rat with a white head and a black body is a second-level monster. It is almost at the same level as you now, or even slightly higher than you."
"Don't worry!" As he spoke, Zhou Rui came to the cave. The cave was pitch black, similar to the cave where he met Bai Yue.
Just as Zhou Rui was moving forward cautiously, Bai Yue suddenly used some demonic power and spit out a small ball of fire from his mouth. The fireball slowly advanced in front of him, lighting up the entire cave.
"I didn't expect you to be so capable." Zhou Rui looked at the fireball in front of him, a little surprised.
"Shhh." Bai Yue signaled Zhou Rui to keep his voice down. Zhou Rui covered his mouth. At this moment, a "hissing, hissing" sound came from the depths of the cave. Hearing it, people couldn't help but tremble.
shudder.
Bai Yue whispered to Zhou Rui: "It's right in front. I'll lead it here first. You can hide it carefully. When it comes out, just kill it with one sword."
Zhou Rui nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry."
Bai Yue was agile and jumped deep into the cave and disappeared. Zhou Rui carefully hid aside and held the sword tightly in his right hand. He waited for the white-headed and black-bodied rat to come out and stabbed it with his sword.
After a while, two tragic screams were heard from deep inside. For a while, Zhou Rui couldn't tell who made the scream.
Suddenly, Bai Yue shouted: "Stick it quickly!"
Zhou Rui couldn't help but stabbed the white-headed, black-bodied rat with his sword. Hearing the rat demon scream, Zhou Ruika chopped off one of its front paws.
This angered the white-headed, black-bodied rat in front of me. I saw that this rat was about one meter tall and two meters long. It was huge. As the name suggests, it had a white head but a jet-black body.
fur.
Zhou Rui watched the rat demon attack and shouted: "Rat demon, look at the sword!"
A sword move did not hit the rat demon's body. Instead, Zhou Rui's body was exposed. After all, Zhou Rui consumed too much internal energy during the daytime battle. Although the sword technique was stylish, it was not practical.
Seeing that Zhou Rui was about to be bitten by the rat demon on the back, at the critical moment, Bai Yue suddenly jumped out from nowhere, aimed at the rat demon's heart, and hit the target with one blow.
This blow was so powerful that the entire body of the rat demon flew up and was thrown heavily five to six meters away. It lay motionless on the ground.
Zhou Rui was shocked. He didn't expect Bai Yue to be so powerful. Now that he thought about the fight with Bai Yue in the cave, if he had been hit by this punch, even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would probably have a narrow escape.
But now Bai Yue was lying on the ground motionless, and the blow just now really consumed a lot of internal energy. Zhou Rui hurriedly ran over and picked up Bai Yue who was lying on the ground, shouting Bai Yue's name loudly.
After a while, Bai Yue opened her eyes and said feebly: "What's it called? I'm not dead yet. Go and take out the inner elixir of the rat demon."
Zhou Rui got the order and took out the rat demon's inner elixir with the sword in his hand. He looked at it in his hand. The inner elixir was white and flawless, like a piece of white jade.
At this moment, Bai Yue also recovered her strength, jumped on Zhou Rui, and said to Zhou Rui: "Put it away, and then go inside to see if you can find bitter cold grass."
Zhou Rui nodded, put the inner elixir into his pocket, held Bai Yue in his arms, and continued walking into the cave.
