No taboos

Chapter 15 Mountain Runner

Brother Hao screamed, and the huge spider crawled over quickly, opening its two huge fangs towards Brother Hao!

Wu Haishan has another trick up his sleeve, which he prepared for Xu Yuan.

But after a quick glance, I found that Xu Yuan had disappeared somewhere.

So cunning!

Wu Haishan couldn't care less. The only option now was to escape first.

He was valued by the Saint Lady because of that potion, but he was, after all, a ninth-rate alchemist, and his methods were quite sophisticated.

For example, this "external pill" was made from a kind of evil spider.

At this moment, he was holding another external pill in his hand, which was the life-saving capital given by his master. It contained the sword of a seventh-rate martial artist!

Wu Haishan transformed the fire in his stomach into two fire tails, attached them to his legs, and accelerated his speed several times. He knocked away a group of villagers with a loud bang and rushed behind the village gate in the blink of an eye.

The village gate was already wide open, and Wu Haishan was about to escape. He secretly made up his mind: After I escape, I will report to the meeting, and then I will bring a large army and kill everyone in this village!
Suddenly, a huge black shadow spread its wings and flew over from the dead old tree in the village. Its speed was several times faster than Wu Haishan with a fire tail!
In an instant, the shadow caught up with Wu Haishan, who shouted angrily, "Just in time!"

The external pill in his mouth was thrown out!
The pill flew up into the sunlight, with a metallic sheen on its surface. With a bang, a terrifying blade energy spurted out from it!
The black shadow had not expected that Wu Haishan had this trick up his sleeve, and in a hurry he could only take the blow.

when!
There was a loud bang, and the black shadow stumbled to the ground, but it did not affect his movements at all. A dark and shiny knife flashed.

puff--

A hatchet commonly found in the mountains cut deeply into the junction of Wu Haishan's neck and shoulders, almost splitting Wu Haishan's upper body in half!

Sparks hissed out from the wound, burning his own blood dry and emitting a fishy stench.

Wu Haishan's eyes were wide open, filled with fear, his Adam's apple rolled twice, and he made two unclear sounds, dying unwillingly.

The old hermit pulled the hatchet out of the corpse.

He was still wearing the cloak decorated with countless feathers, but about 30% of the feathers had been cut off by the knife just now!
The topaz glasses were also crooked. Xu Yuan hid in the dark and vaguely saw that the old mountain hiker's eyes were all white!

The old mountaineer adjusted his glasses, wiped his hatchet, glanced back at where Xu Yuan was hiding, and then left without saying a word.

The villagers rushed forward and divided up Wu Haishan's body.

This is the rule in the village. If there are any problems, the mountain runner will be responsible for handling them.

The villagers were responsible for cleaning up the mess.

As soon as Wu Haishan died, the giant spider stood there in a daze.

Its two huge fangs were only a foot away from Brother Hao's neck.

Hao Erge screamed: "Aunt Tang Si, help me——"

Mother came out of the house where martial arts practitioner Old Chen stayed last night. With a few strokes of her slender hands, she cut the spider silk and pulled Brother Hao out of the web.

Old Chen and several others were also "dealt with" by the villagers.

Xu Yuan came out trembling, shook the various goods in his hands, and forced a smile: "I am a real peddler, let's continue the transaction."

……

By mid-afternoon, all the goods brought by Xu Yuan had finally been exchanged.

There are a lot of mountain products around me.

There are a lot of good things in here, which can be sold for ten times the price if they are shipped out.

But Xu Yuan couldn't be happy at all.

The villagers were very haggling, so Xu Yuan had no choice but to bargain with them.

Xu Yuan also wanted to make a quick deal. He agreed to the villagers' request and left the place as soon as possible. However, he felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at him from behind the citrine lenses.

Xu Yuan didn't dare to reveal any flaws!

If I don't behave like a real peddler, that blood-drinking hatchet will chop my neck in the next moment!
After such a delay, it was too late to leave the mountain today, so I had to stay at Jiao Erbo's house for another night.

Seeing that he had done "good business" that day, Uncle Jiao raised the rent by ten cents, and Xu Yuan paid it without hesitation.

Xu Yuan did not sleep that night. Most of these mountain products were herbs and minerals. Xu Yuan "ate" them while refining them with the fire in his stomach.

"Bait", one of the various cultivation methods, simply means "eating".

It’s just different from what ordinary people eat.

Most ordinary people would die if they ate these.

The "bait" of the practitioners of the seven major sects is different, and Dan cultivators have the widest range of bait.

Eat anything - the fire in your belly can be refined into anything.

However, Xu Yuan has no one to guide him now, so whether he is cultivating life or cultivating alchemy, he can only grope his way forward on his own.

So after these "baits" entered his stomach, Xu Yuan could only refine them "according to different categories".

Herbs with similar medicinal properties are grouped together and refined into one pill.

The ore is simple, gold, silver, copper and iron are mixed and smelted into a "gold pill".

However, these minerals in Guiwu Mountain are extraordinary and far superior to ordinary ores outside.

Finally, Xu Yuan took out a gray-black external pill.

If you look closely, you can find that this external pill is like a piece of poor quality amber with a spider sealed inside.

This is Wu Haishan’s external elixir, which was taken away by the mother and daughter next door.

Xu Yuan spent a "high price" - three kitchen knives in total, to get them from the other party.

The other external pill that contained the power of a seventh-rate martial artist had only the power to strike once, and it would dissipate after use.

Xu Yuan washed the external pill clean and swallowed it, then refined it with the fire in his stomach and kept it for his own use.

The spider in the external elixir is an evil spirit. It was captured and made into an external elixir.

Xu Yuan estimated that this spider was roughly equivalent to a ninth-rate cultivator. The person who refined it into an external elixir was at least eighth-rate.

It’s just because the level of the spider evil spirit itself is not very high, and this external pill is also of the ninth-rate level.

After practicing all night, Xu Yuan felt that his level of alchemy had finally reached the ninth level.

The standard for entering the mainstream of alchemy is to condense five "pills".

Xu Yuan has just refined more than ten pills by classifying them into different categories.

Although each one is not strong, the number is enough.

His father had told him many stories about the Seven Great Gates when he was alive. After his father passed away, his stepmother had told them to him systematically several times.

The standard for promotion from ninth level to eighth level is to condense one's own "inner elixir".

What Xu Yuan has refined now are not real "inner elixirs".

Alchemists must be extremely cautious when condensing their inner elixir!

For example, Xu Yuan currently had no idea what kind of inner elixir he wanted to condense. He needed to hone his elixir cultivation skills for a while before he could find his direction.
