The water mist red clam looked like an ordinary toad, but was about two or three times larger than them. Its back is covered with red, match-head-sized tumors that protrude from its body surface.
Lin Peiru's experience told her that those red tumors should be the venom glands of the water mist clam.
The King of Hell said to Lin Peiru: "Yes, this is the water mist red clam."
Lin Peiru said: "This Water Mist Clam does not look as scary and ferocious as imagined, but it is not lovable either. It looks ordinary and does not look like a highly poisonous thing."
The King of Hell smiled and said: "It seems that you still haven't kept in mind what the second senior brother taught you."
Lin Peiru touched her little head and said, "Second senior brother, what are you talking about? Can you say it again?"
"People should not be judged by their appearance, and sea water should not be measured by their measure. Don't judge people by their appearance, let alone measure the toxicity of poisons by their appearance. In this way, you will be fooled by their appearance and you will suffer a big loss."
"Second Senior Brother, I really remembered this time, what is so great about this Water Mist Crimson Toad? Apart from being bigger than the average toad, I don't see any other abnormality about him."
"Did you see the red raised sarcoma on the back of the Water Mist Clam?"
Lin Peiru nodded.
"Those red sarcomas are the venom glands of this water mist clam. When she senses danger approaching, the numerous glands on her body will spray out mist-like venom. The venom disperses in the air like white mist. It’s the same, so it’s called the water mist red clam. As long as you are poisoned by the water mist red clam, the blood in the poisoned person’s body will solidify in an instant, and the heart will stop and die.”
After hearing this, Lin Peiru sighed: "I didn't expect that the poison of this water mist red clam would be so overbearing. It's true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured."
The King of Hell said: "Now you have remembered it. Today we will learn here first. I am worried that you will not be able to accept so many things at once."
Lin Peiru had wanted to leave this poisonous medicine garden for a long time, but she was forced to say so due to her promise to the Lord of Hell. Now that the Lord of Hell offered to leave, Lin Peiru was of course very happy.
"Okay! I will carefully memorize what I learned today, second senior brother, don't worry!"
Before leaving, the King of Hell warned Lin Peiru: "This is very good. Remember, you must not come to this poisonous garden alone without my company. You don't understand the poisons here. If you are not careful, you will be poisoned." Your life will be over, you know?"
Lin Peiru replied: "Second Senior Brother, I remember, without you here, I will never come to this poisonous garden alone, don't worry!"
The King of Hell nodded and said "Yeah".
Lin Peiru followed the hand of the King of Hell. As she walked, she murmured to herself: "If it weren't for my damn oath, I wouldn't be willing to come to this poison garden." She recalled that she was killed by the deadly fire python just now. Attack, she couldn't help but tremble with fear, "As soon as I came in, my life was almost decided here. In this case, would I come by myself? Unless my head was caught by them." "
The King of Hell listened to Lin Peiru mumbling to herself behind him, and asked: "Junior sister, what are you mumbling behind me alone?"
"No...no...nothing, I'm just remembering the toxic pharmacology of the poisons you just taught me!"
Yama's hand didn't say anything else, he just said in his heart: "It seems that Junior Sister is a little interested in poison, why don't I pass on my mantle to him, but this may be her whim, I'll take a look and say it again!"
The two left the Immortal Medicine Valley and came to the Poison Immortal Cottage. The King of Hell continued to teach Lin Peiru the lessons planned for today. He said to Lin Peiru: "Junior sister, do you know why I want to teach you the toxicological knowledge of these five poisonous insects today?" ?”
Lin Peiru shook her head and said, "Please give me some advice, senior brother."
The King of Hell said: "Do you know what the five poisons people call the five poisons are?"
Lin Peiru still shook her head, still not knowing.
"The five poisons people in this world often talk about are poisonous snakes, poisonous spiders, centipedes, scorpions, and toads."
Lin Peiru said: "Senior brother, please don't tell me that the five poisons that the people call are the five poisons you just showed me! They are not as vicious and vicious as you have here."
"Yes, the five poisons they call are these five poisons. It's just that what I have here is an upgraded version of them, but they all belong to those five poisons, so we can say that they are the five poisons."
Although Lin Peiru didn't agree so much, who said she was on someone else's territory? Since she was on someone else's territory, she could only sing that song on that mountain, and just follow what the King of Hell said, just say it was five poisons, it would have no effect on her anyway.
Yama Shou continued: "These five poisons are the basis for learning poison techniques. As long as you master the basic toxic principles of these five poisons and understand the way to use poisons, the practitioner has already started."
Lin Peiru said: "It's that simple. It seems that this poison technique is easier to learn than medical skills!"
The King of Hell smiled and said: "Is this... simple? I don't know how many people have been stuck in the realm of the Five Poisons, unable to break through in their entire lives."
Lin Peiru asked in confusion: "Why is this happening?"
"Because everyone understands the poison theory and poison techniques from the five poisons differently, and the truth they understand is related to the direction of their future practice in poison techniques. The truth that some people understand is a dead end. There is no way to go, and they have to go back to the same place and gain a deeper understanding of the Five Poisons." This is why some people stay in the realm of the Five Poisons their entire lives.
When Lin Peiru heard this, she said in despair: "It seems that there will be another person in this world who will never be able to leave the realm of the Five Poisons."
The hand of the King of Hell did not immediately reflect the implication of Lin Peiru's words. He blurted out and asked: "Who is it?"
"Of course it's me. How can a person like me who has no interest in medical poisons possibly break through the realm of five poisons? I'm afraid only a ghost will believe that I have this ability. I want to break through the realm of five poisons." The probability is that even that tiny miracle will never happen to me."
Originally, the King of Hell did not expect her to be able to penetrate the realm of the Five Poisons. She just wanted to test whether Lin Peiru was talented in poison techniques and see if she could make a difference in the practice of poison techniques.
The King of Hell comforted Lin Peiru and said, "You are discouraged before this begins. Believe in yourself, you can do it."
"How many kilograms do I have? Don't I know yet? Second Senior Brother, if I can't break through this cultivation bottleneck, what should I do?"
The King of Hell said comfortingly: "Just do your best, don't put too much pressure on yourself.
You can meditate here and I won't disturb you. Whenever you feel tired, just go back and rest by yourself. "
After the King of Hell left, Lin Peiru began to sit cross-legged, closing her eyes and concentrating, trying to understand the troubling five poisons. I saw poisonous snakes, spiders, centipedes, scorpions, and toads constantly flashing in Lin Peiru's mind.
But she still couldn't figure out what the connection between these five unrelated poisons was. If there was any, it was just that they all possessed highly toxic substances. Poison was what they had in common, but this alone meant that No problem.
Time passed by minute by second, and in the blink of an eye, the time of a stick of incense slipped away from Lin Peiru quietly, leaving no trace.
Lin Peiru was still sitting motionless in meditation, her mind still spinning at high speed. She connected all the possible clues related to the five poisons, but she still found nothing.
Lin Peiru helplessly opened her eyes full of despair and looked at the sky outside. It had become bright red, and the fiery red sunset looked particularly tired against the bright red sunset.
Lin Peiru stood up and said to herself in despair: "It seems that I am really just another person in this world who cannot break through the five poisons."
She thought for a while and then said: "But I am not interested in the art of treating poisons, let alone the enlightenment of the five poisons. This is simply impossible for me.
Anyway, I have tried my best. As for the second senior brother, I can be considered worthy of him. Second senior brother, it’s not that the junior sister doesn’t work hard, it’s just that the junior sister is really not the material for practicing poison. It seems that you will be disappointed when you leave this time. "
After Lin Peiru finished speaking, she clasped her hands together, bowed around, and said, "Second Senior Brother, please don't blame me. I really tried my best."
After Lin Peiru left, the King of Hell walked out of the back room. He looked at Lin Peiru's retreating back, shook his head with some disappointment, sighed and said: "Hey... he has never been a material for this medicine and poison practice. It seems that There will be no successors to the skills of me and that old immortal."
It turned out that when Lin Peiru was meditating, the King of Hell did not really leave the Poison Immortal Cottage. He was hiding in the back room and secretly observing Lin Peiru's understanding of the five poisons to see if she was really talented in practicing poison. , whether she can become the heir to his lifelong legacy, but now it seems that Lin Peiru is unable to shoulder such an important responsibility.
