It was a dreamless night, and I don't remember how I fell asleep last night. I just let this girl Sun Ruoyi lead me astray.
After washing up, I did some Qigong exercises for a week. I remembered that this time I came out and encountered a lot of opportunities. When I was looking for medicine for Mr. Su, I went to the outskirts with the master once. At that time, Tang Ning was still young, and the master took him with him to avoid fear. There was a danger and he couldn't take care of it, so he didn't go deep, but the master described the place to him. There was a Diyang tree in the restricted area.
It was an uninhabited restricted area, and the locals did not dare to enter. All electronic products, including the compass, were malfunctioning. When I was a child, I came with my master, and he always led the way.
This time, Tang Ning waited around for a long time before actually breaking into the restricted area. After entering, she first explored the dense forest. After searching for a long time, she found several very old medicinal plants. The hundred-year-old ginseng tree was given away. Found there.
According to the location of the landform described by the master, Tang Ning searched for a long time in the restricted area before she found the valley. She was careful along the way and encountered many dangers, including various poisonous and wild beasts. If she met Tang Ning with intelligence, she would run away first. There were also some idiots who were roasted into Tang Ning's stomach. Of course, there were also some that Tang Ning probably couldn't handle, so she had to avoid them and take a long detour.
Finally, I found the Diyang tree according to the place described by the master. It grew in a very hidden place, under a crack in the ground in a valley, and ordinary people could not get down without the help of tools.
Tang Ning followed the instructions of her master. For such rare medicinal materials, it is best to only take enough to avoid damaging the main body. The medicinal essence of the Diyang tree is all on its golden leaves, which are easy to identify. Tang Ning picked five pieces. I carefully put it in my backpack, and then I didn't rush to leave. I just wandered under the crack. I would never come to such a dangerous place many times in my life to see if I would find anything else.
Unexpectedly, he accidentally discovered a deep natural cave. This cave was very hidden. The entrance of the cave was on the vertical crack wall. Maybe this was Tang Ning's opportunity!
Tangning slowly went deep into the cave, and a natural cave suddenly appeared in front of her. Stalactites hung upside down, and the dripping water formed a stream. There was a bulge in the meandering part of the stream, with a fiery red branch growing on it. The small tree is very similar to the legendary Zhuguo recorded in the classics. If it is really a Zhuguo, then this place may be an unknown Yang vein, but the direction and size of the vein are unknown.
The two fruits on the small tree were fiery red in color, crystal clear, and obviously ripe. Tangning was overjoyed and was about to pick them when she was suddenly attacked. The opponent was very fast, and the sight in the cave was not good. She only relied on the surrounding stone walls and caves. On top, there is a faint fluorescence from an unknown stone.
After a sneak attack, Tang Ning could only defend herself. If it weren't for the opponent's bright red eyes, Tang Ning wouldn't have been able to dodge. However, Tang Ning also figured out that the opponent was not that big.
Later, Tang Ning discovered that the opponent's sneak attack was actually not very lethal.
In this way, Tang Ning protected her face and neck and picked a red fruit despite her injuries. The other party bit off another one in a hurry and stopped attacking Tang Ning.
Tangning finally saw it clearly. It was actually a small white mink with fiery red eyes, white fur and sharp claws.
A man and a mink looked at each other across a small tree. Tang Ning was curious. Since the mink arrived before him, why didn't he just eat it? Would it be Tang Ning's turn to get this opportunity?
You must know that if it is really a red fruit, according to the records in the elixir classics, it must be eaten immediately. This kind of spiritual fruit cannot be preserved by ordinary means, and the medicinal effect of the aura dissipates quickly. Why didn't this little marten eat it?
While thinking about it, Tang Ning discovered that the little mink was holding a red fruit the size of a jujube in its mouth. Its cheeks were bulging, and it looked cute. Its red eyes were looking at her unblinkingly, and it didn't run away. You know If it ran away, Tang Ning probably wouldn't be able to catch it.
Tangning was confused, what did this mean? Still want to grab this one in your hand? Tang Ning looked at Xiao Diao and put the red fruit in her hand towards her mouth. She wanted to see if she wanted to snatch this gadget, but she found that Xiao Diao's expression seemed to be one of expectation. Yes, it was a very human expression. expect.
Tangning tried to take Zhu Guo away from her mouth. Xiao Diao's expression changed again, and she actually looked unhappy. What was going on?
Tang Ning brought the Zhu Guo to her mouth again, staring at the little mink. This time she pretended to eat it, chewing it with her mouth, and made exaggerated swallowing movements.
Pretending to finish eating, he just looked at the mink like this, staring at its mouth, making a greedy expression, but making no further moves.
Xiao Diao stared at Tang Ning. For a while, he slowly chewed the little thing in his mouth. He ate it very happily. Finally, he stretched out his pink tongue and licked it. He was still not satisfied and finished eating.
Tang Ning seemed to understand why. Such a spiritual little thing wanted to see if she was okay after eating it, and then test the poison on herself!
It is so smart and spiritual, but it turns out that it has never dared to eat.
Tang Ning also became playful and wanted to see how smart this little thing was. She stretched out her palm and found the red fruit lying quietly in her palm.
Xiao Diao saw the red fruit in Tang Ning's hand, and her eyes were full of doubts. She turned to look at the fruit tree, and then looked at Tang Ning.
Tang Ning pretended to put the red fruit into her mouth again, and while chewing it, she turned her hand over and saw that the red fruit was still in the palm of her hand.
The little marten understood, and his fur burst out with anger. He squeaked and scratched the ground with his little paws.
Tangning laughed out loud watching it, it was so interesting.
Suddenly, Xiao Diao paused, turned around and ran out. Then Tangning heard a snap, the sound of something falling into the water. The sound was very clear in the silent cave.
Tang Ning looked over and took a look. It turned out to be the little mink that had fallen into the water. Tang Ning just looked at it. This little thing was so smart. Tang Ning was afraid of its tricks and laughed.
After watching for a while, she found that the little mink was still motionless. Tangning used her toes to pull the little mink out. The little thing's fur was wet and its eyes were closed.
Tangning knelt down and took a closer look. She found that it didn't look like she was pretending to be dead. She stretched out her hand to grab it and found that the little thing was hot. Tangning put her hand on the pink belly and found that the little mink's body was full of spiritual energy. It fainted from the spiritual energy. It seems that Zhu Guo is real.
Tang Ning didn't have any evil intentions. Taoists valued cause and effect. Tang Ning would not harm such a spiritual little thing. She placed the little Diao under the fruit tree and couldn't help. She could only look at the little Diao. Good luck.
Looking at the red fruit in the palm of her hand, Tangning didn't know what the consequences would be if she ate it. Judging from the appearance of the little mink, it was definitely not poisonous.
Thinking about what the master said about my opportunity, it should be this red fruit. Just when I was about to eat it, I looked back at the little mink behind me, took off the shoelaces, and tied the little mink to the tree like a puppy. superior.
She picked up the red fruit and ate it without hesitation. It was so sweet. Soon the majestic spiritual power began to spread. Tang Ning immediately began to use her energy to absorb it with all her strength. Later, she relied entirely on her subconscious energy.
It is true that there is no time to practice, and no one knows how old it is when it is cold!
After Zhu Guo's spiritual power was completely absorbed, Tang Ning didn't know how much time had passed, but her cultivation had actually improved to a level that was comparable to fifty or sixty years of hard training.
Tang Ning woke up from hunger. She almost became the first person to starve to death while practicing. She quickly took out the dry food she brought in her backpack and ate some with the water from the stream. She ate very little. She didn't eat for a long time because she was afraid her stomach wouldn't be able to bear it. .
Suddenly I remembered something and looked back, oh, the little mink is still tied there! Touching the belly of the little mink, I felt that the spiritual energy in the little mink's body was almost absorbed. It was such a beautiful little thing. The absorption by its own body was not much slower than mine. It should be waking up soon.
Suddenly I became more playful, so I picked up one of the little mink's hind legs, leaned down and took a look, haha, there were no eggs, it was a female.
He took off his shoelaces and tied them. After thinking about it, he took out a piece of dry food and a piece of ham and put them near the little mink's mouth.
It is fate to have this blessing with it.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but they are still waiting for help over there! Hoping that I hadn't missed it, I turned around and left quickly.
Tang Ning didn't see that the little mink behind him slowly opened his eyes, sniffed the dry food and sausages with his pink nose, looked at Tang Ning's back with a look of disdain, and slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
