Chapter 471: Vine Monster (Part )
Chapter 471: Vine Monster (Part )
Lin Xuan was stunned.
As soon as Jiang Li saw him, she asked about "Fellow Daoist Nan". Lin Xuan had a vague guess in his mind, but now that he heard the news with his own ears, he was still speechless for a long time.
After all, Nan Xi had saved their lives. If Nan Xi and Chen Lie had not arrived in time that day and broken the evil formation, he would have died at the hands of Xuan Ling Zhenren.
"How could it be him?" Lin Xuan couldn't believe it. "Why would he do this?"
Jiang Li sneered: "Because he's hungry."
"These Taoist disciples, including you and me..."
Every word she spoke was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart and soul.
“To him, it’s all delicious food!”
Lin Xuan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he heard.
"You mean, Brother Nan... is actually a man-eating monster?!"
"To be exact, what he eats is the human soul!"
Jiang Li's eyes were cold, "Especially for people like you and me, who have great cultivation, it is a great tonic."
Lin Xuan had a dull expression.
It’s unheard of that there’s a demon that feeds on souls!
"What kind of monster is this?"
"This monster is called 'Soul-catching Worm' and comes from the upper realm..."
Jiang Li explained the origins of the soul-sucking insect one by one.
This was also the first time that Shen Muchun learned the true identity of the mirror monster and he was terrified.
No wonder the entire family of the Duke of Zhenguo and the little grandchildren of the royal family could not find out the cause of death. It turned out that the soul was devoured!
Yun, Princess Ruili, and the thirty-four disciples all had their blood sucked out because the soul-sucking insect controlled the poisonous insect and used blood as a medium to devour their souls!
He thought about how he had once had his soul swapped and had a near-death experience, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and was filled with fear.
"As for Nan Xi, his real name is Nangong Xihe, and he is the most wanted criminal by the imperial court. However, I guess that his soul has long been devoured by the soul-sucking insect, and now he is just a container for the monster to live in."
Jiang Li took out a book and handed it to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan took it numbly and took a closer look. "The New Legend of the Mirror Monster"?
He looked at Jiang Li in surprise. Why did he give him a book of strange stories?
Shen Muchun asked: "Master Lin, you haven't read this book?"
This book was once very popular in the Chu State, the Jurchens, and the Mongols. With the development of sea transportation, it has spread to the Southeast Asia.
Lin Xuan said ashamedly: “I have never seen it.”
"Daoist disciples are devoted to Taoism and don't care about worldly affairs. I didn't know that this book exists." Jiang Li said with a smile.
"Although the events recorded in this book are slightly exaggerated, they are basically true." She said seriously, "After reading this book, you will understand why I want to fight this man to the death."
Shen Muchun smiled and said, "This book was compiled by our prince himself, and then polished by the current emperor, and then written by Xiao Xiaosheng. As soon as it was published, it was sold out."
Lin Xuan said solemnly: "I will study it carefully!"
"Well, you two are tired after a night, go and rest first." Jiang Li said, "I will tell you about the plan later."
"Yes!"
Lin Xuan carefully put away the book and asked respectfully, "Master, what would you like to eat for lunch? I will go and prepare the ingredients."
Speaking of food, Jiang Li's eyes immediately lit up.
She smiled and said, "You can go and rest first. There are many streams in this valley. You can just catch a few fish. You can steam them or braise them. I am not picky about food."
Shen Muchun added: "Your prince doesn't know how to pick fish bones, so remember to remove the fish bones first."
He, Jiang Li and Xie Changan often dine together. Every time he sees Xie Changan picking out fish bones for her, she has no idea how many times she has complained about it.
Lin Xuan was startled, then a smile appeared on his face: "Then let's make fish soup."
"Okay, go ahead." Jiang Li smiled slightly.
After sending the two away, she summoned the red fox through a contract.
"Does Fellow Daoist Fox have some free time?"
"Yes, yes. What do you want, fairy?"
The red fox received the call and immediately rushed to the valley.
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Let's go get that ivy while we have some free time."
The red fox said happily: "Okay, I was just about to report to the fairy, that vine is too weird!"
Jiang Li was surprised: "Why?"
The red fox summoned a group of little demons, who carried two sedan chairs woven with vines. He and Jiang Li each took one, and they set off leisurely towards the heart of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Red Fox told Jiang Li that he found the "Rejuvenation Ivy" in a very secret cave according to the direction Jiang Li passed to him through the contract.
As soon as he approached the cave, the red fox felt an extremely strong vitality and was immediately overjoyed.
The fairy asked him to look after this spiritual plant, so wouldn't that mean he could absorb the spiritual energy from it every day?
But when he entered the cave and saw the vine full of white flowers, the colorful vine suddenly stiffened, quickly retracted its flowers, and curled itself into a ball. The rich vitality disappeared without a trace!
The red fox was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to teach this ungrateful vine a lesson. However, as soon as he approached, he was blocked by an invisible barrier and could not move forward an inch.
The vine quietly extended a vine and kicked him out of the cave!
The red fox was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He was so angry that he started cursing outside the cave.
This happened several times. After all, the red fox was a big demon that was about to transform, but it didn't expect to be defeated repeatedly in front of a vine.
That stingy vine didn't even give him any spiritual energy!
The red fox was so angry that he jumped up and down, but he didn't dare to do anything to it. He could only order his younger brothers to guard outside the cave and not to enter.
Jiang Li couldn't stop laughing, and was also very surprised. What the mirror spirit found for her was actually a living wood-type demon plant!
Anyway, the spiritual plant needed for the medicinal bath is just the fruit of the ivy, so she can easily grow this magical vine.
Wood-type demon plants are also extremely popular in the world of cultivation. Not only are their entire bodies full of treasures, their combat power is also quite good.
Mirror Spirit gave her another big gift!
Jiang Li was very happy and decided to be nicer to Lord Jing Ling in the future. She also looked forward to the other spiritual plants.
If these spiritual plants were alive, then she would have five spiritual pets with all five elements!
If I want to set up a five-element formation in the future, won’t it be possible to complete it instantly?
She was not worried at all whether these spiritual plants would be unwilling to recognize her as their master.
If you don’t want to, just chop it up and make a medicinal bath!
The red fox accompanied Jiang Li into the cave. When the ivy saw the red fox, it immediately assumed a ferocious posture.
But when Jiang Li's figure appeared behind the red fox, the rejuvenating ivy was startled, and the vines instantly stretched out. White flowers bloomed one after another, and the whole cave was filled with fragrance and vitality.
The red fox was stunned. The flattering vine actually stretched out a branch in front of the fairy, and a flower suddenly bloomed.
Jiang Li was very happy. She took the flower and put it in her hair. She smiled and said, "Thank you. I like it very much."
Huichunying immediately danced with joy.
