"It's much faster than I thought. You're lucky!" Seeing Junior Leopard bring three kinds of herbs into the valley at noon on the third day, Xue Wuya was a little surprised, but not surprised. "What happened to your hand?"
"Oh, there was an accident. When I was picking Wandering Flowers, I met a fire-breathing monster. That's why it's like this!" Junior Leopard said lightly. He was not afraid of being seen through. There were countless strange beasts in Misty Mountain, many of which could spit fire. Junior Leopard had seen several in the past two days. Xue Wuya didn't know that Junior Leopard's hand was burned by his own eyes. He didn't care much about Junior Leopard's explanation. He just took out a white porcelain bottle and handed it to Junior Leopard. "This is the best Jinchuang Ointment. Apply it on your hand and it will be healed in less than two days. Also, there are about ten days left. Within these ten days, you should practice the swordsmanship and body movement that I taught you. Ten days later, on the night of the full moon, help me subdue the Evil Toad!"
Junior Leopard's heart suddenly jumped.
Ten days later, on the night of the full moon, subdue the Evil Toad!
"What's wrong? Is there a problem? "Xue Wuya seemed to feel the change in Junior Leopard's heart and asked.
"Oh, nothing, just a little …!"
"Are you afraid?!" Xue Wuya looked straight into Junior Leopard's heart and laughed wildly. "Boy, don't be afraid. There's nothing to be afraid of. That monster has been injured by me. Now it hides in the cave and refuses to come out. However, as long as I make the Tihu Incense, it will not be able to resist the temptation of the full moon. You don't need to be afraid. Just help me at that time!"
"Yes, Master. Thank you!" Junior Leopard didn't dare to say more and left the valley.
"Tihu Incense, together with the power of the moon, will lead the Evil Toad out. This is a good opportunity!"
At the edge of the cave, Junior Leopard sat cross-legged, his hands covered with Jinchuang Ointment. His eyes flashed, thinking about what Xue Wuya had told him. He still had 13 bottles of Drowsy Drug left, and he was very clear about its effect. "If I put Drowsy Drug in Xue Wuya's food, when he fights with the Evil Toad, the drug will take effect. Won't it be a great advantage for me?"
Anyway, Xue Wuya's Blood God was provided by him, and the Drowsy Drug was so strange that it melted in water. When the Drowsy Drug was melted into the blood of a beast, and then Xue Wuya drank it …
It was a wonderful idea, but …
"However, his words can't be completely trusted. Can the power of the moon and the Tihu Incense really lure the Demonic Toad out? What if he miscalculated and I put the Drowsy Pill in it? Then I'll be in big trouble! " Thinking of the possibility of failure, Junior Leopard suddenly shivered. He was a person who cherished his life and was also a cautious person. Other things were fine, but this kind of thing was related to his life. He dared not be careless. Xue Wuya said that he could lure the Evil Toad out, but what if there was a mishap?
If he acted without authorization, what would happen if the Evil Toad didn't come out? He didn't dare to imagine.
"The so-called fear of wolves in front and tigers behind should be what I am now, right?" Junior Leopard laughed at himself in his heart. "Ten days later, the effect of the Jinchuang Ointment will wear off. In three days at most, my hand will be healed. As for the swordsmanship …" Thinking of the swordsmanship that Xue Wuya taught him, he smiled bitterly.
"Is this a move that a human can practice?!" Junior Leopard could only describe it with one word, "abnormal", when he thought of the abnormal requirement of controlling the Internal Qi within the body and the abnormal requirement of controlling the whole body's strength.
Of course, Xue Wuya didn't expect him to learn this move in a short time. This swordsmanship was very sharp and brilliant, and Junior Leopard learned it on the spot. Although Xue Wuya had explained the swordsmanship in detail to him a few days ago, the swordsmanship was broad and profound. If he could understand it after one explanation, then Junior Leopard wouldn't be Junior Leopard, but a Sword God.
What's more, after two days, he almost forgot all the things that Xue Wuya had explained to him. He was not a smart person.
For Junior Leopard now, this swordsmanship was extremely difficult to practice. After trying twice, Junior Leopard gave up this meaningless behavior.
It was impossible for him to master this move in ten days.
"With Xue Wuya's knowledge and vision, he should know that it's impossible for me to master this move in a short time. Then why did he teach me?!" Junior Leopard put down the sword in his hand and sat cross-legged on the ground. "However, when he was teaching me, he seemed to be very strange. I could barely do the key points, but if I wanted to do that, I had to stay in a fixed place for at least an hour and then use all the Internal Qi in my body to release that move. Could it be that the mystery lies here?!" Junior Leopard sat cross-legged on the ground, with the dagger in his hand in front of him in a mysterious posture, motionless. In the beginning, nothing happened, but after a while, when Junior Leopard began to operate his Internal Qi according to the mental cultivation method of swordsmanship taught by Xue Wuya, a sharp Qi Power gradually appeared on his body, and the dagger in his hand began to emit a layer of misty light. Now that he was very close to Xue Wuya's valley, he did not dare to use his strange eyes, but when he calmed his mind and concentrated, the operation of his tendons and meridians appeared in his mind. He saw the Internal Qi of Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire that he had painstakingly practiced, following the mental cultivation method of swordsmanship and flowing in his body, slowly changing.
The Internal Qi of the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire was of the fire property. Junior Leopard had some power when he used it now. However, after the mental cultivation method of the swordsmanship, the Internal Qi of the fire property actually condensed into a stream, becoming thinner and thinner. Finally, it condensed into a Sword Qi as sharp as a needle.
The Sword Qi was formed!
Junior Leopard's body also moved involuntarily. His left hand, which was holding the dagger, drew a strange arc in front of him. His body, which was sitting cross-legged, suddenly jumped up, as if a spring had suddenly jumped out from under his buttocks. The sword was out, and his body fell down, like floating clouds and flowing water. Falling on the ground, Junior Leopard's body swayed twice, and he took two steps back before he could stand firm. "Bang!"
"Bang!" There was an explosion in the air. It was the sound of Junior Leopard's sword piercing the air.
"What a powerful sword move!" Although it was only for a short moment, the sword light just now had burst out, and in the blink of an eye, he had actually stabbed nine times with his sword, forming a sword flower in the air, piercing through the air. That was why there was such an explosive sound just now.
However, after all, he was young and his body was limited. After stabbing nine times, not only was his Internal Qi exhausted, but his strength was also exhausted. It was like a person who could only run one kilometer suddenly ran three kilometers. He almost collapsed on the ground.
Before he could take two breaths, Junior Leopard felt weak all over, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. The tendons and meridians that had been injured last night twitched again.
His strength was exhausted, and his tendons and meridians were damaged. Junior Leopard also slowly tasted the taste of this move. "The key of this sword move is the mental cultivation method of using the sword. Once the mental cultivation method is used, the body will involuntarily perform this move. However, the power of this move depends on how much Internal Qi and physical strength I have."
"That's not right either!" Junior Leopard narrowed his eyes and thought, "Even if I have enough physical strength and Internal Qi, and know the mental cultivation method and movement of using the sword, I can't display the greatest power of this move. This sword move still needs to have the understanding and knowledge of swordsmanship. I have never learned swordsmanship. However, even if I haven't learned swordsmanship, and my Internal Qi and physical strength are not enough, I can still display a good power. However, the price is that my blood essence will be completely sucked out by this move!"
Thinking of the sword flower that burst out of his sword, Junior Leopard's eyebrows relaxed. "So, this should be Xue Wuya's idea? My combat capability can't help him in the fight with the Evil Toad. It can be said that I'm insignificant. But if I use this move on the Evil Toad at the critical moment, maybe it will have an unexpected effect. Is this the so-called last straw that breaks the camel's back?! "
Junior Leopard sat down again and carefully looked at the short sword in his hand. His left hand gently touched the delicate blade, feeling the fine lines on the blade. "Regardless of the Internal Strength, martial arts, or moves, I'm afraid it won't be good to be stabbed by this sword. After this sword move, I have no strength to resist at all. My tendons and meridians are all damaged. If the Evil Toad counterattacks, I will definitely die. In this way, Xue Wuya will not have to do anything. After all, he is a Level Eight expert. It's really shameful for him to kill a Level One rookie like me." Junior Leopard's eyes flashed a few times, and he gradually saw through Xue Wuya's intention.
"That is to say, my value will come to an end after 10 days. Even if I don't die in the hands of the Evil Toad, I will die in the hands of Xue Wuya. Hehe, it seems that I have to give it my all!" Junior Leopard looked at the small pit at the bottom of the cave where he buried the Drowsy Drug. He clenched his fists and made up his mind.
It was not that he didn't think about escaping from here. But even if he could escape from the Misty Mountain and escape from the palm of Xue Wuya, then the mountain village that had raised him for more than 10 years would be finished.
After getting so many benefits from Xue Wuya, how could Xue Wuya let him go?
Xue Wuya caught him outside Qingyang Market, so it was not difficult to find out his identity. With his usual means, if he couldn't find him, there was no need to think about the consequences, right?
Then, he could only give it his all!
"The most important thing is whether the Evil Toad will come out on time and when it will come out. However, since Xue Wuya has made such preparations, he should be very confident. Otherwise, he will lose face in front of me. According to his character, he will never do such a thing. His Tihu Incense should be effective!"
Junior Leopard comforted himself in his heart. At this time, it seemed that there was no other better way. Even if this time Xue Wuya didn't want to kill him, he had to take action. Compared with Xue Wuya, he didn't have much time to delay. The longer he delayed, the faster Xue Wuya's injury would heal, and the slimmer his chance would be.
However, Xue Wuya was after all a Level Eight expert. When he, a Level One rookie, really faced him, he still didn't have much confidence.
Although the effect of the Anesthetic Pill was strong, to put it bluntly, it was just a powerful sleeping pill from his previous life, but without side effects. With Xue Wuya's cultivation, although he would definitely be affected, it was impossible for him to fall asleep like an ordinary person or a beast. As long as he could hold his breath, if Xue Wuya wanted to kill him, it would be just a piece of cake.
Now, there was no time for Junior Leopard to think too much.
However, he didn't think too much. Just when he thought about it, another problem appeared. Should he put the Anesthetic Pill on all the animals, or only on one animal? Once he put the Anesthetic Pill on all the animals, the risk would increase exponentially. Not to mention the possibility of being discovered halfway, the efficacy of the Anesthetic Pill would also be dispersed. It was still uncertain whether the Anesthetic Pill could play its intended role!
"If I do it, the efficacy of the Anesthetic Pill must not be dispersed. All the Anesthetic Pill can only be put on one animal. Only in this way can the effect be maximized. What I need to ensure now is that this guy takes the Anesthetic Pill once — wait —!" Junior Leopard suddenly thought of a safer idea.
"I can't guarantee whether or not the Evil Toad will come out or when. But if the plan is good, I can guarantee the time when Xue Wuya takes the Anesthetic Pill. Although Xue Wuya can defeat the Evil Toad every time, he has to pay a great price. He will be exhausted and will need to eat the animals to recover his strength. If I let him take the Anesthetic Pill at this time, won't the chance of being hit be greatly increased?"
Thinking of Xue Wuya's pale face after the battle with the Evil Toad, Junior Leopard began to think. Indeed, this was a safer way. At least he didn't have to worry about so many uncontrollable factors. He didn't have to worry about whether the Evil Toad would come out, when it would come out, whether the Tihu Incense would really work, etc. All these risks could be avoided. However, at the same time, without the Evil Toad's hindrance, he had to face the exhausted Xue Wuya alone. Thus, it seemed that it was better to find a chance to take the medicine first. When he fought with the Evil Toad, he would drag him down and both of them would be injured. In this way, the success rate would be the highest.
Thinking of this, Junior Leopard's head began to hurt. He disappointedly found that in the end, his life was still in the hands of the unknown luck.
Strength, everything was due to the strength. In front of Xue Wuya, all the plans seemed pale and powerless. Even if he was seriously injured, even if he had to fight with the powerful Evil Toad until both of them were injured, even if he still had 13 bottles of Anesthetic Pill, all these could not make him feel at ease. He was still in a disadvantageous position.
A little carelessness would lead to a situation of death.
Junior Leopard sighed helplessly. He was very clear that 10 days later, if Xue Wuya really subdued the Evil Toad, even if he didn't die, his value would be greatly reduced. Xue Wuya could even let the Evil Toad search for blood food for him. At that time, it would be the time of his death.
From this period of contact, Junior Leopard knew that Xue Wuya's heart meridian was injured by the White Blademaster Lu Shaoyou's Sword Qi. It was impossible for him to recover in such a short time. But at that time, Xue Wuya was too seriously injured to run far. He could only hide in the depths of the Misty Mountain and fight with Lu Shaoyou. No matter how powerful Lu Shaoyou was, it was impossible for him to turn the Misty Mountain upside down. Moreover, Junior Leopard and Lu Shaoyou met by accident. There was no real blood feud between them. Would Lu Shaoyou really fight with him in the Misty Mountain?
The answer was no.
During these days of recuperation, although he didn't completely recover, his pneuma had recovered a little. Looking at Xue Wuya's complexion these days, even if he didn't eat blood food, his complexion was much rosier. Now he was not sure whether Xue Wuya would be as exhausted as the first time after fighting with the Evil Toad, or whether he would need a lot of blood food to replenish himself. Everything was unknown. Therefore, the last plan seemed to be safe, but there were still many uncertain factors hidden behind it.
"There's no other way. I'd better explore it first and then make a decision!!"
… …
… …
"Teacher, what's so special about the Tihu Incense that it can draw out that coward?!"
Facing Xue Wuya, although Junior Leopard was afraid, he was not as restrained as when they first met. Xue Wuya's attitude towards Junior Leopard was also considered good, no longer a little stiff like before.
However, such a relaxed attitude made Junior Leopard feel more uneasy. He didn't know whether it was a psychological effect or something else. Now, every time he saw Xue Wuya, he instinctively felt a trace of killing intent, which made the sense of urgency in his heart stronger.
He couldn't let Xue Wuya recover anymore. If he did, he really had no chance at all!
This was the most real feeling that Junior Leopard had now.
"Tihu Incense is this thing!" Xue Wuya opened his palm. Junior Leopard looked over and saw a layer of greyish-yellow powder floating on his palm.
Junior Leopard's nose sniffed and smelled a faint bitter smell. This bitter smell had a wisp of strange fragrance.
"This kind of Tihu Incense is specially used to catch evil beasts. After being ignited, it has a fatal attraction to the evil beasts that have just opened their spiritual wisdom. It can also confuse their minds. Although this Evil Toad has just opened its spiritual wisdom and has some cultivation, if I ignite this Tihu Incense on a full moon night, it will not be able to resist the attraction of the full power of the moon!" Speaking of this, Xue Wuya's face revealed a trace of a cruel smile. "As long as it comes out, it can not escape from my palm!"
Junior Leopard smiled and nodded, but his smile was obviously a little stiff.
"Why, you don't believe me!"
Xue Wuya was a character and immediately noticed that Junior Leopard was not right. He asked unhappily.
"I dare not. It's just that I was a little frightened last time. Now when I think of that monster, I still have some palpitations!"
"Hahahaha, you are such a coward. That thing only has a huge and ugly appearance. Apart from being poisoned, it doesn't have much Divine Sense. However, it has at least practiced for hundreds of years, so the Inner Elixir in its body should be of some use. That's why I have to kill it and take its Inner Elixir!"
"I understand!" Junior Leopard lowered his head and replied. Seeing Xue Wuya's confident appearance, his heart gradually calmed down. Since Xue Wuya could say so, he must have at least 80% confidence in his heart. Otherwise, on the night of the full moon, if Xue Wuya burned the Tihiu Incense in front of him, he would not be able to get it out. Wouldn't that be very embarrassing?
"How's your hand?" Just when Junior Leopard was deep in thought, Xue Wuya suddenly asked.
"It's fine now!" Junior Leopard hurriedly said and stretched out his hand which had already recovered. "Master, the Jinchuang Ointment is miraculous. In just a few days, it's completely healed. But that Jinchuang Ointment …"
"It's just a bottle of Jinchuang Ointment. It's no big deal!" Xue Wuya said carelessly. "That swordsmanship, have you practiced enough?"
"I am slow-witted!" Hearing Xue Wuya mention that swordsmanship, Junior Leopard bowed down. "The swordsmanship that you taught me is really profound. I have practiced for a few days, but I have no clue. Please punish me!"
Hearing this, Xue Wuya's eyes flashed and he said, "No clue? You can't be blamed for that. You've never practiced swordsmanship before. Although I've tried my best to simplify the swordsmanship, it's still a little difficult for you to master it. However, this concerns the success or failure of my plan. You must achieve results in these few days! "
"But, I …!"
"Forget it. Anyway, I have nothing to do these few days. If you have any difficulties in practicing, just tell me. I will answer them one by one. That swordsmanship, you must reach my requirements before the night of the full moon!"
"Yes!"
From then on, Junior Leopard followed Xue Wuya to practice swordsmanship every day in the valley. As Junior Leopard expected, Xue Wuya mainly explained to him how to exert the greatest power of that swordsmanship. As for the consequences of that swordsmanship, Xue Wuya only mentioned a little. At the same time, he also said that even if he was seriously injured, he would heal him after he subdued the Evil Toad.
Junior Leopard was also careful. Every time he sent living animals to the valley, there would always be one or two of them in a coma. In the first few days, Xue Wuya felt it was strange, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, these animals were just in a coma, not dead, and didn't affect his eating. He just thought that Junior Leopard was afraid of trouble and directly knocked the prey out. That was all.
In the last few days, Junior Leopard had sent to the valley, and more than half of them were unconscious beasts. In this way, when he sent the unconscious beasts to Xue Wuya with the Anesthetic Pill, Xue Wuya wouldn't have any doubts.
Days passed like this. In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed and the night of the full moon had arrived!
… … …
The story of Misty Mountain was finally coming to an end. This Misty Mountain was full of toiletries and cups. Hehe, in general, it was necessary to build a foundation for the protagonist. Although he got a lot of things, none of them could be used easily. The protagonist still needed time to adapt, to hone, and to collect and recommend!
