Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 63: The ape catches the snake, the origin of the medicine valley

When leaving Hongyafang City, Zhou Chun still had a bad thought.

He deliberately and arrogantly led Liu Shiyun out of Fangshi and walked toward the mountains in a rampant manner.

If there is that blind bandit cultivator who dares to attack them, they can use the help of [Aoki Spirit Ape] to counterattack.

But what made him a little disappointed was that they didn't encounter any attacks until they stepped out of the Red Rock Mountains.

Liu Shiyun, who seemed to notice his disappointment and knew his previous thoughts, suddenly spoke softly:

"Dad has said before that if the gangster cultivators who hang out in the Red Rock Mountains want to live a long life, their cultivation strength is not the most important, the most important thing is their vision."

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are young, your cultivation is already in the late stage of Qi refining, and you are bringing a fifth-level Qi refining female cultivator like my daughter. This combination must have something to rely on if you dare to walk arrogantly in the Red Rock Mountains."

"So those bandit cultivators will definitely not show up easily before they are sure of the situation."

Zhou Chun had never thought about this.

When he heard her talking about this matter, Zhou Chun became somewhat interested, and immediately asked: "Fellow Daoist Liu, please tell Zhou, how do you, the casual cultivators, generally protect yourself wisely when you are walking in the world of immortality?"

"Is Fellow Daoist Zhou also interested in this?"

Liu Shiyun looked at him in surprise, as if she didn't expect that a monk from a big family would be interested in these things.

"These are all things that are used to protect one's life when traveling in the world of immortality. Zhou naturally hopes to know more about them so as not to fall prey to them in the future out of nowhere!"

Zhou Chun didn't have anything to be embarrassed about, and openly stated the reason for his interest.

When Liu Shiyun heard what he said, a strange color flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she nodded lightly and said: "Since Fellow Daoist Zhou is interested in this, I naturally know everything about it."

"Dad often says that when we walk in the world of immortality, we, the casual cultivators, need to keep in mind the three things we don't do and the three things we don't care about."

"Three don't mess with the inside. First, don't mess with the sect disciples wearing sect uniforms. Second, don't mess with those who are very different in age and cultivation. Third, don't mess with the white-haired man."

"No one of the disciples of the sect knows what their strength and background are, and if they are provoked, they may bring endless trouble to themselves; people with big differences in age and cultivation level either have a big background, or they are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers; the white-haired man can

To live to an old age is enough to prove that his abilities are beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"As for the three no-minds, one is to ignore other people's quarrels, the second is to ignore other people's fights, and the third is to ignore other people's opinions."

"In addition, if we and other casual cultivators go in and out of the market, look for companions, or even sell things, there are things we need to pay attention to."

Liu Shiyun did not hide anything from Zhou Chun. She told Zhou Chun everything she knew about the life experience of a casual cultivator.

Zhou Chun also benefited a lot from this and learned a lot.

In this way, after the two of them left the Hongyan Mountains, they climbed over mountains and ridges along the way. In the process, they meditated at the gate of a certain cultivator family to recover some of their mana and spirit. Only then did they arrive at the medicine valley Liu Shiyun had discovered three days later.

This medicine valley is indeed very hidden.

It is not large in area, just a crack in the mountain that is less than twenty feet long and less than three feet wide. It is even impossible to enter and exit from below, and can only go up and down through the gap above.

However, the gap above was covered with vines, and the green branches and leaves perfectly covered most of the gap, and there were a large number of thorny shrubs growing on both sides.

This special terrain environment makes it difficult to detect its existence whether from the sky or on the ground.

Liu Shiyun was able to discover this medicine valley because she accidentally saw two emerald-crested flying snakes that were out hunting falling from the sky into the valley.

At this time, when they arrived outside the Medicine Valley, Zhou Chun used his flying magic weapon to fly above and take a look, then returned to the ground and released the [Aoki Spirit Ape].

Then he took out several large snake bags from the storage bag and handed them to the green-haired giant ape.

These snake bags are all tools used by the Zhou family to capture small and medium-sized demonic snakes in the past. They are all woven from flexible demonic silk, which is not immersed in water or fire, and is difficult to be harmed by snake venom.

Moreover, Zhou Chun had already sprinkled a large amount of medicinal powder inside that could make the demonic snakes sleep and coma. As long as he caught those emerald-crowned flying snakes and put them in, they would not have the strength to move within a few days of keeping them.

"Old Yuan, I'll leave it to you to take care of those emerald-crested flying snakes inside. If you can avoid hurting them, it's best not to hurt them!"

Oh~oh!

Facing Zhou Chun's instructions, the green-haired giant ape just patted his chest to express his understanding.

Then it grabbed the bag and strode towards the medicine valley.

Because they were afraid of being accidentally attacked by the Cui-Crown Flying Snake, Zhou Chun and Liu Shiyun stayed away and watched.

I saw that the green-haired giant ape had somehow angered the emerald-crested flying snake inside, and soon twenty or thirty emerald-green flying snakes flew out of the medicine valley, spraying venom from their mouths to attack it.

These emerald green flying snakes are not big in size, the two largest ones are less than one foot long, and the smaller ones are only four or five feet long.

Like Bamboo Leaf Green, their whole body is emerald green, with a sarcoma shaped like a cock's comb on the top of their head, and two pairs of membrane wings like dragonfly wings on both sides.

The main attack method of this kind of demonic snake is poison. It can turn its deadly snake venom into poisonous arrows and poison water to attack the enemy. It can also use its extremely fast flying speed to bite its prey.

Once bitten by one of them, unless they happen to have an extremely effective antidote to snake venom, a monk in the late stage of Qi refining will not survive for more than half a day.

But as a second-level mid-level monster, the green-haired giant ape would not be hurt by these little snakes.

With a roar from its mouth, it released a layer of green light, easily blocking those poisonous arrows and poisonous water.

At the same time, it waved its big palm, and the green light intertwined into a large net, and netted several emerald-crested flying snakes on the spot. Then it retracted the net, shot out a few rays of mana and fell on the heads of those emerald-crested flying snakes, and then

He fainted from the shock.

Following the same pattern, not long after, a group of emerald-crested flying snakes were captured by the giant green-haired ape, knocked unconscious and put into bags.

Seeing such a scene, Zhou Chun and Liu Shiyun looked at each other, both of them were shocked by the strength of the green-haired giant ape.

Whoa whoa!

Arriving next to Zhou Chun, the green-haired giant ape handed the bag in his hand, indicating that Zhou Chun could check it.

But Zhou Chun had some scruples, and he also trusted the other party very much. He smiled and said, "You don't have to be like this, Mr. Yuan. You should take care of these bags."

After speaking, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a jade box containing several kinds of spiritual fruits, and handed it to the green-haired giant ape.

"Sir, you can enjoy these spiritual fruits slowly while I go to the valley to pick the elixirs."

Oh oh oh——

The green-haired giant ape shouted happily, took the jade box over with great satisfaction, and then sat on the ground and slowly enjoyed it.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately nodded to Liu Shiyun, and the two of them walked towards the medicine valley together.

Otherwise, the spiritual beasts tamed by immortal cultivators are sensible!

Although the green-haired giant ape had a battle with those emerald-crested flying snakes outside the medicine, he also entered the medicine valley to clean up the area to prevent the emerald-crested flying snakes from lurking inside.

But it didn't harm a single elixir inside during the whole process, which was very measured.

Arriving in the valley at this time, Zhou Chun took a quick look and saw various elixirs growing on the stone walls and on the ground in the valley, some of which were as old as a hundred years.

Golden bamboo orchid, Polygonatum japonica, wild ginseng, Poria cocos, congealed vanilla, red oil flower...

There are more than a dozen types of elixirs that Zhou Chun can recognize at a glance, and there are also many elixirs that he cannot identify at the moment.

He looked at these densely growing elixirs and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "It's strange, there are too many types of elixirs here. It is usually difficult to breed so many different types of elixirs somewhere in the wild!"

"

"From what Fellow Daoist Zhou said, this matter is indeed a bit strange."

Liu Shiyun couldn't help but nodded, also showing doubts.

But no matter how they looked around, they couldn't see any traces of human activity here, not to mention that the group of emerald-crested flying snakes still lived here.

In the end Zhou Chun could only wave his hand and said: "Forget it, let's collect the medicine first!"

Then he took out a large number of empty jade boxes from the storage bag, and together with Liu Shiyun, he took a medicine hoe and carefully dug out various elixirs.

While digging like this, Zhou Chun suddenly discovered something strange about the stone wall covered with vines while digging for a tiger-claw golden thread plant growing on the stone wall.

He got closer and pushed aside the vines to see that it turned out to be a stone door!

The moment he saw this stone door, Zhou Chun's mind suddenly burst with inspiration, and he instantly understood where the various elixirs in this medicine valley came from.

"I didn't expect that there is a cave for casual cultivators hidden in such a wilderness!"

He looked at the moss-covered stone door in front of him with a surprised look on his face and told the truth.

Indeed, if there is a cave for casual cultivators hidden here, it would not be surprising if so many different types of elixirs grow here.

Because some casual cultivators who open caves in the wild to live in do have the habit of scattering some elixir seeds randomly. Whether they can succeed or not depends entirely on God's will.

Even many family monks and sect monks will sow some elixir seeds in and near their residences, hoping to harvest something in the future.

After all, except for some rare species, most common elixir seeds are not difficult to obtain.

And looking at the elixirs that are now filling the valley, as well as those green-crowned flying snakes from before, we can know that the owner of the cave inside the stone gate must have given up on this place long ago.

When Zhou Chun opened the stone door, what he saw inside confirmed his speculation.

There is nothing in the several stone rooms inside the stone gate except for some decayed and tattered wooden furniture and the moldy books and clothes that were originally stored inside.

It can be seen that the original owner probably went out and never came back.

There is a high probability that the guest died outside!

"Is this considered the predecessors planted medicine and the descendants enjoy the shade?"

Zhou Chun left the stone room and looked at the unfinished elixirs outside. He shook his head and stopped thinking about these.
