Chapter 216 Found something good!
The Nanshan Secret Realm is rich in resources. These resources not only refer to spiritual herbs and stones, but also to spiritual creatures living in it that have special effects.
The double-tailed fish is one of them. This fish has two tails. The black one contains poison glands that can be used to extract poison to make poison pills.
The white one contains spiritual liquid that can detoxify. This spiritual liquid is the most commonly used medicinal ingredient by alchemists to refine detoxifying pills.
Because the double-tailed fish is black and white, it is also known as the "gossip fish".
If these fish are kept outside, each alive can be sold at a high price.
But it is precisely because of the high price of the double-tailed fish that they are very difficult to catch. Once the double-tailed fish senses danger, it will swing its black tail to release poison.
This poison is not ordinary. Even if a monk gets a little bit of it, the whole person will be frozen and unable to move. Once a monk is poisoned, he will fall into the water.
The two-tailed fish inside will swarm in and eat each other clean.
At first, Shanqing and Jinle were very happy when they heard that they were going to catch fish again. The fish they caught before tasted very good, and Biyun gave them a lot of fish meat to eat.
Therefore, they were happy to catch more fish to take back for a snack, which could also replenish their spiritual power.
After learning from Zhu Yu how powerful these fish were, their faces immediately changed.
Among them, Shan Qing, the youngest, hid behind Xie Liuyin immediately and refused to get close to the river where the double-tailed fish appeared.
The performances of the other few people were no less impressive, and each of them looked extremely frustrated.
In desperation, Xie Liuyin had to let them hide aside and he took Tun Yan to catch fish.
The young Swallowing Flame boy looked at these people with disdain, and even as he took action, he did not forget to sneer: "You are really useless. You are afraid of even a fish. When Junior Master and I get spiritual stones from selling fish in the future, we won't share a single one with you!"
Hearing Tun Yan's words, the other few people looked ashamed, but they were really scared in their hearts, so they had to move carefully step by step to the riverside, ready to help them at any time.
However, Xie Liuyin did not give them a chance. She always liked to do things quickly and threw a stream of spiritual power directly into the river. When the double-tailed fish were attacked, they jumped out of the river immediately and swung their tails to teach Xie Liuyin a lesson.
But they didn't know that Xie Liuyin had been waiting for this moment. Tun Yan, who had been waiting on the side with the magic weapon "Luowang", threw the net out at the first moment, and the wide net caught the fish in an instant.
This magic weapon was extraordinary. The moment it came into contact with the double-tailed fish, it wrapped up the fish.
Before the double-tailed fish could release its poison to attack Xie Liuyin, it was already tightly caught in the net and could no longer move.
Xie Liuyin was afraid that the fish would die, after all, living fish were more valuable.
She shook the net and put the fish into the large fish tank she had prepared in advance in her space treasure.
This fish tank was made by Xie Liuyin herself by finding a big stone and hollowing out the inside of the stone. In order to let the double-tailed fish stay in it well, she specially poured some spiritual water into the fish tank.
As expected, as soon as these double-tailed fish entered the fish tank mixed with spiritual water, they immediately forgot their previous confrontation with Xie Liuyin and swam comfortably in the fish tank.
Xie Liuyin saw this scene with his spiritual sense, and his heart was instantly relieved.
It is said that the two-tailed fish have a bad temper and get angry easily. If she suddenly moved to a new place, she was really afraid that these little guys would be angry to death just like the rumors said.
Fortunately, with the help of spiritual water, they were finally calmed down.
Since it was confirmed that this method was feasible, Xie Liuyin did not waste time and pulled Tun Yan together to catch a few more double-tailed fish.
Jinle and the others who were unable to help felt a little embarrassed in the end. Zhu Yu took the initiative to step forward and said that he could help refine the poison pills and antidote pills.
They had prepared some of the latter two kinds of elixirs, but they had no possession of the former at all.
After all, most medical practitioners don't like to refine poison pills, as it seems that doing so goes against their principles as medical practitioners.
"This poison pill can make the enemy's body stiff and unable to move. However, because my cultivation is not high, the effect of the poison pill may not last long. It can only last for a quarter of an hour at most."
"If we encounter someone with higher cultivation, we can probably only last half a quarter of an hour."
When Zhu Yu finished speaking, Zhang Liandu's face turned red, as if he was ashamed of his own uselessness.
Xie Liuyin became happy instead: "That's great, even if the effect of the poison pill can only last for a moment, it is already very useful to us."
If they met some powerful character, this quarter of an hour would be enough for them to escape.
Since Zhu Yu has taken the initiative to offer to help, Xie Liuyin certainly would not refuse, and was even more unwilling to dampen the enthusiasm of his teammates.
She and Tun Yan caught a few more double-tailed fish and handed them over to Zhu Yu to deal with.
The master who taught Zhu Yu before was a very reliable medical practitioner. Zhu Yu studied very hard and she quickly cleaned up several double-tailed fish and took out their venom glands.
Once he has found all the other materials, Zhu Yu will be able to start refining the elixir.
After catching the double-tailed fish, Xie Liuyin and his companions had to return to the camp.
At this time, almost all the teams in the camp had returned, because they had searched the area around the camp over the past two days and found nothing valuable nearby.
So when Biyun saw that everyone was there, she discussed with them whether they should move to another place to settle down tomorrow.
This proposal was agreed by everyone, but where to set up camp again still needed to be discussed further.
Biyun was just about to let everyone take a break and think with her teammates about which direction to go next.
But suddenly they discovered several monks wearing Qingxiao Sect disciple uniforms running towards their camp from afar, with excited expressions on their faces.
Xie Liuyin looked up and realized that it was Xu Wuyin's team.
Just now she discovered that Xu Wuyin's team had not returned yet, but because Biyun was still talking, Xie Liuyin didn't want to interrupt.
Why did their team come back at this time, and Xu Wuyin was not in the team?
Xie Liuyin was still curious when he heard the disciples who had hurried back shouting at them from afar: "Come quickly, we found something good!"
"What good stuff?" The disciple who was somewhat familiar with them asked immediately.
Those people quickly ran to the camp. They didn't even have time to catch their breath before they hurriedly said to Biyun and the others, "Hurry, Senior Brother Xu and I found a group of Jade Flower Birds in the woods to the east. If we don't hurry over, we'll miss them!"
This sentence instantly ignited the entire camp, and Senior Sister Biyun stood up at the first moment.
She asked, "Are you sure, it's really the Jade Flower Bird?"
"It's true. We can see it clearly. It's the Jade Flower Bird, and there are so many of them! Senior Sister, let's go there quickly. If we're late, I'm afraid the Jade Flower Bird will fly away!"
