Chapter 183 Division of Labor and Cooperation
Tao Zi was petting the little fox in her arms, thinking about something, until it slapped her with its paw, interrupting her thoughts: "Stop petting my head. You've made a lot of my hair fall out lately."
She removed her hand and put it down.
The little fox jumped to Li Xiu, and she listed the possibilities in her mind and analyzed them slowly.
As he listened, the little fox suddenly said, "Actually, there's a medicinal herb that's very effective in treating spiritual veins."
Li Xiu looked over and asked, "What medicinal herbs?"
"Return the spiritual plant."
Hearing the name, he smiled helplessly and said, "Who doesn't know this? But we can't get it."
The little fox looked at him puzzledly: "Why can't I get it?"
"According to rumors, the Soul-Restoring Plant can heal completely damaged spiritual veins, which is tantamount to giving cultivators two lives. Regardless of whether Xuanling Valley has it, even if it does, it is the object of competition among the three sects and four schools, and it is not something that casual cultivators like us can covet."
The fox cousin snorted and said, "Don't worry about it, just grab it. Anyway, whether you can grab it or not, you have to escape."
The Flower Monk hesitated for a moment, then said, "If I meet someone from the same sect, I can stop them."
Li Xiu's mouth twitched, and he joked, "If your master knew you had such thoughts, he would probably be mad to death."
He shook his head and said seriously, "Fellow Daoist Li, you are my current companions, so naturally I put you first. I think Master will understand."
Tao Zi then asked, "Little Fox, are you familiar with the Huanling Plant?"
“I haven’t seen it, but I’ve heard a lot about it from the elders in the tribe.”
She continued, "Did your elders tell me what the characteristics are when the Huanling plant matures?"
Li Xiu took a breath and said, "No way? Sister Tao, are you serious? You can't just snatch this thing away."
She smiled and replied, "We have to give it a try."
He looked at his spirit ship and said helplessly: "My ship doesn't fly fast enough, it might be caught up."
The Flower Monk immediately said, "Are there any of you who are good at drawing talismans? I know a talisman technique that can speed up the process, but I can't complete it alone."
Xi Jing immediately responded: "I'm OK, but it will take some time to learn."
"No problem, we have plenty of time now."
Han Yueshan said from the side: "Junior brother, take advantage of this time to learn as much as you can."
Zhao Xue nodded seriously. Li Xiu said hurriedly, "Didn't you get a lot of good stuff from the Xuyan Ruins? Check to see if there are any escape techniques. Learn them as soon as possible. I'm going to develop some drugs to ambush people now."
Hearing the latter part, Tao Zi looked at him. He said dimly, "Is it not possible? If we do it openly, it will definitely not work. We can only do it covertly."
"It's not that I can't. I just want to ask." Tao Zi looked at him seriously and said, "Do you have any medicine that is useful for cultivators above the Jindan level?"
Li Xiu shook her head decisively: "No, with my level of skill, the drugs I made will be useless if they react quickly."
Tao Zi coughed lightly and said tactfully, "What about the ones for physiological needs? I heard that there are many such drugs that can affect those above the Jindan level, and the requirements for the makers are not high."
After Li Xiu reacted, she was stunned: "Tao Mei, you are not?"
She spread her hands and said helplessly: "Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. There's nothing I can do."
He took two steps back in silence and said, "That... is indeed possible, but the impact won't be significant. After all, those people are not that easy to control."
Tao Zi nodded and said, "I understand, but if they can just lose focus for a moment, they might be able to save our lives."
Li Xiu friendly reminded: "It is also possible to die in a more miserable way."
She soothed him, "Don't worry, I will only use that thing when it is most dangerous. I won't abuse it."
He nodded silently and said, "Then I'll go make medicine."
The fox cousin and the little fox on the side were stunned. Jiao'er asked in a low voice: "Is it what I think it is?"
The little fox nodded silently. Jiao'er sighed, "You humans really are capable of any tricks."
Tao Zi shrugged helplessly and said, "There's nothing we can do. The medicine we can make here is too low-level. It can't have a big impact on those cultivators. We can only take a different approach."
Li Xiu's voice came: "After I become a Dan cultivator, the situation will be much better."
She smiled, responded, and said nothing more.
Although medical practitioners often joke that medicine and alchemy are inseparable, not every medical practitioner has the talent to become an alchemist, and even if they can succeed, it will not be achieved overnight.
Seeing that everyone was busy, Tao Zi also started practicing techniques.
The little fox and his fox cousin were discussing the division of labor: "Jiao'er, if we split up, you'll follow Tao Zi and I'll follow Zhao Xue. That way, we can keep in touch."
"What if it's too far away?"
The little fox thought for a moment and said, "That's just right for judging distance."
"Okay, that's settled then."
After the two foxes finished their distribution, they went to their own nests. It was unclear whether they were resting or practicing.
After Xi Jing and Hua Seng had finished tinkering with it, they arrived at a small town near Xuanling Valley.
The town is almost full of cultivators, and it is very lively. Needless to say, these people are all coming for Xuanling Valley.
Many cultivators set up stalls on the street and bartered goods.
Xi Jing and the others looked at it with itch, Tao Zi said: "First find the inn, and we can talk about other things later."
They nodded repeatedly.
However, there were too many people and all the inns were full. Han Yueshan sighed and asked very naturally, "Sister, should we sleep under the bridge?"
Li Xiu stared at him and said helplessly: "What kind of life did you live in the past?"
Xi Jing asked depressedly: "The inn is full, where else can we sleep?"
Li Xiu took them to those houses and asked them one by one. Finally, one family was willing to keep them.
The old man took the silver and said with a smile, "Our house is remote and shabby, but I never thought it would be favored by a few immortals. It is truly a great honor for our humble home."
Han Yueshan said from the bottom of his heart: "No, no, it's good enough to have a place to stay."
Li Xiu and the others simply allocated the rooms and then left.
Before leaving, the old man asked, "Do the immortals need dinner?"
Li Xiu refused: "No need."
When they got to the street, Xi Jing's eyes lit up and she said, "I'm going to check out those stalls. Maybe I can find something good."
Han Yueshan was also eager to try, but Hua Seng poured cold water on him: "It's unlikely."
"Maybe, senior sister, let's go." Xi Jing pulled her senior sister and ran over.
