Knock knock knock~
There was a knock on the door.
Su Rui retracted Ma Huai's transformation, tidied up his messy hair, and then leisurely opened the door.
Standing outside the door were the judge and the child transformed from the little divine deer.
"I asked my colleagues in the palace last night and learned about several places where mugwort may appear. If Shanjun is ready, let's set off now!" The judge whispered.
"Wait a moment, Judge. I'll go get my sister!"
Afterwards, Su Rui called Chi Jiao and the judge and walked out of the restaurant together. Under the judge's guidance, they walked into a herbal medicine shop that looked very old and full of history in a remote alley on the edge of a busy city.
"What do you want?" An elderly woman leaning on a cane appeared beside Su Rui and the others like a ghost. Even the judge, who was a Yin God, was startled.
"I want a large amount of mugwort." Su Rui was sure that the other party was not a ghost, but he still asked with caution.
"Oh, is it used to make pills? But there is not much mugwort used in making pills. You can't put too much at once, otherwise the pill will be ruined easily!" The old woman slowly walked to a corner, pulled up a bamboo basket, and said slowly.
"I have a secret recipe for brewing wine, which requires a large amount of mugwort." Su Rui said vaguely.
"I am also an alcoholic. I wonder what your secret recipe is? Are you willing to trade it with me?" The old woman's eyes lit up, and she suddenly appeared in front of Su Rui with a teleportation look, and asked eagerly,
"It's a lower-level secret recipe for the Green Blood Wine. If senior is willing to give me other secret recipes for winemaking, I'm willing to exchange them!" Su Rui said.
In the end, Surina exchanged the secret recipe of the Green Blood Wine with the old woman in the herbal medicine shop for a recipe for the Gu Yan Dan, plus a basket of mugwort.
Once all the materials are prepared, all that’s left is to go out into the wild and find some wild beasts, collect some of their blood, and then you can start brewing the green blood wine.
After finding out where big beasts often appeared outside Rongcheng, Su Rui said goodbye to Rongcheng accompanied by the judge. Then he appeared on a ridge thirty kilometers away from Rongcheng.
It is not easy to find a tiger in the vast mountains.
However, Su Rui thought of a more convenient method. He found a small hill with relatively high terrain and let out a long howl. He deliberately did not use his true energy in this howl, so although his voice was loud, it was not very deep and resonant.
But this unimpressive shout brought about a deafening roar.
Su Rui smiled in his heart. Showing weakness to the enemy really could lure the enemy over. Even if the enemy was a tiger, the method still worked.
Soon, Su Rui saw movement in the dense grass and forests at the foot of the hill.
The red dragon was about to complain that his roar lacked momentum and wouldn't attract any ferocious beasts, but when he saw the tiger appear, he immediately expressed his admiration.
Su Rui didn't want to waste time on these big insects, so he sent Lei Lin out directly.
The tigers failed in their mission. Before they could show up, a bolt of lightning pierced their brains and they died tragically on the spot.
Su Rui used his sword to drag several dead tigers at the foot of the mountain to an open area on the top of a small hill. He took out the wine jar he bought from Rongcheng and the skinning knife he brought with him. He skillfully poked a hole in the tiger's heart and collected all the tiger's blood in the wine jar. Only then did he peel off the tiger's fur.
These tigers are of good appearance, with bright fur color and clear markings. The complete tiger skins are like exquisite works of art.
Su Rui collected the tiger skins and began to prepare the carcasses. He cut the flesh into small pieces with a knife and roasted them over a fire. The aroma of the roasted meat filled the air, making everyone salivate. Su Rui and Chi Jiao devoured the tigers, devouring them completely.
Afterwards, he knocked off the remaining tiger bones one by one and stuffed them into the wine jar filled with liquor and tiger blood. He also tied the mugwort into balls and stuffed them into the wine jar. He processed the other ingredients in the same way as the mugwort. After working for a quarter of an hour, Su Rui finally prepared the ingredients.
"Sister Chi Jiao, it's up to you from now on!"
Chi Jiao smiled, her fairy-like hands blasting out several balls of flame, tightly enveloping the wine jar on the ground like a blooming flaming flower. Following Su Rui's instructions, she began the final step of tempering the Jade Blood Wine—quenching it!
A quarter of an hour later, as the flames released by the red dragon were completely absorbed by the wine in the jars, Su Rui finally felt relieved and sealed the jars one by one, placing the wine into the small cloth bag. He carefully poured out some of his long-treasured Tiger Evil and placed it around the jars, completely sealing out the fire energy contained in the wine.
All that was left was about half a month of storage and preparation time! This was a critical moment; success or failure would only be determined after half a month!
After doing all this, Su Rui transformed into the appearance of Ma Huai.
The red dragon shrank its body, restrained its breath, and turned into a black and red bracelet, which was wrapped around Su Rui's wrist.
After Ma Huai died, his signature flying sword was turned into scrap metal by Lei Lin, and his long sword for self-defense was shattered by Su Rui's sword energy, so he no longer had any flying swords or magic weapons to use.
Fortunately, this guy's lightness skills are pretty good, and this place is not far from the devil's cave where Taoist Yuan Huai is hiding.
So Su Rui used his lightness skills to travel all the way, and finally arrived at his destination at dusk.
This is a large manor built against the mountainside. Although it lacks red walls and green tiles, it does have pavilions and towers, and its construction complements the surrounding environment, like a masterpiece of nature, like a beautiful painting. The buildings within the manor are staggered and well-planned, complementing the surrounding mountains and rivers.
