At three quarters past Xu, a crescent moon appeared in the sky.
After returning to the county government office from Captain Wu's yard, Su Rui stayed in his room and took out the snake venom sac he had collected in the morning. He carefully drew out a drop of venom with a homemade long stick.
The snake venom is milky white, but judging from its appearance, it is difficult to tell whether it is poison or milk unless you tell it.
Su Rui put his nose close to it and sniffed it, only to smell a sweet and fishy smell. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt a little dizzy.
"Is he poisoned?" Su Rui was startled and hurriedly put the venom far away.
He was originally worried about what animal to catch to test the poison, but now, he felt that it was no longer necessary.
Then he took out a toad that he had caught last night from under the bed and carefully picked out some toad venom with a tile.
The toad venom was also milky white and smelled slightly fishy, but this time Su Rui didn't feel dizzy. It was highly poisonous, but it was also a medicinal herb, and quite expensive. He remembered that on Earth before his time travel, there were people who specialized in breeding it.
Su Rui took out another porcelain utensil and scraped the toad venom off the tiles and put it into a small porcelain bottle.
I squeezed out all the pus on the toad's back before throwing it out of the window and letting it continue to develop.
Then he took out a small bamboo tube and made a small blowpipe according to the steps he remembered. He also cut a toothpick and rolled a tail fin with paper.
Just like that, a simple and reliable fool-proof hidden weapon - blow dart was made!
Su Rui drew a small dartboard on the wooden board, picked up the blowpipe from a distance of ten feet and blew hard. With a whoosh, he hit the second ring.
Su Rui pulled the toothpick from the dartboard with satisfaction. Hitting the second ring was better than expected.
Then he made an embroidery needle blowpipe, also with a rolled tail, and also at a distance of ten feet, he hit the target and penetrated three inches into the wood.
The attack power of using an embroidery needle as a blowgun is more than twice that of using a toothpick!
Su Rui decided to use embroidery needles to make blowgun darts as a temporary means of ambush. Of course, when encountering a real enemy, he would add some ingredients, such as snake venom, toad venom, etc.
Today's Youshi class, Captain Wu taught him some dietary taboos for strengthening the body and some basic knowledge about hidden weapons, but he didn't actually teach him how to use them. So, in the short term, he could only rely on the "gadgets" he made to protect himself.
He had originally wanted to make a slingshot as a means of long-range attack, but there was no rubber band in this world, so he could only use beef tendon instead. He would send his servants to the market tomorrow to buy it before making it.
After packing up the blowgun and the porcelain bottle of venom, it was almost midnight. Su Rui looked up at the night sky. The Pleiades constellation was clearly visible, so he began to draw on the power of the stars.
Three quarters of an hour later, the star power in his eye had reached saturation, and he immediately began to refine it.
Probably because he had already mastered the art of "The Golden Light Pupil of the Rabbit Day", the speed of refining the star power tonight was much faster than yesterday. However, some of the star power dissipated during the refining process. As a result, some free space appeared in his eye orifices. So, he started a new round of practice of guiding and refining the star power.
It was not until midnight that he felt his eye orifices were beginning to feel full, and he stopped practicing.
Perhaps because he'd had such a busy day, Su Rui found himself unable to sleep even in bed. He reviewed his gains from the day: first, he'd officially mastered the "Mori Golden Light Pupil" technique; second, he'd gained two new martial arts teachers and learned the "Ape Fencing Technique"; and third, he'd prepared a three-piece self-defense kit: blowgun darts, poison, and a peach wood sword.
After careful calculation, he gained quite a lot. With these, he now has a little support when he goes out.
As he was thinking, he felt a little hungry, and then he remembered that he had not had dinner yet.
Back on Earth, he had developed a habit of eating a midnight snack before going to bed, but that had stopped after he crossed over. Now, feeling hungry and unable to sleep, he simply got up, lit an oil lamp, and headed to the kitchen.
In order to avoid the smoke, the kitchen in the inner courtyard was set up in the backyard of the county government office, on the left side of the back door of the county government office, not too far from the west wing of the inner courtyard where Su Rui lived.
The inner courtyard was very quiet late at night. The Su family and servants had all fallen asleep. Only a lantern was still emitting a faint yellow light.
Su Rui walked along the corridor towards the backyard. In order to avoid waking up others and having to explain himself, he deliberately walked lightly.
However, when he stepped into the backyard and looked towards the kitchen, he suddenly discovered that the light in the kitchen was on!
People in this world don’t like eating midnight snacks!
Is this haunted?
Suddenly remembering the Chen family's corpse-resurrection case, Su Rui was still a little scared in his heart, but at the same time he was a little curious, wanting to know whether it was man-made or haunted.
This is a common trait of human beings, curious and afraid of death!
He thought about it and decided to go back to the house to get the three-piece set of self-defense: blowgun, poison and peach wood sword, and then sneak over to see what was going on.
Half a moment later, when he returned to the inner courtyard, the light in the kitchen was still on.
Su Rui held the peach wood sword, blew out the oil lamp in his hand, and then quietly approached.
Through the kitchen window, Su Rui saw a magical scene.
Hehua is killing a chicken in the kitchen!
To be precise, the one who was killing the chicken in the kitchen was not He Hua, but a furry little fox. This little fox had two tails, its fur was as red as fire, and its eyes were clear and faintly fluorescent.
Su Rui did not actively open his Golden Light Pupils, but the moment he saw the lotus, his pupils were passively opened for a moment. Only then did he see through the lotus' true form!
