Chapter 226: Used as Medicine
Meng Duanyue and Jiang Wanyin looked at each other, walked forward with serious expressions, and carefully examined the dead bodies of the leeches.
"Is this thing useful?"
It can't be eaten, right?
Nan Ran looked at Meng Duanyue and Jiang Wanyin, who collected a large pile of leech corpses and put them into bags, and couldn't help but ask.
Meng Duanyue smiled sincerely, "Of course it's useful! According to the ancestors and elders of the Medicine Sect, who have explored the incomplete Shennong Classic, it has been confirmed that in the Shennong Classic, leeches are a lower-class medicine. They can expel bad blood, blood stasis, break up blood accumulation, dredge blocked blood vessels, and treat symptoms such as weeping pulses."
"The medicinal properties of mountain leeches are slightly stronger than those of water leeches, and their effects are also better, especially for blocked tendons and veins..."
She smiled and said, "Of course, the medicinal properties of this leech are stronger. While it's more effective, its drawbacks are also very obvious."
"The biggest drawback is that after using leeches as medicine to clear the meridians, there is no possibility of further improvement in future cultivation."
Nan Ran nodded, not quite understanding.
"When we encounter leech monsters that usually move in groups, we can only run away. Even if we are lucky enough to kill a few, we don't even bother to pick up the corpses."
"And most of the leech-like monsters that act alone are of low level. Even if they are killed, the medicinal effect will be minimal."
Meng Duanyue shook the bag in her hand. "It's rare to find so many intact, high-level leech-like monster corpses."
Even dried up...
Even the effort of preparation is saved a lot.
-
Meng Duanyue's team rested for a day to recover their strength.
When it got dark, the dense leaves in the forest blocked out the stars and the bright moon, and we couldn't see them.
But when it was completely dark, everyone couldn't help but look up...
"ah!!!"
Suddenly, Feng Yang let out a loud scream, which frightened everyone.
"What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
"Who are you trying to scare to death?"
Feng Yang's lips were trembling and he couldn't speak at all.
He stretched out his hand and pointed tremblingly above his head.
Meng Duanyue and the others also looked up and saw – “Ah!!!!”
The same scream rang out again.
This scared Nan Ran who was standing next to him.
"What, what's going on?"
She looked at Meng Duanyue and the others, then raised her head and looked at the - uh, giant python?
It doesn't look like it.
It looks like it's going to grow two horns...
"you/"
Before Nan Ran could finish her words, the giant python in front of them snorted at them, almost blowing everyone away.
Even so, everyone still couldn't avoid falling down.
"ah……"
After the screams, everyone lost their balance and fell to the ground.
Only Nan Ran stood there, motionless.
[You are indeed extraordinary!]
The deep-water dragon's vertical pupils, as big as buckets, stared straight at Nan Ran, with greed hidden in its eyes.
[Follow...] me!
Be my furnace.
Before Deep Water Dragon could finish his arrogant words, he was interrupted by Nan Ran's nonchalant tone: "Well, I feel really uncomfortable watching you like this. My neck is a little tired."
"Keep your head down!"
"Get smaller!"
"Oh, yes, just like that... smaller and smaller and smaller!"
Nan Ran was commanding the deep-water dragon to shrink as if he was directing a car to reverse.
The deep-water dragon became furious upon hearing the sound.
How dare you, you bold human, give me orders?
How ridiculous!!
However, it soon discovered something was wrong——
