Chapter 25: Elixir in the Misty Swamp

Everyone felt their minds were buzzing and going blank. Google search reading

It’s not that they haven’t seen the world before, but the scene in front of them is so shocking!

After more than ten breaths, everyone finally woke up. Zhou Hong, the leader, took a deep breath, then turned his head sharply and said loudly to the people behind him,

"Senior Demon Python asked us to collect medicinal materials, why don't you go quickly!"

"Oh yes yes yes!"

"We're going right now, we're going right now!"

The surrounding warriors quickly agreed, and then dispersed in a rush.

"Don't forget to check out other families in the town! Today, we have to dig up three feet of the ground in Huangye Town to find all the medicinal materials and give them to Senior Demon Python!" Zhou Hong reminded as he looked at the backs of his men.

After finishing speaking, Zhou Hong turned his head and looked at Luo Zhen with a flattering expression, and said flatteringly, "Senior Demon Python, please wait a moment, they have all gone to find medicinal materials for you."

Luo Zhen nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Seeing Luo Zhen nodding his head in an anthropomorphic manner, Zhou Hong became even more frightened.

The black monster python in front of me is really incredible. Although the monster power he exudes is not too strong, it can understand human speech, make human actions such as smiling and nodding, and he can even write. !

No matter who encounters such a weird monster, they must be frightened and treat it with caution!

As Zhou Hong waited in every possible way, time passed little by little.

About half an hour later, the warriors from the Zhou family came back again.

"Second Young Master, we have collected all the medicinal materials from the entire town!"

These warriors placed large and small packages in front of Luo Zhen. Luo Zhen flicked his snake tail, causing a gust of wind to blow open the package, revealing the contents inside.

Not surprisingly, there are all kinds of medicinal materials inside.

However, the quality of these medicinal materials was uneven. Luo Zhen looked around carefully and found that most of the medicinal materials were under fifty years old, and only a few medicinal plants were more than a hundred years old.

With Luo Zhen's current state, even century-old medicinal herbs have no effect on him, let alone those herbs with lower medicinal properties, which are like garbage.

Looking at these medicinal materials lazily, Luo Zhen leaned over, opened the snake's mouth and sucked hard, swallowing the several century-old medicinal herbs into his belly.

"You swallowed a century-old medicinal wild ginseng and gained 28 experience points!"

"You swallowed a century-old medicinal plant, Red Mountain Fruit, and gained 30 experience points!"

"You swallowed a century-old medicinal wild ginseng and gained 26 experience points!"

"You ate it"

Several pieces of information appeared in front of Luo Zhen one after another. Luo Zhen didn't bother to read them, but narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Zhou Hong.

Zhou Hong suddenly felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and his hair stood on end. He said tremblingly, "Senior Demon Python, what else do you want?"

Luo Zhen flicked his snake tail, rolled up a wooden stick, and wrote a line of words on the ground,

"These medicinal materials are too weak for me to like them."

Looking at the handwriting written by Luo Zhen on the ground, Zhou Hong was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead and said quickly, "Look at my memory! Just wait, I will bring the good medicinal materials that I have saved right away!"

After finishing speaking, Zhou Hong hurriedly left in a certain direction.

That direction was exactly where Luo Zhen secretly ate three hundred years of medicinal materials not long ago.

After a while, Zhou Hong came back dejectedly.

The distance was closer, and under the light of the fire, one could see that there was a hint of anger in Zhou Hong's frustrated expression.

"Senior Demon Python, to be honest, I spent a lot of effort and money to buy several high-quality medicinal herbs from outside. Each of those medicinal herbs is over three hundred years old! As for the result, I just went to see it. , all those medicinal materials disappeared, and even the house where the medicinal materials were stored collapsed."

Zhou Hong's voice became weaker and weaker because he thought of some possibility and looked at Luo Zhen with his mouth slightly open.

Luo Zhen rolled up a wooden stick and wrote on the ground,

"I have already taken those medicinal herbs you mentioned."

"No wonder, I said, how could a good house collapse?" Zhou Hong's expression remained unchanged and he continued, "Senior Demon Python, all the medicinal resources in Huangye Town are here, and these on the ground cannot enter your Eyes, see if you can let us go."

By now, Zhou Hong finally understood that the black demon python in front of him, which had intelligence comparable to that of humans, did not really like killing people, but wanted to collect medicinal resources in the town.

The older the medicinal materials are, the more energy they contain. They are extremely useful to both human warriors and monsters.

After Zhou Hong finished speaking, he looked at Luo Zhen pitifully.

Luo Zhen made no move, but looked at him coldly.

After a few breaths, Zhou Hong felt his whole body tingle under Luo Zhen's cold eyes. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a begging tone, "Senior Demon Python, our Huangye Town is a remote town with few resources. , everything I said is true.”

"Please let us go to Huangye Town!"

As he spoke, Zhou Hong knelt down.

Seeing Zhou Hong like this, other people around him were stunned for a moment, and then they all knelt down in twos and threes.

Although it felt weird to kneel down and beg for mercy from a monster, everyone felt much better when they thought that this monster python had intelligence comparable to that of a human being and could even write.

Maybe, the demon python in front of me is a demon general level existence!

Looking coldly at the crowd kneeling on the ground, Luo Zhen spit out the snake letter.

In fact, even if these human warriors did not kneel down and beg for mercy, Luo Zhen did not intend to kill them.

First, Luo Zhen had no grudges with these human warriors, so he had no intention of killing them, although with his strength, he could destroy the entire town in a few minutes.

Second, what these people said was true. Huangye Town was indeed a place with scarce resources and there was not much to gain.

Luo Zhen narrowed his snake eyes and scanned the surroundings. At this moment, Zhou Hong, who was kneeling in front of everyone, suddenly screamed "Ah".

Hmm? What's going on?

Luo Zhen turned his head and looked at Zhou Hong coldly.

"Senior Demon Python! I have thought of a place where you can definitely find the medicinal herbs you want!" Zhou Hong got up from the ground and said excitedly, "There is a swamp fifty miles away from our Huangye Town, called the Misty Swamp!"

"There is a spiritual medicine in that swamp!"

Zhou Hong said loudly, "Although there are many demon beasts in it, the strongest one is only a level 10 demon python. With your strength, you can completely kill it and take the spiritual medicine away!"

"By the way, if you are interested in the spiritual medicine, I suggest you set off immediately, because the spiritual medicine will soon mature, probably in the next few days. If you go too late, I am afraid it will be swallowed by the level 10 little demon python."

Zhou Hong finished speaking in one breath, and then looked at Luo Zhen with hope.

Luo Zhen's heart was already filled with surprise.

There is actually a spiritual medicine in the misty swamp?

Now Luo Zhen is not a novice. He knows clearly that anything that can be called a spiritual medicine is at least 500 years old.

More importantly, once the medicinal material breaks through the 500-year limit and becomes a spiritual medicine, the internal part of the medicinal material will undergo essential changes!

A 499-year-old herb and a 500-year-old spiritual medicine, although there is only a one-year difference, the medicinal properties contained in them are very different!

Yes,

It's just because of the one-year age of the medicine!

In terms of the richness and quality of the medicinal properties, a 500-year-old spiritual medicine is equivalent to ten 499-year-old herbs!

This is the difference between spiritual medicine and ordinary medicinal herbs!

So after hearing Zhou Hong say that there is a spiritual medicine in the misty swamp, Luo Zhen was so surprised.

"Is what you said true?" Luo Zhen wrote a line on the ground.

"It's true!" Zhou Hong nodded quickly, "To be honest, our Huangye Town organized a warrior team to go to the misty swamp a few days ago, with the purpose of finding out the details of the tenth-level demon python."

"I didn't expect to be discovered by the demon python. We fought a big battle with it, and most of our companions died in the battle. Although I escaped by chance, I was also seriously injured and my strength dropped sharply."

"Then why do you have to kill it?" Luo Zhen continued to write and asked.

"It's mainly for safety," Zhou Hong said frankly, "Our Huangye Town is too close to the Misty Swamp, and the only way for our Huangye Town to communicate with the outside world is on the outskirts of the Misty Swamp."

"In other words, if the monsters in the Misty Swamp want to attack us, whether they attack our town directly or block the road, we will suffer huge losses."

"If the demon python is only level 10, it's fine. Although we are not its opponent, we can protect ourselves with some tools, weapons and terrain traps. But the problem is that there is a spiritual medicine in the swamp. Once the level 10 demon python swallows the spiritual medicine, its strength will skyrocket."

"At that time, it will be the knife and I will be the fish, so we will take precautions and strike first."

"Of course, if we can kill the level 10 demon python, its body and the spiritual medicine it guards will become our trophies."

After hearing what Zhou Hong said, Luo Zhen nodded slightly.

From the perspective of human warriors like Zhou Hong, what they did is not unreasonable.

At this time, Zhou Hong suddenly said cautiously, "Senior Demon Python, are you going to the Misty Swamp? There is a spiritual medicine in it!"

"Although the spiritual medicine is only five hundred years old, it is at least a genuine spiritual medicine. I think it will be useful to you!"

Luo Zhen looked at Zhou Hong with a smile.

He saw through Zhou Hong's idea at a glance. It was nothing more than instigating him to go to the Misty Swamp and then help them get rid of the yellow-striped giant python in it. It would be best if both sides were injured.

At that time, the human warriors in Huangye Town would be able to reap the benefits.

After taking a deep look at Zhou Hong and others, Luo Zhen swung his snake tail and left the town.

Within a few breaths, Luo Zhen went into the darkness and disappeared.

"Second, Second Young Master, the demon python is gone? It left without doing anything?!" Someone next to him asked in surprise.

"Gone!" Zhou Hong looked at the thick night and nodded heavily.

"Huh!"

Everyone around him breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhou Hong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

There was no way, Luo Zhen had put too much pressure on them!

After resting for a while, everyone calmed down, and one of them asked, "Second Master, do you think this demon python will go to the misty swamp? Will it attack the monsters in it?"

"It should be," Zhou Hong thought for a while and said, "Although this black demon python has intelligence and can write, to be honest, the demon power it exudes is not too strong. Although it is still not something we can resist, it is at least not as strong as we imagined."

"What does this mean?" Someone said in astonishment.

"This means that the level of this demon python is not too high! It also means that the spiritual medicine in the misty swamp is attractive to him, so let's wait and see!"

"But, Second Young Master, if this black demon python occupies the misty swamp, wouldn't we be in greater danger? After all, this guy is not only powerful, but also intelligent!"

"You don't understand," Zhou Hong turned his head and smiled at the man, "The biggest threat to us is those powerful but brainless demon beasts, because they can only kill by instinct. If we replace it with an intelligent one, it means that we can communicate and get closer."

"If we treat the other party well, we can even let him protect us!"
