The sharp blade cut a 'straight' opening along the toad's belly.
This situation made me gulp.
To be honest, this scene is too horrifying, and in my opinion, in ancient times, only people with blood feuds would dig up other people's graves and cut the other person's body into pieces. Although this toad almost killed us, it was already dead, so it wouldn't be a big deal. What's more, it was full of poison!
Shouldn't the top priority be to get out of this hellish place as soon as possible?
But Lao Jiang was really following my thoughts. As if to verify my guess, he peeled off the fat layer of the toad with his hands.
Like an experienced forensic doctor.
All of a sudden, a fishy smell that had accumulated for many years hit my face. It was like the smell of decaying dead rats in the gutter. It made me retching and made Yin Ling'er who had just come over to join in the fun. I almost vomited.
Lao Jiang still looked normal, and Ge Weihan was taking notes on the side, looking like a good student.
At this time, Lao Jiang had opened three layers of skin, and with a 'pop' sound, he tore the last bit of adhesion, and then his gloved hand slowly inserted into the depths of the toad's belly.
The next scene was so strong that I couldn't bear to watch it, for fear that I would vomit the sour water in my stomach accidentally.
When I felt it was almost the same, I asked Lao Jiang: "Master, are you okay?"
"OK OK."
After receiving Lao Jiang's assurance, I turned around and found that Lao Jiang had actually taken out the adherent intestines and organs from the toad's belly one by one.
Yin Ling'er bent over and retched, cursing while vomiting: "It's so disgusting, so disgusting, Uncle Jiang, you are so perverted!"
Seeing Yin Ling'er's embarrassment, I couldn't help but pat her back gently to help her calm down, and comforted her: "Aren't you still shouting for revenge? By the way, I remember that you seem to like eating Lao Yanjing very much. Braised.”
"The sewer inside there is made of this kind of stuff."
Hearing this, Yin Ling'er raised her head in disbelief and stared at me with a pair of round eyes: "Brother Jinglan, if you can't speak, you can shut up."
"Uuuuuuu, I will never eat braised pork again."
Then there was a gurgling sound of vomiting.
I wanted to say something else, but Ge Weihan on the side was so excited that he interrupted: "Li Jinglan, please stop talking, lest the girl will settle the score with you later."
I knew the time and had to shut my mouth, but turned around and asked Lao Jiang what on earth he wanted to do?
Because I know that Lao Jiang is a very purposeful person. Logically speaking, the most important thing he should do now is to take us away from Mihuntang instead of practicing sword skills on a toad.
Lao Jiang curled his lips lightly: "You will know later..."
I saw his bloody hand searching for something in the toad's body, digging around as if looking for something.
After about a quarter of an hour, he pulled out a small black ball from inside.
The small black ball was about the size of a fist, and was completely black and shiny, like a priceless black pearl. Under the moonlight, it exuded a lustrous luster.
This thing looks like a treasure at first glance!
I became interested and stared at Old Jiang without blinking. What I didn't expect was that the next moment, Old Jiang pulled out his black knife and split the small black ball open like lightning, and a translucent, invisible ball rolled out of it. Colorless and strange beads.
My eyes widened and I asked in surprise: "This toad also has relics?"
Lao Jiang said: "What do you know? This is its inner elixir."
Neidan?
Before I could digest the word, Lao Jiang took the initiative to explain: "Generally speaking, the life span of each animal is limited, that is, their natural years. When an animal lives beyond its natural years, It will become a spirit monster, and this inner elixir will slowly condense in its belly..."
"You can understand that the inner alchemy is the furnace for their cultivation."
When I heard this, my eyes began to shine, but I heard Lao Jiang continue: "These inner elixirs absorb the nutrients in the body during the day, and swallow the essence of the sun and the moon at night. Each of the things that become essence has different effects of the inner elixir. , such as this toad, its inner elixir can spit out poisonous smoke. "
In other words, this inner elixir is the most poisonous part of the body of this toad that has become a spirit. In fact, its poison may be more poisonous than Yin Ling'er's natal Gu!
Because Yin Ling'er's natal Gu doesn't live for hundreds of years.
I swallowed my saliva and asked Lao Jiang: "Then what is the use of taking out this inner elixir?"
Lao Jiang took out a box from his backpack. He opened the box, carefully put the toad's inner elixir into it, and said, "Keep it, it's a good thing anyway."
I suddenly thought of something and said with piercing eyes: "Master, I want to ask you one thing. Can you give me this inner elixir?"
Hearing this, Lao Jiang frowned: "What do you want it to do? This is a highly poisonous thing. If you get a little bit of it, you will die."
I smiled mysteriously: "Maybe we can use it later."
While I was talking, my eyes were fixed on the box, and I couldn't bear to leave it for a moment, as if it had become my treasure!
Lao Jiang looked me up and down and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he seemed to understand what I meant, and he solemnly put the box containing the toad's inner elixir into my hand.
Ge Weihan eagerly came over and said that he wanted it too. Lao Jiang didn't give it, but patted me on the shoulder, and the words of instruction whispered in my ears: "Take it well, I hope you won't need it..."
He and I are both smart people, and there is no need to let others know about some things.
In fact, the reason why I want this inner elixir is to save a killing move to face the next strongest enemy: Wu Xi!
Wuxi would never have expected that as the weakest Kirin member in the team, a huge gift would be given to him.
After doing these things, Lao Jiang urged us to leave as soon as possible.
Without the trouble caused by the toad, the air in the woods finally returned to normal, and we once again felt the long-lost wind.
The lingering smoke gradually dissipated, and we began to look for a way out, and soon found diagonal cross marks on several nearby tree trunks.
Originally Lao Jiang had no hope, and Yin Linger secretly cursed Lao Wu: "This bad uncle is here to cause trouble again and wants to take us into the ditch."
I hold the opposite attitude, thinking that Lao Wu may be intentionally guiding us!
Oddly enough, Graham was also on my side.
Although Lao Jiang ostensibly felt that Lao Wu wanted to harm him, after Ge Weihan and I insisted, he still said he could give it a try.
After all, he also hopes in his heart that Lao Wu is on our side...
