Oh no! Seven kids at the start, all yellow and skinny.

Chapter 313 Little Green Dragon

“This kid Shitou came to help me before. He’s pretty brave, and he even knows some martial arts. What could possibly scare him like that?” Wang Tianshun frowned.

"I don't know," Yunyi shook her head. "I'll have to go and see for myself."

"Then now he..."

“I’ll stabilize his soul, he’ll be fine after a few days of rest.” Yunyi said, dipping her finger in the water from the glass next to her and drawing a talisman on the stone’s forehead. “He’ll probably sleep for three or four days, don’t worry about him, he’ll be fine when he wakes up.”

Wang Tianshun nodded.

"Were you drawing a talisman just now?" Zhou Jingyu couldn't help but ask Yunyi after leaving the medicine hut.

"Yes," Yunyi nodded.

"I've seen the Imperial Advisor draw talismans; it requires preparation to begin a day in advance, including bathing and fasting, and then..."

Yun Yi chuckled, interrupting Zhou Jingyu.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"When did our country have a national advisor?" Yunyi couldn't find it in the original owner's memories.

"It's normal that you don't know. He never announced it to the public. He was just kept in the palace. He entered the palace two years before my accident. His name is Master Taichu."

"A Taoist priest?" Yun Yi frowned, recalling the Illusion Star Taoist and the Reincarnation Taoist that Mo Li had mentioned before, and now another Primordial Taoist has appeared.

Throughout history, every dynasty has valued religious sects, whether it be Buddhism or Taoism. Both religions have held a pivotal position in the development of history.

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not place more importance on any particular sect, so the development of Buddhism and Taoism was quite balanced.

For example, Huguo Temple was named after the monks who once protected Emperor Gaozu. Later, Taoist priests also contributed to the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, there is also Taiping Temple in the capital.

“Yes.” Zhou Jingyu took a deep breath. “Actually, I didn’t even know how he got here when I was still the Crown Prince. Although he didn’t show himself in public, my father trusted him a lot. I only met him by chance, and that’s how my father introduced him to me. After that, I saw him draw a talisman once, in the Imperial Study. At that time…”

"Was he waving a peach wood sword around back and forth, and then suddenly setting some yellow paper on fire at the tip of the sword, or setting his own palm on fire?"

"how do you know?"

"Then, when drawing the talisman, no one can get close. We also need to prepare sacrificial offerings of three kinds of animals, as well as the finest cinnabar and yellow paper..."

Zhou Jingyu's mouth dropped open in surprise, but she quickly closed it and then laughed: "Is he bluffing? Or is he lying?"

"It's not fair to call it deception, it's just that his skill level is only a tiny bit." Yun Yi gestured with her fingers. "Those moves and objects are just to confuse everyone. After all, laymen just want to watch the show." She paused for a moment. "True masters don't limit themselves to any medium, or rather, everything can become a medium for talismans."

"Hehe." Zhou Jingyu laughed. "Like when you draw talismans in the air?"

“Yes.” Yunyi nodded. “Alright, you should go back now. I’m going into the mountains to take a look.”

Yun Hong was no longer recognizable as pretty. After spending three or four days in the mountains, she looked like a wild child, but her eyes were bright and she was clearly in good spirits. As soon as she saw Yun Yi, she became excited: "Miss, you've come."

"How is it?" Yunyi walked over.

"That's good, except that something happened to Stone. Monkey sent him back. How is he?"

"Where did he have the accident?"

“This…” Yun Hong hesitated for a moment, “He was in the accident with Zhao Xiaobei, and Zhao Xiaobei brought him down, but he still needs to continue training, so he asked Brother Monkey to make the trip.”

Monkey Sixteen, who was following beside him, pounded his chest, as if to say that it was the gift from him.

Yunyi patted Monkey Sixteen's head: "Let's go find Zhao Xiaobei."

Zhao Xiaobei was currently fighting a snake. It was the dead of winter, and snakes should be hibernating, but for some reason, this snake, which was as thick as a child's wrist, was not asleep. After Zhao Xiaobei stepped on it, it turned its head and tried to bite, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged it.

Then the man and the snake started fighting.

Although Zhao Xiaobei is not a master, he is quite skilled among ordinary people. With the training he has received these past few days, dealing with a snake should not be difficult for him.

However, the snake was surprisingly fast. Although it didn't bite Zhao Xiaobei, it also didn't manage to hit him.

In short, the man and the snake fought back and forth until they were evenly matched.

However, Zhao Xiaobei knew that if he couldn't escape or kill the snake, he would eventually be bitten to death, because the snake looked extremely venomous and was clearly stronger than him.

Sure enough, half an hour passed back and forth, and Zhao Xiaobei's strength was obviously declining. When he saw the snake's mouth coming down to bite his neck, he felt that he could not dodge it and could only accept his fate.

But before he could even close his eyes and await his death, the giant snake, which was already within arm's reach, suddenly fell to the ground with a thud.

"Are you alright?" Yunyi walked over.

"Master." Zhao Xiaobei's eyes reddened, and he trembled with fear.

"It's alright now." Yunyi bent down and picked up the large snake that she had knocked unconscious. "It's a little green dragon, and quite a rare creature."

"Miss, what's so rare about this snake? There are plenty of them in the mountains. Besides, it's clearly a snake, so why is it called a dragon?" Yun Hong frowned. She could only tell whether it was poisonous or not, but she really didn't know the species.

"This snake is also known as Little Green Dragon, and its venom is very useful." Yunyi played with the snake in her hand. She had raised it in the mission world before. This snake is called Mangshan Ironhead Snake, also known as Mangshan Spearhead Viper, and has other names such as White-tailed Snake, Rare Snake, and Little Green Dragon.

However, this snake is quite sensitive to temperature. It usually hibernates when the temperature is below 12 degrees Celsius and only wakes up when the temperature is above 20 degrees Celsius. Although it is not cold in the mountains now, the temperature is at most around 10 degrees Celsius. This guy is not hibernating.

"Miss, you're not going to keep it as a pet, are you?" Yun Hong suddenly exclaimed.

Yunyi was taken aback, then looked up at Yunyi: "It's not impossible."

Yun Hong's lips twitched; it would have been better not to ask.

"Alright, it's good that Xiao Bei is alright." Yun Yi said, rolling the snake up and stuffing it into her backpack. Then, she paused and threw it into her spatial storage.

Apart from the spirit leaf, no other living thing can exist in this space. Even unconscious living things couldn't survive before. Today, she wants to give it a try.

Zhao Xiaobei had recovered by this time: "Thank you for saving my life, Chief."

"Can you still walk?"

Zhao Xiaobei nodded: "I was just scared, but I'm not injured and I can walk."

"Take me to the place where the stone had the accident."
