Chapter 94: The Damn Rabbit

~19 min read 3,795 words

Long Xuan waved his hand casually and said, "You guys leave first, don't worry about me. I see that rabbit looks quite cute; I'll see if I can lure it out and catch it!"

Hearing this, Long Yan and the other looked at him with strange expressions, and Long Ziyan's brows furrowed even deeper, but in the end, she didn't say any more words of persuasion.

"Fine! The road is walked by oneself. I hope you won't regret your choice."

After speaking, Long Ziyan finally turned and left, and Long Yan and the other hurriedly followed, showing no nostalgia for this place.

After Long Xuan looked at the backs of the few, he stopped paying attention and focused his attention on that rabbit that was acting cute.

He didn't know what kind of pill this rabbit could refine. A pill refined from a spirit medicine that had become a spirit should be heaven-defying, right? Should he catch it?

Long Xuan revealed a thoughtful expression.

Just as he fell into deep thought, people here had already started to take risks and walk into the medicine garden to take grass.

Without exception, the Gu cultivators who rushed in first were those who didn't have much lifespan left, with aged faces and full of deathly aura.

Since they couldn't live for much longer, they would naturally choose to gamble.

Including several Long clan Gu cultivators who had less than a year of lifespan left, they also rushed in together at this time.

In their view, the Feng clan Gu cultivators were attracting firepower, and all the scary things should have been attracted to that side. The opportunity was rare, and they didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

So they were very decisive, hardened their hearts, and chose to enter the medicine garden at the end furthest from the Feng clan Gu cultivators.

The idea was not wrong, but the reality was very cruel. Things didn't develop as they imagined at all.

How could such a simple strategy as "luring the tiger from the mountain" work here? Otherwise, collecting the Spirit-Charging Grass here would be a very simple matter; how could it have blocked the clans for so many years?

The Dream Butterfly Gu here clearly wasn't attracted by the movement over there and was still honestly guarding in place.

As a result, a large group of the elderly Gu cultivators who entered from this side died instantly.

The state of death was the same as the villagers over there; one head after another flew up, their eyes revealing a look of disbelief, dying with their eyes wide open.

Until they died, they didn't know how they died; they clearly didn't see anything.

However, there were also a few lucky ones. While all the Dream Butterfly Gu were slaughtering others, they coincidentally took advantage of the Dream Butterfly Gu's inability to multitask and successfully picked a Spirit-Charging Grass.

They weren't greedy either; after succeeding, they turned and ran.

Their choice was correct. They made a move once and ran, letting the arriving Dream Butterfly Gu miss their target.

By the time they wanted to pursue again, those few old guys had already run out of the range of the medicine garden, and they could only stop the pursuit.

And there was one old man who was very greedy, feeling that one Spirit-Charging Grass wasn't enough, so he decided to pick another one. He made up his mind that this was the last one; after picking it, he would run and never be nostalgic.

However, his idea finally made his speed a step slower, and he had his head grabbed by the arriving Dream Butterfly Gu. Until he died, his eyes revealed a look of regret.

This scene once again discouraged many people who wanted to enter the medicine garden.

Although some people succeeded just now, most people didn't succeed, and the hope of survival was truly too slim.

That rabbit tilted its head, staring blankly at this scene, with a look of confusion.

It was very strange; why were this group of humans rushing in desperately to grab those weeds? Were they all crazy? It was truly too strange; it couldn't understand at all.

At this time, those few old men who successfully picked the Spirit-Charging Grass revealed an expression of being about to cry with joy, excited to the extreme.

Seeing that it was enough, they collected the Spirit-Charging Grass into their storage bags and immediately left here, not staying any longer.

Everyone looked on with envy, but in the end, no one followed behind to kill people and seize treasures.

Those few people were the highest-level peak Spirit Gathering stage Gu cultivators here. Because they were older, the growth level of their Gu worms was also the highest, and they were definitely not easy to deal with.

If there wasn't a ten-percent certainty, most people wouldn't choose to take the risk of killing people and seizing treasures.

Moreover, there were so many people watching here, and there were their clansmen, so it was truly not easy to make a move.

This was the first batch of people who took the risk to take medicine. Soon, the second batch of people preparing to take the risk finally made a move.

The second batch preparing to make a move was three people. The leader was a youth wearing green clothes. From the clothing and the hat worn on his head, it was enough to see that he came from the Miao clan, one of the seven great clans.

This youth had a look of arrogance, looking at people sideways, and after scanning the crowd with a look of disdain, he took two younger brothers and walked toward the medicine garden.

Looking at the momentum of this youth, Long Xuan knew that he had an extraordinary background; he either had a big background or was a super genius of a clan.

He was lacking in intelligence; he didn't know the top geniuses of each clan, but listening to the discussions of the people around him, he also understood the identity of this youth.

This youth was named Miao Dongdong and was the Miao clan's first genius. At the same time, he was also the only grandson of the Miao clan's Ancestor, considered a heaven's chosen one who gathered talent and background, belonging to an existence that absolutely couldn't be provoked.

Long Xuan sighed. No wonder he was full of arrogance and looked at people with his nostrils; he truly had the capital to be arrogant.

As the Miao clan's first genius, resources for breaking through weren't difficult to obtain; there was simply no need to come here to take risks.

Since he dared to come to this medicine garden, it was enough to show that he had a way to deal with the Dream Butterfly Gu and had a hundred-percent certainty that he wouldn't encounter danger; otherwise, he would absolutely never risk himself.

Long Xuan couldn't help but become curious. What kind of ability did this youth have to be able to survive in the hands of the Dream Butterfly Gu? His curiosity was truly hooked.

The Miao clan youth didn't walk into the medicine garden. He stopped after walking to the edge of the medicine garden.

Then he turned his head and looked at the crowd with a look of contempt, took out a large handful of high-grade spirit medicine from his storage bag, and shook it toward the rabbit's direction.

"Don't you like alchemy? Now you have no alchemy materials; are your hands already itching!"

"My Miao clan is best at cultivating spirit medicine and has a lot of high-grade spirit medicine in hand. If you want it, throw the weeds on the ground over; let's trade grass for medicine!"

After speaking, he turned his head again to look at the crowd, revealing a look of mockery. What kind of IQ did each of them have?

Everyone was stunned on the spot.

Can it still be like this?

This can also be?

That's right! That rabbit can be utilized; why didn't I think of it?

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but excitedly clap their hands, all overjoyed.

Who didn't have a few high-grade spirit medicines in their family wealth? If that rabbit really agreed to trade, then wouldn't it be easy to trade for a few Spirit-Charging Grasses?

Everyone's breathing became rapid, but soon everyone seemed to have been splashed with a bucket of cold water and instantly woke up.

They didn't think at all that they could trade with the rabbit, so they didn't prepare.

Who would be idle and have nothing to do and carry a pile of high-grade spirit medicine on their body? Moreover, this trip was a life-and-death situation, and they were even more afraid to carry high-grade spirit medicine on their bodies. They were crying without tears.

No one thought that things would be so simple. If they had known this, why would they need to rush in and gamble with their lives?

Those few old men just now died truly unjustly. If they knew in the underworld that Spirit-Charging Grass could still be obtained through such a method, I don't know if they would be angered to death again.

Looking at the headless corpses in the medicine garden, no one didn't make such a sigh.

Don't want to use it, that rabbit loves alchemy like its life; it will definitely agree.

That rabbit was just as everyone expected. Seeing someone holding a large handful of high-grade spirit medicine to tempt it, it stood up instantly, revealing a look of joy, and then hopped toward this side.

At this time, everyone's attention was focused here, looking nervously.

And at this time, the Feng clan Gu cultivators over there had already sent all the villagers away. The Feng clan Gu King looked at this scene and looked at the only ten or so Spirit-Charging Grasses in his hand; his face turned livid and was about to drip water.

Just now he still had a look of satisfaction, but now looking at the ten or so Spirit-Charging Grasses in his hand, he suddenly felt it didn't smell good.

If Spirit-Charging Grass could be obtained so easily, then what was the significance of the huge sacrifice made on his side? Didn't the people on his side die in vain?

He suddenly felt that his IQ had been insulted, clenched his fists, and walked toward this side aggressively with the group of Feng clan Gu cultivators behind him.

Long Xuan watched this scene quietly. At this time, he truly didn't know whether to praise Miao Dongdong for being smart or to praise him for being stupid.

A bit smart, but definitely not much.

Couldn't he wait for everyone to leave before playing this set? There were two Gu Kings here now; he would have time to cry later. Long Xuan silently mourned for this person in his heart.

At this time, Miao Dongdong was still triumphant. He liked this feeling of IQ crushing. Seeing everyone's expressions changing, he obtained great satisfaction in his heart and held back the urge to laugh loudly.

"Rabbit! Your medicine garden is full of weeds, not worth money. I see you are cute, so I'll suffer a bit. How about one thousand for one? You trade one thousand weeds for one of my high-grade spirit medicines; you've made a huge profit."

Hearing Miao Dongdong's words, everyone rolled their eyes, unable to help but curse in their hearts. Truly too much of a profiteer; is it really okay to cheat a rabbit like this?

Don't ever think that Spirit-Charging Grass is just a first-grade spirit medicine and very cheap.

Spirit-Charging Grass has a twenty-percent breakthrough effect, and its value cannot be calculated according to low-grade spirit medicine. Saying that the value of Spirit-Charging Grass is more expensive than ordinary fourth-grade spirit medicine is truly not an exaggeration.

If Miao Dongdong traded one high-grade spirit medicine for one thousand weeds in the rabbit's eyes, he would truly make a killing, and everyone would be jealous.

Fortunately, this rabbit looked stupid and cute, but at least it wasn't stupid.

This group of people kept rushing in to die in order to obtain these weeds, which was enough to show that these weeds were things that humans had to obtain even if they paid with their lives.

If it still couldn't see that the weeds in its eyes were very important to humans, then it would truly be stupid.

So the rabbit shook its head, its left claw stretched out one finger, and its right claw also stretched out one finger. Everyone understood what this meant; it clearly meant one for one.

Miao Dongdong's face turned dark, and his tone was unkind: "What kind of joke are you making? That garden of yours is all weeds, and you actually want to trade one for one with me. You're too dark, right? Be kind as a person..."

Miao Dongdong tried to continue to deceive the rabbit, but this rabbit was clearly very shrewd and didn't fall for his trick at all.

Miao Dongdong had even broken his lips, but this rabbit was still stretching out one finger on its left and right claws, indicating one for one, and refused to loosen its mouth no matter what.

Having no choice, Miao Dongdong could only compromise.

"You profiteer! Fine, consider me unlucky. One for one it is. I'll suffer a bit and trade with you; consider it making a friend."

Saying that, Miao Dongdong didn't intend to waste any more time and threw a storage bag of spirit medicine directly over.

Although his face was terribly dark, he was triumphant in his heart. Even if high-grade spirit medicine was traded one for one with Spirit-Charging Grass, it was still a profit, and a huge profit.

The grade and preciousness of spirit medicine are only positively correlated for the most part; it is absolutely not an absolute thing.

One Spirit-Charging Grass might allow a family to have one more Marrow Cleansing stage expert, while one fourth-grade spirit medicine is just a material for alchemy, and it is highly probable that it will be refined into waste. There is no need to say which of the two has higher value.

His Miao clan is best at planting spirit medicine; that storage bag is filled with ten thousand spirit medicines of third grade or above.

This stupid rabbit doesn't know the market and really wants to trade one for one with him. Then how many Marrow Cleansing stage experts will his family have out of thin air? Dominating the Far West would be more than enough, right? He was longing for the future there, his face revealing a look of yearning.

However, his expression soon stiffened, and his face turned dark again.

Because that damn rabbit was truly too picky, actually throwing away the vast majority of his spirit medicine like trash, looking extremely disgusted.

That was ten thousand high-grade spirit medicines; in the end, it only kept two hundred.

"*Damn it! Those are all fourth-grade spirit medicines! Do you know the goods or not! *"

Miao Dongdong's heart ached terribly. He hurriedly picked up the spirit medicine on the ground with a few younger brothers, shook off the dust stuck on it, and put it into another storage bag.

At this time, he had the heart to kill this rabbit.

It had to be said that this rabbit's eye for goods was truly poisonous. The two hundred spirit medicines it chose were all the most valuable spirit medicines in this storage bag.

This rabbit's eye for goods was very picky. Could it not be picky? It could actually treat Spirit-Charging Grass as weeds; from this, you can see how picky its eye for goods was.

It treated most of Miao Dongdong's spirit medicine as trash, which was completely reasonable.

The onlookers looked at each other. This rabbit was truly too picky, right? It was a bit hard to deal with. High-grade spirit medicine could be obtained by anyone, but high-grade spirit medicine that met its requirements was truly too hard to find.

At this time, that rabbit happily held the two hundred high-grade spirit medicines and left. Seeming to have thought of something again, it returned, pulled out two hundred weeds at random, and threw them out, throwing them all over Miao Dongdong's face.

It seemed it was a rabbit that kept its word.

Everyone who saw this scene felt their breathing become rapid. That was two hundred Spirit-Charging Grasses.

What kind of concept was two hundred Spirit-Charging Grasses? Each of the seven great clans in the Far West only had a hundred or so Marrow Cleansing stage Gu cultivators. How many Marrow Cleansing stage experts would two hundred Spirit-Charging Grasses bring to a clan?

You can completely imagine the value of these Spirit-Charging Grasses. This huge wealth was enough to make anyone's eyes red.

You can imagine that once Miao Dongdong brings these two hundred Spirit-Charging Grasses back to the family, the strength of the Miao clan will get a qualitative leap.

That Gu King clone of the Gu clan had an uncertain expression. Two hundred Spirit-Charging Grasses were enough to allow the family to have several more Marrow Cleansing stage Gu cultivators, which could increase the family's strength by several percent in a short time. The temptation was truly too big; how could he not be tempted?

At this time, no one noticed this person's expression. Everyone ran over, taking out all their treasures to trade with that rabbit.

They didn't prepare high-grade spirit medicine in advance, but they had other treasures. Maybe that rabbit could use them.

For example, alchemy furnaces, books on alchemy, spirit pills...

That rabbit was transformed from spirit medicine; its essence was a spirit medicine, so it must like spirit water and spirit soil.

There were too many things that could tempt it; they didn't believe this rabbit wouldn't take the bait.

So from time to time, someone threw treasures into the medicine garden, looking at that rabbit with expectation.

Looking at the treasures all over the ground, the rabbit revealed a look of joy, picking and choosing with a picky gaze, and was dazzled for a while.

But as long as it took a fancy to something, it would throw a weed outside, very honestly.

It also threw out the things it didn't want and never embezzled them.

However, no matter what treasure it took a fancy to, it would only throw one weed out and never throw two.

It also learned to be a profiteer, knowing that it didn't understand the market in the human world and didn't understand what the value of each treasure was, so it simply set a unified price, all being one weed.

Trade if you want, don't trade if you don't want to; it refused to bargain.

Long Xuan was also interested at this time, leaned over, and rummaged through his storage bag.

To tell the truth, he really wasn't lacking in fourth-grade spirit medicine. The medicine garden was full of fourth-grade spirit medicine, including many rare spirit medicines that were rare in the world.

Especially since he loved planting flowers and loved planting trees.

One had to know that although spirit trees belong to spirit medicine, the value of a whole tree is not equal to one spirit grass. The conversion relationship between the two is one fruit, or a few leaves, equal to one spirit grass or spirit flower, so although his medicine garden is not large in area, it is truly too rich.

But it's a pity that he doesn't have the ability of precognition and couldn't predict what would happen in the tomb. How could he carry a large amount of high-grade spirit medicine on his body in advance? So he didn't have a single fourth-grade spirit medicine in his hand at this time.

Plus most of the treasures were on the main body, he rummaged through the storage bag for a long time and didn't find anything good.

Finally, he finally found a carrot and his eyes lit up instantly.

He had planted a large vegetable garden, and carrots were just one of them. He didn't expect to accidentally find a carrot in the storage bag. Weren't carrots exactly the rabbit's favorite?

Without thinking, he immediately threw the carrot into the medicine garden, accurately throwing it beside the rabbit.

The rabbit heard the movement beside it, picked up this carrot, sniffed it with its nose, and instantly revealed a look of disgust, throwing the carrot onto Long Xuan's face.

It was actually a first-grade spirit medicine. Among this group of people, he was the stingiest; truly asking for a beating!

Long Xuan caught the falling carrot, his expression stunned. Isn't the rabbit's favorite food carrots? Why does it seem like something is wrong?

At this time, the others were trading vigorously, and many people had a rich harvest, with joyful smiles hanging on their faces.

Especially an old man who happened to carry a large number of alchemy books and pill formulas, and that stupid rabbit's rule was that any treasure could be traded for one weed. He had truly made a killing.

After dealing with the useless miscellaneous books, he actually traded for seventy Spirit-Charging Grasses. His mouth smiled into a chrysanthemum.

And his harvest, if there were no accidents, attracted a few greedy gazes again, one of which came from that Gu King clone of the Gu clan.

At this time, Long Xuan finally stopped paying attention to that rabbit that didn't know what was good for it. After looking at the two Gu Kings with his peripheral vision, his heart sank.

Don't tell him that the Gu Kings were very poor and couldn't take out things that satisfied the rabbit; he absolutely wouldn't believe it.

There were clearly so many treasures in their storage bags, yet they didn't come over to trade with this rabbit. Then what exactly did they want to do?

Don't say that the two Gu Kings weren't interested in Spirit-Charging Grass. If they weren't interested in Spirit-Charging Grass, they wouldn't have chosen to come to this medicine garden.

There was a conspiracy, absolutely a big conspiracy.

Could it be that they were thinking of pitting everyone here to death and swallowing everyone's Spirit-Charging Grass alone?

Long Xuan suddenly felt a chill on his back and thought with shock.

When a person is strong enough to easily kill everyone, and everyone has treasures that make him tempted, then what is the possibility of him starting a massacre?

Long Xuan's answer in his heart was 90%.
