At the beginning, you will meet a fox demon and be taught the art of immortality

At three quarters after the evening, a crescent moon appeared in the sky.

After returning to the county government office from Captain Wu's yard, Su Rui stayed in his room and took out the snake venom sac he had collected in the morning. He carefully drew out a drop of venom with a homemade long stick.

The snake venom is milky white, but judging from its appearance, it is difficult to tell whether it is poison or milk unless you tell it.

Su Rui put his nose close to it and sniffed it, and it smelled fishy and sweet. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt a little dizzy.

"Is he poisoned?" Su Rui was shocked and hurriedly put the poison far away.

Originally, he was worried about what kind of animal to catch to test the poison, but now, he felt that it was not necessary.

Then he grabbed a toad that he had caught last night from under the bed and carefully picked out some toad venom with a tile.

This toad venom is also milky white and smells a little fishy. This time, Su Rui did not feel dizzy. This thing is highly poisonous, but it is also a medicinal material, and the price is very high. He remembered that there were people who specialized in raising it on Earth before he traveled through time.

Su Rui took out another porcelain utensil and scraped the toad venom off the tiles and put it into a small porcelain bottle.

I squeezed all the pus on the toad's back before throwing it out of the window, letting it continue to grow.

Then he took out a small bamboo tube and made a small blowpipe according to the steps he remembered. He also cut a toothpick and rolled a tail fin with paper.

Just like that, a simple and reliable fool-proof hidden weapon - blow dart was made!

Su Rui drew a small dart board on the wooden board, picked up the blowgun from a distance of ten feet and blew hard. With a whoosh, he hit the second ring.

Su Rui pulled out the toothpick from the dartboard with satisfaction. Hitting the second ring was better than he expected.

Then he made an embroidery needle blowgun, also with a rolled-up tail fin, and hit the target at the same distance of ten feet, with a depth of three inches.

The attack power of using an embroidery needle as a blowgun is more than twice that of using a toothpick!

Su Rui decided to use embroidery needles to make blowguns as a temporary means of ambush. Of course, when encountering real enemies, he would add some ingredients, such as snake venom, toad venom, etc.

Today's Youshi class, Captain Wu taught him some dietary taboos for strengthening the body and common sense about hidden weapons, but he didn't really teach him how to use hidden weapons. So, in the short term, he can only rely on the "gadgets" he made to protect himself.

He had originally wanted to make a slingshot as a means of long-range attack, but there were no rubber bands in this world, so he could only use beef tendons instead. He would send his servants to the market tomorrow to buy them before making them.

After packing up the blowgun and the porcelain bottle of venom, it was almost midnight. Su Rui looked up at the night sky. The Pleiades constellation was already clearly visible, so he began to draw on the power of the stars.

Three quarters of an hour later, the star power in his eye had been saturated, and he immediately began to refine it.

Probably because he had already mastered the art of "The Golden Eye of Maori", the speed of refining the star power tonight was much faster than yesterday. However, some of the star power dissipated during the refining process. As a result, some free space appeared in his eye orifices. So, he started a new round of practice of guiding and refining the star power.

It was not until midnight that he felt his eye orifices begin to feel full, and then he stopped practicing.

Perhaps because he had lived too full of life, Su Rui found that he was not sleepy at all when he lay in bed. He reviewed what he had gained today: first, he officially entered the "Mori Golden Light Pupil"; second, he had two more martial arts teachers and learned the "Ape Fencing Technique"; third, he prepared a three-piece set of self-defense: blowgun, poison and peach wood sword.

After careful calculation, the gains were quite a lot. With these, he now had a little support when he went out.

As he was thinking, he felt a little hungry, and then he remembered that he had not had dinner yet.

When he was on Earth, he had developed a habit of eating supper before going to bed, but he stopped doing that after crossing over. Now he was hungry and couldn't sleep, so he simply got up, lit an oil lamp and headed to the kitchen.

In order to avoid oil smoke, the kitchen of the inner courtyard was set up in the backyard of the county government office, on the left side of the back door of the county government office, not too far from the west wing of the inner courtyard where Su Rui lived.

The inner courtyard was very quiet late at night. The Su family and servants had all fallen asleep. Only a lantern was still emitting a faint yellow light.

Su Rui walked along the corridor towards the backyard. In order to avoid waking up others and having to explain himself, he deliberately walked lightly.

However, when he stepped into the backyard and looked towards the kitchen, he suddenly discovered that the light in the kitchen was on!

People in this world don’t like eating midnight snacks!

Is this haunted?

Suddenly remembering the Chen family's corpse-predating case, Su Rui felt a little scared, but at the same time he was curious and wanted to know whether it was man-made or haunted.

This is a common trait of human beings, being curious and afraid of death!

He thought about it and decided to go back to the house to get the three items of self-defense: blowgun, poison and peach wood sword, and then sneak over to see what was going on.

Half a moment later, when he returned to the inner courtyard again, the light in the kitchen was still on.

Su Rui held the peach wood sword, blew out the oil lamp in his hand, and then quietly approached.

Through the kitchen window, Su Rui saw a magical scene.

He Hua is killing a chicken in the kitchen!

To be precise, the one who killed the chicken in the kitchen was not He Hua, but a furry little fox. The little fox had two tails behind it, its hair was red as fire, and its eyes were clear and faintly fluorescent.

Su Rui did not actively open the Maori Golden Light Pupils, but the moment he saw the lotus, his pupils were passively opened for a moment. Only then did he see through the true form of the lotus!

"Is it actually a fox demon?" Su Rui thought to himself, "It is said that foxes love to eat chickens, no wonder He Hua's eyes turned green when she saw the chicken soup! But why does this fox demon look so weak that it can't even kill a chicken?"

Su Rui looked out the window for a while. The chicken in the kitchen still hadn't been killed, but his stomach was already rumbling with hunger.

He couldn't help it, so he took out his blowgun and wanted to add some toad venom, and turned "Lotus" over before eating. But then he thought, "Lotus" hadn't done anything bad in the past two days, and what bad intentions could a little fox demon who secretly killed chickens at night but couldn't even kill chickens have?

So he put the blowgun back into his arms, picked up the peach wood sword for the sake of caution, and pushed open the door of the kitchen.

"Lotus!" Su Rui first called out in a low voice, taking the lead in seizing the fox.

The fox, who was killing a chicken inside, was frightened when he heard the door open.

He suddenly changed back to his original form and tried to escape through the window.

But when she heard Suri's voice, she hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly changed back into the image of the maid Lotus.

"Master, why are you here?"

Realizing that its identity had been exposed, it began to speak incoherently.

"If I don't come, you might not be able to eat the chicken!" Su Rui said angrily, "I just saw you killing a chicken outside for a long time but couldn't kill it! You are a fox demon, how come you can't even kill a chicken?"

"I've never killed a chicken~" Lotus said in a low voice embarrassedly.

Su Rui rolled his eyes. He hung the peach wood sword back on his back, and then he reached out to grab the chicken whose neck was already scarred but not dead. He said, "You go light a fire and boil water, and I'll kill the chicken. As promised, when the chicken is cooked, we'll each have half!"

He Hua wanted to say something, but when she saw Su Rui had already started to bleed the chicken, she felt a chill on her neck. She dared not say anything and went to light the fire.
