Chapter 22 Five Forms and Six Bodies

The scorching white light flashed, and Li Kong's eyes were filled with golden light, and at that moment, he saw a humanoid creature in terror, kicking over the boiler and running to the cave dug in the corner.

When Su Lan reacted, Li Kong had already chased after him, but his movements were incoherent, resulting in only a few ginseng roots being torn off when he stretched out his hand.

The ginseng did not transform into a human form, but fled quickly in its ontological form, which puzzled Li Kong, this ginseng still maintained its original appearance in the boiling water, not only dodging the attack of ordinary fire, but also escaping the scorching of thunder fire, which was incomprehensible to Li Kong.

Back then, although Nanyang Zhenren told him some supernatural events about the spiritual objects of heaven and earth, he also described the matter of ginseng becoming essence, and even explained the method of refining ginseng essence and rubbing pills into medicine with him.

But at this time, this scene that Li Kong saw completely subverted his cognition of the knowledge he had learned, since it was ginseng, why couldn't it be cooked, and it could still escape under the condition of thunder fire, could this ginseng belong to a mutant species?

With doubts in his heart, he kept thinking in his mind, and he thought of various possibilities in an instant, but in the end he vetoed them all.

"It's all boiling, how can you still run?" When Su Lan came back to her senses, she gritted her teeth angrily, her beautiful eyes frowned, and she couldn't wait to unload the ginseng into eight pieces.

"It's not going to get far, we're going to dig it all up. As he spoke, Li Kong had already moved, but his chest injury had not healed, and when he moved, he pulled the wound and grinned in pain.

"If we demolish this place, it will be difficult to explain when we see Qingyun Dao Chang in the future!" Although Su Lan said this, he picked up the wooden stick on the ground and began to dig the soil.

Before hesitating, the hole of the cave had been cut open by Li Kong, but now it was not difficult to continue to go deeper along the hole.

Soon, a half-man-deep cave appeared, with some dry leaves and yellow grass underneath, and the shadow of ginseng.

"I can't dig this side. After being busy for most of the day, the two dug up a hard bluestone.

The surface of the bluestone is smooth, there is no gap, extending several zhang outward, and the two of them dug along the surface of the bluestone until the gate of the courtyard, and then they saw that the bluestone is an oval natural boulder.

"For no reason, how could he suddenly disappear?" When asked just now, Li Kong ignored it, he was thinking about the possibility of the ginseng soil escaping, and now that Su Lan spoke again, if he didn't say anything again, it would make Su Lan even more distressed.

Thinking of this, Li Kong opened his mouth and explained: "Ginseng has five shapes and six bodies, although we have not observed it in detail before, but I already know the basic form in my chest, and the five forms have reeds, swords, bodies, whiskers, and lines. The reed is the rhizome, the stem is the adventitious root, the body is the taproot and skin of ginseng, the whisker is the fibrous root and pearl point of ginseng, and the grain is the horizontal stripe on the taproot of ginseng. ”

"What does this have to do with its sudden disappearance?" Su Lan became more and more confused the more she listened.

"This is related to the six bodies of ginseng. The six bodies are for the taproot of ginseng, and under normal circumstances, they are divided into old, tender, horizontal, smooth, spiritual, and stupid. The older the ginseng, the more wrinkled and old the body surface is, but the ginseng essence we just captured is fine skin and tender meat, like white radish, which is completely opposite to the appearance of thousand-year-old ginseng.

I heard from the master that the body surface of the thousand-year-old ginseng essence has brownish-yellow pearl particles, and the whole body is yellow and black, with obvious vicissitudes, but the shape of the legs and feet is distinct, exquisite and beautiful, like a rickety old man, although it is twilight, but it shows the light of the years. ”

Li Kong pointed to the bluestone and continued: "This thing goes against common sense, and it must be related to something under this bluestone. If you are not mistaken, there should be spiritual root water underneath it to nourish it. ”

"What is Linggen Water?" At this moment, Su Lan was completely convinced, don't look at Li Kong's sometimes out of tune, but his thinking and comprehension are higher than ordinary people, and the calmness he shows when he thinks seriously shows his intelligence.

"It is rare for ordinary ginseng to have more than two kinds of physique, but the one we caught before has both six bodies, coupled with the nourishment of spiritual root water, I am afraid that this thing has already understood the method of earth escape, so it can escape and hide under the blue stones. ”

Li Kong's explanation has a feeling that makes people suddenly open, Su Lan looked at him with a little more appreciation, and three points of tenderness, the transmission of this kind of expression, slowly accentuated Li Kong's status in her heart, and gradually improved.

"You have a wound in your chest, let me break the bluestone. Su Lan drew his sword in his hand, and as soon as the words fell, he had already slashed down.
