Chapter Seventy-Seven: Rootless Water
"But what?" I asked quickly.
The old man said: "The medicinal materials for detoxification are relatively rare and valuable. ”
"Of course, this is not a problem, we can buy it with some money from the Hu family. ”
"The problem is that this medicine primer is relatively rare, and it is not something that can be bought with money. ”
Quan Ling immediately said, "No matter how Nanxun is, I must find it." ”
"Sir, tell me, what is this medicine primer?"
The old man of the savage said: "The medicine primer needs to be soaked in rootless water that has been soaked in yin qi for a hundred years. ”
"What's that?" I asked, curious, for the first time I'd heard of rootless water.
The old savage said, "Rootless water is water that has never touched the soil. In our industry, it is generally believed that rain is the most authentic rootless water. ”
I was dumbfounded: "Rain...... What's so hard to find here. ”
The old savage explained, "Rootless water is easy to find. But the rootless water soaked in the yin qi of a hundred years is nowhere to be found. ”
"Rootless water needs to be soaked in a hundred years of yin qi without touching the soil. Where can I find this?"
Hearing the old savage man say this, I suddenly felt a headache.
The rainwater will come into contact with the soil when it lands, and it will take hundreds of years to be moistened by the yin qi, and it is indeed difficult to find the rainwater that has not touched the ground.
The walker said, "Rootless water, I think there is a place that may exist.
I immediately asked, "Where is it?"
The walker said, "Mass graves." Preferably mass graves with bones exposed. ”
The old man of the savage slapped his head violently: "Yes, the probability of finding rootless water in the mass grave is relatively high." ”
"If the surface of the ground is exposed and rainwater accumulates in it, it will not only ensure that the rainwater does not stick to the soil, but also ensure that the rainwater is soaked with the yin qi of the bones. ”
I nodded, "Okay, let's go find the mass grave." ”
Quan Ling said, "I know that there is a mass grave nearby, so I'll take you to find it now." ”
I immediately stopped Quan Ling: "Quan Ling, we must leave someone to watch the master." ”
Quan Ling nodded, looked at the old savage, then at Wushuang, and finally his gaze fell on me.
"Yifan, you stay and take care of the master, and I'll take them to find rootless water. ”
Obviously, Quan Ling can't trust the savage old man and Wushuang, so he can only let me stay.
And how can I leave it alone and let the spring spirit trek through the mountains and rivers?
I said, "Quanling, you should stay, and I'll go find rootless water." ”
Quan Ling hesitated.
Wushuang interjected at this time: "I'm with my master. ”
In the end, there was no way, so Quan Ling had to stay.
She showed us the direction of the mass grave, and we hurried to find it.
Before leaving, I repeatedly told Quan Ling to notify us with two kicks in case of danger.
The mass grave is not far from here, and we see two kicks, and they will immediately turn back.
We followed the instructions of the spring spirit and climbed up the mountain along the bamboo forest.
Climbing over this mountain, at the foot of the opposite mountain, is the mass grave that Quan Ling said.
Quan Ling told us that this mass grave was left over from the Republic of China.
It is said that there was once a nest of bandits entrenched on this mountain, and then a warlord passed by here and exterminated the bandits.
Hundreds of bandits were buried at the foot of the mountain.
Because of the panic, there are still many bodies that are not buried in the ground.
Counting the time, it is just over a hundred years now.
The physical fitness of the walker and the old man of the savage is very strong and fast.
And I'm a mortal in the flesh, and I can't keep up with them.
In the end, Wushuang insisted on carrying me, and his attitude was very decisive.
In order to find the rootless water to cure the master as soon as possible, I can only temporarily wronged the walker.
On the way, Wushuang suddenly whispered to me: "Master, when I fought in the Hu family's old mansion, I had awakened some previous memories. ”
I was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "What do you remember?"
The walker said, "I remember that in this world, there are many walkers who protect the ghost eyes like me. ”
"At its peak, there were as many as 100 walkers. ”
"I think there must be survivors in this world, and we have to hurry up and find other walkers. ”
I sighed, "Hey, Wushuang, actually, I've met Walkers before. The walker had died to protect me. ”
"The walker told me that there might still be walkers in the place where you were trapped. Somewhere else......"
"Let me tell you, you may be the last walker in this world. ”
The walker immediately shook his head: "No, master, it's not like this. ”
"Walkers, there are also levels. There are low-level walkers, and there are high-level walkers. ”
"The inferior walkers are mortal beings of the flesh, who will be born, old, sick and die. ”
"And the high-level walkers have already used secret techniques to transform into immortal bodies...... Same as this old man. ”
He's talking about the old savage.
Now the old savage is no longer alive, but he still has intelligence and can move freely.
"This kind of walker is very difficult to kill. I think there must be such walkers in the world. ”
"We must find them and protect you together. ”
After listening to her, I was a little excited.
This world is too mysterious.
The physical body is obviously dead, without the physical characteristics of a living person, but it can still think and walk like a living person, and it will not die.
I really don't know if such an existence is their luck or their misfortune.
The old savage seemed to see my doubts, and smiled miserably: "Young man, do you think that it is a good thing that a monster like me, who is not human or corpse, can live a long life." ”
"Let's be honest with you. If it weren't for the heavy responsibility on my shoulders, I would have wanted to die. ”
"If you think about it, what is the point of being alive when a person has lost any sense, including smell and taste, and has nothing to enjoy? ”
I sighed, "Old man, is there a way to restore your sense of smell and taste?"
The old man smiled miserably: "The human body is already dead, how can it be resurrected?"
"I'm bent on dying now. ”
"When you save your master, I hope you can let the walker avenge the hundreds of people in my Hu family. After that, the old man will die. ”
"Now, death is a relief for me. ”
The walker continued, "Master, what is the relationship between you and your master, as well as the spring spirit?"
"I think it's imperative that we find other walkers first. ”
"I have a strong sense of crisis, and I feel that we are now being watched by countless pairs of eyes. The owners of those eyes may jump out and hurt us at any time. ”
"I'm worried that I won't be able to protect my master alone. ”
I could hear what the walker meant.
The walker felt that if I was not good with Quan Ling and the master, I would leave them alone for the time being.
But how can I leave them alone?
I solemnly said to Wushuang: "Master and Quan Ling have saved my life, and I have always treated them as family, it is impossible for me to sit idly by and ignore them. ”
"In the future, if you encounter them in danger, you should also help them as much as possible, understand?"
The walker was a little helpless, but she didn't dare to disobey my orders, so she could only nod.
Soon, we came to the foot of the hill and found the mass grave without any problems.
The mass grave is at the foot of the mountain, and there are only a few small earthen bags at the municipal level, which are overgrown with weeds and weeds, and are extremely desolate.
It seems that few people will come to this place.
I was just about to look for it, but the walker suddenly whispered, "Master, there seems to be someone coming ahead." ”
I immediately looked up and saw a lot of fire in front of me, and it was rapidly approaching us.
The one who appeared in this barren mountain in the middle of the night was definitely not a good stubble.
I didn't want to make a fuss, so I decided to find a place to avoid it for the time being.
Finally we came to a thick bush and grass and hid for the time being.
The fires quickly approached, and I took a look and saw that there were at least thirty people on the other side.
The leader was a strong man with a bare body, and a big fat man with two hundred pounds.
The big fat man also carried a bamboo basket on his back, which should contain a very heavy thing.
At this moment, the big fat man was tired and paralyzed on the ground, panting like a cow.
The naked strong man kicked the fat man dissatisfiedly: "A waste one, it's only been a long run, and I'm tired like this." ”
The fat man smiled awkwardly, but didn't sit up.
The naked man said, "Alright, let's take action." ”
"Finish your work early and go home to receive your reward. ”
The people behind him came to the fat man and pulled something out of the basket on his back.
It was too far away for me to see what they had taken out of the basket.
When their men approached us with their things, I was surprised to find that what they were holding were actually white bones.
And looking at the appearance of the bones, nine times out of ten they are human thigh bones!
