Chapter 52: Spirit Beast Forest
As if knowing the doubts in Qin Sheng's heart, Lin Tingzhi immediately explained: "Back then, I thought that the blood jade vine could prolong the life of my nephew, but with my painstaking study in the holy sword over the years, I finally came to the conclusion that although the blood jade vine could prolong my nephew's life for a few years, it would aggravate the deterioration of his body. ”
After a pause, Lin Tingzhi then said: "Unless we can find the corresponding medicine to neutralize the several toxins in the blood jade vine, otherwise relying on the blood jade vine alone, although it can also prolong the lifespan, but its harm is even greater, even if we find a way in the end, I am afraid that it will not be able to return to the sky." ”
After listening to Lin Tingzhi's explanation, Qin Sheng was immediately relieved, and then said to Ling Yang: "Brother Ling Yang, are you rushing back at this moment for the sake of your junior brother Lin Mo's illness?"
Ling Yang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, "How do you know?"
Qin Sheng smiled slightly: "I know your senior uncle, so I also know a little bit about this matter, the blood jade vine you bought at the auction house before was to prolong the life of your junior brother, am I right?"
"That's right! Uncle Shi said before he disappeared that as long as he could find the blood jade vine, he could help my junior brother relieve his condition, so I was in a hurry to go back. After a pause, Ling Yang immediately said quickly: "But don't worry, as long as Xiaosheng is in need, I will rush back as soon as possible, your life is saved by you, as long as you have any orders, I will definitely not refuse." ”
Seeing Ling Yang say so solemnly, Qin Sheng couldn't help but cry and laugh: "Brother Ling Yang, you misunderstood, I didn't think so, I just want to tell you that you bring this blood jade vine back now to your junior brother, although it can delay his life for a few years, but it will also aggravate the deterioration of his body, so I am afraid that even after your senior uncle comes back, he will not be able to return to the sky." ”
When Ling Yang heard this, his face changed again and again, and his tone was a little shocked: "Xiao Sheng, what you said is true?"
It's not that Ling Yang doesn't believe in Qin Sheng, although the two have only known each other for more than two months, Ling Yang knows Qin Sheng's personality very well, and he definitely won't use this kind of thing to deceive him because he wants to leave him behind.
Moreover, Qin Sheng's alchemy ability, Ling Yang has also personally experienced, compared to his senior uncle, it is only higher than his uncle, so for Qin Sheng's words, Ling Yang also has to be cautious.
In fact, in Ling Yang's eyes, Qin Sheng's alchemy ability actually belonged to Lin Tingzhi, who had been cultivating in the Holy Sword for so many years, and now Lin Tingzhi's alchemy technique was several percent higher than before, otherwise he would not have discovered the harmfulness of the blood jade vine to Lin Mo's condition.
"Of course, besides, your junior brother's current situation will not be fine in five years, so don't rush to give him this blood jade vine, maybe within five years I can find a way to save your junior brother. Qin Sheng said confidently.
In fact, this is what Lin Tingzhi said to him, and now he has to copy it.
When Ling Yang heard this, a bright light burst out in his eyes, and he looked at Qin Sheng with a hopeful expression, and his tone was a little trembling: "Xiaosheng, you...... Can you really find a way to cure my junior brother in five years?"
"If there are no accidents, you can, but you may need your help then, you know my situation, the theory is reasonable, but the actual implementation depends on you. Qin Sheng pretended to say.
"No problem, of course it's no problem, as long as you can think of a way, it's all right for my life. Ling Yang replied without thinking about it.
Looking at Ling Yang, who was so excited in front of him, Lin Tingzhi was also emotional. Qin Sheng hurriedly said, "Brother Lingyang, what do I want your life to do." ”
Ling Yang scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "It's me who is too excited, since you say so, then I won't go back for the time being, I want to learn alchemy with you, Xiaosheng hopes you can agree." ”
When Qin Sheng heard this, he smiled slightly: "Brother Lingyang, when did I refuse to teach you, as long as you are willing, I can teach you at any time." ”
After Ling Yang was grateful again, he immediately dispelled the idea of leaving.
Ling Yang's stay naturally made Qin Sheng a little happy, after all, being able to have a strong martial arts sect by his side would also have a little more guarantee in terms of safety.
After a few days, Ling'er was still learning alchemy knowledge with Ling Yang these days, and on the one hand, she was also stepping up her cultivation.
Actually, Ling'er wasn't too enthusiastic about these, but this was what the young master wanted her to do, so she did it. Moreover, the young master and the eldest brother Ling Yang both praised her talent in this area, which made her more motivated.
Every time she saw the young master's hard cultivation, Ling'er felt very distressed in her heart, so she also wanted to help the young master. So for the things that the young master ordered, she always did her best and completed them meticulously.
However, with the contact these days, Ling'er has gradually fallen in love with alchemy, and every time she opens the alchemy furnace and sees the moment the elixir is refined, she always feels a burst of excitement from the bottom of her heart.
After many days of exploration and preparation, early this morning, Qin Sheng decided to go to the Spirit Beast Forest, according to Lin Tingzhi, the more places where spirit beasts are infested, the more strange flowers and plants exist.
So Qin Sheng decided to try his luck.
Of course, he also asked Ling Yang, but the latter didn't think much about it, and agreed to accompany Qin Sheng there.
first asked Hao Ling'er to take care of the house, and then went to see her mother, and happened to meet her sister who came to visit. After learning that Qin Sheng was going out, Qin Yan was also a little uneasy, and in the end, under Qin Sheng's persuasion, he reluctantly put his mind at ease.
Finally persuaded Qin Yan, Qin Sheng took Ling Yang out with him.
The Spirit Beast Forest was a little far away from Ziyang City, and Qin Sheng and Ling Yang had traveled for a whole day before they arrived in a small town fifty miles outside the Spirit Beast Forest before dark.
This small town is actually a stronghold specially set up by the Great Shun Kingdom to monitor the spirit beast forest, in order to prevent powerful spirit beasts from running out of the spirit beast forest and causing trouble to humans.
However, Qin Sheng hadn't heard of this in more than ten years, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Coming to the town, Qin Sheng and Ling Yang found a place to rest at random, it is worth noting that the garrison of the small city seems to be extremely strict today, and when they just entered the city, they had already encountered three levels along the way.
In this regard, Qin Sheng and Ling Yang were very puzzled, but they didn't come to cause trouble, and after showing their identity certificates, they entered the city smoothly.
"Brother Lingyang, do you feel that there is something wrong with the atmosphere in this town today?" Qin Sheng asked suspiciously.
Ling Yang looked around, and then nodded: "There is indeed something wrong, I have been here before, there were not so many guards at that time, and the guards were not so strict, but it should have nothing to do with the spirit beast forest, if it is really a powerful spirit beast that escapes, it is not something that these people can resist at all." ”
At this time, Qin Sheng happened to accidentally see a small patrol team passing by not far away, and immediately wondered: "Huh, this is the sign of the royal guard, I understand, it should be a certain big man in the palace who has arrived here, no wonder the guard is so tight." ”
Ling Yang didn't know much about the royal family of Dashun Kingdom, and after listening to Qin Sheng's words, he suddenly realized: "I see, then there is nothing strange about it, anyway, it has nothing to do with us, take a good rest for a day, and tomorrow we will leave the town and walk fifty miles to the east to the periphery of the Spirit Beast Forest." ”
Qin Sheng nodded, the two stopped talking, and randomly found a place to rest.
It is said that he is resting, in fact, Qin Sheng has spent the whole night in cultivation, and now his aura has been transformed from acquired to innate, and after every cultivation, he will be very mentally sufficient, so even if he does not sleep for a few days, it will not have much impact on him, which is a great benefit of innate aura.
There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the next day, Qin Sheng and Ling Yang quickly left the town and headed for the Spirit Beast Forest, as for which big man came to the town, they didn't care.
With the guidance of Ling Yang, a well-informed martial arts powerhouse, it only took half a day for the two of them to come to the periphery of the Spirit Beast Forest.
Pointing to the dense forest in front of him, Ling Yang said, "From here, it can be regarded as the periphery of the Spirit Beast Forest. ”
"It turns out that this spirit beast forest is not much different from an ordinary forest. Qin Sheng looked at the seemingly ordinary forest in front of him and couldn't help but say.
When Ling Yang heard this, he said in a slightly serious tone: "Xiao Sheng, don't take it lightly, there are dangers everywhere in this spirit beast forest, and what is really terrifying, and even fatal to people, is often not those spirit beasts, but more potential traps that are difficult for ordinary people to find." ”
Qin Sheng didn't refute and nodded: "Brother Lingyang, don't worry, I won't be reckless." ”
Seeing that Qin Sheng did not have any contempt on his face, Ling Yang only reacted, although Qin Sheng in front of him was not very old, he had magical skills, how could a person with such skills be so careless and negligent, thinking of this, Ling Yang felt that his reminder just now was a bit too much.
The two carefully examined the packages they had brought, and then walked into the forest one after the other.
The Spirit Beast Forest is actually divided into several areas, and now they are located in the outer area, which is also the safest area relatively speaking.
The level of spirit beasts here is generally low, and there are no hidden dangers that are difficult to deal with.
The spirit fruit that Qin Sheng was looking for was not a too high-grade medicinal material, according to Lin Tingzhi's analysis, this kind of medicinal material generally grew on the periphery of the spirit beast forest, which was also Qin Sheng's goal when he came here this time.
The two of them searched as they walked, and soon crossed a small dense forest.
And when they walked out of this dense forest, they unexpectedly ran into a team of guards.
Qin Sheng was also a little surprised to see these people appear, but he soon recognized that these guards were wearing the clothes of the Royal Forbidden Army he had seen last night.
Just as Qin Sheng guessed the purpose of these people's coming, a rather familiar voice immediately drifted into Qin Sheng's ears.
