Chapter 25: Disobedience, Death
The Eight Treasures of Atractylodes require eight kinds of medicinal materials, and there are still seven kinds of shortcoming. And things like ginseng and half-branched lotus and notoginseng are not easy to find in the first place.
Time was running out now, and she had to find them all as soon as possible and get them back to save Fifteen's life.
The forest is quiet and deep, the vines are entangled, the branches are vines, and the road is extremely difficult to walk. She forced herself to think about the habits and growth preferences of these eight medicinal herbs, and then according to these preferences, little by little, she searched on the ground, in the cracks of the rocks, and even on the cliffs.
"Purple back has been found, Poria has been found, Yanhusuo has been found, Yuanzhi has also been found, peony, ginseng, and Divine Comedy have not been found. Peony winter this place is simply impossible, can be replaced with something else... Ginseng! The most important thing is to find ginseng! ”
A gray-faced, ragged woman walked and talked in the mountains and forests, the empty mountains were silent, and the four fields were silent, and this situation was indescribably crazy.
A palm-sized gray-haired monkey was lying on the branch of a tall tree bored and lazy, Su Qianruo walked all the way, it jumped all the way, and then stared at her on the ground and touched the mud, and then sometimes it would gnaw a few times with its mouth, sometimes it laughed wildly, and sometimes it looked sad like a dead father.
Every time Su Qianruo passed by a place, he would use a dagger to carve a knife on the tree to prevent himself from getting lost. However, ginseng grows in the cold land where the peaks are high and the forests are dense, and the cold and green are accumulated, because it is extremely precious, with a head and feet, resembling a human shape and can prolong life, and even the book of the Great Dao has a detailed record.
With the qi that occurs in the east, the spirit of the earth's veins and pure essence is obtained, and the divine grass is generated, which is the top grade of medicine. In the primeval forest that covers the sky and the sun and is infested with tigers and wolves, digging ginseng is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Ginseng is hard to find, and there are many dangers, Su Qianruo walked into the depths, "Winter is coming, the beasts should all go into the cave to sleep, shouldn't I encounter any fierce beasts that will talk to me?" Walk one mile further, walk another mile, I really can't find it, it's too late, or go back and use the current medicine to decoction fifteen decoction will use it first..."
One mile ahead, further ahead, the mountain is like a giant beast lying in front, and the dark front is like a huge beast's mouth, Su Qianruo comforted himself while continuing to walk inside.
She no longer wants to owe anyone a favor, and she doesn't deliberately owe anyone a life.
She owes Shang Moyun a life, she repaid her true heart, she has a lifetime of divine sadness, her soul seems to have withered and peeled off, she is no longer the pure Su Qianruo.
Therefore, what can be repaid is repaid in this world, and no one should owe it, and no one should owe it.
Fifteen must not die in front of her. Before, it was because she was soft-hearted, but now it's because she can't afford it.
Counting it, he saved her twice, and she only saved him once at the bottom of the mountain stream, so she owes him a life in addition to not letting him die this time.
She suddenly remembered the snake that appeared suddenly and died strangely.
The most unlikely snow has also fallen, and the winter snake that can't sleep has also come out to bite, and it is actually understandable that there will be any man-eating beasts in this dense forest.
But understanding is understandable, but unacceptable!
A white-fronted tiger with a bloody mouth open, appeared in front of her silently, with a sturdy body, sharp and snow-white teeth, and hungry green eyes glowing with a faint green light in the dark old forest, and it seemed to be excited when it saw a human appearing, and its saliva dripped all the way to the ground from the outside.
There is no eye contact, no child's play, the reason why the beast is a beast is that its ferocity and nature is to prey on humans.
A huge black shadow pounced on her, and Su Qianruo clenched the dagger in her hand, the only weapon she could rely on. Not wanting to die, and not wanting to owe her life, she screamed and faced the tiger.
"Kill you, kill you, I'm going to kill you if you don't go away!"
That's just enough to give yourself a boost.
Of course, the tiger didn't understand, its sharp claws swung directly at Su Qianruo's chest, the sharp pain came, blood splashed, Su Qianruo was pressed to the ground by it, and the drooling teeth bit directly at its neck.
Su Qianruo waved the dagger indiscriminately, no matter where it was inserted, even if it bit off its neck, it would make it bleed a little.
Su Qianruo didn't know when he started to become weak and bullied, even if he couldn't beat him, he had to make the other party pay a little price.
But this change made her feel stronger.
In the chaos, I don't know where the tiger was inserted, it kept screaming in pain, and the blood sprayed Su Qianruo's face, and the hot blood sprayed into her eyes, splashing into her eyes, so hot that it closed its eyes involuntarily, and the movements of its hands were reflexively slow.
A roar sounded, and sharp teeth dug into her neck.
The tiger was excited, and suddenly paused, and a strange whistle sounded in the dense forest, like birds and beasts whining, Su Qianruo took advantage of this moment to wake up suddenly.
This is a life-or-death moment, and she is waiting for death when she closes her eyes.
Her eyes widened, and the dagger pierced the neck hair exposed by the tiger's head, and the tiger sensed the danger, and pressed Su Qianruo into the soil with his forelimbs, and pressed her until she couldn't pierce it with a weapon before stopping, and the stinky mouth of blood swirled around on her face, as if looking for a place to bite again.
Blood was gurgling from the two small holes in his neck, Su Qianruo held his breath, and did not waste his strength by shouting, and the surroundings were so quiet that he could hear the subtle sound of the leaves being swept up by the wind.
Fear crawled out from the bottom of his heart and gradually spread, Su Qianruo tried to open his eyes to the extreme, looking for the faint invisible opportunity.
The strange whistle sounded again, and the tiger shook its head and bit down on Su Qianruo's head regardless of it.
No! The dagger can't reach it!
The mountains are high and dense, the crazy tiger, Su Qianruo's gaze straightened for a moment.
She was actually scared.
But she knew that at this time, no one could save her.
Then it becomes meaningless to be afraid.
"Fifteen, I'm sorry! I owe you my life, and I will pay it back in the next life! ”
The heart paused again, and the name that was pressed on his heart also burst out of his throat, "Mo Yun... I hate you! Can... I still love you! ”
Su Qianruo closed her eyes in despair, not wanting to see the miserable appearance of her head being gnawed off and falling to the side.
"Yes... Sorry! I owe you my life... Under... Give it back for the rest of your life! ”
"I hate you... Can... I still love you! ”
A rough male voice suddenly sounded, and he learned the two sentences Su Qianruo said like a babbling child.
Roar... He roared in the sky, stretched out his hands and grabbed the tiger's tail handle, picked up its entire body, and threw it out like a horsewhip.
"Disobedient, die!" (To be continued.) )
