Chapter 9: Illusions
In a trance, she came to the foot of a mountain without much greenery, there was a small wooden house, there was a wisp of cooking smoke rising above the wooden house, Xuanzhu's eyes were moist, she pushed open the door of the house and walked in, sure enough, a beautiful woman of forty-three or four years old was busy in front of the stove, her tears could not be held back any longer, she rushed over at once, hugged the woman and cried heartbroken.
"Ye'er, what's wrong with you?" The woman lovingly stroked Xuanzhu's head and asked.
"Mom, it's me, I'm back." Xuanzhu choked up, she hadn't experienced such warmth for a long time.
"You kid, come back, come back, what are you crying about? But what grievances did you suffer in the city? Mom asked worriedly, wiping her tears in distress.
"No, no." Xuanzhu cried even more fiercely, how could she be wronged in the city? She was wronged in another world.
"It's good if you don't, come, see what Mom has done? This is your favorite braised chicken nuggets. Xuanzhu saw her mother lift the lid of the pot, blew the heat inside, and pulled it for a while before she took out a piece of fragrant chicken wings and put it to her mouth and said, "Taste it, see what flavor is missing?" ”
Xuanzhu took a bite of the chicken wing with tears in her eyes, and suddenly, the familiar fragrance spread between her lips and teeth, and Xuanzhu's tears finally flowed again.
"Wife, I'm back." At this moment, Xuanzhu heard a mellow male voice coming, her body trembled suddenly, looked out of the house, and didn't even notice that the chicken wings had fallen, only to hear the door of the house, a middle-aged man of forty-five or sixteen years old walked in, Xuanzhu had a sour nose, and choked up: "Dad!" ”
The man paused, saw Xuanzhu, and immediately strode over, nodded on her head in disgust, and said, "Dead girl, do you still know to come back?" Liu Ya's girl is almost dying. ”
"Dad, you say bad things about me again, and I don't know who whispers in my ear every day: 'Your sister has been gone for more than two months, why hasn't she come back?' As soon as the words fell, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl walked in, this little girl, with two pigtails, was extraordinarily cute, it was her little sister Liu Ya.
Looking at Liu Ya's innocent smiling face, Xuan Zhu cried with joy, she trembled her hands, wanting to pull her pigtails as usual, however, just when her hand was only an inch away from Liu Ya, Liu Ya disintegrated into countless fluorescent dots in front of her like a dissipated picture on TV.
"No!" Xuanzhu roared, rushed over and frantically collected those broken dots, but the broken dots disappeared between her fingers like a little quicksand, she looked at her parents in disbelief, but found that they and the small wooden house in front of her, all turned into broken stars, disappeared in front of her eyes, she felt a pain in her heart, and shouted loudly: "No! Don't! ”
"Xuanzhu woke up" At this moment, there was a loud shout from the depths of her mind, which was like thunder, and exploded in her mind, her whole body was agitated, and she was completely awake, looking at the worried look of Candle Jiuyin in front of her, she asked blankly: "What's wrong with me?" ”
"You have been devoured by the demons in your heart, if you don't deal with it in time, I'm afraid it will affect your cultivation in the future." Candle Jiuyin sighed and said.
"The demons are backlashing? How could this be" Xuanzhu was shocked, and hurriedly asked, could it be that everything just now was an illusion caused by the backlash of her demons?
"That's because you've broken through too fast recently, and your heart is unstable, and now my injuries haven't healed, so I can only help you suppress it for a month, and after a month, if you can't solve the problem of the demon backlash, I'm afraid that you will endlessly fall into the illusion until you die of exhaustion." Candle Jiuyin prudent way.
"So what to do?" Xuanzhu couldn't help but ask urgently, it was life-threatening, it was a big deal, and she had to be cautious.
"For today's plan, there is only one way, and that is to use the Steady Rank Pill to stabilize your heart level." Candle Nine groaned gloomily.
"Steady Rank Pill?" Xuanzhu asked, she thought about it, and made sure that she hadn't heard of this elixir, so she asked again, "Where is the Stable Rank Pill?" ”
"I don't know about this, you better go out and inquire." Candle Jiuyin shook his head and said.
Xuanzhu found herself lying in the Najie Monument, she rubbed her somewhat stuffy head, sat up and said, "How long have I been trapped in the illusion?" ”
"Not long, a month." Candle Nine said lightly.
"What? One month? Isn't that long? Xuanzhu asked in disbelief, she was in that illusion, but only for a moment.
"What's that? I slept casually, and it took longer than that. Candle Jiuyin didn't care about the Dao, as if this was the most sparse and ordinary thing for it.
"Okay, don't talk about that, I'll go out and ask about the Stable Rank Pill." Xuanzhu remembered the unstable heart in his heart, how could he care about how long he slept.
"Then you'd better ask." Candle Jiuyin also knew that this matter was very important to Xuanzhu, so he urged.
Xuanzhu came out and asked several people in a row, but she didn't ask about the Stable Rank Pill, and she couldn't help but feel a little depressed, she didn't give up and went to every Dan Ware shop to take a look, knowing that no one had really heard of this kind of pill, so she returned to the Najie Monument unhappily.
"How's it going, did you ask?" Candle Jiuyin leaned over and asked.
"Nope." Xuanzhu shook her head in frustration and was silent for a while before she raised her head and asked, "Is there no other way?" ”
"This" Candle Jiuyin was also silent, and after a long time, its eyes lit up and said, "If you look at the animal skin booklet, maybe there will be some clues." ”
When Xuanzhu heard it, he said secretly, it made sense, and he hurriedly took out the animal skin booklet and looked at it, only then did he know that although the animal skin booklet is not big, there are dozens of Dan recipes recorded in the Dan Ware Chapter, each of which has a detailed record of the refining method, and Xuanzhu who looked directly was stunned, this is only the first page, if the strength is enough in the future, how many things will appear in front of her eyes when she opens the second page? But even so, this page also benefited her extraordinarily, only to see the content on the page, one appeared, and then flew into her mind and disappeared, and then another appeared, each of which was deeply imprinted in her mind without memory, until dozens of kinds appeared, and then they no longer appeared, and the other articles were the same, only one page was opened, but she wrote down a lot of things.
The Stable Rank Pill is a three-grade pill, if you want to refine it, you must have the Nine-Leaf Colorful Flower and the Beast Pill of the Third-Order Original Beast, the Nine-Leaf Seven-Colored Flower is a three-grade medicinal herb, it grows one leaf a year, and the color of each leaf is different, until it grows full of nine leaves, the most important thing is that her growth conditions are extremely harsh, and she needs to be nourished by a dragon vein to grow, but as far as Xuanzhu knows, there is no dragon vein here.
The beast pill of the third-order original beast, although it is more reliable than the nine-leaf colorful flower, but it is not easy to obtain, according to the beast chapter, the original beast is divided into one to seven orders, respectively, corresponding to the human cultivator, the monk, the king, the emperor, and the cultivator, the third-order beast, which is equivalent to the strength of the cultivator, with the current strength of Xuanzhu, there is really no way to obtain it by oneself.
What made her feel most desperate was that she had no way to refine this elixir, because refining the elixir required her fire attribute courage, but she was a water attribute courage, and it was even more impossible to invite someone to refine it, not to mention how much spar it would cost, and she couldn't move the only medicine master in the Donghao Kingdom! Who called the family from the Zhuo Yu family?
