Chapter 707: The Last Days
"I know that the Gu worm is coming out of my body, once the Gu worm comes out, I will die, I hope you can bury me and the butterfly's rootless flower together, you can't sleep together in life, and you have to die in the same hole. Also, I see that your energy is good, you should be able to suppress the unicorn, it is a contract beast, once I die, it will be ownerless, if you have the ability to contract him, it is good to be a mount, if not, please place it properly, I can't imagine what it will become, according to habits, it is very likely to become a scourge in the East Wilderness, if there is really such a day, you will destroy it! The monster mad old man said with despair in his eyes.
"Why didn't you do that yourself?" The scorpion asked, puzzled.
The crazy old man was slightly stunned, not knowing the meaning of the scorpion's question.
"I mean, the beast, what if I can't handle it? You should set it up before you leave, or just kill it. Scorpion Fu explained.
"That divine beast has followed me for tens of thousands of years, fighting in the south and the north, no matter what, I won't hurt him personally, if you can't handle it, he will wait for the god king to send a messenger down! Once I die, the immortal tablet on the temple of the god king will burst, and the god king will send an envoy to the realm to collect my mount! The crazy old man said with his eyes drifting into the distance, and muttered, "I really don't want to cheapen that despicable villain of the God King!" ”
"Okay, I promise you!" The scorpion said firmly. But I began to wonder in my heart, whether I should be honest with the crazy old man, think about it, or don't make any extraneous branches, and now the crazy old man will leave his aftermath to deal with himself, including the 'rootless flower' He only needs to pull out some flowers when he buries him. Although it feels a little immoral to do this, it is for Lin Xuan's sake. Shenhuang, they can only do this.
The crazy old man smiled at the scorpion and nodded. As a gesture of gratitude, he looked up at the sun and let it shine on his face. A smile appeared at the corner of the crazy old man's mouth, and the smile gradually faded and widened on his face, and finally, his eyebrows, the corners of his eyes. His nose, every inch of his skin seemed to be smiling, smiling happily and relievedly.
After a while, the mad old man turned around and said to the scorpion, "All right, let's go!" ”
After speaking, he turned around, and after walking a few steps, the crazy old man's eyes suddenly fell on a cabbage field on the side of the scorpion, and he frowned and asked, "How can this thing be on the soil?" ”
"Huh?" The scorpion followed the mad old man's gaze and saw a thin layer of faint white on the soil of the cabbage. It is like the hoarfrost that forms on the ground in the morning of a harsh winter, and it is like the salt that precipitates from a sweaty sweatshirt in summer. I couldn't help but be curious, and looked around, it seemed that only this cabbage field was there, and I didn't see such a phenomenon in other fields.
When the scorpion was puzzled, the crazy old man had already walked to the cabbage field, only to see him take out a knife, squat down and cut some hoarfrost on the soil, put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look, and then put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, stretched out his tongue and tasted it on the tip of his tongue, and finally stood up, patted off the remaining white powder on his hand, turned back to the scorpion and said, "It can't be wrong, this is the pollen of the love flower." ”
"Love flowers? What a strange name! Except for the rootless flower, the other plants are not on the scorpion's heart, and the scorpion just shrugs its shoulders perfunctorily and says casually.
"The pollen of the love flower itself is not poisonous, it is colorless and tasteless in the water, and it is not easy to be found, but once it meets the person who eats the bluestone fruit, it will instantly become highly poisonous, and it is the kind of slow action, full of invasion of your internal organs, even if you die of poison, the doctor will not find any signs of poisoning in your body, and will only determine that you are sick and died, which is a very powerful killing weapon!" As the crazy old man spoke, he got serious, pinched his chin with his hand, pondered for a moment, and then continued thoughtfully, "It's just that there are no love flowers on this bronze mountain, where does the pollen come from?" ”
Hearing the crazy old man say this, the scorpion suddenly smelled an unusual smell, could it be that Yun Ling's sudden illness some time ago was related to this pollen? Remembering that Yun Ling once gave herself a fruit, she immediately took it out, handed it to the crazy old man, and asked, "Look at it, is this the bluestone fruit you said?" ”
"Girl, how can you have such fruit?" The crazy old man suddenly asked with wide eyes, his mind spun around, and he asked nervously, "You won't eat this fruit and drink the water mixed with the pollen of love!" “
"No, I didn't eat the fruit, but I almost ate it!" The scorpion said in a deep voice thoughtfully.
"Originally, it was impossible for people to find out that this pollen was mixed with water, but I don't know who used the pollen-mixed water to water my Chinese cabbage, and the soil of my Chinese cabbage was mixed with my special nutrient solution, and the nutrient solution met the pollen-mixed water, and it would naturally precipitate the pollen and condense, but looking at the appearance of this soil, the water mixed with pollen should have arrived a few days ago, not like a recent thing!" The crazy old man said thoughtfully.
"Of course!" The scorpion smiled bitterly, and then asked the crazy old man with a solemn face, "Then if the person who is poisoned by the love flower can be saved, how can he be saved?" ”
"Absolute love flowers, absolute love flowers, is the meaning of completely breaking off the red dust, how can it be saved? If someone really falls into this poison, they can only mourn and change! The crazy old man sighed lightly.
The scorpion frowned, his mind was full of Yun Ling's warm and lovely appearance, and there was a faint pain in his heart.
"Little girl, what's wrong with you?" The crazy old man reminded in confusion that he didn't say that he hadn't eaten the fruit just now, why did he look like he was dying.
"It's fine!" The scorpion barely pulled out a smile and said, "Let's go see your butterfly, I also want to see what the legendary 'rootless flower' looks like." ”
"Alright, let's go!" The crazy old man replied cheerfully.
After passing through one forest after another, walking through one path after another, the scorpion was finally about to touch the 'rootless flower' that he had been thinking about day and night, but he killed a Cheng biting gold halfway, and met the god of decay, Lu Tianyuan and his wife on the way. When he saw Lu Tianyuan's glance, the scorpion finally affirmed that this person was definitely his nemesis, the broom star, but the superfluous politeness did not say, the scorpion directly asked himself the question he was most concerned about, how was Yun Ling?
Lu Tianyuan drooped his eyelids, looking sad, and did not say anything. After a while, Meng Qi beside him said, "It's gone!" The voice was very soft, like a gentle breeze, and I couldn't really hear what she said without listening carefully.
Suddenly, the scorpion fell silent, and the eyes that looked at Meng Qi were extremely complicated, but for some reason, the scorpion's inference about the love flower did not say anything, but only comforted Lu Tianyuan with a few words.
After greeting each other, he could have continued to look for the cave, but at this time, the crazy old man was confused again, and wasted a great opportunity in vain, looking at the crazy old man giggling, pulling Lu Tianyuan to ask this and that, and talking to the butterfly next to him, the scorpion had to give up and wait for the next opportunity.
When Meng Qi came back this time, he changed his style of ignoring scorpions in the past, and he has always been close to the scorpion set, and even his clothes have changed from the previous ladylike style, and he has changed back to his original short skirt and long pants, and he is wearing a small cloth bag around his waist. However, at this time, the scorpion looked at Meng Qi, who had recovered to his previous appearance, how he felt awkward, and he was stunned in his heart, feeling that the Meng Qi in front of him did not have any shadow of Meng Qi except for the skin that he had encountered in the restaurant.
After waiting for another two days, the crazy old man finally sobered up again, and this time he was completely awake, because the scorpion found that the Gu worm that had been nesting in the green tendons of his arm was gone, as for where the Gu worm went, no one knew, only knew that the real Turmeric had returned, but unfortunately this return was short-lived, but I didn't know how long this short-lived could last. Huang Turmeric is about to die.
There were not many days left, and Huang Jiang couldn't wait to take the scorpion, Lu Tianyuan, and Meng Qi to the cave.
In front of the cave there was a unicorn shaped like a white horse with a spiral horn in front of its forehead, and when he saw us coming, he stood up with his tall body, roared, and then walked to Huang Jiang with a cheerful hoof, and rubbed his head against Huang Jiang's body, Huang Jiang stroked the unicorn's head with his hand, and said with a gentle face: "Old man, I'm leaving, but don't worry, I've already helped you find a new master!" As he spoke, he glanced at the scorpion and said, "Her achievements will be above mine, and you will not insult you if you follow her!" ”
"Purr-" The unicorn let out a breath of relief and shook its head in a reluctant look.
"If you don't want to, then you are free, you can go back to the Divine Domain, or stay where you want to stay, but there are two things to remember, one is not to harm human beings, otherwise I will also explain to the little girl, if you do something that harms human beings, she will help me solve you, and the other point is to avoid the God King, his strength is not something you can compete with, if you are contracted by his blood, I am afraid that you will play in this life." Huang Jiang said, sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I said that I would always be together and never give up, but unfortunately, now I have to give up on you!" ”
After speaking, he put down the hand that stroked the unicorn and walked towards the cave alone, the scorpion and the others immediately followed, but were stopped by Huang Jiang, Huang Jiang turned around and smiled at the scorpion: "Little girl, this time I am really leaving, let me and Die'er be alone for a while, okay?" I want to feel the breath of Die'er, and let Die'er feel my breath, I'm afraid that when I get to that world, I can't find her, and she doesn't know that I'm back, and when I die, you guys will come in and help me handle the funeral!
