Chapter 492: Mysterious Old Man
"Hehe, young man, don't worry, I'm already old, old man, it's no longer suitable for me, the house is a bit messy, you can sit at will!"
As if he had guessed what Zhu Shuai was thinking, the old man said indifferently while stirring the medicinal materials in the pot, and sprinkled some ingredients into the pot from time to time.
With the old man's movements, soon, a rich fragrance emanated from the pot, and the fragrance fascinated Zhu Shuai and Yue Meng, and even the soul power began to tremble.
This old man must also have a deep rhyme with the way of charms, and the precious materials that are usually used to refine charms can be used to invigorate the spirit after his careful preparation, and a simple boil can play a role in invigorating the spirit.
Come to think of it, if he is asked to refine the charm, then the finished product must be a high-grade charm.
At the old man's words, Zhu Shuai and Nami sat down on a straw mat on the ground and watched the old man's movements quietly.
The old man was not flustered, and the soup spoon in his hand was slowly stirring.
After about ten minutes, the old man put away the soup spoon and took out two bowls.
After filling two large bowls of medicinal soup, the old man put it in front of Zhu Shuai and Nami.
"The conditions of the humble house are limited, there is nothing good to entertain the guests from afar, you can drink this soup, rest assured, this soup is absolutely not harmful to you. ”
The old man said, trembling, and returned to the earthen stove.
Zhu Shuai and Yue Meng glanced at each other, and no one dared to drink the soup in the bowl easily.
From entering the thatched hut to the present, the old man has said less than five sentences, Zhu Shuai and Yue Meng have not yet figured out what the identity of this old man is, and they dare not drink this soup indiscriminately.
However, the old man ignored the two of them, but returned to the earthen stove, took out a bowl by himself, filled it with soup, and began to drink.
"Senior, take the liberty of asking the name of the senior, and why the seniors live here. ”
The old man's profound appearance made Zhu Shuai couldn't help but ask.
"Good soup! Good soup! Sure enough, this meal is still accompanied by someone to accompany it, but unfortunately, over the years, there are fewer and fewer people coming here!"
After drinking two bowls of soup in one go, the old man turned around.
When he saw the immovable medicinal soup in front of Zhu Shuai and Yuemeng, the corners of his mouth couldn't help laughing.
"It's okay not to drink it, it's just a pity that those precious medicinal herbs are gone!"
The old man continued.
Seeing that the old man seemed a little sad, Zhu Shuai slowly stretched out his palm and picked up the bowl on the ground.
With Zhu Shuai's movements, Yuemeng also picked up the bowl, but was secretly nodded by Zhu Shuai.
The identity of the old man is still unknown, so the two of them can't drink this medicinal soup at the same time, and they must leave a way back for themselves when they walk outside and do anything.
"Haha, it's really a good soup, the seniors are really old and strong, this craft makes the juniors salivate!"
Drinking the medicinal soup in the bowl in one gulp, Zhu Shuai looked unpleasant, took the decoction in Yuemeng's hand, drank it all, and then wiped his mouth and spoke.
"Haha, okay, how long has it been since I've heard anyone compliment me?"
"Young man, there is a lot of danger here, are you two here looking for something?"
Seeing Zhu Shuai finish drinking the medicinal soup in the bowl, the old man spoke.
"Senior, to tell you the truth, we came here to try our luck and see if we can find a seven-day vine so that we can go back and save my family's life. ”
"Senior, you've lived here for a long time, do you know anything about the Seven Vines?"
Seeing that the old man finally returned to the topic, Zhu Shuai hurriedly said.
"Seven Yao vines?"
"This Mirror Immortal Valley, medicinal herbs are all over the place, inexhaustible, as long as there is a coincidence, you will be lucky enough to meet it, okay, the time is not early, the old man should also rest, I will not send you!"
The old man stroked his beard and gave the order to evict the guests.
He Yuemeng snuggled up and stood up, Zhu Shuai's heart was full of doubts.
From the moment he entered the door, the old man said a few simple words, and then drank two bowls of soup by himself, and did nothing else.
Why did the old man act like this?
However, judging from the old man's words, it seems that there really is the existence of the Seven Yao Vines in this Mirror Immortal Valley.
"Sorry, I'm sorry to disturb my seniors, let's leave!"
Pulling Yuemeng, the two slowly walked out of the thatched house, and walked far away, and the old man didn't speak again.
The sky had completely darkened, coupled with the dense fog around them, the front was gray, and in this case, Zhu Shuai and Yuemeng did not dare to continue to move forward.
After finding a relatively flat place, Zhu Shuai took out the tent and other things from the ring and began to build it.
Not long after, Zhu Shuai set up a tent for temporary accommodation and prepared to cope with the night here.
Afraid that there were other demonic beasts around, Zhu Shuai let Yuemeng rest in the tent first, while he stayed outside the tent, carefully guarded.
The night is getting later and later, and the sounds of insects and birds around are slowly becoming denser.
Zhu Shuai was lying on the grass outside the tent, unable to figure out what the old man meant.
If you drove yourself away at once, why did you drink the medicinal soup yourself?
What is the effect of that medicinal soup, what is the effect on yourself, why do you feel no more now?
Zhu Shuai was lying on the grass, thinking nonsense, I don't know how long it took, Zhu Shuai suddenly felt that in his body, I don't know when, there was a warm current!
This warm current, completely out of his control, swam wildly in Zhu Shuai's body.
It's not good, this warm current should be caused by drinking the decoction before!
Zhu Shuai was shocked in his heart, he couldn't control the trajectory of the warm current, if this warm current attacked some important parts of his body, wouldn't he have to eat words?
Zhu Shuai hurriedly started cross-legged, formed a handprint, and prepared to mobilize the soul power in the sea of souls to suppress this warm current.
However, without waiting for Zhu Shuai to make a move, this warm current ran all the way to Zhu Shuai's eyes.
Swish!
Almost in the blink of an eye, before Zhu Shuai could react, the warm current suddenly poured into Zhu Shuai's eyes.
Yes!
Zhu Shuai exclaimed, and his palm quickly covered his eyes.
Don't be blind, don't be blind, if you are blind, how can you find your mother, how can you find Jing'er!
Zhu Shuai's heart kept silently, and Yuemeng, who heard Zhu Shuai's shouting, also woke up from her sleep and ran out of the tent in a hurry.
"Zhu Shuai, what's wrong with you?"
Coming to Zhu Shuai's side, Yuemeng held Zhu Shuai's shoulders and asked anxiously.
"My eyes, the medicinal soup I drank in that thatched hut before, turned into a warm current in my body and rushed into my eyes!"
Zhu Shuai quickly explained, feeling that there was nothing unusual in his eyes, and then slowly put his palm down.
When he opened his eyes, Zhu Shuai looked around carefully, fortunately, he could still see it.
Hey, no, why is the surrounding scenery so clear?
I clearly remember that it was cloudy and gray here before, and it was because of the poor vision that I and Yuemeng decided to stay here for a night.
But now, not only can I see everything around me clearly, but also, very clearly?
Zhu Shuai's envoy looked up at the sky, and sure enough, the dense fog had long been gone, and Zhu Shuai could clearly see a silver moon in the sky above, as well as the stars like flower plates.
What's going on? Why has your vision changed so well, or is it?
"Yuemeng, can you see the stars in the sky?"
Zhu Shuai gently nodded Yuemeng's arm and asked.
"Stars? There are no stars? There is a fog everywhere, I can barely see your face, how can I see any stars. ”
Yue Meng glanced around blankly and spoke.
Sure enough, there is no change in the environment here, but my current eyesight has improved.
The medicinal soup that the old gentleman let himself drink before was to make his vision better.
However, what is the old gentleman doing this for?
Also, when I was leaving, what was the meaning of the old gentleman's words?
Serendipity, under what circumstances can you encounter this coincidence, isn't it?
Zhu Shuai suddenly raised his head, and under Yue Meng's surprised expression, he began to carefully probe the stars in the sky.
The night sky is incomparably bright, densely packed with stars, crowded together, releasing their own faint light.
Zhu Shuai carefully searched in the sky, and finally, directly above him, Zhu Shuai found some clues.
Here, there are seven stars of brightness, obviously higher than the surrounding stars, it is particularly prominent, Zhu Shuai stretched out his palm, the position of the seven stars together, and was pleasantly surprised to find that this shape is very similar to the seven vines that I have seen before!
Haha, it turns out that the old gentleman reminded himself through this method!
"Yuemeng, I know where the Seven Yao Vines are!"
Thinking about all this, Zhu Shuai excitedly hugged Yuemeng and said happily.
"Really? what's going on?"
was picked up inexplicably, Yue Meng looked dazed, but seeing Zhu Shuai so excited, Yue Meng's heart also began to be happy.
"The old gentleman before has already told us where the seven yao vines are, come with me!"
put Yuemeng down, Zhu Shuai took Yuemeng's little hand and swept towards the sky.
Coming directly below the seven stars, Zhu Shuai stopped and leaned over to look into the mountains.
Sure enough, the dense fog in the mountains could not block his vision, all the plants in it were in full view, and what was even more peculiar was that Zhu Shuai could see their colors.
At this time, Zhu Shuai was even more excited, and carefully searched in the mountains.
Soon, a purple vine was imprinted into Zhu Shuai's eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Shuai's mouth.
