Chapter 52: Under the Begonia Tree
"What is that?" Nangong Mingjing is not familiar with medicine, so naturally he has never heard of it.
Tianlan explained: "The dew of Tiantang is the dew of Tianxin Begonia. Tianxin Begonia is a kind of blue begonia flower, itself has no fragrance, but the dew condensed on its flowers and leaves has a strange fragrance, has the miraculous effect of removing poison and reducing swelling, and strengthens the body, called Tiantang dew! This kind of dew is convenient for preserving medicinal properties when refining herbs, and many nobles will specially preserve this dew to boil medicine, and some extravagant ones are also used to make tea. "Although there is a miraculous effect, but the effect is not obvious, ordinary people still use ordinary water, some home remedies will require this kind of dew, and some strict alchemists will not use Tiantang dew.
"Rest assured, the dew is easy to collect, has a long shelf life, and is easy to get your hands on. Well, Ming Qing's predecessors hurt their nerves, so it is not appropriate to use fierce medicine, it is better to use this dew to slowly warm up!" Nangong Mingjing nodded again and again, taking his words to heart.
Xiaotang watched their conversation from the sidelines, and a warm smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Begonia Flower ...... Ten years ago, it was during the season when the begonia petals were flying that she saw Tianlan for the first time...... That year's begonia flowers were the most beautiful she had ever seen. Pale pink petals float across the sky, and the warm colors are in the eyes......
He stood under one of the largest begonia trees, his long black hair draped over his shoulders, with his back to her, staring at the flying begonia flowers. The weak begonia petals fell on his shoulder, and the flowers were speechless, and the small figure in the sea of flowers seemed to fill the blank of the begonias, making people feel so lonely and beautiful.
It was the first time she saw him, the first time she heard his voice, the first time she smelled him, and the first time she had an indescribable feeling. Even if she didn't understand what it was at the time, in the past ten years, she gradually understood, or perhaps, only partially.
Under the begonia tree, among the begonia flowers, that stunning glance is the most unforgettable picture of her life. And her name Xiaotang has also become her most important name.
When the memories gradually faded away, Xiaotang looked at Tianlan's broad shoulders now, no longer the appearance of childhood, and his heart was filled with a faint joy. Begonia flowers became her favorite. Even Tianlan didn't know that she secretly hid a piece of begonia petals that year, pressed them, dried them, made them into specimens, and inlaid them in glass as a necklace. This begonia necklace is still kept in the deepest part of the storage ring, and she keeps it well.
Begonia Flower ...... Begonia Flower ...... Every mention of begonia flowers always evokes her memories.
Perhaps, as early as ten years ago, she had already branded his shadow in her heart, who knows?
"Xiaotang, what do you want? so distracted?" Tianlan couldn't help but smile when she saw her staring at him blankly, wandering out of the world.
"Ahh......h Although he knew that Tianlan didn't have mind reading skills, he still felt that he could see through his thoughts.
"I look at her! she was so frightened by the carrion corpse that she can't relax now!" Ye Yi said cool words with his hands in his arms, the cave was dim, and he didn't see Xiaotang blushing.
Xiaotang glared at him fiercely, and shot back unceremoniously: "I don't know who was so scared just now that his feet were weak, and he was screaming." ”
"How can I have it, you don't talk nonsense!" Ye Yi waved his fists and deliberately made a vicious appearance, which was really fierce.
"Even if there is, that person must be Nangong Kid. Ye Yi grabbed Nangong Kui and forced him to ask, "Isn't that right?"
Nangong Kui nodded with a bitter face, what else could he do if he didn't nod?
Xiaotang snorted and ignored him. Nangong Mingjing saw them arguing, his mood relaxed, and said, "Sure enough, it's still a child! haha!" As soon as these words came out, he was met with the white eyes of Xiaotang and Ye Yi at the same time, and he had to touch his nose with a wry smile.
Tianlan is more mature in mind, so naturally he will not participate in their verbal war, and said to Nangong Mingjing: "It's not a way for us to stay here all the time. You have to get out. ”
When Nangong Mingjing saw him talking about business, he put away his smile and said seriously: "It's true." This time we have a clear goal, which is the channel on the left. Deal with it carefully this time, the rotting corpse is not too powerful, and it should be able to pass through safely. When Mingqing woke up and everyone was almost rested, we set off. ”
There was no objection, and time was spent in silence.
Soon, everyone was fully prepared, and Nangong Mingjing took responsibility and reiterated again: "This time our goal is the passage on the left, for the purpose of safe passage, everyone must not fight." I am the vanguard, Zhao Zhan, Yang Mo, after the two of you are broken, everyone be careful with your feet, don't be entangled by the outstretched hands. Trying to cut off their heads when dealing with carrion is their weakness, and they can't die otherwise!
The crowd replied, "Remember!"
Nangong Mingjing smiled with satisfaction, turned around and kicked the stone blocking the entrance of the cave away. There were no slogans, no mobilization, but everyone couldn't help but start to boil with enthusiasm, and kept a relatively neat line to march towards the left passage.
The road that should have been full of danger was not as dangerous as imagined. With Nangong Mingjing, a six-star martial artist, opening the way, everyone traveled very quickly! As for Tianlan, it was even more relaxed, the four of them were surrounded by everyone in the middle, as if it was specially arranged, and it was impossible for the carrion corpses on the periphery to enter. His wind system spell is very easy to use, known for his speed, as long as there is an eyeless carrion corpse who dares to reach out from the ground to probe, he must be fed with the wind blade as soon as possible!
Just by paying attention to his feet, he can still handle it. In this way, everyone can concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of them, and the speed of progress is greatly increased.
Except for the carrion insects that accompanied the carrion corpses caused them a little trouble, the road was relatively safe. Fire is ineffective against carrion, but it is a natural enemy against carrion. Nangong Mingjing burned over, and the carrion insects fled to death, although it attracted more carrion, but it was finally solved!
As I walked, suddenly there were fewer carrions.
This part of the road is like a corpse barrier, and there is not a single enemy further on. I don't know if it's to safety, or if there's a bigger crisis lurking. Everyone did not dare to take it lightly and moved forward cautiously.
After walking for a while, Tianlan's ears moved, and he said, "Wait a minute! After saying this, everyone stopped and listened, but they found nothing.
Tianlan's sense of hearing is sensitive, and when it quiets down, the voice becomes more obvious, whining, like a woman's low sob.
He led the crowd towards the source of the sound, and after walking for about a stick of incense, the low sobbing became more and more pronounced, and everyone could hear it. To tell the truth, when there is a woman's sobbing sound suddenly in such a place, everyone will feel terrified, and it is not bad to run away without turning around. Fortunately, most of the people here are firm-minded and bold, so they dare to go over like this.
Of course, there are also cowards, such as Nangong Kui, he didn't want to go over even if he was killed.
"Are you going by yourself, or do you want me to knock you unconscious?" In the end, Ye Yi threatened fiercely, and Nangong Kui reluctantly gave in, and the back half of the road almost dragged the corner of Nangong Mingjing's clothes and slid over.
