Chapter 736: The Reclusive Old Lady

After thinking about this, Guan Tongshu quickly changed her mind. After everything was in a hurry, I headed in another direction.

When the sun just came out, the weather was still cool, and soon after the morning, under the sun's irradiation, there were not many plants in the mountainous areas of northern Beijing, under the sun's irradiation, the stones on the ground absorbed enough heat, although Guan Tongshu was wearing thick boots, but stepping on this stone, he still felt the heat unbearable.

Guan Tongshu's original physique was not very good, plus there were injuries on his feet, and the speed of progress was not too fast at this time, and the soldiers below were very worried when they saw this, and said to Guan Tongshu whether to slow down, but Guan Tongshu shook his head.

"It's okay, you continue to lead the way in front, the palace is just a little tired, and the body is fine, so it's better to find this blood lotus quickly, and it's important to treat the emperor."

Guan Tongshu's body was already extremely tired, but the words she said were still so strong, although her body was about to be unable to support it, even this tone could not be concealed, full of tiredness, Guan Tongshu stretched out her sleeve and wiped a handful of sweat, and wiped her eyes, the sweat around her suddenly shook her head, and she felt that her spirit had recovered a little, and the sword in her hand was regarded as a crutch, generally supporting herself to continue to move forward.

"Don't stop, don't stop, continue to follow this stream all the way up, this blood lotus must grow in a place with abundant water sources, only if you find this blood lotus, can you let the emperor take this minute as soon as possible, and when the emperor wakes up, you are all heroes."

Guan Tongshu noticed that the soldier in front of her seemed to be deliberately slowing down, as if she was about to settle her speed, Guan Tongshu took a deep breath at this time, but she asked the soldier, and the soldier was helpless when he heard this, so he could only speed up his pace according to Guan Tongshu's request.

Guan Tongshu walked and walked, only feeling dizzy, under the sun, even in the mountains, it was unbearable to feel the heat, Guan Tongshu walked forward with difficulty, and there was a faint sense of pain on his feet, which made him frown.

"Queen Mother, there seems to be a house in front of it, and it looks like it is inhabited."

The soldiers below came to report to Guan Tongshu at this time, Guan Tongshu stood in place and shook her head slightly, squinted her eyes and saw that there was a flat place in front of her, and she saw a house between the shadows and the moon, the house looked like it had been very old, but there were some fences around it, and she vaguely seemed to see that it should have raised some livestock.

"Queen Mother, you look very weak now, why don't we go to the house in front of you to rest for a while, beg for saliva to replenish our strength, so that we can hurry faster."

The soldier said to Guan Tongshu, Guan Tongshu subconsciously wanted to refuse when she heard this, she didn't want to delay for a second, but at this moment, she felt the world spinning, and the next second she fell to the ground, when she opened her eyes again and woke up, she found that she seemed to be lying on a bed.

"Where is this?"

Guan Tongshu was startled, struggling to sit up, but the dizziness in her head made it difficult for her to sit up straight for a while, at this time an old lady walked in, and the old lady also held a bowl of steaming soup in her hand, Guan Tongshu subconsciously frowned, supported her body, and heard the sound of conversation faintly outside, it should be her with those soldiers. I love eBooks

Thinking of this, Guan Tongshu settled down a little, raised his head and saw that the old lady in front of him had a kind face, and she didn't look like a bad person, so he was a little relieved.

"Don't move around, you fainted just now, I got you some refreshing soup, you can probably get better after drinking these soups, even if you have to rush, you have to combine work and rest, you are generally in a hurry, and you will only hurt your body in the end."

Although the old lady's tone sounded very gentle, but there was a feeling of seeing through everything, Guan Tongshu took the soup, her face was full of gratitude, it was not easy for someone to live in this mountain.

"Excuse me, where am I now, old man, I have to hurry after drinking this bowl of soup, I don't dare to delay this matter."

Guan Tongshu drank the steaming bowl of soup in her hand, which really made her recover a lot of strength in an instant, but with this matter in her heart, how could she feel at ease?

The expression on the old lady's face remained unchanged when she heard this, but she just took a small fan of her own from the side, embroidering it stitch by stitch, Guan Tongshu was a little surprised, this old lady is not young, her eyes are still so good, and she can still see this embroidery needle clearly.

"Girl, if I didn't guess wrong, you should have come to this mountain area to look for the blood lotus, this flower is not so easy to find."

The old lady opened her mouth with a flat expression on her face, although she used a question sentence, but her tone was so affirmative, Guan Tongshu's hands holding him froze instantly, she raised her head and looked at the old woman in front of her, the old woman had a kind face, she didn't look malicious, and although her face was full of wrinkles, she did look extraordinarily wise, it seemed that no one had come here to look for this blood lotus.

"It seems that the old man, you know a lot about this blood lotus, if you know something, can you tell me in detail, I want this blood lotus is very anxious."

Guan Tongshu looked very anxious at this time, but the old man laughed out loud when he heard this, as if he had heard something funny.

"Who is looking for this blood lotus who has no use? The effect of this blood lotus is indeed very significant, if a person who has lost too much blood drinks the decoction boiled by this blood lotus, he can quickly replenish the blood, and he can also recover his body as soon as possible, just want to find this blood lotus, the conditions are very harsh, you must have a very pious heart, not everyone can see this blood lotus. ”

The old lady's tone was very gentle, and the smile on her face was also very gentle, Guan Tongshu put down the bowl of awakening soup in her hand when she heard this, the old lady's face looked extremely wise, and it seemed that she did know the origin of this blood lotus very well.

"Old lady, don't hide it, my beloved has been stabbed several times in order to save me, and the blood is flowing, the imperial doctor has already said that he has lost too much blood, and I want to find this blood lotus within three days and bring it back to make a decoction, so that he can come to his senses, old lady, if you know more about the situation, please tell me, I can give you any reward you want."

Guan Tongshu's tone was very urgent at this time, and she pleaded bitterly with the old lady, the old lady smiled slightly when she heard this, and the expression on her face was careless, since she chose to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, she naturally had no interest in these money or anything for a long time, but she looked at this girl with such a pious expression on her face, and her eyebrows were beautiful, and her eyes looked so kind, I believe that she was not a bad person.
