The one hundred and seventy-first episode of Moyu Nine Lotus
Walking in Guilin Mansion, people swim in the painting.
This sentence accurately describes the beauty of Guilin's scenery, which is picturesque, like a fairyland on earth, with scenery everywhere. Guilin's mountains and rivers reflect each other, the mountains are next to the water, the water is next to the mountains, the mountainside is wrapped in lake mist, and the water surface reflects the mountain shadows and peaks. In addition, some fishermen are boating on the water, which adds a kind of elegance to this scene.
Like this kind of beautiful scenery, literati and rivers and lakes are very fond of coming, the former come here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, vassal elegance, and the latter come here to calm down and practice well.
After the convoy of Sword Casting Villa arrived at Guilin Mansion, the carriage was temporarily stored in a century-old shop, leaving some people to guard it, and the rest of the people moved forward on foot, deep into the picturesque landscape of the landscape. The scenery around the Sword Forge Villa is actually very good, but compared to the scenery here, it is still very different, and it is much inferior.
Zhao Zheng refused to go directly to the Taishan faction, but had to get here first, and then go around to reach the Taishan faction. Jian Nu didn't understand this at first, and he was quite complaining, but after arriving here, he no longer blamed Zhao Zheng, because the scenery here is so beautiful, no matter what reason, it's worth a trip here.
Zhao Zheng came here for two purposes, one is to accompany his sister around and talk about filial piety, and the other is to come here to catch a treasure that can be easily obtained.
This treasure is a kind of plant, called "Moyu Nine Lotus Seeds", this plant only grows at the bottom of the water, the growth cycle is long, the appearance is like a lotus, and it can grow no more than nine black lotus seeds after it grows up. The black lotus seeds grown from the Moyu Nine Seed Lotus are antidote medicines, which can relieve all kinds of poisons, and they can take effect directly. If you ask a doctor to refine a panacea. The effect of the medicine will become stronger.
The rivers and lakes are treacherous. Often walking on the rivers and lakes, maybe one day will fall into the way of others, and it is beneficial and harmless to always have some antidote drugs on your body. An antidote like Black Lotus Seed is really the best choice in case you need it.
There is more than one place where the Moyu Nine Seed Lotus grows, but most of them grow in some dangerous places, and they are far away, so it is difficult to get. Only one of the growing sites here in Guilin Mansion is relatively safe and just along the way. Within reach.
Guilin's Moyu Nine Lotus grows at the bottom of a lake called "Bloodstained Lake", which is inhabited by a large eater called "Ghost Head Fish", which will take the initiative to attack and eat people if they fall into the lake. Because of the fact that ghost head fish often ate people in the past, the surface of the lake was stained red with blood several times, so this lake got the murderous name of blood-stained lake.
The ghost head fish is very dangerous for ordinary people, but it is not a threat to the Sixfold Heavenly Martial Artists, and Zhao Zheng alone can easily deal with it.
Zhao Zhengming secretly added fuel to the fire, and led the mighty team all the way to the bloodstained lake. When walking on the road. He talked to his sister as much as he could, and relieved her worries. The sister and brother get along very well.
After a long day of walking, the team finally reached the vicinity of the Bloodstained Lake. At this time, the sky was already dark, the night was low, and the mountains and rivers sank into darkness, without the beauty of the day, but a little more gloomy and solemn.
There were a number of fishermen's houses on both sides of the lake, and the sword slave announced that he would rest here for the night, paid the local fishermen, and rented more than a dozen houses. Before moving in, the sword slave first ordered people to carefully inspect more than a dozen houses to confirm that there was no danger before letting everyone move in.
When eating, the team was also very cautious, and did not eat the food of the fishermen's homes, but ate their own dry food. It's a dangerous trip, and it's always right to be careful.
After eating, Zhao Zheng summoned a local fisherman and asked about the blood-stained lake. The fishermen confessed one by one, claiming that there were ghost fish in the lake, and it was best not to approach. Zhao Zheng took out the map that had been prepared a long time ago and asked the fishermen to look at it, so as not to have any discrepancies between the actual terrain and the map. The fishermen double-checked the map and claimed that the map was correct and that it was the same as the local terrain.
Zhao Zheng relieved himself at this time, gave the fisherman a piece of broken silver as a reward, and then got up and found the sword slave, and invited the sword slave to accompany him to pick the black jade nine lotus hidden deep at the bottom of the blood-stained lake. The reason why he wanted to bring the sword slave was not because he was afraid of the ghost head fish at the bottom of the lake, but because he was afraid of being attacked by other warriors when he was walking alone.
After hearing this, the sword slave wondered, "How do you know that there will be a heavenly treasure like the Moyu Nine Seed Lotus under the blood-stained lake?" ”
"When I was enjoying the scenery on the road, I happened to hear a local passer-by talk about it. Someone in the local area saw the Moyu Jiuzi Lotus while diving at the bottom of the blood-stained lake, but because they encountered a ghost head fish that lived on the bottom of the water, they didn't dare to pick it and hurriedly swam up. The local fishermen are not martial artists, even if they know that there are treasures at the bottom of the lake, they don't dare to go down rashly, and now the Moyu Jiuzilian should still be at the bottom of the lake. Although the ghost head fish is fierce, with the strength of my predecessors and me, it should be able to deal with it easily, and there will be no danger. Since we've all been here, and the bloodstained lake isn't far away, why don't we get our hands on this treasure? Zhao Zheng explained calmly. This is really a good explanation, the Wuchong Heavenly Martial People have the ability to "clear ears and clear eyes", and after the meritorious ears, they can hear the sound of a radius of several miles, no matter what words they hear, it is not strange. In the future, when he did those prophetic things, he could infer that he had heard them.
"Can hearsay be reliable?"
"If you want to know your confidants, you need to listen to what you say. Many times, the more people secretly say things behind their backs, the more true they are. Just like when Gong Shen was cheating a few days ago, it was by relying on the casual conversations we heard that we knew the true grade of his phantom sword in advance, and then we saw through his tricks. Otherwise, you may have fallen for him. ”
"That being said, but now it's getting late, and the two of us can't sleep well, but because of the conversation between two passers-by, we ran to the bottom of the lake to hunt for treasure, which is a bit too nonsense." The sword slave frowned.
"Moyu Nine Seed Lotus can cure all kinds of poisons, it is a rare medicinal material in the world, so what's the harm in messing around for this kind of treasure once." Zhao Zheng persuaded him.
Seeing that Zhao Zheng swore an oath, coupled with the temptation of the baby, the sword slave finally agreed to the matter.
It is not absolutely safe to have a sword slave alone, so Zhao Zheng found Zihuan overnight and brought this nominal bodyguard with him. With the three of them together, and counting some secret sentinels hidden in the dark, as long as you don't meet first-class masters, you will definitely be fine.
The three of them all have the ability to see at night, and they don't need to bring any lighting tools, and under the leadership of Zhao Zheng, they fly to the blood-stained lake. The three of them walked quickly, and it didn't take long to reach the lake.
In order to identify the terrain, Zhao Zheng tried his best to provoke, jumped more than six feet high, and tapped the foot of the other foot with one foot in mid-air, taking off twice and going to the next level. He looked down from a high position, saw the huge lake clearly, and according to the ups and downs of the lake, he stared at the direction where the Moyu Nine Lotus was located.
After landing, he pointed to the northeast with his hand, led the other two to continue forward, stepping on the surface of the lake with light skills, and swept swiftly like a dragonfly in the water. The three of them walked on the water as if they were on the ground, stepping on the water several times, only the soles of their shoes were slightly wet, and the uppers remained dry.
Above the lake where Moyu Jiuzilian was, Zhao Zheng took a deep breath and plunged into it. When he reached the bottom of the water, he used his eyes, enlarged his vision, and swam towards the bottom of the bottomless lake. Two pops rang out above his head, and the other two jumped into the lake. One of the three of them is a six-fold heavenly cultivator, and the other is a sevenfold heavenly cultivator, and they can't do it to the point where they don't get wet, so they can only swim honestly.
After the martial artist reaches the eightfold heavenly power from the heart, he can freely control the internal force and shape the internal force into various shapes. If an Eightfold Heavenly Warrior jumps into the water, he can use his internal force to protect his body, create a barrier, block the water from the outside, swim in a circle in the water and then go ashore, and his body can still stay dry.
Zhao Zheng traced the general direction in his memory, swam towards it, and kept scanning the surroundings, observing the environment while beware of the ghost head fish that might appear at any time. This kind of strange fish is not strong or weak, and if it is bitten, it must be dangerous. Out of caution, he tapped the scabbard on his waist and gave an order to Zi Chujian.
Zichu's sword unsheathed itself, and the sword body released a cold ray, illuminating the bottom of the lake, forming a bright ball of light. It roams on its own, meticulously guarding its owner.
The other two followed closely behind Zhao Zheng, and Zhao Zheng led the way. Zihuan untied the thirty-two dragon bone whips, held them firmly with her hands, and poured internal force into them, inspiring a snow-white light. The sword slave also pulled out two high-grade swords forged by himself, and used two swords to protect his body, but did not use the general's sword. The borrowed sword is not his own after all, unless something major happens, the sword slave will not be able to summon the general's sword.
Zhao Zheng stopped swimming, carefully comparing the landform in his memory with the surrounding environment, and when he went nearly sixty meters deep into the bottom of the lake, he finally saw the familiar outline, the potholes at the bottom of the lake, and the shape of the big stones, all of which matched the appearance in his memory. Overjoyed, he swam faster and plunged headlong into the bottom of the lake.
The force he swam with which he slammed into the bottom of the lake, stirring up gusts of sand and gravel, making the already unclear water even more turbid.
The dirt greatly obstructed his vision, and he secretly blamed himself for not being so reckless, holding his breath, his eyes widened, looking for the traces of the Moyu Nine Lotus in the muddy lake. This plant has a peculiar appearance, but it is very dark in color, and it is difficult to find it in the water of this lake.
The other two also swam down, accompanied Zhao Zheng, and looked around.
Zhao Zheng made a gesture to signal that the baby was nearby, and then made a gesture of splitting up to search, allowing the other two to disperse to search. The three of them scattered, but the sword slave and Zihuan were afraid of change, so they didn't swim too far, and at most they only looked for them within two feet of Zhao Zheng's side.
The three of them searched separately, and after about three pillars of incense, Zhao Zheng still found nothing, and there was not much air left in his stomach. Although his martial arts are good, he has not learned kung fu such as turtle breath and breath-holding, so he can't hold his breath for too long. Just when he was hesitating whether to swim up to ventilate, Zihuan, who was not far away, clapped his hands a few times and let out a applause code. (To be continued......)
