Although Xiao Tian was reluctant, he got used to it when he rubbed it, what a big thing, he would treat it as a good deed to make the girl's family happy! Looking at Xiao Miao's appearance, he was obviously not a bad person, at least it was not annoying.

The mountains and ravines in front of her are vertical and horizontal, and the cliffs are steep, Xiao Miao knows that Baoyu is a monk and there will be no danger, but she still cares about Xiao Tian, and she actually felt a strap out of nowhere, and proposed to lead Xiao Tian to prevent the dog from falling down. Xiao Tian resolutely stopped doing it this time, avoiding Xiao Miao and running around Baoyu and Uncle Dao, but he refused to give in.

Uncle Dao persuaded beside him: "Xiao Miao, this dog is very clever and humane, and it is agile and agile, so it will be fine." Baoyu also said, "Yes, Xiaotian is actually a hunting dog, a very powerful hunting dog, and he has long been accustomed to walking through the mountains. ”

Xiao Miao had no choice but to do it, and said to Xiao Tian with an exaggerated expression: "Dog, it turns out that you have such a great ability!"

Xiaotian turned his head depressedly and ignored her, obviously knowing that he had a name called Xiaotian, and he was always barking like a dog, a dog. And this Uncle Dao is really a good person, every time he helps himself speak, Xiaotian also decided to do something for Uncle Dao. Since Uncle Dao also came to collect medicine, he helped find medicine.

Xiao Tian's body is flexible, it is easier to drill through the bushes than others, and its nose is particularly smart, and it can smell the unique smell of various medicinal herbs. Later, Xiaotian ran to the front of the team, and once he found something, he shouted at everyone, and everyone rushed over to watch.

Every time it finds a very good medicinal herb, Xiao Miao always touches its head and praises, but it is difficult to hide the disappointment, those medicinal materials are not what Xiao Miao wants, only Uncle Dao still occasionally picks a few plants and puts them away.

Uncle Dao also sighed: "The elixir that nourishes vitality and vitality is really too difficult to see. Although the dog is smart, it is not a human after all, it is difficult to understand what kind of elixir we are looking for, it can be so human to know how to help, it is not easy. ...... Baoyu, although these medicinal materials are not what you are looking for, but try to pick as many as possible, they are still useful, so why don't you take any of them?"

Xiao Tian finally couldn't help but sneeze, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that you are looking for that kind of elixir, why didn't you say it earlier! The elixir that nourishes vitality and vitality is difficult to find in this mountain wilderness! The best in the world is, of course, the five-colored divine lotus and the Lang Yu fruit, which are on Baoyu's body, but unfortunately that thing cannot be taken out at will." ...... Uncle Dao, why do you call me a dog?"

Just listening to Uncle Dao's name to Xiao Tian, judging that his identity is likely not Xiao Miao's elder, otherwise a mighty man will not follow Xiao Miao's name, which may be a habit or etiquette. But Xiao Miao's attitude towards Uncle Dao is also very respectful, and he does not treat ordinary servants like he treats, as if he treats a respected elder.

Baoyu replied with a smile: "I am a person who travels far away, and it is impossible to carry too many things with me, if I see everything and want it, I will not be able to take anything away in the end." Since I don't need them, let them grow well in the mountains, and there are other herb pickers in the mountains here, which can be regarded as an opportunity for others. ”

Only then did he know that what Xiao Miao and Uncle Dao were looking for was that kind of elixir, so the best in the world was of course the five-colored divine lotus and the Lang Ji fruit. But he couldn't take out this kind of thing easily, and the mountain god had also told him that the immortal elixir, including the beast tooth artifact, must not be revealed.

Moreover, Baoyu's immortal elixir was all fused with the form god, and he had refined it into an artifact, which was much more precious than the immortal elixir itself. Even if he could return to the Taihao Ruins, without the help of the Taihao Heavenly Emperor who sealed the altar with the help of the magic circle back then, he would no longer be able to refine those immortal elixirs into artifacts that fused into the form gods, so each one was extremely precious.

On some special occasions, I have heard that there are masters in the world who have given others immortal elixirs, but I have never heard of anyone who has taken out the artifact that he has refined and fused into the form of the god to give away, unless it is before ascending or passing away, with the imprint of the divine soul to be passed on to the disciples or left in the sect, becoming one of the most valuable inheritances.

Baoyu had to sigh secretly: the world often travels through thousands of mountains and rivers, and spends his life looking for things around him, because those things do not belong to him. - This is what the mountain god once said, and he finally understood what he meant. The elixir of immortality is the best example, because many mortals are willing to believe that if they get this kind of thing, they can really be "immortal".

Although Baoyu would not take out the immortal elixir that had been refined into an artifact and give it to these two strangers who had just met, he was also willing to help Xiao Miao and Uncle Dao. Although the elixir that nourishes vitality is rare, it is not only limited to the five-colored divine lotus and the Langji fruit, but also in the depths of the mountains and fields full of vitality and aura, and if you are lucky, you may be able to find it.

And after Xiao Tian knew what kind of elixir Xiao Miao and Uncle Dao were looking for, he spent a lot less effort, and before sunset on this day, he finally found the elixir they wanted-Ginseng King.

Ginseng is a perennial vine. It grows in high places with cold climates. The part of the medicine is a rhizome buried in the ground with slender whiskers, which mainly treats qi deficiency and weakness, fatigue and exhaustion of vitality. The flowers on the rattan have five petals, and the roots of the petals are held together like a small bell. The flowers are tender green when they first open, and they are not easy to spot, and they turn golden yellow at the end. Therefore, it is also called golden bell vine.

Golden bell vines can often be seen on the high mountains in this area, but ordinary ginseng is not what the seedlings are looking for. But the strain found by Xiaotian can be called the king of ginseng, and its growth period is at least more than 30 years, which is very rare in the mountains and wilderness. Its rhizome is more than a foot long, the whole body is dark yellow, and when it is dug out, it is fragrant with medicine.

Xiao Miao was surprised and delighted when he saw this elixir. Carefully dug out its rhizome and put it into the medicine basket, not even breaking the slender roots, and then put one hand around Xiaotian's neck, patting its ass and praising it incessantly. Xiao Tian was a little embarrassed to be praised, and finally twisted his body comfortably on Xiao Miao's chest.

At this time, Uncle Dao coughed a few times, as if to remind Xiao Miao of something. Xiao Miao immediately reacted, this ginseng king was found by Xiao Tian. And Xiaotian is Baoyu's dog, and it should belong to Baoyu, at least she can't take it all. Xiao Miao stood up embarrassedly and said, "We are all looking for the same medicine, I took this five-flowered ginseng king, what should I pay you?"

Baoyu smiled and waved his hand: "You dug out the medicine, so you can take it." It is fate to be able to go together, obviously you have an emergency, so you don't have to be polite to me. ”

He said so. On the contrary, Xiao Miao felt even more embarrassed, so he glanced at Uncle Dao. Uncle Dao was stunned, although his expression was a little hesitant, he still took out an object and handed it to Baoyu and said, "Little brother, we won't take your elixir for nothing." If you take it back, what you can exchange for is nothing more than this kind of reward, please accept it. ”

Baoyu was stunned. He also knew this small piece of things, and he also carried a lot of them, but he didn't expect that someone would actually want to give him a dragon tree blood lipid. This thing is precious. Its value is by no means below that of the five-flower ginseng king, but the spiritual effect is different. It seems that Xiao Miao really needs the elixir of the King of Five-Flower Ginseng, so he will give it back with this thing.

Uncle Dao was stunned when he saw Baoyu, thinking that he didn't know him, so he quickly explained: "You may not have seen this thing, but you should have heard of it, it is Nagarjuna blood lipids." This specialty is found in the country of Bamuro, and many monks have been blessed by the king. ”

Baoyu hurriedly took a step back, waved his hand again, and said: "It's not that I don't know, but this thing is too precious, and its value is definitely more than a five-flowered ginseng king, how can I take such a good thing as you for no reason?...... In this way, continue to find the medicinal herbs, if you don't need them, let me pick them first. In fact, you didn't take advantage of me along the way. ”

Baoyu resolutely refused to accept it, and Xiao Miao couldn't force it, so he sighed again and said: "Although Nagarjuna's blood lipids are good, it is different from the spiritual effect of the King of Five-Flowered Ginseng!"

After dark, Uncle Dao led the way to find a camping place and lit a fire to rest for the night. Baoyu noticed that Uncle Dao lit three fires that were the same as each other, and let everyone rest between the fires. This seems to be the habit of camping in the military formation, and when Mura Bao led the sergeants to pursue Baoyu outside Shuangliu Village, he also lit a bonfire in the mountains and fields overnight.

But Baoyu didn't ask much, took out the felt robe from the package, laid it out, and sat upright to breathe. There is a spring not far from the campsite chosen by Uncle Dao, and there is a screen-shaped mountain rock next to the spring that can block everyone's view. Before resting, Xiao Miao also went to the spring behind the mountain rock to wash up.

Baoyu sat upright as if he had entered a fixed state, and Xiaotian seemed to be asleep lying next to the fire, in fact, he was cultivating his spirit. Uncle Dao and Xiao Miao walked out of the camp and stood by the spring in the distance and whispered.

Xiao Miao sighed: "The five-flowered ginseng king found today should be able to be used in medicine, but the spiritual effect is still insufficient, we must at least find the golden bell vine that has grown for more than 100 years." ”

Baoyu, who was sitting down, was slightly taken aback when she heard this. Although the five-flowered ginseng is a perennial vine, it usually only grows for about ten years, and today this five-flowered ginseng king is very rare, and it is Xiaotian who found it with great difficulty. She wants to find five-flowered ginseng that is more than 100 years old, but it is simply too difficult, and it is probably impossible to search the mountains and wilderness.

The reason why these elixirs are precious is not only that the growth period is very long, but that the medicinal effect is stronger, but also that some unknown changes have occurred in the process of natural growth and have broken through a certain limit of themselves, so ordinary ginseng can survive for so many years, so it also has a more special spiritual effect.

Such an elixir should not be used to treat ordinary injuries and diseases, if it is an injury or internal damage, in fact, Nagarjuna blood lipids are a better thing to use. Since they don't need Nagarjuna's blood lipids, they shouldn't use it to save their lives, but to extend the lives of those who are about to die, so they need to replenish their vitality.

It is precisely this kind of thing that is the rarest in the world, not to mention ordinary people, even monks with a high realm need it very much, unless they have taken enough of it, and in the end it is really ineffective. Baoyu sighed secretly, and remembered what the mountain god had said-

"Child, the elixir of immortality you are carrying must not be easily revealed. And these artifacts fused in your form and god, even if they can't play a real magical role, can be used to protect themselves and help others. This experience of all things in the world must also witness the joys and sorrows of life and death in the world. ”

The meaning of these words was somewhat understood by Baoyu. It seems that there is a person who is very important to Xiao Miao, his life is exhausted, his life is dying, and ordinary healing methods are powerless, because mortals always have death, and what can be cured is disease rather than life. But what Xiao Miao wants to do is to use this kind of elixir to continue his life before his vitality is completely exhausted, and try to let his people live for a longer period of time.

This is actually a kind of futility, but who in the world doesn't want to live a good life longer? Baoyu has come along the way, although he is very willing to help the people he meets, life and death are natural things between heaven and earth, and he can't manage it if he wants to, and even some people are slaughtered by his own hands.

Ke Baoyu was also very curious, who exactly did Xiao Miao want to save? You must know that the more you go into the depths of the mountains, the more likely there is a place where that kind of elixir grows, and the more dangerous the encounter on the road may be. But Xiao Miao didn't take the initiative to tell him, so Baoyu didn't ask.

The next day we left the camp and continued our march deep into the mountains. When they came to a hill, Baoyu stopped and said, "I can feel that the vitality and aura between the heavens and the earth ahead are obviously very full, and it should be more suitable for the growth of elixir, we should go over there and look for it." ”

Uncle Dao smiled bitterly: "Kid, haven't you been here before?"

Baoyu nodded, "Yes, it's my first time here. ”

Uncle Dao: "No wonder you say such things!"

Baoyu was surprised: "Is there anything strange ahead?"

Uncle Dao: "It's not weird, and there is indeed a rare elixir in the world growing, and almost everyone knows about it among the monks of the Bamuro Kingdom." ”

Xiao Miao also said: "Come with me, I'll take you over to have a look, so that you can open your eyes." ...... But that side is the forbidden place of the Bamuro country, and you can only watch it from a distance on the opposite cliff. ”

Baoyu and Xiao Tian, who were also curious, followed them down the mountain beam and up the high slope, and turned a corner on the mountainside, and saw a group of people standing on the high cliff not far away, all of them seemed to be monks, all standing there and looking ahead.

Uncle Dao sighed: "In this Pengshan, there are a lot of people who have come recently, all of them are here to collect medicine. ”

Xiao Miao also sighed: "I hope they can find a suitable elixir, there are more people, and the chances are always greater." ”

Uncle Dao shook his head and said, "It's better to count on the temporary search in the mountains and wilderness, than to count on the sects to ask for help." ...... Xiao Miao, you shouldn't have come to join in the fun in person. ”

Xiao Miao: "Waiting for others to send the elixir to the door, I have nothing to do." I always felt that I should do something about it, otherwise I would have this cultivation for nothing. ”

Xiao Miao is the elixir, and he actually hopes that other people in the mountain can also collect the elixir, which makes Baoyu feel a little strange and a little surprised, but he didn't have time to ask in detail, and several people had already walked up the high cliff while speaking. There were already more than twenty people gathered here, all of whom cast curious, tentative, wary or friendly glances.

The name of this place is Pengshan, it is a very large mountain field in the west of the national capital, the peaks and peaks are undulating, and the remaining veins of the mountain are connected with the Zhangren Mountain in the north of the national capital and the Meishan Mountain in the south of the national capital. Although they are not as mysterious and ethereal as the legendary Bayuan Nine Hills, they are equivalent to "fairy mountains" in the minds of ordinary people, and it is said that there are immortals living in the mountains since ancient times.

It is not clear whether there are immortals or not, but there are indeed many monks in the mountains, and there are also cultivation inheritance sects established by monks. Most of these sects only appeared after the founding of the country 500 years ago, but there are also some sects with more ancient origins.

Of course, the major sects of the Bayuan sect of honor first recommend Chiwangqiu, Mengyingqiu and Wufuqiu, and there are many other large and small sects, all over Bayuan, because you can see monks almost everywhere you go, but the number of people is more or less, and the cultivation is low or high. Many of them are actually not inheritance sects in the strict sense, and they don't even have a complete cultivation inheritance system.

Some people have a good cultivation, find a beautiful and quiet place in the mountains to open a cave to cultivate, and when they have leisure, they find a few disciples and teach them to practice the secret methods they have learned or understood, and build a courtyard and a few houses in the mountains, but ordinary people will also feel that they are very mysterious.

Some of such dojos may gradually disappear over the years, just like those demon clans that have appeared in the deep mountains, because the original monks are no longer there, while some may gradually find themselves stronger, and even appear monks above the six realms or even more superb, groping their own path on the path to the sky, leaving behind a complete cultivation system and corresponding unique secret magic powers, thus forming a sect inheritance.

Sometimes, even though the patriarch is no longer there, the descendants still gather together to cultivate, and some people are in charge of various daily affairs, forming a sect. There are also some like-minded casual cultivators, who communicate with each other to confirm what they have cultivated, jointly find and guide the successors, get together to cultivate and live, and over time they will also form a sect in a certain sense.

Such a sect may not be in the mountains. It may also appear in villages and cities, but the habit or cultivation needs of the monks are often to build a cultivation dojo in the quiet place of the mountains and wilderness, and sometimes it is just a small place, a few monks, but there is no way to find it for ordinary people.

In the mountains and wilderness around the capital of the country of Bamuro, such sects are the most distributed, and if you count them regardless of size. There are at least dozens of them, and many of the monks who were born in them also serve in the country, or have the status of co-workers or even national workers. These monks also often gather together on weekdays to exchange ideas, confirm their cultivation experience, and exchange what they need, forming a unique circle.

And in the depths of this Peng Mountain, there is a valley full of vitality and aura. On its sunny slope grows a rare elixir in the world, the Nine Dragon's Blood Treasure Trees.

This dragon blood treasure tree was planted by the founding king of Pakistan five hundred years ago, and was carefully cultivated, and there were originally thirteen of them. The blood lipids produced by it have also become a treasure of the Ba clan, and are often used to give to the monks of various sects in the country. Ba was founded by the descendants of a tribe affiliated with Emperor Taihao, and its patriarch was the founder of the country.

Three hundred years after the country, there was civil strife in Bayuan, and this dragon blood treasure tree once became an ownerless thing. It was contested by various sects in the vicinity, and some sects also tried to establish a dojo in this valley, but they didn't occupy it for a long time. The Dragon's Blood Treasure Tree has changed hands many times, and the body of the tree has been cut and scarred by the elixir forcibly obtained by the monks of various factions.
