It didn't take long for Fang Xiong to sweep away Xiao Li's cooking. It was the best meal he'd had in more than 20 years. After eating, Fang Xiong spread out on his chair and let out a comfortable sigh.

Xiao Li put away the dishes and chopsticks, and then sat in the courtyard with Fang Xiong to discuss the route of tomorrow's march.

"Grandpa Fang, do you know where the mountain lotus grows?" Xiao Li poured a glass of water and asked.

"It's not far away, it's not close." Fang Xiong grabbed his beard and sold Guanzi.

"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Li looked at Fang Xiong puzzled and asked Fang Xiong to continue.

"Shanlian is just across the street from the old man's medicine garden." Fang Xiong said and glanced at the medicine garden, "The old man built the medicine garden here to get the mountain lotus. ”

"Then ......," Xiao Li stopped talking, "Then why haven't you got it yet?" Is it because it's too dangerous? ”

"Hehehe, it's not, it's just because the mountain lotus blooms once in thirty years, I have been waiting here for more than twenty years, and this year is its flowering period." Fang Xiong smiled, his face bitter, "But it's also very dangerous, with my current martial arts, it is estimated that I can't get it, and people can't accept old age!" ”

"Is there anything to pay attention to when picking mountain lotus?" Xiao Li lowered his head and thought for a while before asking.

"Well, there are some things to be aware of. I also told you before that the flowering period of the mountain lotus is only two hours, and only when the full moon shines on the mountain lotus is the time when it is picked is medicinous, otherwise you will immediately wither after picking the mountain lotus. Fang Xiong nodded and explained to Xiao Li in detail.

Xiao Li frowned when he heard what Fang Xiong said, he didn't expect the conditions for picking this mountain lotus to be so harsh, so he had to know when the mountain lotus bloomed, otherwise it would be too risky to just try his luck.

"Grandpa Fang, do you know at what time the mountain lotus began to bloom?" Xiao Li raised his head with a solemn expression.

"This old man doesn't know, because the mountain lotus is too difficult to pick, and the people who go to pick it basically have no return, and the old man has not studied it after observing here for so many years. So the old man advises you to think about it again, you are such a good girl to die like this, the old man is a little unbearable! Fang Xiong shook his head, a look of pity on his face.

"Grandpa Fang, don't worry about me. Even if it is difficult to pick the mountain lotus, I will go, this is my responsibility. Xiao Li's tone was firm, with a little tenacity in his eyes.

"Okay, the old man is waiting in this medicine garden for you to pick the mountain lotus tomorrow and come back!" Fang Xiong admired the female doll in front of him very much, he looked at Xiao Li with hope in his eyes, maybe she was lucky to pick it.

"Grandpa Fang, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't told you my name yet." Xiao Li suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile, "My name is Xiao Li." ”

"yes, that's a nice name." Fang Xiong took a sip of water, "Xiao Li, Xiao Li'er!" The old man will call you Xiao Li'er in the future, hahaha! ”

"It's good if Grandpa Fang likes it." Xiao Li said in his heart that he was very helpless, why did an old man call her like this, she didn't have a proper shape.

"It's not too early, you should rest early, tomorrow you will have a busy job." Fang Xiong glanced at the sky, stood up and said.

"Well, it's to rest early." Xiao Li nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, the old man will take you to the guest room." Fang Xiong beckoned to Xiao Li and led the way in front, "Don't touch the things in this place, be careful of being poisoned by me." ”

"Well, I'll be careful."

In fact, even if Fang Xiong didn't remind her, she wouldn't touch the things here, who knows where he poisoned her, she cherishes life very much.

"Here, you'll sleep here tonight." Fang Xiong pushed open the door and led Xiao Li into the house.

Sure enough, as Xiao Li expected, the room was dirty and messy, and the bedding was quite tidy, it should have been a long time since no one lived here, so it was so dirty.

"Eh, hey, the old man is a little messy here, you bear with it." Fang Xiong saw the mess in the room and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"It's okay, I'll just clean up." After that, Xiao Li began to clean up.

It didn't take long for Xiao Li to clean up the room and lie down on the bed to sleep. But she looked out the window at the night and couldn't sleep at all. It's not just that Hui Shangyi is still unconscious, she is still wondering when she will be able to return to modern times. She already owes Hui Shangyi a lot of favors, and she doesn't want to have too much to do with Hui Shangyi, just because she wants to go back later.

After this incident, Xiao Li was even more eager to return to modern times. Now the people in Huifu are beginning to get acquainted with her, and they even like her. She didn't want her to leave the ancient times, these people were still thinking about her. If she can pick the mountain lotus alive this time, she will find a way to escape from Huifu.

Xiao Li fell asleep thinking about it, and the next morning she didn't sleep until noon like before, and got up early.

She got dressed and walked out of the room. As soon as he got out of the room, he saw Fang Xiong tidying up his things.

"Grandpa Fang, what are you doing?" Xiao Li stepped forward curiously and asked.

"Ahh I'm giving you what you need to get around. Fang Xiong looked up at Xiao Li, and the movements in his hands did not stop.

Xiao Li looked at the things that Fang Xiong had prepared, and even brought her tableware or something, and she was speechless for a moment. She went to collect medicine instead of going to a picnic, and brought her pots and pans.

"Grandpa Fang, you don't need to bring this pot and pan." Xiao Li proposed, and was about to take these things out, but was stopped by Fang Xiong.

"That's not good, what if you're hungry, you don't have any utensils to eat." Fang Xiong shook his head and continued to tidy up, "I also brought you an umbrella, the weather in the mountains is changeable, and it may rain." ”

"Grandpa Fang, I'm going to collect medicine, not to go for a picnic, I can't bring you so much!" Xiao Li took Fang Xiong's hand and looked at him and said with a smile.

"This ......" Fang Xiong felt that what Xiao Li said was not wrong, and pondered for a while, "Then don't bring these tableware, bring an umbrella." ”

With that, Fang Xiong took out all the things in the baggage.

"By the way, I'll give you some poison." Fang Xiong seemed to remember something, took out a small packet of poison from his arms and handed it to Xiao Li, who accepted it unceremoniously.

There are too many beasts and mosquitoes in the mountains, and relying on her three-legged cat alone, she will definitely not be able to defeat some large birds of prey, so Fang Xiong's poison may come in handy at that time.

"The old man's poison is absolutely guaranteed, you can use it with confidence!" Fang Xiong proudly touched his beard and said, "By the way, the old man will show you the map, you just came here and don't know much about the situation." ”

Fang Xiong then took Xiao Li to his pharmacy. As soon as he entered the pharmacy, the smell of medicine came to his face, making Xiao Li dare not breathe.

"This is the map of the whole mountain drawn by the old man in the past 20 years, and I have clearly marked the dangerous places, so you can follow this map!" After Fang Xiong gave Xiao Li the meaning of the icon, he gave the drawings to Xiao Li.

Xiao Li took the map and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was worried that she couldn't find her way before, but fortunately Fang Xiong had a map, otherwise she might really have to rely on herself to find it. Fang Xiong really did her a big favor.

"Thank you, Grandpa Fang." Xiao Li's tone was full of sincerity, she was really grateful to Fang Xiong, "Grandpa Fang, you are so good to me, is there anything you need me to do for you?" If I can collect the medicine and come back, I must thank you very much. ”

"I don't need you to do anything, just come back safely. Besides, you picked the mountain lotus to help me. Fang Xiong said solemnly, "The antidote to the Seven Days Upside Down Ecstasy doesn't require too many mountain lotuses, so the rest of the mountain lotuses are also mine, and it can be regarded as fulfilling my wish for more than 20 years." ”

"Good!" Xiao Li showed a smile at Fang Xiong, this smile was to comfort Fang Xiong, and it was also to comfort himself.

"When are you going to leave?" Fang Xiong handed Xiao Li another piccolo.

Xiao Li looked at the piccolo with a puzzled expression, looked at Fang Xiong and asked, "Grandpa Fang, what is this doing for me?" ”

"This is Xiliang's piccolo, this piccolo can control the insects in the mountains, if you have anything, you can use the picco to deal with it." Fang Xiong gave Xiao Li what he had always treasured.

"Thank you, Grandpa Fang." Xiao Li happily took the piccolo in Fang Xiong's hand and carefully put it away, "Just for these things that Grandpa Fang gave me, I will come back safely!" I set off after breakfast, because I was not familiar with the terrain, so it would be better to leave early. ”

Fang Xiong nodded in agreement, and at the same time alerted Xiao Li: "You must be careful, many people must know that the mountain lotus blossoms, and there may be people robbing you when the time comes, you must be careful." ”

Xiao Li also knew that what Fang Xiong said was true, after all, this kind of precious thing was something that everyone in the world wanted.

"Good!"

Xiao Li nodded, and then went to breakfast with Fang Xiong. After eating, Xiao Li walked to Hui Shangyi's room and glanced at Hui Shangyi. He was still unconscious, and his previous resolute face became pale, this poison was really too poisonous, and Hui Shangyi's life was passing silently.

Xiao Li sorted out his emotions and set off. After saying goodbye to Fang Xiong, she began to take out the map to find her way.

The map made by Fang Xiong was indeed very detailed, and she had walked a lot less, and she had walked a third of the way in less than an hour.

The scenery in the mountains is very charming, but Xiao Li has no time to take care of this beautiful scenery, so he hurries away. She had to arrive early to watch the lotus blossom and pick it again. Although Xiao Li thinks so, the reality can't do this.

Suddenly, there were some voices in the distance, and Xiao Li vigilantly hid behind a large rock.

"Second brother, where is Shanlian!" A pretty female voice sounded in the silent mountains, which looked particularly good.

"I don't know, we can only look for it slowly." A stout male voice responded.

"We've been gone for three hours, can we rest for a while? Second brother, I can't walk! The girl sat on the stone where Xiao Li was hiding, and kept beating her legs.

The man stopped, watching the girl on the stone compromise.

"Just rest for a stick of incense." The man put down his sword and sat down next to the girl.
