Chapter 45: Wu Jian's Decision
Yang Ming took Cai Yin and ran wildly for a few streets before stopping in a quiet alley.
"Those people are horrible. Cai Yin gasped, those people were still skeptical of Cai Yin's words before, and when the girl successfully refined the purple-clothed spiritual liquid, she became like a fanatical fan. Cai Yin said with palpitations, "The world outside the mountain is really difficult to understand. ”
Yang Ming sat down on the ground, exhaled a long breath, and then said, "You just have less experience, and slowly you will get used to it." ”
Cai Yin was also tired, so she leaned on Yang Ming's back and calmed down, and then she took out a three-leaf violet orchid from her arms.
"Why do you still have a three-leaf purple orchid?" Yang Ming asked when he saw the herb that Cai Yin had taken out.
"I deliberately kept one because this violet orchid is the herb I'm looking for. Cai Yin looked at the herb in her hand and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Yang Ming suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly asked, "Really, do you mean that the three-leaf violet orchid can be used to refine poison?"
"Three-leaf violet orchid is naturally not good, it has too few leaves. ”
"Huh?" the boy tilted his head, making an incomprehensible sound.
Cai Yin looked at the puzzled young man, smiled slightly, and then explained: "Because of the different number of leaves, the purple orchid is called differently, this purple orchid has three leaves, that is, the three-leaf purple orchid, which has a strong paralyzing effect and is mostly used for healing, which is also the most common purple orchid outside." And every time the violet orchid grows an extra leaf, its paralyzing power will be doubled. It was once recorded in the medicine book that a nine-leaf violet orchid could make people fall asleep for more than a month just by smelling it, and the poison made from its stamens could easily poison a strong person at the level of sunshine, and it was a high-level poison of the eight-flavor level. ”
"Eight-flavor level poison, that's even more powerful than the blood orchid. Yang Ming's joy rose, but soon fell again, "But the book is talking about the nine-leaf purple orchid, and all we have in our hands now is the three-leaf purple orchid, where are we going to find the nine-leaf purple orchid?"
Cai Yin shook her head lightly and said: "Zilan only grows a leaf every other year, and Zilan's lifespan is not very long, nine years is already a super limit lifespan, plus Zilan itself is a plant with very fragile vitality, and it will wither if there is a slight change in the environment, so it is almost rare for a violet orchid with more than three leaves, let alone a nine-leaf violet orchid, in the past nine hundred years, there are only a handful of nine-leaf violet orchids that have appeared on the mainland." ”
After listening to Cai Yin's explanation, Yang Ming's heart suddenly fell to the bottom of the lake, "Isn't that hopeless?"
Looking at the young man's dramatic expression that turned from joy to sadness, Cai Yin couldn't help laughing, but when she saw Yang Ming's gradually angry look, she quickly stopped, and then said, "It's not hopeless, do you remember what I mentioned to you before?"
The grafting refers to the fusion of the advantages of different plants, so as to change the characteristics of the plant, the herbs that can only grow in the high mountains, after improvement, change the growth characteristics, can grow in the medicine field.
Yang Ming understood, "Cai Yin, you want to improve the purple orchid by grafting flowers and trees to shorten the growth cycle of the leaves. ”
Cai Yin nodded and said: "Many weeds have a very short growth cycle, they can grow two or three leaves in a day, combining the growth characteristics of weeds with violet orchid, if successful, you can greatly shorten the growth cycle of violet orchid leaves." ”
Yang Ming turned his sadness into joy again, and said happily: "Great, so that you can cultivate the Nine Leaf Purple Orchid, and the uncle will be saved." ”
But Cai Yin poured cold water on the boy again, "The truth is this, but whether it can be successfully developed is not certain." First of all, I need enough violet orchids to do the improvement experiment. ”
"How much do you need?"
"At least three hundred. Cai Yin said unceremoniously.
"So much?"
"Experiments are not successful at one time, they often have to go through hundreds, or even tens of thousands of failures, and 300 plants is very rare. Cai Yin replied seriously.
Yang Ming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and didn't dare to complain in the slightest, now the top priority is to find the drug dealer who sold the three-leaf violet orchid before, I don't know if he has so many three-leaf violet orchids in his hands.
After resting for a while, Yang Ming took Cai Yin to the street where he met the drug dealer last time, and sure enough, he saw the drug dealer in the same place.
"Little benefactor, it's you. The drug dealer recognized Yang Ming at first sight and shouted happily.
Yang Ming felt a little embarrassed by this title, but now was not the time to care about the title, he asked straight to the point: "How many three-leaf purple orchids do you have here?"
After being stunned for a moment, the drug dealer still counted the three-leaf violet orchids in his stall, "There are about thirty of them here, but there are many more places where I live." ”
Yang Ming was overjoyed, "How many, I want them all." ”
This is the first time Yang Ming has said such a bold word, and it is inevitable that there is still some uneasy excitement in his heart, Yang Ming thought, go back and borrow money from Xin'er, it is indeed much more convenient to have a rich county lord as a partner.
The drug dealer's name is Niu Jiu, and he is Cai Guoren's family. Ever since he heard that Wuxian City held a medicine tasting conference seven years ago, Niu Jiu would come here every year to sell medicinal materials. Because the inns in Wuxian City were too expensive for civilians like him to afford, he and other drug dealers who came here to sell medicine built a few huts outside the city.
Niu Jiu took Yang Ming and Cai Yin to the thatched hut outside his city, and the inside of his thatched hut was full of medicinal herbs, all of which were three-leaf violet orchids, and Niu Jiu probably counted them, a total of one hundred and seventy-six plants.
More than a hundred less than the number requested by Cai Yin, Niu Jiu said with some regret: "Little Brother Yang, there are only these three-leaf violets left." ”
Hearing this, Yang Ming only nodded helplessly, and then asked Cai Yin, "Are these three-leaf violets enough for you?"
Cai Yin said truthfully: "There is no way to do it, I can only try my best." ”
In the past, the most successful experiment of Cai Yin's improvement herb was completed after 378 experiments, but now she only had 176 opportunities to experiment, and this time, she had to be more careful.
Cai Yin took a look at the environment around the hut, surrounded by green trees, and there was an open grass behind the hut, the soil was very soft and sunny, which was suitable for medicinal fields.
Then he said to Yang Ming and Niu Jiu: "I want to cultivate medicinal herbs here, it is very quiet here, there is no outsider disturbance, and the place is also very suitable for growing medicinal herbs." ”
Yang Ming nodded, compared to Wuxian City, this place is indeed more suitable for Cai Yin experiments. Yang Ming asked Niu Jiu: "Brother Niu, can you let Cai Yin stay in your hut for a few days." ”
"No problem, little brother Yang is kind to me, this little girl can live with peace of mind, and it's no problem to live as long as you want. Niu Jiu agreed very happily, on the way here, Niu Jiu and Yang Ming chatted a lot, maybe they were all civilians who came out of the village, there were many common topics, plus Yang Ming had helped Niu Jiu before, and after a few chats, the two became brothers.
Some people say that it is easier for civilians to be friends with civilians, because both sides have nothing to ask for, and only you are the person. If you are good, I am willing to be friends and even brothers with you.
"Thank you, Brother Niu, Cai Yin has lived here for a few days, so I will trouble you to take care of it. Yang Ming said gratefully.
Niu Jiu patted his chest and said, "You just put a hundred hearts, and you will be fine." ”
Niu Jiu quickly cleaned up a room for Cai Yin, and Yang Ming helped arrange everything. When leaving, the young man still looked at Cai Yin with some concern, "You must take care of yourself, I will come to see you if I have the chance." ”
Cai Yin smiled: "I used to live alone in the mountains, not to mention that now I have Brother Niu with me, don't worry." ”
Yang Ming nodded, and then left with confidence.
Yang Ming wanted to stay here with Cai Yin, but he couldn't. Because Su Buying was still monitoring their residence, if Yang Ming didn't go back for a long time, it would definitely arouse Su Buying's suspicions, and if Su Buying found out about Cai Yin's secret alchemy, it might put Cai Yin in danger.
On the way back, the boy secretly swore in his heart that he must protect Caiyin and never let the girl be in danger.
When Yang Ming returned to the room, it was already dark.
Wu Jian stood by the window, his face a little gloomy. Xin'er and Lin Dong sat at the table, and their mood was also very low. Presumably, no one brought any good news on this day.
Lin Dong told Yang Ming that Uncle Wu Jian had searched the entire Wuxian City, but he didn't find Zhu Hai, and Zhu Hai seemed to have evaporated from the city and disappeared.
Yang Ming saw that everyone was very depressed, so he encouraged: "I have good news, today I went to Weng Lao to ask about the detoxification, Weng Lao's research has made great progress, and I hope to solve the poison in the uncle." ”
Hearing this, Xin'er and Lin Dong both looked at the young man in disbelief, and asked in disbelief, "Really?"
Yang Ming nodded heavily, "Until the last day, we must not give up." ”
At this time, Wu Jian turned around and looked at the confident smile on the corner of the young man's mouth, Wu Jian's gloomy face finally stretched a lot, and he rarely showed a smile, whether Yang Ming's words were true or false, but now for them, the most important thing is confidence and morale.
There is no way for people to be boundless, this sentence is most suitable for use here, people, no matter when, can not lose faith.
After a tiring day, Yang Ming finally slept a long night, and when he woke up the next day, he was surprised to find Wu Jian leaning against the window, looking at himself, as if waiting for him to wake up.
"Finally wake up, give you a quarter of an hour, dress, wash, and then go to the back mountain to find me. ”
After saying this, Wu Jian walked out of the room. Yang Ming was stunned for a full ten seconds before he came to his senses, quickly tidied up his clothes, took a simple sip of water, and ran out.
The inn where Yang Ming and they lived, called Yishan Listening to the Wind, is a hill behind the inn, embraced by green water, very quiet.
When Yang Ming came to the back mountain, Wu Jian was standing under an ancient tree, the sporadic morning light shook from the huge green canopy and fell on Wu Jian's face, he closed his eyes, as if he was pondering something, and only opened his eyes when he heard the sound of people coming. His eyes were sharp, and he looked at the boy like a knife.
Yang Ming was very uncomfortable by his gaze, and couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, what is the matter with calling me here so early?"
Wu Jian did not answer the young man's question, but stretched out his right hand, and in an instant, the light was great, as if the sun had fallen into the forest, and after the dazzling light dissipated, Yang Ming saw a clear and pure crystal suspended above Wu Jian's palm, and there was no purer spar in the world.
Yang Ming recognized that this was Pangu Stone, Qianhong.
Just as the boy was attracted by Qianhong, Wu Jian suddenly urged Qianhong, and his figure flashed like a meteor and disappeared.
"Uncle......" Yang Ming shouted as he looked at the place where Wu Jian had disappeared, and almost at the same time, Wu Jian's voice suddenly came from behind him,
"I'm here. ”
The young man was so frightened that he almost cried out, but he saw Wu Jian smiling at the corner of his mouth, holding a jade pendant in his left hand, handed it to the young man and said, "You left this in the room." ”
This pendant was a gift from Yang Ming when he was admitted to the hospital. Yang Ming took the pendant, his expression was full of consternation, "Uncle, you are so powerful, in this moment, you can go back to the room from here, and then come back." ”
Looking at the young man, Wu Jian restrained his smile, his expression became serious, and then as if he had made some kind of great determination, he said: "I will give you a thousand rainbows, and I will also teach you how to cast them for a moment." ”
Wu Jian's words shocked the young man.
"Why did you suddenly give me Qianhong......" The boy took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm. Although hearing this news made Yang Ming very excited, seeing Wu Jian's serious expression, the young man felt that things were not so simple.
"If I die, only you can protect Xin'er and Lin Dong from Wuxian City safely. I thought about it for a long time, although Liu Chen, the general of Jiang State, also came to Wuxian City, but he is by no means Zhu Hai's opponent, in case Zhu Hai really moves to kill, Liu Chen alone will not be able to protect you, so I want to teach you for a moment, learn this trick, it should allow you to escape safely. Wu Jian explained.
Even though Wu Jian knew that he was about to die, he still remembered Yang Ming and them, which made the young man very moved, "Uncle, you will be fine, your poison will be cured." ”
Wu Jian smiled lightly, "I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you." I can't let you die here. Wu Jian touched the young man's forehead and said, "You, Xin'er, and Lin Dong, you are all still young and very brave, and I am very happy to be your cultivation teacher this time." ”
"Uncle......" the young man couldn't help but choke up, "We are also proud to have such a mentor as you. ”
Wu Jian wiped the tears from the corners of the young man's eyes and said, "Now is not the time to cry, we are running out of time, you must learn how to use Qianhong for a moment as soon as possible." ”
Yang Ming wiped away his tears, met Wu Jian's gaze, and nodded heavily.
At this time, Yang Ming remembered what Wu Jian had said before, and suddenly asked, "By the way, uncle, I remember that you said before that urging the Pangu Mirror will consume a lot of Wu Yao, and with our current Xingyao's strength level, we can't control the Pangu Mirror at all." ”
"It's true that with Xingyao's strength, it is impossible to urge the Pangu Mirror, but you are different. Wu Jian looked at the young man in front of him and explained: "This month, I have fought against you no less than a hundred times, and I found that the amount of Wu Yao in your body is very amazing, not at all like the Xingyao level, and even more than the Wu Yao in the body of the Yueyao-level national warrior. And what's even more amazing is that there are a few times when you fight, not only does the Wu Yao in your body not decrease, but increases, as if there is a huge horsepower absorber in your body, and then constantly absorbs the Wu Yao outside, and then replenishes it into your body. ”
Although Wu Jian felt very strange, Yang Ming understood that the huge horsepower absorber described by Wu Jian was his own bloodline physique, the dragon source vein. The dragon source vein, without the need to deliberately drive himself, can absorb the natural Wu Yao and transform it into his own use, and after a battle with the vampire leech, Yang Ming knows a characteristic of the dragon source vein, when the thinner Wu Yao in the body, the stronger the absorption power of the dragon source vein, and the dragon source vein can not only absorb the Wu Yao in the natural world, but also absorb the Wu Yao in the human body. In the battle with the vampire leech, it was by relying on the dragon source vein to absorb a large amount of Wu Yao in the vampire leech's body, and Yang Ming had a chance to turn defeat into victory.
However, now the dragon source vein in Yang Ming's body is still in the growth stage, and the young man is not yet able to use the dragon source vein proficiently, but Zu Ze said that as long as he cultivates more later, in the future, when he fights with the enemy, he can urge the dragon source vein to absorb the opponent's Wu Yao.
