Qiao Mei nodded again and again, very excited: "Yes, yes, there is a red flower on it, Ah Mu said that he could help Qiao Mei pick it off......"

I know that if there is a ghost vine flower on this tree, it can only be one. Since Qiao Mei said so, then the safflower flower in her mouth must be this ghost vine flower. It seems that what Chu Liuyan said is not wrong at all, although he is not here, but he can accurately predict it based on my description alone, which is really admirable.

Originally, I searched around it but didn't find it, and I was skeptical of Chu Liuyan's words, but now I am convinced.

But even so, the flower was too hidden, and I couldn't find it in a short time.

I shook my head at Qiaomei: "I'm sorry, I can't see that red flower." ”

Qiao Mei pouted, obviously completely treating me as Ah Mu, and the coquettish expression on her face was intoxicating to watch. At this time, Qiao Mei had no traces of madness on her body. The more this is the case, the more people feel the injustice of fate, such a pretty and lovely girl has encountered such a miserable situation.

I couldn't refuse such a girl's request, and suddenly I had the urge to take down the oni vine flower and give it to her.

At this moment, Qiao Mei raised her head, pointed to the crown above and said, "Ah Mu deceived Qiao Mei, you look at the above, isn't it a safflower flower?" ”

"Huh?" I was surprised, and I looked up, and the dense foliage blocked most of the view, and there were any safflower flowers anywhere. However, I saw that Qiao Mei was serious, so I tried to lean over and look up at her angle.

Now, I finally saw it.

Looking up from Qiao Mei's point of view, a gap was formed in the layers of dense willow leaves. And through this gap, you can just see a bright red flower.

It was incredible, I climbed a tree and searched for two hours to find nothing. But Qiaomei stood below and saw the flower at a glance. And the flower was still hidden in the layers of leaves. And those leaves that blocked the line of sight were suddenly and cleverly avoided, as if a channel was specially opened for Qiao Mei's line of sight.

Could it be that Qiao Mei has a relationship with this big willow tree? Yes, it must be the reason for Jin Po. Jin Po hung the pocket of Qiaomei's son-in-law here, and the paper sedan chair was also carried here that night, which obviously had something to do with the big willow tree.

Then this big willow tree with aura should be able to feel Qiaomei's existence, so it opened a passage for her. And since Qiao Mei knows that there is a safflower flower on it, she must have seen this ghost vine flower before. In other words, as long as Qiao Mei is here, it will not be difficult to find this ghost vine flower.

I was overjoyed to understand this, and after determining the location of the ghost vine flower, I climbed up the trunk of the tree with my hands and feet again.

When Qiaomei saw me climbing the tree, she jumped up and down with excitement under the tree, and kept pointing me in the direction. With a goal and a bearing, I made rapid progress, and after climbing the tree, I quickly approached the location of the ghost vine flower.

When I climbed the thick branch, I realized that the leaves on this branch were generally much wider than in other places

。 And the leaves are dark green and shiny. It seems that this vine is a little more nutritious.

I gently pushed away the outer leaves, and the inner leaves were denser.

I can't believe it, how could a flower hidden so deeply be seen by the Qiao girl below.

When I opened the last layer of leaves, the mysterious ghost vine flower finally appeared in front of my eyes.

The flower is not clearly visible when it is below. All you can see is a red flower.

But I climbed up and looked closer, and I was amazed by the flower.

This flower does not have multiple layers of petals like the peony flower, but instead has only one layer, six petals. Among the petals is a lilac stamen. What is particularly striking is that on the petals, there is a black pattern, which resembles a face, a grimace.

Six petals, six grimaces.

As I approached the flower, I heard a strange fragrance.

I took a deep breath and the scent was refreshing, invigorating and intoxicating. It was such an inconspicuous flower, and I felt so beautiful when I looked at it, so beautiful that I couldn't bear to pick it.

I climbed the branch and just looked at the flower for three minutes. The more I looked at the flower, the more beautiful it became, and my mind seemed to be empty, and there was nothing left but this flower.

"Amu ......"

Suddenly, Qiaomei's shout came from below.

I stirred up, came back to my senses, and shook my heavy head. What happened to me just now? Are you fascinated by this flower? Didn't I come to take this flower to save the fat man's life?

No wonder the flower of Chu Liu's cigarette pipe is called the ghost vine flower, this flower is really evil.

I held my breath and didn't dare to smell the flower again, so I reached out and picked it.

Somehow, the closer my hand got to the flower, the more weak my heart became, as if something big was going to happen.

It's weird, isn't it just a flower?

I gritted my teeth, and as soon as I let go of my arm, I grabbed the stem.

Just as I was about to pinch off the stem, suddenly, behind the flower, a slender black shadow bounced up from a few leaves and shot straight at me.

I was startled, my attention was all on the flower, and I didn't pay attention to the leaves behind me. I didn't expect there to be something hidden.

The thing was fast, and I subconsciously pulled my hand to the side.

But I forgot that I was in a tree now, and my body ducked to the side, and all of a sudden it was empty, and my body fell to the ground.

Fortunately, my legs were crossed over the branch, my body was dangling, and my legs instinctively wrapped around the branch. The body was in an upside-down posture, and it was only then that he dodged the black shadow.

At the same time, I reached out and pulled out the pig-killing knife that I was pinning to my waist.

The shadow flew into the air, flicked on the trunk of the tree, and then scurried back.

I hung upside down and saw that the shadow was a blackened black black snake. The ink snake was coiled on the branches, and its mouth kept spitting letters, and the thief stared at me.

I secretly complained to myself, I already knew that there was a saying, called: Where there is a great treasure, there will be a strange beast.

That is, in nature,

Wherever there are treasures, there must be alien beasts guarding them, which is what the third uncle told me. This sentence is spread among those mountain walkers, who travel all over the famous mountains and rivers to collect strange treasures. Generally, where there are treasures, there will be Rui beasts or demon beasts to guard. They will be on guard, and only by getting rid of the strange beasts, or luring them away, can they get the treasure.

The ghost vine flower I saw today also looked unusual, and it was also guarded by an ink snake.

The ink snake guarded the flowers, and did not take the initiative to attack, still staring at me fiercely.
