Chapter 279: Ice Blood Lotus
Because they had to go to Qinling Mountain to collect medicine on the second day, after dinner, Ye Feiyan and Junlan gathered Changfeng, Changyue, Lanjiang, Soybean and Peng Chenglong together and made a simple division of labor and arrangements.
Chang Feng and Lan Jiang accompanied Ye Feiyan and Jun Lan to Qinling Mountain to collect medicines, and Peng Chenglong and Soybean bought medicinal materials that could be bought in the prescriptions to improve Jun Lan's meridians and dantian in Chifeng City, in addition to Ye Feiyan also wrote a list of medicinal materials needed to analyze Jun Lan's blood and handed it to Soybean for them to purchase it together.
On the morning of the second day, when they first entered the Mao, Junlan, Ye Feiyan, Gu Yifeng, Changfeng, and Lanjiang rode horses and headed all the way to Qinling Mountain.
After nearly an hour of riding, a group of five of them stood at the foot of Qinling Mountain.
Qinling Mountain is undulating, although its height is not as high as the Fengyang Mountain Range, but there are mountains behind the mountain, layers of mountains and mountains, but unlike the Fengyang Mountain Range, the Qinling Mountains are mostly low trees, and the trees are sparse, shrubs are scarce, but they are overgrown with weeds, and the gaps between trees and shrubs are densely filled.
Jun Lan, Ye Feiyan, Gu Yifeng and others walked all the way to the top of Qinling Mountain along the sheep intestine trail left by the herb pickers, and because there were uphill roads along the way, the speed of the horses slowed down.
Half an hour later, they had already walked through the front mountain, and arrived at the back mountain, which was relatively dense with shrubs, and the back mountain was rarely visited, so there were all kinds of animals living in the mountain, and standing on the edge, you could hear the cries of various animals from time to time.
Although there are still traces of herb pickers walking forward, they are not very noticeable, and it is difficult for horses to walk here because of the shrubs pulling on each other.
"Chang Feng and Lan Jiang, you two find a secret place and place the horses well."
Chang Feng and Lan Jiang took the reins of the horses in the hands of Jun Lan, Ye Feiyan and Gu Yifeng, and after the two discussed, Lan Jiang went to find a place first, and Chang Feng led the horse to follow him.
"Little girl, because we are pressed for time, when we get here, we will use light skills to go to the back mountain, and it is estimated that after walking seven or eight miles, we should be able to collect the medicinal materials we need."
When Gu Yifeng said this, he glanced at Ye Feiyan meaningfully, "Little girl, do you want to practice the advanced level of the fire control technique?" It's a great place to practice. ”
Ye Feiyan's eyes flashed, but it was only for a moment, "Grandpa Feng, let's collect the medicine first, and when the medicinal materials are collected, if the time is still early, you will teach me the advanced level of practicing the art of controlling fire." ”
Gu Yifeng nodded and glanced at Jun Lan, "It's okay, it's still important to collect medicine." ”
After speaking, Gu Yifeng took the lead in jumping up and jumping towards the depths of the back mountain.
Jun Lan and Ye Feiyan looked at each other and smiled, and also jumped up to keep up with the footsteps of the ancient wind, but they did not forget to leave marks for Chang Feng and Lanjiang along the way.
Gu Yifeng, Jun Lan, and Ye Feiyan finally stopped in a valley with a relatively wide view, few trees, and the ground was mostly covered with shrubs and weeds, and the rocks were craggy during the period.
A mountain stream about ten feet wide flowed through the middle of the valley, and the small animals running to drink water by the stream heard the movement of them landing, and quickly fled one by one, hiding in the bushes, and secretly observing their movements.
"Little girl, the ten kinds of medicinal herbs you need should be collected in this valley, you and the stupid boy will go separately to pick, and I'll go ahead to see if there is an ice blood lotus blooming in the waterhole upstream of me?"
Gu Yifeng's mood seemed to be a little urgent, and he had already jumped towards the upper reaches of the stream when the words fell.
"Ice Blood Lotus?"
Ye Feiyan's heart moved, the attributes of the ice blood lotus are peculiar, it has the effect of driving away the cold and protecting the body for people with body cold, and it has the effect of driving heat and detoxifying people with body heat, although its value is not very high, but it is also the top grade in medicinal materials.
However, in Ye Feiyan's memory, where the ice blood lotus grows, there will always be a special aquatic weed, because it is highly poisonous, it is usually called poisonous lotus algae, it is precisely because of this aquatic plant that grows near the roots of the ice blood lotus, which protects the roots of the ice blood lotus well, thus ensuring that the ice blood lotus is not invaded by water creatures.
Usually people only know the medicinal value of the ice blood lotus, but do not know the value of the poisonous lotus algae, and when Ye Feiyan studied Chinese medicine and Western medicine, the most interesting thing is to combine Chinese and Western medicine to make a variety of different drugs or poisons, and the poisonous lotus algae is also fortunate to become her research object.
"Xianggong, how about we go along and see?"
Seeing Ye Feiyan's slightly twisted brows, Jun Lan felt that Ye Feiyan must have thought of something, so he nodded quickly and pulled her to jump in the direction where Gu Yifeng disappeared.
About a mile upstream of the stream, there is a cliff about five or six zhang high, and the stream forms a waterfall at the cliff, because the stream is wider, but the water flow in the stream is not large, thus forming a thin layer of water curtain on the cliff.
The sun that had just risen and was still blushing reflected on the curtain of water, dyeing it a faint shade of red, which was very tempting.
At the place where the waterfall falls, there is a pool of about thirty or forty feet in diameter, when the waterfall falls, although the falling momentum is not weak, but because of the small flow of water, the splashing droplets are quickly absorbed and submerged by the surrounding pool water, and it is a pity that it does not form a spectacular scene.
The water of the pond should not be very deep, except for the middle area covered by a wide patch of lotus leaves that seem to have shallow blood streaks, you can clearly see the roots of the aquatic plants swaying with the flow of the beach, and on the edge of the pool, you can clearly see the stones at the bottom of the pool.
Seven or eight lotus leaves were clustered around a pink-white lotus flower mixed with a trace of blood, and about two feet away from this ice blood lotus, another flower bone of an ice blood lotus appeared between the two lotus leaves.
"Hahaha, I missed the season when I came last year and couldn't pick the Ice Blood Lotus, but this year it's just right."
Gu Yifeng muttered to himself, glanced at the Ice Blood Lotus that was in full bloom, and then glanced at the flower bone very painfully, "Hey, if you can wait here for the next day, you should also bloom, it's a pity." ”
"Grandpa Feng, the flower bone can also be used in medicine, and its medicinal effect will be even higher than that of the blooming Ice Blood Lotus."
"Little girl, are you telling the truth?"
Gu Yifeng glanced back at Ye Feiyan, and didn't bother to ask why they came, but happily asked the question that he hoped Ye Feiyan would give a positive answer to.
Ye Feiyan nodded, "That one has been in full bloom, looking at its situation, it has been open for some time, the wind and rain, the medicinal ingredients on its petals and stamens have faded a lot, and this flower bone is already very full, think about its petals and stamens have grown, naturally its medicinal ingredients have also been full, and there is no loss, just into the medicine." ”
Gu Yifeng thought about it for a while, and seemed to feel that Ye Feiyan made a lot of sense, "Since that's the case, then I'll pick both of them back." ”
Gu Yifeng jumped up on tiptoe, landed on the lotus leaf, and quickly picked off the two ice blood lotuses, and after a moment, he had returned to Ye Feiyan and Jun Lan's side.
