Chapter Thirty-Four: Ancient Blood Orchid
"Well, if you want to come here, come here. Qingyue waved her hand. He took the lead and walked forward, and as he walked, he said to Chu Chen, "In the medicine garden, there are some rules, you have to know some." The whole medicine garden is divided into many areas. Each elder will have their own area, and you have come here these days to take care of the medicine field area that belongs to the spiritual elder. ”
Qingyue said as she gestured, "See? From there...... to that tree...... And then to that piece of bluestone, this piece of medicine field, belongs to the spiritual elder. Elder Lingxin was a well-known alchemist in the sect, so her medicine field area was also relatively large. The other medicine fields all belong to other elders, you must not break into them casually, lest you commit a taboo and it will not be good. ”
Qingyue said, demarcated a piece of land of about four or five acres, and instructed Chu Chen to see. This medicine field is the most complex terrain in the entire medicine garden. Elixirs, herbs, fruit medicines, rattan medicines, and so on were all available, which opened Chu Chen's eyes.
"In the past, this medicine field was taken care of by me. It's just that recently, my cultivation has reached a critical juncture, and I can't delay, and the elder can't find a suitable candidate for a while, so I can only let you come over, but I have to make you tired for a few days. ”
"Senior sister, distinguishing elixir is the basic skill of a pharmacist, even if the elder doesn't say it, I have to apply to come to the medicine garden to have a look. Chu Chen hurriedly smiled.
"Well, it's good to have this heart. Qingyue nodded.
The place where the Ancient Blood Orchid is located is an extremely secluded and cold place. It was the back of a towering tree, already close to the edge of the Spirit Heart Elder's Medicine Field, this large tree was luxuriant with branches and leaves, and the canopy was layered, covering all the heavenly light, making it like a cave and extremely cold and dark, without a trace of sunlight.
"In this place, can you grow elixirs without sunlight?" Chu Chen looked at the dark space around him and asked subconsciously.
"That ancient blood orchid is a unique elixir in the underworld, and it was discovered by the elders of the sect in an underground ruin...... No, that's it. Senior Sister Qingyue stopped in front of an elixir and pointed ahead.
In front of them, a strange herb with a dark red body was hanging a few crumbling leaves. The herb is about three feet tall and has a gray and dull body. The flower bones at the top of the herb were tightly shrunk into a ball, and the edges of the branches and leaves had a faint yellow look, and it was clear that they were about to wither.
Chu Chen's brows furrowed, at this time, he had already opened his spiritual sense, in his induction, the spiritual energy in the body of this blood orchid was extremely lacking, between the branches and leaves, there were many stems and veins that could not be dredged, and the whole herb was lifeless and did not have any vitality.
This herb exudes a faint ancient aura, which is somewhat similar to the aura of the gods and demons on the ancient immortal mountain, although it is far from comparable, but it seems that this blood orchid is really a genuine ancient thing.
"When this blood orchid was first brought back from the dark underworld, it grew well, but later, with the appearance of the flower bones, it gradually withered, and the spiritual heart elder consulted a lot of information, but he couldn't find the reason. Such an ancient spirit object has been extinct for many years, and there is no record. Qingyue sighed, and a touch of sentimentality suddenly appeared on her elegant and graceful face, "I got this peerless elixir by chance, but I couldn't find the reason for its withering......"
She looked at the elixir, as if she had thought of something, and was a little stunned.
"Senior sister, maybe, I have an idea, I don't know if it works. After a moment of silence, Chu Chen said softly.
"What??" Qing Yue was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened, and she looked at him incredulously.
"Before I take this method, can I ask Senior Sister Qingyue......" Chu Chen scratched his head, "Can I dispose of this blood orchid at will?"
"Arbitrary?" Qingyue pursed her lips slightly, "As long as you ...... As long as you really want to save this blood orchid, you can do anything. ”
"What if I accidentally kill the blood orchid?"
Even if you don't toss like this, this blood orchid won't live for two days. Jun Wan's gentle Qingyue is also a cheerful person, so she simply prepared to see what kind of medicine was sold in Chu Chen's gourd.
"Good. Chu Chen nodded, so he found a medicine shovel in the medicine field and walked quickly towards the dying Blood Orchid.
"What are you going to do?" Although Qing Yue said that Xuelan was at Chu Chen's disposal, she felt that the situation was not obvious and wrong.
"Dig it out. ”
The disciples of Biquan Immortal Sect collect medicine in the field all year round, and they are not good at anything else, and they are all skilled in digging medicine.
Chu Chen didn't wait for Qingyue to react, his hand shoveled down, and after a few shovels, the dying Blood Lan was dug out with a small ball of soil.
"This ...... This ......" Qingyue looked at this little junior brother dumbfounded, where is this to save Xuelan, he wants to kill it at all.
Chu Chen looked up at the sky, then silently calculated what in his mouth, and finally took the ancient blood orchid to the other end of the medicine field, and came to the side of the big blue rock with the most intense sunlight, and a few shovels dug the soil, buried the blood orchid in it, and pressed the soil tightly.
The so-called people move their nests to live, and trees move their nests to die. Qing Yue found that after such a toss, coupled with Chu Chen's rough technique, the originally sluggish Blood Lan suddenly became even more sluggish. The remaining leaves are also lonely like candles in the wind, and they seem to be falling out at any time.
"Senior Brother Chu, you actually transplanted the Ancient Blood Orchid to the place where the sun was most intense, it ...... It comes from the ground, and it's the most light-sensitive orchid species!"
Qing Yue couldn't cry or laugh a little, regretting letting this little junior brother come to Hu, if the Spirit Heart Elder knew that his Blood Lan was this way of dying, I am afraid he would have to blame Chu Chen.
"Senior Sister Qingyue, you just believe me once, anyway, you also said that a dead horse should be a live horse doctor. Chu Chen, who was covered in mud, smiled.
"This is also ...... Okay, I believe in Senior Brother Chu. "Qingyue has a gentle temperament and rarely blames people, and she has already decided in her heart that if the Lingxin Elder blames her, she will carry it by herself.
"Senior Sister Qingyue will come back in a few days, maybe there will be a good result. ”
"I hope ...... So. ”
Qingyue was even more uneasy in her heart, but she didn't say anything, sighed, and left the medicine garden to go back to the cold valley.
Chu Chen did this, of course, not because of Hu Lai.
Because he used his spiritual sense to detect that many stems and veins in Xuelan's body were blocked and could not be dredged, because the cold qi was too heavy, his great grandmaster's spiritual sense made him instinctively think that the power of Taiyin should be dissolved by the power of the sun.
Moreover, when he used his spiritual sense to inspect the structure of this blood orchid, he found that it itself was actually not afraid of sunlight, and the medicine masters, including the spiritual heart elders, may have misunderstood, with all the plants in the underground world being afraid of sunlight, let alone the blood orchid.
Chu Chen sat on the big blue rock, observing the blood orchid that he had moved over, and a few hours passed in a blink of an eye, and when he opened his spiritual sense to investigate, he could already sense that the cold qi in the blood orchid's body began to melt and melt gradually, and only then did a smile appear on his face.
It seems that next time Senior Sister Qingyue comes over, she can surprise her.
