Chapter 286: A Strange Flower

So many secrets, like a silkworm cocoon, peeled off layer by layer, want to figure out all these problems, when do we have to wait?

But preventing the death of corpse insects is the top priority, once these corpse insects are gone, it will be difficult for us to defend against the attacks of the blind people, this is our most important barrier.

But how can it be stopped? We don't have a clue.

Suddenly, just as everyone was sitting down, my cousin seemed to think of something, he stood up and walked to a bookshelf by the balcony, we all thought he was looking for some books, but what we didn't expect was that he turned to the back of the bookshelf and came out with a pot of flowers.

Seeing this scene, we were all a little confused: What's wrong with this old man, at this critical moment, and in the middle of the night, how could he suddenly come out with potted flowers, what is this trying to do?

But my cousin didn't pay any attention to our puzzled gaze, he took the pot of flowers, quickly sat back, and laid them on the coffee table in front of us.

To be honest, several of us have no interest in flowers and plants, although we know that there are many flowers and plants on my cousin's balcony, but none of us have paid special attention to them.

Just when we were scratching our heads, my cousin suddenly pointed to the pot of flowers and asked, "Look at what kind of flower this is and what is so special about it."

Although we were very puzzled by this series of actions of our cousin, after he said this, we couldn't help but observe the pot of flowers in front of us, but when we looked carefully, we found that this flower was really special!

At first glance, this pot of flowers looks ordinary, but green leaves dotted with a few pale red flowers, neither delicate nor fragrant, so that it does not attract attention at all, but when you look closely, you will see that its flowers are really strange - the shape of the flower is very much like a monkey (or rather a person) hanging from a tree with its limbs outstretched, and between the legs of this "monkey" there is a very obvious masculine genital!

Not only that, but even the facial features of the "monkey" are extremely clear.

We can't imagine that there are flowers of such shapes in the world!

"What kind of flower is this? It's just a live ** monkey," Sister Li couldn't help but ask first. The cousin did not rush to answer, but pulled out a book from the shelf, turned to a page very skillfully, pointed to a few of the pictures, and said, "This is the flower."

We hurriedly leaned over, and sure enough, the pictures in the book were pictures of this kind of flower.

It turns out that this wonderful flower is called Orchisitalica Poir, which is a plant that grows on the Mediterranean coast, and is also called "naked male orchid", "**orchid" and so on.

"Cousin, why did you suddenly take out this pot of flowers at this time? Can it help us solve the problem at hand? Hongmei asked, and we suddenly realized - is this really the purpose of my cousin?

The cousin smiled and nodded to Hongmei: "Yes, Hongmei guessed well, the crisis we are encountering now may really only be solved by it." But this 'naked male orchid' is very different from its kind, and it has a more special experience. ”

As soon as we heard that it could solve our imminent predicament, we couldn't help but get excited, and immediately pricked up our ears to listen to my cousin tell us about the origin of this strange plant.

"Do you remember that Tang Chizhou?" My cousin asked another abrupt question.

"Tang Chizhou? Of course we remember, it was the famous doctor in Shanghai, who accompanied the American professor, to this mountain, to find the Taoist priest who could curse - of course, this Taoist priest is the old Mr. Yang we went to Shanghai to see a few days ago, unfortunately, after we met him, for some reason, he died very quickly, and the death was so mysterious and strange - it was Tang Chizhou and the American professor who saved the Taoist priest who had shed his skin and brought him to the United States to be cured, so that the Taoist priest lived for so many more years, and they are also the benefactors of the Taoist priest."

Xiao Lei's summary is very clear.

The cousin nodded heavily and said: "Xiao Lei is right, this Mr. Tang Chizhou died many years ago, the so-called 'doctors can't treat themselves', and when he died, it was not considered a long life." But I heard from my master that Mr. Tang had always had a good relationship with the Taoist priest - that is, the old Mr. Yang - during his lifetime, because he was one of the Taoist priest's life-saving benefactors, so the two often got together and had close contacts.

And the seed of this flower was given to him by the American professor during the Taoist priest's treatment in the United States, and after returning to China, the Taoist priest gave this seed to Tang Chizhou.

When the American professor handed over this seed to the Taoist priest, he once said to him that in our Chinese "Journey to the West", it was mentioned that the ginseng fruit that looks like a human shape may be fictional, but in reality, the flowers of this plant really resemble ** men, and this kind of flower is cultivated and improved by American professors, and it is more like ** men than the original kind.

Not only that, but the most wonderful thing about this flower is that it is "the man's thing between the legs", which is always pointing to the sun, like a sunflower. That is, the thing rotates with the sun.

The Taoist priest who has been able to be superbly in Feng Shui immediately realized that this flower is the extreme yang of the plant, this strange flower and herb, in many ways, will definitely be of great use, in addition, the Feng Shui master used his unique Feng Shui technique, but also saw that after this flower grows, it can no longer continue to reproduce, which makes this seed more precious.

So, the Taoist priest carefully collected the seeds of this flower, and after returning to China, he transferred it to Tang Chizhou.

Mr. Tang felt that this kind of pure yang plant in nature could only maintain its pure yang energy when it was close to mountains and rivers, and in the metropolis of Shanghai, even if it was planted, it would damage its natural yang energy, because in this kind of big city, the inherent yin and yang energy of heaven and earth had long been disturbed.

Therefore, Mr. Tang gave this seed to my master, and I am the only student of the master, and I am also his closest person, he knows that I like to study things, and I have a wide range of knowledge, and I am full of curiosity about things, and I like to study. So, he gave me the seed again.

In this way, after so many tosses, the seed fell into my hands, and this was nearly twenty years ago.

Although I was very excited when I got the seeds, I wanted to plant them in the soil immediately to see if the flowers that grew out were as legendary, but because the seeds were so precious, I didn't take any action, but first read a lot of information to understand the characteristics of this flower.

After a few months or so, I tried to adjust the most suitable range according to the growth characteristics of this flower, including the temperature required for its growth, the amount of water it needed, the pH of the soil required, etc., and sure enough, the seed quickly took root and sprouted, branched out, and within a few months, it bloomed.

This flowering shocked me very much - not only because the shape of this flower is too realistic, too similar to a ** man with open limbs, but also because that part of the flower can accurately follow the sun, and as soon as this flower blooms, I never thank you.

I read the information that the flowering period of this flower is only a few months, but after the improvement of the American professor, this flower does not thank the flowers all year round, not only the flowers do not thank you, but the leaves do not fall, these nearly 20 years, the cold and summer, not a single leaf has fallen, and no flower has ever thanked, do you say strange? It's even tougher than plastic flowers. ”

When my cousin said this, we were even more shocked, and we opened our eyes wide one by one, and looked at them carefully several times, up and down, left and right.

But we really don't understand, what is the use of this strange flower for our current situation? Could it be that it can be relied on to find the source of the yin qi that kills the corpse insects?

When we asked this question, my cousin nodded with a solemn expression and said: "Yes, now I have to try, have you ever thought about it, if this time it was done by a blind man, and this method of killing corpse insects must have been mastered by him in the last few days, if we can't find a corresponding countermeasure, he will not only use this method to kill our corpse insects, but after that, he will continue to kill my master's corpse insects, and at that time, the consequences will be unimaginable."

As soon as my cousin said this, we suddenly felt excited, and then we realized the severity of the situation. Damn, this blind man is so difficult to deal with, no wonder so many first-class masters have been defeated by him for so many years!

"But with this flower alone, how can we find the source of yin qi that kills corpse insects? This flower can't speak? Have you figured it out? Sister Li couldn't wait to ask.

My cousin looked at us, pursed his lips tightly, and nodded solemnly, but he didn't explain immediately, but took out a compass from the drawer next to him, turned it on the coffee table, and asked us, "You see, no matter how you turn the compass, it always points in the north-south direction, right?" ”

Of course, this is a self-evident question! Why did my cousin suddenly ask such a question? I really don't know.

The cousin still continued to explain to himself: "Then how can you make the compass not point to the north and south?" ”

As he spoke, he took a magnet from the side, and then approached the compass, and suddenly, the compass was subjected to a strong magnetic field, and the pointer began to tremble, no longer pointing north and south.

I couldn't help but think to myself, "Oh, cousin, which one are you playing?" At such a critical juncture, how can we talk about these irrelevant questions, and how can we teach us science lessons? ”

I looked at Xiao Lei next to me, he also frowned, didn't say a word, and Hongmei and Sister Li were also at a loss, I just wanted to ask my cousin, suddenly, Xiao Lei seemed to have realized something, half guessing, half tentatively said to my cousin: "Do you mean that the part of these flowers" like a man's thing has been pointing to the sun, just like a compass, always pointing to the north and south, but once they are disturbed by the yin qi, they no longer point to the sun - just like the compass is disturbed by the magnetic field - And what can disturb them is the source of yin qi and the yin qi emitted that causes the death of corpse insects. ”

Although what Xiao Lei said was a bit like a tongue twister, we probably understood what he meant.

And the cousin smiled happily and said: "It's still Xiao Lei smart, that's what I mean, when we are looking for that yin source, we can hold this pot of flowers, as long as that part of the flower, once there is a disturbance, no longer pointing to the sun, we can know that the kind of thing that emits yin qi is nearby, so it will be much easier and faster to find."
