Chapter 15: Abduction
The western countries are not small. But compared to the distant Dashen, it is much inferior.
This kind of disparity can not only be reflected in the area of the country and the living standards of the people, but even the level of cultivators between the two places seems to have a certain gap.
Therefore, the official language of the Great Shen Kingdom is widely popular among the major families in the northwest, and those large families that have been inherited for more than 100 years have special teachings to impart this knowledge.
In contrast, Hejiabao in Taicang County is indeed much behind.
Although He Yiming's level is indeed not very good, Yuan Lixun still has some ability. When He Yiming copied the text in the drawings and then handed them to Yuan Lixun, she easily translated the contents of the drawings.
Hohhot Mountain ......
This is the name of one of the most important peaks on the map.
There are nearly 100,000 books in Yokoyama's library cabinet, and I really don't know how the seniors of Yokoyama were able to collect these books.
Here, Yuan Lixun actually found the legend of Hohhot Mountain and the surrounding map.
When she took the map and presented it in front of He Yiming's eyes, He Yiming's eyes suddenly lit up. Because the topographic map depicted above turned out to be very similar to the map he had obtained from Lu Xinwen.
Of course, due to the different scales and the different people who drew them, there are still quite a few differences.
But He Yiming can already determine that Hohhot Mountain is definitely the target he wants to find.
This huge mountain is an inaccessible place belonging to the Kairong Kingdom, and it is the same as Yokoyama. Hidden in the seemingly endless mountains.
He Yiming copied all the place names in the map, and the translation was successful, and he already had a general idea in his mind. Just wait for the time to go to Kairong Country in the future, you can explore it in depth.
"Young Master, can you start your homework today?" Yuan Lixun put away the book and asked with a smile.
He Yiming sighed lightly and nodded slightly.
Yuan Lixun took out the books that had been prepared a long time ago, and Qianqianyu's hand swept lightly over the books, and began to teach Dashen's words.
The time with Yuan Lixun is very happy, and the happy time is also short-lived.
Soon, the day's homework was over, and for He Yiming, he also mastered a few more new phrases and phrases.
When everything was done, He Yiming took her back to Elixir Peak.
Although the Elixir Peak is on the side of the main peak, with Yuan Lixun's footsteps, it will take a certain amount of time to return smoothly, and in He Yiming's arms, this speed is not the same.
Sending Yuan Lixun outside the courtyard, He Yiming continued to the top of the mountain to meet the medicine man. And Yuan Lixun entered alone, she had to prepare for the evening's food, so naturally she couldn't always follow He Yiming's side.
A moment later, He Yiming had already entered the cave on the top of the mountain, and as soon as his eyes turned, he immediately saw an open stone door. Entering it, He Yiming immediately saw the medicinal herbs prepared on the ground.
These medicinal materials were all prepared for him by the Medicine Dao people in advance, and after he came here, he could immediately start refining the pills.
I flipped through the herbs. Picked up the top piece of paper.
This is the task assigned to him by the medicine man, although the pill to be refined today is not long, but the difficulty of refining is a step higher than the previous pill.
The name of this elixir is very simple, it is an insect repellent pill, when used, you only need to integrate a little bit into the water, and then spray it on people, so that the vast majority of mosquitoes can avoid it.
This elixir seems to be very simple, but it is not easy to refine, especially if the ingredients of several special flower dew are mistaken, then the refined elixir will be extremely smelly. That smell may be better at repelling mosquitoes, but no one is guaranteed to use it.
He Yiming squatted down and carefully examined the medicinal herbs, and after a moment, a satisfied smile appeared in his eyes.
Although limited to empirical reasons, his ability to distinguish and recognize medicines is far from being comparable to that of a true pharmacist. But he has his own unique approach.
As long as his hand gently touches the herbs, he can sense the vitality contained in the herbs.
Using this method to judge the quantity of medicinal materials, it is the privilege of the innate master of the wood system and the special physique of He Yiming, even if it is a medicine Taoist person, it is far inferior to him in this regard.
These medicinal herbs prepared by the medicine people for him. They are all high-quality goods, and the vitality inside is so full that it is definitely the top of the same type of medicinal materials.
He picked up these medicinal materials, and then slowly put them into the copper dome of the alchemy room according to certain steps, and under the soak of dew, these medicinal materials were slowly undergoing subtle mixing changes. After the tea effort, He Yiming kicked with his foot, and suddenly opened the door of the earth fire, and the raging power of the earth fire began to rage in the alchemy room again.
Once the alchemy officially began, the somewhat contemptuous smile on He Yiming's face suddenly completely converged, and he immediately put all his energy into it.
In his body, there are two different exercises running in parallel, one is the innate dead wood gong, and the other is the innate fire gong.
The power of the Agni Fire Gong is naturally as unstoppable as a spark burning the prairie fire, and more importantly, this kind of exercise has an extremely obvious effect on the control of earth fire.
When He Yiming used this exercise, the temperature of the earth fire was really changing according to his mind. There was a red energy emanating from his inner body, as if even the chaotic black was illuminating.
This method of using acupoints and exercises to control the temperature of the earth fire was something he learned from the medicine man. Although he had seen it a few times before and asked some questions, today was the first time he had applied it to the path of alchemy.
Because before today, the pills that the medicine Dao man asked him to refine were all very simple, and there was no need to use the subtle adjustment of the heat at all, only the nine grades of the pagoda switch below were enough to adjust. And today's high-level insect repellent pill can just be used as his practice.
In addition to the Agni Fire Gong, the Innate Deadwood Gong is also running at the same time, and the two complement each other and match it just right.
An hour later, a happy smile appeared on He Yiming's face. He raised his foot and kicked to turn off the earth fire, and then said in a loud voice, "Elder Yao, how do you see my homework?"
From outside the open stone door, the medicine man walked in slowly, his eyes did not look at the copper tripod in front of He Yiming, but sighed, and said, "Elder He, your method of controlling fire is actually somewhat similar to the old man, I don't know where you learned it?"
He Yiming smiled and said, "Of course, I learned it from you. ”
The medicine man said suspiciously: "But the old man remembers, it doesn't seem to be taught." ”
He Yiming was slightly stunned, and said, "You always laughed, the last time you were refining the Innate Golden Pill, didn't I ask you about this question." ”
The Medicine Daoist's face suddenly changed a few times, and after a moment, he said, "Elder He, could it be that after the last observation and those questions, you have mastered the trick?"
He Yiming blinked his eyes twice, and said seriously: "This thing is actually very easy to learn, and there is no trick." He paused and added kindly: "Just chop wood to make a fire, just watch it once." I guess I can master it all. ”
The muscles on the medicine man's face twitched faintly, and his face, which was completely inconsistent with his actual age, was blue and red. Hearing that He Yiming compared the use of innate fire skills to chopping wood to make fire, he didn't know whether to be angry or sad.
According to the estimation of the medicine man, even if he taught him without concealment, He Yiming would need decades of training before he could initially master the fire control method of the Innate Fire Skill. But when I saw it today, He Yiming was already using it well, although he was still a little rusty in terms of technique, far from his own kind of old spicy and smooth. But it is definitely in the same vein as his fire control technique, and with a few more practices, it will only be a matter of time before he is on par with him.
After a long time. The medicine Taoist let out a long sigh, and he finally understood that He Yiming was not only in the wood system, but also had that powerful talent that was almost legendary. Moreover, he is not inferior in the slightest in terms of his cultivation talent in fire-based exercises.
Stretching out his hand, the Medicine Daoist patted He Yiming deeply on the shoulder, and said, "Elder He, your talent is so outstanding, if you don't pay attention to the way of alchemy, it will be too wasteful." ”
He Yiming smiled, seeing the expression of the medicine man, he vaguely guessed a little, as if he had easily learned his fire control method, which was quite a blow to his old man. He sighed in his heart, if he had known this, then he would not have used the Innate Fire Skill.
The lid of the copper tripod was opened, and more than a dozen white pills inside were turned drippingly.
The medicine man glanced at it and said, "Perfect." ”
He Yiming nodded and smiled with satisfaction, the innate master with the second-line martial arts of wood and fire really took a big advantage when refining the pill.
However, he didn't know that in addition to him, although the other innate masters of the second line of wood and fire had advantages in the way of alchemy that were difficult for ordinary people to achieve, it was impossible for them to be so exaggerated like him.
After getting the evaluation of the medicine man, He Yiming asked a few questions again, and then left happily.
Behind him, the medicine man couldn't help but sigh for a long time, after being with a true genius for a long time, the blow to others would be a little too great. This is especially true for those who used to call themselves geniuses.
※※※※
He Yiming returned to the courtyard, but there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He entered the door, everything was normal inside, and there didn't seem to be anything abnormal, but for some reason, He Yiming felt a strong uneasiness in his heart.
The smile that had just appeared on his face had completely disappeared, replaced by a solemn one.
His gaze swept around. The two ears trembled a few times even more quickly and slightly. Then, his face finally changed.
In this courtyard, he didn't even find any trace of Yuan Lixun.
During this period of time, in addition to going to the main peak library to read, He Yiming returned to the Elixir Peak Cave Mansion to complete the alchemy homework arranged for him by the medicine man. Then he returned home, and after eating, he practiced martial arts with Yuan Lixun.
This set of itineraries has formed a fixed pattern, and every day when he comes back from the alchemy room, he can see Yuan Lixun's smile and the dishes that are most suitable for his taste.
But today, when he returned early, it was all gone.
His figure shook, and suddenly it turned around the rooms like lightning, but after a circle, his face became more and more gloomy.
Because he noticed that the contents of several rooms seemed to have been touched. It's just that the person who did it was unusually careful, and basically didn't show many flaws. But He Yiming's eyesight is so good, just from some extremely subtle traces of dust, he has already seen some clues.
No matter who touched the things in these rooms, but this was not a good sign, and He Yiming's heart became more and more uneasy.
After a deep groan, he quickly put the Daguan knife on the back of the room and then turned around and left the courtyard, and in a few moments came to his grandfather's house on the elixir peak.
Facing He Yiming who suddenly appeared, He Wude naturally showed a happy smile, although when this grandson came in, he felt a little unpredictable, but this did not affect his love for He Yiming.
He was living alone at the moment, and He Laibao had already left Hengshan for Hejiazhuang on his orders.
He wanted to take He Quanxin to Hengshan and let him be promoted to innate as quickly as possible.
After getting the Innate Golden Pill, the hearts of the two old men were on fire, and the sooner they promoted to the Innate Realm, the better, they naturally didn't want to waste any time.
"Grandpa, has Reikaru been to you?"
"Nope. He Wude affirmed: "What happened?"
"Reikaru is gone. He Yiming said in a deep voice: "I have a very bad premonition. ”
The expression on He Wude's face suddenly became serious, if Yuan Lixun was lost by himself, it would be nothing, but if He Yiming had a bad premonition, then he would not dare to take it lightly.
After all, the innate powerhouses have the ability to communicate with the qi of heaven and earth, and once they feel that their hearts are moved, then basically something not so good will happen.
"Yiming, you are quiet. Since the last time they met, He Wude has determined that Yuan Lixun's status in He Yiming's mind is no longer comparable to that of ordinary concubines, if something really happens, I am afraid that his grandson will definitely not give up.
He Yiming nodded slightly, he took a deep breath, the cool air on the mountain filled his chest and lungs, and his somewhat restless heart finally calmed down.
The moment he was completely calm, his heart was like a crystal clear diamond bead, and he no longer had the slightest habit.
He had entered a miraculous, indescribable state at this moment.
Perhaps because of worry, or perhaps because of anger, his spirit was concentrated at an unprecedented height.
He Wude, who was standing in front of him, looked at Yiming in surprise, in his feelings, this grandson seemed to be a little different from just now, but what was the difference, he couldn't say at all.
He Yiming's ears trembled slightly, this frequency is not very fast, but the efficiency is far higher than before.
At this point, He Yiming realized that there was still great potential to be tapped in his body and on top of the exercises he had cultivated.
But at the moment, he didn't pay attention to this aspect, but put all his attention into his ears.
Slowly, all the sounds followed the wind into the ears, and the range continued to expand at a terrifying rate.
This is the first time he has done his best since he came to Yokoyama. In the past, due to the medicine Dao people and others, he didn't dare to use Shunfeng Ear Qi Gong casually on a large scale, but this time, he was already unscrupulous.
He Huo Ran found that the range he could hear this time was far beyond the limit he could reach when he was in the capital of Tianluo Kingdom.
He knew in his heart that this was what he had achieved since the last epiphany.
Before he knew it, his ears had passed through the winds of nature, and the whole mountain had been listened to.
Whether it was the suspicious medicine man on the top of the mountain, or a young couple flirting and scolding in a certain family, even the sound of earthworms crawling and wriggling in that vegetable garden was faintly in his ears.
At this moment, he suddenly had a feeling like a god in the world, as long as I wanted to know, there was nothing that could be hidden from me......
Finally, a voice from afar reached his ears.
This voice was extremely light, so light that it was almost whispered in the ear, but the meaning contained in this voice made this voice sound like thunder in He Yiming's ears.
"The woman of the Yuan family has already succeeded, and she has been placed in the cave, let's go quickly, if we wait for that person to come back from alchemy, I am afraid that there will be changes. ”
He Yiming's eyebrows raised slightly, and suddenly fell into He Wude's eyes, the old man reacted so quickly, and immediately said, "Do you have a clue, take me with you." ”
He Yiming stretched out his hand without saying a word, and a stream of true qi passed over, and immediately flew out with him like two big birds.
Under the blessing of He Yiming's true qi, the two of them landed silently, and in an instant, they were already far away from the foot of the mountain.
Even with He Wude, He Yiming's speed was still as fast as lightning, and his movements were extremely gentle, as if a breeze was blowing, which was imperceptible.
After a while, the two of them came to the foot of the mountain unconsciously.
At this moment, He Yiming was completely relieved, because he had already heard the familiar sound of breathing in a cave.
Although he could hear from the sound of breathing that Yuan Lixun was in a coma, he was absolutely sure that Yuan Lixun had not been harmed in the slightest.
Two steady footsteps sounded, and then the two walked into the cave side by side, He Yiming hesitated, and did not make a move immediately, but just kept the appearance of these two people firmly in his heart.
These are two women in their forties and fifties, and one of them has actually reached the tenth layer of the day after tomorrow, although he has not yet reached the peak like He Wude, but it is not far off.
