Chapter 40: The First Eclipse of Dragon Yang Leaves
On this day, Li Xuan and his entourage were touring the mountains and rivers while hurrying, and the three war horses were just walking slowly.
But at this moment, Li Xuan stopped, staring at a grass plant on a hill in the distance.
"Longyang grass?" Li Xuan whispered to himself.
That's right, this is the kind of method that needs to be taken in the True Dragon Recipe, this Dragon Yang Grass is not a spiritual root, at most it can only be regarded as a relatively difficult to find medicinal herb, most of which grows in some sunny highlands.
Li Xuan's eyesight is extraordinary now, and this Longyang grass thousands of miles away can't escape his eyes.
"What's wrong?" asked Zhao Xuan'er, who was closest to him.
"It's okay, wait a minute. ”
After speaking, he dismounted and walked towards Longyang Cao, and the two friends were also a little curious and followed.
Li Xuan picked off the Longyang grass, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"This ...... Is it Longyang grass?" Zhao Xuan'er was a little surprised, although she seemed to be asking Li Xuan, she was already sure that she was not mistaken.
"Xuan'er, you know this thing?"
Li Xuan was puzzled, he had read it in a pharmacopoeia before, and it was roughly the same as the one drawn in it, but he was not very sure, after all, he was not deeply involved in this aspect, but he didn't expect Zhao Xuan'er to know it, and it seemed that he was still very sure.
"Well, Longyang grass, its medicinal properties are yang, pungent taste, evergreen in all seasons, blooming in autumn, generally growing in a sunny place, its flowers have the effect of relaxing muscles and strengthening bones, but its leaves are highly poisonous, taking one can be disabled, two pieces will be broken and die. Xuan, why are you picking this thing? Hurry up and throw it away, it's only spring now, and it hasn't bloomed yet. Zhao Xuan'er thought that Li Xuan didn't understand this herb, because this thing is now a poison, which can only harm people and has no other effect.
"Oh? Xuan'er is so deeply involved in the way of herbal medicine? A Longyang grass, all the characteristics have been cleared by you, do you know anything else?" Li Xuan'er asked excitedly after a sigh.
"Of course, I have read some of the pharmacopoeias and plant catalogs collected at home, and even some spiritual roots, I know how much I know!" Zhao Xuan'er replied proudly, and her face was full of 'I'm amazing, right?
"Really! It's amazing! I really picked up a treasure, I didn't expect my daughter-in-law to be an expert in this area!" Li Xuan said excitedly, he really admired. In the future, if there are herbs you don't know, you can know it by asking your daughter-in-law directly, which is convenient and does not cause people to wonder.
"That's, and don't look at who I am. Zhao Xuan'er tilted her chin slightly, the smug look on her face was undisguised, and she was already immune to the flirting in Li Xuan's words. You know, she wasn't like this before, she used to be dignified, quiet, and always a fan of everyone's girlfriends, Li Xuan's casual words can make her blush.
What is it like now...... It seems that he was influenced by Li Xuan's brothers and taught badly......
Li Xuan and Wang Xiaopang glanced at each other, both slightly surprised, and then nodded to each other.
"I'll wait to worship!" The two spoke out neatly, and even bent over neatly with fists, I have to say that they have been together for more than ten years, and the two have an extremely tacit understanding, and with one look, they can know what the other party wants to do.
"Hahaha!" The two of them made Zhao Xuan'er laugh, and with them, she was really easy to be amused.
"Okay, this thing is useless, just throw it away. Zhao Xuan'er said to Li Xuan with a smile on her face.
Li Xuan looked at the Longyang grass in his hand, his eyes squinted at the two of them again, and threw it on the ground with a hum.
"Let's go, let's go, according to the map, the Qingxu Sect is not far away. Li Xuan said happily, as if he didn't care about the Longyang grass on the ground.
The two nodded, didn't think much about it, turned around and walked down the mound, Li Xuan's footsteps remained the same, but when passing by the position of Longyang grass, the toes hooked and raised, and the Longyang grass under his feet appeared in his hand, he calmly put it in his arms, everything flowed smoothly, extremely natural, and the two of them naturally couldn't see the slightest.
He didn't do this because he didn't distrust, he just let them know that it was not easy to explain, and even if he did, they would be worried, after all, this was poison, and in Zhao Xuan'er's impression, it was useless except to harm others, not to mention that he was eating it himself, for them this was self-harm and suicide. However, Li Xuan was planning to try, he was already planning to preliminarily cultivate the True Dragon Body Refining Method, and the Great Perfection of the Body Forging Realm and the baptism medicinal bath of rebirth gave him confidence and courage.
Night.
The three of them found a small cave, lit a fire, and after a brief meal of some game, they fell asleep, after all, it was very tiring to bump on horseback all day. Zhao Xuan'er slept in the cave, and Li Xuan and Wang Xiaopang each leaned on both sides of the cave entrance and fell asleep with their eyes closed.
After about an hour, Li Xuan opened his eyes, stood up gently, picked up the wooden block prepared next to him and threw it into the fire.
The fat man at the entrance of the cave leaned sideways and inadvertently moved in the direction of the fire, which was a sign of coldness. When the human body is asleep, the body temperature will drop, and when you are awake, you don't feel anything, and when you don't move, you will feel cold, especially now that it is still an early spring night, the air is humid, and a little cold, so the body temperature drops faster.
Li Xuan smiled silently, this cave is too small, it can't be that the three of them sleep in the cave, it's too close to Zhao Xuan'er. He tiptoed to pick up his burden and took out two green robes from his bag, one to cover the fat man, and the other to help Xuan'er cover.
After doing this, he sat alone by the fire, took out the dragon yang grass from his arms, and looked a little engrossed, as if thinking about something.
After a while, Li Xuan took a deep breath and plucked a leaf from the Longyang grass, about the size of a little thumb. It's hard to imagine that just such a small leaf can abolish people's meridians!
Li Xuan looked at this leaf, and then carefully tore off a corner from this small leaf, that is, about a third, and put this torn corner into his mouth. He's careful, he's trying, you can't be careless about this kind of thing.
This small section of the leaf couldn't be chewed at all, it was too small, and it was swallowed by Li Xuan directly.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but after a few minutes, Li Xuan's eyes widened.
He only felt that the meridians of his whole body were shaking, as if they were contracting, and as if they were stretching, the pain was unbearable, as if someone was pulling his meridians in his body, he felt that the meridians were about to break, Li Xuan trembled all over, convulsed, and it was difficult to even move his fingers, so he could only lie on the ground and spasm, but he didn't make a sound, afraid that the two of them would worry about him.
He was like a sheep epileptic patient, clenching his teeth, convulsing violently, biting his lips so much that blood flowed, he saw that the pulse on his wrist was beating violently, as if it was filled with worms, drilling everywhere, he could only see his arms, but he knew that the meridians of his whole body were like this.
I don't know how long it took, Li Xuan felt as if a century had passed, until a glimmer of light appeared in the sky outside the cave, Li Xuan moved his index finger with difficulty, and then let go of the teeth that had been clenched, gasped violently, and survived!!
He felt very hot all over his body now, but he was very comfortable, but he felt very tired, much more tired than after a period of cultivation, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and then he fell asleep completely.
A ray of light shot into the cave and shone on the top of Li Xuan's head, and he gently opened his eyelids, and then squinted again. At this moment, a jade hand blocked the light for her, and Li Xuan saw Zhao Xuan'er along his arm, and he saw that Zhao Xuan'er was a little anxious.
"Xuan, have you eaten Longyang grass?" Zhao Xuan'er asked, the worry in her eyes was clearly visible, and there was still a little anger on her face.
"I said buddy, are you hurting yourself, or are you going to die?" the fat man asked as he stared at him, without the slightest joke on his face, and was very serious.
Li Xuan sighed, but still let them know, he didn't expect this dragon yang grass to be so violent. He didn't answer the questions of the two, just got up and clenched his fists, a little surprised, the meridians were not damaged in the slightest, he felt his pulse, and the beating was very powerful.
"It works!" he was pleasantly surprised by a glint in his eyes.
"I accidentally got a method of refining the body, and I need to use this dragon yang grass, I tried it last night and found it very effective. I'm fine now, don't worry. Li Xuan intends to tell the truth.
"How is this possible, Longyang grass is a poison, where can it still have this effect. Zhao Xuan'er exclaimed, she didn't quite believe Li Xuan's explanation.
"I know it's poison, and I've only eaten a third of a leaf. Li Xuan's eyes were sharp, and he picked up a fingernail-sized dragon yang leaf from the ground, and there was indeed a corner missing from it, which also proved that what Li Xuan said was true.
"The flowers of Longyang grass can play a role in strengthening the meridians, but the medicinal properties are mild, maybe its leaves can also be, but it is more violent, and ordinary people can't stand it, which is the reason for the damage to the meridians. Li Xuan said his guess.
Zhao Xuan'er felt that it seemed to make sense, but she still didn't believe it, he was afraid that something would happen to Li Xuan, she got up in the morning and was startled, and saw Li Xuan lying on the ground, unable to wake up, and there were obvious blood stains on her lips, which were bitten by herself, but after a closer look, Li Xuan had no other injuries, just in a coma, and when she saw Longyang grass, she was really scared, and hurriedly woke up the fat man, and then checked the pulse, and found that the pulse was strong and powerful, so she breathed a sigh of relief and waited for Li Xuan to wake up.
Li Xuan rolled his eyes, then took Zhao Xuan'er's jade hand and put it on his pulse.
"Have you ever seen someone with such a strong pulse, as if something was wrong?"
Zhao Xuan'er nodded, secretly surprised, indeed as Li Xuan said, the pulse is so powerful that it is not like words, you don't need to feel it at all, you can clearly know it with your hand.
"Fatty, your physique is still poor, when you are stronger in the future, I will teach you this method of refining the body, I only tried it a little bit last night, and I almost couldn't slow down, but I believe it will get better and better, I will also be careful, you don't have to worry." ”
Wang Xiaopang nodded, a little scared, after all, Li Xuan said that he almost couldn't slow down, it was definitely uncomfortable, but he was also a little looking forward to it. Li Xuan didn't say anything about Zhao Xuan'er, naturally he didn't want her to suffer like this.
Seeing Zhao Xuan'er's somewhat distressed appearance, Li Xuan smiled and tightened her hand.
"Trust me! ”
