Chapter 7: On the verge of death
Mu Fan and Xiao Wan walked in the forest, and at this time they had already stepped into the middle of the dense forest. In this part of the area, there are often some third- and fourth-order spirit beasts, and occasionally a few higher-order ones will appear.
The rules of this exercise are relatively fair, and weak monks don't need to find particularly good medicinal herbs, such as Mu Fan and Xiao Wan, as long as they find two third-grade medicinal herbs each.
It was difficult for the two of them to find medicinal materials, and both of them were familiar with the medical saint outer pill technique. The book of Dan records the medicinal properties and growing environment of various medicinal herbs. As long as you find an environment similar to the one in the book, it is not difficult to find the corresponding elixir.
Combined with what Danshu said, he set the goal of the wide-ribbed vine. This herb is not uncommon, it is mild and single, and it is often used to make healing pills.
The more precious the medicinal herbs, the more likely they are to be accompanied by spirit beasts, most of them have discovered some kind of precious medicinal herbs by chance, and then stay next to the medicinal herbs, waiting for the medicinal herbs to mature.
Spirit beasts generally guard the realm-breaking medicinal materials, and there are very few that guard the healing medicinal materials. They have eaten medicinal herbs that are strong in medicinal properties, and they can use the power of medicinal herbs to improve their strength. Healing herbs can't make them stronger, so there are few spirit beasts to protect them.
As long as he found a place to grow, he and Xiao Wan's tasks were directly completed.
For the sake of safety and convenience, Mu Fan decided to go and pick the broad-ribbed vines. Although he had the strength to pick higher-grade medicinal herbs, he didn't need to trouble himself at all, and even put himself and Xiao Wan in danger.
The two are inseparable, searching for medicinal herbs in the middle of the jungle together.
After searching for most of the day, they finally found a cliff. The cliff is not high, and there is a small waterfall left from the top of the cliff and poured down the cliff.
The wide-ribbed vine prefers a cold and humid environment, and the shady side of the cliff has little sunlight to reach, which meets the colder conditions, and there is a waterfall here, which is very suitable for the growth of the broad-ribbed vine.
The two walked under the waterfall, where the cold of early spring was particularly deep.
He walked under the waterhole formed by the waterfall and found a lot of rattan. They are not all broad-tendoned vines, the old stems of broad-tendoned vines are fat, the epidermis is brown, and the leaf marks on them are obvious. Only a small fraction of the many rattans here are broad-ribbed rattans, but they are enough for two people.
Xiao Wan summoned the flying sword and cut through many useless rattans.
When Mu Fan saw it, he also slashed together.
was chopping, Xiao Wan's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air and remained motionless. She looked puzzled, and then hurriedly said to Mu Fan: "Young Master, retreat!" ”
Mu Fan turned his face to face Xiao Wan and saw Xiao Wan's nervous expression. Then I saw a hand stretched out from under the rattan, and the fingers of the sword stabbed at Xiao Wan's neck.
For a moment, he was like an ant on a hot pot, and his whole person was extremely nervous. Because the speed of that hand was so fast, that he didn't have time to protect Xiao Wan by all means.
The sword finger stopped firmly on Xiao Wan's white neck, and then hammered down softly. A man with loose hair fell to the ground, in utter disarray.
Xiao Wan's fair neck was stained with red, the red was so bewitching, so dazzling.
Just because the finger didn't fall on her neck doesn't mean she's not hurt. The sharp edge of the man's fingertips on the ground pierced her neck, leaving an extremely small wound.
The graceful posture is no longer agile, and he is unable to collapse on the ground.
Mu Fan hurriedly crawled to Xiao Wan's side and used his hands to plug the wound that kept spurting blood outward. His eyes were red, his body was trembling, and he was shivering.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop the small wound on Xiaowan's neck after all. Struggling on the brink of life and death for a long time, he could see at a glance that it was a fatal injury.
Xiao Wan breathed hard, as if she was very tired. The sword qi destroyed her trachea, and with every breath she breathed, a large amount of blood flowed out of her neck, and some blood spurted out of her mouth and nose.
She tried to speak, but a large amount of blood spurted from her mouth and nose, and there was only a terrible grunt.
Mu Fan trembled and took out the best healing pill in the storage ring, and he put the eight-grade high-grade pill in Xiao Wan's mouth.
Xiao Wan looked at him with a smile and regret in her eyes. Her mouth was still bleeding outward, and she couldn't swallow the pill at all.
Mu Fan hurriedly crushed the bloody pill, and the thick life power overflowed outward, and the radius was full of strange fragrance.
He sprinkled the powder onto her wound, but the remnants of the sword qi at the wound prevented the pill from taking effect. If this continues, Xiaowan will definitely die.
"You come out for me!" Mu Fan tore the green snake robe on his body, and he could only pin his hopes on the green jiao.
The green snake robe didn't react at all, as if it was dead.
Xiao Wan tried her best to grab Mu Fan's hand and tried to smile, as if there were thousands of words in her eyes.
Mu Fan held the back of her head, trying to calm herself, and her trembling body and twitching corners of her mouth exposed his heart.
It all happened so suddenly and without warning.
Xiao Wan's face was covered with blood, but her eyes and forehead were still white. She looked at the young master quietly, and saw her reflection in the young master's eyes.
Mu Fan's face twitched uncontrollably, and he tried to put on a happy expression, he knew that she must want to see this scene.
"Don't give up, you owe me...... 500 years of wages! He stroked Xiaowan's cheek, and his hands were covered with blood.
Xiao Wan blinked, recalling the incident when she broke things in the past, and the young master carried the black pot for her. Before I knew it, I owed the young master five hundred years of wages, and I was afraid that there was no way to pay it back.
Mu Fan's tears dripped from the tip of her nose to her face, she raised her hand to wipe away the tears for the young master, lifted it into the air and slid weakly to the ground.
He understood what she meant, so he reached out and took her hand, put her hand on his face, and wiped away tears for himself.
Xiao Wan still cried, she didn't leave the world so early, leaving the young master. She has too many regrets, she didn't see the Mu family return to Yungang, and she didn't see her grandfather again......
Mu Fan put his head on her forehead and helped her kiss away tears.
Xiao Wan's gradually cooler body temperature suddenly rose a little, her pupils turned golden little by little, and the blood flowing out also turned golden.
Mu Fan noticed the changes that had occurred in her body, and immediately remembered that Xiao Wan still had Da Wan living in her body.
The powerful breath of life suddenly erupted, and in one fell swoop, it dispersed the sword qi that was entrenched in the wound on Xiao Wan's neck. The wound healed quickly and quickly with the naked eye, and it didn't take long for it to be intact.
When Xiao Wan was injured, Da Wan took the opportunity to try Mu Fan.
She paid attention to Mu Fan's mood changes throughout the whole process, and now she could confirm that Mu Fan was a person worthy of entrusting him for life.
"You're fine, treat Xiaowan well." There was a tenderness in Da Wan's cold words.
The gold slowly faded, and that cute little Wan returned.
Mu Fan excitedly hugged Xiaowan with his hand, as if he was afraid that she would slip away again.
"I thought I was going to die." Xiao Wan's soft voice sounded in his ears.
"Good thing you're not dead." Mu Fan stared at the person who had done something to Xiao Wan out of the corner of his eye, he was ready to "entertain" this person and send this person to the king of Hades.
