Chapter 20: Strangeness
"The fragrance of wood flowers?" Tianlang's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, revealing a different color: "It makes people fall into confusion until they die, but it has a bit of meaning." β
The killer-born Sky Wolf has always been keen to study various methods of killing, and when he suddenly heard such a strange tree, his heart suddenly rose a little interested.
"Hey, your eyes are so bright, you look like you don't care about anything, and you are so interested when you hear such a thing. Mu Shuang looked at the sudden brightness of the wolf's gaze, and suddenly said a little speechless.
"I ......" Sky Wolf was speechless for a moment, regained his calm expression, and asked, "Since the Forest of Confusion is so dangerous, then why do you say that it is a treasure land?"
Mu Shuang opened his mouth and took a bite on an apple, leaving a neat row of notches, and said:
"The Forest of Confusion confuses people's minds, but it does not affect the growth of medicinal herbs, because no one has set foot on it, and there are countless elixirs in the Forest of Confusion, so it has become a treasure land.
Although they know that it is dangerous, there are still many people who try their best to search for elixirs, and every year many disciples die in the Forest of Confusion because of this reason. β
"Since you know that it is dangerous, those disciples will definitely not go to death in Pingpai, I'm afraid there is also cause and effect in this, is it related to this Qingxin Leaf?"
Sky Wolf was keenly aware of the contradictions in Mu Shuang's words, his mind moved slightly, and he had already guessed a few points.
Mu Shuang didn't expect the heavenly wolf to think of the connection at once, and he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then nodded and explained:
"You're right, there are so many rich cultivation resources hidden in the Forest of Confusion, and there have been disciples in the past who have put their minds into this Forest of Confusion, in order to enter it, Shiyan has used various methods, and the most successful of them is this Pure Heart Leaf. β
As he spoke, Mu Shuang's gaze glanced at the green leaf in the hand of the heavenly wolf, and continued:
"Putting the heart leaf in your mouth purifies the air and resists the confusion of the fragrance of wood flowers.
It's just that this Pure Heart Leaf has always been scarce, and it takes at least a few dozen pieces to gain something, so there are not many disciples who can have the opportunity to enter the Forest of Confusion. β
"But even if you grasp the secret of the Pure Heart Leaf, half of the people who enter each year still stay in the Forest of Confusion forever, so even today, it is still a Jedi. As if to emphasize the danger of the Confused Forest, Mu Shuang added, "With the Pure Heart Leaf, half of the people can't get out?" Heavenly Wolf is eyes flashed, and he groaned in his heart: "It seems that in this Confused Forest, there are not only those incense from the wood, there must be other unknown dangers." β
"Thinking that the He brothers have so many pure heart leaves on their bodies, they must be going to enter the Forest of Confusion, but they didn't expect to meet me, just right, I will go on their behalf!"
Now that the Heavenly Wolf Cultivation has fallen, what is most lacking is the medicinal herb elixir that enhances spiritual power, and there are dozens of pure heart leaves in his hand, so he naturally will not let go of such a treasure land as the Forest of Confusion, and he has already decided in his heart that he must go to the Forest of Confusion to take a trip.
And if you want to enter the Confused Forest, the more you know, the better, so the wolf's eyes flashed, and he continued to ask, "Are there any other peculiarities in the Confused Forest?"
"How do I know, I haven't been there, Master never allowed me to go near the Forest of Confusion. Mu Shuang spread his hands helplessly, and then his eyes flashed, swept the gauze on the wolf's chest, and suddenly smiled:
"You now, don't think about the Confused Forest, such a serious injury, I don't know when it will heal, come, I'll help you change the dressing." β
As he spoke, Mu Shuang gently pulled the hem of his skirt, knelt in front of the wolf, stretched out his hands, and began to untie the gauze bandaged on the wolf's chest.
Seeing this, the sky wolf was stunned, and a feeling that he had never felt before instantly flowed through his body, and he subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to stop it.
βbiedongγ Mu Shuang frowned suddenly, slapped off the palm of the wolf, and concentrated on the work in his hands.
The palm of the wolf was slapped down by Mu Shuang, and he suddenly froze in the air, breathing in the faint fragrance sent into his nose, his expression was full of strangeness, and he was extremely uncomfortable.
The killer-born wolf, since childhood, has been completely independent, no matter how many injuries he has suffered, he gritted his teeth alone and endured it, like an arrogant lone wolf, hiding in a dark corner, licking his wounds alone, and never feeling the care of others.
At this time, he looked down at Mu Shuang's dexterous hands, moved in front of his chest, untied the gauze, took out the medicine bottle, and evenly applied a light yellow powder to the wound on his chest.
Especially looking at Mu Shuang's slightly frowning brow after seeing his wound, he obviously didn't want to face this bloody wound.
However, although Mu Shuang's brows furrowed, he was still carefully bandaged, without the slightest sloppiness, even more carefully than he handled it himself.
Sky Wolf suddenly felt a warm current, rising from his heart that had been cold for ten years, and instantly flowing all over his body, even the eternal cold indifference in his eyes gradually melted, and the eyes that looked at Mu Shuang were confused, and the brilliance flashed.
The sky wolf was kidnapped by the Rakshasa Gate since he was a child and became a cold-blooded killer, and the only thing he experienced in the past ten years was cold-blooded and ruthless, fighting and killing. For the care and thoughtfulness between people, he has ever felt a little bit.
At this time, being carefully cared for by Mu Shuang, it was suddenly like a ray of sunshine, shining into the eternal dark and desolate corner, the warm spring rain sprinkled on the dry and cracked desolate earth, like a burning warm flame, which suddenly dissolved the long-frozen cold heart of the wolf. The feeling in my heart is difficult for outsiders to understand.
Mu Shuang finished bandaging the wound of the wolf, let out a long sigh of relief, raised his head, but just met the strange gaze of the wolf, he was stunned, and then his face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "Why are you looking at me like this." β
Hearing this, the heavenly wolf suddenly came back to his senses, coughed, hurriedly restrained his somewhat gaffe expression, regained his calm and indifference, his eyes swept towards Mu Shuang, there was a faint complication, and said lightly: "xiexie." β
After speaking, the wolf swallowed a pill, closed his eyes directly, and began to meditate to heal his wounds, but his heart could not be calm for a long time, and he tossed for a long time, and it took several times the usual time to finally settle down.
And Mu Shuang looked at the sky wolf directly into the meditation, and immediately frowned slightly, and muttered in a low voice: "One xiexie is over, this person, it's really ......"
However, although he said so, Mu Shuang's heart somehow intuitively sensed that Sky Wolf's xiexie didn't seem to be so simple, mixed with a strange emotion.
Thinking like this, Mu Shuang's beauty was slightly raised, and he sat on the side and secretly looked at the wolf, muttering in his heart:
"This Wang Ping is really strange, he speaks straightforwardly, simply and directly, he doesn't seem to be good at communicating with people, and he has always been indifferent and cold, as if his heart is covered with a layer of ice......"
"What did he go through in his life, and what kind of experience made him have such a character?"
Although he couldn't figure out what the wolf had experienced, Mu Shuang intuitively felt that the wolf experience was probably a lot of bitterness. Looking at the sky wolf, his gaze couldn't help but gradually change, and he felt a little more inexplicably sympathetic.
The moonlight outside the cave shone obliquely into the cave, like a dreamy silver veil, slowly wrapping around Mu Shuang's body, lining Mu Shuang ethereal, supporting his cheeks with one hand, looking at the wolf in the meditation, stunned.
......
Early the next morning, the sky wolf opened his eyes from the meditation, but he didn't see Mu Shuang's figure, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.
Grabbing two fruits on the ground to satisfy his hunger, the wolf continued to sit cross-legged and began to heal.
As a killer, the wolf of heaven, no matter what the situation, has a sense of crisis all the time, and once he is injured, he must cultivate immediately. Only by keeping your body at its peak at all times can you have peace of mind and cope with all kinds of changes.
The sky wolf's eyes flashed, and he took out a white lotus seed that was as warm as jade from the storage bag, feeling the vigorous spiritual power in it, his eyes showed a hint of brilliance, and he stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.
This divine lotus is a rare elixir, full of spirituality, and the divine lotus seed is a spiritual essence, and its medicinal power is far superior to that of ordinary century-old medicines.
As soon as he entered the mouth, without refining, it turned into a stream of pure spiritual power and flowed into the belly of the wolf, scattering into the limbs and hundreds of corpses along the meridians.
The wolf suddenly felt a warm current flowing through his body, and his whole body was comfortable, and he hurriedly collected his mind and began to guide this warm current, using this pure medicinal power to heal his injuries.
Time passed in the meditation, I don't know how long it took, after the wolf completely absorbed the medicinal power of this divine lotus seed, he felt that the injuries all over his body had greatly improved, and after refining a few divine lotus seeds, he could basically recover.
Secretly praising the extraordinary medicinal power of the Divine Lotus Seed in his heart, the wolf woke up from his meditation, slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly stared.
Outside the entrance of the cave, a plain white figure is slim and elegant, facing the sun, the skirt flutters under the blowing of the mountain wind, the head is full of green silk slightly raised, and the tips of the hair are shining under the sun, ethereal and elegant.
As if sensing that the wolf woke up, Mu Shuang turned around slightly, looked at the cave, and smiled at the wolf: "You woke up, how are you healing?"
"It's a little better, and it shouldn't be a big deal in a few days. The wolf groaned slightly, and said lightly.
"It doesn't matter, take your time and always heal, the most important thing to heal is gradual, don't be greedy. Mu Shuang said as he walked into the cave, took out a crystal jade box, and handed it to the wolf.
"This is ......" Sky Wolf suddenly frowned slightly, looked at the jade box in front of him, showed a puzzled look, and looked at Mu Shuang.
Looking at the puzzled expression of the Heavenly Wolf, Mu Shuang's eyes suddenly showed a hint of triumph, and he shook the jade box gently in front of the Heavenly Wolf's eyes, and said proudly: "This is the Linghuang Pill, the best elixir for healing, with it, your injuries will not be able to recover in a few days." β
The sky wolf's eyes flashed suddenly, his face showed a different color, and he hesitated: "What are you...... Want to give it to me?"
"Of course it's for you, and I'm not injured myself, this is a good thing, I begged an uncle for a long time to get it. Mu Shuang laughed softly and put the jade box in his hand in front of the wolf.
Sky Wolf looked at the jade box in front of him, the light flashed in his eyes, and through a layer of jade box, he could feel the vigorous spiritual power sealed in it, and he didn't doubt Mu Shuang's words at all, this was definitely a healing elixir, extremely precious.
But the Heavenly Wolf didn't reach out to take it, but instead raised his head, looked at Mu Shuang, and asked a little complicatedly: "Such a precious elixir, you want to give it to me?"
"I don't know, I just feel that you are a special person, and I want you to get better quickly. Mu Shuang's eyes flashed slightly, and after thinking for a while, he didn't seem to know what he was doing this for. His eyes flashed, and he said: "Why, it's not okay to give you such a big bargain?" Don't forget it, I'll give it to others, and I'll rush to ask for it." β
As he spoke, Mu Shuang reached out and grabbed the jade box, but when he saw the wolf silently watching him grasp the jade box, his face was calm, without the slightest expression, he suddenly stopped, and said with some disgust:
"You're really, can't you even make a joke?"
Looking at Mu Shuang's disgusted expression, Sky Wolf's expression suddenly moved, he smiled faintly, reached out and grabbed the jade box in front of him, and chuckled at Mu Shuang: "Senior Sister Xiexie." β
"Will you still laugh?" Looking at the faint smile on the wolf's face, Mu Shuang suddenly showed a look of surprise, and then raised his hand nonchalantly, and said, "Thank you, who made me your senior sister." β
Mu Shuang was about to speak, but at this moment, a string of copper bells tied around Mu Shuang's waist suddenly rang.
Mu Shuang was stunned at first, then showed a look of surprise, and said in surprise: "It's Senior Brother, Senior Brother is back, and he's looking for me." β
Seeing this scene, the smile on the wolf's face gradually faded and returned to calm, but a trace of inexplicable loss flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly: "Senior Brother Qingyang is back, are you leaving?"
"Yes, Senior Brother is back, and within a thousand miles, he is calling me to make peace with him. As he spoke, Mu Shuang looked at the sky wolf and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Wang Ping, if you use Linghuang Pill to heal your injuries, you will definitely be able to heal within three days, and I am also relieved."
As long as you don't go to those dangerous places, with your strength, there is no problem with hunting in the mountains. β
As he was talking, Mu Shuang's expression suddenly changed, and he lost his voice: "No, why is this bell so urgent?
Speaking of this, a little anxious suddenly appeared on Mu Shuang's face, and he said to the heavenly wolf: "Senior brother seems to be in trouble, I will go over to meet him immediately, and I can't take care of you anymore." β
"Since you have something, then go ahead, I'm fine?" Sky Wolf's eyes flashed, and he said lightly.
"Well, then I'll go first, you take care of yourself. Mu Shuang said to the wolf, turned around and summoned a white flying sword, stepped on both feet, and went away at great speed.
The heavenly wolf walked to the entrance of the cave and watched Mu Shuang's figure disappear into the distant sky, his right hand tightly holding the jade box containing the Linghuang Pill, and the light in his eyes flashed......
