Chapter Ninety-Six: The Line Between Life and Death

Bai Yunqian tried to stabilize his body and no longer swayed.

Looking at the night withering, my heart was happy and sour.

In the past, when her father was there, he often took her to look for medicinal herbs everywhere, and traveled everywhere, and some medicinal materials were hard to find, and it was my father's regret that I couldn't see the form when they were grown.

Night withering is one of them.

So tonight is not just for Shen Rumo, but also for my father.

Bai Yunqian meditated in his heart: Daddy, have you seen it? I've grown my skills, I'll wait here for the night to bloom, and I'll draw its flowers and burn them for you when I go back, and you can take a good look at them.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he suddenly smelled a fishy smell.

She turned her head to look around, and there was nothing but a few weeds growing on the cliff face.

Slowly looking up, I suddenly found that there seemed to be a big rock on the edge of the cliff.

Hey? No, when I came down just now, the cliff wasn't shaped like this, wait!

How is this stone ...... Moved?

Bai Yun's eyes widened, a chill crept up his back, and cold sweat broke out instantly.

A behemoth was looking down at her, and his eyes were big and bright, still striking in the night.

Is that...... A python!

Bai Yunqian's head buzzed, and he suddenly remembered that when he traveled before, he heard some old people say: Many mountain treasures are spiritual, and they are all guarded by people.

I think this giant python is in charge of guarding the night of Kurong.

Bai Yun's shallow heart was about to jump out of his mouth, and he held the rope tightly with both hands, and the rope was pitifully weak compared to the body of the giant python at this time.

Fortunately, the python didn't attack her immediately, and he didn't know what he was thinking, just stared at her condescendingly.

She didn't dare to move, desperately trying to stabilize her body, every muscle in her body was straining, and her toes were a little numb.

Move your eyes slightly, take a look at the night withering, the buds are bigger than just now, the tips have been slightly opened, and it is estimated that it will not take long to bloom.

Bai Yunqian felt that the courage of her two lives had been spent here, and she made up her mind that she must get the night withering glory today.

One man and one python confront each other on a cliff in the middle of the night......

War King's Mansion.

Shen Rumo was doing a drill in front of the sand table in the study, except for reading books and drawing border defense maps, this was his only pastime.

I don't know why, I can't concentrate tonight, and I always feel messed up in my heart.

Before he knew it, the time had passed, and he turned his head to look at the incense burner, the aroma was curling, and the taste had changed a little.

The incense in the incense burner changes every few days, which is the medicinal fragrance brought by Bai Yunqian.

Made for him.

He went to the incense burner, took a deep breath, and just as he steadied himself, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.

"Lord Wang! Thirteen is back! ”

It's the voice of the wind one.

Shen Rumo frowned slightly: "Come in!" ”

Feng pushed the door open, followed by a woman in a night suit.

"Lord Wang," she saluted, looking up.

It was the white peony.

"How did you get back? But what happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion? ”

"Miss went out in the afternoon, and she hasn't returned until now, and her subordinates are really relieved, so I came to tell you."

Shen Rumo's eyes shrank suddenly: "You haven't returned yet?" What did she say when she went out? ”

"I just said that I would go out once, go and come back quickly, let my subordinates look at the Prime Minister's Mansion, staring at the second room and the maid ring in the courtyard, and didn't say anything else."

"But......" Bai Shao hesitated, "Miss changed her outfit and took a lot of things, and her subordinates looked at it, it didn't look like she was going somewhere in the capital." ”

Now Bai Shao is also so annoyed that she should have asked more if she knew it, instead of being helpless like now.

Shen Rumo's face was dark, and he thought for a while: "Prepare the car!" Go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion. ”

"Yes!"

The county lord of Xinyao had fallen asleep and was in a daze, when the mother-in-law who was keeping vigil outside woke her up.

She was very unhappy: "What are you doing? I have to say something now! ”

"County Lord, the Lord of War is here."

"Huh?" The county lord of Xin Yao was suddenly excited, and immediately sobered up, "Where are the people?" ”

"It's in the antechamber."

When the county lord of Xin Yao hurried to the front hall, he felt that something was not right, and his heart was a little nervous when he looked at Shen Rumo, who was covered in cold air.

"Cousin? It's so late, why are you here, what's the matter? ”

"What did you say when you went to see Yun Qian today?"

"Huh? I just said what you asked me to say, that is, the Gu family's affairs, and the things that Rou Concubine might trouble her. ”

"What about the others? Anything else? Think about it. "Shen Rumo's eyes are as dark as night," she went out in the afternoon and has not returned home until now. ”

The county lord of Xin Yao was also a little stunned, swallowed his saliva, and thought carefully: "It's not ...... Ah, she gave me a small cloth bag, and a bag of jasmine tea, I thought it was very good, so I asked her if she knew about Ye Kurong, she said yes, and then they talked a few words about this, and something else, just, gone. ”

"She'......" Lord Xinyao's face turned pale, "It can't be...... Are you looking for Nightshade? ”

"What's that?" Shen Rumo asked.

"It's a rare flower, and I've heard that there is one on the mountain outside the city, and it's extremely beautiful and precious......"

The more the county lord of Xin Yao said, the more he felt unconfident, and felt that it was very possible.

"What mountain outside the city?"

"Just the ...... fifty miles away"

"Fengyi, let's go!"

Shen Rumo left after speaking, and the county lord of Xin Yao followed: "Cousin, I'm going too!" ”

……

The night withered finally bloomed.

Bai Yunqian felt that he had finally waited in vain!

This flower is really very beautiful, the petals are crystal like jade, the fragrance of the stamens is intoxicating, the fragrance of the fragrance is trembling, and the beauty is unreal.

Bai Yunqian's heart was beating wildly, the corner of his eye swept the giant python, and he took out the prepared bottle with one hand to catch the few condensations.

She forgot to breathe, her teeth clenched at her flying hair, her fingers flicking the petals quickly and steadily.

The "click" sound is faint, and the flower dew falls into the bottle!

She quickly closed the bottle with quick eyes, and at the same time, the giant python that had been staring at her finally moved!

The huge body moved like lightning, and when it writhed, it opened its bloody mouth, the fishy smell rushed along the night wind, and the sharp fangs were like two sharp knives, flashing with a faint cold light in the dark night.

Almost instinctively, Bai Yunqian twisted her body hard and narrowly escaped the python's attack, but she also lost her balance and clung to the rope and floated in the air.

The python was obviously more familiar with the terrain and had more advantages than her, but as soon as she turned around, she pounced on her again.

She didn't think much about it, but when she saw a tree sticking out not far away, she swung with all her strength, swung to the edge of the tree, and stepped on her toes, finally relieving herself.

However, as soon as he stood firm, the giant python's attack came again, and the big mouth "clicked" and bit hard, directly biting the tree off!

The crown of the tree fell, silently, and Bai Yunqian broke out in a cold sweat.

The python's eyes were like lamps, and her big mouth and fangs were close at hand, and she screamed in her heart.

Now, it's over.

But she suddenly found that the giant python had deliberately avoided the three night withered trees when they attacked her these times.

As soon as she gritted her teeth, her body swayed flexibly, and she also let it go, anyway, if she continued like this, she would wait for death, so it was better to fight.

She swung up, looked at a sharp rock, and wanted to land there, but a gust of night wind came, and she did not settle down, and her leg hit the stone, and there was a piercing pain in her heart.

It was dark in front of her, and she almost let go, but she forced her breath and fell next to Ye Kurong again.

This flower is in full bloom, it is the most beautiful and best time, but unfortunately, she can't care about appreciating it.

Seeing that she landed next to Ye Kurong again, the giant python really slowed down its attack, but kept spitting out the letter.

She turned her heart sideways, took the opportunity to draw out her short sword, and with a wave of her hand, she dug down even the loose soil, and quickly opened the space of the relics with her mind and threw it directly.

When the giant python saw that the night withered glory disappeared in the blink of an eye, it instantly became angry, its mouth opened even bigger, and it rushed straight to Baiyunqian!
