Chapter 31: The Red Mist Fills the Blood
Fu Ning carried the ghost rope gun and went all the way down Danshan.
On the way, it can be regarded as attracting everyone's attention.
By the time I got back to my cabin, it was already afternoon.
The room was small, so the Oni Gun could only rest half in the room and half out of the window.
The sharp spear head pointed obliquely at the black mountain opposite, looking somewhat domineering.
After that, Fu Ning still meditated as usual.
He didn't open his eyes until the night darkened.
Half a day has passed, but the ghost suo big gun in front of him is still as strong as ever, where is the meaning of half weakness.
"Good guy, I feel that this ghost claw locust is more suitable for refining medicine."
Fu Ning smashed his mouth, but there was some concern in his eyes.
There are a lot of cliffs on Dan Mountain, and he doesn't have a flying magic weapon, so when collecting medicine, he will inevitably encounter danger.
If there is this ghost rope by his side, he may be able to save his life at a critical moment.
"Hopefully it will soften tomorrow."
The idle window is dim, and the lonely night is eternal.
After a day of tiredness, Fu Ning fell asleep deeply.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already early the next morning.
Fu Ning yawned and couldn't help but look towards the bed.
"Huh!"
I saw that the ghost rope spear, which was as hard as T last night, has become like noodles at this moment.
"Amazing!"
"It's really turned back into a ghost!"
It's really like what Senior Sister Gan Lan said, it will be soft after a day and a night.
Don't look at the time before it, majestic and high-spirited.
But now, it's like a useless little paddle dish.
Fu Ning wrapped it into a circle and coiled it directly around his waist.
"Oh, that's it."
Then he simply used some dry food, and then took the medicine collection tools and pushed the door out.
Danshan is very large, occupying one-third of the main island of Lingao Island.
Fu Ning had already thought about it, and started looking for it from the closest location to the foot of the mountain.
According to the map marking, there is a 'Red Mist Valley' at the foot of Danshan.
Here, the water on the mountain forms a trickle, meets the fire veins underground, and produces a perennial mist, and then under the reflection of the fire maple that fills the mountain, the entire valley is thickened.
Although there is no sunlight in the valley all year round, the aura is pervasive, and there are many medicinal herbs, the most common of which is called 'blood moss', and the price in the medicine garden is not low.
Fu Ning came to the 'Red Mist Valley' for the first time.
After really stepping into the red mist, he understood the reason why the disciples of Danshan didn't like to come here to collect medicine.
Hot, muggy.
It feels like entering a huge sauna.
And it is the hottest volcanic rock slab sauna.
A scoop of water goes down, and the water vapor carries the temperature of the volcano, seducing out all the sweat in the body.
In just a moment, Fu Ning's body was completely soaked.
"It's terrible."
He reached out to clear the fog, his brow furrowed slightly.
Visibility in the valley is very low, no more than ten meters.
It's easy to get lost in such an environment, and Fourning chooses to walk along the edge of the valley.
As you walk, mark the road.
But after a cup of tea, he heard the sound of water flowing in the distance.
Fu Ning's eyes lit up.
According to the records in the "General Solution of Alchemy", the 'blood moss' is as strong as blood, which belongs to the 'fire in the water', and is often born at the intersection of the fire veins and the water flow.
In other words, if you find a stream of water, you will not be far from the blood moss.
At that moment, Fu Ning did not hesitate any longer, and hurriedly walked towards the sound of the water.
Sure enough, after only a few steps, a gurgling stream appeared in front of him.
"It's finally here."
Fu Ning didn't care about looking for any blood moss, so he untied the medicine basket first, and jumped directly into the water.
Anyway, the clothes were already soaked with hot sweat just now, and there was no scruple at this time, and the whole person sank under the water, leaving not an inch of skin outside.
"Poof~"
He poked his head out and exhaled a cloudy breath: "It's so comfortable! ”
The water came down from the mountain, still a little cool, just enough to extinguish the heat in his body at once.
It took a while for him to reluctantly come out of the water.
After all, this trip is to collect medicine, and I can't come in vain.
It is said that one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people.
In fact, this is even more true for medicinal herbs.
There are fire veins running through the underground of Danshan, so there are more fires on the mountain to practice elixir.
Only here, fire and water converge to form a special balance of fire and water.
Hence the birth of the blood moss.
"It should be around here."
Beneath the stream are pebbles washed out over the years, and on both sides are shallows that extend out, and above the shallows are scattered stones.
These stones are covered with dampness and are the most likely places for blood moss to grow.
Fu Ning's eyes were like a ruler, measuring the boulders on both sides inch by inch.
According to the "General Explanation of Alchemy", the whole body of the blood moss is red, and it is easy to identify.
But after half an hour, Fu Ning only felt that his eyes were sore, and his skull was swollen: "Why don't you have a single hair." ”
Just when he was about to doubt his life, an angry curse suddenly sounded in his ears.
"It's too desperate, what a lack of morality!"
"There are not even moss roots left!"
"If I let Lao Tzu know who did it, I will have to peel his skin."
Hearing the voice, Fu Ning stopped: It turned out that there were other senior brothers in the Red Mist Valley.
Just as he was hesitating whether to meet him, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in the mist.
"Wait, who?!"
It was clear that they had seen Fu Ning as well.
Fu Ning hurriedly bowed slightly through the mist: "Hello two senior brothers, senior brother Fu Ning, you have just started." ”
"Beginner?"
Before the words fell, the two had already broken through the fog and walked in front of Fu Ning.
Among them, the tall senior brother had eyes like arrows, and the anger on his face had not yet subsided.
He looked Fu Ning up and down.
"You're here to collect medicine?"
Fu Ning saw that his face was not good, and he didn't dare to slack off in his heart, so he quickly nodded: "Senior brother, I just went up the mountain, so my pockets are tight, and I want to try my luck here." ”
"Who knows, I came in for a long time and didn't meet anything."
As he spoke, he opened the medicine basket and brought it to the two of them.
The short senior brother looked inside, and sure enough, there was nothing in the medicine basket except for the tools for collecting medicine.
"Senior brother, it's definitely not him, his medicine basket is cleaner than his face."
As soon as these words came out, the tall senior brother's face softened, and he immediately apologized: "Senior brother, it turned out to be a misunderstanding. ”
"I just confessed my mistake. But if you're here to collect blood moss, then I'd advise you to go back. ”
"The blood moss here has been drained, and it will definitely not be seen in three months."
"Got light?" Fu Ning was stunned for a moment.
The short senior brother snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, I didn't even leave the grass roots, it was like a dog licked it." ”
When Fu Ning heard this, he understood why the other party was so angry.
According to the "General Explanation of Alchemy", moss that grows on rocks like blood moss has strong reproductive properties.
At each harvest, only two-thirds can be cut off, leaving one-third as rhizomes, which will grow back in a very short time.
But if it's all scraped clean, it will take a long time to grow.
It's just that he didn't know why, Fu Ning suddenly remembered the theft of the medicine garden he had just heard about yesterday.
