Chapter 24: The Flowers

The Tianshu Secret Realm has a vast range, but there are only a few known mountains marked on the map.

The place where Fu Qingyu and Fu Yu are located is one of them.

Not long after the three of Chiyunmen left, Fu Qingyu found that a team of monks was passing by a few miles away, and did not stop at the foot of the mountain, but went straight up the mountain.

Fu Qingyu is not in a hurry to act, it is not easy to find Xiaohua during the day, but it is much easier after nightfall.

The night grew darker, and she didn't leave the cave until she couldn't see her fingers outside the cave.

Yu'er originally wanted to follow, but her cultivation in the Open Light Realm now can barely achieve the flight of the imperial weapon, but it is a little difficult to bring one more person.

Saying that he would come back before dawn, Fu Qingyu sacrificed the crescent scimitar she bought on the black market not long ago, poured spiritual power into it, stepped up with both feet, and rose to the sky.

Halfway up the mountain, she found three familiar breaths, which were the three people of Chiyunmen who had only seen at the foot of the mountain half a day ago.

They had obviously found the wrong target, and went to the place where the spiritual energy in the mountains was the strongest, and now they were sitting by a spiritual spring to rest.

The two junior disciples beside Cao Songcheng hung their heads dejectedly, "Is there no Xiaohua on this mountain at all?" ”

"Found now, this half of the mountain has the strongest spiritual energy, not to mention Xiaosuhua, I haven't even seen an ordinary eight-grade spiritual plant, it is not as good as the spiritual plant on the flat ground."

The night wind swept their conversation and drilled into Fu Qingyu's ears.

She immediately knew in her heart that there should be a Xiaohua on this mountain.

She didn't know how different the Xiao Su flower in the Tianshu Secret Realm was from the Fu family's cultivation, but the Xiao Su flower that grew in the Fu family's medicine field could absorb the spiritual energy in the rest of the nearby spirit plants when it bloomed, even the higher-grade spirit plants in the medicine field couldn't grab it.

Three or two Xiaohua flowers can dim a whole medicinal field full of six-grade spiritual plants.

As for whether the high-grade spirit plant would be affected by the Xiaohua flower, she didn't know, the Fu family hadn't tried it when they cultivated it, after all, they didn't bring such a thing.

The aura in the Tianshu Secret Realm is rich, and the aura on the mountain is not thinner than the ground, and in this case, the appearance of the spirit plant that has not entered the entire mountain peak is very revealing.

Fu Qingyu suspected that it was not that there were no spiritual plants growing on the mountain, but that those spiritual plants had been sucked dry by the Xiaohua flowers.

Controlling the scimitar under his feet to continue to fly upward, Fu Qingyu spread out his divine sense, paying attention to the flowers and plants growing near the cliff.

In addition to snatching aura, there is another characteristic of the Xiaohu flower.

Good at camouflage!

When not blooming, the stems secrete a special scent that confuses the eye and disguises them as other plants around them.

For most of the day, the flower is camouflaged, blooming its cherry pink flowers only when complete darkness makes it feel safe.

This is the real reason why it is difficult to find the flower. The clansmen who specialized in taking care of the spirit plants in the Fu family's medicine field were sometimes misled and found the wrong position, not to mention the monks in the Tianshu Secret Realm who had never seen the Xiaohua with their own eyes.

Like the three people of Chiyunmen, they only know what the Xiaohua looks like when it is in full bloom but don't know its special habits, and it is normal to not find it, and it is purely a blind cat encountering a dead mouse if you can find it!

When she was about to fly to the peak, Fu Qingyu paused her feet and lowered her scimitar downward, and at the moment when the moonlight was covered by the clouds, she caught a glimpse of a small patch of green grass suddenly blooming in the corner of her eye.

It is between the gaps in the cliff that are sandwiched between two boulders.

If it weren't for Fu Qingyu who happened to fly up from the direction where there was a gap next to him, even if he spread his divine sense, it would be easy to ignore this position.

It's a coincidence.

Fu Qingyu fell next to the boulder, there were three Xiaohua flowers growing here, and when she looked closely, she found that there was green grass next to it, but a six-grade spiritual plant called "Cold Winter Grass", and now the aura has been drained, and it has long lost its medicinal properties, and its vitality is not even comparable to ordinary grass.

On the other hand, the three Xiaosu flowers next to them are growing strongly, and the appearance of the flowers is particularly beautiful when they are in full bloom.

Fu Qingyu took out the small soil shovel originally left in the Qingrong ring, squatted down, carefully dug up the soil, and took out the three Xiao Corn flowers with rhizomes completely.

is different from the memory, but as Cao Songcheng and a few people said before, the rhizome of this flower is dark brown, far less beautiful than the cultivation of the Fu family's medicinal field.

Footsteps sounded on the path up the hill behind the boulders.

Fu Qingyu put away the flower, turned around and jumped down directly, the crescent scimitar firmly caught her falling body, and clinged to the side of the cliff, only three feet away from the place where the Xiaohua flower grew above.

"Miss Six, this is the place marked on the map, just behind the two boulders in front."

"Three years ago the man picked only one, and he said there were at least three more."

Footsteps approached.

A shrill female voice suddenly sounded above, "The soil here has been moved!" ”

Anger with disbelief, "How could someone find this place before us, this map family has never been spread, could it be that someone is following us?" ”

"Or did you tell someone else?"

"Miss Pei Liu, don't you spew blood, we have been with you since we entered the secret realm, how can we have the opportunity to contact others?"

Fu Qingyu wanted to control the scimitar under her feet to leave, but after hearing the sound of "Miss Pei Liu", she stopped in the same place.

There are four people in the upper row, and it can be seen that they are divided into two groups, on one side is a woman wearing a Cantonese embroidered Liuxian skirt and a beaded hairpin magic weapon and the guard next to her, and on the other side are two men with similar appearances, who look like a pair of brothers.

The brothers were said to be full of anger.

The woman was still talking, "Who knows if it's ...... with a transmission note"

After the guard beside her squatted down to inspect the soil, he hurriedly spoke: "Sixth Miss, now is not the time to argue about these, the traces of this soil being turned over are very new, the other party should have just left, we may be able to catch up now!" ”

"Divide into two roads, Miss Six and I will go down the mountain to find it, and you will look for it along the uphill road, is it feasible?"

"Okay, Miss Pei Liu, don't forget to promise our brother's reward."

The four of them split into two ways, Fu Qingyu took out a concealment charm, and quietly followed Miss Pei Liu's side.

At this time, she also remembered who the arrogant girl in front of her was.

There is a red mole behind the ear, this is Miss Pei Liu, Pei Jinxi. The old daughter of the head of the Pei family is at least thirty or forty years old behind the brothers and sisters above.

Speaking of which, the two still have some origins, she once participated in the full moon ceremony of the sixth lady. On the day the Fu family was wiped out, she happened to have just returned from the Pei family in Tianguang City to participate in the full moon ceremony.

The Pei family and the Fu family are only less than 200 miles apart.

If she hadn't participated in the Pei family's full moon ceremony, she might not have returned to the clan at that time.

Was this incident accidental, or was it intentional by the Pei family?
