——The most precious 'gift' in the world is not a gift, but all the effort that has been put into the gift.

"Xiao Ya! wait!" I put Xiao Ya on the ground, tied the mountaineering rope that could withstand a few pounds to my waist, grabbed the rope with my right hand, and said, "I saw a very beautiful flower underneath, I think it is very suitable for your clothes today, I will help you get it!"

"Ahh

Xiaoya hurriedly stopped me and grabbed my arm.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, just give me a chance to perform!Xiaoya, prove my determination to love you!" I said solemnly.

Xiaoya knew my intentions, if I didn't let myself prove myself, then I would definitely not be able to pass the level where I was angry with her just now, so she hugged me and gave me a sweet kiss, saying, "Be careful, I love you, Qin Yan!"

After a short pause, I let go of Xiaoya, looked at the distance of the rope, tightened the carabiner around my waist, walked to the edge of the eagle's beak, and told myself that I could do it!

I followed the example of those people in the mountaineering video and slowly stepped on the mountain wall, slowly sliding down, the delicate and beautiful flowers were not too far away, just two meters below the cliff in a stone crevice, I slipped to where in a while, stretched out my left hand to pick it.

At this moment, suddenly a bat flew out of the blind spot behind a raised stone in front of the crack in the stone, startling Lao Tzu, hearing my exclamation, Zhao Xiaoya hurriedly asked what was wrong.

"It's all right, it's just a bat!" I replied, and then continued to reach out to pluck it, and I thought that the roots of the delicate flower were so tenacious, and I plucked it with my hands several times, and I brought out a lot of the dirt from the cracks in the stones, but the delicate flower remained untouched.

So I took out the multi-purpose military knife from my pocket and prepared to cut off which roots, and just as I was about to cut off which roots, all of a sudden, I heard a dense sound coming, as if there were countless wings stirring, which came from the blind spot where the bat appeared just now.

So, I tightened my military knife and tightened my grip on the rope for the danger I was about to face.

"Xiaoya, there is something underneath, you pay attention, run away as soon as there is danger, there is wine and a lighter in the backpack!"

As I reminded, it grew louder and louder.

"I'll pull you up!" Xiaoya was worried about pulling the rope, and I hurriedly shouted: "It's too late, be careful!"

I only heard a bang, as if it exploded, the stone in the blind spot in front of the red delicate flower was knocked open, and countless black bats rushed out, rubbing the edge of the stone cave as if they were dying, desperately running out, before I could react, there was another loud noise, only to see a huge black python jumped out of the stone cave, the entire hole was enlarged in a circle, the surrounding stones were shattered and fell off the cliff, the roots of the red and delicate flowers were also exposed, and they were like big trees that were deeply rooted in the cracks of the stones。

The huge black python couldn't retract its strength, and half of its body poked out, and the remaining half of its body twisted and pressed into the hole. Sensing that it had been deceived, the giant python turned around and was about to go up, so Lao Tzu showed it nakedly in front of it.

Zhao Xiaoya exclaimed, and then reacted that I was still below, picked up the stone on the ground and smashed it desperately at the black head of the giant python, but the black giant python had rough skin and thick flesh, and it didn't seem to feel a little pain, but it stimulated its animal nature and pounced on me.

The moment I saw the python, my heart began to beat wildly, but I knew that now the python half of its body is suspended, although it can swing its body, but the angle is always limited, just when the python opened its blood basin and bit me, I flew away, grabbed the dense roots of the red delicate flower, and began to crawl towards the hole, the military knife in Lao Tzu's hand is sharp, extremely sharp, I must deal with this black python, otherwise I will not be able to climb up anyway.

I climbed to the entrance of the cave along which roots, the black python began to adjust the angle to bite me again, I jumped off the cliff, jumped to the python not far from the entrance of the cave, the climbing rope shook violently, well, I had psychological preparation in advance, although it hurt very much, but I can still bear it.

Lying on the belly of the python's snake, my military knife was inserted, almost not stopping, Lao Tzu cut a long wound, the black python rolled in pain, I was thrown out fiercely, hit the mountain wall, I felt that the internal organs were going to crack, and when I stabilized my body, I saw that the black python was scratched by me A long wound, began to flow a lot of blood, with the swing of the python, some red and black liquid continued to flow out.

Maybe it was the python's random swing that expanded the hole entrance, maybe the python was weak because of excessive bleeding, and gradually, the back half of the python could no longer support the half of the body exposed to the cliff, and they slipped out of the hole one after another, so the python twisted and fell from the cliff.

Seeing the giant python falling off the cliff, I took a long breath of relief, Zhao Xiaoya shouted my name on it, and I replied loudly: "I'm fine, I'll pick flowers!"

"Come on, don't pick it!" Zhao Xiaoya shouted from above.

"Right now, you wait!" I replied.

So I slowly ran to the bottom of the bright flower, began to take out the military knife, slowly cut, and at this moment, the cave suddenly came to the sound of clicking, clicking, Lao Tzu's heart tightened, is there something behind, so he held the military knife, stared at the entrance of the cave tightly, if there is any more moth, Lao Tzu must fly it first, and then go up directly.

As the snapping sound got closer, my breathing slowed until I held my breath.

Suddenly, a heroic face appeared in front of me, followed by the face of a slightly pale young man, and the two of them leaned out of the hole, shoulder to shoulder.

When they saw me hanging over the mountain wall, they were shocked, and the young man jerked his head up and crashed into the top of the cave.

"Qin Yan, what are you doing here!" the young man said softly, rubbing his head with his eyes wide.

"What else do you want to ask you?" I replied.

As if thinking of something, the young man hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "Is Zhao Xiaoya on it?"

I replied softly, "Of course, where else could it be!"

The young man frowned, and said as if he was worried: "Don't tell her that there is a cave down there, just say that you are talking to us on the phone." ”

I immediately understood the young man's abacus, so I said, "Don't worry, it's very windy up there, we don't shout loudly, she can't hear it at all." ”

"Oh, that's great!" the boy was relieved.

"What the hell are you doing, the adjudicator has acted?" I asked.

"It doesn't hurt to tell you, we are investigating the remnants of a plan that was carried out six years ago, and it is related to Shenyun Intelligence, the largest intelligent system in country Z now!" the teenager said.

"Shenyun Intelligence of the Shenqi Group?" I wondered.

"Yes," the boy replied.

"What does that Xiaoshan have to do with it, a desolate mountain, how can there be any Internet!" I was surprised.

"I can't tell you clearly for a while, there is an advanced huge cloud server hidden in this Xiaoshan, which is the source of the Shenyun intelligent system, if you want to know more, come to the café to find me, now you hurry up and go up, don't let Zhao Xiaoya be suspicious." The boy said.

"All right!" I replied, and began to cut the delicate flower with my knife.

"What are you doing?" suddenly exclaimed another heroic young man.

"Pick flowers for Xiaoya!" I replied.

"That's the Blood Lotus!" said the young man, "Once the Blood Lotus leaves it, its tangled roots will immediately wither."

"yes, how fast?" I asked.

"I once saw the pavilion master in the Heavenly Pavilion to take the blood lotus, and it was cut off and withered. The young man said.

"Yuan Tianzhong, don't lie to me, and then pick it up yourself?" I said in surprise: "How can any flower wither immediately!"

"You don't believe it!?" Yuan Tianzhong said

Seeing my disbelieving eyes, Yuan Tianzhong said to the young man behind him, "Xiao Yang, you stand back." ”

Then I saw a flash of cold light, and the blood lotus slowly slipped down, and I hurriedly grabbed it, but as soon as the blood lotus fell into my hand, it turned into a withered yellow color, but in a moment, all the petals fell off and flew away with the wind.

At this time, Zhao Xiaoya's anxious voice came, because she couldn't see where I was now, Zhao Xiaoya hurriedly said: "Qin Yan, are you okay, don't pick it if you can't pick it, come up quickly, the snow will be heavy for a while!"

"Okay, I'll go up!" I replied in a loud voice.

"Your hand is too fast!" I complained, "If you don't pick it, you won't pick it, you cut the flowers, isn't this eagle's beak missing a landscape?"

Seeing that Yuan Tianzhong was not angry, but pointed to the broken stem of the blood lotus that had just been cut off, and saw that a small flower bone was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Knowing my doubts, Yuan Tianzhong was not playing dumb riddles, and said directly to me: "The roots of the blood lotus are so extensive, I am afraid that it has reached the hinterland of Xiaoshan and directly absorbed the essence of the Xiaoshan Mountain Range, so the growth rate of the blood lotus is not comparable to that of ordinary flowers, but the blood lotus will not grow when it grows to a certain size, and will instead develop its own roots." ”

I nodded thoughtfully, and said unwillingly: "I am destined to not please Xiaoya!"

"Definitely!" Yuan Tianzhong saw that I looked lonely, so he said, "Do you really want this blood lotus!?"

Of course I want it, only such a delicate and independent strange flower is worthy of my Xiaoya.

"Of course, otherwise why would I have worked so hard to come down, I was almost eaten by the big black python just now!" I said, with a roll of my eyes.

"Okay! That big black python was originally chasing us, so it can be regarded as our compensation for you!" Yuan Tianzhong said: "It's not impossible to obtain the blood lotus, it's just a little damaging to people's spirits, and now this blood lotus is just a flower bone, and it only needs a small amount of blood to survive for a day." ”

"What do you mean!" I asked.

"If you want to take the blood lotus, you must first nourish it with blood, and attach the broken stem to the place where the blood is alive, so that the blood lotus will not be defeated for a day. Yuan Tianzhong said that in order to please the Holy Maiden Red Lotus Shengxue, the old pavilion master forcibly picked a fully bloomed blood lotus with his own essence blood, and it is said that the old pavilion master recuperated for half a year. “

"Really, don't scare me!" I exclaimed, "If I don't even have the strength to climb up, how can I go back." ”

"Don't worry, this flower bone is only so little, it doesn't take much blood from you, and a fully bloomed blood lotus is rare to see once in a thousand years!" Yuan Tianzhong said: "Just do it when you're ready, drip the blood on it, and I'll cut it off for you as quickly as possible, and then hold the broken stem at the wound in your palm." ”

"My military knife has just killed snakes, it's not clean!" I stretched out my palm and said to Yuan Tianzhong.

Yuan Tianzhong looked at me and said, "Do you know how much blood I have seen on this sword??? are you sure you want me to draw a sword for you!?"

Yuan Tianzhong's face was full of doubts, as if he was questioning me, the blood that your military sword has seen and the blood that his sword has seen are like a drop of water and an ocean.

"Forget it, Lao Tzu will come by himself, Zhou Yang, lend me a lighter!" I said to the young man.

"How do you know that I have a lighter, and I don't smoke!" Zhou Yang asked with a little confusion.

"You kid is born to worry about his life, come to the barren mountains and mountains of Xiaoshan, and enter the messy cave, it is impossible not to bring fire, although you believe in modern technology, but you also believe in your own ability to survive!" I hurriedly said: "Hurry up!"

Zhou Yang smiled, handed over the lighter, and said, "You kid is quite brainy, but I'm not here to survive!"

I ignored him, took the lighter and roasted the military knife, sterilized at high temperature, and then took out a tissue to wipe off the black on the knife, and after a while, I stabilized my body, and made a cut in the palm of my left hand with the knife in my right hand, and hurriedly dripped the blood three inches below the blood lotus bone, Yuan Tianzhong's eyes quickly drew out a sword, and returned to the sheath, due to the weather and terrain, he was a few points slower than usual this time, and I was able to see his scabbard, which was a tangled A metal belt with a phoenix motif on the waist, and the head of the belt is the head of a phoenix.

I hurriedly took the blood lotus and held the broken stem in my hand, and a tingling sensation came, as if I was being sucked by a small tongue. For fear that something would happen again, I grabbed the climbing rope in my right hand and began to climb, with the exposed blood lotus roots, I soon appeared in Zhao Xiaoya's sight, seeing that I was holding a flower bone in my left hand full of blood, Zhao Xiaoya shouted worriedly:

"What's wrong with your hands, throw the flowers away! I'll pull you up!"

"I don't, I've worked so hard to get it, don't worry, I'll come up!" I shouted.

So, Xiaoya pulled on it, I pedaled on the raised stone, held the rope in my left hand, and pulled the rope in my right hand, and after a while, I climbed up the cliff and spread it on the ground, my face was ruddy.

After taking a few deep breaths, I pulled Xiaoya away from the cliff of the eagle's beak, for fear that something would come out again, so I hurriedly came to the side of the Moon Stone, opened my palm and saw that the roots of the blood lotus bone were so blatantly covered with my entire palm, and some of them had already reached into the wound, I hurriedly took it off, Yuan Tianzhong said, this is enough for them to live for a day.

"What's the matter, that red tweed, how can you come up with the flower bones!" Xiao Ya said as she took out the first aid supplies from her backpack.

"It's a long story, this is the flower bone of the red flower, and when it is raised, it will grow exactly like the delicate flower. I said.

Zhao Xiaoya took out hemostatic medicine and gauze to help me bandage it, and said while wrapping it: "Don't do such stupid things in the future, that python really scared me to death!"

Hearing Xiaoya mention the python, I was also scared for a while, thinking that if it weren't for the python hanging most of its body in the air and unable to move freely, my life would really be difficult to protect.

"Well, but for your liking, I'm willing to risk a trap, and besides, isn't there an emergency, we won't die, and we will have a blessing. I said.

"Then don't let it be like this!Let's go! If you don't leave, you won't be able to go back in the afternoon! The cable car is only available at the Xingyue Hotel!" Xiao Ya said as she helped me.

So, we found a black plastic bag and got some dirt to wrap the roots of the blood lotus and put it in the side bag of the backpack.
