Chapter 43: Continuing Life
As soon as Xiang Hao's words fell, the cave suddenly fell silent, except for Lao Gao's heavy gasps, only the sound of the mountain wind blowing the vines at the entrance of the cave.
Qin Wen nodded at this time and asked, "What do you think of the deal I said?"
Xiang Hao just wanted to speak, but his hand on Lao Gao's back was lightly pressed, Lao Gao felt the slightest aura of ice ginseng at this time, and said calmly: "Little brother, don't hide it, my current injury is not in my internal organs, it should be that the dantian was abolished by a holy master of the Hu people." ”
"Didn't you still be able to use your Yuan Qi just now?" Qin Wen asked with a slight frown at this time.
Lao Gao, under the supplement of the ice ginseng aura, his spirit was better than just now, so he leaned against the stone wall behind the weeds and said: "That holy master looks like a young child, but the exercises are poisonous, he should only have the cultivation of the upper level of the Xuantu, but when the other holy masters besieged and broke through my vitality defense, his hand slapped on my dantian and sneaked attack." ”
"At that time, I felt that the vitality in the dantian was completely emptied, but when I ran the exercises, I found that the vitality had recovered again, and I thought it was just a temporary blockage of the meridians, but just when we broke through the encirclement of the holy master and rushed to this side, I suddenly discovered the abnormality of the body. ”
At this time, Qin Wen tapped the veins of his wrist with his hand and asked, "Is there anything abnormal, do you feel that the essence blood is consumed very quickly, especially when using the Yuan Qi." ”
Lao Gao looked at Qin Wen in surprise at this time and said: "How do you know? I also found out after I took the horse of Ku Lie's personal guard, it turned out that after I was slapped by him, all the vitality used now was forcibly transformed by my own essence and blood, and we broke through the entire three tribes along the way, if it weren't for your pill and ice ginseng, I'm afraid it would be good for me to support this cave." ”
Qin Wen explained at this time: "I am looking at it from the operation of your essence and blood, what the Holy Master who injured you should practice is a very special exercise, after he hits the dantian, not only will the vitality in the dantian be completely absorbed, but your essence and blood will also be converted into vitality when it is running. ”
"Actually, his kind of exercise is mainly used in the furnace of vitality, I think he caught you back, and he also wanted to use you as a furnace ding, so that he could absorb the vitality of your essence and blood transformation in the future. ”
Lao Gao nodded silently, and when Xiang Hao heard what Qin Wen said, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Qin, is there any elixir to treat this kind of internal injury?"
Qin Wen nodded slightly: "Yes, it is difficult to find medicines, and it requires no less than five hundred years of blood stems, and I estimate that there may not be any elixir merchants in Luming City." ”
Xiang Hao said with joy in his heart at this time: "It's okay, as long as you open the Danfang, even if there is only one plant in Luming City, I will find it." ”
Qin Wen didn't know what his identity was, and his tone was so big, but he didn't want to listen to other people's secrets, so he directly asked Lao Gaodao: "What kind of cultivation are you? I want to calculate what kind of quality is most suitable for the elixir, and when the time comes, I will also refine the elixir that matches the realm." ”
Lao Gao shook his head at this time and said: "I am a Xuanshi upper rank, if you want to refine the elixir, you must bake the Xuan-level high-grade elixir, I don't think it's better to waste the elixir on me." The meaning in his voice was very clear, it should be that seeing Qin Wen's cultivation was only in the Xuan Disciple Period, it was completely impossible to refine a Xuan-level high-grade elixir.
Qin Wen's heart was also slightly shocked at this time, no wonder he was able to break into three tribes in a row under serious injuries, the purity of the essence blood of the Xuanshi was really terrifying, Lao Gao was also the highest cultivator Qin Wen saw in Luming City, if he wasn't seriously injured, those chasing soldiers just now estimated that he didn't use a flying sword, and one finger should be able to solve all the Hu people in the innate realm.
However, he also knew the meaning of Lao Gao's words, so he smiled slightly and said confidently: "As long as you can find more than five hundred years of Chinese medicine dispensing, the refining of pills is not a problem, but the cost of dispensing is up to you, otherwise the cost of this purple frost stone will be too great." ”
Xiang Hao hurriedly said at this time: "That's natural, we still understand the rules of the Dan Master, Brother Qin, now that I have breathed well, you see if we are on the road earlier, and we will arrive in Luming City as soon as possible, and I can also prepare the elixir earlier." ”
Qin Wen nodded, and then handed the remaining half of the ice ginseng to Xiang Hao and said, "You cut a small slice of these ice ginseng each time, and then give him one piece at noon and one at night every day, even if you arrive in Luming City, you can support it for a few days." After speaking, he was the first to walk out of the cave.
Xiang Hao also walked out with Lao Gao on his back at this time, and Lao Gao whispered in his ear: "Young master, I don't think it's better to risk going to Luming City, if people know that I am seriously injured, maybe it will be unfavorable to you, besides, the Dan master surnamed Qin in front of him can't help but boast a little, how can a Dan master in the Xuantu realm refine a Xuan-level high-grade pill." ”
Xiang Hao looked at Qin Wen cautiously at this time, and saw that he didn't pay attention to the conversation between Lao Gao and himself, but walked slowly on the mountain road in front of him, so he carefully said with a voice: "Lao Gao, you must live, you also know how many people in the capital are watching me, if it weren't for you, maybe I would have been out of this world a long time ago, and I would have to gamble on it, and besides, this Qin Wen, I have a little bit of confidence in him, how can a monk in the Xuantu realm casually take out a thousand-year-old ice ginseng." ”
Lao Gao nodded at this time and sighed in a low voice: "Then take a gamble, but young master, you must promise me that once I die, you must leave Luming City immediately and return to the capital." ”
Xiang Hao continued to transmit the voice: "I know, when I get to Luming City, I will go to Huatian Pavilion first to see if I can match the required elixir, if it really can't work, I will go to the City Lord's Mansion again." ”
Lao Gao's slender eyes narrowed slightly at this time and said: "Young master, if you go to Huatian Pavilion, it will be easy to expose your identity, Huatian Pavilion has branches in every city, and their ears and eyes are very sensitive, although I have never heard that they have any entanglements in the capital, but it is better to be careful." ”
Xiang Hao was slightly stunned and said: "In Luming City, only the elixir there is more complete, if you go to other stores to buy it, even if it is complete, it will delay a lot of time." ”
At this time, Lao Gao's voice was lowered: "Isn't there still a talisman in the young master's storage bag? ”
Xiang Hao's eyes lit up at this time and said, "Why didn't I think of it, Lao Gao, just do what you say." At this time, the two had finished their discussion, and Xiang Hao hurriedly quickened his pace and walked beside Qin Wen.
Qin Wen also knew that they were lagging behind to discuss things, but he had no interest in eavesdropping on matters that had nothing to do with him, and looked at Xiang Hao, who had caught up, knowing that their matter was over, so he asked with a faint smile: "If you go out of this mountain, how far is it from Luming City?"
Xiang Hao thought for a while and said, "There should be another day to go, but I don't know if there is a market yet, if there is, we can buy a carriage at the market, in that case, it will be three or four hours at most." ”
Qin Wen nodded, thinking about the location and distance of the Qin Manor, if according to what Xiang Hao said, it was not too far from the Qin Manor, Qin Wen planned to go back and take a look for himself, and then catch up with Xiang Hao and them.
However, Qin Wen thought at this time that the purple frost stone was still in his storage bag, if he left Xiang Hao and the two as soon as he came out of the mountain, it was inevitable that the two of them would have some ideas, and it was a little inappropriate to do so, after thinking about it, Qin Wen still suppressed the idea of returning to Qin's manor first, and prepared to wait until he arrived in Luming City before making plans.
Finally, after walking for two days, Qin Wen and the three of them walked out of the mountain, but the scene in front of them surprised Qin Wen, the crops planted on the slopes in the past have now been completely replaced by half-human-high wild grass, and the small village as far as the eye can see is no longer as quiet as it used to be, there are ruins everywhere, and traces of fire are everywhere.
Qin Wen couldn't help but mutter, "What's wrong?"
Xiang Hao next to him replied: "It was the Hu people who did it, when I came with Lao Gao, the Hu people just retreated to the Muzha Pass, and listened to the nearby villagers who fled the famine, Kulie's army has been beaten to the bottom of Luming City, and without breaking through the city, they retreated back to the Muzha Pass, but the people of the manor near Luming City were killed, and the Hu people burned and looted everywhere, and I heard that several manors were slaughtered. ”
Qin Wen's face couldn't help but show an anxious look, although his sense of belonging to the Qin family was not strong, but there were still a few people close to him in the Qin family, and for a while he also wanted to know the current situation of Qin Lu, the Qin Hu brothers, and Zuo Yi's master and apprentice.
Xiang Hao saw that Qin Wen was a little stunned at this time, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Qin, is there anything wrong with you?"
Qin Wen thought for a while and said, "My home is in the Qin family's manor near here, seeing that this place has been harassed by the Hu people, I want to go back and have a look first, don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible." ”
Xiang Hao showed a look of embarrassment on his face at this time and said, "That old Gao's injury?"
Lao Gao said a little weakly: "Since your home is nearby, it doesn't hurt for you to go back and have a look first, let's go first, if you arrive in Luming City, come to the Drunken Immortal House Inn in the east of the city to find us." ”
Qin Wen's expression moved at this time, his eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Lao Gao and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will leave with the Purple Frost Stone?"
The corners of Lao Gao's mouth twitched slightly: "If you want to leave, you will leave as early as when you leave the mountain, who can keep you between the two of us now." ”
Qin Wen nodded and said: "I Qin Wen promised to do what I promised, you can rest assured, at most tomorrow at noon, I will definitely go to the Drunken Immortal Building to find you." ”
