Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Narrow Road Encounter
"Flame Blood Lotus. Qin Wen recognized at a glance the elixir in the water vapor contained in the hot spring, according to the size of the lotus petals, this was already an elixir that had grown for five thousand years and was about to mature.
Qin Wen didn't expect that in this kind of wilderness that was almost icy and snowy all year round, the cave actually contained this kind of medicinal herb that had almost reached the spiritual level, and judging from the few dried lotus branches next to it, there were also mature Yanxue lotus fruits in this hot spring that had been picked.
At this time, Qin Wen suddenly remembered the beast pill that the spirit leopard had condensed just now, this should be the one it discovered first, and the black bear sensed the aura when the flame blood lotus was about to blossom and bear fruit, and found it here, so he and the spirit leopard had a fierce fight at the entrance of the cave.
Qin Wen walked forward to the hot spring, the pink petals of the Flame Blood Lotus were faintly shiny, and gradually there was a tendency to bloom, Qin Wen's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, although this Flame Blood Lotus was the main medicine in refining the Breaking Mystery Elixir, but its storage was a problem.
If it is not picked within three hours after blooming, the lotus seed will automatically fall off, and the medicinal properties will be lost at least half, and after picking, its aura will also volatilize relatively quickly, and the medicinal properties will basically volatilize after two days in an ordinary storage bag.
Qin Wen knew that even if his storage silk sac was one level higher than the storage bag, he would not extend it for a few days, and the most important thing was to use a closed formation spirit weapon to store it, but now Qin Wen did not have this kind of spirit weapon in his hands, even in the capital, this kind of spirit weapon was unattainable.
According to the current situation, the most haode way is to refine it into a pill immediately after picking, although there is no direct refining of the dispensing of the Xuandan, but it can also temporarily concoct the lotus into a pill, so that its medicinal properties can be preserved permanently, and when the medicinal materials are completed in the future, the same can be refined into the Xuandan.
However, in this case, there is still a problem in front of Qin Wen, although there is a hot spring with ground temperature, but there is no earth fire, Qin Wen has not broken through the Xuanshi period now, and the possibility of failure to refine the pill with his own yuan fire is relatively large, and in this area, Qin Wen is not familiar with it, in case he can't find the earth fire with the Yan Blood Lotus, it will be a pity to let it lose its medicinal properties.
And now the Flame Blood Lotus in the hot spring is about to bloom in the next two days, and Qin Wen can't leave here to look for the Earth Fire, in case he finds the Earth Fire, and when he comes back, the Flame Blood Lotus is robbed by others, and it will be even more than worth the loss.
Just when Qin Wen was hesitating, suddenly Qin Wen heard the voice of a girl outside: "Senior brother, there are two corpses of spirit beasts here. ”
Then a man lowered his voice and said, "Senior sister, be quiet, in case you attract other spirit beasts, it will be troublesome." ”
Then Qin Wen only heard the sound of the vitality flying, and there was no more dialogue, Qin Wen was stunned, felt that the voice was a little familiar, and immediately remembered in his mind, this is the two monks who occupied their bonfire yesterday, listening to the name between them, it should be the monks of a certain sect, but I didn't expect them to come here after only a little rest.
Seeing the corpse of the spirit beast, the two brothers and sisters outside found that it was only a matter of time before the cave was discovered, and in this barren mountain range, Qin Wen was alone again, so he quietly took out the Yanlong spear, turned around and hid behind the stone wall, and prepared to defend himself.
There was a sound of turning the corpse of the spirit beast outside, and then there was a fluctuation of aura in front of the cave, Qin Wen knew that the two had come outside the cave, and they didn't hear the sound of talking, it was probably that the two of them were more cautious and used the sound of vitality transmission to communicate.
Then Qin Wen felt the fluctuation of the aura enter the entrance of the cave, and then got closer and closer, and suddenly stopped when he was about three zhang away from Qin Wen, Qin Wen was stunned in his heart, and suddenly thought that he suddenly stopped in the direction where he could see the hot spring, and there was only one possibility, that is, he had discovered himself.
As soon as he thought that he had been exposed, Qin Wen flew backwards vigilantly, and just as his figure had just left the stone wall, two flames hit the location he had just been at the same time.
There was a loud "boom", the whole cave trembled, and the smoke and dust on the stone wall after the firelight flashed away, revealing a large hole with a long flying sword pierced in the cave.
Qin Wen secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately he dodged in time, if he took a step at night, these two attacks would be superimposed, and even if he didn't die, he would inevitably suffer heavy damage, since both sides were already clear about the existence of the opponent, even if there was no Flame Blood Lotus in the cave, a vicious battle would not be avoidable.
The cyan aura of the Yanlong Spear in Qin Wen's hand appeared, and the Canglong Eight Style was like a stab outside, and the scope in the cave was limited, and the shadow of this type of spear almost covered the entire passage of the cave.
As soon as the aura of the spear body approached three zhang away, he heard the voice of the girl opposite: "Senior brother, be careful." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qin Wen saw that there were still two flame-like auras facing the Yanlong spear, after the two auras collided, the cave suddenly flew sand and rocks, and the rumbling sound was endless, Qin Wen's style was just to test the cultivation of the two first, and after the Yanlong spear stabbed out, it did not impact again, but returned to its original position.
Feeling the power of the two flames of vitality, the two monks on the opposite side were at most the cultivators of the lower level of the Xuan Scholars, Qin Wen's heart also settled down slightly, and he raised the spear across his chest, paying attention to the movement on the opposite side.
Several large stones on the stone wall fell on the road between the three of them, and Qin Wen also saw the faces of the two people opposite, standing in front of him was a monk in a gray robe, the flying sword in his hand flashed with a dark red luster, and behind him was a red-clothed girl holding a short dagger, and the eyes of the two were also focused on Qin Wen's body.
The gray-robed monk glanced at Qin Wen with a gloomy face, his eyes flashed with a complicated light, and after the smoke and dust dissipated, he suddenly showed a smile and said, "It turned out to be a Daoist brother, just now my senior sister and I thought that there were spirit beasts hidden in the cave, I'm really embarrassed." ”
The girl in red glanced at the senior brother in front of her with a puzzled face at this time, but she didn't make a sound, but held a short dagger in her hand and looked at Qin Wen on the opposite side eagerly.
Qin Wen didn't expect that the gray robed monk would suddenly make a friendship, and he still didn't relax his vigilance in his heart, but said lightly: "Since Brother Dao said that it was a misunderstanding, then this cave was discovered first, so please go back." ”
As soon as the girl in red wanted to speak, the monk in front of her flicked his fingers and gently pulled her with his vitality, and then looked at the hot blood lotus in the hot spring with a smile on his face, and said with admiration: "Brother Dao is really lucky, I met such a haode elixir, but unfortunately our senior brother and sister are a step late, since Brother Dao said so, then we will leave first." ”
Qin Wen nodded, and said with a little politeness: "It's a pity that the elixir here can only refine one furnace of elixir, if there are more, I don't mind giving one to the two of you." ”
The smile on the gray-shirted monk's face became even thicker, and he said in a gentle tone: "Brother Dao is really polite, although our senior brother and sister have not been practicing for a long time, they still know some rules. ”
Speaking of this, his words paused, his eyes fell on the hot spring blood lotus, and his brows furrowed slightly: "I have seen this elixir in Master's medicine garden, it should not be easy to store, if Brother Dao hastily picks it, in case the medicinal herbs are spiritually dissipated, it will be a pity." ”
Qin Wen listened to his words, and couldn't help but sneer secretly in his heart, with his realm cultivation in his previous life, he was not sure of transplanting the Flame Blood Lotus that grew in this specific environment, and the master in the mouth of this gray-shirted monk must be a spirit level cultivator at most, and it was impossible to cultivate the Flame Blood Lotus Fruit in the medicine garden.
Ninety percent of what the gray-shirted monk said was untrue, but seeing that the gray-shirted monk had no intention of leaving, Qin Wen didn't say anything, but still looked at the two of them with the same expression, but the vitality quietly entered the Yanlong spear to cope with the sudden change.
At this time, the gray-shirted monk glanced at the girl behind him and said: "My junior sister just has a spirit box forbidden by the formation in her hand, and the medicinal properties of the elixir will not be lost if you put it inside, if Brother Dao doesn't mind, we can put this elixir into the spirit box, and then find a place to refine the elixir, when the elixir is baked, Brother Dao only needs to give the two of us two pills, what does Brother Dao think?"
Qin Wen was stunned, he didn't expect the gray-shirted monk to put forward such a condition, so he hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know how the prohibition of that spirit box is, can you take it out and let me take a look?"
The gray-shirted monk heard that Qin Wen was a little moved, and said with a smile: "This is natural, senior sister take your spirit box to Brother Dao and let him identify it." ”
At this time, the girl in red put the short dagger into the storage bag, then took out a quaint square box, took a few steps forward, stepped over the stones on the road, stopped in front of Qin's tattoo, and pressed the buckle spring lightly with her fingers, and the square lid suddenly popped open.
At this time, Qin Wen saw that inside the box was a bronze mirror of light, and before he turned a corner in his heart, the dazzling white light flashed on the copper mirror, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
In front of him were rows of Dan furnaces, the heat of the ground fire made him sweat slightly, and what he was holding in his hand was the prepared medicinal materials, and standing next to him was the master of his previous life, and he was still nagging about his mistakes in dispensing medicine.
At this moment, the Yanlong Spear in Qin Wen's hand suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a cool aura rushed directly into his mind, and the Dan Room in front of him immediately disappeared without a trace, and Qin Wen suddenly came to his senses.
He already understood that he was following the path of the two people opposite, and his first reaction was to get out of danger first, and in the moment of clarity in his eyes, Qin Wen turned over and flew to the stone platform in the hot spring.
