"Okay, are you ready now?" said the woman in red with a slight smile.

"Sister, I'm ready!" Xia Bo said with a firm face, instinctively thinking that this seal would definitely be very painful, after all, the Tianshan Snow Lotus in front of him was so much bigger than himself, if it was according to the normal situation, I was afraid that he would be strangled to death!

After saying that, Xia Bo closed his eyes and waited for the woman in red to cast the so-called seal, hoping that the pain would not be heartbreaking.

However, Xia Bo waited for a long time, and did not feel the slightest pain, but felt as if there was something on top of his head.

"What is this?" Xia Bo was puzzled, so he opened his eyes, took off the thing on his head, and was instantly dumbfounded, and asked in surprise.

"Don't you know how to read, do you still need me to tell you?" the woman in red pursed her lips and said lightly.

"Hehe, I'll see for myself. Xia Bo smiled and glanced down, and there were four big words written on it - Plant Contract.

"How to use this, sister, you can introduce it to me. Xia Bo had never heard of any plant contracts, let alone seen them, so he asked suspiciously, and secretly said in his heart: There is also a plant contract, is it really that he is too lonely and unheard?

"I really haven't seen the world, and I don't even know this. The woman in red said proudly: "Actually, it's very simple, you only need to drop your own blood on this contract, and then stick the contract on the plant, then the plant will become your slave, integrate into your body, and will be used by you in the future." ”

"I see!" Xia Bo was so excited that he bit his finger and dropped a large piece of blood on the contract, and then pasted the contract on the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

At this time, there was a sudden dull thud.

In the next moment, a brilliant and dazzling silver light erupted from the Tianshan Snow Lotus, piercing his eyes a little bit.

In the slow silence, it was as if something had entered Xia Bo's body.

Xia Bo immediately felt a chill in his limbs, as if he was being embraced by Qing Shui.

Before he could enjoy it, another burst of cold hit him, and Xia Bo shivered all over, even if he wanted to, there was no way.

"Yes, it seems to have worked. At this time, the voice of the woman in red rang out.

"Sister, how could I freeze?" Xia Bo's forehead was full of black lines, although the Tianshan Snow Lotus was integrated into his body, but now he couldn't move, so he hurriedly asked.

"Nonsense!" the woman in red explained, "You absorb the cold of the Tianshan Snow Lotus, and only after freezing you can it slowly merge with your body." ”

"How long will it take?" said Charab.

"This Tianshan Snow Lotus has almost thousands of years of growth time, and if it fuses with an ordinary body of yours, it will take hundreds of years. The woman in red said with a little impatience: "You just wait here slowly, and when the Tianshan Snow Lotus is completely integrated with you, you will be fine at that time." ”

"Hundreds of years ......" Hearing this, Xia Bo almost collapsed, thinking that he would soon be able to let himself out, but it turned out to be hundreds of years, in the end, he was a slave, or Tianshan Snow Lotus was a slave?

Hundreds of years?

Perhaps, in a few days at all, the people of Taiyimen will find that the Tianshan Snow Lotus they relied on for survival has disappeared, and then look around, and sooner or later they will find here.

When the time comes, when they see that they are frozen, they will definitely carry themselves back to alchemy.

What about the opportunity?

What about the treasures?

Why is it always me who gets hurt?

"This can't work, sister, do you have any other way?" Xia Bo said hurriedly, after all, staying here for one more minute would be more dangerous, it would be better to leave early: "I can't stay here all the time, it's been a long time, so who will find you other spirit beads?"

"Now this Tianshan Snow Lotus is already your slave, if you let it thaw, it will thaw. The woman in red said solemnly: "However, you have to think clearly, after the thaw, unless there is a special opportunity, it will take a long time to completely integrate with your body." ”

"Sister, I know, I'll try it now. Xia Bo saw a very small Tianshan Snow Lotus in his mind, and after giving the order to thaw, the cold ice just now disappeared, and he felt a sense of relief in his body.

"Alright, I'm going to retreat now to refine the Water Spirit Bead. The woman in red yawned and said, "I hope you can let me continue the retreat when I get out." ”

"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to do what I promised you. Xia Bo breathed a sigh of relief and said confidently.

Xia Bo thought about it, the reason why he couldn't find the spirit bead before was probably because of Elder Shi.

After all, Elder Shi is a broom star, as long as he follows him, he will definitely make himself constantly unlucky.

Xia Bo didn't expect that he had been walking for a long time unconsciously, and now when he looked back, he suddenly felt so far away!

"I didn't waste much time in the cave, why is it getting dark now?" When he went outside, Xia Bo was dumbfounded, the moon had already risen into the sky, but there was no way at all: "I can't go back today, let's go outside and find a place to sleep." ”

In order to prove that he had never been to this Taiyi Mountain, Xia Bo walked into the main hall and yelled twice.

Sure enough, it was still silent.

"It is estimated that the people in Taiyimen are still busy, and they don't have time to see themselves at all. Xia Bo was surprised, and then walked out of the main hall.

When he walked out of the main hall, Xia Bo saw a familiar figure sitting on the steps from a distance, leaning against the stone pillar, this guy was Elder Shi.

At this time, Xia Bo's heart was a little moved, and he was a little embarrassed to walk over and kick him twice, and just wanted to say two touching words, Elder Shi jumped up directly from the ground.

"Who attacked Lao Tzu just now? Quickly stand up, if it's a man, stand up!" Elder Shi looked around vigilantly, looked left and right and front, but didn't look behind, and then shouted loudly: "No matter what you are, stand up for Lao Tzu." ”

"It's Lao Tzu - me. Xia Bo glanced at Elder Shi and pouted.

"Xia Bo, it turned out to be you, it really scared me to death. Elder Shi turned around and saw Xia Bo standing in front of him, he immediately relaxed, yawned, and said lightly, "I thought I had met a ghost." ”

Seeing that Elder Shi yawned, feeling that this guy was asleep, Xia Bo was speechless again, and almost wasted my expression.

"It's already dark, I'm sorry. Elder Shi looked up at the sky and said dimly, "You also know that I don't have any skills, but I was born sleepy and unlucky. ”

What else can Shabo say to such a person?

However, it seems that this is also a pretty good thing.

"It's okay, you don't have to mind. Immediately, Xia Bo smiled honestly and said, "Actually, like you, I also fell asleep in it." ”

"You also fell asleep in the main hall?" Elder Shi asked in disbelief.

"Yes, who can not be sleepy in this place?" Xia Bo nodded and said: "I waited there for a long time and didn't see the master, so I guess I couldn't see the master, so I came out to look for you." ”

"I thought you had been waiting for me outside until now, and it made me feel a little guilty and uneasy just now!" Elder Shi was completely brainless, and directly believed what Xia Bo said: "Now that I heard you say this, I put it down. ”

"Elder Shi, if someone asks us in a moment, how about saying that the two of us are waiting for the head to fall asleep on this step?" Xia Bo said after thinking about it.

"Why? This is not the same at all!" Elder Shi said with a puzzled face: "You sleep in the main hall and there are walls anyway, it won't be too cold, where is the cold wind blowing like me here, I am lucky not to freeze to death." ”

"It's very simple, other people's trust in you is not very strong, they will treat you as a broom star, if something happens to Taiyimen, they will definitely be the first to suspect you, I said that for you as a witness. Xia Bo glanced at him depressedly, and said helplessly: "If you don't like it, you can completely pretend that nothing happened, anyway, I don't care." ”

"You have a point, my brain was flooded just now, and I didn't react for a while. Elder Shi was immediately dumbfounded, and then said with a sincere smile: "I will definitely agree, and I will definitely do what you say." ”

"Alright, now we should find a place to rest. Seeing this scene, Xia Bo was very satisfied, and said with a sigh.

"You're not very familiar with Taiyimen, but I'm familiar with it, and I know where to sleep. Elder Shi patted his chest and said.

Now Xia Bo probably has an understanding of Taiyi Gate, almost all the people in Taiyi Gate don't sleep day and night, and even eat next to the alchemy furnace.

In such a hot environment, it is estimated that there is no need to go to the toilet, and the water in the body will evaporate from the pores.

"Where did you bring me here?" As soon as he walked to a room, Xia Bo smelled a foul smell and almost threw up, and asked with nausea and vomiting.

"Of course it's a place to sleep. Elder Shi said with confidence on his face, and pointed to the bed next to him: "There is only one place for disciples to rest in the entire Taiyi Sect, and I won't find the wrong place." ”

The so-called bed is made of wooden planks, and it can sleep about seven or eight people in one bed.

There are two such beds here, and there are some quilts on them, and I don't know what color the quilt was, but what I see now is a black quilt.

Xia Bo saw that there was a man sleeping, still wrapped in the oily quilt, and he couldn't see what he was like, so he tried not to throw himself up.

"Brother Xia Bo, I know you think this place stinks, and there is no way to do it!" Elder Shi continued: "These disciples of the Taiyi Sect have been in the alchemy room all day long, it must be very hot, their bodies are constantly sweating, and they will come back to sleep if they are tired, if they don't stink, it's strange." ”

"Forget it, I'm leaving here tomorrow anyway, so let's barely sleep here for the night. Xia Bo felt that what Elder Shi said made some sense, even if it didn't make sense, what could he do: "After you go back, you can take a good bath, and just change a set of clothes by the way." ”

Now the cold wind is blowing outside, and if you sleep outside for a night, you will definitely freeze to death.

Currently there is only this place to sleep and it will not be so cold.

"Xia Bo, do you know, usually people who have finished refining the medicine will come back to sleep, and this person must have the pill that has just been practiced. Elder Shi didn't seem to be able to sleep, turned to look at the sleeping person next to him, and said to Xia Bo, "We can take away his pill while he is sleeping, and we can use it later." ”

"That's a good idea. Xia Bo's eyes lit up.

However, unfortunately, before Xia Bo and Elder Shi could act, this guy woke up.

This guy was none other than the boy in Tsing Yi, who sat up directly from the bed and took off the quilt on his body.

"Elder Shi, I told you everything, this person is the boy in Tsing Yi, you still don't believe it. "Xia Bo's forehead is full of black lines, how can you meet acquaintances wherever you go?

"Yes, I won the bet, and you remember to give me money tomorrow. "Elder Shi began to play scoundrels.

"Ugh. Xia Bo responded, too lazy to pay attention to Elder Shi's cleverness, this was originally lying, there was nothing to worry about.

"If you don't come today, my alchemy furnace won't explode, then I will definitely refine the elixir. The young man in Tsing Yi yawned, looked at Elder Shi and said, "There are almost fifty people in our Taiyi Sect, why did you come to me? I really hate you to death!"

Xia Bo was speechless, there are more than fifty people in this Taiyi Sect, and such a sect can't even compare to a small sect in the rivers and lakes, and it's embarrassing to say that Taiyi Sect is a big sect outside?

"Senior Brother Xia Bo, why are you here?" Seeing that Xia Bo didn't speak, the young man in Tsing Yi asked, "Didn't you say that you had to rush back to Taibaimen today, why didn't you go back so late?"

"There's a way, who let your portal here have no talismans?" Elder Shi looked lazy, yawned and said, "There is no teleportation talisman, how can you let us go back?"

"I see. The boy in Tsing Yi nodded, and he could understand Xia Bo's current state of mind, so he could only say comfortingly: "Senior Brother Xia Bo, don't worry, tomorrow you go to the head of the sect to give you the talisman, and then you can return to Taibai Gate." ”

"It's so late today, let's look for it tomorrow. Xia Bo shuddered, and hurriedly said with a simple smile: "We are not familiar with this Taiyi Gate just now, and we don't know where the head of the sect lives, and we need to trouble Brother Gongzi to show us the way when the time comes." ”

"Doesn't Elder Shi know?" a look of doubt flashed in the eyes of the young man in Tsing Yi, and he asked curiously.

"Of course I do. Elder Shi said with a smug face.

"Maybe Elder Shi knew, but I ignored him because I disliked him as an unlucky star at the time, and it turned out to be like this. Xia Bo hurriedly said: "It's not too early, let's go to bed quickly, there are still many things to be busy tomorrow." ”

"yes, let's go to sleep. Elder Shi nodded, his eyes blurred, and he soon fell asleep.
