Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Poppy Fruit

In front of them was a valley, with clouds and mist lingering in the air, and there was no moon and stars in sight.

In the middle of the valley, there is a fruit tree about two feet high, and there is a glass lamp hanging on the top of the tree, under the light, the black charcoal-like crown is like a big umbrella that is opened, and the umbrella is full of cherry-sized fruits, red and lovely. The tree has no leaves and no flowers, and its branches are covered with spikes, which wrap those red fruits, which shine like steel needles in the glass light.

Xiaozhi immediately thought of the red bean fruit, but the red bean fruit grows in the low bushes, and it is much larger than this, but I don't know if the taste is similar?

Qingjing Xianjun pulled up Xiaozhi's injured hand at this time, and Xiaozhi noticed that the cloth wrapped in his hand was torn off by Qingjing Xianjun from his sleeve, and the cloth was already covered with blood.

Qingjing Xianjun looked at the hand carefully, and then tore a piece of cloth as white as winter snow from the other sleeve, carefully wrapped it around the little branch's hand, the movement was very light, and the voice was also very soft, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Of course it hurts! There was so much blood shed, so I had to make up for it when I went out.

However, Xiao Zhi felt that it was better to solve the matter in front of him first, so he pointed to the fruit tree and said, "Hui Xianjun, it's much better, I don't know if Xianjun knows what kind of tree it is?"

Qingjing Xianjun glanced at the tree in the middle of the valley and said: "This is the Jing Poppy Fruit, the Ancient Divine Fruit, it is said that the Hibiscus Fairy loved to eat this fruit back then, and planted a whole immortal mountain's Jing Poppy Fruit, but unfortunately in that war of gods and demons, it was all destroyed, but I didn't expect to be able to see it again in the valley of this Tongtian Pavilion." ”

Xiaozhi thought about it and walked towards the poppy tree, but before she could get closer, she was pulled by Qingjing Xianjun, and Xiaozhi was about to speak, and Qingjing Xianjun motioned for her to look at her feet.

Two steps before his feet, he saw that the place in front of his feet was covered with spikes like steel needles, and he was as black as charcoal, and the twig only cared about the red fruit, but did not pay attention to the danger under his feet.

Qingjing Immortal Jun said: "This Jing Poppy Fruit is a rare elixir in the world, it is very difficult to pick, I can't use immortal magic now, otherwise I will cast a spell to pick some for you to eat, and your hand will be better faster." You wait here first, and I'll find a way to pick a few for you. ”

Hearing what Qingjing Xianjun said, Xiaozhi remembered that there were still a lot of red beans and fruits in the bamboo basket on her back, so she said, "You wait first." ”

Xiaozhi asked Qingjing Xianjun to help her take down the bamboo basket, reached out and took out a red bean fruit from it, handed it to Qingjing Xianjun, and said, "Look at this, compared with that Jing poppy fruit, is there any similarity?"

Qingjing Xianjun took the red bean fruit, looked at it carefully, frowned and asked, "Where did you get this fruit?"

Xiaozhi said: "I picked it from the mountain." ”

"What mountain does your family live in?"

"Back to Longshan. ”

Qingjing Immortal Jun pondered for a moment and said, "It's because I'm lonely and unheard, I don't know where Longshan is this time?"

Xiaozhi said: "To be honest, since I went down the mountain, I have forgotten the way back." ”

Qingjing Immortal Jun didn't ask any more, returned the red bean fruit to Xiaozhi, and said: "If that Jing Poppy fruit is a rare elixir in the world, your fruit will be like the elixir in the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun." ”

Hey, such a baby, wouldn't it be a ruin to eat it yourself!

Seeing that Xiaozhi was holding the red fruit, Qingjing Xianjun looked left and right, as if he didn't know what kind of treasure she was holding in her hand before, and urged: "Eat it quickly." ”

Xiao Zhi nodded, opened his mouth and took a bite of the red bean fruit, but this bite in his mouth felt extra precious.

Xiaozhi thought for a while, took out two red bean fruits from the bamboo basket, handed them to Qingjing Xianjun, and said: "Xianjun has suppressed Xianyuan, and he has been walking in this cave for so long, he must be a little hungry, I still have a lot of red bean fruits, you take two to fill your stomach first." ”

Qingjing Xianjun was indeed hungry, he and Yue Lao were trapped in the cave for two days and nights, without eating or drinking, and now when they saw this tempting fruit, they only felt that the gluttonous worms in their stomachs were going to be hooked out, so they were not polite, took the red bean fruit, and said thank you.

Xiao Zhi originally planned to find a way to pick a vitex poppy fruit to taste, but after hearing what Qingjing Immortal Jun said, he was no longer interested.

The two of them each ate a red bean fruit, and as soon as Qingjing Xianjun took the other into his arms, he saw a golden charm appear on the mountain wall on the other side of the valley, and before they could find a place to hide, they saw a woman running in in a hurry.

It's the hosta.

When the hosta saw Xiaozhi, she was happy at first, but before she could laugh, she shrugged her brows sadly.

Xiaozhi asked, "Sister Hosta, why are you here?"

The hosta hurriedly said: "Don't you know that the entire Sizhao Mountain Range is about to burn, and the fire burns from Wucang Mountain to Jufeng Mountain, and then to Liuyun Peak, and several surrounding hills have suffered." The disciples on the mountain thought about fighting the fire at first, but the fire was too big to be saved, so they all tried to escape from the mountain. ”

Xiaozhi exclaimed, "How could it suddenly catch fire?"

"I don't know, I haven't completed the young master's orders, I don't dare to go down the mountain, I can only run all the way here. I won't tell you, you hurry up and find a way to escape, I need to pick this poppy fruit today before I can leave. ”

After the hosta finished speaking, he looked at Qingjing Xianjun, and suddenly knelt down and said, "I don't know if Xianjun can help me pick a thorn poppy fruit, the hosta really has no choice." ”

Qingjing Immortal Jun said coldly: "I have no immortal method now, so I can't help you." ”

Xiaozhi was about to speak, but the hosta stood up suddenly, and was about to step on the spike, Xiaozhi quickly grabbed her, lifted the bamboo basket in front of her, and said, "Don't be impulsive, I ......"

The hosta interrupted her words and said, "Sister Xiaozhi, I'm not impulsive, you see what my hands have been thorned into in order to pick this poppy, since I found out here, I have come every night, but I can't pick the poppy." If this tree is burned by fire, I will have to die to apologize. Today, I will discard these hands, and I will also take them off and go back to restore my life with the young master. ”

I saw that the pair of jade hands that should have been slender and white and tender in the hosta were now covered with small blood holes, and there were more serious places, the skin and flesh were rolling, and the hands were bruised and swollen, which made people unbearable to look at it again. Presumably, that foot is not much better.

Xiao Zhi was about to say more, but saw Li Lingxiao coming out of the spell that flashed with golden light.

"I'm going to see where else you can go?"

Li Lingxiao smiled and pinched the mantra, and in a moment, countless Suo Immortal vines appeared silently on the ground of the entire valley.

Twigs hadn't come up with a countermeasure yet, they were standing in the middle of the valley at this time, and it was too late to run.

This immortal vine is an ancient thing, it is not recorded in the library of Tongtian Pavilion, and the master has never taught her, and she will not be able to think of any spell that can eradicate it for a while. Look at that Li Lingxiao, he is very proficient.

Qingjing Xianjun made a decisive move, he scooped up the waist of the twig with one hand, kicked the hosta into the spike bush with one foot, and hung it on the branch of the Jing Poppy tree by the way......
