Chapter 8: Dragon's Blood
"Drive, drive!" More than a dozen teenagers rushed out of the backyard of the Xiao family on horses, the first one had a dark complexion, bright eyes, and a light smile on the corner of his mouth, naturally he was unintentional. Behind them were Xiao Zheng and Mo Chongshan, and then their playmates. A group of teenagers, riding horses and whips, rushed into the street, and passers-by flashed one after another, casting all kinds of eyes. The few are envious, the middle is careful, and the old are unscrupulous.
A group of people crossed the street, went straight to the Lanjiang River, crossed the Lanjiang Bridge, went up the river along the bank, rushed out of the city gate, and stepped into the path.
"Boss," Xiao Zheng shouted, "don't worry, we'll go wherever you go?"
Wuxin didn't stop, just spurred the horse.
Xiao Zheng secretly thought: It is estimated that after hearing about the importance of the Medicine King to Tianqu City, the boss knew that he had caused a big disaster and decided to leave, so he borrowed a horse from him. Otherwise, he should go home at this time and ask his father or grandfather to find a way for him.
"Chongshan, do you regret it?" Xiao Zheng asked.
Mo Chongshan tilted his head, smiled and shook his head.
"Brothers, catch up with the boss. Xiao Zheng shouted, waving his horsewhip. Suddenly, rows of green went backwards, and the bushes came into view.
Walk through the woods, follow the path, rush to the top of the hill, unintentionally kick the saddle and pull the reins, and the horses raise their hooves and neigh.
"Phew!"
Xiao Zheng and Mo Chongshan rushed up, tightened the reins, and stood on the left and right of Wuxin, and the rest of the people lined up on both sides, and fifteen teenagers rode horses, lined up in a line. The crowd looked ahead. That's a withered yellow world, that's the Ye family... Medicine Garden. Endless.
"Boss, aren't you trying to run away?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Escape?" Wuxin frowned slightly, "What do you say?"
"You were on the street looking panicked and saying, 'Go, go.'" I asked why, but you told me not to ask more! I thought you were leaving, and when I got home, I brought all the silver tickets from my cash drawer!" Xiao Zheng said, pulling out a wad from his bosom.
"Forehead...... "Wuxin wanted to laugh in his heart, but he felt inexplicably warm, and said: "Xiao Zheng, remember, I, Ye Wuxin, will not escape, no matter what!"
Xiao Zheng was stunned for a moment, he rarely saw this kind of expression without a heart - his eyes were firm, and his tone was calm. But every time I see this look, I do what I say.
"Then what are you doing in the medicine garden?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Because the problem is with the medicinal herbs!" Wuxin showed a cynical look again, and rode leisurely down the hill.
Xiao Zheng looked at the back of Wuxin, and finally understood where the gap between himself and him was. Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.
Ye Mansion, Ye Changchun sat on the stone chair, looking at Ye Changqing who was sitting in a wheelchair bathing in the sun and looking at the "Taoist Classic" with a calm face.
"Don't pretend, your book is reversed. Ye Changchun said.
Ye Changqing was stunned, looked at the "Daodian" in his hand, and showed a wry smile.
"How many years?" Ye Changchun raised his head and said to himself, "Fifteen years!"
Ye Changqing raised his head, looked at the luxuriant locust leaves, and said, "Yes, it's been fifteen years, and they've grown so big that they can already shelter me from the wind and rain." ”
"I don't prune and prune, the branches and leaves have already passed through the courtyard wall and run outside!" Ye Changchun looked at it and said with a smile: "But the main trunk is not crooked, but it is straight." ”
"I used to want to take care of it carefully, and I wanted to prune it from time to time!" Ye Changqing sighed, "Just let him grow savagely and freely, anyway, the locust tree is easy to live." ”
"What is easy to live is also easy to die!" Ye Changchun got up, "Find a time to prune and prune well! He has already blocked too much sunlight, and your yard has become a little gloomy." ”
"They ......," Ye Changqing said, "What do you say?"
Ye Changchun, who was about to leave, stopped his figure and sighed: "Open the altar." ”
"When?"
"The eighth day of the next month. ”
"Settled?"
"It's settled, the decision of the United Presbyterian Church. ”
"Aren't you afraid I'll send him away?"
Ye Changchun paused slightly, did not answer, and walked out of the small courtyard directly.
Ye Changqing raised his head, the sunset was far away, and the lush locust leaves made the small courtyard look indeed a little gloomy, and muttered, "It's time to prune." ”
"Lie Yuan!" Ye Changqing shouted.
"Master, please speak!" Lieyuan's figure appeared behind him.
"Haven't you found the young master yet?"
"Out of town. ”
"Where did you go? ”
"Medicine Garden. ”
"What is he doing in the medicine garden?"
"I don't know. ”
"Did I get what I had prepared?"
"Okay, just, are you sure you do this?"
"Of course, remember, don't give a thing. Ye Changqing said solemnly.
Luo Xue stood in front of the window, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes, looking at her aunt who was pruning potted plants with a smile on her face in the yard, she knew that this was a signal.
My aunt smiled, something was wrong. This is what Luo Xue has deeply experienced in her past interactions.
After a while, I saw someone enter the courtyard and whisper in my aunt's ear, and then, the smile on her face became brighter, she sorted out her clothes, and walked out of the courtyard quickly.
When she entered the courtyard again, there were five more people behind her. The leader is a handsome young man, with a golden silk dress, a face like a crown of jade, starry eyes and bright teeth, handsome and masculine, and the most eye-catching thing is his bright smile that can easily infect people.
The uneasiness in Luo Xue's eyes disappeared, replaced by surprise. She couldn't wait to push open the window and shouted, "Brother Chiyue." ”
The silver bell-like voice echoed in the small courtyard, the young man raised his head, his smile froze, and the girl in his sight stood against the window, white clothes were better than snow, her eyes were bright, her onion nose was erect, and her smile was like a flower, like a Tianshan Snow Lotus, white and flawless, transparent and pure.
"Brother Chi Yue, what is your expression?" Luo Xue asked.
The young man was stunned, and then smiled: "What a big surprise." I haven't seen her for two years, and the little girl has become more and more beautiful. ”
Hearing the words of praise, Luo Xue couldn't help but be shy, bowed her head with a smile, and a blush appeared on her face.
The boy was stunned again, Xu thought of something, and the smile returned to his face.
The aunt next to her, who was already smiling, was even more prosperous at this time.
"Cher, you haven't entered the house yet! My aunt reproached.
Aunt Luo Rou laughed, this is the nature of Sister Xue'er, so it's good. The young man smiled and followed Luo Rou into the house.
"Why did Young Master Nangong come to Tianqu City, could it be that it was also for the 'Chao Immortal Society'?" Luo Rou asked.
"Of course not, the most important thing is to see Sister Luo Xue, who is a childhood sweetheart!" Nangong Chiyue said with a smile, "When I reached the age of training, my family said that I wanted to choose a place, and I thought that Sister Luo Xue was in Tianqu City, so I came." ”
The smile in Luo Rou's eyes did not decrease: "This girl is so crazy that there is no boundary!"
Nangong Chiyue clapped his hands violently and said, "Oops, I almost forgot, quickly take out the things I prepared." ”
Nangong Chiyue walked out of a person, and three boxes suddenly appeared in his hands.
"A small gift, not a tribute. As he spoke, he personally handed two boxes to Luo Rou and one to Luo Xue.
Luo Rou looked at the square wooden box with the seal of the Nangong family, and quickly opened it, her eyes were shocked, and the mist emitted from the box revealed a crystal clear red ice flower.
"Cold Bone Plum?" Luo Rou exclaimed.
"I heard that my aunt is in a bottleneck and needs this flower ......"
"Young Master Nangong is polite. Luo Rou interrupted, quickly put it away, and then opened another box, looked at the contents, and looked at Nangong Chiyue in a daze.
"It's... This is... Dragon's Heart?"
"Naturally, my aunt needs to hand it over to Uncle Lo, which will help him recover. Nangong Chiyue said with a smile.
Luo Xue was stunned, walked closer in a few steps, saw the contents of the box, and looked at Nangong Chiyue gratefully.
"Now my father's illness can be cured!" Luo Xue said with a smile.
"Yes, my eldest brother's illness can finally be cured!" Luo Rou said.
The sun set, and hundreds of withered yellow herbs were already placed in front of Wuxin. This is the standard medicine that more than a dozen teenagers took half a day to pull out of the medicine garden. (Standard medicine: Each herb has its own color, which is used to evaluate and monitor the growth environment of medicinal herbs.) It is often based on four seasons of red, four seasons of yellow, four seasons of green, four seasons of blue, four seasons of purple, four seasons of white, and four seasons of black, with different color levels, such as four seasons of red, and will be divided into red, dark red, purple red, light red, pink and so on. Correspondingly, it is suitable for growing the corresponding herbs. )
"Boss, why are there so many standard medicines?" Xiao Zheng asked as he put the standard medicine he had just pulled out in front of Wuxin.
"With these standard drugs, won't you be able to find out the cause?"
Xiao Zheng got up, and looked up at the withered yellow from the plains to the rolling hills to the high peaks.
"Strange, why are the trees on the mountain still green, but these herbs are all yellow?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"So it's not normal!" said Wuxin, carefully examining the rhizomes of the herbs, and finding that they had all turned purple and black, and then put the soil brought out from the rhizomes to his nose and sniffed.
"Boss, what did you find?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Poisoned. Wuxin said, "But ......"
"Can medicinal herbs still be poisoned?
"Since these herbs are all withered and yellow, why are the herbs in the medicine garden still alive?
"Could it really be that the Medicine King has manifested his spirit?" Xiao Zhenghu doubted.
"Medicine King, can a holy icon be like this?"
"Then how can you say it, isn't this kind of sign only possible with divine skill and immortal arts?" Xiao Zheng pouted.
"Divine Skill Immortal Technique?" was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: "Such precise control is not something that people can do. Could it be ......" He thought of the demon killer he had met two days ago.
"But is it necessary for the killer to use this method?" he couldn't figure it out, and then turned his attention to the medicinal herbs. He looked at the medicinal herbs in his hand, his nose twitched, and he always felt that there was a faint fishy smell in the aroma of the earth, a kind of bloody smell.
"What kind of poison is this?" Wuxin had a sense of familiarity, déjà vu, but he couldn't remember anything, and it was possible to talk about it every day.
"Hey, boss, when are you going to teach me immortal cultivation?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Almost, when your bones are ...... to build a foundation," Wuxin's eyes lit up, and he murmured, "This is... Dragon's Heart!"
