Chapter XVIII: The Second Gate
It was still the hazy fog that swirled in all directions, and it was too far to see, only the mountain peaks in the fog loomed, and there was silence nearby, no wind, no sound.
Su Ming looked at the mountain in the mist, this was the second time he had come here, the second time he had re-examined the strange peak in this position, especially when he thought of the countless strange words and patterns carved on this mountain, Su Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
He took a deep breath, looked down at the pendant on his chest, the black fragments on it had disappeared, and pinched his body, Su Ming was sure once again that he was not in the dream realm, but really appeared here.
Then he put his hand in his bosom, and seeing that the vials containing the dust were still behind, his eyes flashed, and he walked briskly into the mist ahead, and in a short time he came to the foot of the mountain, and when he stepped into the passage.
There was no pause all the way, until he came to the stone door in the passage, looking at the center of the circle of lines on the familiar stone door, the fifteen small holes, Su Ming hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth and stepped forward to take out the medicine bottle from his arms, poured out one pill, pinched it with two fingers, and put it into the first of the fifteen small holes.
Almost as soon as his fingers touched the small hole in the stone door, Su Ming immediately felt a faint suction force suddenly rise from the small hole, and he sucked the medicinal stone in his fingers into it.
Su Ming's expression was solemn and vigilant, he didn't know if his judgment was correct, and he didn't know what would happen after the fifteen small holes were filled, but he thought about this trip for a long time, and was faintly full of expectations.
didn't act rashly, after the first small hole sucked up the medicine stone, Su Ming looked at it intently, but after half a sound, the small hole was still as usual, without the slightest change.
Su Ming scratched his head, and in his contemplation, he simply took out a medicinal stone again and put it into the second small hole, so as to continue, when he put all the fifteen medicinal stones in distress, his heart became even more nervous.
"Fifteen medicinal stones, if there is no change, then it will all be wasted......" Su Ming was looking at the fifteen small holes nervously, but at this moment, suddenly a soft light suddenly emanated from the fifteen small holes.
Su Ming's spirits perked up, and he hurriedly took a few steps back, but saw that on the stone door, with the light of the fifteen small holes, it became brighter and brighter, and the circle of lines on the entire stone door seemed to be alive, slowly running, and after a while, it was connected into a piece, like a whirlpool, rotating quickly.
As it rotated, the light in the fifteen small holes seemed to be sucked back into the whirlpool little by little, making the stone gate shrouded in a streamer, and there was a roaring sound that suddenly rose, echoing in this passage, deafening, so that Su Ming's body couldn't help but appear ten blood lines, and the qi and blood rolled all over his body, subconsciously resisting.
The rumbling sound lasted for a while, but I saw fifteen wisps of green smoke coming out of the fifteen small holes, as if the medicinal stones in them had been directly turned into cigarettes, and after the fifteen wisps of green smoke appeared, the huge stone door began to tremble, and in the middle of it, a straight gap suddenly appeared.
The gap connected up and down, and then the stone door slowly moved to both sides in front of Su Ming, and it opened!
Su Ming's heart was pounding, he looked at this scene, his heart shook, and it wasn't until the stone door was fully opened that he gasped, behind the stone door, there was no passage, but a small stone room.
The walls around the stone chamber were not smooth, but had carved patterns, and there was a closed door on the wall directly in front of it.
On the roof of this stone room, there are some small stones that faintly emit light, blending into the wall, and there is a faint fragrance emitting, which makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.
Su Ming's eyes flashed, and he walked slowly in a cautious manner, his eyes swept over the walls around the stone room, and he saw that in the carved pictures on the walls, which were similar to what he had seen in the passage before, they were all figures with ** bodies scattered and scattered, refining medicine stones in a primitive atmosphere.
When Su Ming first entered this place, he would be confused when he saw such pictures, but at this moment, with the success of its quenching and the extra knowledge in his memory, he could already understand a lot when he looked at these pictures again.
The figures in those pictures were refining different medicinal stones, Su Ming looked at them, and couldn't help but be immersed in them, and after confirming them with his own experience one by one, he seemed to be obsessed and forgot the passage of time.
He often walked a few quick steps after looking at the next one, and he didn't know how long it had passed, and when he had seen all the patterns, his eyes fell on the closed door of the stone room.
This is a stone door that is slightly different from the first door before, it is pitch black throughout, faintly exuding bursts of fragrance, like the stone quality of this door is very strange.
And there is a sense of heaviness, and there is a pattern on it, but the pattern is a huge desolate ding, and there are bursts of smoke rising from it, which is quite realistic, Su Ming looked at it, and there was a faint illusion that this was not a pattern, but a real desolate ding that was being quenched.
"If I have such a desolate ding, it will be good......" Su Ming looked at it a few more times with envy.
Above and on both sides of this desolate ding, he saw several different herbs, and immediately became energetic, and looked carefully, the purpose of his coming here was to see if there were any other ways to configure medicinal stones.
On the left side of the desolate pattern, there are seven kinds of herbs listed, and five of the seven are exactly the medicine for refining the dust and dispersing them, as for the two extra ones, Su Ming has never seen them, and he looked at them for a while, and remembered their appearance firmly.
Under this prescription, eight small holes were arranged on the stone door.
As for the right side of the desolate pattern, there are eight kinds of herbs, and like the prescription on the left, five of these eight herbs are still the things needed to refine and clear the dust.
The three extra ones, Su Ming's eyes lit up after looking at them, and there were two of them that he knew, but they were not common.
Also underneath this prescription, there are still small holes, but there are slightly more of them than on the left side, there are twelve.
As for the third prescription above the desolate pattern, when Su Ming looked at it, his expression slowly became extremely solemn. This recipe is not a plant or tree, but three patterns that make people look at it.
The first is a python tail scale, the second is the ninth leg of a nine-legged spider, and the third is a palm-sized pitch-black figure with the third finger of his right hand.
What's even more strange is that under this third prescription, there are no small holes, as if this medicine stone is too difficult to refine, so it is not forcibly required to be refined.
Su Ming pondered for a moment, then retracted his gaze and approached the stone gate, raised his right hand, and pressed it on it without hesitation, and suddenly the desolate pattern of the stone gate emitted a dazzling ghostly light, permeating Su Ming's body.
After a period of discomfort, Su Ming's mind once again had a wisp of memory, and he even obtained the refining methods and names of these three medicinal stones.
"South Scattered!" Su Ming's gaze swept to the left of the desolate pattern, and then looked to the right.
"The spirit of the mountain is scattered...... As for this last one...... "Su Ming looked at the strange prescription above the Shimen Desolate Ding pattern and muttered to himself.
Su Ming was thinking about it, the faint light outside his body gradually dimmed, and the light on the entire stone gate was also faint, when the light all dissipated, Su Ming immediately saw a flower in front of him, he was not nervous, he had such an experience once before, there seemed to be a strange whistling in his ears, when the whistling sound ended, his eyes slowly became clear, and he was still in his room in the tribe.
Su Ming took a deep breath, immediately walked to the door, moved his chair and pushed the door open, it was still dark outside, the stars were shining in the sky, there was silence all around, and the night wind was blowing, revealing coolness.
It's just that there is a faint white line in the sky in the distance, which is obviously about to dawn.
"The time inside and outside should be about the same......" Su Ming closed the door, sat down cross-legged again, chin on crutches, and pondered.
"The refining methods of these three medicinal stones are different, and I have never seen those two herbs in the Nan Discrete Prescription, so I can ignore it for now, as for ...... ......Su Ming's pupils contracted slightly.
"This scatter is not made of plants and trees, and the things needed are too strange, but in the memories obtained, the vision that appears after this scatter is connected is extremely amazing!" Su Ming recalled the figure he saw in the memory he had obtained before in his mind, and after refining it into Nashensan, it actually faintly triggered the change of color of the heavens and the earth, and the situation of the wind and clouds being reversed, and he couldn't help but be moved.
"If this medicine stone can be refined, it must be amazing......! Even the stone door did not give a small hole, obviously this scattered refining, quite difficult...... Therefore, it has nothing to do with opening this door. Su Ming pondered for a while, and guessed seven, seven, eight, eight.
"The only thing that can be refined at the moment is that the mountain spirit is scattered, and I know two of the three extra herbs...... Although they don't have them in their hands, there must be a lot of them in the Tibetan pharmacies in the tribe. ”
While Su Ming was thinking, the sky outside gradually brightened, and a new day slowly arrived.
Although he didn't rest all night, Su Ming didn't have the slightest sleepiness, this feeling was extremely obvious after he reached the second layer of the Blood Coagulation Realm, as if he had a lot of energy, unless he stayed up like this for several days in a row, otherwise, there would not be the slightest sense of exhaustion.
At dawn, when the tribesmen began a busy day, Su Ming washed up, and walked to a house not far away from the tribe, which was made of grass and trees, surrounded by fences, and guarded by clansmen at all times.
cough, I didn't write a word of the text today...... However, the outline is a lot more complete, and while sorting it out, I am excited......
