61. Chapter 61 36 Tianshan Snow Lotus
Xiaoxue's branch in Yecheng is in a valley outside Yecheng. The forest outside the valley is not only full of miasma all year round, but even the trees planted are planted according to the direction of Fuxi's sixty-four hexagrams. If it were not a person who was proficient in the art of Qimen Eight Trigrams, he would only be lost in the forest and die under the miasma.
The valley is a fairyland on earth, with gurgling water, blooming flowers, colorful purples and butterflies flying, so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated and linger.
Yelu Xiu Ge not only praised in his heart, but Xiaoxue really knows how to find a place. This is not only a good place for branch offices, but also a good place to live in seclusion. If one day I get tired of the complicated and troubled life outside, it would be a pleasure to spend the rest of my life here.
While she was making pills under her help, Xiaoxue accompanied Yelu Xiu Ge to every part of the valley. However, now her physical condition is not suitable for long-term activities, so she can only take a few hours to accompany him every day except for eating and sleeping, and she has to rest in bed for other times.
In the afternoon of that day, Xiaoxue accompanied Yelu Xiu Ge for a walk, and the two walked slowly to the north of the valley. Yelu Xiu Ge saw a large area of fiery red flowers planted where they were planted, which was extremely gorgeous. When the breeze blew, the flowers swayed left and right, like balls of beating flames.
He couldn't help but be attracted, so he stepped forward and reached out to pick it.
"Be careful!" Xiaoxue's voice came from behind. It was okay if he didn't call it. As soon as he told him to distract himself, his fingers were stabbed by the thorns on the flower branches.
"You are really, this is a love flower. How can you touch it randomly? [Curiosity kills the cat] Do you know?" Xiaoxue stepped forward and frowned and complained.
"What love flower?" Yelu Xiuge asked in confusion.
Xiaoxue didn't answer, grabbed his hand and looked carefully, and a blood spot appeared on his middle finger. Yelu Xiu Ge's heart moved the moment the two of them touched each other's skin, and suddenly, a sharp pain in his chest, as if he was hammered hatefully by a sledgehammer.
"Do you understand?" Xiaoxue showed an expression of your own 'self-inflicting':'"This love flower is a rare flower in the world. Once a person who is pricked by it has a desire to feel lust in his heart, he will feel unbearable. As he said that, he took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to him, "This is the antidote, take it soon!"
Yelu Xiu Ge was very surprised. He didn't expect that there would be such strange flowers in this world. He took the bottle and was about to speak when suddenly a jingle sound came from behind him.
******************************************************************************
"What's going on?" Yelu Xiu Ge saw that Xiaoxue's expression became solemn, and knew something was wrong.
"There is an external enemy invading!" Xiaoxue replied, looking at the direction of the arrival, but not moving. She did not move, so Yelu Xiu Ge naturally would not move.
"Miss," a girl in green hurried over, her sword in her hand was covered with blood. She came to Xiaoxue, not kneeling, but bowing, "A few unidentified men in black broke into the valley just now."
Yelu Xiu Ge knew her, and she was one of the people in charge of this branch, and it seemed to be called Zhu Jian.
If Yelu Xiu Ge is a modern person, he would think that this name is quite familiar. In fact, it is not only the women in front of him. The names of all the women in this valley are taken from the heroines, supporting actresses, and even some small characters who are soy. There is no way, who made their hall master a fan of Jin Yong! Those who don’t know think that this is a Jin Yong hero meeting!
“What did they do?”
Anger appeared on Zhu Jian's face, "They knocked over the stove where the lady made the pills."
"What?" These people came for her!
"It's because my subordinates are not doing well, please punish me." Zhu Jian looked full of guilt.
Xiaoxue shook her head and asked, "Are you all okay?"
"It's okay, a few sisters were slightly injured. They were just the stove to refine pills..." The pills were destroyed, which means... she could not recover in a short time, "I have sent someone to other branches to pick them up!"
Xiaoxue pondered for a moment: "Since they can find this, they will definitely go to other places." It seems that the person behind this scene is a person who is proficient in poison art and Qimen gossip. Otherwise, how could he break into the layers of mechanisms she arranged so easily?
"Immediately, Fei Ge sent a letter to tell the people of each branch to strengthen the mechanism and defense, and turn on all the mechanisms I designed before. The same is true here. All the mechanisms on the periphery are opened, and they will come again." It seems that she has really underestimated the enemy. She has designed some mechanisms before. Considering the lethality, it is closed on weekdays and will only be activated when a strong enemy attacks.
Today, these people are too fast, and the internal defense people don’t have time to open the mechanism. Fortunately, their purpose is to destroy the pills and not hurt people anymore. Otherwise, [Shadow Hall] will not stop with them! [Shadow Hall] has more than a thousand branches, and it is not an exaggeration to say tens of thousands. It is huge and complicated, and it is definitely not something they can imagine.
"Yes!" Zhu Jian immediately took the order and left.
When Yelu Xiu Ge saw that she was not surprised when encountering things, he handled the subsequent incident in an orderly manner. He couldn't help but secretly say that if she was a man, she would definitely be a talent for planning.
******************************************************************************
Xiaoxue and Yelu Xiuge returned to the lodge and saw that the entire lodge was as calm as if nothing had happened. No one showed panic and fear on his face. Everyone was still doing their own things, and the order was not at all messed up.
When they saw her coming back, their faces showed a look of guilt, which was their negligence, which caused outsiders to break into the valley and destroy the lady's pill! They didn't know the real effect of the pill, they only knew that it was very important to the lady.
Xiaoxue comforted them a few words, saying that if the pill is destroyed, you can refine it again, as long as they are fine.
Everyone showed gratitude, which was what Xiaoxue was deeply respected. The first time she encountered something, she always cared about her own people, not anything else.
"Are you okay?" Yelu Xiu Ge found that Xiaoxue's face was paler than before, and he was worried.
"It's okay." Xiaoxue shook her head.
"She didn't tell the truth!" Yelu Xiu Ge remembered what Xiaoxue said before. She said that the raw materials for refining her recovery pills are quite precious, which is rare in the world. Nowadays, these materials have been collected by her for a lot of financial resources and material resources. Once destroyed, if they are found again, it will take a lot of time and energy. Moreover, it is hard to say whether they can be collected, because some raw materials will grow for hundreds or even thousands of years, while others come from overseas and other countries.
"If there is any difficulty, just tell me, don't you believe me at this point?"
"You are thinking too much. In fact, even if you take this pill, it will only help me temporarily recover, and not cure the root cause. If I use blood to save people next time, I will be like this again." The situation is even worse.
"You mean there is a way to do it once and for all!" Yelu Xiu Ge seemed to see hope.
"Yes, because the raw materials for those pills are difficult to find, I prepared one more just in case, and it is not difficult to find them all. But when it comes to doing it once and for all, these drugs and a medicine induced medicine are needed. But this medicine is even more difficult to find, so I dare not use blood to save people so far."
One is to prevent the secret from being leaked; the other is because once blood is released, you cannot use force for this period before the pill is configured, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable. This time, in order to save Yelu Xiu Ge, she had to make an exception. She couldn't really let her use innocence or force her subordinates to save him with innocence, right?
"What kind of medicine is it? It's so difficult to find?" asked Yelu Xiu Ge.
"Tianshan Snow Lotus!"
Speaking of "Tianshan Snow Lotus", Yelu Xiuge understood that the Tianshan Snow Lotus grew at 6,000 meters above the snow mountain. Not only is there few people and the air is thin, but the place where the snow lotus grows is steep. If you are not careful, you will be buried in the snow mountain forever! The most important thing is that the snow lotus blooms every 700 years, but the flowering period is only three days, which is hard to find!
However, it was not very difficult for him, because he currently has one in his hand.
Before he became a teacher, the task assigned to him was to ask him to go to the top of the snow mountain to find a Tianshan snow lotus. With his perseverance and the martial arts taught by his mentor, he picked the Tianshan snow lotus that only bloomed once every 700 years during the flowering period.
Later, his mentor gave him the Tianshan Snow Lotus and said: This Tianshan Snow Lotus is a rare medicinal material in the world. After taking it, a woman can not only nourish qi and replenish blood, but also maintain beauty. She also said that one day he would use it and asked him to keep it properly. She also taught him how to preserve it so that the medicinal properties of the snow lotus will never fail.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiaoxue asked when she saw him fall into deep thought.
