C61 (1/2)
Yue Luo Xue's eyes slightly flashed, and almost subconsciously, she moved. One hand grabbed her walking stick, and the other hand held onto the old granny's arm. The moment their bodies touched, the old granny's body suddenly moved back, pulling away from Yue Luo Xue.
”Grandma, you scared me a bit. Are you alright?” Yue Luo Xue asked in concern.
The grandma shook her head. ”Nothing. You can stay here peacefully for the next two days.”
Yue Luo Xue did not say anything else. This old lady was extremely mysterious, although sshe had only touched her lightly just now, he could feel the strong life force in her body.
Since she wanted to keep him here, Yue Luo Xue decided to stay in peace. He wanted to see what this old granny actually wanted to do, since they were already two days late, so what if he was two days late?
He just didn't know if Na Lan Rong Xuan would find out that he had gone missing, or not. If he wasn't needed, he probably wouldn't have been able to think of a way to pay attention to where he was.
She had saved him twice before. If she were to be ignored like this, she would feel a little disappointed.
”Xiao Qian, what happened after I fainted?” After Yue Luo Xue finished speaking, she realized that the Thousand Revolution Gu in her dantian had already begun to fall into deep sleep.
This was the sign that Xiao Qian was about to level up. The two of them had been together for seven years, and she was clear about this point.
After making up his mind, Yue Luo Xue decided to familiarize himself with the environment first. This old lady had baked a lot of medicine, and other than a few, almost all of them were related to Gu. Yue Luo Xue roughly estimated that this old lady had at least seven Gu worms.
The number of Gu worms in the Gu Master was a Gu worm that had only contracted with the Gu Master. This Gu worm would follow its owner for a lifetime, until one of the two died.
As for the other Gu worms that the Gu Master could temporarily use, they would not be counted as one of the Gu Master's Gu worms, because entering into a contract would create a huge burden on one's mental strength. In other words, the higher the rank, the stronger the mental strength, and the more Gu worms that could form a contract.
Right now, Yue Luo Xue had only contracted a single insect as a contract with a Thousand Revolution Gu. Using the words of the Thousand Revolution Gu, it meant that with it as their vital Gu, how could Yue Luo Xue fancy other Gu worms?
Of course, she still carried around a lot of Gu worms with her, and although she did not make any contract, she could use them immediately. This method was learned from the [Heaven's Path Gu Technique], and the Myriad Gu Zhenren used this method to control ten thousand Gu.
Taking down every single medicinal herb in her mind, although the grandma had a strange temper, she had saved her life no matter what. Therefore, she had the intention of guarding against others, but she didn't have any intention of harming them.
Then, he looked around and found that they were in a special place. It seemed like they were in a deep hole, and there was a vertical cliff all around. The cliff wasn't big, and it didn't look like the cliff he fell off.
Yue Luo Xue's eyes could not help but narrow. The trees at the bottom of the abyss were lush, and there were even various types of medicinal herbs. However, the surrounding cliffs were all extremely smooth, and there were no plants.
The old granny stood inside the cave as she turned her head to look at Yun Zuiyue. Seeing that she was actually interested in looking at the medicinal ingredients, she began to observe the surrounding terrain. Although her expression was somewhat vexed, she did not panic.
A pair of eyes hidden under a black cloak flashed as they turned around and walked into the cave.
Yue Luo Xue did not immediately return. Instead, shshewent into a nearby forest, and when she came back, he carried a pile of herbs, and even picked a pheasant. She waved her hand at the old granny: ”Grandma, I'm back!”
That bright and beautiful smile almost made people unable to shift their gaze away, yet the old granny merely acknowledged it. Her gaze swept across the medicinal ingredients Yue Luo Xue had picked, and suddenly stopped, reaching out to pick one out of the pile.
”This is not a Black Leaf Lotus. Although it looks almost identical, the third stalk has a thin layer of fur. The real Black Leaf Lotus does not have that.”
Yue Luo Xue opened her eyes wide, as if she had just realized something, and said: ”Really, I didn't even notice, Grandma, your medical skills are really powerful, I only saw you helping out after drying up so many medicinal herbs, I didn't expect you to almost help me out.”
”It's not that I'm unhelpful. This lotus root is also a type of medicinal herb. However, its medicinal properties are different from that of the Ink Leaf Lotus...”
Speaking of ingredients, the old granny seemed to be very patient. She explained things to Yue Luo Xue properly, and Yue Luo Xue listened attentively, as if she was a good student.
She knew that it wasn't the Ink Leaf Lotus, because she had intentionally put that lotus in there. She could vaguely sense that this old lady was probing her, so she deliberately tried to confuse her.
As expected, most of his experience could not be obtained from the Thousand Revolution Treasury, thus Yue Luo Xue was even more shameless and had a heated discussion with the old granny.
There were two groups of people moving under the cliff. One group was Liu Cheng Feng's people, and with the reason that the fugitive they were chasing was hiding inside, they searched the cliff fair and square, almost searching through the entire place. The other group was made up of's people.
”Sigh, I don't know what kind of fugitive it is. Why would they come to such a place? I had thought that being transferred back to the capital would make me happy, but I didn't expect that it would still be hard work.” A guard complained as he searched.
The guard next to him didn't have any reaction. His face looked as if it had been scalded, yet was also as if it had been slashed by a sharp knife. Not a single part of his face was intact.
”Hey, Yu Zeng, don't be so serious, you don't need to pay anymore.”
