Chapter 23 The gentleness that life brings
People in the world only know that nine flowers and one leaf can be used as medicine, but they don't know that the fruit will not mature until it dies.

Only by nourishing it with human blood for two hours and picking the fruit when it turns blood red and using it as medicine can the true nine flowers and one leaf be achieved.

At this time, Lie Jiuqing was so painful that she was sweating all over her body, but she couldn't stop her happiness.

Wrapping the wound with a strip of cloth, she rushed back immediately.

"Boom!"

Before she could even get down the mountain, rolling thunder split the entire sky.

In the violent storm, the sky quickly became dark.

Lie Jiuqing didn't dare to neglect, and kept mobilizing his inner strength, just wanting to go back quickly.

As time went by, the leaves of the nine flowers became more and more vivid, but Lie Jiuqing's face became paler and paler.

But she didn't realize that when the blood touched the ink bracelet on her wrist, it would be absorbed by it little by little, making it more and more shiny.

Just after Shen hour, it became terribly dark, and Lie Jiuqing finally came back.

When she arrived outside the city gate, she was close to exhaustion.

Her legs felt like lead, and her throat hurt with every breath she took.

But even so, she still summoned up her inner strength to reach the outside of Chitose Mansion.

She felt like she would collapse at any moment and had to knock on the door with all her strength.

When the servants came to open the door, they were startled.

Lie Jiuqing's face turned pale, and his body was all wet. But what was even more terrifying was that the raindrops dripping on the ground were all blood-colored!

"Where is Qinyi?"

Qin Yi heard the exclamations of the servants and rushed over immediately. She was also frightened by the extremely embarrassed Lie Jiuqing, "Where are you injured?"

"Take me to the pharmacy..."

Lie Jiuqing was on the verge of falling. Qin Yi was startled and quickly went up to help him.

However, there was a figure who was faster and pulled her into his arms.

Wen Rong's face turned livid when he saw the blood on the ground, and he immediately shouted, "Call the doctor!"

Lie Jiuqing's eyes were in a trance, and his mind was at its limit. He couldn't think at all. He just relied on instinct and pulled Wen Rong's collar and kept repeating.

"Pharmacy, take me to the pharmacy!" Wen Rong took her to the pharmacy with a terrifying attitude.

Before he put her down, Lie Jiuqing struggled desperately to push him down to find medicine.

"Ginseng... I want ginseng..."

The blood on her body dyed Wen Rong's white clothes red, and his suppressed anger finally broke out, and he grabbed her arm hard and was about to get angry.

"Lie Jiuqing!"

"Do not touch me!"

Lie Jiuqing screamed and threw him away, and quickly opened his sleeves to look at Jiuhua Yiye.

Wen Rong was caught off guard, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he saw a scene he would never forget.

Lie Jiuqing's slender and white arms were all red, and what was even more shocking were the gorgeous flowers blooming in the flesh.

Nine flowers and one leaf, she found it and nourished it with her own body!

Wen Rong clenched his fists, and his narrow eyes gradually became bloodshot due to various complicated emotions.

For the first time, he knew that it was so painful to love and hate at the same time!

Qin Yi looked at this scene stiffly, her mind going blank.

They have been looking for Nine Flowers and One Leaf for many years, and now they are right in front of them, and they actually got it through this bloody method.

Lie Jiuqing searched and couldn't find ginseng. He almost broke down and cried, and instinctively asked Wen Rong for help.

"Wen Rong, ginseng, where is my thousand-year-old ginseng?"

Wen Rong looked at her desperate search, gritted his teeth and said, "Go get it!"

Qin Yi immediately brought over the thousand-year-old ginseng left by Lie Jiuqing in Wen Rong's palace.

Seeing the ginseng, Lie Jiuqing obviously relaxed. She used the last bit of her strength to pluck the branches with nine flowers and one leaf and stuffed them into the ginseng.

"Concoct medicine immediately!"

After saying that, Lie Jiuqing fainted.

Wen Rong hugged her with trembling hands, but he didn't even look at Jiuhua Yiye.
