Chapter 473
Yuli took a tight breath.
This place is located in the depths of the Nether Forest. The environment is harsh and it is extremely difficult to survive. How can there be someone in this cave?
She looked at Shen Chuhan puzzled.
Shen Chuhan thought for a moment, then lowered his voice, "Go in and have a look?"
Yuli nodded.
In order not to startle the snake, Shen Chuhan extinguished the torch and walked lightly into the cave.
The passage is not long, after a few steps, it suddenly becomes clear, a ten-foot-square cave appears in front of you, with a small opening on the top of the cave, and the bright moonlight pours in from the top of the cave.
However, Shen Chuhan's face suddenly changed after seeing what was under the moon.
"Then... what is that?" Yuli took two steps forward, stretched out her hand, and her voice was trembling.
Although Yuli is a woman, she has a tough heart. She has seen many storms and waves over the years, and it is rare for her to show her emotions like this.At this moment, his pupils shrank sharply, his eyes widened and he looked ahead, his face was as pale as paper.
I saw a huge pottery urn on the ground not far away.The pottery urn seems to have been there for a long time, and the outer shell has fallen off, and moss has grown.
In the urn there was a dark object, vaguely seen as a human figure, only above the head was exposed, and the long hair hung down to cover the face.
Xu Shi heard the movement, and when the thing moved, he looked up.Under the bright moonlight, the face covered by the long hair was exposed, a pair of eyes looked straight at him, the pupils were as gray as dead, the face was bloody, and the abscesses were flowing, which was very disgusting.
He really is a living person!
And by the looks of it, she's still a girl.The breathing sound I heard just now probably came from her.
Shen Chuhan frowned, and looked at the person in the urn vigilantly.
Seeing them, the ashen eyes of the person in the urn lit up, and he opened his mouth, screaming "Zhi Zhi Ya Ya" with a very excited expression.
Yuli moved her feet and stepped forward.
Shen Chuhan stretched out his hand to stop her, "Concubine Mother, be careful of fraud."
Yan Li frowned, "I think she's been imprisoned in the urn, she can't move at all except her head, she should be fine, I'll go over and see what's going on."
Shen Chuhan looked it over carefully, then withdrew his hand, "I'll be with you." Then, he took the lead and walked to the pottery urn.
As they got closer, the abscess on the face of the person in the urn became clearer. The yellow pus was mixed with blood, and there was a foul smell, which rushed straight to the nose, which was really disgusting.
Xu Shi saw the undisguised disgust in Shen Chuhan's eyes, the person in the urn lowered his head, covered his face with his hair again, and his voice of "babbling, babbling" also dropped.
Shen Chuhan held his breath and looked carefully.
Inside the pottery urn was a puddle of dark water, with some grass, leaves and tree bark faintly floating in the water.The floating branch on the top layer is painted with mysterious patterns, and upon closer inspection, it turns out to be the torso of a poisonous snake!
Shen Chuhan frowned, and Yuli also noticed some clues.
"In this urn, there seem to be some highly poisonous medicinal materials." Yuli frowned and said.
"The medicine man." Shen Chu coldly spit out two words.
"What?" Yuli looked at him in shock.
"Some people regard this person as a medicine man and use her to test various poisons."
Yuli covered her lips with her hands, her clear eyes were full of shock, "How could someone do such a thing in this kind of place...?"
She looked at the person in the urn, "Did someone arrest you here to be a medicine man? If yes, nod, if not, shake your head."
The man in the urn nodded slowly.
Yuli was startled, and asked again, "What about the other person? Are they still here?"
The person in the urn shook his head first, then nodded again.
Yuli is puzzled.
Shen Chu coldly said, "I was there before, but not now?"
The person in the urn gave two hoarse "ahhh" and nodded.
Shen Chuhan looked around, "It seems that there are still people living in this place, but the owner doesn't know where he is for the time being."
Yan Li said "hmm", suddenly thought of something, looked at the medicine man and asked, "Is there a giant python in this cave?"
The person in the urn opened his pupils suddenly, and nodded hesitantly.
Yanli looked at Shen Chuhan, "The giant python probably escaped to the passage on the left. I haven't seen the shadow of the silver snake root along the way. Do you want to follow it?"
"it is good."
"Then... what about this man?" Yuli glanced at the unrecognizable man in the urn, and spoke hesitantly.
Hearing them talking about themselves, the person in the urn suddenly became excited, "Yi Yi Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya!" A teardrop fell from the corner of his eye as he said something.
Shen Chuhan has always been ruthless, if it was different from usual, he would not talk to him, but seeing Yuli's unbearable look, his eyelashes drooped, "But it's up to the mother and concubine to decide."
Yan Li sighed, "No matter who brought her here, she must have suffered a lot these years. Since we came here, it can be regarded as her good luck. If we can successfully get the silver snake root, we... Get her out."
Rescue or not, it doesn't have much influence on Shen Chuhan, since Yuli said so, he agreed.
Hearing this, the man in the urn finally revealed a little light in his ashen eyes, and made a sound of "嘿嘿嘻嘎嘿", as if to thank him.
Yuli looked at her, and said softly, "We need to deal with the giant python first, and we will come back to you after we succeed, and then I will rescue you. You can wait in peace, okay?"
With tears in their eyes, the man in the urn nodded, watching their figures disappear into the cave, their long eyelashes drooping, tears streaming down their cheeks.
The two left the cave and arrived at the fork in the road just now.
Shen Chuhan glanced at the pitch-black corridor, and said in a deep voice, "Mother, you know, she is exhausted. The venom in the urn is highly poisonous, but it is also a life-sustaining thing. If we rescue her, maybe it won't be long. , she will die."
Yuli sighed, "I know. I just...can't bear to see her suffer here again." Looking up at Shen Chuhan, "Look at her, she's about the same age as Ah Wan."
When Shen Chuhan saw this, he didn't say anything more. He had no intention of caring about the lives of others, and he just reminded him that it was only for Yuli's sake.
He relighted the torch and entered the passage on the left.
The further you go in, the heavier the pungent dampness in the cave, it seems that you are not far from the giant python's lair.
Shen Chuhan frowned in disgust, held his breath, and stepped faster.
After walking for a while, a big cave appeared again, but it was much bigger than the cave on the right.As on the right side, there is an opening on the roof of the cave, and moonlight pours in.
There is a deep pool under the moonlight, the water in the pool is sparkling, a cursory glance shows that there are a lot of herbs growing around the deep pool, but there is no trace of the giant python.
Yan Li's eyes lit up, she pointed at a place and lowered her voice, "That's the silver snake root."
Looking in the direction she pointed, I saw a few plants with red fruits growing beside the rocky pile opposite the cold pool.
"The red fruit is the snake fruit, and the underground roots of the snake fruit are the silver snake roots." Yuli explained.
Shen Chuhan nodded, looked around, saw that there was no sign of the giant python, he couldn't help but frowned, his suspicious eyes fell on the deep pool.
However, since the silver snake root is close at hand, he will not just wait like this.Glancing at Yuli, she signaled her to step back a little, "Concubine Mu, I'll go over and have a look."
"Be careful." Yuli also sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and warned in a deep voice.
"Okay." Shen Chuhan nodded, and jumped forward with his lightness kung fu.
As soon as he walked to the sky above the cold pool, he suddenly saw water splashing in the pool, and a thick snake tail broke through the water, swept it in the air, and hit Shen Chuhan directly.
Shen Chuhan had been on guard for a long time, his eyes turned cold, he turned over and landed on the opposite bank.
The giant python swung its tail out of the pool, with scarlet snake letters and scarlet eyes staring straight at Shen Chuhan, the cold gaze seemed to understand human nature.
Shen Chu curled his lips coldly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and the sword energy brought up the pool of water and struck towards the eyes of the giant python.This giant python is almost mature, its whole body has thick scales, except for the [-]-inch area, the tail and eyes are the weakest.
Sure enough, the water droplets full of internal energy turned into sharp blades, hitting the giant python's eyes, piercing its skin and flesh, making it painful.
Shen Chuhan danced like a water sword, transformed into more sword energy, and attacked the giant python's eyes.
When the giant python was entangled by the sword energy, he clicked on the stone, jumped up, jumped onto the back of the giant python, raised his sword and slashed towards the seven-inch point.
The giant python was very sensitive, instantly aware of the danger, swung its head, and swung its tail towards its back.
Shen Chuhan jumped away and slashed at the tail of the giant python.
If the water sword is very sharp, Shen Chuhan used a lot of internal strength, and the angle is just right, this sword cut off the tail of the giant python!
The tail was bounced to the shore, and blood flowed from the fracture, instantly staining most of the pool of water red.
The giant python bounced in pain, jumped out of the water, turned its head and opened its bloody mouth, and chased after Shen Chuhan, its eyes were red like blood, which made people inexplicably surprised.
Shen Chuhan's expression remained unchanged, and he dodged lightly.
Although this cave is big, it is no bigger than the outside. The giant python is huge, so it is naturally inconvenient to move. As a result, Shen Chuhan's lightness and ingenuity have the upper hand.
After several back and forth chases like this, Shen Chuhan was unscathed, but the giant python was so tired that it stopped attacking and crawled in the pool, as if waiting for an opportunity to move.
Shen Chuhan did not take it lightly, standing on a towering stone, staring at the giant python with eagle-like eyes, blood dripping from the tip of the sword.
One person and one snake, no one moved first, only the cold moonlight and only a few wind sounds.
Suddenly, the giant python jumped up from the pool, opened its bloody mouth, and attacked Shen Chuhan.
Shen Chuhan jumped away lightly.
Unexpectedly, the giant python turned around abruptly, turned its head and bit Yuli who was standing on the shore.
Yan Li frowned, although she was a little flustered, she quickly calmed down, a faint blue light flickered between her fingertips, and the pool of water in front of her rose "crashing" and merged into a huge water curtain.
The giant python didn't check it, but bumped its head on it, got dizzy and fell into the pool with a "bang".
Shen Chuhan's heart fell, seeing that the timing was just right, he jumped up and landed on the back of the giant python, and the sharp sword he held high fell straight down, stabbing at the python's seven inches.
The giant python was startled, and kept swinging its body, trying to throw Shen Chuhan off.
Shen Chuhan's eyes became colder, he clenched the hilt of the sword tightly, mobilized his inner strength, and quickly stepped back.
Starting from the seven-inch heart on the python's back, a huge gash was cut out immediately, the flesh and blood turned outward, and the entire back was cut open.The giant python struggled and swung a few times, but finally lost its vitality, its high head fell heavily, and fell into the cold pool, splashing huge water.
Seeing that he could only breathe in but not out, Shen Chuhan jumped off the giant python and landed on the shore, "Mother Concubine, are you alright?"
Yuli wiped her face with her hand, then shook her head, "I'm fine. Is the python dead?"
"It's not completely dead yet, I want to take its guts, it's best if it still has a bit of breath."
"Okay, I'm going to pick silver snake roots." Yu Li said, and Yu Ling went to the other side, carefully pulled out a few intact snake fruits on the bank, and put them in his backpack.
Looking back, Shen Chuhan was already disemboweling the giant python, and within a short while, he took out a bright yellow bead from its belly.
The two met on the shore.
Looking at the thing in Shen Chuhan's hands, Yuli sighed slightly, with such a huge inner gut, it can be seen that this giant python has lived here for nearly a hundred years, and it has absorbed how much spiritual energy from heaven and earth to get this bead.
People who practice martial arts take it, and their internal strength can be refined. Fulan people take it, and their spiritual power can greatly improve. Even ordinary people can have the effect of prolonging life.
It is indeed a rare treasure.
Shen Chuhan put away the guts, saw that the giant python had lost its breath, looked back at Yuli, "Mother Concubine, let's go."
Yuli nodded, and the two turned back along the way they came.
At the fork in the road, Yuli was still thinking about the medicine man in the urn, so she went into the cave along the corridor on the right.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the person in the urn hurriedly raised his head, seeing that Shen Chuhan and Yuli had left and returned, his eyes suddenly lit up, such clear eyes made her ugly face even more pleasing to the eye.
Yuli walked up to her side, seeing her inhuman appearance, she barely heard a sigh, "Girl, I don't know who you are, and I don't know why you are here. We can save you." Go out, but you have to know that once you leave these potions, you are very likely to die soon. So, are you willing?"
The person in the urn nodded like pounding garlic.
Yuli's heart softened, she looked at Shen Chuhan, "In that case, let's rescue him."
Shen Chuhan agreed.
Even so, how to take it out is also a problem.
Yan Li looked at it, although the girl had all her hands and feet, but she was weak and drooping, as if her tendons and tendons had been severed, it was definitely impossible for her to walk by herself.
But if you ask them to recite——
I probably couldn't carry it on my back, and as for Shen Chuhan, Yuli couldn't open his mouth even after taking a look at him with a gloomy face.
Shen Chuhan, she knew something about Shen Chuhan in her previous life, she has a very indifferent temper, and she has heard Song Qinghuan say that she has a cleanliness habit.
If she opened her mouth, for Ah Wan's sake, he might not refuse, but this matter had nothing to do with him, it was just a moment of kindness on her part, and for Ah Wan's sake, she didn't want to embarrass him.
But in this way, it seems to be in a dead end.
But the man in the urn seemed extremely intelligent, as if he could see Yuli's embarrassment, he screamed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Yanli followed her gaze, showing a strange look.
I saw that there were several rollers installed under the pottery urn, but because it was covered with moss, I didn't see it for a while.It must be that the cave owner wants to use the girl in the urn to make medicine, but also needs to push her around, so this gave them a way to take the girl out.
Seeing this, Shen Chuhan raised his eyebrows, "Since that's the case, let's set off as soon as possible, lest the owner of the cave come back, and there will be another fierce battle. Can the concubine still hold on?"
Yuli nodded, "I'm fine, let's go." As she spoke, she wanted to push the pottery urn.
"I'll do it." Shen Chuhan said, and with a flick of his hand, the pottery urn automatically rolled towards the entrance of the cave.
After going out of the corridor and reaching the fork, Shen Chuhan paused, "Mother Concubine, I'll go in and have a look." All I could see was the entrance of the hole.
"Okay." Yuli nodded, waiting at the entrance of the cave, "Be careful."
Shen Chuhan didn't stay in the cave for long, and soon came out, the burden on his back seemed to be a lot heavier.
"How?" Yuli asked, using spiritual power to move the pottery urn, and walked out of the cave.
"Sure enough, there are people living here. The cave has been packed into a room. There are tables, chairs, beds, and a lot of unmade pills. They look quite precious, so I wiped them all out." He took a picture. Taking pictures of the burden behind him, there was a rare ray of light in his eyes.
"I don't think the owner of this cave is a kind person. It's not just the medicine man in the urn. I think the giant python in the cave was also raised by him. It's just that there is a thin layer of dust on the table, and it seems that some time has passed. No one lives anymore."
Yuli frowned upon hearing this.
The Nether Forest has always been a forbidden place for the clan, who would actually live here for a long time?
While talking, several people left the cave. It was already dawn, the morning sun fell through the gaps in the branches and leaves, and the hideous forest at night appeared somewhat peaceful. No wonder the owner of the cave chose this place to settle down.
It's just that Shen Chuhan knows that the so-called peace is just an illusion. Even if he has successfully obtained the seven herbs, it is not easy to get out of this dark forest, especially if he still has a burden.
She withdrew her scrutinizing gaze and looked at Yuli, "Mother Concubine, let's go." As he said that, with a wave of his hand, the pottery urn began to move forward.
*
Yitongfang, Wanfu.
In Shen Chuhan's absence these few days, Song Qinghuan always slept restlessly, woke up very early in the morning, but became lethargic after lunch, and often slept until dusk.
She opened her eyes, staring at the silk gauze curtain above her head in a daze.
Shen Chuhan and his concubine mother have been away for several days, and they don't know what the situation is now.
Just thinking about it, I suddenly felt a movement in my stomach.
Surprise flashed in her eyes, she put her hands on her stomach, and said softly, "Does the baby miss daddy and grandmother too? Don't worry, daddy and grandmother will be back soon."
As if in response to her words, the baby in her stomach kicked her again.
With a slight smile on Song Qinghuan's cheeks, she simply continued to lie down, chatting casually with the baby in her womb.
After lying down for a while, Dongfang showed a fishy belly, and the sun was gradually rising. She just got up and called Shen Xing to come in and take care of her grooming.
Junxi came over at breakfast.
Afraid that she would be worried, Jun Xi has been by her side for the past few days.
After having breakfast with Jun Xi, and asked someone to remove the dishes, Song Qinghuan looked at Shen Xing, "How is Xuan Ying?"
"Still unconscious, but fortunately breathing steadily."
"What about Liuyue?"
"I'm so worried, it's hard to eat." Shen Xing said honestly.
Song Qinghuan sighed.She knew that although Liuyue seemed to have a joking personality, she was actually very affectionate, but since she had a crush on Xuanying, she would only give up her heart.
She originally thought that things like feelings would go with the flow, and it was inconvenient for her to intervene.But she never thought that Xuanying was an inexperienced person, and Liuyue was thin-skinned, and after coming and going, this matter was put on hold again, and it seemed that she had to push it.
When Xuanying woke up this time and they returned to Lindu, she decided to organize their wedding.
When I think about it this way, I can't help but lose my mind.
"What is Huan'er thinking?"
Song Qing laughed happily, "I'm thinking about Liu Yue and Xuan Ying."
Jun Xi pursed his lips and smiled, "Since the two of them agree with each other, I think you can make the decision for them."
"That's what I thought too. I'll take care of this matter when I return to Lindu."
Speaking of Lindu, Jun Xi sighed, "I don't know what happened to Anian and Youyou."
"I'm sorry for letting my sister-in-law stay with us on the island for so long."
Jun Xi cast a glance at her, "What nonsense are you talking about? Yuheng Island is the one I want to follow, and I haven't been of much help these days. If you want to say sorry, it should be me."
Song Qing smiled happily, "I didn't expect to be out for so long, don't you worry about me as a mother after you go back."
"How come?" Jun Xi replied with a smile, "Youyou is very smart, no one will forget you as a beautiful mother."
Song Qinghuan let out a long breath, "I really want to end these messy things on the island as soon as possible and go back earlier."
Jun Xi also suppressed his smile, "I heard that the border situation is tense recently?"
"That's right." Song Qinghuan said helplessly, "There are not many available people in the court. When Xuanying is rescued, I want Ashu to go back first."
"Are you still here?"
Song Qinghuan nodded, "Since I promised the elders, no matter what, I have to wait until this farce is over before leaving. In this way, even if I want to take away the concubine mother, they can't say anything."
"That's right." Jun Xi nodded thoughtfully, and was about to speak, when suddenly hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
The two looked up.
There was a shadow at the door, it was Yuge, she seemed to be in a hurry, sweat dripped from her forehead.
"What's wrong?" Song Qinghuan was slightly startled.
"Your Highness, several big families gathered on the other side of Crescent Moon Island, and they said they wanted to ask some elders for an explanation, and some people came this way." Yuli said hastily.
"Come to the mansion? What do they want to do?" Song Qinghuan frowned, his tone slightly cold.
Yuli shook her head, "I don't know, but looking at that posture, it seems that I came here for Madam."
Song Qinghuan sneered and stood up, "In that case, follow me to have a look."
As soon as he brought Yunli to the gate of the mansion, he heard the noise.
Song Qinghuan's eyes were slightly cold, and she motioned for Yuli to open the door of the mansion.
The people who were discussing outside the door saw that the door of the mansion was opened, and they all turned their heads to look.
"Who are you looking for?" Song Qinghuan said coldly, his eyes swept away.
A slightly older man stepped out of the crowd and saluted Song Qinghuan, "Emperor Ji Wuyang, we are here to find the saint."
"My concubine is not feeling well, and I don't see any guests. Who are you?" Song Qinghuan took a good look at him, with a flat tone.
The man was a little displeased, but he returned, "I'm Jiang Xiu, the Patriarch of the Jiang Family."
"So it's Patriarch Jiang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Song Qinghuan said so, his expression still pale, and he stood at the door, with no intention of giving way.
Jiang Xiu frowned, "We need to find the saint for something important, and I would like to ask Di Ji to make it easier for me."
Song Qinghuan raised her eyebrows, and stood pretty at the door, her eyes were cold, specious, "My concubine mother is no longer a saint, doesn't Elder Jiang know?"
Jiang Xiu frowned more tightly, and said loudly, "Emperor Ji's words are wrong. As long as a new saint is not elected for a day, the saint will still be the saint of my Fulan clan."
The people behind nodded in agreement.
Song Qinghuan took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead leisurely, and smiled lightly, revealing his white teeth, which were a little dazzling in the sun.
Her voice was a bit sweet and soft, with a polite expression, "Is that so? But unfortunately, Elder Jiang also knows that my concubine's spiritual power has been crippled, so she really can't leave the house."
After a pause, his eyes flickered slightly, "I don't know why Elder Jiang is looking for my mother and concubine?"
Jiang Xiu hesitated a bit, but seeing Song Qinghuan's posture, he clearly didn't intend to let him in.
He already had other thoughts about today's matter, and he didn't want to make the relationship with Song Qinghuan stiff this time. After thinking about it, he said, "I want to invite the saint to discuss some family matters."
"Is it about Xuelian?"
Jiang Xiu was startled, hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Song Qing smiled calmly, "I'll tell you the truth, Elder Jiang, it's not that I don't want you to see Concubine Mother. It's actually because Concubine Mother's body is weak after her spiritual power was deactivated. I gave her an injection and she won't wake up until three days later."
Jiang Xiu frowned, and there were whispers behind him.
"I'm sorry to trouble Elder Jiang, please go back, Elder Jiang." After saying this, Song Qinghuan turned around without haste, and told Yuli to close the door.
"Wait!" Just as Yuli put her hand on the door, Jiang Xiu shouted behind her.
Song Qinghuan's pupils were narrow, and he turned around calmly, "What else is Elder Jiang doing?"
Jiang Xiu thought for a moment, then stared at her and said, "Since it is inconvenient for the saintess to meet guests, please ask Di Ji to come with us."
Although he was a bit reluctant to get this job, if he returned empty-handed, his face would be ugly, so it would be better to invite Song Qinghuan, it would be considered a job.
Song Qinghuan shrugged, seemingly puzzled, "I thought Elder Jiang was going to invite my mother and concubine to discuss matters in the clan." When she mentioned the word "clan", she deliberately emphasized it.
Elder Jiang made up his mind, regardless of what she said, "Since Di Ji is the next saint woman candidate, you can hear about it. After the saint woman wakes up, it will be convenient for Di Ji to explain the situation to the saint woman."
He hooked the corners of his lips with a fake smile, "What does Di Ji think?"
(End of this chapter)
Yuli took a tight breath.
This place is located in the depths of the Nether Forest. The environment is harsh and it is extremely difficult to survive. How can there be someone in this cave?
She looked at Shen Chuhan puzzled.
Shen Chuhan thought for a moment, then lowered his voice, "Go in and have a look?"
Yuli nodded.
In order not to startle the snake, Shen Chuhan extinguished the torch and walked lightly into the cave.
The passage is not long, after a few steps, it suddenly becomes clear, a ten-foot-square cave appears in front of you, with a small opening on the top of the cave, and the bright moonlight pours in from the top of the cave.
However, Shen Chuhan's face suddenly changed after seeing what was under the moon.
"Then... what is that?" Yuli took two steps forward, stretched out her hand, and her voice was trembling.
Although Yuli is a woman, she has a tough heart. She has seen many storms and waves over the years, and it is rare for her to show her emotions like this.At this moment, his pupils shrank sharply, his eyes widened and he looked ahead, his face was as pale as paper.
I saw a huge pottery urn on the ground not far away.The pottery urn seems to have been there for a long time, and the outer shell has fallen off, and moss has grown.
In the urn there was a dark object, vaguely seen as a human figure, only above the head was exposed, and the long hair hung down to cover the face.
Xu Shi heard the movement, and when the thing moved, he looked up.Under the bright moonlight, the face covered by the long hair was exposed, a pair of eyes looked straight at him, the pupils were as gray as dead, the face was bloody, and the abscesses were flowing, which was very disgusting.
He really is a living person!
And by the looks of it, she's still a girl.The breathing sound I heard just now probably came from her.
Shen Chuhan frowned, and looked at the person in the urn vigilantly.
Seeing them, the ashen eyes of the person in the urn lit up, and he opened his mouth, screaming "Zhi Zhi Ya Ya" with a very excited expression.
Yuli moved her feet and stepped forward.
Shen Chuhan stretched out his hand to stop her, "Concubine Mother, be careful of fraud."
Yan Li frowned, "I think she's been imprisoned in the urn, she can't move at all except her head, she should be fine, I'll go over and see what's going on."
Shen Chuhan looked it over carefully, then withdrew his hand, "I'll be with you." Then, he took the lead and walked to the pottery urn.
As they got closer, the abscess on the face of the person in the urn became clearer. The yellow pus was mixed with blood, and there was a foul smell, which rushed straight to the nose, which was really disgusting.
Xu Shi saw the undisguised disgust in Shen Chuhan's eyes, the person in the urn lowered his head, covered his face with his hair again, and his voice of "babbling, babbling" also dropped.
Shen Chuhan held his breath and looked carefully.
Inside the pottery urn was a puddle of dark water, with some grass, leaves and tree bark faintly floating in the water.The floating branch on the top layer is painted with mysterious patterns, and upon closer inspection, it turns out to be the torso of a poisonous snake!
Shen Chuhan frowned, and Yuli also noticed some clues.
"In this urn, there seem to be some highly poisonous medicinal materials." Yuli frowned and said.
"The medicine man." Shen Chu coldly spit out two words.
"What?" Yuli looked at him in shock.
"Some people regard this person as a medicine man and use her to test various poisons."
Yuli covered her lips with her hands, her clear eyes were full of shock, "How could someone do such a thing in this kind of place...?"
She looked at the person in the urn, "Did someone arrest you here to be a medicine man? If yes, nod, if not, shake your head."
The man in the urn nodded slowly.
Yuli was startled, and asked again, "What about the other person? Are they still here?"
The person in the urn shook his head first, then nodded again.
Yuli is puzzled.
Shen Chu coldly said, "I was there before, but not now?"
The person in the urn gave two hoarse "ahhh" and nodded.
Shen Chuhan looked around, "It seems that there are still people living in this place, but the owner doesn't know where he is for the time being."
Yan Li said "hmm", suddenly thought of something, looked at the medicine man and asked, "Is there a giant python in this cave?"
The person in the urn opened his pupils suddenly, and nodded hesitantly.
Yanli looked at Shen Chuhan, "The giant python probably escaped to the passage on the left. I haven't seen the shadow of the silver snake root along the way. Do you want to follow it?"
"it is good."
"Then... what about this man?" Yuli glanced at the unrecognizable man in the urn, and spoke hesitantly.
Hearing them talking about themselves, the person in the urn suddenly became excited, "Yi Yi Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya!" A teardrop fell from the corner of his eye as he said something.
Shen Chuhan has always been ruthless, if it was different from usual, he would not talk to him, but seeing Yuli's unbearable look, his eyelashes drooped, "But it's up to the mother and concubine to decide."
Yan Li sighed, "No matter who brought her here, she must have suffered a lot these years. Since we came here, it can be regarded as her good luck. If we can successfully get the silver snake root, we... Get her out."
Rescue or not, it doesn't have much influence on Shen Chuhan, since Yuli said so, he agreed.
Hearing this, the man in the urn finally revealed a little light in his ashen eyes, and made a sound of "嘿嘿嘻嘎嘿", as if to thank him.
Yuli looked at her, and said softly, "We need to deal with the giant python first, and we will come back to you after we succeed, and then I will rescue you. You can wait in peace, okay?"
With tears in their eyes, the man in the urn nodded, watching their figures disappear into the cave, their long eyelashes drooping, tears streaming down their cheeks.
The two left the cave and arrived at the fork in the road just now.
Shen Chuhan glanced at the pitch-black corridor, and said in a deep voice, "Mother, you know, she is exhausted. The venom in the urn is highly poisonous, but it is also a life-sustaining thing. If we rescue her, maybe it won't be long. , she will die."
Yuli sighed, "I know. I just...can't bear to see her suffer here again." Looking up at Shen Chuhan, "Look at her, she's about the same age as Ah Wan."
When Shen Chuhan saw this, he didn't say anything more. He had no intention of caring about the lives of others, and he just reminded him that it was only for Yuli's sake.
He relighted the torch and entered the passage on the left.
The further you go in, the heavier the pungent dampness in the cave, it seems that you are not far from the giant python's lair.
Shen Chuhan frowned in disgust, held his breath, and stepped faster.
After walking for a while, a big cave appeared again, but it was much bigger than the cave on the right.As on the right side, there is an opening on the roof of the cave, and moonlight pours in.
There is a deep pool under the moonlight, the water in the pool is sparkling, a cursory glance shows that there are a lot of herbs growing around the deep pool, but there is no trace of the giant python.
Yan Li's eyes lit up, she pointed at a place and lowered her voice, "That's the silver snake root."
Looking in the direction she pointed, I saw a few plants with red fruits growing beside the rocky pile opposite the cold pool.
"The red fruit is the snake fruit, and the underground roots of the snake fruit are the silver snake roots." Yuli explained.
Shen Chuhan nodded, looked around, saw that there was no sign of the giant python, he couldn't help but frowned, his suspicious eyes fell on the deep pool.
However, since the silver snake root is close at hand, he will not just wait like this.Glancing at Yuli, she signaled her to step back a little, "Concubine Mu, I'll go over and have a look."
"Be careful." Yuli also sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and warned in a deep voice.
"Okay." Shen Chuhan nodded, and jumped forward with his lightness kung fu.
As soon as he walked to the sky above the cold pool, he suddenly saw water splashing in the pool, and a thick snake tail broke through the water, swept it in the air, and hit Shen Chuhan directly.
Shen Chuhan had been on guard for a long time, his eyes turned cold, he turned over and landed on the opposite bank.
The giant python swung its tail out of the pool, with scarlet snake letters and scarlet eyes staring straight at Shen Chuhan, the cold gaze seemed to understand human nature.
Shen Chu curled his lips coldly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and the sword energy brought up the pool of water and struck towards the eyes of the giant python.This giant python is almost mature, its whole body has thick scales, except for the [-]-inch area, the tail and eyes are the weakest.
Sure enough, the water droplets full of internal energy turned into sharp blades, hitting the giant python's eyes, piercing its skin and flesh, making it painful.
Shen Chuhan danced like a water sword, transformed into more sword energy, and attacked the giant python's eyes.
When the giant python was entangled by the sword energy, he clicked on the stone, jumped up, jumped onto the back of the giant python, raised his sword and slashed towards the seven-inch point.
The giant python was very sensitive, instantly aware of the danger, swung its head, and swung its tail towards its back.
Shen Chuhan jumped away and slashed at the tail of the giant python.
If the water sword is very sharp, Shen Chuhan used a lot of internal strength, and the angle is just right, this sword cut off the tail of the giant python!
The tail was bounced to the shore, and blood flowed from the fracture, instantly staining most of the pool of water red.
The giant python bounced in pain, jumped out of the water, turned its head and opened its bloody mouth, and chased after Shen Chuhan, its eyes were red like blood, which made people inexplicably surprised.
Shen Chuhan's expression remained unchanged, and he dodged lightly.
Although this cave is big, it is no bigger than the outside. The giant python is huge, so it is naturally inconvenient to move. As a result, Shen Chuhan's lightness and ingenuity have the upper hand.
After several back and forth chases like this, Shen Chuhan was unscathed, but the giant python was so tired that it stopped attacking and crawled in the pool, as if waiting for an opportunity to move.
Shen Chuhan did not take it lightly, standing on a towering stone, staring at the giant python with eagle-like eyes, blood dripping from the tip of the sword.
One person and one snake, no one moved first, only the cold moonlight and only a few wind sounds.
Suddenly, the giant python jumped up from the pool, opened its bloody mouth, and attacked Shen Chuhan.
Shen Chuhan jumped away lightly.
Unexpectedly, the giant python turned around abruptly, turned its head and bit Yuli who was standing on the shore.
Yan Li frowned, although she was a little flustered, she quickly calmed down, a faint blue light flickered between her fingertips, and the pool of water in front of her rose "crashing" and merged into a huge water curtain.
The giant python didn't check it, but bumped its head on it, got dizzy and fell into the pool with a "bang".
Shen Chuhan's heart fell, seeing that the timing was just right, he jumped up and landed on the back of the giant python, and the sharp sword he held high fell straight down, stabbing at the python's seven inches.
The giant python was startled, and kept swinging its body, trying to throw Shen Chuhan off.
Shen Chuhan's eyes became colder, he clenched the hilt of the sword tightly, mobilized his inner strength, and quickly stepped back.
Starting from the seven-inch heart on the python's back, a huge gash was cut out immediately, the flesh and blood turned outward, and the entire back was cut open.The giant python struggled and swung a few times, but finally lost its vitality, its high head fell heavily, and fell into the cold pool, splashing huge water.
Seeing that he could only breathe in but not out, Shen Chuhan jumped off the giant python and landed on the shore, "Mother Concubine, are you alright?"
Yuli wiped her face with her hand, then shook her head, "I'm fine. Is the python dead?"
"It's not completely dead yet, I want to take its guts, it's best if it still has a bit of breath."
"Okay, I'm going to pick silver snake roots." Yu Li said, and Yu Ling went to the other side, carefully pulled out a few intact snake fruits on the bank, and put them in his backpack.
Looking back, Shen Chuhan was already disemboweling the giant python, and within a short while, he took out a bright yellow bead from its belly.
The two met on the shore.
Looking at the thing in Shen Chuhan's hands, Yuli sighed slightly, with such a huge inner gut, it can be seen that this giant python has lived here for nearly a hundred years, and it has absorbed how much spiritual energy from heaven and earth to get this bead.
People who practice martial arts take it, and their internal strength can be refined. Fulan people take it, and their spiritual power can greatly improve. Even ordinary people can have the effect of prolonging life.
It is indeed a rare treasure.
Shen Chuhan put away the guts, saw that the giant python had lost its breath, looked back at Yuli, "Mother Concubine, let's go."
Yuli nodded, and the two turned back along the way they came.
At the fork in the road, Yuli was still thinking about the medicine man in the urn, so she went into the cave along the corridor on the right.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the person in the urn hurriedly raised his head, seeing that Shen Chuhan and Yuli had left and returned, his eyes suddenly lit up, such clear eyes made her ugly face even more pleasing to the eye.
Yuli walked up to her side, seeing her inhuman appearance, she barely heard a sigh, "Girl, I don't know who you are, and I don't know why you are here. We can save you." Go out, but you have to know that once you leave these potions, you are very likely to die soon. So, are you willing?"
The person in the urn nodded like pounding garlic.
Yuli's heart softened, she looked at Shen Chuhan, "In that case, let's rescue him."
Shen Chuhan agreed.
Even so, how to take it out is also a problem.
Yan Li looked at it, although the girl had all her hands and feet, but she was weak and drooping, as if her tendons and tendons had been severed, it was definitely impossible for her to walk by herself.
But if you ask them to recite——
I probably couldn't carry it on my back, and as for Shen Chuhan, Yuli couldn't open his mouth even after taking a look at him with a gloomy face.
Shen Chuhan, she knew something about Shen Chuhan in her previous life, she has a very indifferent temper, and she has heard Song Qinghuan say that she has a cleanliness habit.
If she opened her mouth, for Ah Wan's sake, he might not refuse, but this matter had nothing to do with him, it was just a moment of kindness on her part, and for Ah Wan's sake, she didn't want to embarrass him.
But in this way, it seems to be in a dead end.
But the man in the urn seemed extremely intelligent, as if he could see Yuli's embarrassment, he screamed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Yanli followed her gaze, showing a strange look.
I saw that there were several rollers installed under the pottery urn, but because it was covered with moss, I didn't see it for a while.It must be that the cave owner wants to use the girl in the urn to make medicine, but also needs to push her around, so this gave them a way to take the girl out.
Seeing this, Shen Chuhan raised his eyebrows, "Since that's the case, let's set off as soon as possible, lest the owner of the cave come back, and there will be another fierce battle. Can the concubine still hold on?"
Yuli nodded, "I'm fine, let's go." As she spoke, she wanted to push the pottery urn.
"I'll do it." Shen Chuhan said, and with a flick of his hand, the pottery urn automatically rolled towards the entrance of the cave.
After going out of the corridor and reaching the fork, Shen Chuhan paused, "Mother Concubine, I'll go in and have a look." All I could see was the entrance of the hole.
"Okay." Yuli nodded, waiting at the entrance of the cave, "Be careful."
Shen Chuhan didn't stay in the cave for long, and soon came out, the burden on his back seemed to be a lot heavier.
"How?" Yuli asked, using spiritual power to move the pottery urn, and walked out of the cave.
"Sure enough, there are people living here. The cave has been packed into a room. There are tables, chairs, beds, and a lot of unmade pills. They look quite precious, so I wiped them all out." He took a picture. Taking pictures of the burden behind him, there was a rare ray of light in his eyes.
"I don't think the owner of this cave is a kind person. It's not just the medicine man in the urn. I think the giant python in the cave was also raised by him. It's just that there is a thin layer of dust on the table, and it seems that some time has passed. No one lives anymore."
Yuli frowned upon hearing this.
The Nether Forest has always been a forbidden place for the clan, who would actually live here for a long time?
While talking, several people left the cave. It was already dawn, the morning sun fell through the gaps in the branches and leaves, and the hideous forest at night appeared somewhat peaceful. No wonder the owner of the cave chose this place to settle down.
It's just that Shen Chuhan knows that the so-called peace is just an illusion. Even if he has successfully obtained the seven herbs, it is not easy to get out of this dark forest, especially if he still has a burden.
She withdrew her scrutinizing gaze and looked at Yuli, "Mother Concubine, let's go." As he said that, with a wave of his hand, the pottery urn began to move forward.
*
Yitongfang, Wanfu.
In Shen Chuhan's absence these few days, Song Qinghuan always slept restlessly, woke up very early in the morning, but became lethargic after lunch, and often slept until dusk.
She opened her eyes, staring at the silk gauze curtain above her head in a daze.
Shen Chuhan and his concubine mother have been away for several days, and they don't know what the situation is now.
Just thinking about it, I suddenly felt a movement in my stomach.
Surprise flashed in her eyes, she put her hands on her stomach, and said softly, "Does the baby miss daddy and grandmother too? Don't worry, daddy and grandmother will be back soon."
As if in response to her words, the baby in her stomach kicked her again.
With a slight smile on Song Qinghuan's cheeks, she simply continued to lie down, chatting casually with the baby in her womb.
After lying down for a while, Dongfang showed a fishy belly, and the sun was gradually rising. She just got up and called Shen Xing to come in and take care of her grooming.
Junxi came over at breakfast.
Afraid that she would be worried, Jun Xi has been by her side for the past few days.
After having breakfast with Jun Xi, and asked someone to remove the dishes, Song Qinghuan looked at Shen Xing, "How is Xuan Ying?"
"Still unconscious, but fortunately breathing steadily."
"What about Liuyue?"
"I'm so worried, it's hard to eat." Shen Xing said honestly.
Song Qinghuan sighed.She knew that although Liuyue seemed to have a joking personality, she was actually very affectionate, but since she had a crush on Xuanying, she would only give up her heart.
She originally thought that things like feelings would go with the flow, and it was inconvenient for her to intervene.But she never thought that Xuanying was an inexperienced person, and Liuyue was thin-skinned, and after coming and going, this matter was put on hold again, and it seemed that she had to push it.
When Xuanying woke up this time and they returned to Lindu, she decided to organize their wedding.
When I think about it this way, I can't help but lose my mind.
"What is Huan'er thinking?"
Song Qing laughed happily, "I'm thinking about Liu Yue and Xuan Ying."
Jun Xi pursed his lips and smiled, "Since the two of them agree with each other, I think you can make the decision for them."
"That's what I thought too. I'll take care of this matter when I return to Lindu."
Speaking of Lindu, Jun Xi sighed, "I don't know what happened to Anian and Youyou."
"I'm sorry for letting my sister-in-law stay with us on the island for so long."
Jun Xi cast a glance at her, "What nonsense are you talking about? Yuheng Island is the one I want to follow, and I haven't been of much help these days. If you want to say sorry, it should be me."
Song Qing smiled happily, "I didn't expect to be out for so long, don't you worry about me as a mother after you go back."
"How come?" Jun Xi replied with a smile, "Youyou is very smart, no one will forget you as a beautiful mother."
Song Qinghuan let out a long breath, "I really want to end these messy things on the island as soon as possible and go back earlier."
Jun Xi also suppressed his smile, "I heard that the border situation is tense recently?"
"That's right." Song Qinghuan said helplessly, "There are not many available people in the court. When Xuanying is rescued, I want Ashu to go back first."
"Are you still here?"
Song Qinghuan nodded, "Since I promised the elders, no matter what, I have to wait until this farce is over before leaving. In this way, even if I want to take away the concubine mother, they can't say anything."
"That's right." Jun Xi nodded thoughtfully, and was about to speak, when suddenly hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
The two looked up.
There was a shadow at the door, it was Yuge, she seemed to be in a hurry, sweat dripped from her forehead.
"What's wrong?" Song Qinghuan was slightly startled.
"Your Highness, several big families gathered on the other side of Crescent Moon Island, and they said they wanted to ask some elders for an explanation, and some people came this way." Yuli said hastily.
"Come to the mansion? What do they want to do?" Song Qinghuan frowned, his tone slightly cold.
Yuli shook her head, "I don't know, but looking at that posture, it seems that I came here for Madam."
Song Qinghuan sneered and stood up, "In that case, follow me to have a look."
As soon as he brought Yunli to the gate of the mansion, he heard the noise.
Song Qinghuan's eyes were slightly cold, and she motioned for Yuli to open the door of the mansion.
The people who were discussing outside the door saw that the door of the mansion was opened, and they all turned their heads to look.
"Who are you looking for?" Song Qinghuan said coldly, his eyes swept away.
A slightly older man stepped out of the crowd and saluted Song Qinghuan, "Emperor Ji Wuyang, we are here to find the saint."
"My concubine is not feeling well, and I don't see any guests. Who are you?" Song Qinghuan took a good look at him, with a flat tone.
The man was a little displeased, but he returned, "I'm Jiang Xiu, the Patriarch of the Jiang Family."
"So it's Patriarch Jiang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Song Qinghuan said so, his expression still pale, and he stood at the door, with no intention of giving way.
Jiang Xiu frowned, "We need to find the saint for something important, and I would like to ask Di Ji to make it easier for me."
Song Qinghuan raised her eyebrows, and stood pretty at the door, her eyes were cold, specious, "My concubine mother is no longer a saint, doesn't Elder Jiang know?"
Jiang Xiu frowned more tightly, and said loudly, "Emperor Ji's words are wrong. As long as a new saint is not elected for a day, the saint will still be the saint of my Fulan clan."
The people behind nodded in agreement.
Song Qinghuan took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead leisurely, and smiled lightly, revealing his white teeth, which were a little dazzling in the sun.
Her voice was a bit sweet and soft, with a polite expression, "Is that so? But unfortunately, Elder Jiang also knows that my concubine's spiritual power has been crippled, so she really can't leave the house."
After a pause, his eyes flickered slightly, "I don't know why Elder Jiang is looking for my mother and concubine?"
Jiang Xiu hesitated a bit, but seeing Song Qinghuan's posture, he clearly didn't intend to let him in.
He already had other thoughts about today's matter, and he didn't want to make the relationship with Song Qinghuan stiff this time. After thinking about it, he said, "I want to invite the saint to discuss some family matters."
"Is it about Xuelian?"
Jiang Xiu was startled, hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Song Qing smiled calmly, "I'll tell you the truth, Elder Jiang, it's not that I don't want you to see Concubine Mother. It's actually because Concubine Mother's body is weak after her spiritual power was deactivated. I gave her an injection and she won't wake up until three days later."
Jiang Xiu frowned, and there were whispers behind him.
"I'm sorry to trouble Elder Jiang, please go back, Elder Jiang." After saying this, Song Qinghuan turned around without haste, and told Yuli to close the door.
"Wait!" Just as Yuli put her hand on the door, Jiang Xiu shouted behind her.
Song Qinghuan's pupils were narrow, and he turned around calmly, "What else is Elder Jiang doing?"
Jiang Xiu thought for a moment, then stared at her and said, "Since it is inconvenient for the saintess to meet guests, please ask Di Ji to come with us."
Although he was a bit reluctant to get this job, if he returned empty-handed, his face would be ugly, so it would be better to invite Song Qinghuan, it would be considered a job.
Song Qinghuan shrugged, seemingly puzzled, "I thought Elder Jiang was going to invite my mother and concubine to discuss matters in the clan." When she mentioned the word "clan", she deliberately emphasized it.
Elder Jiang made up his mind, regardless of what she said, "Since Di Ji is the next saint woman candidate, you can hear about it. After the saint woman wakes up, it will be convenient for Di Ji to explain the situation to the saint woman."
He hooked the corners of his lips with a fake smile, "What does Di Ji think?"
