Lin Luoran looked around the top of the mountain intently. The fragrance was overflowing under the action of the wind, making it impossible to find the source.
It was a scent that she had never smelled before. It was a bit like a flower scent, mixed with fruit scent, and there was a faint medicinal scent, which made people's sense of smell progress layer by layer, very attractive. Between going down the mountain and finding the source of the scent, Lin Luoran only took a few seconds to make a choice.
No matter how fast you go down the mountain, you should be able to make it if you delay for a while now, right
Thinking this way, she searched carefully around the mountain top.
The fragrance of the flowers seemed to be absent, and was blown intermittently by the wind, making it very difficult to locate. Lin Luoran searched all over the small area around the top of the mountain but could not find the source of the fragrance.
Lin Luoran made a mistake and gave up vision, closed his eyes to feel the source of the fragrance with his heart.
The sweet fragrance circled around her nose, and flew to a further place in a circle. Lin Luoran's nose fluttered, trying to catch the path of the fragrance.
Finally, the wind was a little bit weaker, and the sweet fragrance could still come, but it was not so chaotic. Lin Luoran closed her eyes and concentrated, and she was overjoyed, she found the direction of the fragrance!
Eyes opened suddenly, no more doubts from before, Lin Luoran walked towards the edge of the cliff with confidence.
Looking into the valley, I saw that on the cliff three meters below the top of the mountain, there is a three-foot-square bluestone platform, which does not touch the sky or the ground.
A dwarf plant with dark green veins, small and stretched branches and leaves is holding a little bit of soil on the bluestone platform, and its growth is very gratifying.
The flower is black, small and exquisite with four or five petals, and it looks a bit like an epiphyllum from a distance. At this time, they are still hugged together and will not open. There is only one flower bud growing among the dark green branches and leaves. Shaking his body lightly, a burst of strange fragrance radiated out.
Lin Luoran managed to find the source, but now she was in a bit of trouble.
For one thing, the bluestone does not touch the ground and is not grounded, and it hangs in the air on the cliff, so it will take a lot of effort to pick it up. Secondly, she didn't know this flower at all, and she hadn't even heard of it. With such a weird color, Lin Luoran really doubted whether it might be a highly poisonous thing.
But Lin Luoran can be sure of one thing, this strange black flower is definitely not a high-end product!
She could see the aura of the plants, but when she started searching, she didn't find anything special on the edge of the cliff. Now, Lin Luoran looked intently, and the flowers were still flowers, but she couldn't see any fog. This is strange. place.
Either this black flower is a dead thing at all, and has lost its vitality long ago, or... it actually knows how to restrain its breath. Whether it's a dead thing with such a strange fragrance, or a strange flower that knows how to restrain its aura, it's enough to make Lin Luoran tempted.
Does black necessarily represent poison
This is a big problem! Lin Luoran had an idea in his mind, and carefully observed the surrounding environment. It is said in novels that exotic flowers and plants are usually guarded by exotic animals. After reading for a long time, there was a bare bluestone hanging there, with a little bit of bird and animal hair. And feces are not visible.
Lin Luoran was still worried, so she picked up another big stone and put it on the bluestone platform. After waiting for a long time, the legendary "Flower Guardian Beast" jumped out. She just laughed, she actually took all the descriptions in the novel as real!
As for how to get down, she turned her eyes, leaned over and pulled up a mountain vine as thick as two fingers on the cliff. After pulling it, it was still strong, so she tied one end to a big tree on the edge of the cliff. He held on to the other end, looked at the position, and jumped down lightly.
When suspended in the air, the wind blew on his face, a little hot, but it was only an instant away, Lin Luoran was like a leaf floating down, and landed lightly and accurately on the bluestone.
Such a three-foot-square bluestone, it seems, is only a corner of the whole stone protruding from the mountain. Lin Luoran stood on it and the stone didn't even tremble, which shows that its larger area is embedded in the mountain.
Getting closer like this, the sweet fragrance of black exotic flowers suddenly penetrated to the end of the nose, making people's noses itchy and their minds light, as if the whole person was stepping on the cotton pile, which made people very uncomfortable.
Lin Luoran was immediately aware that this flower seemed to have the effect of deceiving people's hearts, so it must be resolved quickly. She was afraid of being poisonous, so she dared not pick it with her hands, so she tore off a section of mountain vine and threw it like a whip. The mountain vine brought a gust of wind, and when it hit the bluestone board, there was a faint sound of gold and stone.
Originally, the dark green plant grew by grasping the soil that was washed by the rain on the bluestone, and the root system was not deep. Lin Luoran rubbed the bluestone vigorously, but the soil was shaken loose after a few dozen strokes. As soon as it changed, it swept towards the root of the plant, and the tip of the mountain vine deftly made a circle, firmly encircling the root of the black flower, and with a flick of the wrist, the force passed along the mountain vine, completely separating the root system from the bluestone!
Lin Luoran exerted all her strength, and retracted the whip into her arms. The dark green plant flew towards Lin Luoran with soil. She didn't dare to pick it up rashly. With a thought, this strange plant with black branches and black flowers was captured by Lin Luoran. Then it was received in the space.
Lin Luoran breathed a sigh of relief. With his current skills, he is not considered a cultivator, but a martial arts master for sure. This is not a good place to look at exotic flowers. Lin Luoran thought of the sound of gold and stone when the mountain vines were whipped on the bluestone, and guessed that this stone might be a little weird, so he wanted to take it away together.
Lin Luoran stomped on the bluestone, but the bluestone remained motionless. It is estimated that the area sunk into the mountain is very large. At this time, there is no tool in hand, so it is very difficult to get it out.
Lin Luoran hesitated for a moment, worried that Father Lin would not find her at the meeting place, and decided to come and get the bluestone away again when he had a chance.
She grabbed the mountain vine, took a deep breath, kicked hard on the bluestone with her toes, jumped up lightly, and touched a little on the cliff, and she had turned over to the top of the mountain.
Lin Luoran delayed for a while, afraid that Papa Lin would be worried, so he would inevitably move much faster when going down the mountain. As the saying goes, it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down. She took care of Papa Lin and jumped and ran in the mountains with all her strength. When she was approaching the col, she stopped early and tidied her clothes and hair only to find that the clothes were hung by branches.
Maybe Lin's mother will talk about it again when she goes back, Lin Luoran thought, and greeted Lin's father who was waiting in the mountain depression:
"Have you been waiting for a long time? I found a few monkeys in the mountains just now, and they ran away after chasing them..." Lin Luoran made up a white lie. She couldn't tell Father Lin that your daughter went to pick flowers on the cliff, right? ? That doesn't worry Father Lin to death!
It was the dry season in autumn, and the forest fire was not just for fun. Father Lin carefully extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and took out the dry food he brought to settle lunch on the spot.
The rice ball made by Mama Lin herself contained the leftover beef and some vegetables from last night's meal. Papa Lin could eat it if it was so cold. Get up, pick up the branches to heat the rice balls.
Picnicking is very interesting, yes, but for some reason, Lin Luoran, ever since she picked so many exotic cliff flowers that resemble epiphyllum and exude sweet fragrance, she always feels a little uneasy, as if something dangerous is about to happen.
In the past, she would have sneered at such unfounded intuitions, but since she got the beads, her spiritual sense has improved, so she dare not underestimate these deep feelings.
It's better to leave early, Lin Luoran said that he wanted to experience life with Lin's father, and acted like a baby to prevent Lin's father from heating the rice balls. Lin's father had no choice but to distribute the cold rice balls to his daughter, and the two walked back while eating.
Along the way, Lin Luoran not only collected some rare medicinal materials by himself, but also helped Father Lin to collect many common medicinal materials. Not only did they fill the bamboo baskets on their backs, but he even used an empty bag that Father Lin brought. .
…
An hour after Lin Luoran and his daughter left the col, the grass where the father and daughter had been staying was rustling, and a thick red body loomed among the grass and shrubs.
Shrubs and grass covered most of its body, and where it was exposed, we could see the delicate patterns on the surface of the red body.
Swimming to the top of the mountain, the bushes dwindled sharply, and only then did this thing reveal its big triangular head—a red snake as thick as an ordinary person's thigh.
The more the big red snake walked towards the top of the mountain, the more restless it seemed, and it gradually picked up its speed.
After a while, the big snake moved to the cliff where Lin Luoran once stood. Its big head rests on the edge of the cliff and looks down—
There are some debris scattered on the big bluestone, and the strange flower that can make it advanced has long since disappeared!
The big red snake's eyes seemed to spew out flames, but there was no strange smell left in the air, making it nowhere to chase!
The big snake spit out its core, raised its snake tail fan on the rocks and big trees, and the debris of the cliff rocks flew around. A big tree big enough to be surrounded by one person was swept by it a few times, and it broke from the waist!
At the same time, Lin Luoran, who had already climbed over this mountain and was far away from here, felt nervous for no reason, and dragged Papa Lin forward even faster.
