There was silence in Jiange Cave.
Ning Tao sat in front of the Meixiang Cauldron to refine elixirs like an old monk. This time he put two pills into the Meixiang Cauldron for refining. The black and white elixir fire burned, and soon a misty green elixir light emitted from the Meixiang Cauldron, rendering the stone chamber into a dream-like place. The mysterious elixir energy also lingers and flows in the stone chamber, and the fragrance is fragrant. This time Ning Tao was well prepared and did not get distracted. He even held his breath when the elixir energy was fragrant. He was not affected by the elixir energy and did not have that kind of "allergic" reaction.
After refining the two incomplete versions of the Ancestor-Seeking Pill, Ning Tao took the tweezers and picked up the two pills one by one, put them into two small porcelain bottles that had been prepared in advance, and then corked the bottles to prevent the pills from being released. The gas evaporates. This was also his first experience. He did not pick up the elixir with his hands.
Qing Zhui looked at the two porcelain bottles placed in Ning Tao's hands eagerly, "Brother Ning, give me one."
Ning Tao sat down on the ground, then simply lay down flat. He was really exhausted from refining two incomplete versions of the Ancestral Seeking Pill at once.
Qing Zhui followed and moved to Ning Tao's side. He didn't mind the dirt on the ground and knelt directly beside Ning Tao, reaching out to massage Ning Tao's arms.
Ning Tao hurriedly took away his hand, "No, no, I'll just take a rest."
Qing Zhui simply moved his hands to Ning Tao's legs, shifted his position to massage his legs, and said: "I am your demon slave, and I should serve you. Why are you so polite?"
With her press, Ning Tao's legs immediately stiffened, and the fabric of his pants also changed significantly.
However, Qing Zhui's hand moved towards the tiger mountain, knowing that there was a tiger in the mountain, and pressed it specifically on the sensitive place.
"Here you go, stop pressing it." Ning Tao pushed a small porcelain bottle over.
"Thank you, Brother Ning." Qing Zhui couldn't wait to remove the cork from the bottle.
Ning Tao pressed her hand, "You also saw how terrible it is to take that pill. Are you sure you want to take it?"
Qing Zhui said: "Yin Molan said that after taking the Xunzu Pill, the demon's power is purer, and it also has the effect of cleansing the marrow and cutting the menstruation. A little side effect is nothing, I'm not afraid. Moreover, he is a new demon, and I am a natural demon. I guess Xunzu Dan’s elixir power is more beneficial to me.”
Ning Tao said: "Okay, but you have to wait for a while."
"Why do you have to wait for a while?" Qing asked, she still wanted to eat.
Ning Tao said: "If nothing happens to Yin Molan, you can eat it."
Qing Zhui was stunned for a moment, then suddenly chuckled again, "I understand, Yin Molan was not killed by the medicine, which means that the pill is safe and can be taken, right?"
Ning Tao said: "Be careful, he is too impulsive, you can't be so impulsive."
"I guess nothing will happen to him. After taking that pill, his demonic aura is obviously stronger than before." Qing Zhui said.
"To be on the safe side, let's wait a little longer." Ning Tao said. He himself actually has a plan to use the broken version to find the ancestral elixir. That is to go to the Himalayas, where Zhu Hongyu was killed, take out the elixir and smell it, enter that mysterious state, and look for something hidden in time. secret. Not necessarily, he will be able to find clues and find the complete recipe!
"Okay then, I'll keep it and eat it after a while." Although Qing Zhui still wanted to eat the broken Ancestral Pill, she still chose to listen to Ning Tao.
Then, she stretched her hand towards Ning Tao's thigh.
Ning Tao turned over and got up from the ground, "Xuan Tianzi said there is a secret passage under the bed, I will go and take a look."
He didn't want to go see it at first, but if he didn't find something to do and let Qing Zhui give him a massage, he was worried that something would happen between him and Qing Zhui.
There is indeed a secret passage under the stone bed. When the stone slab covering the entrance is uncovered, a passage extending diagonally downwards is revealed. But it's not man-made, but a natural cave. The ground has just been trimmed and paved with stone bricks.
There was no light in the secret passage, so Ning Tao used a mobile phone flashlight to illuminate it. Almost half an hour later, he and Qing Zhui arrived at the end of the secret passage.
At the end of the secret passage is a stone wall, and there is a huge rock above the head. There is no door that can be opened, and there is no stone ladder going up. Ning Tao took a photo with his cell phone, and then found a fist-sized stone ball embedded in the stone wall. He tried pressing the stone ball into the stone wall, but it didn't move. He tried to turn the stone ball again, but when he twisted it, the stone ball turned and the boulder above his head slowly moved away.
The light of the stars and the moon suddenly poured down from the top of the head, and the dark blue sky was distant and mysterious.
Ning Tao kicked his feet hard on the ground. As his body rose, he stretched out his hands to grab the edge of the slowly moving boulder, then pushed up. In the next second, his feet were standing on the boulder. . Only then did he discover that the monument he could not shake was actually part of this huge stone.
Qing Zhui jumped up from the secret passage and stood up. Her body seemed to be weightless as she jumped out of the secret passage and landed on the ground.
The boulder slowly moved back again, and when it came to rest, there was no trace of movement.
The lights were on in Jiange Village at the foot of the mountain, and Lu Nan and Yang Lu's houses could be vaguely seen. Su Ya, Ge Ming and the children from the orphanage are in Jiange Village, but they don't know where they live specifically.
Ning Tao turned off the flashlight of his mobile phone, and then he noticed that it was only a little after eight o'clock. It was then that he discovered that he had three missed calls, all from Lin Qingyu. There was also a text message reminder from her.
Ning Tao opened the text message, which read: I couldn't defeat my father. He insisted on taking me to the Japanese Consulate to attend the Takeda family's party. I came up with an idea. You come to the Japanese consulate and give me a call. I will tell you that there is an emergency. Can you take me away
Ning Tao replied this text message: My mobile phone had no signal just now. I am coming to the Japanese Consulate now and will call you when I arrive.
Putting away his phone, Ning Tao couldn't help complaining, "What is Lin Donghai thinking in his mind? Does he really believe that the two Japanese and the British people really invested in him? He is so stupid."
Qing Zhui came over and said, "Do you want me to kill those two Japanese and that British guy?"
Ning Tao said: "Maybe in the future, but now is not the time. I am going to the consulate and it is not convenient for me to take you there. Do you want to stay here or go back to the clinic?"
Qing Zhui thought for a moment, "I have nothing to do anyway. I'm going to go for a walk and look for patients with medical fees."
Ning Tao said: "Okay, I'll go back to the clinic first and then go to the consulate. You should be careful."
The two said goodbye, and Qing Zhui disappeared into the mountains and forests, starting a new round of her hunting trip. She is a born hunter of evildoers, and the evildoers in this world are her prey, but she doesn’t know what kind of evildoers will fall into her hands this time.
Ning Tao used the blood lock left on the rock to return to the clinic, changed his clothes, did not bring a small medicine box, just put the unbreakable fan on and went out. After leaving Huayuan Street, he took a taxi and arrived at the door of the Japanese Consulate a quarter of an hour later.
At night, a flag with a red sun on a white background fluttered in the wind. Below it is a Japanese-style building, which is antique and incorporates some modern architectural elements. It stands among high-rise buildings, giving people a unique feeling that is unforgettable at a glance.
There were two Japanese guards standing at the gate of the consulate, but they were not armed.
Ning Tao didn't go over, so he stood on the sidewalk next to the gate and dialed Lin Qingyu's mobile phone number. The call was connected within a few seconds.
"Are you here?" Lin Qingyu's voice came from the phone, feeling slightly excited.
"I'll wait for you outside, come out." Ning Tao said.
Lin Qingyu's voice said, "Okay, I'll be out right away."
There was some ambient sound coming from the phone, including Lin Qingyu's voice saying that someone was looking for her, and the voices of others talking, but they could not be heard clearly. Then, the phone was hung up and no sound could be heard.
Ning Tao stood in the corner and waited. When he was bored, he took off the unbreakable fan from his waist, opened it, and gently fanned his face and collar. The wind blowing from the unbreakable fan is refreshing and refreshing, and the heat is gone. The mountain city is known as the city of fire, and it is as hot as a steamer every summer. But at this moment, Ning Tao only needs to slap his face, his body, and his legs, and he feels a sudden reaction. It feels very comfortable in early spring.
An aunt who was wearing a dance costume and preparing to dance in the square passed by Ning Tao, glanced at Ning Tao, and muttered, "What era is this? They are still playing with folding fans. Today's young people are really crazy about attracting attention." ”
Ning Tao said depressedly: "Auntie, I didn't offend you, did I?"
The aunt in dance clothes suddenly became unhappy, "Who do you call aunt? Who do you call aunt?"
Ning Tao smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, eldest sister, you are the eldest sister."
The aunt in dance clothes stopped arguing with Ning Tao and left muttering.
At this time, a woman came out of the embassy gate, looked around, and then said happily: "A Tao, I'm here."
Ning Tao moved his eyes and saw Lin Qingyu standing at the door. She wore a blue evening dress with a low-cut V-neck and an attractive career line. The side of the skirt was split, and a straight long leg was exposed to the air. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her lines were perfect. Tonight, she was mature, charming, and extremely alluring.
Ning Tao closed the unbreakable fan and walked over. He couldn't help but praise, "You are so beautiful tonight."
Lin Qingyu smiled at Ning Tao, "This is the first time I heard you compliment me on my beauty. Did you say that because you felt guilty for not answering my call?"
Ning Tao smiled, "Then what should I say about you? Do you call you ugly?"
"Disgusting!" Lin Qingyu gave Ning Tao a roll of her eyes, but then she smiled.
Ning Tao said: "Let's go, where are we going?"
"Let's go see a movie. It's been a long time since we've seen a movie." Lin Qingyu looked at Ning Tao expectantly, fearing that he would refuse.
"Okay, then let's go watch a movie." Ning Tao said. During the day in the office building of Blueprint Biotechnology Company, he did not respond to her confession, which made him feel that he had hurt her. He felt a little guilty in his heart and always wanted to compensate her for something, so he agreed without even thinking about it.
But at this moment a man's voice came, "Ms. Lin, is that gentleman your friend? Invite him to come to the party."
