Jiange Cave.
Qing Zhui curled up in Ning Tao's arms and shivered, his face pale. Not only because of the suppression of Tianwai Clinic, but also the shock of the "bloody insect tide".
In fact, she was not the only one, Yin Molan and Bai Jing were also in shock. Those bloody insects that looked like spiders but had dragonfly wings could bring fear from the depths of their souls to people.
Ning Tao was the least cultivated among the four, but he was the first to recover. He hugged Qing Zhui tightly, and while using special spiritual power to help her recover, he comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry."
Qing Zhui buried her cheek in his chest, like a frightened child.
"What are those bugs?" Bai Jing finally recovered and showed rare courtesy to Yin Molan, "Senior Yin, do you know?"
Yin Molan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I have never seen it before. It has been hundreds of years, and this is the first time I am so scared. However, the smell is that of dead corpses. I guess those bugs are mostly related to corpses, maybe they are Yin Yue people. Monsters bred from corpses.”
"Where did they fly out from?" Ning Tao asked, "Have you seen them?"
Yin Molan said: "I didn't see it, but the three attacks from Miss Bai and you probably caused the backlash of the magic circle, and the magic circle released those bugs. As for where they flew out, I think it was probably the eye of the formation."
Everything is speculation, and it is unknown whether it is right or wrong.
Ning Tao inexplicably thought of the archaeological team, as well as Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin. He wondered if they had found the abyss? Regarding what just happened, even if the archaeological team found the abyss and successfully passed through the Shennongjia Savage Tribe, the final result would actually be death!
Qing Zhui raised his head from Ning Tao's chest, his voice still a little weak, "Brother Ning, I'm much better."
Ning Tao then put her down, his movements were very gentle.
"If I don't break that magic circle, I won't go to that place again." Bai Jing said.
Yin Molan said: "The magic circle is so big, it is not easy to break it. Now I am more and more convinced that the stone building was split open by the sword immortal's sword energy, and it was attacked there. But I don't know where the magic circle outside the city is. The arrangement by the Sword Immortal is still the arrangement by the Yin Yue people.”
Ning Tao thought for a moment and said, "Maybe there is someone who knows something."
Yin Molan turned his gaze and asked, "Who?"
Ning Tao said: "Tang Zixian, on the surface it was the person named Tu Wenjin who funded the archaeological team, but Tu Wenjin was her subordinate and obeyed her command. She funded the archaeological team in the front and met me in the back. This shows that she She knows the existence of the Yin Yue people, and may also know some secrets of the Yin Yue people. Her target is the city of the Yin Yue people, and it may not necessarily be what is hidden under the magic circle. It seems that I have to go there. Shennongjia.”
"I'll go with you." Qing Zhui said.
Ning Tao shook his head, "No, I will go alone. That place is dangerous. I can come and go freely without any danger."
"But..." Qing Zhui wanted to follow Ning Tao, but she couldn't go against Ning Tao's wishes, so she hesitated to speak with a look of grievance on her face.
Bai Jing said: "Sister, just stay and help me set up the charity company first. This is also a big deal."
Qing Zhui was still a little reluctant, but finally nodded. Charitable companies are related to medical fees, and medical fees are related to Ning Tao's wealth and life. This is indeed a top priority.
Yin Molan said: "Brother Ning, you go to Shennongjia, and I will investigate Tang Tianfeng again. This time, I must give you a satisfactory result."
"Send me all the photos you took, and I will take a look at them together." Ning Tao said.
Yin Molan took out his mobile phone with a sad look on his face, "There is no signal here."
Bai Jing finally couldn't help it anymore, "Why are you so stupid? Can't you just use Bluetooth?"
Yin Molan shrugged, "No."
Just when Bai Jing and Qing Zhui were sending photos to Ning Tao, Yin Molan suddenly saw something, handed his phone to Ning Tao and walked towards the spiritual field. His eyes were fixed on a few moss plants planted in the spiritual field, and his eyes seemed to be shining a little.
"Brother Ning, what kind of spiritual material are these mosses?" Yin Molan asked.
When they arrived, he and Bai Jing were waiting for Ning Tao in the useless stone array on the mountainside without entering Jiange Cave. This was the first time he saw those moss spiritual materials.
Ning Tao said casually: "I don't know either. I found it under an abyss in Shennongjia."
This is not a concealment. If it is, it is a concealment with a reason.
Yin Molan's eyes moved to those moss spiritual materials, and he suddenly said excitedly: "Oh my God, night flowers! You even have this kind of spiritual material, you are a rich man!"
The few night flowers had withered, but this could not be hidden from Yin Molan's eyes.
"It was also collected in Shennongjia, but it's a pity that it didn't survive." Ning Tao said.
Yin Molan said: "What's so strange about this? The growth conditions of night flowers are extremely harsh. They have to be in a dark environment without sunlight for many years, and they must be full of spiritual energy. The soil temperature must also be around 30 degrees, 300 degrees Celsius. I was lucky enough to see it once a year ago, but I have never seen it again since then. It is particularly precious because of its extremely harsh growing conditions.”
Ning Tao simply handed over the phone to Bai Jing, and he came over, "Senior Yin, what else do you know about Ye Shenghua?"
Yin Molan said: "The Night Flower is also known as the Mingming Flower. Crush it into juice and drop it on the eyes of a blind person to restore sight. You still have time to pound the juice now. If it wilts completely, you will have to use it to make elixirs. . But mash them into juice and you can use them to make elixirs in the future.”
There is no record in the "Spiritual Materials Compendium" that night flowers actually have such effects. In fact, the title of the book "Outline Outline" already explains the problem. It introduces a lot of spiritual materials, but they are only some basic things, very general and not detailed.
Yin Molan's description made Ning Tao's heart beat. He pulled up the few night flowers that were planted in Ning Tao but had begun to wither. He cleaned the spiritual soil stuck to the roots and put them into the small medicine box. Put it on.
He thought about mashing these night flowers into juice when he returned to Tianwai Clinic and put it into a porcelain bottle for later use. What he values is not only the value of night flowers as an important spiritual material for refining high-grade elixirs, but also its medicinal value that can restore sight to blind people.
Yin Molan's eyes moved to the moss spiritual materials again, "I will go out this time to inquire and investigate what spiritual materials this is."
Ning Tao said: "Thank you to Senior Yin. If you use it to make elixirs in the future, there must be Senior Yin's elixir."
Yin Molan said with a smile: "Why are you so polite? I hope that it and Ye Shenghua are also among the recipes for looking for the Ancestral Pill. In this case, there is no need to look for it."
Ning Tao sighed in his heart. He had only collected two pieces of the recipe for Zudan so far. It was estimated that it was only one-fifth or one-sixth. It was not easy to collect the complete recipe. The woman in red is a clue, but she is in the illusory past time and space, unable to communicate, let alone touch. How to solve this dilemma
Bai Jing and Qing Zhui also came over. Bai Jing handed the phone to Ning Tao, "All the photos have been transferred to your phone."
Ning Tao put away his phone, "Then let's say goodbye here. I'll go back to the clinic to juice the night flowers, and then go to Shennongjia."
Qing Zhui looked at Ning Tao with gentle eyes, "Brother Ning, although there are convenient ways, you must be careful in everything."
Ning Tao's heart felt warm, and his voice was gentle, "You should also be careful." Then he said to Bai Jing and Yin Molan: "And you, you should also be careful in your actions, don't forget that Bai Sheng is still alive. ”
Bai Jing and Yin Molan nodded in unison.
Returning to Tianwai Clinic, Ning Tao crushed several night flowers into juice, then filled it in three small porcelain bottles. He placed one bottle in the small medicine cabinet and put the other two bottles on the shelf for later use. Then he rode the Tiandao battery car to an electronics mall in Guancheng, bought a laptop and a color printer, and then returned to his and Qing Zhui's rental house with the purchased items.
After working for a while, all the photos were printed. Ning Tao counted and found a total of forty-one photos. Excluding the duplicates, there were still thirty-six. Adding in the few photos he took when he first entered Yinyue City, he had forty-three in his hand. photos with different content. Forty-three photos represent forty-three stone eggs, but for that huge magic circle, this is just a small part.
The forty-three photos compiled by Ning Tao were spread on the bed, and then he looked at them. Runes entered his brain one by one through his eyes, and there were a bunch of undecipherable runes in his head. He tried to sort out a pattern, but gave up after a few attempts. He didn't know a single rune, how could he sort out the rules? In front of these runes, he was like a baby still looking at pictures and learning to read.
Ning Tao collected all the photos, took them back to Tianwai Clinic and put them in the desk drawer. It was a rented house after all, and it would be bad if the landlord came in and saw it.
After a little preparation, Ning Tao opened the door of convenience and walked in.
As soon as he left the convenience door, Ning Tao was already in a forest in Shennongjia. The cold moonlight fell overhead, and the distant mountain peaks were faintly visible. The night wind blew through the forest, making a whining sound. The names of insects came from the grass, seeming to tell the story of their parents' shortcomings.
Ning Tao walked out of the mountain forest and entered the valley where the archaeological team's camp was located.
The river is still rushing, but the archaeological team's camp is no longer in this valley. The helicopter also disappeared. I don’t know if it flew back or moved to another place. Some garbage was left on the river beach where the archaeological team once camped, as well as the smell of human bodies.
Ning Tao picked up a mineral water bottle that had fallen on the ground, unscrewed the cap and sniffed it, and in a blink of an eye he was sure that this was a bottle of water that Tang Zixian had drunk. Tang Zixian's scent extended all the way to the end of the valley, along with the scent of the members of the archaeological team.
Ning Tao looked up at the majestic mountains at the end of the valley, and his brows couldn't help but frown, "They didn't really go to that abyss, did they?"
In the cold wind of the clear moon, Ning Tao followed the scent.
