What happened to the anti-superstition campaign? The live studio is full of police officers
Chapter 140 The Crisis Hidden Under the Fallen Leaves
After Xiao Jing and Bai Ningyu changed their clothes, they met up with everyone.
The two of them sat on a fallen tree trunk and didn't feel anything. However, people like Li Shang who were sitting on the ground felt like their buttocks were being burned after sitting for a while.
Li Yanchen was the first to get impatient. He ran to Xiao Jing and said with a smile, "The ground looks like it's been burned. It's so hot. Sister Jing, can you make some space for me?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jing moved towards Bai Ningyu.
Pei Zhou said, "Yes, I've been in this prison for five days. Sometimes there's no light in the mountains all day, and sometimes it's foggy all day. Sometimes it rains, and sometimes it's freezing cold. Today it's getting hot again. This mountain doesn't follow the cycle of seasons at all. It's a place with its own unique personality."
Bai Ningyu leaned down and placed her palms on the ground, and then her pupils shrank slightly. The heat did not come from the surrounding environment, but from underground!
Could there be magma or underground hot springs underneath?
But Bai Ningyu quickly denied this idea, because if such a thing existed, it would be impossible for it to alternate between hot and cold as Pei Zhou described.
In other words, there must be something strange under the Prison Gate Mountain!
Li Shang gave everyone a Peiyuan Pill. After taking it, everyone's physical strength was instantly restored and the fatigue suddenly disappeared. This effect was a hundred times stronger than those Peiyuan Pills they had taken before.
The rich aroma of medicine made people feel much less tired as soon as they smelled it. Even Pei Zhou, who was an alchemist himself, shamelessly asked Li Shang for one.
In the live broadcast room, Director Ye pointed at the pill on the screen and said to an old man sitting in the seat, "Old Lu, what do you think of this pill? Last time I told you about it, you didn't believe me and didn't want to watch my live broadcast. Now that you've seen it with your own eyes, what else can you say?"
The old man whose name was called stroked his glasses and said stubbornly, "It's not bad. It's just a low-grade Pei Yuan Dan. You actually refined it into top-grade quality. You don't think it's a waste of time."
Although he said so, Mr. Lu's eyes never left the pill on the video screen.
"You just keep talking tough!" Director Ye laughed softly.
Pei Zhou placed the pill in his palm and saw the three lines on the pill. His face was slightly surprised and he said enviously, "As expected of the Li family in Kyoto, even the Pei Yuan Dan they bring out is top-grade stuff. But how come your alchemist has improved so quickly after only not seeing him for a year? This Pei Yuan Dan is truly amazing. I must go ask for advice someday."
Li Shang laughed heartily upon hearing this and said to Pei Zhou, "This Pei Yuan Pill was not made by our alchemist."
"Oh? Then where did Brother Li get this from?" Pei Zhou became curious after hearing this.
"It's so far away yet so close at hand. This Peiyuan Pill was made by Miss Bai. She is our partner on this trip and also my friend." Li Shang began to introduce her to Pei Zhou.
Pei Zhou shifted his gaze to Bai Ningyu and was suddenly surprised. He didn't expect that such a good elixir was made by a young girl. He thought that an alchemist with such skills would be a middle-aged man, even if he didn't have a head full of white hair.
"Miss Bai, forgive me for being so presumptuous, but was this Peiyuan Pill really made by you?" Pei Zhou still couldn't believe it in his heart, and he had to ask in person before he would give up.
Bai Ningyu nodded and didn't do what he said.
Upon hearing this, Pei Zhou immediately became excited: "Miss Bai, I wonder if you are willing to join our Saint Medical Hall? If my master saw that you have such talent, he would definitely..."
Li Yanchen couldn't stand it anymore. Everyone in the Holy Medical Hall had this bad habit. When they saw someone with talent, they wanted to pull them in. If Miss Bai really joined the Holy Medical Hall, it would be troublesome to buy her medicine.
So, Li Yanchen, with a little thought in mind, said, "Pei Zhou, Miss Bai is from a prominent family that has been hidden from the world. She's just out here to gain experience. How can she not have a master? How can she become Hua Shengshou's disciple again?"
Pei Zhou then realized that he had lost his composure and quickly apologized to Bai Ningyu, "I'm sorry, Miss Bai, I was too excited at the time."
Pei Zhou stood up, pushed Li Shang aside, and moved to Bai Ningyu's side. He smiled with a flattering expression and said, "Miss Bai, I want to ask you a question. Although I haven't taken this pill yet, just by the aroma, I can tell that the effect is definitely good. Do you have any special method for refining it?"
Before Bai Ningyu could speak, Li Shang saw the veins on his forehead bulge. He kicked Pei Zhou away from his original position and said unhappily, "This is a secret of my sect. How could I possibly tell you? Are you trying to change your master?"
Pei Zhou, who was originally a little angry, touched his nose in dissatisfaction after hearing Li Shang's words. He laughed awkwardly twice and realized that the question he asked was a little inappropriate.
He was afraid that if he continued talking, Bai Ningyu would be unhappy, and then he would really have no chance to ask Bai Ningyu for advice.
So Pei Zhou stopped talking and sat quietly in the corner, continuing to study the Peiyuan Pill in his hand.
Everyone rested for a few hours, and only after their physical and mental strength had recovered to their best condition did they get up and follow Pei Zhou, continuing to move towards the mountains.
According to memory, Pei Zhou also led everyone to collect some other herbs along the way.
Arriving at a densely wooded jungle, Pei Zhou began to lose his way. He walked back and forth for a long time before finally finding a nine-layer purple ice flower the size of a plate under a huge fallen leaf next to a tree.
This nine-layer purple ice flower is crystal clear, like crystal, and you can even see the purple spiritual energy flowing inside.
"Great, we found it!" Li Yanchen looked at the nine-layer purple ice flower with great surprise, and took out tools to start digging it out.
Pei Zhou watched him fussing, fearing that Li Yanchen might accidentally destroy this extremely rare spiritual plant. He immediately snatched the tools from his hands and said disdainfully, "Leave this kind of professional work to me. You, an amateur, can just rest on the side."
Li Yanchen was not angry. After all, he was indeed a layman in the field of medicinal herbs. With professionals around, he was happy to have some free time.
Pei Zhou took the tools, lay on the ground, and carefully fiddled with the nine-layer purple ice flower. Everyone stared at him intently.
However, at this moment, everyone suddenly heard the faint sound of fighting and screams.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. As the sounds of fighting seemed to be getting closer, Li Yanchen urged, "Pei Zhou, can you please move faster?"
If someone else discovered this treasure, there would probably be a fierce battle for it.
"Stop yelling here and distracting me! If all else fails, just go and help fight and lead them in another direction. This thing can't be rushed. If it gets damaged, its value will be halved." Pei Zhou said, and his hands couldn't help but speed up a bit.
Li Shang asked the Great Elder and Xiao Jing to go and check it out.
However, at this moment, something hidden under thick fallen leaves underground not far from the crowd began to slowly approach them.
