Chapter 41 Jade Peach
"How are you?"
Cao Jin walked to Lu Kunlun.
"Skin injury."
Lu Kunlun shook his head: “I have medicine in my arms.”
Cao Jinxing reached out and took out a porcelain bottle. Seeing the words [Hunyuan Pill] written on it, he poured out a pill for Lu Kunlun to eat and said with a smile, "It seems that joining a sect has its benefits. You can get the elixir without working so hard. Your master really loves you."
[Hunyuan Pill] is the panacea of the Beggars' Gang. Because beggars "are good at eating poisonous snakes, and often swallow them with wine", their pills are also unique in detoxification.
If Lu Kunlun had been more careful and noticed something was wrong before entering the cave and swallowed a pill, he would not have been hit.
"Stop talking. I've lost face today."
Lu Kunlun smiled bitterly, but he was an open-minded person and would only keep the lesson in mind.
[Hunyuan Dan] can regenerate muscles and heal bones. With Cao Jinxing's help in digesting the medicinal power, the injuries on both sides of his shoulder blades healed quickly, the effect of [Hua Gong San] weakened, and he gradually returned to normal.
Lu Kunlun stood up, stretched his arms, and said to Cao Jinxing seriously, "I won't thank you for saving my life."
Cao Jinxing said: "I will repay you for your kindness when you save me later."
Lu Kunlun laughed and nodded: "Okay!"
Cao Jinxing turned and walked towards the peach forest: "These peach trees outside are just ordinary ones. The jade peaches should still be inside. Let's go in and take a look."
The two of them went deep into the peach forest, one in front and one behind.
After walking about fifty meters, I saw Lao Zhou and Wei Wuyan lying under a tree. At this time, the two of them had not only sealed the Du meridian, but also pressed acupoints.
Cao Jinxing raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Does what you just said still count?"
Wei Wuyan looked him up and down, and seeing that he was handsome and had extraordinary skills, he said, "In the past, I hated people like you the most! But now, you saved us, and I like you. I am a man of my word, and I will keep my word!"
Cao Jinxing said: "Don't forget, we are here to grab the Jade Peaches as well."
Wei Wuyan said, "No one is immune to the treasures of nature, but you at least obtained them in a proper way! The guest named Lu over there has followed Lao Zhou before, right? If these people knew about this, I'm afraid they would torture him severely."
Lu Kunlun already knew that Lao Zhou was the key to finding Wei Wuyan. He could have summoned the gang's top fighters to capture and rob Wei Wuyan. However, the ghost market rules could not stop the best gang in the world!
But he chose to follow the clues, never bullying others, and never thought of killing anyone. This is the essential difference.
Lu Kunlun said: "Don't think I'm kind, but I really don't want to kill you."
He took two steps forward and said, "I hope you two can keep your word. Killing is not our goal, and we are not interested in it either."
He glanced at Cao Jinxing.
Cao Jinxing nodded.
Lu Kunlun used several fingers to untie the acupuncture points of the two people.
By the way, the Du meridian was also relieved.
He looked at Lao Zhou.
Wei Wuyan's martial arts pose no threat, but Lao Zhou's poison skills are a bit troublesome.
Old Zhou said: "Don't look at me like that. I didn't find this place, and the jade peaches don't belong to me. You can do whatever you want."
"oh?"
Lu Kunlun asked curiously, "You have no interest in natural treasures?"
Old Zhou said: "Except for wine, I have no interest in anything I've eaten. Imperial banquets, home-cooked dishes, natural treasures, wild game, they are all appetizers to me." Otherwise, he would not have been able to have the patience to sell wine for more than 20 years, let alone leave it to Wei Wuyan.
"You look a lot like my master."
Lu Kunlun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "He just loves drinking. His taste for alcohol is different, and he has no interest in anything else."
"Come with me."
Wei Wuyan led the way in front.
The three followed him and walked deeper into the peach forest.
At this time, the moon is at its zenith.
A ray of moonlight shone through the crack in the cave ceiling, and was refracted and brightened by a dozen huge mirror stones, then spread over the hundreds of peach trees, making the entire cave as bright as day.
"The person who created this secret place is truly a genius."
Lu Kunlun exclaimed in admiration: "Look at this layout, this person must be very good at studying things. Just leaving a little gap can let these peach trees bathe in the sunlight and moonlight. Amazing!"
"more than."
Wei Wuyan said: "He also knows the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, Qimen Dunjia. Originally, these peach trees could be used to form an array, but they have been in disrepair for a long time and there are some problems. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult to enter. Here we are."
He stopped.
As they walked through the peach forest, they looked up and saw a large tree right in front of them. It was lush and covered with peach blossoms, and was extremely beautiful.
"Where's Tao?"
Lu Kunlun was dumbfounded. Looking around, he saw only flowers but no peaches. What kind of Jade Peaches were these?
Cao Jinxing was also stunned. He knew that this thing could not be rampant, but he did not expect that there would be so few of them. Could it be like the ornamental trees in later generations, which only bloom but do not bear fruit?
"hehe."
Wei Wuyan smiled, used his lightness skills to fly to the tree, picked the fruits three times in succession, got three fruits, and after landing, he spread his hands and handed them to the two people.
"There are only five in total. Lao Zhou and I ate one each. You can share the remaining three. What? You still want to eat as much as you want?"
He smiled and said, "In the past, Mr. Wu Liu only brought out three peaches. Although the Jade Peaches are the degeneration of the peaches, the spiritual energy required is greatly reduced, but this place is not a famous mountain or a big river, how can it be possible to produce a tree full of peaches? You are really greedy."
"makes sense."
Lu Kunlun smiled and glanced at the peaches. He saw that two of them were as big as fists, and the remaining one was a semi-finished product, only as big as an egg. He reached out and took a big one, and said to Cao Jinxing, "You can take the rest. I see your cat is drooling with greed."
Cao Jinxing lowered his head and discovered that Fourteen had poked his head out of his waist bag at some point, staring at Tao with his two round eyes and licking his lips continuously.
Cao Jinxing smiled and didn't act pretentiously.
"Thank you very much."
Cao Jinxing got the remaining two, and Fourteen's eyes followed Tao.
Cao Jinxing handed the smaller one to it and said, "Eat it when we get back. This place is not safe."
The fifth-grade natural treasures contain enormous energy, and the absorption will cause a lot of noise. This is not the place to practice.
Xuanyuan Shisi was very smart and nodded. Even though his eyes turned green with greed, he just put the peach into his waist bag and resisted the urge to eat it without opening his mouth.
"We have the stuff, let's go."
"Um."
Cao Jinxing didn't want to stay any longer.
The same goes for Lu Kunlun.
However, Wei Wuyan and Lao Zhou wanted to stay a little longer.
Wei Wuyan looked at the peach blossoms on the tree and said with emotion: "This place has been exposed. I'm afraid we won't come here again in the future... It would be a pity not to pick the peach blossoms on the tree. We plan to pick more to make wine."
"Then we'll be leaving first. Take care, both of you."
Cao Jinxing and Lu Kunlun returned the same way, preparing to find a place to absorb the jade peaches.
Just out of the peach forest.
Cao Jinxing suddenly stopped.
Lu Kunlun turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cao Jinxing raised his chin.
Lu Kunlun followed his gaze and frowned - the bodies of Han Rong and Wu Feng were still there, and the three disciples who used the "Asking Water Sword" at the entrance of the cave were also there, but... Su Miaoyun's body was gone.
Only a pool of blood was left on the spot.
Cao Jinxing said: "My sword 100% cut her heart meridian, but she was able to escape...Mingzong's methods are incredible."
Lu Kunlun: "Then let's chase?"
"Let's see if we can meet."
Cao Jinxing had no interest in hunting her down: "For now, I'd better absorb the Jade Peaches to enhance my power. Even if she's still alive, she can be killed with one sword."
"Um."
Lu Kunlun nodded. He didn't take Su Miaoyun seriously in the first place. If he hadn't been careless and got caught, the process would have been much easier.
The two rushed out of the secret passage and quickly left the black mud pond...
