Chapter 1596 : Brother needs you to continue saving
When Pomegranate saw it, she opened her mouth.
Xuanyuan Jin glanced at her with a knife, and Pomegranate closed her mouth again.
Forget it, it's just a little hand-holding.
"Although I have lost a lot of weight, fortunately my hands are not thin." Xuanyuan Jin squeezed Tangbao's little hand and said, "It still looks like a little white pig's trotters."
Sugar Baby: "...Brother, you are still the poisonous tongue brother who needs to be saved."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Jin nodded and said seriously: "Well, my brother needs you to continue to save him. Keep saving him."
Sugar baby: "..."
Brother, you are sick.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, a smile appeared on his lips, and he pulled Tangbao up.
Da Pan was no longer the timid Da Pan, he directly reached out and held Xia Siya's hand.
"Let's go up together." Da Pan said.
Xia Siya twitched but did not pull out, and simply acquiesced with a blushing face.
"Hey! The road is so slippery, do you need me to help you?" Er Pan asked Princess Linghua.
Princess Linghua stretched out her hand.
Er Pan showed a trace of pride on his face and reached out to pull Princess Linghua.
Princess Linghua said: "Pomegranate, drag me up!"
Shiliu glanced at Erpan, suppressed a smile and pulled Princess Linghua up the hillside.
Zhao Wu patted Er Pan on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Master Er Sun, you should learn from your elder brother."
After saying that, he looked at his footing, jumped up, and quickly swept up the hillside.
Although the hillside is not high, we don’t know what’s going on up there.
For the safety of his masters, Zhao Wu naturally had to go up to check first.
Tangbao and others went up to pick flowers, while Yu Zhilan was still giving lectures to the young scholar Su Chengyao in the carriage.
Several guards stayed behind to guard the carriage.
The closer you get to the ice lotus, the stronger the fragrance becomes.
Tangbao frowned.
"What's wrong?" Xuanyuan Jin noticed immediately and asked.
"According to Master's notes, the Ice Lotus only emits a very light fragrance. Such a strong fragrance... is not normal." Tangbao said thoughtfully.
Xuanyuan Jin paused in his steps.
As Sugar Baby said, it is really abnormal for a flower with such a strong fragrance to grow in this ice and snow.
Moreover, rare things either grow in inaccessible places or on the top of cliffs and peaks, and they always attract birds and beasts to wait for them, but here...
Xuanyuan Jin looked around.
The hillside is not high and it is not inaccessible.
From here, you can even see two wooden houses built at the foot of the mountain in the distance, which are clearly signs of human activity.
"Zhao Wu!" Xuanyuan Jin shouted coldly.
Zhao Wu had already jumped to the hillside. Hearing this, he shouted: "Master, there is no danger here."
"Sister Fuya, are the people here...not aware of the preciousness of ice lotus?" Xia Siya guessed.
"Maybe." Sugar Baby couldn't think of a reason.
Soon, everyone climbed up the hillside.
When everyone went up the hillside, they discovered that there were many snowdrifts piled up on the hillside.
From a distance, they look like tombs, high and low.
Ice lotus grows on the edge of the other side of the hillside.
The petals are like ice crystals, shining crystal clear in the sun.
When everyone reached the hillside, they discovered that the fragrance of the ice lotus was really strong.
"Wow! It's so beautiful!" Xia Siya exclaimed.
The sugar baby also had a hint of surprise on his face.
"This is really not an ordinary ice lotus." Tangbao said: "I read an ancient book in the library of Tianlong Temple. It records a kind of ice lotus that has been around for thousands of years. When it blooms, it has a strong fragrance and only costs thousands.
For years, no one has seen it again..."
"Su Tang, you mean...this is the long-extinct ice lotus?" Princess Linghua pointed at the ice lotus and said with shock on her face: "We have encountered a great opportunity.
?”
Er Pan snorted, concealed the pride on his face, and said casually: "What's so strange about this? My little aunt is here, she's just a thousand-year-old ice lotus, so she can meet her casually!
"
Princess Linghua: "..."
Er Pan rarely refuted, but quickly put away the shocked expression on his face.
She is too superficial!
She has witnessed so many miracles with Su Tang, why is she still making such a fuss?
Princess Linghua thought about herself for a second because of her unusual appearance.
Xia Siya looked around with a strange expression on her face.
"It's really strange. It is recorded in the book that when exotic flowers and plants bloom, they will attract many animals to come and protect them." Xia Siya said: "Such a strong floral fragrance, such a rare ice lotus in the world, so lonely.
Open here..."
Nothing feels normal.
At the very least, it makes sense that there should be a few ferocious beasts guarding it.
"I'm afraid all the animals in the snowy and icy mountains are hibernating." Da Pan said, "Besides, with my little aunt here, those beasts will naturally avoid them so as not to scare my little aunt."
Xia Siya suddenly realized, "That's right."
She is too superficial!
Xia Siya, like Princess Linghua, also reflected in her heart.
The corner of Tangbao's mouth twitched.
She felt that she had to have a heart-to-heart talk with her two nephews.
The poisoning is too deep!
Promoting feudal superstition all the time!
This is unacceptable!
"Master, this is a protrusion." Zhao Wu stood on the edge and said loudly.
After saying that, he looked down.
The white mist below gives people a very mysterious feeling.
When the cold wind blows, there is a distant whistling sound, as if it comes from the ground.
Zhao Wu did not dare to admit that his legs were shaking a little, so he quickly took a step back.
Sure enough, the place where such strange things grow is not simple.
If the exposed area collapses, the people above will fall directly into the deep valley.
Who knows what it’s like down there!
Zhao Wu thought like this and took another step back.
It turns out that the place where the ice lotus grows is a large piece of thick ice that sticks out.
There is nothing underneath the ice.
"Little princess, how do you pick this ice lotus?" Zhao Wu looked at Tangbao and asked.
Tangbao took out the prepared cold jade box.
"It is recorded in ancient books that when picking Ten Thousand Years Ice Lotus, you need to cover the light at noon so that the light cannot reach the flower stems, and then use an ice knife to cut off the flower stems..."
Tangbao said as he walked towards Ice Lotus.
"Then let's surround the ice lotus." Xia Siya followed Tangbao and said excitedly.
Princess Linghua looked up at the sun that was approaching noon, and said with a thankful face: "Fortunately, we arrived in time. If this happened at 1:30 in the evening, after noon, wouldn't we have to wait until the next day to pick it?
?”
"You are right." Sugar Baby said with a smile: "The flowering period of such rare things is usually very short. By the time you come back tomorrow, the best period of efficacy will have passed."
Even some rare medicinal materials will turn into poisons after their validity period has expired.
After the sugar baby finished speaking, he stepped on a snowdrift and jumped over.
Then, he looked back again.
Why did she feel that there was something moving under her feet just now?
