On the way, the three of them recalled their days in the military camp, and they all felt a surge of emotion. Ling Xiao said, "Now that the world is at peace, I feel particularly sad when I think of those brothers who died on the battlefield."
Mo Liansheng also looked sad. "It's my incompetence. I don't have superpowers, so I can't save more brothers."
Nangong Xian sat on her black horse and plucked a nameless flower from a tree, playing with it in her hands. Hearing the two men's sentiments, she said, "War has always been cruel. Since ancient times, when kings launched wars, the people suffered. Who isn't a child of their parents?"
Nangong Xian is brave and good at fighting, but she does not like war. She hates war more than anyone else.
Pinning the flower beside his ear, Nangong Xian untied the canteen on his horse's back, took a sip, and sighed, "May this prosperous era last forever, and there will be no more wars!"
Lingxiao: "Well said, General!"
The three of them were riding ordinary mounts, and horses also need rest and cannot run day and night.
At night, the three of them set up camp at the foot of the mountain near the lake to rest. Sitting by the campfire, Mo Liansheng poured a bowl of wine for Nangong Xian and Ling Xiao. "It's cold in the mountains. General, Guardian Ling, drink this wine to warm your bodies. This wine is a medicinal wine brewed by my father-in-law, but it didn't help with fatigue."
Nangong Xian, Lingxiao and Mo Liansheng were close friends. After taking the wine bowl handed to them by Mo Liansheng, they drank it in one gulp without any hesitation.
After drinking a bowl of wine, I felt warm all over.
After a night's rest, the three of them rode up the mountain early the next morning.
At three quarters past four, they finally arrived at the lake.
The lake in front of us has clear and green water. At first glance, it looks like an emerald embedded in the middle of the mountains.
This lake has a touching name, called Beauty's Tears. It is said that a girl named A Ling learned that her husband who was a soldier died in the battle, so she knelt here and cried for a long time, and thus this lake of Beauty's Tears was formed.
The three of them propped up the small bed and searched for the trace of the strange beast on the lake. After searching for more than an hour, they still couldn't find any trace of the strange beast.
Mo Liansheng looked up at the blazing sun overhead, figuring it was almost time for the poison to take effect. He said, "Perhaps the strange beast is hiding underwater, spying on us. Spirit Guard, you're the best swimmer. Would you like to go down and take a look?"
Lingxiao felt that Mo Liansheng's consideration was correct. He took off his coat and sword, held his breath, and dived into the water.
The water was also crystal clear, allowing the naked eye to see things dozens of meters away. Ling Xiao swam in the water for a while, holding his breath, and prepared to return to the surface for a breath.
But at this moment, Lingxiao's heart suddenly ached.
Lingxiao realized something was wrong and tried to swim faster to get out of the water, but he only swam three or four meters before his heart ached terribly.
Ling Xiao was extremely anxious, realizing that he might die in this lake. He struggled hard for a few times, but he was more than 20 meters underwater, and there was no splash on the surface.
Nangong Xian stared at the slightly shaking lake surface and said, "Why hasn't Lingxiao come up yet?"
Mo Liansheng said, "The Lingxiao guards are very good at swimming. They can often hold their breath underwater for more than a quarter of an hour. General, there is no need to worry."
Nangong Xian looked at the swaying water in front of her and felt uneasy.
"No, I have to go check it out!"
Although Lingxiao is a good swimmer and can stay in the water for more than a quarter of an hour, he is not on a mission now, so there is no need for him to work so hard.
"Liansheng, you are not good at swimming. You stay in the boat while I go down to investigate!"
Mo Liansheng looked at her deeply, then nodded and warned her: "General, please be careful, the water is deep."
"Um."
Nangong Xian jumped into the water and swam more than 20 meters to the bottom, but she didn't see Ling Xiao. Nangong Xian felt something was wrong, so she continued to dive, and after diving more than 10 meters, she finally saw Ling Xiao.
Lingxiao was dead, his body was suspended at the bottom of the water, slowly floating upwards!
Nangong Xian was shocked. She quickly swam to Lingxiao's side, grabbed Lingxiao's ankle and swam above the lake.
Nangong Xian was not very good at swimming, and dragging a 160-pound man in the water was like killing her.
Nangong Xian swam to the surface with all her might, spit out the water in her throat, and anxiously shouted to Mo Liansheng: "Liansheng, hurry up, Lingxiao is drowning, see if you can save him..."
Nangong Xian turned to look at Mo Liansheng while speaking. When she saw Mo Liansheng's expression, Nangong Xian was stunned and forgot what to say.
"Liansheng, you..."
Mo Liansheng, who was wearing it, used all her strength to pull all of Nangong Xian's Sun-Chasing Arrows, and the sharp arrows on the round bow were aimed at her!
"Mo Liansheng, what are you going to do!"
Nangong Xian's eyes turned cold. Even though she was in a miserable state at the moment, her majestic aura still frightened Mo Lian!
Mo Liansheng was not as strong as Nangong Xian, and he had already tried his best to successfully pull the Sun-Chasing Arrow.
Mo Liansheng's arms trembled. He aimed at Nangong Xian, his eyes red as he growled, "Nangong Xian, are you stupid? There are no such things as strange beasts in this world! You are the strange beast! I'm going to dig out your heart and use it to make medicine to save your sweetheart!"
Nangong Xian frowned as she looked at the frantic Mo Liansheng. She couldn't help but ask, "Can my heart save His Majesty?"
Mo Liansheng's expression became ferocious and twisted, "Of course! You are a medicine man! You were born with the fragrance of medicine in you. You are a treasure of heaven and earth. Your whole body, from the inside out, is a miraculous medicine that can save lives!"
He had read all this in his father-in-law's shaman book. It said that medicine men were people who had been taking special medicinal herbs since their mothers' wombs. The biggest difference between medicine men and ordinary people was that their bodies carried a strange medicinal fragrance.
