Chapter 45 Good Brothers Are So Kind
He took a sip of oxygen from Teng Su's hand, and the little stars surrounding his eyes finally disappeared.
Qin Qinsen's face still looked bad, but Anxi's fate had just been changed. In order for her body to be able to withstand this extremely precious fate, she had to obtain the blessing of the spirit of plants and trees as soon as possible.
The group followed Qi Qingshan, walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow. The Teng brothers and sisters all had a habit of exercising and were in good physical condition. Qi Qingshan, needless to say, had been running all over the mountains since he was a child and felt more at ease in the mountains than in the city.
Qin Qinsen was the only one feeling frustrated. He'd lost too much blood, his body was depleted, and his wound had ruptured again. The doctor had scolded him and ordered him to be hospitalized on the spot. But he had to catch an early flight out of Hai City the next day. The doctor was furious, grabbing him and his companion, Teng Su, and scolding him profusely.
Although the patient was released, a large number of medicines were prescribed for emergency use. Even the portable oxygen cylinder was a "friendly" contribution from the responsible and caring doctor.
So much so that at this moment he was enjoying the treatment of a national treasure, surrounded by the Teng brothers and sisters. From time to time, they handed him hot water, oxygen cylinders, and even beef jerky.
"You've been eating all the way, aren't you tired of it?" Qin Qinsen picked up the fallen candy wrapper after rejecting Teng An's snacks for the eight hundredth time. "Be careful, don't litter."
"Oh, I was careless." Teng An swallowed the beef jerky in his mouth and hurriedly stuffed the garbage into his pocket. "How long do we have to walk?"
Qi Qingshan, who was leading the way, slowed down his pace and said, "It's almost there."
Thinking of Qi Qingshan's surprise when they met this morning, Qin Qinsen was worried that he was concerned about his health, so he didn't dare to speed up, so he said bluntly, "Go ahead, don't worry about me."
"No, that's right... I want to ask, what should we do when we see Ah Can? From what you said, he's seriously injured. Can he recover after so many years?"
Asan was the name he had given to the thousand-year-old red-topped ginseng. He remembered walking with Asan through the entire forest, their laughter and playfulness visible everywhere. Perhaps it was homesickness now, as he walked along the once-familiar road, the closer he got to his destination, the more anxious Qi Qingshan felt, and his pace naturally slowed.
"Plants and trees are naturally nourished by nature, using the essence of the sun and moon as nutrients. This mountain..." Qin Qinsen looked around, and everywhere he looked was lush greenery. "There are very few developed areas, and the environment is well protected. Moreover, there is abundant spiritual energy, which is perfect for cultivation...plants and trees."
"Let's go, he's waiting for you too."
As they continued to go deeper, the atmosphere around them changed significantly. A very faint sweet and bitter fragrance penetrated Qin Qinsen's nose, "We're almost there."
"Really?" Teng An finally finished eating most of the snacks he brought in his bag. Qi Qingshan had been saying it would be almost time two hours ago, and he was so tired of hearing it that his ears were callused.
Motioning him to look ahead, Qin Qinsen quickened his pace behind Qi Qingshan.
The four of them followed Qi Qingshan through the bushes. When they came to a much more open area, Qi Qingshan ran forward a few steps and said, "This is it!"
Squatting down, Qin Qinsen picked up the purple-red and black soil.
The threat of the thunderstorm from that year still lingers, but it has little effect on humans. Instead, it affects plants...
"Not a blade of grass grows."
"Yeah." Qin Qinsen slowly stood up with the support of Teng Su. "You're quite sharp. Do you want to learn a few tricks from me?"
"Don't stare at big brother, Xiaosen, look at me, can I?"
Pushing away Teng An who was joining in the fun, Qin Qinsen rubbed his head fiercely twice and said, "You are so unstable. Go and follow Mr. Qi to find someone."
Qi Qingshan searched aimlessly.
It was a far cry from what he remembered—trees toppled and broken, their fractures jagged. The grass had completely vanished, replaced by soil mixed with charred mud.
It seems that the air is still filled with the flavor of the past.
"Don't worry, he's been waiting for you here." Seeing Qi Qingshan's anxiety, Qin Qinsen brushed his muddy hands across Qi Qingshan's eyelids, and said in a rare gentle tone, "Seeing is not necessarily believing."
A strange yet familiar tingling sensation came over him - exactly the same feeling as when he was surrounded by thunder and lightning. When Qi Qingshan opened his eyes again, a bunch of small white flowers suddenly appeared in the middle of the open space.
As if sensing his gaze, the little white flower trembled a few times in the wind.
"Ah... ginseng?"
I saw Qi Qingshan kneeling beside the flowers, his fingertips trembling slightly as he approached the white flowers, afraid of hurting them.
"The spirits of plants and trees are not that fragile." Qin Qinsen reached the edge of the white flower two steps later than Qi Qingshan. He estimated the height and simply sat down cross-legged in front of the white flower.
Bai Hua trembled even more violently, clearly conveying some information that others didn't quite understand. Qin Qinsen sighed, "That's all, there really isn't anything more."
The next second, he bit his right index finger, and a drop of blood automatically flew out and dripped into the center of the pistil.
As Qin Qinsen moved, his already pale face turned even more blue, which made Teng Su frown.
On the contrary, the flower that absorbed the blood instantly stood up completely, extending its branches and green leaves in the shocked gaze of everyone, as if it stretched itself, relaxed its muscles, and finally stood up straight and greeted Qi Qingshan.
"Brother, you're so kind. Not only did you come, you even brought something." Ah Can licked his lips, still unsatisfied. "Yin Yang Blood is a great tonic."
Teng Su's brows jumped.
Isn't Yin and Yang blood the thing that Qin Qinsen said he had a way to deal with last time? Listening to the tone of this ginseng, Qin Qinsen's blood is Yin and Yang blood.
"To use a living human body to cross the Yin is truly a great talent of our time."
"You still know about the modern era." After slapping Asan on the head, Qi Qingshan picked up the old friend who was much shorter than him and asked, "Are you feeling better? That thunder last time..."
"Oh, it's okay." Asan put his arm around Shangqi Qingshan's waist. "The thunder tribulation has passed. The spiritual energy in this mountain is still sufficient. I've recovered almost completely. I drank the nourishing Yin and Yang blood today. I can withstand another thunder tribulation!"
As he said this, he puffed out his chest and was very proud.
"Is Yin-Yang blood very precious?" Teng Su had sat down cross-legged at some point, and Qin Qinsen was resting beside him.
"Yeah." Asan nodded.
After all, these people were brought by Qi Qingshan, and they had given him Yin-Yang Blood, so they were definitely trustworthy. He immediately gave them some basic knowledge, "To enter the Xuanmen, one must be gifted with extraordinary talent. And to be worthy of the title of Master, one must not only have outstanding talent, but also possess far superior perseverance and determination, as well as extraordinary opportunities."
"To produce Yin and Yang blood, one must be a formidable figure within the Xuanmen sect. Some of them may not even know anything about Feng Shui or physiognomy, but they are born with a deep understanding of yin and yang, possessing extraordinary talent and compassion. Only such individuals can perform the affairs of the underworld in a living body, safeguarding the balance of yin and yang. Therefore, the Heavenly Dao has great regard for them, and even the gods and Buddhas will extend great favors to them upon encountering them."
"Is Yin-Yang blood a gift from heaven? It contains rich spiritual energy and can be considered a means of preserving and saving lives. However, it is said that it is scarce and extremely difficult to regenerate. Every drop used is one less."
Everyone's gaze made Qin Qinsen feel a little uncomfortable. "How can it be so mysterious? I'm just a worker for the Heavenly Dao. Why don't you say that Yin and Yang blood is a great tonic, so it's a crime to possess a treasure."
Anxi and Teng Su looked at each other, and at the same time remembered someone's heroic bloodletting action yesterday. They both turned their heads and stared at Qin Qinsen.
"Anyway, I don't have it now, so I can relax." Qin Qinsen smiled indifferently, not caring at all.
