Chapter 1596: Brother needs you to continue saving him
When Pomegranate saw it, he opened his mouth.
Xuanyuan Jin glared at Shi Liu and she shut her mouth again.
Never mind, it’s just holding hands.
"Although you've lost so much weight, your hands haven't lost any weight." Xuanyuan Jin pinched Tang Bao's little hand and said, "They still look like a little white pig's hoof."
Tang Bao: "...Brother, you are still the poisonous brother who needs to be saved."
Xuanyuan Jin nodded after hearing this and said seriously: "Well, brother needs you to keep saving him, keep saving him."
Tang Bao: “…”
Brother, you are sick.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pulled Tang Bao upstairs.
Da Pan was no longer the timid Da Pan. He reached out and held Xia Siya's hand.
"Let's go up together." Da Pan said.
Xia Siya pulled away but couldn't pull it out, so she simply acquiesced with a blushing face.
"Hey! The road is so slippery, do you need my help?" Erpan asked Princess Linghua.
Princess Linghua stretched out her hand.
Erpan showed a hint of pride on his face and reached out to pull Princess Linghua.
Princess Linghua said, "Pomegranate, pull me up!"
Shi Liu glanced at Er Pan, holding back her laughter, and pulled Princess Ling Hua up the hillside.
Zhao Wu patted Er Pan's shoulder and said earnestly, "Second Master Sun, you should learn from your eldest brother."
After saying that, he spotted the landing place, jumped up, and quickly rushed up the hillside.
Although the hillside is not high, I don’t know what the situation is like up there.
For the safety of his masters, Zhao Wu naturally had to go up and check first.
Tang Bao and others went upstairs 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.
Tang Bao frowned.
"What's wrong?" Xuanyuan Jin noticed it immediately and asked.
"According to Master's notes, the ice lotus only emits a very light fragrance. Such a strong fragrance... is not normal." Tang Bao said thoughtfully.
Xuanyuan Jin paused.
As Tang Bao said, it is really abnormal for a flower with such a strong fragrance to grow in this snowy environment.
Moreover, all rare things either grow in places where few people go, or grow on the tops 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 is not sparsely populated.
From here you can even see two wooden houses built at the foot of the mountain in the distance, which are clear signs of human activity.
"Zhao Wu!" Xuanyuan Jin shouted coldly.
Zhao Wu had already jumped onto the hillside and shouted, "Master, there is no danger here."
"Sister Fuya, is it possible that the people here... don't know how precious the ice lotus is?" Xia Siya guessed.
"Maybe." Tang Bao couldn't figure it out either.
Soon, everyone climbed up the hillside.
When everyone climbed up the hillside, they found that there were many piles of snow on the hillside.
From a distance, the high and low piles look like tombs.
Ice lotus grows on the edge of the other side of the hillside.
The petals are like ice crystals, sparkling with crystal clear light in the sun.
Only when everyone reached the hillside did they discover that the fragrance of the ice lotus was really strong.
"Wow! So beautiful!" Xia Siya exclaimed.
There was also a hint of surprise on Tang Bao's face.
"This is truly no ordinary ice lotus." Tang Bao said, "I read an ancient book in the library of Tianlong Temple. It recorded a kind of ice lotus that is ten thousand years old. When it blooms, it has a strong fragrance. However, no one has seen it for thousands of years..."
"Su Tang, you mean... this is the long-extinct thousand-year-old ice lotus?" Princess Linghua pointed at the ice lotus and said in shock, "Have we encountered a great opportunity?"
Er Pan snorted, hiding the pride on his face, and said casually, "What's so strange about this? With my aunt here, it's just a ten thousand year old ice lotus, so it's natural to come across it casually!"
Princess Linghua: "..."
Rarely did he refute Erpan, but quickly put away the shocked expression on his face.
She is too superficial!
She has witnessed so many miracles on Su Tang's body, why is she making such a fuss?
Princess Linghua reflected for a second on her own unfamiliarity with the subject.
Xia Siya looked around with a strange expression on her face.
"It's really strange. The book says that when exotic flowers and plants bloom, they attract many animals to guard them." Xia Siya said, "Such a strong fragrance, such a rare ice lotus, blooming here all by itself..."
It feels abnormal anyway.
At the very least, there should be a few ferocious beasts guarding it.
"It's so cold and snowy here, I'm afraid the animals in the mountains are all hibernating." Da Pan said, "Besides, with my aunt here, those wild beasts will naturally avoid her so as not to scare her."
Xia Siya suddenly realized, "That's right."
She is too superficial!
Like Princess Linghua, Xia Siya also reflected on herself in her heart.
Tang Bao's mouth twitched.
She felt she needed to have a heart-to-heart talk with her two nephews.
Too deeply poisoned!
They are always promoting feudal superstition!
This is unacceptable!
"Master, this is protruding." Zhao Wu stood at the edge and said loudly.
After saying that, he leaned over and looked down.
The white mist below actually gives people a very mysterious feeling.
When the cold wind blew, a distant whistling sound was heard, as if it came from the ground.
Zhao Wu didn't dare admit that his legs were shaking, and quickly took a step back.
Sure enough, the place where such rare things grow is not simple.
If the area that has been explored collapses, the people on it will fall directly into a deep valley.
Who knows what it looks like down there!
Thinking this, Zhao Wu took another step back.
It turns out that the place where the ice lotus grows is a large, thick layer of ice that protrudes outward.
There is nothing beneath the ice.
"Little Princess, how do you pick this ice lotus?" Zhao Wu looked at Tang Bao and asked.
Tang Bao took out the prepared cold jade box.
"Ancient texts record that to pick the ten-thousand-year-old ice lotus, you need to block out the light so that the flower stems are not exposed to it. Then, use an ice knife to cut the flower stems..."
Tang Bao said as she walked towards Bing Lianhua.
"Then let's surround the ice lotus." Xia Siya followed Tang Bao and said excitedly.
Princess Linghua looked up at the sun that was almost at noon and said with a look of relief, "Luckily we arrived in time. If we had come a little later in the evening, after noon, wouldn't we have to wait until the next day to pick the fruits?"
"That's a good idea." Tang Bao said with a smile, "These rare things usually have a very short flowering period. By the time you come back tomorrow, the best medicinal period will have passed."
Even some rare medicinal herbs will turn into poison after their efficacy expires.
After Tang Bao finished speaking, he stepped on a snow pile and jumped over.
Then, he looked back again.
Why did she feel like there was movement under her feet just now?
