Chapter 140 The Lotus on the Snow Peak
The word Tianshan for Tianshan snow lotus does not mean that this thing only grows in a place called Tianshan, but refers to a mountain that towers into the clouds and meets the sky, commonly known as high altitude.
"Yo~" Xiao Bai trembled from the cold.
"Don't be afraid, just take this opportunity, let's do some cold resistance training, and you will have more advanced cold resistance after we go down." Gu Shanhai didn't mean to abuse Xiaobai, mainly because of the geographical environment here It is indeed too suitable for corresponding training.
Xiaobai knows the truth, but the main reason is that he is really cold.
Gu Shanhai did not enjoy it alone, mainly because of his strong strength and the resistance provided by the natural mark, etc., he didn't mind the low temperature at all.
"Yo~~" Xiaobai can only admit it honestly, and he also knows that he probably will be fine and can become stronger, but this is really cold and a bit unbearable.
"I remember that there seems to be a Tianshan or Xueshan faction near here. When the time comes, go there to rest and use my reputation as the number one in the world to make a wave of face." Gu Shanhai teased, which can be regarded as a compliment to Xiaobai The goal of looking forward to the plum is quenching thirst.
But then again, who would build a sect in this year-round low temperature, no wind and snow, and high altitude? Just transporting materials up is a big problem.
The world of Chinese martial arts is not the world of high martial arts. There is no need to eat and drink water. Even if you are a master of rivers and lakes, living at such a high altitude is inconvenient.
Gu Shanhai really wanted to complain about the problem with this thing, but he really lived there, so his desire to complain was suppressed in the end.
Soon, Gu Shanhai came to his senses, as if he really didn’t lack this little money, no matter what kind of sect he was, he needed the abundant Tianshan snow lotus.
This thing was born in this kind of environment, and if it is sold and then sold, it will make money.
If you have money, you still worry about messy things. Money may not be everything, but it is absolutely impossible to have no money.
That is to say, this sect is essentially a monopoly of Tianshan Snow Lotus, and its customers are Tianzong Momen and the imperial court, so there is no shortage of channels.
As for the possibility that these three major forces might seize it, it is unlikely. The first is the breeding method, and second, this is a place of bitter cold. Who wants to come here.
Let the exiles or prisoners come? They also dare, what if they destroy the ecology with a grudge in their hearts.
What's more, the cost is also very high. It is better to buy it yourself than to grow it yourself. Large-scale planting also requires costs.
That's why this sect has a living place.
The higher Gu Shanhai and Xiaobai went up, the more intense the wind and snow could feel. There was no altitude sickness. Each person and deer were both physically strong and had various resistances. .
"Hey, the concentration of spiritual energy seems to be about 10% higher than that of the ground. What is the reason for this?" Gu Shanhai was a little curious.
"In this way, the comprehensive strength should be. Oh, not very good, there are no people here." Gu Shanhai originally wanted to say which faction above has strong comprehensive strength, but then he thought, whether it can gather five hundred disciples is a problem.
It is said that they are disciples, but maybe they are all lotus pickers.
This kind of thing is normal. If it is not a sect but a chamber of commerce, it will only be annexed by a big force.
"But having said that, why does this thing grow on a cliff, and the one I like stands on the top of a snow mountain." Gu Shanhai complained that this planting method still needs to be improved.
Can't they be planted and picked in a unified way? These have to be fixed.
"Who dares to trespass on the forbidden area of the snow mountain!" In the wind and snow, a scold came.
I saw two men and one woman wrapped up tightly, even covering their eyes with a black veil to avoid snow blindness. They looked like fat penguins from a distance.
"Elder, you must have read it wrong, right? There is no one in such a heavy snowstorm." Another male voice came, with some hesitation in his tone.
"But I just saw a huge black shadow carrying someone through the wind and snow." The elder also hesitated.
The two disciples are speechless, the huge black shadow is still carrying a person, do you know that you are so brave to lead the sect?
Regardless of whether the thing is a human or not, normal logic should not make a sound. It is okay if it is a human, maybe it can communicate, but if it is not human, then they will be over.
There have always been many strange legends on the snow-capped mountains, but I have never encountered them.
"Forget it, it must be my delusion, we should go up the mountain as soon as possible, the Tianshan snow lotus on the top of the mountain is about to mature, we have to pick it in time, this flower is extraordinary, maybe it has triggered some kind of heaven and earth phenomenon." The elder's tone was also the same. It quickly became firm.
Their task of going up the mountain this time is naturally for the extraordinary snow lotus on the top of the mountain.
The more the two disciples listened, the more uncertain they became. But if the elders talk about individuals, they can bite the bullet and follow up. It turned out to be good now, what kind of visions of heaven and earth.
The road up the mountain is very calm, and there are no disadvantages except that it is colder and snowier, the road is difficult to walk and the temperature is getting lower and lower.
As they climbed to the top of the mountain, they saw the huge figure that the elder said.
"Yo~"
The deer-like roar and the absurdly huge horns, accompanied by the oncoming fear of the wind and snow made their scalps tingle.
"You guys are from the Snow Mountain School, right?" Gu Shanhai asked in the snowstorm.
Only then did the three of them get their thoughts back, and they also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. If it's a person, that's good.
"Exactly, I don't know who you are?" The leader of the Snow Mountain School Elder cupped his hands and asked, but when he saw Gu Shanhai, his pupils shrank, and he thought to himself: Such a strong true energy, in such a wind and snow Wearing only a robe but moving freely, should not be underestimated.
"." The elders of the Snow Mountain Sect were also speechless. Why did they have a destiny with you? They noticed it three months ago, and they arranged for people to come to see it from time to time. A cut-off.
If you want to, just say it straight, and even shirk the predestined relationship, nonsense.
"To tell you the truth, it is really destined to me, so I have lost three years of my life." Gu Shanhai also sensed the speechlessness of the other party.
Gu Shanhai really didn’t lie when it comes to shortening his life, but the unit of time is not years. Well, three days of life was consumed when divination and prophecy.
The main reason is that you said that your life expectancy will be reduced by three years and your life will be reduced by three days. The two are different shocks.
"Hey, your excellency doesn't know, this Tianshan snow lotus is not mine, but it is left by the suzerain of Tianzong, it is really not easy to hand it over to your excellency." The elders of the Xueshan sect can only talk about it at this time. Good goods must be kept at the bottom of the box and will not be handed over easily.
"Come on, take a look at what's on my neck?" Gu Shanhai pointed to his head, and then said: "This is called a head, it's filled with brains, not water."
"Let's not say that the Sect Master of Tianzong is here today, just add another Sect Master of Demon Sect. If he dares to stop me, I will beat him to death."
It took him three days of life to grab the chance, why should you have to give it up when you move out?
This changed the expression of the elders of the Snow Mountain School. Where did he come from, he didn't know how to save face at all. The world is not about fighting and killing, it's about the way of the world.
"Your Excellency is so arrogant, you are not afraid of my Snow Mountain Sect?" The elder of the Snow Mountain Sect said with a straight neck.
"You mean that if I don't give it to you, you will have to hunt me down." Gu Shanhai was also speechless.
"My Xueshan sect is a decent sect. Your Excellency's plundering and plundering like this is out of the righteous way!" The elder of the Xueshan sect is not stupid, how dare he say that, the other party is really powerful, if you kill him here and then bury him, There must be no murderer to be found, so he was still cowardly and only dared to condemn him.
"Then do you know who I am?" Gu Shanhai said with a smile, showing his big white teeth.
The three members of the Xueshan faction were also silent. That’s right, they didn’t know who the person in front of them was, so they had no choice but to take it and leave.
If you want to condemn or make the other party submit through public opinion, you must know who the other party is. Even if you know the identity of the other party, there is another problem involved, that is, if a person with such deep true energy offends, will he Will he destroy the Snow Mountain faction because of keeping it secret?
Thinking of this, the elder of the Xueshan School was also shocked, and hurriedly said: "I don't know!"
"Then I suggest you go to the rivers and lakes to inquire. It should be easy to inquire about people like me." Gu Shanhai's tone was very kind.
Looking at the appearance of the other party, it is obvious that he should not know the latest things in the world, otherwise, how could even someone as popular as him not know.
This is actually a relatively normal thing. The Xueshan faction is located in a remote and dangerous place, and the frequency of communication with Jianghu is also relatively limited. It is normal for information to be delayed. Gu Shanhai has only been famous for a long time, at most two months, and there is no correspondence. In the case of the communication system, they don't know at all.
'This kind of character is not easy to inquire about, it's just...' The Xueshan faction was entangled in his heart. He knew that this unique Tianshan snow lotus could not be kept.
If he went back like this, he would inevitably be blamed.
It is impossible for the Xueshan faction to make things difficult for Gu Shanhai because of this incident. He is really strong, so it must fall on him.
"Okay, I won't embarrass you, anyway, you have been here for a long time, so take this thing as compensation." Gu Shanhai said, he took out a elixir and threw it over: "Seven Treasure Spirit Ginseng Pill, after taking it, it can increase the power for thirty years, and it can also be used to hang life and heal injuries."
The other party quickly picked it up with surprise on his face, he had never heard of Qibao Lingshen Pill, but the medicinal fragrance permeated from this pill made him feel refreshed and his true energy appeared Judging from the traces of growth, it is definitely a precious medicine.
Not to mention that it can hang your life and heal your injuries. This is much more practical than that Tianshan snow lotus. They Snow Mountain School only know that this snow lotus is extraordinary, but no matter how extraordinary it is, it cannot compare to thirty years of skill.
"Your Excellency is a pharmacist?" The elder of the Snow Mountain School asked cautiously after putting away the elixir.
"Well, it is." Gu Shanhai replied vaguely. The current words are farmers and Tianqiao fortune tellers. He is actually still learning as a pharmacist. Lotus seeds are roasted and kneaded into balls, which are mixed with some alchemy.
Yes, in fact, it is similar to dishes such as braised lion head and Sixi meatballs. It belongs to medicinal diet rather than elixir.
"So that's it. I was rude. I don't know if you have accepted this snow lotus. If you have time, go to my Snow Mountain Sect to sit and see the scenery of the Snow Mountain Sect." The elders of the Snow Mountain Sect were also excited, blame? It can't cover his head anymore, just this Qibao Lingshen Dan is enough, it would be even better if another pharmacist was invited back.
It’s not that their Snow Mountain Sect doesn’t have pharmacists, it’s just that they don’t have such high-level pharmacists. It would also be a great benefit if they can make some connections or give advice to one or two of their pharmacists.
"Tsk, it's a bit serious to be arrogant and condescending. I still like your unruly appearance just now." Gu Shanhai teased, the other party has really reached the level of people in the world with sophistication and tact, thick-skinned, just like just now It's like nothing happened.
"It's just a joke, it's just human nature." The other party said that as long as he is not embarrassed, then the embarrassing person will be someone else.
"Yo, yo!" Before Gu Shanhai made a statement, Xiaobai said that he would go. He felt that he was frozen in this generation, and he was about to be frozen into a grandson.
"Okay, okay, I got it, let's go over there to warm up." Gu Shanhai was speechless when he heard Xiaobai's words. Why did the deer talk more and more, and he didn't know who taught it. How could he be frozen into a grandson, and he was also frozen into Confucius.
"Then trouble you to wait for a while, we will set off together after I pick the snow lotus." Gu Shanhai turned his head and said something to the three of them.
The three members of the Snow Mountain faction naturally had no objections.
As the snow lotus bloomed slowly, it finally bloomed into pure white flowers, and was uprooted by Gu Shanhai, shook off the slush and put it in his arms.
Of course he couldn't directly plant it in his body in front of the three Xueshan faction, but stuffed it into his bosom and then planted it.
Then refine it and cultivate it into a spiritual plant.
‘Meditation, rejuvenation, peace of mind, nourishing the soul, and also provides sufficient cold resistance and related affinity, plus its own medicinal value, not bad. '
This Tianshan Snow Lotus is a little worse than the King of Herbs, but it is also a top-notch spiritual plant. The three effects of calming down, resting the mind and calming the mind can make him fearless of going crazy, various inner demons and external influences, not to mention The soul-nourishing effect of Level 1 Tianshan Snow Lotus is twice as strong as the soul baptism effect of Level 3 Baijiangtai, and it can be nourished passively without absorbing other people's souls and spirits as nutrients.
Of course, nourishing the soul in Baijiangtai's soul baptism is only part of the function, unlike Tianshan Snow Lotus, which belongs to the main business, it is really not good to challenge the profession with interest.
