Chapter 253: Searching for the Ghost Lotus
Chapter 253: Searching for the Ghost Lotus
Since the eldest lady lay in bed, Shuang'er has been staying by her side all the time. She has not slept for two days and two nights, and her little face looks haggard.
At this time, she saw Guru jumping and dancing on the bed and shouting loudly. She was very dissatisfied and planned to come over and take it away.
But when she walked to the bed and looked into Feng Qingcheng's eyes, Shuang'er couldn't help but be overjoyed and tears fell down.
"Miss, you're finally awake! I was so worried about you!" Shuang'er cried, her eyes red and full of resentment.
The little sable stretched out its pink tongue and licked Feng Qingcheng, squeaking non-stop.
"Okay... cough cough." Feng Qingcheng opened her lips slightly, but just after saying a word, she couldn't help coughing twice.
At this time, Mo Yun rushed in from outside and shouted happily: "Sister Feng, that's great! You finally woke up!" Mo Yun was even more excited. When he learned that Feng Qingcheng was a girl, he didn't know how to address her for a while. He felt very complicated. After a long time, he calmed down and called her sister affectionately.
As for Mo Yun, Feng Qingcheng treated him as a younger brother, not a servant.
"Miss, wait a minute, I'll go get a doctor!"
Shuang'er turned around and was about to leave, but Feng Qingcheng grabbed her wrist. She shook her head slightly and said softly, "No. You. Take out a healing medicine for me."
Feng Qingcheng said that every word was difficult and was accompanied by pain in her body.
"Oh, okay!" Shuang'er didn't think much about it and quickly took out a white jade bottle. This was a holy medicine for healing that had been prepared long ago and left for Feng Qingcheng.
After Shuang'er served Feng Qingcheng the medicine, it dissolved in her body and instantly spread throughout her body. This was a holy medicine specifically for repairing injuries, and its effect was extraordinary.
Feng Qingcheng suppressed both her fighting spirit and spiritual energy and did not use them. She only let the power of the medicine spread to every corner of her body to repair it.
After taking three pills, she recovered quickly. In the evening of the next day, Feng Qingcheng was able to get out of bed and move around.
During this period, Wang Weian, the lord of Danxia City, came to visit specially and left elixirs.
It was not until three days later that the internal injuries recovered and there were no sequelae.
"Shuang'er, how many days were I unconscious?" Feng Qingcheng asked.
"Miss, it has been ten days since we came back!" Shuang'er replied.
Feng Qingcheng was shocked. She didn't expect that so much time had passed. In these three days, she didn't see Cang Xuanye, Mu Tianjue or anyone else. She couldn't help but feel curious.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince and his men have gone to war. It is said that an ancient tomb has appeared in the canyon east of Cangxuan City. It seems to have been left by a very powerful beastmaster."
Shuang'er explained the reason. On the seventh day that Cang Xuanye and Mu Tianjue were guarding Feng Qingcheng, which was the night before she woke up, something unusual happened in the sky. A beam of light shot up into the sky, and intelligence came in about an unusual movement in a canyon in the east.
Later, it was learned that there was an ancient tomb buried there, with a very powerful treasure, and that this canyon was originally in the territory of Nanling Country. Now the strong men of the Golden Wolf Country sent people to open the ancient tomb and obtain the treasure. It is said that this was to deal with the One Yang Holy Feather Bow in Cang Xuanye's hand. After all, this was a powerful weapon, too terrible on the battlefield, and something was needed to resist it.
The Xuandu Kingdom would naturally not follow the Golden Wolf Kingdom's wishes in their conspiracy and would have to stop it. If necessary, it could even obtain treasures to enhance its own strength.
Danxia City was no longer threatened because of the arrival of the second batch of reinforcements from the rear in the past few days. That was why Cang Xuanye left Feng Qingcheng in the city.
Two days ago, Cang Xuanye, Mu Tianjue and other powerful men set out.
Only after hearing the news did Feng Qingcheng realize what had happened.
Now that she has woken up, Feng Qingcheng’s key task is to quickly find the Ghost Lotus and solve her own problem.
Without delay, she got up and searched some pharmacies and auction houses in Danxia City, but she did not find the Ghost Lotus. Many people had never even heard of it.
At noon, Feng Qingcheng visited Wang Weian. After all, he was a master and well-informed, so he might know some information.
"Lord City Lord, do you know the Ghost Lotus?!"
Feng Qingcheng asked directly without beating around the bush.
"Ghost Lotus!" Wang Weian was slightly stunned, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"Does the city lord know?" Feng Qingcheng said anxiously.
"I know, this is an eighth-level spiritual medicine, which is rare in the world."
"Where can I get it? This magical medicine will be of great benefit to me. I wonder if the city lord would be willing to tell me." Feng Qingcheng searched all over Danxia City, even a nearby market, but in the end there was no news.
"This medicine is too precious. Even the imperial capital Lin'an may not be able to find it." Wang Weian shook his head. Feng Qingcheng's face changed slightly when she heard that. She didn't have much time. Maintaining the two energies like this would not last long. She had to find it as soon as possible.
“However.” Wang Weian’s tone changed, as if he had something else to say.
"But what?" Feng Qingcheng asked.
"But there is a place where it is very likely to be found." Wang Weian's words gave Feng Qingcheng great hope. "The Ghost Lotus must grow in extremely cold places. The ancient tomb that was just opened in the east may have it, but now that the strong men of the Golden Wolf Country have gathered here, they want to find the treasure. In addition, there are unknown things in the ancient tomb itself, so it may be very dangerous."
At this time, Feng Qingcheng didn't care whether it was dangerous or not. If she didn't find the ghost lotus, she might not live long. This was a death warrant and must be resolved as soon as possible.
"Thank you, Lord City Lord!" Feng Qingcheng hurriedly thanked him.
"Oh! That's a dangerous place. You will be in danger if you go there! Why take the risk for a ghost lotus?" Wang Weian sighed.
"Lord City Lord, thank you for your kindness, but the Ghost Lotus is extremely important to me, so I must go. Besides, didn't the Second Prince and others also go? I will be safe if I find them."
Seeing that Feng Qingcheng had made up her mind, Wang Weian stopped trying to persuade her. Instead, he gave her some elixirs and a talisman that could save her life at the critical moment.
After Feng Qingcheng thanked them, she left and returned to the house to tell Mo Yun and Shuang'er that she was going to the ancient tomb.
"Miss, it's too dangerous. I want to go with you!" Shuang'er knew that she couldn't persuade the young lady, so she said she wanted to go with her.
Mo Yun also took a step forward and looked at Feng Qingcheng with a determined look. It was obvious that he wanted to go too.
"Okay, you two should stop joining in the fun. We might run into strong men from the Golden Wolf Country this time. If I go alone, I can still escape with the help of my secret technique, but if I take you with me, it might be dangerous." Feng Qingcheng said to the two of them solemnly with a determined look.
In the end, Feng Qingcheng couldn't be persuaded, so Mo Yun and Shuang'er had to agree not to go with them.
