Chapter 698 Take It Back to the Inn

After leaving the dense forest, we returned to the spacious road and walked slowly along the path. Because the sky was dark, we rested for the night. In the early morning of the next day, we finally returned to the Lai Qu Inn.

The inn is still the same as before. In the early years, Li Changxiao planted green bamboos on both sides. Now they are in groups, green and straight, and the bamboo leaves are dripping with dew but not yet.

Li Changxiao put down Liu Ju and picked up a long bamboo tube from the ground. It was hollow inside. He used a long tube to collect dew, drop by drop, in an orderly manner. The bamboo groups on the left and right sides were exactly as tall as a person, making it convenient to pick dew without bending down or raising hands.

After a while, the bamboo tube was half full, and the dew emitted a refreshing fragrance, mixed with a bit of bamboo smell. After a gentle sniff, I felt refreshed, as if there was a fresh breath flowing from the nose to the abdomen. If you are a hungry and thirsty person, if you can take a sip, your whole body will be completely empty of hunger and fatigue in an instant, which is a miracle.

Li Changxiao gave Liu Ju, Qu Xiaochan, and Qing Chunhua each a sip. When they saw their pupils trembling, they all felt so magical. Li Chang smiled leisurely and sent the three of them to the inn, letting them lie down on the ground respectively.

Qing Chunhua was originally a wealthy young lady, pampered and untouched by spring water, but her previous experiences had worn away her young lady temperament. She only felt that the ground of this inn was far better than the wilderness jungle. Lying on the ground, she did not feel aggrieved. .

Li Changxiao took off the clothes of the three of them. Liu Ju was the most serious, with almost his whole body covered with snake scales. Qu Xiaochan was a little better, but she was also paralyzed on the ground, unable to move except for her eyes. Qing Chunhua had the strongest resistance due to her extraordinary martial arts. She could still move freely, but her hands and feet were numb and she couldn't use any of her kung fu.

Li Changxiao had long known that there were strange beasts in the northwest mountains. He had gone into the mountains to strangle them, but he could not finish them all. After a while, they would wreak havoc again.

Now that the world is collapsing, the prehistoric world is getting closer and closer, and there are more ferocious beasts in the prehistoric world. Although they can't be seen everywhere, they are hidden deep in the dense forest, creating many weird and shocking stories, casting a shadow of fear on the hearts of people all over the world, but they have a real impact.

Li Chang smiled and said to himself: "In the mountains in the northwest, there are the most snakes, followed by leopards with human heads and bears with bellies..."

He had never noticed it before, but now that he thought about it, he vaguely felt that aura, as if he had seen it somewhere before. He suppressed the doubts in his heart, and the top priority was to save people.

He took a silver needle and acupunctured Liu Ju and the others. The end of the needle was connected with a red silk thread. The silk thread was inserted into the bottom of the bamboo tube filled with dew before, and then the bamboo tube was hung up.

In this way, the dew in the bamboo tube will slowly drip along the red silk thread to the place where the needle is applied. Li Changxiao followed suit. After everything was arranged, he said: "When the dew dries up, you will be fine."

Then he lay back on the Taishi chair, rocking gently, holding a bamboo fan in his right hand. The breeze stirred up by the fan brought up strands of clothes, giving him a peaceful and leisurely look.

Qing Chunhua and the three of them looked at each other in pairs and had no choice but to lie on the ground and wait quietly. After an hour or two, the snake scales on Qing Chunhua's back have all faded away, and the symptoms of paralysis in her hands and feet have gradually disappeared.

She seemed to have endless energy and wanted to draw her sword to kill people. She thought to herself: "I'm afraid this dew is not an extraordinary thing. I might as well absorb more." She didn't even struggle and just lay on the ground.

Li Changxiao glanced at it, taking in all the cleverness. He shook his head and laughed, ignoring it and enjoying himself. At this time, a bird flew from the window and stood affectionately on top of Li Changxiao's head. It "chirped" and pecked at Li Changxiao, trying to attract Li Changxiao's attention. Seeing that this method was useless, it flapped its wings again and flew back and forth in front of his eyes.

Qing Chunhua looked at it intently and was greatly surprised. She saw that the bird's feathers were golden and beautiful, and it was very extraordinary. It seemed to have intelligence, and it was pestering Li Changxiao to play with it.

Li Changxiao was helpless by the noise. He took out a ball of wool from his pocket and gently threw it into the air. The golden bird chirped, holding the plush ball in its mouth, and returned it to Li Changxiao's hand.

Tossing and picking it up is a joy. Qing Chunhua's eyelids twitched. She was teasing Wangcai like this when she was in Qing Mansion. After playing for a while, Li Changxiao stretched and felt sleepy. The golden bird was very spiritual. It flew back to its small nest under the eaves, buried its head under its wings, and fell asleep as usual.

Qing Chunhua's eyes were sharp. When she came to the inn for the first time, she thought the inn was weird, but now that she looked at it again, her feelings were completely different. As long as you observe carefully, the uniqueness of this shopkeeper has already been reflected in the details.

Qing Chunhua thought: "He said he was an old friend of Master. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that it must be true. When I recover, I must ask him carefully."

She had actually recovered a long time ago, but she was just greedy for the effect of the dew and never got up. The green bamboo in front of Lai Qu Inn, whose original name is "West Desert Bamboo", is a kind of bamboo that ward off evil spirits. Its dew has the effect of expelling evil spirits, dispelling filth and washing the body.

It happened to be able to remove the venom from the scholar's snake, and Liu Ju, Qu Xiaochan, and Qing Chunhua were able to bathe their bodies with the evil-proof dew. In the future, ordinary evil and strange things would no longer be able to intrude on the three of them. It is truly a rare opportunity.

In Li Changxiao's view, things are dispensable, but in the eyes of the world, they are hard to find but cannot be found. At noon, Li Changxiao waved his hand, the silver needle flew back to his hand, and all three of them were cured.

Liu Ju said, "Thank you, senior, for the rescue." Qu Xiaochan slowed down a step and said, "Thank you, senior, for the rescue." Although both Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan were slaves, Liu Ju was observant of words and conduct, and was far smarter and more understanding than Qu Xiaochan. .

It was also because Qu Xiaochan was a woman, and she had a better relationship with Qing Chunhua, and she had a vague affection for her sisters, so she lost a bit of respect and inferiority. Over time, she developed a pampering feeling. However, Liu Ju did not receive such treatment and always abided by his duties.

Li Changxiao smiled and said, "No need, I want to receive payment." Li Changxiao asked the three to stay and work as waiters for a month in return for saving their lives.

Qing Chunhua was embarrassed and told Li Changxiao that although she was traveling in the mortal world, she also had a mission. She had a senior brother who participated in the rebellion because he was dissatisfied with the tyranny of the emperor of the Dapan Dynasty, but was captured and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison.

Her trip was to investigate the situation and rescue the senior brother if possible.

Li Changxiao was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help thinking, "Zhang Mo seems to have quite a few disciples."
