After picking a few spider lilies and putting them away, the two continued to walk deeper into the forest. But strangely, it seemed that the deeper they went, the fewer guards there were.
As they walked further in, the red flowers that filled the sky seemed to gradually lessen. What entered their eyes was another type of flower. It was a gorgeous ball-shaped flower. There were red, pink, white, blue, and yellow. It was dazzling and made people forget their worries when they saw it. Ye Li's eyes tightened as she stared at the sea of flowers in front of her. Mo Xiuyao lowered his head and asked softly, "Li, what's wrong?" Ye Li raised her head and took out the spider lilies that she had just picked. She pointed at the sea of flowers in front of her and said, "Xiuyao, we must have made a mistake. That should be the Hidden Luo Flower. "
Mo Xiuyao was startled, "What do you mean?" Ye Li said in a low voice, "It's best if I'm wrong. If the Nanzhao people only grow these flowers for ornamental purposes, then it's fine. If there are other uses … … "
Mo Xiuyao asked, "Is there something wrong with these flowers?" Ye Li said softly, "These words sound very beautiful, but if they were used on the evil path, the consequences would be unbearable. These flowers can be made into the best painkillers. "Mo Xiuyao didn't understand," Isn't that very good? "Nowadays, the painkillers used by the various countries were none other than the numbing powder. But the formula was troublesome and the ingredients were not common. On the battlefield, only high ranking generals could use them. Normal soldiers could only endure the pain and die from the pain.
Ye Li shook her head, "Because if you're not careful, you can become addicted. It's very difficult to quit. If you use it for a long time, you will become weak and wither. Once it's broken, you will go crazy with pain. It can be said to be the best medicine for controlling puppets. It's more effective than any poison. Once this thing spreads, it wouldn't be strange if it could destroy an entire country. "
Mo Xiuyao stared at the sea of flowers in front of him, deep in thought. After a while, he looked up at Ye Li and smiled, "Although I don't know how Li Li knows all this, but I trust Li Li. Let's go inside and take a look. "Seeing the white-haired man holding her hand and walking forward, Ye Li's heart skipped a beat. She had never put up her guard in front of Mo Xiuyao. If it was said that at the beginning, it was said that he was testing her, but later on, he gradually got used to it. She was used to Mo Xiuyao's seemingly endless tolerance. She had revealed a lot of things that she shouldn't have known, but Mo Xiuyao had never asked her about them. Sometimes, he would even help her smooth things over. Perhaps … she finally understood why Mo Xiuyao had always been so uneasy.
After turning around the valley, what entered their eyes was still a seemingly boundless sea of flowers. After walking for a long time, they finally saw a magnificent palace at the end of the valley.
"There's someone here." Mo Xiuyao pulled Ye Li into his arms and hid behind a pile of rocks. Sure enough, not long after, they heard voices coming from afar. That voice was very familiar to Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li. "The thing I want, have you prepared it?"
A cold male voice came from not far away. Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li looked at each other, then looked at the man who was walking over with a few women dressed in Southern Border clothing. It was Mo Jingli. Standing beside Mo Jingli was the beautiful Southern Border Princess Xi Xia. These past few years, Mo Jingli had been very good to her. Even though she was a few years older than Ye Ying, she still looked charming and beautiful.
Standing in front of them was an old madam in her fifties, holding a sinister-looking snake-headed cane in her hand. Looking at Mo Jingli, she smiled and said, "Prince Li, don't worry. All the doctors in our Holy Land have worked together for so many years and have finally developed the divine medicine that Prince Li wants. I guarantee that the effects will be better than what Prince Li wants. "
Mo Jingli said coldly, "Is that so? Then I will wait and see. I hope Elder won't disappoint I. "
The elder smiled confidently and said, "Of course. Since it's a cooperation, we naturally have to satisfy both sides. As long as Prince Li keeps his promise, it's fine. Men, bring the medicine men here. "
Not long after, a few disheveled people were dragged over. From Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li's position, they couldn't see them clearly, but they could see a person's figure and appearance. He should be from the Central Plains. That person's eyes were cloudy and unfocused, and his face was sallow and emaciated, as if he had no strength. His expression was sluggish, and his mouth was dripping with saliva. He looked like an idiot born with dementia.
The elder smiled and said, "What does Prince Li think? In order to guarantee the efficacy of the medicine, we have specially found a few people from Da Chu State to be the medicine men. " Mo Jingli carefully observed the medicine men, and seemed very satisfied. He asked, "Not bad, how long have these people been fed the medicine?" The elder smiled and said, "Less than a month." Mo Jingli was even more satisfied. "Very good. I agree to what you have proposed. "The elder was even more satisfied. He smiled and said," Prince Li is indeed straightforward. The Holy Maiden will definitely be very grateful to Your Highness Prince Li. "
Mo Jingli snorted and said indifferently, "We each took what we needed. Give it to I, I still have to rush to Nanzhao Kingdom. " The elder didn't hesitate. He took out two porcelain bottles and handed them to Mo Jingli. He said, "This is three months' worth of medicine. It's enough for Prince Li to use. It's not easy to take medicine and refine it. Our valley's doctors have only refined this much after so long. "Mo Jingli put it away and said," Many thanks, elder. I will take my leave. "The elder smiled and said," I'll have people escort Prince Li out of the valley. "
After Mo Jingli left with Princess Xi Xia, the girl following the elder asked, "Elder, who did Prince Li ask for this medicine for?"
The elder sneered and said, "Who else could it be for? These people from the Central Plains have always been incomparably vicious. They won't even let their own blood relatives go. I don't know what kind of deep hatred the Emperor of Da Chu State has with Prince Li that he would torture his own brother like this. You girls shouldn't get too involved with the people of the Central Plains. If one day you get harmed by them, you won't even be able to cry. "
The girls giggled. "We're not afraid of those people from the Central Plains. We'll use poisonous snakes to bite them to death. Otherwise, we'll imitate Prince Li and give them some Nepenthes powder. Let's see if they'll still be obedient. "The elder smiled as he reprimanded the girls. At the same time, he led his people into the palace.
Outside the palace, the voices gradually faded away. Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li stood behind the pile of rocks and turned their gazes to the beautiful sea of flowers. "Nepenthes powder? Mo Jingli gave it to Mo Jingqi? "
Ye Li sighed softly and said, "Mo Jingli's move is really vicious. If Mo Jingqi really fell for it, his life would be ruined. Look at those people just now. A month ago, they were definitely normal and healthy people. "
"What plans does Li have?" Mo Xiuyao asked in a low voice. Ye Li looked at the grand palace in front of her and said in a low voice, "Let's go in and take a look." Mo Xiuyao nodded. He picked up Ye Li and jumped onto the roof of the palace. When they landed, there was no sound at all. Even the guards outside the palace did not hear anything. The two quietly landed. Ye Li frowned and said with some confusion, "The Sacred Land of Nanjiang should be a very tight place. Why is it that the guards on our way here are so lax?" Mo Xiuyao thought for a moment and said, "In this place, the experts have probably all left by now."
Ye Li's heart jumped. "You're talking about Nanzhao Imperial City?"
Mo Xiuyao nodded. "If the secret of the Sacred Land of Nanjiang is this Hidden Luo Flower, then it is not that important whether there are experts guarding it or not. I'm afraid that even if someone really enters the valley, they may not be able to find the Hidden Luo Flower. "The Hidden Luo Flower was the legendary Sacred Land of Nanjiang. No one would think that the Sacred Land of Nanjiang could grow all over the place. And even if a few of them were taken away, it would not have much of an impact on the Sacred Land of Nanjiang.
"It seems that Shu Manlin and Tan Jizhi's plans in Nanzhao Imperial City are not small. We should go back early, in case Big Brother and the others worry." Leaning in Mo Xiuyao's arms and waiting for the patrolling guards to pass, Ye Li said in a low voice.
To see his beloved wife so concerned about Xu Qingchen, even if he knew that they were only siblings, Mo Xiuyao could not help but feel jealous. He curled his lips and said, "Young Master Qingchen's wisdom is unparalleled. What is there to worry about?"
Ye Li reached out and pinched him. She said helplessly, "How did Big Brother provoke you? Don't think that I don't know that you deliberately misled Big Brother into thinking that Big Brother likes men. " Mo Xiuyao snorted softly and muttered in a low voice, "I'm only speaking the truth. Li, you also want to blame me. Li, you're really biased … … "
When a man was childish, he could have no bottom line. This was the experience that Mo Xiuyao had given him in the past few years. Ye Li rolled her eyes. She was too lazy to bother with him. She carefully walked forward.
"Who are you? Since you're here, why don't you show yourself?!" Suddenly, an old voice came from the palace. Ye Li cursed in her heart, but her body did not move at all. Even her breathing quietly slowed down a lot. Mo Xiuyao quietly approached her and shook his head at her. Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked around. They had hidden well along the way. It was reasonable to say that they were in the palace and even if the palace was behind them, it should be impossible to find them.
The palace was quiet for a while. The old voice sounded again, but with a bit of anger, "You trespassed into my Sacred Land of Nanjiang. Do you want me to personally come and invite you out?"
On the roof opposite, a black shadow flew down and laughed loudly, "I'm Lei Tengfeng of Xiling. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
The person in the palace snorted and said, "So it's the Crown Prince of Jhennam Of Gojoseon. I was wondering who had the guts to trespass into my Sacred Land of Nanjiang."
Lei Tengfeng smiled and said, "I trespassed here because I had no choice. Please forgive me. I really have something to ask of you. Please allow me to see you. " They hadn't seen each other for a few years, but Lei Tengfeng was a lot more mature and steady than he was five years ago. With a few words, the anger of the people in the hall lessened by quite a bit. "The Crown Prince of the Zhennan King actually has a request for this seat, it's really rare. Come in, let me hear … … "
Lei Tengfeng smiled and said, "Of course it's a matter of mutual benefit. I wouldn't dare to let you suffer a loss."
Ye Li leaned in Mo Xiuyao's arms and quietly pointed at Lei Tengfeng in the courtyard opposite the palace. Mo Xiuyao nodded. After seeing Lei Tengfeng enter, he let go of Ye Li. With a tap of his foot, a swan goose silently landed on the roof of the main palace.
