After frantically collecting a lot of Dragon Tendon Vine and Luminous Grass, Lin Muyu once again fell into a dilemma. She said sullenly, "I've collected everything, but I'm still missing Needlepoint Birds. What should I do …"
"Needlepoint Birds?" Qin Yin smiled faintly, "I've heard of it. It's a very small bird. What do you want Needlepoint Birds for?"
"Bone Muscle Replenishment Powder can't be mixed with water. It must be mixed with blood. The blood to be used is the blood of Needlepoint Birds." Lin Muyu looked up and said, "Grandpa Qu Chu, do you know where to find Needlepoint Birds?"
Qu Chu pondered, "Needlepoint Birds only hunt at night. Their food is fireflies flying in the night sky. So we must find Needlepoint Birds in places with water. There is water in the Dragon's Tomb. We will camp by the water tonight. You guys have a good rest. I'll go catch some Needlepoint Birds. How many do you need?"
Lin Muyu thought about it and said, "If we kill, we need 20. If we don't kill and only bleed, we need at least 50 Needlepoint Birds. Grandpa Qu Chu, you'll have to work hard and catch 50 Needlepoint Birds."
"Yes."
Qin Yin smiled faintly and said, "It's a good thing that Yu doesn't want to kill."
"Ha, look at what Your Highness said. It's just that the Needlepoint Birds are too small. Otherwise, we can bleed them first and then roast them …" Lin Muyu grinned, "I feel so hungry when I talk about this …"
Qin Yin raised her eyebrows and raised her nose slightly. She looked at him proudly with her beautiful eyes. It seemed that she had to re-evaluate this guy.
…
At night, they camped by a nearby stream. Qu Chu quickly caught enough Needlepoint Birds and then sat quietly to watch Lin Muyu refine medicine. In fact, one of the main reasons why he was so eager to help was to let Lin Muyu teach him the formula of level 10 medicine refining, and Lin Muyu did not keep it to herself and passed it on. Anyway, Qu Chu's poor understanding of medicine refining would probably not be able to learn it.
Lin Muyu continuously refined the medicinal essence of the Dragon Tendon Vine and Luminous Grass while Tang Xiaoxi and Qin Yin used the sharp edge of their daggers to bleed the Needlepoint Birds. Each bird only let out a few drops of blood and then they were released. The two of them fought to do this work, otherwise it would have been Qin Lei's turn to do it. If Qin Lei's knife went down, perhaps even an elephant would die, not to mention a pocket-sized bird like the Needlepoint Bird.
Drops of fluorescent medicinal essence fell into the cup and fused with the Needlepoint Bird's blood. Very quickly, there was a reaction, and a faint fragrance floated in the air. No one would have thought that these things fused together would have such a strange fragrance.
After refining more than 20 bottles of Muscle Replenishing Powder in one go, Lin Muyu handed a bottle to Qin Lei and said, "Big Brother Qin Lei, drink this bottle?"
Qin Lei stared blankly, "My Dragon Tendon hasn't been broken, why would I drink this?"
Lin Muyu couldn't help but smile, "The full name of Muscle Replenishing Powder is' Muscle Replenishing Bone Restoring Powder '. It has a very good healing effect on injuries of broken tendons and bones. You're so heavily injured, maybe your tendons and bones have been injured. Drinking a bottle is always good, lest there be any hidden injuries or disabilities in the future."
"En." Qin Lei received it and drank it in one gulp.
Lin Muyu also drank a bottle. It hadn't been long since his ribs were reconnected. Originally, he would need to rest for at least half a month to recover, but with the effect of Muscle Replenishing Powder, he would be as good as new in three to five days at most.
She carefully put away the bottles of Muscle Replenishing Powder. These Muscle Replenishing Powder were the spirit medicine that could save Zhang Wei. After all, Zhang Wei was a martial artist. If he really couldn't practice martial arts, then perhaps his entire life would be ruined, and he would be better off dead!
This night, with Qu Chu's protection, he could finally have a good sleep. He drowsily slept until dawn, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the sun rising in the east.
He took a deep breath, inhaled and exhaled the purple spiritual power, only to feel that the fighting energy in his body was quickly abundant. This night's rest allowed him to recover at least 80% of his fighting energy. However, his injury was too serious, so it was not suitable for him to fight for the time being. Otherwise, the bandaged wound would not only reopen, the previous efforts of reconnecting the bones would also be wasted. Looking at his chest, a piece of white cloth was used as bandage. The white cloth was dotted with beautiful golden purple flowers. This was the skirt that Qin Yin tore off to bandage for him. He could even feel Qin Yin's delicate fragrance on it. He was probably the only one in the world who could receive such treatment.
…
They set off at dawn. After leaving the range of the dragon tomb, they found a warhorse and gave one to Qu Chu to ride. Tang Xiaoxi and Qin Yin shared the other horse. The five of them walked in the winding mountains.
Two days later, they entered the imperial area of the Dragon Seeking Forest. It was only a day's journey from the imperial capital.
In the afternoon, when they were watering the horses.
Lin Muyu took off the battle robe that was dyed red with blood and washed it in the stream. Streaks of blood flowed along with the stream. After washing it repeatedly, it was finally clean. Using a tree branch to poke it into the saddle, Tang Xiaoxi playfully opened her hands and used the high temperature of her martial spirit, the Fire Fox to roast it. It was very quickly clean, but it was only clean on the outside. Lin Muyu's tight-fitting white undergarments and the armor of the Holy Temple were actually dyed red with blood. However, there was no way to wash it, so they could only leave it like this. Furthermore, the main reason for washing was because they were about to reach Lanyan City. As one of the guards of Her Royal Highness, he had to be mindful of the dignity of the royal family.
On the other hand, Qu Chu was dressed in a white robe that was exactly the same as what Qin Lei was wearing. They were both White Robed Imperial Guards. The workmanship of this kind of white robe was even more exquisite. On it, there was even a purple flower embroidered with the empire's emblem, making it look dignified and elegant. In comparison, the armor of the Holy Temple looked even more like it was bought from a treasure chest. Luckily, Lin Muyu was born handsome, so it did not look out of place when she wore it.
Late at night, they entered the vicinity of the Royal Hunting Grounds.
Qin Lei carried his blade and said with a smile, "Not long later, we should be able to see the Imperial Army Camp led by Feng Jixing. It should not be more than thirty miles away from here. Shall we travel through the night?"
Qu Chu nodded his head, "En, alright!"
This time, Qin Lei walked at the front to clear the path, Qu Chu was behind him, Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi were in the middle, and Lin Muyu was at the very back, in charge of protecting the two beauties.
It was another dark and windy night. Dark clouds covered the sky, and the forest was covered in darkness. Roars of tigers and wolves could be heard from afar. Qin Lei held the Thunder Split Blade in one hand and a torch in the other, and said, "Be careful, the mountainous terrain here is rugged, don't let the war horses lose their footing."
"Yes, I know." Qin Yin replied.
But just at this time, there was a sudden sound of wind breaking!
"Whoosh!"
That was the sound of a cold arrow. Lin Muyu was very sensitive to this, because it was precisely this sound that caused him to suffer a fatal injury, and he almost lost his life. This sound was forever engraved in his mind.
"Be careful!"
When he shouted, Qu Chu had already leaped off the war horse. He opened his palm, and with a "pa" sound, he caught the cold arrow in the dark night. His gaze turned cold, and he said, "Who are you, scram out here!"
But what answered him was an even more concentrated arrow!
"Protect Her Highness!" Qin Lei shouted loudly.
Lin Muyu quickly urged his horse to arrive in front of Tang Xiaoxi and Qin Yin. He raised his hand and shouted in a low voice. The wall of the calabash blossomed with an indigo light, and the Black Tortoise Shell slowly moved on the wall of the calabash, shooting out arrows one after another. Meanwhile, Qin Lei had already entered the forest with his blade in hand. With a low roar, purple lightning illuminated the surroundings, and killed a group of people who shot arrows.
"Capture Qin Yin, the reward is one million Jin Yin coins!" It was unknown who shouted, but immediately after, many people carrying long swords rushed out from the forest. Every one of them wore a silver badge on their chest, and on it was the image of a sword.
"People from the House of Chivalry?" Qu Chu muttered.
Tang Xiaoxi clenched her teeth, and said indignantly, "Qu Chu, last time, it was these people from the House of Chivalry who almost killed me. This time, they actually dared to target Xiao Yin. This is too despicable, this House of Chivalry!"
Qu Chu smiled slightly, "Princess and Her Highness, please be at ease. Today, with me, Qu Chu here, no one can hurt you."
As he spoke, Qu Chu suddenly opened his arms, and with a roar, he struck out with his palm. The light of the Fire Cauldron Martial Spirit exploded, and this palm actually transformed into a huge fire palm, blasting into the forest!
"Peng!"
Dozens of warriors from the House of Chivalry were killed one after another, and Lin Muyu was slightly stunned as she watched. No wonder people said that Qu Chu's palm technique was the best in the world, and it seemed that it was indeed so!
Once Qu Chu made his move, the group of warriors were all shocked. Immediately, someone cursed, "Damn it, which bastard sent back fake news! This is not Qin Yin, Tang Xiaoxi, and the others at all. Unexpectedly, even the white-robed Qu Chu is here. Quickly retreat, the operation is canceled, or else all of us will die here! "
However, Qin Lei had already raised his saber and was killing everywhere in the crowd, as if there was no one around. These people basically couldn't escape.
"Capture one alive!" Qin Yin said indifferently.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Qin Lei laughed loudly.
At this moment, three sword-wielding warriors went around Qu Chu's position, and went straight towards Qin Yin. Each of them had their faces covered, and they shouted in a low voice, "Either capture Qin Yin, or kill Qin Yin, attack together!"
Qin Yin pouted, "These bastards who are not afraid of death …"
"Don't, Your Highness doesn't need to do anything."
Lin Muyu smiled slightly, and suddenly opened her right hand. Lightning flashed, and the long sword was suddenly unsheathed. Lightning lingered around the blade of the sword, and with a "shua" sound, it broke through the air!
"Pu pu pu …"
Like a skewer of candied haws, it consecutively pierced through the bodies of the three assassins. This strike was really too fast, and those with lower cultivation were unable to dodge it.
Lin Muyu raised her finger, and the long sword spun back, and with a "keng" sound, it entered the sheath, as if nothing had happened.
Tang Xiaoxi giggled, "This Imperial Sword Technique … is really too cool …"
Qin Yin nodded and agreed with a smile.
…
Not long after, Qu Chu and Qin Lei returned. Qin Lei had killed dozens of people in a row, and was already panting, but he still had an assassin in his hand. He had already knocked the assassin out, and hung him directly on the horse. He said, "After we return to Lanyan City, we will interrogate him properly. I want to see what kind of bear's heart and leopard's heart this House of Chivalry has eaten to actually dare to lay their hands on Her Highness and the Princess."
Qin Yin nodded, "Yes, this matter should not be delayed, let's quickly set off to meet up with General Feng!"
"Yes!"
At about dawn, the empire's war flags appeared indistinctly in the distance, and they finally arrived at the imperial army's camp.
A war horse galloped over, and it was Feng Jixing. Carrying a war knife, he elegantly flipped over the horse, and cupped his fists, saying, "Her Highness, Princess, you are finally back. I was worried to death!"
As he spoke, he raised his head and smiled, "Master Qu Chu, you are back too?"
"Yes, General Feng has worked hard."
