19 - The second door
The hazy mist was still lingering in all directions, and it was impossible to see too far away. Only the mountain peaks in the mist were looming, and the area was quiet, windless and silent.
Su Ming looked at the mountain in the mist. This was the second time he came here, and the second time he looked at the strange peak again from this position. Especially when he thought of the countless weird words and patterns carved on the mountain, Su Ming was fascinated. I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
He took a deep breath and looked down at the pendant on his chest. The black fragments on it had disappeared. After pinching his body, Su Ming confirmed again that he was not in a dream, but actually appeared here.
He put his hand into his arms again and saw that the small bottles containing Qingchen powder were still behind him. His eyes flashed and he walked quickly into the mist in front of him. After a while, he arrived at the foot of the mountain peak. When he stepped in Arrived within the passage.
There was no pause along the way until he came to the stone door in the passage. Looking at the fifteen small holes in the center of the familiar circle of lines on the stone door, Su Ming hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and stepped forward. Take out the medicine bottle from your arms, pour out one pill, hold it between your fingers, and put it into the first of the fifteen small holes.
Almost the moment his fingers touched the small hole in the stone door, Su Ming immediately felt a weak suction force suddenly rise from the small hole, sucking in the medicine stones in his fingers.
Su Ming's expression was solemn and vigilant. He didn't know whether his judgment was correct, let alone what would happen after all fifteen holes were filled, but he had thought about this trip for a long time and was vaguely full of expectations.
Without making any rash move, Su Ming looked at it intently after the first small hole sucked the medicine stone. However, after a while, the small hole was still the same as before, without any change.
Su Ming scratched his head. In deep thought, he simply took out another medicine stone and put it into the second small hole to continue. When he put in all fifteen medicine stones with heartache, he felt even more nervous. stand up.
"If there is no change in the fifteen medicinal stones, then they will all be wasted..." Su Ming was looking at the fifteen small holes nervously, but at this moment, soft rays of light suddenly came from the fifteen small holes. The inside suddenly came out.
Su Ming perked up and took a few steps back. He saw that the light from the fifteen small holes on the stone door was getting brighter and brighter. The lines on the entire stone door seemed to be alive, slowly and slowly. It started to rotate slowly, and after a while, it became one piece, spinning rapidly like a whirlpool.
As it rotates, the light in the fifteen small holes seems to be sucked bit by bit into the vortex, causing the stone door to be enveloped in a stream of light, and a roaring sound suddenly rises, echoing in the passage. , deafening, causing ten blood lines to appear in Su Ming's body. The energy and blood all over his body rolled, and he subconsciously resisted.
After the rumbling sound lasted for a while, fifteen wisps of green smoke emerged from the fifteen small holes, as if the medicinal stones inside had been directly turned into shredded tobacco. The fifteen wisps of green smoke appeared. Finally, the huge stone door began to tremble, and a straight gap suddenly appeared in the middle of it.
The gap connected the upper and lower parts, and then the stone door slowly moved to both sides in front of Su Ming, and then opened!
Su Ming's heart was pounding. He was shocked as he watched this scene. It wasn't until the stone door was fully opened that he took a breath. Behind the stone door, there was no passage anymore, but a small stone chamber.
The walls around the stone chamber were not smooth, but had some carved patterns. On the wall directly in front, there was a closed door.
On the roof of this stone room, there are some small stones that are faintly shining, integrated into the walls, and a faint aroma is emitted, which makes people feel refreshed after taking a sip.
Su Ming's eyes flashed, and he walked slowly and cautiously. His eyes scanned the walls around the stone chamber, and he saw that among the scenes carved on the walls, they were similar to what he had seen in the passage before. They were all naked bodies. The figure with disheveled hair was refining medicinal stones in a primitive atmosphere.
When Su Ming entered this place for the first time, he would be confused when he saw pictures like this. But now with the success of its quenching and the extra knowledge in his memory, when he looked at these pictures, he could already see I understand a lot.
The figures in those pictures were refining different medicine stones. Su Ming looked at them and couldn't help but immerse himself in them. After confirming them with his own experience one by one, he seemed to be obsessed and forgot the passage of time.
After reading one picture, he would often take a few steps quickly to look for the next picture. He didn't know how much time had passed. When he finished reading all the patterns with unfinished thoughts, his eyes fell on the closed door in the stone room.
This is a stone door that is slightly different from the first door. It is completely dark and exudes a faint fragrance. It seems that the stone quality of this door is very strange.
There is also a sense of heaviness, and there is also a pattern on it, but the pattern is a huge desolate cauldron, with bursts of tobacco smoke engraved on it, which is quite lifelike. Su Ming looked at it, feeling vaguely like this. Not a pattern, but a truly desolate illusion that is dissipating.
"It would be great if I had such a desolate cauldron..." Su Ming looked at it a few more times with envy.
He saw several different herbs above and on both sides of the deserted cauldron. He immediately became energetic and looked carefully. The purpose of his coming here was to see if there were any other methods of preparing medicinal stones.
On the left side of the desolate cauldron pattern, there were seven kinds of herbs listed. Five of the seven kinds were clearly the medicine for refining Qingchen Powder. As for the two extra ones, Su Ming had never seen them before, so he looked at them intently for a long time. , keep its appearance firmly in mind.
Under this prescription, eight small holes are arranged on the stone door.
As for the right side of the Wild Cauldron pattern, there are eight kinds of herbs. Like the prescription on the left, five of these eight kinds of herbs are still needed to refine Qingchen Powder.
Su Ming's eyes suddenly lit up after looking at the three extra items. Two of them were familiar to him, but they were not common.
Under this prescription, there are still small holes, but the number is slightly more than on the left side, twelve.
As for the third prescription above the desolate cauldron pattern, when Su Ming looked at it, his expression slowly became extremely solemn.This medicine is not a plant or a tree, but three patterns that are frightening to see.
The first one is the tail scale of a python, the second one is the ninth leg of a nine-legged spider, and the third one is a palm-sized dark man with the third finger on his right hand.
What's even more weird is that there are no small holes in the third prescription. It seems that this medicine stone is too difficult to refine, so it is not required to be refined.
Su Ming pondered for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and walked closer to the stone gate. He raised his right hand and pressed it on it without hesitation. Suddenly, the wild cauldron pattern on the stone gate emitted a dazzling light, filling Su Ming's body.
After a period of discomfort, Su Ming once again had a memory in his mind, and also obtained the refining methods of these three medicinal stones and their names.
"Nan discrete!" Su Ming glanced at the left side of the desolate cauldron pattern, and then looked to the right side.
"Shanling Powder... As for the last one... Nashen Powder!" Su Ming muttered to himself as he looked at the strange prescription above the stone gate's wild cauldron pattern.
While Su Ming was thinking, the lingering light outside his body gradually dimmed, and the light of the desolate cauldron on the entire stone door also became fainter. When all the light dissipated, Su Ming's eyes immediately blurred. He was not nervous. Such an experience made him There had been one time before, and there seemed to be strange whistling sounds in his ears. When the whistling sound ended, his eyes slowly became clear, and he was still in his room in the tribe.
Su Ming took a deep breath, immediately walked to the door, moved his chair and pushed open the door. It was still dark outside, the stars in the sky were twinkling, and there was silence all around. There was a night breeze blowing, bringing a cool feeling.
But there was a faint white line on the horizon in the distance, obviously it was about to dawn.
"The time inside and outside should be about the same..." Su Ming closed the door, sat cross-legged again, rested his chin, and began to think deeply.
"The methods for refining these three medicinal stones are different. I have never seen the two herbs in Nan discrete's prescription, so I can ignore them for now. As for...Nashen powder..." Su Ming's pupils shrank slightly.
"This powder is not made from plants and trees, and the things needed are too strange, but in the memory obtained, the vision that appears after the powder is combined is extremely amazing!" Su Ming recalled the memories he had obtained before in his mind. The figure he saw, after being refined into Nashen Powder, loomed, causing the color of the world to change, and the wind and clouds to turn around, and he couldn't help but feel his heart beat.
"If this medicine stone could be refined, it would be amazing! Unfortunately...even the stone door does not have a small hole. Obviously, the refining of this medicine stone is quite difficult...so it has nothing to do with opening this door. "Su Ming thought about it for a moment and guessed something like seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
"The only thing that can be refined right now is Shan Ling Powder. Of the three extra herbs, I know two of them... Although I don't have them in hand, there must be a lot of them in the tribe's Tibetan pharmacy."
While Su Ming was thinking, the sky gradually became brighter outside, and a new day slowly arrived.
Although he had not rested all night, Su Ming did not feel sleepy at all. This feeling became extremely obvious after he reached the second level of the blood coagulation realm, as if he had a lot of energy. Unless he stayed up like this for several consecutive days, otherwise , there won’t be the slightest hint of fatigue.
That morning, when the tribe members were starting a new busy day, Su Ming took a shower. Not far away from the tribe, there was a house made of grass and trees, surrounded by fences, and guarded by tribesmen at all times. Go away.
