After walking for more than an hour, Cen Xue clearly felt that it was getting colder and colder, and it was getting more and more biting. Cen Xue couldn't help but shrink back more and more, hiding under his cloak, and the aura of death became more and more intense.
It was strong, but compared to the biting cold wind, this was more bearable for her.
Tenge saw her shrinking into a ball and deliberately pulled up her hair. Her slender body was shrouded in front of him. He was a big man with a strong body. He had lived in such an environment for nearly thirty years.
This year, the weather in the canyon was considered very good. Fortunately, there was no ice and spores.
"Thank you..." Cen Xue felt a burst of warmth behind her and said softly.
"Sit tight, the road ahead will be difficult." Tenge ignored her thanks and reminded her to sit tight.
Cen Xue sat firmly in front of him. Not long after, they came to a relatively steep road. The weather inside was getting colder and colder, so many of the roads inside were frosted, and a thin layer of frost formed on the ground.
It's a thin ice skate, so be extra careful when your horse walks on it.
Tenge slowed down the speed of the horse and let it walk over step by step. Don't rush. This horse is Tenge's mount, called "Anuida". It seems that he understands the owner's meaning very well. Slowly
They walked through this section of ice road. By the time they passed this section of the road, it was already midnight. Not far ahead, they also saw the Langye cave where Father Wu lived.
Speeding up the journey, a group of six people finally arrived at the door of Father Wu's cave. Tenge asked the other four to stay outside the cave to make a fire to keep warm. He took Cen Xue into the cave alone to find his father.
Cen Xue followed Tengge. This hole was so eerie, with the smell of death everywhere. It was the same feeling that Tengge gave him, "death"
"Dad, are you there?" Tante stretched out his hand to hold her, fearing that she would get lost behind him.
The cave became emptier the further inside, and various skeletons were hung on the stone walls inside the cave. They were all cow bones, but the sight of them up close still made her a little scared.
"Brother Tenge, is dad not at home?" Cen Xue asked him timidly after waiting for a while and no one responded.
"It's impossible. If the old guy doesn't have something particularly important, it's impossible for him to leave this cave. What's more, you see, the torches on the wall and the charcoal in the furnace are burning so vigorously. If it were replaced by
After you go out, will you continue to let the torches and charcoal burn like this?" Tenge pointed at the lighting torches on the wall and the charcoal in the heating stove and analyzed.
Cen Xue nodded, what he said makes sense.
"The Khan is here, and Dad is far away to welcome you." At this time, an old man's voice came from a dim cave.
Cen Xue looked over there alertly and saw an old man about seventy years old, with wrinkles on his face but a strong body, walking out of the dim cave step by step.
"Daddy, you're welcome. I came here today to ask for something. I hope daddy can help." Tenge didn't go around in circles with him, and made his purpose clear in one sentence.
Father Wu wrinkled his old face and smiled: "Khan can come here in person, he can't be here to chat with an old man like me. Tell me, what is the matter?"
In fact, when Father Wu saw Cen Xue covered with a veil, he could almost guess what was going on and came to him for help.
Teng pulled Cen Xue up to Father Wu and motioned with her eyes to take off the veil on her face and let her father see.
Cen Xue understood what he meant, and with trembling delicate hands, she untied the veil on her face, lowered her head, and revealed her right cheek, which was full of reddish-brown scars.
When Father Wu saw it, he immediately frowned and said, "Who is this, who is so cruel? I see that the scar on half of your face is too deep, girl. It is not easy to restore it to its original appearance 100%.
things."
"If it were easy, why would I come here to ask you to take action?" Tenge knew his temper. Even if he came to him with a minor illness or pain, he would not be willing to see him. As long as there are people with some ability, most of them will
Most are like this.
It has to be some kind of intractable disease to be willing to help!
Cen Xue didn't say a word. After her father saw the scars on his face, she put on the veil again and looked at the elderly Father Wu with a pair of longing eyes.
Father Wu looked at Cen Xue and understood her mood. Judging from the uninjured cheek on the other side, she was originally an extremely beautiful woman who was alluring the country. Now that she has ended up in such a state, she must be very, very sad.
"Khan, daddy won't play tricks on you. There are two ways to treat this injury." After thinking about it for a while, daddy told him truthfully.
"Which two methods can you tell me quickly?" Tenge asked anxiously. When Cen Xue heard this, she became nervous.
Because she saw Father Wu frowning when he said this, which meant that the method was somewhat difficult.
Father Wu had never seen Khan so excited. After he asked them to sit down, he slowly explained clearly: "First, let the girl take a medicated bath that I personally prepared. This medicated bath has a certain degree of toxicity, but it can be
Don't worry, Khan won't take the girl's life. Dad just wants to force all the poison onto the girl's injured cheek. Then he cooperates with Fu's unique secret.
Apply a thick layer of the ointment prepared by the doctor. This ointment is used to detoxify the poison of the medicinal bath. It has a certain corrosiveness. If an ordinary person attaches the ointment to the skin, he will definitely be burned by the medicinal properties of the ointment.
But I have locked the poison in this place on the girl’s face. While detoxifying, it can also dilute and lighten the reddish-brown scars on your face.”
"Wait a minute - is this method safe? You said this ointment is corrosive, will it burn her face?" Tante asked, somewhat confused.
"Well, just because ordinary people would burn their skin when applying it, I asked her to take a medicated bath to control the toxins on the right side of her face, allowing the detoxifying ointment to penetrate into the skin of the face and remove the toxins, and use this effect to remove the toxins.
The staggered reddish-brown scars on the face have been reduced, do you understand?" Father Wu explained again.
"I understand, is this the first method?" Cen Xue said this time before Tenge said it.
"More than that, this is just the first step, there is a second step." When the father said this, he frowned worriedly.
Tenge saw his difficulty and asked: "Dad, are you having trouble with the second step?"
Father Wu nodded and said: "As long as you successfully survive the first step, the condition on your face will be restored to 50%! However, there will still be uneven scar marks on your face because you were injured too deeply. The second step is
There are absolutely no missing steps, but the problem is that when preparing the medicinal materials for this scar removal ointment, I am missing the most important medicinal ingredient, "Seven Color Beauty Flower"!
Tenge and Cen Xue looked at each other. They had never heard of this thing?
"This seven-color beauty flower is a rare medicinal herb in the world. The seven petals have different colors. As long as it has it, the injury on the girl's face can be restored to the same as before. There will be absolutely no trace of reverie, and even
More beautiful than before!" Father Wu said carefully.
"Where is this flower? I'll order someone to pick it back immediately." Tenge asked eagerly.
"Khan, if this flower could be picked so easily, Dad wouldn't have to worry." Dad Wu shook his head and said.
When Cen Xue heard this, although she was a little disappointed, her father said that as long as she could successfully pass the first step, her face would be restored to 50%, and she would be satisfied if she could recover to 50%.
"Brother Tenge, Dad, don't make things difficult for you. Cen Xue knows that the injury on his face is very difficult to recover from. As long as he can recover 50%, Cen Xue will be satisfied. Don't make things too difficult for you."
Cen Xue was afraid that her affairs would bring trouble to them, so she expressed her thoughts first.
Father Wu didn't say anything, but Tenge couldn't agree with her words. He looked at her firmly and said, "Remember what I told you that night. I will definitely find a way to heal the injury on your face.
Now we just need a medicine introduction. I will definitely find the seven-color beauty flower and pick it for you to use as medicine to heal the scars on your face!"
"Okay - it's indeed a beauty accompanying a hero!" Dad shouted with admiration.
It’s just that her father’s words made Cen Xue feel a little sorry. She is Zhi’s woman. No matter the past, present or future, as long as she lives in this world, she will be Helianzhi’s woman. She will never betray Zhi or tell anyone else.
man.
Tenge could clearly see the emotions in her eyes. How could he conquer this woman?
If he had taken her away by force on the street that day, maybe she would have been his Kedun now. It was God's will. But now he has the chance to do it again. He doesn't mind that she was once the beloved concubine of King Loulan.
He only cares about who is the man in her heart in the days to come?
"Actually, there is no need to be so desperate. I remember that ten years ago, it was also a freezing day. When I went to the top of Langye Mountain to pick snow lotus, I saw a seven-color beauty flower halfway up the mountain.
Very beautiful, but it grows in
Halfway up the mountain, the terrain is too steep, and it’s useless for my father to pick it back. It’s been ten years now, and I don’t know if the seven-color beauty flower halfway up the mountain is still there, or maybe it has been picked away by someone.”
Years ago, that was ten years ago.
"Where is it at the top of the mountain? Can daddy take me to the top of the mountain to look for it?" Since the flower is in Langye Mountain, it is a blessing from God that he has to go there himself no matter what.
"Khan, dad is already seventy-three this year and can no longer go up the mountain. When Tana comes back, let that kid take you. He followed dad back then and has a better memory than dad. He will definitely be able to guide you.
Found it." Tana is the child picked up by Father Wu. He is in his twenties this year.
Twenty-five years ago, if Father Wu had not gone to the mountains to collect herbs and picked up Tana, he would have been eaten by wild wolves in the mountains. Over the years, Tana has been by his father's side to take care of him.
He is his son and his apprentice. Whenever there is a serious illness in the tribe, Tana will be asked to see a doctor. If I don't see him now, he must have gone out to see a doctor for you and has not come back.
"That's fine. I'll leave you with Cen Xue's matter. Once it's done, I will be rewarded heavily by the Khan!" Tenge stood up and bowed politely towards him at 90 degrees.
Seeing him like this, Cen Xue immediately stood up and followed his movements.
"Khan, you don't have to be like this. Dad just hopes that when you go up the mountain, you can pick more snowdrops for dad and come back!" Dad smiled.
"Okay, we will definitely do it." Tenge was full of confidence that he would be able to bring back the snow lotus and the seven-color beauty flower.
It got dark early in the mountains, so a group of six people spent the night in Dad's cave. Fortunately, the place was very spacious. In addition to the hall where they were, there were several stone rooms.
