Chapter 187: Spirit stone

After the women and children were escorted here, Tao Yunqing and Lin Jia quickly left, and they needed to prepare for the next strategy. Although Lin Jia did not explain, Qin Nuo has been able to guess that it is a strategy to entice the enemy to go deep. Including the letters sent by Pei Tuo Yan Chang before, I'm afraid that not only the migrant women and children mentioned, but also the road map for attacking the base camp. The poor Lord Douch, and the first daughter-in-law who set off, became Lin Jia's bait.
This guy really counts everything.
Just arrived in the valley, the high priest invited Qin Nuo to meet.
Qin Nuo followed the servant all the way north, and found that the people of the Xuelie tribe all looked plain and behaved naturally. Apparently very familiar with life here. Bypassing the sloping fields in the north, a white stone building in front of it is revealed. Unlike the humble stone houses and tents in the outside, this building is extremely exquisite, obviously in the style of a temple. It's a bit small.
When he came to the main hall, unexpectedly, Qin Nuo originally thought that the high priest wanted to tell himself not to disclose the secrets of their tribe, but unexpectedly asked Pei Tuo's injury when he met.
I heard that even Zhen Yuezhen was powerless. The high priest hesitated a little and ordered the attendant to get something.
Qin Nuo was puzzled by the white stone beads on the silver plate.
The high priest explained with a smile: "This object is the holy relic of our Xuelie tribe, the spirit stone. This object is contained in the mouth, it can generate ice and fire, stimulate the germination of the body, naturally penetrate the meridian, increase the power, and is effective in treating any injury Works wonders. "
Qin Nuo's cheeks twitched, first a mystery, and then a spiritual stone. Was it true that he had crossed the Xiuxian novel?
The high priest continued to sigh: "In the early years, the numerous warriors in the Xuelie tribe, because of this thing, have achieved great success in a short time. Unfortunately, after a catastrophe, the Xuelie tribe has not left much memory. That little general It is said that the work is extraordinary and can be assisted by this thing to help perform the work and recover in a short time. "
Is there such a magical effect? Qin Nuo is skeptical, but after all, it is the other party's good intentions. And look at the painful expressions of Su He and several other principal sacrifice and attendants around, this stuff should be very precious.
He accepted it in a familiar manner, and thanked the high priest for his help.
"The young general doesn't have to be concerned. The kindness of the former professor Ling Di, I can't wait to report it." The high priest smiled at his beard and laughed.
The temple in the valley is too small to accommodate too many people.
After leaving the temple, Su Luoer took a few attendants and led Qin Nuo to a separate camp area.
"The conditions in the mystery are rudimentary, adults, please take a look first."
Qin Nuo observes the surrounding scene. There are nearly a thousand tents large and small scattered on the sloping ground here, but so many women and children who have migrated live in it, still very crowded. Some strong physiques simply laid the bed out of the camp, anyway, the climate here was warm and frozen.
In comparison, the camp for them was enough.
"Adult rest here, please don't leave the camp area too far. There is danger in this valley," Suluor cautioned.
"Dangerous? Are there beasts in the valley?"
Suluoer hesitated slightly and whispered: "There are many places where sacrifice is located, and you can't set foot at will."
Qin Nuo nodded. Before that, he noticed that although the valley was wide, the camps were built on this slope, which was quite compact. Even the planted land is concentrated in this area.
What surprised Qin Nuo even more was that he settled it all, and Su Luoer thoughtfully asked, "Does the adult want to wash? There is a hot spring nearby."
There is even a hot spring, and it is a geothermal resource. A huge valley can maintain such a warm environment all year round. It is impossible to rely on the surrounding mountain walls alone.
I heard that there is a hot spring to soak, not only Qin Nuo was surprised, even Yan Chang could not sit still.
"We use hot springs, will we not disturb your people?" Qin Nuo thoughtfully asked. There were tens of thousands of women and children of the Xuelie clan this time. Although the Beishu tribe did not have the strict etiquette rules of the Central Plains, Qin Nuo also did not like to bathe with others.
Su Luoer said with a smile: "Master, rest assured, there are hundreds of hot springs in the vicinity. These are exclusively used by tribal warriors in the west. They are all going to battle outside, and they will not return in two days."
Rest assured, the group immediately followed the direction of Su Luoer, all the way east.
After a short walk, he reached a mountain wall with gaps.
Qin Nuo entered along a mountain crevice, took no two steps in the tortuous path, and suddenly looked open.
It is a half-acre valley, and the inner clouds are steaming the Xiawei, the heat is surging, and it really is a hot spring.
There was a strange smell in his nose, and Qin Nuo's eyes turned around. The grayish yellow color caught his attention.
Bend over and touch the surrounding rocks. Microsoft's touch came, and a small amount of powder was scraped off with his nails. Qin Nuo reached the nose and immediately recognized that it was sulfur, and the purity was quite high.
There should be a sulfur mine here. In later generations, it is a mineral resource with high economic value. Moreover, the sulfur hot spring can be developed into an excellent tourist spot in the future.
"These are yellowstones, they can drive away evil spirits." Su Luoer's next introduction also verified his guess, "There are many in the valley. Many people use it to wash clothes, and I heard that there can be no mosquitoes. Every summer, There are special merchants to buy it. "
Sending Qin Nuo to the place, Su Luoer bowed and saluted.
This hot spring occupies a vast area, with dozens of pools, large and small, Qin Nuo is in the best position.
Soaking in the hot water of the hot spring, Qin Nuo narrowed his eyes comfortably. After many days of exhaustion, it was rare to have such a leisurely moment.
This valley is really mysterious. With geothermal heat, sulfur, and fertile soil outside, Qin Nuo is basically sure that this Tianxing Mountain should be an active volcano. Most of these minerals are the products of the eruption.
Even the great earthquake recorded in the history of the Xuelie people more than two decades ago was explained.
In volcanic areas, the crust is unstable and earthquakes are commonplace.
"My son is really slow!" Yan Chang sat on the stone outside, boringly drawing circles on the ground with a wooden stick. "What if there is an enemy attack at this time?"
Chen Chang'an glanced at him, "If there is an enemy attack, the son must be comfortably finished."
Going north this way, the emperor was too tired to support it to this day, far exceeding everyone's expectations.
"My son has also practiced martial arts, and it looks very good." Yao Xingxu laughed. Although the secret of Qin Nuohui's martial arts was not explicitly stated, it was no longer concealable.
Without superb internal skills, it is impossible to persist in the snow run that lasted for many days.
"It should be learned from Bai Guangxi in private." Pei Tuo sighed. Recalling the previous encounter in Feifeng Pavilion, he already understood what the emperor was doing.
They have been accustomed to military life for several years, and even if it is Enron's environment, they cannot completely relax. The so-called washing, which comes out in turn, is cleaned.
Qin Nuo quickly ran a bath before crawling out of the water, put on clothes, and went outside, seeing Pei Tuo and Yan Chang with several people waiting for themselves.
Yao Xingxu and Chen Changan led the others back to the camp to clean up.
Yan Chang greeted him, took the cloth towel by hand, and cleaned Qin Nuo's hair.
Qin Nuo had noticed before, and Yan Chang served people with great care and attention.
"I used to be a soldier in the general's account. These things have been used to, but it was a few years ago." Yan Chang laughed.
Seeing Pei Tuo beside him, Qin Nuoshun took out the present from his clothes before giving it to him.
"Speaking of what is called a spiritual stone, it has a wonderful effect on the treatment of internal injuries. I don't know if your previous injury will leave hidden dangers. Try this first."
"Lingshi, is it zeolite?" Yan Chang stared at the small round beads in Qin Nuo's hands.
Even Pei Tuo was surprised.
Qin Nuo couldn't help asking: "This thing is really rare?"
Yan Chang laughed: "The son is not studying Wushu with all his heart, so he doesn't know this thing. This is a special product of Beishuo. It is said that the original product is in the Xuelie clan. The recovery of the body and the passage of the meridians have miraculous effects. "
"So amazing?" Qin Nuo knows this world's martial arts, Changming. Generally, in such a culture, there will be various types of natural materials and treasures, but it is the first time for real contact.
In fact, there are many good medicine supplements in the palace, but his martial arts route focuses on the center of the law, and Zhong Zheng is peaceful. Fang Yuan does not allow him to use these foreign objects.
Qin Nuo wants to give something to Pei Tuo. Pei Tuo waved his hand and refused. "I suffered an trauma, not Dantian's internal injury, so I don't need to waste this stuff. I'll put it away and use it when someone gets an internal injury."
Qin Nuo thought for a while, running all the way, maybe someone in the team will be injured at any time, keep it prepared.
Yan Chang reminded: "This thing cannot be near the water, once it touches the water, it will melt, and it will make ice in the water, so the boy should be careful to keep it."
Is there ice salt in the water? Qin Nuo curiously gathered the spirit stone in front of his eyes to take a closer look. He recalled that the saltpeter ore that he had seen in the fire and medicine workshops before was really similar.
It's just a higher purity, and there should be other chemical elements. Ordinary saltpeter does not have the effect of repairing internal work. What is the specific composition, go back and experiment.
However, this Tianxing Mountain is really a treasure-rich land! Getting the posterity is enough to support the economic development of a city.
With her hair tied in a high ponytail, Qin Nuo felt refreshed and returned to the camp with everyone.
Walking across the mountain road, I saw many women and children coming to the east. Many people were holding clothes in their hands. Occasionally, there are a few big girls and little daughter-in-laws who flirt at the young man in this line.
"Life in this valley seems to be more comfortable than the city outside." Yan Chang said curiously.
Qin Nuo has the same doubts, and the place is spacious and the climate is good. Why don't the Xuelie people simply station in the valley? Have to blow and freeze outside.
After a busy day, it was already dark. The valley is poorly lit and falls into darkness earlier than the outside.
Back in the camp, maybe the hot spring was too comfortable, Qin Nuo sank into dreamland almost as soon as he lay down.
In the middle of the night, he woke up and couldn't sleep any more.
Qin Nuo simply got up and got out of the camp.
Outside, Chen Changan led the two soldiers on duty at night and whispered something sitting next to the fire.
Seeing Qin Nuo coming out, he immediately got up and greeted him.
Qin Nuo waved his hand at him and laughed, "I just can't sleep, just walk around without disturbing others." It is already midnight, and it looks like the sky is dark, and it will be dawn soon.
Without letting Chen Chang'an follow, Qin Nuo was at ease along the mountain trail alone. Walking and observing all the way, the green plant planted on the ground is indeed a cold-resistant winter potato, but the leaves are cricketed, and the growing place is not good.
Qin Nuo bent down, picked up a small wooden stick, and plucked it twice on the land. It is fertile black soil. It should not be because it is too barren. Look at the two rivers crossing the valley, or because of lack of water. .
Is it because of insufficient light? However, during the daytime observation of the terrain on all sides, although the light in the valley is short, the snow and ice on the four walls reflect unexpectedly. Maybe it's because of the cloudy days these days?
Qin Nuo was preparing to walk down the river for a while, and then there was an urgent call behind him.
"Sir, stop now!"
Qin Nuo turned and looked, and it was Su Luoer's figure appeared on the hillside behind.
She shouted loudly, and found that Qin Nuo heard it, and immediately lowered her voice, "Sir, come back, you can't go in front, it is not allowed in the clan."
