Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1067 Looking for Medicine
Yang Yiyi has never been to any place with particularly harsh natural conditions. Even in southern Xinjiang, it is just not suitable for living, and there are no natural disasters.

But it’s different when you get closer to the Western Regions.

Dry sandstorms are blown south by the monsoons in spring and autumn every year. When I wake up in the morning, I find that the roof tiles are covered with sand, which seems to have buried the house.

Sometimes when a sandstorm is so severe, it can even sweep people away. It's no joke.

Originally, Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi wanted to take a walk around Luoxia Ferry to see the exotic customs that were different from the Central Plains, but when they heard what the shopkeeper said, they immediately dared not go out.

It was a coincidence that they had just opened the room when the sky outside began to change, first it was dim, then dark, and finally dark.

The strong wind blew through the door panels and windows, and the shopkeeper quickly asked the waiter to lock all the doors and windows to prevent sand from getting in.

But to be honest, the effect is not very obvious.

Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi, who were sitting in the hall planning to have a meal, felt their noses becoming more and more itchy. A strong smell of dust kept irritating their nerves. The lit oil lamps swayed left and right with the wind that came in through the cracks, making the shadows of all the people eating in the hall long and thin.

In the end, nothing could be seen except the lights. It was broad daylight, but the sandstorm blocked out the sky, making it darker than a starless night.

The locals must have gotten used to it, but people like Yang Yiyi who come to Luoxiadu for the first time will feel panic because of the drastic change in the environment. Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi also unconsciously sit closer.

The inn was still operating normally, and when the waiter brought the food, we could truly feel the harm caused by the sandstorm.

Damn, it hurts my teeth.

Every bite of steamed bun feels like there is sand in it, and the cold dishes feel like sand is used as seasoning.

It's so uncomfortable. I don't know how long this horrible weather will last.

Although the food smelled of dust and was a bit rough on the teeth, Yang Yiyi certainly couldn't waste food. She endured the discomfort and ate as much as she could.

What’s even more terrible is that at this moment someone actually knocked on the door of the inn, and the waiter went over to open it.

A strong wind suddenly swept through the lobby of the inn, and the sand and dust added to the already dusty food in front of everyone. Even though the door was closed immediately after everyone came in, the people eating in the lobby still cursed.

"Damn you! Why are you opening the door!"

The shopkeeper angrily scolded the waiter, who must have just arrived recently and probably didn't know the current situation, so he seemed a little aggrieved.

"Don't blame me, shopkeeper."

The person who came in should be a man, but the light was dim and I couldn't see clearly. I could only vaguely see him clasping his fists:

"Please don't blame me. I will pay for your meal today. The weather was bad and I came in in a hurry. I am sorry to have caused you trouble."

When they heard that someone was paying the bill, everyone's faces looked better.

The man then said to the shopkeeper:

"Excuse me, are there any guest rooms available?"

"Sir, you came at an untimely time. All the rooms have been booked. If you don't mind, you can sleep on the floor in the lobby."

After all, there was a sandstorm raging outside, and the shopkeeper couldn't kick people out.

"Thank you very much. Oh, what a horrible weather."

The man complained a few words and then said:
"Please bring me some food, I am so hungry after traveling so long."

"Okay, sir, please come in. There are seats inside."

At this time, the man followed the waiter and walked a few steps into the light range of the oil lamp, and just happened to see Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi.

"Miss Yang? Miss Wu? Why are you here?"

This person is Jiao Wenlong.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

What Yang Yiyi remembers most about Jiao Wenlong is his light skill of stepping on his right foot with his left foot to ascend to the sky. The last time they met was in Xiashan Town in southern Xinjiang, but it was only a one-time encounter. This time, she unexpectedly ran into him again in Luoxia Ferry.

Since they knew each other, Jiao Wenlong didn't go anywhere else. He said something to the waiter, ordered the food and wine again, and sat at the same table with Yang Yiyi and the others.

"I remember Miss Yang, you guys were going to Southern Xinjiang, right? Why did you suddenly go to Luoxia Ferry?"

Yang Yiyi was about to open her mouth when she suddenly remembered that helping Ning Xianer deliver the letter was a confidential matter and she couldn't talk about it casually.

She finally became more careful and swallowed the words back even though they were on the tip of her tongue.

Wu Shaoyi was afraid of being discovered, so he smiled and said:

"We two have traveled here without any particular goal. Why did Master Jiao come to Luoxia Ferry?"

Jiao Wenlong probably really didn't think much about it. After all, there were people from the underworld everywhere, so it was normal for them to go anywhere.

He answered naturally:

"I came to Luoxia Ferry to collect a medicinal herb."

Yang Yiyi then remembered that she had met Jiao Wenlong in southern Xinjiang before, and he also said that he was going to southern Xinjiang to look for medicinal herbs.

"What medicinal materials?"

"A special kind of snow lotus. Unlike most snow lotuses, it is blood-colored."

Yang Yiyi didn't know what this thing was, but when Wu Shaoyi heard it, he immediately frowned.

"Frozen Blood Lotus, this is not an easy thing to find..."

It’s not a question of whether it’s easy to find, but a question of whether it exists. It has become a legend.

According to legend, this thing is shaped like colored glaze and is light red or pink in color. It only appears in the Western Regions. It can revive the dead and turn bones into bones. All the diseases will disappear if you smell it. If you eat it, it can cure all diseases. Even if you are dying, it can extend your life by ten years.

"Master Jiao, is there anyone in your family who is seriously ill?"

Look, Yang Yiyi is still good at asking questions.

Jiao Wenlong was not annoyed and explained:
"It's my mother. Sigh, it's all my fault. My mother was always weak and sickly. She had a difficult birth and lost most of her life. Since then, her health has not improved. In recent years, it has been getting worse. I'm worried..."

This is also the reason why Jiao Wenlong is looking for medicine everywhere.

Judging from Jiao Wenlong's dress, he is definitely not from an ordinary family. He is most likely the son of a wealthy family. Even he can't find any other way and can only pin his hopes on legends. It can be seen that this disease must be particularly difficult to treat.

"Have you been to Taohuawu? The doctors there are amazing."

Yang Yiyi was still recommending it. Jiao Wenlong shook his head when he heard it.

"I have already consulted a doctor from Taohuawu. He said my mother only has three years to live. As for what will happen after three years, he said it depends on fate."

"..."

Jiao Wenlong went to the Young Heroes Association just on the way. He originally went to Leishanzang first to see if there was any magic medicine that could save his mother. When that failed, he ran to Taohuawu to ask for a doctor.

After that, he immediately went south to southern Xinjiang and found many precious medicinal herbs, but still could not save the patient.

I have thought of every possible way, and tried everything I could think of, but I am at my wit's end. So I can only turn to the legendary magical medicine, the Frozen Blood Lotus, for help.

Yang Yiyi was also somewhat moved by Jiao Wenlong's filial piety, and patted her chest and said:
"Don't worry, Master Jiao. As long as this Frozen Blood Lotus really exists, I will definitely lend you a helping hand."

She even thought about going back to ask Li Chengxi, maybe the immortal had a way to prolong people's lives.

——This girl is really honest.
