Chapter 308 It's about forcing things.
Then they discovered a plant growing on a mountaintop not far from here, with small purple flowers.
The flower was exceptionally small, and only because of his good eyesight could he see it clearly from such a distance; most people probably wouldn't have noticed it.
"Youyou, what kind of medicine is that?" Sensing Fang Qingyou's excitement, Luo Qianmo couldn't help but ask.
"I think that looks like Seven Star Purple Ginseng!" Fang Qingyou felt her voice trembling. She was so excited that she didn't feel uncomfortable at all when Luo Qianmo called her Youyou.
Seven-Star Purple Ginseng, that's a legendary divine medicine.
"Seven-Star Purple Ginseng?!" Luo Qianmo murmured, unfamiliar with the medicinal herb, but judging from Fang Qingyou's tone, it seemed to be very rare.
"Yes, it's said that Seven-Star Purple Ginseng is born from the accumulation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and can prolong life, maintain youth forever, and even have the effect of bringing the dead back to life. I had only seen descriptions of it in ancient books before, I never expected that such a medicinal herb actually existed in the world," Fang Qingyou said excitedly.
"So that's how it is." Luo Qianmo's eyes showed a slight shock, but that was all. He thought that Seven Star Purple Ginseng was indeed a very rare and precious medicine, but it would not have the effect of maintaining youth or bringing the dead back to life.
These are just rumors, after all.
Besides, does such a miraculous thing really exist in the world?
Fang Qingyou didn't respond to Luo Qianmo again. She got up and jogged towards the Seven Star Purple Ginseng, wanting to see if she could step on it.
Once she stood at the edge of the mountaintop, a look of disappointment appeared in Fang Qingyou's eyes.
This Seven Star Purple Ginseng is probably something she can see but not have. She can see it growing there all alone, beckoning to her, but there is a three-meter-wide distance between them.
Looking down, one sees a cliff shrouded in mist, making it impossible to determine its depth.
Perhaps the downward distance is only a few meters high, or perhaps it is a deep cliff.
If it were a bottomless cliff, one wrong step and one would fall to one's death.
Looking at the thick, almost tangible fog below, Fang Qingyou frowned and decided to give up on the Seven Star Purple Ginseng.
They just lacked a bit of fate.
However, Fang Qingyou did not give up completely. She would ask Prefect Wang again when she got back today to see where she could get to the mountain range where the Seven Star Purple Ginseng was located.
If she can climb the mountain and reach the summit, wouldn't she be able to find the Seven Star Purple Ginseng?
Having made up her mind, Fang Qingyou began to look around, trying to memorize the surrounding scenery so that she could describe it to Prefect Wang later.
"Youyou, do you want to pick this Seven Star Purple Ginseng?" Luo Qianmo asked, watching the joy in Fang Qingyou's eyes turn into disappointment, and then into anticipation.
In fact, he already knew the answer when he asked that question.
Today, as they walked up the mountain, Fang Qingyou didn't miss a single medicinal herb they encountered.
These plants, which seemed ordinary to him, always made her eyes light up, as if what she saw before her was not a plant, but a priceless treasure.
Those medicinal herbs were so ordinary, yet they made her so happy.
Now that she has obtained this rare Seven Star Purple Ginseng, how could she possibly let it slip by?
"Mmm." Fang Qingyou nodded unconsciously. She naturally didn't want to miss out on such a rare and precious medicine.
"Then I'll take you there."
"Huh? What?" Fang Qingyou was stunned for a moment, not realizing where Luo Qianmo was taking her.
"I'll take you there to pick that Seven Star Purple Ginseng."
"Huh?" Fang Qingyou suddenly turned her head and quickly shook her head to dissuade him: "Eighth Prince, you don't need to take me. I'll go back today and ask Prefect Wang about the situation in that mountain area. It's not too late to come and pick the fruit tomorrow."
Fang Qingyou dared not let Luo Qianmo take any risks. Although she knew he was highly skilled in martial arts, he was injured after all. If anything happened to him, she would be the culprit.
Last time, he was seriously injured because of her; this time, she absolutely could not let him risk his life because of her.
Last time, she felt incredibly guilty. If it happened again, she really didn't know if she would feel so guilty that she would offer herself in return.
This result is terrifying.
Seeing Fang Qingyou's hasty refusal, Luo Qianmo's voice remained indifferent: "Youyou, are you going to wait until tomorrow? Aren't you afraid that this Seven Star Purple Ginseng will be picked by someone else today?"
Those simple, understated words struck Fang Qingyou's heart like a hammer blow.
Waaah, Luo Qianmo, could you please stop scaring her? Although she didn't want to admit it, it was indeed a possibility.
He shouldn't have said anything, because once he did, she felt that this might be the last time she would see the Seven Star Purple Ginseng.
The moment she turns around, it will say goodbye to her and become someone else's possession.
The sorrow in Fang Qingyou's eyes softened Luo Qianmo's lips.
He knew he shouldn't be laughing at this moment, but the gentleness in his heart made it impossible for his smile to harden.
Her pitiful appearance really makes you want to hold her in your arms and comfort her.
Despite her reluctance, Fang Qingyou shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid."
As she spoke, Fang Qingyou tried her best to turn her head away so that she would no longer see the Seven Star Purple Ginseng.
"Eighth Prince, let's go. If this Seven Star Purple Ginseng is gone by tomorrow, it proves that we are not meant to be, so why should I force it?"
Thinking about it this way, Fang Qingyou felt slightly relieved.
The discovery of these legendary divine medicines is governed by the laws of heaven and earth. If she is destined not to obtain them, then even if she sees them, she still cannot possess them.
Although there is still resentment, it is indeed something that cannot be forced.
In that instant, Luo Qianmo's eyes, which had been full of tenderness, suddenly darkened.
If there's no fate between us, why force it?
He knew Fang Qingyou was referring to the Seven Star Purple Ginseng, but for some reason, he thought of him and her.
This woman always says they are not from the same world, and always uses all sorts of reasons to resist his feelings.
Ultimately, it boils down to what she called being destined to be apart.
So what if she's convinced they're not meant to be? He's determined to force it!
The woman he has chosen can only be his woman!
In that instant, a chilling aura suddenly emanated from Luo Qianmo, making Fang Qingyou feel as if the temperature around her had dropped several degrees.
When Fang Qingyou looked up in confusion, she was met with a pair of deep, dark eyes as cold as frost, as if she could see into an endless abyss.
"Eighth Prince, you..." Fang Qingyou really didn't understand how Luo Qianmo had suddenly become like this.
