On the way back, Lin Ning had been silent, and just now he learned from the palm door that Li Mingheng and Nangong Wen Jian had disappeared at the same time since the incident in Black Heart Mountain, and as for whether it had fallen, the answer given by the head was no, and the tone was sonorous and powerful, and it was conclusive, as if he had seen it with his own eyes in this matter.

If this is the case, there is something strange in it, with Li Mingheng's cultivation not going out of the Black Heart Mountain within three months, I am afraid that he has already died and disappeared, why is the answer of the head so categorical?

Although there were many doubts in his heart, he was very wise not to ask more, but from what the head of the family said that Li Mingheng had not fallen, he was already very happy, and his heart was more or less settled.

Yes, when approaching the foothills of Qingfeng Vein, Zeng Yue, who was walking with him, suddenly stopped, and saw that his face was slightly gloomy, but he said slowly: "Okay, don't think about it so much, hurry up and find a piece of mountain and water treasure land, settle down, and then say, by the way, the old man has some small things here that are very beneficial to your retreat, and then." ”

Zeng Yue smiled pleasantly, flipped his hand around, and saw two things, a futon for meditation and a palm-sized sandalwood tripod.

Without waiting for Lin Ning to say anything, he threw it directly to the other party, and said: "Gathering Qi Pu, there is a small gathering spirit array, which is very useful for people who meditate and practice, this sandalwood tripod is blessed with spirit stones, and its incense has the effect of calming the mind and reassuring the mind, for long-term retreat, the benefits of ascetics are even more, after a long time, even the killing anger can be dissipated, now you have just built a foundation, there are no utensils to assist, these things are not worth a few dollars, take it and use it." ”

Lin Ning pinched the futon and Xiaoding, but he didn't know what to say for a while, but there was a faint warmth in his heart, and he was deeply affected for a long time, "Senior Brother Zeng, boy, I have never done you any good, but you have helped me again and again. ”

These words were his heartfelt words, but Zeng Yue waved his hand, "Okay, the old man will accompany you here today, if you have free time in the future, come to the medicine garden to accompany me, the old man, to drink tea, and set up chess games." ”

After saying that, he took the first step and walked in the direction of the outer courtyard.

Lin Ning looked at his back, and suddenly read a sense of indifference, but under that detachment and indifference, there was a deep loneliness.

The two things in his hand came with a cold and gentle feeling, the aura was dim, but there was a hidden Rui Qi, he stroked it, and his heart was full of emotions for a while, maybe these two things were really as he said, they were not worth anything, they were nothing compared to those magic weapons, but this intention made Lin Ning feel warm and sour.

The back gradually faded away, and finally disappeared into a small dot, but Lin Ning bent deeply again in that direction, and said lightly: "Thank you." ”

After the words fell, he turned around and went straight to Nanlong Peak.

Nanlong Peak is where Nangong Wenjian's private cave house is, the peak cumulus clouds, the lofty pavilion is majestic, standing in the distance, you can see several courtyards and Zen rooms together, the mountains and trees are lush, verdant and dripping.

Going up the mountain, there are nine stone steps, Lin Ning walked step by step, when he just arrived at the courtyard gate, he saw a young girl sitting on the stone steps at a high place, with green clothes and waist, braided hair like willows, white skin like snow, eyes like stars and moons, and extremely pretty.

At this moment, she held her chin with both hands and a weed in her mouth, but she kept looking up at the sky.

The light is warm, the sun is shining, and the girl's clear and bright eyes show a three-point confusion, and her mouth still keeps muttering: "Why haven't you come back?" How long has it been? Didn't anyone come to see me? It's so boring here, and no one comes to accompany me......"

The more the girl spoke, the more disappointed she became, until at last her voice grew quieter, but her eyes were already full of ......

Lin Ning's heart ached, and he called softly, "Senior Sister Lian'er, Lin Ning is back." He walked up to Nangong Lian, squatted down slightly, and held her hand that was as cold as jade.

Nangong Lian slowly lowered her head, looking at the man in front of her, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes were disheveled, but she felt very familiar, she wiped away her tears and asked in a low voice, "Are you Lin Ning?" ”

"Yes."

"Really?"

"It really is."

After a few words, Nangong Lian's body suddenly trembled, shaking like a sieve, she couldn't stop it, she stretched out her hand and kept stroking the other party's face, and the more she touched it, the more tears flowed, she nodded again and again, and said with a tearful smile: "It's you, it's really you, you're back, you're finally back,"

Eight years of longing, in this quiet moment, turned into tears, flowing down, she threw herself into Lin Ning's arms, crying silently but kept beating with her hands: "Lin Ning, you dare to make my senior sister wait so long, I want to tell my father, I want my father to punish you ......"

Lin Ning gently patted the back of Nangong Lian, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain in his arms, his heart was painful, but he could only sigh helplessly, suddenly he glanced at it, and saw that Nangong Lian actually had a cyan bruise on his left hand, his eyes sank, and he quickly pulled the other party's wrist and lifted his sleeve up.

Suddenly, seeing that the whole arm was blue and red, and the blood had not been removed, he was in a hurry, and swept it with his divine sense, and found that the meridians around Nangong Lian's body were blocked, and the dantian was dead and silent, and only a little spiritual power was still lingering.

"Qi refining is ninefold, the spiritual power is dissipating, and the cultivation is still declining? What's going on? Didn't it mean that the residual poison in her body had been completely eliminated by the old man who was clear? ”

At this time, a sneer suddenly sounded in Lin Ning's mind, "Hmph, didn't you notice that her bruises were all caused by a blockage of spiritual power?" According to the deity, I'm afraid that someone has secretly poisoned me before. ”

"Monsoon?" At this moment, Lin Ning's eyes were blood-red, and the uncontrollable anger almost overwhelmed his reason, he took a hard breath and asked with a gloomy face: "Master, can this injury be treated?" ”

"The meridians are blocked, and it is due to spiritual power, it is not a big deal, but this female dantian is dead and silent, and the deity doubts whether the residual poison you are talking about is one of the ghost poisons of the nine poisons in the world, if it is true, then it will be troublesome." Qi Qi thought for a while, and then said: "The ghost poison comes and goes without a trace, as long as it enters the spiritual vein, there is no complete expulsion, this poison is mixed into the human body, if it is a demon cultivation, it is okay, you can abolish a body of cultivation and start over, but if it is a Taoist cultivation, this poison is lurking inside, even the Yuanying monk may not be able to find out if he investigates, and it will completely eat away the spiritual power and spiritual root of this person little by little, and finally leave an empty shell, this poison is extremely cruel and cruel, and the person who uses this poison is extremely disdainful of the deity." ”

The more Lin Ning listened, the colder his heart became, and he asked anxiously: "Master, is there any way to solve this poison?" ”

"Yes, but even if you tell you, if you rush forward, you will only be sent to death." Qi Qi snorted angrily and scolded: "You kid calm down, isn't it just a girl." ”

"I have to save this person, Master, tell me quickly, is that thing a nine-song spirit ginseng?"

Seeing his eagerness, Qi Qi didn't want to answer, but he was afraid that his brain would be hot and he would do something stupid, so he had to say impatiently: "Although Jiuqu Spirit Ginseng is okay, but this world has long been gone, in the early years, the deity heard that the Heavenly Demon Sect had a spirit pill, called the Heavenly Poison Pill, as long as you can get this pill, no matter how powerful the poison can be, it can be resolved." ”

"Heavenly Demon Sect?" Lin Ning suddenly realized, he suddenly understood why Nangong Wen Jian had not returned for eight years, he pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Master, how long can she hold on?" ”

"Hehe, fortunately, someone sealed the bloodline for her early, although the poison entered the body, but her life is worry-free for the time being, but her cultivation will drop little by little, until she becomes a mortal, as for how long it can last, it depends on her own creation."

Hearing this, Lin Ning stood up, his eyes were resolute, Nangong Lian looked at him inexplicably, "Senior sister, no matter how long it takes, I will definitely cure you, and I will make that bastard of Ji Feng pay for it." ”
