46. Holy Maiden
"You also used that medicine?" Yin Li's expression was also very surprised, she was born in the Yin family of Xuantian Prefecture, and the most common evil way she saw was medicine. Compared to other disciples who had never descended the mountain, she was much more alert to these situations.
Probably because the fool-like expression in Yin Li's eyes was too obvious, and the psychology of several people suddenly chuckled. Luo Nianjin shook his head: "I have a hundred herb sachets given by my master, which can drive away all kinds of diseases, so I didn't drink that medicine at that time." Senior Sister Yin, do you think those people have a problem? β
"But those Black Heaven Sect disciples have been doing good deeds, and the surrounding residents are also very grateful to them, they should ...... There won't be any problems, right? Although he said this, the male disciple of Canglong Peak was also a little uncertain in his heart, so much so that he paused for a moment when he said the last sentence.
Yin Li shook his head: "I don't know if they have a problem, but I know that when I go out, I don't have to be more careful than in the Taihua Immortal Sect." Besides, we have Senior Brother Baizhu of Bailongfeng in our team this time, he is a personal disciple of Elder Xuangu, if we really want to prevent the plague, we should also look for him, why bother to touch the medicine given by those people? β
"Senior sister, you're not right." Lin Chuxia, who was still a little worried in his heart, turned his whole expression cold when he heard Yin Li mention Baizhu. Even the smile on his lips could not have become more false: "If this plague had been cured by White Dragon Peak, it would not have sent us over." Moreover, atractylodes ...... Hmph, senior sister can't help but think too highly of him. Besides, we watched the residents get better after drinking the medicine, so we took a little medicine as a precaution. Even if there is really something wrong with that medicine, we all have cultivation in our bodies, and there is nothing to worry about. β
Seeing her sabre-rattling like this, Yin Li couldn't say anything more, and the atmosphere became awkward for a while.
"Then please ask Miss Lin to remember this sentence well, if there is any problem, don't come to me." I don't know when, Baizhu was standing not far away, and said with a cold face.
Lin Chuxia said disdainfully: "That's natural, with your level, I don't dare to put my life in your hands." β
After that, Lin Chuxia flicked her sleeves and turned around with a few people who were surrounded by her and went back to their rooms. Luo Nianjin seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of enough reasons, so he hesitated in place for a while, and finally went back to his room.
Seeing that the five people were gone, Gu Ziyan stood up slowly at this time.
Looking at the table of sumptuous dishes in front of Gu Ziyan, Bai Zhu's face, which was still cold just now, eased a lot: "You will enjoy it, unlike me, even if you are not present, you will be pulled out and ridiculed." β
"You didn't see it, I've been ridiculed by someone else before." Gu Ziyan stretched out his finger and pointed at Luo Nianjin, who had just left, "I thought I didn't have any grudges against her, but I was always scolded inexplicably." β
The corners of Baizhu's mouth curled: "Who told you that you are the only disciple of Qianhan Peak?" In this position, you should always give something. β
Gu Ziyan shrugged his shoulders and didn't seem to care: "Let's not talk about this for now, I think we have to go outside the city again now." β
"I think so too, although the five of them have been out for more than a day, they haven't found much information." Baizhu said, "I don't even think that they have been deceived? After all, the situation they described was very different from what we had seen before. That group of so-called Black Heaven Sect members did not appear sooner or later, but they came out when the plague was at its strictest and all parties had nothing to do. And they were able to come up with effective drugs in a short period of time, which made me have to wonder if they were ......"
"The medicine was prepared a long time ago." Yin Bei, who had been following Yin Li silently, suddenly said slowly.
Gu Ziyan nodded: "I was about to sue you, the ghost who came to Sufu to take revenge before, sued me for something." It has a lot to do with the Black Heaven Sect and this plague. Not only was the medicine prepared in advance, I suspect that this plague was deliberately created by them. β
Next, Gu Ziyan relayed the memories that Su Yao showed him at that time to the other three.
"This Black Heaven Sect is so cruel, and the Black Heaven Sect they said was distributing medicines and providing relief to the victims, it was a world of difference!" After listening to these memories, Yin Li was not lightly angry, and his beautiful face turned red, "If I didn't know in advance, I would have been deceived by them." β
"I've been planning since ten years ago, and the ambition of the Black Sky Sect is really not small." Baizhu said.
"By the way, then a few of them drank the medicine taught by the black clothes......" Yin Li suddenly remembered this, and stretched out his hand to Lin Chuxia's room.
"Even if I knew there was something wrong with the medicine, I wouldn't be able to solve it. The best thing to do now is to explore the details of the Black Heaven Sect, and if you are lucky, you may even be able to find an antidote. Bai Shu turned the green jade flute in his hand, to be honest, even if he could unlock it, he didn't want to give Lin Chuxia an antidote.
Gu Ziyan laughed lightly: "Besides, even if you sue them now, they won't believe it at all." Why don't you let them stay here and see the situation first, it's really not good, isn't there still my master? Nothing will happen. β
"It's also ......" was reminded by Gu Ziyan like this, Yin Li also remembered that there was still Mo Yi sitting here, and immediately felt a lot more relieved, "Then let's go outside the city and have a look!" β
Several people glanced at each other, nodded, and according to the position given on the scroll earlier, they headed out of the city.
In order to prevent the plague from spreading into the city, a checkpoint had already been set up a few miles outside the city to stop the nearby homeless people from entering. As a result, the residents who were displaced from the neighborhood could only stay in the vicinity of the villages and towns for a long time, and even the nearby villages and towns were infected with the plague. In this way, Biluo City is still no different from the past, but after walking a few miles outside, the scene seen is very miserable.
The bodies of the deceased can be seen everywhere, most of them are wrapped in straw mats, and the straw mats neatly placed in one place make people feel a little chill in their backs when they look at them. But this kind of scene is much better than half a month ago, Gu Ziyan saw at a glance that there was a person dressed in black and wearing a black veil, who was taking a few men dressed as villagers, and burned the corpse in front of him. Gu Ziyan stepped forward: "Excuse me, is this the ...... of the Black Sky Sect?" β
The man in black threw the torch in his hand onto the already burning corpse, looked at Gu Ziyan for a while, and then nodded: "Do you have anything to do?" The plague is raging around here, and everyone else is running out, why are you still running this way? β
"To tell you the truth, we are from Biluo City." Gu Ziyan lowered his voice when he said this, and said with a set of rhetoric that he had thought of a long time ago, "Recently, someone in the family accidentally got sick, and it looks like he was infected with the plague...... Because the city ordered that those who were infected should not stay, we did not dare to speak out. I've heard that your faction has a miracle medicine that can cure the plague, so we took the plunge here. β
"You want holy water?" The man in black rolled his eyes, "Holy water can't be given to people casually, if you want, follow me to see the Holy Maiden." If you can be forgiven by the gods, the Holy Maiden will naturally give you medicine. β
All the qiΔ went very smoothly, and Gu Ziyan pretended to be grateful: "Then it's troublesome to lead the way." β
The man in black was obviously very grateful to Gu Ziyan, and he instructed the villagers around him to wait until the corpse was burned before leaving. Then he took Gu Ziyan and his party along a small road to a larger village nearby. Because of the plague that raged before, only half of the living people were left in the village, and it seemed a little empty.
There are many makeshift tents in the village, and there are a large number of people in black dressed in the same clothes near these tents, which should be the temporary stronghold of the Black Sky Sect.
Led to the largest tent of the bunch, the man in black signaled that the place had arrived. Before Gu Ziyan could ask anything, a woman's voice came from the tent: "Guests from Biluo City, please bring your companions in." β
Gu Ziyan glanced at Baizhu and walked into the tent.
Although it is a temporary tent, the things inside are not simple at all, and there are even a lot of gilded utensils, showing the unusual identity of the people living in this tent. A woman in a black veil sits on a high seat, and she has a pair of sparkling eyes, which make people feel very gorgeous when they look at it, as if they will be hooked if they are not careful.
But Gu Ziyan looked at these eyes, but there was only anger in his heart.
This woman is none other than the pretty woman who tied Su Yao's family into the barren valley back then. Seeing her cruel and vicious methods, Gu Ziyan couldn't help but clench his right hand, if he didn't have something else to ask, he really wanted to cut her directly with a sword.
"Guests of Biluo City...... No, Dao Masters of the Taihua Immortal Sect, I don't know what you have to do with me? I don't think you really want the holy water from the gods, do you? The pretty woman of the past, the black-clothed saint of today, smiled, and her voice was as seductive as her eyes, "You must want to ask, how do I know that you are from the Taihua Immortal Sect?" Quite simply, your companions have already been here yesterday, and they are such naΓ―ve children. Before my men could ask, they couldn't wait to report themselves. β
Gu Ziyan shouted in his heart, are those people professional sellers?
Baizhu turned around vigilantly, reached out to probe the door where they came in, and said in a deep voice: "There is a layer of enchantment outside, and we can't get out for the time being." β
"Not temporarily." The saint laughed again, and she stood up gracefully, and a bottle of transparent liquid appeared in her hand. "Since you're here, why don't you drink this holy water from the gods and become one of us?"
"No need." As Gu Ziyan spoke, he reached out and touched the handle of the umbrella of Xinghe behind him, "I'm not interested in places like yours." β
With the system, he could clearly see that this holy woman had the cultivation of the fifth layer of Jindan, which was definitely a very high cultivation for Cangtianzhou, where the aura was thin. According to the general situation, if a Jindan fifth-layer monk wants to suppress Gu Ziyan, the four people in the foundation building period, it is definitely something that can be done, which is why the saint is so unscrupulous.
But Gu Ziyan was not worried at all, although his current cultivation had only reached the seventh layer of the foundation, he still had two soul jades on his body. With just one one, he was enough to fight against this holy woman, not to mention that he still had immortal-level magic weapons such as the Chixiao Red Lotus and the Galaxy Umbrella in his hands.
"Don't talk too soon." The smile on the saint's face did not change, she approached Gu Ziyan step by step, and saw Gu Ziyan standing motionless, believing that her Jindan stage cultivation had suppressed him, so she became even more unscrupulous. Even she stroked Gu Ziyan's cheek with her fingertips: "Xiaodao Chang's face is really handsome, I can't bear to do it." β
"You can't bear it, but I can't bear it." As soon as Gu Ziyan turned his head, the Red Lotus of Chixiao had already appeared in his hand, carrying the fierce streamer, and stabbed towards the chest of the saint without mercy.
