Chapter 68: Impasse
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
During this time, the Barrier Ridge was extremely calm, like the depression before the storm. In Panlong Peak, the people of the White Dragon Ridge Sect united with the Mei family, and even invited several second-generation disciples of the Huayi Sword Sect into the mountain, and then stuck to the peak and did not come out. Outside Panlong Peak, the disciples of the South Gate Temple, under the leadership of Xiao Jian Venerable Ye Wuchen, also felt that the south side of the mountain peak, the Heavenly Master's Mansion and the disciples of the South Gate Temple were facing each other from afar, and both sides were eyeing the supreme treasure in the mountain peak, but none of them dared to take the lead. The delicate balance between the three forces has led to an increasingly stalemate in the situation.
Faced with such a situation, the three parties were very patient and set up camp and were ready to kill time, and the Heavenly Master's Mansion and Nanmenguan also sent people to contact the various forces in Kyoto by the way, trying to break the deadlock in one fell swoop.
In the dungeon at the bottom of an unknown mountain, Wu Ming and the others had survived three days and nights.
"It's not good to go on like this."
In the dungeon, Ling Zhou said with a low expression, "After only three days of wiping that stone statue, my cultivation has regressed by one-tenth or two, and if this continues, sooner or later we will exhaust our true yuan and become mortals." ”
Feng Jingyu and Yin Chudie nodded in response. These days, they were driven to wipe the stone statues all day during the day, and at night they were sent back to the dungeon to rest, without three meals and no grains, and their bodies were much thinner.
What's even more terrifying is that the stone statue of the Qingqiu Fox Immortal doesn't know what mystery it contains, as long as the ordinary monk touches it, the true qi in his body will be gradually swallowed by the stone statue, if it is only in contact for an hour or two, it is fine, at the end of the day, the low-level monks in the qi refining period will not be able to bear this kind of true qi consumption at all.
Wu Ming's expression was also very solemn, it stands to reason that he was a mortal who had no true qi for the stone statue to absorb, but to his surprise, the stone statue could even devour the sword intent, and in three days, almost all the sword intent raised by the white bones was swallowed up by the stone statue, and even his nameless sword intent was not spared, and it was swallowed up a lot.
"Just become a mortal and go out of the mountains?" Feng Jingyu was a little disheartened at this time.
Just a day ago, a monk who had just entered the threshold of refining qi was absorbed by the stone statue and reduced to a mortal, Yin Po immediately used the soul path technique to clear his memory, and then he really kept his promise and personally sent him out of the mountain, this move made other monks who thought they would die completely lose the mind to resist.
"What are you kidding, I finally stepped into the threshold of qi refining, and my family has been rewarded by the upper echelons of the clan because of this, now let me go back as a mortal, and the rest of the clan will definitely laugh at us in secret." Yin Chudie hugged her head and shook her head in pain. Yin Chudie was born in a local family, and has a talent for cultivation, since he was a child, he was praised by his family as a pearl in the palm of his hand, and he has developed a rather squeamish character.
"I wonder what happened to those who chose to be happy with the fox girl?" Feng Jingyu saw Yin Chudie crying sadly and tried to change the topic.
"What else, either you will die of losing the sun, or you will be confused, and you will be sent out of the mountain by that Yin Po." Ren Ji on the side pouted and said, this guy also joined everyone's discussion at some point, and at this time of life and death, no one cared about his previous grievances.
"There are also a few third-generation senior brothers." Ling Zhou reminded, "There are Senior Sister Li and Senior Brother Guan who live in the cave with me, and they should be imprisoned somewhere else. ”
After Ling Zhouyi said, Wu Ming also remembered Aunt Li Dao, that woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she shouldn't just sit still. I just don't know where these three generations of senior brothers are being held, if the two sides can meet, there is a possibility of escape.
Just as they were each looking down and thinking about how to escape, there was a familiar sound of footsteps in the dungeon, and all the imprisoned monks in the dungeon raised their heads when they heard the sound.
A slender girl walked to the cell door, unlocked it with a key, and then took out a square talisman paper from her bosom, showed it in front of everyone, and said crisply: "Who is this talisman?" ”
People didn't expect the girl to come for a small rune paper, and when everyone saw the appearance of the rune paper, they shook their heads, and a few knowledgeable people saw that this was a precious storage rune paper, and their minds turned silently. Only Wu Ming's heart was shocked, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Ask again, whose talisman it is, you can see clearly." The girl showed the talisman in her hand in front of everyone again, and said loudly, "As you can see, this is a storage talisman, and we have found herbs and anointing water in the talisman, and the person who owns this talisman should be a physician. ”
Everyone stared wide-eyed, still confused. Only Feng Jingyu and Yin Chudie were thoughtful, and secretly glanced at Wu Ming from the corner of their eyes, but their movements were not conspicuous in the crowd, so they were ignored by everyone.
Seeing that there was still no response, the girl had to explain patiently: "Please also rest assured that the owner of this talisman does not have any evil intentions, but I just hope that the master can do us a favor, and there will be heavy thanks after the matter is completed." ”
As soon as the girl said this, everyone finally understood, and the feeling was to find a doctor for medical treatment, no wonder the girl was so patient, and her tone seemed very humble.
Feng Jingyu and Yin Chudie looked at Wu Ming again.
"Yes." Wu Ming smiled bitterly and dusted off his clothes, stood up and coughed twice, "I am the owner of this talisman." ”
Wu Ming is five feet tall, and he is tall among fourteen-year-old boys, not much shorter than some adults, but standing in front of the tall fox girl, the top of his head is only to the girl's red lips, and he still looks a little short.
When the girl saw someone stand up, she wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but when she saw that it was a "short" young man with a green face who stood up, her face sank again. It's no wonder that she chooses people by age, the profession of doctors, from ancient times to the present, the older the more knowledgeable, the young doctors and the like, I have never heard of a few in the whole world.
"Are you really the owner of this talisman? Don't be greedy. The girl glared at him, her big eyes scanning him warily.
"There are two bags in the talisman, a medicine basket...... "Wu Ming said calmly, "one bag contains spare clothes, silver coins and ancient jade; A bag of prepared cinnabar paper and a soft pen. There are a total of 23 different medicinal herbs in the medicine basket, which are purple goldenrod, biluo grass, yellow vine ......"
"Alright, alright." The girl waved her hand to interrupt, and the vigilance in her eyes disappeared a lot, "At a young age, my memory is excellent." ”
"Now you believe it?" Wu Ming teased.
The girl nodded, and Lianbu moved out of the dungeon lightly: "Childe, please come with me." ”
Wu Ming immediately strode behind her, and the girl locked the cell door and led Wu Ming into the corner passage.
