Chapter 94: The demons broke out
Inside, Zhao Zheng was staying in the fully enclosed practice room at this time, consolidating the Canglong swordsmanship he had just learned. I saw him rushing forward and backward in the room, rising and falling, his body was as fast as lightning, and one move caused a burst of dragon roars. He had been practicing in this room for half a day, and he had hardly stopped during this period, and under the heavy exertion, dripping hot sweat appeared on his forehead. Sweat spilled on the ground, leaving shallow marks.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting his practice. If there is no major matter, the people in the courtyard will never come to disturb his practice, and since someone knocks on the door, there must be something important.
Zhao Zheng stopped, gathered his moves, grabbed a table not far away, grabbed the cotton cloth placed on the table in his hand, and wiped his sweat.
"What's the matter?" He put down the wet cotton cloth and asked easily.
"Zhao Gongzi, tourists are visiting, and the Yutang of Leng Xiangju will see you." Ren Qianqiu, who was outside the door, replied in a rough voice.
"Okay, I'll come right over." Zhao Zheng was stunned for a moment, slightly surprised. Although he was already familiar with Yu Ling'er, the latter rarely came back to him.
With some doubts, Zhao Zheng opened the door of the practice room, and under Ren Qianqiu's explanation, he went to the living room of Chaoyangju.
In the living room, Yu Ling'er sat on a chair and was drinking hot tea.
After Zhao Zheng came in, he and Yu Ling'er saw each other, said hello, and then found a chair to sit down.
"You've always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, this time you came over, there must be something, right?" Zhao Zheng asked bluntly.
"It's not a big deal for me to come this time, I just want to talk to you about eradicating Uncle Zhi's demons." Yu Ling'er replied lightly.
"So you're here for this." Zhao Zheng said suddenly.
"Have you been following any of these lately?"
"This matter concerns me, and of course I have to pay attention. I heard that in the past few days. Master Xuanming, Liao Sanzhen, and many famous doctors all failed. No one has been able to eradicate Uncle Zhi's demons. On the contrary, it made Uncle Zhi miserable. Since I was in the front of the day of the demon slaying conference, the head of the house asked me if I wanted to do it a few days ago, but I didn't agree, but postponed the date to three days later. That day was the day when Uncle Zhi killed his younger brother by mistake, and on that day every year, he would have a demon in his heart. I'll be a little more sure when I do it that day. ”
"Listening to your tone on the day of the Demon Eradication Conference, it seems that you are extremely confident in this matter."
"Huh. Don't mention it, just because I was too confident and full of words, I became the target of public criticism, and I was robbed by Liao Sanpin. ”
"Can you tell me what your so-called family secret recipe is?" Yu Ling'er hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously. She is a drug addict, and she is very concerned about this matter, and I am afraid that this question has been held in her heart for several days.
"This ......" Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly, he could see it. Yu Ling'er didn't think of that kind of Meng Po soup, otherwise. I won't be running to ask this question anymore. This is not surprising, if it is not known in advance, it is difficult for anyone to associate the medicinal effects of Meng Po soup with the inner demons.
Seeing that Zhao Zheng wanted to speak and stopped, Yu Ling'er bit her lip slightly, and said with interest: "I'm just asking casually, if it's not convenient to tell, I won't be strong." ”
"It's really inconvenient to say it now, it's better to do this, wait until this matter is over, and then I'll tell you this family secret medicine, how about it?" Zhao Zheng thought for a moment and asked with a smile.
"Okay, that's it." Yu Ling'er's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this, and she agreed immediately, looking very excited.
Zhao Zheng smiled dumbly, and when Yu Ling'er knew that the so-called family secret medicine was the Meng Po soup, she didn't know what kind of expression it would be.
Yu Ling'er came here this time, mainly to ask about this matter, and after chatting, she left early and did not stay here for a long time.
After sending Yu Ling'er away, Chaoyangju did not welcome any special guests in the next few days, and Zhao Zheng also followed for a few days of rare stops.
Three days later, it finally ushered in the day when Zhicanghai's heart demon broke out, and today will be a very special day for Zhicanghai, and the same is true for Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng took the Meng Po soup that had been prepared a long time ago, put it in a thick porcelain bottle, and set off for a large hall on top of the Jade Emperor. That hall is the place chosen by the head of Jintai, the hall itself is old, even if it is broken, there is no need to feel distressed, and it is suitable to be used as a place to suppress the demons in the heart of Zhicanghai.
Zhi Canghai is a tenfold heavenly martial artist, and after the heart demon explodes, he will become extremely crazy, and even his strength will be slightly improved, which should not be underestimated. Just in case, many masters in the Taishan faction, as well as Master Xuanming, all arrived in the hall and were ready to stabilize the Zhicang Sea. In addition, several famous doctors, including Liao Sanzhen, also arrived, wanting to see with their own eyes the scene when the Zhicang Sea Heart Demon broke out.
As soon as Zhao Zheng walked into the hall, all the people in the hall focused their eyes on him, and these eyes had different emotions, including indifference, expectation, and sarcasm. Among them, the sneering gazes were all projected by those famous doctors, and Liao Sanzhen's eyes were the most obvious.
"Doctor Zhao, you've finally come over, but I've had to wait so hard. Ever since the end of the Demon Eradication Conference, I've been looking forward to seeing your so-called family recipe, but you've been reluctant to do it. You've been putting it off for so many days, it's time to take out your mysterious family recipe, right? Liao Sanzhen squinted at Zhao Zheng who walked in step by step, and chuckled. He kept calling Zhao Zheng a miracle doctor, clearly praising and derogating, and the meaning of ridicule was self-evident.
Zhao Zheng frowned slightly, endured the unhappiness in his heart, and replied: "Yes, I have brought the family heirloom secret recipe today, as long as Uncle Zhi's heart demon explodes, he can take this medicinal soup for him." After he drank the medicinal soup, the inner demon would naturally disappear with it. ”
"Okay, I want to see what kind of miraculous effect your so-called family secret recipe has, which can actually cure the disease and directly eradicate the demons in your heart. If the decoction you refined is really so powerful, I am willing to bow down and take you as a teacher. Liao San's words were prickly. still looks contemptuous of Zhao Zheng.
"You don't have to take me as a teacher. I have no plans to take in apprentices. Zhao Zheng shot back lightly. Then he ignored Liao Sanzhen and walked straight to the front. He walked all the way to the head of the house, bowed down, and then saluted the other elders, not daring to lose his courtesy.
After the ceremony, the head of Jintai asked, "Zhao Zheng, did you bring that kind of family heirloom secret recipe?" ”
"Brought, this is the family secret recipe." Zhao Zheng responded. He took off the white porcelain vase hanging from his waist, presented it with both hands, and handed it to the master.
Jin Tai lifted the lid of the white porcelain vase and looked inside, only to find that the bottle was full of brown liquid, and a little brown fluorescence was wafting from it. Seeing such a strange scene made Jin Tai a little more confident in this so-called secret recipe. It can be clearly seen that this medicinal soup is indeed extraordinary, and it is not an ordinary decoction.
"Master, the use of this decoction is very simple. Just drink it for Uncle Zhi when his demons erupt. When Uncle Zhi's heart demon breaks out, it will inevitably be difficult to control. When the time comes, it will be up to the head and the seniors to figure out a way. Zhao Zheng explained.
"Okay, I'll take this bottle of medicinal soup for Zhi Canghai." Jin Tai nodded.
Zhao Zheng handed over the medicinal soup, so there was nothing to do with him, so he obediently stepped aside and watched the changes.
"Zhi Canghai, do you want to wait until the heart demon explodes before drinking this decoction, or do you take the initiative to urge the heart demon to explode?" The head of Jin Tai asked the figure sitting in the middle of the main hall.
At this time, Zhi Canghai sat on the ground, closed his eyes tightly, and waited for the demons to break out. Many masters surrounded him, nervously waiting for that moment to come.
Hearing the master's question, Zhi Canghai groaned slightly, and finally shook his head and said: "Forgive the master, I have frequent outbreaks of demons these days, and I am really a little exhausted, if I am not in a hurry, I should wait for the demons to explode by themselves, I don't want to take the initiative to urge the demons to break out and ask for hardship." ”
"Well, since that's the case, don't force you, just wait silently for the demon to explode by itself." Jin Tai immediately agreed, and did not reluctantly Zhi Canghai.
Whether it is actively urging the heart demon to explode, or waiting for the heart demon to show his head, the result is the same. Next, it's time to wait for the demon to appear on its own. The hall fell silent suddenly, and no one spoke anymore, waiting for the moment to come.
Because everyone came very early, the sky was not yet dawn, and the candlelight in the hall was flickering, shining on everyone's faces, and the night outside the hall was deep, and there was the sound of the wind.
Time passed by a trickle, and everyone waited in the hall for a long time, but they didn't see any change in Zhicanghai. Some people can't help but secretly speculate, doubting that Zhicanghai will not cause any more demons today, which is not impossible. However, this idea was finally broken, and at the moment when the sun and the moon were at handover, Zhi Canghai, who had not moved for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth and muttered in a low voice, as if in a dream.
"Brother, I'm sorry...... I was too heavy and killed you...... You don't blame me, don't blame me......"
Zhi Canghai muttered to himself, his voice was very soft, short and short.
"The demons in Zhicanghai's heart are about to explode, everyone be careful." Kim Tae-tae raised his vigilance for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face showed a solemn expression. He turned his head to look at Master Xuanming beside him, and admonished, "Master Xuanming, I hope you can help, use your Buddha Light Town clutches to suppress Zhicanghai, and then I will pour this decoction for him." ”
"Don't worry, Master Jin, this matter is on the poor monk." Xuan Ming clasped his hands together and promised.
"Thank you, Master, for your help." Kim Tae thanked him, and then refocused his attention on Zhi Canghai, who had given birth to an abnormal appearance.
Even the head of Jintai was so nervous, not to mention the others, all the people in the hall became nervous all of a sudden, and all eyes were focused on Zhi Canghai's body alone, as if they were glued to it.
Facing so many eyes around him, Zhi Canghai was still babbling as if no one was around, and his voice was getting louder and faster. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and the sweat slid down and fell onto his clothes. His face and the skin on his palms also showed a strange blood color.
"Amitabha." Master Xuanming recited the Buddha's name, his compassionate brows furrowed slightly, and he was ready to shoot at any time.
It didn't take long for Zhi Canghai's heart demon to finally be suppressed anymore and completely erupted from his body. He raised his head to the sky and roared, and suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a red fierce light flashing under his eyes, and green tendons rose from his skin like a crawling angry dragon. All over the body. A majestic fluctuation of internal forces. It spreads out from his body. Swept the entire hall.
"Master, do it!" The head of Jin Tai let out a loud shout, stood up, and tightly grasped the white porcelain bottle containing Meng Po soup with one hand.
Master Xuanming didn't answer again, and responded directly with actions. I saw him slap out with a palm, and a Buddha statue appeared behind him, and the momentum of the Buddha statue came out with him, and the flesh palm and the Buddha palm were integrated. An even larger golden palm phantom burst out.
The palm phantom is hitting the body of Zhi Canghai, who is on the verge of going berserk, and grasps it firmly. Zhi Canghai struggled violently, inspiring a more fierce and powerful internal force, and fiercely impacted the palm phantom clasped on his body, but no matter how he struggled, the palm phantom was unmoved, and it appeared extremely firm. Imprisoning a tenfold heavenly martial artist who is in a rampage, only a martial artist above the eleventh heavens can do it in this world.
Jin Tai seized this golden opportunity to transport the inexhaustible internal force in the dantian and protect the whole body with internal force. Rushed headlong towards the golden palm phantom. He rushed into the shadow, raised his hand and tapped it on Zhi Canghai's chest. Suppress multiple acupuncture points.
Zhi Canghai was under the double pressure of the phantom shadow of his palm and the acupoints, and his body suddenly became stiff, like a clay sculpture, standing motionless.
Jin Tai used internal force to protect the porcelain bottle in his hand, aimed the mouth of the bottle at Zhi Canghai's mouth, and fell down without saying a word. The medicinal soup in the bottle quickly flowed down his throat and into Zhi Canghai's stomach, playing a role in it. Jin Tai took back the empty porcelain vase, raised his palm and pressed it on Zhi Canghai's stomach, urging the internal force in his palm to pour it under his skin. The internal force surges, and the hot air rises, which accelerates the vaporization of the decoction and dissipates the medicinal power.
Zhi Canghai was motionless on the surface, but his body had been frantically impacting the acupuncture points that had been hit, and repeatedly colliding with the remaining internal force in the acupuncture points, which would undoubtedly cause harm to the body, and if it was too long, there would be endless troubles.
Jin Tai naturally couldn't let Zhi Canghai suffer this kind of damage, and after feeling that the decoction was almost digested, he immediately withdrew his palm and tapped a few times on several acupuncture points of Zhi Canghai to unlock the acupuncture points.
Zhi Canghai was like a beast that had broken out of its cage, and its whole body shook violently several times, and an earth-shattering roar erupted in his throat again. Jin Tai completed the mission of filling the medicine and flew backwards so as not to get in the way. Master Xuanming and Jin Tai cooperated very tacitly, and when he saw Jin Tai dodging away, he immediately injected more Buddha Yuan internal force into the phantom of his palm.
The golden palm, which was still very virtual, suddenly became solidified, as if it had turned into a palm made of golden water, and grabbed Zhicang Sea with great strength. This time, the palm of the hand has a stronger control over Zhi Canghai.
Seeing that Zhi Canghai was firmly trapped by the golden palm, everyone was more or less relieved. After this stable situation lasted for a short while, everyone's attention shifted from the outbreak of demons to the potency of the medicinal soup, and everyone wondered if the so-called family secret recipe worked.
Relatively speaking, most people are not very optimistic about Zhao Zheng's family secret recipe, because there are too many precedents of failure in the past, and people are used to this kind of failure after failure. Moreover, Zhao Zheng himself is too young and not a person who specializes in medical Taoism, which is even less convincing.
The people in this hall who believe in Zhao Zheng in their hearts do not add up to ten fingers, and there are probably only a few people such as Lei Ming, Xiao Yunyin, and Yu Ling'er. These people have more or less been helped by Zhao Zheng, and they also have a deeper understanding of Zhao Zheng than others, so they have different ideas from most people.
As for the people who don't believe in Zhao Zheng, the one who doesn't trust Zhao Zheng the most is the Liao Divine Doctor, who looked at Zhi Canghai in the middle of the hall with a good look, waiting for the medicinal soup to fail, or other serious side effects.
"Hmph, what kind of bullshit family heirloom secret recipe, so many of our masters have failed to eliminate the demons in Zhicanghai's heart with their joint efforts, just because you don't have a single hair and want to eradicate the demons? It's the funniest joke in the world. Liao Sanzhen secretly sneered in his heart.
However, just when Liao Sanzhen had just flashed such a thought, the irascible Zhi Canghai slowly calmed down for some reason, his originally red eyes gradually faded, and his pupils also regained their rational look. The veins on his skin slowly sank, and his skin became smooth again. As for the surging internal force swept by the storm, it also disappeared.
Noticing this scene, Liao Sanzhen's expression with a sneer suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened dramatically, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
"Lord Zhi seems to have calmed down, and his strength to resist is much less." Master Xuan Ming was the first to wonder.
"Could it be that the medicinal soup has worked?" When Jin Tai heard this, his face showed surprise, and there was a trace of expectation in his eyes as he stared at Zhi Canghai.
The people around also stood up one after another, unable to sit still any longer, and all of them stared at Zhicanghai.
"What's the matter, could it be that this decoction really works?"
"If that's the case, this potion is amazing."
"Don't make up your mind so early, let's see what kind of reaction Zhi Daxia will have later, I don't think this demon is so easy to eradicate."
Everyone talked about it, and they all said anything, but no matter what they said, their eyes stared straight at Zhicanghai, and they didn't dare to move a little, for fear of missing any important details. (To be continued......)
