Volume 2 Stormy Eighteen States Chapter 249 Looking back on the past, the overall situation is beginning to emerge
The ginseng Gu soaked in the big medicine barrel for a whole day, and the next morning, in the anxious waiting of everyone, the ginseng Gu finally reacted.
The ginseng Gu in the medicine barrel had a noticeable improvement in complexion, and his skin had turned bloody, but the potion in the barrel had changed from brown to black, and it emitted a disgusting smell, and the ginseng Gu in the barrel emitted a "hiss-la-hiss" sound similar to the melting of ice and snow.
The last loud bang came from the cave, and with a "bang", the entire barrel exploded in an instant, and the potion splashed everywhere.
Ning Xiaochuan and Liao Chongyun came when they heard the sound, and as soon as they came in, they saw the ginseng Gu lying naked on the ground, the two of them didn't care about the foul-smelling potion, so they quickly dressed the ginseng Gu and put him on the stone bed.
But at this time, the ginseng Gu was obviously not in the same state as before, and the wound on the neck of the ginseng Gu at this time had faded to black, and there were no traces of the wound.
Liao Chongyun re-checked the physical state of the ginseng Gu, and after looking and hearing about it, he bowed his head slightly, "The high priest's illness has been alleviated, and the toxins in his body have been expelled, but the whole person's heart is still a little weak, and the operation of true qi is a little unsmooth, but it is not a big deal, and it will not take a few days to fully recover." ”
Hearing Liao Chongyun's words, Ning Xiaochuan nodded with relief, and arched his hand at Liao Chongyun, "Mr. Liao, thank you so much." ”
Liao Chongyun glanced at Ning Xiaochuan, "Don't forget what you promised the old man, after you wake up, you have to send the old man out of Miao Jiang safely." ”
"That's natural, sir, don't worry." Ning Xiaochuan said.
After that, both of them retreated and let Shen Gu rest by himself, after Ning Xiaochuan came out, he roughly told everyone about the situation of Shen Gu, Yu Xi Ning bowed slightly, "Then now it depends on when the high priest can wake up, and I don't know what the situation of Princess Shen Li is." ”
After a while, Nie Hongyi hurried over in a Miao Jiang dress, and said anxiously as soon as they met, "Princess, the situation of Princess Shenli is not optimistic, she is locked in an iron cage in the square in front of the main hall, and I heard that Yin Yan is going to hold a festival in two days, so I didn't inquire about what she was doing." ”
"Festivals? He didn't want to use Princess Shenli to sacrifice, I heard that many foreign tribes have the habit of sacrificing people. Nie Hongyi said anxiously when she heard this.
Ning Xiaochuan frowned, "In two days, this is trouble, if the high priest doesn't wake up, we will have to find a way to save people by ourselves." ”
While a few people were pondering, a violent cough was heard in the cave.
Several people hurriedly walked into the cave, only to see that Sam Gu didn't know when he woke up, lying on the stone bed coughing non-stop, and at the same time, there was black blood he spit out next to the bed.
"High Priest, how are you feeling now, are you feeling better?" Ning Xiaochuan gently picked up the ginseng Gu and asked softly.
Shen Gu gasped heavily, and after he was breathing well, he looked around, as if he was curious about why he was here, and then he was even more curious when he heard Ning Xiaochuan's Central Plains accent, and said in a broken Central Plains dialect, "Who are you?" Why am I here? ”
Ning Xiaochuan bowed slightly, and told Shen Gu everything that happened along the way.
Listening to it, Shen Gu couldn't believe that these things were actually done by his daughter.
Thinking of how much sadness and grievances her daughter had to encounter along the way when she left the Central Plains for herself, Shen Gu couldn't help but shed tears.
Her daughter is the princess of Miao Jiang, and she has never suffered any grievances since she was a child, but she didn't expect to suffer so much for him this time, and the more she thought about it, the more sad she became.
"Thank you for coming to the rescue, I can't repay you for your kindness." Shen Gu said, it took a lot of effort to perform a Miao Jiang etiquette, but then thinking of Shen Li's situation, he couldn't help but look lonely, "It's just pity my daughter......"
"High Priest, now is not the time to be sad, we still have two days to save the princess, we have to find a way to save the princess, at least not let her be poisoned by Yin." Ning Xiaochuan said anxiously.
Shen Gu's face was also full of worry, in fact, the most worried about Shen Li was still Shen Gu, after all, no father wanted his daughter to bear the shame of being imprisoned in an iron cage, "If I guess correctly, Yin Yan wants to take Shen Li away so hard, it should be for the sake of the ghost." ”
"Ghost Guard?" Ning Xiaochuan and the others looked at each other in confusion, how could this be a new term?
Shen Gu bowed slightly, "The Ghost Brake Servant is my Miao Jiang secret technique, it is the pinnacle of Miao Jiang's poisonous luck, it sounds a little obscure, I don't know if you have seen Yin Ming's Seven Evils, to put it bluntly, the Seven Evils are incomplete Ghost Brake Attendants." ”
"What?" Ning Xiaochuan was greatly surprised, and as soon as he explained this, he understood that what kind of ghost brake attendant, it sounded quite lofty, but in fact, it was to use poison gas to make a living person into a puppet, and the last puppet was called a ghost guard.
Thinking of this, Ning Xiaochuan couldn't help but gasp, is this Miao Jiang secret technique so terrifying?
"Because the Oni Ming Brake is so dark, its production method has been listed as a forbidden secret art by the high priests of all generations for thousands of years, and it is divided into two parts.
Our family keeps some of them separately, and the high priests of the past dynasties keep a part of it, and the high priests of the past dynasties have a clear precept, and when Miao Jiang is not in danger, the ghost is not available.
With the annexation of Miao Jiang to Dafeng, the war decreased, and the opportunity for the ghost to appear was less and less, until a hundred years ago, after the last ghost was destroyed by the then high priest, the ghost was destroyed by the high priest at the time, and the ghost Ming brake disappeared from the field of vision of the people of Miao Jiang. Sam Gu patiently explained to everyone.
"Yin Kai is a supreme genius, I also took a fancy to his talent back then, brought him back to the Thousand Caves, and handed over the "Internal Poison Burning Sutra" to him, "Internal Poison Burning Sutra" is the upper part of the production of the ghost brake, at that time I did take him as the high priest to cultivate, so I handed over this secret art to him.
However, I neglected his ambitions, his mind was gloomy, he never thought about the livelihood of the people, he only had power and status in his mind, and he opened his mouth and closed his mouth to let Miao Jiang rise.
However, this does not deny his martial arts talent, he quickly ate this poison scripture, and even made the prototype of the ghost brake in the absence of the lower "Hundred Domains Heart Sutra", that is, the Seven Evils. Sanli said helplessly.
What happened later was that Yin Yan wanted to be a ghost guard, but as a high priest, Shen Gu knew that the ghost spirit must not appear in the land of Miao Jiang, so he tried his best to obstruct it.
However, the change in Sichuan and Shu two years ago changed all this, Shen Gu was assassinated bizarrely, unconscious, Yin Kai took the opportunity to take the position, and exposed his ambitions, taking advantage of the civil strife in Sichuan and Shu, trying to make Miao Jiang rise, and then causing war, harming Miao Jiang for two years without peace.
"You mean, the reason why Yin Yan took Princess Shenli away was because of the Hundred Domains Heart Sutra of the Ginseng Family?" Ning Xiaochuan asked curiously.
Shen Gu smiled bitterly, "It would be nice if this was the case, and I am not afraid to tell you, in fact, what is needed to refine the Ghost Soul Servant is not the mental method of the Hundred Domains Heart Sutra, but the essence blood of the cultivator." ”
"In that case, isn't the princess of Sanli more than lucky?" Yu Xining got up and said anxiously.
The appearance of this ghost attendant made the originally complicated situation even more complicated, Ning Xiaochuan got up and said, "High Priest, judging from the current situation, is there only one way for us to rush into the Qianming Cave to save people?" ”
Shen Gu took a deep breath, slowly stretched out his hand, and a ball of purple true qi on the palm of his hand slowly appeared, but it didn't take long for it to disappear on its own, seeing this situation, Shen Gu shook his head helplessly, "At that time, after I realized that I was poisoned, I immediately closed my heart veins and curbed the spread of poisonous gas, but my heart veins were blocked for too long, and the operation of true qi was affected, and even if I could go, in terms of our strength, we were not the opponents of Qisha and Yin Yan at all." ”
"I don't think that's a problem." As soon as Shen Gu's voice fell, at the entrance of the cave, Pei Yu didn't know when he appeared there, shaking his fan, and said indifferently.
Shen Gu looked at Pei Yu curiously, and Ning Xiaochuan hurriedly explained, "It's okay, my own people, and with him, we have enough strength to deal with Yin Yu." ”
Sam Gu saluted again, "Thank you." ”
"Yin Kai has not succeeded as the high priest, then I am still the high priest in Miao Jiang, Qianming Cave has become Yin Kai's lair, if we want to bring him down, we still need some helpers." After Gu finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing.
Ning Xiaochuan looked at Sam Gu worriedly, "Helper? ”
"The three major tribes of Miaojiang complement each other, one is prosperous, one is lost, and now Miaojiang is in trouble, he and the Xin will never see death and will not be saved, and there are my old friends in Huajian City, so I should be able to help some." After coughing twice, Shen Gu said slowly.
At this moment, Ning Xiaochuan and Shen Gu still didn't know anything about the city affairs of Huajian City, if they knew, they probably even had the heart to skin Bashen.
"The High Priest said a solution." Ning Xiaochuan nodded and said, "In that case, then I and Pei Yu's seniors, Grandpa Kong will go to Qianming Cave to save people, Miss Nie, Xi Ning, you wait for the high priest to get better, and then accompany him to Huajian City and the Yu Clan, and the Xin Clan will move the rescue soldiers...... Ning Xiaochuan is making arrangements in an orderly manner.
The ginseng Gu next to him stretched out his hand to interrupt him, "We have to do it at the same time, time waits for no one, it's better for us to set off immediately." ”
"But you have just recovered from a serious illness and your body has not yet recovered, so it would be better to rest," Ning Xiaochuan said with a frown and worry.
"I'm no longer in good health, now my daughter is still suffering in Qianming Cave, what mood do I have to rest here, we set off at the same time, and then meet outside Qianming Cave, Miao Jiang's suffering in the past two years should come to an end this year." Sam Gu let out a long sigh, his tone full of determination and determination.
For Shen Gu, it was the responsibility of his high priest that Miao Jiang was martyred, and it was his father's responsibility if his daughter had an accident.
Not only did he not be a good high priest, but he also failed to be a good father, and since fate had awakened him and given him the opportunity to change the situation, he had to hold this opportunity firmly in his hands no matter what.
