Chapter 389: Nine Demon Saints
It was getting dark, and the surroundings were quiet, just in time for a good night's sleep.
But Yin Tiancheng was surprised to find that his body flew up as light as a swallow, and under the bright moonlight, he could vaguely see the surrounding scene.
Feel the refreshing cool breeze blowing in your face, the chirping of crickets in the grass, and the rustle of leaves.
The amazing thing is that these sounds can reflect images in Yin Tiancheng's mind.
He suddenly had the feeling that he could see the scene after hearing the sound.
Scattered farmhouses, golden rice paddies, and towering mountains in the distance......
Everything is so familiar, as if this is the place where I have lived since I was a child.
Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but listen, and actually saw a yellow eel swimming leisurely in the shallow water of a field stalk somewhere below, looking for delicious food.
"It's strange that I suddenly have special abilities?"
Yin Tiancheng was surprised, and suddenly found that something was wrong.
It's so abnormal that I didn't need to land and rest after flying for so long!
Although his cultivation has been successful, he still can't have the immortal spell of soaring clouds and mist like Lu Wu, how can he be able to shuttle freely among the white clouds at this moment?
Yin Tiancheng hurriedly opened his eyes, but he was surprised to see that there were a pair of wings waving around him!
After a closer look, I realized that they were my own hands, but now they have become wings full of feathers!
When I looked down again, the first thing that caught my eye was a belly full of white feathers.
"Didn't I, I became a bird?"
At this moment, Yin Tiancheng couldn't keep his composure, the scene in front of him was too weird, and in a panic, he found that he had lost his balance and landed quickly towards the ground......
With an "ah", Yin Tiancheng only felt that he had fallen into the abyss and suddenly woke up.
It turned out to be just a dream!
Before he could sigh, a sharp pain hit his whole body.
At the same time, Yin Tiancheng felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and the temperature was no different from a corpse.
He couldn't help but moan and wonder where he was.
"Yin Gongzi, are you awake?" Nangong Yan's joyful cry came from his ears.
Yin Tiancheng looked up and found that it was already midnight, he was lying in an unknown meadow, and Nangong Yan had raised a bonfire beside her, and the red light of the fire reflected her face full of sweat and dirt.
"What is this place?" Yin Tiancheng asked subconsciously, feeling a viscous liquid flowing out of his nostrils.
When I reached out and touched it, I realized that the nosebleed was black.
"Oops, I'm poisoned!"
Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but moan, and endured several acupuncture points on his body to prevent poisonous blood from flowing into his heart, while thinking about how he could have been poisoned inexplicably.
It wasn't until he saw the scars in his palms that they were like burns, and it dawned on him.
That abominable monster actually simmered poison on the leather whip!
During the battle, Yin Tian became a follower of the monster, and tightly grasped the black leather whip in his hand, causing venom to invade his body through his skin.
Yin Tiancheng couldn't forgive himself a little, he didn't even notice it in the slightest!
After calming down, Yin Tiancheng realized that it was a colorless and odorless venom, and this was exactly the same scene as when the little marquis of Pingnan Mansion was poisoned.
If nothing else, he is now suffering from the same heart-devouring poison as the little marquis.
After figuring this out, Yin Tiancheng suddenly felt a surge of anger and almost fainted.
"Yin Gongzi, you are poisoned!"
Nangong Yan also sensed that the situation was not good, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the dirty blood from Yin Tiancheng's nose.
As soon as she touched Yin Tiancheng's cold body, Nangong Yan became more and more flustered, and exclaimed: "The land god is not here, what should we do?" Alas, it's all my fault, I should have thought of asking the demon boss for a few Jade Void Pills in case of emergency!"
Yin Tiancheng grimaced at her, and pretended to be relaxed: "Don't worry, Houtu hates people like me the most, how could she let me go to the underworld to make trouble." ”
As he spoke, he wanted to force a few laughs, but he couldn't laugh at the moment.
Because at this time, Yin Tiancheng found that there was suddenly an extra person next to the fire.
This is a big man in a cloth shirt, with thick eyebrows on his face, as if he has a lot of things on his mind.
In the middle of the night, when you suddenly see such a stranger, anyone will be nervous.
Nangong Yan hurriedly got up and blocked in front of Yin Tiancheng to prevent this guy from suddenly hurting people.
Yin Tiancheng said lightly: "Don't be nervous, he has no ill will towards us." ”
From the extremely faint aura emanating from this big man, he sensed that the other party was a human immortal cultivator, not a monster who had cultivated to the essence.
Dongyi, where the monsters are entrenched, can actually meet another human, which has a long-lost intimacy for Yin Tiancheng.
He believed that the other party felt the same way, so he took it for granted that this big man had no ill will towards him.
But at this moment, a cold smile appeared on the face of the big man, and there seemed to be a murderous intent in his eyes.
Yin Tiancheng was shocked, he was highly poisoned in his body, Nangong Yan's cultivation was low, if this guy had bad intentions and wanted to do it, the two of them would not be able to compete at all.
At this time, the wind is gentle, but after an instant, the surrounding wind is fierce, whirring, and the wind is extremely violent.
Suddenly, Yin Tiancheng noticed a large amount of vitality tumbling behind him, and he looked back in surprise, just in time to see a middle-aged strong man galloping over.
The comer instantly approached Yin Tiancheng's side, and his shot was like lightning, hitting several acupoints on his body.
Yin Tiancheng, who had just woken up, couldn't help but see a black eye, and passed out again.
At the same time, the big man cooperated with his companion's actions, restrained Nangong Yan with his body, and used the same technique to point her sleeping hole.
When Yin Tiancheng woke up again, he felt that there was an indescribable sense of comfort all over his body, and the pain caused by the poison had long since disappeared.
When his eyes fully adapted to the environment, Yin Tiancheng realized that he was in a dark room.
The room was bright, but there was no light to be seen, and the light came from the ceiling, shining down like sunlight.
The comfort did not last long, and Yin Tiancheng found that his hands and legs were tied to the bed, but what could bind his hands and feet was only a few finger-thick red ropes.
"Hmph, even this little rope wants to trap me, when I'm a three-year-old?"
Yin Tiancheng was a little lucky, and then struggled hard, but the red rope not only did not break, but was tightened.
After trying a few more times, the result was still the same, and Yin Tiancheng found that he had no ability to break free at all.
He had to give up his efforts, and at that moment, there was a "squeak" turning sound from the side front.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw that there was suddenly a secret door in the wall where the sound was made.
When the door opened, a man appeared.
A middle-aged man who looked only in his thirties, but his eyes were very gentle.
Yin Tiancheng hurriedly closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.
The middle-aged man walked to the head of the bed with a smile and began to take his pulse.
"The recovery is very fast, it seems that it will not take two or three days to get rid of the residual poison in the body. ”
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng immediately opened his eyes and said, "Did you detoxify the heart-devouring poison in my body?"
"Hehe, I knew you were pretending to be asleep. ”
The middle-aged man smiled faintly and replied, "You are obviously a human being, why did you fall for the unique heart-devouring poison of the demon clan?"
Yin Tiancheng asked rhetorically: "Can you untie me first? This rope is really tight enough!"
"Hehe, this is a rope woven by the ancient dragon's tendons, how can a person who cultivates immortals have the ability to break free from its shackles. ”
After a little muttering, the middle-aged man said, "I can't untie you yet, because I don't know if you're friend or foe." ”
Yin Tiancheng was stunned when he heard this, and immediately asked, "Miss Nangong, where is she?"
"You're talking about the girl who came with you, right?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't worry, she is very good now, and I have specially arranged for two little girls to take care of her diet and daily life." Until you've all the toxins removed, you can't meet her for the time being. ”
"Aren't you under house arrest in disguise?"
As soon as Yin Tiancheng scolded secretly, he heard the middle-aged man's old words repeated: "You haven't answered my question yet, who have you offended, and you have actually been poisoned by the heart?"
After hesitating for a moment, Yin Tiancheng still briefly recounted the matter.
Of course, he also kept an eye on it, and just told the middle-aged man about the matter between himself and the two monsters.
The middle-aged man smiled: "In this way, it is not unjust that you lost in the hands of that monster." ”
Yin Tiancheng's heart moved when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Do you know the origin of these two monsters?"
"Of course. With poisonous kung fu, you can reach the point of being supernatural, and looking at the entire Dongyi Continent, there is only one monster. ”
"What kind of thing is this monster that has been cultivated into refinement?"
"His name is Yu Qi, and he is an eared rat monster with tens of thousands of years of Taoism. The other monster is the lionfish spirit that lives in the Liyu River, and its name is Qingqiu. ”
After listening to the middle-aged man's introduction, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but sigh: "These two guys are really a perfect match together!"
The ear rat living in the Danxun Mountain has a magical ability, and is born with a body that is invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, no wonder Yu Qi is good at using poison, it turns out that he has a natural immunity to various toxins.
The lion fish in the Liyu River contains highly poisonous meat, and after people eat it by mistake, if they cannot be detoxified within a moment or three, their lives will be lost.
These two monsters, one is highly poisonous, and the other is invulnerable, so it can be said that they are a good partner that is difficult to find in the world.
No wonder Yin Tiancheng will be embarrassed by them, these two monsters are not ruthless characters that ordinary people can deal with at all.
At this time, the middle-aged man said, "Fortunately, we have a coriander tree growing here, otherwise your life would be in danger." ”
For the plant coriander, Yin Tiancheng is more familiar.
It is a deciduous shrub in the Central Plains, which blooms with bright flowers in early spring and then grows young leaves like plums.
The fruit of the tree is a precious Chinese herb, but the rhizome is highly poisonous, so it is difficult for any living creature to survive under the soil of this shrub.
After being stunned for a moment, Yin Tiancheng asked, "Are you fighting poison with poison and curing the heart poison in my body with coriander root?"
"Yes, that's why I say you're lucky, if you get other types of poison, I might be helpless. ”
"So, I'm back in the Central Plains now?" Yin Tiancheng was surprised.
"No, this is still part of the Dongyi Continent, and you haven't returned to your homeland. ”
"Are you kidding?"
How could Yin Tiancheng believe the words of the middle-aged man, he shook his head and said: "As far as I know, Coriander is a unique tree in the Central Plains Shanshan Mountain, when did Dongyi also have its existence?"
"You don't know this, King Yi came to the east back then, and brought a lot of seeds, and coriander is just one of them. ”
It's related to Hou Yi again! Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man in front of him has a lot of understanding of Hou Yi!
Before Yin Tiancheng came back to his senses, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Who are you and why did you come to us?"
"Below is Yin Tiancheng of Cangzhou Feiyu Gate, who was entrusted to come to Dongyi to do an important thing......"
The middle-aged man cut off his words and asked, "Who are you entrusted with, and what is the purpose of coming to Dongyi?"
"This ...... Please note that I cannot comment below. ”
The middle-aged man's eyes froze, and Huo Ran stood up.
"It seems that you are not willing to tell the truth. ”
He took out something from his sleeve, shook it in front of Yin Tiancheng and said, "How do you explain the origin of this thing?"
Yin Tiancheng was taken aback and blurted out: "Why is the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang in your hands?"
Shocked, he immediately figured it out.
At this time, Yin Tiancheng didn't mention how much he regretted it, he knew that he should have handed over this jade to Lu Wu for safekeeping.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for this middle-aged man to take advantage of his coma to take away the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang.
Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but say angrily: "You are so shameless, give it back to me!"
"Is this your thing? it's a relic of King Yi!"
Yin Tiancheng was silent, wondering how this guy could know the origin of the dragon and phoenix.
The middle-aged man said coldly: "This is the real reason why Mu Yuexin sent his subordinates to hunt down and kill you! If Yu Jue falls into his hands, this demon king will be able to inherit King Yi's inheritance and dominate the demon clan, and then get involved in the world!"
Yin Tiancheng was very shocked, not only surprised that the middle-aged man knew the secret of Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang better than himself, but also wondered when he had offended Mu Yuexin.
This demon king of Dongyi doesn't seem to be a narrow-minded person, so he didn't want to get rid of himself because of a few words of ridicule in Shushan.
Seeing the middle-aged man's eyes staring at him like a torch, Yin Tiancheng finally couldn't help but ask: "Yu Qi and Qing Qi are Mu Yuexin's subordinates?"
"Yes. ”
The middle-aged man said lightly: "Mu Yuexin was driven out of the Hanging City, and nine capable assistants were recruited along the way, and they are known as the Nine Demon Saints of Dongyi. After the war subsided, the two Demon Saints with the greatest merit were made marquises, occupying two dangerous passes in Dongyi......"
Yin Tiancheng subconsciously answered: "They are Pingnan Hou Feng Qingyi and Zhenbei Hou Yun Hongtian?"
The middle-aged man nodded and continued, "The other seven Demon Saints stayed in the Nine Shadows City to assist Mu Yuexin in governing Dongyi. And the eared rat monster and the lionfish spirit are two of these demon saints. ”
Yin Tiancheng was secretly shocked when he heard this, the two demon saints were difficult to deal with, and it was even more difficult to deal with other monsters.
