At noon the next day, Ling Zhaoxu was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing anxiously back and forth in the guest room, when he heard footsteps outside the door, and Bai Yixue and Shen Lingshan had already floated in. Ling Zhaoxu rushed to the door, bowed his hand, and said, "Ling welcomes the two envoys of Black Eyes and White Cloud!"

Bai and Shen were stunned when they heard this, and then they came to their senses, Shen Lingshan couldn't help laughing, and almost laughed, but fortunately, Ling Zhaoxu bowed his head and saluted, but he didn't notice it. Bai Yixue also couldn't hold back a smile, and only said lightly: "Master Ling doesn't need to be polite. Let's go. ”

After the two of them came out of Ling Zhaoxu's room last night, Shen Lingshan suddenly smiled and said, "White Cloud Envoy, Black-eyed Envoy, I estimate that even if Ling Da Master racked his brains, he couldn't think of such two envoys in the Love Sect. ”

Bai Yixue smiled and said, "Yes, we are making a name for the Love Sect, you said that their sect leader, how can we thank us?"

Shen Lingshan said with a smile: "Yes, if we meet Su Mianchou in the future, he should make us a true messenger." The black-eyed envoy and the white-cloud envoy are like a pair of ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't help but be ashamed, and a layer of blush appeared on his pale face.

Bai Yixue understood what she meant, so she only pretended not to hear clearly, and asked, "What is the point about the sad bone pill you gave Ling Zhao? I think he is terribly scared." ”

Shen Lingshan's face did not recede, and he said with a smile: "Where in this world is there any sad bone pill? It's just that I'm just talking about it and fabricating it to scare him, but in fact, it's just a pill that strengthens the spleen and invigorates qi." ”

Bai Yixue thought of an ordinary pill, and actually subdued Ling Zhaoxu, who had great powers, and couldn't help laughing, and said: "The girl is really a good means, a small pill, just make the thousand-handed spirit ape bow down to her ears, and dare not make the slightest mistake." ”

Shen Lingshan's face turned red and said with a smile: "Where, little sister, I just borrow the white ...... Brother Bai, your might, the fox is just a fake tiger. The two have been getting along day and night for more than a month, and they have always treated each other with courtesy, she had always called him "Bai Jun", but now she suddenly changed her name to "Big Brother Bai".

Bai Yixue smiled slightly and said, "My sister is too humble." Black eyes and white clouds, black and white envoys, that is also black first, and white last, black on top, and white on the bottom, there is a difference between dignity and inferiority. As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Shen Lingshan, and said, "The black-eyed envoy is above, please accept the next worship from his subordinates!" He heard Shen Lingshan change his name to call himself "big brother", his heart was hot, and he immediately changed his mouth to call her "sister", but it was also kind and natural, and he thought: "I only have such a relative as Master in the world, if there is really a sister like you, how good it would be!"

Shen Ling smiled coquettishly and said, "Okay, no courtesy." Since there is a difference between dignity and inferiority, I will let you go east ...... in the future."

Bai Yixue said solemnly: "The subordinates will never go west, even if the sword mountains and the sea of fire in front of them, the abyss, the black-eyed Venerable will obey orders if he has a drive! After speaking, he laughed with Shen Lingshan.

The two returned to their lodgings and rested in peace, but they did not say anything at night, so they did not express it for the time being.

Besides, Ling Zhaoxu accompanied Bai Yixue and Shen Lingshan, walked out of the inn, and walked in the direction of Tangjiabao. Ling Zhaoxu's demeanor was respectful, as if he was extremely jealous of the people in the love sect, and he followed the two not far behind, asking a question and answering a word, but he didn't say a word. Along the way, I met many martial arts people who went to Tangjiabao to attend the meeting, and many of them were familiar with Ling Zhaoxu, and they greeted him one after another, and the two sides couldn't help but say a few words, but Ling Zhaoxu only didn't want to say a word.

Tangjiabao is only three or five miles away from Yufeng Town, and it is only a meal away. Getting closer, the Tangjiabao in front of you is like a lively market town, there are no high walls and deep ravines, there are no strict barriers, and there is no one guarding the gate of the fort, and you can enter and exit freely.

The three of them entered the fort, the white clothes and snow saw the alleys and alleys, the shops were lined up, and all kinds of shops were showing in the wind, which was no different from other towns in the northern part of Sichuan, and they couldn't help but feel slightly surprised in their hearts, and they looked carefully all the way, and the storefronts along the street were mostly Xila shops, iron shops, pot and kettle shops, embroidery needle shops, scissors shops, ploughing tool shops, and all kinds of medicinal herb shops, and they thought in their hearts: "These shops in the fort should be related to the fact that the Tang Men are good at forging hidden weapons and making poison Gu." ”

The "Catch Fish" conference is imminent, and all kinds of people with sharp blades can be seen everywhere in the alleys and markets, all of whom are coming to the meeting. Shen Lingshan turned his head to Ling Zhaoxu and said, "Master Ling, please go forward." Ling Zhao replied: "Yes." He immediately stepped forward, separated from Shen and Bai. The three of them didn't need to ask for directions, they just walked leisurely with the flow of people.

There are many pharmacies in the market, and the smell of medicinal herbs is thick. Shen Lingshan saw that Bai Yixue was confused, smiled slightly, and said: "When people in the rivers and lakes talk about the poison of the Tang Sect, they all change color. In fact, there is always a certain prejudice in the world about poison. ”

Bai Yixue said: "Oh? I would like to hear the details of the girl." ”

Shen Lingshan said: "When people talk about medicine, they always feel that it can cure diseases and promote longevity, and when it comes to poison, they are afraid of three points in their hearts. "Shennong's Materia Medica" divides the medicine into upper, middle and lower grades, saying that the drug is "toxic" and "non-toxic". ’”

Bai Yixue said: "I understand this meaning, it means that when the medicine is taken according to the condition, start with a small dose, and the medication must be stopped when the disease is gone, and if the condition does not improve, the dose must be increased." ”

Shen Lingshan smiled and said: "Exactly, but pharmacologically speaking, medicine and poison are actually the same. The "Neijing" says, 'Poison attacks evil, five grains are food, five fruits are help, five animals are benefit, and five vegetables are filled.' And he said, "The stone of moxibustion is the master of poison." Originally, there was no distinction between poison and medicine, but anything that warded off evil and was safe and righteous could be called 'poison'. ”

Bai Yixue smiled: "It's a medicine that is three points poisonous." ”

Shen Lingshan said: "Yes." Therefore, the drugs in the world are a little biased, depending on how you treat this bias. If bias is the right evidence, it is a medicine and not a poison, and if it is not a testimony, it is a poison and not a medicine. ”

Bai Yixue patted the back of her head and said, "I understand, since the Tang Sect is a family that makes poison, there are many people who are deeply versed in pharmacology under its door, no wonder there are so many pharmacies in Tangjiabao." Since drugs can be compared to poisons, isn't the treatment of drugs a process of 'fighting poison with poison'?"

Shen Lingshan said: "Exactly." Everything in the world was originally born and restrained by each other. Legend has it that Taizong gave Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, to death with the 'leading medicine', and the queen Li left behind the words of blood and tears of 'flowing water and falling flowers and spring, heaven and earth'. Although the toxicity of the drug is strong, if it can be corrected, it can also have the effect of reducing swelling and pain, and dispersing knots, which is its medicinal properties. Doctors pay attention to fighting poison with poison and correcting deviations with deviations, which is the so-called 'turning poison into medicine' and 'turning harm into benefit'. ”

Baiyi Xue said: "'The pink stone head is still boneless, and the snow-white puffer fish is not a medicine. 'Fugu liver, seeds, eyes, and blood are highly poisonous, but if cooked properly, they are the world's best delicacy. ”

Shen Lingshan said with a smile: "Yes, for example, snake venom can not only harm people, but also save people." However, everything must pay attention to the word 'degree'. As the saying goes, 'If it is medicine, it will be three points poison, and it will be three points of risk.' No matter how good the delicacy is, if you eat it every day, you are afraid that it will taste the same as chewing wax in the future, which is far less delicious than a bowl of white porridge, and no matter how good the tonic is, if you abuse it arbitrarily, you will throw the medicine stone indiscriminately, and then you will only be afraid that you will not be sick and will hurt yourself. ”

As the two of them walked and talked, they heard the voices of people in front of them, and when they bypassed the corner of the street, they suddenly opened up in front of them, and a huge square appeared, with hundreds of tables of banquets on the field, and the black pressure was crowded with people, not to mention seven or eight hundred people. There are so many people in the Tang Sect, Bai Yixue and Shen Lingshan couldn't help but feel frightened when they saw this momentum, and they were suddenly wary.

When I got closer, I was greeted by a guest. Ling Zhaoxu handed over the invitation, and the acquaintance opened it, and said with a smile: "Master Ling, it's been hard all the way, please here!" took the three of them to the banquet in the second row of the east head and sat down. The table is full of all kinds of melons and fruit snacks.

There were already five people sitting on the seat, and after a little leisure, I learned that two of them were thieves who were rampant in eastern Sichuan and Gannan, one was called Peng Chu, and the other was called Yan Yabai, known as "Shuangsha in eastern Sichuan". Peng and Yan are tall and short, fat and thin, black and white, and they contrast with each other, and their appearance is unbearable, but they are actually ruthless characters on the East Sichuan Road. The remaining three are all minions under the Eastern Sichuan Shuangsha.

"Sichuan Eastern Shuangsha" was also invited by Tang Zhuo, the sect leader of the Tang Sect, although they did not know Ling Zhaoxu, but they had already heard of his name, and the words in the greetings were quite polite, and they saw that Bai and Shen were young, and they were only disciples of Ling Zhaoxu, and they bowed their heads slightly to the two, which was regarded as a greeting.

Ling Zhaoxu drank tea and talked, while secretly observing Bai and Shen with the afterglow in his eyes, and thought to himself: "I won't show my face, let's see what the two of them have in mind." The female doll had a sick face, and she couldn't help but feel weak, and she didn't know if she was born like this, or if she had suffered a bad change? Well, yes, looking at her complexion, it seems to be poisoned, most of them have a grudge with the Tang Sect before, and they are coming to seek revenge today. ”

The white-clothed snow looked around, saw the central open space surrounded by the banquet, set up a square ring, the north side of the center of the ring, hung a huge black brocade flag, embroidered on the brocade flag with a golden fish-like lock key, the fish mouth big lips thick, the eyes are small and spirited, the anal fin is extended, the dorsal fin is erected, the fish whiskers are smart, the head and tail are cruising between the algae, as if jumping out of the brocade flag at any time, very vivid and lively.

There were nine chairs on each side of the ring, and the chairs were covered with satin cushions. I also saw that on the first banquet in the west a few tables away, Chishui Daoren, Xiang Ninghui, Nangong Shang, Bao Hong and other people from the seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan had also arrived, but they did not see Lu Shijia's figure, and they didn't know whether Yan Yunzong was dead or alive.

Invitations came one after another, disturbing the crowd, the sun was three poles, noon had passed, and more than 100 tables of banquets were gradually filled. Most of these people are acquaintances, they haven't met for a long time, they have greeted each other, and they have held hands to say goodbye, and the square is very lively for a while. Occasionally, Ling Zhaoxu's acquaintances asked about Bai and Shen, but Ling Zhaoxu was vague, only saying that it was his two friends from afar, who came to see the excitement. He introduced it like this, squinting at Bai and Shen's calm faces, as if he didn't care, and felt a little more at ease in his heart, and saw the two of them sitting on the seat, looking as usual, thinking that the two of them had not dried up, and went deep into Tangjiabao alone to run errands, they had such determination and courage, and the love education could rise rapidly in recent years. Thinking of this, I was worried that Shen Lingshan would fulfill his promise and hand over the antidote to the sad bone pill, sitting upright, and feeling uneasy.

Inadvertently, the eighteen seats on the ring were also seated, and Bai Yixue knew a person on the east side, with a long figure and a cold expression, it was Tang Zhuo who had been photographed in the Zhongwu Hou Temple that night. There were many noisy people at the scene, the two were far away, Tang Zhuo's brows were tightly locked, and he seemed to be preoccupied, as if he didn't notice Bai Yixue sitting under the ring. On the west side of the ring sat a young man in a green shirt, with a look of arrogance on his face, Bai Yixue recognized it as Lu Shijia, and a tall old man with a white beard beside him, closed his eyes alone to recuperate, and turned a deaf ear to the noise and noise of the scene, thinking that it was Lu Gushan, the head of the "Sword Pavilion Faction" and the "Fish Dragon Sword".

Bai Yixue was thinking to herself, but before she saw Yan Yunzong, she suddenly heard someone in the distance say loudly: "The time has come, the 'catch fish' conference has officially begun!" There were hundreds of people in the square, and the hustle and bustle was like a busy city, but that person was extremely full of energy, and every word was clearly sent into everyone's ear drums, and the sound of the audience was immediately suppressed, and the scene immediately quieted down. Bai Yixue felt a pang in her heart: "This person has such deep internal strength. ”

I saw an old man come up to the stage, extremely tall and thin, like a bamboo pole. He began to loudly introduce the guests in the ring to the crowd in the audience, except for Tang Zhuo, Lu Gushan and his son, the rest of the people were Tang Menxian, the elders of the Second Sect of Mi, and a number of famous figures. Xianzong came to Tang Mang, Tang Xun, Tang Zheng, Tang Rong, Tang Ju, Tang Ran, Tang Xuan, Tang Siyou, Tang Si'an and other senior citizens in Tantra, as well as Tang Du, Tang Xu, Tang Xun, Tang Huang, Tang Yang and other good players, all present, Bai Yixue listened carefully, but did not hear Tang Wei's name, thinking that Tang Zhuo should not have deceived himself.

The tall and thin old man had a majestic demeanor and a deep voice, but it was extremely penetrating, and he clearly introduced every guest in the ring, who was the one who spoke before. In the Tang Sect, except for Tang Mang, Tang Xun, Tang Siyou, Tang Si'an and other extremely high-ranking people, who sat upright, the rest of the people stood up one by one when the tall and thin old man read his name, standing with his hands down, and was extremely respectful to him.
