Chapter 11: The Secret of the Helian Family

Qin Guan and the others followed Helian Hao and Hao Zhicheng into the two-story small wooden building in the small courtyard. The first floor of the wooden building was empty, although nothing could be seen with the naked eye, Qin Guan's spiritual sense could vaguely see that the stone bricks on the ground were very different from those in the living room, and it was obviously tempered with spiritual power. "I guess this is the center of the formation in the courtyard. Qin Guan pondered in his heart. Helian Hao and Qin Guan confessed their sins and went upstairs alone, with Hao Zhicheng and Wu Qi accompanying Qin Guan below. Wu Qi himself has never been to this small courtyard, the city lord's mansion covers an extremely wide area, if you don't look down from the air, no one can find a small courtyard surrounded by formations, so Wu Qi is here for the first time, looking at everything is fresh, if you are not afraid of embarrassing the city lord, it is time to touch the walls and wall pillars with your hands.

A moment later, Helian Hao pushed a wheelchair and slowly descended from the second floor. No wonder this staircase Qin Guan felt strange at first sight, it was not a staircase but a straight slope, which was originally for the convenience of wheelchairs going up and down the stairs. There was a thin man sitting in the wheelchair, who was only in his thirties, and his appearance was seven or eight points similar to Helian Hao, but he seemed to be in a poor mental state, and his eyes were staring at Qin Guan directly, which was very scary.

When Hao Zhicheng saw the person in the wheelchair, he bowed and saluted, "Meet the city lord." Originally, Wu Ke's big mouth wanted to ask Hao Zhicheng beside him what was going on, didn't he say that the old city lord had died, but he remembered that Hao Zhicheng told him not to talk too much on the way, so he held back the words that he immediately spoke, and saluted behind Hao Zhicheng.

The person in the wheelchair seemed unaware of it, and had no meaning to speak at all. Qin Guan Spiritual Sense swept the old city lord who had cheated to death, and found that the muscles of his whole body were imprisoned by a strange spiritual power, so he could only sit motionless and be pushed by his son in a wheelchair. "This fellow Taoist is polite, please forgive me for not being able to welcome you in person. "The voices coming out of the wheelchair's body were as muddy as if they were coming out of water. Wu Ke looked dazed, this voice seemed to be different from the city lord in his memory. Helian Hao and Hao Zhicheng looked indifferent, and they wanted to get used to it.

Qin Guan led his group and bowed, and then said: "Fellow Daoist, you don't need to say much, your physical condition is not good, it seems that something happened to you? Could it be that you have been poisoned?"

Helian Hao and Hao Zhicheng were stunned, they didn't expect Qin Guan to see Helianjun for the first time, and they could find out that Helianjun had been poisoned. After Helian Hao was stunned, he hurriedly knelt down in front of Qin Guan, startled Qin Guan, and hurriedly wanted to help him up. I only heard Helian Hao lean down and said, "Immortal Master Qin can see at a glance that my father is a strange poison in his body, and there must be a solution." As a son of man, I can't bear to see my father suffer anymore, so I ask Qin Immortal Master to fulfill a piece of filial piety and relieve my father's pain. In the next step, he will be a cow and a horse in this life to repay the kindness of the immortal master. After finishing speaking, he began to kowtow to Qin Guan on the ground, even if his forehead was bleeding, he didn't care.

Qin couldn't see a filial child suffering, so he hurriedly restrained Helian Hao's figure, pulled him up from the ground, and said to him: "Since I have the fate to see it today, then I must be duty-bound, and I don't need to be polite." Then he unlocked his immobilization spell. Helian Hao still wanted to kowtow to thank him, but his body swayed for a while, Wu Qi and Hao Zhicheng on the side hurriedly supported him, and Qin Guan also asked him to sit down and rest for a while, and Qin Guan would observe his father's condition.

Helian Jun didn't have any expression on his face, but when he saw his weak son kowtowing to Qin Guan regardless of his body for himself, begging Qin Guan to heal him, although he couldn't speak and his muscles couldn't move, his eyes couldn't help but shed tears. "Hey~" sighed, and wanted to thank Qin Guan, but he had already used a lot of spiritual power to maintain that the poison in his body would no longer spread into the dantian, and now he couldn't do it anymore if he wanted to use his spiritual power to shake the air and speak.

Qin Guan understood Helian Jun's thoughts, waved his hand at him, and motioned for him to concentrate and calm down, not to let the toxin explode. Qin Guan read in his mouth: "Xuanling Festival Glory, eternal longevity, Taixuan Trinity, keep its true form, the five visceral gods, and each security is peaceful." After a pause, the spiritual power ran to the tip of his right finger, pinched out the sword and pointed it at Helianjun's Mud Pill Palace, and shouted: "Duh!" Qin Guan This is the Xuanling spell taught by Changwuzi, which is most suitable for people with evil in the body, which is exactly what Helianjun's current situation is. In Qin's view, the toxin is a kind of external evil, although his cultivation has not yet reached the foundation, and the effect may be a little worse, but it should not be a problem to suppress it.

As soon as the spiritual power above Qin Guan's sword finger entered Helian Jun's Mud Pill Palace, Helian Jun was shocked, and a cloud of green gas exhaled from his mouth. Seeing this, Qin Guan didn't dare to move his hand away from the top of Helian Jun's head, so he could only shout at everyone: "Don't let this poisonous gas get contaminated on your body!" Qing Jing and the others saw the poisonous gas floating slowly, and they dodged aside, and then used the spiritual power of their whole body to trap this poisonous gas in place, and gradually turned into a pool of dark green poisonous water.

Helian Jun's side was forced out of most of the poisonous gas, and his body could move, so he quickly got up from the wheelchair, bowed down to Qin Guan and said, "Thank you Daoyou for your help, Helian Jun has a deep feeling." Qin Guan replied: "Daoist friends don't need to be polite, it's better to breathe first to save the spread of toxins in the body." ”

Seeing that his father was able to speak, Helian Hao also got up from the ground on the side, saying that he would kneel down and salute Qin Guan to express his gratitude. Qin Guan was helpless, why was this family so polite, and stopped Helian Hao without saying anything, and asked him to go to the side to rest, it was not too late to talk about these customs when his father was all ready.

Qing Jing and the others spent a lot of spiritual power to condense the poisonous water in the center of the room into a round poisonous pill. Qin Guan wrapped the poison pill that had turned black with his spiritual power, and carefully packed it into an empty jade bottle in the Qiankun bag. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, this thing was really scary, it consumed the spiritual power of ten people, and it could be regarded as imprisoning it, no wonder He Lianjun suffered so much.

Qin Guan carefully studied the poison pill through the jade bottle, and found that this poison pill seemed to be mixed with dozens of poisons and refined with a unique alchemy technique. Qin Guan didn't know who Helian Jun had a deep grudge with, and he actually made people try to put him to death, so he could only wait for Helian Jun's luck to breathe before asking.

-------------------------------------

Two hours later, after dinner, Qin Guan cast another spell on Helianjun and took out the remaining poison pill, and Helianjun was considered to have fully recovered. Another thankful salute, Qin Guan had no choice, he was kowtowed by Helian Hao more than a dozen times, if he hadn't stopped him, this kid might not have kowtowed and fainted. On the side, Helian Hao's father, Helian Jun, didn't care, watching his son kowtow for him, and praised him happily, he really had a big heart, didn't he know that his son was weak and sick? Qin Guan muttered in his heart and rolled his eyes at Helian Jun dozens of times.

In the evening, Helian Hao and the others did not alarm the rest of the house, and Wu Qi and Hao Zhicheng accompanied Qingjing and others to guard around the courtyard, in case there were spies to investigate, Helian father and son and Qin Guan talked about what they encountered in the small building.

Qin Guan asked Helian Jun if he knew who poisoned him. Helian Jun said: "Don't hide it from Qin Daoyou, in fact, I have thought about it these days, and I feel that the three major families in Star City are the most likely people to poison me." However, there are no monks in these three families, and it is impossible for them to have such a means of refining poison, they must have the instructions of Jiuyuan Mountain behind them!" "This is the second time Qin Guan has heard of Jiuyuan Mountain, but he doesn't know what this Jiuyuan Mountain is, and why he wants to poison the Helian family like this. Helian Jun and Helian Hao glanced at each other and said, "Fellow Daoist, this is a long story. This Jiuyuan Mountain is a deserted island a hundred miles away from my star island, originally the island was uninhabited, but thirty years ago, when my father was alive, a group of scattered cultivators occupied the island. They have their eyes on my Star Island, but they have repeatedly failed to break through the large array that my Helian family has laid on this island, so they can be regarded as peaceful. But they secretly colluded with the other three big families on the island, and for thirty years they continued to make small moves, and although my father and I fought hard, my father was still plotted and died young. I was careful enough to repeat the same mistake as my father. ”

"Hmm, thirty years ago, wasn't that the time when Senior Sister Gu encountered a catastrophe in the first place? Could it be that these things were all done by a group of people?" Qin Guan thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know about the ghost mansion in the city? Do you know what happened to the Gu family thirty years ago?"

Helian Jun nodded and replied, "Presumably Daoyou saw the young lady of the Gu family? Hey, that's also a poor person." Don't hide it from fellow Daoists, the Gu family was originally the guardian of my Helian family's two bright and dark Star City, and the ancestors of the Gu family would rather be incognito because my Helian family ancestors were kind to them, and their line guarded Star City and my Helian family in the dark. And my Helian family is in the bright place, guarding the Star Island as the city lord. Unexpectedly, thirty years ago, because of the fighting with the monks of Jiuyuan Mountain, under negligence, the thieves took advantage of the situation and slaughtered the Gu family, and my father was also seriously injured in that battle and died soon after. However, in that battle, the monks of Jiuyuan Mountain were also killed by my father, and almost ten people were killed, and their vitality was greatly damaged, so they were able to maintain peace for decades. Qin Guan was clear, this makes sense, otherwise how could the Gu family have such an experience, and there are still things in the family that keep the monks, it must have been given by the Helian family.

Qin Guan wondered, why were the Helian family and the Gu family sparsely populated, and why were there only Helian Jun as a monk? Helian Jun explained: "Daoist friends don't know, at the beginning, my ancestor was just a mortal, because he accidentally got a volume of cultivation exercises, he stepped into cultivation. However, that exercise is a bit evil, and it seems to have a curse on cultivators, and it has been passed down from the ancestors of my Helian family to the present. Originally, at the beginning of my family's ancestors' practice, they also wanted to practice with other people, but after discovering the loopholes in this exercise, they decided to forget it as long as I suffered from the sin, and not to implicate others. In the past few hundred years, except for the inheritance of a refining weapon, I have not found any other cultivation methods, and because of the original promise, this refining weapon was passed on to the Gu family for safekeeping, which is not to put eggs in one basket. It's a pity that for so many years, no one in the family has the talent for refining, and there are too many spiritual materials needed for refining, and our small Helian family can't supply it, so it can only be regarded as chicken ribs. Who knew that this would also bring disaster to the Gu family, hey. ”

After sighing for a while, Helian Jun said again: "Originally, when I first stepped into the cultivation, I still wanted to bring the ghost of the Gu family's sister to my city lord's mansion, but I was afraid of startling the snake, and I didn't have the skills of a ghost monk, so I could only seal the house and prevent others from disturbing the Gu family's sister's sleep." ”

Qin Guan also sighed, he didn't expect the Helian family and the Gu family to have such a relationship, but unfortunately Gu Weirui's father suddenly suffered an accident, and he didn't even have the opportunity to leave a last word to Gu Weirui, otherwise Gu Weirui would not have distrusted the big clans in the Star City and resisted the pressure alone, and he would not have died because of the thief's concern.

The three of them said something else, and Qin Guancai and Helian father and son said goodbye and returned to the Gu family with everyone. When she arrived at Gu's house, Gu Weirui led the cranes out to welcome Qin Guan's arrival, Qin looked at Gu Weirui hanging in the air, and didn't know how to tell her what happened back then. Gu Weirui saw that Qin Guan's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked him what happened, Qin Guan shook his head, signaled her to wait a while, and ordered everyone to go back to rest, while he himself took Gu Weirui into the house in the front yard.

Entering the room, Gu Weirui didn't wait for Qin Guan to sit down, so she hurriedly asked, "Senior brother, what happened?

Qin Guan was silent for a moment and said, "Senior sister, I went to the City Lord's Mansion today and learned about an old past, which is also related to you. Then he told Gu Weirui what Helian Jun told him one by one. After Gu Weirui listened, the translucent spirit body rippled, this was unable to maintain the figure, Qin Guan hurriedly said: "Cold for eternity, everything is especially quiet, the heart should be quiet, look at me alone, the heart and spirit are one, the qi should follow each other, if there is more than one phase, all changes are not shocked, no ignorance, no anger, no desire, no desire, no abandonment, no self." Senior sister, concentrate on your soul, don't break your Dao heart!" Gu Weirui took a deep breath, her body finally stabilized, and said to Qin Guan tiredly: "Senior brother, I don't blame the Helian family for not taking good care of my Gu family, it's just that Senior Sister can't forget one person in her heart. Qin Guan knew that her junior sister love was deep-rooted, and she no longer cared about hatred in her heart, and her obsession only had the word love, and she was only tied to the man named Lu Qingcang. "Senior sister, senior brother promises, I will find out for you whether that person is alive or dead, and where he is. The most important thing for you now is to get through the Wandering Soul Period as soon as possible and enter the Qi Cultivation Period, otherwise the spirit body will not solidify, but you will not be able to stay in the world for a long time!" "The Ghost Dao Monk's Wandering Soul Period is the same as the Spiritual Forging Period before ordinary monks practice Qi, all of which are to exercise the body and strengthen the bones to prepare for the future to accommodate the Spiritual Qi. Now Gu Weirui's spirit body has just entered the middle level of the wandering soul stage, and it has not yet reached its peak, so it still has to be exercised diligently, and the sooner it reaches the peak, the sooner it will be able to practice qi into the body. Qin Guan watched Gu Weirui drift away faintly, and sighed in his heart: "Hey, there are infinite Danqing hands in the world, and a sad heart can't be painted." ”
