Chapter 206
The day after tomorrow)
Chapter I
When he received Jiang Ying's news, he was so happy that he hurriedly came to talk to Jiang Ying.
"Senior Sister Jiang, you can remember to bring the news back, you make us so worried!"
Previously, Jiang Ying and others learned that Sanqing Zhenren and Poison Lao had joined forces and exchanged information, so Jiang Ying had any questions later, only through Yin Sanzhen and Sanqing Zhenren directly talking, and then Sanqing Zhenren talked to Poison Lao, Jiang Ying himself rarely contacted them.
Xiao Li, as a person who only needs to live well, is even more difficult to say a few words to them, and it is inevitable that Jiang Ying's whereabouts are unknown and his situation is unknown.
Jiang Ying said to him through the voice note: "Everything has been going well recently, Fanchen is also in good condition, senior brother don't worry." ”
Xiao Li said again: "That's good, the Gu Poison Sect has been asking about your news recently, but the Poison Elder came forward for you, saying that he arranged for you to leave the sect to perform an important task, and the return date is undecided, so the people of the Gu Poison Sect and the rest of the sect will no longer doubt you." ”
"yes, I see. ”
"In addition, Yin Sanzhen announced that he was in retreat, which also did not arouse suspicion, but a month ago, Yin Yizhen went out of the customs, and inquired about Yin Sanzhenren's news many times, but fortunately, Xiaoxiao girl brought someone to stop him before he had a seizure, if you finish your work, you might as well think about how to deal with this matter. ”
Jiang Ying raised her eyebrows: "Yin Yizhen is out of the customs?" Yin Sanzhen didn't tell her about this.
Xiao Li responded: "Yes, a month ago. She was ruthless enough this time, she had been in retreat for nearly five years in one go, and when she left the customs, she went directly to the consummation stage of the True Dan, and even the elders of the sect came to congratulate her. At such a speed, I think sooner or later she will be unfavorable to Yin Sanzhen. ”
Jiang Ying was slightly surprised: "Can you have such an advance in five years?" If you have such strength, why wasn't you targeted by the person who stole your cultivation in the first place?
"Ha, you're exactly what I thought at the time, and you wonder why she's not being targeted, right? Sanqing Zhenren replied that she should have taken no less pills, otherwise with her qualifications, it would be impossible to have such a speed. ”
Jiang Yingwan comprehended, and at the same time was worried about Yin Sanzhen's situation.
When you were in retreat, you practiced hard, and after the retreat, you kept an eye on Yin San Zhenren every day?
I'm afraid this person wants to attack a real person.
"She visits Yin Sanmen so often, I'm afraid she has learned a lot of information because of this?"
"You're right. And according to Miss Xiaoxiao's description, when the man learned that Yin Sanzhen was alive and still in retreat, his face was extremely gloomy, and he looked like he was eager to eat people. I also heard that she also has plans to leave the sect in the near future, you should be careful in the Western Little Spirit Realm, don't let her find clues to hurt you. ”
Jiang Ying nodded and said, "Understood." ”
Then he asked, "Who else has come to visit Yin Sanmen recently?" You have broken through with Yin Sanzhen for a long time, except for the soul fire you encountered in the retreat room, have there been other obvious things happening?"
"Yin Sanmen has Miss Xiaoxiao and the senior sister in the door to check it, and I haven't heard any abnormal news yet. However, I think there is a soul fire to act instead, I am afraid that the other party has already found out the facts he wants, but he has not attracted everyone's attention. ”
Jiang Ying said: "Even so, don't you think it's very strange that they just inquired but didn't take action? Could it be that their attitude is like this, and they don't care about the people who use them to restore their original state, and they don't worry about them disclosing things to the public?"
"Oh, junior sister, you misunderstood, my intention to inquire is even clear about your whereabouts, so I have repeatedly emphasized that you must be careful. ”
Jiang Ying unconsciously glanced out, and then nodded: "Understood, we will be careful." ”
After that, Xiao Li began to inquire about Fan Chen's specific situation, and also asked her about the progress of her sword practice. The two chatted for a while before they exchanged drugs and talked to her.
Jiang Ying asked him if he had found out how Xiao Li's dantian defect came from.
The poisonous old man was silent for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it's not artificial." ”
"Huh?"
"It should be caused by the pill. ”
"This?"
Poison Lao said: "The dantian is damaged, and the pain caused to the monk is great, these days I have asked Brother Xiao to cooperate, let me try all kinds of spells, but he is aware of it every time the power enters the dantian, and once the spell is activated, he will be extremely painful, and he will not be able to act without knowing it." ”
"What if he's unconscious?"
"The result is the same. And if he is completely unconscious and unable to wake up, he should be aware of it, but he knows that he has never experienced such a thing, so I think it is very likely that the other party will use an elixir with analgesic effect to gradually achieve this effect. ”
Jiang Ying thought about it, and always felt that the manpower required to achieve the effect with the pill was too large, and the procedure must not be simpler than a single attempt.
However, if you do use manpower, it is very easy to attract the attention of the parties. Putting Xiao Li aside, how could they hide it from Yin Sanzhen's eyes? If they wanted to make Yin Sanzhen unable to detect it, they would at least cultivate to be a Yuanying. But there are not many cultivators in the Yunshan Sect, only a handful, if it was really those people who did it, now that Yin Sanzhen was able to break through, it was impossible for them to be so calm.
Could it really be an elixir?
"What kind of elixir can achieve such an effect?"
"With Brother Xiao's cultivation, any better pill can have this miraculous effect. But if it is Yin Sanzhen, it must be a high-grade pill or above, and it needs to be taken for many years to have this effect. ”
Jiang Ying listened: Yin Sanzhen is not a person who relies on pills, and the situation that can use such pills is probably when he is seriously injured.
Is it a healing pill?
In this way, it is indeed not easy to arouse suspicion.
"What poison elder means is that they have been replaced with pills, or they have been mixed with corresponding medicines in the pills, slowly corroding their dantian?...... But after that, they couldn't get a glimpse of the abnormality of the dantian, and it seemed that there should be a hidden formation technique to cover it up. ”
The poisonous old man snorted coldly and said, "The later formation technique does not harm the dantian, and it is much easier to cast it." For example, with your Qi cultivation practice, I want to unknowingly lay a formation technique on you, and I can do it by just patting you on the shoulder, and you won't know it at all. In the same way, if the pill can successfully harm the dantian, the other party only needs to do a simple physical communication with the other party at a random time before and after taking the pill, and then he can set up a magic circle and put an end to the self-examination of the victim. ”
Jiang Ying listened: "In this way, anyone may be placed in the magic circle without knowing it." ”
"Yes. ”
"And after each large-scale competition of the sect, the winning disciples can directly meet the elders of the sect and even the sect master, if they are the casters......"
"Not bad. ”
Jiang Ying's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked Xiao Li: "Did Senior Brother Xiao have a similar experience back then?"
Xiao Li said: "In the years when we started, we frequently won the first place in the sword test, and there are too many such experiences, and we have also investigated, but there is no clear direction. ”
Jiang Ying knew that only Yin Sanzhen was left with hope of finding out who was behind the scenes.
At this time, the poisonous elder said again: "It seems that there are new victims recently. ”
"Huh?"
"You should know that man, too. ”
“...... Who?"
"A sword cultivator named Tong Wanling. ”
“......”
Jiang Yingzhen was surprised: Tong Wanling?
Isn't that the young girl I met that day?
"She and Senior Brother Xiao Li came out of Baiyun Peak together, and her talent is indeed superior...... She won't be able to advance lately?"
Xiao Li accosted on the side: "Yes." Ever since I met Baiyun Peak that day, she had come to discuss swordsmanship with me from time to time, and one day she muttered that her cultivation had also encountered a bottleneck, and I was sensitive to this matter, so I should let her pay attention. ”
Jiang Ying asked, "Later, did you persuade her to accept the examination of Sanqing Zhenren or Poison Elder?"
"Yes, she came, but the question is......" He hesitated as he spoke, as if he didn't know how to describe it.
The poisonous elder took his words and said: "She didn't have obvious dantian abnormalities, after Sanqing explored, she found a very small hole, which was really far away from Yin Sanzhen or Xiao Li. ”
After a pause, he continued: "This is the fundamental basis for me to suspect that the other party is using drugs instead of doing it directly." I'm looking for her elixir right now. ”
Jiang Ying was horrified in his heart, he didn't expect such a twist.
"But why did they attack the young disciples, what did they want......
Originally, the phenomenon of being hindered in cultivation only appeared in the foundation building dao people or Jindan Zhenren, and never appeared in the young disciples who cultivated qi.
At that time, Jiang Ying and Yin Sanzhen also speculated that the other party's theft of cultivation was due to the use of a powerful and forbidden magic circle, and they needed to use their power to operate on their behalf. But now the other party doesn't even let go of the disciples who are refining qi and cultivating, why is this?
Even the Mingyue Sect, which had long since been destroyed in the Western Spirit Realm, had also used the power of cultivators above the Taoist level, and she had never heard of any sect that would hinder the cultivation of Qi refining disciples.
She was confused by herself, and the poisonous old man broke the mystery: "When a person is unscrupulous, he must be at the end of the road." In my opinion, this is because they are in a hurry, and the power they can use is getting less and less, so they extend their claws to younger disciples with higher talents and faster cultivation. ”
"So for the Western Little Spirit Realm, which also has this phenomenon, what does the poisonous elder think?"
"A nest of snakes and rats...... You say you suspect that someone is picking cultivators in your outside realm?"
"Hmm. ”
"Including the same is true of Little Brother Xiao's field?"
"This is just my personal speculation, I don't know what Senior Brother Xiao's dynasty is, and I dare not assert it. ”
"It doesn't matter. Your speculation is very interesting. Poison Lao snorted coldly: "If this is the case, from today onwards, we can investigate the four small spirit realms as a whole.
In recent years, I have learned a little about the history of the four minor spirit realms, and I have learned that they are in different locations, but they have very similar modes of operation.
It's no coincidence that they are so similar, maybe they were one, or maybe they were one until now, but we look at them separately. ”
Jiang Ying nodded silently: It's not impossible.
The poisonous elder said again: "Recently, if you have time, you might as well investigate in the Western Little Spirit Realm." Some time ago, the record book of the affairs of the Western Minor Spiritual Realm that you mentioned was not detailed enough, and I found a detailed historical narrative of the Eastern Minor Spiritual Realm here, but there was a page missing in front of it, so you searched in the Western Minor Spiritual Realm to see if there was also a missing phenomenon. ”
Jiang Ying nodded: "Understood." "In this way, I'm afraid there is no way to find the poison elder and Sanqing Zhenren to come to help her, she can only rely on Yin Sanzhen and a few sword spirit seniors.
However, the progress made by the poisonous elder is not small, and continuing to investigate may be greater than the gains from their trip, so she has nothing to regret, and after exchanging some information with each other, she cut off contact.
"Talked?"
Yin Sanzhen waited for her in the room, and made some pre-war preparations by the way.
Jiang Ying nodded, and relayed the news he got from the poisonous elder to the real person, and the real person listened to it, his face was heavy: "You mean, my pill has been replaced, or it has been secretly manipulated?"
Jiang Ying nodded again: "The poison of the real person's pill is not easy to investigate, and now I am investigating the pill of Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Sister Tong Wanling, I hope they can get the results as soon as possible." ”
"Tong Wanling?"
"Hmm. It was the little junior sister who helped me in the square during the sword test that day, and she also had a similar problem, but the situation is relatively minor at present. She told Tong Wanling again.
After hearing this, Yin Sanzhen gritted his teeth: "Even the young disciples are not spared, is this Yunshan Sect going to destroy itself?!"
Jiang Ying sighed helplessly, her mind was full of thoughts, extremely confused, and she couldn't say why for a while.
In the end, he still felt that it was a big deal to investigate the pill, so he asked Yin Sanzhen if he had ever taken a certain type of pill.
"Yes. Back then, when I competed with Yin Yi, Zeng's vitality was damaged, so I took the pill for a period of time, and then gradually the problem of difficulty in cultivating was difficult to advance. ”
"I don't know if there is any pill left now?if there is, it may be transferred to Yu Poison Lao, his poison technique can find problems that ordinary monks can't find, I think it is also because of this that the Yunshan Sect has excluded the Gu Poison Sect. ”
Yin Sanzhen thought carefully for a while, nodded and said, "Only one category is left, I will let Xiaoxiao send it." ”
"So where did those pills come from? Did the real person buy them themselves, or did they ......?"
Yin Sanzhen suddenly sneered, his eyes heavy: "Gifted by the sect." ”
Jiang Ying looked over in surprise, she knew what Jiang Ying was thinking, and said without her opening: "The poisonous elder's guess may be good." Most of my pills were given by the sect, and at that time, the sect sent a large number of rare pills and magic weapons every year under the banner of cultivating talents, which was extremely generous.
Not only then, but even now, the sect has such a habit. Therefore, if things are as the poisonous elder said, the Yunshan Sect is taking advantage of this opportunity to silently send poison pills to their selected disciples and steal their cultivation, not only unknowingly, but also let the disciples think that they are generous, and in addition to being grateful to Dai De, they also publicize it to the outside world to attract more outstanding disciples for them. ”
Jiang Ying gasped: the truth was said so bluntly by Yin Sanzhen, even if she had the same idea, she still felt a terrible chill.
If this Yunshan Sect really did this, if she hadn't been harmed by Chu Guangnian once, wouldn't she have ended up in the same fate?
And it was still thanks to Chu Guangnian that she had the opportunity to get acquainted with Yin Sanzhen. If he hadn't made trouble, would she have not been able to discover this trick to this day, and because of this, she would have been trapped in the predicament of cultivation until the end of her life?
